[Red Mansion Qing Chuan] Lin Siye Marries a Daughter

Lin Hai's letter was very simple, but there were only four words: "Let nature take its course". In the past two years, Daiyu followed Lin Hai and read a lot of Buddhist scriptures, so she naturally understood Lin Hai's meaning. He felt calm, and his eyes became clear.

When Zijuan came in with tea, seeing Daiyu's calm expression, she couldn't help but said happily: "Miss." Looking up at Zijuan, Daiyu's eyes flickered: "What are you shouting so loudly? Not deaf."

Zijuan replied with a smile: "Yes, I understand, let's drink tea, girl."

Li Wanmei's courtyard is on the west side of the harem, which belongs to Concubine Jiang's Xiuchun Palace. Although it is not big, it is well-organized. It is the time when the sky and the sky meet, and the heavy night makes everything covered with a thin layer of tulle, ethereal. quiet.

"Your concubine, it's getting late, I'm afraid the father-in-law in the respect room won't come, go back and rest." The servant girl came over quietly, and put a gauze on Li Guanmei: "The wind at night is still a bit cool."

"You go back, it's fine anyway, I want to sit here for a while." Li Wanmei leaned on the porch pillar, looking at a few vines not far away, said in a low voice.

The surroundings became quiet again, the white vines were busily blooming, and a faint fragrance wafted over with the wind. With a familiar feeling, she sighed softly, and Li Wanmei's thoughts drifted back to the past.

Outstanding appearance, elegant demeanor, and the identity of the second lady of the Li family made Li Wanmei all the glory in Yangzhou, and it also made her look forward to coming to Beijing with high self-esteem.

Although Li Ren is a high-ranking member of the party, he has never been satisfied. It is said that there are people in Beijing who are easy to be officials, so he put his idea on his daughter, and Li Wanmei has lived up to expectations. Women are selected.

The first time I met Ning Chu, Li Wanmei remembered it very clearly. It was a gloomy evening. Li Wanmei was teasing fish by the pool, and her younger sister Li Wan ran over excitedly: "Second sister, hurry up and have a look, there are guests in the house, listen Said it was an imperial envoy from the capital."

"What's there to see? People who can be imperial envoys are either old men or sour scholars." Li Wan continued to fiddle with the flowers and branches in her hand without raising her eyebrows.

"I know, but the entourage next to the imperial envoy is very special. One of them imitates others' speech very much, it is almost the same. You don't know, he just imitated Li Long, and I laughed to death."

Raising her head, Li Wanmei said lightly: "Really, I have only seen this kind of craftsmanship in books before..." "That's right, go and have a look, it's very interesting, and there is also the second sister, there is a Mr. Well... I don't know how to say it, anyway, when I saw him, I immediately thought of eight words."

Li Wanxin intentionally bought it, and said with a smile, "You'll know when you see it." Li Wanmei stood up because of what Li Wanxin said, and said, "Come on, let's go and have a look, but don't let father know."

Li Wan smiled happily: "I see, my father is accompanying the guests in the front hall."

When she saw Ning Chu for the first time, Li Wanmei only felt that her eyes brightened, and all the scenery was dimmed in an instant, leaving only that person, Fenghua monopolized.

"Humble gentleman, gentle as jade" these eight words popped up all of a sudden, making Li Wanmei finally understand Li Wanxin's mood just now.

"Second sister, it's the one in green clothes. I seem to have heard someone call him Zimo..." Li Wan murmured something in his ear, but Li Wanmei didn't listen at all, and just whispered: "That's Mr. Chu .”

Only then did Li Wanxin come to his senses: "Yes, Second Sister, the people in the capital are really different. The servants around the Imperial Envoy all have such a bearing, so the Emperor wouldn't..."

"Okay, let's go back first." Li Wanmei's expression became indifferent: "It's hard to say if the servants see it." After walking a long way, Li Wanmei looked back, and there was a gloomy look in her beautiful almond eyes. Her identity is already a show girl on the list, no matter whether it is for the glory of the family or the career of her father, she has no choice.

Unexpectedly, Li Ren's words at night made Li Wanmei feel like a little bit of surprise, and it turns out that Mr. Chu turned out to be... At the same time of surprise, Li Wanmei was also moved by heaven's favor and me.

Therefore, with the convenience of being close to the water, Li Wanmei and Ning Chu met unexpectedly. Coupled with Li Wanxin's lively heart, everything came naturally. With Li Ren's instruction, Li Wanmei gradually became familiar with Ning Chu and the others until...

Li Wanmei knew about Daiyu being stunned by Aunt Xiu in Buffong Embroidery that day, and she was also in the Embroidery at that time. As for Daiyu, Li Wanmei heard about Daiyu from Li Wanxin's mouth. Ling, a talented girl.

Meeting Ningchu and Li Wanmei in Xiuzhuang did not expect at all, and never thought that someone with Ningchu's identity would visit the cloth village. Only after hearing Daiyu's voice did Li Wanmei really understand the reason for Ning Chu's visit.

Ning Chu is a person who has no color of joy or worry. No matter what time, he always looks calm and breezy. Even if he laughs, he is indifferent and polite. After knowing each other for so many days, Li Wanmei has never seen Ning Chu have the slightest affection. When you lose your composure, you always look confident, but that day...

The voice in the room was clear and calm, even Li Wanmei admired that under such circumstances, Daiyu could still speak clearly, although the meaning of the words was puzzling.

At that moment, Li Wanmei, who liked to keep an eye on Ning Chu secretly, saw that Ning Chu's slender, white hand trembled inadvertently. Although he quickly clenched it tightly and tried to hide his gaffe, the protruding veins showed that express his anger and concern.

Li Wanmei learned about the rest from her father, and it was at that moment that Li Wanmei knew that she had a strong opponent...

"Your concubine, Mother Wang from Xiuchun Palace is here, and she says she wants to see your concubine." Woke up from her contemplation, Li Wanmei said: "Let her come here, Xizi, go and get me a cushion, I want to see you again." Sit down for a while."

Wang Momo is about forty years old, with a pointed chin and round eyes, she is full of intelligence: "I have seen your concubine." Li Wanmei raised her eyes and said softly: "What's the matter, let's talk."

Wang Momo looked around, and then said in a low voice: "Master has two words that I want my servant to tell your concubine." Moving closer, Wang Momo said in a low voice: "Master said that your concubine should not forget yourself. Only by keeping one's own identity in order to be safe, otherwise..."

"You back down." Li Wanmei said calmly: "Go back and tell your master, I understand."

Seeing Wang Momo leave, Li Wanmei breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a low voice: "I never thought that the calm Prince Chu would send someone over for such a trivial matter, but it turns out that you are not heartless, but... "

Closing her eyes, Li Wanmei's eyes flashed what happened after entering Beijing.

In the magnificent palace, Li Wanmei was as novel and excited as all the beautiful women who entered the palace together, but Li Wanmei was not nervous, Li Ren's words were still in my ears when she arrived: "Don't be nervous, the prince said he will arrange, you Just go through the motions, Wan Mei, you really don't regret it, he is just a prince, and he is also a side concubine, if you can be chosen by the emperor, then you will be very expensive in the future."

"Father, my daughter only asks for the matter of father. If she can...even if she is just a side concubine, my daughter is willing. Besides, the world is impermanent, maybe in the future..."

"Okay, I've already written the letter, and the king of Chu promised before he left that he will definitely help with this matter, so you just need to hand the letter to him after you enter Beijing."

Goodbye Ning Chu was in the study room of Prince Chu’s mansion. When Zimo walked in with Li Wanmei who was covered by a cloak, Ning Chu was leaning over to write something on the desk. Maybe it was in his own mansion. , with wide sleeves and flowing clouds, adding a bit of leisure.

"Miss Li is here." Ning Chu still had that calm and elegant look: "How is Mrs. Li?" Li Wanmei saluted: "Thank you, my father, my father is very good, and before leaving, I asked Wan Mei to greet the lord on his behalf." .”

Ning Chu smiled faintly: "Miss Li, you are welcome, I already know the purpose of your visit..." Picking up the handkerchief on one side and wiping his hands, Ning Chu said unhurriedly: "Since Master Li has agreed to this matter, The Ministry of Internal Affairs has already agreed, so don't worry Miss Li, just follow the rules and walk down."

Li Wanmei secretly glanced at Ning Chu, hesitated again, and then said in a low voice: "My lord, my father has a letter that I want Wan Mei to deliver to my lord."

"Oh..." Ning Chu took the letter and read it without paying attention. Dong Ming raised his eyes and didn't make a sound.

Li Guanmei was clutching the handkerchief in her hand, the thick cloak had been taken off, revealing a fair neck, although her head was slightly lowered, but it just carried a kind of unspoken charm, under the light, Li Guanmei's skin was better than snow , with a delicate face like jade, with a national beauty and heavenly fragrance.

"Miss Li is a self-recommendation." Ning Chu's tone was very flat, without a hint of joy or anger. Looking at it with provocative eyes, Li Wanmei felt like she was in the street where everyone was watching, without a piece of clothing. Awkward.

But thinking of her own thoughts, Li Wanmei still plucked up her courage, and said in a low voice: "Wan Mei is overconfident because she really admires the prince's demeanor, and Wan Mei also knows that the prince is a dragon and phoenix among men, so precious, so she doesn't dare to ask for extravagance. just ask...

Coughing lightly, Ning Chu interrupted Li Wanmei's unfinished sentence: "Young lady's courage surprised me." Tapping on the desk in front of her lightly, Ning Chu continued: "This king has known her since I was in Yangzhou. Girl, based on my understanding of girls, what I just said just now is not like the girl she used to be."

Ning Chu's phoenix eyes are brilliant: "The girl is a person with high spirits, and the talents of the characters are all outstanding, so how can she be condescended to be the side concubine of a prince? Even if the girl is willing to do this, the king can't bear it."

Sighing pretending to be regretful, Ning Chu continued: "What's more, with the girl's talent, appearance and ability, she should be the one who flies on the branches. The glory of the Li family and Master Li's official career can all be tied to the girl. Guangzong Yaozu, prosperous, the girl is also a smart person, how could she disregard the Li clan for her own selfishness, if this is the case, then I will let down my king's appreciation for the girl in the past."

"Actually, the king agreed to Mr. Li to accomplish this matter because he admired the girl's way of doing things. The girl has a high vision and a big ambition. She will definitely get her wish in the future. However, what happened today makes me regret."

After Ning Chu's eloquent words, Li Wan's brows flushed slightly, and he was both surprised and happy. What surprised him was that Ning Chu was outspoken. What pleased him was that he admired him very much when he was in Yangzhou. Over the years, he knew everything well, and he couldn't bear to let himself be wronged as a side concubine.

At this moment, Li Wanmei only felt his heart agitated. With Ning Chu's heartfelt words, if a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire were in front of him at this moment, Li Wanmei felt that he might walk on without even frowning.
