Chapter Thirty-Eight
"What is this?" Ning Shangmo looked at the clothes on her table, red, green, and green, embroidered with golden silk threads and intricate patterns, which looked very heavy, and then weighed the gold and jade jewelry on the tray next to her, which was extremely luxurious.
Zhuye stood at the door and refused to enter, she glanced at the clothes from a distance, and whispered, "This is sent by the concubine." ”
"Sister?" Ning Shangmo rummaged through his clothes, and there were silk middle clothes underneath, all of which were brand new, and this set had not been worn by Yunni, could it be ...... Is it for her?
"This is the dress prepared for you when you enter the palace to celebrate your birthday, and the concubine Niangniang made a lot of efforts to find these more than 30 Suzhou embroidery girls and rushed out overnight." Ming Qingyan leaned against the door frame and sighed with a smile: "It's really a good embroiderer, and the stitches can't be seen at all." ”
"It seems that he is sick, and he can see the quality of the embroidery when he stands so far away." Ning Shangmo smiled faintly and beckoned to Zhuye: "Come here." ”
"If the young lady has any orders, just say it, I, I'll just stand here." Where did Zhu Ye dare to enter, standing at the door and waving his hand repeatedly, his head shaking like a rattle.
"Come here!" Ning Shangmo didn't bother to laugh, as soon as he slapped the table, Zhu Ye immediately drooped his head and stepped into the door, standing aside, closing his eyes and looking like he was going to die with righteousness, seeing Ning Shangmo very helpless: "What are you doing, am I going to eat you?" ”
"I ...... I'm not good at it......" Takeba whispered.
"I don't have the habit of eating human flesh yet. Go, return this dress to the concubine Niangniang, and say that I will not go to the birthday banquet. Ning Shangmo pushed the tray containing clothes and jewelry to the table, glanced at Ming Qingyan lightly, and said: "Anyway, the birthday banquet is to eat and drink, just let the prime minister who has a lot of opportunities to go." ”
Ming Qingyan didn't say anything, just watched from the side, as if he hadn't heard what he had just said.
"Miss, this, this afternoon is the time for the birthday banquet to begin, and now you say you won't go, don't you...... Isn't it a little ......" Zhuye lowered her head, she was afraid of this, if it was someone else who would return later, this concubine's temper, she really didn't dare to reply like this.
Ning Shangmo could see what she was thinking at a glance, which was not surprising, she didn't dare to tell Sister Yunni if she was going to change, not to mention that there was a queen mother above, after thinking about it, she looked at Ming and said lightly: "Then it's bothering Mingxiang." ”
Ming lightly hooked the corners of his mouth and nodded towards Zhuye: "You go down first." ”
Zhu Ye was relieved, lowered his head and trotted out without any further delay.
"Why is it so difficult for her to do something." Ning Shangmo looked at the direction where Zhu Ye left, sighed, and turned to look at Ming Qingyan beside him with a smile: "Then I will be tired of Mingxiang." ”
"It's a big deal, don't you want to go?" There was no surprise in Ming's light tone, he had already thought of this, he thought that she would pack up her baggage and leave last night, but he didn't expect her to sleep peacefully.
"What's there to go? It's just an old man's birthday banquet, eating, drinking, and watching a play, and the whole day has passed like this, so wasted time, if Confucius knew, I'm afraid he would be so angry that he would crawl out of the tomb and cry. Ning Shangmo spread his hands.
She didn't want to go in the first place, and she didn't want to go even more after knowing about the military department. Today is a big day, for the birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, the city set up a stage, invited the best troupe, sang a big opera there, sang for a whole day, many people in the city will rush to see the excitement.
When this kind of dragon and snake are mixed, the forbidden army will take on the heavy responsibility of protecting the people. And the person who started before, who didn't succeed twice, I'm afraid he won't let go of this opportunity. She was not interested in entering the palace to "appreciate" Ming Qingyan and the princess's affection and love at such a dangerous time.
"Confucius is obedient to filial piety, if he knows that people don't even participate in the birthday celebration of the mother of the world, wouldn't it be even more angry." Ming Qingyan poured himself a cup of tea, and the cold and refreshing tea made him frown slightly: "How is it cold tea." ”
"Not only was it cold, but it was left for three days." Ning Shangmo smiled and made a gesture of invitation: "The soaking is the best Pu'er, the older this Pu'er is, the more fragrant it is, I specially prepared it for Xiangye." ”
Ming paused lightly, put down the teacup stiffly, and Ning Shangmo smiled: "It seems that Xiangye dislikes this tea is too new, next time I will change someone to put it for half a month." ”
"The lady doesn't know, this tea can naturally get more and more fragrant the older it gets, but the tea is not, the tea needs a small amount of water to be boiled to be fragrant, and this small amount of water can't be put for half a month." Ming said slowly, like a good teacher.
The appearance of earnest teaching made Ning Shangmo have several green tendons on his head, and he finally resisted the urge to do it.
Sure enough, you can't play tricks with this guy!
Ning Shangmo gritted his white teeth before holding back a smile: "I see, Ming Xiang is well-read and knowledgeable, it's really amazing, I think that the princess is also attracted by Ming Xiang's erudition, and now she is waiting to discuss poetry and books with you." Then I won't leave you in vain, let's go! ”
"Don't worry, it's not an important person, the concubine is also waiting for you." Ming Qingyan knew that others couldn't do it, but the concubine would definitely be able to suppress her, so he deliberately bit the word concubine very hard.
Ning Shangmo's smile froze on her face, and she glared at Ming Qingyan angrily, but there was no deterrent effect. Seeing that he was about to open his mouth to continue to say something, she hurriedly reached out to intercept his words.
Ming looked at her incomprehensibly, but Ning Shangmo only smiled and bent his eyes, hooked his finger at him, Ming Qingyan leaned towards her with doubts, but before she could get close, she grabbed her arm, Ming Qingyan felt a momentary tingling, and looked down to see that she had already pointed a silver needle on his arm.
It was Qu Chi acupoint, last night she sealed the three acupuncture points of Qu Chi, Taiyuan and Fenghe in Ming Qingyan's hand, and the four needles were nothing to pierce alone, but if the four acupoints were sealed at the same time, it would not take three incense sticks of time, and he would be weak.
"You...... What did you do? Ming Qingyan narrowed her eyes slightly, expecting that she would not obediently enter the palace to celebrate her birthday, and would definitely think of some way to escape, but she didn't expect that her attack would be so unexpected.
Ning Shangmo didn't answer, only squinted at him, then stood up, turned around and began to pack his clothes, silently waiting for him to fall.
Her hand is not heavy, and he will untie it himself after lying down for a long time, but this half day is enough for her to do a lot of things.
When Ming Qingyan accidentally fell into her trap, she found that she didn't know when, but she began to care about this sick man, and began to fear that he would die.
But now the unclear relationship between Tuoba Yanling and him makes her really unable to tolerate any strange emotions she has for this person. However, if he leaves without permission now, I am afraid that my sister, the emperor and even the queen mother will not let him go!
Then it's better to strike first, let him press the handprint on the letter of resignation, and she can justifiably go back to Ningfu to be her eldest lady, anyway, that Tuoba Yanling doesn't look like a fuel-efficient lamp, there is such an opportunity to take advantage of the situation, I guess she will not let it go.
And...... If they get married, there is such a pearl in the palm of the king of Beimeng who stays in Daling as a hostage, and he is not afraid of the chaos of war, so that the people are bored, and the emperor will not say anything......
Thinking about it was obviously a good thing, but Ning Shangmo didn't know why, her heart suddenly became dull, like a big mountain pressing on her chest, blocking her breathlessly.
Ming Qingyan's face was a little remorseful, I don't know what he thought of, and Ning Shangmo also silently counted the time in his heart, the two were silent for a while, the room was silent, and the early birds outside the door were chirping and noisy, I don't know if they were laughing at their sympathy.
Time passed little by little, and Ning Shangmo suddenly found that the situation was not right, and it was reasonable to say that it should have fallen now, but there was no sound behind him! She touched the wrapping cloth uneasily, and quietly turned around to peek, but her eyes crashed into Ming Qingyan's smiling eyes!
"Why are you alright?" Ning Shangmo looked at him in surprise, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while, but Ming's smile was even bigger, and he actually waved his hand at her comfortably.
She bit her lip, walked over suspiciously and poked his shoulder, nodded lightly, and looked at her scoundrelly: "It seems that the lady has pierced the wrong acupuncture point, which is really unfortunate." ”
Seeing Ning Shangmo unbelievably pull open his sleeve to check, staring at the small needle eye almost into a hole, Ming Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and withdrew his hand: "I didn't expect that I hadn't seen you overnight, lady, you ......."
Before he could say this, he heard a sudden commotion outside the door.
"What is this! Hahaha, this, this is also so well written! ”
As soon as she heard Ning Yunni's voice, Ning Shangmo was shocked, and knew that this concubine was not only here to arrest her when she left the palace, but she couldn't help but hold her forehead, why was her sister so keen to get her and this old fox together!
Looking at Ning Shangmo's collapsed expression, Ming smiled lightly and sent the big red dress to Ning Shangmo, and said, "I'm afraid I can't rely on it this time, let's change my clothes." ”
The footsteps outside the door were getting closer and closer, and Ning Shangmo knew that he couldn't escape, so he glared at Ming lightly with resentment: "Then what are you still standing here for?" ”
"Then I'll get out." Ming smiled very wildly.
Seeing his villain's appearance, she was so angry that she just wanted to move the bed up and smash him to death, but Ming slipped away quickly, and before she could do anything, the person had already closed the door and greeted Yunni who was walking slowly outside the hospital.
Ning Shangmo glanced at the big red clothes with resistance, and struggled in his heart for a while before compromising.
The color of the clothes was too eye-catching, Ning Shangmo only took a picture in the bronze mirror, then covered his face, and felt that he was a walking chili pepper, and looked at the golden jewelry on the side, after all, she still didn't have the courage to plug all those sideburns and tired silk beads on the hairpin, and only chose a plain hosta to wear, which means.
When he pushed the door out, Ming Qingyan was whispering something to Yunni, and Yunni was not the same as before, and his face was quite serious. She bowed in the past, ignored Ming's smiling face, stood beside Yunni and held her arm affectionately and said, "Sister, why are you here?" ”
"I don't know if I'm not here, you girl has been getting bolder and bolder lately, and she even wants to escape the Queen Mother's birthday banquet!" Yun Ni grabbed her ears and said angrily, "I'll go back to the palace with you today!" ”
"Then Weichen will go and prepare the carriage first." A smile flashed in the corner of Ming Qingyan's eyes, and he bowed and began to show up.
This whole morning, Ning Shangmo only sat obediently next to Yunni, Yunni drank tea, she added water, and when it was hot, she fanned, until someone from the palace invited her, Yunni held Ning Shangmo's hand, and by the way, she also grabbed her, and entered the carriage together.
Ming Qingyan's carriage followed, accompanied by four or five small servants carrying congratulatory gifts.
Ning Shangmo glanced at the window unwillingly, and Yun Ni coughed: "What are you looking at?" ”
"Nothing, nothing!" Ning Shangmo immediately denied it.
“…… Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, it's just Shang Mo, this time you have to be in the palace. Yun Ni said, sighed, and said in a low tone: "Beimeng is not easy to deal with." ”
