Chapter 76:
Liu Wanning has a great reputation in the capital. Not only is she the most beautiful woman, the fact that she is infatuated with His Highness the Crown Prince has spread throughout the capital.
The people who can accompany Xiao Junzhan to the garden are all young talents from the capital. Only when his family background and talents catch his eye can he retain his reputation.
These people were also happy to give Duke An Guo's daughter some face, so they were all quiet at this time, and no one made a sound.
Just looking at this picture of a beautiful lady saluting with her beautiful eyes flowing around, I couldn't help but secretly thought that their Highness's determination was indeed extraordinary.
It's a pity that Liu Wanning cast her charming eyes at the blind man. Xiao Junzhan didn't look away and said softly: "No courtesy."
What I was thinking about was whether my action just now was abrupt, and whether it would make Ran Ran angry again.
Liu Wanning didn't see that the Crown Prince whom she longed for personally helped Wei Hanzhang, and she didn't know that there were girls who could be treated differently by him.
Hearing this, she showed just the right amount of shyness on her face, and said softly: "Thank you, Your Highness."
The shame in this tone was very obvious, and Xiao Junzhan lowered his eyes and glanced at her, his eyes calm.
Ning Hai on the side saw this, walked up to Liu Wanning, raised his arms and said: "Miss Liu, please step back."
Liu Wanning's expression was slightly dull. She knew that the prince did not look at her this time, so she forced a smile on her face, but she was really unwilling to do so. With her appearance, how could he be willing to treat her like this if he was willing to take a serious look at her.
—
He has been looking forward to the decision to choose a concubine every day. After five years of looking forward to it, he still has no intention of marrying a wife. Even His Majesty can't force him.
Just wait a little longer…
A woman’s flowering age is only a few years, how can she afford it?
Liu Wanning still doesn't want to believe that there is actually a man in the world who holds a high position, has no love for women, and is a prince among thousands of people.
Even if...even if he really has a hidden illness, shouldn't he need a concubine to cover it up?
The experience of returning to Prince Yan's Mansion last time made her really fearful of this arrogant Crown Prince, but deep down in her heart, her desire for power became even deeper.
She should have climbed to the highest position a woman can reach, respected by millions of people, and could make the difference between life and death while talking and laughing, instead of lying on the ground, kneeling before others, and being despised and ridiculed by others.
As long as she can enter the East Palace and stay with him, she is willing even if it is just a pretense in name only!
Liu Wanning's heart was really turning over and over again, but she couldn't help it even if she couldn't give in. In the end, fear prevailed. She raised her eyes and looked at the noble young man carefully, and saw that his expression became more and more indifferent. He recalled the past and did not dare to do it again. disturb.
I was so sore in my heart, and stayed again. If she annoyed him, what would she do if she kneeling in public in public.
Liu Wanning bowed again and left sadly.
When Wei Hanzhang saw it, he quickly followed the same example and gave him a blessing, saying: "My daughter has also retired."
Xiao Junzhan's eyes flashed slightly, and he felt really reluctant to give up. After a slight pause, he softly said: "...Where to go?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings fell into dead silence again, and many people cast their gazes on Wei Hanzhang without leaving any trace.
Ning Hai, who was standing aside, also lowered his head silently.
Wei Hanzhang has always felt that he was thick-skinned compared to the girls of this era, but at this moment he was really blushing at the strange atmosphere. She was very upset, but in front of so many people, she didn't dare to make any mistakes. She could only lower her head and say in a low voice: "Go to my sixth sister's place."
Xiao Junzhan also realized that his question was inappropriate. He thought about making up for it. After hearing this, he nodded and said: "Okay, let's go."
“…” Wei Hanzhang was silent. Didn’t this person think that their conversation was really abnormal when they met for the first time?
Not daring to meet her father's complicated eyes, Wei Hanzhang turned around and left after blessing her again.
The back figure was so hasty that Xiao Junzhan felt a little panicked when he saw it.
…That girl won’t **** him off again, right?
Ning Hai silently wiped the sweat from his forehead. Except for him, no one here knew how difficult it was for His Highness. He clearly wanted to keep someone but was worried about being in the public eye, which made his sweetheart angry.
What will the Wei family girl do if she doesn't reconcile with His Highness? It's not a problem to visit her boudoir all night long.
Ning Hai, the head chamberlain, was extremely worried.
Xiao Junzhan was also worried. His plan today was to have a few words with the girl, but when he saw the girl, he was reluctant to leave.
He stood there for a while, wondering whether he should just go back to the palace. He seemed to be distracted and no one dared to disturb him.
After a long while, he looked sideways at Wei Heng, who was slightly dazed, and said quietly: "Since I'm here to attend the wedding banquet, I also went to see the newlyweds welcoming the bride and join in the fun."
…
Wei Hanzhang continued to walk towards Jianxia Courtyard. This time, Grandma Wu was extremely quiet. She didn't know what was going on in her mind, and she fanned a little more earnestly.
Lu Zhu, who was on the other side, had long known about the relationship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his master. She was carrying a secret that no one knew. She was excited and nervous, and her face turned red. Fortunately, the weather was very hot, so she looked like this. It's too abrupt.
The master and servant have not yet reached Jianxia Courtyard, and they can hear the noise coming from far away.
Nowadays, whether a noble or a commoner marries his daughter, it is the same.
In order to show the delicacy of the girl in the family, on the day of the bride’s wedding, the girl’s family will invite all the girls from other people’s families who have grown hair to celebrate.
First, happy events should be lively. The more people there are, the more festive they are.
Furthermore, when the groom comes to pick up the bride, most of them will call a few unmarried friends to help out. On one side are the girls who have grown hair, and on the other side are the unmarried men. Naturally, they also want to celebrate.
Thirdly, the girls who are invited to make a happy occasion will deliberately make things difficult for the groom when he comes to pick up the bride, so that he will know that it is not so easy to welcome the bride.
Today the groom, Shen Yu, arrived early. At this time, he had passed several levels and arrived at the last level - outside the boudoir door.
The gentlemen who had accompanied him to pick up the bride were urging him to open the door inside.
Inside the door were all the girls who were friends with the Wei family. They were thinking of ways to embarrass the groom outside. They asked for poems and drinks because the bride was dressing up.
Since he came to pick up the bride, he was naturally prepared for it. He wrote poems to encourage her to make up. Several gentlemen who accompanied Shen Yu to pick up the bride each drank several large bowls of wine.
When Wei Hanzhang arrived, the door was opened, and Shen Yu was escorted in by her friends.
Wei Hanshuang, dressed in a bright red wedding dress, sat upright on the bed, holding a fan to cover her face.
