Mrs. Pin, one of the Red House

"How much does father know about this marriage?" Ning Yun knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and also knew that Wang's experience was lacking, so he changed the subject with one word.

Wang said: "Naturally, Marquis Ding Guo first negotiated with your father."

"That's it." Ning Yun said with a smile.

Wang frowned and froze for a moment.

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was in a daze, Ning Yun thought for a while, opened the palace fan, and felt that Yangzhou in autumn was a bit stuffy, and said tentatively, "Mother, do you still remember what happened to uncle back then? Dad was lucky when uncle died early, and younger brother was lucky to be there when uncle died." Now my father is not on my feet, and I am dependent on the Queen Mother." Seeing that the Wang family was a little shaken, she said, "Now my younger brother and I are very different in age, once I marry into the Lin family..." She turned her head to hide her expression , and said to Wang: "Who do you think will benefit the most at home? Mother should also consider what father is planning?"

A word to awaken the dreamer.

When the Wang family knew that Shi Ding had been named the Duke of Hua, he specifically told the emperor that because Brother Xin was young, he would have to wait a few years before he could be named as the son. Sir, this matter is probably still pending.

Wang suddenly grasped the handkerchief in his hand, and the red plums on it wrinkled up, leaving only the crisscross branches.

"The situation of the Lin family is not a good marriage after all, and someone who knows the basics will definitely not agree." Ning Yun said, "Mother, do you still remember Tan Yun and Brother Shen?"

These words were like a basin of cold water, which poured a chill into Wang's bones, and she couldn't help shivering.

Now that Ning Yun is the only one, Shi Ding, in order to show his respect for the Wang family, purposely let Tan Yun's child be born from the Xinzi generation, named Shen, and his name echoes the Wang family's boudoir name.

The allusion is taken from a sentence in the collection of Tan Ming by Zhang Song, a literati of the former dynasty, "The style of the family in the Southern and Northern Dynasties is that the Jia surname is better than other families, and it is better than Muxiu and Lin You. It is called Ke, and the winter sun is shining and Tangran is called Shen."

Every time Wang thought of this incident, she was so angry that she almost slapped Shi Ding twice.

So when they talked about going south, Mrs. Wang immediately left Brother Shen at home and handed it over to Mrs. Zhao. Shi Ding talked to her a lot at that time, saying that there are many celebrities and scholars in the south of the Yangtze River, and such a mess.

Now Brother Xin has become the eldest son, but it is the result of Ning Yun's intervention.

Wang suddenly felt that this marriage was weird everywhere, and couldn't help but hate Shi Ding from the bottom of her heart.

Looking at Ning Yun, Wang sighed leisurely for a long time.

Ning Yun is her child, she is a mother, conceived in October, two days after the gate of hell is closed, and she has worked hard to raise her, so she naturally hopes that her child will be happy in everything.

Now that her daughter lives high in the temple, she can only see her when she looks up, so why bother to bend down to be someone else?

Wang admitted that if she had been in Ning Yun's position that day, she would never have married Shi Ding.

She held the invitation card, thought for a moment, then put the invitation card aside casually, and said with a sweet smile: "Since you don't want to, then forget it, anyway, our family is now on par with Ding Guohou's family, so there is no need for that. "

Ning Yun smiled and said, "My mother still loves my daughter."

Seeing that Mrs. Wang agreed, Ning Yun was naturally happy, but even if Mrs. Wang refused to agree to this marriage, Mrs. Wang couldn't control her. As long as she didn't nod, the Marquis of Dingguo would not dare to come to propose marriage.

As for Shi Ding's small plans, she is not very clear, because she has relatively little contact with Shi Ding, but now Ding Guohou's family has power through Guangdong and Guangxi, and they are secondary assistants. As long as Lin Xi says it, Shi Ding will naturally Agree, but for her, the top priority is not to make this marriage happen.

Seeing Wang's silver teeth gritted secretly, she stood up angrily, sat down again, and finally didn't say anything, but poured a glass of water and handed it to Wang, saying: "Mother, don't be sad."

Wang gritted her teeth and raised her chin, "Why am I sad? It's not worth it for this kind of person!"

Ning Yun did not persuade Wang.

Hou Men's marriage is a good match between the two surnames. It is best not to have any emotions mixed into it. Now the Shifu can be said to be the icing on the cake, but it does not guarantee the future.

——Especially now that Shi Ding is serving as an official in the south of the Yangtze River. He is a military officer and has a little ink in his stomach, but his brains are really not enough. I guess it is not so easy to sit firmly in this place with complicated forces.

Wei Yan was born with a wealth of knowledge and a wealth of chariots. He is so cunning that he seized the throne three times and all retreated. He was a dragon, abolished a prince, and a sage ascended the throne. Every time he went one step closer to the center of power, such a person After staying in Jiangnan for several years, he was almost forced to become an official.

Ning Yun dared to say that even if she was replaced as the governor, she would have to walk on eggshells every day, trembling with fear. It can only be said that she does not seek merit, but seeks to be innocent.

Ning Yun can be regarded as having experienced the political sensitivity of Shi Ding and Shi Nai brothers.

She was afraid that if something happened to Shi Ding one day, Wang would be made stupid again because of the weak relationship between husband and wife.

In the end, most of the disputes in the officialdom have affected the housewives.

"By the way, the young lady of the Lin family has posted a post, and after Mrs. Tai's birthday is over, please invite me over to have tea." Ning Yun remembered this and quickly greeted Mrs. Wang, "I don't need to come out to entertain relatives and friends, Or is it a gift in return?"

Mrs. Wang nodded, "Go." Then he said a little funny: "Once the birthday is over, the busiest time is over, but you are back and rushing to help."

Ning Yun smiled, acted like a spoiled child next to Mrs. Wang, and said, "I've finally come back, mother hasn't cooked some special dishes for me yet? I miss the lotus root pork ribs soup stewed by mother herself."

When Ning Yun opened his mouth, Mrs. Wang naturally put down all the other things and went on non-stop.

Just after the twentieth day, Ning Yunchen packed up and went out. He arranged for chariots, horses and people who drank the Tao, put on a lot of make-up, and then went to Lin's mansion.

Daiyu naturally greeted Jia Min when she came back yesterday, fearing that Jia Min was unprepared, so when Ning Yun came, Jia Min naturally opened the front door and rang the bell.

"I haven't seen you for so many days, and she looks more and more beautiful." Jia Min smiled. She knew that Ning Yun and Daiyu were both in the palace. Although their positions were not exactly the same, they were inevitably a little close. Regarding Ning Yun's visit, Not surprising.

She looked Ning Yun up and down, a little hesitant.

Although Ning Yun is now the princess of the second rank, he is the queen mother's confidant, and he borrowed the bright yellow according to the queen's princess etiquette. Now he is wearing a bright yellow embroidered five-phoenix pearl brocade with knee-length sleeves, double-woven gold and silver threads of the same color and folded pomegranates. Woven gold dress, earrings are sapphire, long to the shoulders, wearing five phoenix Chaoyang hairpin containing beads, phoenix eyes are set with crystal clear emeralds, shining brightly.

Bright yellow is only used for dresses of queens and princesses.

According to family etiquette, Ning Yun should salute her.

According to national etiquette, her second-rank imperial order should be on the same level as Ning Yun's, but according to Minghuang's etiquette, she should salute first.

Generally, people are used to performing the national ceremony first, and then the family ceremony, but Daiyu, as the second-rank maid specially appointed by the empress, directly gave the purple clothes of the first-rank officials.

According to the etiquette system of the Jin Dynasty, the mother of the first-rank official and the second-rank official of the ultraviolet province was exempted from kneeling in the two palaces.

Jia Min was confused immediately, whether this leg was bent or straight, she suddenly understood why Dai Yu had to wait for Ning Yun in the main hall.

Ning Yun saw Jia Min's embarrassment, and went up to support Jia Min without leaving a trace, directly skipping that step, the two walked to Daiyu's yard, and said with a smile: "Madam, is this polite?"

Jia Min thinks this child is sweet.

"By the way, how is the old lady in your house? Did you have a good time yesterday?" Jia Min said politely with a smile.

Mrs. Lin Tai's birthday banquet can be described as fiery trees and silver flowers, prosperous as brocade.

"Grandmother hasn't seen a smile in the past few days. She only saw some smiles yesterday. It's thanks to your blessing." Ning Yun replied with a smile.

When they arrived at the main hall, Jia Min hurriedly asked the servant girl to bring tea and pastries, looked at Daiyu and Ning Yun and said, "You two talk for yourself, I have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

He also told Daiyu, "Treat Shanhua well."

Daiyu smiled and said, "Mother, I know what's in my heart, go and do your work."

After Jia Min left, Daiyu gave her a wink, and Xueyan hurriedly backed out without forgetting to close the door.

Only then did Ning Yun laugh, and said, "No wonder you refused to come out, it's really embarrassing."

Daiyu used the lid of the teacup to skim off the floating tea on the surface of the tea, took a slow look at Ning Yun, and said, "These are just empty etiquette, such as first-class and second-rank, it's just a name, how do you salute every day? Kneeling is kneeling, half-ceremony, and troublesome enough, but in my opinion, it’s better not to, according to the seniority of the family, the sisters call it the top.”

Ning Yun shook his head, and the earrings jingled, "Your mouth is still so unforgiving. During these days in the palace, I thought you had changed a lot."

Daiyu said: "I am like this, just get used to it." Then she put down the teacup and said to Ning Yun, "This is not a place to talk, let's go to the East Chamber to talk."

Ning Yun got up and walked in with Daiyu, thinking that this place is Jia Min's daily life. There are golden silk nanmu inlaid with emerald screens and glass partitions. There are three strings of sandalwood Buddhist beads hanging from north to south, on the ancient shelf A row of books is not full of antiques like ordinary people's houses.

There is a red clay stove in the center of the room, and the teapot on the stove is painted with green bamboo, which is intended to flow a cup of Qushui.

Daiyu sat on the sandalwood armchair, opened the lid of the teapot, lifted the teapot, put it down again after the water cooled down, and repeated this three times, completely pretending that Ning Yun did not exist.

Ning Yun sat on another chair unceremoniously, and after Daiyu finished making the tea, he watched her pour out the tea, and couldn't help laughing: "You are a refined guest, you boil it three times, it's just It’s just an ordinary thing for receiving people and entertaining guests.”

Daiyu handed over a cup of tea. She was young after all, sometimes she couldn't hold her breath, she took a sip from the tea bowl, hesitated for a long time before asking: "Is there a clue to what happened yesterday?"

When she recalled yesterday, her face turned pale, and she still had lingering fears.

"How is it possible." Ning Yun smiled, "Tianjiangwei is not my family, plus my grandmother's birthday, how can I be free?" Fu Zhengse asked: "Today, all the boats on the canal stopped?"

Daiyu nodded, "I have already ordered someone to report to the empress, and to meet the magistrate of Yangzhou and tell him to stop today's boat no matter what excuse he finds." She shook her head as she spoke, "But this will not last long. The plan is that it is now September, and the officials from Guangdong and Guangxi will go to Beijing in the spring. The Grand Canal is the only way to go, and they will leave in a few days. It is okay to close the canal for a few days. Sending a large number of officials to Beijing is impossible to explain.”

"Knowing that there are not many people who change ships and divert us, if they want to seek wealth and death, we should first check with those people in the outer circle." Ning Yun put the tea bowl on the incense table beside him, "People around me know that you and I Both of them are on Mrs. Xue's boat, so if it's not them, those who are a little close should know about the rumors, and the rest are outsiders who know the itinerary but don't know the details." She sighed.

"I'm afraid there is something hidden in it." Ning Yun glanced at Daiyu.

Daiyu frowned, and Yuanshan's eyebrows appeared a little more elegant than usual. She was originally a delicate heart, so she immediately understood, "According to your opinion, you think it might be a demonstration?"

"By the way, did Princess Beijing tell you anything before she died? Her mother's family is from Yangzhou, and I always think it might have something to do with her." Ning Yun said.

To be honest, she couldn't think about it at this time.

When she and Daiyu came from Zhenjiang to Yangzhou, if Aunt Xue hadn't invited them to have dinner on her and Baochai's boat, they might have followed the boat they made and sank.

If it's a coincidence, it's fine, even Tianjiang Wei didn't find out why, who did it, and what is it?Why did the warehouse at the bottom of the ship crack open out of thin air, and the whole ship sank silently in just a short time of burning incense.

It was Ning Yun who felt that the whole thing was not quite right, and it was not her fault for thinking too much.

When King Beijing was given to die that day, Princess Beijing committed suicide outside the palace, but Princess Beijing insisted on seeing Daiyu before she died.

The queen was right at the time.

"Aren't you and Princess Zhaode outside at that time?" Daiyu said with a half-smile.

Ning Yun said with a smile: "Some things are meaningless if they are broken." He added: "We are not martial arts practitioners, we can only see her whispering to you, but we don't know what we are talking about."

"What's the difference between a real villain and a hypocrite?" Daiyu went to the outside room to bring in some snacks, "If there's anything you can't say clearly, you'll be blaming yourself all day long. Why cover it up when you've clearly done it?" Cover up? Pretend to be a gentleman."

Ning Yun pretended not to hear.

"Princess Beijing just said a word, the sun and the moon are hanging on the ninth floor, and the golden crow is falling when the moon appears." Dai Yufu sat down, clasped her hands, and said seriously.

Ning Yun twisted the turquoise chain on his wrist.

The sun and the moon hang again.

On that day, the Wang family was referring to the matter of the prince's gift to the king with the sun and the moon double hanging.

Then, with the death of King Li, what does Princess Beijing mean by the Sun and the Moon Shuangxuan?

She was still thinking about it, but when she heard the sound of birds, she saw a white dove landed on the window coffin, Daiyu took off the note from the dove's ankle, handed it to Ning Yun for a look, then got up to call the snow Geese come in.

Ning Yun threw the note into the stove, "The queen's hands and feet are not slow."

Daiyu turned into the inner room, and when she heard Ning Yun's words, she turned to it, "We still have to meet with the newly appointed commander of the Inspectorate later, Tianjiangwei's way is not the right way after all. .”
