Chapter 63: Self-recommendation

Zhou Mansion.

After dinner, Zhou Qianru played the piano in the courtyard. It was Ye Xiaoyan who played the "Fisherman's Q&A" that day. Although she had only heard it once, the tune was clear and easy to remember. She couldn't remember a few of them clearly, so she composed her own music to make up for them.

She looked at the music she had composed and felt proud. After she returned to Zhou's Mansion that day, she flipped through all the books about the piano score, but she didn't see the sheet music for this tune, and she didn't know where Ye Wanyan learned that slut! Zhou Qianru hated.

Since there was no record on the score, she readjusted the tune and re-composed it. A hint of a secret smile crossed the corner of Zhou Qianru's mouth, so this song was composed by her.

She also gave the song a name, "Asking the Moon". She wants to participate in this "Talent Girl Meeting" with this song, and when the time comes, she will definitely be a blockbuster.

It's just that the "Talent Girls Club" is different from the "Talent Poetry Club".

"Talent Poetry Club" is to sign up, anyone who wants to show themselves can sign up, regardless of status, regardless of high or low.

The "Talent Girls Club" is an invitation, and only those who are invited can participate. And the people who were invited were all nobles from Beijing. Either the daughter of a minister or the daughter of a family. Her father used to be an official from Sipin, but he is deceased, and who would think of inviting her.

Zhou Qianru sighed, thinking about how to be invited.

Mo Hua came over with a bowl of medicine and said, "Miss, it's time to drink medicine." ”

Since Zhou Qianru returned to Zhou's house that day, she was unwell, with chest and flank swelling and pain, and dizziness. I invited a doctor to see a doctor, saying that it was not tight, but the liver qi was uncomfortable, so I prescribed a side medicine and took it every day.

Zhou Qianru frowned when she looked at the black medicinal juice, and said, "My body is already well, so I don't need to drink medicine anymore." ”

Mo Hua persuaded: "This is the last pair, so you can drink it, Miss." After drinking this pair, you won't have to drink it again tomorrow. ”

Zhou Qianru thought about it, took the medicine bowl, and drank it in small sips.

Mo Hua immediately handed water to the young lady to rinse her mouth, and handed over the candied fruit, asking the young lady to suppress the bitter taste in her mouth, and then Zhou Qianru felt better.

The ink painting said: "I heard from outsiders that Princess Xiao and Xiao Shizi have entered Beijing. At noon today, the four princes went to the city gate to greet them, and later went to the royal palace. ”

Hearing the word "prince", Zhou Qianru felt a prickly in her heart. She was originally good in the Xuanwang Mansion, but it was the slut who drove her away. There is also a cousin, who doesn't care about family affection at all, and is in cahoots with that slut.

Zhou Qianru gritted her teeth with hatred.

"Miss." Mohua shouted.

Zhou Qianru took a deep breath, let go of the hatred in her chest, looked at the guqin and music score in front of her, and said, "I'll write a letter later, and you will send it to the Second Prince's Mansion tomorrow and present it to the Second Prince's Princess." You do it yourself, don't let anyone else know. ”

"Yes."

On the second day, Jiang Manrong received a letter from the cousin of the third prince, King Xuan. The letter said that she lived in the Xuanwang Mansion all the year round, and in order to take care of her cousin, she rarely went out to socialize. Now that her cousin is getting married, she feels that it is inconvenient to live in Xuanwang's Mansion, so she returns to Zhou's house. And said that her late father, who was originally the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, was educated by poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and music since she was a child, and now there is a gathering like "Talented Women's Association", she wants to meet some companions who also like poetry, calligraphy, etiquette and music, discuss together, and cultivate body and mind.

After reading the letter, Jiang Manrong smiled contemptuously, and said to the person who submitted the letter: "You go and tell the person who sent the letter at the door, and say that the invitation will be delivered to the house in a few days." ”

"Yes." The subordinate retreated.

Nangong Xu asked, "Who recommended whom?" ”

"It's not a recommendation, it's a self-recommendation."

Jiang Manrong showed a look of disdain and said, "Nangong You, that cousin of the Zhou family. was obviously kicked out, and said that she took the initiative to return to Zhou's house. What else to say, how does she take care of Nangong You. ”

Jiang Manrong sneered and said, "Don't mention how she takes care of Nangong You, Ye Wanyan may still be able to keep her in the Xuanwang Mansion." is so striving for merit and favor, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to keep her. ”

"You don't like this guy very much?" Nangong Xu asked.

"Yes."

"Then why did you invite her?"

Jiang Manrong showed a hint of uncertainty and said, "I think Miss Zhou and Xuanwangfu have probably a grudge this week, otherwise she doesn't need to recommend herself, just let Nangong You say it." If you don't give her a chance, how can you watch a good show. ”

Nangong Xu walked over, gently pinched Jiang Manrong's face, and said with a smile: "You, you, I'm really afraid that the world will not be chaotic." ”

Jiang Manrong smiled, and the matter passed like this.

On the second day of the Xuanwang Mansion, Xiao Yuhan came in the afternoon.

Ye Xiaoyan was taking a nap, and Nangong Youye was lying on the side to accompany her. At this time, someone came to report that Xiao Shizi was coming.

"Where?" Ye Xiaoyan asked.

"I've arrived at the gate of the palace." The servant replied.

Ye Xiaoyan hurriedly got up and got out of bed to put on her shoes. She thought that Xiao Shizi was coming today, but no one came to report in the morning, she was sleepy after lunch, and lay on the bed. She also thought that the other party would call someone to come to the ward in advance, and they were well prepared here, but she didn't expect that they would come.

Nangong You looked at her in a hurry, grabbed her, and said, "Slow down!" It wouldn't hurt to ask him to wait a little longer. ”

Ye Xiaoyan glanced at him and said, "That's how you entertain friends?" ”

Nangong smiled and said, "Then what should I do?" ”

Ye Xiaoyan glanced at him again and said, "No wonder you have no friends." ”

In fact, Ye Xiaoyan is not a person who pays attention to these things, but she met Nangong You's friend for the first time and wanted to leave a good impression.

Nangong You was a little surprised when she saw that she was in such a hurry to greet that kid. hugged her and said, "Don't go." ”

"Why?" Ye Xiaoyan was puzzled.

"You just want to see Xiao Yuhan so much?"

"Huh?"

"Are you tired of watching me and want to see other men?"

"Huh?"

Ye Xiaoyan looked sluggish.

"Don't go, let him wait." Nangong said with a straight face.

"No, didn't you say you were very nice, and told me to treat him well. If you don't go out again, what if he thinks I'm not welcoming him and blames me? ”

"What if he blames you?"

Ye Xiaoyan saw that he was pretending, so his tone changed, and he said: "On one side is friendship, on the other side is love, how do you choose?" ”

Nangong You pecked on her lips and said, "Choose you." ”

When the husband and wife came to the gate of the palace hand in hand, Xiao Yuhan stood in front of the door with his hands in hand.

"Why don't you come in?" Nangong You asked.

"I'm waiting for you to meet me!" Xiao Yuhan said solemnly.

Nangong looked at the door, except for Xiao Yuhan, who was alone, there was nothing, and asked, "You came by walking alone?" ”

"yes."

"The dignified prince, being a guest in the Xuanwang Mansion makes it feel like running away from home."

"Hahaha," Xiao Yuhan laughed. He did this when he was a kid.

Ye Xiaoyan looked at Xiao Shizi in front of her. is the same as what Nangong You said, he is indeed a character of Zhilan Yushu, but as soon as he speaks, he breaks his skills, where is there still the noble and elegant aura revealed by his appearance.

"This is Princess Xuan?" Xiao Yuhan saluted Ye Xiaoyan and said, "Contemptible Xiao Yuhan, I have seen Princess Xuan. ”

"Concubine Ye Wanyan, I have seen Xiao Shizi." Ye Xiaoyan also saluted him.

"Xiao Shizi, please come in!" Nangong You pulled Ye Xiaoyan, who was saluting, into his arms.

Xiao Yuhan pursed his lips and smiled, and walked into the Xuanwang Mansion.
