Early the next morning

The summer breeze is slight, the fragrance of flowers is slow, the lotus flowers in the garden are blooming, and a dry female family likes to visit the garden to enjoy the lotus when the sun is not rising, which is an elegant thing, especially the fourth lady who lives in the house loves this kind of elegant thing, but she has always visited the garden early, and generally rarely meets other people, so today is naturally no exception.

It's just that when they arrived at the lotus pond, they found that it was rare for someone to be earlier than her today.

"Third sister, I came so early today, I'm really interested!"

When Ning Wushuang bent down to pick a lotus flower, a crisp and pleasant voice came from behind her, she couldn't help but hook her lips, and the smile spread to the bottom of her eyes, the person she was waiting for could be regarded as coming, and it was not in vain that she got up early today.

She slowly straightened her waist, turned her head slowly, and her eyes fell on the girl who walked on the white jade board Shi Shiran.

Slender shoulders and waist, a girl with a long figure, wrapped in pink clothes, with a green long skirt, embroidered with clear water out of hibiscus on the skirt, a bunch of waist swelling, more and more her figure is as slender as a willow, there is a delicate posture of the swallow in the wind, the whole person looks like a budding water hibiscus, which is exciting.

"The fourth sister is early, I don't have the leisure and elegance of my sister, and I came to the lotus pond today, not to appreciate the lotus, but to collect the dew on the lotus leaves."

She stretched out her hand and pointed to the white porcelain bowl held by the green waist on the side, as if she inadvertently revealed a green jade bracelet given to her by Ning Dehai, and said softly: "A few days ago, I used tea in my father's study, the tea fragrance is beautiful, faintly with lotus fragrance, and I knew that my father likes to make tea with the dew on the lotus leaves in the morning, so I came to the lotus pond early today to collect dew for my father." ”

Ning Wuyue swept the emerald green on the snow on Ning Wushuang's wrists, and the sneer flashed in her eyes, in the end, she was a stupid person, she only grew flesh, not brains, just such a worthless bracelet, she actually coaxed her to dig out her heart and lungs for her father, it was really a stupid thing, it was really pitiful and ridiculous.

Although Ning Wuyue looked down on Ning Wushuang extremely much in her heart, she didn't show it at all on her face, but said hesitantly in a caring tone: "Big sister, there is something...... I...... I don't know if I should sue Big Sister Sù or not? ”

Ning Wushuang smiled slightly, looking at this appearance, it seems that she has wasted her thoughts, where does Ning Wuyue need her to instigate here, it is a good thing that people don't instigate her.

I was secretly amused in my heart, but I had a sincere expression on my face: "What did the fourth sister say, we are close relatives, if there is anything that can't be said, just say it!" ”

She knew in her heart that she was afraid that she would not come to "meet" Ning Wuyue today, but she was afraid that Ning Wuyue would also "meet" her.

It seems that Ning Wuyue still covets Nangong Yang, and I don't know if I look at Nangong Yang's skin, or look at his power as King Zhao?

However, to tell the truth, if he didn't know Nangong Yang's true face, his skin would indeed be quite easy to make people feel good, and he was the respect of the prince, and Ning Wuyue would be confused by his eyes, which was also normal.

Now that she and Nangong Yang have withdrawn, how could Ning Wuyue not fight for it, in her previous life, this sister who lived as simple as her mother, in order to marry Nangong Yang, the mother and daughter stumbled her a lot.

Ning Wuyue sighed lightly, as if she couldn't bear to look at Ning Wushuang, and said in a pitiful voice: "Third sister, my poor third sister, I'm afraid that you are still in the dark now...... Rumors spread about you outside, especially in the Phoenix Tower, what kind of crooked poems mocking you...... What is the mouth of the green bamboo snake, the needle behind the wasp tail, both are not poisonous, the most poisonous grass is wrapped in the heart......"

Slurred, meaning something: "Have you offended the big sister?" Well, the big sister is quite famous over there in the Phoenix Building......"

Ning Wushuang raised his voice at the moment, his eyes widened in disbelief, and his body shook, as if he had been hit hard: "Fourth sister, you ...... That's not true, is it? You're kidding me, aren't you? If that's the case, my reputation ......"

Ning Wushuang's sad expression and tone seemed to please Ning Wuyue, and his heart was greatly happy, if it wasn't for Dai's early family decision, how could such a handsome person become an unmarried couple with the notorious "straw bag beauty"? Fortunately, God has eyes, and finally quit the family business.

The expression on his face was even more pity: "Poor third sister, my sister knows that you can't believe it, even when I heard about it, I couldn't believe it, but this matter is really true, and it is crazy outside...... If the third sister doesn't believe it, just go to the Phoenix Tower to listen......

Ning Wushuang sneered in his heart, but his face became more and more disbelieving, and his face turned pale with fright: "She...... It ruined my reputation...... How do I meet people...... She and I are both daughters of the Ning family, my reputation is bad, what good do I have with her......"

Ning Wuyue looked at Ning Wushuang's cowering, the harmless appearance of the little white rabbit, and became more and more disdainful, there were rumors in the house that this third sister had changed as if she had changed a person, in her opinion, she was still as timid and useless, and she would only have a white face and red eyes when she encountered trouble, no wonder King Zhao looked down on her.

"Alas, it's no wonder that the third sister doesn't believe it, even I don't believe it either, how can such rumors spread for no reason...... However, there is no wind and no waves, there will never be such rumors for no reason, if I am the third sister, I will definitely find out......"

Her eyes were even more pityful: "I heard that King Zhao and the eldest sister have made an appointment to go to the Phoenix Tower to participate in the cultural meeting today, if the third sister doesn't believe it, why don't you go and see it in person?" ”

Ning Wushuang seemed to be moved, but he hesitated, and only after half a sound did he bite his lip and said with a wince: "But...... But I can't get out at all, how can I get to Phoenix Tower? ”

The Zhang family set up a curfew to prevent the daughters of the family from going out at will, and they are called lady tutors, but these rules are to restrain Ning Wushuang and several concubines, and her own daughters are useless.

Ning Wushuang entered and exited the Ning Mansion, as if he was walking on the ground, but if he wanted to go out openly, he needed enough reasons.

Not only is he as timid as a mouse, but he is also stupid as a pig, and he can't even think of a reason, but fortunately, Ning Wuyue has already seen through Ning Wushuang's "essence", so before he came, he even thought of an excuse for Ning Wushuang, and he happened to tell it at this moment.

"Third sister, why did you forget? The fourth aunt helps her mother take care of the house, you have always been good friends with the fourth aunt, so let her help you find a reason. ”

It's really a good sister, what a good excuse to find! However, since her good fourth sister provided such a good idea, she happily joined it!

So he nodded timidly, thanked Ning Wuyue with a sincere look, and muttered in his mouth: "If Brother Yang really has to marry the Ning family, I would rather be the fourth sister." ”

Ning Wuyue's body stiffened, making an unheard appearance, but her heart swelled, and she became more and more determined to snatch Nangong Yang's thoughts from Ning Wuyun's hands.

"Fourth sister, thank you for your concern, I'll leave first." Ning Wushuang left with a smile.

Ning Wuyue looked at Ning Wushuang, who had left with a thousand thanks, and the evil smile in her eyes was even stronger: Phoenix Tower is not something that anyone can enter if they want to, they need a couplet at the door to enter, Ning Wushuang's reputation as a "straw bag beauty" is famous in the capital, it is obviously impossible to make a couplet, after this incident, the name of "Miss Straw Bag" must be even louder, and she can be regarded as a bad breath for her sweetheart.

And, after Ning Wushuang's trouble, Ning Wuyun's love snatching away is naturally well known, and in order to show her innocence, Ning Wuyun can no longer be involved with King Zhao, otherwise her reputation for misconduct will be confirmed.

When the time comes, yourself

Just take advantage of this to win the love of King Zhao.

Her father and grandmother did not want to offend King Zhao, and if they could marry again, they would be willing, and she could use this to fulfill her wishes.

My aunt said: In one life, you can't help but fight, the third sister is stupid and not worthy of such a talented person, so she will do it for her as a sister!

……

Looking at the two-storey pavilion in front of you, the roof is paved with blue-gray tiles, the four corners are flying, the bronze bells are falling, the black paint on the plaque is simple, there is no gilt commonly used in Kyoto restaurants, and the three big characters "Phoenix Building" that want to break out jump on it, the indescribable wind and flow are free and easy, but the momentum is magnificent.

She looked at the couplets on both sides of the gate and read word by word: "Go to extravagant poetry and books, and debate scriptures with wealth and wealth." ”

Obviously, the wishes of the master behind the Phoenix Tower are very good, but it is a pity that the ideal is very plump, but the reality is very skinny, and now the Phoenix Building has become a place for the family to gather and compare, which is really sad and lamentable.

Ning Wushuang led the two girls to the door, but was stopped by the guard in front of the Phoenix Tower, the guard glanced at Ning Wushuang's beautiful appearance and simple and different costumes, a touch of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he had a little good feeling, and said very politely: "Miss is here for the first time!" The rules here, the first time you come, if you want to enter the door, you need to go to the door. ”

"Starter?" Ning Wushuang raised his eyebrows.

The guard respectfully presented the booklet in his hand, with different covers, including gold, silver and bronze, and said: "These booklets are all on the upper link, as long as the young lady can match any of them, you can enter." It's just that there are gold, silver and bronze in the booklet, the difficulty is different, and the next couplet can get the corresponding gold, silver, copper and jade, I don't know which one Miss wants to choose? ”

Ning Wushuang shook his head and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, I want to ask about that." She pointed to the upper couplet carved on the stele erected beside her and asked, "If you are to make this lower couplet, 'The person who says it is said that everyone is said that it is better not to say it'?" ”

The guard was stunned for a moment and was very surprised: "Miss, that was when the Phoenix Building opened, the Shanglian left by my master, no one has come out so far, Miss, you ...... If it is right, it will be separated from the gold, silver and copper, and the master can leave a unique jade gem and jade slip, and be regarded as the guest of my Phoenix Tower. ”

The guards were a little disappreciative in their hearts, the Shanglian left by their own master can be called an absolute through the ages, so far the literati and ink writers don't know how much people are eager to try, but no one has come out, this young lady's tone is too big, right?
