Chapter 101: Princess Cheng Xuan

Xue Hui, the eldest princess of Chengxuan, is the younger sister of Xue Liao's mother, and she is also the most favored by the emperor among the many princes and princesses. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Of course, this is just a comparison.

The first emperor was a very thin lover, and he never gave his sincerity to his concubines or children. pampering Xue Hui is just a reward for more things, and occasionally asking her to enter the palace to accompany her to dinner.

When Xue Liao was deposed, Xue Hui was pregnant and knelt outside the palace gate and begged for mercy. The first emperor didn't care about her, knelt for a day and a night, and finally fainted, and asked the people of the princess's mansion to carry her back.

Xue Hui had a miscarriage when she returned to the princess's mansion, and she lost her body because of it, and it was difficult to get pregnant in the future. After this incident, she also completely understood that she had no weight in the heart of the first emperor. The so-called love, the so-called father-daughter relationship, is just another pastime he uses to make up for the emptiness.

Over the years, she has been ostensibly self-contained and has never been involved in the battles between princes. Secretly, he co-opted those upright ministers and people with lofty ideals who were dissatisfied with the imperial court and the first emperor, and planted people in the six departments of the three provinces, Zongzheng Yuan, and even the heavenly prison, and did his best to protect Xue Liao and Chang Huaiyuan.

Xue Liao was able to recover, and Xue Hui made great contributions. After ascending the throne, Xue Liao was the first to crown Xue Hui as the eldest princess of the country, and her children were rewarded, and they also benefited from the horses.

Although Xue Hui has handed over most of the connections she has mastered to Xue Liao and willingly retreated into the background, she has also gained more praise and prestige.

With the people's desire, coupled with Xue Liao's favor, the status of the princess's mansion in Beijing is now unparalleled. Even a tranquil person like Mrs. An dare not slack off.

There was still a while before the start of the flower party, and the ladies who received the post came early and gathered in the hall specially packed out for the people to rest temporarily.

At present, the hottest topic in Beijing is the matter of the Liberation Mansion to find a descendant. It is said that this old lady An cherishes herself and does not want to bring out to meet the Xie family girl who is also invited to come today, and there is no one who is not looking forward to it.

"Speaking of which, this is the first time that the girl of the Xie family has shown her face, right?" As soon as Xu Hanlin's wife sat down, she discussed with a few ladies around her.

"yes. "It was Liang Zongbing's stepwife who responded, "I heard that the girl of the Xie family looks similar to the late Duke Xie Guo, as the saying goes, the tiger girl will go out of the door, and the girl of the Xie family must be a strange woman who does not let her eyebrows go." ”

are all people with status, just muttering behind their backs, they have to take care of decency in front of people, and they can't judge the rights and wrongs of people. What Mrs. Liang said was originally a scene, and there was no intention of saying the opposite. Listening to the ears of those who have a heart will have a little more deep meaning, hearing the words or bowing their heads and pursing their lips, or taking a handkerchief and a tea cup to cover the smile on the side of their mouths.

At this moment, someone outside raised a voice to announce that Princess Cheng Xuan and the county lord of Xianghe had arrived. Everyone hurriedly restrained their voices, straightened their clothes, and got up to greet them.

Xue Hui has just turned forty years old this year, well-maintained, graceful posture, and looks like she is in her early thirties. The eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Xue Liao's, and their gestures bring out a natural elegance and nobility.

The lord of Xianghe County's name is Jingluo, fourteen years old this year, no matter his appearance or posture, he is poured out of the same mold as Xue Hui. is only softer in temperament, a little more chaste and gentle than his mother, and a little less alienated because of being high.

The ladies raised their eyes and saw Xue Hui and Yan Jingluo walking hand in hand, their skirts shining, feeling that they were not like mother and daughter, but like a pair of close sisters.

When the ladies and sisters came to see each other and the guests and hosts sat down, Xue Hui smiled and apologized, "There are so many distinguished guests coming to the humble house today, but I am afraid that I will be lazy, and it will take a lot of work to dress up, so I have made you wait for a long time." I'll replace the wine with tea first, and I'll accompany you. ”

Everyone hurriedly got up and said that they didn't dare, because they came early. They raised their teacups one after another, took a sip with her, and then sat down again flattered.

Xue Hui was present, and everyone spoke more and more carefully, lest they say something wrong, and they will lose their faces in front of others, leaving a bad impression on Princess Chengxuan. Picking up some painless interesting things and chatting for a while, I heard an announcement from outside, and it was Mrs. An and Mrs. Chang who arrived together.

Xue Hui hurriedly put down the teacup in her hand and led Yan Jingluo and the ladies out of the door.

"Oh, that's a long time coming. After taking a look, Xue Hui greeted with a smile.

Mrs. An and Mrs. Chang both stepped forward to confess their crimes, "...... It's really damn to call the eldest princess Jiuhou. ”

They all came over the hour, so naturally they couldn't be late. Xue Hui helped the two of them up one by one, and said with a smile: "I can't wait to see you, where do I want to find fault with you? ”

"Your Highness is serious. Mrs. Chang said politely, and then looked at Xue Hui out of sight, "I haven't seen you for many days, Your Highness is getting younger and younger." The courtiers dared to ask, "Your Highness has taken a panacea that can turn back time?" Can you give the courtiers one or two pills?"

Xue Hui laughed out loud, "Madame is happy with me again, how can there be a panacea in this world called turning back time? I have a few beauty recipes here, I will go back and ask someone to copy it for you." ”

Mrs. Chang did not shirk, and bent her knees, "The courtesy thanked the eldest princess first." ”

Chang Huaiyuan, like Duke Xie Guo, assisted Xue Liao and was respected by Xue Liao as a teacher. Xue Hui also had a close relationship with Mrs. Chang, and secretly called Xue Liao his wife.

During the ten years when the Chang family was imprisoned in the prison, Xue Hui took care of him. Now that the clouds are open and the moon is bright, the relationship between the two is better than before, and Xue Hui talks naturally and casually with Mrs. Chang.

Tong An Lao Taijun was much more polite, asked An Lao Taijun's physical condition, and asked Yan Jingluo to come forward to salute, and then set his eyes on Mu Lan, who was standing quietly behind An Lao Taijun, "This is the county lord of Suichuan, right?"

Mrs. An answered "yes" and motioned for Mulan to come forward to salute.

Mulan hurriedly bowed down, "Mulan has seen the eldest princess......"

"Don't be polite. Without waiting for her to be blessed~ to go down, Xue Hui held her up, held her hand and looked at her carefully, seeing that her eyebrows were open, Qiong's nose and cherry lips were full of sparse heroism in the woman's softness, which was in response to the words of the tiger girl.

Although Xue Hui had never seen Mulan before, she had heard a few words when she entered the palace, and knew that Mulan was not as ugly as the legends outside. It was indeed a little amazing to see Mulan's true face with his own eyes, but he was not surprised.

Although the others were not as shocked as Hongyu said, they were also surprised.

Those who have seen the Duke of Xie Guo's Mansion can't help but sigh at the strength and wonder of the bloodline when they compare it with Mulan's appearance; those who have never seen the Duke of Xie Guo can't help but guess in their hearts, what kind of feminine and sick face should the Duke of Xie Guo, who shocked the world and frightened the Wei army?

Just when everyone was thinking differently because of Mulan's appearance, there was a sudden commotion outside the door.

Xue Hui's face was slightly gloomy, and he instructed the eunuchs beside him, "Liu Can, go and see, who is making noise outside the door and disturbing the distinguished guests of the palace?"

Liu Can got the order, bowed down and ran towards the door. After whispering a few words to a person dressed as a servant, he turned back and said with an embarrassed face: "Your Highness, it's Prince Guo......"
