Views:

Guard Chief Ying diligently took the frozen cheese brought from the green room and personally offered it to Song Zaishui. He said flatteringly: "Good cousin, please calm down. This is all because of Changfeng's fault and he didn't say anything to me! I'll take it for granted." He will send someone there. Cousin, please look at my face. I have just been sunburned to pieces. I just came back to take a bath and change clothes, and I haven’t recovered from it yet!”

Song Zaishui took the frozen cheese and took a bite, and said angrily: "You deserve it! You know it's all you need to give aunt a soft drink, but you are stubborn and refuse to do it every time. I think it's aunt's fault." .Xing'er is willing to let you go, otherwise if you were someone else's mother, I would have beaten you into submission!"

"How is this possible?" Wei Changying said with a smile, "That's my mother. If she doesn't love me, who will?"

Song Zaishui sneered and said: "You are so heartless. You know that your aunt loves you, so you just bully her? You think you are in good health, and you even chose a sunny place to kneel as punishment, and asked your aunt to stay in the summer house. How can you be so cruel? It feels uncomfortable even after being fried in oil. I really don’t know where you can be so cruel!”

"Why did I bully my mother? My mother was taking good care of herself in the room with ice, but I was badly sunburned." Wei Changying asked hopefully, "By the way, my mother said that I don't need to practice as a female celebrity chef in the future. ”

"Just think about it!" Song Zaishui glared at her and sneered, "Auntie pretended to be confused and let you come back, and then urged me to return to the imperial capital..."

Wei Changying said with a guilty conscience: "Oh, good cousin, I won't dare to forget it next time. Wasn't it careless this time? Cousin is the most generous, please spare me! Or I will go back and beat Changfeng to vent your anger. ?”

"It's easy for you to sell your brother." Song Zaishui scooped up a large spoonful of frozen cheese and ate it. He glanced at her sideways and said, "But there are also things I don't like about you..." She suddenly showed her displeasure. With a kind smile, "Don't I want my aunt to ask me about the specific return date? So, I brought up your marriage and talked about a lot of Mrs. Su's preferences! My aunt wants to know this now!"

Guard Chief Ying Yilin knew that the Mrs. Su she was talking about was the mother of her fiancé Shen Zangfeng and the head mistress of the Shen family in Xiliang. Even though she had been prepared to deal with Shen Zangfeng for a long time, she could not How about shaking your fist at your mother-in-law? At this moment, my future mother-in-law was a little frightened and said, "What?"

Song Zaishui smiled gloomily: "Mrs. Su's favorite daughter-in-law is a dignified and elegant daughter-in-law. For example, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Shen family, Mrs. Liu, and the second daughter-in-law, Mrs. Duanmu, are truly virtuous, virtuous and gentle people!"

She deliberately emphasized the words "true" and "submissive", narrowed her eyes and said, "So my aunt was originally softened by you. After hearing about Mrs. Su's preferences, she decided to teach you to become Mrs. Su no matter what. My dear daughter-in-law, the trouble lies behind you!”

Wei Changying groaned, grabbed her arm and shook her wildly: "Cousin, you are so cruel! I am your biological cousin!"

"Cousins, why do you have the nerve to say that my cousin is cruel?" Song Zaishui was shaken so hard that she couldn't hold the bowl. He quickly put the frozen cheese on the table to avoid staining his clothes and sneered, "You dare to drag me into the water, but If you don’t go to the rescue, who will I use as a shield?”

Guard Chief Ying held his forehead and groaned: "Cousin, are you trying to kill me? I'm busy practicing martial arts now and I don't have enough time. Where can I find the time to learn about dignity and elegance? Besides, it's just a matter of learning those things. , What’s the use of studying so much? You and your mother will force me to death!”

"You can do it even if you don't want to learn!" Song Zaishui suddenly came to her ear and said with a half-smile, "I'll go to my great-aunt later to say hello. If you help me and send me away without calling my great-aunt, I'll How about I help you convince your aunt to stop forcing you to learn things you don’t want to learn?”

"We are full cousins!" Wei Changying immediately took her hand and said affectionately, "Even if I don't help anyone, I have to help my cousin!"

Song Zaishui, the cousin who was so upset like a book, glared at her: "It's weird to believe you siblings!"

Wei Changying didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Grandma loves me the most. Don't worry, cousin. I will go and tell grandma later that if I keep you here for a few days, just stay with me."

"I'm afraid you have to use a more useful excuse." Song Zaishui's face darkened, he sighed, glanced at He, Lvfang and others, and whispered, "My father wrote a letter saying that the Qintian Prison has been It’s time to discuss the auspicious date for the wedding…”

Because of Song Zaishui's status as the Crown Princess, He and others had never dared to talk in front of her. Only now did they have the courage to say: "This is a good thing. My maid must congratulate my cousin!" According to what they heard The rumor was that Emperor Xu Song was the crown prince in Shui Jiji, but Song had been in Shui Jiji for three years. Not to mention taking over the East Palace, she was still relying on the Wei family... The servants were all murmuring whether this promise had changed. Now that they heard the news, they were all busy saying congratulations.

However, Song Zaishui glanced at Mr. He and held back what he wanted to say. He just said lightly: "Aunt He is interested."

He turned to Wei Changying and said seriously, "It's all up to you."

Wei Changying quickly swallowed the grapes and said in surprise: "What? Then cousin, why don't you go back to the imperial capital quickly?"

Song Zaishui glared at her and said, "Why do you care so much? Will you help me?"

"This is not a matter of whether I can help you, cousin." Wei Changying said in surprise, "How can I help? What a big deal it is to delay the prince's wedding?"

Song Zaishui stamped his feet angrily and said, "You guys get out first!"

He and others glanced at Wei Changying, and seeing that Wei Changying nodded, they put down the things in their hands and exited the inner room. Seeing the last person closing the door, Song Zaishui immediately stepped on the words "demure and Shuliang" under his feet, rolled up his sleeves, reached out and pinched Wei Changying's neck, and said with gritted teeth: "You heartless! You have a good fiancé yourself, but you don’t want to think about others? Prince... He is not married yet. Not to mention the women in the East Palace, he has five children. It would be better for me to be a sister-in-law for the rest of my life than to be married. This kind of thing!”

Song Zaishui was an ordinary lady. She was no better than Wei Changying who had practiced martial arts since she was a child. She didn't use her full strength. To Wei Changying, pinching her like this a few times was nothing. He just let her vent her anger and said, "It's not that I don't want to help my cousin, but my cousin I also know that the Qintian Prison has really decided the date. No matter how much my grandmother loves me, I will never allow my cousin to stay in Fengzhou! My grandmother is also my cousin’s great-aunt, so will she not help my cousin if she can?”

Song Zaishui felt sour after saying this, and immediately let go of her, choking with sobs: "Why am I so miserable?"

"My life is much better than yours, cousin?" Wei Changying sighed and said, "Back then, my grandfather assigned me a pair of jade pendants to Shen Zangfeng. No one has seen me until now. The Shen family uses martial arts to pass down the family line. We The Wei family has been a scholar for generations, and they are extremely inconsistent! When I leave the cabinet next year, I don’t know how I will live... "

Song Zaishui wiped his eyes with a handkerchief and said with a sneer: "I heard from my brothers that Shen Zangfeng is really a good person! If you say that you feel wronged by being his fiancée, then in comparison, I would think that you are Deliberately mocking me!"

Wei Changying looked at Song Zaishui, who immediately became eccentric when he mentioned the prince and the imperial capital, and said with a headache: "Why are you mocking me, cousin? You can tell just by looking at my hard training over the years. I have always been the most carefree. I am afraid of heavy work and hard work. If I wasn’t afraid of being bullied after leaving the cabinet, why would I have to work hard all these years?”

"... This is different." Song Zaishui calmed down a little, and still said coldly, "The Wei family has obviously declined in the past two generations. The prince... Hey! This one is already the third prince of this dynasty. Their biological mothers either died or fell out of favor, and were then abandoned and sent to death! You have also seen the fate of those princes! No matter how bad your life is when you marry Shen Zangfeng, you don't have to worry that he will not survive because he falls out of favor with his father. Bar?"

Wei Changying frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "But the prince's biological mother is now the queen."

"Yes, a daughter from a branch of an aristocratic family was nothing more than a concubine when she entered the palace. In just a few years, she defeated Zhaoyi and became the first of the nine concubines. Even her son was ranked third in the court. The prince was even appointed as the queen the year before last!" Song Zaishui sneered, "Although she is the best in the Sixth Palace, when has she ever had someone who has been favored by me for so long? She is now older and her appearance is not as good as before. Even if I try my best to win over the young beauties... But now I am in dire straits!"

Seeing the look of disapproval on Wei Chief Ying's face, Song Zaishui glanced at her and whispered: "This is a message specially sent to me by my second brother!"

"Then uncle is urging you to return to the imperial capital?" Wei Changying asked in surprise.

Song Zaishui narrowed his eyes: "How do I know what my father is thinking? My eldest brother is not willing to help me. Fortunately, my second brother occasionally sends me some news... Otherwise, when my father wrote a letter saying that he was sick, I would have really rushed there. Here’s the waiter!”

She said solemnly, "So I want to delay it as long as possible. The second brother said that the queen has not seen Jin for three months. The most favored one now is Miao Jieyu who only entered the palace last year. This Miao Jieyu I haven’t given birth yet, but I have raised the young 16th and 17th princes by my side. Who doesn’t know this intention? Chang Ying, please help me. I’m really not willing to do this for a lifetime... Are you willing to go to the Shen family? After twelve years of hard training in martial arts without being bullied by Shen Zangfeng, it is expected that we women should be aware of the helplessness we women have when encountering unkind people. Maybe after today, maybe tomorrow, if the queen falls, the prince is deposed or even sentenced to death, I can not marry. What’s up?”

Wei Changying said in embarrassment: "Of course I want to help you, but you also know that my grandmother loves me, but she is not willing to listen to me in everything. Moreover, if the queen cannot survive for a while, I will not really set the wedding date. There’s a way.”

Song Zaishui let out a breath and said gloomily: "It's up to people to plan things, and it's up to God to make things happen. I won't blame you for things you can't do. How can I be willing to do this if I don't struggle like this?"

He glanced at her again and said, "I would like to seriously advise you, don't rely on your aunt's love for you and make her angry. It's not easy for your aunt. Not to mention the pressure she, the eldest daughter-in-law, had in the Wei family before you were born, I heard Grandma said that my aunt was very strong when she was in her parents' family, but my uncle was always in poor health. When your grandfather returned home due to illness, your uncle was supposed to succeed your grandfather as an official in the court, but now in the imperial capital, it is your second uncle who was born as a concubine. Inheriting the shadow of the eldest son... Now that my great-aunt and great-uncle are still here, your family is living a good life. In the future, unless Chang Feng can do something about it, you, the eldest family member, may be crushed by the second family member who is a concubine! "

Wei Changying smiled bitterly when he heard this and said: "Cousin, you also said that she is my biological mother, why should I be angry with her? I just want to live a better life after the cabinet, but if I follow my mother's advice If I do it, my whole life is still in the hands of others, right? And if my own method works, I don’t have to die. Looking back on the happy days in this life are just a few years before leaving the cabinet- Yes, my idea is ridiculous, but after all, I have been practicing for so many years. How can I know that there is no hope if I don’t give it a try? All in all, I don’t want to keep focusing on other people’s joys and sorrows. "

"Alas!" Song Zaishui sighed distractedly and said, "It's up to you. In short, you should be more considerate to my aunt. Look at me, I am actually suffering from not having the help of my biological mother! Now my father and eldest brother, God knows what he was thinking. He was completely satisfied and wanted me to marry into the royal family. As a son, how could he resist my father and brother? If my mother was still here, how could she be so interested in those women and the prince in the East Palace? He looked so confident that he had already managed to get that trouble back for me! No matter how much my father persisted, it would be better to have my mother help me with my words than to have only one second brother who loves me. The second brother mentioned it once and was scolded by my father. It seems that the family has been tricked recently! If I were a mother, she could always protect me more!"

Speaking of this, Song Zaishui couldn't help but blush.

Wei Changying sighed: "Don't be sad, cousin. I think it's impossible for my uncle not to love my cousin, or there may be something hidden behind it. Besides, my uncle only said that my cousin should go back to the imperial capital, but didn't say anything else. Maybe he wanted my cousin to go. Will the imperial capital dissolve this marriage again?"

"I hope that's what you said." Song Zaishui said calmly, "But the second brother said this directly to my father for me, but my father said that as long as I am still his daughter, I must marry him!"

"..." Wei Changying suddenly ran out of words to persuade. They both thought of sad things, and both of them were so lazy that they didn't want to talk anymore. They just sat down and let the inner room fall into silence. It was not until the end that Mrs. He had to knock on the door: "Miss, cousin, it's time to go and say hello to the old lady. Are the two young ladies going today? If not, the maid will send someone to say hello to the old lady. ?”

Wei Changying responded listlessly: "Go ahead, come in and wait on me!" (To be continued)
