Dali Temple Small Dining Room

Chapter 418: Stewed Chicken with Mushrooms and Rice N

This sentence is also in Wen Mingtang's mind: she doesn't believe in Concubine Jing, or that Xinyue deliberately chose to attack Zhao Sishan on the day she entered the palace, and even made Concubine Jing "unwell" with great fanfare. The answer was just to let her watch, so I was in a hurry.

   It's not that he thinks highly of himself, it's just that he knows that he is too small to be worth mentioning in the eyes of those people. In order to make her anxious and hurt Concubine Jing's "golden and precious body", those people can't do it, and there must be some other purpose for this move.

  So after talking with the empress, Wen Mingtang left the empress' bedroom. She didn't go far, after leaving the Queen's bedroom, she sat down in the stone pavilion under the corridor dozens of steps away from the front of the bedroom.

This location is not close, and the guards in front of the queen's bedroom couldn't see the expression on Wen Mingtang's face clearly, nor could they hear what she was about to say; Come here.

   After waiting for less than half an hour, a voice came from behind him.

   "You really understand what I mean." The tone is gentle, and the voice is full of gracefulness and softness unique to Jiangnan women, "Come out and wait for me."

  Before Wen Mingtang turned his head completely, he called out the person's name: "Xinyue." Following this voice, a court lady in a light blue palace shirt appeared in Wen Mingtang's sight.

  Three huge pearl hairpins were inserted on top of the hairpin that used to have only one humble wooden hairpin. You can tell from the color and luster that it was a gift from Concubine Jing.

The standing maid heard her voice, pursed her lips and smiled, and raised her head. Following this movement of raising her head, the pearls on her earlobes swayed slightly, which made her even more indescribably graceful. same quiet.

  From the outside, this is really an extremely gentle woman. Coupled with the voice with a little bit of Wu Nong's soft language, it is really hard to think that she will poison people.

   Xinyue smiled, took two steps forward, walked to the seat opposite her in the stone pavilion and sat down, then smiled and said, "Miss Wen."

Wen Mingtang's eyes flickered slightly at this Miss Wen, and after a faint sigh, he said, "I was also stupid at that time. Zhao Sishan and the others called me Mingtang, and they called me Mingtang because of me. Be good, you call me Miss Wen, obviously you are not close to me because of me, but because of the surname 'Wen'."

Hearing this, Xinyue sneered slightly, nodded with a smile, "That's right." After a pause, she continued, "I always thought you were stupid, but seeing you taking the initiative to wait for me here today, I realized that you were stupid before. It doesn't mean you're stupid now. Man, things will change. You are Wen Xuance's daughter, so you're not too stupid."

  People really do change. Wen Mingtang ignored the other words, just repeated the meaning of this sentence, and suddenly felt that this moment was a little funny.

  Because she had trusted her in the palace before, so in Xinyue's eyes is this stupid?

Wen Mingtang drooped his eyelids, hiding the emotions in his eyes, and only after a long pause, he looked up at Xinyue, and said slowly: "My mother spent her childhood in the south of the Yangtze River, and she didn't return to Beijing until she was ten years old. So I can speak Wu Nong's soft language fluently. After returning to Beijing, although I learned Mandarin, I still have some accents..."

  When Wen Mingtang first spoke, Xinyue didn't react much, until the words "speaking with some accent" came out, Xinyue was taken aback, and her eyes changed slightly.

  Wen Mingtang's eyes fell on the slightly dangling pearls on her earlobe, and he paused for a while, and then said: "Among the pearl and hairpin jewelry, she only loves pearls, she thinks they are pure and elegant, quite beautiful."

  Hearing this, Xinyue's face suddenly changed.

Only then did Wen Mingtang lower his eyes, and smiled: "You came here suddenly, and your acting skills are not very good. It's just that your demeanor really resembles my mother. I miss my mother. People who resemble my mother are always somewhat different, so I thought Try to trust you once."

  Xinyue's face turned pale.

  Looking at Xinyue's pale face, Wen Mingtang sighed quietly, and said again: "I was also stupid at that time, the deceased is already dead, and my mother is already dead, so why find a substitute to think about?"

  She noticed that when she mentioned the word "substitute", Xinyue subconsciously bit her lower lip.

  Wen Mingtang touched his face: Needless to say what he looks like, he is the most stupid. Although it was born by his mother, it is probably because of Wen Xuance's blood. Although he can see some of his mother's facial features from the sporadic facial features, his own face looks the same as that of his mother's. It doesn't feel the same.

  Mother is a beauty, and a gentle, soft, and timid beauty. When viewed from a distance, she looks a bit like a weak willow supporting the wind. If this kind of beauty meets someone who is sympathetic to her beauty, she thinks her life will not be too bad in the future. It's a pity that she just fell in love with Wen Xuance, who is incomprehensible and full of thoughts about governing the country and worrying about the people.

   Perhaps there is a bit of Wen Xuance's shadow in his eyebrows, but Wen Mingtang doesn't have such a gesture.

   It is Xinyue in front of me, although her facial features are far inferior to her mother's, there is quite a shadow of her in her posture.

  Wen Mingtang just said the truth. It was indeed because of her mother-like posture that she treated her differently. But when he said this at this time, it was more or less tentative.

Xinyue could not kill her with poison. If it was just an ordinary chess piece, it would be useless, but not only was she not silenced, but she was able to turn around... Wen Mingtang felt that this chess piece should have something special, so I just saw her style. The behavior that comes from her money is more like her mother's behavior than when she was in the palace a year ago.

   It's ridiculous to say, if you can see it from time to time in the palace, you may not be able to see the difference at a glance. But right now, it was this year's absence that made her feel the difference at a glance. What's more, this gesture is imitating no one else, but her mother.

  That's why, when Xinyue came to her, she tried it out. Looking at her face, the result of this test... was exactly what Wen Mingtang had guessed, but it made Wen Mingtang feel a little bit embarrassed.

  Seeing Xinyue's dazed look, Wen Mingtang rolled his eyes, and was about to open his mouth to test things out, but at this moment, a gust of wind blew, and a smell of medicine from Xinyue's body rushed into Wen Mingtang's nose. Wen Mingtang's face changed slightly, and the words he was about to speak were immediately retracted. She just lowered her eyes, wiped her eyes vigorously with her sleeve, and when she raised her head again, she asked Xinyue with red eyes: "You don't like me, so why make things difficult for Zhao Sishan? Do you remember that when you were framed by someone, you were hungry and had abdominal pain?" When I couldn't bear it, it was Zhao Sishan who secretly turned on the stove at night and cooked a bowl of noodles for you..."

Xinyue, who was feeling extremely irritable at the moment, was even more impatient when she heard what Old En said again. Before Wen Mingtang finished her "long-windedness", she interrupted her words unceremoniously: "Okay! You still take me seriously!" I really need your bowl of noodles and a piece of sweet potato? If it wasn't for getting close to you back then, I wouldn't have been framed at all!"

   Before Wen Mingtang could speak again, Xinyue said, "This matter really has nothing to do with Zhao Sishan. If you allow me one thing, I will let her leave the palace."
