bright moon goes west

Hang'e came out of a hot bath comfortably. Rui Bai, who was in charge of her clothes and jewelry, had long ago ironed and hung up the clothes she had picked out neatly on the hangers. Rui Bai and Huang Xian helped her change into the half-sleeve brocade cheongsam with piping.After wringing out Hang'e's black hair, Huangxian combed her hair into a bun that matched her clothes, put on a diamond hairpin, and picked out a pair of ruby ​​earrings for Hang'e to wear. Shi Fendai's face was also covered with a thin layer of powder.After everything was settled, Heng'e smiled slightly at the mirror, only to see the beauty in the mirror smiling at the crooked autumn moon, dizzy with shame, her brows and eyes glowing, radiant and radiant.

"Huangxian's craftsmanship is getting better and better." Heng'e praised the skillful handmaid, and rewarded her with a pair of gold lilac earrings that were often worn at home in the dowry.Huangxian thanked him for the reward, and put on the phoenix the invitation he ordered his servants to find.

Heng'e flipped her hands over and told Ruibai, "Go and tell Zou Cheng that when our car leaves, there is no need to restrict the movement of the servants. Anyway, it will be done by then."

Rui Bai answered "yes" in a low voice, secretly glanced at Heng'e, who was expressionless, and didn't dare to persuade her, tonight is destined to be restless.

The car drove out of the Marshal's Mansion in a mighty manner. Butler Zhang, who had just escaped from Heng'e's hands, quickly dialed the phone number of Chen Xi's private residence, but he was destined to be disappointed. The engagement dinner at the Lin Mansion started at 06:30 , It's already seven o'clock, although the young marshal will not go right after the dinner, but hearing the servants report that the young marshal has gone out with Mrs. Bai, Zhang Butler's heart sank, and the young lady obviously also Let alone the purpose of going to the Lin mansion, but the young marshal doesn't know it at all, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape a fine this time.

In the car, Heng'e took out a small Western mirror inlaid with various gemstones and took a picture. After confirming that her makeup was in place, she closed the mirror and smiled at a young lady sitting in the co-pilot: "When I sent you to Imperial Capital, let you help me take care of this big mess, complicated and trivial, I thought you would do a good job, but I didn't expect you to do it so well..."

"Missy flattered me!" Jian Zhenni was wearing a dark gold polyester taffeta dress, black stilettos, a beige cashmere coat, and the most popular big wave curl, wearing a set of diamonds Jewelry, snow-skinned red lips, and gestures are all like a lady of high society. At this moment, her red lips are slightly hooked, revealing a respectful smile, "Without the appreciation of the eldest lady, I would not be where I am today."

"It's up to you to do it yourself. Although you are a distant relative of the Cui family, in my opinion, the serious lady of the Cui family may not be better than you. If you are a stubborn stone, no matter how hard I carve it You can't become a gold jade, but you are capable and willing to make progress to achieve what you are today, and you don't have to be too humble." The more humble Jian Zhenni behaved, the more Heng'e would give her decent.

Jian Zhenni was the one chosen by Heng'e ten years ago.At that time, Jian Zhenni was not called Jian Zhenni, she was just a ten-year-old girl who was sold by her parents in a famine year, and she was called Cao Daya, who was not even considered to have a serious name. Those who are not close to the daughter of the Cui family's concubine are already ten years old, and they are also girls from outside. They don't know their roots, have no control, and have never been treated. rules.

However, she fell into Heng'e's eyes.Cui Heng'e, the most honorable and precious daughter of heaven, took her to her side, and Cao Daya's fate changed drastically from then on.No longer just a dispensable little girl in charge of sweeping the garden.Heng'e took her in and out, invited famous teachers to teach her, and when Cao Daya gradually showed extraordinary, he gave her a new name and a new identity. Since then, there has been one less lifeless Cao Daya in the world. Ah, there is an extra Jian Zhenni from a wealthy background.

It was only after she followed Heng'e that Jian Zhenni realized that there is truly a person in this world who is uniquely loved by God. She was born in Jinxiu Gate, who ate gold and jade millet, called gold slaves and silver maidservants, and gave birth to a fairy-like good-looking person. If you can have these two things, you don't know that it is a blessing from several lifetimes of cultivation.However, Cui Jiaheng'e is more than that. Although she is young, she is an exquisite person with a crystal heart. She has seven orifices in her heart, she is transparent in everything, and she has extraordinary talents, which can only be learned by others in a few days or months. It's difficult, she can tell the way with just one glance, this girl who is only two years younger than herself, outsiders only know that she is beautiful, but they don't know that she has a good memory, and she knows everything she hears. The Cui family manages the property, but also has a sharp eye, and has the ability to know people since childhood.Even the strictest patriarch of the Cui family, Mrs. Cui, who is not polite to his sons, often puts this granddaughter on his knees, laughing and praising "my family's phoenix", infinitely cherishing and pampering her.

Jian Zhenni followed Cui Heng'e like this. After five years of teaching and five years of experience, she was finally able to be independent.

For Jian Zhenni, she can have today's identity and status not only because of her own intelligence, but more because of the young lady's spare no effort to cultivate herself. The eldest lady was smashed to pieces.

Jian Zhenni's loyalty Heng'e has never doubted, so after that incident, Heng'e guessed her mind with a little thought, but no matter how tolerant she was under her command, she would never allow her confidant to act against her back. It is argued that Jian Zhenni has committed her taboo.

Heng'e's words were ambiguous, and Jian Zhenni naturally understood what she meant. She said that she would not lose to the serious lady of the Cui family. She knew what Hang'e hated most about her servants, and she didn't dare to argue at all, her eyes could not help revealing a trace of panic and anxiety: "Miss, it was Jenny who forgot the rules, please punish her."

Not hopeless!Heng'e gave a cold snort in her heart, and lightly moved the suet white jade bas-relief "Happy Eyebrow" plum blossom bracelet on her wrist, and after a while, said softly: "This is not an example!"

Only then did Jian Zhenni heave a sigh of relief, her tense body was slightly loosened, a gleam of water lit up in her eyes, she was as cute and pitiful as a small animal who was afraid of being abandoned: "Miss, I know I was wrong, thank you can forgive me."

Heng'e was noncommittal, and said softly, "You have always done things properly, don't let me down."

The car stopped at a corner of the street, and Jian Zhenni got out of the car and got into another car.

Watching the car go away in the dust, Fei Qiong pursed her lips, and said in deliberation: "Miss, you give Miss Jenny too much power, and you don't have enough people."

Heng'e smiled when she heard the words. It is not without reason that she relies on Fei Qiong the most. Although Fei Qiong is extremely smart, she does not have the shortcomings of smart people. nothing.

Jian Zhenni used to be just a girl who was exchanged for money by her biological parents. Her identity was not as good as that of the little maids sweeping in her yard. Once her identity changed, many of her girls did not wake up. Only Feiqiong was respectful from beginning to end. , I really treat Jian Zhenni as a distant lady.

What Heng'e appreciates most is Fei Qiong's point of view. Everything she says and does makes people feel appropriate. Even though Fei Qiong hesitates to speak, Heng'e still hears what she means, and doesn't want her to worry, so she smiles. Angrily said: "You! You are too thoughtful! Don't worry, Jian Zhenni is just a bright line for me. Even if she has great abilities, she can't find the palm of my hand."

Fei Qiong was taken aback for a moment, and Dan Feng's eyes were tinged with a smile: "I thought Miss was... I was worrying too much about her."

Heng'e's red lips curled up slightly, and there was a bit of self-deprecation in her voice: "Even the flesh and blood are full of calculations, and you still count on the so-called kindness? Don't say now, even in the past, I wouldn't believe it..." She nodded Leaning slightly to the window, the crow-feather-like eyelashes closed the thick sadness in the eyes.

Fei Qiong didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only be silent.

Xinyu Street, Lin Mansion.There is a lot of traffic at the door.

A long train of cars drove slowly towards the gate of the mansion, and stopped at the gate of the Lin mansion. The driver rolled down the window and handed over the gold-plated invitation card.

The invitations of the Lin family are divided into three, six, and nine grades. Although the servant who welcomes guests does not know the identity of the person sitting in the car, he can tell that the invitation in his hand is the first-class invitation letter from the Lin family. , although secretly guessing in his heart who dared to come later than Chen Shaoshuai, he still led the car to the mansion respectfully.

The Lin Mansion occupies a large area. Although it is severe winter, you can still see the elegant and elegant architectural layout. It is said that Lin Xianze's ancestors moved here from the south of the Yangtze River. Looking at the style of this mansion, there is a Jiangnan style of small bridges and flowing water. .

The car circled the garden and stopped in front of the steps of the main building.

Looking from a distance, the banquet hall is resplendent and magnificent, with fragrant clothes and shadows on the temples, and the cheerful piano sound flowing slowly like spring water, presenting a scene of luxury and wealth.

In the car, Fei Qiong buttoned up Hang'e's coat, put on a top hat for Hang'e, confirmed for the last time that Hang'e was wrapped tightly, and then got out of the car and opened the door on the side of Hang'e.

There was fine snow in the sky, and Zou Cheng, who got off from another car, personally held a black oil umbrella, and graciously covered Heng'e who had just got off the car under the umbrella, and said in a low voice: "Young Madam, the Your Majesty has already sent someone to investigate, the young commander is not in the hall, someone from the Cui family has also come, it is your seventh cousin, and the young commander went to the study on the second floor of the Lin family to discuss matters, but Bai Pingting is in the hall."

These few words contained a lot of information, Heng'e nodded to indicate that she understood, she gathered the hem of the coat that was blown away by the cold wind, and slowly stepped up the steps in white high-heeled shoes.

Heng'e came in and out with great pomp and circumstance, and the doorman welcoming guests had already noticed this group of people.I saw the bright lights in the garden, and the beautiful woman wearing a black top hat stepped up the steps gracefully. The black gauze under the top hat gathered the woman's careless eyebrows and eyes, but it couldn't hide the beauty that seemed to be able to seize the world, like a shining sun. Zhuo Yan was so heart-wrenching, it was Zou Cheng who coughed heavily, and several doormen realized their gaffe and respectfully invited him into the hall.

The revolving glass door slowly opened, and the guests in the hall who originally thought that there would be no more guests were silent.His gaze turned involuntarily to the entrance of the hall, wondering who had the courage to come behind Young Marshal Chen.

Councilor Lin was not in the lobby, and the task of welcoming guests fell on his eldest son Lin Yunke. Although Lin Yunke was muttering inwardly, Lin Ke still greeted the guests with his fiancée Shen Fangyun with a graceful smile.

However, the first ones came in were ten tall, strong bodyguards in black with no expression on their faces, followed by soldiers from Shaoshuai Chen's lineage wearing military uniforms with Fengxian Army badges, and finally walked into two rows of beautiful maids with colorful embroidery, Surrounded by a woman who covered her face with a fan, she walked in slowly.

The sound of music stopped for a moment, and then flowed cheerfully.
