50. Heartbreak
As for Xun Yunshu, her gloomy and sad appearance Liu saw it in her eyes, and she didn't want the glory and wealth she had at her fingertips to dissipate, so she asked to see Princess Cui Yun.
For the Xun family, Cui Yun is still willing to meet, although she is not ready to win over the Xun family again, but Zhao Shen specially mentioned that if she wants her to take care of the Xun family, she is naturally not good to disobey.
So he replied to the post and asked the daughter of the Xun family to come to the door tomorrow. So at the same time, she also invited Yan Qiu to her courtyard, and directly said that King Ji's foreign family would come to the door tomorrow and ask Yan Qiu to accompany her.
At this time, Yan Qiu remembered Zhao Jin's fragile appearance a few days ago, and it was because of the appearance of his mother's concubine's family, which aroused his resentment against the current saint. Therefore, she has an impression of this Xun family, but she has been taking care of the Xun family, so she must go tomorrow.
However, I don't know what His Royal Highness's attitude is towards the Xun family, so she still treats it carefully.
On this day, Yan Qiu mentioned this matter to Zhao Jin as usual, Zhao Jin's always cold face actually frowned, and Yan Qiu thought that he was looking at flowers. When I looked at him again, I found that he looked cold again. Only then did she let go of the weirdness she had just now, and she was as usual.
After breakfast on the second day, Yan Qiu basked in the sun in the courtyard for a while, and then received news from Cui Yun that the female dependents of the Dao Xun family had arrived and invited her over.
Only then did she return to the house, change her clothes, put on her cloak, and went to Cui Yun.
In fact, it stands to reason that when King Ji travels to Youzhou, they should live in the post station, but Zhao Jin and Zhao Shen have a deep relationship, and Zhao Jin lives in Youwang's mansion.
Ning Yuanzhai was some distance away from the Nanyuan Mountain House where Cui Yun lived, but it was still something that Yan Qiu could bear, so she didn't take a soft sedan chair, but walked over with Cai Wei. Anyway, the speed of the soft sedan car is not that fast, maybe slower than her.
Along the way, Yan Qiu chatted with Minghua Caiwei for a few words, but soon arrived at Cui Yun's courtyard.
Minghua stepped forward at this time and led Yan Qiu to the main house. This was her first visit to Cui Yun's residence.
"Miss Yan, please inside, the princess is talking with the eldest grandmother and the second grandmother of Cui Mansion." Minghua left Yan Qiu outside, went in and made a report before opening the curtain and said.
Yan Qiu nodded and smiled: "There is Miss Lao Minghua." Then he went in with Caiwei.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw Cui Yun sitting in the first seat in the center, with two women sitting on the left, one on the right, and a few young girls in her hands.
Aren't these the girls Cui Yun took extra care of that day? Yan Qiu knew in his heart that at that time, His Royal Highness was already preparing to recognize the Xia family.
"Miss Yan, come and sit down. You're a double body, so be careful. Cui Yun smiled as gently as water, and said to Yan Qiu. On the other hand, he ordered Minghua to serve tea, and on the other hand, he introduced Yan Qiu.
"This is the daughter of the sixth brother's foreign family, I asked you to come over to meet today, after all, you are alone in the backyard of the sixth brother here."
Yan Qiu withdrew his hand, nodded to the few people below and smiled: "It turned out to be His Royal Highness's foreign family, that concubine is really rude." Last time I enjoyed the flowers, I didn't recognize a few girls from the Xun family, so don't be annoyed. ”
"It doesn't matter if Miss Yan doesn't know, after all, Miss Yan doesn't go out, so it's naturally rare." Liu smiled and answered. Without waiting for the second grandmother on the opposite side to speak, she returned first, which made He frown.
Yan Qiu choked, this is no problem, why does she feel uncomfortable when she listens to it?
He also had a bad face, she was happy to come to Youwangfu this time, it would be good if her daughter could become the concubine of King Ji, but she still felt that a woman's life was the most important, so her attitude towards this matter was not clear. Who knew that her sister-in-law had just met Miss Yan, and she choked on Miss Yan, which made He want to plug her mouth to the end.
If this is just a verbal attack on the Yan family, then there is no fear, but there is His Royal Highness King Ji behind the Yan family, if the Yan family blows a pillow wind, then their Xun family will be separated from His Royal Highness?
Therefore, in this matter, the most transparent one is the He family.
"Yes! How can this be blamed on Miss Yan? When you first came to Youzhou, you had a busy day, and then you became pregnant, so you must not be free. He hurriedly remedied. If she could, she wouldn't want to be with Liu. Liu's brain simply didn't know what to think, and he actually dared to sarcastically mock Yan, and he was not afraid of the princess's blame.
"This is Grandma Shuner." Cui Yun introduced, and then continued: "The girls below, presumably Miss Yan still remembers, so I won't introduce them one by one." ”
"Thank you, Princess."
"Speaking of which, I suddenly remembered that the last time we traveled to Fengshan, we met a young man, do you remember Miss Yan?" Cui Yun changed the topic, which made everyone feel a lot more comfortable.
"I remember, that son claims to be surnamed Xun, could it be that he is the son of the Xun family?" Yan Qiu smiled.
"Exactly, that is the eldest son of Grandma Xun, and the third girl of Xun is a dragon and phoenix fetus." Cui Yun shook the fan and looked at Xun Yunshu with a smile, with an inexplicable look in her eyes.
"I said how I saw the third girl in the morning, I saw her brother that day. This young man turned out to be His Royal Highness's cousin, no wonder Zhong Lingyuxiu, who was born, has a beautiful demeanor, and His Royal Highness the King of Youwang also praised it, and Grandma Xun taught it well. "Yan Qiu gives the Xun family a lot of face, after all, it is His Royal Highness's foreign family.
"Miss Yan praised it falsely." Although Liu is also proud of the excellence of his eldest son, he is so good. But the smugness on her face was obvious, which made He Shi frown.
This sister-in-law is too arrogant today, the excellent sons and daughters of Youzhou don't know how to go, Yan praised Jun Jing, but it was polite, she didn't take it seriously.
Liu had long known that He's face was not good, but she didn't want to look at her face at all. When she becomes the mother-in-law of His Royal Highness King Ji, what is she? When the time comes, I won't have to pick it up.
Thinking like this, Liu said in his mouth: "I don't know if His Royal Highness King Ji is here?" We, who are aunts, are here, and we should also go to see Your Highness. ”
Cui Yun heard that the smile on her face remained unchanged, and she said to Yan Qiu: "Miss Yan, since Grandma Xun wants to see His Royal Highness, why don't you take them there?" ”
Yan Qiu glanced at Cui Yun and couldn't figure out her intentions. But seeing the few girls sitting in the Shunfu below, there was more or less expectation in their eyes, plus the day before yesterday she mentioned the matter of accepting a side concubine for Her Royal Highness, Yan Qiu probably understood what she wanted to do.
"It's really unfortunate, Your Highness has something to do today, I'm afraid it's ......"
"It's just a meeting, and it won't take long, so Miss Yan doesn't have to excuse herself." Liu Shi looked excited, and hurriedly interrupted Yan Qiu's words, and at the same time looked at Yan Qiu's eyes a little unkindly.
Yan Qiu smiled dumbly, she had never seen such a faceless and skinless person come to the door to pimp. But since they want to meet, let's go!
"In that case, then Grandma Shi, come with me!" After speaking, he stood up and said to Cui Yun: "Princess, the concubine has retired first." ”
The Liu family and the others also got up and saluted, and then followed Yan Qiu out.
When all the people in the room left, Cui Yun picked up the teacup, the smile on her face remained unchanged, but she spit out two words coldly: "A group of fools." ”
Minghua and the maidservants behind him didn't seem to hear it, and stood quietly behind.
Before he arrived at Ning Yuanzhai, he saw Zhao Jin and Xu Lu coming here from a distance, Yan Qiu turned around with a smile and said, "I didn't expect His Highness to have returned." ”
When Zhao Jin saw Yan Qiu and them, he strode over, and before Yan Qiu could salute, he helped Yan Qiu. scolded in his mouth: "Why did it come out?" Be careful. The tone is extremely spoiling.
"Today, I heard that several of His Royal Highness's aunts and cousins are here, and the princess invited me to accompany them, so I came." Yan Qiu smiled at Zhao Jindao and let him hold his waist.
Hearing the man's low voice, Xun Yunshu quietly raised his head, but after seeing him and Yan Qiu's movements, he bit his lip.
"Oh! Two ...... Madame, rise up, all of you! Zhao Jin's voice hesitated slightly, after all, he suddenly recognized the foreign family, and he still felt a little weird, so he didn't call his aunt according to what Yan Qiu said.
"Multi-...... Thank you, Your Highness. At this time, Liu Shi was nervous and stammered, after all, Zhao Jin was extremely indifferent, except for Yan Qiu, the rest of the people felt a cold air.
"These are a few cousins of Xunfu, don't you think you've seen them." Yan Qiu turned to Zhao Jin and introduced.
Zhao Jin was looking at the girls of the Xun family behind him.
Seeing Zhao Jin's eyes, Xun Yunshu and the others all held their breath, His Royal Highness ...... Several people's hearts fluttered, revealing shy expressions.
Although Yan Qiu had a smile on his face, the hands inside his sleeves were clenched tightly.
The anger was a little stagnant, but Zhao Jin didn't seem to notice it, nodded lightly, and then said to Yan Qiu: "Liu Fenghua said that you need to raise a fetus, don't run around in the future." ”
Then he turned his head and said to the Liu family: "The Yan family is a little tired, this king will send her back first, and the ladies might as well go to the imperial sister-in-law first!" ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for a few people to reply, and said to Cai Wei behind him: "Cai Wei, send a few ladies to Nanyuan Mountain House." ”
Cai Wei held back the smile on her face and bowed, "A few ladies, please!" "Your Royal Highness didn't see that they came out of Princess You, and he also asked her to bring the Xun family back, which is too bad for the Xun family.
Liu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but was pulled by He. "Your Highness, Miss Yan, the concubine will retire first." His Highness obviously had no intention of aggravating.
But it's also the Xun family who don't want to be embarrassed, and they ran to the door to ask their master to bring them to see His Royal Highness, did the master really not see their little abacus?
"Yes." Facing such a high-ranking He, Zhao Jin nodded and responded.
Xun Yunshu's face was pale, His Highness didn't look at them, was she hopeless? The Yan family is all the Yan family, if it weren't for her, His Royal Highness would definitely not be like this.
The appearance of the two of them just now hurt Xun Yunshu's heart, and she kept asking in her heart: Yan is just an Israelite, and His Royal Highness actually ignored his aunt and cousin for her!
With the indignation in his heart, Xun Yunshu finally turned back with Cai Wei.
After the He family left, Zhao Jincai glanced at Yan Qiu and said, "How is it?" Are you satisfied? ”
"Satisfied." Yan Qiu saw that Xu Lu and the others all lowered their heads, and boldly reached out to hook Zhao Jin's palm with their little thumbs, smiling contentedly.
Seeing this, Zhao Jin stretched out his hand and knocked on Yan Qiu's head, and his tone was helpless: "I'll go back and settle accounts with you later." ”
Yan Qiu pulled Zhao Jin's sleeve and smiled flatteringly, Zhao Jin glanced at her, still looking unwilling to pay attention to her.
"Go down! Do as I say. ”
Xu Lu knew that he was talking to himself, so he didn't say anything and left.
He didn't go far, he looked at the man next to him, and they both understood the meaning in the other party's eyes.
"This is the Yan girl?" The man glanced back, his face thoughtful, remembering the smell he had just smelled......
