127. 127: That little thing in the Yan Palace
On the morning of early winter, there was still a thin layer of hoarfrost on the ground, and Ning Yutong, who got up early, pulled up his long hair and wore the close-fitting suit he brought from Ning Mansion to practice martial arts in the spacious courtyard of Jinchun Garden.
It's her habit, and it's still so here.
On the top of the Wangfu attic not far from Jinchun Garden, a cyan figure was standing there alone, quietly staring at Ning Yutong in the courtyard.
"Qin Shuang."
A familiar male voice suddenly came from behind him.
Qin Shuang didn't look back, and said in a low voice: "Qin Feiyang, why didn't you accompany the prince to the court?" β
"The prince doesn't have to go to court today."
Qin Feiyang replied, and a dodge was already standing side by side with Qin Shuang, and his gaze involuntarily fell on the courtyard of Jinchun Garden.
"It turns out that you can see everything in Jinchun Garden from here."
Qin Feiyang's tone was a little surprised, he just inadvertently saw Qin Shuang standing in this attic in a daze, he wanted to come up and say hello, but he didn't expect such an unexpected discovery.
This attic existed when the palace was first built, because it was located in a very remote corner of the palace, and there were no courtyards and gardens nearby, so few people came on weekdays.
Hearing Qin Feiyang's words, Qin Shuang still had a cold expression: "I almost forgot, the prince just got married yesterday." β
Qin Shuang's tone was very calm, and her gaze never left Ning Yutong's figure from beginning to end.
And hearing Qin Shuang's words, Qin Feiyang shook his head slightly, although he didn't know the reason for it, but Qin Feiyang was very clear about Qin Shuang's personality, this girl's attention to Concubine Jing was absolutely incredible.
"Qin Shuang, in fact, the master may not have deliberately snubbed Concubine Jing, he ...... There must be some reason. β
Qin Feiyang defended Qin Jinlin in a low voice, in fact, the matter of Qin Jinlin and Ning Yutong last night had already spread in the palace, and Qin Feiyang was also stunned for a long time when he first learned about what happened last night, and he didn't understand Qin Jinlin's intentions at all.
Cause?
Qin Shuang smiled suddenly, facing the rising morning light, the smile on her cold face was with a different kind of charming plumpness.
"I understand."
Qin Shuang just said three words in a low voice.
Qin Feiyang on the side was dazzled by Qin Shuang's suddenly blooming smile, and he didn't hear Qin Shuang's words clearly......
Jinchun Gardenββ
"Master, it's time to go and say hello to the princess at this hour."
After accompanying Ning Yutong to practice martial arts and having breakfast, Yan Huan helped Ning Yutong make up and lightly reminded him.
Hello, please?
Oh, by the way, I almost forgot that I was just a side concubine.
Ning Yutong settled down, and couldn't help but look at herself seriously in the mirror, Yan Huan combed her auspicious cloud bun, and her hair was dotted with a few delicate beaded flowers and two jade hostas, which were still rewarded by His Majesty when she entered the palace a few days ago.
And the clothes that Yan Huan prepared for Ning Yutong were white brocade jackets embroidered with red plums, red and white, bright and shiny.
This kind of dress made Ning Yutong feel strange and familiar.
After packing up everything, Ning Yutong took Yan Huan and left Jinchun Garden and headed towards Jinxiu Garden.
Along the way, all the servants of the palace saluted respectfully, and Ning Yutong and Yan Huan soon came to the front of Bai Hanxue's courtyard.
The Splendid Garden was very clean, and as soon as Ning Yutong entered the courtyard gate, he saw that Bai Hanxue's personal maid was already waiting at the door, obviously waiting for her.
"Concubine Jing!"
Wanyu obediently blessed Ning Yutong: "My master is waiting for you inside." β
Ning Yutong smiled slightly, and walked into Bai Hanxue's bedroom calmly, her room was warm, and she could smell a faint fragrance as soon as she entered the door, in the elegantly decorated room, Bai Hanxue, who was dressed in a white cotton skirt, was sitting gently and dignified at the mahogany table drinking tea, seeing Ning Yutong's figure, Bai Hanxue's movements paused slightly.
is also a white dress, a pure white white cold snow is still beautiful and does not eat the fireworks of the world, and Ning Yutong's white dress is embellished with bright red plums, making her look bright and flamboyant.
"Yutong greets the princess."
Ning Yutong slowly stepped forward to face Bai Hanxue, his mood was calm, and his tone was indifferent.
"Sister Yutong, you're too polite."
Bai Hanxue put down the teacup, her voice was beautiful, and her eyes were full of smiles when she looked at Ning Yutong, but there was a trace of chill hidden in this smile.
"Although there are many rules in the palace, I don't have anyone else here, and Sister Yutong doesn't need to be so polite."
Bai Hanxue smiled and raised her hand, and Wanyu on the side immediately respectfully helped Ning Yutong move a chair: "Concubine Jing, please sit." β
"There are no rules, there is no circle, since Yutong has entered the gate of Yanwang's Mansion, he naturally has to abide by the rules here, and he does not dare to claim to be the princess's sister."
Ning Yutong sat sideways and elegantly on the chair that Wanyu had moved, looked up at Bai Hanxue, and replied in an unhurried voice.
When it is rigid, it is rigid, and when it is soft, it is soft.
In her previous life, she walked in the backyard of King Yan's mansion, and now Ning Yutong, except for Qin Jinlin, no one can cause her to have too many emotional fluctuations.
For everything, she can handle it calmly, including Bai Hanxue, including Mrs. Li, including those women who are about to marry into the Yanwang Mansion......
In the room of Bai Hanxue, Ning Yutong didn't stay long, and when he left, at the gate of the Splendid Garden, Ning Yutong met Mrs. Li who had just come to ask for peace.
This is Qin Jinlin's first woman, and she is also the only lady in Yanwang's Mansion except for Bai Hanxue and Ning Yutong.
When they met on a narrow road, Ning Yutong couldn't help but smile and nod at her when she saw Li Cailan's gentle face that she hadn't seen for a long time, and Mrs. Li was stunned for a moment, seemed to react, and immediately greeted Ning Yutong respectfully: "Cailan asks Concubine Jing for peace." β
"No courtesy."
Ning Yutong strode forward and supported Mrs. Li's thin body: "Mrs. Li, you should take good care of your body." β
After whispering a word in Mrs. Li's ear, Ning Yutong left with Yan happily.
Miss Ningda......
Mrs. Li took a deep look at the direction Ning Yutong had left, and only after a while did she come back to her senses and slowly walked into the gate of the Splendid Garden......
With Ning Yutong marrying into the Yanwang Mansion, the backyard of the Yanwang Mansion, which was quiet and excessive, has finally become a little lively, of course, these bustles have nothing to do with Ning Yutong, and it can be said that it has something to do with her-
Since Concubine Jing entered the door, the maids in the courtyard have gradually discovered one thing, except for the wedding night and the day of return, the prince has never appeared in the Yanwang Mansion with Concubine Jing.
Every time the prince held a banquet in the mansion, Concubine Jing would feel unwell. And every time Concubine Jing walked around in the backyard of the palace, she would intentionally or unintentionally avoid the prince's activity area, and even later, the prince simply walked around Jinchun Garden......
This matter has become the most hotly discussed strange phenomenon in the Yanwang Mansion, and no matter what the people say, Qin Jinlin should not have heard anything, Ning Yutong is still going her own way, as long as there is a place for Qin Jinlin, she will not appear.
These two people seemed to be competing, and neither of them would give in to the other.
December 16, today is Qin Jinlin's birthday.
In the morning, a layer of fine snowflakes floated in Kyoto, and it was cold in winter, but today's Yanwang Mansion was particularly lively, and the people of Yanwang's faction gathered together today to congratulate Qin Jinlin on his birthday.
Standing in the courtyard of Jinchun Garden, Ning Yutong could faintly hear the noise coming from the front yard.
"Master, today's dinner ......"
Evian put a cloak on Ning Yutong, and couldn't help but ask after hesitating. After all, His Royal Highness King Yan's henchmen will be present tonight, if his master does not appear, I wonder if there will be any bad rumors in Lu Dao......
"It's enough to have a princess tonight, and the Yan Wangfu only needs a hostess, which is enough."
Ning Yutong smiled at Evian with his head sideways, and casually handed the cloak back into Evian's arms: "I'm not as weak as you think, this cold is nothing to me." β
While speaking, Ning Yutong had already come to the middle of the courtyard with an arrow step, and casually raised his thunderbolt whip, the long whip flew over, and Ning Yutong's beautiful figure also shone brightly under the blue sky and white snow......
"Zheng!"
With a sudden sound, a sword with a cold light fluttered around Ning Yutong's thunderbolt whip with a cold wind.
"Look at the sword!"
The elegant male voice came with a fierce sword aura.
Ning Yutong's hand swirled quickly, and the thunderbolt whip flipped up, forcing away the entanglement of the sword, and the whip and the sword, one rigid and one soft, were constantly intertwined in mid-air, constantly entangled, and the last was still the winner. The long whip wrapped around the blade of the sword, and the sword pointed in front of Ning Yutong-
"I lost."
Ning Yutong stopped and looked indifferently at the man holding the sword in front of him.
Dressed in white, the elegance is peerless.
"Niangniang's martial arts are indeed extraordinary, it is someone who loses."
Bai Hanshu smiled at Ning Yutong, and the sword in his hand was slightly on one side, and he immediately broke away from the entanglement of the thunderbolt whip.
Ning Yutong's eyes narrowed, it was only a short fight just now, but Bai Hanshu gave her a very strange and subtle feeling, this man's aura was very powerful, faint, and unpredictable.
"Mother, don't you want to invite me in to sit down?"
After putting away the long sword, Bai Hanshu still looked at Ning Yutong gently, and his tone was also very peaceful.
"Lord Bai, please come in! Evian, you go make a pot of tea. β
Ning Yutong turned to the side and made a gesture of please, while Evian on the side heard Ning Yutong's command and immediately turned around and left quickly.
Bai Hanshu followed Ning Yutong's footsteps into her room, and the room was still cold and deserted, without too many gorgeous decorations.
"Niangniang, this room is really special." Bai Hanshu glanced at Ning Yutong's room and spoke lightly again. Ning Yutong glanced at Bai Hanshu, turned around and sat on the wooden chair on the side, and then asked in a calm voice, "Lord Bai won't come to visit the room, right?" β
"Ugh."
Bai Hanshu elegantly sat on another chair not too far away from Ning Yutong: "If I say that I came to visit Niangniang, I don't know if you believe it?" β
"Hmm."
Ning Yutong smiled slightly: "What do you say?" β
"Huh."
Bai Hanshu smiled meaningfully, and slowly took out a brocade bag from his arms: "I heard from my sister, Niangniang has been in poor health recently, and there is a peace charm here to keep her healthy, and I hope Niangniang will not dislike it." β
Peace charms?
Ning Yutong's eyes flashed: "Is this the princess's kindness, or is it yours Lord Bai?" β
