Chapter 55: Knocking

Xi Yunzhi held the invitation card in his hand, and after looking at it from beginning to end, he saw a signature seal at the signature office, a lonely mountain person.

Listening to Zhen's words, it is popular in the noble girl circle in the capital to give herself a nickname, and other people, Xi Yunzhi may not know, but this lonely Fangshan person, even she, who has just come to the capital, knows it.

The crown princess Meng Han is the first talented woman in the capital, her three years old literacy, five years old poetry, thirteen years old with a naΓ―ve Fu swept the capital noble girl circle, become a well-known talented woman, she once said that she does not want to be trapped in the harem of the court, more like the leisurely mountain life, and for himself to take the nickname, called the lonely mountain people.

The Peony Conference is full of celebrities, or the crown princess, that is, the future queen mother personally held, as long as you want to mix in the circle of nobles in the capital or the wives of high-ranking officials, will not give up this rare opportunity, if you can go to the crown princess to mix familiar, I can't say that I can find some good way out for myself and my husband's family in the future.

Xi Yunzhi didn't know how such a precious invitation could be delivered to her.

Closed the invitation and handed it back to Liu's mother, who didn't understand the meaning, but felt that the invitation in her hand could make her hand more valuable in an instant.

In the evening, Bu Qin sent someone back to spread the word that he would not come back for dinner. Xi Yunzhi didn't wait for him, ate something early, and went back to the room.

She sat in the candlelight threading the needle, and the pattern she had drawn a few days earlier was finished and she was ready to embroider, but the door of the room was pushed open.

Bu Tan's face was a little red, as if he had drunk some wine, Xi Yunzhi put down the needle and thread, and stepped forward to take the belt he had untied, and really smelled a heavy smell of wine, and asked with a smile on the corner of his mouth:

"My husband never drinks outside, but it's strange today."

Bu Tan seemed to have a headache, sat down at the round table and pointed to the teapot, Xi Yunzhi willingly poured him a cup of fragrant tea, and after Bu Qin took a sip, he replied to Xi Yunzhi:

"Well, with people...... Something was discussed. ”

Xi Yunzhi saw that his eyes were a little confused, and couldn't help asking, "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?" ”

Bu Qin put the cup aside, and he lay on the table, as if he was very distressed, and after hesitating for a while, he said again:

"It's not a good thing." After a while, he added, "But it's not necessarily a bad thing." ”

Xi Yunzhi knew that he was distressed at this time, as if he was doing something difficult to choose, she didn't know the whole story, and she couldn't say anything at will, so she could only try her best to be a wife, she walked behind him and pinched his shoulder for him.

Bu Qin was tense at first, and then felt quite comfortable, so he relaxed and leaned on the back of the chair, let Xi Yunzhi press for him, the quiet environment was full of warm aroma, he suddenly felt that his head was not as painful as just now, and his mood seemed to have recovered a lot, grabbed Xi Yunzhi's hand and pulled it to his chest, and quietly stroked it for a while before he spoke:

"I only learned today that His Royal Highness King Ji has real talent and learning. He intends to win the throne, you say...... Shall I help him? ”

Xi Yunzhi stopped her movements and looked at the back of Bu Tan's head silently, such a big matter, her husband told her so easily that this woman knew, her lips moved slightly, but she heard Bu Qin say:

"There are virtuous people in the world, and the corpse vegetarian meal is always chilling."

Xi Yunzhi listened to her husband's tone, and knew that he was only a momentary effort, and he had already made a decision in his heart, King Ji was afraid that he really had the talent to help the world, which made her husband so fascinated.

"You said I made this decision, right?" Bu Qin pulled Xi Yunzhi out from behind him and made her sit on her legs, and her fingers drew circles on her belly for a while:

"Today's saint, has lost the trust of the Bu family, he summoned me back to Beijing is a last resort, although he led the civil and military officials to meet in front of the Xuanwu Gate, but it may not be sincere, even if I will make great contributions in the future, in the end, I may not be able to protect the wealth and peace of the Bu family, I can not care in the past, but now I can't."

Bu Tan's eyes fell on Xi Yunzhi's belly, I don't know if it was because of the wine, his eyes were a little moist, and the hand touching the belly became softer.

After Xi Yunzhi took a deep breath, he put his hands around Bu Tan's shoulders and said solemnly to him:

"What the husband wants to do, just do it, the worst result, the big deal is not to have these fame and wealth, we also go to find a small mountain village to live in, you plow the field, I weave, children and grandchildren are full, isn't it still a happy life?"

Bu Qin looked at Xi Yunzhi's side face, and couldn't help laughing: "What Madame said is reasonable, but I can't put aside these short-sighted insights, so Madame laughs." ”

Xi Yunzhi smiled and stroked his handsome face close at hand: "Husband, I know that you want to give our mother and son a bright future, I know that you want to give your children a happy life, you can do what you want, it's done, we will follow you to enjoy happiness, if you can't do it, we will go away as a family and enjoy happiness in another place." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After listening to her, Bu Qin only felt how fortunate he was in this life, to be able to marry a woman who understood him so well, such a beautiful woman was sitting on his lap at the moment, pregnant with his child in her belly, everything was beautiful and suffocated him.

The β–‘ that had been enduring for several months suddenly broke out, and he immediately intercepted Xi Yunzhi's slightly open cherry lips, sucked and bit lightly, pressed the back of her head tightly, and did not make her flinch, the two of them intertwined their lips and tongues, and their affection flowed secretly.

***

Xi Yunzhi finally decided that she would not participate in the peony conference ten days later.

Last night, my husband was a little drunk, but I talked to her all night, talked about love all night, and she also knew what her husband was thinking now, so she couldn't do things so casually.

The Peony Conference was organized by the crown princess and others, not to mention that inviting her to participate in such a gathering was suspicious in itself, even if it was not suspicious, she felt that she should not use any of her own actions to influence his decision before her husband officially expressed his position.

Therefore, when two days later, when the maid in the prince's mansion came to determine whether she was attending, Xi Yunzhi refused the invitation on the grounds that her belly was as big as a basin and she was unable to move, and asked Mother Liu to take two baskets of grass eggs from the kitchen and give them to the maid, and asked the maid to bring the two baskets of eggs to the princess.

After the maidservant left, Mother Liu finally couldn't help but say to Xi Yunzhi:

"Ouch, my lady, you are also an official wife, so many good things are not sent, but such local eggs, what do you want the princess to think of our step? Do you really think we're coming into the city from the countryside? ”

Xi Yunzhi saw that Mother Liu was sweating profusely in a hurry, so she almost pointed at her nose and scolded, saying that she couldn't do things. smiled at Liu's mother, comforted him, and went back to the room to embroider with his stomach.

She did this in order to make the crown princess think that she was a rude, reckless and ignorant country bun, so that she could successfully turn herself into the background and create a diplomatic character for herself, so that it would be convenient to do things and speak in the future.

Sure enough, after receiving her reply and eggs, the crown princess did not have much backlash, but in her heart, she labeled this ignorant village woman as ignorant, and listed her as an object that she would not invite in the future.

The nepotism policy is popular in the noble women's circle to win glory for their family, but even if it is a nepotism policy, at least the other party needs to be a nepotism, not any casual footwrap that can be used to make a nepotism policy.

Obviously, Xi Yunzhi, a woman from a small place, is doing the business of an ignorant village woman in a small place, so what else can she care about with such a person? Doesn't it seem like you're getting a bargain?

As soon as the crown princess felt like this, Xi Yunzhi's life would be better.

She eats and sleeps as usual every day, makes money as usual, and her life flies. Seeing that half a month had passed, she was bored reading in the house, and was surprised to find that Princess Zhen hadn't come to talk to her for a long time, and she had no friends in the capital, so she was the only one who could talk.

Zhen didn't come to her, she really felt a little bored, so she asked Ruyi to send a letter she wrote to Jiwangfu to see if Zhen was not at home, if she was, she wanted to visit Jiwangfu this afternoon.

Who knows, after Ruyi came back, he brought her a word from Princess Ji, saying that she didn't want to see guests for the time being.

Xi Yunzhi was a little surprised, she didn't know why Princess Ji reacted like this, and after asking, Ruyi told her:

"I also secretly asked Princess Ji's maidservant Xiaorou, I heard that at the Peony Conference that day, Princess Jing intended to frame Princess Ji and let her make a fool of herself in public, and was slapped in the mouth thirty times by the princess on the grounds of disturbing the order of the venue, and now her face is so swollen that she can't see guests at all."

"What?"

Xi Yunzhi put down the needle and thread in his hand, and was very surprised by Ruyi's words, and after thinking about it, he asked again:

"Do you know what's going on?"

Ruyi said again: "I heard that Princess Jing sent someone to change Princess Ji's flower card, and after being discovered by Princess Ji, she also sneered at Princess Ji, which angered Princess Ji to make a big fuss at the venue, and then she was punished." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Xi Yunzhi thought silently for a while, Ruyi was still waiting for her to reply, and couldn't help but ask out loud:

"Madam, should we go buy some gold sore medicine and visit Princess Ji?"

After Xi Yunzhi sighed, he shook his head gently: "Princess Ji is now absolutely embarrassed, since she is closed to the guests, then it is inconvenient for us to visit, let's talk about it later." ”

"Yes, ma'am."

After Ruyi left, Xi Yunzhi put the needle and thread aside, and he lay on the recliner in a daze, Princess Ji had received it this time, maybe it had something to do with her, it must be Xi Yunzheng who saw the tea last time and informed Princess Jing, and they would take advantage of this to rectify Princess Ji at the Peony Conference.

But Xi Yunzhi thought about it carefully, and felt that it was wrong, the shopkeeper gave thirty strokes, even for the slave maid, this punishment is considered heavy, not to mention that the object is still a princess, whether this princess is favored or not, whether she is powerful or not, she is a princess on the bright side, which no one can change.

But the crown princess and princess Jing disregarded her face so much, there must be other reasons she didn't know.

Is it because of that?

King Ji showed a subtle desire to win the throne to the crown prince or King Jing, so this time Princess Ji was punished, it could not be said that the prince and King Jing were trying to give King Ji some beatings and told him not to be delusional.

Xi Yunzhi didn't expect that this kind of ordinary women's gathering would also involve the political situation, and couldn't help but sigh how correct it was for him not to attend the Peony Conference and not hesitate to establish an ignorant and reckless social image for himself.
