25. 25: Enter the palace to face the saint
The Spring Hunting Festival of the 133rd year of the Empire of the Qian Empire may be recorded in the history books, but all this is not what Ning Yutong cares about.
This spring hunt surprised everyone, including Ning Yutong.
When she returned home, the results of the spring hunt had already passed into the hands of the imperial city and various powerful forces, and the eldest lady of the Ning family won the championship in this spring hunt, which made the entire general's mansion jubilant!
"Miss, you're so amazing!"
"Congratulations, Miss!"
As soon as Ning Yutong entered the house, he was surrounded by people in the house, and it could be seen that the people in the house were sincerely happy, but Ning Yutong couldn't be happy no matter what-
Ren Jingzhi.
The third son of Ren who has been living in rumors is really not a simple person.
Could it be that even his weakness is pretended?
"Miss?"
Unconsciously, Ning Yutong had returned to her courtyard, and seeing her somewhat distracted, Huanxi couldn't help but call softly on the side: "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
Shouldn't you be happy and happy to win the spring hunt? Why is the eldest lady so depressed?
"It's fine."
Ning Yutong smiled reluctantly, it was not early at this moment, the sky had already darkened, Ning Yutong knew that she didn't have much time to be in a daze, she would have to enter the palace to accept the reward in a while, and if she went late, she would inevitably end up in the truth.
The imperial city of the Qian Empire is located in the northernmost part of Kyoto, and this vermilion-walled and blue-tiled palace is magnificent and splendid, and it is such an ancient city that has been remembered by countless people and has changed many owners......
The carriage of the Ning Mansion could not enter the imperial city, so the coachman had to park the carriage outside the palace gate.
Ning Yutong slowly got out of the car and stood at the gate of the palace, slightly stunned.
Tonight she wore a pale pink palace dress, her long hair was pulled into a loose bun, and her hair was decorated with blue beaded flowers.
"Miss Ning, please!"
There were already internal officials waiting there at the gate of the palace, and when he saw Ning Yutong's figure, he immediately stepped forward to salute and led the way in front.
Ning Yutong looked at the inner waiter who led the way for her with some surprise, this inner waiter she recognized-Pang Fu, the chief manager of the inner house, one of His Majesty's henchmen today.
His Majesty actually sent Pang Fu to wait for him here? This made Ning Yutong a little flattered.
His Majesty ......
After being surprised, an inexplicable worry flashed in Ning Yutong's heart......
Imperial City, Golden Hall -
"Back then, I and Feiyuan practiced martial arts in the school palace at the same time, and he was always a top skilled, and later, I was named king, and Feiyuan has always followed me in the southern and northern wars, and has made countless contributions, and has saved my life many times......"
After Ning Yutong came to the Jinzheng Palace, he kept bowing his head and bowing, and he was divided. And now, Qin Zhantian did not mention the matter of the reward for the first time, but mentioned the past of himself and Ning Feiyuan in a nostalgic tone.
Ning Yutong had no choice but to listen quietly, not knowing what His Majesty meant by this. And Qin Zhantian seemed to be rising more and more as he spoke, and he kept talking to himself, as if he was completely immersed in his own memories.
Just when Ning Yutong felt that he was about to be forgotten, Qin Zhantian suddenly changed his words-
"I didn't expect so many years to pass in a blink of an eye, and Feiyuan's daughters are so old! Ning Yutong, you look up! ”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Ning Yutong slowly raised his head, glanced at Qin Zhantian, and quickly lowered his eyes.
His Majesty's holy face is naturally not to be offended.
Qin Zhantian, who was sitting on the high seat, was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, although he was over forty years old, he still looked very young, at this moment he looked at Ning Yutong below, but his always majestic face unconsciously showed a smile: "Yutong is just sixteen this year, right?" I think that when your father was sixteen years old, he couldn't catch up with your current majesty, and it was really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves! ”
"Your Majesty has praised it falsely, and the courtiers dare not be ashamed."
Ning Yutong replied in a low voice, this was not her modesty, but she asked herself if she really deserved it.
However, Qin Zhantian naturally didn't know what Ning Yutong thought, at this moment, he just felt that the girl in front of him was not at all different from the rumors in Kyoto - look, how polite, how measured, how modest, and what a capable child! If only I could be a daughter-in-law......
Unconsciously, a certain emperor was thinking a little far.
Thinking of this, the smile on Qin Zhantian's face became even bigger, and the subsequent reward was also going very smoothly, and because Ning Yutong was a woman, Qin Zhantian even rewarded her with a lot of jewelry.
According to the usual practice, after the reward, Ning Yutong should leave, after all, it is not too early now, but Qin Zhantian did not speak, but Ning Yutong did not dare to leave without permission, so he could only wait quietly for the holy order.
"Yutong, you're not young anymore, I don't know if you have a sweetheart now?"
Qin Zhantian's tone sounded very flat, as if he was chattering, but Ning Yutong's heart trembled suddenly-
Your Majesty's meaning is to ...... Do you give her a marriage?
You must know that the king of a country is very busy, how can he have time to care about other people's children's affections, and his parents' shortcomings?
So, when a monarch takes the initiative to ask about someone's marriage or relationship, then congratulations! You will most likely receive a gift from God......
In an instant, Ning Yutong thought a lot, and even recalled all the men of the same age as her in the imperial relatives, obviously, with the status of the Ning family, if His Majesty wanted to give marriage, the most likely thing was to let Ning Yutong marry into the royal family.
"Your Majesty, the courtiers are actually ......"
After calming down, Ning Yutong still decided to tell a small lie in front of Qin Zhantian, but unfortunately, Qin Zhantian suddenly interrupted her and didn't give her this opportunity-
"Ahem, okay, I'm a little tired, Yutong, you step down!"
"Yes, the courtiers are retired."
Ning Yutong respectfully withdrew from the Jin Zheng Palace, but after she left, Qin Zhantian smiled with interest, and whispered to Pang Fu on the side: "This girl from the Feiyuan family is a bit interesting, and she is not small, she even wants to deceive." ”
Ning Yutong just momentarily hesitated and changed her expression just now, but in Qin Zhantian's eyes, she had already seen through her intentions, which has to be said that this monarch really has a pair of eyes that pierce people's hearts.
"Your Majesty is wise, no one in this world can deceive Your Majesty."
Pang Fu slapped a sycophant very lightly, and then whispered with a chuckle: "Your Majesty seems to like the eldest lady of the Ning family very much, and Miss Ning is just sixteen this year, and she looks like a good match for His Royal Highness King Ling!" ”
Pang Fu has been by Qin Zhantian's side for many years, not only knows all the habits and preferences of his master, but also knows which prince Qin Zhantian cares more about - His Royal Highness King Ling, who just turned sixteen this year, is Qin Zhantian's third son and his favorite youngest son.
When Pang Fu ordered him to go to the city gate to wait for Ning Yutong today, he actually had a guess in his heart, and now his guess seems to be really coming true......
Qin Zhantian on the high seat was silent, Ning Feiyuan was his right and left hand, originally Qin Zhantian intended to marry the Ning family, but in the past few years, he had heard many rumors about the eldest lady of the Ning family, Qin Zhantian was a little displeased with this eldest lady Ning who had never met, and after a long time, he broke off this idea.
But today Ning Yutong was in the limelight, Qin Zhantian personally met this girl, what he saw from this girl was not the rumored flying and ignorance, but the rare quiet and calm, this Ning Yutong seemed to be very different from the rumored willful and ignorant Miss Ning.
So the idea of marriage that Qin Zhantian had forgotten for a long time in his heart clearly surfaced in his heart at this moment......
