King Ding is now powerful and powerful, and the benefits that befriending Princess Ding can bring are too great, and it can change people's lives, Li thought of this, and couldn't help but ask Old Concubine Xue: "Auntie, do you want to send something to Dingwang's Mansion to congratulate?" Or do you want your nephew to go on a trip in person?"

Old Concubine Xue said lightly: "Congratulatory gifts must be given, but you don't need to send too valuable, just be ordinary, you don't have to go over in person, there must be a lot of people who will congratulate you, there is no elder in this Dingwang Mansion, and it seems that you don't know each other when you go to let Princess Ding come out to work and greet her." ”

Li Shi thought for a while, and then asked: "Shouldn't the nephew and daughter-in-law go over and maybe help entertain the guests?" Compared to our relatives, the last meeting was also the nephew's daughter-in-law, and now in the name of the elders, they come forward to help take care of the trivial matters in the process of cleaning up." ”

"Not necessarily. Old Concubine Xue shook her head slowly, "This time is another hurdle for Princess Ding, it is naturally good to take a step, if you can't get through...... At this time, those who can help can certainly get a great favor, but the risks are also predictable, so let's not be greedy for this credit. ”

Li Shi showed obvious disappointment, she is not so eager for quick success, the reason why she is so positive this time is because her daughter is almost at the age of saying marriage, seeing that the princess of the county is now talking about the difficult appearance of marriage, she can't help but worry about her daughter, their husband and wife are mediocre, can only rely on the Guojun Palace, fortunately, the children are more smart and clever, but in 2 This Yancheng, there is no backer, whether it is to embark on an official career or to marry a child, it is more troublesome.

The noblewoman of the inner house interacted, and she was attached to the old lady Xue. But now that Old Concubine Xue is also old, she has no energy to help with everything, if she can make one or two more high-powered nobles, it will also be of great help to her son's career and daughter's marriage.

Old Concubine Xue knew Li's anxiety, and recently the nobles in the city had pulled Lang to match in order to escape from their relatives, so that Li was anxious, although Li's daughter Yuzhu was only eleven years old, and it was not her turn to be with her relatives, but it was quite difficult for her to look at her relatives, and Li was not good at communicating. The nephew is just a petty officer. When they were there, the two of them could still live in the Guojun Palace, if they had a ...... that day I'm afraid that the king and his wife won't help take care of them.

There is nothing that can be done about Old Concubine Xue, and the Li couple are too mediocre. It's better to be obedient. It's good to be able to run the city for a while with your own guidance. is also old, and the nephews and grandchildren are estimated to be unable to manage it, and it depends on them.

The Li family wants to rely on the Dingwang Mansion, and the idea is right. But where is the Dingwang Mansion so easy to rely on, I don't know how to die if I am not careful, a little friendship is enough, but it is not necessary to get too close, and their husband and wife have no ability to deal with the dangers that come with it.

was splashed with a basin of cold water by Old Concubine Xue, and the Li family came out disappointed.

Out of the small courtyard where the old concubine Xue lived, the Li family was a little depressed, so he wanted to go back to his home directly, when his father-in-law and the old county king were brothers, so they were originally a family, and the mansion was connected together, but there was a narrow alley in the middle, but unfortunately having a title is not the same as not having a title, and now people are still prominent county king's mansions, and they, if there is no one to shelter, I am afraid that they will not be able to live in this area.

The place where the powerful in Yancheng gather is just such a place, there are constantly new nobles rising, and there are also new princes who grow up and need to open a mansion to live, and they can't let these people live in the suburbs, so the declining nobles can only move people to the place, and the clever ones will take advantage of the time when there is nothing to do to sell the house at a high price, and the dull ones will wait for the royal family to come to discuss letting them make room, and give them a mansion that is about the same size but the location is remote, can they still bargain with the royal family?

Her husband is just a petty official attached to the Guojun Palace, and the current Guojun King is gradually unable to speak in the court, and the prince looks like he is not sensible, and his relationship with their family is also a little estranged, and even the Princess of Guojun is dissatisfied with the old lady Xue, and then she is also a little angry with them who are close to the old lady Xue, so it is impossible to rely on the Guojun Palace.

Li was thinking about his thoughts, and he didn't pay attention to a beautiful little maid in front of him, and saluted her with a smile, "Hello Mrs. Li." ”

Li Shi was taken aback, took a step back, fortunately was supported by his maid, Rao is so, it can be regarded as a little ugly, so he is a little annoyed.

The little maid also knew that she was in trouble, so she hurriedly knelt down, "The slave and maid deserve to die, please forgive the lady." ”

Li is not such a bitter person, since the little maid admitted her mistake, she would not hold on to people for this little thing, so she said: "That's it, walk carefully in the future, get up." ”

The little maid got up and explained: "Madam, the slave maid is waiting in front of the princess of the county, called Song'er, the princess of the county invites you to come over for a gathering, and the slave and maid rushed to the old lady's courtyard before hearing the old lady and her sister say that the lady had just left, and the slave and maid were afraid that they would not be able to catch up, so they copied the path and disturbed the lady, please forgive the lady." ”

"Do you know what the princess of the county is looking for me?" Li frowned, she and the princess of Guojun did not have a friendship of drinking tea and chatting about nothing, and the princess of Guojun must have something to do with her.

Song'er lowered her head and said, "This slave doesn't know. ”

Li Shi looked at Song'er's thirteen or fourteen-year-old age and her face was very raw, obviously an inconspicuous little maid, there were so many big maids and grandmothers around Princess Guojun, but let such a little maid who didn't know anything come to find herself, obviously she didn't respect people very much.

Although his heart was a little twisted, the Li family still didn't want to have a grudge with Princess Guojun, so under the leadership of Song'er, he moved to the Shi'an Courtyard where Princess Guojun was located.

Princess Guojun sat on the couch, dressed in a homely dress, the light blue satin cotton jacket was not embroidered a little plain, and it looked similar to what Li was wearing, but a pair of purple jade bracelets on her wrists were particularly dazzling, this was her consistent dress, and she was not dressed too deliberately and gorgeously in front of people with lower status than her, but there must be a valuable ornament on her body to distance herself.

Although the Li family is not a very smart person, he has been reminded by Old Concubine Xue, and he also knows that Princess Guojun's approach is not much different from pretending to be gorgeous in the eyes of Old Concubine Xue.

Princess Guojun politely invited Li to sit down, and ordered the maid to serve tea, and then brought out a few exquisite snacks, saying that it was a newly developed dim sum in the kitchen, and invited Li to taste it.

According to past experience, the more polite the princess of Guojun is, the more she will ask for something, and with the politeness, the difficulty of the things she asks will increase.

With a heart of vigilance, Li's mind was not on the snack at all, but the princess of Guojun asked her to taste it, let her comment, she also said two words, after all, they are all daughters-in-law, and no one has missed this stutter, and a decent comment can be said with an open mouth.

After saying that, I slowly talked about my children, as a mother when I talked about my children, there was always a common topic, Li thought that his children were still young, and there was nothing taboo to talk about children, so he gradually unloaded his defense, in addition to the children had nothing to calculate, but also because the princess of Guojun talked about her daughter Lewen, sighed and looked at the right candidate, regretted not looking at each other two years earlier, and now in a hurry, it is not easy to find a good candidate.

Princess Guojun was in a hurry to tell her daughter about her marriage for the sake of her daughter's not being selected and kissed, although almost everyone in the city is doing this now, but after all, it was not pierced, and no one dared to say that it was to quickly book a family for her daughter in order not to be selected.

Li has always thought that Princess Guojun treats her as an outsider, and she will not discuss anything with her on weekdays, but today it is unusual, thinking that she vomited bitterness, and even the reason for hurriedly saying that she has been taboo has also revealed some of the reasons for her affinity, but it seems close, Li himself has a daughter, and it is easier for mothers to sympathize with people who are also mothers.

People's hearts softened, and their defenses became weaker, and slowly the topic went around to Li's daughter Yuzhu, and after Princess Guojun provoked Li's family to echo her worries, she suddenly said: "Yuzhu is eleven now, and it's not small to say that it's small, and it's time to order it now." ”

"yes, I just didn't see the right child. The Li family was dizzy by the topic of Princess Guojun before, and he said casually after agreeing with it.

Princess Guojun immediately answered, "If my brother and sister don't have a plan yet, I know that there is a more suitable one." ”

"Who's home?" Li asked casually again, and then his vigilance suddenly rose again, and secretly said that it was bad, why was he circumvented, and after making trouble for a long time, the princess of Guojun had hit the idea of Yuzhu's family affairs, and she was really careless.

Princess Guojun didn't smile and said kindly: "Speaking of which, my younger brothers and sisters should also be familiar with it, and the princess's mother's family, Meng's family." ”

The smile on Li's face suddenly froze, who said that she was familiar with the Meng family? She had only met Princess Ding twice, and she had not even stepped into the threshold of the Meng family, so even if she was familiar, there was no one in Yancheng who was not familiar with anyone.

Princess Guojun didn't seem to see the change in the expression on Li's face, and continued to take care of herself, "This princess's younger brother Meng Guang is now fourteen years old, I heard that he is very good in the army, and his future is immeasurable, many people in the city want to marry the Meng family, but the Meng family's vision is also high now, and they don't look down on ordinary people, no, I think of you Yuzhu, you are really a good family." ”

Li Shi was shocked for a long time, and finally found his voice back, and said: "This family of the Meng family's military generals has nothing to do with our family, although our lord's official position is small, after all, he is also a civil official, I'm afraid this is not suitable, right?"

"What's wrong with this? The civil and military just complement each other, I heard that what the Meng family wants to find is a well-informed girl. Princess Guojun was obviously fully prepared, and lowered her voice, "Brother and sister, think about it, this princess is pregnant, once she gives birth to a concubine and sits firmly in the position of the princess, can the young master of the Meng family, who is the brother-in-law of King Ding, have a bad future?
