Xiao Baoer has no friends, whether in Northern Liao or Great Xia. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info Xuanjin is the only woman of the same age who has a good identity and a personality that can be eye-catching, and after a few days, there is a little more trust between the two and a lot less guarded.

She said: "My father did not allow me to marry Brother Xuan, and wanted me to go back to Northern Liao to inherit the throne, but I didn't want to." At first, I planned to use the identity of the princess to help Brother Xuan get back everything he should have, but later I found out that Brother Xuan was hiding some things from me...... I wonder if Brother Xuan would still treat me like he once did if he wasn't a princess. ”

In a few words, Xiao Baoer put aside the rhino incense and told her clearly about her psychological process of marrying or not marrying, leaving and returning.

Hearing this, Xuan Jin asked curiously: "Why don't you want to be the queen?" How many people dream of something, why are you not interested in it at all? ”

Xiao Bao'er smiled embarrassedly, "In my life, I want to have a man who spoil me and love me, and I have no ambition." ”

Xuan Jin sighed, understanding Xiao Bao'er's distress very well. With an identity like hers, no matter how she marries, there will always be things that have nothing to do with love in her marriage. It's hard enough to be a princess, and if it's a queen, it's even more difficult to find someone who really likes her. Even if there were, could she believe it?

In the mountains and forests next to Yedu, two wet women walked silently one after the other. The evening breeze blew, and several kinds of floral fragrances were sent into the noses of the two women with the wind, and they all said: "It's so fragrant!"

Once the silence was broken, the two returned to their previous modes of small talk.

She took the initiative to speak is Xuan Jin, she said: "I remember this fragrance, and I will make a sachet for you another day." ”

"Thank you. After you go back tonight, how will you face Wu Guo? Need Brother Xuan's help? ”

Xiao Bao'er's question is very realistic, since Xuan Jin knows what Wu Guo did tonight, there will definitely be an estrangement after marriage. The purpose of this marriage is Xuanhua In order to win over the martial family, if you want to regret the marriage, you can count on Xuanhua, but you might as well expect Xuanze.

Xuan Jin shook his head and said chicly: "I don't know what Northern Liao women think about marriage. In the Central Plains, most of the women of my status and husband are separated from each other after getting married. Marriage is for us the exchange and union of interests, and feelings are put last to the table. ”

Xiao Baoer asked, "Don't you want to fight for yourself?" ”

Xuan Jin shook his head again, and said a little slyly, "After this incident, Wu Guo will definitely think of other ways to make up for today's mistakes." After marriage, as long as he doesn't marry a concubine and doesn't raise an outer room, this crime is not in vain. ”

Xiao Bao'er shouted at her incomprehensibly, "You almost died, and your life is just to beg a man not to marry a concubine and not to raise an outer room, this is too undignified!" ”

"Xiaoxiao, even without you, the second brother will win, right?" Without waiting for Xiao Bao'er to answer, Xuan Jin said to himself: I have seen early on that the eldest brother is not as good as the second brother, and it has become more and more obvious over the years. The eldest brother is still worried about the position of Lord Song, and what the second brother wants is more than that.

"Xiaoxiao, I wish I had married earlier, so as not to see their brothers kill each other. The eldest brother is my own brother, and the second brother treats me well, no matter who is the Lord of Song, my life can go on, but things are not as simple as the position of the Lord of Song, right? ”

Xiao Baoer comforted, "Don't guess, it's not as complicated as you think." ”

"Xiaoxiao, if it is only the position of the Lord of Song, there is no need for the eldest brother to marry Yan Zhao, most of them can get the support of the court by finding a girl from a family. After he married Yan Zhao, because there are soldiers in Xisu, why do you say that the eldest brother wants soldiers? ”

There will be no fools in the center of power, and Xuan Jin is not stupid. It's just that my identity is limited, and there are too few things I can do, so it's better to be happy every day.

Seeing that the topic was getting more and more serious, Xiao Bao'er also let go, she asked, "Can you tell me what is going on between Bai Songmei and your mother?" ”

She remembered that in the dream of rhino incense, Bai Songmei was originally the wife of Song Zhu Ming Media, but when she got married, she was replaced by her half-sister Bai Yingxue because of her status as a concubine. Lord Song knew all this, not only did not expose the matter, but summoned Bai Songmei as a slave to Lord Song's mansion.

Bai Songmei, who was supposed to be his wife, gave birth to a concubine, and Bai Yingxue, who impersonated her, gave birth to a concubine. According to the primogeniture system, Xuan Ze lost the right to inherit the throne the moment he was born.

If this is the case, when Bai Yingxue replaced Bai Songmei, why didn't the latter resist? Why did Lord Song tolerate this happening?

All kinds of questions have been lingering in Xiao Baoer's mind for a long time, and when she learned that the Black and White Pavilion had a connection with Bai Songmei, she broke off her mind to ask for answers from Xuan Ze, and vaguely felt that the truth in Xuan Ze's mouth must be different from the facts.

If you ask someone about this, it is estimated that everyone will give a different answer.

Xiao Bao'er asked Xuan Jin if he really chose the right person, the latter has a lively personality and can get along with everyone in the house. For this old matter, her curiosity is no less than Xiao Baoer, she has asked many people, heard many different statements, and restored a past event that the parties did not want to mention.

The Bai family has no concubines, Bai Songmei and Bai Yingxue are both concubines.

Lord Song chose Bai Songmei as his wife because she was the best of the school-age women of several families at that time. Not only does it look good, but it is also a financial saint.

Song is rich, as the wife of the Song lord, everything can be bad, but financial management can't be bad.

The marriage between the two parties has already been negotiated, and the six-rite process has passed more than halfway, and at this time, Bai Songmei said that she would not marry. When asked about the reason, she said that if she has a sweetheart, if she wants to force marriage, she would rather die!

The Bai family had no choice but to temporarily change the bride and let the young Bai Yingxue marry the Song lord, only saying that Bai Songmei was suffering from a vicious disease.

At this point, everyone is happy, Bai Yingxue is good-looking, cute and cute, and Lord Song also likes it. But there is one thing that Bai Yingxue is never as good as Bai Songmei, she can't manage money, and she can't teach her family no matter how she teaches, which can give Lord Song a lot of headaches.

After Xuanhua was born, Lord Song planned to marry another. It is really forced by the situation, and many accounts in the house can only be handed over to relatives to take care of, and they dare not hand it over to outsiders.

The Bai family naturally didn't want Lord Song to marry another, but it just so happened that the man Bai Songmei liked suddenly disappeared, and Bai Songmei didn't see anyone come to the door to propose marriage for two whole years.

Living in the persecution of the family, as well as her own disappointment in the man she loves, Bai Songmei married the Song Lord's Mansion.

Lord Song had already known the true reason for the change of relatives through Bai Yingxue, and was naturally full of disgust for this kind of woman whose mind was not on him, so that he did not marry Bai Songmei, but asked the Bai family to send people directly to the mansion through the back door. This kind of treatment is worse than marrying a concubine.

Bai Songmei's ability is extraordinary, and after arriving, she will soon be able to take care of the hidden wealth in the mansion smoothly.

Lord Song loves and hates her, loves her well, and looks good. hates that there are people in her heart, and she dares to repent of her marriage.

Xuan Ze was born, and Lord Song thought that he could use this to save Bai Songmei's heart, but he didn't want Bai Songmei to remain cold to him, so he could only transfer his resentment towards Bai Songmei to Xuan Ze. Ignore this concubine, ignore him, and let him fend for himself.

It is also strange to say that the Lord of Song spent a lot of effort to cultivate Xuanhua, but the latter lacked the domineering and pattern of the princes of one side. But Xuan Ze, who doesn't care about it, changes every year, and has a different temperament since he was very young, but has become the person who is most like the Lord of Song.

Xiao Baoer is at the age of love first, she will not blame Bai Songmei's behavior, she will only deeply pity Xuanze.

The man who wanted to come to Bai Songmei and wait should be Mei Shiren, which is why the Black and White Pavilion would support Xuanze.

Does Lord Song know about Bai Songmei and Mei Shiren? The man he hated often came and went to the Song Lord's Mansion, lived under his nose, and even held the money he sent out every month.

A bold idea appeared in Xiao Bao'er's mind, maybe Lord Song also had dealings with the Black and White Pavilion, which was the reason why Mei Shiren had to wear a mask after entering the mansion......

Does Xuan Ze know about this past? What kind of feelings does he have for Mei Shiren? Or is there no feeling, only reciprocity?

Xiao Baoer is very lazy, and she doesn't want to think about things that she can't figure out. She put away her chaotic thoughts, stopped an angler's carriage with Xuanjin, and returned to Muchuan with a few drunks.

In the middle of the moon, if it were in other cities within the territory of Great Xia, there would have been a curfew at this hour.

A curfew is a city gate that locks the gates and forbids anyone from entering or leaving the city. The key to the city gate was to be handed over to the magistrate's office, that is, to the general who defended the city, and even the highest-ranking civil official in the city had to go out of the city on urgent business at night, and he had to apply for the key from the general who defended the city.

At the same time, fences should also be erected at the intersections of the main streets, with gates open and cards at the doors, and "card rooms" set up, which are guarded by government officials and are not allowed to pass. Except for official business such as delivering letters to the government, or buying medicine for marriage, funeral, or illness, you can walk with the permission of the street patrolman, but you are not allowed to go out of the city.

Muchuan is different from other cities, there is no curfew here, and you can enter and exit freely at any time, just ask the city guards to check the pass. There used to be a curfew here, and the city gate was closed at nine o'clock every night, which made the giants in the city miserable, and there was no money to spend, and it was always a little greasy to feast at home every day. In order to keep the rich people entertained, all the gambling houses in Huafang were moved out of the city, and the rich families had to hire a large number of guards and bodyguards in order to return to the city safely.

One summer, he went to Song Land to escape the summer, and he also wanted to learn from the rich to play outside the city. The Lord of Song arranged a hundred guards for him, and the Son of Heaven felt that the battle was too big, and for fear of scaring the others, he took the initiative to reduce it to fifty.

After leaving the city, the Son of Heaven had a lot of fun.

When I left a flower shop, I saw the lights in the wild woods stretching for dozens of miles like a long snake, and at first glance I thought I was surrounded by enemies. After asking Lord Song, he learned that all the bodyguards waiting in the forest were the bodyguards invited by various giants, and each person only brought a few dozen people, adding up to thousands and hundreds.

Xia Zi returned to the city and calculated, there were so many rich families in Song Land, if every family had hundreds of guards, did it mean that Song Land inexplicably had tens of thousands of "troops" that were not weak?

What's the matter! Most of the guards in the capital are only tens of thousands, and they have to rely on the imperial court to support them. There are so many people out of thin air without a penny from Lord Song, and Xia Zi always feels that the dragon chair under his ass is a little unstable.

Without waiting to return to Dadu, Xia Zi authorized Song Land not to have a curfew, and gave it the name of the city that never sleeps. Encourage flower shops, gambling houses, and liquor shops to all move back to the city and concentrate on a certain place to operate.

As soon as Xiao Bao'er and his entourage arrived at the city gate, the little maid who was guarding there shouted at them: "Two aunts and grandmothers, you can be regarded as waiting for you!" As he spoke, he let a soft sedan chair carry the two to the inn, and the whole process was as fast as lightning.

Fuyuan Inn, Xiao Baoer casually said this to Zhu Zhigao, he really booked a room here. The house has already prepared rouge gouache, changed clothes, and is considerate to the extreme.

Xuan Jin didn't know that this was Zhu Zhigao's doing, and said in amazement, "Xiaoxiao, you are so powerful, this has been guessed." ”

Xiao Bao'er is inconvenient to talk about the past between her and Zhu Zhigao, for fear that Xuan Jin will ask about Yao Xitong, and she doesn't want to mention this person now.

The two bathed and changed their clothes, and then quietly returned to the Song Lord's Mansion.

Seeing Xuan Jin stuffing the silver ticket into the hands of the menzi, Xiao Baoer asked curiously: "Last time, you ignored the young menzi, did he go to the Song lord to complain?" ”

Xuan Jin said: "Isn't it, I don't eat soft and hard, and every time I am caught returning late, I have to inform my father, so I am often grounded." As soon as the conversation changed, she said happily, "It is really a wicked man, I heard that he was sick, and he vomited and diarrhea and lay on the bed and couldn't move." ”

Xiao Bao'er was secretly frightened, Mei Shi was really fast, fortunately Mianmian was dead, otherwise I really don't know who the person lying on the bed would be. can't blame him for being careful, if he lets Lord Song know that he is Mei Shiren, the master of the Black and White Pavilion, or Bai Songmei's lover, things will be in trouble.

The butcher didn't show up overnight, Xiao Bao'er estimated that he was chased very badly, what if his martial arts were good, this was the territory of the Zhu Wu family.

Xiao Bao'er had just finished punching, and a maid said that the old lady was invited, and she followed the maid to the old lady's courtyard full of doubts.

Bai Songmei lived in the Buddha hall, and the place where the Song lord worshiped the Buddha did not have a special hall to welcome guests except for the side room.

When Xiao Bao'er arrived, Bai Songmei was standing in front of the Buddhist hall waiting for her.

Although she is called an old lady, Bai Songmei is not old, she looks like she is in her early thirties, and there is not a trace of wrinkles on her smooth face. It's just that he is dressed up relatively old, wearing a dark blue clean face straight-collar placket robe, and a dark purple plain silk. The bun is simple, there are no ornaments, and the only bright color on the whole body is a jade ring.

Xiao Bao'er greeted her, she silently moved to the side to avoid it, and waited for all the maids to leave, before she said: "The old body can't afford the princess's gift, don't do it in the future." ”

The hall was quiet, with a two-tall Buddha statue sitting behind a heavy curtain. Sandalwood curls up on the table in front of the Buddha, and the old blue brick floor and faded futon seem to tell Bai Songmei's piety.

The quiet and peaceful atmosphere did not infect Xiao Bao'er, she already knew that Bai Songmei was not a good person, and she really couldn't afford her to salute as a person who worshiped Buddha and worshiped ghosts. But in words, she still said politely, "You are Brother Xuan's mother, and you should salute." ”

Bai Songmei grabbed the Buddha beads on the incense case and said slowly: "Mianmian is gone, I have asked people to look for it for a long time, it is really alive and dead, and there is no corpse, may I ask if you did it?" ”

Xiao Bao'er replied cheerfully, "Yes! ”
