The dream of smoke and cardamom was shocked into the ninefold.

The mud beads are exchanged for gold beads, but the fate is different.

The beautiful spring days are always so short, and the hot summer days can't wait to come quietly, and the temperature begins to be hot and dry just after the beginning of summer.

Seeing that the annual flood period is coming, the prince will go to duty as usual, and it is rare to come back once in a few months. Since Murong Zifeng knew that Murong Ningshuang also liked Xiao Gongzi, he had tested Xiao Gongzi, and saw that he had no intention of Murong Ningshuang at all, so he quietly reminded Xiao Gongzi to hurry up and propose.

However, Xiao Gongzi brought a matchmaker to propose marriage several times, but the princess rejected him on the grounds that the prince was not in the house, and prevaricated that he would come back in a few days until the prince really went to the construction site.

On this day, Murong Ningyan and Ninglu finished lunch, they were already drenched in sweat, Murong Ningyan's eyes kept jumping, and I don't know if he didn't have a good rest because of the heat?

The trees are hoarse and noisy, making people even more upset, and the plants seem to be oiled by the sun, and the leaves are shiny and shiny, exuding the unique fragrance of the plant.

In the afternoon, the swing frame is shaded by a large area of trees, but it is a good place to cool off. The two sisters Murong Ningyan and Ning Lu took the scroll to cool off, and Xiangya followed to play the fan, and the cool breeze was blowing under the tree, and it didn't take long for fatigue to hit.

Ning Lu was so sleepy holding the book, she couldn't pick it up when the scroll slipped to the ground, and the fan maker didn't notice that the fan had fallen, so she simply leaned against the tree and took a nap.

Murong Ningyan, who was undisturbed, was full of thoughts at this time, from the heartbeat when he was rescued by Xiao Gongzi, to the electric flint when he looked at each other at the wine table, to the infatuated dialogue under the moon in the Lake Heart Pavilion, and the confession under the peach blossom tree, and even used a comb to a hundred heads, lovesick to a thousand years to make love, Xiao Gongzi has been deeply imprinted in Murong Ningyan's heart.

Murong Ningyan's youngest daughter's thoughts were inadvertently revealed, and a red cloud quietly floated on her cheeks.

At this moment, suddenly a maid came in a hurry, panting and said, "Madame invited the second lady to go to Jiajutang, there are many people in the palace." ”

"Do you know what's going on?" Murong Ningyan "chuckled" in his heart, there was a kind of ominous omen,

"Miss Hui's words, the slave doesn't know."

Murong Ningyan and Ninglu glanced at each other at each other, this should come sooner or later. The two sisters tidied up each other's appearance, and they were dignified and decent, so they went to Jiajutang with Yahuan.

Ten palace people came to the open guest hall, the princess, the Li family, Murong Ningshuang, and Murong Zifeng were also present, and the princess saw Murong Ningyan and Ninglu coming, and hurriedly and enthusiastically reported to an official sitting on the chair of the Taishi in the middle: "Tell your lord, the one in front is the little girl Murong Ningyan, and the one in the back is the righteous girl Ninglu." ”

"Condensation, condensation, come and see the king of selection in the palace."

The two sisters hurriedly saluted Lord Wang: "The people see Lord Wang!"

Lord Wang looked kind, looked at Murong Ningyan with a smile and nodded repeatedly.

"This is Grandpa Zhou!" The princess introduced the two sisters to a eunuch.

"The people's daughter see Father-in-law Zhou!"

Next, the two grandmothers were introduced, Murong Ningyan and Ninglu finished saluting one by one, and retreated to the chair to sit down.

Lord Wang nodded slightly with a smile and said: "Congratulations to Murong Ningyan girl, who is dignified and beautiful, white as porcelain, slim figure, crisp and mellow voice, gentle and frugal, excellent temperament, and generous manners. At this time, I will say goodbye to my family, and I will prepare to enter the palace tomorrow. ”

"Thank you Lord Wang for your grace, the little girl will retire first!" Murong Ningyan was in danger, and gave Lord Wang a blessing and retreated.

The princess said, "I have ordered people to prepare food and wine, and invite the adults to the table later, the road is far away, and the adults are also sleepy, so rest early after eating!" ”

"Then there is Princess Lao!"

Early in the morning, his eyelids jumped vigorously, and he knew that it was not a good thing, as soon as he entered the palace gate, it was as deep as the sea, and Xiao Lang was a passerby from then on. Murong Ningyan was anxious, what should I do? Walking speechlessly with Ning Lu all the way back to the corridor of the Ning Xiang Pavilion, Murong Ning Shuang suddenly appeared in front.

"Congratulations to Sister Yan'er for being selected as a show girl! Maybe one day I will get the emperor's favor, we, the mother's family, but we have to follow my sister's light! ”

Murong Ningshuang sprinkled salt on the wound, and didn't forget to wipe a few handfuls, seemingly flattering words, but like a steel needle to Murong Ningyan's heart, Murong Ningyan at this time, was not in the mood to greet him at all, didn't look at Murong Ningshuang, and didn't want to say anything, just left silently, Murong Ningshuang stared behind Murong Ningyan until he couldn't see it.

At this time, the Li family also came over, and the mother and daughter walked into the Ning Xiang Pavilion.

The solemn Li closed the door and held Murong Ningyan in his arms and sobbed.

Ning Lu also rushed over and hugged Murong Ningyan and cried bitterly, Murong Ningyan sighed softly: "It turns out that this is the conspiracy that their mother and daughter have planned for a long time, and it is indeed ruthless enough." ”

"Who's to say it isn't? She knew that Xiao Gongzi would not like her, and she used this despicable means if she couldn't win, it was really hateful, white-eyed wolf! Smoke, how should we be? "Condensation is sad and anxious, but there is nothing she can do but cry.

Li suddenly realized that if it was rumored to the ears of the palace people, knowing that the mother and son were crying, it would be more unfavorable to Yan'er, so he hurriedly stopped the two daughters, and the three of them were relatively speechless, only silently crying.

Murong Ningyan thought to herself: She has only lived with the Li family for a short year, but she is like her own mother, and she has great respect and attachment to her.

And Murong Ningyan is the treasure in the heart of the Li family, and he also knows the darkness of the harem, the intrigue between the concubines, and the entry into the palace can be described as a life of death, how can the Li family be willing to send his heart and liver treasure into the sea of fire? The prince, who is still at the construction site to control the water, estimates that he will not be able to rush back tomorrow morning when he gets the letter, but the emperor's order is difficult to disobey, and he will go on the road tomorrow morning, so what can he do if he is reluctant? It's not just that you can only enter the palace obediently.

Li sat down with his daughter in his arms, taught her a lot of ways to behave and do things, and told her thousands of instructions, just to be safe and secure after entering the palace. In fact, at this time, Murong Ningyan already had an idea in his heart.

At this moment, Murong Zifeng pushed the door in with a solemn expression.

"Mother, I want to talk to my brother and sister for a while, can my mother and sister sleep with me at night?"

Li said: "Okay, it's rare that the three of you brothers and sisters have a deep affection, and I don't know when we will be able to meet each other in this parting, so let's talk about it!" ”

After speaking, he wiped away his tears, looked carefully at his eyes in the bronze mirror, and covered up the fat powder on the dresser before going out.

Murong Ningyan, Ning Lu, and Murong Zifeng walked to a secluded place in the back garden, looked carefully at the four places, and Ning Lu whispered, "Big brother, do you know?" It was the idea of the princess and Murong Ningshuang to choose a show from the palace to let Yan'er enter the palace, and the purpose was to take away Xiao Gongzi from Yan'er. ”

"Sister, don't say it, it's useless to say this now."

"Smoke, is this true? The draft into the palace should be the emperor's decree, and the mother concubine doesn't have this ability, right? Murong Zifeng felt that his mother concubine should not have that ability.

"The princess can't, but your grandfather can speak in front of the emperor, I heard it with my own ears." Ning Lu briefly told Murong Zifeng about the scene of that day.

"It's a shame that they can figure it out, even if Yan'er enters the palace, I dare to guarantee that Xiao Gongzi will not empathize with him."

"Brother, now is not the time to discuss this, since the matter has come to this, let's think about countermeasures!" Murong Ningyan beckoned to Murong Zifeng and Ning Lu.

"Yan'er has her own ideas, but she needs the help of her brother and sister, and this may implicate you." Murong Ningyan whispered.

"I'm not afraid of being implicated, as long as I can help Yan'er get rid of the fate of entering the palace, I have no regrets about what I do." Condensation was the first to speak.

"Yes, Yan'er, my brother will also help Yan'er wholeheartedly, what do you have in mind? Let's hear about it. ”

Ning Lu and Murong Zifeng came over, and Murong Ningyan whispered something in their ears, only to see the two of them nodding again and again, and then it didn't take long for the three of them to return to Ning Xiang Pavilion with calm expressions.

At dinner time, in order to entertain people from the palace, the kitchen made a table of sumptuous dishes, because the prince was not in the house, he had to be accompanied by the princess and Murong Zifeng. Murong Zifeng said that there were a lot of mosquitoes, and ordered someone to smoke some incense to repel mosquitoes.

It was late at night, the adults who had eaten and drunk enough were ready to rest, and the group was settled in the east and west guest rooms respectively, there were too many plants and mosquitoes, and Murong Zifeng also intimately smoked incense in the rooms of the adults, and after a while, the snoring was like thunder.

In the middle of the night, the cool breeze is cool, and it is the most comfortable time of the day in summer.

At the back door of the prince's mansion, there seemed to be two black shadows that shook and disappeared. Looking closely, the shadows of the trees were swaying, the sleepy eyes were hazy, there was no black shadow, but it was just a gust of wind blowing, and the branches were swaying, and the family muttered to himself, and continued to squint and nap.

At this moment, a patrolling family member suddenly heard a pop from the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and then the night sky returned to tranquility. So I hurriedly went to the lake pavilion to inspect, and there was nothing abnormal by the pond under the starry sky in the quiet night, except for the sound of frogs.

The next day was already midday, and the house was still quiet, and the janitor changed shifts to rest, thinking: It's too strange to go to the house today, it's almost noon, why haven't you gotten up yet?

At this time, I suddenly heard Mrs. Li scream, and it turned out that Li, who woke up suddenly, found that it was already three strokes in the sun, and today was the day when her daughter entered the palace, how could she sleep so deeply? Yan'er said last night that she wanted to sleep with herself, but when she woke up, there was no shadow of Yan'er and Lu'er, could it be that Yan'er had already entered the palace, worried that she would be reluctant, and couldn't bear to see her leave, so she deliberately didn't let her see the scene of parting?

No, why are the girls still sleeping? It's really not like words, Li quickly woke up the girls.

The princess also woke up at this time, and seeing that the hour was not early, she hurriedly packed up and went down to see the king. Finding that Lord Wang hadn't woken up yet, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, so as not to blame himself for being snooze.

Is it really that Xia Mian is not aware?
