Chapter 190 Undercurrent
Yuan Ning said: "That beautiful girl was originally a person with a white flag. I heard that her father is only a sixth-rank chief executive, not a famous person. He just had a little relationship with the concubine Rong in the palace. The third elder brother has been married for two years and has no heirs, so I plan to add a side Fujin to him. I heard that the daughter of the family is good-looking and has read some books, so I sent someone to look at it. It has been agreed that after the draft I pointed it to the third elder brother. Unexpectedly, a few days ago, Mr. Qian happened to meet the crown prince, and he lost his head and asked his own daughter to accompany him for a drink."

ah?Shuning blinked, wouldn't it?She asked: "But there was no problem during the physical examination of the show girl?"

Yuanning blushed a little, gave her an angry look, and said: "What did the third sister say?! Of course, how could the prince do such a thing? It's just that he is too lazy to argue with those people. Who knows that father and daughter The two shameless and skinless, actually lingering and lingering, they asked people to send east and west every three days, and the prince couldn't refuse, so they really thought they had climbed a high branch, and even the person sent by the concubine Rong to interrogate They also dare to be negligent. They publicized it outside, causing the crown prince to bear a bad name. The third elder brother also received a lot of gossip."

Shu Ning didn't care whether the prince was really that innocent or not, but said indifferently: "So that's the case, let me tell you, no matter how powerful Director Tang is, she won't dare to kill the show girl who has entered the re-election at will." Yes, presumably there must be a decree from the higher-ups to annoy that beautiful girl who is swinging between the prince and other elder brothers..." She paused, and suddenly became suspicious: "Fourth sister, where did you get this news from? "Looking at Yuanning's expression in the morning, he probably didn't know it, at least not so clearly.

Yuan Ning said with some doubts: "I heard some rumors from my elder brother and elder brother before, just now I was outside, and I accidentally met a sister from Yifei's empress palace..." She stopped talking, the expression on her face Look a little shocked.

Shu Ning knew that she and herself had gone together, and said slowly: "This matter involves the crown prince, the third elder brother, and the empress of the harem, so it should not be spread casually, that maid actually came here to tell you , you two are very close?" Could it be that Concubine Yi wanted to imply something...

The expression on Yuanning's face changed, and after a while, she opened her mouth and said, "I'm still wondering, it's just that when I went to the palace to greet the ladies, I met that palace lady a few times, and she actually told this kind of secret. It's just that after I heard it, my mind was so occupied that I didn't notice it... Oh, third sister, who ordered the execution of that beautiful girl? What does it have to do with Concubine Yi? Could there be something here? What's weird?"

Shu Ning thought for a while, and said: "Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with us. Just pretend you haven't heard of it, and don't tell anyone. But we still have to tell the second sister, lest... she will break into what a disaster..."

Yuanning bit her lips: "Just now when that court lady was talking to me, Jin Xu was also there...that's my friend..." Shuning said: "Tell her tomorrow, just tell her not to spread the word." No matter what Whether there is a conspiracy in it, she doesn't want to bother.In this palace, human life is as cheap as grass, and she still has to go out in peace and live a good life with her family. She really doesn't want to pay attention to these intrigues.

Yuan Ning saw that her face was pale, so she asked softly: "Third Sister, do you...remember about that beautiful girl who died today? Are you uncomfortable?" Shu Ning lowered her head and whispered: "Okay Of course, the person who was there will disappear in a blink of an eye, and this is the first time I have seen such a thing..."

Yuan Ning twitched the corners of her mouth and said: "When I first entered the palace to pay my respects, I was terrified when I saw someone being beaten to death, but after watching it a few times, I got used to it... You must never try to meddle in other people's business. People like us, no matter how pretentious we are, are nothing more than servants of the royal family..." She seemed to think of something, and the expression between her brows gradually became firm: "If you don't want to encounter the same thing, unless... we can find a way Let yourself be the master first."

Shu Ning was startled, looked up at Yuan Ning, and was about to say something, but she heard her wave her hand and said: "It's late, let's go to bed early, we have to get up early tomorrow." Then she called Yawn, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep.

There was no other way, Shuning had no choice but to pack up her things and turn on the light to sleep.It's just that he couldn't fall asleep all the time, and the scene of that beautiful girl being beaten to death today always appeared in his mind, and he woke up several times with cold sweat on his forehead.

She really lived a peaceful life for a long time, and she forgot that this is not an age of tenderness.Recalling the situation when the show girl was beaten and after her tragic death, although most of the show girls were a little scared, most of them quickly forgot the cruelty and only regarded it as something to talk about after dinner.Classes are clearly defined in this era, and people with low status may be executed by people with high status at any time, and others don't think there is anything wrong with it.However, for her, a traveler, she couldn't take it lightly anyway.

She missed her relatives and warm home like never before, and she couldn't bear to leave this gloomy and terrifying palace immediately.Unfortunately, this is just a delusion.

The official re-election starts tomorrow.Although the person with two yellow flags and two white flags was selected first, due to the small number of people, it won't be long before it's her turn.However, she has not yet made up her mind about the choice that has been bothering her since the past few days.

Although there is always a voice in her heart telling her that there may never be another person like Tongying who understands each other, has the same temperament, and has a good impression of each other. There is real emotion.She is not easily tempted, if she misses him, she may never meet someone she likes again in this life.At that time, even if she can marry a man of good character and good temper, and live a free life, she may feel empty.

However, although Tongying is so kind, the complexity of his family daunts her.Especially after seeing the horror of the palace, she always had concerns about Prince Jane's Mansion, which was called a small version of the harem by her mother.Recalling the first time when I returned to Beijing that year, the Earl's Mansion lived in four rooms, and the interpersonal relationship was already complicated like a mess.And Prince Jane's mansion has twelve sons alone, and there may be more in the future, and everyone has their own concubines, the twists and turns here may be...

How about moving out like Xinran and building your own little home?But she quickly dismissed the idea.Glad to be able to succeed, it was Yitai who asked his parents under the pretext of having a large family and insufficient housing, and that his younger brother was about to get married.If it was Tong Ying, if he had stayed in Beijing, then only his brother and two rooms would be in the huge Prince Jane's mansion, so that kind of excuse would not be successful.

However, it might not be so complicated if he only lives with his brother and sister-in-law.However, she seems to have heard that Tong Ying's sister-in-law intends to betroth her natal sisters to him. Will this cause discord between the sisters-in-law...

She was thinking wildly, maybe she was too frightened during the day, and she was mentally tired, and gradually, she finally fell asleep.

When she woke up the next day, she found that she had dark circles under her eyes. After thinking about it, she covered it up with powder.When drawing eyebrows, he hesitated for a moment and relaxed his hands and feet.

Seeing it from the side, Yuanning said, "It looks much better this way. The third sister's eyebrows were drawn so dark yesterday, which made her look ugly. I heard that my sister has learned how to make up. How did she look like that?"

Shuning laughed dryly: "It's just that my hands were heavy for a while..." She couldn't say it was intentional, could she?
Yuanning tidied up her whole body, looked left and right in the mirror, and said, "I'm going to look for Jinxu, my sister is done, then... let's go to the second sister, and find a suitable time to tell what happened last night. She..." Her voice became smaller and smaller, and then she went out without saying anything.Shuning looked at her back and smiled slightly.

After dressing up, she went to the next room to find Wanning.As soon as I entered the door, I saw the big girl combing Wanning's hair, and the latter gave some guidance from time to time: "That's not the case, I have to come back from the back, right, and then insert the flat square..." The big girl was sweating profusely , finally finished combing, Wanning turned her head to look in the mirror for a long time, then smiled and said: "Okay, the jewelry in the box and the clothes in the blue bag, you can take whichever you like, don't mess with it." Just be bad."

The big girl agreed, turned her head and smiled awkwardly at Shuning, and then went to look through the baggage.Shuning frowned, and when she heard Wanning greet her, she leaned over and whispered: "Second sister wants to lend something to big girl sister, why do you want her to help you comb your hair? Don't tell me you didn't learn it at home?"

Wan Ning casually said: "I only know the simplest hairstyles, and I don't know how to do these tricks. Anyway, she doesn't have any good clothes or jewelry, and she just happens to help each other. It's an exchange of equal value. Please help me see, this jade flower belt is crooked Already?"

Shu Ning helped her sort it out, and felt that this approach seemed inappropriate, but what Wan Ning said was also reasonable, so she put the matter aside for the time being.

The eldest girl picked out two golden flowers and a pair of jade bracelets, and a pink and purple silk cheongsam. After she was dressed, she took the small mirror she brought with her and took photos up and down, left and right, and then she happily asked Wanning Shu Ning said goodbye and took a step first.

Shu Ning watched her go out, and was about to tell Wan Ning about the news that Yuan Ning had heard back, when she heard someone outside "Ouch", and then cursed angrily: "You're blind!" ! Didn't you look at the road?!"

Shu Ning recognized Na Dan Zhu's voice at this time, and frowned, Wan Ning had already got up and opened the door to see what was going on, and she followed suit.

It turned out that Na Danzhu, Chang Lu and Da Niu bumped into each other at the corner. Chang Lu was still lying on the ground with tears in her eyes, and her clan sister was helping her up.The big girl said to Na Danzhu tremblingly: "You...how can you say that? You were the one who bumped into me..."

Na Danzhu raised her eyebrows and snorted coldly: "Do you know who I am? What are you? How dare you talk to me like that?!" The big girl trembled and was speechless.Chang Lu, who just stood up, was even more tearful.Her clan sister was brave enough to help question Na Danzhu.When the beautiful girls in other rooms heard the sound, they all opened their windows or went out to watch.

Aunt Wen Jing arrived soon, and upon seeing this, she said to Na Danzhu, "My lord, this is the imperial palace. It's really against the rules to yell and scream in the early morning. Please be careful with your words and deeds." Na Dan Seeing that everyone was glaring at her, Zhu Zhu said unconvinced: "This is none of your business, don't provoke me, you know who I am..."

"My servant naturally knows who you are, but as the maid in charge of this matter, everything in Zhongcui Palace is related to me. Please be careful with your words and deeds, Princess." Wen Jing pushed back indifferently , without waiting for Na Danzhu to refute, he announced directly: "Breakfast has been prepared in the main hall, please come and enjoy it, my little masters."

The show girls started moving one after another. The eldest girl looked at Na Danzhu timidly, and walked away quickly, which made her so angry that she stomped her feet and wanted to go back to the room, shouting: "Bring the breakfast to my room!" !" Turning around, seeing Shu Ning standing in front of her, she glared fiercely and bumped into her.Shu Ning hurriedly took two steps back before avoiding it, but accidentally bumped into another show girl watching the excitement.

She hurriedly apologized to the beautiful girl, but the other party smiled indifferently and said, "I don't care." Someone nearby called out, "Xiaoxue, let's go, let's have breakfast." The beautiful girl responded and smiled at Shuning. With a smile, he turned and left.

Wan Ning asked: "Do you know that princess? Do you have any grudges?" Shu Ning just smiled: "It's nothing, it's just a bad relationship when I was a child. I have already forgotten it, but she still remembers it." Wan Ning She tilted her head and thought for a while: "Is she the princess of Mongolia? I remember...she seems to have been to our house..."

Shu Ning hurriedly interrupted her and said: "Sister Chang Lu, you didn't fall just now, did you?" So it was Chang Lu who came over.She smiled shyly and said, "I'm fine. Sister Wan, your clothes are so pretty."

Wanning is wearing a new outfit that was rushed out just before the draft today.Light green chiffon, light yellow trim, only half of the sleeves are made of light pink tulle, because it is double-layered, it does not look transparent.There is no embroidery in the whole dress, which is rare and refreshing.Wearing it on Wanning's body makes her even more attractive.

Wanning was already proud of her regular clothes, and she couldn't hide her joy when she heard Chang Lu's words: "Really? It's just so-so, and the clothes my sister wears are also very beautiful."

But Chang Lu said very seriously: "I think it looks very good. If my sister wears it to participate in the re-election, she will definitely be the most beautiful one."

A smile appeared on Wanning's face when she heard someone beside her sneer and say, "You are dressed so fancy, I don't know who you want to seduce." The woman, with slender eyes and high nose bridge, looked at her with contempt.

She immediately responded: "What do you mean by that? How can I seduce people?!"

"I didn't name names, so you think I'm talking about you." The beautiful girl curled her lips and said with a sneer, "Look at your appearance, you really deserve what I say."

Wanning was so angry that her face turned red, and she was about to rush forward.Shu Ning secretly thought it was not good, and was about to hold her back, but someone was one step ahead of her, holding Wan Ning, but it was Chang Lu.She could only hear her persuading: "Good sister, don't argue, it would be bad if my aunt heard it."

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived, Wen Jing just entered the backyard at this time, Wanning glanced at her, then pouted at the beautiful girl: "Ugly people do mischief, I know you are jealous of me."

"You!" That beautiful girl held back her breath, "Just wait and see!" Then she stomped away.

Chang Lu persuaded Wanning, "It's not good, so don't make trouble with her, we should get along well."

Shu Ning felt that this sentence was a bit wrong, but before she could think about it, Yuan Ning had already come over: "Why is Second Sister arguing with someone again?"

Wanning said coldly: "You don't have to worry about my affairs." Yuanning frowned and stared at her.

Shuning suddenly felt a headache.
