Oops, I accidentally became the palm of a powerful official

Chapter 2 Unsatisfactory
She hurried back to her yard and quietly started to induce vomiting, and drank several cups of herbal tea vigorously, finally suppressing the effect of the medicine.

"Miss, the Hou Mansion sent someone to spread the word that the Second Madam will take the young lady to a banquet at the Princess Mansion tomorrow, and you must dress up tomorrow."

As soon as she finished her busy work, the servant girl who took care of her personally came in: "It just so happened that the old lady sent a lot of brocade and jewels to the young lady earlier, while there is still time now, why don't you call a tailor to come in and rush to make new clothes for the young lady?" Bar?"

A banquet at the princess mansion?

Sheng Anning squinted her eyes, and immediately remembered the relevant plot in the book.

At the banquet, Princess Sheng Qingqing invited an eminent monk from Jingju Temple, who revealed on the spot that Sheng An Ning was a wild girl raised in the countryside, making her the laughing stock of everyone in Beijing, even the Hou Mansion. implicated.

Even Sheng Junze was caught, and he was attacked several times in court for this matter!
A dark light flashed in her eyes: "I don't need to make clothes, but there is another thing I want you to do. Go out and find a craftsman right now..."

Early the next morning, the second wife of the Hou's mansion, Tang Shi, her second aunt, really came to the door of Xiang's mansion with her cousin Sheng Qingqing and waited for her.

Sheng Anning did not dress up, but wore a water-blue skirt that was not considered luxurious, which made her skin white and gentle, and she looked gentle and charming, and she could see the dignity of a lady at a glance.

Sheng Qingqing looked at her gentle and delicate face, with a trace of jealousy in his eyes.

How could this wild girl who grew up outside look so seductive!

But Tang glanced at the skirt on her body, a trace of unhappiness flashed in her eyes, she smiled and said, "Why are you dressed so plainly? You are the daughter of our Yongsheng Houfu, representing the face of the Houfu. Dressing up like this for the banquet at the Princess Mansion, won't people say that our Marquis Manor treated you harshly?"

Sheng An Ning smiled slightly, pretending to be innocent: "If the second aunt had said earlier, An Ning would have had time to prepare, but this time is too hasty, how could there be time to make clothes? Besides... Isn't the cousin dressed very neatly?"

Sheng Qingqing was wearing a lotus-colored jacket and skirt. If there was no comparison with Sheng Anning, it would be considered elegant, but comparing the two together, Sheng Qingqing was a bit unsatisfactory.

Tang choked, and couldn't say anything else, so he could only let Sheng Aning get into the carriage first.

And Sheng Anning sneered inwardly.

The original owner of the book listened to the words of Tang and Sheng Qingqing, and when she attended the banquet, she put on heavy makeup and dressed up extremely luxuriously, and made those famous ladies ridicule her, saying that she had never been rich before, and hated it when she saw gold and silver. Not being able to pile it all up on the body to show off has become the laughing stock of the wealthy families in Beijing.

When the carriage arrived at the Princess' Mansion, Sheng Anning got out of the carriage, and followed Tang into the backyard with a low eyebrow. Many curious eyes were cast on her.

Sheng Anning smiled kindly at those people, and sat down obediently with Tang.

When the Hou Mansion brought her back, they said that she had been praying for her deceased parents in the mountains, so many people were curious about her and speculated whether she was hidden because she was a shameful person.

Looking at it now, this Sheng An Ning looks beautiful, and she doesn't seem to be a pushover, but she has attracted many people's favor.

"This one is the daughter of the Yongsheng Hou Mansion just brought back?"

A smiling female voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard, and everyone cast their gazes over and got up to salute: "I have seen Your Highness the Princess."

Sheng Aning responded generously: "My daughter has met Her Royal Highness the Princess."

Princess Pingyang looked graceful and luxurious in her red palace attire.

In the original book, the princess had a good relationship with Sheng Qingqing, and it was precisely because of Sheng Qingqing that she deliberately made Sheng Anning lose face at the banquet.

But this time, she was already prepared.

"Sure enough."

Princess Pingyang looked her up and down for a while, and said meaningfully: "I heard that Miss Sheng has been praying for the first son and his wife at Jingju Temple before?"

This is what the Yongsheng Houfu said on the bright side. After all, if it is said that she was raised in the village since she was a child, it will definitely damage the reputation of the Houfu and Sheng Junze.

coming!

Sheng An Ning lowered her eyebrows and said, "Exactly."

"That's a coincidence."

Pingyang covered his mouth and chuckled, but there was a cold glint in his eyes: "It just so happens that my palace has been having nightmares these days, and I have invited an eminent monk from the Jingju Temple to chant scriptures for me. Maybe you still recognize it."

The reason why she specially invited Sheng Aning here was because Sheng Qingqing said that this woman was raised in the countryside, but she pretended to be practicing in Buddhism.

How could she allow such a domineering woman to damage the reputation of Buddhism! ?

Soon, a monk in cassock was brought up.
Pingyang smiled, "Master Daoyan, this young lady grew up in your Jingju Temple, do you recognize her?"

The monk looked at Sheng An Ning for a while, then shook his head.

The crowd was in an uproar.

Didn't it mean that Sheng Anning was praying for his parents in Buddhism?Why didn't the monks at Jingju Temple recognize her?
Sheng Qingqing, on the other hand, had a smug face.

Oh, so what if the country girl is found, she can only be manipulated by her!
She was waiting to see Sheng Anning make a fool of herself, but she didn't expect Sheng Aning to say: "It's normal that master doesn't recognize me. I'm worried about causing trouble to the temple, so I rarely show up. By the way, Zen master Yunyou has ever come back?"

Dao Yan looked surprised: "How does the benefactor know that the ancestor of Zen Master went to travel?"

"I am a registered disciple of Master Xiu Zen. When I left the temple, the master happened to say that I was going to travel in the clouds."

The rest of the female relatives obviously didn't believe it, and asked: "We have never heard of the master and his disciples before. If Miss Sheng wants to lie, can't she be so blatant?"

"Why should I lie?"

Sheng An Ning has a certain photographic memory on her body, and she remembers the contents of the book clearly.Smiling to everyone: "Before leaving, the master gave me a set of gold needles, asking me to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, to help the world and save people."

She took out a set of golden needles engraved with Sanskrit from her bosom, smiled at Dao Yan, and said, "I have been taken care of by Zen Master Xiu all these years, and also taught An Ning medical acupuncture and moxibustion. When Master Xiu comes back, please come and tell me. "

Although Xiu Zen only appeared once in the book, he is very famous. He is the abbot of Jingju Temple. She used his name to bluff people.

Dao Yan inspected the golden needle, and seeing Sheng Anning's eyes became more friendly: "This is indeed the golden needle of the master. It turns out that the benefactor is really the disciple of the Zen master, Amitabha. Speaking of it, the master of the poor monk is the same generation as the benefactor, and the benefactor is called Brother Poor Monk, this poor monk is really broken."
