Chapter 176: A Chance Encounter in the Palace

Duchess Lu Guo was unmoved, and treated Qiu Ruyi as before.

However, when Qiu Ruyi was halfway through eating, he came to his senses.

This is also thanks to Mama Su's teaching during this time, Qiu Ruyi found that most of the meals that her mother-in-law asked people to distribute to her were nourishing the body and conducive to pregnancy, Qiu Ruyi originally thought that she was guessing blindly, but when she saw her mother-in-law looking at her abdomen with a smile at every turn, her eyes seemed to have seen that she was pregnant with a little golden grandson in her womb.

Qiu Ruyi's face suddenly turned red, and he became uncomfortable, and when everyone almost finished eating, Qiu Ruyi also put down the dishes and chopsticks, ending this breakfast moment like sitting on pins and needles.

Duchess Lu Guo glanced at the sun, and hurried her son and daughter-in-law back to change her clothes: "The Queen Mother is usually dealing with political affairs at this time, you don't have to worry, now I am grateful for it, and I am almost in a hurry." ”

Qiu Ruyi retired with An Shicheng and returned to his courtyard, Qiu Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed in his heart: "My in-laws are really different from my biological parents, I only care about accompanying me carefully at today's meal, and the food in my mouth tastes the same as chewing wax, and this little daughter-in-law's life is really not good." ”

This thought only flashed in Qiu Ruyi's heart, and then he changed into new clothes in the service of the girls, and after changing here, he saw An Shicheng also walking over in a new outfit.

After Qiu Ruyi admired in her heart, Fang realized that she did not seem to have fulfilled her obligation to serve her husband as a wife.

is also because she has been the master in her own courtyard for a long time, and she blindly accompanied her in the courtyard of Lu Guogong and his wife, and Qiu Ruyi was relaxed after coming back. I forgot about An Shicheng to the back of my mind, just enjoy the service of all the girls in the room, and the room is full of her girls, and there is only her master in my heart, so I have some thoughts by chance, but it is not good to come forward to remind at this time, after all, there is a Su Mama standing next to her, she doesn't say anything to remind them, if they are strong out of this head, who knows whether it is a blessing or a curse. Anyway, something. With their own young ladies on top, they have nothing to worry about.

Qiu Ruyi glanced at the girls around him inside and out, and then looked at An Shicheng who was standing alone, and his face was a little sneering. smiled: "I've already packed it up." If the husband is right, it is also appropriate. Let's go to the palace right now. ”

An Shicheng nodded and walked out first, and Qiu Ruyi followed behind with everyone. The husband and wife boarded the carriage.

Qiu Ruyi felt that she was a little embarrassed to share a carriage with An Shicheng alone, a lonely man and a widow, so she ordered Xing'er and Chu'er to sit in the carriage together.

An Shicheng didn't care, but Qiu Ruyi felt that his idea was really terrible.

Qiu Ruyi originally wanted to say a few words to An Shicheng, but it was inconvenient for the maid to speak, and she wanted to talk to the maid, but because An Shicheng was beside her, she was uncomfortable, and finally Qiu Ruyi simply kept silent, and of course Xing'er Chu'er couldn't speak, and the car was so quiet that people felt embarrassed.

However, when An Shicheng was approaching the palace, he told Qiu Ruyi: "The Queen Mother is the king, we are the people, no matter how good it is to speak, whether it is hot or not, let's just deal with it indifferently." There is also that Liu Ting, although her actions are hateful, but it also makes you and me a blessing in disguise, and has the glory of being married by the Queen Mother, and there is no need to mention the past. Of course, if she dares to make it difficult for you again, my Lu Guogong Mansion will never give up. ”

Qiu Ruyi said with a smile: "You are too underestimated, I know in my heart, the Queen Mother gave you and me a marriage, it is nothing more than to ask my family to back down and withdraw the paper, which is full of Liu Ting's reputation, I will never mention this matter again if I have no eyes, otherwise it will make the Liu family and the Queen Mother unhappy, and I am simply impatient." ”

An Shicheng stopped talking, but Qiu Ruyi didn't understand why An Shicheng had to tell himself until he entered the palace.

When Qiu Ruyi rushed to the palace, the Queen Mother was still dealing with political affairs, and the two of them were led to a side hall to wait, not wanting to meet An Shiping and Liu Ting here.

This Liu Ting is very arrogant, unwilling to be suppressed, first rejected by the Lu Guogong Mansion that day, and then almost ruined her reputation by Qiu Ruyi, but because of the warning of the Empress Dowager Liu and the emperor, she did not dare to find trouble for this, but she refused to swallow this breath, so she asked the Empress Dowager Liu to be the master and choose a noble family affair for her.

Empress Dowager Liu understood this niece's mind very well, and agreed to it, looking at the entire capital, only An Shiping was of the right age, but there was one point: I heard that there was a concubine in his room who was very popular with him, it is said that if it weren't for the low status of this concubine, maybe he would have been married as a wife, and it was also because he was worried that the concubine would be wronged, An Shiping wanted to marry a lady with a lower status as his wife.

The An family has never been prosperous, and his family only has his only seedling, but he is also a sensible and enterprising person, so his parents turned a blind eye and let him go.

It is precisely because of this that when the daughters of the Liu family married the children of the An family, An Shiping was infatuated with this and was blessed by misfortune, but he became a fish that slipped through the net.

But at this time, the Queen Mother was drawn to marry Liu Ting, and I really don't know if he is a blessing or a curse.

Although Qiu Ruyi didn't know the reason for this, she saw the scene of the two standing side by side in front of her, especially Liu Ting had already dressed up as a woman, so she guessed a little, but she wondered in her heart, her marriage with An Shicheng was enough to catch up, but she didn't expect Liu Ting to marry before her.

Just to compete with outsiders for this idle breath, to make a lifelong event so hasty, may not be harmful to others and oneself.

An Shicheng didn't expect to meet these two here, with a slight smile on his face, and then stepped forward with a smile on his face, thinking about it and feeling inappropriate, he stretched his hand back to Qiu Ruyi.

Qiu Ruyi followed behind An Shicheng step by step, coldly startled, and tentatively put his hand into An Shicheng's big hand, as soon as An Shicheng grasped it, Qiu Ruyi's face turned red, and he lowered his head and followed An Shicheng's steps into the hall.

An Shiping greeted him at this time, saw An Shicheng and his wife walking side by side, and then looked at the hands of the two of them, there was a narrow in his eyes, and said with a smile: "You two are really newlyweds, and they are reluctant to part with such a little effort." ”

When Qiu Ruyi heard this, he shyly withdrew his hand, and An Shicheng took advantage of it and smiled: "What a coincidence, why did you come here today?"

An Shiping is the prince of the county, and according to the system, An Shicheng is to pay homage, but the two have always been commensurate with brothers, and An Shiping has always respected An Shicheng tirelessly and diligently devoted himself to the classics, so when the two get along, An Shiping respects An Shicheng as a brother according to his age.

At this time, An Shiping was still as busy as before, and he was busy returning the courtesy, and said: "Ping couldn't go to drink the wedding wine in person yesterday, and asked my brother and sister-in-law not to be surprised." ”

If it is usual, with the friendship between the two, no matter who gets married, the other party will definitely go to drink the wedding wine and have fun, but An Shiping married Liu Ting, after An Shicheng thought about it, he felt that he was not suitable to show up, so he just sent a congratulatory gift, but the person did not arrive.

Yesterday An Shicheng got married, An Shiping for the face of his county palace, it was not easy to pass, seeing that the two brothers were separated from each other, I didn't expect An Shiping to take the initiative to apologize, An Shicheng also had the heart to reconcile with him, at this time he bowed down and apologized, hurriedly stepped forward to pull to, and the two brothers smiled and walked hand in hand to the palace.

Qiu Ruyi also followed behind and walked in, and when she looked up, she saw Liu Ting with a smile on her face, staring at herself without blinking, Qiu Ruyi couldn't tell what she meant, and the two of them had a holiday, so they simply pretended not to see it, and walked behind An Shicheng calmly.

Instead, An Shiping smiled at Liu Ting and said: "Come over and see Brother Shicheng and sister-in-law, now we are also a family, the past, since then a purchase and sale, don't mention it again." ”

Qiu Ruyi couldn't help but raise his head and glanced back and forth between An Shiping and Liu Ting a few times.

From her point of view, she naturally praised An Shiping in her heart for being open-minded and communicative, and even if the two families can't be close to each other from now on, at least they can get by.

But if she is Liu Ting and her husband does this, she will feel uncomfortable.

Liu Ting wanted to marry An Shicheng and had no choice but to frame herself, and in the end, Liu Ting was in an embarrassing situation, such a farce, Qiu Ruyi believed that An Shiping must be very clear in his heart.

He did this, it seems reasonable in the eyes of outsiders, but it can't help but make Liu Ting embarrassed and difficult to be, Qiu Ruyi thinks that her mind is bigger than Liu Ting, not a star and a half, she still feels that An Shiping is demolishing Liu Ting's stage, and for Liu Ting, I'm afraid it's even more unbearable.

An Shiping is dressed in the prince's clothes, Liu Ting usually goes in and out of the palace frequently, and is very favored by the Queen Mother, there is really no need to wear the layers of heavy and unbearable fateful dresses, it is an honor for others to be able to wear a dress to enter the palace to see the Queen Mother, but for Liu Ting, entering the palace in regular clothes shows her dignity here in the Queen Mother.

Qiu Ruyi guessed that maybe Liu Ting entered the palace today to wait here, waiting for her husband and wife to bow their heads and salute in order to recover the lost field in the past.

Sure enough, when Qiu Ruyi looked again, he saw that Liu Ting's face was black and gray, and he didn't pay attention to An Shiping, let alone look at An Shicheng and his wife, flicked his sleeves, and walked into the hall by himself.

Liu Ting's expression, as early as An Shicheng and his wife's expectations, didn't think so, but An Shiping's face sank slightly, and sneered: "These Liu daughters are so spoiled by the Queen Mother that it is difficult to put them in the eyes of their husbands. ”

An Shicheng was not easy to answer, so he persuaded in a low voice: "This is the palace inside, think twice." ”

An Shiping sighed, glanced at Qiu Ruyi, who was low-eyed behind An Shicheng, and smiled at An Shicheng: "My sister-in-law was also a powerful one back then, and now she ...... Therefore, it may not be a blessing to marry a wife from a lower family. ”

An Shicheng snorted, without saying a word, but Qiu Ruyi listened to it, and felt uncomfortable, after beating this, he never had a good impression of An Shiping.

The four of them didn't wait long before they were announced by Empress Dowager Liu to Cishou Palace, and An Shicheng and the two stepped forward to thank Enping and basically sat there to watch the Empress Dowager and Liu Ting's aunt and nephew talk and laugh cordially. (To be continued......)
