The feeling of harmony among the family of three is really good, so that Prince Le and the princess are reluctant to let Huangfu Yongning and Ah Hei go back to the house, so she ordered someone to clean up the guest room of Zezhiyuan, and she wants to keep Huangfu Yongning and Ah Hei in the palace for a few more days.

Qi Jinghuan naturally couldn't ask for it anymore, Huangfu Yongning was a little hesitant, if she and Ah Hei lived in the palace, only her father and brother would be left in the Dingbei Hou Mansion, and the family would be reunited not long ago, and Huangfu Yongning was really reluctant in his heart.

Qi Jinghuan understood Huangfu Yongning's thoughts, so he said to his mother: "Mother, yesterday my son saw Ze'er from the Yiwu Mansion, this kid heard that A-Ning had a tiger, so he wanted to come and see it, and the son had to coax him to post to the Yiwu Mansion another day, so he coaxed the kid." You see, if Ming'er asks the old lady of Yiwu to bring Ze'er and them to our palace as guests, it can also fulfill Ze'er's wish. ”

Prince and Concubine Le understood after thinking about it, the widow of the Yiwu Mansion with two minor children was indeed inconvenient to be a guest in the Dingbei Hou Mansion, where there were no women except Huangfu Yongning, and it was the best choice to hold a banquet in the palace.

"Okay, then let someone go to the next post, Yongning, you and Ah Hei will stay with me, and it's not too late for the guests to return to the house after the banquet." Seeing that Huangfu Yongning didn't really want to stay, Prince Le and Princess Le smiled and persuaded her.

Huangfu Yongning thought about it, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to your arrangement, concubine." ”

Prince Le and Princess Le smiled with satisfaction: "That's good, the weather is good today, Huan'er Yongning, let's take Ah Hei to visit the garden, this house is small, don't detain Ah Hei." ”

Ah Hei really fell into the eyes of Prince Le and the princess, otherwise she would not have thought so carefully.

Qi Jinghuan picked up Huangfu Yongning and the tiger she raised in the early morning and soon spread in the palace, Concubine Li got the news, and immediately went to the room of the third girl, Qi Jingshu, and said to her who was doing needlework: "Third girl, the county lord of Pingrong is here, you quickly pack up and rush to Zezhiyuan to greet them." ”

Qi Jingshu's white little face flushed slightly, shook her head and whispered: "The mother concubine has not been summoned, how can I rush over." ”

"My silly girl, hey, now there is only one girl in the house, how can you not show up when a female guest comes, not to mention that the county lord is your future sister-in-law, you can't put your sister-in-law's score, and a good relationship with the county lord is the most important thing. Look, you're making a belt for the county lord, if you have a heart, you should let people know. Otherwise, it will be in vain. ”

"Don't say that, Sister Yongning is very good to me, I am very grateful to her, and I don't give her needlework to please her." The little girl's face flushed, obviously a little embarrassed.

"Okay, good, you're not trying to please her, you're just trying to be nice to her. Since you are going to be good, good sister is here, shouldn't you go and see her? Concubine Li really didn't have a problem with this shy and introverted daughter, so she had to soften her voice and coax slowly.

"Well, my daughter understands, and my daughter will go over." Qi Jingshu thought about it, and she really wanted to screw her chin, so she followed Concubine Li's words and went to the inner room to refreshe up.

Just when Concubine Li persuaded her daughter, Concubine He and Concubine Xu were also making their own calculations. In the year, their daughters have offended the palace to some extent, and the palace is much colder to the two aunts and grandmothers who marry outside, which makes the two side concubines feel extremely uneasy, but they can't find a suitable opportunity to bridge this rift. I think that the prince will not embarrass his two aunts and grandmothers in front of the future princess.

Concubine Chen and Concubine He made up their minds, and immediately sent their henchmen to their daughter's house, saying that they had to let them go back to their parents' house quickly.

Prince and Concubine Le were about to go to the garden with their son and future daughter-in-law, as well as Ah Hei, who she regarded as her grandson, when Chunying suddenly came in and whispered a few words in Prince Le's ear, it turned out that Qi Jingshu did not rush over, but ordered the maid to come over and talk back, asking the concubine if she allowed her to come to the future sister-in-law to say goodbye.

Under the guidance of Qi Jinghuan without showing any traces, Prince and Concubine Le had a much better impression of Qi Jingshu, a concubine, not to mention that she is the only girl in the palace now, and Prince and Concubine Le are idle and willing to give Qi Jingshu some face.

"Come here if you want to, it's all a family, and it's also right to be close to the fragrance." Prince Le said with a smile, Chunying hurriedly went out to reply, Concubine Li and Qi Jingshu were secretly relieved when they heard that the concubine allowed them to go over, and Concubine Li hurriedly sent her daughter out.

"Mother, Brother Wang, Sister Yongning." Qi Jingshu soon came to the upper room of Zezhi Garden and greeted Prince Le and the other three people.

"No courtesy, three girls, this is all your own family, and you don't have to be so formal, this palace is taking your brother and sister-in-law and Ah Hei to visit the garden together, you can go with it." Prince Le and Princess Le smiled and said, she deliberately mentioned Ah Hei, which showed that Ah Hei really entered her heart.

"Ah-hei? Mother, I don't know who this Ah Hei is? The daughter ......, "Because Ah Hei is full of food and drink at this time, he is resting at the feet of Huangfu Yongning, it is paralyzed on all fours and sticks to the ground, and it also hides the huge tiger head in the hem of Huangfu Yongning's robe, so Qi Jingshu thought it was a tiger skin cushion, but he didn't expect it to be a live tiger." She only said that Ah Hei was a foreign man, and she couldn't help but blush.

"Hehe, Ah Hei is a tiger raised by your sister-in-law, and she couldn't be more well-behaved." Prince Le and Concubine Le looked at Ah Hei at the feet of Huangfu Yongning, her eyes were full of love, and she really treated Ah Hei as a grandson.

"What...... Tiger! Qi Jingshu couldn't help but exclaim, and her little face turned white with fright.

Huangfu Yongning bent down and gently stroked the hem of his robe, pushed out Ah Hei, who was too lazy to even move his ears, and said with a smile: "Ah Hei, don't sleep lazy, get up and say hello to the third girl...... Don't go over, just say hello here. ”

Ah Hei stood up on the spot, shaking his body and about to rush to Qi Jingshu, who was pale and trembling legs, but was grabbed by Huangfu Yongning and grabbed the fur on his neck and dragged him alive.

Ah Hei turned his head and glanced at his master sadly, its neck was full of itchy flesh, and it was most afraid of being caught. That is, there is no problem for Huangfu Yongning to catch it, if it is replaced by someone else, Ah Hei will turn his head and bite down.

Huangfu Yongning let go of his hand with a smile, and patted Ah Hei's head with his hand, Ah Hei lazily lay down next to Huangfu Yongning, raised his right front paw and beckoned to Qi Jingshu, which could be regarded as a perfunctory greeting.

"Oh my God...... It...... How can it understand human speech? Seeing that Ah Hei was obedient like a big cat, the tiger had a small sad expression on his face, and his expression couldn't be more vivid. Qi Jingshu's pale little face gradually turned bloody, and she screamed in surprise.

"Ah Hei understands everything, and he is very smart." Prince Le explained with a smile, her tone full of pride, as if she was boasting about her precious grandson.

"That's amazing!" Qi Jingshu admired it from the bottom of her heart, and had the heart to step forward to look at Ah Hei, but she was a little scared, so she could only watch from afar.

Prince and Princess Le were in a very good mood at this time, and when she saw that the concubine was holding a very beautiful embroidered waist seal in her hand, she asked with a smile: "Three girls, what are you holding in your hand?" ”

Qi Jingshu hurriedly bowed down and replied: "If you go back to your mother's concubine, this is the waist seal that her daughter made for Sister Yongning." Please take a look. After that, she wanted to hand over the belt to Chunying and present it to Prince Le and Princess Le.

Prince and Concubine Le waved her hand and said, "No need, the three girls will take it directly." ”

Qi Jingshu was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward, holding the waist seal with both hands. Prince and Concubine Le took it and looked at it carefully, nodded and said, "It's done well, the needlework of the three girls is getting better and better, it can be seen that she has worked hard." Three girls, just do this needlework, people like us don't point to what to do with needlework, and do less needlework in the future, so as not to bare your eyes, and your daughter's family can live a few loose days in her mother's house, and you don't have to worry too much about yourself. ”

Qi Jingshu hurriedly lowered her head and claimed that it was, her eyes were slightly red, and she was very moved. She has been shy and sensitive since she was a child, so she can naturally hear whether her mother's words are sincere or just face-saving.

"Okay, let's send it to your sister Yongning." Prince Le's concubine saw that her very ordinary words moved the concubine so much, and her tone became softer and softer.

Qi Jingshu slowly walked to Huangfu Yongning's side a little timidly, and saw that Ah Hei didn't even move his tail coiled on the ground, so she felt a little more steady, and quickly reached out to send the waist seal to Huangfu Yongning's hands.

Huangfu Yongning took the waist seal and took a serious look, it was a light silver and purple tribute satin as the base, embroidered with silver and gold two-color ruyi cloud pattern, about three inches wide exquisite waist seal. She smiled and said, "Thank you Jingshu, the embroidery is so beautiful, I like it very much." ”

Qi Jingshu smiled embarrassedly, her eyes brightened a lot, and she said softly: "Sister likes it, it's good to be a fire phoenix." Do you want me to give my sister a try? ”

Qi Jinghuan saw that his sister was a little uncomfortable, so he smiled and said, "A-Ning, try it, I think this waist seal matches your clothes very well." ”

Huangfu Yongning naturally didn't agree, so he and Qi Jingshu went to the back to change the waist seal. The master got up, Ah Hei also stood up, and Huangfu Yongning saw that Qi Jingshu was still a little scared, so he patted Ah Hei's head and said: "Ah Hei, you stay, I will come back in a while, obedient, don't be naughty!" ”

Ah Hei rolled his eyes very humanely, walked to Qi Jinghuan's side with a twist, lay down at his feet, and only used his butt in the direction of Huangfu Yongning, looking at Prince Le's concubine, he couldn't be happy, pointed at Ah Hei and smiled: "This little thing is really amazing......

After a while, Huangfu Yongning and Qi Jingshu came back, she had already changed into Qi Jingshu's embroidered waist seal, the waist seal was really very suitable, especially in line with Huangfu Yongning's temperament, and it was not in vain Qi Jingshu's thoughts, usually the women's waist seals are embroidered with flowers and plants, and no one embroidered Ruyi cloud pattern.

Prince Le and Princess Le appreciated it, and then took her son, future daughter-in-law, concubine, and Ah Hei to visit the garden together. Prince Le's Mansion covers a huge area, and there are three large gardens and seven or eight small gardens in the palace alone.

These days, the spring plum blossoms in the plum garden of the palace are gorgeous, it is the best time to enjoy the flowers, Prince Le and the princess walked to the plum garden, along the way, Ah Hei ran back and forth, tilted his head to look at the fat koi under the nine-curved railing, and jumped up to flutter the big butterfly flying in the air, or pounced on the body of Huangfu Yongning, and the coquettish one time to carry and one time to hug, it will really treat itself as a baby.

"Oh my God......" Seeing Huangfu Yongning easily hugging Ah Hei, who was two big with her, Prince Le and Concubine Qi Jingshu couldn't help but exclaim. It's not that they don't know that Huangfu Yongning has great strength. But if you know it, you know, the impact when you see it with your own eyes is still quite huge.

Ah Hei is very happy, this product definitely has the potential to go crazy, Huangfu Yongning is unconditionally accustomed to Ah Hei on non-principled issues, and has always been to hug and carry it, and to be coquettish Although coquettish, if you connive at Ah Hei, Huangfu Yongning is definitely the number one.

Prince Le, Princess Le, and Qi Jingshu's eyes were straight. Even if they saw it with their own eyes, they still couldn't believe their eyes, that behemoth was really a tiger, don't be just fake, how can a tiger be better than people. Look at that coquettish and stupid look, where does it look like a tiger!

Qi Jinghuan looked at all kinds of coquettishness, hated to stick to Huangfu Yongning's body and couldn't get down, and his heart was soaked in the old vinegar vat, which is called a sour! He glared at Ah Hei gloomily, and kept shouting in his heart: "Stinky Ah Hei go away, she is my Ah Ning!" ”

Huangfu Yongning made a fuss with Ah Hei for a while, then patted it on the head, and said in a good voice: "Okay, don't play tricks anymore, come down and go by yourself." I ate so much meat just now, and if you don't move, you will be fat and balls, beware that your daughter-in-law doesn't want you! ”

"What? Ah Hei still has a daughter-in-law? Prince Le asked in surprise.

"Ah Hei is an adult, of course he wants to find a daughter-in-law, he found it last year, his daughter-in-law is afraid of people, Ah Hei didn't take her home, it is estimated that in a few months, Ah Hei can be a father." Huangfu Yongning stroked the hair on the top of Ah Hei's head and said with a smile.

Ahei, who was almost psychic, thought that he understood what his master meant, and he bowed his head shyly, which made everyone present ridiculous. They had never seen a more attractive tiger than Ahei.

Qi Jinghuan also knew that Ah Hei had a daughter-in-law, and his mind was racing, thinking about how to trick Ah Hei into looking at his daughter-in-law and children, so that Huangfu Yongning could belong to him alone.

Everyone walked around the garden while laughing, the atmosphere was extremely harmonious, and even Qi Jingshu, who had always been shy and introverted, was excited with a red face and a bright look, it was definitely not the girl who always bowed her head and was silent.

"Back to the concubine Niangniang, the prince, the eldest aunt and the second aunt are back to say goodbye." A little maid's report interrupted the harmony, the smile on Prince Le's face gradually closed, and Qi Jinghuan also frowned.

"What are they doing here? Huan'er, you can deal with it. Prince Le frowned and said unhappily, since the last time the eldest aunt and grandmother Qi Jingshan said something that should not be said, Qi Jinghuan annoyed her, and even took the second aunt and grandmother Qi Jinghu to eat melons. Prince Le and Princess Le have always stood with her son, and if her son doesn't like it, she doesn't like it either.

Where did the little maid dare to answer the words of Prince Le and the princess, she could only bow down and serve with her hands down, and she didn't even dare to come out, and she secretly complained in her heart. If it weren't for her aunt who was on an errand in the courtyard of Concubine Hefang and found her head, she would no longer have been able to run to report to her master.

Qi Jinghuan thought for a while, and said lightly: "Send the eldest aunt and the second aunt directly to the courtyard of Concubine He Fang and Concubine Chen Fang, pass two guest meals, and let them go back after the meal, you don't have to come to greet the concubine." ”

The little maid hurriedly claimed that it was, and Fei also went outside to spread the word, this is the order of the prince, no one dares not to listen, even if her aunt sues her grandmother, she has something to say.

Qi Jingshan and Qi Jinghu listened to the words passed on by the maid, and their faces couldn't be hung up, Qi Jinghu glared at her sister angrily, snorted angrily, and flicked her sleeves and walked towards the courtyard of Concubine Chen.

Qi Jingshan's face turned red, and even her breathing was much heavier, her hands were clasped tightly, and after a while, she said in a rough voice: "Let's go......"

"Young lady......" A grandmother who looked a little heady called out in a deep voice, and there was a faint warning in her voice. Qi Jingshan's face immediately sank, and she took a few deep breaths before she said coldly: "Don't go with Mrs. Ben to ask the side concubine Niangniang for peace." ”

The slightly headsome grandmother hurriedly responded and hugged Qi Jingshan to the house.

As soon as "Niang ......" saw Concubine Hefang, Qi Jingshan couldn't hold back anymore, and threw herself into her arms and cried. Concubine He Fang hugged her daughter and looked coldly at the subordinates who came with her daughter, her eyes were quite sharp. The hearts of all the subordinates trembled, and they all knelt down.

Concubine He gently patted her daughter's back, and it took a long time for those people to dry a pillar of incense before she said in a deep voice: "Let's all step down." After everyone retreated, Concubine He took her daughter's hand and asked in a low voice, "My son, but your mother-in-law has rubbed you?" ”

Qi Jingshan sobbed and cried and said: "Mother, since the third brother was dismissed, and the third brother and sister also lost their lives, my mother-in-law has never given me a good face, you know that my mother-in-law hurts the most is the third brother and his wife, and the family forced me to come to the palace every day to beg the third brother to help the old third official reinstate and get back the title for the third brother and sister." I...... Where do I have that ability, although my mother-in-law didn't dare to abuse me openly, but pointed out that I had no children, and raised two aunts to my husband, and now my husband treats me only with face...... If you hadn't sent someone to pick me up today, I'm afraid it would have been difficult for me to even get out of the house. Mother...... What can I do......"

"Hmph, there's such a thing! When you asked for marriage that day, how did your mother-in-law kneel in front of the concubine and say, now that you have only been married, she dares to do this, she really eats the bear's heart and leopard gall! You too! You are also a girl from the prince's mansion, you are a concubine, and you also have a county lord's seal, how can you still let them suppress it, where is your domineering in Su Ri? Concubine He poked her daughter's forehead with hatred, and when she saw her daughter described as withered, she couldn't help but feel distressed and took her into her arms and cried.

The mother and daughter cried for a while, and Concubine He ordered the maid to fetch water, personally re-dressing her daughter, and asking her to change into the spring shirt she made a few days ago. After cleaning up, Concubine He sighed in a low voice: "It's all to blame for me spoiling you too much, spoiling you into a character who doesn't know the height of the sky, and I don't know what to say and what not to say, if you didn't say those words on the concubine's birthday that day, why is this, the prince used to treat you very well, at that time, who in your mother-in-law's family dared to ask you to be strong, who didn't offer you high?" It's good now, the prince is annoyed with you, and the concubine is also annoyed with you, what can you do if you let your mother be a concubine? ”

Qi Jingshan didn't cry much anymore, but when she heard her mother's words, she felt sad in her heart, and she cried again, crying and whimpering: "Mother, what should I do?" ”

"Alas...... In fact, my mother called you back today, because the future princess came today, and my mother thought that the events of the day were caused by her, if you confessed your mistakes to her in person, you could not say that you could dissipate the anger of the prince, and the prince was angry, and the concubine would no longer embarrass you. But...... I didn't expect the prince to be really angry, and after so long, he didn't let you go to the concubine to say goodbye, even if you wanted to apologize, there was no chance. Concubine He lamented helplessly.

"Mother, the mother concubine doesn't look down on the emperor Yongning very much, why do you still ask her to come to the palace?" Qi Jingshan asked angrily. She regarded herself as the daughter of the prince, and she grew up in Beijing, and she didn't look down on the emperor Yongning who was free-range on the border.

"What kind of tone are you, the county lord is the future princess, the princess's heart, the mother tells you, you have offended the prince, and the prince's anger will pass for a while, but if you offend the county lord, the prince will not forgive you in this life. Even if the concubine doesn't like the county lord in her heart, she has to give her all the dignity, and whoever makes the prince die will recognize the county lord. Shan'er, if you listen to your mother, you must find a way to get the county lord to forgive you, otherwise no one will save you. Concubine He immediately admonished her daughter in a deep voice.

In the past half a year, Concubine He Fang has watched coldly, but she can see it clearly and clearly, otherwise she can't persuade her daughter so hard.

"This ...... I know. But...... Mother, if my mother doesn't see me, how can I ask for sin? Qi Jingshan suppressed the grievances in her heart and asked helplessly.

"This ...... The concubine doesn't see you today, then you go to Zezhi Garden and kowtow respectfully three times, and then go back to the house, the county lord can't stay in the palace all the time, and when she returns to the Dingbei Hou Mansion, you hurry up and prepare a heavy gift to apologize, and you can't go home without asking for the county lord's forgiveness. Concubine He Fang quickly came up with an idea for her daughter, and Qi Jingshan agreed one by one.

Just when Concubine He Fang was teaching her daughter, Concubine Chen was also talking to her daughter, and the atmosphere between their mother and daughter was much better than that of Concubine He Fang, after all, the second aunt and grandmother Qi Jinghu just ate melons, and she didn't do anything substantial, sorry for Huangfu Yongning.

Concubine Chen told Mrs. Tang and her daughter about coming to the palace yesterday as a joke, and Qi Jinghu, who was shocked, stood up and said nervously: "Mother, has the concubine ever annoyed you?" ”

Concubine Chen shook her head with a smile and said, "How could the concubine be annoyed with me, I haven't offended her." ”

"Mother, you are confused! That Tang Xian'er offended Brother Wang and the county lord, which is equivalent to offending the mother concubine, you see, yesterday they filed a complaint in the name of asking for guilt, and today Brother Wang will take the county lord to the palace, can't you see it? Mother, I told you that my cousin and Tang Xian'er are very tight, they are really a set of calculations, you must stay away from them. Why didn't you listen, and led them to the mother. Think about it, if someone comes up to you and says bad things about your daughter-in-law...... Forget it, you don't have a daughter-in-law either. Let's put it this way, if someone comes to say that your uncle is not good, will you be happy? Do you believe me and your uncle, or do you believe in those outsiders who can't hit the eight poles? Qi Jinghu was really anxious, she said a lot, and the face of Concubine Chen changed when she said it.

"This ...... This...... How is it good? Hu'er, my mother didn't think about it so much, your cousin and cousin are really pitiful. Concubine Chen said.

"Mother, you ...... What do you really want me to say about you! You have been in the palace all these years, and your heart and eyes are almost gone, thanks to your father's departure, the population of the palace is also simple, or you will have to be swallowed alive by life. In this way, you will take the time to see Brother Wang, and bring the Tang mother and daughter to the palace to find you, and learn everything you say and do to Brother Wang, alas...... My daughter doesn't ask for anything else, I just ask you to live peacefully in the palace. Qi Jinghu said helplessly.

The concubines and concubines in Prince Le's mansion are also very interesting, Concubine He is shrewd, but she raised a reckless daughter, Concubine Chen is relatively honest, and she has raised a very shrewd daughter, Concubine Li is cheerful and outgoing, but her daughter is introverted and shy. Fortunately, in general, they are not the kind of people who are scheming and play with intrigues.

At one time, the dining room sent two very sumptuous guest meals to Concubine Chen Bian, and the eldest aunt and grandmother Qi Jingshan saw such a sumptuous banquet, and the dishes she loved to eat were among them, and her mood immediately improved a lot, she felt that her mother's family still valued herself, and even her appetite was better.

The second aunt and grandmother Qi Jinghu and her sister were in the opposite mood, she was in a very heavy mood. Prince Le's mansion is her maiden home for her married daughter, but now that she has returned to her parents' house, her mother's mother and brother treat her like a foreigner, how can this not make her feel sad.

Eating and chewing the food in his mouth tastelessly, Qi Jinghu suddenly stood up and said hurriedly: "No, it can't be like this, I have to go to Brother Wang to talk about it......

There is a shift before 12 p.m
