Chapter 246: Test with a borrowed knife

Views:

The three of them couldn't guess Jiang Qijun's purpose, but in the evening, Nijin came to visit on the order of the queen. When asking them if they needed anything, she revealed: "The queen summoned Princess Qi before, partly because she heard about Qi. The princess humiliated King Qi in public for some trivial matter, so she wanted to warn the princess not to do it again! The second thing was that before Princess Qi's audience, she heard that Princess Changping sent a message to the two of them, and asked Princess Qi to come and say a few words to Miss Xin. I also went with Miss Xin by the way, but as soon as the princess arrived... "

"I wonder why she was so resentful when she came here?" Xin Fubing snorted, "It's as if I robbed her of something!"

Before she finished speaking, the maid behind her quickly pulled her sleeve to remind her that Ni Jin was still there!

However, Xin Fubing ignored it and continued, "According to me, this fifteenth cousin must not go to Gu Wanna's birthday party! If this is happening in our house today, it will be embarrassing if word spreads. , if we do it again in front of Gu Wanna, how can the queen's face be bright? I would rather just the three of us go there - anyway, there are only four of us, including the pregnant Tang Xinyao, Gu Wanna, Tang Xinqiong, and Princess Chang Ping. , only one more than us! Why can’t the three of us deal with them?”

She openly expressed her displeasure with Jiang Qiyun, which made the servants behind her anxious, fearing that this would reach the Queen's ears and cause her dissatisfaction.

However, both Qiu Yilan and Zhuang Man were very calm - the latter felt that she would say this even if Xin Fubing didn't say it; the former knew from Jiang Yashuang that Empress Jiang didn't like Jiang Qiyun's niece in the first place. It would be nice to trick her. Why would she be angry because Xin Fubing hates her

"Simply Xin Fubing and Jiang Qiyun, the queen will definitely favor Xin Fubing more! What's more, King Qi has been given up, and the seventh prince is now the queen's favorite. Now that Xin Fubing has openly expressed her dissatisfaction with Jiang Qiyun, the queen will not only not be angry, but On the contrary, he will be satisfied with her not hiding anything from him - Ni Jin is the queen's person, and what Xin Fubing said in front of her is equivalent to saying it to the queen? "

Qiu Yilan sneered in her heart, "And how could the Queen not know that with Jiang Qiyun's temper, how could she hold back her jealous rage and guide Xin Fubing? Plus, I, a person who already had a grudge against Jiang Qiyun, would be weird if we didn't start a quarrel here. ! Maybe the queen wants to use Jiang Qiyun to observe Xin Fubing? "

Xin Fubing was hurt in love, and she gave in to a marriage she was not satisfied with under pressure. Her mood was very unstable. Under such circumstances, being provoked and insulted by Jiang Qiyun, a master who does not consider the mood of others and is self-centered, can best expose her true temperament.

And the queen can take the opportunity to understand the true face of this prospective daughter-in-law.

With the Xin family's current power, the queen would not worry about her daughter-in-law taking over her power in the future. However, as the wife of the seventh prince, Xin Fubing's future status is also more important - although she is the queen's niece, she has rarely seen the queen. She will be entrusted with an important task. How can the queen not weigh her in person? Ichiban

"But just now Jiang Qiyun mostly came for me, and Zhuang Man rushed over to disturb the situation. I don't know if the queen's goal was achieved or not?" Qiu Yilan thought about it, and Xin Fubing was obviously really angry just now. , but it hasn’t reached the point of losing control, but I don’t know if this level can satisfy Queen Jiang

But then I thought, "This is the queen's business anyway, why should I worry about it?"

In the scene where she was thinking, Ni Jin did not show off her face because of Xin Fubing's displeasure with Jiang Qiyun. Instead, she comforted her with a smile: "My lady and the Nineteenth Young Madam are both suffering today. Your Majesty already knows. Just now, Princess Qi was tortured. The empress called her over, but she was scolded very much. The maid whispered: The princess staggered when she left, and the tears on her face were difficult to wipe off... I think she has incurred the wrath of the empress! "

As Ni Jin, he openly described Jiang Qiyun's embarrassment, which can be said to be too naked. Everyone naturally heard it, smiled knowingly, and thought: "Jiang Qiyun's temper is sure to offend wherever he goes. Even the Queen's attendants don't want to see her, which means that the Prince of Qi she married has a weak temperament. If it were a prince with a little self-respect, he would have been in trouble long ago! "

When Xin Fubing heard the satisfactory answer, she smiled slightly, but immediately turned worried again: "Did your Majesty become so angry today? Anger can harm your body. Will your Majesty be okay now?"

Qiu Yilan mentally praised her for her smooth switching of expressions: "Whether this cousin is still thinking about Oubicheng or not, she has obviously entered into the role of future princess-in-law!"

Thinking this in my heart, I also followed up with concern on my lips: "Your Majesty has so many things to do every day, but she still has to worry about us. It's really our fault!"

Zhuang Man was always outspoken: "Jiang Qiyun succeeds more than she does failure. Since she came out of the cabinet, she has only caused trouble for the empress. She has never done anything to bring honor to her! I think I will stop her from being banned from Prince Qi's Mansion, otherwise nothing good will happen if she is released!" "

Ni Jin was already ready to answer Xin Fubing and Qiu Yilan's words. When she heard Zhuang Man's straightforward shouting, her smile froze for a while before she realized what she was saying. She said in a dumbfounded voice: "What you said, I will report it to you if I have the chance." The Queen’s…”

She wants to see Jiang Qiyun when you are the queen? But even if we don’t take into account Qin Guogong’s principle of giving preferential treatment to the big house for decades, just take into account the quarrel between the queen and the queen mother - Princess Yan, who entered the house less than a year ago, is pregnant and has a reputation for virtuousness. Broadcast, and where is Princess Qi? Neither! She keeps bullying King Qi... If she is grounded again, will Queen Jiang still be able to mention the word "daughter-in-law" in front of Queen Mother Gu in the future

Afraid that Zhuang Man would unscrupulously say something even more unanswerable, Ni Jin hurriedly left, "If the young lady and the two young ladies don't have any other instructions, will the maid go back to report to the empress first?"

After she left, Zhuang Man asked Qiu Yilan: "I heard that at the family banquet yesterday, Duke Qin got drunk and was thought to be in a coma?"

Qiu Yilan was slightly surprised: "You didn't say anything about Jiang Qijun's departure just now. I thought the outside world didn't know yet!"

"How is that possible?" Zhuang Man said with a smile, "Don't think about how many people are staring at Qin Guogong now. Every time the old man coughs, someone will try their best to find out! Not to mention fainting in front of so many people?"

Xin Fubing was even more surprised than Qiu Yilan: "Is there such a thing?! What about the second uncle now?"

Zhuang Man was surprised: "You don't know? You should have gone to the family dinner last night, right?"

"She went back midway, so she didn't see her." Qiu Yilan explained, "I also heard from your nineteenth cousin later... I don't know the details. After all, we came to the palace this morning."

"Is it important, second uncle?" Xin Fubing asked worriedly. Duke Qin and Queen Jiang are two indispensable people in the Queen's party. If any one of them has a problem, it may lead to annihilation for the people of this party. .

Zhuang Man didn't care: "I'm just drunk. I must have a headache now, right? If something happened, could you two come to the palace to stay for a while? Besides, didn't the queen have the leisure to summon her here today? Jiang Qiyun?”

Xin Fubing thought about it and breathed a sigh of relief: "Nothing will happen to my second uncle."

"We can't help with this matter." Zhuang Man wasn't very interested in things that she couldn't intervene in, and she didn't think Qin Guogong was really ill, so she changed the subject, "I've heard some rumors in the past two days. , seems to be about the eighth cousin sister-in-law?”

Mentioning this, Qiu Yilan's face suddenly darkened: "Those villains will not end well sooner or later!"

"Is it true?" Zhuang Man asked, "What exactly is going on? I heard that my eighth cousin sister-in-law is sick?"

Although Xin Fubing often visited the Jibei Marquis Mansion during these days, she was too busy with her own affairs, let alone taking care of other people, so she also asked: "Eighth cousin sister-in-law is sick? When did it happen? I didn't pay attention. !”

"She fell ill a few days ago. Thanks to my grandmother's kindness, she took her to live in her yard. Not only did she not know what she would be like if she was raped by those people in myna's yard!" Qiu Yilan took a sip of tea to calm down. Huo said, "Even if this is the case, Bago still refuses to let her go!"

"Eighth Cousin values sex over virtue. Eighth Cousin is good at everything, and that's why he's at a loss!" Zhuang Man sighed, "I guess he was instigated by some new favorite and old love... Didn't Nineteenth Cousin persuade him?"

Qiu Yilan said: "You hit the nail on the head, and it's all the truth! Why didn't Nineteenth persuade him? After all, I've been talking to him for so many days, but he just didn't listen. After all, he is the brother, and Nineteenth President can't beat him!" "

"It's a pity that my aunt is not in Beijing." Zhuang Man said regretfully, "My aunt hates concubines and the like the most. If she wants to be in Beijing, if Bage dares to disrespect his wife, my aunt will definitely not be able to spare him!"

Xin Fubing also said: "Fourth aunt really hates concubines and the like. It's a pity that she has to stay in northern Xinjiang to take care of fourth uncle. She shouldn't have time to come back for the time being." That was the one who drove away Jiang Yazhu's biological mother twice.

Qiu Yilan was no longer in the mood to think about this kind of distant water that was difficult to quench her thirst. She just said lightly: "Now I just hope that the eighth sister-in-law can take good care of her health. We can't put in the rest."

"It's a pity that the eighth sister-in-law is sick. Otherwise, if I invite her to come to the palace to stay for a while, I can also express my grievances in front of the Queen." Zhuang Man sighed, sick people are not allowed to enter the palace. Even if Empress Jiang brought several female relatives from her natal family to live in the palace for a short while, and she didn't even have to say hello to anyone, such a taboo would still be difficult to break.

"What's the use of telling the queen?! It's impossible for the queen not to know about this, and it's not necessarily like Nineteenth said she was too busy to ask." Qiu Yilan smiled on her face, but she was very worried in her heart. She disagreed and said, "I think it's because the fight for the heir is in full swing. The queen doesn't want anything to happen to her natal family and the Queen Mother can take advantage of it, so she simply pretends to be confused to avoid making the matter bigger. After all, the eighth sister-in-law is well-known and comes from a famous family. , if there is no definite crime, she will be divorced. How can the Queen Mother's Party not make a fuss about it? Moreover, Jiang Ba is very willful, and the Queen's personal intervention may make him even more stubborn and give the Queen Mother's Party a bigger excuse."

"And this is only one of the reasons. Another reason is that both Mrs. Tao and Queen Jiang value Jiang Tianchi who holds military power very much, so they are very reluctant to offend his eldest son!"

She remembered very clearly that when Mrs. Tao persuaded her to persuade Qiu Feng to get married as soon as possible so that Jiang Qizheng would give up, Mrs. Tao said that Mrs. Tao didn't think there was anything wrong with Qiu Feng being her grandson-in-law. No, it's just because Jiang Qizheng is not her biological granddaughter, she is afraid of offending her son and wife, so she wants to sabotage her - this is just a granddaughter, let alone a grandson

Jiang Yadan is obviously a face-controller. He wants to choose his own wife, but he will never choose Mrs. Tao, so this marriage is probably made by the elders, and it must have a lot to do with Mrs. Tao. After all, Mrs. Tao Tao's entry into the Jiang family symbolizes the second marriage between Jiang and Tao.

Now Jiang Yadan has decided to abandon his first wife and marry someone else. If the elders who objected were the same elders who asked him to marry the younger Tao family in the first place, he would not only not feel guilty, but also feel very angry: "You would have forced me to marry someone I don't like earlier." Man, now you want me to be responsible to the end, how can it be that easy!”

Based on Qiu Yilan's understanding of this uncle, he must have this idea!

"Nineteen is the most favored by the Queen among the children of the Jiang family. Naturally, she was unwilling to say anything that would damage the Queen's positive image, so she found an explanation because the Queen was busy with her affairs." Qiu Yilan sneered secretly, "But, this matter, If you think about it carefully, you will understand... How will the eighth sister-in-law survive this crisis? It is better to rely on the queen than on my brother and Ling Zui! "

However, no matter how much she cared about little Mrs. Tao, now that she was in the palace, she could only focus on the immediate matter - Gu Grace's birthday, which was coming up in the blink of an eye.
