When Emperor Wu dressed as Darcy's sister

The walls of the bedroom, which were originally painted with a layer of white paint, are tightly covered with rose-red feather satin from the far east; the bare beech floor is decorated with a rich and exotic Turkish carpet with large flowers;

Living in the middle of the idyllic bed is the most moving place - the original plain bedding, the pillow cover is covered with silver silk blue brocade, and the mattress quilt is replaced with soft and close-fitting brocade of the same color.The curtains on the brackets were replaced with expensive oriental jacquard woven gold embroidered satin, and the outermost layer of the whole bed was covered with a layer of soft and tight silver-red gauze. Looking at it through the candlelight at night, the hazy color became more and more intense.

Even the ordinary machine-woven cotton cushions on the sofa were replaced with a dark red velvet cover, scattered around the sofa, waiting for the owner of the room to move at will.

The whole bedroom has a new look, as if it has transformed from an ordinary country house into an oriental palace in an instant.

It took Qingniang and Sara less than an hour to do this, and all the furnishings were brought from Pemberley—it only took less than two of the four large boxes.

Caroline was dumbfounded, and couldn't help getting up from the sofa in the living room, fondled the bed curtain, quilt, and wall hanging one by one enviously, and finally sat down on the sofa carefully and patted the pillows.During this period, the foot still seemed to be unconsciously brushing the Turkish carpet on the ground.

Wu Zhao had no doubt that if the three of them were not still here, Caroline would have knelt down and touched the carpet with her own hands to confirm the texture of this expensive imported product.

Sara took a peek at Caroline, who was immersed in luxurious enjoyment, and looked at Wu Zhao with a smile on her neck, and gestured with her mouth: Your Majesty, she doesn't want to leave.

Wu Zhao was lying on the back of the sofa watching with great interest, shaking his head secretly in his heart, if he really married into Darcy's family after seeing this appearance, he would not be a competent hostess.

She glanced sideways at Qing Niang.

"Cough..." Qing Niang understood, laughed twice before coughing and reminding: "Miss Bingley, Miss Bingley? It's getting late..."

"Ah? Ah..." Caroline just came back to her senses. After realizing what she had done, her face was flushed, and she stood up from the sofa quickly, and made excuses for herself as she walked outside. "It's rare for me to see such an oriental-style decoration, so I'm fascinated by it."

She walked from the bedroom to the living room with her skirt in a panic, half-holding the door of the living room, with a embarrassed smile on her face, and forced a smile: "I won't disturb your rest."

After she finished speaking, before Wu Zhao could make a sound, she turned around and fled. Not long after, she heard the sound of thud, thud, thud, from the old wooden stairs of Netherfield Manor.When the sound of footsteps went away, and guessing that Caroline had already arrived downstairs, both Qing Niang and Sara couldn't help laughing.

On the contrary, Wu Zhao didn't feel like laughing anymore, just shook his head and sighed: "Big brother really won't like this appearance. I'm afraid Miss Bingley wasted all her efforts."

Qing Niang took two steps, and while closing the door that Caroline didn't bother to close when she left, she turned her head and smiled, "It's the first time I've seen it.

Miss.It's a pity that the noble ladies of the Tang Dynasty were all astute as ghosts. No matter how much they beat and scolded and lost their temper when they returned home, they had never revealed their shallowness in front of others. "

She was pushing the door, when she suddenly felt her hands sinking, she hurriedly looked out in surprise, but saw that there was no one else outside the door, it turned out that it was Darcy who came over to greet Bingley.

"Are you ladies still used to being here?" Darcy asked as he motioned for Qingniang to open the door and walked in.

Without Qingniang answering, Wu Zhao heard it from inside first.She didn't even get up from the sofa, so she hugged a pillow and replied with a smile: "It's all the utensils brought from Pemberley, and there's nothing I can't get used to, but my brother, I didn't bring much else. I should ask Are you - Netherfield's room still fit?"

"The two of you, brother and sister, don't care about others when you talk about it, do you still think this is the Tower of London?" Sarah said with a smile before Darcy.

She knew that Darcy had something to say to Wu Zhao, so she took Qingniang's hand, deliberately joking, and then hid in the room prepared for the two of them, "Miss, everything is packed here, and we will talk about it tomorrow in the living room." It’s not too late. I’ll ask for a vacation, and at least light up the fireplace in the next room, otherwise people who are cold in winter won’t be able to sleep.”

Wu Zhao understood what she meant, smiled and waved for the two to leave, and took a cushion and put it on the sofa next to her, "Brother, sit down."

Darcy did have something to say to Wu Zhao, so he sat down on the sofa, watched Qing Niang and the two of them go out and carefully closed the door of the living room, and then said in a deep voice, "Gina, originally this matter is not right. I should be the one to ask you, but my mother passed away early, and Mrs. Reynolds is not here, so I have to ask——are you favoring Earl Stuart?"

The second half of the sentence was like a boulder, and Darcy was worried, so he mustered up his courage to ask such a straightforward question.

He didn't want any ambiguity between Wu Zhao and Stuart. Darcy really had lingering fears for Wickham.He had to think, could his little sister really stand another emotional blow?

Stuart was different from Wickham. He was young and promising, and had a high position and authority. He not only had a lot of weight among the court dignitaries in London, but even had a lot of influence in the armies of the three places in the UK.

Such a person, even in the top aristocratic families in London, is the existence that makes those ladies flock to him regardless of his indifferent attitude.

These not only did not become a plus point in Darcy's heart, but made him more worried - would Georgiana really be tempted to get along with such a young talent of similar age?

But once he was tempted, how could Georgiana bear it if Stuart changed his mind?And it wouldn't be like dealing with a rascal like Wickham and letting Darcy deal with it. He deeply understood that his current ability was far behind Stuart's!

Darcy could not bear that his sister might be hurt in this way, and that he could do nothing about it.He wanted to tell himself that Stuart had always been indifferent and had been reluctant to marry due to the influence of his family, so it was impossible for Georgiana and him to have anything more than a friend, but the weird scene between the two this morning made him

Uneasy.

Stuart's uniqueness towards Wu Zhao made him seem to have noticed something, so he couldn't sit still at this time, and he must come to Wu Zhao to ask for clarification.

It's a pity that Wu Zhao is not a naive Georgiana, she can't obey Darcy's heart, let alone...

"Brother, you think too much." Wu Zhao leaned on the armrest of the couch with a natural expression, "At least until I'm 20, I don't plan to get married."

"Why?" Darcy looked back at her in surprise.

Wu Zhao blinked slyly, "I heard that the justice is promoting the "Married Women's Property Law". After this law is issued, even though unmarried ladies can't own their own property, at least the property after marriage can be obtained. Assure."

"I can control the property that belongs to me, instead of watching it fall into the hands of others, but I have no legal position to pursue it."

"Brother, I hope to have some protection—you can't protect me for the rest of my life."

Darcy looked dissatisfied, and was just about to speak up to object, saying that no matter what happened in the future, he would be Wu Zhao's solid backing.Wu Zhao stretched out his hand and put a finger on his lips, "Listen to me first."

"Brother, whether you want to admit it or not. We can't guarantee that in the long decades to come, you will be more distracted by other things-isn't Wickham an example? Even God, it is inevitable that there will be times of negligence. In this case, you also hope that I can protect myself?"

"So," Wu Zhao looked serious, "As the most direct and most powerful guarantee, property is the foundation of my foothold, and I hope to have sufficient control over my property."

Wu Zhao's long series of words left Darcy speechless.

He took a deep breath, patted Wu Zhao's shoulder with a complex expression, and sighed: "I will help you, Gina. Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that you have grown up."

Wu Zhao's heart was also slightly sore and soft, and the eye sockets were slightly moist.She sniffed and covered it up: "Then I'll thank you brother first."

After this conversation, Darcy's mood inexplicably relaxed a lot, and most of the big stones in his heart that were worried about his sister's influence by Wickham and her future future were emptied in an instant.

He stood up easily, and said with a smile, "I won't disturb your rest, Gina—by the way, a nearby squire will come to visit tomorrow. I remember Charles said it was a Sir and a famous nearby squire, Benedict." Mr. Te, are you interested to listen to it?"
