Chapter 98: Shunshui Favor

was told through by Xun Xuan's words, Qi Yin's cheeks suddenly turned red, and she smiled awkwardly.

"That's it, it's not too early, you can go back and rest." Xun Xuan waved her hand, no longer asked, and turned around to go into the inner room to rest.

……

The next day, the school of the country.

Jing Ying led a group of subordinates to sit quietly in the living room of the academy for a long time, and Duan Hongfang, who was sacrificing wine, stumbled over.

"I don't know if the prince is driving, the next official is late, and I ask the prince to forgive me!" Duan Hong said breathlessly.

"It's this king who disturbed Lord Duan's office, and it's not this king's." Jing Ying said seemingly modestly.

Jing Ying deigned to say this, Duan Hong knew that he couldn't stand it, and hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no...... It was the fault of the lower officials to make the prince wait for a long time. Ignorance...... What is the matter with the prince of the country this time? ”

Jing Ying saw Duan Hong's cautious appearance, but she felt interesting, so she didn't plan to sell Guan Zi anymore, and said directly: "This king came this time to help someone bring something to Lord Duan." ”

When Duan Hong heard this, his legs were weak, how could he let King Zhao personally go on this trip to deliver something to himself?

While Duan Hong was carefully wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Jing Ying turned around and waved his hand at the subordinates, and his subordinates immediately unfolded the embroidery map, and a vast and vast mountain view map jumped in front of him.

When Duan Hong saw this magnificent embroidery picture, his eyes were stunned, and he didn't bother to talk to Jing Ying for a while, and asked directly: "Lord Wang, where did this work come from?" ”

Jing Ying looked up at the embroidery, and he also loved this embroidery very much, if he hadn't promised Xun Zhi to give it to Duan Hong, Jing Ying couldn't help but take it for himself.

"This work is entrusted to you by a close friend of mine to exchange for an invitation from Mr. Duan, I don't know if it's okay?" Jing Ying Road.

"Yes, of course!" Duan Hong thought to himself, not to mention that this embroidery is excellent in all aspects, even if it is embroidered into a piece of, for the sake of your King Zhao's face, he has to give this invitation.

After saying that, Duan Hong turned around and gave a look to the scholar on the side, and the scholar ran down quickly and quickly sent over a well-preserved golden envelope invitation.

"Lord Wang, this is an invitation!" Duan Hongbi respectfully handed it to Jing Ying.

Jing Ying nodded, and after taking the things, she reluctantly glanced back at the Chongyang ascending map, and was about to turn around and leave.

It just so happened that Jing Ying's action fell into Duan Hong's eyes, but Duan Hong was also a person who could observe words and feelings, and immediately said: "Lord, this embroidery is really superior, if you like it, you can take it back." ”

Although Jing Ying was itching in her heart, she said with a serious face: "How can this work, the owner of this painting entrusted the painting to this king, if this king brings it back by himself, wouldn't it seem that this king is not keeping his word?" ”

"There is no hindrance, the prince will regard it as a piece of the mind of the lower official, if the owner of the painting asks, he will say that it is the meaning of the lower official." Duan Hong said with a flattering face.

Duan Hong gave enough steps, Jing Ying was naturally happy in his heart, and a flamboyant smile immediately appeared on his handsome face: "Sure enough, Mr. Duan understands the king's mind best, and since this is the case, then the king is not welcome." ”

"You're welcome, you're welcome." Lord Wang, don't be polite to me, the lower officials can't afford that blessing! Duan Hong said secretly in his heart.

A roll of embroidery was brought over and taken away, Jing Ying smiled with satisfaction, and prepared to leave.

Duan Hong suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "Lord Wang, please allow the official to ask more, who is the owner of this embroidery?" ”

Jing Ying smiled and said, "This person is inconvenient for the king to say, if Mr. Duan is curious, just wait, the master of the painting will personally look for you on the day of the poetry meeting." ”

When Duan Hong heard Jing Ying say this, he knew that he couldn't ask anything again, if Jing Ying didn't want to say anything, who could pry the words out of his mouth?

"Xia Guan is just a cherishing talent, and he wants to see this strange woman, since it is inconvenient for the prince to say, then Xia Guan will not ask." Duan Hong said with interest.

Jing Ying was quite satisfied with Duan Hong's knowledge, and waved his hand and said, "Then you are busy, this king will go first." ”

"Congratulations to Lord Zhao!" Duan Hong looked at Jing Ying's back, and then breathed a sigh of relief, secretly saying that the other party was just here to ask him for an invitation, not to ask for the entrance quota of Fengming Academy, otherwise he would be sandwiched between Concubine Zhu and Prince Zhao, and he would not be a person.

When Jing Ying came out of the Guozi Prison, Yin Chen followed to the side, and said puzzledly: "Lord Wang, since Miss Xun's purpose is to enter Fengming Academy, why don't you directly ask Mr. Duan for a place, presumably if you open your mouth, Mr. Duan will never give you face." ”

"Duan Hong's quota has already been selected, if this king comes forward, it will be difficult for him, Xun Zhi wants to enter Fengming Academy, if he can't even cope with this difficulty, then this Fengming Academy will not enter, so as not to become a stepping stone for others after entering." Jing Ying explained lightly, and she had already entered the soft sedan under her feet.

……

Jing Ying had just returned from Guozijian in the morning, and Xun Xuan had already received the invitation in the afternoon.

"Miss, Lord Zhao is really fast, and the things sent in the morning have been completed in the afternoon." Qi Yin couldn't help but sigh, she finally knew why her young lady was looking for King Zhao, that is, the old lady of Anfu came forward in person, and it would be at least a day later before Duan Hong would reply.

Xun Xuan hooked her lips and smiled, her eyes fell on the golden invitation on the table next to her, and her eyebrows couldn't help but pick slightly, it was still a golden post! Sure enough, it is King Zhao, his identity is not ordinary, and it is so different to come forward and ask for an invitation casually.

Now that I have received the invitation, the next step is to wait patiently for the arrival of the Chongyang Poetry Club.

……

That night, in Fuliu's house, An Yixin's cough became more and more serious, and the whole person was bedridden, and the next morning, the news of An Yixin's serious illness reached the ears of Mrs. Xing.

Mrs. Xing, who was still in a dilemma about the number of concubines in the Chongyang Poetry Society, heard that An Yixin was sick, so she made a special trip to Fuliuju to visit.

Originally...... With the closeness of An Yixin and Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Xing had already planned to hand over the invitation to An Yixin, but she didn't expect that at this juncture, An Yixin would fall ill so unhappily.

Didn't this give up the opportunity to An Lingqing?

Old Madam Xing looked at An Yixin's pale face, with distress on her face: "How can you be so decent, and suddenly become sick like this?" ”

An Yixin was lying on the couch, and her tone of voice became weak: "Grandmother, don't worry about me, it's autumn, and it has to be like this every year in previous years, it's already an old problem." ”

"Fourth girl, don't get up, lie down, I just don't worry about coming to see you," Old Madam Xing sighed, a little regretful, originally in her mind, An Yixin was more qualified to enter the poetry club than An Lingqing, but now, ...... This invitation can only be handed over to An Lingqing.

"Tell me about you, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to the Chongyang Poetry Conference in three days." Old Madam Xing sighed.

As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the courtyard gate, and An Lingqing rushed in with an anxious face: "Third sister...... I heard you're not well......"

"What are you shouting? There are no rules, your third sister is not in good health, and you are still yelling like this! Old Madam Xing was dissatisfied with An Lingqing's babbling behavior.

An Lingqing didn't seem to expect that Mrs. Xing would be in Fuliuju, and as soon as she entered the door, she was scolded by Mrs. Xing, and for a while she couldn't even say something thoroughly: "Grandmother...... You're here too. ”

When An Yixin saw An Lingqing, a trace of forbearance and anger quickly crossed her eyes, but these emotions were instantly concealed, and her weak face was full of gentleness: "Fourth sister, why are you here?" ”

An Lingqing didn't notice the strange look on An Yixin's face at all, and pretended to be casual and said, "I heard that the third sister is not in good health, so I didn't worry about coming to see you." When I came to deliver medicine to you yesterday, wasn't the third sister okay? Why is it suddenly not good? ”

An Yixin lowered her eyes, a touch of coldness crossed her eyes, if it weren't for An Lingqing's bowl of medicine last night, how could her body suddenly become so weak?

Originally, An Lingqing came to give her medicine, with an apologetic face, saying that she was making amends to her for her previous inappropriate behavior, and An Yixin thought she was sincere, but An Yixin never expected it...... An Lingqing would be so ruthless as to poison her medicine.

It's a sister, An Lingqing actually hurt her so much, this sisterhood can be regarded as coming to an end, and An Yixin will no longer tolerate her in the slightest.

Although her heart was full of anger, An Yixin's face pretended to know nothing, in order to lower An Lingqing's vigilance.

"By the way, since the fourth sister is here, then Yixin wants to make a reluctant request to the old lady." An Yixin smiled harmlessly.

Old Madam Xing asked, "If you have anything to say, you can just say it." ”

"I'm not in good health, and I know that I don't have a chance to go to the Chongyang Poetry Club this time, so I want to ask my grandmother to give the fourth sister the quota of concubines who enter the Chongyang Poetry Club, which can be regarded as fulfilling the fourth sister." An Yixin said seemingly kindly.

Originally, even if An Yixin didn't say it, Mrs. Xing would definitely give this place to An Lingqing, the reason why An Yixin said this was to show her friendship for her sister in front of Mrs. Xing, and secondly, she just wanted to be a favor, so that An Lingqing would be grateful to her, so as to let down her guard.

Since An Lingqing will drug her in order to enter poetry and joke with her life, then she An Yixin is by no means soft-hearted.

When An Lingqing heard An Yixin's words, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Mrs. Xing with anticipation.

Originally, Mrs. Xing also planned to do so, but now that An Yixin said so, she naturally didn't have any opinions, so she nodded and agreed.

"In that case, then I won't bother you for now, you can rest!" Old Madam Xing took care of her, got up and planned to leave.
