In Yunshui Xuan, the play was also sung to the end.

Zhou and Wang ate peanuts and talked together, while the little maid who was waiting came over and whispered something in Wang's ear, Wang's face changed, and asked, "Where is Miss now?" ”

The little maid said: "Several sons and gentlemen have dispersed, and most of the ladies have returned to Yunshuixuan." ”

As soon as the little maid raised her eyes, she saw Zhu Jin walking this way, and hurriedly said, "Miss is back." ”

Wang's eyes glanced over and saw Zhu Ying coming over with a hood, she couldn't see anything from the outside, and she waved at her daughter.

Zhu Ji walked over quickly, saluted, and his hand was held by Wang, and Wang's anxious voice was in his ears.

"You kid, where is it burning?"

Zhu Ying was afraid that her mother would be worried, so she hurriedly took off her hood, showed her burned hair to Wang, and said softly: "It's just a burn, mother doesn't have to worry, but she took care of me late, and my arm was burned by carbon." ”

Only then did Wang put his mind at ease, and complained in his mouth: "You are such a big person, you don't use your brains to do things, fortunately, you will be fine late and evening, if something happens, see how you explain to your cousin!" ”

Zhou on the side was relieved: "Don't worry, cousin, I have already asked the female gentleman to take a look, and the injury is not serious, but it is injured in the arm, and I have to suffer some crimes." ”

Wang nodded and sighed.

After the play was over, the people were almost scattered, and the Wang family took Zhu Yu back to the house.

The Wang family and Zhu Ying are living in Xie Mansion, and the Zhu family of this generation plans to enter the office, so let her come to Yunfu to set up a property first, she has always been cautious in doing things, and when she returned to the house, she carefully asked her daughter what happened today.

Zhu Yu told everything she saw.

Speaking of Chu Shaoyuan, there was a slight doubt in her eyes, "Mother, the third prince is obviously very good with Wanzhao, he doesn't even dislike the leftover cheese from Wanzhao, just like a family, but just now in the warm pavilion, Wanzhao was so strict, but he didn't even look at it, so he scolded Wanzhao back......"

Wang's ears have another meaning, although the third prince has been raised in Xiafu since he was a child, but the people in Xiafu may not really treat him as a family, especially children, between concubines, there is more jealousy, and good feelings will not be so good as this.

And the matter of going to Xia Chanyi today is evil enough, one is that a man entered the house after getting drunk, and the other is an accident in which the subordinate accidentally threw a charcoal basin at her, and there seems to be a pair of hands controlling it.

Wang turned his head and thought that his daughter was also implicated, and then heard his daughter say that the third prince scolded people with a cold face later, and couldn't help but be shocked, and advised: "No one is allowed to say anything about this matter, especially if the third prince is very close to the evening photo, no one can tell him." ”

Wang thought for a while, and simply said: "You will have less contact with Wanzhao in the future, and the third prince is too, before the situation is clear, as long as there is a party where he is, you can't go." ”

Zhu Yu's heart jumped, and he looked at Wang and wondered: "Mother, Wanzhao didn't do anything wrong, and we are already close to each other, why can't I be friends with Wanzhao?" ”

Wang tapped her forehead, "You stupid girl, it's not Wanzhao's fault in this matter, it's the third prince's fault, otherwise why would he alienate Wanzhao today?" And you are in the warm pavilion, there are so many young ladies from the family, why didn't he ask others to roll the dice, but chose you? ”

A trace of blush appeared on Zhu Ying's face, but he didn't dare to tell his mother what he thought in his heart, so he had to say perfunctorily: "Could it be because I am close to Wanzhao, or maybe he ordered it casually, what does this mean?" ”

Wang glanced at Zhu Ying, she is also a person from this age, how could she not know her daughter's thoughts, but she didn't pierce it, and patiently explained to her: "You are close to Wanzhao, and there are frost clouds and Wanzhao who are close?" Why didn't he just order Frost Cloud? That's because Shuangyun is a member of the Xie family, the Xie family can't easily enter this troubled water, they can only choose our Zhu family, although our Zhu family has not entered the Shi family, but the world is full of peach and plum, and as long as your imperial aunt and grandmother are there, our Zhu family will not fall, choose you, even if others want to do it, they have to weigh their own strength. ”

Zhu Ying's face turned pale, she couldn't believe that the truth would be like this, but there was a voice in her heart saying, believe it, he is so close to Wanzhao, when Wanzhao is there, he doesn't even want to give you a look, he is using you!

Zhu Yu lowered her eyes and said softly, "Mother, I know." ”

Wang touched her hair and said comfortingly: "Yu'er is good, my mother knows that you are a good child, and Yu'er will have a good future in the future." ”

However, in this good future, there can be no calculations and conspiracies, Wang secretly made up his mind in his heart.

……

The crown prince and the fourth prince said goodbye to Mrs. Xie and took the carriage back to the palace.

Gu Yi and Wei Zhi were very drunk, and the little guy helped the two of them into the carriage, but they vomited that the carriage was all filth, and seeing that the carriage could no longer sit down, Gu Yi and Wei Zhi borrowed the carriage of Xie Fu.

When Gu Yi returned to Ning Guogong's mansion, Ning Guogong was already waiting for him in the main hall, and when he saw Gu Yi drunk like this, he frowned, and asked his subordinates to cook sobering soup and pour him to drink.

Gu Yi didn't feel much when he drank, and it wasn't until two pots of wine entered his stomach that he couldn't afford to get drunk.

Ning Guogong asked the little guy next to him, "How could the prince drink like this?" ”

Song Yan didn't dare to lie, and explained how they fought for wine and how Gu Yi helped Wei Zhi block the wine one by one, the more Ning Guogong listened, the more angry he became, and in the end, Song Yan said that the three princes did not lose a game, and when he was in the mood to peel walnuts, his face was as heavy as black charcoal, and he said straight in his mouth: "This fool doesn't know if he is calculated!" ”

When Songyan heard this, he just wanted to shrink himself into a ball, where did he dare to say more.

Ning Guogong glared at him, "Why don't you hurry up and send the prince back to the room?" ”

Song Yan reluctantly picked up Gu Yi and helped him back to the house.

Gu Zhongyong, Duke of Ningguo, strode to the main room, and Duchess Ning Guo was packing up her things and helping Gu Manman to make a piece of utensils the size of a qiē in the Shuiyue Nunnery.

Seeing that her husband was back, she got up and greeted her, "Why did Grandpa Guo come back so early today?" ”

Ning Guogong's face was not very good, so he asked Mrs. Ning Guogong to serve and change into her homely clothes, sat down at the table and drank tea, and said to her: "Aren't the peonies at home about to bloom, you go back and find a time, and invite Mrs. Xia to come to the house to sit in the next post." ”

Duchess Ningguo's eyes lit up, is this about to start dealing with the Xia family?

She hurriedly sat down beside him, "I'm afraid that I won't be able to invite you, seeing that the New Year will be over in a few days, I'm afraid I'm busy taking care of family affairs." ”

Ning Guogong sneered: "Not coming? If they dare not come, this year will not have to pass. ”

Mrs. Ning Guo got such a sentence from her husband, her heart was settled, and she smiled and helped him rub her shoulder, Ning Guogong injured his shoulder when he was young, and when the weather was cold, the old disease attacked, and the shoulder hurt unbearably, and the weather was very cold recently, especially after the snow, the shoulder was faintly painful, and he was rubbed by his wife like this, and it was much better.

Seeing her husband's comfortable expression, Duchess Ning Guo thought that her daughter was afraid that she would not have a good time this year, and she was unhappy in her heart, and said: "Grandpa Guo has to help his daughter out of this breath, the concubine of Xia Mansion is too ruthless, and she has finally beaten Manman's reputation out over the years. ”

"You're embarrassed to say it!" When Ning Guogong heard this, he was angry, "How did you look at Manman?" What is she doing, you don't even know as a mother? She can have today, it has nothing to do with your connivance, look at it, if this thing spreads, Manman will have to die of old age in the nunnery! ”

Duchess Ning Guo hurriedly said: "Mrs. An Beihou has already suppressed this matter, and everyone will forget about it in a few years." ”

Ning Guogong was not so optimistic, thinking that his eldest son was also calculated today, he couldn't help but say: "What about Anbei Houfu?" It is not the same as being suspicious, the emperor's suspicion is getting heavier and heavier, and it is not a way to go on like this...... Third Prince, you have to find a way to get him away......"

Duchess Ning Guo saw that her husband was thinking about the affairs of the court, and it was difficult to speak for her daughter again, and she hated Xia Mansion even more in her heart.

……

Chanyi and Xia Mingche took the car back to Xiafu, Xiao Qing also sent Chanyi back, and several people sat in Lanxin Courtyard and chatted.

Mingyue, the maid of the second door, came in with a post.

Chanyi took the post and glanced at it, and was instantly surprised, it was actually a post from the Duchess of Ningguo, saying that the peonies at home were about to bloom, and asked Xie to go to the house with her to enjoy the flowers.

Xia Mingche took the post from Chanyi's hand, his brows furrowed, "It's really fast." ”

Chan Yi had a lot of dealings with the people of Ningguo Mansion in her last life, thinking of this Ningguo Duchess coming, she couldn't help but be shocked, this is a ruthless master, the previous Ning Guogong found that the maid in the room had an affair with the Ningguo Gongzi before marriage, regardless of the maid's four months of pregnancy, she beat the child down, and the maid also went to a life and threw it on the mass grave.

After Mrs. Ningguo entered the door, because she didn't like Mrs. Ningguo, she brought her to raise her in the second month after Mrs. Ningguo gave birth to her eldest son.

Seeing that the two of them were so nervous, Xiao Qing couldn't help but snort: "If you don't go, it's over, can the Duchess of Ningguo still come to the Xia Mansion to drag people?" ”

I'm afraid it's not that simple, since she dared to hand over the post, she wasn't afraid that they wouldn't go.

Chan Yi shook her head, "Sister Qing, do you know what kind of person Duchess Ning Guo is?" ”

Of course Xiao Qing didn't know, she was puzzled: "What, is it possible that she has three heads and six arms and can eat people?" ”

The corners of Chanyi's mouth sneered: "She can't eat people, but it's almost, do you know, in the Ningguo Mansion, most of the concubines who have children don't end well, Gu Kui's biological mother died of illness in the year she gave birth to Gu Kui, and Gu Mansion is such a concubine, the others are concubines, even if they give birth to concubines, they are all crazy and crazy, those who are not sick are either old and decrepit, or they are like a living dead, such a woman, do you say terrible? ”
