"What's wrong? Come in. Yingge stood in the room and beckoned, she didn't think there was anything strange.

Meng Yi Ningquan should be the sequelae of his restlessness, so he doesn't need to be suspicious all day long.

Entering the house, the unique aroma of Yingge's house made her feel a lot more at ease.

"I have a lot of winter clothes that I haven't worn, which one do you think suits you?" As she spoke, Yingge took out a stack of colorful satin skirts from the cabinet.

picked and chosen, and finally chose a plain magnolia long skirt.

Yingge said straightforwardly: "How vegetarian, the little girl should wear something gorgeous." As he spoke, he took the clothes from Meng Yining's hand, changed into a lotus leaf-colored robe embroidered with lotus flowers, and compared it to her.

Laughed, "This is good! ”

"Do you need me to help you, or do you do it yourself?"

"Just by yourself."

Yingge nodded, "Then I'll be waiting for you in the outer hall, and I'll be called if there's something." With that, he stepped back and lowered the pearl curtain.

Meng Yining sat on the couch with her back to the window, unbuttoning her wet clothes one by one.

There is also a scar on the back from accidentally hitting the uneven rock in order to save the child who fell into the water when he was a child, which is very unsightly. The eldest sister later tattooed two plum blossoms on her back. At that time, the eldest sister said that flowers bloomed on her body, maybe it was the reincarnation of the flower god somewhere, and she would definitely bless the Bai family with peace and stability. It's a pity that this mark doesn't seem to be able to carry the expectations of the year.

Meng Yining only hopes that the people around her are safe now.

"Smack-"

Suddenly, the window was blown open by the wind.

"Who!" She subconsciously covered her chest, and turned her head alertly to look out the window at the night of the black hole.

Sure enough, there are people!

Hearing the movement, Yingge hurried over, put clothes on her back, and said with a smile: "It's okay, the window is open." ”

It was indeed a little cold in the house, and the cold wind poured in.

Yingge hurriedly closed the window, "I'm so scared that I thought there were assassins, I recently heard that there were assassins in the city, but the palace should be the safest place besides the palace." ”

Meng Yining nodded.

She helped sort out the embroidered lotus gown and pulled Meng Yining out the door. Meng Yining's eyes swept over every corner of the road, carefully observing the expressions on the faces of each subordinate, and did not find anything wrong. Either there is no one, or the martial arts should be much stronger than her.

It's not early in the night, but their game has just begun.

Yingge returned to Jing Zheng's side.

Jing Chi looked at Meng Yining, who was dressed, and suddenly felt that this very bright fabric could set off her slightly cold face. Singing and dancing, Xia Qing changed into graceful and luxurious clothes again, walked to the hall with a smile, and concentrated all her eyes for a while.

And Jing Zheng also looked at her with interest.

Xia Qing bowed her head and bowed, and suddenly looked very dignified.

"Today's husband's birthday, the concubine has also prepared two congratulatory gifts."

Saying that, the two maidservants brought up a pair of crane auspicious clouds double-sided embroidery, and also tattooed with the lotus Guanyin Sutra, and the ruyi cloud pattern embroidered with gold thread sparkled in the palace lamp. "The concubine spent a month, twisted gold and silver threads, and then matched pearls, black jade, agate and other gemstones, and finally became this picture."

Xia Qing looked at it from a distance, unable to hide a sense of pride and pride.

"In addition to that, there is a treasure. It all shows that the beads are matched with beauties, and the swords are given to heroes. The day before yesterday, I got a good bright moon pearl, and His Royal Highness rewarded me, but I was favored, what else do I want? This bead is as bright as a palace lamp, and it is perfect for His Highness, who often fights at night. I sent for it to be set in the scabbard. ”

As she spoke, Xia Qing presented this congratulatory gift from the maidservant's silver tray.

Jing Zheng stroked the pale orange night pearl and the pigeon blood inlaid next to it and laughed heartily. In this congratulatory gift, some people gave the seal of lychee jelly, and some people gave longevity peach glass bottles and bat-patterned bloodstone hollow bowls, but such a matching gift made Jing Zheng happy.

If you say that the most gorgeous sword in Great Xia, it must be this sword. There is a small red coral at the end of each of the hanging spikes in the hole of the sword's head, and there are also three blue-green bright moon beads on the hilt of the sword that sparkle at night. On the spot, Jing Zheng gave it a new name - Mingyue Sword.

"The concubine also has a program to help the fun." As she spoke, Xia Qing took the Bright Moon Sword in Jing Zheng's hand.

Exquisite dance steps, accompanied by the rhythm of singing. Sending it forward hard, the sword was unsheathed, and the appearance of Xia Qing dancing the sword in the shadow of the sword attracted everyone's attention. The long-sleeved turn, virtual and real, light as a cloud. Xia Qing's lips opened slightly, with a smile on her face, and the sword flower was smooth. But in fact, this is the first time she dances a sword, day and night, and she has been practicing hard for several days behind closed doors, just to win applause on her birthday. It also makes some women who don't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth and longs for Jing Zheng's pity to have a long memory. It's not like having a face like a flower and jade to get Jing Zheng's favor.

Xia Qing's rhythm was subdued, and the blade of the sword slashed through the air with a sound like a broken bamboo.

She smiled softly at Jing Zheng, hoping that he only had herself in his eyes.

At the end of the song, everyone applauded. Meng Yining smiled lightly and stared at the bright moon bead on the sword.

The night was miserable, and by the time I got home, it was already dark. On the way home, even Jing Chi sighed that the bright moon pearl was really a rare thing.

Meng Yining smiled and did not speak.

When I returned home, I sneaked to see Gu Zi'an.

Gu Zi'an was dressed in white, and when he saw her coming, he put down the scroll in his hand: "Look at the look on your face and know that it's done." ”

"Linglong Ball and Mingyue Zhu, I almost looked at other people's heads."

He handed over a small kumquat and said, "Have you gone to find the grandmother beside Concubine Fu Zhou Wan?" ”

Meng Yining was happy and nodded.

"Sure enough, it's worth the big price. The grandmother told me more than ten days ago that Jing Zheng brought a new girl back to the house and raised her in the courtyard of the side garden, and the days passed. Xia Qing was furious, although she was rewarded with the precious Mingyue Pearl, how could she let Jing Zheng raise a threat in the palace? Angry, I don't want to dress up, I don't wear beads, and I lose my temper in the house every day. ”

"So, you borrowed Mama's mouth and came up with a plan?"

Meng Yining coughed his throat, stood up and bowed his waist slightly, and said in the tone of Mama to Xia Qing: "How long can the Israeli servant get good?" Color decay and love relaxation, only with virtue can serve people for a long time. ”

Outsiders know that Xia Qing is beautiful and jealous, but now she gives her cherished beads to Jing Zheng, and skillfully casts her favor, which is enough to show that she is different from ordinary women.

Gu Zi'an could imagine Xia Qing's ostentatious eyes, and smiled and sent her to rest quickly.

Jing Zheng and Xia Qing were complacent when they got the baby, but they didn't know that Gao Yi, the housekeeper of the minister Zhang Zhong, reported everything to King Xia.

——————

In the morning light, Zhang Zhong stood in Xia Wang Jingcheng's study.

The sun dyed Zhang Zhong's gray hair.

"Gao Yi, the minister's housekeeper, went to King Lian's birthday banquet for the minister."

"Hmm."

"Gao Yi found out about something, I don't know if the minister is too talkative."

"It doesn't matter."

Zhang Zhong confessed: "King Lian's Mansion got five or six bright moon pearls. Shuchen has a lot of mouths, this rare bead, there are not a few in the entire Great Xia"

Jing Cheng raised his eyebrows, as if he had already guessed it, and then shook his head and said, "Jing Zheng, Jing Zheng." ”

Zhang Zhong had some doubts: "What does Your Majesty know?" ”

Jing Cheng didn't say anything, just remembered the glittering moon pearl on Concubine Fu's waist.

Zhang Zhong has been assisting since Jingcheng ascended the throne, making suggestions for the southern and northern wars. A few years ago, Great Xia captured a small city in Yanrong and wanted to test its strength. Zhang Zhong proposed that a small city that Yan Rong had not long occupied from Beiyang would not all be subordinated to Yan Rong and would not particularly resist the rule of Great Xia, and if Yan Rong rested throughout the country, it would only symbolically resist. Zhang Zhong guessed correctly, and Daxia easily captured the city. Today, it has become an important border town for trade from Bactria to Yanrong.

Wenyou Zhang Zhong, Wu Youlian Qin.

It's like King Xia's right-hand man.

Jing Cheng said lightly: "Concubine Fu also got a bunch the day before yesterday, and the condition is good." She also said that Zheng'er should marry a serious wife. ”

Zhang Zhong comprehended and was ready to send someone to keep an eye on Jing Zheng's every move to see if there was any hesitant behavior. was about to retire, but was suddenly stopped by King Xia.

"Yesterday, Zhou Bin came to the widow to spy on Yan Rong's relationship with him, and asked the widow what he thinked." Jing Cheng didn't look at Zhang Zhong and flipped through the folds in his hand.

Zhang Zhong was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Zhou Binzhao to come to the mouth in a daze: "Recently, I did hear that Princess Yanrong intends to marry King Lian, but it is just groundless, you can ask Yan Rong's envoy." ”

"Listening to the tone of the Zhou family, I thought that the widow intended to marry Jing Zheng."

"This ......"

"I don't know what the Zhou family means, thinking that if you hold a princess, you will win the position of the prince? Or did Yan Rong win them over in private? Jing Cheng's voice was a little disdainful.

"You stand down first."
