After His Majesty was reborn, the poor little girl in his previous life was spoiled to death
Chapter 79 Sprinkling Golden Peach
Hearing this, Ning'er and Ruozhan couldn't help but look at each other. Neither of them had expected that they would meet the eldest princess head-on so soon.
But at this point they had already stepped into the door, so it was impossible for them to go back, so they could only bite the bullet and walk inside.
Who would have thought that as soon as they turned around the screen wall, they would see a brilliant and colorful flower tree jumping into their eyes.
I saw the branches of the peach tree stretched out, the flowers flourished and connected like clouds, and they were gorgeous and unparalleled.
The rarest thing is that one tree has flowers in four colors: gorgeous scarlet, pure peach pink, pure white with green, and pink and white like cherry blossoms. It is so beautiful that it doesn't look like an ordinary tree on earth. It's like a fairy tree in heaven, which is breathtaking.
Ning'er and Lin Ruozhan were both stunned on the spot for a moment, and immediately put aside all their previous chaotic thoughts. The only thing left before their eyes was this eye-catching green peach tree.
After a long while, Lin Ruozhen let out a light breath and said with emotion: "The peach tree is young and beautiful, and its flowers are dazzling! I have never seen it before. No wonder the old Duke's golden peach tree is so famous, and people in the capital are competing to see it."
Ning'er couldn't take her eyes off. She murmured, "Oh my God, there are peach blossoms like this. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought it was a fabrication by a scholar. Otherwise, how could a tree bloom with four colors of flowers?"
But one person answered, "Young lady, your question is very good. I am asking this question on behalf of the master of the house."
This sentence scared them, and they came to their senses.
Turning around, I saw a very kind-looking middle-aged man standing behind Ning'er. He was wearing a crimson official robe and had a smile on his face.
His complexion was paler than that of ordinary men, his manner was subtly respectful, and he looked honest and amiable.
One step behind him, Princess Linping and Madam Ding and their group were looking at this place with complicated expressions.
Lin Ruozhen hesitated and asked, "What is your name, sir?"
Hearing this, the man looked at Ning'er with a smile, and even bowed, being a little too polite: "My surname is Wu, I dare not call you an elder."
Ning'er was a little confused by this man. His clothes were very exquisite and he seemed to be a man of status, but his words and actions were too humble, so Ning'er didn't know what to respond for a moment.
Seeing Princess Linping and the others coming over, Ning'er and Lin Ruozhen didn't care about anything else and hurried forward to greet them together: "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and to the Duke's wife."
Lin Ping glanced at the man standing respectfully beside Ning Er, and said softly, "No need to be polite."
The princess's attitude at this time did not seem like she was going to charge him with an offence. Ning Er breathed a sigh of relief, but then she saw the man who claimed to be surnamed Wu clasped his fists and bowed to Lin Ping, then smiled and said to Madam Ding, "I wonder if Madam can answer the question asked by the master of the house?"
Madam Ding looked at the princess hesitantly, and seeing that she did not express her opinion, she had to answer truthfully: "Since my father-in-law retired, he has been fascinated by flowers and trees, and often sent people to travel around the country to look for rare flowers and plants. This peach tree was also transported from Jiangdu by water two years ago. He carefully cultivated it for two years to achieve the present scenery."
"This tree is so rare that it has four colors of flowers on one tree. It is purely natural and not the result of grafting. Moreover, the color of the flowers is different every year..."
Mrs. Ding spoke perfunctorily, but Ning'er listened carefully and gained more knowledge. Her eyes drifted to the peach branches again. Such a wonderful sight was not created by human cultivation, so she could only sigh that it was the work of nature.
The man glanced at Ning'er's expression and thanked Madam Ding with satisfaction: "Thank you, Madam, for clearing up my doubts. In this case, I will have an explanation when I return."
Mrs. Ding looked at Princess Linping for help. It was obvious that this man was not from an ordinary family. The princess obviously knew him, but she did not want to reveal his identity.
Lin Ping had no choice but to introduce to Mrs. Ding: "This is Lord Wu."
She had a headache. Why did Wu Shilu not stay in Qianming Palace or Yuchen Hall for no reason and just ran here without saying hello?
But Lin Ping knew very well that the position of this eunuch in the emperor's heart was the same as her own, and she would never put on airs like an eldest princess in front of him.
But his arrival ruined all his previous plans.
Lin Ping originally planned to call Miss Lin who had offended Ying'er to come to Cuilu and give her a beating. But before she could call for help, Wu Shilu suddenly fell from the sky.
Immediately afterwards, the person she had originally wanted to find showed up as scheduled, but what else could she say in front of Wu Shilu?
You know, Wu Shilu usually never leaves the emperor's side, so it must be a bit strange that he suddenly appeared in Duke Dingguo's Mansion today.
The strangest thing was Wu Shilu's attitude towards Ning'er. He was respectful yet intimate. Even towards himself, he never treated him like that...
After hearing the eldest princess's nonsensical introduction, Mrs. Ding could only reply, "Lord Wu, you are too polite." She felt a little strange when she saw this man entering and leaving the inner house without any scruples and being so graceful in front of the female family members.
What was even more strange was that the princess treated Lord Wu with both courtesy and fear. Mrs. Ding couldn't help but wonder, who could make Lin Ping act like this?
Wu Shilu only smiled and accepted her gift, then turned around and looked at Ning'er eagerly: "Miss, I have an unwelcome request, may I trouble you to come?"
Ning Er was startled by him calling himself a "slave" and said hurriedly, "I am a weak person, how can I help you?"
When Wu Shilu saw her speak, his face was as bright as a flower, and his waist almost bent to the ground. He clapped his hands, and the servant behind him brought up a tray with a jade vase on it, and emphasized to Ning'er: "Miss, please look."
Ning'er took a look at it and her heart skipped a beat. The handwriting on the jade bottle looked very familiar. Then she heard Master Wu flatteringly say, "It is inconvenient for the master to go out and come in, and he really loves this flower. Could you please help me pick one for him, so that he can also see this spring scenery behind the high walls?"
When Ning'er saw the jade bottle, she knew that the "Lord Wu" in front of her was the one sent by Chu Huan. Her heart started pounding and she felt like she was doing something bad in public.
Ning Er thought, Chu Huan was too careless in this matter. Asking her to fold flowers in front of them, wouldn't this make people laugh at her behind her back? At the same time, she thought, it was obvious that he had someone watching her all the time, otherwise how would he know that she was here today? What was he doing?
But in fact, Chu Huan was not so cunning. When he learned that Ning'er was coming to Duke Dingguo's Mansion today, he couldn't help but want Wu Shilu to take a look at her for him.
The so-called picking flowers was just an excuse. Who would have thought that it was such a coincidence that the two sides met at the right time.
I must refuse directly, otherwise it will definitely arouse suspicion, Ning Er thought to herself, but when the words came to her lips, they turned into: "Master Wu, this flower is not mine. Whether I pick it or not is entirely up to you."
When Wu Shilu heard that there was a chance, he looked at Madam Ding with a smile and bowed: "I hope Madam Guogong will give me some favors."
Before Madam Ding could speak, Princess Linping held Madam Ding's hand and said with a forced smile, "It's just a peach blossom. I'm sure the Duke's Mansion will be willing to give it up."
After saying this, she looked at Mrs. Ding without saying anything until Mrs. Ding reacted and nodded reluctantly.
Wu Shilu smiled sincerely this time, and said to Ning'er more respectfully, "Miss, Madam Ding has agreed, so I'll have to trouble you to do it."
Ning'er, with the help of a group of servants, picked a peach blossom in a daze, and put the flower into the jade vase under Wu Shilu's eager gaze.
Looking at Lord Wu's brilliant smile, she suddenly had an idea and whispered, "Wait!"
