Chapter Forty-Six: Women Chasing Men at the Root of the Imperial City

"I guess Master Li just doesn't know you well, and I don't know your temperament yet......" An Ge came up with yesterday's reason to prevaricate her.

"I can't stand this, and I think every day that he can't do anything! To be more direct, is there anything bad to say? Liu Pingle was not very easy to fool today, and he was about to cry when he twisted his face, "I directly asked Xing'er to go to Guozijian to find him, and ask him what he thinks of me, if it is possible, if it is possible, go to Liufu to propose marriage, if it is not possible, I will ...... I'll give up on him! ”

An Ge was surprised: "Don't you want your name?" He also sent your personal maid to the country to supervise ...... Don't you know that there are men in the prison? And they are all well-spoken readers, in case Li Ling doesn't like you and reveals what you inquire, then in the eyes of others, what kind of person have you become? ”

"But hiding and pinching me like this makes me uncomfortable to death! You know that I just go through my intestines to the end, and I am used to disdaining around the bush, telling me to pretend to be delicate every day, hinting at my love in a roundabout way, and sooner or later I will screw myself to death! Liu Pingle said angrily.

"That'...... We'll have to wait a little longer......"

"Can't wait!" Liu Pingle pinched his eyes with both hands, suddenly looked at An Ge, and said, "An Ge, you are very good at talking, you go and help me test his thoughts?" Of course, I didn't ask you to go to the Guozijian to ruin your reputation, hasn't Master Li often come to our mansion these days? Would you like to find a chance for me to ask him what he means? ”

An Ge is not much older than Liu Pingle, she has no experience in this kind of thing, and she is embarrassed.

After being silent for a long time, An Ge said: "Otherwise, let's ask Yuanyuan to ask, she has been married and understands the affairs of men and women...... I'm too embarrassed to ask if you asked me to ask. ”

"Sister Yuanyuan had already asked me in front of me, but afterwards she told me that Master Li's answer was ambiguous...... Sister Yuanyuan is hot-hearted, I know, but she is not very smart and can't speak. Ange, can you help me test his meaning, okay? Liu Pingle's eyes were full of tears, if she didn't agree, she might really cry.

An Ge couldn't bear to refuse his friend's request in the end, and besides, Liu Pingle helped her so much, she didn't want to help with such a small favor, it was too inhuman, so she bit her lip and agreed.

The next day, sure enough, Li Ling came again early in the morning, and after Liu Yongxu fooled him away like a few days ago, An Ge found an opportunity to chase him out of the back door and caught up with Li Ling.

When Li Ling saw that it was An Ge, he stopped and asked with a smile, "Lord An, but what else is going on?" ”

Although there were people coming and going on the street, no one paid special attention to the two of them, Ange paused, lowered his head and asked in a low voice: "Master Li is a smart person, so I won't say it directly with much politeness, what do you think of Pingle?" ”

Li Ling was stunned, and said in a decent manner: "Miss Liu is naturally excellent. ”

An Ge was a little annoyed that he always said such ambiguous words, he didn't believe it for so many days, and Li Ling still didn't understand Liu Pingle's intentions.

She pursed her lips and looked up at Li Ling: "Master Li, I'll just say it bluntly, you and Pingle are not married, you also know Pingle's family background, and you are also a promising young talent, if you also have a friendship for Pingle, I advise you to ask the matchmaker to go to Liufu as soon as possible to negotiate with Lord Liu and ask to marry Pingle." If you have no idea about Pingle, then please give me an answer today, and I will go back and persuade Pingle to give up on you as soon as possible, otherwise it will be the two of you who will be delayed if it drags on. ”

Li Ling seemed to be frightened, and was stunned for a long time without replying.

An Ge twisted his brows, then let go again, and explained: "Master Li doesn't have to be pressured, Pingle is talented, has a good background, and looks not bad, she doesn't have to be you." I'm going to ask you today, and it's my own opinion, and Pingle doesn't know about it, so no matter what you reply, it doesn't matter. ”

Li Ling's eyes moved slightly, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said: "What Master An said is that Pingle is good to me, I have always seen it in my eyes, and it is not that I don't have her in my heart, but my current status is really not as high as the Liu family......"

An Ge was also relieved when he heard him say that he had peace in his heart, and said with a smile: "Lord Li doesn't have to be presumptuous, you got Tanhua at a young age, and your future is limitless, Lord Liu must also be a person who loves talents, so it's better to ...... Go and ask the elders to probe Lord Liu's tone? ”

When Li Ling heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This is also one of the reasons why I hesitated, I have only been an official for a short time, my foundation is unstable, my family is poor, I have not yet gained a foothold in the capital, and naturally I have not taken my family from my hometown...... I don't even have an elder who comes forward......"

Speaking of which, Ange was also embarrassed...... After pondering for a moment, An Ge said: "Don't be in a hurry, since Master Li has a heart, then I will definitely convey your heart." If Lord Liu is also satisfied with your son-in-law, even if your parents can't come to the capital, it doesn't matter, presumably Lord Liu will come forward to make the decision. ”

Li Ling arched his hand and said, "Then thank you Lord An." ”

After the two separated, Li Ling continued to walk in the direction of Guozijian, didn't take a few steps, but didn't expect Guo Caiping to also jump out of the alley, she stopped Li Ling, opened her mouth and said: "You just said that your status is not high, my father can help you walk a lot less, Liu Pingle's father position is still under my father, you take refuge in my father, isn't it better?" ”

Li Ling was almost frightened, and after seeing her person clearly, he suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and joked: "Lord Guo, eavesdropping on the corner of the wall is not a righteous behavior. If you speak to me openly like Lord An, no one will suspect anything, but if you block me by this little alley......"

Guo Caiping also realized that she was rude, stomped her foot, and said, "Master Li, don't make fun of me, I came up to you today to talk about serious things." I've been with Liu Pingle for a while, who doesn't know about her pungent mansion? Her empathy in front of you right now is all faked! If you marry her, you will suffer your sins. ”

After saying these words, Guo Caiping felt ashamed and embarrassed, and without waiting for Li Ling to reply, she ran away quickly.

Li Ling stood in place for a long time, and finally smiled helplessly and walked away.

An Ge went back and repeated Li Ling's words to Liu Pingle word for word, Liu Pingle was almost moved to cry after listening to it, and he didn't have the heart to write half of the words, so he pulled An Ge and said, "Isn't he embarrassed that no elders come forward?" An Ge, you accompany me back to Liufu, I will ask my father to arrange it! ”

An Ge persuaded her for a while before persuading her down, and Yu Yuanyuan, who knew about it, also followed: "Pingle, it's nothing for you to ask your father to come forward, but it seems that you can't wait to marry him, you are the most favored only daughter in Liufu, you always have to take a shelf, so that Li Ling will cherish you more." ”

Liu Pingle said anxiously: "Then how can I do it, what if I scare him away with a shelf?" ”

No matter how much she persuaded her, she couldn't listen to it, and in the end An Ge had to promise her that she would accompany her back to Liufu early tomorrow morning to explain the matter.

Anyway, her father may not agree, and even if he does, he will have to prepare for a while.

So he waited anxiously until the second day, when Yin Shi had just arrived, and it was still dark outside, Liu Pingle pulled An Ge up from the bed, asked Xing'er to dress her up, and rushed to Liufu to explain to his father, so that his father could find people from all walks of life to understand Li Ling in the court.

An Ge yawned and was at the mercy of Xing'er, thinking that it would be better to go over early, and he could return to the mansion before the end of the day, without delaying his work......

*

Seven Kings' Mansion.

Wang San waited in front of Wanyun's bedroom all night, and now he heard the rooster crow, he couldn't wait any longer, and knocked on the door vigorously and said: "Lord, someone from the palace has passed the word, and the prince must go to court today, seeing that the hour is coming, the prince should hurry up!" ”

Yin Yi is also a person who has been specially approved by the emperor not to go to the court normally, but he also enjoys the worship of this country, so except for the great dynasty he must go to, only when there are special times, Yin Mu will send someone to inform him in advance to go to the court.

At this time, there is often something big happening, even if he doesn't have any good opinions, he is not cared about by the ministers, but as the emperor's younger brother, he must also be present, so it seems that he is not such a bastard...... Uh, or maybe there's a little bit of general knowledge among the bastards.

Yin Cheng heard Wang San's words outside, and quickly opened the door and came out, and hurriedly returned to his study with Wang San, changing his clothes and going to court.

After he left, the maidservant girl went into the bedroom to wash her face and change clothes for Wanyun, who was woken up by such a big movement, and lost her sleepiness, and asked: "Wang San, who is next to the prince, didn't he go back to his hometown a few days ago?" Coming back so soon? ”

"Where," the maid smiled, and said in a mysterious whisper, "The slave and maid had a good time with the little maid outside the prince's study, and one day he got drunk and told the slave maid that Wang San was not going home at all, but went on an errand for the prince......"

Wanyun was stunned suddenly: "Wang San is a first-class master next to the prince, what did the prince do to send him out?" ”

"I heard...... It's to protect the girl Ann in the mansion. The maid looked at Wanyun's round eyes and was about to get angry, and hurriedly said, "Madame, don't be angry first, that little guy later heard Wang San say, what that girl An said was worthy of the prince's kindness, and she was unwilling to accept the prince's kindness, so she sent Wang San back, and the prince seemed to be annoyed with Miss An, and really didn't ask Wang San to protect her again, Mrs. has also seen Wang San in the past few days, right?" And although the palace is still singing in the past few days, the prince has not been out of the palace for several days, presumably forgetting about the girl Na'an. ”

Wanyun also knew that Yin Cheng had always been affectionate and affectionate, so after thinking about it a little, he also believed that he had already forgotten about An Ge's freshness to An Ge a few days ago, so he felt that he was desperate to persecute Yin Cheng at the beginning, and it was right to get the position of this side concubine, even if she had no grace in the future, she would at least have the glory and wealth of the palace, and it would not be a loss.

And the princess of the palace and the other side concubine are all ladies with weak temperaments, and now in the backyard of this palace, she is more and more in charge.

Wanyun touched his hair bun and said proudly: "Wait a while to get my pipa, and when the prince goes down to the court, I will personally sing a piece to the prince." ”
