Chapter 106 Confession
Li Lingjuan happily took the cloth and needle and thread, returned to her room, and began to make her purse seriously.
Her family background is average, and she usually does needlework with her mother, Li Cui, to support the family.
She used soft rags to skillfully piece together a delicate little purse, with a bright little flower embroidered on it.
She showed the purse to Mrs. Li Cui, "Auntie, do you think the purse I made is beautiful?"
Mrs. Li Cui took the purse and looked at it carefully. , with a satisfied smile on his face, "Beautiful, so beautiful! My girl is very clever and the purses she makes are beautiful."
"I'll give them to Brother Zhao." Li Lingjuan said. About to go out.
Ms. Li Cui grabbed her and said, "It's getting dark soon. Let's go back tomorrow."
"Why is it getting dark already?" Li Lingyan pouted, I have to wait another night to see Brother Zhao.
The next day, she went to Zhao's house happily with her purse, but Zhao Yin was next door. What she saw was Zhao Wangshu, "You are so beautiful, like a fairy."
Zhao Wangshu smiled, "Thank you for the compliment. I wonder if Miss Li is here. What's the matter?"
"I'm here to see Brother Zhao and Young Master." Li Lingjuan said.
Zhao Wangshu was convinced that she heard the word brother, her eyes flashed slightly, "My brother is out and not at home."
After hearing this, Li Lingjuan felt a little disappointed and drooped. He raised his head and said: "Then I'm going back."
"Miss Li, since you're here, just come in and sit down. My brother will be back soon."
/> "That's troublesome, Miss Zhao." Li Lingjuan smiled happily. .
Zhao Wangshu smiled slightly and led her into the house.
The maid brought tea, Zhao Wangshu poured a cup of tea and handed it to Li Lingxuan, "Miss Li, please have tea."
"Thank you, Miss Zhao." Li Ling Xuan took the cup and took a sip.
“Where is Miss Li from?” Zhao Wangshu took the initiative to chat with her.
"People from Caozhou, Shandong."
"Caozhou, that place is a good place, with simple folk customs and beautiful scenery." Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.
Li Lingjuan smiled and nodded, "Yes, our place is very beautiful, especially when the peonies are in full bloom, the entire Caozhou becomes colorful and beautiful."
"I really want to have the opportunity to visit Caozhou." Zhao Wangshu's eyes showed a look of yearning.
“If there is a chance,It will definitely be a feast for Miss Zhao’s eyes. "Li Lingjuan secretly thought that when she marries Zhao Yin, Zhao Wangshu will be her sister-in-law, and she can invite her sister-in-law to see peonies.
The two were chatting happily, and Zhao Yin came back. It was Zhao Wangshu who asked the maid to call him over from next door.
“Brother, Miss Li has something to ask you. "Zhao Wangshu went out, leaving two maids in the house.
Strange man and woman, for the sake of Li Lingjuan's reputation, she couldn't let them be alone.
Li Lingjuan looked Looking at Zhao Yin, eyes full of admiration, he said in a voice: "Brother Zhao. "
Zhao Yin shivered, "Li, Miss Li, what can you do? "
Li Lingxuan bit her lip, with a blush on her face, "Brother Zhao, I came here to tell you that I, I like you. "
Zhao Yin was stunned. He never expected that Li Lingxuan would suddenly express his feelings so frankly. Looking at the shy girl in front of him, he didn't know how to respond.
Li Lingjuan handed the purse to Zhao Yin, "Brother Zhao, this is the purse I made for you. I hope you like it. "
After saying that, she rushed out of the door. Zhao Yin came back to his senses and said, "Miss Li, I can't accept this purse. "
He chased him out. Zhao Wangshu, who was standing on the corridor of the west wing, looked at the two of them, one running and the other chasing, both a little dumbfounded. What is going on?
The two said What's going on? It's about to break down?
Zhao Yin rushed to catch up with Li Lingxuan in front of her discharge door, "Miss Li, please take back this purse. "
"Brother Zhao, I made this purse specially for you. "
"Miss Li, thank you for your love, but we only met once, so I can't accept your money. "Zhao Yin insisted not to take the purse.
Li Lingyan had no choice but to take back the purse and went back with tears in her eyes, but she was not someone who gave up easily.
From that day on, Li Lingjuan often came to see Zhao Yin under the guise of hanging out with Zhao Wangshu. Unfortunately, Zhao Yin had to study poetry and books, so she couldn't see him most of the time and could only chat with Zhao Wangshu.
On this day, Zhao Wangshu When I asked Xu Danyang to go out and introduced her to Yao Shanzhi, I heard the person at the table next to me say: "He had been cut thirty-six times all over his body, his tongue was cut out, and the two ounces of meat underneath were missing. The eunuch. "
"Stop talking, these words are going to reach King Kang's ears, and you won't be able to bear it. "
They kept silent. Yao Shanzhi snorted coldly, "This is his retribution. "
"Who? "Zhao Wangshu asked in confusion.
"Lin Chao. "
“I don’t know which righteous man is doing harm to the people.” Zhao Wangshu said with a smile.
That night, Lin Chao died from his injuries.
In a small courtyard of Qunfangzhai, a beautiful woman was hiding under the quilt, laughing silently, laughing until tears came out, "This beast can finally no longer harm people."
After hearing the news, Yun Hao drank all the tea in the cup and said, "It's better to die."
Zhao Wangshu took this matter as gossip. Little did she know that she was almost kidnapped by people sent by Lin Chao.
However, Lin Chao's death made King Kang angry. He asked the emperor to investigate the matter thoroughly. For a while, the atmosphere in the capital became tense.
What relieved this tense atmosphere was the great victory at the border and the beginning of spring.
On the eighth day of February, the sun shone brightly in the capital, and many people who participated in the examination said: "This is a good sign."
There was a sea of people outside Gongyuan. There were nearly 5,000 people who took part in the exams. According to the practice of this dynasty, only more than 300 people were selected in the spring.
Looking at so many exams, Zhao Cheng felt that he was overachieving in this subject, so he patted Zhao Yin on the shoulder and said, “Son, it’s up to you.”
Same with his son He was already ashamed of himself as a father. If he passed the subject one grade later than his son, he would really lose face.
This Spring Festival was his first time to take the test, and it was also his last time.
"Don't put pressure on my dear grandson." Mrs. Zhao Cui pushed Zhao Cheng away and said to Zhao Yin: "Brother Yin, don't be nervous, just try your best."
< br />"Grandma, I understand." Zhao Yin smiled.
The entrance inspection for the general examination is more stringent than that for the provincial examination.
Watching the father and son enter the Gongyuan, Mrs. Zhao Cui took her daughter-in-law and granddaughter and prepared to go back. When she squeezed out of the crowd, she met Li Lingjuan and her mother Li Cui.
“Xiao Yue’er.” Li Lingjuan called.
“Lingjue.” Zhao Wangshu is half a year older than Li Lingjuan, but Li Lingjuan has always refused to call her sister.
Zhao Wangshu knew what Li Lingjuan meant. She wanted to marry her eldest brother and be her sister-in-law, but of course she couldn't call her sister.
Li Lingjuan is a warm and cheerful girl. She loves straightforwardly and boldly. Zhao Wangshu quite likes her.
The adults went back first. Zhao Wangshu took Li Lingjuan to go shopping. The two of them wandered around the busy market, looking at this and playing with that.
Zhao Wangshu was attracted by a stall selling jewelry. She took Li Lingjuan's hand and walked over. Pick up a bell hairpin from the stall, gently inserted into Li Lingjun's black hair.
“Does it look good?” Li Lingxiao asked with a smile.
“It’s so beautiful.” Zhao Wangshu praised.
Li Lingjuan shook her head, and the bell made a crisp sound. Seeing her happy look, Zhao Wangshu bought a hairpin and gave it to her.
"Give it to me?" Li Lingjuan hugged Zhao Wangshu, "Xiaoyue'er, you are so kind."
