Chapter 217 Mrs. Deng Guo Next
The Wang You was very busy getting up and bending his knees, and said crisply, "I dare not be praised by you. I'm afraid!"
"This palace now lives in another courtyard to escape the heat, and it was also an accident to borrow the temple last night." Yuan Xiu smiled faintly, took off the string of honey wax beads on his wrist, gave it to Cai Lv and took it to Wang Youting. He said, "There is nothing suitable for you as a gift. This string of hand beads is often worn by my palace. You can take it and play with it."
As Yuanxiu, the things they carry with will not be bad, but the Wang and Li families are both hope families, and there is no lack of this string of beads, but the meaning of the things that Yuanxiu often wears are different. Wang Youting is a little hesitant and doesn't know whether to take them or not. Li quickly refused on her behalf: "Your master has always been generous - but my concubine brought this child here today just called She looked at the style of the golden branches and jade leaves. Why did she even take away the long things of your lord? I also beg your lord to take back your life!"
"It's just a string of beads." Yuanxiu said inadvertently, "The Li family of the Wang family is not short of such a thing. It's just the first time to meet and play with girls. This child is not only the niece of the fifth sister-in-law of my palace, but also a relative of this palace. The elders give a little gift to the younger generation, why should the wife stop her?"
She said this and then smiled and thanked Wang You on behalf of Wang You. After saying a few words, Li remembered Sun Niang's words and did not dare to say more. After the politeness, she found an opportunity to say goodbye. Yuan Xiu naturally would not refuse. She politely retained a sentence, and Li resigned again, and she agreed.
The group here prepared to go back to the Zige courtyard. On the other side, Li took Wang Youting and Wang Zixia back to the yard, so they sent the servants out to the main hall, leaving only their close confidants to talk.
"Your master didn't see Shi Niang. Did you misread it yesterday?" Li frowned and looked at Sun Niang and said. This Sun Niang was not very old, but because she was a servant of the Wang family and was also very young, she was very liked by Li. She was specially appointed to listen to the instructions. At this moment, she heard Li's words with reproach and hurriedly argued: "I dare to hide it from my wife. I saw it clearly when I went to deliver the dress yesterday. It was indeed the tenth mother. Son - Two days before the fifth, my husband asked me to send something to the ten wives. At that time, the ten wives still kept me to ask about the wife, the Duke, the queen in the palace and Lang Jun. How could I admit my mistake if I went back to the Li family for a long time?
Wang Zixia arrived and didn't know what had happened. At this moment, he interrupted, "What are your mother and Mother?"
"Yesterday, I was doing my homework. Little Shami said that there was a woman in the temple who visited Cuihua Mountain. Seeing that it was too late, it was difficult to get back in time, so she came to stay overnight, but she didn't plan to stay outside, so she didn't have any replacement clothes. Because she asked the temple for a place to sell ready-to-wear nearby, you know this Cuiwei The temple was originally a palace. Although after the temple was changed over the years, there was a temple fair in June, but now it has passed. Not to mention that there are people selling ready-made clothes in nearby villages, and the material is also ordinary Gebu. Xiao Shami said that the woman's wife was rich and noble, but she took more than a dozen bodyguards to swim in Cuihua Mountain, so she came to ask me if there was here. Lend the extra dress." Li touched Wang Youding's head and said anx, "At that time, I didn't come out of the quiet room. After listening to the little Sami, the young lady asked someone to find a set of new clothes that had not been changed, and did not ask the little Sami to handle it, and directly asked Sun Niang to send it! Originally, it was nothing, but the mother came back and said that she saw Shi Niang in the woman's yard!"
Wang Zixia was surprised and said, "Didn't Shi Niang go to the green garden on Zige Peak to escape the summer? Speaking of which, the Zige Courtyard where you are now is also on that mountain. It is common for the two to travel together in Cuihua Mountain, but... Although we have met your master just now, we have not seen the ten mothers!"
"So that's why I want to ask if I'm wrong!" Li frowned and said, "Shi Niang is a serious woman, and she is not an invisible identity. In terms of which, she is also qualified to accompany the noble Lord. Why does she only see green around her? If Mother is really right, isn't she offended your lord? She thought about it carefully and said confusedly, "Looking at your master's appearance, there doesn't seem to be any displeasure!"
Wang Zixia was summoned by Empress Dowager Zhaoxian several times before, but she knew something about Yuanxiu's temperament and shook her head and said, "Mother, although your master is young, it is not difficult to grow up in the palace. It's just that although Shi Niang is more straightforward, she is not a reckless and ignorant person. She doesn't know the identity of your master. If she knows, she will definitely not know how to restrain and blindly contradict your master!"
"Not only Shi Niang, but even the maid and bodyguard of Shi Niang..." Li pondered, felt a little uneasy, and asked Wang Zixia, "Twenty-two-lang, you know more about this lord, so you can see, what's going on?"
"Your status is noble, and you are also particularly favored among the princesses. It is inevitable that you are more indulgent, but the emperor has always been generous. Although the tenth mother is not her servant, as long as she does not offend the taboo of your lord, you will not embarrass her much." Wang Zixia thought for a moment and said, "But Shi Niang's close attendants didn't see..."
Li's face changed, thought about it quickly, and muttered, "Is it because Her Royal Highness reminded her of something with Princess Dongping?"
The prince was surprised and said, "What's the matter?"
"The son-in-law." Li frowned, "Speaking of this, I went back to the palace and talked about it with Her Royal Highness - Emperor Xianzong's filial piety has just passed, and the palace began to choose a son-in-law for the three noble lords of Dongping, Yuanxiu and Yunzhou. This was known all over Chang'an at that time, but although this matter was a vigorous, only Princess Dongping was summoned in the end. Some people entered the palace and saw it, but the two noble lords of Yuanxiu and Yunzhou were indifferent... Her Royal Highness was worried that the following two noble lords would be wrong because of Princess Dongping's delay in deciding the choice, but Princess Dongping's temperament was gentle**. She was worried that too much urging would make Princess Dongping resentful. If she was born, she could not tolerate it. The rumors of marrying the princess to live in the palace for a long time are not good. The last time I entered the palace, the Queen asked about this, and I guessed that it was because of Princess Yuanxiu, there was a saying that she had to ring the bell. During this period, Her Royal Highness and today... The last time the Queen said that she would send someone to remind Princess Yuanxiu as soon as possible to calculate the time, Yuanxiu The princess is afraid that she should know now.
Wang Zixia thought for a moment and shook her head and shook her head: "Princess Xiu herself is the queen of Xianzong. She has always supported the queen in the palace. At the beginning, before Concubine Wei Hua and others entered the palace, Zhao, the beautiful concubine Zhao was self-favored and meritorious in giving birth to the queen, and she was disrespectful to the queen. Your lord saw every pair of Zhao. There are many ridiculs and scolding. It is said that the reason why Concubine Li was demoted to Fangyi was because of the pregnancy letter after Empress Dowager Zhaoxian's funeral, deliberately sent someone to humiliate your lord and angered her... It is true that this nobleman's temperament is indulgent, but the child accidentally met her when she was summoned by Empress Dowager Zhaoxian, but she was not a confused person, let alone the queen of this matter. Your Highness has no at it. It's all due to Princess Dongping's own thoughts, but this noble lord still has this kind of capacity.
Hearing Wang Zixia's words, Li thought about it carefully and was also reassigned: "This lord was raised by Empress Dowager Zhaoxian. Although her nursing mother, Mrs. Xue, was famous and fierce in Chang'an City, she was definitely a refreshing person. I also thought about your character. Even if she is proud and unruly, it won't be too bad... But why on earth was Shi Niang hidden by her?
Sun Niang listened and said, "When you are in the yard, you can naturally hide the ten women in the room or inner room, and don't ask the ten women to come out so that your wife can see them, but it is impossible to continue to hide the ten women when you leave Cuiwei Temple, right? Now that we are lying in the sun, we have definitely not wrapped the ten women tightly. Even if we cover our faces with a cap, we can recognize them by looking at their bodies. How can we send someone to take a sneak look when your lord leaves the temple at this time?
Li Shi heard this and did not answer immediately, but looked at Wang Youting, who was leaning beside him, and smiled, "What do you think of this?"
Wang You thought for a moment and shook her head and said, "I don't think so."
"Oh? Why is this? Li looked at her with great interest. Sun Niang's face turned red, and she heard Wang You say seriously: "Since the place where the ten cousins live now is not far from your summer resort, and Sun Niang saw ten cousins in your master's yard, it is naturally impossible for you not to know the identity of the ten cousins. Similarly, the maid of honor who picked green came to borrow it. The dress you changed and know our identity, and naturally we know the relationship with the ten cousins. Yesterday, when Sonniang went to deliver the dress, she saw the ten cousins and thought that you didn't know that we were also there at that time, so the ten cousins were seen by Sonniang. Today, we didn't even see the people around the ten cousins. Obviously Your master is not going to ask us to meet the ten cousins. If the young lady is your mother, when we leave the small courtyard where you are temporarily living, she will send people to stare at you - didn't you bring a lot of bodyguards to visit Cuihua Mountain this time? Leave two reliable people to break up and supervise. If we want to peep, we can't say whether we can succeed... but we will definitely offend your master!"
She blinked her eyes and said, "The young lady thought that even if the tenth cousin had offended your lord, since your uncle saw today that she was no different from the 22nd uncle, she took off the beads on her wrist to make a meeting gift for the little mother. Besides, it would not be a big deal. Besides, the cousin was also a girl from a family. The 22nd uncle also said that your master was indulgent. But the bottom of the heart is not bad. If no one intervenes, the ten cousins may be easier to get out. If we rush to offend your lord again, maybe things will be worse when you are angry!"
After saying that, Wang You put out his tongue, put his hands behind his back, and looked at Li with a smile: "Uncle and mother-in-law, since you are here to visit Cuihua Mountain, we are now at the foot of the mountain. Although the temple fair has passed, there are far less people nearby than from the first to the third day of June, but there are many people in your party, and no one will pay attention to it. Why not make people quiet? Do you want to ask quietly, or can you know the reason why your aunt attacked the tenth cousin?
