Chapter Seventy-Seven: Temptation
The peddler looked at Zhao Yiling, who was distracted, and only felt very strange, and couldn't help but ask out loud.
Perhaps in the eyes of others in Shengjing, Zhao Yiling is a powerful minister who is unkind and holds the power of life and death in the world, but in the eyes of this trader, Lord Zhao has never changed, and he has become the smiling lady who used to be by his side is gone.
The vendors who set up stalls in the night market are just ordinary people, but the affairs of the Ning family are too sensational, and even these juniors in the market have heard a little about the changes of Zhao Yiling and Ning Juan back then, and they have some understanding.
Ning Juan died, Zhao Youling climbed up step by step, it seems that Zhao Youling has infinite scenery, and he has forgotten the bad wife who accompanied him in the past, but in fact, after so many years, that lady has always been buried in Zhao Yiling's heart.
Not many people know, but not no one knows.
It's really not that the hawker's memory is good, it's that the talented woman is too outstanding, but he can't help but let people take a few more glances wherever he goes, and the impression in his heart is deep.
At this time of year, Zhao Yiling came back to him to buy a few strings of sugar gourds and sugar people, and ate a bowl of hot wonton by the way, and sat there shyly but elegantly alone, smirking, as if someone opposite was really sitting quietly with him.
This habit has not changed for many years, and counting the days, it is time for the lady's birthday.
Ning Juan likes sweets, and is famous in this area of East Street, since marrying Zhao Yiling, he will come to them every once in a while to hang out, Zhao Yiling does not allow it, Ning Juan can buy some coquettishly every time, and then order a bowl of wonton, and the two can sit down for a while.
Ning Juan chattered while eating the candy man, and Zhao Yiling listened to Ning Juan chatting while eating wonton.
Because it is pleasing to the eye, Ning Juan's personality is ruthless and generous, and the relationship with the neighbors is also relatively close, and everyone likes this young lady very much.
It's a pity......
Seeing Zhao Yiling's gaze, the hawker couldn't help sighing, but he didn't step forward to disturb, but quietly selected a few rock sugar gourds with thick sugar coatings of hawthorn and wrapped them separately, and went to the vendor next door to pick up two sugar men and handed them to the little guy behind Zhao Yiling.
"It's a pity, what a good pair, I don't want to make people."
The candy seller and the wonton seller were already familiar with Ning Juan's relationship, so they got together to chat without the sound of coming to the door on weekdays.
"But no, I've never seen such a kind official lady before, she can endure any hardship, she is willing to bear any tiredness, she doesn't want other eldest ladies to be so arrogant at all, and she is very close to us."
"Hey......"
"Good people don't live long."
"No one is here, and I don't know what kind of mood Lord Zhao has every time he comes to eat wonton, and what's the use?"
"You can't talk nonsense."
The vendor shook his head and sighed, and even more shhhed.
Trouble comes from the mouth, Zhao Youling is not what it used to be, but he is no longer the poor scholar he used to be, and he will be punished for talking nonsense.
Fortunately, Zhao Yiling didn't hear it, but couldn't help but walk towards the crowd.
I don't know what I saw.
Wen Yuan followed closely behind Zhao Youling in small steps, but he didn't dare to say anything to wake up, Zhao Youling had already ordered that no one should be disturbed on the nineteenth day of the lunar month, if it weren't for the old lady's strict order that someone must follow, I was afraid that Wen Yuan would be turned away.
Twilight came from beyond the distant mountains, and the colors between heaven and earth shifted between dark ochre and pale cyan.
The market is bustling with people, all kinds of cries are constantly being sold, and the goods on the street are placed from the street to the end of the street, and the people who look at the dazzling array of goods are dizzy.
Zhao Yiling's eyes sank, and his steps couldn't help but hurry.
If the figure he saw in the Drunken Immortal Building may have been because he was distracted and looked at the wrong person in a trance, then the person who was at the candy man stall just now was definitely not dazzling!
Zhao Yiling knew that his idea was ridiculous.
That person was what he saw with his own eyes, and because the Ning family was once too prosperous, the fire burned for three days before it was extinguished.
She rushed into the sea of fire so resolutely, there was no chance of survival.
Even if she is still alive, she should be the same age as him, not so young, but ...... Zhao Yiling still couldn't convince himself, even if it was similar, he had to see what it was!
With that kind of look, he had only seen it on Ning Juan's body.
No one else.
Even if it's not her, it's good to look alike...... Just like a little bit.
For more than ten years, Zhao Yiling has never been as flustered as he is now, and there is a voice in his heart that keeps telling him.
If you miss it this time, it will be forever.
"Cousin."
Zhao Yiling's footsteps were urgent, but he was stopped by the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him.
Gu Wanqing was dressed in a pale pink embroidered peony skirt, draped in a white fox coat, restrained by a thin waist cloud belt, Ying Ying held it, and had a Qibao coral hairpin in her hair, her face was like a hibiscus, her face was elegant, and her red lips looked a little elegant and delicate under the contrast of her skin.
is different from Ning Juan's kind of delicate, like a begonia, and she is constantly striving for self-improvement.
Gu Wanqing is as beautiful as water, which makes it easier for men to have a desire to protect, and at this moment, she is pulling Zhao Yiling's sleeve with a smile, and said coquettishly, "What are you looking at, I didn't hear you just called you for a while." β
The panic in Zhao Yiling's eyes was suppressed, and he instantly returned to normal, "It's nothing." β
The deep voice was full of alienation, but Gu Wanqing didn't seem to feel it, and continued to smile gently, "Aunt has been waiting for you at home for a long time, you said that you just had a meal with your colleagues and went back, and she is still waiting for you." β
When Zhao Yiling raised his head again, the figure in the crowd had already disappeared, Zhao Yiling looked at Gu Wanqing indifferently, brushed away her pulling hand, and walked behind him.
Leaving Gu Wanqing stunned in place.
"Miss, you are so kind to the young master that I can't wait to give him all my heart, but he is still so cold to you." Yun Ruo looked at Zhao Ling's resolute back, feeling sorry for his master.
Gu Wanqing's eyes instantly turned red, and her voice choked, "It's been three years, it's been more than three years, and that slut is dead, but he would rather his wife's position be vacant than look back at me." β
Gu Wanqing stubbornly wiped away her tears, "Don't be afraid, the woman on the left and right is dead, and now I am the only one left by my cousin's side, and he will see me sooner or later!" β
Yun Ruo echoed and said, "No, Miss, you must be brighter, there are many women who want to rely on our young master over the years, and you must not let them take advantage of the loopholes." β
"Mrs. Sima's position is yours, no one wants to snatch it away!"
The hatred in Gu Wanqing's eyes flashed, and her hands in her sleeves were even more pinched into her palms.
is very different from the gentle and virtuous appearance in front of Zhao Yiling.
Gu Wanqing glared at the master who was a candy man fiercely, and then sped up her pace to follow behind Zhao Yiling, in front of people, she always maintained a smiling expression, and the distance between Zhao Yiling and Zhao Youling was so close, it was easy to give others an illusion.
This illusion is that Da Sima's Lord Zhao also has a deep affection for his cousin, but because of the death of his wife, the filial piety period has not yet passed, and it is not suitable to fill the house, I am afraid that Miss Gu has already entered the door.
There are even rumors that it should have been Gu Wanqing who married Zhao Youling at the beginning, and it was the eldest lady of the Ning family who forcibly robbed someone else's fiancΓ© by virtue of her high status, but Zhao Youling was too affectionate and righteous, even if she had no feelings for Ning Xuan, she didn't want to embarrass her after death, so there was a saying that she had three years of filial piety.
No matter what the rumors are, they are all belittling Ning Juan and elevating Gu Wanqing and Zhao Yiling.
Either Caesar or nothing.
This principle has been true since ancient times, not only for the emperor's family, but also for every ordinary person.
Only those who survive are the winners, and only those who are qualified to rewrite the judgment in the mouths of others, and those who are dead are ...... can only be slaughtered by others, and there is no chance to justify.
ββ
The crescent moon is deep, and the night is dark.
The charcoal pot in the house was burning, and Lu Chengxuan was frowning and reading ancient history books by the candlelight, looking very focused.
What the Golden Hazel Pavilion handed over to her was an errand for the Sheng family.
When it comes to the Sheng family, you must think of the word Lang Huan, which can be described as famous.
Originated in the Western Han Dynasty, started with Cao Wei and the Western Jin Dynasty, flourished in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and continued to this day, nearly 700 years, worthy of the name of the family of generals, calligraphy famous.
No matter how the dynasty changes, whether the emperor loves the people or is violent, he is polite to the Sheng family, and no one can shake the status of the first family of the Sheng family.
He joined the court as an official, held an important position but did not participate in party struggles, loved the country and the people, and was involved in business, the army, agriculture and labor, each involved in his own affairs, intertwined, and his position was stable.
Even the Ning family of Zeng Sheng's grace and honor, the captain of the three dynasties, cannot be compared, that is the real hairpin family, a famous family......
If the Miss Sheng family of the Sheng family also participated in the draft in March next year, it should be Miss Seven Sheng Mingyue in terms of age, and her age is moderate.
In her memory, Ning Qian had seen Sheng Mingyue once from afar.
At that time, it was still a good day in March, and the peach blossoms were full of branches.
She hasn't left the cabinet yet, and followed her mother Ning Xie to take the invitation and go to the Sheng family to participate in the hairpin party, speaking of which, Ning Xuan's mother Ning Xie is also related to Sheng Xie's mother, the seventh lady of the Sheng family.
Sheng Xie is very fond of camellias.
The younger generations of the Sheng family and the Xie family deliberately courted Sheng Xie's favor and collected precious camellia varieties from all over the world for Sheng Xie's pampering.
The hairpin festival can also be seen as a different kind of camellia viewing party.
Sheng Mingyue was dizzy with a pearl, beautiful jade, and there was a faint breath of bookish air in her eyebrows at a young age.
At a young age, following her mother Sheng Xie's side, she was already able to take care of the Sheng family's hairpin club in an orderly manner, and she was a good woman.
Such a woman...... Entering the palace......
Lu Chengxuan inevitably felt a lot of emotion, and tried her best to think of some patterns and styles to win the favor of this seventh lady.
After all...... Whether it is the Lang Huan Sheng family or the concubine with a noble status in the future, it is worth Lu Chengxuan's attention.
Qinglian couldn't help but bother, and quietly walked outside the door.
Outside the window, the moon shadow slanted westward, and the figure swayed.
Lu Chengxuan put down the scrolls and ancient books, and said softly, "But Qinglian is back?" β
"Bring her in."
After a while, there was a creaking sound at the door, and Qinglian stretched out her head and looked at Lu Chengxuan with a smile, followed by a somewhat cramped Cuiguo.
Without waiting for Lu Chengxuan to speak, Cuiguo gritted her teeth and knelt in front of Lu Chengxuan.
"Miss, the slave knows that the slave's request may be a little excessive, but the slave and the maid still want to give it a try, if the young lady can help the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid are also willing to know everything, and do their best to help the fifth lady gain a firm foothold in the Lu family."
Lu Chengxuan was a little surprised. "Tell me what it is."
Originally, the secret stake of Cuiguo was kept to deal with Lin An, and he didn't want to get a condition by accident, looking at Cuiguo's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, he thought that there might be something that Lu Chengxuan did not estimate. β
Lu Chengxuan frowned slightly, "You have a good relationship with Qinglian, it is for the sake of Qinglian's face, if I can help you, I will try my best to help, but if you want to make any excessive requests, you are looking for the wrong person." β
Cuiguo's heart was horizontal, and the ten fingers of his hands in his sleeves were clenched, and he said openly, "Madam...... The slave suspects that the eldest lady is misbehaving. β
(The four ancient families, Langya Wang's family, here I like the surname Sheng, changed, historical background, overhead, written by blind jb, can't be more real, look around)
Ning Su avoided her body, unwilling to let Lu Chengxuan see the tears in her eyes, "Sister Chengxuan, I'm afraid you're thirsty, I'll pour some water for you." β
Lu Chengxuan nodded, "Okay." β
That's nice.
It's a good feeling.
She didn't die, Ning Su didn't die, after waking up, it was this familiar scene, the person she cared about the most was still around, she could still breathe, this feeling was so good.
"Sister Cheng Xuan, be careful, the wound on your back has been coated with ointment, don't touch the wound."
Lu Chengxuan took the tea and said casually, "Thank you for your hard work." β
"You've lost a lot of weight, but you're still guarding me to change my dressing."
Ning Su's face was crimson and a little cramped, "If that's it, Sister Cheng Xuan said that she was separated from Su Su. β
"If Sister Cheng Xuan doesn't dislike it, just change me to a vegetarian, people in the family always call me that."
"Xiaorou, who was changed to after entering the palace, is still more plain and sound-friendly."
Lu Chengxuan nodded in a choked voice, "Okay." β
"By the way, Sister Cheng Xuan, you can recuperate with peace of mind these days, where has Concubine Xiang Niangniang already come to speak, she doesn't want a patient to be an eyesore in front of her, she will go back when she is all right."
"Concubine Xiang, this is distressing you!"
"Then I will ask you to take care of it for me during this time." Lu Chengxuan closed her eyes coyly, the injuries behind her were really serious, and she felt even more sleepy, so Tong Ning Su had already stabilized her breathing when she said this.
"It's not like I haven't resisted." Zhao Yiling's eyes were slightly red, his voice was vicissitudes, and his fingers were a little trembling and pointed at the position of his heart, "It's just...... It's dead here. β
"The rest doesn't matter."
It's just that every time he is a little cold-eyed, Gu Xiu can cry by his side all day, and he feels tired after a long time.
I feel ...... more The heart is dead.
