Yingrong (3)
Ning Ji's flower-viewing banquet went smoothly, and the official girls dressed themselves up delicately and brightly, ready to compete among the thousands of flowers.
Ning Ji deliberately called Zhu Yingrong to her, looked at the delicate little girl carefully, and then looked at the girl who looked at her, and felt more and more that Zhu Yingrong looked very pleasing to the eye.
Zhu Yingrong is beautiful but not charming, dignified and well-behaved, and looks like a good wife and mother who can assist her husband.
It's just that Ning Ji looked at Zhu Yingrong and remembered Princess Qi Ji Ruoli for no reason, in her eyes, Ji Ruoli was a good daughter-in-law, and she was very envious of Mrs. Yan at the beginning. And today's Zhu Yingrong has a dignified appearance, a decent family background, a gentle temperament, and is very lovely.
Come to think of it, Jun Ran should like it.
So Ning Ji smiled, stroked Zhu Yingrong's hand and asked for warmth, looking like a loving mother.
When others saw Ning Ji behaving like this, they still didn't understand, thinking that Ning Ji had already fallen in love with the girl of the Zhu family; After all, a prince like Wu Wang Xie Ye who does not have a sacred heart is not the most decisive choice for the official girl, and now I don't feel any regrets about such a result.
After the flower-viewing banquet, Ning Ji deliberately took Zhu Yingrong to her bedroom and rewarded Zhu Yingrong with a lot of treasures and jewelry.
After that, Ning Ji left Zhu Yingrong to have dinner in the palace before letting the palace people send her out of the palace.
At the same time, Mrs. Chu had also received the news, and learned that the person Ning Ji had taken a fancy to this time seemed to be the girl of the Zhu family, and Mrs. Chu had already made a decision in her heart after thinking about it.
When the palace people around Ning Ji sent Zhu Yingrong to the palace gate, suddenly several palace people hurriedly chased after him and asked if it was the girl of the Zhu family: "The slave was sent by Mrs. Chu." When the lady heard that Miss Zhu had entered the palace, she asked the slave to give Miss Zhu a small gift; Mrs. said that the next time Miss Zhu comes to the palace again, remember to go to Madame's palace to sit. ”
Zhu Yingrong didn't expect the people around Mrs. Chu to come, so she cautiously glanced at the palace people who Ning Ji asked to send her; Ying Yingying, the palace person, said with a smile: "Since it is Mrs. Chu's kindness, Miss Zhu will accept it." Seeing Zhu Yingrong motioning to the palace people around him to accept it, the palace people sent Zhu Yingrong into the carriage, and then turned back to the palace people sent by Mrs. Chu, "You are really good at the right time to stop people, even Ning Ji's people dare to stop them." ”
"Ning Ji's people?" The palace people just snorted, as if they had heard a big joke, "This Zhu girl hasn't become Princess Wu yet, why can't Ning Ji be so impatient." ”
The palace people around Ning Ji couldn't help frowning when they heard her words: "The master's matter, you dare to chew the root of your tongue." ”
Mrs. Chu's palace people glanced at them with disdain, as the people around them as favorite concubines, they usually looked down on other palace people, and now they didn't bother to say anything to them at all, so they turned around and left.
After Ning Ji's palace people went back, they told Ning Ji what happened at the palace gate, and Ning Ji's expression became very ugly: "I used to treat her with courtesy, but she was so ......" Thinking of those things in the past, the more Ning Ji thought about it, the more angry she became, Xie Ye and Ning Yanyue had a good marriage, but they inexplicably ruined Xie Xuan; Now that she finally fell in love with Zhu Yingrong again, she thought that she could do a good thing this time, but Mrs. Chu tried to muddy the good thing again.
"Niangniang, if Mrs. Ruochu really wants to get involved recently, what should I do?" The palace man asked worriedly.
"This is Jun Ran's marriage, but it's not her turn to point fingers." Ning Ji frowned and said in a cold voice.
If even this matter can be intervened by Mrs. Chu, she will really become a joke in the palace in the future.
The Chu family didn't want to bully people too much and force her too much.
Ning Ji had already made a plan in her heart, but this time she must not let others stir up the peace.
Originally, Zhu Yingrong's background was not too conspicuous, but she didn't expect to let Mrs. Chu notice it, and Ning Ji felt that she was obviously intentional.
Xie Xuan, the king of Jin, has also reached the age when he should be married, but there are very few women of the right age with the right identity, and this Mrs. Chu is not going to plan carefully.
After thinking about it, Ning Ji still decided to go to Hanyuan Palace to see Emperor Chengji first, and the matter should be determined first and then seek a way back.
However, when Ning Ji was about to go to Hanyuan Palace, she met Xie Ye, the king of Wu, coming in a hurry.
Ning Ji didn't expect Xie Ye to enter the palace today, but she was also happy in her heart; Xie Ye saluted Ning Ji first, and Ning Ji was about to let the palace people serve tea, so Xie Ye said that there was no need: "Mother, you, are you still worried about the affairs of the princess?" ”
Ning Ji shook her feather fan and said with a smile: "At today's flower viewing banquet, the girl from the Zhu family is good. Mother thought ah, you will like it too. ”
Xie Ye hurriedly said: "Mother, this is not what Erchen meant, Erchen doesn't want to marry a wife now." ”
After hearing this, Ning Ji's face changed suddenly: "What nonsense are you talking about!" Marrying a wife and having children is a great matter for people, and it is not a child's play. Since ancient times, marriage events have been the words of the parents and the matchmaker, how can you children be allowed to mess around at will. ”
"Mother, when Yanyue died, you just let me endure it, saying that the Ning family would definitely seek justice for Yanyue. And now the Ning family has long since died down, but who designed Ning Yanyue, that person is still safe and sound. Thinking of Ning Yanyue's incident back then, Xie Ye's heart felt sour; At that time, the Ning family had only made a little noise for a while and there was no movement, and he didn't know what would happen after that.
And for the girl of the Zhu family that he had never heard of, Xie Ye was 10,000 unwilling in his heart.
Ning Ji frowned: "What does this have to do with Yanyue?" The mother concubine knows that you and Yanyue have known each other since childhood, but now that Yanyue is no longer there after all, she must also hope that you can marry and have children well. ”
Xie Ye shook his head with difficulty: "Mother, I am not the eldest imperial brother, I can't do it." ”
Seeing that Xie Ye was unprecedentedly stubborn for this, Ning Ji was very angry: "Xie Ye, it's not your turn to accept this matter yourself." This palace has already asked His Majesty for a decree, and only after His Majesty decrees marriage, even if you don't want to marry a girl from the Zhu family, you must marry. ”
Xie Ye looked at Ning Ji without knowing what he was thinking, and after a long time, he lowered his head very dejectedly: "Mother, son-in-law, son-in-law doesn't want to be like this." ”
"Jun Ran, who made your prince!" Ning Ji looked at Xie Ye and sighed, "You must marry a girl from a family, just like Princess Qi's." Otherwise, then the Chu clan, they don't know how to laugh at you. ”
"Mother, I never thought about fighting for anything." Xie Ye said with difficulty.
"If you don't fight, you die, and only the dead don't need to fight." Ning Ji's expression was sad, and she could only persuade Xie Ye bitterly, "Jun Ran, think about it, if you are a favored prince, who would dare to speak out?" ”
Xie Ye lowered his head in frustration, shook his head but did not speak again.
