042 Seeing each other, the difference between clouds and mud
He used a few words like this to cover up Bai Fengxi's embarrassment of kneeling in front of his door, and then he ignored Bai Pengfei, took Ming Shen's hand, and walked in the direction of the embroidery pavilion.
In less than a while, several gusts of cold wind blew, and the lingering autumn rain fell from the sky, and the dense rain twisted the body, falling obliquely, drenching the cold.
Bai Peng flew to Bai Fengxi's side, held her hand, and said worriedly: "Sister, your typhoid fever is not well yet, you can't get drenched in the rain anymore, hurry up and go back with me!" ”
"No, I'm not going back, your brother-in-law is already angry with me, and I'm going to kneel until he is willing to forgive me." Bai Fengxi shook her drowsy head sadly, crying sadly, and the rain slipped down her wet strands of hair, unspeakably embarrassed and lonely.
Bai Pengfei saw that she began to make mistakes again, twisted his sword eyebrows fiercely, and patiently coaxed: "Brother-in-law has said it, he doesn't blame you, stop messing around, hurry up and go back with me." ”
"He doesn't blame me, he doesn't blame me, why didn't he come to see me? I'd rather sleep alone listening to Yuxuan than see me again, I must still be angry with me that day. "Bai Fengxi's desolate cry, sad expression in the bleak clear of the rain, particularly sad and sour." It's my fault, I shouldn't have talked back to him, it's all my fault. ”
"He beat you that day, and he was the one who was wrong, so you came to confess to him?" Bai Pengfei was really uncomfortable when he saw his sister like this, and he remembered his brother-in-law's attitude just now, and he felt a smoulder in his heart.
Bai Pengfei grabbed her wrist vigorously and shouted angrily: "Sister, you have a little backbone, okay?" After so many years, he won't snub you because of a trivial matter, you go back with me first, and I will definitely invite him to your Fengyi Pavilion tonight. ”
"No, I'm not going back!" Bai Fengxi saw that he couldn't struggle, so he bit down on his arm, blood mixed with rain dripped from Bai Pengfei's arm, he couldn't bear the pain, and let go of his hand suddenly.
Bai Fengxi glanced at his brother's arm worriedly, knelt down again, and said firmly: "I will kneel here until your brother-in-law is willing to forgive me." ”
"You're incorrigibly stupid!" Bai Pengfei covered his bleeding arm, roared violently, and turned away angrily.

On the night of Emperor Xuande's birthday, a banquet was held in Changyin Pavilion.
Princess Duan was not grounded for enough time, so she lied that she was sick and it was not suitable to face the saint, and the side concubine Bai was bedridden because of the high fever caused by the rain, so Wen Xuan could only take Ming Shen and a side concubine into the palace for a banquet, leaving Murong Lin to take care of Bai Fengxi in the mansion!
This move not only envied the female dependents in Prince Duan's mansion, but also made those royal wives have different opinions, what will be reincarnated as a fox, will be evil and crooked, etc., the legend is amazing, and even the crime of spoiling the concubine and killing his wife is directly deducted from Ming Shen's head.
———
In the imperial garden, the pavilions and pavilions, the pond pavilion and the water pavilion are all reflected in the lights, the jeweled ladies have been waiting outside the Changyin Pavilion for a long time, they gather in twos and threes, gossip and laugh, cloud sideburns and fragrant clothes, so lively.
Ming Shen made up according to the product today, wearing a brand-new light blue satin woven eight-group cloud goose pattern auspicious dress, the collar and cuffs are edged with blue and gold two-color rolled entwined branches and lotus patterns, the layers are stacked vividly, and the patterns are stretched exquisitely, lining her solemn and calm, but also gorgeous and elegant, wearing jade pearls around her neck, and her head is squirming blue and squirting peacock troll, and the two sides are dotted with round pearl strings.
I saw her smiling in the splendid and prosperous fat powder pile, occasionally shaking her head with the ladies who ushered in the past, or a few words of short greetings and smiles, the etiquette was comprehensive, quite everyone's style, not at all like the ordinary daughter of the small family.
On the other side, several richly dressed ladies of the family gathered next to a cluster of blooming flower beds, chatting enthusiastically, only to see one of the women wearing a lake-green narrow-sleeved silk robe, looking at Nangong Xue with envy on her face, and said with a smile: "I heard that the emperor is planning to choose a side concubine for the two princes at the birthday banquet, Miss Nangong was born in a prominent family, and she was born so beautiful, she must be selected in the golden screen tonight, and I heard that even the handsome Prince Duan is very fond of you, but I don't know Miss Nangong's heart, Who does it belong to? ”
"Alas, Miss Ben, I'd rather marry Prince Heshuorui as a concubine than be Prince Duan's side concubine!" Nangong Xue said with a proud face, and between the charming and charming eye waves, the brilliance was fully revealed.
Today, she deliberately dressed up a lot, a lilac pleated silk Luo skirt, outlining her concave and convex bewitching figure, a purple jacket with double butterflies playing flowers outside, two red gold inlaid purple pendants hung on the cheeks brilliant and dazzling, the rose purple palace flower on the half-pulled cloud bun, but also reflected her makeup as charming as the moon, a pair of apricot eyes looking forward to shining, obliquely inserted hollow pearl jasper step sway, hanging beads and tassels, with her proud head, rustling dance!
After she finished speaking, she greeted Ming Wan who was standing quietly, and said in a flattering voice: "If he can really marry into Prince Rui's mansion as a side concubine one day, I hope that Princess Rui will take more care of the concubine!" ”
Ming Wan rolled her thick black eyelashes, and secretly despised her in her heart, but the corners of her lips still maintained a harmonious arc, and she smiled gently: "That's natural, I just don't know if our prince has the 'blessing' to marry a beautiful woman like Miss Nangong?" ”
Although these words are kind and decent, they are actually meaningful, and there is a faint implication that Gong Xue is not lucky enough to marry into Prince Rui's mansion, naturally, a careless person like Nangong Xue will never hear it.
Ming Shen sneered, glanced at Nangong Xue coldly, saw her smug appearance, and secretly wondered in her heart, I didn't expect that the daughters of the Nangong family were all frivolous and virtuous, but she was still a yellow flower girl, and the concubine was long in front of people without passing the door, and the concubine was short. How to justify yourself?
Hey!
Strange, why is she so unaccustomed to Nangong Xue?
Isn't it jealous yourself?
How so?
She is Wen Xuan's side concubine, so why should she eat Wen Hao's vinegar?
Who wants to marry him is a matter of Prince Rui's mansion, what does it have to do with her?
Ming Shen tried his best to shake off these inexplicable annoying emotions, turned his eyes to look at Ming Wan on the side, and suddenly the tip of his nose was sore, and his eyes were red.
The fifth sister Mingwan is the second relative she has seen since she got married, in addition to the eldest brother, when they are in the boudoir, the relationship is very friendly, although Mingwan is the daughter of Princess Gulun *, but because she is still young, she doesn't understand the rights and wrongs between adults at all, and she is not as arrogant and arrogant as Princess Gulun *, and there is no one in her eyes, so the relationship with Mingshen is not bad.
Because of this, Ming Shen was really excited and happy to see her today, so he stepped forward, held her hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Wan'er, I haven't seen you for more than a year, you have grown into an adult, it is really the eighteen changes of the female university, if I hadn't heard someone call you just now, my sister wouldn't have dared to admit it?" ”
"Sister Wan'er?" Ming Wan raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and her originally pleasant goose egg face was suddenly full of coldness and alienation, and she quietly withdrew her hand, and asked with a cold smile: "Is Concubine Shen calling this princess?" ”
Ming Shen felt her deliberate alienation, and couldn't help but look at the fifth sister in front of her, who had a good relationship, wearing a fragrant satin color woven eight-group python Ji dress on her petite and delicate body, the collar and sleeves rolled with wide peonies, treasure vase borders, all with gold thread and red silk edges, meaning "wealth and peace", and more set off her noble spirit, Xiang Dai several strings of coral pearls, bun and gold silk inlaid with double Luan dot Cui Tianzi, Luan Feng's mouth spit out of the bead tassel like starlight, reflecting her cheeks as bright as a stream, The whole body is full of luxury and royal atmosphere, which is unspeakably expensive!
Ming looked at it cautiously, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it really deserves to be a pearl carefully cultivated by the General's Mansion, only fourteen years old, and he already has the style of being the mother of the house, no wonder the government and the opposition all praise Nalan Mufeng for teaching her daughters well, Princess Rui is dignified and decent, and she can be described as a model of famous ladies!
It's just that if this dignified and decent is placed in front of family affection, it will look extraordinarily indifferent.
Ming Shen gently closed his eyes, forcibly endured the loss and sadness in his heart, and said to Ming Wanfu's decent body: "Duan Wang's side concubine Nalan clan, please say hello to Princess Heshuo Rui, if there is any offense and rudeness just now, I hope that Princess Rui Niang Haihan!" ”
"Get up." Ming Wan looked squarely at this sister who was slightly better than her in any aspect, and the corners of her eyes showed a faint contempt: "Our Dajin has always been strict in the distinction between concubines and concubines, let's take the 'three wives' among the three wives and four concubines, although they are all wives in the main house, they are also divided into three grades, not to mention the children of the big family, naturally they must be divided into high and low."
Concubine Shen and the princess are both from the Nalan family, why do you even forget the simple truth of 'the heir is a big sect, and the concubine is a small sect'? Besides, we have all become the daughter-in-law of the royal family at this time, so naturally we can't compare to when we were girls in the General's Mansion, and now this princess is the wife of Prince Heshuo, and you are just a side room in Prince Duan's mansion, so you are not worthy of claiming to be the sister of this princess at all, and I hope that Concubine Shen will keep this in mind in the future, so as not to lose the rules and be afraid of making people laugh! ”
Ming Wan's big remarks were undoubtedly slapped by Ming Shen in public, and several ladies and ladies who were watching coldly next to her had already covered their lips and snickered.
Ming Shen was concerned about the dignity of Prince Duan's Mansion, so he had to put aside his personal honor and disgrace for the time being, did not argue, and bowed his knees again and said: "Concubine Thank you for the teachings of Princess Rui, you will definitely not make today's mistakes, and you will not lose the rules!" ”
Everyone thought that Ming Shen was in the limelight at the moment, and she might argue with Ming Wan with a petted attitude, but she didn't expect her to be so obedient and soft in public, and for a while, it was unmistakable.
Seeing this, Ming Wan had to let her get up, and she couldn't find the words to continue to make trouble, and her lofty face suddenly dimmed a little.
Nangong Xue had insight into what Ming Wan was thinking, and couldn't help but stutter, and asked Ming Shen: "Hmph, it's just a side room in the house of a down-and-out prince, and I also want to come to the concubine of Prince Heshuo's concubine, and it's embarrassing that my sister is long and my sister is short, it's disgusting, it's really shameless!" ”
Seeing Nangong Xue embarrassed in front of her, Ming Shen was not annoyed at all, only a faint mockery, and said with a smile: "Miss Nangong's words are very reasonable, I don't know how the Nangong family taught their daughter, and they actually taught Miss Nangong so much...... Such a 'general knowledge'! ”
Nangong Xue Xing glanced at Ming Shen with slanted eyes, picked up the rosin-colored golden silk silk handkerchief and pressed the fat powder on the wing of her nose, and said proudly: "Miss Ben is the youngest daughter of the king of Nangong County and the daughter of her cousin's family, although she is not as famous as your Nalan family, but in the end, I am a concubine, and I am always more noble than you, the daughter of the concubine." ”
She said such a thing so proudly, that the people around her couldn't help but "poof", and laughed one after another, Ming Shen couldn't hold back, and the corners of her lips flashed a shallow sneer: "Your so-called 'little daughter of the king of Nangong County', that is, your cousin Nangong Qianqian, is just a concubine of our Nalan family, just now Princess Rui has said very clearly, Dajin has always been strict in the distinction between concubines, the wife is the main wife, the side room is a partial room, the concubine is just a high-level slave, is it worth showing off like that?"
Besides, you are just a cousin for thousands of miles, who gave you the courage to dare to use the surname of the Nangong family to shout with the Nalan family? Isn't it, the Nangong family wants to be the enemy of our Nalan clan? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone whispered, and they all secretly admired this pair of Nalan sisters, who were really eloquent, and they were not fuel-efficient lamps.
Just now, Princess Rui used her concubine and noble status to suppress Concubine Shen and couldn't raise her head, and in a blink of an eye, she learned and sold now, and used this trick on Nangong Xue, and easily regained face.
In fact, it's also to blame this Nangong Xue for having no eyes, the two sisters are bickering, she actually came to intervene without knowing her identity to find fault, she deserves to be deflated!
And at this time, Nangong Xue had already been frightened by Ming Shen's face, she was just trying to speak quickly for a while, where did she think that the family would be implicated in right and wrong, if it was really because of this matter that the Nalan family was suspicious of the Nangong family, then she would become a sinner of the entire family, and she would definitely not have good fruit to eat!
Ming Shen raised his eyes to look at her, and seeing that she was not lightly frightened, the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't help but get stronger, and continued: "Also, as the daughter of a courtier's family, when you see this concubine, not only did you not salute, but instead spoke disrespectfully, I don't know if the people of your Nangong family have always been so unsightly?" Or is Miss Nangong born stupid, even who is the king? I can't tell what a minister is? ”
The royal rules are very strict, even if it is a royal girl, it is a little more noble than being a concubine in the family, not to mention, Ming Shen is still the side concubine of the jade butterfly of the clan, which is naturally much more noble than her Nangong Xue!
Nangong Xueqi's face was red and red, and naturally he couldn't admit that the people of the Nangong family had always been unsightly, so he had to reluctantly bless his body, gritted his teeth and said: "The courtiers are naturally dull, and they are speechless for a while, and I hope that the concubine Niangniang will forgive the courtiers for the sake of the courtiers' young and ignorant nature!" ”
Ming Shen sneered, and before she could speak, a cold and alienated indifferent voice came from behind her, accompanied by a crisp sound of ringing, which sounded particularly pleasant!
"Shen side concubine Niangniang still has to be forgiving and forgiving, Mu Qiang is broken, you are so aggressive, you really lose the identity of the daughter of the general, and even lose the dignity of the concubine of the king"
