How could Jiang Qizheng and He Shuijin let her go
Even if it wasn't for Jiang Yashuang's fault, they invited people here, but before they even got up Jinxiu Slope, they were angry and left. Just now, Jiang Qizheng used her status as a princess to suppress her two cousins, although the main reason was because she was afraid that they would ruin it. My brother's marriage, but I really hate these two sisters who don't give me face!
The two coaxed and lied to each other and tried their best to persuade him to stay, but Qiu Yilan always refused and insisted on leaving.
... Seeing this situation, coupled with the meaning revealed in the words of Jiang Qiyun and Jiang Qisheng, other ladies in Jinzhao will also feel sorry for themselves: "This one... is actually involved with the children of the Jiang family, and she has secretly gained the Jiang family Acquiesced?"
Now that I have guessed which child of the Jiang family it is, there is nothing unexpected about it - Jiang Qizheng is the most favored among the girls in the Jiang family, and to be able to ask her to be so low-key and cowardly, except for her brother Jiang, who has the deepest relationship with her, Who else could be outside Yashuang
Because of the obvious hostility between Jiang Qizheng and Qiu Yilan, the ladies had decided to keep a distance even if they didn't step on Qiu Yilan. Seeing Jiang Qizheng's eager attitude at this moment, they all felt a little scared: "I thought the Jiang family I invited this person here specifically to look good to her. The Jiang family members who co-authored the book had internal differences, but the fourth family was so supportive of this person... "
Fortunately, they didn't interrupt just now, otherwise they would have pleased Jiang Qiyun and Jiang Qisheng, but offended Jiang Qizheng - this is one of Empress Jiang's most beloved nieces. Wrinkling her mouth casually in front of the empress would be enough to hurt their parents and family. Let's go!
For a moment, these ladies secretly wiped their hands with cold sweat.
At this time, Qiu Yilan had moved to the entrance of the brocade barrier while tugging. Her hibiscus face was stretched tightly, her bright peach blossom eyes were full of mist, and her long eyelashes that were trembling slightly were obviously unable to hold on at any time. Howl and cry loudly - if you really cry, it will be difficult to end the situation!
You ladies, look at Jiang Qizheng and He Shuijin's frowning eyebrows, how can you dare to neglect them? They all came forward to help, especially Zhuang Man, who had a good reason. She pulled Qiu Yilan's sleeve and said: "Both cousin 18 and sister He are not good. I invited you here but you were wronged. You really deserve to be punished - It’s really unreasonable for them to ask you to give them some face, but why don’t you give me some face? Just because I helped you with those two things, okay?”
Zhuang Man had indeed defended Qiu Yilan unequivocally just now. Even though Qiu Yilan was so aggrieved that she was about to cry, she still nodded slightly to her with tears in her eyes: "Thank you!"
"You are being polite when you say this. My father came back from going to court two years ago, but he has been praising you to me!" Seeing her softened tone, Zhuang Man quickly pursued the victory, "So I have wanted to see you for a long time, two years ago Yun Yilou originally thought it was an opportunity, but the eighteenth cousin didn’t know what to do and insisted on not giving me a chance!”
Qiu Yilan looked at Jiang Qizheng while feeling aggrieved, but saw that the future sister-in-law was being humiliated by Zhuang Man. She also had a look of embarrassment on her face, but looked at Zhuang Man with a look of helplessness, and her heart moved slightly: " Didn't this person just mean to be rude to Jiang Qiyun and the others? Isn't he always like this?"
Sure enough, Zhuang Man's two words of advice had no effect, and he suddenly lost his patience and said with his hands on his hips: "It's in vain that I admire you so much after listening to my father's words! Why are you so unsatisfactory? Jiang Fifteen and Jiang Qiyi It's clear that they are deliberately trying to make trouble for you. Now that the eighteenth cousin has driven them away for you, you still want to leave! Apart from embarrassing the eighteenth cousin, what else can you do? You should stay and watch us defeat Shou'an and the others, and then go up to Jinxiu Slope to have a good time together - and listen to Cousin Eighteen's complaint when we go back - whatever you want to do!"
Qiu Yilan almost laughed out loud - Miss Zhuang, how come you know me so well? That’s what I think, okay!
Then there was a hint of shame and hesitation on his face. Seeing this, how could Jiang Qizheng and others not strike while the iron was hot? They crowded around and pulled her back to her seat - after all this effort, even though it was a chilly spring day and everyone was covered in sweat, no one bothered to complain at this moment: it was because of Jiang Qiyun's provocation that Qiu Jinzhu was brought to Qiu Yilan. He pinched her as soon as she came over, so no one even discussed a word about how to deal with the three competitions proposed by Princess Shou'an!
"The first game of pot throwing, the second game of painting, the third game of lyrics, the specific rules will be discussed after we meet." Time was urgent, and Jiang Qizheng ran out of pleasantries and asked directly, "What do you think?"
"Of these three, the last two are weak points for both sides. Even if we come to mention the content of the competition, it is almost the same, so we won't follow them." He Shuijin continued, "As for the specific rules, we will naturally tell them when the time comes. Fight in our favor.”
Jiang Qizheng answered again: "So the question now is, who will go?"
Everyone in Jinzhangli looked at each other for a moment - there was deep resentment between the Queen Mother's Party and the Queen's Party. In the circle of ladies, Princess Shou'an's faction and Jiang Qizheng's faction fought against each other more than once or twice, so the veteran team members all knew the strength of the enemy and ourselves. .
As He Shuijin said, painting and lyrics, two of the three games are events where neither faction has strong players.
Therefore, the selection of candidates is a headache: if you win, it will be a big opportunity to shine, but if you lose, everyone will lose face. Especially Jiang Qizheng's group arrived at the foot of Jinxiu Slope first today! If they give up Jinxiu Slope in despair, the arrogant and proud darlings will find it unbearable just thinking about it!
"Over in Shou'an, Duan Wenji, the niece of Duan Qun, the Minister of Justice, is good at riding and shooting. She is probably the best at throwing pots." After a while of silence, a petite and delicate girl with fair skin and beautiful face said, "There is no one like us here. She is so rude, I think she should change this game, right?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Qizheng glanced at Qiu Yilan. She knew that this would-be sister-in-law had killed many people before, so her strength was definitely not inferior to that of Duan Wenji. She just didn't know how to compete in a pot throwing competition
"It's hard to change." Seeing that Jiang Qizheng didn't speak, He Shuijin replied, "They mentioned the Queen's bow and arrow competition with Concubine Gu, and they asked if there was anyone in the Jiang family now... Qizheng and I My sister tried her best to change it to throwing pots!"
The petite and exquisite girl sighed: "Then this game will definitely not work out."
Qiu Yilan had just noticed Jiang Qizheng's gaze. She didn't want to have a trip and be driven elsewhere, so she didn't mind helping. I have just joined this circle, and I have just been making trouble for a long time and want to leave. Suddenly, my enthusiasm seems very inconsistent. Seeing everyone's disappointment at this moment, he thought it was an opportunity to recommend himself. Unexpectedly, Zhuang Man said: "Then let me do the first round. Although I am not as accustomed to riding and shooting as Duan Wenji. I am used to whipping people with a whip since I was a child. I have the strength to do it." It’s okay to be accurate, but if you set the distance closer when the time comes, it won’t necessarily mean you can’t win.”
... Girl, the reason why you are so good at throwing pots... What a queen!
Qiu Yilan silently swallowed her request for a fight. As a newcomer, even if she felt that she would definitely win against Duan Wenji, Zhuang Man had already said that she might win, so naturally it was not suitable for her to stand up again.
Jiang Qizheng had also heard about Qiu Yilan's strength and was not sure. Seeing that Zhuang Man asked Qiu Yilan to fight, she didn't say anything, so she nodded: "Then I'll leave the first game to you. What about the second and third games?"
"... I think we'll decide when the time comes." There was another moment of silence, and the petite and exquisite girl from before said, "I don't know yet whether the painting will be more of a landscape, a flower or a bird, or a character; the lyrics will be about the same - everyone among us can do these two things. , but I’m not particularly outstanding. Looking at it carefully, I’m better at painting flowers and birds than my sister, and I’m better at painting landscapes with my sister... It’s better to discuss the specific rules with Shou’an and the others before deciding on a person.”
Everyone thinks about it.
Jiang Qizheng nodded to the petite and exquisite girl: "That's what cousin Yixin said." After the discussion, she smiled and said, "Shou'an and the others chose the content of the competition, so I said we have to decide the place - I will decide here. , now that we have discussed it, let someone tell them to come over."
Everyone laughed: "That's how it should be. Don't even ask the carriage to give way to them, let them eat dust all the way!"
"There are curtains and hats! You may not be able to eat the dust, but the journey along the way is enough for them to take a breather." Zhuang Man said gloatingly.
The two sides have inherited the grudges from their fathers. They have been influenced by each other since childhood, and they have cultivated the impression that the other party is not a good person as long as they can remember. The darlings of the Queen's Party are naturally happy to see the other party in distress.
So Jiang Qizheng sent her servants to notify Princess Shou'an and the others to come. Everyone in the Jinzhang was teasing and teasing Princess Shou'an and her party.
It’s just that this relaxed atmosphere disappeared immediately after the arrival of Princess Shou’an and her party—
It was not that Princess Shouan Gu Wegna suddenly invited some powerful foreign aid, but that Jiang Qizheng led her own people, and before the regular taunting battle after meeting Gu Wegna and the others was over, Jinzhangli suddenly Two maids with wry smiles walked in, bowed their knees to Jiang Qizheng, and then said: "Your Highness, the eldest lady sent someone to invite Miss Fifteen, Miss Dou Shi, Miss Dou Shiyi, and Miss Chang Wu to go back. There seems to be something urgent!”
"Your Highness, Miss Seventeen twisted her foot when she got into the car. This is not good. Mother Qian brought her maid to ask Miss He and Miss Cheng Qi to come over and keep her company."
Sensing Jiang Qizheng's furious expression for a moment, but frightened by their master's punishment, the two maids still had to bite the bullet and continue, "And cousin..."
"We have already asked five people to leave, why do you even want to ask cousin Xin to leave?" Jiang Qizheng laughed angrily!
"No..." the maid said tremblingly, "Miss Fifteen saw that my cousin's carriage seemed not to be closed properly, and the lion cat inside... seemed to have escaped..."
"Oops!" The girl surnamed Xin stood up immediately and said anxiously, "Cousin Eighteen, I have to look for it - you know that lion cat is my cousin's darling, so I don't dare to leave it at home when I go out for an outing - I’ll come back as soon as I find you!”
Qiu Yilan said happily: "By the time you find it, the competition will be over by now!" God knows where Jiang Qiyun is hiding him!
Seeing the two young ladies from the Dou family standing up hesitantly, He Shuijin also stood up with a patient look on his face... In the Jinzhang, which had been bustling with people after the arrival of Gu Wanna and his entourage, there was actually a vacant space, and Jiang Qizheng looked ashen!
Compared with her bad mood at the moment, Gu Wanna and others were overjoyed - although they were prepared for the three competitions, they never expected that the internal fighting in the Jiang family would come to light today. When the content of the competition was officially discussed, the people who were most likely to take part were all held back by Jiang Qiyun and Jiang Qisheng - this was simply because they were afraid that they would not be able to make it to Jinxiu Slope today!
Gu Weina smiled happily: "Chunfu, what's the point of comparing this? You should also pack your things and go back with your seventeenth sister. By the way, ask a doctor to see her foot injury. It also shows the deep love between you two sisters, doesn't it?"
She deliberately emphasized the words "deep sisterly love", which was another stimulus for Jiang Qizheng. Jiang Qizheng looked at the empty seats for a moment, gritted her teeth and said: "No need! Since they are all I’ve already ordered someone to accompany me… There’s no need for me to join in the fun!”
"Then you still want to compete?" Gu Weina laughed so much that she pointed at the few people on Jiang Qizheng's side, "The best and most talented people here are gone, leaving you How many people—even if you can win by throwing a pot, why don’t you give up Jinxiu Slope?”
Jiang Qizheng said coldly: "What does this have to do with you?! In a word, do you want to compete? If not, then leave quickly, don't delay our enjoyment of going out for an outing!"
"Then let's compete." Gu Wanna stopped laughing and said leisurely, "Actually, I also know that since you agreed to the competition, even if you are the only one left, you will not leave without breaking your promise... But be honest Say, even if we don’t trade, looking at the deserted look behind you, I feel really—"
"You talk so much nonsense. Are you here to discuss the specific content of the competition or to tell stories?!" Zhuang Man said impatiently, "You are as verbose as a disciplining mother-in-law at a young age. You can't even do that when you are at home. Talking or something!”
Qiu Yilan silently praised her in her heart: Girl, your knife and mouth are so sharp that you can see blood!
