boudoir

Chapter 198
If it's an engagement, that's fine, it's just an impossible thought.If it hasn't been ordered yet, I don't know what trouble Yuhua will make of it.

Lu Muyang shook his head: "No. Wenhui looks good, comes from a good background, and has a well-recognized temperament. Most people can't climb high, and she doesn't look down on people who aren't the kind of outstanding people. Even my cousin liked her at the beginning. She also rejected it. Now Zhongyong Hou Shizi and his wife are also having a headache. Fortunately, she is only fifteen now, and there are still three years left, so she still has time to choose slowly."

What she said really meant that Duan Wenhui was picky, definitely not that she might cause trouble to Liuli, and she just told her that it was just a reminder, and she didn't want to keep her in the dark.But when she saw the cold smile on Liuli's lips, she felt more and more wrong.Liuli is not a soft persimmon, she has heard it a long time ago, if General Qi is in danger of losing peace with his wife in the future because of what she said, then she really cut off his head, and her mother will not let her go of!
But she didn't know that Liuli didn't think so at all.Now she doesn't care about who Qi Yunhao likes and who he doesn't like. Before she knows what kind of attitude he has in marrying her, she can only stand on the opposite side and live her own life.Could it be that she, a helpless concubine, has nothing to fight for justice with him, a town general?
There is no justice in this kind of marriage.She never thought that she would force him to give up his heart if she obtained her status through her husband's status.It is true that she is very grateful to Qi Yunhao for saving her back at a critical moment, and for giving her a title that many people envy, but can these things be forced?Disobedient servants can handle it, but husband and wife can't do it. Whether they can make friends or not, they care about voluntary.

If Qi Yunhao doesn't care about her as a husband and wife, then she just needs to quietly do what her wife should do, keep her three acres of land, and try to stand firm by the way, so that she can live as much as possible Just have a good time.

If he wanted to—oh no, it's too early to say.

In any case, for a concubine who has tasted all the bitterness and hotness, the most important thing is to live happily.

Even with such a small inside story, there is still Yuhua adding to the obstacles, but on such an occasion, among such a group of people, it is very unlikely that they would actually have a face-to-face conflict.Not only does Liuli need face, but Yuhua, as the only young mistress in Dingbei Palace, also needs face.

Perhaps out of guilt, Lu Muyang accompanied Liuli Huanhua the whole time, so the ladies who attended the banquet looked at the quasi-general's wife again.After all, as the hostess of today's banquet, Lu Muyang's every move is also full of special meaning. If she can be accompanied by the princess throughout the whole process, then the nine girls in the He Mansion must have something extraordinary.

Liuli Huanhua is Guo Xia's disciple, and he can't make mistakes in etiquette, and his responses are neither humble nor overbearing. At such a semi-formal banquet, it is not difficult to leave good comments.So along the way, I also met a few noble ladies with similar temperaments. Although because we met for the first time, the topic only stayed on poetry and female celebrities. Because Liuli also made some achievements in these two items, it was natural to chat Very happy.

Among them, there are quite a few people who have heard of the name of Mr. "Xu Yang". Lou Mingfang, the granddaughter of Zhongshu Zuo Cheng, couldn't hide her excitement: "Mr. Xu Yang's writing has been praised by my grandfather. There are only a handful of people on the right. We only have three or four in our family!"

Liuli laughed when he heard the word Xu Yang.Xu Yang was her alias when she was selling calligraphy. She has been selling calligraphy in Shangpin Study and earned a lot of money in these years, and at the same time her fame has gradually developed.It's just that I didn't expect that Master Zhongshu Zuocheng would give her face, which is really a bit surprising.

Seeing her smile, Lou Mingfang thought she didn't take it seriously, so he paused and said seriously: "Ms. Guo is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, Miss Nine is Mrs. Guo's favorite student, so naturally she has learned everything from Mrs. Guo. There are also tables here right now. There are also the four treasures of the study, why not ask Nine Girls to give me ink, and let us look up at Girls' calligraphy."

The girls next to him were familiar with Lou Mingfang, and they also admired Mr. Xu Yang very much. Naturally, she vented her nostrils and said one after another: "Please give me the word Ninth Girl."

Unexpectedly, Liuli laughed out of trouble, and immediately regretted it.He hurriedly said: "Miss misunderstood, Liu Li is so talented and inexperienced, how dare he disrespect Mr. Xu Yang? Just now he just felt ashamed, so he smiled."

Lou Mingfang laughed softly, and said, "Why should Nine Girls be overly modest? I think Nine Girls can get Mr. Guo to make an exception to accept apprentices, she must be different from ordinary people. Now that we know each other today, we will inevitably meet in the future. Think of it as writing adverbs to teach us, so that we can make friends with the girl when we meet in the future, won't the girl refuse to show her face?"

Zhongshu Zuocheng's granddaughter is indeed not easy to mess with.Lou Mingfang's words were written with guns and sticks, which made Liuli speechless.But this word is not easy to write. If she writes it well, people will think she is arrogant and showing off intentionally. If she fails to write it well, won't she be ridiculed even more?Today she came here to seek fame, if she fell for it, the loss outweighs the gain.

Lu Muyang and Huanhua hit it off very much, they were discussing painting of flowers and plants, and heard all the girls talking, so they rushed over.After hearing that Liuli wanted to write in public, compared with the rumored Mr. Xu Yang's handwriting, he couldn't help but think that Liuli was born as a concubine, and she only studied with Guo Xia for a few years, even if her handwriting was even better. Well, how can you compare with Mr. Na Xuyang?Seeing that Liuli was silent again, she was even more affirmed, and hurried out to smooth things over: "Liuli is a woman after all, how can she compare with such a calligrapher? It's not enough in terms of writing skills. She can also compose poems, why don't you let her compose poems?" ?”

In her opinion, although writing poetry is more difficult than writing, as long as you don't compare writing with Mr. Xu Yang, you can do it.

The girls like Lou Mingfang are not willing to do anything, Liuli doesn't respect Mr. Xu Yang in their hearts, this kind of thing can't be whitewashed with a few words.Although the face is still polite, the needles caught in the cotton are also very prickly.

Lu Muyang was a little anxious, and the girls and mistresses in the distance also came over when they heard the commotion.Although she inherited Xiao Qifei's warm and hospitable temperament, she was really helpless to deal with such a messy situation.

On the contrary, Huanhua knew what Liuli was worried about. After pondering for a moment, he walked up to Liuli and said, "Just write it. If you don't write about them, they won't let you go."

Liuli weighed it over and over again, sighed faintly, and nodded to Lou Mingfang: "Girls invite me, but Liuli dare not refuse. The handwriting is not good, so please give me some advice from the girls."

Lou Mingfang smiled and said, "Ninth Miss, please."

The girls followed Liuli to the desk and formed a circle to watch her pick up the pen.Huanhua was rubbing ink beside him.After the ink had been ground and the glass energy was sufficient, he picked up the pen and dipped it in the inkstone, and wrote down the pen on the rice paper calmly. In less than a moment, a small script "Like a Dream Order" was quickly written.

This regular script is Liuli's mask, her smock, just like the old man once commented: quite well-behaved.Is there a more suitable occasion for this kind of emotional conflict than writing this?
After Liuli finished writing, she picked up the two corners of the rice paper, blew lightly on the handwriting, raised her head and said to Lou Mingfang, "It's finished, please enlighten me."

Lou Mingfang's eyes are big and bright, but now they seem bigger and brighter.She took the rice paper, looked up at her after a while, and then returned her gaze to the word.Liuli folded her hands and waited quietly, neither smiling nor uneasy, she just stood quietly and waited.

The girls gathered around Lou Mingfang to read, and Lu Muyang was also reading.Huanhua looked at Liuli, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

"Handwriting is good, but if you practice hard for a few years, you can also acquire such an achievement." Some of the girls said this with a little dissatisfaction.

Lou Mingfang looked at it for a long time, put down the rice paper, and said: "Although hard work can achieve this result, after all, Nine Girls only practiced calligraphy with Mr. Guo for a few years. It is not bad to have such a result." After speaking, she turned around. Turning around, he smiled at Liuli and said: "From the perspective of this order, the girl is also a person who cares about calligraphy. If I meet again in the future, I will bring Mr. Xu Yang's writing to the girl to have a look at together. Appreciate appreciation."

"That's daring."

Liuli knew that she was trying to save face for herself. Although the girls from Zhongshu Zuocheng's mansion were more powerful, they had their own way of advancing and retreating. It seemed that this was the real lady of the family.Liuli also smiled at her sincerely, then picked up the rice paper, folded it in half, tore it up one by one, and threw it into the wastebasket.

Lou Mingfang watched her do it and didn't stop her. When she raised her head, she said, "It's just a joke, why do you do that?"

Liuli smiled and said: "Sister Chenglou thinks highly of it. Although this word has been praised by her sister, but as a woman, Liuli is not in compliance with the rules. Who among the girls can't write? It's just a joke, so it's better to tear it up." clean up."

Lou Mingfang looked at her, nodded slowly, took her hands together and said, "You are very different from what the rumors say."

Liuli smiled and said, "A few words in the rumors are true? I don't know what is being rumored to me."

Lou Mingfang sighed, and walked into the aisle with her: "It's fine if you don't know."

The luncheon in the palace was held in the warm pavilion, Princess Yu and other senior relatives did not attend, only Concubine Qi and sister-in-law Chunyang accompanied the banquet.

After the luncheon, Liuli ate tea and left at Princess Yu's with Huanhua and Lou Mingfang.Lou's mansion is in the east of the city, but they left after walking a certain distance with Liuli.

Liuli thought of the smile of the noble concubine next to Concubine Qi when she sent her out, and it was a little different from when she was greeted. I think it would be somewhat effective to show her face, and in addition, going out of the mansion like this, not only saw I met many rumored aristocrats and got to know a lot of people, which can be regarded as quite rewarding.Looking at Huanhua is also full of interest. Obviously, the worries about Sanfang have been put aside when he came here, and he feels very relieved.After all, she wants to walk steadily in the future, and she can't live without a few people by her side.The He Mansion is unreliable, and she has to cultivate those who are truly reliable.
