Marrying the prince of the Meng, is to go and kiss, the land of the Mengzu is barren, the man is fierce, the woman has a low status, if you really want to be close, it is really miserable, especially the daughter of the favored clan like the county lord of Xiuwen, the princess of Guojun Wang and the Li family glanced at each other, and at the same time showed sympathy, but because of the presence of Princess Xiangshan, she did not dare to express it too obviously.

The Li family was older, and came back to his senses and said, "It turns out that the county lord of Xiuwen is about to marry the princess's younger brother, congratulations."

Princess Xiangshan said with a smile: "There is no official will for this, I hope you don't say it yet."

"We must not say." The princess of Guojun Wang nodded again and again as if the chick pecked rice.

Su Yiqing picked up the teacup and took a sip lightly, it was inconvenient for her to express her opinion on this matter, she had a holiday with the county lord of Xiuwen, and at this time she said congratulations, others would only say that she gloated, but there was one point that she was very puzzled, since there was no official will, why did Princess Xiangshan reveal it in front of unfamiliar people, she didn't look like a person who could say something leaky.

Just thinking about it, I heard a woman's scream outside, the sound was too desolate, the Li family and the princess of Guojun Wang hurriedly got up and probed out, it seemed to be sent by the group of noble ladies outside.

The Li family here is the oldest and elder, and when she saw that something was wrong outside, she couldn't sit still, and hurriedly said: "I'll go and see, princess, princess, you sit down first, I'll go and come back."

Saying that, Li took the maid and the woman and hurried away.

The crying and laughter outside did not stop, Su Yiqing also stood up, looked out condescendingly, and faintly saw the group of noble ladies surrounding a lilac figure that fell to the ground, she remembered that it seemed that the county lord of Xiuwen was wearing purple clothes, and the voice was also very similar.

Because she didn't know what was going on over there, the princess of Guojun looked anxious, and everyone was in no mood to laugh.

Su Yiqing asked, "Is the Xiuwen County Lord seriously injured?"

Princess Xiangshan said: "It's so pitiful, how did you fall and get hurt?"

"The slave doesn't know, it's just that the county lord of Xiuwen seems to be in a lot of pain." The maid said that it was equal to not saying it.The county lord of Xiuwen screamed so badly.Everyone heard it.Can it not hurt.

This kind of thing happened, who still has the heart to sit in place and drink tea and chat.Su Yiqing only felt that the timing of the fall of the Xiuwen County Lord was really too coincidental, and she didn't want to get involved in this matter, so she mentioned that she would go back to the flower hall first.

Princess Xiangshan has no opinion, and Princess Guojun Wang Shishi has no objection.

The group walked towards the flower hall together.

When I was about to get to the flower hall, I met a plainly dressed young woman with a few maids coming from another way, and when I saw them, I suddenly turned to another place, and I lowered my head as if I was deliberately avoiding them.

Princess Xiangshan couldn't help but say, "Whose lady is this?"

The princess of Guojun said a little unnaturally: "This is General Shao's wife, she has a somewhat eccentric temperament and has always disliked interacting with people...... Princess, princess, please walk slowly, be careful with your step, there are more stones on this road."

Princess Guojun obviously didn't want to mention this General Shao's wife, and Princess Xiangshan was so clear that someone would naturally not ask.

Su Yiqing had been silent since Fang Cai and lowered her thoughtful expression, and seemed to be a little frightened, probably because she was frightened by the mournful shouts of the county lord of Xiuwen.

The princess of Guojun Wang couldn't help but sigh secretly.A good birthday banquet, this kind of thing happened, it was half smashed, no matter why the county lord of Xiuwen fell and was injured, it was always in their mansion that something happened, they couldn't escape the blame, and everyone would say that they Guojun Wangfu was not well entertained.

Back in the flower hall, sure enough, the atmosphere was not quite right, those ladies were whispering, Su Yiqing took the opportunity to leave, and there was a lot of commotion around, and the old lady Xue didn't do anything to keep it, and only let the princess of Guojun send her out.

When I got outside, the little guy outside the house said that the prince had something to do.

Su Yiqing got into the carriage and returned to the mansion, listening to the maid's report, saying that the prince had gone to see Miss Ning, and sighed softly, it was really providential, every time she encountered something and wanted to tell him, she would always be interrupted, and then she wouldn't want to say it.

Thinking of the person she accidentally met today, that somewhat familiar face, she was a little uneasy, and thinking of the information of those noble ladies collected by Green Vine before, she felt that it was not like a coincidence.

……

Guojun Wangfuzhong.

Old Concubine Xue was tired of lying on the soft couch, letting the maid gently hammer her legs, and she closed her eyes to recuperate.

Princess Guojun, Princess Guojun and Li and Princess Guojun's daughter Lewen all served beside him.

After a stick of incense, a mother-in-law came to report, "The old lady, the old slave inquired, the results of the diagnosis of the two imperial doctors are the same as those diagnosed by the doctor in our house, the upper leg of the lord of Xiuwen County is very strict, the leg bone is broken, and he will be in bed for several months and cannot move, even if it is good, whether it will hinder the movement in the future depends on the healing of the bones."

"It's really pitiful, good boy...... "Old Concubine Xue sighed twice, and instructed Princess Guojun, "Send more medicinal herbs and supplements, no matter what, people are in our house, we don't take good care of it, let's apologize."

"Grandmother, Xiuwen was injured by a fall herself, and she is not a three-year-old child, what does this matter to our house? Xiuwen, who was only thirteen years old, looked unconvinced, "As soon as we apologize, people will think it's our fault."

"Lewen, it's been a whole day, and you're tired, so let's go down and rest first, you still don't help Miss down." Princess Guojun saw her daughter say such as. [,!] This stupid remark hurriedly ordered the maid to pull her daughter away.

"The child is still young, just teach it slowly." Old Concubine Xue has always known how to deal with interpersonal relationships, and she will never say that her children are not in front of a mother, so she turned to Li and said, "Niece and daughter-in-law, you should go back and rest first."

"Auntie, that nephew has retired." Li curtsied and walked away with his personal maid.

"Stand down, too." Old Concubine Xue said to the little maid who beat her legs again.

The maids and mothers-in-law around Old Concubine Xue all retreated, and those around Princess Guojun and Princess Shizi naturally retreated with great eyes.

"Mother-in-law, it's all your daughter-in-law who was too negligent and let this happen to your sixtieth birthday." Before that, the old lady Xue had mentioned many times that the 60th birthday did not need to be a big deal, just a family get together for a meal, at most invite a few old sisters to listen to the play, she insisted on doing it, the old lady Xue was not the biological mother of the king of Guojun, if they didn't make a big deal, the couple would be poked in the back.

I really didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, Princess Guojun sighed.Others envy her mother-in-law for being kind and good at serving.But no one knows about the bitterness in her heart, it is because her mother-in-law has a good reputation for kindness, and she has to be very careful when she serves.Otherwise, if there is a point of negligence, let alone outsiders, her husband will be the first to jump out and accuse her, and other people's daughters-in-law are forced to make rules by the evil mother-in-law.

The princess of Guojun stood aside with her head down, she didn't dare to speak, the atmosphere was not right, how dare she talk more, but Rao was like this.

Old Concubine Xue looked at her and asked, "Daughter-in-law Sun, what did she say when you accompanied Princess Xiangshan to the garden today.

"I didn't talk about anything special, just to walk around the garden, Princess Xiangshan said that our garden was exquisitely built, and asked who designed it, the Six Princes' Mansion was newly built, and many places were not very well repaired." The princess of Guojun Wang said and thought for a while, "As for Princess Ding, we met halfway through, and we didn't say anything at all."

Princess Guojun remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "You can look far away from the Mid-Levels Pavilion, since you are drinking tea on the Mid-Levels Pavilion, have you seen anything, have you seen how the Lord of Xiuwen fell and injured himself?"

"Nope." The princess of Guojun replied very affirmatively, "My daughter-in-law remembers very clearly, we were all sitting at that time, and we only got up and looked out after hearing the screams, and it was absolutely impossible to see anything."

"You're sitting, aren't the maids and women around you sitting? Did they see anything? Have you asked carefully?" The princess of Guojun continued to ask.

"This ...... Not yet." The princess of Guojun had an expression of doing something wrong.

"At that time, so many noble ladies and maids didn't see anything when they looked closely, even if someone in the mid-mountain pavilion looked over by chance, they couldn't see anything, so there was no need to ask." Old Concubine Xue waved her hand, and said to the princess of Guojun Wang, "Think about it carefully, what did Princess Xiangshan say to you, anything related to people, and what did Princess Ding say?

The princess of Guojun Wang tried very hard to recall, "It's really just a garden, if you want to say that it is related to people, that is, Mrs. Tai looks so kind and makes her think of her grandmother, the birthday banquet is lively, to the garden, she said that this garden is elegant, the flowers near the Four Seasons Pavilion bloom well, it is rare that there are many developed flowers in this late autumn, I asked about the evil varieties, how to plant and so on, I said that it was planted by my mother-in-law, she said that she would ask her mother-in-law for advice another day and so on, I didn't mention others, as for Princess Ding, she was accompanied by her aunt before, She didn't seem to say anything."

"Don't all talk about flowers and plants?" Princess Xiangshan met with Princess Ding, and sat down to drink tea together, it is impossible not to find a topic." Old Concubine Xue was a little unconvinced.

"It's really nothing, Princess Xiangshan seems to have praised Princess Ding for being good at tea ceremony or something, and Princess Ding was modest, and it was very usual." The princess of Guojun tried to remember.

"Princess Xiangshan's temperament is like this, she is keen to make friends with noble ladies and is very good at talking." Princess Guojun was a little embarrassed when she saw her daughter-in-law, and couldn't help but speak for her.

"Maybe, since it's nothing special, then you all go back and rest." Old Concubine Xue was also really tired, and when the princess of Guojun and the princess were about to retreat, she sighed seemingly unintentionally, "It's a pity that the county lord Xiuwen, if something happens at this moment, the family affairs will be difficult."

At this time, the princess of Guojun suddenly stopped and said, "Grandmother, I remember, Princess Xiangshan seems to have said in the end, the lively nature of the lord of Xiuwen County must be very compatible with her thirteenth brother."

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" Princess Guojun was shocked, this daughter-in-law was so confused, it was in vain that the old lady Xue had been seducing for so long, she said a lot of miscellaneous things, but the most important thing was not said.

The princess of Guojun was very aggrieved, "This princess of Xiangshan specially told her, there is no official will, she inadvertently said that she leaked her mouth, let's not say it."

"Of course, there is no need to say that there is nothing to do, now that there is such a big thing, how can you not say it to your own parents, do you understand the severity?" Princess Guojun couldn't help but scold.

"Okay, young man, I was so frightened that something like this happened and I couldn't think of it for a while, granddaughter-in-law, you go down first." Old Concubine Xue said kindly to the princess of Guojun Wang. You can go back to your room and rest first."

The princess of Guojun didn't dare to move, she only looked at the princess of Guojun.

"Go ahead." Princess Guojun said angrily.

Only then did the princess curtsy and bowed.

In Guojun Wang Shifei out. After going, Old Concubine Xue sighed softly.

Princess Guojun is even more breathless, there is such a fine mother-in-law.She has a hard time, thinking that she is young, there is her own and Mrs. Xue in the house, there is no need to find a daughter-in-law who is too smart and clever to be angry with herself.So she chose a delicate and innocent woman, only to find out that it is really better to find a smart one, at least you don't have to clean up the mess after being angry, when she first chose her daughter-in-law, she asked Mrs. Xue for her opinion. But the old concubine Xue is like this, she doesn't like to say things thoroughly, she pretended to be confused, and first decided the current princess, and the result is that after entering the house, having a daughter-in-law is equal to not having a daughter-in-law, and she can't help at all, and she doesn't even complain about what she picks.

Old Concubine Xue half-closed her eyes, as if she was thinking, and asked for a long time, "What are you thinking?"

"The daughter-in-law is thinking that since the county lord of Xiuwen is going to be pointed out to the prince of the Meng clan, it is likely that she will be canonized as a princess, and now that she is injured in our house, will the palace blame." Princess Guojun hesitated, "Do you want to go and ask the palace for a crime?"

"That's all you're worried about?" Old Concubine Xue opened her eyes.

"This holy blame is not trivial, it is naturally important, and others can be put aside for the time being." Princess Guojun really felt that compared to the Thunder Fury of the Holy Saint, everything else was trivial.

"That's not what I'm worried about." Old Concubine Xue frowned slightly, "Don't say that there is no explicit decree to marry the county lord of Xiuwen to the prince of the Meng clan now, even if there is a clear decree, this group of people see that this girl Xiuwen is running around when she goes to a banquet at someone else's house, she doesn't know the etiquette, what does it have to do with our family?

"Mother-in-law, don't worry, there is absolutely no such thing." Princess Guojun hurriedly assured, "I asked very clearly, at that time, Le Wen was instructed by the county lord of Xiuwen to go to the ice cellar to get ice fruits, Linlin, Langlang two teenagers couldn't outrun the group of people from the county lord of Xiuwen, and they were far away when the accident happened, and the maids and women in the house were just waiting on the side, without the slightest suspicion."

This really makes the princess of Guojun happy, her daughter has always been wrong with the county lord of Xiuwen, and the county lord of Xiuwen has relied on the title to suppress her daughter, every time the noble girl gathers to give her daughter a little anger, her daughter is a little afraid of her, and she will stay away from her if she has the opportunity.

Old Concubine Xue nodded: "Have you thought about it?" The county lord of Xiuwen is injured, and the injury is so severe, it is estimated that the matter of marrying to the prince of the Meng clan will be stopped, and the palace must choose another famous lady to marry to the prince of the Meng clan, who do you think will be next?"

"How can this daughter-in-law know?" Princess Guojun shook her head, there are many school-age nobles in the clan, and there are too many who can be assigned to marry, and sometimes the ministers of the court and the central government will also consider it if they have outstanding daughters, by the way, I heard that the county lord of Xiuwen has a slightly younger half-sister Yayun, who is a concubine, has always been unfavored, and no one pays attention to it.

"Have you ever thought about your own daughter." Old Concubine Xue slowly threw out a sentence that made Princess Guojun tremble.

"Mother-in-law, this ...... It's impossible, we're only thirteen years old." Princess Guojun's face turned white all of a sudden, she is also a smart person, after such a reminder from Mrs. Xue, I immediately thought that my daughter is thirteen years old this year, and the excerpt of asking the county lord a few years ago was refuted, saying that the girl was still young, and at that time it was still when the emperor was there.

The difference between the county lord and the county lord is very different, the county lord can open a house alone, but the county lord does not, they are naturally excited, and they think that their daughter is still young, and if they fight more, they will have a chance to make great contributions.

They have a son and a daughter under their knees, there is an old prince in the clan, and there are more than 30 children at most.

But that's the usual situation, now that the county lord of Xiuwen fell and injured himself in their mansion, they are more or less responsible, and at this time, someone has to bring it up, and it is not impossible to push the boat down the river to let her daughter go on top.

Old Concubine Xue sighed, "Actually, earlier, I had already heard the rumors, saying that the palace intended to marry the county lord of Xiuwen to the prince of the fierce clan, think about it, the daughter of the Manchu Dynasty, there is no more suitable than Xiuwen, first of all, she was named the county lord in her early years, not for the sake of the match, and she was temporarily brought to give a title with a low actual status, and then added one or two levels to become a county lord and even the princess is better to explain to the fierce clan, secondly, she is a concubine, her mother will not help her, but I am afraid that she will push from it, as for her father." , men are more ruthless than women in many major things, and men are not as convenient as women in this kind of thing...... In short, it doesn't have much to do with our family, and I don't care too much, but now that this kind of thing has happened, I've been thinking about it, and I'm afraid it's not easy to find another one that is more suitable than Xiuwen's county lord, Princess Xiangshan already knows that at this time, it is necessary to replace people who are better than Xiuwen in all aspects, and it's hard to say anything else, the identity must be higher than Xiuwen, and there are not many suitable ones."

"What then?" Princess Guojun was even more flustered.

Old Concubine Xue pondered for a long time, "You don't have to worry too much, maybe it's just my guess, maybe things aren't that bad."

"But in case ......" Princess Guojun was really afraid, and said in a different mind, "It's better for us to hurry up and get engaged for Lewen, and it will be fine if we have a suitable family."

"Do you have the right candidate? If you are too hasty, I am afraid that you will miss the child's life, after all, what we said earlier is speculation, not necessarily." Old Concubine Xue said and held her forehead, "It's late today, I'll inquire again tomorrow."

Princess Guojun didn't dare to disturb either. [,!] Old Concubine Xue went back to the room to discuss with her grandmother for a long time.

The Hu family at this time.

Hu Shilang listened to the maid's report, and immediately became angry, and wanted to call Mrs. Hu to scold her, but remembered Mrs. Hu's expression that a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water recently.

This woman has died of a daughter, and the rest is her lifeline, and she has to fight with him when she moves, and the two brothers are already secretly complaining, this sister-in-law is becoming more and more crazy, and she does not hesitate to damage the interests of the whole family for her daughter, and she does everything possible to say that she is not talking to her daughter.

The brothers all said that other people's families don't know much about the situation, but their own family understands, and people inside and outside praise Miss Hu on weekdays, and they are embarrassed to admit it, but this Miss Hu's behavior is too out of line, dignified and virtuous on the surface, but actually has a bad stomach.

Doesn't it mean that they will offend people by introducing them to the good offspring of their relatives and friends? Later, it was discovered that Miss Hu was such a person, and told them how to raise their heads in front of relatives and friends.

The concubines even said bluntly, if the sister-in-law directly blackmailed them for money and things, they would smash the pot and sell the iron, but it would never be possible for them to betray their mother's family.

In this case, it is quite difficult to tell Miss Hu about a family affair that is right for everyone, according to what he said, give a thicker dowry, and marry low, but this daughter is not happy, and instigates her mother who is almost crazy to help, which is embarrassing.

The Hu family has become like this, and several concubines have complained that there are already a lot of rumors outside, on the cusp, the birthday banquet of the old lady Xue of the Guojun Palace, he just asked Mrs. Hu to send a birthday gift, he is a civil official, and these nobles should not be too much, but Mrs. Hu promised in her mouth, but she disobeyed the yang and secretly took her daughter to the banquet.

Ever since he learned the news, his heart has been holding on to it, for fear that something will happen at the birthday banquet.

As a result, something really happened, the county lord of Xiuwen fell and injured himself at the banquet, and I heard the maid say that when the incident happened, Miss Hu had been following the county lord of Xiuwen, but the scene was a little chaotic at that time, and the little maid didn't see it very clearly. (To be continued)
