Yueniang and Chunni discovered that since the young lady was sent back by the King of Shou that day, the smile on her face had decreased a lot, and she looked a little worried.
Yueniang and Chunni struck each other several times. The young lady's mouth was as tight as a river clam, and no sound could be heard. This was something that had never happened before.
The two people couldn't help but secretly guess what happened between the young lady and the Shou King that day. Could it be that the Shou King bullied the young lady? But the young lady is so smart, how could Prince Shou bully her
The day before the Full Moon Wine, the servants brought over newly made clothes and jewelry. Qingguan looked at them, picked out a few good ones, and ordered Yueniang to deliver them to the second young lady. I kept a few simple things.
Yueniang came back and brought back two purses made by the second lady. Qingguan looked at the dense needlework and lifelike patterns, and just now a bit of joy appeared on her face.
The next day.
The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky.
Several carriages from the Gu Mansion filed out, and Qingguan was arranged to sit in the same carriage as Guan. The moment she was helped into the car, she clearly saw Yueniang's face, which suddenly turned pale.
Today, Mrs. Guan is wearing a rouge-red dotted gold-threaded satin coat and a hollow-dotted emerald crest on her head. She looks delicate and delicate, as light as a chrysanthemum, and has the charm of a mature woman.
No wonder she hooked up with the uncle. How could such a person be compared to the wives and concubines in the uncle’s backyard? If even the second-bedroom people are included, I'm afraid no one can surpass her.
When Guan saw Miss Six looking at her, she smiled and said, "My sister has been in the capital for a few days, so why don't she sit in my sister-in-law's room?"
Qingguan gritted her teeth and said, "Sister-in-law has to take care of my eldest brother and nephew. My sister is afraid of disturbing her rest."
When Guan heard this, he gave her a meaningful look.
From this sentence alone, we can know that this sixth lady is not bad in education, and it seems to be all the credit of Yueniang.
"No need to disturb me, just come, my sister-in-law can't even wait for it."
Qingguan thought about her charming look with Gu Shilang hugging each other, and thought about it for several times, but in the end she didn't dare to agree, so she just smiled faintly.
Guan didn't know what was going on. She looked at Qingguan's dress today and said with a smile: "Why is my sister so dressed up today? Didn't all the rooms in the house have new clothes and new jewelry?"
Qingguan thought about the meaning of these words and carefully replied: "Sister-in-law knows that I am naughty and cannot wear anything good."
Guan's ears were quite shocked when he heard the specious words.
Such a mellow and self-effacing answer would not be surprising if given to an elderly woman; but given to the Sixth Miss who has not yet had her hair, and whose madness will only be cured in a few months, this has to be difficult for her. Marvel.
Qingguan ignored her appraising eyes, smiled, and slowly closed his eyes.
A woman who can get involved with her father-in-law under the eyes of others is very courageous. Although Mr. Guan didn't get along well with her, they were not from the same place, so it was better to keep her distance.
After driving for an hour, they arrived at the Zhenguo Palace.
The gate of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion was wide open, with two majestic stone lions in front of it. Dozens of luxury carriages were parked at the door. Gu's carriage was submerged inside, making it look very inconspicuous.
When Qingguan got out of the car, a maid and a mother-in-law came to greet her and led the people from the Gu family inside.
The Zhenguo Palace is the queen's natal home, so the building is magnificent.
There is no shortage of pavilions, terraces, pavilions, flowers, plants and trees, which are beyond the comparison of ordinary aristocratic homes. Even the princess, who was accustomed to the world, had to sigh, what a wealthy place.
Qingguan had never been to this mansion in his previous life.
The Qian family has always followed the prince, and has an antagonistic relationship with the queen family. Therefore, the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion has never been able to visit his grandfather for medical diagnosis and pulse diagnosis.
She pretended to be curious and looked around, only briefly, and her heart tightened.
Strangely, Concubine Yin and the Queen have been fighting for these years, but the Queen has always had the upper hand. With the unparalleled wealth of the Zhenguo Palace, the strength behind the Queen and King Rui cannot be underestimated.
"Don't look around. You are acting like a little family. It seems that there are no rules in our house." The princess turned around and said rudely to her three daughters.
Only then did Qingguan realize that her two sisters were looking around just like her.
Mrs. Zhou smiled and said: "How come you have learned the rules from my younger siblings these days, but you still look like that? If my younger siblings want it, you can't be soft-hearted. If you leave the house in the future, you will lose the Gu family's face."
When Hua Yang heard this, the muscles on his face trembled. Obviously he was helping her, but in fact he was laughing at her for not raising her three daughters well. She was really a bitch.
"This woman's reputation is built with money and family background. I will go back and prepare their dowries as well as those of the eldest lady, and they will have a good reputation in their husband's family."
The smile on Zhou's face suddenly froze.
Qingguan followed the two of them and looked at Zhou's back with sympathy.
This woman has never taken advantage of the princess, but she was still unwilling to accept it. Now, she has touched on her sore spot, which is really humiliating herself.
Just like the eldest lady, my aunt's dowry is not enough.
"Mom, please don't say a few words. These people coming and going are just a joke." Wu Yanling frowned and whispered.
The two sisters-in-law looked at each other and turned away.
You bitch, you brought up my pain point again. One day I will let you see my methods.
Foolish woman, no matter how good you are, you are still no match for me, Huayang. People like you deserve to have an outside room to disgust you.
Qingguan sneered in her heart, but her eyes fell on Wu Yanling.
In the flower hall, there were bursts of laughter and makeup.
Mrs. Chen, the Duke of Zhenguo, was surrounded by people, smiling so hard that her teeth could not be seen.
The girls of the Gu family came forward, the juniors saluted, and the maids presented full moon gifts with both hands.
"Madam, today is a happy day. There is nothing to offer in the mansion. I have prepared a coral tree as a gift, which is a bit simple."
Mrs. Chen took a look and saw that the coral tree was about three feet high. It was inlaid with many gems. It was dazzling and shining. It was extraordinary at first glance.
It's just that the eldest grandson is full moon, and the Gu family actually gives such a generous gift, which shows that he is a wise man.
The smile in Mrs. Chen's eyes deepened a little. She held Huayang's hand and refused to let go. The two of them were as close as sisters, but the eldest grandmother Zhou was left aside.
Zhou's smeared face looked slightly embarrassed, and the roots behind her ears were burning. I didn't dare to blame Chen in my heart, but I put this debt on Huayang again.
Little did she know that Chen's actions were just to embarrass her. Although Zhou's marriage to Gaofu was not her fault, Chen was such a narrow-minded person.
When Qingguan saw this coral, she thought of the incident between her second sister and Gao Xiaofeng, and knew that the Gu family had spent a lot of money this time.
She listened silently to everyone's chatter, then followed Zhou and others to the side and sat down. Princess Huayang and Wu Yanling were pulled to talk.
Qingguan found an inconspicuous corner and silently looked at the flowers in front of her.
"The British Prince has arrived!" The maid's crisp voice sounded in the flower hall.
Suspicion flashed in Qingguan's eyes.
The British Duke is the natal family of Concubine Yin. The two palaces have always fought in front of each other and stabbed her in the back. Why would she come to have a drink today
While I was thinking about it, I saw Qiu, the British princess, walking in wearing a brand-new coat, with numerous hairpins on her head, her head raised and her chest held high. Behind her was her most beloved daughter Yin Daimei.
What a coincidence. I never thought that we would meet here again. Qingguan slowly lowered his head.
The British Duke's House is very famous in the capital. What makes it famous is not only the birth of a noble concubine in this house, but also the great feat of the British Duke having eight daughters, which is unprecedented and unprecedented.
The British father Yin Jiuling had one wife and six concubines, and his backyard was extremely lively. I don't know which deity I offended. From the main wife to the aunt, every one of them is a daughter.
The British Duke had a gloomy look on his face in those years, and his head was bowed when he saw others, because he did not even have a son behind him.
Later, Qiu became pregnant and was diagnosed with twins six months later. The British public fasted, chanted Buddha and abstained from sex for three months, just to have a son.
Perhaps his sincerity moved God, and Qiu gave birth to a daughter and then a son.
The British father-in-law received his hard-won son and fell to his knees with a plop, crying loudly. The next day, he went to the palace and asked the emperor to make this son the crown prince. Nearly twenty years have passed, and the British father still has only one son.
The Qiu family had meritorious service in giving birth to a son, and their eldest daughter married into Prince Xian's palace as a princess. Therefore, even the British prince had to tolerate the dissatisfaction in the palace.
Qiu's back straightened after giving birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, so she loved her brother and sister to the extreme. Taking a look at the capital, only the Qiu family could do such a thing as obeying the monk's words and leaving their daughter to remarry in her twenties.
Qingguan lowered his head and was immersed in his own world. He never thought that in the center of the flower hall, a fierce battle was going on. When she came back to her senses, the swords and swords between Chen and Qiu had disappeared, and all that was left was the flattery.
"That's Yin Daimei, she's so good-looking."
"Not only is she good-looking, she is also the most famous talented woman in the capital. She knows all kinds of poetry, lyrics and songs, and her literary talent is even praised by the emperor."
"I heard that Concubine Yin loves her niece the most."
"That's natural. Concubine Yin got a good king, raised her as a daughter, and announced her to the palace every three days."
"Oh my god, no wonder Su Ziyu is willing to wait for her. What a good life."
"I heard that Su Ziyu didn't even have a bed warmer in the room because of her. She's in her early twenties. She's... so infatuated!"
The two noble ladies, one red and one green, were holding their handkerchiefs and talking in a low voice. The sound reached Qingguan's ears like a thunderbolt from the sky.
It has been six years since I heard this name. The arrow wound in his heart opened suddenly, and blood seemed to spurt out from it. He was dizzy and in excruciating pain. The soul is in a state of confusion, and the mind does not know where to go. Qingguan clenched her teeth tightly and held on to the handkerchief tightly, the joints of her fingers turning blue.
