little wife

Chapter 13

It was Jing Yun who was arguing with Ning Zhenchuan.

At this time, Jing Yun had not yet entered the official position, but because he was favored by the imperial court, Emperor Wen specially bestowed him with the title of "Emperor's Constant Companion". Juzheng's third-rank Zhongshu Ling is like the sun in the middle of the court.

A young man became famous and showed his sharpness; the other was in a high position and was full of glory. The two stood opposite each other, attracting passers-by's frequent glances.

As far as the dispute is concerned, Jing Yun just stood silently in front of Ning Zhenchuan, without saying a word, but he was half a head taller than Ning Zhenchuan, and his handsome figure was ready to emerge from Lie Lie's sleeves, his eyes were solemn, The thin lips were pursed tightly, but it seemed that he had the upper hand.

Ning Zhenchuan seldom gets angry like this, let alone when facing Jing Yun.Ning Luo felt anxious, and walked up to them in a few steps: "I thought Daddy had become stupid and couldn't figure out my little trick. So it was here that I ran into Brother Jing."

When Ning Zhenchuan saw his daughter, his anger froze: "The white chicken has been cooked by the chef, why is Luo'er so greedy, can't wait for a while?"

"How could it be?" Ning Luo said softly, "Luo'er came here to have a look because she was thinking about her father. I heard that Guiyunju has recently released a lot of new dishes. It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun. Why not invite me to eat today?" Shall I have dinner here?"

Ning Zhenchuan readily agreed, and was about to take Ning Luo inside when Jing Yun called out behind him: "Lord Ning."

Ning Zhenchuan's face sank: "Mr. Jing, what else can I ask for advice?"

Jing Yun chuckled lightly and said: "Yuan's request is nothing more than practicing martial arts and joining the army. It is related to Yuan's lifelong ideals and future, but Mr. Ning would rather turn a blind eye to it; on the contrary, Miss Nine's food preferences are clearly remembered, Mr. Ning Treating a pair of children is unavoidable."

"My family affairs don't need Mr. Jing's beak." Ning Zhenchuan said coldly.

"I was the one to be abrupt, Lord Ning forgive me." Although Jing Yun's words were apologetic, his expression did not change at all, and he turned around proudly and left.

Ning Luo followed closely and whispered, "Brother Jing, wait..."

Jing Yun stopped but didn't look back, and said in a strange way: "I don't know what the nine girls have to teach?"

Ning Luo was very frustrated. Since she was reborn, everything went well with her, but with Jing Yun, instead of being close to her in her previous life, she became more and more cold and distant.

What does it have to do with Ning Zhenchuan forcing Ning Heng to follow the text? Why was he forced to be angered by Jing Yun?

She felt aggrieved, and walked around to Jing Yun in a few steps: "There is a saying in the ancients, if you don't vent your anger, you can't do anything wrong. I asked my father to bring some white chopped chicken for dinner. Why does it seem like I have committed some serious crime?"

Those pair of dark black pupils stared straight at it. There seemed to be a clear mountain spring inside, and it was getting closer. Ning Luo's skin was fat and torn, and the thin fluff was faintly visible. Inadvertently, a A light fragrance entered the nostrils.

Jing Yun couldn't help taking a step back in embarrassment, trying to catch his mind.

Ning Luo was even more sad, her chest heaved sharply, and she gritted her teeth in her heart: Okay, Jing Yunxi, Jing Yunxi, you hate me so much, okay, I don't care about you...

Jing Yun unconsciously softened his tone and explained: "Yuan Zhi got drunk at my place yesterday and refused to go home."

Ning Luo was startled... Could it be that the scene of father and son's enmity will be staged in advance in this life?

"Yuanzhi and I are the same as before. Yuanzhi is talented in martial arts and tactics. With Master Ning's move, General Chen will lose one general, and Yuanzhi will be mediocre all his life. Neither the country nor oneself is a good thing." Jing Yun frowned slightly, and his sword-shaped eyebrows furrowed beautifully.

Ning Luo's heart softened, and she blurted out: "You tell my brother not to be discouraged, as long as he takes part in Chunwei and the army, I'll persuade my father."

Jing Yun's eyes lit up, and the eyes that fell on her finally showed some approval, and he nodded indifferently: "That's it, please."

Looking at the back of Jing Yun going away, Ning Luo couldn't help but smile wryly: Jing Yun and Ning Heng were siblings in the previous life, and after Ning Heng died, Jing Heng was entrusted with caring for her even more, and wrote letters from time to time asking her In daily life, he also collects a lot of rare things and sends them to Prince Rui's mansion from time to time. Maybe it's because he loves houses and crows, so Eunuch Yu mistakenly thinks that he has a special liking for her.

With this thought in mind, Ning Luo returned to Ning Zhenchuan in a dispirited manner. Ever since Ning Zhenchuan became an official of Zhongshuling, the court affairs were busy and the father and daughter had little communication. This time Ning Zhenchuan happened to have With such a little spare time, he enthusiastically asked for a private room and ordered a table of good dishes. The one in the middle was Gui Yunju's Boiled Chicken.

This white chopped chicken is specially raised by Guiyunju on Beigu Mountain. The chicken is silky and chewy, and it is served with the sauce specially prepared by the restaurant. It is extremely delicious.

In Ning Luo's previous life, she was lingering on a sick bed, and all the delicacies in her mouth only had the word "bitter". Now she is in good health, salivating for these delicious delicacies that have not been seen for nearly eight years. He quickly brought the chicken to him: "Aren't you hungry all day? Eat something else. This Yuluochun is also Guiyunju's famous dish. Try it."

At this time, the spring tide is rising, which is a good season to eat snails. The jade snails of Guiyunju come from the Qingmi River in the suburbs of Beijing. They are blended with special seasoning.Ning Luo ate another half of the bowl, the delicious food was comforting, and the chest that was blocked by Jing Yun just now gradually showed signs of easing up.

Looking up inadvertently, she realized that Ning Zhenchuan was looking at her with great interest, and she couldn't help but coquettishly said: "Father, is there a flower on my daughter's face?"

"There are no flowers," Ning Zhenchuan said with a smile, "I just feel that Luo'er is a little different from before."

Ning Luo was stunned. Although they were father and daughter, if they didn't know about such a shocking incident, then they would not be complicated: "What's different?"

Ning Zhenchuan looked at his daughter, his slender eyelashes flickering, his eyes were clear and transparent, showing an increasingly attractive beauty these days.

Ning Luo inherited Qin Xianglan's gracefulness and beauty from Jiangnan, and also uniquely inherited his elegance and calmness.If he really wanted to know what was different, he couldn't say, but he felt that his daughter was a little less cautious in her words and deeds, a little more wanton and innocent, and more caring.This is very good, Ning Luo is only in his teens, and it is time to enjoy being pampered in the boudoir. He actually doesn't like the style of a noble lady like a sister-in-law.

Putting two chopsticks of sliced ​​lotus root in honey sauce into Ning Luo's plate, he smiled and said, "The face is much rounder."

Ning Luo breathed a sigh of relief, then became worried in a blink of an eye, touched her face and said, "Really? I've been eating and drinking at home every day these days, so I can't be lazy tomorrow, it's time to go to the academy."

"My Luo'er looks good no matter what," the pride in Ning Zhenchuan's eyes flashed. Indeed, Ning Luo's light smile was like a splashed ink landscape, charming and beautiful with a different charm, which made people move Don't open your eyes, no wonder...

As soon as he thought of this, the door was pushed open. A young man was tall and tall, with gentle eyes and a suave paper fan in his hand. The corner of his mouth smiled and said: "Master Ning, it's better to meet by chance than to invite you, but here you are." Yunju met."

Ning Zhenchuan immediately stood up, saluted respectfully and said, "So it's His Royal Highness King Rui, it's the lower officials who were rude."

With a sound of "clang", the white jade plate fell to the ground and broke in two. The two of them froze for a moment, and looked at Ning Luo in unison.

Ning Luo's face was pale, and her eyes flicked past Yang Yan's body, then she lowered her head to stare at the white jade plate on the ground, and murmured: "It's broken..."

Yang Yan gave instructions to Ning Luo and walked quickly to Ning Luo's side, and said softly, "Sister Luo, is she scared? It's just a plate, it's fine."

"I..." Ning Luo flinched involuntarily. Since her rebirth, everything in the past seems to have gradually faded away. At this time, the nightmare from happiness to hell suddenly appeared in her face together with this face. In her mind, she shuddered, "I... I'm fine... Your Highness Wan'an."

Resisting the desire to take the road away, she bowed to Yang Yan.

The great-grandfather of the Ning family used to be married to the royal family. Counting from fingers, Ning Luo and Yang Yan are inextricably related. What's more, Ning Luo was often called into the palace by the late Empress Minghui because she was cute and icy when she was a child. Playing with the prince and princess of the same age, Yang Yan had already been fostered under the knees of Empress Minghui at that time, and he and Ning Luo could be regarded as childhood sweethearts. The relationship between the two has always been good, and it is impossible to avoid it completely.

Thinking about it now, Yang Yan at that time might have planned to win over her, the daughter of an important minister, and let the entire Ningguo government, together with his father and elder brother, stand behind him. You can only kill them.

"Is Luo Mei's injury healed?" Yang Yan's eyes were full of concern, "A few days ago when I went to pay a visit to the house, you happened to be away, so I was really worried."

"His Royal Highness is worried, it's ready," Ning Luo squeezed out a smile, "I can go to the academy tomorrow."

"That's good," Yang Yan said with a smile, "I went to Huizhou to bring you a set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones from Shuijintang. I didn't expect to meet you today without bringing them with you, so I sent them to the academy tomorrow. "

"This...is too costly for His Highness," Ning Luo declined, "I don't need such a good item, so it's better for His Highness to use it for himself."

Yang Yan was startled, and said softly, "Sister Luo, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly have sex with me?"

Ning Luo was startled, she only cared about separating the relationship with Yang Yan, but forgot that the man who had almost ascended to the supreme position had a keen mind and a deep scheming mind.

She glanced at Yang Yan quickly, and said softly: "I understand His Highness's good intentions, but I always receive rewards for nothing, and I feel very sorry."

Ning Luo was beautiful in the first place, but this glance brought the shyness unique to her daughter's family. Yang Yan's heart was shaken when he saw it, and he pretended to be angry and said: "If Sister Luo is so stubborn, I will return those things to Shuijintang Forget it."

Ning Zhenchuan quickly smoothed things over: "Your Highness is full of hospitality, Luo'er is so welcome."

The shopkeeper came over to clean up the debris on the ground. Ning Zhenchuan politely asked Yang Yan to sit down beside him and offered him a glass of Biluochun. Ning Luo stood beside Ning Zhenchuan with hands down, listening to the two chatting quietly.

I have to admit that Yang Yan at this time does not show any ambition at all. He behaves elegantly, speaks knowledgeably, and looks like a gentleman of Zhuo Shijia.

Ning Luo became more and more apprehensive, and wanted to remind Ning Zhenchuan to go home quickly, but she was worried that Taoist Qiushui and the others hadn't left yet.

When the door curtain was lifted, someone came in again, and Ning Luo saw that it was Yu Gonggong Yu An.At this time, Eunuch Yu was only in his late thirties, his face was white and beardless, and his small eyes shone with shrewdness. Eunuch Yu had been by Yang Yan's side since he was a child, and he was loyal to Yang Yan. Later, he got mixed up with Zhao Daiyun for some reason. He has his part in turning black and white.

Eunuch Yu whispered a few words next to Yang Yan, Yang Yan nodded, and then stood up: "Master Ning, I still have something to do, so I won't bother you. I'll ask you for advice next time when I have time."

Ning Zhenchuan smiled and said, "Your Highness, you are welcome."

"Sister Luo, Bao Ning often mentions you, come and accompany her when you are fully recovered." Yang Yan invited softly, his eyes were long and narrow, with the tails of his eyes slightly raised, looking at Ning Luo with focused and gentle eyes.

With a slight smile on the corner of Ning Luo's mouth, she avoided his gaze calmly: "I also miss the fifth princess very much, and I will visit her in a few days."

Yang Yan was a little disappointed, but in the evening he invited a few celebrities who were going to Beijing for the exam to discuss poetry and prose, and he couldn't stay long, so he had to leave first.

Only then did Ning Luo let out a long sigh of relief, and sat back at the Eight Immortals table, poking the pot of lotus root slices with regret on her face: "The dishes are all cold."

Ning Zhenchuan didn't respond for a long time, Ning Luo raised her head in wonder, only to see Ning Zhenchuan looking at her with a smile.

"Father, what's wrong with you?" Ning Luo pouted.

"My family has a young girl." Ning Zhenchuan actually showed a narrow smile on his calm face, "Luo'er has passed fourteen in the blink of an eye. In my opinion, there is no telling when she will be born." The matchmaker came to propose marriage."
