The long-haired woman asked curiously with a soft voice.
At this time, everyone was climbing a mountain, chatting in twos and threes.
But as soon as he said this.
The air suddenly became quiet.
Most people's eyes unanimously turned to Zhao Lingfei.
At this moment, Zhao Lingfei had separated from the crowd and was walking alone on the edge of the mountain road. She turned her head slightly and looked at the delicate purple flowers in trance. Her white clothes were incompatible with the vermilion flowers.
Everyone's eyes were different, but not many people seemed to be surprised.
Presumably many people have heard of this rumor in the house, but it has never been personally acknowledged by the person involved.
Ning Ying, who was chatting with others, suddenly stopped talking, turned around, and stared at the silent Concubine Zhao Ling with her beautiful eyes.
Looked at it carefully.
In her impression, Concubine Zhao Ling did not like to wear white clothes made by students from the Taiqing Prefecture.
Before returning to her hometown to visit relatives at the beginning of the year, Zhao Lingfei often wore brightly colored clothes.
Especially red.
For a while, whenever a woman wore a red dress in the house, she would attract special attention, because many men in the house knew that there was a woman who loved to wear red.
But after Zhao Lingfei came back from that hometown that seemed to be called Dali, she...
The whole person's dress became simple.
The light and delicate makeup I used to wear is no longer there.
Now, no matter what time, I look as naked as a hibiscus.
Well, although it is still extremely beautiful, it has also lost some of its brightness, and the whole person is a little darker.
By the way, the dark jade medallion that she has been wearing around her waist since I met her is also gone. I remember that it was always close to her body. In her spare time, she would often wipe it with an embroidered handkerchief and bite her lip in a daze.
I thought it was a relic left by her relatives before, but now it seems...
Ning Ying raised her eyebrows and moved her eyes upward.
and.
The most fascinating thing, and also a major basis for rumors in the house, is her tied up black hair.
Coiled hair is also called tied hair.
In the mainstream tradition of the Xuanhuang world, there is no mandatory hairstyle for a woman after she gets married, and she can change it as she wishes.
but.
Confucianism does.
There is a Confucian academy in Duyou City, so many people in the city know about some Confucian customs, and Ning Ying has also heard about them.
The wives of Confucian scholars must wear their black hair tied up in order to maintain their appearance.
In the basic etiquette of Confucianism, there are also many things to pay attention to when wearing hair.
Unless you have made some serious mistake, you are not allowed to put down your black hair in front of outsiders.
Only her husband can untie her black hair.
And the hairstyle must be dignified and unique, and cannot be played around casually.
Ning Ying looked at Zhao Lingfei's curly hair with interest.
The hairstyle is dignified and neat, but it is simply held in place with a wooden hairpin. There are no other gold and silver hair accessories. It is as simple as her current clothes. This does not seem to be stipulated by Confucianism...
I heard that the reason why Confucianism requires women to have their hair tied up and behave dignified is because women have to run the household, and this is a symbol of status and an oath, swearing that after they get married, everything from their hair to their toes will be under the control of their husbands.
Ning Ying sneered at this, what kind of nonsense ethics was this.
but……
Ning Ying smiled playfully.
So, Xiao Lingfei’s husband is a Confucian scholar?
The corners of her mouth were still raised.
"Xiao Lingfei, is what your senior sister Yu'er said true?"
After Senior Sister Yu'er asked the question just now, Zhao Lingfei remained silent. I don't know if she heard her, but she still turned her head to admire the flowers and kept walking.
Therefore, no one could see her expression.
At this time, Ning Ying spoke again, and since there was no one to chat with, his voice was clearly audible.
Everyone's eyes were all on Zhao Lingfei, who was turning her head.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Three breaths...
Fortunately, everyone didn't have to wait too long this time.
The next moment, Concubine Zhao Ling turned her head.
Smile sweetly.
"Um."
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
In addition to her rare and brilliant smile, it was more because of her response.
Among the crowd, there were some men whose expressions remained unchanged, with a smile on their handsome faces, but their eyes flickered, and they blinked their slightly sore eyes that had been stared at for too long, and turned their heads no longer to look at the person whom they had known for a long time.
An unattainable woman.
In addition, many people inhaled slightly and were in a state of shock.
What you hear in rumors and what the person involved admits are completely different things.
Now they finally confirmed it.
Concubine Zhao Ling has a husband!
This will definitely become a hotly discussed topic among many students in the four palaces of Taiqing recently.
The first one to ask, Senior Sister Yu'er, opened her pretty eyes. She licked her lips and opened her mouth to ask some more curious questions. Well, for example... that Confucian scholar... he was from the academy.
A reading seed?
But Senior Sister Yu'er's eyes met Ning Ying's indifferent look, and she immediately shut up.
An awkward silence fell in the air.
"Okay." Ning Ying smiled, walked over and took Zhao Lingfei's hand, smiling.
"Today is the wedding day for Sister Yao'er and Brother Cheng. Let's hurry up. The ceremony is about to begin."
Everyone should say yes and hurry up the mountain.
Ning Ying glanced at Zhao Lingfei, her expression was still the same as before, cold and demure, as if nothing had happened just now.
She coughed lightly, looked around, and suddenly found a topic and said:
"I didn't expect that the Xinran Sect actually has a relationship with Madam Ziyi. We can borrow this quiet mountain for half a day. I have never seen Madam Ziyi in Zhaixing Tower... It seems that joining the Xinran Sect is quite good, Xiao Ling
Concubine, how about you come after you graduate?"
Zhao Lingfei smiled and did not answer.
Under the secluded mountains.
Zhao Rong returned to Lu Wan's carriage.
Seeing that Lu Wan hadn't come back yet, he left too.
He found a restaurant very close to the entrance at the foot of Youshan Mountain.
After going in and ordering a cup of tea, I looked around and saw that there was indeed a monk using the magic of mirror flowers and water moon, watching the Taoist couple's ceremony on Youshan Mountain.
It was a ten-foot-square water curtain in the center of the hall.
Zhao Rong came closer and took a closer look.
Above the flowing water curtain, the panoramic view of Youshan Observation Tower is clearly visible.
Zhao Rong squeezed among the crowd and looked up.
After waiting for a while, I found that beautiful figure among the crowd that was coming slowly.
He didn't care about anyone else at the ceremony.
His eyes were locked on Qingjun.
The water curtain is viewed from an oblique angle. Although it is very clear, it is a bit far away. Only the general appearance of Qingjun can be seen, but the specific expression cannot be seen.
But Zhao Rong felt that enough was enough.
Looking at her quietly, he felt very at ease.
After being separated for more than half a year, I finally found her.
Zhao Rong glanced at the two pairs of jade plaques around his waist and smiled softly.
Not long after.
Within the water curtain.
White mist fills the air, and fairy music sings.
A group of fairies wearing feathers and colorful ribbons were flying.
