"Miss Dong, Xie Lingxi is in love with Jiang Rong. According to my rigorous analysis, he should like talented women. When Jiang Rong was in the boudoir, apart from some talents and reputation, there was nothing else worthy of praise." The scribe looked at Dong Xiqin, Praising:
"And you are more talented than her. I think as long as you show it a little bit, you will be able to win Xie Lingxi's heart!"
Dong Xiqin looked down on Xie Lingxi from the bottom of his heart, "He is a playboy who has no knowledge and skills, but he likes talented women?"
"As the saying goes, the more people lack something, the more they want it. Xie Lingxi himself has no talent, so it makes sense that he secretly admires those talented people." The scribe said, stroking his beard.
Dong Xiqin was dubious, "Then let's give it a try. Today I took the initiative to ask for a meeting. If he is interested in me, he will definitely not miss this opportunity."
As soon as he finished speaking, the maid came to report, "The Prince of the North has invited me."
Dong Xiqin's eyes widened in surprise. He... really prefers talented women?
Dong Xiqin's mind suddenly became alive.
Although she was leaning towards Prince Duan in her heart, it was obvious that her hope of becoming Princess Duan was slim.
In comparison, Xie Lingxi, a dandy, only married according to his own preferences. He could even like the orphan girl of the uncle's house whose parents had died. The daughter of his own noble Yongning Houfu was much more noble than Jiang Rong.
Dong Xiqin suddenly felt that the position of Princess Bei had great potential!
Dong Xiqin followed the maid into the camp.
The entire huge brocade embroidered carpet, the Ru kiln celadon placed beside it, the Sichuan embroidered jade screen, and the throne inlaid with gold and jade are all exquisite and luxurious.
It's just a temporary tent set up for a hunting trip, but it's also like a palace.
Dong Xiqin secretly smacked his tongue.
The reputation of the North Prince's Palace for its unparalleled wealth was truly well-deserved, and I couldn't help but feel a little more satisfied with the position of Princess North.
Look at the handsome young master on the throne again.
Dressed in gorgeous clothes, her appearance is unparalleled.
Although he is a loser, he is a bit more handsome than King Duan.
"Miss Dong, I wonder if you have something important to ask for?" Xiao Nanxing asked at the side.
Dong Xiqin looked away from Xie Lingxi. She noticed an exquisite cage on the table with a snow-colored cat in it.
The cat has two eyes, one amber and one sky blue, very beautiful.
Dong Xiqin fell in love immediately.
She expected that the cats that Xie Lingxi could keep by her side must be rare species. If you take her to a banquet, you will definitely be envied.
At the last poetry meeting, the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo brought a rare colorful bird, which attracted everyone's attention and made her jealous for a long time.
"Your Majesty, this raccoon slave is really beautiful. It is very similar to the one that Xiqin raised when he was young. It's a pity that it got lost..." Dong Xiqin sighed quietly.
Xie Lingxi's face was expressionless.
Xiao Nanxing looked confused.
Seeing the two unresponsive principals and ministers, Dong Xiqin thought to herself that this dude had no brains, so he didn't bring a follower with brains!
Neither of you understand such an obvious hint?
never mind.
She couldn't have too high expectations for the dude's brain, so Dong Xiqin simply said it more clearly:
"Xiqin is really hurt to see that it is injured. If the prince doesn't mind, why not let Xiqin take it back and take care of it for a while, cure it and then return it to the prince."
Xiao Nanxing finally understood.
Do you like my eldest son’s cat?
But why do you ask someone for a cat when they first meet? ?
Xie Lingxi's eyes fell on her face and she said coldly: "Mind."
Dong Xiqin's smile froze on his face.
"Miss Dong, this cat belongs to the eldest son of my family and is going to be given to the eldest concubine. If Miss Dong likes it, you should buy one." Xiao Nanxing found it incredible and explained.
Dong Xiqin reacted. Is this... for Jiang Rong?
Xie Lingxi is indeed in love with Jiang Rong as rumored.
But as long as he uses a little bit of tricks, this mere dandy will definitely be able to fall in love with someone else...
Dong Xiqin immediately calmed down her emotions and said with a smile:
"Xiqin heard that the prince has recently spent a lot of money to collect antique calligraphy and paintings. He must be a person who loves painting. Coincidentally, Xiqin also likes calligraphy and painting. He recently copied the peony paintings of the former painting saint Yan, and asked the prince to taste them!"
As he spoke, the accompanying maid unfolded a picture of peonies.
Dong Xiqin had already discovered that the Beiwang Mansion had been collecting ancient paintings by Yan Hua Sheng recently, and speculated that Yan Hua Sheng was a painter that Xie Lingxi liked very much.
So she decided to copy the paintings of Yan Hua and follow his fancy.
Presumably, Xie Lingxi will become her confidant!
Dong Xiqin glanced at the white cat again, feeling confident. She must take down Xie Lingxi today and take the cat back!
"When appreciating calligraphy and painting, why don't you look for me, Miss Dong..." A clear female voice came from behind.
Dong Xiqin looked back...
The maid opened the curtain...
A young woman in a red dress walked in.
The woman was born with fairy-like beauty, picturesque features, dignified manner, bright and moving.
Dong Xiqin had some guilty conscience and seduced the other man's husband, but was knocked into a deadlock...
Jiang Rong stared at her with a very cold smile.
This woman was one of the culprits who killed Xie Ruojiao in her previous life!
At this time, she and Xie Ruojiao had not yet crossed paths.
Why did she suddenly come to Xie Lingxi?
Jiang Rong thought for a moment, and his eyes became colder.
Let a dandy appreciate the paintings, the intention is very obvious!
She made it clear that she wanted to see her husband's jokes.
Looking back, I don’t know how many unbearable remarks she had to make about her husband at the banquet.
In order to undermine the prestige of Beiwang Palace, the Yongning Hou Mansion is really underhanded!
The Western General Gate and the Northern Prince's Mansion have always been at odds due to the dispute between the old and the new.
Jiang Rong figured out the key and consciously understood Dong Xiqin's intention. Naturally, he couldn't let her succeed. He took a step forward and blocked Xie Lingxi's way:
"This peony painting is exquisitely crafted, and is very similar to the one copied. However, Yan Huasheng's painting style is wind and thunder, and it is done in one go, elegant and casual, and full of spiritual charm. Miss Dong pursues similar shapes and is elegant in her writing, which slightly lacks a bit of charm."
Dong Xiqin's face turned slightly green.
What she said was very level and pointed out her shortcomings.
This Jiang Rong actually knows a lot about painting?
"Miss Dong, if you want to appreciate calligraphy and painting with someone, you should come to me. My husband has many things to do and has no time." Jiang Rong said with a smile.
Dong Xiqin couldn't do anything else in front of her, so he had to look for another opportunity and said with a smile:
"I will definitely look for the imperial concubine to appreciate the paintings another day. I'm sorry to bother you today, so I'll take my leave now."
Dong Xiqin left with an awkward smile.
After she leaves.
Xiao Nanxing looked puzzled: "What on earth is she here to do today?"
"Of course we are here to cause trouble!" Jiang Rong's face was full of hostility:
"Discussing paintings with my husband, isn't it clear that I want to see my husband's jokes?"
Xiao Nanxing suddenly realized, "The Crown Princess is wise! This Yongning Houfu is really a villain! The behavior of a villain!"
Although the young master of his family is actually both civil and military, he appears to be a playboy.
Let the dandy appreciate the painting? The intentions are vicious!
"Don't let people like this in again!" Jiang Rong said.
Xiao Nanxing was convinced, "That's what you said."
Xie Lingxi: I vaguely feel that something is wrong, but it seems to make sense?
