In Kyoto City, the streets and alleys were full of people, who gathered together to whisper and discuss the most lively Shohwa County Lord's Mansion today.

"The gift given by Shen Shilang is really valuable, that box of gold and silver jewelry, I am afraid that it can be used for several years if it is used in one day."

"What is that, you didn't see the congratulatory gift from Princess An Ning, that's a rare daughter."

"No, no, what you said is not right, but I heard that the gifts given by the emperor are valuable......"

Many people gathered together to compete with great energy, as if they had all seen those treasures with their own eyes.

In the county lord's mansion, Shen Ninghua sat in front of the mirror, removed the extra jewelry on his body, and only wore a simple white dress, and then scattered the long hair behind him.

Hongling cautiously reached out and touched her hair, and said with a face full of amazement: "Miss, some people say that hair is as beautiful as silk, the slave maid always doesn't believe it, seeing the young lady's hair, the slave maid knows that it is not right to say that at all, your hair is like water, and the slave maid is afraid that her hands will be damaged if you touch it." ”

Shen Ninghua was amused by her: "Seeing that your mouth is so sweet today, you want to get a big red envelope from me." ”

"What's the matter, the slave is just telling the truth."

"Okay, I'm sure you're right."

Bai Wei walked in with a tray and a pair of plain embroidered shoes on it: "Miss, the guests in the front yard have already entered the table, and the second lady asked the slave maid to come and invite the young lady over." ”

Shen Ninghua changed into shoes and put his hands slightly folded in front of him: "Let's go." ”

Because of the previous events of the Shen family, Shen Ninghua's etiquette could not be without elders, so she invited her second uncle Shen Liang and second aunt Su Shi to come as the guest of honor, and the two stood on the steps of the hall, looking at the figure who walked in slowly at the door with a smile.

The guests who came to watch the ceremony had naturally heard of Shen Ninghua's beauty, but when they thought of getting rid of all the decorative items at the ceremony, many people had the idea of watching a good show. Especially some young ladies of the family, they have always paid attention to their appearance, Shen Ninghua snatched the title of the first beauty in Kyoto, they agreed with each other, and they couldn't tell how to be jealous in their hearts.

It's just that as soon as Shen Ninghua appeared, everyone present was shocked. She was dressed in white and had long hair scattered over her body, but her elegance had not diminished in the slightest, but she looked more and more striking because there were no other accessories to distract her. All eyes were on her beauty.

She carefully painted her eyebrows with daishi, and the two slender eyebrow feathers set off a pair of bright black eyes like a pool of blue water, as if condensing the best color in the world, and she could no longer find anything comparable to it.

The ceremonial officer was stunned for a few seconds before he came back to his senses, and hurriedly sang a promise: "Please take your seats, and the ceremony begins!" ”

Everyone came back to their senses and hugged Shen Ninghua into the hall.

Su sat on the seat of the guest of honor, and Qingque held a basin of water for her to clean her hands, and then handed over the grate comb.

Shen Ninghua stepped forward with a smile, knelt on the prepared futon, and said, "Thank you uncle and aunt for coming to help me host." ”

Su Shi looked at her with a smile: "The family doesn't speak two words, my eldest brother and sister-in-law have an accident, and they can't come to help you complete the etiquette in person, so naturally it should be done by me, the aunt." You're the protagonist today, just sit there beautifully, and the other aunts have already been arranged. ”

Shen Ninghua showed a sincere smile, in the previous life, she was almost transparent in the Shen family, and no one remembered her etiquette at all, let alone celebrated so much. This regret can be regarded as being remedied today.

"On the auspicious day of the month, the first Canadian dollar is served. Abandon your young ambitions, and become virtuous. Shou Kao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu. ”

In the voice of the ceremonial official, Su carefully coiled up Shen Ninghua's long hair and coiled it up with a delicate jasper carved hairpin.

Shen Liang picked up the red crowning dress and draped it on Shen Ninghua's body.

Shen Ninghua was dressed in gorgeous clothes, and her sharp eyes were imposing, and she was incredibly beautiful.

The guests couldn't help but praise one after another, and the words of praise filled the entire hall.

With a smile on his face, the celebrant sang loudly: "Please come forward." ”

Everyone's eyes focused on the door of the hall, and the praisers were all friends, brothers, and sisters of the people, and Shen Ninghua invited her younger brother Shen Xuanhua.

It's just that I didn't expect that the person who came in in a dress turned out to be Princess Anning.

Baili Anning smiled: "Ning Hua, I robbed your brother of the matter, don't you mind." ”

Shen Ninghua smiled: "Not only do I not mind, but I also want to thank Princess An Ning, this time it was a good robbery." ”

"Hehe, that's what you said." Baili Anning stepped forward, looking at her exquisite and peerless face, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, no wonder the second emperor brother was so obsessed with her, and her appearance was too seductive. Thinking about it, he lifted the jade hairpin with a light movement, "Congratulations, Ninghua." ”

Shen Ninghua nodded in thanks, and bowed respectfully in the direction of the palace.

At this point, the ceremony is also half completed.

"The Divine Decree has arrived!"

Shen Ninghua finished saluting, and before he got up, the attendant who announced the decree strode in.

Everyone hurriedly knelt on the ground to receive the order.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said, the lord of Zhaohua is here today, I am very relieved, and the special internal affairs department is ordered to build a hairpin crown as a congratulatory gift, and my son will be safe and smooth in the future!"

This holy decree is a bit nondescript, not so much a will as something the emperor wants to say to Shen Ninghua, such a cordial tone makes people more and more aware of Shen Ninghua's status in his heart.

"Thank you father, long live your father, long live, long live."

There was already a waiter who came in with a tray, only to see the hairpin crown on the tray shining with glittering brilliance, gold silk jasper, gems and pearls, this hairpin crown is extremely luxurious, I don't know how much thought it took to make these precious materials fit together seamlessly.

Su Shi stepped forward, carefully took the hairpin crown, and helped Shen Ninghua put it on his head. For a while, the aura of heaven and earth seemed to be attracted, making people almost think that the Nine Heavens Xuannu had descended from the sky.

The flattery at the banquet was particularly loud, and the emperor made it clear that he loved Shen Ninghua, and no one dared to go to Shen Ninghua for trouble at this time.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sends a congratulatory gift."

"His Royal Highness the King of Dejun sent a congratulatory gift."

"Three Princes, Four Princes, Five Princes......"

After the holy decree of Baili Qingcang, the congratulatory gifts of several princes were sent one after another, which dazzled everyone for a while.

The main hall is full of all kinds of rare treasures, which makes people dizzy.

Baili Anning exclaimed in a low voice on the side, her brothers had emptied their private treasury by one-third, and this gift was too valuable and amazing.

The hall slowly fell silent, and many people stared at the door, wanting to see how many congratulatory gifts His Royal Highness the county lord could receive.

A loud announcement came:

"Shen Linghan sent a congratulatory gift."

Shen Linghan? Isn't that Shen Ninghua's second sister, the one who was demoted to a commoner some time ago?

Suddenly, many people's eyes became suspicious, and they secretly looked at Shen Ninghua's face.

Shen Ninghua turned his head to signal, and Bai Wei personally went out to present the congratulatory gift sent by Shen Linghan.

Shen Linghan followed behind Bai Wei, his cheeks were slightly red, with a little shame and discomfort, with a pair of big watery eyes, with a gesture of pity.

Bai Wei handed over the tray in his hand and lifted the red cloth on it. On the tray, several handkerchiefs embroidered with orchids are stacked neatly.

"I've seen the eldest sister." Shen Linghan curtsied, raised his head and looked at Shen Ninghua very embarrassedly, "Congratulations to the eldest sister and Xu, I should have prepared a generous gift, but ...... Because of the special situation, so I can only send my hand-embroidered handkerchief, I hope that the eldest sister will never dislike it, and I wish the eldest sister a prosperous and smooth sailing in the future. ”

There was a murmur of discussion in the crowd. This special situation naturally means that the Shen family was relegated to the common people, and only Shen Ninghua himself was rewarded by the emperor and was named the county lord, not to mention, he received countless valuable gifts on the day of the ceremony, this difference is really an underground and a heaven.

Especially Shen Linghan's last blessing, soaring and soaring...... Shen Ninghua is naturally soaring, but her relatives are still living in poverty, such a comparison makes people think a little more.

Shen Linghan lowered her head, a smug light flashed in her eyes, the world sympathizes with the weak, she is in trouble now, but Shen Ninghua is highly sought after, the more humble she is, the more sympathy she can get from others.

Shen Ninghua watched her performance coldly, and the temperature in her eyes became colder and colder. During this time, she has grown a lot, and although this trick is simple and crude, it is really effective.

If she were an ordinary person, she would probably be caught off guard, but she was not an ordinary person, so she would not be persecuted by Shen Linghan.

"I'm very happy that my sister can come, even if I send a feather, I will cherish it, how can I dislike it. Bai Wei, take my sister to the backyard for dinner. ”

Shen Linghan raised his eyes, his eyes were already full of water: "Eldest sister, there is no need to arrange meals, I can now say that I can't be on the stage, and I don't dare to lose my eldest sister's face." ”

"Sister, what she said is not right, don't say that you are just being demoted to a commoner by the emperor now, that is, you are guilty, and my county lord's mansion also welcomes you at any time. If it weren't for the presence of ladies and ladies today, I would have arranged a seat for you. ”

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized that Shen Linghan was not guilty, but Zhao Yunxiang was.

According to the law of the Da'an Dynasty, the mother was convicted, and the children were not allowed to enter the court for three years. It would be a great faux pas for Shen Linghan to come today, if she was allowed to sit in the seat and have a meal with everyone, I am afraid that rumors would spread in the streets and alleys tomorrow that the ladies and young ladies of various families did not abide by their dignity and inferiority.

This is a little lighter, if you go deeper, the emperor only made a judgment on the Shen family some time ago, and today everyone will enter the banquet with Shen Linghan. Is this an expression of dissatisfaction with the emperor's verdict? Or do you have something else in mind?

Although they want to watch the play, they don't want to get dirty.

Shen Linghan's face turned white, and he almost wanted to find a crack in the ground to get into it when he stood in the distance.

There were already people around who spoke sarcastically: "Shen Linghan, the county lord is already extremely tolerant of letting you in a large amount, you don't want to get an inch." ”

"yes, is this a place where anyone can come?"

"Yes."

Shen Ninghua got up and walked in front of Shen Linghan, took off an emerald bracelet from his wrist and handed it over: "Sister, you just listen to my advice and let Bai Wei take you down to eat." When the feast is over, I will go with you to visit my father. You take this bracelet first, and it will be my thank you gift to my sister. ”

"No, how could I ask for your stuff." Shen Linghan's face was stiff, but she had to forcibly keep smiling, if she lost face at this time, she would have no chance to turn over again.

Shen Ninghua looked at her disapprovingly: "You are sisters, I dislike a bracelet that the gift is too thin, don't shirk it, put it on quickly." ”

As she spoke, she directly held Shen Linghan's hand and wanted to put the bracelet on her hand on it. Shen Linghan struggled violently, her sleeves slipped, revealing a small section of her wrist, and she each carried a delicate glass jade bracelet on her wrist, and there was a faint brilliance emitting from the shaking, which was obviously very valuable.
