Wei Hanzhang nodded and quickly told his mother what he had seen and heard these days. At the end, he felt a little embarrassed: "Should I tell Sister Seven that Prince Chen came to visit..." "Absolutely not," Jiang said sternly: "Not many people know about this matter. What do you tell her to do? She has a soft temperament and is weak. Who knows if she is strict with her words? If the news spreads, , it will be a big hindrance to you." "But I won't tell you. If the seventh sister finds out in the future..." "If this matter spreads, it will not only hinder you, but also Chen Shizi," Jiang interrupted: "If she is sensible, even if she finds out later, she will understand why you didn't say anything." Thinking that the good son-in-law in her mind was actually being cared about by a concubine who looked down upon her at all, Jiang looked a little strange: "Qiniang is very high-spirited, but based on her status as a concubine, she cannot enter Chen Guogong's house. family." "I think they are quite destined," Wei Hanzhang said optimistically, as he did not have a deep-rooted concept of Menlin: "Fate has come, and status cannot be an obstacle. Besides, the seventh sister is now also a girl from the Duke's mansion. , it’s not too different.” The most important thing is Wei Hansu's temperament. She is timid when meeting strangers. It is really difficult for her to be a big lady, let alone the eldest daughter-in-law of the Duke's palace. Jiang completely disagreed with her daughter's views. She also has a son, and her son is now the heir to the Duke's palace. She wants to save others by herself. She wants Jiang to marry such a petty girl for her son and become a big wife. Just thinking about it makes her eyes darken. Not even the Crown Princess’s sister!
It's too early to talk about this now, so Jiang suppressed the idea of having a detailed talk with her daughter. The mother and daughter had lunch together. Xiao Junzhan sent someone over halfway, saying that he was busy with government affairs and couldn't come over for lunch. He would be free later. Come again.
Wei Hanzhang had long been accustomed to his sweetheart's considerate and considerate attitude in all aspects. He didn't even think that Xiao Junzhan sent someone to tell him what kind of favor he was, so he sent the servant away very naturally. On the contrary, Mrs. Jiang on the side looked at her daughter who was obviously not married yet, but she was getting along with His Highness the Crown Prince like an old married couple, and her expression changed slightly. My heart was slightly relieved because of my daughter's stubbornness and jealousy. Not long after lunch, Mrs. Jiang carefully warned not to tell anyone that she had almost arranged a marriage with Chen Zishu, and then she left. ………… On the other side, Liu Wanning walked out of Qixiang Palace with despair. Qi Yuxiao, who had been waiting for her for a long time outside, saw that her friend's eyes were red and she had obviously cried. She suddenly asked with concern: "But is she giving you a hard time?" Liu Wanning was not in the mood to talk to her at all, but she shed tears when she raised her eyes, "Chengyi, I have no choice but to go." If she couldn't enter the East Palace, what was the point of her waiting all these years?
A joke?
Why did she become the joke of the whole capital, while the Nine Niangs of the Wei family, who was born and whose appearance was not as good as hers, could win the favor of His Highness and have a mother-in-law in the world. Thinking of being so humiliated and ridiculed by a little girl in the palace just now, Liu Wanning clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves, going crazy with hatred. Everyone can see her jokes, but not Wei Hanzhang!
The evil thoughts in her heart were magnified as never before. Liu Wanning took Qi Yuxiao's hand and said with a bitter smile: "I know now that you are right. This Miss Wei is indeed not the same as us." Qi Yuxiao sneered, "You said earlier that she was very arrogant. You don't believe it..." What she wanted to say was stopped by Liu Wanning's wink. She looked around, shook her head slightly, and said, "I My brother found me a tourmaline tea set this morning, Chengyi, would you like to go take a look?" The residence of Duke An Guo in the Biegong Palace was not far from the Gu family, so Qi Yuxiao naturally would not refuse. After returning to his own territory, he waved away the surrounding servants, and as soon as the door was closed, Liu Wanning made tea and said softly: "When my brother presented this tea set, he told me something. Is Cheng Yi interested in hearing it?" Qi Yuxiao knew that something must have happened when his friend called him here. Hearing this, he said, "But is it related to that person?" Liu Wanning smiled slightly and said: "Did you know that the situation was so critical yesterday, how could she be safe and sound? Because the eldest son of Chen Guogong also sacrificed his life to protect her, so many guards saw that Chen Zishu protected people behind him all the way, and his own Regardless of their safety, the two of them hugged each other." "What!" Qi Yuxiao was shocked: "Chen Zishu? How could she be related to Chen Zishu?" She didn't believe it: "Could it be that the situation was urgent and Chen Zishu thought she was the princess, so he bothered to rescue her?" "Who is Chen Zishu? He doesn't even look at things he doesn't like," Liu Wanning said with a slight smile, "What about the Crown Princess? There are so many guards here, even if something goes wrong. , the guards are also responsible for the responsibility, and it is his turn to sacrifice his life to protect us." "But..." Qi Yuxiao opened her lips, but couldn't say anything to refute.
She was really familiar with Chen Zishu. They were both members of the Duke's family, and the two families were related by marriage. If we looked more closely, he was still her distant cousin. Chen Zishu is indeed a man who looks gentle and gentle, but is actually the most inhumane character. His behavior is decisive to the point of ruthlessness. Would such a person risk his life to protect the future crown princess with bodyguards? Still hugging him? Qi Yuxiao closed her lips and moved: "Is it true that you asked me to say it correctly? That person is really a fox?" It was so outrageous. Her husband was so obsessed with him that he didn't even enter her room for many days after they got married. It wasn't enough that she seduced her imperial uncle. She even didn't let Chen Zishu go?
"I don't know if she is Hu Meizi, but..." Liu Wanning said calmly: "People always have some tricks that you and I don't have." "There's another thing. I was shocked when I heard about it this morning." She sighed quietly and said, "Did you know that before the ninth girl of the Wei family came to the hairpin, Chen Shizi asked his aunt, Mrs. Hou of Yongle Houfu, to come to the palace? Wei family, propose marriage to her?" "Is this happening? There is no news in the capital. How did your brother know about it?" Qi Yuxiao was so shocked that he could hardly hold the tourmaline jade cup and said continuously: "My uncle the emperor may not know about this. I I have to tell him that he cannot be deceived by Hu Meizi!" As she said that, she was about to get up, but Liu Wanning pressed the back of her hand to stop her. "If His Highness didn't intervene, why do you think the Wei family didn't accept the marriage proposal from Chen Guogong's mansion?" Liu Wanning looked sour and resentful and said, "Your Highness, what else can't be tolerated for her? Even the past between her and your husband , can’t you bear it?” Qi Yuxiao thought of her husband who was as protective as a jade, and couldn't help but press her heart and said angrily: "All the men in the world have asked her to coax her away alone!"
