Yan Cigui.

Chapter 189 Ning An Distressed
Liu Jing lowered his eyes halfway.

How are you feeling?

He knew it himself, his throat was very blocked.

But he can't show it, he can only do business as usual.

Yesterday when he returned home from Yamen, Liu Xun was lying quietly on the bed. Liu Jing was surprised by his honesty. After listening to Guanshi Tao, he found out about the gift of the inkstone.

An inkstone is a very appropriate gift.

From the little boy in Kaimeng to the old man with white hair, regardless of gender, as long as they can read and write, they can't go wrong with the inkstone.

But it was delivered in a poor way.

Tao Guanshi himself also reflected: "At that time, I was in a hurry, and the young master was in a hurry. The young one ran to the Duke's mansion for fear of delaying the matter, and didn't care about it. After I came back, I thought about it. A more delicate box, wrapped in a layer of red cloth."

Liu Jing frowned when he heard this: "Xun'er has no experience and can't remember these basic etiquettes. You are an old man, how can you forget them?"

Such is the rule of human relations.

No matter how much he thinks about Xu Jian, it should be whitewashed beautifully.

After all the things have been given away, can you be less beautiful?

Who doesn't like a good look?
When looking at objects, first look at the box, and when looking at people, first look at the facial features.

Of course, with the relationship between Xu Jian and their father and son, even if Xun'er gave a gold box and a silver box, Xu Jian would not take a second look.

But who asked Eunuch Cao to be present?

What kind of person is Eunuch Cao, how can he not have any idea when he looks at such an ordinary box?
When he returned to the imperial court, he might not bring this trivial matter to the Holy Majesty, but if something happened in the future, when the old matter was brought up again, the small matter might become a big one.

Liu Jing has seen many such situations in officialdom.

Seeing Liu Xun's sleepy look, Liu Jing didn't go in to talk about anything, fearing that the more he said it, the more it would be counterproductive, so he just went to the backyard.

Xu Miao was naturally happy.

Such is her character.

The title of the princess and the heart of the empress dowager that others see are ranked last among her.

"I heard that she has a good temperament. Although she was spoiled and brought up, she doesn't have a spoiled temper."

"She looks good too. I remember that I met her in a shop last year. I asked my mother at that time, 'Which girl is so cute', and they told me it was Ning'an County. host."

"Good-looking, good-natured, A-Jian must like such a girl."

"It's a good thing that Ah Jian will have someone to take care of her in the future."

"I chose all afternoon and decided on these ceremonies. I want to go to the Duke's mansion tomorrow, and the master will go over the details for me."

Liu Jing made a final decision for her, and asked her to give it decently, but also suspected that she might not listen.

After all, from Xu Miao's point of view, she was just carrying some presents back to her mother's house, so what kind of ostentation was needed?
Because of Liu Xun's lack of energy, Xu Miao had her own thoughts on these matters, Liu Jing thought of the ups and downs of the whole day, and didn't sleep well all night.

Waking up early in the morning, looking in the mirror to straighten his appearance, the blue color in front of his eyes is even scarier than when he was pretending.

He had no choice but to cover up with Xu Miao's face powder.

Thanks to his fair appearance, some powder won't be too abrupt.

If it is as dark as An Yibo...

Thinking of this, Liu Jing raised his eyelids to look at Uncle An Yi, and then looked away.

Out of sight is pure.

When the wind is headed, bow your head more and keep quiet to go far.

If he gets close at this moment, he will only make fun of himself.

After staying in the morning court, Xu Jian went to the imperial study to thank her.

The Holy Majesty changed his court clothes and was in high spirits.

After Eunuch Xiao returned to the palace yesterday, he also came to him to report the situation of Bo Chengyi's acceptance of the order, plus what Eunuch Cao said about his thoughts in Fuguo's mansion, Longxin was very happy.

Is it deserted in the Duke's mansion?

Don't be afraid!
Sincerity uncle's mansion is so lively. A girl raised in a family with many children and many blessings, if she marries into the Duke's mansion, won't she bring her popularity there?
As the holy master, he is very particular about the marriage with this hand and the balance with this hand, which is very excellent!
I feel better and sleep well.

The Holy Majesty is very pleasing to everyone today.

After Xu Jian saluted and thanked him, he said again: "I will go to the Palace of Compassion and Ning with you later, and let Ning An also kowtow to me."

While talking, Li Shao came.

Seeing Xu Jian was there, Li Shao opened his mouth and asked His Majesty, "Why didn't you point out a marriage for him, but didn't point out one for me?"

Xu Jian glanced at Li Shao.

It can be heard that Li Shao said the words from his mouth without thinking or distracting, just talking casually without any extra emotion.

The Holy Majesty also understood it, and said with a tusk: "Speaking nonsense again!"

Xu Jian is a courtier, and marriage is easy to handle.

Shao'er is the crown prince. How can the concubine want her mother to honor the world in the future?

Even if you want to refer to Liangdi Liangyuan, there are many influences to consider.

Outside, the servant reported that the princess had arrived at the Palace of Compassion.

The Holy Majesty got up and left the imperial study.

On the other side, Lin Yunyan walked into the warm pavilion with a smile on her face.

The empress dowager sat leaning back, and when she saw her coming, she couldn't help laughing: "I'm always thinking about you."

Lin Yunyan stepped forward, seeing that Wang Momo only smiled but didn't move, she said, "You read me, but why didn't you put a soft cushion? Your Majesty wants me to kneel on the floor today?"

"Who's willing?" The Empress Dowager smiled and pulled her to sit down, "I'll salute after Xu Jian arrives. It's okay for you to kowtow now, and then do another kowtow later."

Yu Jia came very quickly.

Lin Yunyan got up and went outside to meet the driver, she was quite surprised to see Li Shao following him.

When the Holy Majesty sat down on the other side of the Empress Dowager, the maids hurriedly arranged two cushions.

Xu Jian took a step forward, then turned her head to look at Lin Yunyan.

Looking at each other, Lin Yunyan pursed her lips and smiled, revealing a slight dimple on the side of her face.

Xu Jian looked away, bent her left leg first, then her right leg, and knelt down on the cushion.

Lin Yunyan didn't delay either, she knelt obediently, bowed her body and saluted.

Speaking of which, she rarely saw Xu Jian kneeling.

In the past, both legs were crippled, and I couldn't even kneel. I was usually exempted from the ceremony, and I had to kneel only when I "confessed".

She tried her best to support her, but Xu Jian would put all her weight on the arm supporting the ground, and tried her best to stabilize her figure.

Kneeling so "relaxedly", it seemed that this was the first time she saw her.

But even so, Lin Yunyan could tell that Xu Jian was not comfortable kneeling.

His body looked straight, but the weight was on the left side, and he didn't dare to exert force on his right leg.

Or it's too cold to hurt.

The earlier you salute, the earlier you stand up, the earlier you feel more comfortable.

The Holy One and the Empress Dowager received great gifts.

According to the rules, the two of them had to exhort and explain a few words.

Just as the Holy Majesty was about to speak, he saw Lin Yunyan's body crooked, she didn't kneel down, and fell slightly.

The Empress Dowager couldn't see her cleverness, she gave her a look with a smile, and said, "Okay, get up."

The Holy Majesty also reacted, and he couldn't help but laugh: "Okay! Ning'an feels sorry for her. The queen mother is a good person, and I am not a wicked person. They all stand up and speak up."
