Ch 133: Seduction, Vivid And Fragrant

Snowflakes were fluttering, and the zither music was melodious. The young lady in the pink long skirt, with a faint smile on her elegant face, was intoxicated by the winter scenery. Her manner was elegant, and her slender hand was slightly raised, captivating the soul.

On the path covered with white snow, two elegant young masters walked over.

The one in front was considered handsome, but his eyes and eyebrows were slightly lifted, making people feel uncomfortable after looking at them for a while, and his expression was indeed very uncomfortable, with indignant anger between his eyebrows.

“Tell me, what is this about? To make me marry such a crazy woman, Grandmother doesn’t know what’s going on.” Thinking of marrying Ning Yuling, Heir of Prince Li Ao Xian gritted his teeth in anger. Although he was a rake, he knew that when choosing a wife, one should choose a virtuous one. How could he be happy with such a lowly woman becoming the Mistress of Prince Li’s Mansion?

And yet, the Imperial Concubine specifically asked him to come here today, saying it was to “rectify his status”. Rectify what the hell status, that lowly little bitch was almost suitable to be a concubine.

“I heard that the Second Miss of Duke’s Mansion is beautiful and moving, and she is also the direct daughter of Duke’s Mansion. What else do you have to argue about? Just marry her.” Wen Xueran turned the folding fan in his hand, smiled, and raised his face. His handsome face was more exquisite than a woman’s, with a faint smile.

With his peach blossom eyes, he looked askance at Ao Xian and advised him with ill intentions.

“Marry? That bitch, there’s no need to marry her, I’d rather advise the Third Prince to take her in, so she won’t put a green hat on me before she gets married.” Ao Xian kicked away the snow at his feet and said with gritted teeth in anger.

The fact that Ning Yuling was fond of the Third Prince was not a secret. In addition, at the time of the incident, the words she said, even though Ao Xian wasn’t intelligent, he also guessed eight or ninety percent. When he thought that Ning Yuling might have a relationship with the Third Prince in secret, he felt as sad as if he had eaten a fly.

He was the only one who flirted with other people’s women, when did his own woman get flirted with!

“Say that to the Third Prince!” Wen Xueran sneered, with a graceful appearance and a romantic charm.

He was purely dragged here by Ao Xian today. He happened to have something to do at Prince Li’s Mansion, and as soon as he arrived at the mansion gate, he was dragged by the dejected Ao Xian to Duke’s Mansion to keep him company.

Anyway, there was nothing to do, so he simply came to Duke’s Mansion!

Hearing him tell the Third Prince himself, he didn’t dare. Ao Xian was immediately disheartened and dropped his hand. But thinking about it, he was still annoyed and said with gritted teeth, “No, I must not marry that bitch, I will have Grandmother come to Duke’s Mansion to revoke the marriage.”

Ao Xian was really unwilling. No matter who he married, it would be better than marrying Ning Yuling. When he thought of her wanton behavior, he couldn’t bear it.

“The marriage of Duke’s Mansion is not so easy to revoke!” Wen Xueran smiled and tapped Ao Xian’s shoulder with the fan and joked.

“I…” A word blocked Ao Xian again, and he couldn’t say anything, his face was red and his neck was thick, but he didn’t know what to say next.

“Look, that beauty over there, I don’t know if she is the Second Miss of Duke’s Mansion? Appreciating the plum blossoms in the snow, playing the zither under the flowers, it is an elegant affair. Those who perform elegant affairs should be elegant people.” Wen Xueran pointed to the pavilion not far away, his peach blossom eyes turned, and they were lustrous.

Snowflakes fell from the sky, although not dense, but still blocked the line of sight, only to see the young lady in pink clothes playing the zither in the pavilion, that direction was facing the door of the pavilion.

Ao Xian couldn’t see clearly either, but he subconsciously felt that it was Ning Yuling, and he was overjoyed. Since she wanted to marry the Third Prince, and he didn’t want to marry her either, or they could conspire privately, and come up with a plan that would work for both sides. If she was unwilling, Grandmother would not force him either.

“Let’s go take a look.” Saying that, he was going to go forward.

“You are fiancé, meeting is no problem, I will pass.” Wen Xueran stood still, shook his head and smiled.

No matter if this person was Ning Yuling or not, he had no reason to meet her. Originally, women in the inner courtyard would avoid men who came over, but the young lady playing the zither didn’t know if it was because she played it too emotionally, that she didn’t move at all until now, and continued to play the zither deeply…

Wen Xueran wasn’t willing to get involved in this troubled waters.

“Well, you can go wander around the other places in the garden first, I’ll come find you after I finish talking.” Ao Xian only wanted to talk about the marriage with Ning Yuling at this time, and also felt that having an extra person was inconvenient, and immediately nodded.

Wen Xueran looked at the road, went to the path on the other side, walked a few steps, and looked back at the pink-clothed young lady sitting in the pavilion, who continued to play the zither leisurely and selflessly. The handsome and bewitching face had a slightly curled corner of the mouth, and a hint of eerie dark color flashed in his eyes, but immediately walked forward impassively.

He was just an outsider today, and the other things had nothing to do with him…

Ao Xian walked forward excitedly. When he was halfway there, he felt something was wrong. Although the woman opposite was half-lowering her head, he could still see her eyebrows and eyes clearly. Her eyebrows and eyes were very elegant, revealing a pitiful look, but it wasn’t Ning Yuling, so his footsteps paused slightly.

Hearing someone’s voice, Caiyun, who was standing behind Ning Lingyun, hurriedly went forward and pulled Ning Lingyun’s sleeve, pretending that she had just seen it.

Ning Lingyun then looked up, saw Ao Xian opposite, and was slightly stunned, her eyebrows furrowed, that anger!

Caiyun, this lowly girl, was saying that Heir of Prince Li was like a flower. The person in front of her was not as good as what she said. Although the young man in front of her looked pretty good, but how could he compare to the Third Prince, no matter his appearance or demeanor, he was worse than the Third Prince by not just a little bit.

But thinking that way, it was still impossible to be worse than the Marquis of Peace. She immediately put away the dissatisfaction in her heart, and a smile with a hint of shyness appeared on her face. She stood up and bowed to him.

Ao Xian sized up the woman in front of him, saw that she was tender, like a willow swaying in the wind, with a faint smile on her snow-white face, her complexion was slightly red, with a few more colors, but she was also a beauty, a beauty sweetly saluted him, his bones were first softened by three points.

He was originally a rake who was a rake in the flower bushes on normal days. This time, he was hooked by the beauty, and immediately forgot that he was here to find Ning Yuling to reason. He didn’t care about the avoidance of men and women, and he pretended to be romantic, cupped his hands and smiled and asked, “This young master appreciates plum blossoms in the snow, and I didn’t expect to meet a beauty, I don’t know who the young lady is?”

“Bold, who are you? Our young lady is the Fourth Young Lady of Duke’s Mansion, get out of the way quickly.” Caiyun also saw Ao Xian’s appearance clearly at this time, and was greatly shocked. What she had seen just now was clearly not the one in front of her, how did she suddenly become so inconspicuous? She thought it was someone else, and hurriedly rushed to Ning Lingyun, and scolded.

“The Fourth Young Lady of Duke’s Mansion?” Ao Xian didn’t get angry because Caiyun rushed out, but instead felt that this young lady in front of him was more dignified than Ning Yuling, “This young master is the Heir of Prince Li.”

“You are the Heir of Prince Li?” Caiyun’s eyes widened, and wanted to say something else, but was glared at by Ning Lingyun, and was so scared that she immediately stopped talking.

“Why, do you think this young master is impersonating?” Ao Xian asked strangely.

“Young Master, the maidservant is rude, and has never seen the world. She disturbed Young Master.” Ning Lingyun had sorted out her thoughts at this time, no matter who Caiyun had seen before, the person in front of her should be the Heir of Prince Li.

“It’s no problem. This young master is tired from walking. I don’t know if I can rest in the Fourth Young Lady’s pavilion?” Ao Xian saw the beauty at this time, and couldn’t move his feet, and asked with a smiley face. As for Ning Yuling, he had long been thrown to the sky.

At this time, he was wholeheartedly trying to flirt with Ning Lingyun, and didn’t even think that Ning Lingyun was his little sister-in-law.

“If Young Master doesn’t mind, please come in and sit down.” Ning Lingyun, that side, it came just right, immediately turned sideways and let out the door of the pavilion, blushing shyly.

“Thank you, Fourth Young Lady.” He felt that the beauty’s affectionate gaze was fond of him, which could very much satisfy his self-esteem. Ao Xian walked in with complacency, and sat down on the only chair inside.

This chair was next to the seat where Ning Lingyun was playing the zither.

“The Fourth Young Lady plays the zither very well, I wonder if she can play another song for this young master to hear?” Ao Xian also discovered this, and proposed with a smile.

“I’m afraid it will dirty Young Master’s ears.” Ning Lingyun politely said shyly.

“The Fourth Young Lady plays very well, much better than what this young master heard outside, it is rare to hear such good zither music today, and I hope the Fourth Young Lady will not be stingy.”

Ao Xian usually frequented brothels and flower bushes, and heard the most was the alluring songs of the prostitutes, this time, hearing Ning Lingyun play, it had a special charm.

“Young Master is too polite.” Having said that, Ning Lingyun also felt that it was almost done, and immediately walked over and sat down on the stool, placed both hands on the zither, and began to play with a red face. Ao Xian seemed to lean closer to Ning Lingyun to hear more clearly, and smelled the faint fragrance on the beauty’s body, and immediately felt it was enchanting.

And Ning Lingyun just glanced at him sweetly, her face blushed, but she didn’t say anything. Under this circumstance, Ao Xian, this rake in the flowers, of course, understood, and pretended not to care and leaned close to him without moving.

Looking from afar, one was playing the zither, and the other was leaning closely together. Those who didn’t know thought they were a couple.

Ning Zuan, who had finished dealing with things in front and came to find Ao Xian and Wen Xueran, saw this scene and almost vomited blood in anger.

Although Ao Xian was a playboy, but Ning Lingyun, a young lady in the inner chamber, was so shameless to be with an unrelated male, playing the zither closely together, and this person was also her future husband’s brother, if people saw it, what an embarrassing thing that would be.

“Go, call the Heir of Prince Li over, and just let me wait for him in the study.” Ning Zuan waved his wide sleeves in anger, and while walking out, he instructed the boy servant.

“Yes.” The boy servant saw that Ning Zuan’s complexion was not good, and knew that the Duke was angry. He didn’t dare to ask more questions, and ran over in a small trot. The Second Miss’s matter was embarrassing enough, if it was reported that the Fourth Young Lady had something to do with the Heir of Prince Li, how would the Duke’s Mansion have any face.

Hearing that Duke was calling him, Ao Xian reluctantly stood up, and had to bid farewell to Ning Lingyun.

He had a very good impression of Ning Lingyun at this time, just felt that the woman in front of him was gentle, dignified, and also suited his heart. This was the image of the legal wife in his heart, which was much better than Ning Yuling, that hot-tempered little bitch.

“Young Lady, I…” Seeing Ao Xian leave, Caiyun hesitantly opened her mouth.

Before she finished speaking, she was slapped on the face by Ning Lingyun, and the little maidservant on the side was trembling with fear, and retreated to the corner, not daring to move.

“Are your eyeballs painted? You don’t even look at people clearly, if you make a mistake again, don’t you see me dig out your eyeballs.” Ning Lingyun hatefully scolded, the shyness that had been on her face turned into coldness.

“Yes…yes, the maidservant won’t do it again.” Caiyun knelt down with a thud and said anxiously.

“This time look clearly, next, that water…” Ning Lingyun took out a note from her arms and handed it to Caiyun, and asked coldly from a high position.

“Yes…yes, the Heir, the slave…the maidservant won’t admit the wrong person again.” Caiyun knew that she hadn’t seen the person clearly just now, and had annoyed Ning Lingyun, and was begging for mercy all the time.
