twin daughters

Chapter 60
"I said Miss Xiaotao, your embroidery work is so good, is it interesting to still embroider? Why don't you practice lightness kung fu, so as not to slow me down when you do things."

After eating the melon seeds, Nu'er went to grab the cakes on the plate again. Xiaotao slapped her claws that were stretching towards the cakes next to her, and said angrily, "Eat again, be careful of getting fat, or you will be miserable if you don't get married!"

"Hmph!" Nu'er stretched her claws towards Li Xiaotao's plate of pastries, "Aren't you very fat yourself, you should be careful that you won't get married!"

Yi Jinning got up and walked to the bronze mirror, Xiaotao quickly put down her embroidery work and came over to do her makeup.

"Xiaotao already has a sweetheart!" Yi Jinning picked up the comb, "It's Azhu!"

There was a bang, and there was a loud noise outside the door, which seemed to be the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.Yi Jinning leaned forward and backward with a smile, pointed at Xiaotao and said, "Hahaha, Azhu was surprised when he heard that, why isn't Xiaotao surprised at all?"

Xiaotao pouted, "You said that, I didn't!"

At this moment, Azhu pushed the door open and came in, he looked at Yi Jinning with a serious expression, "Master, Xiaotao is not good enough for me!"

"Hey, what are you talking about, dead wood!" Xiaotao rushed to him, pointed at her nose and said, "Tell me, why am I not good enough for you?"

dead wood?Yi Jinning almost burst out laughing, isn't that what Luo Xiaoxiao called that man!

She looked at Xiao Tao and A Zhu meaningfully, "You guys are tricky!"

"no!"

"no!"

The two spoke in unison.

"Tsk tsk, you still say no, even the words are the same, and the tone is the same." Nu'er swallowed the last bite of pastries, looking at this and that, "Here, the movements are the same."

"Okay, I was defeated by you!" Xiaotao shrugged helplessly, "I admit, I like this wood, but he doesn't understand style, and now I don't like him anymore!"

A Zhu was surprised, with a nervous expression, "Why don't you like it again?"

Are these two really having fun?Yi Jinning was joking at first, but now it seems that they really hit each other.

"You..." Nu'er and Yi Jinning spoke in unison again.

"You guys are so bad, I'll ignore you!" Xiaotao was furious, she stomped her feet and ran out.Just halfway through the run, he bumped into Xiaoru who hurried to announce the good news.

"Miss, I'm so happy!" Xiao Ru said happily, "The young master has won the first prize, and now the announcer is in the hall. The master asked you to go there to receive the order!"

Yi Jinning looked outside vigilantly, but fortunately there was no one there.She just wanted to tell A Zhu to disappear quickly, but found that he had long since disappeared.

This speed...

"What does it matter to me that the eldest brother won the ranking?" Yi Jinning said lazily, "It's not that I won the number one prize, why do you want me to accept the order?"

Xiao Ru said anxiously, "Miss, a father-in-law came to the palace and said he was here to announce the decree. He also asked you to listen to the decree together. Everyone is here, and now I'm waiting for you alone."

She was also surprised, why did the father-in-law from the palace ask the lady to listen to the order, but no one else did?Even the eldest lady and the eldest wife were not called to listen!Could it be that some prince fell in love with the young lady and wanted to give her a marriage?

"Oh?"

Yi Jinning's tone was a little displeased, and it may not be a good thing for the father-in-law to announce his decree to find her.She guessed that it might be the matter that the queen mother wanted to give her a marriage last time, the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt.

"I don't want to go, you tell my father that I'm not feeling well!" She walked to the couch and lay down, angrily.

The good mood of the day was ruined, and her bad mood couldn't be made up by her brother's ranking.

"Okay, I'll go and tell the master right now!" Xiao Ru retreated wearily.

The whole bamboo garden suddenly fell into emptiness, Xiaotao laughed and said, "Miss, don't be unhappy, maybe it's a good thing!"

"Good things will only ask me to go alone? Why didn't my mother go? Why didn't my sister go?" She fanned herself angrily.If it was really a good thing, would her right eyelid twitch so much?
After a while, Xiao Ru came back.

"Miss, the father-in-law announced the decree just now, saying that you will accompany the master and the eldest young master into the palace. Um... the emperor held a palace banquet and invited the top three winners and their families to celebrate everyone's achievements. "

After Xiaoru finished speaking in one breath, she let out a soft breath.

"Understood!" Yi Jinning lay back on the couch, thinking that something really happened!

If I had known that my brother would not be allowed to take the exam, and he would take her with him after winning the list, how could she be so unlucky and tragically missed!
The next day, Yi Jinning was called up early to dress up, and Yi Changhua specially told her to dress up.This is a special banquet. The emperor has never hosted candidates who are ranked in the rankings to a palace banquet before. This time it is a precedent.

The long corridor of the palace had nine twists and eighteen bends. Yi Jinning followed his father and elder brother and was led by several nuns, making him a little dizzy.

The banquet this time was no small matter. The emperor first showed his determination to reuse talents, and secondly, he gave those talented people a chance to inspire their fighting spirit.

After taking the seat, after waiting for a long time, the emperor finally arrived.The Queen Mother also followed, followed by Concubine Yao and King Xuan.

The Empress Dowager was sitting on the emperor's right hand, she looked at Yi Jinning with a smile, her eyes were full of scrutiny of the granddaughter-in-law.Seeing that Yi Jinning was quite uncomfortable, she smiled politely back at the Queen Mother, lowered her head and ate the dishes close to her.

I don't know what I picked up and stuffed it into my mouth. After I ate it, I felt that the thing was very hard.She spat it out in one gulp, and saw that the queen mother was still looking at her.He hurriedly picked up a glass of something on the table and drank it, but it was strong wine, which made her cry.

"Aiqing, your daughter is good!" Her cough caught the emperor's attention, and he said to Yi Changhua with a smile, "The Queen Mother likes your daughter very much."

The Queen Mother likes Ning'er?Yi Changhua raised his eyes to look at the queen mother's seat, but saw that the queen mother had been staring at Ning'er, who seemed to really like Ning'er.He felt a little displeased, but he didn't show it.There is only one possibility for the Queen Mother to fall in love with his Ning'er, and that is to ask her to marry that foolish King Qing.

After returning from the lotus feast last time, the queen mother also issued a decree, but because of the rumors, she left in the middle of reading the decree.But at that time, the Yi decree was almost finished reading, and the queen mother sent someone to withdraw the decree, which made him inexplicably guessed for a long time before he realized that it was to give Ning'er a marriage.

Now that the rumors have been clarified, the Queen Mother has set her sights on Ning'er again?Yi Changhua narrowed his eyes, damn it, Ning'er's marriage was already arranged if he knew it earlier.If Ning'er were to marry that stupid King Qing, not to mention Ning'er would not agree, even all the men in Jincheng would not agree!
