After rebirth, I became the widow of my mortal enemy

Yan Mobai glanced at Ning Miao and turned away.

Yan Kunpeng and Ning Miao then felt the strong sense of oppression fade away, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.

Look at each other.

Yan Kunpeng blamed himself: "Sorry, madam, I was rude."

He had lost his mind a little just now.

In fact, he was not such a tactless person, but he just got carried away for no reason.

Ning Miao caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye and saw Yan Mobai in front of him seeming to look back.

She curved her lips and said to Yan Kunpeng, "It's okay, go quickly, don't let His Royal Highness Prince Ning wait."

"Yeah." Yan Kunpeng turned and left.

Ning Miao looked at his back and sighed slightly.

She knew in her heart that those people in the garden would say that she was Yan Kunpeng's relative, probably because of her behavior in the teahouse during the parade of the top three yesterday.

Living a new life, Qingyu doesn’t matter to her at all.

However, Yan Kunpeng had just won the top spot in the imperial examination and had a bright future. Entering the officialdom was also his lifelong ambition, so his good reputation was very important.

She still has to be considerate in the future.

Just as she was feeling bored, several young women called her from a garden not far away.

"Madam Ning!"

"Madam Ning, come and enjoy the flowers!"

Several people were waving and shouting, all with smiles on their faces.

Ning Miao was puzzled. When she was in the pavilion just now, none of them greeted her. Why were they so enthusiastic now?

I didn't want to go there at first, but seeing that they were really welcoming, I walked over.

Before she even got close, several people came over to greet her, praising her in a friendly manner.

"The lady is really pretty."

"Madam, I have always used the rouge from your Chaohua Rouge Shop. It is very good."

"Me too. I don't even like other brands' rouge anymore."

"I also like the paper lottery tickets in the rouge box. Sometimes I buy several boxes at once just for the lottery tickets inside, haha."

"same."

Ning Miao didn't know what to say, so he just kept thanking her: "Thank you, thank you."

She was not used to their excessive enthusiasm, and she roughly guessed why they were like that.

Maybe it was because she was Yan Mobai's sister-in-law, and he wanted to win some favor from her so that he could win Yan Mobai's heart.

"It's too sunny. Let's go to the pavilion to paint. There are pens, ink, paper and inkstone there," someone suggested.

"Okay." The others agreed.

One on the left, one on the right, they held Ning Miao's arms affectionately and went to the pavilion together.

Several people who could paint were eager to try and show off their skills in front of Ning Miao.

Ning Miao sat aside and watched them paint, still thinking about "Guan Gong Conquering the Dragon".

A servant from Prince Ning's mansion came.

"Princess Ning, please go to the front yard and admire the Hundred Flowers Painting."

Ning Miao's eyebrows jumped.

Watching it so soon?

In her previous life, she did not attend the Spring Banquet and did not know the exact time for the painting appreciation.

Everyone had no choice but to put down their pens and go to the front yard.

After walking for a while, Ning Miao said to the others, "Everyone go ahead. I left my handkerchief in the pavilion. I'll go back and look for it, and I'll catch up with you later."

-

In the flower hall, Prince Ning, Yan Mobai, and the top three candidates in the spring examination were drinking tea.

Princess Ning Yuan Lan came in from outside with a young woman.

Except for Prince Ning, the others all stood up and greeted Princess Ning.

"Gentlemen, there is no need to be so polite." Princess Ning smiled warmly.

Then, he introduced the woman next to him to everyone.

"My sister, Yuan Ziyan, has been stationed at the border with my father and just returned to the capital yesterday."

After saying that, he motioned to the woman, "Zi Yan, why don't you meet the gentlemen quickly?"

The woman was dressed in purple. Unlike the flowing sleeves of ordinary women, she wore tight sleeves. Her facial features were delicate, but her eyebrows and eyes had a heroic air. She looked heroic, clean and neat.

Without any shyness or embarrassment like a girl, the woman took a step forward and bowed to the few people.

"Zi Yan greets all the gentlemen."

Yan Mobai, Yan Kunpeng, as well as the runner-up and third place winners all returned the gifts.

Yan Mobai had a blank expression on his face, Yan Kunpeng was cautious, and then the two looked at each other and understood what was going on.

Princess Ning might be intending to choose her brother-in-law from among them.

Princess Ning's father was the general Zhenyuan of the current dynasty. The Yuan family had been military generals for generations and had made great military achievements.

Yuan Ziyan and Princess Ning were born to the same mother and were both legitimate.

If he could really marry this girl, both the General's Mansion and Prince Ning's Mansion would have support, which would be a great honor.

Each of them had their own calculations in mind.

You must perform well.

Prince Ning signaled to the others: "Don't stand, sit down quickly."

The four of them thanked him and sat down.

Yuan Ziyan looked at Yan Mobai.

The man was dressed in a black robe, and he was indeed as handsome as the rumors said, unrivaled in the world, with a cold temperament, dignified and steady, giving people the feeling of being aloof, intimidating without anger, and having a strong aura.

Yuan Ziyan curled her lips and said, "I heard that Lord Yan is good at solving cases and governing the country, and he is good at killing enemies and deciding the fate of the world. Ziyan dares to ask Lord Yan for some advice. Is that possible?"

Princess Ning saw this and said angrily, "Zi Yan, don't be rude."

Prince Ning smiled and said, "It's okay. It's rare that my sister is in a good mood. Mo Bai, you can learn from sister Zi Yan."

King Ning spoke, and Yan Mobai had no choice but to stand up: "Yes."

Yuan Ziyan took two swords from the guards at the door, threw one to Yan Mobai, and kept the other one herself.

"Master Yan, please!"

The two walked out of the flower hall.

Both the runner-up and the third place winner felt very unhappy.

With Yan Mobai around, they had no chance to perform at all.

After all, whether in appearance, ability, qualifications, status, or relationship with King Ning, this man is incomparable to them now.

"Let's go and take a look." King Ning stood up.

Everyone followed him out of the flower hall.

In the courtyard, two figures, one in black and one in purple, one tall and one pretty, stood facing each other in the distance.

Yuan Ziyan curved her lips and said, "Master Yan, please don't go easy on me just because I'm a woman."

After saying that, he made a sword flower with the sword in his hand and stabbed towards Yan Mobai.

Yan Mo's black clothes moved like ink. He dodged lightly and rushed towards the opponent with the long sword in his hand like a silver dragon.

Everyone saw that the two men's moves were as fast as lightning, and each move was unpredictable. They were fighting back and forth, and it was difficult to tell who was the winner.

When Ning Miao came over, he saw this scene.

Yan Mobai was dueling with a young woman in a sword fight. Prince Ning, Princess Ning, the top three candidates in the Spring Examination, a group of officials, and a group of female relatives were watching.

There was constant cheering.

Ning Miao also walked into the crowd to watch.

Both of them are very good at swordsmanship, one is hard and the other is soft. The hard one is fierce, but sometimes the soft can overcome the hard, and they are evenly matched for a long time.

In the end, Yan Mobai was better and knocked the sword out of the woman's hand.

I thought the competition was over, but the woman refused to admit defeat and continued fighting with her bare hands.

Yan Mobai had no choice but to raise his arm, throw away his sword, and take the attack with his bare hands.

Without swords, the two began to fight in close combat. The woman's moves were particularly tricky. The two made physical contact from time to time, and looked very affectionate and ambiguous.

The eyes of the women watching were red with envy and jealousy in their hearts.

The runner-up and third place winners also felt unhappy.

Princess Ning was very happy to see this and said with a smile: "They are a perfect match."

Ning Miao looked at the two of them and agreed with what Princess Ning said.

They are indeed a good match.

I thought they would fight for a while, but Yan Mobai suddenly tiptoed, took a few steps back, and stood still: "Let's stop here, Miss Yuan is really good at fighting."
