"Everyone Aiqing also heard it clearly, Qin Feng said that she should be rewarded. But she is only a little girl who is not more than a dozen years old, and I have never met her. The reason why I should reward her, I want to listen to you in detail. ”

Xie Ning dared to raise his eyes to glance at it, but when he saw the figure in the high place stretching out his hand, he poked at Qin Feng from the direction where she was.

However, the latter was still as indifferent as usual, and as soon as he arched his hands, he replied: "Back to my father, the reason why my son's trip to Yandi to suppress bandits can be called smooth is precisely because of Xie Ning. If she didn't have her careful guidance, I was afraid that when I faced the bandits, it would be difficult for my sons and three hundred soldiers to compete. ”

As soon as Qin Feng's words fell, a person at the table stood up and said sarcastically: "Isn't His Royal Highness King An's words ridiculous? According to what you just said, this work of suppressing bandits is all the credit of such a little girl. Wei Chen has also heard a lot of rumors in the market, isn't this Xie Ning girl the woman who rescued His Highness and the Sixth Highness in Ruyi Fang before? Could it be that Your Highness, you are asking for merit for her in front of the Holy Lord at this time, is it to repay the kindness? ”

As soon as this person's voice fell, Qin Xi's lazy voice interjected just right, "Father, the son has also heard that the third brother asked this Miss Xie to teach riding and archery. But if this religion is exaggerated, it will inevitably be a little inappropriate. Third brother, she only taught you alone, no matter how good you are at riding and archery, this work of suppressing bandits is also the concerted efforts of everyone, and it can't fall on the heads of the two of you in vain. ”

Not to mention anything else, the voices of these two people came out one after another, which made everyone present can't help but think of the strange news that happened at the foot of the imperial city two months ago.

Novelties have always sprung up in Beijing, one after another. It is this Ruyi Fang matter that directly involves the two princes. Xie Ning's reputation as a person who pulls out a sword to help is just an insignificant little person in their eyes, and the common people just praise her twice, but they will not take her seriously.

It was also in Fang Cai that the official who took the lead and His Royal Highness King Xuan pointed out separately, which made many people remember Xie Ning's identity after reminding each other, and they couldn't help but set their eyes on the Jingyang Marquis Mansion.

With the dual titles of honorable and royal relatives in the court, the female dependents of the Marquis of Jingyang entered the palace by the order of the noble concubine herself, and the seats they sat on were also very high. It is a high platform where the imperial concubines are located. It's just two seats apart.

The three delicate girls sitting together were already eye-catching, but at this time, the eyes cast from all directions, for some reason, made Xiang and the others unhappy. It's also a little like sitting on pins and needles. The hall was full of heads and ears. The old lady of the Marquis of Jingyang, Liu, sighed. It's so light that no one can hear it.

On the high platform, the emperor dressed in the Ming Huanglong costume also seemed to notice where everyone's eyes were cast, and the hall was quiet for a while. I heard him say loudly: "Gaohou, according to what they said, isn't this Xie Ningke your niece?" ”

Gao Daonian was named, so he hurriedly got up from the seat and responded respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, it is the niece of Weichen." The young girl is ignorant, and I hope Your Majesty will not be surprised. ”

Xu is because there are too many female dependents, Uncle Hou did not sit with the people in the Hou Mansion, but sat diagonally opposite, but the seat was also very high.

"In this case, shouldn't she also call me uncle? Xie Ning, raise your head and tell me to take a look. ”

Xie Ning raised his head obediently, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, but he secretly smiled bitterly in his heart - she is not the genuine and blood-related Miss Cousin of the Hou Mansion, what kind of uncle-in-law is she in the current saint?

But I can only think about this in my heart, but now in the palace, Xie Ning firmly believes in the principle of doing less and making fewer mistakes, saying less and making fewer mistakes, and would rather be said to be dull and unsociable, rather than accidentally say a word and cause any trouble for himself.

Xie Ning made up her mind, and her words and deeds were more restrained, knowing that the nobles on the high platform swept over her one by one, she still maintained a respectful expression, her body was straight, her eyes were slightly drooping, but she didn't even dare to glance at the corner of her eyes for the full guests.

She didn't pay attention, but everyone turned their eyes on Shainin. Tuo Xiang likes to let Xie Ning go out as a foil, and many of the noble girls in the boudoir here know her appearance. If she was still slightly puzzled by this person's identity before, after seeing her familiar eyebrows, she knew that it was indeed Xie Ning.

The people in her eyes are still like that, and she looks like that, but when she stands in the hall, she seems to be reborn, which is completely different from the impression she left in the hearts of all the women. It is clearly a humble demeanor, but it shows a bit of heroism for no reason, it is clearly an ordinary facial feature, but after changing the rustic dress, a touch of orange and red actually looks particularly pleasing to the eye.

Even Gao Yiyan wiped her eyes with the back of her hand in disbelief, and after taking a closer look again, she turned her head and said to Mama Qin, who was standing behind Xiang's family: "Mama is really powerful, in a short period of time, she has actually trained Cousin Xie to look like this, which really makes Yan'er admire." ”

Hearing the compliment in her words, Mama Qin didn't even raise her eyelids, but said in a light tone: "Miss Sophomore is too famous." It's not that I'm training well, it's just that she cares about herself. ”

Shainin didn't know anything about this little episode. At this time, she couldn't even deal with the emperor's questioning, so where was she still distracted to pay attention to others.

"It's a good little girl," Xie Ning kept two cups of tea with a slight tilt of his head before he got such an evaluation from the emperor, his neck was already stiff, Xie Ning took advantage of this opportunity, he lowered his head and replied respectfully: "Xie Ning thank Your Majesty for your praise." ”

"You are outside the palace just now, maybe you don't know," the emperor's loud voice sounded again, "King An is asking me for your reward in public in the palace." Shainin, I would like to ask you, what do you think is appreciated? ”

Although the other party's tone sounded casual, Xie Ning did not dare to ignore it at all. A companion is like a tiger, and she doesn't want to be angry with the other party.

Thoughts quickly swirled in his mind, but Xie Ning hesitated for a moment. She helped Qin Feng train the soldiers, others did not know, and there was no emperor's will, if she rashly said it at this time, I am afraid it would make Qin Feng's already trapped situation even worse. But if it was just under the guise of her teaching Qin Feng to ride and shoot, it would be really difficult to convince everyone.

Not knowing how to answer for a while, Xie Ning felt more and more dilemma against the eyes that gathered from all directions, knowing that under the passage of time, no matter how much she delayed silently, it was just a futile struggle. (To be continued.) )
