Hearing such sophistry from Princess Guojun, Old Concubine Xue didn't know whether to laugh or get angry.

I really wonder if this daughter-in-law has taken the wrong medicine recently, she is quite shrewd on weekdays, why is she so confused lately? No matter how discordant she is, she is still her mother's family, how can outsiders be allowed to calculate at will?

This can be seen from the fact that Princess Guojun wanted to instigate the Li family to marry the Meng family, so that the Guojun Royal Mansion could get some benefits, but it was calculated by others.

I want to calculate others, but I am calculated by others, and I don't learn a lesson, and I want to take advantage of it and I don't want to pay the price.

Speaking of which, on weekdays, I underestimated the princess of Guojun, the marrying grandmother, and even inquired about such things.

Just as he was about to reprimand Princess Guojun again, he saw Mother Xin hurriedly come in and whispered a few words in Old Concubine Xue's ear, and Old Concubine Xue's face suddenly changed.

Princess Guojun's eyelids jumped, she didn't know what was going on, and she didn't dare to ask.

At this time, Old Concubine Xue opened her mouth and said, "What happened to your married grandmother's family?"

"What's wrong?" Princess Guojun was shocked, she didn't care about saying honorifics, she knew that the news of the old grandmother was all heard by her nephew.

The old grandmother's family was released from the house at an early age, and her nephew knew some people from all walks of life outside, so he was very well-informed, and he could often inquire about some things that others couldn't inquire.

Old Concubine Xue glanced at Princess Guojun and said lightly: "It's not a big deal." It was just that the water was gone, and the whole family of more than ten people was burned to death.

"Ah!" Princess Guojun couldn't help but exclaim, more than a dozen people were burned to death like that, it was so miserable, she couldn't help muttering, "How can this be?"

"Isn't it strange?" Old Concubine Xue sneered, "I have been inquiring about other people's secrets all day long, and I know what I shouldn't know, what good end can I expect? None of the people involved are ordinary people. It's either powerful or three-class, in short, it's not easy to mess with, and what do you expect to do?"

Princess Guojun was scared, but still said, "Maybe it's an accident." It's dry. I heard that there have been fires in the city recently. ”

"Are you all grass in your head?" Old Concubine Xue scolded a market sentence. "If you think about it with your brain, a dozen people are not crammed into one room, several people in a room. There are several strong men, even if the fire is going to burn at night, it will be burned from room to room, and it will not spread all at once, and there will always be people who are screaming in pain, and if you throw a chicken into the fire, you can still flutter a few times, how can you not escape any of them? ”

Princess Guojun still said stiffly: "Even so, it doesn't have to be caused by this." ”

"Well, since you think so, go back, when I didn't say that. Old Concubine Xue said, "Be careful when you sleep at night, especially when the candle flame is extinguished, lest there be a fire in your house that day." ”

"No, won't it?" Princess Guojun became even more scared, this is Princess Guojun, there are countless guards in the mansion, how can there be thieves who can break in.

Old Concubine Xue stopped talking, only looked at Princess Guojun quietly, as if she was smiling, and then took out a peace charm and threw it to Princess Guojun.

Princess Guojun took it and saw that it was the peace charm she had asked for in the temple, and it had always been kept close to her, how could it be in the hands of the old lady Xue? Thinking of this, she hurriedly took out the sachet she had put the peace charm in, opened it, but found that it was just a white paper the size of the peace charm, and she couldn't help but be surprised: "Old lady, what's going on?"

Old Concubine Xue said expressionlessly: "You don't have to know this, you just need to know that since I can quietly get your personal things, others can also get them, maybe one day, this sachet will not contain paper, but a poisonous snake." ”

Princess Guojun's face was full of horror.

Old Concubine Xue said: "After all, you are young, although you are from everyone, but you still have some knowledge, there are countless people under the hands of people who really cover the sky with one hand, and it is easy for some people to kill a person quietly, and sometimes you may not know what is going on when you die." I don't even know who did it. ”

"There are so many guards in the house, are they all puppets and mud tires?" Princess Guojun was frightened.

Old Concubine Xue said: "There are people outside the world, there is a sky outside the sky, you stay in the small world of Guojun Wangfu all day long, you think you are smart and amazing, but you don't know what the outside world is like, I have lived to this age, and I have seen more means." ”

"I ...... What should I do?" said Princess Guojun.

"Do you know you're scared now?" Old Concubine Xue glanced at her and sighed, "How many times have you been warned, some people can't be provoked, don't listen, look at what it has become now?" Don't say that you are an ignorant woman in the inner house, even if it is the Dajing Mission that your man went to greet, so many expert guards, are not hundreds of times and thousands of times stronger than the guards in our mansion?

"This gangster's attack on the mission is naturally not an accident, there have always been people who want to destroy the relationship between Da Zhou and Da Jing. "Princess Guojun still knows a little about the situation in the DPRK and China.

"It's not that simple. When Old Concubine Xue said this, she suddenly closed her mouth, and said after a while, "Forget it, I don't want to say too much, lest you leak your mouth, but let my old bones cause trouble." ”

Princess Guojun listened to Mrs. Xue's words but didn't continue, and she suddenly felt a little itchy and unbearable, but she didn't dare to urge Mrs. Xue, so she only said in a low voice: "Old lady, please show your daughter-in-law a way." ”

Old Concubine Xue paused for a long time, and let Princess Guojun wait anxiously before saying: "If you still want to listen to me now, don't do stupid things anymore, otherwise I will move to the small Buddha hall to live, whatever you want, don't discuss with me if something happens."

"No, no, ask the old lady to save her daughter-in-law. Princess Guojun was completely frightened, and her face turned pale. pleading.

"I'm an old woman who is about to enter the ground, how can I save you?" Old Concubine Xue sighed, "What I can do is to give you a little advice, don't play these calculating people's cleverness anymore, smart will be mistaken by cleverness, do less and make fewer mistakes." ”

"But what should I do now?" Princess Guojun felt cold when she thought that more than ten members of the old grandmother's family were burned alive.

"You don't hurt people, people don't bother to work on you, killing people is not as simple as killing a chicken, people who do big things will not be like some cautious women. Do something that harms others and is not good for yourself. There was indescribable sarcasm in Old Concubine Xue's words.

Princess Guojun was suddenly ashamed and embarrassed. But recently, in front of Old Concubine Xue, she has always been like this, and she has become accustomed to it.

At this time, Xin's mother came in again, saying that Mrs. Meng was visiting.

Princess Guojun was shocked again. She has a ghost in her heart. Immediately, I was worried that Mrs. Meng had heard something. Someone who came to the door to ask the teacher for sin.

Wanting to find an excuse to avoid it, Old Concubine Xue guessed what she was thinking, and said lightly: "If people have any doubts." If you don't see it, won't you not admit yourself? Let's see it, and listen to what Madame Meng has to say, it doesn't have to be for you to do that little thing, besides, you just have an idea, and you haven't put it into action, as long as you don't admit it, who can do what?"

Princess Guojun thought about it, so she ordered the maid to invite Mrs. Meng to the flower hall to serve tea, and she arrived later.

After changing her clothes and rearranging her makeup, Princess Guojun came out to see Mrs. Meng, and it was inevitable that it would be a little late, which made Mrs. Meng wait for a long time.

As a noble lady with a strict etiquette education, Princess Guojun first compensated Mrs. Meng as soon as she came out, "I'm really sorry to keep Mrs. Meng waiting, there was something wrong with me, I delayed, please forgive Mrs. Meng." ”

"It doesn't matter, I just happened to admire the decorations of the flower hall of the county king's mansion. Mrs. Meng smiled and said, "Princess Jiuwenguo is the daughter of everyone, and the furnishings of this flower hall are really unusual and unique, especially the few calligraphy and paintings on the wall, which are the works of several famous artists in this dynasty." ”

Madame Meng was falsely praised. Princess Guojun was modest, "This painting is the preference of our county prince, and it is also for everyone to give face, if Mrs. likes it, pick one back later." ”

Mrs. Meng waved her hand, "How can this work? After all, it is the favorite of the prince of the county, besides, our Meng family was originally a family of military generals, and we don't understand this, and the calligraphy and paintings hanging in our house are equivalent to pearls covered with dust." ”

"These calligraphy and paintings are meant to be appreciated, and our county prince likes calligraphy and painting, and he also likes to give them to those who appreciate them. Princess Guojun had the intention of making up for her previous mistakes, and tried her best to persuade Mrs. Meng to accept the calligraphy and paintings.

Mrs. Meng excused herself a few times, but she was still disrespectful, and then said, "By the way, why haven't you seen Lewen?

"Oh, she's gone to her uncle's house, and her cousin is about to leave the cabinet and go over and get together. Princess Guojun replied with a smile, in fact, Lewen was in a bad mood and went to her uncle's house to stay for a few days.

"That's it, it's really unfortunate, I also said that I haven't seen Lewen for a few days. Mrs. Meng said, feeling a little regretful.

"Yes, I knew that Madame was coming, so I would have brought Lewen back as soon as possible. Princess Guojun said politely.

"I don't know if it's Lewen's cousin who came out of the cabinet and who she married......" Mrs. Meng asked casually.

Princess Guojun answered them one by one, gossiping, and felt a little more relaxed, according to the meaning of the topic, Mrs. Meng didn't seem to be here to ask about the guilt, so it was good, but she was a little puzzled about the purpose of Mrs. Meng's trip.

The two of them are future in-laws, and it is nothing if they talk about going together, but she and Mrs. Meng are not all the way, and it is difficult to talk about going together, so Mrs. Meng will not come if she has nothing to do.

After asking about Le Wen's cousin, Mrs. Meng suddenly sighed, changed the topic, and said, "Our master has recently fallen and injured himself, otherwise he should have come to visit in person." ”

"What is the condition of this old man's injury? I heard that it is very serious? I also said that I will visit him in person in two days. "Princess Guojun sent someone to visit after Meng Ye fell and was injured, but after all, she was dissatisfied with the Meng family, and King Guojun was not in the house at this time, so she did not come to the door in person.

"The injury is quite serious, and the doctor said that he would recuperate for a while. Madame Meng said and wiped the corners of her eyes.

"Madame, don't worry too much, Jiren has his own natural appearance, and Master Meng will definitely be fine. Princess Guojun comforted, but she was a little disdainful in her heart, who doesn't know now, this Meng is also completely paralyzed, and Mrs. Meng still avoids the importance and says what to recuperate for a while, it is to cultivate for a lifetime.

"Princess Chengjun Jiyan, I hope so. Mrs. Meng said, wiped the corners of her eyes again, and forced a smile on her face, "Speaking of which, there is something that I am really embarrassed to do, but I must mention it, I hope that the princess of the county can be fulfilled." ”

"Madame has something to say, you and I are about to be in-laws, what can't you say?" Princess Guojun knew that Mrs. Meng must have come to the door for something, not to ask the teacher to ask for the crime, in order to cover up the previous matter, she planned to agree as long as Mrs. Meng's request was not too outrageous.

Mrs. Meng said: "That's the case, our lord was injured, so the whole family plans to take him back to his hometown to recuperate, originally the prince of the county is not in the mansion, we shouldn't mention this matter at this time, but the hometown is some distance from Yancheng, I don't know when I will be able to come back...... I thought, should I let Lewen pass through the door quickly and go back to his hometown to worship his ancestors together?"

"This ...... It's a little hasty, and our county prince is not here...... Besides, our two families are both families with heads and faces, and family affairs can't be too hasty. Princess Guojun didn't know how to refuse for a while, she was not happy with this family affair, and now she wanted to say that she had to marry her daughter in a hurry and follow the Meng family to other places, she was even more unwilling.

Mrs. Meng said: "Isn't this a matter of urgency? Our lord is like this, no one would have imagined that this time he will go back to his hometown to recuperate, at least two or three years, if he does not do family affairs at this time, I am afraid that it will be delayed." ”

In this way, Princess Guojun hesitated a little, and what Mrs. Meng said also made sense, if she didn't marry Le Wen at this time, the whole Meng family would go back to her hometown, and come back in two or three years, Le Wen would become an old girl, and Meng Guang was a young man, with strong blood and strength, and it was when there was a need for someone around him, so if she didn't marry her daughter at this time, if the Meng family accepted any concubines for their son, they would have to get an eldest son out.

For a while, Princess Guojun was in a dilemma, and she didn't know how to reply.

At this time, a maid came and whispered a few words in the ear of Princess Guojun.

Princess Guojun's face suddenly changed again, and she hurriedly said to Mrs. Meng: "Please sit down for a while, and I will come when I go." ”

"Okay, I'm just admiring the calligraphy and paintings of the Junwang Mansion. When Mrs. Meng saw Princess Guojun's expression like this, she knew that something must have happened, and it was not easy to ask, so she found a step for the other party to come down. (To be continued......)
