Chapter 406: Conceited and Smart
Fan Yang Lu's banquet ended in a lively and lively manner.
After the banquet, Jiang Mi did not return to the house immediately, for the upcoming battle of Hou Zhou and Hou Shu, the family members were in high spirits, and Jiang Mi, who was regarded as their mascot, was naturally not idle.
Just when Jiang Mi followed Cui Zixuan day and night, discussing with the children the terrain of the mountains and rivers of Houshu and the way to attack, what she didn't know was that because of this banquet of the Fan Yang Lu family, Jiang Mi was also famous in the circle of the daughters of the family.
If the older generation is still obsessed with Jiang Mi's inglorious background, then among the younger generation who grew up in the war, there is no longer the prejudice of their own parents that only we are the most noble in the world, and the rest are lowly and not worth mentioning.
And Jiang Mi is beautiful, powerful, and most importantly, she is also mysterious, such a woman, her past can be told for two days just by telling stories, plus her powerful and amazing brothers all praise her, how can the women of the family not be curious?
At this time, Cui Ziying was busy going to the banquet.
As the concubine of the Boling Cui family and Cui Zixuan's own sister, Cui Ziying is very popular in the family, and her personality is also a likable type, so those women of the family like to invite her to participate in banquets of all sizes.
On this day, Cui Ziying had just come to the Zuihu Pavilion of the Li family's annex in Shaanxi when she heard a faint sobbing sound coming from inside.
Cui Ziying stopped bouncing around, turned around and asked carefully, "What happened?"
Following Cui Ziying is the dynasty's sister-in-law Wang Yingxue, Wang Yingxue has always been a steady and virtuous character, and she is quite influential in the ladies, and she knows many things that Cui Ziying doesn't know.
Wang Yingxue frowned, she gently pulled Cui Ziying's sleeve and left, and walked to a quiet place, Wang Yingxue sighed lightly and said, "What else can happen?" It must have made those nouveau riche angry. ”
As soon as Wang Yingxue said the word "nouveau riche", Cui Ziying understood. Because of the female dependents in Daliang City for a while, the most ferocious thing is the dispute between the family members of the generals who started from Chai Rong in poverty and the daughters of the family.
It is said that with the character of the women of the family, this dispute should not be able to get up. But today's Daliang City, the nobles with five surnames and seven wangs are all gathered here, and the nobles always have to marry when they grow up.
The families have now become a group, and it is inevitable to marry each other, but some daughters have many families, and they inevitably want to try to attract as many generals as possible in the new dynasty, so they have the initial idea of marrying with the poor.
Originally, this is understandable, the problem is that although there are many generals from poor families, there are only a dozen or so of them with outstanding appearance and conduct, and those dozen or so have long been targeted by the daughters of generals from the same poor families.
This wolf has less meat and more meat, and the problem comes. Originally, the family was reserved, and the generals from the poor family were the best, and if they were engaged, they naturally disdained to fight, but those who were not engaged, they didn't need to back down. But if you don't back down, then the problem comes out, some of them have long had the intention of discussing marriage, or were unilaterally favored by the woman, in the choice of the cold general and the daughter of the family, it was one by one who did not hesitate to favor the daughter of the family. After all, the two families are not on the same level in terms of appearance and temperament, words and deeds, or dowry assistance.
For example, the daughter of a general surnamed Yishi had just proposed a marriage with a general of the Han Gate, and was about to settle down, but the general saw the daughter of the family in a blink of an eye, and he was in a trance, so he couldn't wait to refuse the marriage and ran to the daughter of the family to offer his courtesy.
There are many such things, and gradually, the daughter of the cold door and the daughter of the family gradually formed an incompatible trend, and the crying noble girl inside was humiliated by the vulgar and disgusting words of the cold door girl.
Wang Yingxue said a little, then frowned and said: "Actually, we are not afraid of them, but the overall situation of the world is decided, and the fathers and brothers can't worry about the affairs of the world, we really don't want to trouble them at this juncture." ”
It is indeed such a reason, Cui Ziying nodded, the two girls sighed a few words to each other, Cui Ziying remembered something, and asked: "Then tomorrow the princess will have a banquet, will Sister Ying Xue still go?"
Wang Yingxue smiled bitterly: "Although I knew that I would be angry if I went, I had to go." "The banquet held by the crown princess is the home of the cold women, and they will definitely not be able to do well if they go, so Wang Yingxue has this feeling.
Cui Ziying said: "Anyway, my brother has already fallen out with Chai Zongxun, so I won't go." ”
Wang Yingxue said: "You can do this. ”
The two girls talked and laughed, and the day's banquet was over.
The next day, Cui Ziying really didn't go to the princess's banquet.
When she knew that something had happened at the banquet, it was already afternoon, and Cui Ziying got the news, so she immediately joined Mrs. Cui Wu and hurried to the prince's mansion.
As soon as she came to the gate of the prince's mansion, Cui Ziying heard the commotion in front of her, she turned over and got out of the car, hurried to go, and as soon as she entered the gate, she saw the prince Chai Zongxun casually taking the robe handed by the maidservant and putting it on, while saying to the three concubines who were also wearing the prince's robe and her hair was drenched: "Okay, you go back and prepare first, and in a few days Lone will send someone to marry." ”
What?
Cui Ziying was taken aback, she turned her head sharply, but saw Ying Xue, the queen of the Taiyuan Wang family, Li Huizhu, the daughter of the Li family in Shaanxi, and Zheng Yajing, the only concubine in the Zheng family's mansion in Xingyang, who was the only concubine to raise her daughter, was embarrassed.
These three girls, any one of them is held by their own family like a pearl, they are all raised by thousands of people, and they are also very good, it can be said that any one of them is a beautiful and moving, noble and extraordinary noblewoman!
But they were in a state of embarrassment, drenched all over, with aquatic weeds in their hair, and men's robes with the prince's emblem on them, apparently just fished out of the water. And the person who picked them up didn't have to look at the prince.
Cui Ziying couldn't understand for a while why it was the turn of the prince to save the three with a lot of maidservants, but as soon as she looked at them, she saw the powerlessness and resentment in the eyes of the three girls after being seriously humiliated!
Chai Zongxun obviously also sensed their resentment, he raised his chin, and shouted gloomily: "Why, once I am the crown prince, I can't accommodate a few of you family girls?" Speaking of this, he flicked his sleeves and said gloomily: "If you are smart, go back and prepare for marriage." If you bring more dowry, Lone may still spoil you for three days and five days, otherwise......" His words were not finished, but the malice made people's teeth tremble!
Cui Ziying was so angry that her whole body trembled.
For fear that she would make a sound, Mrs. Cui Wu hurriedly held Cui Ziying tightly. Fortunately, at this time, Chai Rongxun was blown by the cold wind, and shivered wetly, and he hurriedly waved his hand and led his subordinates to go forward.
As soon as Chai Zongxun left, Cui Ziying hurriedly said, "Three sisters, get into my carriage." ”
The third daughter was the time when the six gods had no owner, so she followed Cui Ziying into her carriage.
As soon as she got into the carriage, Cui Ziying hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
Mrs. Cui Wu was busy cooking wine to warm up the three girls, and among the three girls, Wang Yingxue, who was the most steady, tried hard to calm herself down, and said in a trembling voice: "It was our negligence that fell for the tricks of those poor women." ”
But it turned out that soon after they entered the banquet, their dresses were wet in the conflict with the Hanmen generals, and when they changed clothes in the wing room, the wing room was broken into by a strange man, they fled in a hurry, and in the chase, they were pushed into the pond, just at this time Chai Zongxun came, Chai Zongxun asked people to drive away their maid guards, and jumped into the pond to pick up the three of them, and then Cui Ziying saw it.
Wang Yingxue was trembling with anger, and she said in a trembling voice: "Whether it is a conspiracy or a conspiracy, we are not too afraid, but we didn't expect that those people were pure subordinates." That Chai Zongxun actually had people detain our guards so that they could not come and save us, and then he let his own people stay around, and then he jumped into the pond to save us. As soon as we rescued him, his subordinates shouted and screamed to attract everyone to watch. Then, Chai Zongxun said that he would be responsible for us......"
As soon as Wang Yingxue finished speaking, Zheng Yajing said with a pale face and despair: "I won't marry such a villain, if I want to marry Chai Zongxun as a concubine, I'd rather die!"
Li Huizhu said: "Things haven't come to that point yet, let's go and ask my brother and father to call the shots." ”
Wang Yingxue thought more, she shook her head, shook her head again, in the eyes of several women, she trembled, and said weakly: "It's useless...... Useless...... The family has just moved to Daliang, and in front of His Majesty, the three of us have not yet made an inch, and it is obviously not a wise move to fight with the prince at this time!" she said desperately: "I can think of this, and my father and brothers can also think of this, so it's useless......" She really couldn't imagine that she was conceited and smart, but because of a light enemy, she would ruin this life so easily!
Speaking of this, Wang Yingxue closed her eyes in despair.
Seeing her crying, the other two daughters also panicked, and gradually, they figured out the meaning of Wang Yingxue's words, and they also showed despair.
Seeing that they were trembling with fear, Mrs. Cui Wu on one side forcibly stuffed the boiled wine into their hands. Seeing that one by one they would rather freeze to death than take hot wine to warm up, Mrs. Cui Wu sighed lightly, and she said in a low voice: "Actually, there is another person who can save you." ”
The four girls turned their heads to look at Mrs. Cui Wu at the same time.
Facing the three pairs of begging tears, Mrs. Cui Wu whispered again: "This matter, you go and beg the Jiang family, if anyone can solve this matter, then only the Jiang family." ”
Wang Yingxue hurriedly pulled the sleeve of Mrs. Cui Wu, and said in a trembling voice: "Madame's words are serious?"
Fifth Lady Cui nodded and said affirmatively, "She does have this ability!"
The eyes of the three girls showed a hopeful light at the same time. Whoosh, they looked at Cui Ziying at the same time.
Cui Ziying bit her lip, and after a while, she said softly: "Okay, I'll take you to see your sister-in-law." As soon as the words fell, the three girls leaned back weakly, and at this time, they finally took the warm wine stuffed by Mrs. Cui Wu.
