Chapter 503: Ask Mo.
Qi State, the residence of Duke Annan.
A woman in a white and pink dress was standing next to a small lake, watching the fish swimming around at the bottom of the lake.
The woman held the bait in her hand and threw it down from time to time.
More and more fish swam towards the woman. The fish under the bridge were piled up one on top of the other.
Even though each of these koi is very plump and doesn't look hungry at all, they seem to have no idea when they are full and just want to eat more.
Spread out all the bait in your hand.
The woman just stared blankly at the koi in the lake.
only.
Although the koi was reflected in the woman's eyes, in fact, her mind was not on the koi at all.
Her thoughts were wandering, not knowing where they were going.
"Sister, you spend all day either feeding fish, reading, or listening to music. It's been so many years, can you go on a blind date? You're already a grown-up girl."
Lord Annan’s eldest son, Nankun, came over and spoke to his sister.
Nan Wenmo, one of the two most talented women in Qi State, glanced at her brother and rolled her eyes at him: "Feeding fish, reading books and listening to music are all things I want to do, but going on a blind date is not what I want to do. If that's the case, then why should I go? Am I making myself uncomfortable?"
Nan Kun's eyebrows twitched: "That's true, but sister, you are already old. If you don't get married, you will really be unable to get married and you will become an old maid."
Nankun was a little worried.
All my brothers and sisters are married, except my sister.
In fact, Nan Kun knew why his sister didn't go on a blind date.
Everything is because of that man from Wu State, the current prime minister of Wu State.
Nan Kun actually admired the prime minister of Wu State very much.
Not only did he admire him, but His Majesty also admired him very much, so he extended an olive branch to Xiao Mochen. What's more, that olive branch was very thick, and he offered a condition that most Confucian disciples could not refuse.
If Xiao Mochen came to Qi, he would not only be able to display his talents and ambitions, but he could even marry his sister.
But Xiao Mochen refused, and his refusal was very decisive, and it could even be said that there was no room for negotiation.
now.
Xiao Mochi is the prime minister of Wu State. His sister is the daughter of Annan Gong, one of the two most famous talented women in Qi State. How could he possibly be with Xiao Mochi? If his sister was with Xiao Mochi regardless of everything, she might actually be excluded from the family tree.
"If I can't get married, then I can't get married. I'm not planning to get married. Besides, what is my brother talking about? How did I become an old maid?
According to my current lifespan, I should still be considered a little girl, right? Besides, don’t you have the second and third brothers to carry on the family line? The fourth brother is also fine. It’s not my turn at all. It doesn’t matter whether I get married or not.”
Nan Wenmo said in a light tone, refuting everything her brother said one by one.
"Well, this isn't a question of continuing the family line, but it's impossible for a girl like you to be a child for the rest of your life."
"Miss, there is a letter for you."
Just when Nan Kun was halfway through his words, a maid came over and handed a letter to Nan Wenmo.
Nan Wenmo took the letter handed to her by the palace maid, opened it and took a look.
The more he looked, the more Nan Wenmo's brows furrowed, and the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed.
Nan Kun looked at his sister like this with a serious expression.
Nan Kun felt that if he guessed correctly, this letter should have come from the Wu State.
To be more precise, this letter should be about the prime minister of Wu State.
Nan Kun knew that his sister had many friends in Wu State, and some of those friends were even members of the Wu State court and even a prince.
That prince is also Xiao Mochen’s good brother.
The prince was entrusted by his sister to write letters to her sometimes, telling her about some recent events that happened to Xiao Mochi.
After reading the letter, Nan Wenmo put the envelope away and looked at Nan Kun seriously: "Brother, I have to go to Wu Kingdom."
"???"
A question mark popped up above Nan Kun's head, wondering if he had heard it wrong.
"Sister, don't you understand one thing? You are still under house arrest. You can't even leave the Wu Kingdom, let alone the Imperial City.
And have you forgotten what your mother said before? If you go to find Xiao Mochi again, she will not recognize you as her daughter. "
"So, I need your help, brother." Nan Wenmo said with a smile.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"No, no! I refuse!" Nan Kun rejected his sister's request without even thinking about it.
My younger sister rarely asks me for help, but when she does, it's never good, let alone at a time like this.
"Brother, please help me, just this once, just once. I have never asked you for anything. Last time, when you went to the brothel to discuss the art of playing the zither with that beautiful girl, it was she who provided cover for you.
If my sister-in-law knew about that, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to enter your room for a month."
Nan Wenmo coquettishly shook Nan Kun's arm.
If it was his wife's coquettishness, Nan Kun wouldn't feel anything.
But faced with his younger sister's coquettish behavior, Nan Kun felt that he really couldn't stand it.
But you have to hold on even if you can't.
If anything happens to Wen Mo, won’t I blame myself for the rest of my life?
"No!" Nan Kun closed his eyes and made up his mind, "Absolutely not! I can agree to other things, but not this one! Even if you tell your sister-in-law about my going to the brothel, I will never cover it up for you. What if something happens to you? I will regret it for the rest of my life."
"Nothing will happen to me, don't worry."
When Nan Wenmo said this, Nan Kun looked at her with an incredulous look, as if to say, "When you said this, did you believe it yourself?"
"Brother! Even if you don't agree to me today, you have to agree to me! I tell you, I can do anything!" Nan Wenmo directly used her last trick.
"You?"
Just at this moment, Nan Kun discovered that something was wrong with his sister.
Nan Kun stretched out his hand and touched his sister's forehead.
The originally clever and quirky sister has turned into a paper doll.
"Ask Mo."
Nan Kun sighed, shook his head and looked into the distance.
Outside the imperial capital of Qi, Nan Wenmo disappeared into the horizon on the wind of flipping books.
