MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 7
Chapter 7
Wen Ning forced herself to get rid of the fear in her bones. Maybe it was just a homonym, or maybe it was just the same name. In her last life, she clearly reunited with Pei You in early autumn.
But she soon saw a man standing at the table next to Wen Lan in the corner of the dining hall. Although he was dressed in common clothes, his appearance was out of this world. Compared with Wen Lan's gentleness, his facial features were deeper, and his eyes were colder and sharper, as if he was born to look down on a superior person, and his ordinary clothes were incompatible with him.
Wen Ning's mind was suddenly out of control, and he slid through many pictures.
When we met again for the first time, he was smiling and bowed elegantly: "It was originally Wen's A Ning, who has long admired her name."
When Liang was kicked out of Shangshu Mansion, he frowned slightly and comforted softly: "The army of the Southern Expedition did not find Sheng Sheng's body, and things may turn around. If my lady doesn't dislike it, there is a house in the suburbs of Xiajing where you can stay temporarily." , if there is news of promotion, it will be convenient for me to convey it to you in time."
Shen Jin's ashes were delivered, and when she asked to resign and leave, he slowly put down the cup in his hand, and said with a slow smile, "Ah Ning, you think you can leave as soon as you want to enter this house Is it?"
Until later, she tried her best to escape, but was caught back again and again. He also finally took off his disguise, revealing his sinister nature, and pressed her between the beds and asked her again and again: "Ah Ning, are you still running away?"
Ah Ning, are you still running away?
Wen Ning's legs froze when she was about to retreat, but she absolutely couldn't take a step forward.
Linglan looked at a young man in a daze as soon as her girl came in, and then, as if she wanted to see through him, she stared at him without blinking.
Although this young man is indeed a bit good-looking, but...
"Cough..." Linglan coughed forcefully, walked over with a smile, "Girl, let's sit over there."
Wen Ning was already sweating coldly behind her back, she was suddenly very glad that she wore makeup on her face today, otherwise her face would be pale now, with no blood left.
She smiled at Linglan, held her hand, and used her strength to walk into the dining hall.
After taking two steps, Wen Lan said, "Forgive me, I will accompany my sister-in-law here today. If you don't mind, let's have a table together?"
Wen Ning's feet went limp and she almost fell to the ground.
Her good brother, is he worried that she didn't die early enough?
Wen Lan has her own considerations.
Ever since Wen Tingchun found a husband for Wen Ning and taught her some things about etiquette, righteousness and shame, Wen Ning has been extremely respectful of etiquette and abides by the rules. She resolutely refuses to do anything that a lady can't do, no matter how coercive or tempting.
But it was such a well-behaved lady who went to divorce Shen Shangshu and his wife in person yesterday.
Although he hasn't discussed this matter with her in detail, but he is several years older than her, so how could he not understand?
This marriage was originally the regret of Mr. Shen's family. As for the reason, it is nothing more than the fact that Shen's family has been promoted step by step, while Wen's family has been gradually neglected.
Yesterday, my father rarely drank too much wine, held up his glass and said, "As long as you and Wen Qi get better, how could your sister..."
"Forget it, I'm also at fault for this matter. If I had advanced bravely back then instead of retiring to the second line, Ah Ning would not be here today."
Wen Lan naturally knew that Wen Tingchun had put off his official career to take care of his siblings. As a result, except for Wen Ning, neither he nor Wen Qi had grown up to what he expected.
But in Wen Lan's view, this matter is not that serious. Firstly, Shen Jin has been in love with Wen Ning for a long time, and there may be a turning point for this matter. Secondly, I, Dayin, have countless good men, Wen Ning is beautiful, well-behaved, virtuous and pleasant, even if the marriage with Shen Jin fails, still worry about not finding a suitable husband-in-law?
Just like the one in front of you.
The surname is Wang Mingyou, and the word is Shuzhi. His appearance and stature are not inferior to those of the young masters in Beijing, and he is talented in writing and has great ambitions. He has read a few articles by him, and he has the ambition to govern the world, and he has the talent for latitude and longitude.
The only shortcoming is that the family is slightly poor. But he also participated in Chunwei this time. If he can get a good ranking and the Wen family will support him one or two times, the future will be very promising.
Therefore, he was overjoyed to see him in the Zhaitang, and he stepped forward to say hello without hesitation.
Wen Ning happened to be here today, and taking this opportunity to let the two meet, wouldn't it be wonderful if they happened to see each other right?
But after he finished that sentence, Wang You looked cold and seemed not interested.
At this moment, Linglan exclaimed "Girl".
It turned out that Wen Ning lost his balance and almost fell.
Wang You also followed the exclamation and looked over. Seeing this, his expression changed a little.
"Then we'll bother Wen joining the army." Wang You clasped his hands.
—
Wen Ning never expected that the opportunity she deliberately created to get along with Shen Jin would turn into her encounter with Pei You.
Although she had already figured out how to deal with Pei You yesterday, she was sitting at the same table with him, facing his glances from time to time, her palms were still sweating, and she tried her best to control the trembling of her body.
As for Wang You, since he participated in the examination, many people in Beijing took the initiative to make friends and wanted to recruit him to his door.
He contrasts and rarely copes. Originally Wen Lan invited him to be at the same table, and he wanted to refuse when he opened his mouth, but when he saw Wen Ning...
He swallowed the words that came to his lips.
After a while, the round table was full of vegetarian dishes.
Wen Ning was introduced by Wen Lan, and after saying hello with a smile, she kept her head down, and when a dish was served, she pretended to be extremely hungry and ate hard.
Wang You, the more she lowered her head, the more he looked towards her, as if he wanted to take a closer look at her eyebrows and eyes.
Wen Lan and Wang You have met for the first time, knowing that he has always been aloof and does not take the initiative to flirt with others, seeing him glance at his sister from time to time...
Looking at my sister again, she was also very abnormal.
He secretly rejoiced, is it going to happen?
But he also knows that this boy and girl are just budding, so they must not make jokes casually.
So I just pretended I didn't see anything, and chatted with Wang You about unimportant things.
Wen Ning is also sensitive to Pei You's voice, he has spoken too many words in her ears, he is harsh, gentle and flattering, extremely touching...
She had tried her best to focus on eating, but she still heard his cool voice: "Miss Wen often goes out with Wen Canjun?"
