Chapter 689: Bullying
Wu Zhengxiang smiled at the corner of his mouth, and the indulgence and tenderness in his eyes could make people drown in it: "No, when the lady goes out, how can you not be by the side of the husband?
Xu Wanzhen's cheeks were slightly red when he saw it, and she said softly: "Thank you for your husband's care first." ”
Wu Zhengxiang smiled low and said, "I'm caring for myself." If you are bullied, how can I feel good? ”
After speaking, the two hugged each other and fell asleep.
After taking a nap in his arms, Xu Wan's heart was full of sweetness and she felt extremely refreshed.
Because she was going out, she got up and freshened up, and after picking silk, she cleaned her face and put on makeup again, and drew a pair of willow eyebrows that flew obliquely into her sideburns.
I picked out a high-waisted skirt with begonia red moire pattern and put it on, and covered it with a thin jacket with butterflies. The corner of the skirt is a white and flawless mutton fat jade pendant, and the left wrist is still wearing an electric cloud bracelet.
Her hair is dark and long, and she doesn't need to use a wig. Mama Zheng neatly combed her hair in a bun. On the side of the bun is a sky blue gradient sprinkling golden peony silk flower sent by Xu Wenmin last time, a pair of coral beads are tied to the ends of the hair, and the ivory pearl tortoiseshell hair comb is inserted in the center.
Such a dress added a fierce momentum to the elegant and extraordinary Xu Wanzhen.
Wu Zhengxiang looked at her with his chin on the side, and praised: "In this way, those people may not dare to look at you squarely." ”
Xu Wanzhen likes light and simple clothes, and feels that they are comfortable and natural to wear, and rarely wears such gorgeous makeup.
But today, I went to the Anping Marquis Mansion as a guest, just to suppress people with power. If makeup and clothing are a woman's armor, then Xu Wanzhen is already armed to the teeth.
ordered Wen Mulan, Cai Si and Bai Yao followed, and everyone got into the carriage at the Hanging Flower Gate. Caisi took a plain cloud brocade cloak in her hand and prepared it for use.
Wu Zhengxiang got on his horse, followed by several guards. Wu Rui still hid in the shadows as he always did, and did not show up.
The group came out of Mingyifang and walked towards the Anping Marquis Mansion through Yongan Street.
At an inconspicuous corner on the side of the street, a merchant lifted his shirt and wiped his sweat, and looked at the people of the martial arts family. When his eyes came into contact with Wu Zhengxiang, he put down his shirt and casually carried the burden full of needles and threads, and walked in the opposite direction.
With the departure of the merchant, several people from near and far went about their own work. didn't look at the people in the Chung Kok Mansion much.
On the second floor of the teahouse opposite, a man in a pale gray brocade robe stroked the jasper wrench on the thumb of his right hand with his left hand, taking in all of this.
His gaze was withdrawn from the samurai family and glanced at the merchant. When he saw the thin cocoon left by years of sword practice in the palm of the merchant's right hand, he laughed silently.
Xu Wanzhen, who was in the carriage, didn't know all this, but just now, the crimson light of the electric cloud bracelet flashed a few times, and then calmed down.
Stroking her left wrist, Xu Wanzhen secretly thought to herself, who would be unfavorable to her on this broad daylight street? She absolutely trusted this electric cloud bracelet, which was given by a mysterious young man with great magical powers, and saved her life again and again.
Wu Zhengxiang, who was riding on a horse, a warning sign flashed through his heart. Before he could react, he vanished.
His eyes were like lightning, and he quickly swept through the pedestrians on the street, but found nothing unusual.
Who is the hidden person in the shadows? Could it be the crown prince? But there is no reason for this, and what good is it for the prince to take his own life?
Since you can't figure it out, don't think about it anymore. Wu Zhengxiang slowly exhaled a depressed breath, it was better to be cautious and strengthen the monitoring of the prince's side.
When I arrived at the Anping Marquis Mansion, I saw a man dressed as a housekeeper waiting at the corner of the street from afar, and respectfully welcomed the group into the house.
Wu Zhengxiang stayed in the outer courtyard and was received by the little marquis Cheng Jingtong.
Xu Wanzhen, under the leadership of the maid, first went to visit Mrs. Hou Lin Anjia.
……
Lin Anjia quietly listened to Feng Zhu's report and asked, "The military commander is also here?"
Feng Zhu nodded and said, "Yes, madam." ”
Lin Anjia pondered silently for a moment, it seems that the other party is not good. If Hou Ye wants to drag on this matter for a few years, I'm afraid it won't work.
Xu Wanzhen stepped into the flower hall and sat down, Bai Yao and Caisi stood quietly beside her, and Wen Mulan stood on one side. The expression is solemn and the demeanor is dignified.
Lin Anjia entered the flower hall, and when she saw her battle, she couldn't help but beat the drum in her heart. At that moment, he smiled and said, "Mrs. Xu, what kind of wind is this that blew you to our house?"
Xu Wanzhen is a young lady in Zhongguogong, but Lin Anjia is called a lady, which is to recognize her status as a second-class lady. Regardless of their generation, the two only talk about their identities.
Actually, Lin Anjia didn't want to talk to her peers as soon as she came, but when she saw Bai Yao, she immediately changed her mind. Although Bai Yao is just a maid, she is the person in front of the Queen Mother, and Xu Wanzhen's intention to bring her here is unknown.
Instead of humiliating yourself, it is better to simply do it and have fewer twists and turns.
Xu Wanzhen got up slightly, saw the etiquette of the peers, and asked directly: "Mrs. Hou, you have been in charge of the Hou Mansion for many years, do you really not know the purpose of my coming to your mansion?"
Pretending to be stupid, she doesn't have the patience to grind with her.
The smile on Lin Anjia's face froze, and she scolded secretly in her heart, give you face, you are really afraid of you, but at this time, if you pretend to be stupid, it will seem that she is too incompetent.
With a smile, Lin Anjia asked sarcastically, "Dare to ask Mrs. Xu, in what capacity do you manage the affairs of our house?" You are just Tu Manfen's maiden cousin, not an elder or a direct blood relative, this hand is inevitably stretched too long.
Xu Wan really glanced at her with a smile and said, "Just because I am the second-rank lady of the emperor's decree today, because I am the wife of the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Guard, and because of my status in front of the queen mother." Mo said, I'm still a relative of Cousin Manfen, even if it's not, I want to reach out and take care of it, how about it?"
These words can be regarded as quite unreasonable. Lin Anjia's heart choked, and she was almost angry. Xu Wanzhen's face was just not clearly written with the four big words of bullying.
Seeing that she was speechless, Xu Wanzhen said again: "Madam, I know you don't want to see me. Let's open the skylight and say something, you invite Cheng Jinghao out, sign the paperwork here, and I'll leave. ”
Bai Yao took out the document that the Tu family had signed and put it on the table.
With Xu Wanzhen's keen insight, if she wants to, she can make people feel like a spring breeze and talk happily. But when it comes to the ability to anger people, she can also poke every word in people's hearts.
Where is this interaction between noble ladies? Lin Anjia has always been hiding knives and needles in her words, and she was extremely uncomfortable with Xu Wanzhen's style for a while, and her heart was angry and stuffy, but she couldn't speak. [.]
