Chapter 106: Flower Viewing Banquet
Jiang Xuanzhen couldn't explain why she gave Qiaofeng Jinqi, and everyone saw that Mrs. Xu was crazy and kept talking to herself in Qiaofeng's arms, and moved the balance of trust to Mrs. Xu's side.
"The slave maid also wants to ask the princess, if it weren't for the use of the slave maid to frame our family's wife, you are a princess, why do you want to reward a slave and maid who is not in harmony with you?" Qiao Feng continued to press.
"Isn't it okay for this princess to look at you?"
Jiang Xuanzhen didn't even believe in herself, not to mention that everyone present didn't know anything about such a thing.
"Actually, this golden bell was given to the slave by the second princess this time to frame my family's wife and wife. In fact, my wife didn't want to see Jiufeng Jinchai at first, but the shop guy had to take it to my family and put it on her head, and shouted loudly that my family Mrs. Shizi looked good to attract everyone's attention. Seeing that everyone looked at her for her short face, my wife wanted to return it to the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper had to accept it, so she said that my wife would wear it again, and if she liked it, she would buy it. Later, my family's wife had obviously returned the Jiufeng Golden Hairpin, but the shopkeeper shouted that the Jiufeng Golden Hairpin was lost. ”
Qiaofeng didn't say the rest of the things, everyone already knew about it, and I have to say that she told everyone what happened in this way at this time, which is more acceptable than the previous argument.
Cui Zhiwei couldn't help but say to Yan Jingnian: "This girl is really not simple. ”
"Definitely. Yan Jingnian sneered, "Otherwise, we wouldn't have played these people, including us, around." ”
Cui Zhiwei followed with a smile, "Mrs. Xu is not simple. ”
Yan Jingnian raised his eyebrows, "Isn't Mrs. Xu mad? Why do you still say that she is not simple?"
"Do you think she's really crazy?" Cui Zhiwei just opened the eyes of Mrs. Xu to look at this person, and found that even if she didn't interfere in this matter, this person still asked her maid to help solve this matter by virtue of her ability to pretend to be crazy and stupid.
It shows that she knows her maid very well, and she also knows that she betrayed her, and she also knows that this maid is not bad in nature, and she will definitely help her at a critical moment, so she will stage such a scene.
I have to say that Mrs. Xu is not ordinary smart, and it can also be seen that she is planning to go out and tear her face with her husband's family, and expose this shady royal secret in this way, and also find a way out for herself in advance.
Although Jiang Xuanzhen did not admit her mistake to Mrs. Xu as agreed, within two days, the matter between her and Xu Jinghang was rumored.
Xingyang Wanjia also seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and within a few days, they sent someone to pick up Mrs. Xu back to Xingyang, and helped Mrs. Xu and Xu Jinghang to handle reconciliation.
After Jiang Xuanzhen returned to the palace, Empress Feng sent someone to reprimand her and punished her for thinking about it behind closed doors. As for her marriage with Xu Jinghang, it was also rejected by Su Zong, and it was not until this matter was gradually forgotten that Su Zong chose a family far away from the capital for her to continue the strings. Of course, that's an afterthought.
Although Jiang Xuanzhen's matter made the royal family lose face, the matter of selecting Chongxi candidates for the three princes and the prince of Qingwang was imminent, and it was still held as scheduled.
It's just that unlike the enthusiasm of the ladies for this kind of banquet in the past, everyone can try not to show it as much as possible, and hide as much as possible, for fear that they will fall into the eyes of Empress Feng.
But there are always people who can't hide, and one of them is Queen Feng's future daughter-in-law, Miss Wednesday of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhou Fengxi.
"Feng Xi, come over quickly, let the palace take a good look. When she arrived, she was called over by Empress Feng.
"Feng Xi has seen the queen mother!" Zhou Fengxi bowed respectfully to Empress Feng.
"You girl," Empress Feng said with a smile, "Every time I see someone like this in front of this palace, how many times have I said it, and those false courtesies in front of this palace are forgiven." ”
"Queen Mother, there should still be a number of courtesies. After Zhou Fengxi finished speaking, he pointed to the nearest seat towards Empress Feng.
"You haven't seen this yet, have you?" When Zhou Fengxi approached, Empress Feng pointed to Cui Zhiwei and introduced her.
To say that the people who can't hide from Queen Feng to treat her differently are not only Zhou Fengxi, but also Cui Zhiwei, who has not returned to Beijing for many years.
She entered the palace early on this day. I haven't seen each other for many years, and I miss each other very much. Their family helped the crown prince Jiang Xuanjun again, and Empress Feng was naturally very close to her. I remember that she liked to eat pastries, and I specially prepared some for her.
During this period, in addition to asking her about what had happened over the years, he also introduced her to several princesses and young ladies of various families. Now that Empress Feng's daughter-in-law is coming, she naturally didn't miss the opportunity to introduce the two of them.
"The monarch and daughter of Anyang County have met a few times, but no one has ever officially introduced the two of us. Speaking of this, Zhou Fengxi smiled at Cui Zhi, "You and I know each other, we will all be in the capital in the future, but we have to move around more." ”
"What Miss Wednesday said is," Cui Zhiwei said with a smile, "we will definitely have a lot of opportunities to meet in the future." "I didn't follow Zhou Fengxi's words to say things like moving around often, how close and close. People pay attention to the magnetic field between people, and people who are close to the magnetic field can easily become friends, and it is good that people with discordant magnetic fields do not become enemies and opponents.
Cui Zhiwei and Zhou Fengxi are not all the way at all, and they are the kind that cannot become friends at all, so they don't plan to be close to her.
Miss Wednesday also has inexplicable hostility towards Cui Zhiwei, but she hides it well.
Cui Zhiwei was not cold to her, she smiled disapprerovantly, and then chatted with Empress Feng.
She was very good at talking, told some anecdotes, and told some things she encountered after leaving Beijing. Since most of these people have not heard of it, everyone listens to it with relish.
"The courtiers never knew how hard the peasants were in farming. They were expecting a good harvest when the weather was going well, thinking they would earn more than the previous year, but they turned out to earn less than the previous year. ”
"This palace is strange, didn't you say that the wind and rain are smooth, and the peasants have a good harvest? Why did they earn less in the end than before?" Not only Empress Feng, but many young ladies present were very strange.
What I want to say is that in order to rejoice the three princes and the prince of Qing, this time, in addition to the young ladies who received the invitations, there were only two slightly older women, Qin Zhaoyi and Princess Qing, who were equivalent to half of the mother of the third prince.
"The queen mother and everyone here think it's strange, right?" Zhou Fengxi smiled, "At first, the courtiers also thought it was strange. But later, when I sent someone to inquire, I found out that those peasants had encountered unscrupulous profiteers. ”
Although Zhou Fengxi did not say it explicitly, Cui Zhiwei faintly felt that this matter was related to their family, who let their family currently do the business of grain.
