Chapter 121: A Battlefield Without Gunpowder
Xue Ruran looked at Huo Yunxuan from the corner of her eyes, sneered in her heart, but her face was not obvious at all, she sneered, turned her head and seemed to gossip with Gu Shaoyuan: "Speaking of which, Miss Huo Si is the same age as Sister Yu, but because of her seniority, she earned the title of 'aunt' from our Sister Yu'er, but it made our Sister Yu suffer." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Gu Shaoyuan glanced at Xue Ruran noncommittally, with some warning in his eyes, signaling her to say less in front of the Queen Mother. However, Xue Ruran seemed to not understand Gu Shaoyuan's hints, and when she saw Gu Shaoyuan ignoring her, she smiled again: "Although our sister Yu is about the same age as Miss Huo Si, this head is not as fast as Miss Huo Si. ”
Saying that, Xue Ruran looked at the Queen Mother and said with a smile: "Miss Huo has a sharp mouth, unlike Sister Yu'er, who is stupid, can't speak, and won't make the Queen Mother happy." ”
In a word, it made several other people's faces change.
first said that Gu Mingyu was stupid and couldn't speak, and then said that Huo Yunxuan was shrewd and would only curry favor with the Queen Mother. Xue Ruran's words belittled the two of them plainly, if the Queen Mother was led astray by Xue Ruran's words, it would not be impossible to get tired of Huo Yunxuan and Gu Mingyu from now on. Xue Ruran's sentence can really be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Huo Yunxuan sneered in her heart, if she said that she was sharp-toothed, with Xue Ruran here, what would she Huo Yunxuan have?
He snorted coldly in his heart, but his face was not at all, but he glanced at Xue Ruran lightly, then made a shy appearance, and said with a smile: "How can Yun Xuan afford the praise of the princess, the princess is praised." ”
Didn't she say that she was praising her with her sharp teeth? Okay, then Huo Yunxuan will take it all when you are praising her, and you won't suffer anyway.
Xue Ruran's hostility towards Huo Yunxuan is so great, the Queen Mother naturally feels it, she originally felt that Xue Ruran said that Huo Yunxuan lost everyone's demeanor, and she was a little childish, but this time she saw that Huo Yunxuan not only resolved her embarrassment in a naughty way, but also rescued Xue Ruran - Xue Ruran's words to Huo Yunxuan sounded scathing and ungraceful, if Huo Yunxuan really talked to Xue Ruran, it would be reasonable to say that Huo Yunxuan was really motivated, after all, it was Xue Ruran who didn't save face for Huo Yunxuan first.
Fortunately, Huo Yunxuan showed a look that was not as knowledgeable as Xue Ruran, just as a naughty smile, just a smile. Originally, Xue Ruran wanted to transfer the relationship between Huo Yunxuan and the Queen Mother, and wanted to put another arrogant hat on Huo Yunxuan in front of so many people in Cining Palace - after all, even if Xue Ruran didn't save face for Huo Yunxuan and said her bitterly, according to the etiquette of the monarch and ministers, Xue Ruran is a super order, a princess of Huai, but she Huo Yunxuan is nothing, if Huo Yunxuan collides with her, she is not pampered and arrogant, what is it?
Xue Ruran didn't expect Huo Yunxuan's brain to run so fast, and she couldn't be fooled by herself...... From this point of view, the last time they failed to deal with Huo Yunxuan, it was not because Huo Yunxuan was lucky, but because they were too light on the enemy, and they just thought that a little hairy boy could have a lot of ability, but they didn't want to, in the end, they underestimated this little hairy boy.
Xue Ruran glanced at Huo Yunxuan lightly and didn't speak again. In the end, in a few days, the queen will invite the famous ladies in Beijing to the palace in the name of Gu Shaozhen to enjoy the flowers, why did the queen hold this meeting, others are not clear, Xue Ruran will not know? It's just revenge for the revenge that was not avenged last time.
It's just that Xue Ruran couldn't figure out why the queen was reluctant to hold this flower party. Since the accident in the Huai Palace, a few days ago, the queen did not mention the flower meeting, and Xue Ruran can understand it, after all, on the cusp, the queen is not too obvious. But before the accident in the Huai Wangfu, there were still many opportunities, why did the queen never mention it?
The queen is sophisticated, and she has not mentioned the flower meeting for a long time, thinking that she has her own plans. Regarding the fact that the queen wants to recognize Huo Yunxuan as a righteous daughter, Xue Ruran also heard it from her mother a few days ago, although she didn't understand the queen's intentions, she also knew that the queen would not do anything harmful to the Xue family, so although she was unwilling in her heart, she still had to work hard to promote this matter.
After Huo Yunxuan's voice fell, Xue Ruran took the opportunity to change the topic, and only smiled: "Sister Huo naturally deserves this praise." ”
After a pause, Xue Ruran looked at the Queen Mother again, and said with a smile: "When the concubine came just now, I happened to hear the Queen Mother say that the Queen Mother wants to recognize Sister Huo as a righteous daughter?" But really? ”
After all, the Queen Mother is older, and her memory is not very good, so she naturally forgot what she was talking to Huo Yunxuan and them when they came. This time, I heard Xue Ruran ask this, and I thought that Xue Ruran had been tied up in the Huaiwang Mansion these days, and she was naturally slow to hear the news in the palace, so she could know these things, thinking that it was because she listened to the conversation between herself and Huo Yunxuan when she came.
Therefore, the Queen Mother also trusted Xue Ruran, nodded with a smile, and said with a smile: "Your mother and father are also filial to the mourning family, and seeing that the mourning family likes Xuan Yatou very much, she thought of recognizing Xuan Yatou as a righteous daughter, and entering the palace to live with the mourning family as a companion." ”
Huo Yunxuan raised her eyebrows invisibly, slightly uncertain in her heart. Although the Queen Mother is old and her memory is a little poor, her memory is not bad, and Gu Shaoyuan is also here, Xue Ruran doesn't dare to lie if she thinks about it, and when they came just now, the Queen Mother did mention the matter of asking the queen to recognize her as a righteous daughter. So, did Xue Ruran know about this before or didn't he know?
Squinting her eyes, Huo Yunxuan raised her head, wanting to see Xue Ruran's expression at this time, but she didn't want to, and saw a maid behind Dongzhu and Xue Ruran frowning.
remembered that a few days ago, Zhishu also saw Dongzhu secretly meeting with the maid next to the queen, and now Dongzhu and the maid next to Xue Ruran are eyebrows...... Could it be that there is really a problem with this winter bamboo? and raised her eyebrows invisibly, Huo Yunxuan looked at Gu Shaoyuan, but saw Gu Shaoyuan lowering his head as if he was thoughtful.
Regarding the lack of tacit understanding when there should be, Huo Yunxuan said that she was very helpless. raised his eyebrows, he had to suppress the doubts in his heart, thinking that he would find someone to keep an eye on Dongzhu in the future, this Dongzhu is eighty percent problematic.
Xue Ruran was afraid of startling the snake, so Huo Yunxuan was afraid that she would be defensive against herself, so she never troubled Huo Yunxuan again, but only made a very familiar appearance with Huo Yunxuan, and chatted with Huo Yunxuan fakely.
Huo Yunxuan also heard the changes in Xue Ruran's words, and she had already changed from "Miss Huo" to "Sister Huo". Huo Yunxuan sneered in her heart, but her face was no different from Xue Ruran, and she kept smiling and chatting with Xue Ruran.
It's just that Gu Mingyu is a child in the end, and most of the girls who are the same age as him are curious, when Gu Mingyu looked at Huo Yunxuan for the fifth time, Huo Yunxuan couldn't pretend that she didn't feel it, so she had to tilt her head to look at Gu Mingyu and smile at Gu Mingyu, and a smile immediately bloomed on Gu Mingyu's face.
Gu Mingyu's biological mother Cheng is just a noble concubine of the Huai Wangfu, her identity is not noble, and her mother-in-law Xue Ruran is even more gentle on the surface, and because she can't give birth to children, she actually suppresses these concubines and concubines everywhere, but she really suppresses Gu Mingyu's Mu Mu stupidly, without the self-confidence of the eldest daughter of the royal family, but she has an inferiority complex. If Gu Mingyu was a concubine, and wanted to be interested in Huo Yunxuan at this time, she would have said hello and played with Huo Yunxuan with a big grin, where would it be like now, you have to wait for Huo Yunxuan to smile at herself before she can show a smile?
Huo Yunxuan sighed in her heart, and said in her heart that this Gu Mingyu is also a poor child, and she thinks that she is still coquettish in her parents' arms when she is ten years old, and she cherishes Gu Mingyu even more in her heart.
"The Jade County Lord is going to be ten years old this year, right?"
Although he is a child, but in the end he is a county lord, Huo Yunxuan's tone is naturally respectful, but at this time, Huo Yunxuan does not regard herself as a child, so when she speaks, her tone sounds more like a kind elder.
Gu Shaoyuan took a step with Gu Mingyu first, raised his eyebrows and looked at Huo Yunxuan, only to see that Huo Yunxuan's immature face had to pretend to be mature, and the appearance of a young man and an old man looked in Gu Shaoyuan's eyes, and he couldn't help but laugh.
looked at Huo Yunxuan intently, with a hint of imperceptible smile and doting in her tone, and said, "Seeing that the New Year is going to be eleven." ”
And Xue Ruran, who was also looking at Huo Yunxuan, naturally saw Gu Shaoyuan looking at Huo Yunxuan. Probably even Gu Shaoyuan himself didn't notice it, and at this time, he looked at Huo Yunxuan's eyes full of doting gazes.
Xue Ruran's heart sank, Gu Shaoyuan would actually answer in person, and thought that Gu Shaoyuan had just spoken out to mention Huo Yunxuan to relieve the siege...... Look at the way he looked at Huo Yunxuan again...... Xue Ruran's eyes became ruthless when she looked at Huo Yunxuan. These two people clearly only met today, and Gu Shaoyuan would have fallen in love with Huo Yunxuan's little hoof!
The hand holding the handkerchief tightened and tightened, and the handkerchief twisted and twisted between the fingers, indicating that the owner of the handkerchief was uneasy and angry at this time. Huo Yunxuan's attention was all on Sister Yu at this time, and Gu Shaoyuan's thoughts fell on Huo Yunxuan, but the two people who had always been cautious ignored a woman's sensitivity and a woman's jealousy......
Speaking of which, Xue Ruran is definitely a person who has achieved great things, even if he finds out that his husband has other thoughts about other women, he can still keep it in his heart silently, until he retaliates in the future, which can be regarded as a ruthless corner.....
Of course, that's all for later, so let's not talk about it for now.
only said that Gu Mingyu didn't know who Huo Yunxuan was, but I only heard that she was the one who wanted to be recognized as a righteous daughter by the imperial grandmother. can be recognized as a righteous daughter by the imperial grandmother, and she feels that Huo Yunxuan's identity is also noble. Seeing that Huo Yunxuan did not dislike herself because of her status as a concubine, but still talked and laughed at herself, she was full of good feelings towards Huo Yunxuan.
"Mingyu's birthday is older, and the New Year is Mingyu's birthday, I don't know if I can invite Aunt Huo to come to the house to celebrate Mingyu's birthday next year."
In the end, Huo Yunxuan is an elder, and it seems rude to call "girl", and it is too kind to call "aunt", so Gu Mingyu chose a compromise title and called "aunt".
Feeling Gu Mingyu's kindness, Huo Yunxuan naturally had to hurriedly express her kindness, nodded with a smile, and said, "Yunxuan is very honored to be invited by the county lord." ”
After saying that, he smiled at Gu Mingyu, and Gu Mingyu also smiled sweetly.
Cheng Yufei originally felt that her identity had made her daughter suffer a lot of cold eyes since she was born, but now although Huo Yunxuan does not have any title, she can be regarded as a daughter of a family, and she is favored by the queen mother, and there are rumors in the outside world that Huo Si girl is extremely arrogant and likes to be evil to others, but she doesn't want this son to be so good to her daughter, so she can't help but be more grateful to Huo Yunxuan, and she also smiles at Huo Yunxuan.
"Miss Huo is willing to appreciate her face and be a little girl, which is the honor of the concubine."
Huo Yunxuan has always been respectful to her, but now that Cheng Yufei is respectful to herself, Huo Yunxuan will naturally not be hostile to her, and she smiled at Cheng Yufei with a dignified smile and said, "Cheng Niangniang is very loving." ”
But I didn't want Huo Yunxuan's dignified smile to fall in Xue Ruran's eyes, but it was extremely hateful-how did you look at it, how did it feel like a scene where wives and concubines got along harmoniously!
Stirring the handkerchief fiercely, Xue Ruran endured it again and again, and then endured this evil breath, but sneered at Cheng Yufei's mother and daughter: "Sister Huo is willing to come to celebrate Sister Yu'er's birthday, I, the mother, should thank you the most." ”
The implication is that Cheng Yufei's mother and daughter have crossed over, she is the real hostess of Huaiwangfu, but these two people have crossed her to invite others, doesn't it show that their mother and daughter do not have her as a master mother in their eyes?
was said by Xue Ruran, and the Queen Mother couldn't help but be a little dissatisfied with Cheng Yufei's mother and daughter. Especially for Cheng Yufei. Although Xue Ruran didn't know that Cheng Yufei was pregnant, the Queen Mother knew that Xue Ruran said this, and the Queen Mother only thought that Cheng Yufei was a little pampered and fearless because she was pregnant again, so she didn't take Xue Ruran, the housemother, in her eyes. couldn't help but look at Cheng Yufei's eyes with some coldness, and even his tone was not very satisfactory.
"This is still a few months before Sister Yu'er's birthday, isn't it too early to make plans for this time."
Gu Mingyu was already timid, but when the Queen Mother's tone was a little harsh, Gu Mingyu trembled a little, glanced at the Queen Mother timidly, and blamed herself for inviting Huo Yunxuan to her birthday banquet just now in order to show goodwill, which made the Queen Mother angry.
In the end, it is a child, Huo Yunxuan saw Gu Mingyu like this, she felt a little unbearable in her heart, sighed slightly in her heart, first glanced at Gu Mingyu comfortingly, signaled Gu Mingyu not to be afraid, and then smiled
"The county lord is a child in the end, naturally he is thinking about his birthday every year, not only the county lord, but even Yun Xuan is counting his birthday every year."
As soon as Huo Yunxuan's voice fell, she really made the Queen Mother laugh, glared at Huo Yunxuan with a smile, and said with a smile: "I am a child, and I still say that someone else is a child!" ”
Although Gu Shaoyuan still loves Gu Mingyu's daughter, but in the end, he is a military general, and he only raises his daughter as a man, Gu Mingyu's timid temperament has always been Gu Shaoyuan's most unsatisfactory place, originally in such a situation, Gu Shaoyuan would not take care of it, but now seeing Huo Yunxuan's eyes looking at Gu Mingyu, her heart couldn't help but move, and she even spoke out to help her daughter out of the siege (to be continued). )
