"What did you say?" Yun Fenghuang struggled a few times but couldn't get it out. Instead, he felt his thumb gently rubbing his skin on his wrist. He became furious, slapped her back and sneered, "You said I agreed to my oath. I regretted having no children and no grandchildren, and came to beg him to let me go? No, Chao Jingyou made a special trip to Xie's Mansion to taunt me, but it was still not enough to vent the grievances of that wretched maid who had been suppressed by him all those years. Come into the palace to find a place for her?!"
Qi Jiulu wanted to hide that time, but in the middle of his evasive action, he saw her face full of anger, and his heart softened. Dong stopped consciously and took the beating again. Fang frowned and said, "Chao Jingyou went to Xie Mansion to trouble me. ?”
When he mentioned his newlywed wife, his tone was cold and straightforward, without the slightest trace of affection. Yun Fenghuang noticed it, sneered in his heart, and said coldly: "That wretched servant is so jealous of him. He never keeps it a secret. Now that he has the opportunity to fall into trouble, How can I let it go?! Why am I pretending to be stupid!"
"He doesn't like her either..." Qi Jiulu went to explain, but was interrupted as soon as he started: "I said that in front of him. In front of that bitch, I'm afraid I'll criticize him for all kinds of things." Do you want to please her? I haven’t seen you for three years, Qi Jiulu, I have become more capable, and I am getting better and better at coaxing people... "
Qi Jiulu coughed dryly and said warmly: "Does he hope that his ability to coax people will really improve? If he doesn't ask for help, he can coax me and give him a chance to explain."
Yunfeng Huanghan said in a cold voice: "As things turned out, I thought he would believe me? Why should he believe me!"
"Ren Yungui!" Gong Xiangxiao, who was watching, repeatedly told him that it was something between his childhood sweethearts. As an outsider, especially someone who had tried to have something with Yun Fenghuang, he should shut up. exist.
But no!
He really felt that he couldn't see what was going on. "If Brother Xinyun really didn't care about me, why would the newlywed Yaner come all the way from the north to the Imperial Capital? Moreover, Brother Xinyun's words were not what he insisted on obtaining. , Yun refers to the beauty of bamboo skin, the bamboo in the noble lady’s name is bamboo field... What is the meaning of the word "Xin Yun", the noble Bingxue is smart, how can you not know?"
Yun Fenghuang sneered and glanced at him sideways: "I know, of course I know! I am not talented, and I was praised by the teacher when I was young. Xinyun, my heart cares about the beauty of bamboo skin, that means that bastard is wrong. Don’t you forget about the beauty of your body? But I am already a concubine in the palace, how can I be worthy of it?”
Gong Xiangxiao: "!!!"
He tried to help again, "It is said that Brother Xinyun Ruming's wife is also very beautiful. In terms of color, she may not be in the realm of nobles. If Brother Xinyun is not a beauty, how could he..."
"The prince is not yet married, and he doesn't look like an unscrupulous person who would pry into Didong people's wives." It turned out that it was good that he didn't say that, but when he said that, Yun Fenghuang became even more angry and glared at Qi Jiulu, "Since So, how does the prince know that that humble maid Shumei is very beautiful?!"
She quickly came to a conclusion, "Is it true that I was very proud of marrying that bitch by mistake and was too showy, then the prince would know about it! No, no?! Counting the confinement period, I have only been in the imperial capital for a few days, and I... I was really wrong about that lowly maid, Qi Jiulu, who is so affectionate and loyal! I couldn’t help but praise her when we first arrived in the first few days! Could it be that I was wrong about her when he and I had not yet broken off the engagement... "
"It's nothing!" Qi Jiulu looked at the prince with accusing eyes, his eyes clearly written "He treats the prince with sincerity, why does the prince want to harm him like that?" "He has never mentioned Chao Jingyou in front of anyone, let alone Not to mention how beautiful she is, how can she compare to me in terms of beauty, talent, and virtue?"
Seeing that Yun Fenghuang was unmoved, he sighed and said softly, "In his opinion, there is no one more virtuous and beautiful than me in Didong that day!"
Those words he said were categorical and natural, but Gong Xiangxiao was stunned and dumbfounded. He retreated to the corner silently for a long time, thinking that this prince, who is alone and alone, doesn't understand our childhood sweetheart... Just like Yun Fenghuang, who has nothing but beauty, and thinks at every turn. The master who murdered his lover, was Qi Jiulu so blind that he could associate words like "virtuous and virtuous" with her
My conscience doesn’t hurt...
It turned out that whether Bu Fu was delivering the message this time or leading the way that time, with the dignity of Gong Xiangxiao's heir apparent, he didn't even bother to go there in person.
But he insisted on taking action. The reason why he did this was not only to get closer to Qi Jiulu, but also because he was curious about Yun Fenghuang, a woman who frankly said "Is my body so good in sleeping clothes?" The family has nothing to do with virtue and virtue, so how can he make Qi Jiulu miss him so much after the marriage, and think about rekindling their relationship even at the risk of Tiandong's disapproval
... Now he sees, well, not to mention whether Yun Fenghuang's legs are good or not, but Qi Jiulu is really not up to par... Why should a man have no wife? Yes, I already have a wife, why should I beg my former lover to be so arrogant? He has simply lost the face of other dignified men...
Gong Xiangxiao was thinking in confusion when he heard Yun Fenghuang sneer and say: "You don't need me to praise him to know how virtuous and handsome he is! As for Buluo, there are those kind of baseless people in that day in the east. Let's go." The jade is soft and the flowers are soft, but I want to be kissed and warmed by that humble maid!"
"... He will reject me if he marries her." Qi Jiulu was silent for a while, and said slowly, "Aunt Jiang told him that I was sent to the palace by Duke Yi, but he came to the imperial capital not from the regent's palace. Way. To prevent Concubine Yun Shu and others from suspecting that I have an affair with the Regent's Palace, he can marry Chao Jingyou, who is at odds with me, to show that after we break off the engagement, we will no longer have anything to do with him, or even turn against him!"
In the first generation of the Qi family, there was a legitimate daughter who married into the Jiang family, so there was some kind of twisted relationship. Before the two families got engaged, Qi Jiulu refused to call Jiang family his aunt.
When mentioning his mother, Yun Fenghuang, who was originally furious, fell silent and said calmly: "His mother told me? His aunt came into the palace two months ago and said that she didn't dare to tell her about that. Unexpectedly She already knows."
In fact, she knew that Xie could hide such a big thing from Jiang if she didn't confess to Jiang. Jiang was so meticulous in doing things. Even if she knew that Xie was not a mean person, she would not do anything to take advantage of her brother and sister-in-law. She was given benefits but treated her brother and sister-in-law's only legitimate daughter poorly, but it was absolutely wrong to let her daughter bring Nianxuan all the way to the Imperial Capital to live with Lidong.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of transferring the dowry to the Imperial Capital, many cronies were placed in those shops.
Could those people be inquiring about Yunju's family every now and then and reporting this to the mistress
I didn't expect Jiang to receive the news so early. Calculating the time, I realized that when I was learning the rules outside the palace, my mother already knew about it.
... I don’t know how sad she was when she heard the news
Thinking of the scene when Xie Fenghuan's accident happened, when Jiang held herself and cried heartbreakingly, saying that she would have that daughter from now on... Yun Fenghuang pinched his palms hard, held back the tears, and said coldly, "Just deny me. We have no relationship with him a long time ago, why is she telling me all this?"
Qi Jiulu looked at her and said, "If we have no relationship with him, why should I hate him so much for marrying Chao Jingyou?"
Yun Fenghuang sneered: "Isn't it okay for him to look after that cheap maid in Buling?"
"..." Qi Jiulu didn't dare to quarrel with her, thinking that it would be wrong to talk too much, so he decided to just get to the point. Yun Fenghuang was willing to see him tomorrow night just to say no to that matter. It was always right to say that, "He There is a reason for marrying her. My sister's death is related to the Chao family."
Yun Fenghuang glanced at him and said uninterestedly: "That's it?"
"I know?" Qi Jiulu was startled and said, "Then how about I didn't take Chao Jingyou when I left Beidi?"
That’s not Yun Fenghuang!
His ex-fiancée had always wanted to retaliate for her grievances since she was a child, and she had always preferred him to betray the Tiandong people rather than the Tiandong people to betray him. When Xie Fenghuan Hongxing cheated on her, the entire Xie family was implicated in the disgraceful situation. Yun Fenghuang's own experience was Not to mention...according to her nature, it's not surprising that the entire Chao family was cramped and skinned, but she came to the Imperial Capital quietly
Yun Fenghuang sneered when he heard this: "Then what do I think he did to ask me to swear not to marry anyone but Chao Jingyou?!"
Qi Jiulu said sadly: "That's it! He just said that I don't like her..."
"What?!" Yun Fenghuang, who had calmed down just now, immediately became angry again, "If only he didn't like her and her family had a quarrel with his sister, I would have planned to marry her, right?! My that Bastard! How did you promise to promise him so much in the first place? It turns out that it was only three years ago, and I completely forgot about it! I would rather risk the oath of annihilating my descendants and beg to marry her! I... I... "
In the middle of her attack, she suddenly couldn't bear it anymore. Tears fell one after another and she choked, "Why do I have the dignity to come to see him!!!"
Qi Jiulu was silent for a while and said softly: "After he returned from Kongquepo, he was imprisoned in the ancestral hall for half a year. His father was very cruel and said that he would not be allowed to come out for a month if he did not admit his mistake. At that time, he thought that I was no longer in Beidi. What did he want to go out for? He simply lived his whole life in the ancestral hall, but he was also pure. But half a year later, Aunt Jiang asked someone to send him a message, saying that the moon is long, and the reason why he broke off the engagement in the first place was to return to his roots. In the end, he will be the eldest son and cannot be the master of the Qi family. He is still young to control me, so it is better to endure the temporary anger and pretend to follow the clan until the power is in control. Whoever he wants to marry will have no chance of keeping their mouths shut. ?!”
Those words convinced Qi Jiulu. He pretended to have figured it out, poured tea for the Qi family head, Chen family and others to admit his mistake, and gained their trust with sweet words. It turned out that the two generations of the Qi family had little income, and Qi Jiulu's two younger brothers were not of much use. His status in the clan was stable. Even if Yun Fenghuang caused a lot of trouble, it was not enough for a young man to be trapped by love for a while. strange.
Therefore, after changing his attitude, he immediately restored his previous status and treatment, and began to actively seize power.
However, just when he had gained a little, the head of the Qi family mentioned his marriage again, and that time Chen finally got his wish.
There are only a few families in Beidi who are qualified to match the Qi family. Of course, Xie Fenghuan's incident will bear the brunt of the impact on the Xie family's family, and the second one will be on the Jiang family's nieces, because it is known that she was not raised by the Jiang family. And the Jiang family naturally inherited the Jiang family’s tutoring.
Excluding the girls from the Xie family and the Jiang family, although there is only one Chao family to choose from, Yun Fenghuang was too popular in the north before and was recognized as both talented and beautiful, virtuous and virtuous... What is her nature like? Anyway, something happened to Xie Fenghuan Everyone outside the country thought so.
At that time, the only person who was qualified to compare with her was Chao Jingyou.
Mrs. Chen took advantage of the situation and said to the elders in the clan: "It is not his family's fault to break away from the engagement. How can his son be weaker than the woman from a family who does not abide by the rules of women?! Otherwise, if the news spreads, it will be impossible for his son to be excepted." Xie’s daughter can’t marry a good one!”
Those words persuaded the Qi family in the east, because they knew that Qi Jiulu didn't like Chao Jingyou, and even because of Yun Fenghuang's domineering attitude, he didn't treat the entire Chao family lightly. It wasn't obvious that he disliked her, but he was definitely not close to her. Mrs. Chen was worried that he would go wrong with the marriage, so she cut the knot quickly and exchanged the marriage certificates. Then she called her son to inform him.
Yun Fenghuang's face fell like water when he heard this, but he sneered in his heart. The more Chen did that, the more Qi Jiulu hated Chao Jingyou, and even he no longer had any affection for Chen's own mother... Although before When they were in the North, Yun Fenghuang teamed up with Jiang's mother and daughter, often driving a wedge between them.
But that time it can be said that Chen did it himself.
"If it were different in the past, he would probably make a big fuss and threaten death." When Qi Jiulu said that, his tone was calm, but there was a deep chill in his eyes, "But he had already done that back then if he didn't break off the engagement. But it turned out to be useless. So that time, he decided to listen to Aunt Jiang."
He accepted the marriage calmly, at least on the surface.
Then he proposed Bei's request to become an official in the imperial capital.
Yun Fenghuang frowned: "Will my family agree?"
"Why don't you agree?" Qi Jiulu smiled strangely, "I know that the elder is very like his father. Will they really agree to hand over the marriage of his eldest son just because of a few words from a woman of the Chen family?"
Yun Fenghuang's eyelids twitched. She always felt that some answer was about to come out, but it was a little bit off, so that her heartbeat gradually accelerated. She licked her lips and asked in a deep voice: "What?"
Qi Jiulu was about to answer, but when he saw her action, he couldn't help but stare for a moment, and finally turned to look at Gong Xiangxiao who was listening attentively: "Your Majesty, is there any water?"
