After Becoming the Hero’s Ex-fiancée - Chapter 16

[Chapter Sixteen]

“Master National Teacher, the Shoufu Palace has sent a letter again.”

The concierge Xiao Zhao Diandian came over and presented the sandalwood box from the Shoufu Palace to Cui Wang.

His lord has always been mysterious, but he hasn’t covered his face since he came back from the Shanglin Banquet a while ago. In Xiao Zhao’s view, the lord is a living Bodhisattva and immortal with the dignity of the treasure and can be compared with ordinary people. ?

But if you don’t care about it, you can’t slap someone in front of you or quit your relatives. Now that his adults are good-natured and transfer again, they just keep smearing their expressions, right?

The noble lady of the Zheng family is also very thick-skinned.

Xiao Zhao looked at the national teacher with a faint “uh” and put the sandalwood box back into his sleeve, and bowed his brows as before and sent them off.

If he hadn’t known that the adults of his family had the habit of standing in the atrium for a while every day, Xiao Zhao would have mistakenly thought that the adults were here specially waiting for the letter from the Zheng family.

Cui Wang returned to the academy.

He closed his eyes and practiced for a while, but this mortal world is too turbid, so it is not a place to practice, it is the lightning strike tree in Meiyuan. After refining the remaining thunder, it is not suitable for cultivation.

Cui Wang then opened his eyes again.

The sun slanted westward, hitting the sandalwood table, leaving a golden shadow. His eyes fell on the delicate and small sandalwood box that was shrouded in shadows. It was square, and a wooden hibiscus was carved on it.

Cui Wang opened it.

Lying in the box was a peach blossom note, light white powder, just like the peach blossoms in March.

“Looking like a letter: Is Mr. Cui okay recently? It rained a lot last night. When I woke up this morning, there was a bloom of begonias in the courtyard, and I gave Mr. a branch.”

Cui Wang took out a begonia from the box.

It was probably a bumpy road, and the red and bright begonia petals were already wilted and half withered. He casually inserted it into a blue and white porcelain vase on the Bogu shelf.

“When Ayachao came back from the meeting, he passed by Shun’an Building, and brought a golden naan cake to Wanniang with a pot of good pear blossom white. The pear blossom white is clear and sweet, and the taste is very delicious, but it is a pity that Mr. Cui is not in the house, otherwise Wan will not be there. Mother must invite Mr. Cui to eat a cup. Mother Wan was bored and hit a sword spike. Is Mr. Cui happy? The day after tomorrow is the birthday of Lord Rong Yiting, and Aye finally agreed to let Mother Wan go to Yanchun. I attended the banquet in the garden, but unfortunately there has been a lot of things happening in the house recently, and Mother Wan has not made new clothes yet…”

A piece of paper rambles, all daughters are cumbersome.

Cui Wang put the letterhead into a purple-green box in front of him that was neither gold nor silver. There was a faint rune of rank five running on the box. Inside the box was a stack of the same letterhead.

“Xiao Wangwang, you will use this invincible red wooden box to hold this Lao Shizi’s love letter? Ruthless things! Ruthless things!”

“Ancestor is out again?”

“Your wife and grandfather, if I like to retreat, I will retreat. If I like to go out, I will go out. What’s the matter with you?” I escaped from someone’s mansion, the waves are surging here, and I almost got your ancestors wet, what should I do, it can make you feel agitated, it turns out that I am moved by the young lady!”

“Make you look like a monk who eats fast and recites Buddha all day long, hum!”

“Hey, talk!”

“Tell me, just because you can’t beat a fart with your ten sticks, how can you call someone so infatuated and write love letters to you every day with your cold face? God, if you continue like this, it’s time for people to empathize and stop falling in love.”

“Ancestor thinks she… how sincere?”

Cui Wang’s eyes were gloomy, and he looked out the window with his hands behind his back. There was a bare branch that had not yet been drawn.

“10! 100%! If it’s really dry, the drought will die, and the flood will die. If I want the old ancestor to have your face, the harem will go from Yi to Wanhai! All of them have to give up.” The old ancestor touched Touching his face, he said angrily, “It’s a pity that I have a baby face, and my little sister thinks I’m a younger brother… If I die, I won’t be able to.”

“Huh?” Just when the old ancestor was about to describe the “desolation” of the past, he suddenly cried out in surprise, stared into the sea of consciousness for a long time before describing it strangely, “I have to study it carefully.”

After all, the old ancestor, who had just shouted not to get his clothes wet, rushed into the sea of knowledge, and went directly under the water, and did not come up for a long time.

Cui Wang flicked his sleeves and closed the red wooden box.

sincere……

An unknown sigh passed through the wind, and after a while, it dissipated again.

——

On the birthday of Lord Rong Yiting, Zheng Wan woke up early.

The birthday banquet was held in Yanchun Garden, which was only a moment away from Zheng Mansion. She was not in a hurry to go, and she dressed up with rouge in front of the mirror.

“Do you still want to paint the plum blossoms today, little lady? You were a big show at the Shanglin Banquet, and now noble ladies in Beijing like to order plum blossoms between their eyebrows.”

“No need.”

Zheng Wan shook her head. The first time she saw Cui Wang, she wanted to make a grand appearance, so she put on a plum blossom and a brocade skirt, but today she was going to play that delicate girl.

“Today is the birthday of Master Rong Yiting. You don’t have to be too sharp to steal the limelight from the master, and it will only make people unhappy.”

Zheng Wan only cleaned her face, and smeared cream on her face, neck, and hands. She also chose a light mouth fat, and when she applied it, her lips were very pale, and there was no blood at all.

“You look like you have a serious illness.”

Rouge wants to put some powder on her new water rouge to make her look better.

Huo Dai vaguely touched the little lady’s thoughts and stopped Rouge, “Isn’t the little lady suffering from a serious illness? Why do you need to make a swollen face and make a fat man, it’s fine.”

It’s his birthday, the clothes are not easy to wear too plain, so I chose a peach powder palace gauze, a chest-length skirt with a peach pattern on the skirt, the spring is cold and the weather is cold, and the others are already light and beautiful, and Zheng Wan still wears a large white cloak. , The collar of the big cloak is surrounded by fine velvet, which makes the little face even whiter.

“In such an ordinary dress, it seems that the little lady has become more and more reduced.”

Rouge grunted, seeing that the little lady and Lu Dai were silent, so she gave up.

Zheng Wan was picking and choosing among the hairpins, but she didn’t pick the bloody stone hairpin, she thought, since Cui Wang didn’t ask, she didn’t mention it, and just made this “transition” vague.

“Let’s go.”

This time, Wang Shi and Zheng Wan rode together in a car, and they soon arrived outside Yanchun Garden. The aunt next to the eldest princess was waiting outside and greeted the two together.

“Today is Mu Xiu, the sage said that our pavilion master is rare to do a big job, and he specially dispatched the prince to celebrate his birthday with the pavilion master. Now a group of young people are all stubborn in Naliluoyuan, and Wanniang does not need to be with us. The old fool is going to find his sisters to be stubborn.”

The eldest princess slapped Zheng Wan and let her do it herself.

Zheng Wan thanked the eldest princess for being sympathetic, chatted with her mother a few times, and then led Huidai to Liluoyuan by the little maid who led the way.

“Master National Teacher is coming?”

On the way, she asked, looking earnestly.

“I haven’t heard the news of the coming of the National Teacher.” The little maid probably also heard about the recent rumors in Beijing. She admired the “courage” of the noble lady of the Zheng family, and pitied her for her infatuation with nowhere to go.

What about a noble girl, there are things you can’t get.

“It’s the prince, the king of Jin, and the king of Huai, who are all here. Well, they are stubbornly in the pavilion with the pavilion owner and the county owner.”

Zheng Wan raised her head, and sure enough, on the Lijia Pavilion behind the flowing water rockery behind the Moon Gate, a group of young ladies were playing against the cup. The buds of the white pears stood out, and I saw a new green.

“Wan Niang! Come here!”

Today’s birthday star Rong Yiting’s face was flushed with stubbornness. Seeing a beautiful woman coming from a distance, he took a closer look. It was really her, and he raised his hand and called her over.

When I got to Lijia Pavilion, Zheng Wan took off her cloak and handed it over to Hui Dai. Everyone saw that she was almost incomparably weak. Even though she was wearing a palace pink gauze, her face was still white and bloodless, and she lost a lot of weight. The dark eyes seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.

The little lady of the Zheng family has always been high-spirited, when did she show her timidity in front of outsiders?

Such a weak and slender appearance made everyone believe the rumor very much. Most of the girls are happy in their hearts, but the feelings in the hearts of the sons are not the same. The arrogant beauty has always been daunting, but now this beauty has been frustrated for a while, showing such a cowardly and weak appearance, but it makes people feel more itchy. .

Rong Qin was naturally rude.

On the stone boat that day, the national teacher showed his true face. Which little lady in the waiting room was not very excited, and she looked like that, even if she didn’t have the supernatural power, she was willing to marry, but she was so good. An ordinary person actually has a lot of love for Zheng Wan – seeing that her high-rise building is about to collapse, who would have come to sit and lie down in a 100-zhang Tianque for her, wouldn’t it make people grit their silver teeth and gnash their teeth with hatred?

Therefore, when he heard that during Zheng Wan’s treatment, he had offended the National Teacher to the death and refused to come to the door again, and Rong Qin ate an extra bowl of rice that night.

“Wan Niang, your health is so bad, why don’t you rest in the mansion? After all, there is no national teacher to heal you now.” Rong Qin looked concerned.

Zheng Wan opened her eyes wide, and she was hurt at first, but she regained her spirits quickly, “It’s not good for me to be absent on the birthday of Lord Rong Yiting.”

“Good day, you—”

Jiang Sanniang always hit wherever Rong Qin pointed, “—Who doesn’t know about your wife, Zheng’s wife, she has withdrawn from her two kisses in a row, and the pavilion master hasn’t discussed her kiss yet. You’re doing this because you want to pass on your bad luck to her. ?”

The Second Lady Liu looked at the Prince’s face, and hurriedly smoothed out:

“Don’t talk like that, nine times out of ten things in life are unsatisfactory, and Miss Zheng is only recently…”

“Yeah, I finally climbed a big Buddha and offended people with a bad temper, but don’t I have to repent?”

Zheng Wan counted the follower one, the follower two, and the follower three in her heart, and told herself not to worry about it. Isn’t she here to let Cui Wang, who has gone to the sea of consciousness, take a look at her current situation.

A weak and cowardly woman, this weak and cowardly is her weapon.

The sons wanted to say a few words for help, but this was just gossip between women, and there was no way to get in the way.

“Master National Teacher is here.”

At this moment, the steward of Liluoyuan came to report in a hurry, the sweat on his forehead was still dripping, and a snow-colored figure had already appeared on the path.

With a long sleeved robe and blue silk like waterfalls, he seemed to be covered in snow, but when the snow hit Zheng Wan’s face, it was soft and warm.

She rolled her eyes and smiled sweetly. Ah, bet right again.
