Chapter 205: the weather gets weird

 “What’s going on?”

"The first day of November is coming. Concubine Rong will choose a young child to help her dry scriptures at this time of year. This is a good thing. She will most likely come to you."

 When Mo Lingwei said this, his eyes were dark.

 He said it was a good thing, but he didn't look happy at all.

Shen Ningning was confused: "Looking for me... to help her post scriptures?"

Mo Lingwei nodded: "I have selfish motives and don't want you to go. Because I heard from my father that the person she chooses will become the companion of the Ninth Prince."

 At this point, he raised his eyebrows slightly: "Even if you want to be a companion in the palace, you should still be mine."

 He couldn't bear to let Shen Ningning go to the palace to study with him, it was so boring.

 There are many and complicated rules in the palace.

What's more, the Ninth Prince? Don't even think about it.

 However, out of respect, he coughed lightly and stared at Shen Ningning's expression.

 “Of course, if you are willing to help, I won’t be angry.”

  After all, he could see that Shen Ningning had a natural affection for Concubine Rong.

 Especially, there is something like the Xie family in front of us.

Unexpectedly, Shen Ningning shook her head resolutely.

“I’m not going. I just calculated that on the first day of November, I’m going to study at the Chinese Academy of Chinese Studies!”

Moreover, she has no interest in helping to post scriptures.

 Ever since she knew that she was not Xie Suzhi's real daughter, she had no intention of getting close to Concubine Rong.

 The little one feels he needs a little self-awareness.

Hearing this, a warm smile suddenly appeared on Mo Lingwei's thin lips, and he pursed his lips.

He pretended to be calm and said: "Well, with your words, I can go on a long journey with peace of mind."

Grandma Qin took a chopstick of mutton to Mo Lingwei and Shen Ningning at the right time.

She said with a smile: "You are just talking and you haven't eaten much yet. Come on, eat more. There is still more."

 It is exactly what Mo Lingwei said.

 The next day, Concubine Rong's courtiers paid a visit to Xie Mansion.

Shen Ningning happened to go to class and was not at home.

 Xie Suzhi received the people from Concubine Rong's palace.

The eldest aunt saluted, treated her respectfully, and got straight to the point.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, the Queen has a deep affection for Princess Funing. This time of sharing the scriptures is a great blessing, so the Queen wants to invite the Princess to the palace to help."

"Look, if it's convenient, can I wait here for the princess to return to the house and inform her of the matter?"

Xie Suzhi smiled lightly: "You don't need to ask Ning Ning about this matter, the truth can make the decision."

"Please go back and tell me that I don't agree with Ning Ning to help. The child is too young and is not suitable to be a blessed boy."

"What's more, she has just recognized her family with our Xie family, and there are still many things she is not comfortable with. If she enters the palace rashly, no matter what mistakes she makes, it will be torture for the child."

“However, I can recommend you that my second brother’s son Yuanjiu, who is well-behaved and well-educated, is the best candidate to share the scriptures.”

Auntie looked a little embarrassed, but she kept smiling and said, "This... I have to go back and ask your Majesty what she wants."

Xie Suzhi nodded: "Then I won't send you the original photo."

 This is a clear and obvious way of expelling guests.

The eldest aunt took the palace maid and walked to the corner with a dull expression. Suddenly, she heard two maids from the Xie Mansion chatting behind the wall.

“The second lady went to see the Goddess the day before yesterday. They all said that there was an unlucky person in our house.”

"Really? No wonder the fourth lady was so scared that she had nightmares."

 The eldest aunt's eyes changed, and she left even faster.

 After returning to the palace, she told Concubine Rong everything in detail.

At that time, Concubine Rong was standing under the window, bathing in the autumn sun, copying the Buddha statues.

Hearing that Xie Su refused, she smiled and put down her pen: "It's expected."

“The Prime Minister is still unwilling to forgive me, nor the Qi family.”

The eldest girl lowered her head and said, "Then, madam, do we really want to ask Miss Xie to come and help you with your prayers?"

You must know that Concubine Rong initially fell in love with Princess Funing.

This is a lucky girl who can attract heavy rains, resolve droughts, and single-handedly straighten the four seasons of Cangyun Kingdom.

Then what does Xie Yuanjiu mean? Just an ordinary lady. Unexpectedly, Concubine Rong's voice was light and gentle: "Then thank Miss Fourth, it doesn't matter, they are all good children."

 In the evening, the palace sent someone to deliver the news to Xie's Mansion.

Concubine Rong invited Miss Xie Xie Yuanjiu to come to the palace tomorrow at midnight to help her pray for God's blessing.

 Mrs. Xie Er was extremely happy.

She kept holding Xie Zhanjiu's hand and whispered: "Just be happy, my mother will give you the chance!"

Mrs. Xie Er told Xie Yuanjiu that she had arranged for two maids to talk to her eldest aunt.

Xie Yuanjiu was surprised: "Mother, why are you like this again!"

He still refuses to calm down. Caiying’s incident has just happened. What if he is discovered by his uncle again?

Mrs. Xie Er smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? If mother hadn't helped you plan and made Concubine Rong mistakenly think that Shen Ningning was in trouble, you wouldn't have been able to seize this opportunity."

“You, just behave well. I have heard that if you do this well, you will become the Ninth Prince’s companion, so be prepared.”

Xie Zhanjiu felt at peace after hearing this.

 No matter what others think, she will seize the opportunity to be a companion reader this time.

 Prove to her uncle that she is no worse than Shen Ningning.

  One night passed, and Xie Yuanjiu followed the palace carriage into the palace early in the morning.

 She didn’t dare to raise her head along the way, let alone violate the rules at all.

 After arriving at Concubine Rong’s palace, she spoke a few words to Concubine Rong, who treated her kindly. Xie Yuanjiu felt even more satisfied.

 Whenever she raised her head while walking, she felt a bit proud.

 Luckily, she was the one who got this opportunity to have her menstruation.

A long table was set up in the courtyard, and the eldest aunt and two palace ladies helped to take out all the scriptures copied by Concubine Rong to dry.

"Miss Xie Si, please work harder and keep an eye on it. After drying it today, the empress will entrust someone to send it to the national temple tomorrow."

Xie Yuanjiu nodded: "Auntie, please rest assured. I understand that the scriptures are related to the fortune of the Cangyun Kingdom, and I will take good care of it."

 Then, she carefully unfolded the scriptures one by one and laid them out under the sun.

 Autumn is here, the sun is warm, and the characters on the scriptures are clear and graceful, illuminated by the light.

The eldest aunt looked at it for a while and felt that there was no problem, so she went back to the palace to serve Concubine Rong.

Xie Yuanjiu has always been on guard. When she sees any bugs coming, she will immediately wave them away.

Just like that, it suddenly felt like the sky was getting darker.

Xie Yuanjiu raised her head and looked at the thick clouds that were gradually rolling in: "Is it going to rain?"

The autumn wind blew swayingly, and she hesitated for a moment, and suddenly a drop of water fell on her face.

Xie Yuanjiu was stunned.

In a flash, she suddenly reacted and shouted: "It's raining!"

The big raindrops turned into a thunderous rainstorm in an instant.

Xie Yuanjiu hurriedly went to the **** at the door and said, "Bring me an umbrella quickly. It's raining. I'm going to carry the books back."

 Auntie heard the sound of rain and came over quickly.

Seeing the heavy rain soaking the scriptures, she suddenly turned pale and shouted desperately: "It's this time, why are you holding an umbrella? Bring the scriptures in quickly!"

Xie Yuanjiu was pushed hard. She could only grit her teeth and go to the rain to collect the scriptures with her aunt and the palace maid.

Just as she took a bunch of scriptures and wanted to run back into the hall, she suddenly tripped and fell down hard.

The skin on her palms was suddenly scratched, but when she raised her head, the palace maids were busy rescuing the scriptures, and no one came to help her.

at the same time.

The Huangzi class had just ended, and Shen Ningning was standing in the corridor.

 Everyone was a little excited when they saw the sudden heavy rain.

 Shen Ningning felt puzzled.

 She hugged her shoulders and rubbed them: "Why do you feel so cold..."

A classmate next to me laughed and said, “It’s late autumn, so of course it’s cold when it rains!”

 Shen Ningning pouted and stretched out her little hand to catch the rain.

Sudden!

She saw a crystal snowflake falling on her palm along with the pouring rain.

Snow…?
