After the banquet, everyone came out in twos and threes. Although King Qin's appearance today shocked people enough, the women in the back house were most interested in the matter of Xiao Yurong, and they kept talking about it along the way.
That night, an even more explosive event happened in Prince Jing's Mansion.
Of course, this is all for later.
After the banquet, Princess Jinyang insisted on sending Su Yan home, but Su Yan couldn't resist her and had to agree. On the way, Su Yan took off the hairpin that the queen gave her: "The queen gave me this hairpin." At that time, my mother stopped me."
Su Yan was playing with the phoenix hairpin, which looked old, because the head of the phoenix hairpin was too big, and it felt a little top-heavy in her hand.
Princess Jinyang nodded and said: "The hairpin was given to her by the emperor when he was engaged to her. She has regarded it as a treasure for so many years, and I don't know why I gave it to you today."
Su Yan felt a little uncomfortable. She was sitting not too far from the emperor, the emperor must have seen her wearing this hairpin, but Su Yan never saw the emperor pay attention to this hairpin from the beginning to the end, probably the emperor had long forgotten the existence of this hairpin right? I sigh for the queen.
Princess Jinyang's sedan chair arrived at Uncle Anjing's mansion before the old lady. Su Yan sent Princess Jinyang away, and stood at the door waiting for the old lady. Su Yan personally helped the old lady get off. The carriage turned a blind eye to Uncle An Jing.
Su Yan could clearly see that during the whole process today, Uncle An Jing didn't say a word, and Uncle An Jing stopped even the old lady from speaking. This made Su Yan's already cold heart a little bit colder.
The old lady took Su Yan's hand distressedly: "It's so cold outside, why don't you go in first?"
"It's almost spring, how cold can it be?" Su Yan said mischievously: "Today, my children and granddaughters haven't been with you all day, isn't it because I'm afraid that you will miss me?"
"I know you are filial." The old lady looked kindly.
Su Xi leaned forward and joked: "Look, once you see Fifth Younger Sister's grandmother, you don't want the two of us. It seems that Fifth Younger Sister is your own. Both of us were picked up later."
Su Jian agreed with a smile, and the old lady laughed and scolded: "You two monkeys, have I treated you badly because of feelings?"
The whole family was very friendly and affectionate, but Uncle An Jing seemed like an outsider, standing there unable to say a word.
"Ahem." Uncle An Jing deliberately coughed twice to hide his discomfort: "Mother, let me take you back to your room."
"No need, just let the child take me back. You can go and do your work." The old lady reacted coldly to Uncle An Jing.
In the past, it was fine for Uncle An Jing to ignore Su Yan, but today on that occasion, Uncle An Jing didn't say a word, which made her very disappointed. What Princess Jing did today is obviously because she didn't pay attention to Uncle Anjing's mansion, so she spoiled the Su family's girl like that! If it wasn't for Su Yan's fate to be backed by the eldest princess of Jinyang, and Prince Jing's son turned to Su Yan again, the Su family might lose all face today!
The old lady sighed in disappointment.
When Su Yan returned to her room, she asked Caixia to lock the phoenix hairpin and other imperial gifts in the cabinet, and after taking a bath, she lay down on the bed with Taosu in her arms.
Taosu knew that it was time to turn off the lights and go to sleep, so she kept breaking free from Su Yan's arms, and ran to the ground with all her strength, her sharp nails scratched the mattress surface.
Su Yan let go of Taosu, and laughed and cursed: "Prodigal cat, this is the newly embroidered mattress for me by Caixia! If she knows that you have broken it, she will definitely scold you."
As soon as Taosu got out of the bondage, she jumped out and squatted on the dressing table, playing with the jewelry that she hadn't put away in the future.
After tidying up the bathroom, Liu Xiang came out with a towel on her arm, and when she saw Su Yan lying on the bed with wet hair, she shouted, "Miss, you haven't wrung your hair yet, so you can't sleep!"
Of course Su Yan knew how the damp and cold air felt when she entered the body, she got up immediately, and sat lazily on the edge of the bed kicking her feet: "I don't know why, I always feel tired, and I want to lie down when I see the bed."
Su Yan was wearing thin pajamas, and her thin ankles dangled back and forth under silk trousers, she was really delicate.
Liu Xiang hurriedly waited for Su Yan to put on the embroidered shoes: "Miss is tired during the day, after a while you lie down and the servant girl will give you a squeeze on your shoulders, so that it can relieve you somewhat."
Looking at the understanding Liu Xiang, Su Yan joked with a smile: "It's a pity that I'm not a man, otherwise I would definitely take you and Cai Xia into the house."
Liu Xiang blushed: "Girl, don't talk nonsense, others will hear what it looks like, get up quickly."
Now Su Yan finally understands why most of the sons will take the big maids around them as housemates, they will meet each other day and night, and the maids are all kind and gentle, so there is no reason for a man to be indifferent.
Su Yan suddenly thought of Chu Yan, and felt that although his family was messed up, it would be good if he didn't have a big maid to serve him, but in an instant, he thought of what happened today. Woolen cloth.
Thinking of these, Su Yan felt as if something was blocked in her heart, and she felt an unspeakable astringency in her heart.
Liu Xiang twisted Su Yan's hair, saw in the mirror that the smile on Su Yan's face gradually solidified, and knew in her heart that it might have something to do with today's incident, so she persuaded: "Girl, don't think about it, my son misses you so much, we all know that , besides, there are not many women in Beijing who can compare to the girl, unless the son has something wrong with his eyes, how can he let the girl fall in love with other girls?"
Su Yan smiled and said: "You are getting more and more courageous, and you even dare to tease the prince behind your back."
Liu Xiang smiled and said, "I can't hear you either. Miss, if you don't tell me, how can you know?" Even so, Liu Xiang couldn't help shrinking her neck when she thought of Chu Yan's usual cold appearance.
I was really afraid that something would happen. As soon as Liu Xiang finished speaking, Chu Yan's voice came in: "Who said this son can't hear you?"
Seeing Chu Yan walk in through the gate, Liu Xiang turned pale with shock, and immediately knelt down: "It's the servant girl who is lying."
Su Yan was talking to Liu Xiang sideways, but when she saw Chu Yan, she immediately turned her back to him and said in a low voice, "Go out first, I'll change clothes."
There was a bead curtain between the two, and Chu Yan could only vaguely see Su Yan sitting in front of the mirror with thin clothes. See no evil, Chu Yan immediately stepped out and waited.
"Girl..." Liu Xiang looked at Su Yan in panic, regretting that she had been so thoughtless in her words just now.
"Don't be afraid, your girl is here." Su Yan patted Liu Xiang's hand, changed into homely clothes, casually tied a simple bun and let Chu Yan in.
She was angry and didn't want to dress up for Chu Yan.
