Chapter 230 Ignorance, I can't laugh or cry
Xu Sanniang thought about the beauty in private. Seeing that she was polite and gentle, she was no different from Princess Fu. She was a weak and bulliful person. She was also secretly glad that the matter planned by her aunt and her mother should have been done. How could she think that this was the first step? Before the time was close to health, Yijing said Such a "sarcasm" sentence is very different from the previous gentleness.
She doesn't know, not to mention the beautiful scenery, even Yichen is not weak and can be bullied, but because she has always received "family education" and that Lipin is the nominal mother of King Fu, so she will not be rebellious, so she can point out.
Xu Sanniang was not sober and answered with a smile: "Qiongyui was given by the Empress Dowager to assist the princess..."
"It's strange. I often go to Ci'an Palace, but why haven't I heard of such a palace daughter?" The scenery is still smiling, and the tone is more sarcastic.
Xu Sanniang was stunned.
At this time, Yichen said, "Qiongyi is not from Ci'an Palace, but a maid beside her mother. Because she was worried that I would be too busy, she asked her to come to the palace to wait."
Jing raised her eyebrows: "No wonder I don't know... Since she is not an old friend, why did she come to invite her?"
The little maid didn't know the details and said softly, "I don't know."
"I don't know what the Empress Li has to tell me. I don't know if A Jing goes there." Xu Sanniang said with a smile.
What should be strange in the study... The beautiful scenery smiled and asked Yichen, "I don't know if this Qiongyi has a place?"
Xu Sanniang's smile was stagnant, looked at the beautiful scenery doubtfully, and asked the words so clearly in her heart, which was not the style of everyone's boudoir.
"It's just a maidservant given by the concubine." Naturally, I will tell the truth.
When Si Niang heard this, she interrupted: "The eldest sister is too kind to the servants. She is a maidservant who dares to send people to invite us."
"The eldest sister didn't expect that the people around the beautiful concubine in the palace were so arrogant and rude." Jingqiao smiled and glanced at Xu Sanniang, who was embarrassed but still puzzled.
Gentle and virtuous? What a joke. These so-called virtues that everyone's boudoirs should follow are just used to pretend. If you really be gentle, you have to be called by a slave maidservant, and it's a laughing stock.
Xu Sanniang also recovered very quickly and quickly changed the topic. Fortunately, she expected that things would probably not be so easy, so she had to do it herself.
A cup of tea has not yet been seen, and the beautiful scenery and beautiful eyes are looking out. On one side, I saw the woman picking up the steps and gently lifting the embroidered skirt, wearing a pomegranate red embroidered diagonal narrow embroidered jacket wearing a butterfly, without looking down her eyes. A pair of autumn sparkling eyes looked at the people unscrupulently.
Yi Jing guessed that this was Qiongyi and raised the corners of her lips slightly - what kind of master there was, and there was any maidservant. Looking at this Qiongyi's behavior, you can probably see the arrogant appearance of Concubine Li.
"I have met the princess and your wives." Qiongyi was slightly blessed and raised a smile. The charming peach blossom eyes looked at the beautiful scenery: "I have also seen Wu Niang in the palace before."
The beautiful scenery seems to slide the lid carelessly, and doesn't look at Qiongyi, but gently "Yes": "So what? If you have seen me, do I have to listen to you?" This is already very sharp, and the scenery is rarely so sharp.
Of course, it was intentional and impatient to pretend, and let the Xu family and the Li concubine think that their Su family's daughter was weak and could be bullied.
Qiongyi was a little stunned, and the smile at the corners of her lips slowly fell down. She glanced at the princess secretly and saw that she was also full of solemn faces. Obviously, she was blaming herself. She couldn't help but sneer secretly. In front of Li's concubine, she also became hard in front of her mother's family and had a slight look at Yichen. Qiongyi raised the corners of her lips again and took a slight step forward: "Wu Niang misunderstood. How dare I call you? In fact, I used to be happy with you. Before I left the palace, I gave my maidservant a golden bead and asked her to hand it over to hand it over to you."
This is half true and half false. Qiongyi has already received a lot of rewards from Concubine Li, and she just used this as a reason.
"So that's it..." Meijing nodded slightly: "It's the beauty of the concubine, which makes people feel the heart, but I'm disrespectful."
Qiongyi was a little proud. She said that as soon as she lifted out the concubine, these noble women did not dare to neglect her.
"Where's the step shake?" The following question once again stunned Qiongyi, who had just put her eager face on her.
Jingjing slanted the corner of his eyes: "What, aren't you going to hand over the step shake given by your mother?"
"This...please also ask Wu Niang to move and go with the maidservant..."
"Qiongyi, do you still know the rules?" At this point, Yichen couldn't help it. Although his tone was not too high, it was full of solemnity, which made Qiong Yi's heart feel a little and subconsciously took a step back.
"Since it was given by my mother-in-law, why didn't you report it earlier and hide it until today, and it is time to present it, but why do you want to let the fifth sister go to the study?" Yi Chen snorted coldly.
Yijing stretched out her hand and shook Yichen's arm: "On a good day, why do I have to be annoyed with a useless maidservant? Just let her go back and bring the gift from the Empress."
Of course, Qiongyi was very annoyed - not only did she not successfully invite Su's Wu Niang to the study, but she took a step for nothing and was scolded by the two sisters, which really made people angry! I'm about to argue a few words. Why is the beautiful concubine also a nobleman in the palace? Shouldn't she move to get what she has given? Just opened her mouth, but saw Xu Sanniang squeezing her eyebrows and swinging her hands hidden in her sleeves. Then she endured this tone and said, "It's all my maidservant's negligence. Please wait a moment and get it now."
After Qiongyi said this, she took a few steps back. She was about to turn around, but she heard the word "slow down". She raised her eyes doubtfully and met two cold eyes, wrapped in sharpness that were not obviously looming. It came straight to her, but it came from the little lady who had just said nothing. Qiongyi had never seen it, but According to her guess, it should be the princess's other sister.
It's the fourth mother.
She looked at Qiongyi, and then turned her face to Yichen and smiled gently: "I don't know if there are miscellaneous travelogues in my brother-brother's study?"
Yi Chen replied, "The prince often reads some miscellaneous books in his spare time, so he should collect some."
Qiongyi can't help slandering - when did the prince often read miscellaneous books? Since she entered the royal palace and eagerly waited in the study, it has been more than a month, and she has not been looking forward to the arrival of the prince.
Siniang has already got up: "I want to choose a few books."
Yichen would not refuse. Si Niang asked Yijing again, "Do you want to go together?"
Yijing raised her eyebrows slightly and secretly thought that Qiongyi insisted on "coaxing" her to go to the study. She was afraid that there would be any plan. The fourth sister used to be a transparent person, and she should have seen the strangeness today. At this time, she made such a proposal... She only changed her mind slightly and understood the intention of Si Niang, so she smiled gently: "There are many elder sister and me. I don't see you, and I don't want to accompany the fourth sister if I want to have a good talk with her today.
Seeing the beautiful scenery, Si Niang said to Xu Sanniang, who was stunned, "Why don't you go with me?"
Xu Sanniang was worried that things were not as smooth as expected. She was full of thinking about how to find an opportunity to discuss with Qiongyi to avoid others. At the same time, what Yijing just said was actually a little "exited". If she insisted on staying here, she would be a little too ignorant, and if it made the beautiful scene even more impatient, or Adding vigilance is undoubtedly more unfavorable to act. Si Niang's proposal is actually a just right step.
Then he went to the study happily.
After looking at the figure of Si Niang and his party, Huaxie gradually went away along the Fangfei road. At this time, Yichen also understood the strangeness of Qiongyi, and later became worried: "I don't know..."
Yi Jingfang waved Xia Ke and Qiu Yue behind him and asked them to wait outside thexie and took Yu Chen's hand to comfort them: "Sister, don't worry, their purpose is mine, and I won't target the fourth sister."
Bingchen was very ashamed: "It's all because of me..."
"What does others have to do with my sister?" Yijing sneered: "Qiongyi so obviously led me to the study. What kind of trap must have been arranged? Is my sister sure to detect it secretly?"
In these days, Yichen has also been on guard against Qiongyi - it does not let her get close to the main courtyard and get the opportunity to bother King Fu. The study of the inner house, located in a courtyard in Xiyuan, is called Fanyintang, but it is really remote and deserted. It is not so much a study as a library. Even if Fuwang needs it, he only sends a subordinate to pick up books. He has never set foot on it. There is a side door in the Fanyin Hall, which is connected to a Xiao Shengyuan. Xiao Shengyuan is only separated by a corridor from the study in the outer courtyard, which is the place where King Fu often discusses with the magistrates of the royal palace.
The study of the outer court has an access control, which is guarded by the royal family's own soldiers. Qiongyi will be blocked even if she intends to approach Fuwang's "gong".
Therefore, Yichen did not pay attention to Qiongyi's move to buy the porter at the side door of the inner house and repeatedly went to Xiao Shengyuan to wander around.
But at this time, when the royal palace held a banquet, the women's family were all in the inner house. The male guests may go to Xiaosheng Garden. There are many people and miscellaneous things. If Qiongyi buys the woman at the side door and puts in some schezing people...
"Will it be His Royal Highness..." Thinking of this possibility, Ichen was shocked.
Yi Jing shook her head: "Even if Concubine is confused, she will not use the reputation of the sixth prince to count on me. Besides, Qiongyi will lead me there now, while the guests have not arrived, so as not to attract more attention from others. My sister still explored secretly to find out what the Xu family was thinking.
Yi Chen thought for a while - the steward of the second door is her companion, the most loyal and reliable. When she will not be bought by Qiongyi, Qiongyi only has the opportunity to buy the woman at the side door of the fanyintang.
Immediately instructed Zishu to inform Mother Bai, the stewener, and first privately detained the woman at the side door to question.
The woman had already received a reward from Qiongyi, and thought that she was from Li's concubine. Sooner or later, she would fly to the branch, so she agreed to Qiongyi's instructions. At first, she clenched her teeth and didn't say anything. Seeing that Mother Bai was going to torture her with a cane without saying a word, she was so scared and handed over Qiongyi's instructions one by one.
It turned out that Qiongyi often went to hang out in Xiaoshengyuan. She met a bodyguard surnamed Zhang, and took a heavy gold bracelet to buy the woman at the side door, so that she could "hear the message" today. As soon as the time came, she led the bodyguard from the side door into the shade hall!
After hearing this, Yi Chen was furious and sneered: "What kind of conspiracy are they going to do? Are they going to harm your fifth sister..."
"It's not so far." Yijing was not surprised at all. It seemed that everything was as expected by her, and she was not annoyed: "Prince Li's brain... It's really amazing... She should have taken Qiongyi's plan and planned to use the arrangement of this spring banquet to take the handle of my private meeting with the royal bodyguards and threaten the elders to agree to the marriage. It's just a waiting daughter in my district. He Laoli's concubine plans like this. Even if she is at her mind, where does she put the face of Her Royal Highness? After thinking for a while, the scenery laughed even more: "There are still strange things in this."
In a moment, he made a plan and came slowly close to Yichen's ear.
After listening to this, only Yichen shook his head frequently and worried about his mask: "How can you put your sister in danger? Besides, if you get rid of Qiongyi, it will be unfilial..."
Ying Jing stared at her gentle and virtuous eldest sister and sighed for a while.
