Chapter 336
Concubine Yang heard that Wu Meiniang didn't delay at all, so she followed the maidservant who sent the message to the main hall in the front courtyard of Wu Mansion.

"Imperial concubine, King Chu, my lady is here." The maid brought Wu Meiniang outside the hall, and said to Concubine Yang and Li Ke in the hall.

Hearing the voice of the servant girl outside the hall, Li Ke put down the teacup in his hand, and casually raised his eyes, but he was deeply amazed by the scene in front of him after such a casual glance.

Wu Meiniang has no makeup, her face is plain, her cheeks are as red as peach blossoms, exuding the liveliness and purity that a young girl should have in her cardamom years.

Wrapped in a water-blue long skirt of hidden flowers, it will drag the floor, and covered with a goose-yellow brocade jacket, which is well cut to complement the snow outside the house that has not yet melted. It is a flower bone flower that blooms on the pure white snow, and it is like spring coming.

The scene in front of him deeply astonished Li Ke.

"My little girl pays respects to the noble concubine and the king of Chu." Wu Meiniang walked slowly into the hall in front of everyone's eyes, and bowed her knees in front of Concubine Yang and Li Ke.

Wu Meiniang had the grace to save Li Ke's life. Seeing Wu Meiniang worshiping in front of him, she immediately stood up and helped Wu Meiniang, and said to Wu Meiniang, "You are welcome, Meiniang, get up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Wu Meiniang stood up upon hearing this.

Li Ke called meiniang lightly, and Wu Meiniang responded simply, but this scene fell in the eyes of Concubine Yang, but she was full of puzzlement.

Concubine Yang asked the warrior Xun: "Mr. Ying, is Meiniang your baby name?"

Concubine Yang only thought that Mei Niang was Wu Meiniang's baby name, just like Li Ke's tiger head, but when a man and a woman first met, there was no reason to call a woman by her baby name directly.

But the warrior Xun shook his head and said: "That's not true, Ernan's baby name is not Meiniang, this is the first time I've heard of the word Meiniang."

Concubine Yang became more and more strange after hearing the answer from the warrior Xun. Concubine Yang lightly reprimanded Li Ke: "Ke'er, you met him well, what kind of name did you call indiscriminately?"

Li Ke was puzzled when he heard the news from the warrior Xun. Could it be that the name of this girl from the Wu family in front of him is not Mei Niang? Li Ke's heart was suddenly disturbed by the scene in front of him. up.

At this time, before Li Ke could reply, Wu Meiniang said first: "Returning to the imperial concubine, the word 'Meiniang' is a short name for the little girl when His Highness was in Jingzhou. The little girl never mentioned it to daddy, so daddy naturally doesn't know. .”

After listening to Wu Meiniang's words, Li Ke remembered that Wu Meiniang's Meiniang name in the historical records was the 11th year of Zhenguan, which came from the title of Wu Meiniang bestowed on her by Li Shimin after Wu Meiniang entered the palace, not her real name.And now it's only the end of the seventh year of Zhenguan, and Wu Meiniang is far from entering the palace, so why did Meiniang say anything?
Li Ke's casual remark outside Jiangling City was a joke in Li Ke's eyes, but it was not the case in the eyes of others.

"The Book of Songs" has a cloud: "Siqi Daren, the mother of King Wen, Simei Zhou Jiang, the wife of the Beijing family."

The word "Mei" is originally Fulang's pet name for the person he likes. Li Ke called "Mei Niang" in front of Concubine Yang and the warrior couple. These two words represent too much mean.

Among other things, Yang Fei, Samurai Xun, and Yang Shi who were sitting in the hall all had smiles on their faces, and Wu Meiniang's cheeks were already blushing.

Li Ke himself knew what he had done, but it was not the time to explain it now, not to mention how could he explain it logically, so Li Ke could only scratch his head and sat obediently aside.

Seeing Li Ke's appearance, Concubine Yang thought that Li Ke was young, and she was ashamed of it, so she said to the warrior Xun and Yang Shi, "Although Ke'er was born in the clan, he grew up in the northern land since he was a child. He is a little older. It’s hard to avoid being a bit blunt in your words and deeds when you lead the troops in the army, so don’t be surprised.”

Li Ke's liking for Wu Meiniang is something that the Yang family is happy to see come true. As for the warrior Xun, as a military official, he admires Li Ke more. , So the two also waved their hands and said, "It's okay, it's okay."

Having met Wu Meiniang for the first time in the palace three days ago, Concubine Yang was already very pleased with Wu Meiniang, but now that she saw Li Ke's appearance again, she liked Wu Meiniang even more when she saw the cute and clever Wu Meiniang in front of her. Concubine Yang pointed to the seat beside her He said to Wu Meiniang: "What is Meiniang doing standing up, come and sit next to Bengong."

Concubine Yang is a noble concubine, the first of the four concubines in the harem, second only to the empress in terms of status in the palace, and Li Shimin loves Li Ke very much, and mothers are more expensive than their children, so Concubine Yang is extremely important inside and outside the palace. How could a girl sit with her, Concubine Yang dragged Wu Meiniang to sit beside her, so she especially valued Wu Meiniang.

"Concubine Xie." Wu Meiniang didn't feel too much shyness, she was as graceful as when Concubine Yang first met, she responded softly, walked to Concubine Yang's side, and sat down.

Concubine Yang looked at Wu Meiniang sitting next to her, with a slim appearance, with her hands on her knees, her demeanor was quiet, she was a lady from everyone, a smile appeared on the corners of Concubine Yang's mouth, she said to the warrior Xun and Yang Shi: "Ke Although Er'er is young, she still has some skills in knowing people, Mei Niang is beautiful and intelligent, she really deserves the word 'Mei' for Ke'er."

Yang said modestly: "The imperial concubine is absurdly praised, I don't want the appearance of the little girl Puliu to be as precious as the imperial concubine and Your Highness."

Concubine Yang heard the words, took Wu Meiniang's hand, put it in her own palm, and said with a smile: "If Mei Niang is still in the posture of Puliu, there will be no one in this world who can be called a beauty."

Concubine Yang said, while gently holding Wu Meiniang's hand, she put it on the palm of her hand and rubbed it gently as if lovingly.

Concubine Yang caressed Wu Meiniang's palm, seemingly unintentionally, but in fact she did it on purpose.

Wu Meiniang's hands are very beautiful, with slender fingers, which are like slender nephrite when held in the hand, the back of the hand is delicate, and the fingertips slide like brocade, but these are not what Concubine Yang really pays attention to, until Concubine Yang holds Wu Meiniang's hand When she touched the callus on the front of Wu Meiniang's thumb with her hand, the smile on her face became stronger.

Wu Meiniang was born in the Duke's Mansion, loved by warriors, and spoiled since she was a child. The callus on her thumb naturally did not come from hard work, and the callus was only a small piece on the front of the thumb, which could only be accumulated over the years Born with a brush, Wu Meiniang should also be a woman who knows books and etiquette.

Concubine Yang asked Wu Meiniang: "Meiniang didn't know what to do when she was free in the mansion?"

Wu Meiniang turned half to Concubine Yang, lowered her eyebrows and said, "Little girl usually doesn't like much in the mansion. When she is bored, she just reads and paints. Sometimes she also does some female red embroidery."

"Oh? Then do you have any favorite books to read?" Concubine Yang then asked Wu Meiniang.

Wu Meiniang replied: "Aniang makes the little girl read "Nv Commandment" every day, and besides that, she also reads the Four Books and Five Classics with the husband."

After listening to Wu Meiniang's answer, Mrs. Yang became more and more satisfied. Concubine Yang said to Wu Meiniang: "This is the best. A woman is not only knowledgeable about books and etiquette, but also can take care of both inside and outside the house. She is called a good person. If you have time in the future , you can enter the palace with your mother, maybe His Majesty also wants to see you."

As soon as Concubine Yang's words came out, Wu Meiniang didn't know what Concubine Yang meant.

Li Shimin is the son of heaven, with heavy state affairs and a myriad of daily affairs, even a samurai can hardly see him, so how can he find the time to meet a little girl like Wu Meiniang? Concubine Yang is quite satisfied with Wu Meiniang and wants Li Ke's father to meet her Li Ke is the future Princess Chu.

A gleam of joy flashed in Wu Meiniang's eyes, but then her expression returned to peace, she stood up and replied, "Young girl takes orders."
