"Then I'll wait for you!" Seeing Wei Yuejiao behaved like this, Wei Yuewu also stood at the door and said noncommittally.
"You go over and pick plum blossoms first. When I come, we can make dew directly. That can save a lot of time." Seeing that Wei Yuewu was actually not leaving, Wei Yuejiao was anxious and hurriedly said.
"In any case, we are not in such a hurry." At this time, Wei Yuewu was very calm.
"The kitchen is in a hurry. Sixth Younger Sister, go ahead. I'll be right there. It won't take me too much time." Wei Yuejiao did not expect Wei Yuewu to be neither anxious nor worried, so she could only use other excuses to urge her for a moment.
Wei Yuewu saw a trace of anxiety in Wei Yuejiao's eyes and she raised her eyebrows. "Third Elder Sister, you are so anxious to let me go first. Is there anything bad waiting for me over there?"
Wei Yuejiao was shocked and her expression changed slightly. However, seeing the f
Wei Yuewu was already dancing on the stage. When she was at her maternal grandparents' house, she had always been quiet. Her granny was afraid that she would get sick, so she had asked someone to teach her how to dance. She learned this popular Seven Spin Dance just before she entered the capital. The female teacher who taught her was once a dancer in the imperial palace.She moved her dancing steps gracefully. Her soft and flexible lower waist was wrapped up in a beautiful belt. Her peerless appearance revealed a mysterious sense of beauty under the veil. She was extremely charming. Everyone's gaze was attracted to her.While she danced, Wei Yuewu observed the scene below. From her position, she actually had the best view of the audience and people below the stage.She saw Lady Zhang was called to one side by an old maidservant and then hurriedly left. She also saw Wei Fengyao, wife of the Heir-apparent of Prince Nan'an, sat by the Madam Dowag
By those words, Wei Fengyao was disparaging her as a clown or a dancing girl."Eldest Sister, today is Second Uncle's birthday. Originally, guests were also relatives of our mansion. It's rare for grandmother to be here as well. Therefore, I put on a colorful dancing dress to amuse grandmother and make her happy. But I didn't know why I was said to hang out with a lad servant and go to a desolate courtyard with him." Wei Yuewu said generously.Her clear eyes shone brightly. They were extremely attractive, but they also looked very innocent."Did you mistake someone else for the Sixth Young Lady?" Jin Ling exerted some strength and fiercely pinched the maid's wrist.The maid was frightened out of her wits by Wei Yuewu's sudden appearance. Feeling the sharp pain in her wrist, she subconsciously replied, "Yes… I made a mistake. That person looked kind of like the Sixth Young Lady.""Where's Third Elder Sister?" Wei Qiuju
There was a scene that seemed to be very clear. In that scene, a girl who looked delicate and gentle was holding her hand and playing with her by the water. Sunlight shone on her face, which had an unhealthy green and pale color.But her smile was sweet and happy.That girl was the little elder sister that she had always remembered. Her memory suddenly jumped to that terrifying time. That weak girl gulped and spat out large mouthfuls of blood. She lowered her head powerlessly, but she still smiled warmly at her.Wei Yuewu felt an inexplicable pain in her heart. The pain was so strong that she involuntarily covered her chest with one of her hands."Miss, what's wrong with you?" Jin Ling came in with a cup of tea in her hands. She saw Wei Yuewu clutching her chest with one hand and bending over the table. She hurriedly put the teacup aside and came over to help her up.Wei Yuewu calmed down, and the pain receded like tid
The uninvited guest was Yan Huaijing, heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State.It was at the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. However, this heir-apparent walked around freely like in his own courtyard, and the Fourth Prince beside him was smiling bitterly.They were in the inner courtyard now. As two grown male outsiders, although they had only eunuchs with them, it still was inappropriate for them to appear here."This courtyard of the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang is quite well built. Its style is actually different from ordinary courtyards. I wonder who built it? However, this shouldn't be the mansion of Marquis Hua Yang of the past, right?" Yan Huaijing asked leisurely as he walked."Forty years ago, there was a fire in the original mansion of Marquis Hua Yang. His Royal Grandfather gave another mansion to the old Marquis Hua Yang." The Fourth Prince thought for a moment and said."The previous emperor actually favored an
The Fourth Prince subconsciously stretched out his hands and stared at the young girl in his arms with a dumbfounded expression."You… who are you? You actually dare to intrude into the inner courtyard!" Wei Yuejiao pushed away the man in front of her in panic and scolded him angrily.How could she not be angry? Obviously, her target was the elegant and charming Heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State. Why did he change to the man in front of her? Even though this man looked not bad and seemed to be from either a wealthy or aristocratic family, how could he compare to the Heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State?Previously, when she was in the crowd, her attention was attracted by the charm of this heir-apparent of Yan with just a single glance. Now, her own affairs had been basically settled. When she heard that Yan Huaijing was in the backyard, she hurried over.How could she be kind to the Fourth Prince in front of her who had mad
"Have the Heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State and the Fourth Prince passed by?""Sixth Young Lady, I saw the Heir-apparent of the Duke of Yan State and the Fourth Prince. I wanted to stop them, but they punished me and ordered me to kneel here. It was not that I did not stop them, but I wasn't able to stop them."The old maidservant's face was filled with grievance."Where did they go?" Wei Yuewu frowned and asked in displeasure."They headed towards that direction to the outer courtyard. Sixth Young Lady, if you want to find them, just go that way." The old maidservant hurriedly stretched out her hand and pointed in the direction of the outer courtyard."Get up. Watch the door carefully in the future. Even if the prince comes over, you should know better than act rashly. Remember to report to the Madam Dowager if anything happens." Wei Yuewu nodded and said softly to the old maidservant.Seeing that We
Wei Yuewu's watery eyes narrowed as she calmed herself down. She raised her head and saw Yan Huaijing floating into the window. So she relaxed for a moment and supported the bookshelf with her hand to collect herself."You… why are you here?" Wei Yuewu lowered her voice and said angrily. She was really scared out of her wits a moment ago.The old maidservant's low voice still came from outside, and Jin Ling interrupted her from time to time, which however made the old maidservant feel even more aggrieved and pour out her troubles."If you can come, why can't I?!" Yan Huaijing raised his handsome eyebrows and walked over to get the box from above for Wei Yuewu. He elegantly handed it over, just like how those young masters of aristocratic families handed a gift to the young ladies whom they took a fancy to.Of course, Wei Yuewu didn't dare to think about this. Others may not know the true face of this heir-apparent, how could she no
There were many speculations in Wei Fengyao's heart, but she didn't expect to see such a scene. For a moment, she froze at the door in horror.Jin Ling came over and stuck her head in. Then, she shouted in shock, "Miss!"Wei Yuewu lay in a spacious armchair in the study. She did not exhibit any sign of life. The book she had been reading fell to the ground, and there was a dagger stuck on the desk, shining with cold light. There was nothing else, but upon seeing this scene, anyone would immediately know what had happened.At this time, the old maidservant who guarded the door with Jin Ling also entered the study and cast a look out of curiosity. She immediately ran out as she shouted in a shrill voice, "Help! The Sixth Young Lady has been assassinated, she has been killed!"Because of fear, the old maidservant's voice was particularly sharp and hoarse, and it shocked the servants who were passing by the courtyard entrance.
