Chapter 168: The Six Princesses Are Also There
The next day, the sky was slightly bright, and Ye Lingwu brought the boiled ginseng soup from the kitchen to the main house.
The buildings in the south are different from those in the north, exquisite and delicate, a garden of mountains and rivers, turn a few corners to the main house, Ye Lingwu opened the warm curtain with one hand, and saw Mrs. Shen sitting on the top, with her hand wrapped around the rosary.
At the bottom sat Shen Zhan, who was wearing a black beast hair and a golden and purple crown, and behind him was Yue Yang, who was wearing a mink satin robe.
Ye Lingwu paused for a moment, and then stepped in: "Old lady, your ginseng soup is ready." ”
Passing by Shen Zhan and Yue Yang while speaking, she blessed her body lightly, "Please Hou Ye'an, please Yue Yang's little general."
Shen Zhan bowed slightly. Yue Yang clenched his fists and replied, "Cousin Ann." ”
Mrs. Shen took the ginseng soup and said, "Ling girl has a heart, although the climate in the southern region is a little warmer than that of the capital, but the coolness is still the same, it is better to wear more clothes, you look at you, you don't know what to wear." ”
Ye Lingwu said: "It's the old lady, you will go back to add clothes after Lingwu finishes serving." ”
Old Mrs. Shen nodded and said, "By the way, Bang Zhou said that he wanted to invite the Zhizhou Mansion to the hall of the outer courtyard in the afternoon, and a few adults such as Nan went to the mansion to talk about it, you will go to the outer courtyard later, and help the main mother and Yu's mother more." ”
Ye Lingwu responded, and the soup bowl from Mrs. Shen's hand withdrew from the main house.
There were two little female envoys guarding the door, and after Ye Lingwu handed them the bowl, he led Rongxiu to Yuexi Zhai.
After having dinner at noon, Ye Lingwu thought that the New Year was coming and the lanterns in the house were not festive enough, so he led a few small servants to prepare to replace the lanterns inside and outside the gate of the mansion.
"A little to the left...... Too left...... A little to the right. Ye Lingwu stood in the courtyard ten steps away from the gate, looking worriedly at the two red lanterns at the inner door, which were always aligned.
“…… No, no, the one on the left is a little lower. Ye Lingwu stepped back as he spoke, only half a step back, and his back suddenly touched a warm hardness.
Ye Lingwu was startled, turned around and looked up suddenly, only to see the man's eyes staring at her like nails, his eyes narrowed into a line, revealing a bit of coldness and gloom.
She hurriedly took a few steps sideways, and said with her head bowed: "Master Hou." ”
Shen Zhan nodded, and said in a deep voice: "It's good to leave this kind of trivial matter to the female envoy, aren't you feeling unwell, why haven't you rested much?" ”
"It's uncomfortable, but it's good to sleep well, thank you for your concern."
"It's just a superficial greeting, it's not a concern."
Ye Lingwu raised his head suddenly, on the surface, and in his heart: Heh!
Without saying a word, Shen Zhan took Yue Yang out of the house.
After the lantern was hung up, Ye Lingwu was also ready to warm up and rest, and as soon as he moved his pace, he heard the sound of reining horses outside the house, and the sound of the wheels grunting and slowly stopping.
Ye Lingwu turned around and saw that the sixth princess actually got off the carriage, and there were six female envoys and two martial maids around the carriage.
The national mourning period of the royal family has not yet passed, and today she is wearing a red velvet collar brocade cloak with a snow-colored lining, which is very bright, like a red lantern, covered in gold and silver, shining.
"You little girl is also coming to Yuhuan City." The sixth princess spoke in a casual and arrogant tone, and entered the house with her posture.
Ye Lingwu's eyes were faint and she couldn't see her emotions, and looked at her silently.
The sixth princess sighed from her nose and said disdainfully: "I asked you to put it up last time, and this account has not been settled with you yet, so since you have also come to Yuhuan City," she slowly approached Ye Lingwu, hooked the corners of her mouth and whispered, "Then let's see." ”
After speaking, he led a large group of female envoys to the hall.
Rong Xiu glanced back at the six princesses, and turned to Ye Lingwu: "Girl, these six princesses still have a grudge against you, we have to stay away in the future, so as not to let the old lady know that we will be punished again." ”
"I know." Ye Lingwu's tone was inaudible, with a little weakness.
In the past, she may still have the heart to fight, to fight for her worthless dignity, but now she can't, the other party is a noble girl from the heavenly family, even if she gambles with her life, she can't shake the slightest person, and Mrs. Shen is her only hope in the Hou Mansion, she has to try her best to please and can't cause trouble.
When Ye Lingwu opened the warm curtain and entered, the sixth princess was trying her best to please Qin Mingyu, talking about how she watched Shen Zhan govern the evil things in the city these days, and everyone was very happy to listen.
The sixth princess, who was still happy, saw Ye Lingwu come in in a blink of an eye, and laughed and mocked: "I didn't know that there was a cousin girl in the Hou Mansion before, aunt, when did the Hou Mansion in Ningbei even take care of a little girl from the countryside?" ”
Ye Lingwu didn't say a word, and sat down silently, but Shen Pan'er couldn't listen to it, and said: "Sister Lingwu was raised in my grandmother's yard, and the sixth princess can ask my grandmother if she has any opinions, what do you say grandmother?" ”
Old Mrs. Shen's face changed slightly, she put down the tea bowl in her hand, and said with a light smile: "Little girl bickering, what are you doing when you pull the elders out?" ”
Shen Pan'er was deflated, and the sixth princess had to inch in and said: "Look at the relationship between Pan'er's sister and this Lingwu girl is very good, I am just curious to ask, how can I still need to move out of the old lady." Old lady, if Hongling said the wrong thing just now, it will not be with you. ”
In the last two sentences, the sixth princess looked at the top and said.
Old Mrs. Shen didn't speak, she slowly picked up the tea bowl and took another sip, before she said: "The adults of the Zhizhou Mansion are also about to arrive, and the girl Ling will go to see if the banquet in the hall is ready for me and the housewife, and the tea and snacks can't be sloppy." ”
Ye Lingwu got up and responded, and went out with a blessing to everyone.
The sixth princess's face sank, and she looked at the top one quietly. Mrs. Shen said that she didn't participate in their "bickering", but now she let Ye Lingwu take charge of the master, the meaning of which is self-evident, this is a change of hair and slapping her in the face.
Bypassing the warm pavilion and walking for a while, Ye Lingwu led Rongxiu into the house, only to see more than a dozen female envoys carrying pastries shuttling between the empty seats, in an orderly manner.
"I heard that Xiao Marquis Shen hasn't just left the house to do business, so it's really early."
Ye Lingwu looked back at the voice, and saw that the person who came was still an acquaintance.
It was Mrs. Lou who spoke, and several adults stood beside him, and the only one who attracted Ye Lingwu to take a look was Jiang Yuan.
His face was slightly pale and weak, with a smile, he was draped in a snow-white fluffy coat, and his hands were wrapped in a small white jade stove, and his fingers were as slender as jade, as if he could not distinguish each other from the jade furnace. He was flanked by a grandmother of about fifty.
- This is a gathering of civil officials in the capital.
Ye Lingwu stepped forward slowly, raised his arm and said, "Please be safe, adults." ”
Mrs. Lou touched her long beard and said, "It turned out to be Miss Lingwu, I thought it was Miss Shen San when I looked at the back, I haven't seen you for a long time, you have grown taller again, and you are becoming more and more like a big girl." By the way, when will Shen Xiaohou come back? ”
- "Ladies and gentlemen, came early today. ”
Everyone looked for the sound and saw Shen Zhan walking with a halo on his back, and only following Yue Yang behind him had suppressed the momentum in the house.
is also a powerful person in the dynasty, and the temperament of the military generals is really very different from this group of civil officials.
