After the queen led the concubines to leave the scene first, Su Yiqing and a few noblewomen who had just been quietly notified by the palace maid walked towards the back of the main hall under the envious eyes of some experienced noblewomen.

Probably in the eyes of most people, those who can be left by the queen are people who are valued, power is really tempting, these people forget the danger of being left behind so quickly, but what they can remember is only the glory that can be brought, and envy the people who can get glory.

Su Yiqing finally came to a relatively small side hall, the queen did not arrive, there were only a few of them, she recalled the identities of these noblewomen, some had seen it a few times, and some had seen it for the first time, but whether they had seen it or not, they were all unfamiliar, that is, they were not people in a circle.

Just like Wenchen and military generals rarely have contacts, the Yancheng elite circle is also divided into several kinds, although it is not a circle, although it is not without contact, but there is very little communication, what is the purpose of the queen to gather this noble lady who is not in a circle with her? The second lady of Zhongsu Houfu, You Shi, is also among them, seeing You Shi and several of them secretly exchanging eyes, Su Yiqing's heart moved and thought carefully about the identities of these people one by one, it seems that these people are more or less related to Zhongsu Houfu, it should be said that they are all in-laws of Zhongsu Houfu.

Princess Xiangshan's reminder was not wrong, and sure enough, Concubine Rong wanted to target her this time.

In terms of status and status, Su Yiqing, the Dingwang Mansion, has a higher status than the few noblewomen present, but she is the youngest in the rotation grade, so her seat is arranged next to the You family, and she has no contact with You Shi, although after sitting down. You Shi smiled warmly at her first, as if she had the intention of talking to someone, but she was wary of it, and she just nodded lightly.

Presumably You Shi felt Su Yiqing's indifference, and his enthusiastic smile suddenly stiffened, but this stiffness was only a flash, and then he smiled more enthusiastically.

Stretching out her hand and not hitting the smiling person, although others smiled at herself, Su Yiqing did not follow with the same smile, earlier she especially wanted to be a qualified lady and wear a hypocritical mask. Don't let people see what she really thinks in her heart. But after it was determined that Zhongsu Houfu had bad intentions, her mask could not be put on.

According to past experience, if she reciprocated her enthusiasm for You Shi, You Shi would inevitably hit the snake and stick it up. Then find a way to set a trap, and then set a trap. Now be a little more apathetic. If you can't find a suitable opening line, you will naturally give up, if it is an ordinary country woman, she may stick it on her face, but you is such a noblewoman. If you cultivate at home, you probably won't be able to do it.

Sure enough, the expression on You Shi's face changed a few times, and after all, he still didn't take the initiative to talk, but turned sideways and talked to another noble lady next to him, that noble lady Su Yiqing had a relationship, and she was also a family woman, her husband's family surname was Duanmu, and she was a famous family in Yancheng, as for her own family, it had declined, and there was nothing worth noting, but this kind of family generally has a huge foundation, and it is inextricably related to the famous families in Yancheng, and it is probably related to Zhongsu Houfu.

Su Yiqing didn't listen carefully to what You Shi said, she only pretended to bow her head to appreciate the exquisite tea set on the table, or she deliberately didn't listen, and as a dignified and virtuous lady, You Shi and they wouldn't speak too loudly, and they couldn't hear it if they didn't deliberately.

After a long while, Empress Ni came with Concubine Rong.

"I've kept you waiting. It was probably very late, Queen Ni didn't say too much about the prelude to the opening remarks, and smiled directly, "I invited a few people to come this time to thank a few people for being able to deal with changes and stabilize people's hearts when Yancheng was disrupted, especially the Dingwang Mansion, which has made great contributions, and Princess Ding can make Dingwang have no worries." ”

Hearing these words, Su Yiqing was a little disappreciative in her heart, Yancheng may have a lot of credit for even Yufeng, but not only did she not do anything, but she also ran away by herself when she was disrupted, and now Queen Ni said that these things are obviously not because she doesn't know the facts, but because she will have other plans after praise.

"Mother's praise, I just did what I changed. Su Yiqing was not modest, and replied lightly, everyone said so, do you want to be hypocritical, anyway, it's just a few words and it's not a matter of robbing people's credit, so you can't deserve it.

"It's really modest to position the concubine. This time it was Concubine Rong who spoke, and Concubine Rong said with a smile, "There are no elders in the Dingwang Mansion, and it must be very hard for the positioning concubine to be in charge of the entire positioning mansion alone, right?"

Concubine Rong's words were not said in vain, but at this moment, Su Yiqing didn't care about analyzing whether there would be any verbal traps, she found an opportunity, and immediately seized it, and immediately said: "Although there are no elders in the Dingwang Mansion, there are still many elders to guide me, otherwise I really don't know what to do." ”

"Oh, which elder is mentioning the princess?" Concubine Rong asked casually.

Su Yiqing said: "The earliest is none other than Old Concubine Xue, who has always taken care of her juniors. ”

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became a little cold, everyone knew that the case of the emperor's assassination in the Guojun Palace, which was tantamount to a major crime of rebellion, the raid was only in the first line, and it was too late for others to hide, not to mention in the public, even in private, few people dared to mention it, I didn't expect this positioning concubine to be so bold, and she actually dared to mention the old lady Xue at this time.

Others are okay to say, Concubine Rong's face suddenly turned a little pale, if it is inappropriate to say such things as Concubine Rong, then she, the person who led the conversation, is also guilty.

Looking at Concubine Rong's reaction, Su Yiqing immediately knew that Queen Ni was not as amiable as she seemed on the surface, and she must be strict with the harem concubines.

Everyone didn't dare to make a sound, and at this time Queen Ni said with a smile: "Old Concubine Xue is indeed a kind junior, this palace remembers that when she didn't marry into the royal family, she was also taught by Old Concubine Xue, and I heard that the younger brother of the concubine's mother and Miss Lewen of Guojun Wangfu are about to get married, congratulations." ”

Su Yiqing said: "I have to thank Your Majesty for the fulfillment of this." ”

The faces of everyone present were ugly again, and the positioning concubine actually reminded the queen so bluntly that the marriage between the Meng family and the Guojun Mansion was a holy decree, so she should not be condemned, after all, Queen Ni is the mother of a country, so it is obviously a little provocative to Queen Ni's authority.

Concubine Rong and You Shi secretly exchanged glances again, obviously looking very worried.

At this time, a young concubine of a younger grade next to Concubine Rong changed the subject, pretending to be innocent and asked: "Speaking of marriage, Princess Ding and King Ding are a godsend, a good story in the city, even in the deep palace, I have already heard of it, I don't know if the princess can talk about it."
