Xu Wanzhen got up, dried her body and put on her bedclothes, and said with a smile: "It turns out that there is such a reason." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info" turned his head and asked curiously: "In March, Mama Zheng was on the boat with us, how can she know everything about the affairs in Beijing?"

Mama Zheng looked confident and said, "Since I have returned to Beijing, how can I not pay attention to such a major matter? ”

Everyone has their own secrets, Mama Zheng has been in the palace for many years, of course, there are connections she manages, this is her hole card. In this regard, Xu Wanzhen didn't intend to ask, she bowed her head gently, Mama Zheng is loyal, as long as she can use these hole cards and hold them in Mama Zheng's hands, what does it matter?

In the "Wen Han Residence", Tu Manfen sat in front of the bookcase under the lamp, and on the desk was an open book. It seemed that she was reading a book leisurely, but the hands tightly twisted together betrayed the anger in her heart at the moment.

Yinping stood aside in fear, she knew that the eldest lady was in a very bad mood now, for fear that one would be accidentally affected. Although Tu Manfen is not like Tu Manzhen, she will beat and scold the maid to vent her dissatisfaction, but her method of punishing her subordinates makes Yinping shudder when she thinks about it.

Tu Manfen muttered and said, "She Xu Wanzhen has a low status, how can she be able to get Princess Zhaoyang to look at her differently?" After knowing that Xu Wanzhen had won the invitation to the "Peony Flower Club" yesterday, she dealt a big blow to Tu Manfen, who had always been arrogant.

Since it was rumored that this year's "Peony Flower Fair" would be held in the Princess's Mansion, Tu Manfen was determined to win, and with her talent in Beijing, she regarded the invitation as something in her bag. Since she wants to taste flowers and compose poems, how can such a grand event be without her?

I never thought that before she could wait for the invitation, she was preempted by a merchant's daughter who she looked down on, which was really uneasy.

Yesterday, she briefly mentioned a few words, her second sister Tu Manzhen went to make trouble, but even so, it couldn't hinder Xu Wanzhen in the slightest, making it difficult for her to vent her resentment.

Since the Xu family entered Beijing, one by one, Xu Wanzhen is really stronger than her everywhere. What's infuriating is that Xu Wanzhen never showed a trace of competing with her. The hands and feet she moved in secret were dissolved by Xu Wanzhen lightly, and she was still polite when she saw her, like a punch on the cotton, and there was nowhere to do it.

Jealousy slowly precipitated and fermented in her heart, and gradually evolved into a trace of hatred. Tu Manfen's eyes sharpened, Xu Wanzhen, and let you be proud for a few more days, at the "Peony Flower Meeting", I will let you know what is the difference between cloud and mud!

In the early morning of the next day, when the sky was just white, Xu Wanzhen got up and washed. After the morning exercise, I went to ask Mrs. Xu for peace, told me about the events in the princess's mansion yesterday, and talked about my worries and solutions.

Old Madam Xu patted her hand and said, "It's good to really make up your own mind about these things, and if you need my old wife to come forward, just say it." It's just that you have to pay more attention, your daughter's family can't be tired. ”

Feeling her grandmother's love, Xu Wan was warm in her heart, and rubbed on Mrs. Xu's body coquettishly, and said, "Where is grandmother old?" Zhen'er looked at it, more than twenty years younger than Mrs. Lin of 'Changhong Courtyard'. ”

"You monkey, you're talking behind your back. Mrs. Xu scolded with a smile: "Aren't you going to Zhuangzi in the eastern suburbs today, why don't you go to that Zhuangzi soon?" I also know that Zhuangzi is quite a bit far away, so you can take two more people there." ”

"It's really saved, please rest assured grandmother. ”

had breakfast with Mrs. Xu and Xu Wenyu, Xu Wanzhen took Sangzi and Caisi, and brought one more nurse according to Mrs. Xu's instructions, got into the carriage, and set off for Zhuangzi in the eastern suburbs.

Songxi Academy is located in the northern suburbs of Luoyang City, and there are two roads to the eastern suburbs.

One is to go through Luoyang City, the distance is close but it takes time to enter and exit the city gate, and the other is not to enter the city, there is a dirt road outside the city that can accommodate horse-drawn carriages, driving around Luoyang City, although it is farther, but it takes less time to reach it directly.

The road through the city is obviously much more comfortable, but in order to hurry, Xu Wanzhen still instructed Yu Xuemin, who was driving the car, to take the dirt road around the city.

Starting at the time of the hour, the road is potholed and uneven. The bumpy road made Xu Wanzhen feel a little uncomfortable, and Cai Si served her to drink some hot tea before suppressing the churning in her stomach.

About an hour later, Yu Xuemin's voice came from outside the car: "Miss, bear with me, we are almost there!"

Sang Zi opened the curtain of the car and looked out, compared with the northern suburbs, the terrain of the eastern suburbs is more gentle, and on the low gentle slope, there are Zhuangzi, which are self-contained.

"Miss, there are a lot of Zhuangzi miles here!"

Cai Si said softly: "The terrain here is gentle, and there is river irrigation, and the big families in the capital love to buy industries in the eastern suburbs. As the son of the Tu family, she naturally knows the situation in the capital.

Hearing this, Xu Wan really wanted to look out, but suddenly heard a commotion ahead, and the carriage stopped.

Yu Xuemin said: "Miss, there is a fast horse coming ahead, let's take shelter on the side of the road for a while." ”

"Okay, get the car to the side of the road a little more. "Since we want to avoid it, let it be more thorough and save it from making extraneous branches.

Xu Wanzhen sat in the car, only to hear the sound of horses' hooves outside the car, galloped away, and the dust raised penetrated into the curtain of the car, choking the three of them coughing again and again.

Sang Zi took out his handkerchief and waved it repeatedly, trying to drive the dust away, and said: "Who are these people, they don't slow down when they see a carriage on the side of the road, it's really hateful!"

Xu Wan was really about to give the order to continue walking, but she heard a neighing of the horse from "Herod", and the horse that had just passed turned around and stopped next to the carriage.

Immediately, a knight in a blue brocade robe reined in his horse's head, stared at the Tu family's carriage at his side, and asked rudely, "Who is the Tu family in the carriage?"

Liu Qiang, the nurse of the Xu family and the car, greeted him and said without showing weakness: "Who are you? ”

"Presumptuous!" A long entourage behind the knight stepped forward, and the horsewhip in his hand struck Liu Qiang on the head and face.

Liu Qiang is familiar with martial arts, and he never expected this person to be so unreasonable and suddenly make a move, he couldn't dodge it for a while, and blocked it with his hand.

He held back the pain and glared angrily at the long follower. But when he saw the elder laughing, he said, "What do you see, dare to be rude to my family, you deserve it!"

Xu Wanzhen was in the car, although she didn't witness it with her own eyes, she also felt the same way. Who is so arrogant, but with a single sentence, he will enslave and hurt people, and he is simply too deceitful!

Since she came to the capital, she has been cautious, but it doesn't mean that she has to swallow her anger when she is bullied. Sang Zi knew her temperament, busily served her to put on a hat, and helped her out of the carriage.

The blue-robed knight was slightly surprised when he saw a young lady getting down from the carriage, but he smiled lightly in an instant: "Yo, which little lady is this, why have you never seen it?"
