Chapter 14 Pushing into the Tiger's Mouth
Following
The sky was hazy, the rain washed away the dust between the branches and leaves, and the smell of earth was everywhere, Murong Qianran leaned on the old soft couch under the eaves, staring intently at the celadon flower pot in the courtyard, slightly melancholy, in response to Murong Qianyan's words, she really became the selected show girl this time.
During dinner, the old housekeeper suddenly came to the Tilting Courtyard, saying that it was the words of the master, and invited the fifth lady to go to the main hall for dinner, heh, she smiled, the dead Murong Tiltan had not stepped out of the Tilting Courtyard for many years, and now her father sent someone to invite her, and it was behind her that she was pushed to the mouth of the tiger.
A water-blue robe, enveloping the delicate body, surrounded by jade belts, extravagant, the hosta is lightly pulled, the tip of the hairpin is as thin as crystal, and it is like rain when it shakes slightly.
Should she be happy? Finally know what a good silk fabric is? Wrong, the person who can enter the main hall of Murong Mansion has a natural identity that is not ordinary, and the old housekeeper who sent the robe is famous: The silk that Murong Tianming carefully selected for himself is actually just afraid of losing the face of the Murong family.
"Old butler, today is a distinguished visit"? Murong walked behind the old butler and asked lightly.
"The fifth lady will know when she goes, the old slave is not good at talking", the old housekeeper owed slightly, and continued to walk in front.
Yuyu pavilion, surrounded by rockeries everywhere, bonsai is innumerable, the huge round tea lake is rippling in the microwave, the moon is in the sky, the soft light is swaying on the surface of the lake, it is very pleasant.
In the courtyard not far ahead, the lights are brilliant, in the house, the maids stand on both sides of the banquet in an orderly manner, and the furnishings of the house are even more rare calligraphy and paintings, extremely extravagant, at this time, the old housekeeper shouted: "The fifth lady has arrived."
Murong Tianran stepped over the threshold elegantly, only to see a middle-aged man get up in an instant, walk in front of her, his narrow eyes quickly looked at her, and Murong Tianran also stared at him intently, although his face was slightly old, but it was not difficult to see that this man was handsome and extraordinary when he was young, she didn't need to guess to know that this person was the unruly Murong Tianming with a group of wives and concubines.
"Ran'er, come and sit," Murong Tianming said with a kind smile.
"The child has seen Daddy", Murong Ran, his beautiful face showed a subtle sneer, if it wasn't for the rain the day before and night that made her hesitate, how could this person in front of her be worthy of her calling Daddy?
The banquet was full of dazzling dishes, colorful, and he drooled just by looking at it, but Murong Tianran did not show surprise, if it weren't for the distinguished guests, how could Murong Tianming have such a big feast?
"This must be the show girl in the roster, right?"
Murong poured out his voice, and his heart suddenly throbbed, how could there be such a beautiful man in the world? The contours of the cheeks are like ice sculptures, the black eyes are unusually deep, the slightly hooked nose tip makes the whole face look so evil, and the thin pale white lips are slightly upturned, revealing a hint of evil smile.
"Daddy, who is this"? Murong Tanran came back to her senses in an instant and calmed down, she was indeed a little surprised.
Murong Tianming smiled slightly: "This is the younger brother of the emperor, Prince Rui, and also your second brother-in-law."
"Ran'er has seen Er~ brother-in-law", Murong Tianran immediately got up and saluted, and when she said the two words, she also accentuated her tone, although she had never been in contact with him, but judging from her experience as an assassin in modern times, he had an indelible murderous aura, and even made her feel hostile.
Lang Xiaoyue's demon eyes were slightly stunned, and then she smiled: "I didn't expect the fifth miss of the Murong family to be so sharp-toothed."
"Ran'er must not be rude", Murong Tianming snorted, waved his arms, and the maids on both sides slowly came to the table with amber wine jugs, poured wine glasses and returned to the same place.
"The old man will punish a glass of wine on behalf of Ran'er", Murong Tianming said apologetically, raised the wine glass and drank it all.
Lang Xiaoyue stroked the green silk hanging down in front of her forehead, and said with a light smile: "How can Xiaoyue be disrespectful, how can you say that you are still the father-in-law of this king."
During the banquet, Lang Xiaoyue and Murong Tianming were polite and polite, and the parents were short, talking about it inside and out, and completely ignoring Murong Tianming, until Murong Tianming's cheeks were slightly red, and he was drunk for three minutes.
"Ran'er, my most precious daughter, if you are blessed to be elected to the palace, you will be favored by the emperor, but if you are not blessed.... But you have to keep the empty boudoir alone", Murong Tianming didn't finish speaking, and he showed an old tearful look.
Lang Xiaoyue is a smart person, how can she not know what he means? "Father-in-law, rest assured, the younger sister of the pouring is also the younger sister of Xiaoyue, how can she be an imperial concubine."
As soon as these words came out, Murong Tianming suddenly smiled, grabbed Wolf Xiaotian's arm and clamored to get drunk.
Murong poured himself into tasting the food, but secretly mocked in his heart, the most precious daughter? Have you ever seen you, baby me? Alone in the boudoir? How many women are in your house, and how many of them have to be left alone?
However, then again, there is one thing, she can't figure it out, it stands to reason that Murong Tianming hasn't seen her for five or six years, and the relationship between father and daughter is even more empty, and he was elected to the palace, he should let himself fend for himself, why do you want Lang Xiaoyue to help me?
