Chapter 71: Tomorrow I Will Be Someone Else's Bride
You can see each other yesterday, and when you meet, you will fall into the city.
Love each other but don't see it, hate moves mountains and levels.
"Yes, now Yan'er can only let it go and hide Xiao Gongzi in his heart." Murong Ningyan lowered his head and kept wrapping his handkerchief around his fingers.
At this moment, the door opened, and Murong Zifeng and Ning Lu walked in. Ning Lu stepped forward and hugged Li and said affectionately: "Mother, it's really you!" Are you okay? ”
"Okay, good, mother! Whether it's your mother-in-law, I heard that Lu'er is getting married, and the emperor gave her a marriage, my mother is really happy for you! Bless you to grow old together and love for a hundred years! ”
"Mother, as soon as you meet, let's talk about this, let's talk about cigarettes!" Condensation bowed her head shyly.
"She's been saying it a long time ago."
At this time, Red Sleeves came to say that the meal was ready, and Ning Yan hurriedly said as if he had seen a savior: "It's time to eat, it's time to eat!" As he spoke, he took Lee's arm and walked towards the dining table.
After eating, Li reluctantly said: "Yan'er, Lu'er, my mother is going back, you have to take care of yourself!" ”
"Mother, why don't you stay here for a few more days? In such a hurry? ”
Seeing that the maids were not around, Li Shi whispered: "Feng'er brought me here on horseback, he was worried that someone would leak the news, so he didn't dare to let someone send me, if I stayed here for a long time, in case someone found out, it would be a big deal." I'm relieved to see you all today! Lu'er, don't worry, I'll talk to your mother when I go back, she's in good health, you don't have to worry about her. ”
"Oh well! Mother! Take care of yourself! Yan'er is not filial, and he can't be by your side to be filial! Murong Ningyan's eyes were red, he knelt down on one knee, kowtowed to Li's head, and was pulled up by Li's, and the three of them hugged their heads and cried bitterly.
"Auntie, sisters! Don't give up! When I have the opportunity in the future, I will bring my aunt over again. Murong Zifeng pulled them away at the right time, so as not to delay the time.
The mother and daughter were reluctant to separate, and the Li family turned around three times in one step, just waiting for Murong Zifeng to help her onto the horse and disappear at the end of the road.
Red Sleeves kindly called for washing water, and asked Murong Ningyan and Ninglu to wash their faces, and then the two went for a walk in the courtyard.
At this time, Red Sleeves suddenly came over and said, "Miss Murong, there is a son surnamed Han and a young lady surnamed Wu visiting outside!" ”
"Come in!" Murong Ningyan said and walked towards the gate with Ninglu. I saw the two smiling people coming over from afar, and I saw that Wu Lijuan's complexion was much better than the last time I saw her.
"Mr. Han and Miss Wu are here, and they are not welcome!" Murong Ningyan smiled and welcomed them into the house.
After a period of greetings, Han Gongzi spoke: "Miss Ningyan, please accept the next bow, Xiaosheng is polite!" ”
Han Gongzi suddenly saluted Murong Ningyan, and she was so startled that she quickly got up from the chair and asked in surprise: "No courtesy!" Han Gongzi, why are you? ”
"The girl must still remember, I said last time, and Lijuan's marriage, all pointing to this autumn season, as expected, I was originally ranked in the top spear, this time I was replaced, thanks to the vast power of Li Gongzi came forward, actually stabbed the matter to the emperor, the emperor personally corrected the world, dismissed the officials of the ministry, and also restored my name of Tanhua, and successfully entered the Hanlin Academy."
"Congratulations to Han Gongzi High School! No, it should be called Lord Han now! ”
"Rejoice and rejoice!"
Murong Ningyan smiled and excused herself: "It's just that what does this have to do with me?" It's the credit of Li Gongzi! ”
"Who doesn't know? Li Gongzi helped us only because of your face? ”
"That's right, Sister Ning Yan, it's really thanks to Gongzi Li, it's really a great help, otherwise don't talk about our marriage, even Han Gongzi is afraid that it is..."
"Lijuan, don't talk about shameful things!" Han Gongzi's face was embarrassed.
"What's there to be ashamed of? It's too annoying! Sister Ning Yan, you don't know, when Han Gongzi learned that he was impostored, he had the heart to die. At this time, Wu Lijuan still looked aggrieved.
"Alas, when encountering such an injustice, everyone will feel angry and can't think about it, but when you think about it, people can't live just for fame. Okay now, so Wu County Ling agreed to your marriage? ”
"Promise, my father has no reason not to agree, now it's Gao Pan!" Wu Lijuan blushed and lowered her head.
"What do you say about Gao Pan, when I was a poor talent, didn't you dislike me!" Han Gongzi affectionately reprimanded Wu Lijuan. Then he turned to Murong Ningyan and said, "Today, the two of us came to visit, firstly, to thank Li Gongzi and Miss Ningyan for their kindness in reconstruction!" The second is to invite the two, the eighth day of the next month is the day I marry Lijuan, please enjoy the light! ”
"Congratulations to the two of you for tying the knot! Congratulations by all means! ”
"Then Lijuan and I will go back first! Goodbye Smoke Girl! ”
"Slow down, two! Lijuan, come and play often! ”
After sending off Han Gongzi and the others, Murong Ningyan praised the emperor in his heart, indicating that he took this matter to heart and took the first successful step to abandon the bad habits left by the previous dynasties.
Murong Ningyan went to play with flowers and plants when he was tired of embroidering every day, played the piano and read books, lived a poetic life, his mood gradually improved, and his smile returned to his face, as if he had temporarily walked out of the pain of losing Xiao Gongzi.
On this day, Murong Zifeng and Lin Xi'er came, and Murong Ningyan said, "Brother, Xi'er, I'll teach you a fun game!" ”
"Okay, what's the new trick for my sister?"
"It's a lot of fun, but we'll have to make our own items."
Lin Xi'er's voice sounded like a white spirit bird singing, and she said with a happy face: "Teach Brother Murong Zifeng how to make props, he is the best, he helped me make a bow last night, and it was polished very smooth, which is very easy to use." ”
Murong Ningyan knew that Xi'er would be anxious when she said this, and deliberately teased Lin Xi'er: "Brother, you find me a sister-in-law younger than me, I will suffer a loss, do you know?" And she doesn't know that she feels sorry for you, she wants you to do everything, don't tire my brother out. ”
Sure enough, Lin Xi'er was anxious: "I didn't feel sorry for Brother Zifeng, if you don't believe you ask him, I will make him a delicious soup, and I will help him massage, I will... ”
Xi'er wanted to continue, but was stopped by Murong Zifeng in time, and said to her with great pity: "Silly Xi'er, Yan'er is teasing you, don't be fooled!" ”
"Yan'er, you call her sister-in-law a bit of a loss, in order to make up for it, in the future, my brother and sister-in-law will let my sister-in-law make soup for you to drink, and the pheasant soup made by Xi'er is delicious!"
"Haha, great, then I want to follow my brother to enjoy the blessings of my sister-in-law!" Jokingly, Murong Ningyan began to teach everyone how to make props.
"The item we're going to make is called playing cards, and there are many ways to play it. Xi'er and I are responsible for drawing, writing, and cutting, brother, how about you make thin wood chips? ”
"No problem!"
Murong Ningyan told the two of them about the requirements, and since there were no tools, Murong Zifeng left to go back to the house to do it first. Murong Ningyan demonstrated it to Lin Xi'er, and the smart Lin Xi'er learned it as soon as she learned it.
The next day, Murong Zifeng brought Lin Xi'er to Murong Ningyan early in the morning, and took out a dozen pieces of wood for Murong Ningyan to see if it met the requirements.
"Brother, I didn't expect your craftsmanship to be so exquisite, in fact, I asked you to do this yesterday, my heart is bottomless, if you make it thick, you can't use it, I didn't expect you to be able to process wood into crafts that are both thin and tough, Yan'er really admires you!"
"My brother is embarrassed to be praised by you, it's good to be able to use it!"
Then the three of them glued the drawn pieces of paper to the wooden chips, and in a few moments, a complete playing card was ready. Looking at the 54 exquisite poker cards, Murong Ningyan blossomed in his heart, but he didn't expect that in history, the poker of the Southern Tang Dynasty was invented by himself.
Murong Ningyan hurriedly taught Murong Zifeng and Lin Xi'er to fight the landlords, they are both smart people, they can learn it as soon as they learn it, and they can understand it at one point. There is something to do in the following days, Murong Zifeng and Lin Xi'er taught Ning Lu and Chen Muzhi again, although Chen Muzhi doesn't like to play very much, but he can also play, and he can always make a corner when there are few people. Murong Zifeng and Lin Xi'er are the most playful.
On this day, the sky was dark when they were fighting again, but Murong Ningyan was concentrating on embroidering the wedding dress on the side, and suddenly someone behind him said, "Why don't you embroider a phoenix dance for nine days?" ”
Murong Ningyan, who was concentrating on embroidering, was startled by this prominent voice, his finger was pricked by a needle, and suddenly blood beads bubbled up, and the person who came saw it panicked, and quickly put Murong Ningyan's finger into his mouth and sucked it.
It turned out that the emperor arrived, Murong Ningyan hurriedly pulled back his finger and wanted to salute, but was stopped by the emperor and said distressedly: "Yan'er, I'm sorry!" It's all bad for me, it hurts your fingers, right? ”
"Where does this little injury hurt, why didn't anyone report it when Your Majesty came?" Murong Ningyan said and turned his head to look at the poker players and the red sleeves.
"Don't blame them, I'm not going to let them make a noise."
The emperor was also very interested in poker, and when he learned that it was taught by Murong Ningyan, he immediately threw himself into the learning process. In a short time, he had defeated the invincible opponent in the world, and fought until dinner time.
The emperor asked everyone to stay in the Moon Pavilion for dinner, and suddenly said after the meal: "Murong Zifeng listens to the order, the male ambition is in all directions, you were born for my people of the Tang Dynasty, you should serve the country, seeing that you are agile and strong in martial arts, I now appoint you as my imperial guard, and you will take up your post today." ”
"Wechen obeys!"
The emperor turned his head to the others and said, "You will accompany Yan'er here more today, and the Murong guards will return to the palace with me." After speaking, he took Murong Zifeng and left.
Why did the emperor suddenly say that everyone should accompany Yan'er more? It made everyone feel a little inexplicable. Lin Xi'er heard that the emperor had appointed Murong Zifeng as the imperial guard, which meant that it would be difficult for the two of them to get tired of being together every day in the future, so they were happy and angry, obviously showing their sullenness.
Early the next morning, Jinling City was very lively, and a large group of people composed of officials of the Ministry of Rites, musicians, palace maids and eunuchs walked towards the Moon Pavilion with Grandpa Zeng, among which there was a large vermilion sedan chair that was particularly eye-catching.
This is the emperor's welcoming procession? Did Murong Ningyan choose to escape marriage this time? Or do you gladly accept it?
