Chapter 36: Waiting for the Fish to Take the Bait

Xiao Shengge hid her emotions, she was like a mirror, obviously bright and clean, but she was not transparent and could not see the back.

Xuan'er couldn't guess Xiao Shengge's heart, and she couldn't think of some abnormalities that happened to Xiao Shengge, such as a big change in personality overnight.

Xuan'er couldn't find any similarity with the previous young lady in Xiao Shengge, it was more appropriate to say that her personality had changed greatly, but it was better to say that she had changed her soul.

An innocent child, who witnessed the death of his mother, was missing the most important part of his life overnight and became as he is now...... Cold.

Xiao Shengge closed the door, just like she closed her emotions, isolating herself from the outside world. Xuan'er glanced at the closed door and sighed deeply, with some helplessness and distress in her eyes.

......

Xiao Shengge stood by the window lattice, there was no emotion in her eyes, and those complicated emotions disappeared without a trace.

It was already evening at this moment, and the red glow stained half the sky, casting a thin veil on her face, and the long curly eyelashes left shadows under the eye sockets, like a dream.

The fiery red color shone on her body, and it still looked cold and prohibitive.

"I've seen the eldest lady. Xuan'er's voice outside came into Xiao Shengge's ears, although it was not big or small, it was just for the people in the room to hear, and after thinking about it, Xuan'er was talking to Xiao Shengge and asked her to get ready.

A touch of boredom flashed in Xiao Shengge's eyes, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, but he couldn't smile at the bottom of his eyes. Except for the day she returned home, her good sister didn't trouble her, couldn't she help it after all?

When Xiao Shengge turned around, the aura on his body completely changed, no longer cold, but more harmless and innocent.

She opened the door and said with a smile, "Why is my sister here?"

"Bold! Why doesn't the second lady salute when she sees the eldest lady?!" Ling Yanglu's personal maid Ju'er called to Mo Yu, with a high toe and a master's demeanor.

"Oh, how can my sister's maids be rude? I don't know how to talk to my master? Throughout the ages, they have been all respectful and humble, when did they become the age wheel? If you want to salute, it's also your sister's line, sister, are you right about what your sister said?"

Xiao Shengge glanced at Ju'er and opened his mouth lightly, but what he said was reasonable, leaving no room for others to explain.

Ju'er thought that as soon as she said this, she would kneel down and salute as always, looking like she dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, but Ju'er didn't expect that Xiao Shengge not only didn't salute, but also refuted her.

Ju'er's whole person was stunned, and Ling Yanglu was the same, she didn't expect that Miss Waste, who didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere before, would become so strong.

"You ......" Ling Yanglu thought of something, and said with a smile, "What if it's a concubine? Is it just an unfavored young lady? You still want Miss Ben to salute you? Even if you have been favored by His Royal Highness King Qi? After disappearing for so long, who do you think will remember your existence?"

Ling Yanglu glanced at Xiao Shengge, raised her chin slightly, and a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes, "And Miss Ben is the number one talented woman in the capital, a talented girl named by the emperor himself." ”

Ling Yanglu bit the word "pro-seal", the meaning is self-evident, she may be so angry that she has no reason, and she thinks of what to say.

When Xiao Shengge heard "the first talented woman in the capital", he couldn't help but feel that Ling Yanglu was hopelessly thick-skinned, and he was also brainless. Ling Yanglu didn't want to think about how this "No. 1 talented woman in the capital" came about.

Xiao Shengge knew that now was not the time to tear his face with Ling Yanglu, "Since my sister is the 'No. 1 talented girl in the capital', this etiquette sister should know better than anyone else, right?"

Mo Yu's harmless tone made Ling Yanglu even more crazy, and he felt like he was punching cotton.

Ling Yanglu's purpose this time was to humiliate Xiao Shengge and avenge his original revenge, but he didn't expect that not only did he not teach Xiao Shengge a lesson, but also made himself a name for not knowing how to be polite.

"You...... Heh, the road is still long, how can it be smooth sailing?" Ling Yanglu snorted heavily, pulled Ju'er and left.

Xiao Shengge frowned slightly, "Xuan'er, ask someone to clean up here." After Mo Yu finished speaking, he walked to the room.

Xuan'er bowed slightly, naturally knowing Mo Yu's intentions, Xiao Shengge didn't want these "dirty things" to pollute here.

Xuan'er glanced at the room and left.

However, it had already darkened for a quarter of an hour, and there was no light in the room, Xiao Shengge was sitting on the soft couch, and the teacup on the table was played with by Qianqianyu's hand, looking lazy and elegant.

Xiao Shengge seemed to think of something, and the corners of her mouth smiled slightly, but it didn't reach the bottom of her eyes, she hadn't heard of her rumors outside in the past few days.

A daughter who has been missing for more than a year and is the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, how can no one know about her return home?

In this regard, Xiao Shengge was extremely calm, as if this was something she expected.

There is such a father in the family who has fallen into the pit of interests, so why bother to serve his useless daughter? Not to mention that people outside the house know about it, and they can't wait to block her.

After all, there is also a second lady.

These days, the matter of the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion coming back, there seems to be an enchantment blocking the news at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it can't be transmitted. Of course, in more straightforward terms, it is Xiangye Ling Yucheng who is making a stumbling block.

A hint of banter flashed in Xiao Shengge's eyes, what should her good father do if she didn't let the news leak out? She didn't follow the prime minister's wishes so kindly, she just wanted the news to get out! The bigger the trouble, the better.

Xiao Shengge had a plan in her mind, she got up and lit the candle, walked to the desk, picked up the pen and quickly wrote a few words. Walking to the windowsill and stretching out his hand, a white dove with a fiery red forehead flew down to Mo Yu's index finger, waiting for Mo Yu to tie the letter to its leg.

......

Xiao Shengge looked at the direction in which the white pigeon flew, and the corner of his mouth was full of smiles.

After a pillar of incense, in the rain pavilion.

When Ilan saw a white pigeon flying in, he squinted slightly, saw the red hair on the white pigeon's forehead, and instinctively reached out to pick it up. He took the paper from the white pigeon's leg and let the white pigeon go.

Ilan spread it out, raised her eyebrows, and ordered the people to do what they were ordered on the paper.

In the early morning of the next day, several large and small streets in the capital began to boil, most of them were talking about the second miss in the Xiangfu, and there were many versions of the reason why the second miss of the Xiangfu suddenly returned.

"Second Miss must have been rescued by some worldly master. ”

......

"The second lady may be fateful and lodge in one place. ”

......

"Nine times out of ten, the second lady is a heavenly maiden! Otherwise, how could it be that it has been more than a year, and they are all back?"

"How is it possible? How can it be a goddess alone?"

"That's not necessarily, even the woman favored by King Qi, even if she is not a celestial girl, she will not be an ordinary person. ”

There are many people, and some people inevitably think about some aspects.

"Why did the second lady suddenly disappear in the first place?

Of course, there are also many people pointing fingers at Prime Minister Ling.

"A dignified prime minister didn't even pay attention to the return of his own daughter? And it has been so many days that we, the common people, have learned about this. At the beginning, the eldest lady's hand was pricked by an embroidery needle, and it was rumored, why did the second lady have such a big event, but it was silent?"

These people don't know what exactly happened, they only know that the young lady of the Gongsun nobles is going to be spoiled.

Although they know that the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion is not favored at all, as a father, it should not be like this.

Throughout the ages, the royal family, civil and military officials have all put the people first and peace and happiness first. There is such a prime minister who is so cold-blooded to his children, how can the people be convinced?

Inside the Sunset Pavilion......

The corners of Xiao Shengge's mouth hooked slightly, and he looked at Xuan'er with interest.

If you think about what Xuan'er said, how could Xuan'er hold it in her heart for the boiling rumors on the street?

"Heavenly Maiden?" When Xiao Shengge heard the word "Heavenly Maiden", he was slightly stunned, a little funny.

Xiao Shengge thought about what would happen after the news got out, but what she didn't expect was how high the imagination of these people was, and they all compared her to a heavenly girl.

The Celestial Maiden does not refer to the emperor's wife, the Celestial Maiden here is derived from a legend that is three points true and seven points false.

A long time ago, there was a woman, her appearance was overwhelming, sinking fish and geese, she was born with a hundred magpies around the beam, which is an auspicious omen.

Later, it was rumored that this woman was extremely intelligent, and that this woman, like a god, could live forever without eating or drinking. There is also an unusually handsome and dashing, suave man.

He is the one that all women in the world want to marry, and she is the most wanted by men in the world. The two of them fell in love at first sight, the woman helped the man ascend to the throne, and the man abandoned the harem and vowed to marry her only in this life.

The sudden natural disaster caused the country to decline, the people died, the sick and sick, and the two saved the whole country with their lives.

At the end of their lives, they interlocked their fingers and made a wish to tie the knot for eternity.

And their people were delivered, and they regarded them as sons of heaven and daughters of heaven.

Since then, the country has regained its strength and become more prosperous, but over time, the country has changed.

And the people believe in the Son of Heaven, the Goddess of Heaven still exists, it is said that this country is the current one, the country of Fuyue.

This kind of legend is not credible, but in the eyes of the feudal people, it has become a kind of thought, and it is deeply believed.

......

Xiao Shengge also knew this story, she thought that she had not done anything to help Fuyue Kingdom, let alone immortality, eating or drinking. But she can make people die.

She was reborn with resentment, to put it bluntly, she is a resentful spirit, and the heroine of this legend is a fairy, and they are completely different.

Thinking of something, the corners of Xiao Shengge's mouth hooked slightly, now that the fishing net has been released, he just needs to wait quietly for the fish to take the bait.

As soon as the fish is hooked, the plan is half the battle.
