April 16 was Concubine Shu's birthday, and on the morning of the 15th, Gong Yan, the lord of Xiaoyi County, who had come to the news in advance, returned to the prince's mansion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

And Gong Zhe, who had been granted a leave by the sage, happened to be in the house, and the sister and brother had lunch together in the courtyard of Concubine Shu.

Also eating together were Princess Yao and Yao Xuan, who came to narrate, but before the meal was finished, Princess Yao was sent by Prince Jinshun to call away, leaving Yao Xuan to continue to eat with her ancestors and grandchildren.

After the meal, the three juniors sat down with Concubine Shu, and when they were about to say goodbye, Gong Yan opened her mouth and invited Gong Zhe to sit in her courtyard.

After Gong Yan got married, the Rongfu Hall where Princess Qian lived was completely closed, and if there was no accident, it would wait until Gong Zhe succeeded to the throne before making reconstruction arrangements.

The things that Gong Yan left in the palace were moved into a new courtyard, which was also the place where she rested and stayed when she occasionally returned to the palace.

Speaking of which, Gong Yan has been married for a few years, and has been very close to her husband's family, and the number of times she has returned to her parents' house is only a handful, and she didn't say a few words to Gong Zhe, her own brother, but this time she stopped Gong Zhe as soon as she came, obviously she had something to say.

"Something to talk about." Gong Zhe coldly spit out these four words and then said no more, he had long lost patience with Gong Yan, even in front of Concubine Shu, he did not respond to the other party's meaning.

"You ......" Gong Yan was dissatisfied and wanted to say a word about Gong Zhe's attitude, but considering that Concubine Shu was still seated, she still restrained her emotions and maintained the smile on her face, and said funny: "Of course it's a good thing."

I have to say that Gong Yan has been quite successful in being controlled in her in-law's house in the past few years, at least she can hold her expression when she encounters something, and she won't lose her face casually.

Gong Zhe was noncommittal about Gong Yan's so-called good things, and Concubine Shu had no intention of mixing for the juniors, and the scene was a little embarrassing for a while.

Just when Gong Yan was about to lose his smile, Yao Xuan's slightly curious sweet voice sounded, and he built a bridge for Gong Yan: "What's good about my cousin?"

To be honest, Yao Xuan herself didn't want to talk to the county lord who looked down on her, but now in this scene, she didn't want to ease it, but it didn't fit her personality.

Sure enough, Gong Yan ignored the steps handed by Yao Xuan, but at this time she hooked the corners of her mouth and stopped talking, and it seemed that Yao Xuan was the one who was hung up.

Gong Yan didn't know that her treatment of relatives of equal status would only highlight her own arrogance and rudeness.

It's hard to change your nature......

Concubine Shu sighed in her heart, and silently picked up the teacup and took a sip, but she was not worried that Miss Xuan would suffer.

Speaking of which, the flower tea in her cup is still made by Xuan Yatou herself, and she doesn't add any condiments when she drinks it, and it is light and very suitable for her taste.

Sure enough, before Gong Yan's shelf was set up, Gong Zhe directly flicked his sleeves and got up, and after saluting Concubine Shu, he walked out, completely ignoring Gong Yan's expression of wanting to stop him.

Then when passing by Yao Xuan's side, Xiao Shizi took the initiative to stop, looked down at Yao Xuan and asked, "Not leaving?"

"Huh? Let's go! Yao Xuan also got up after reacting, and also didn't look at Gong Yan, only saluted and said goodbye to Concubine Shu, and then left with Gong Zhe.

She was able to talk just now, but it was just because of the sensible impression she gave to Concubine Shu, and now Gong Yan'er was rude first, so she didn't need to be polite.

After the two of them left the Rongshou Palace, Yao Xuan's eyes rolled and asked Gong Zhe: "Do you know what the county lord said, what is a good thing?" ”

It's not Yao Xuan's nonsense, she thinks that the so-called good things that can come out of Gong Yan's mouth are eighty percent of Xiao Shizi's marriage, after all, the young man is already sixteen years old, and it should be the age to talk about marriage.

Gong Zhe nodded when he heard this, and without the slightest impatience to talk to Yao Xuan about the affairs of the Gong Yan family, as well as the Qian family's provocation in this, he didn't forget to take the opportunity to flirt with his sister and said: "What she thinks is her business, it has nothing to do with us." ”

On the other side, Gong Yan, who was embarrassed by Gong Zhe and Yao Xuan's successive ignorance, she didn't dare to say directly that Gong Zhe was not, so she looked at Concubine Shu accusatory. "She, they! A little noble county lord, who does she think she is? ”

"The wife of a low-grade official, who do you think you are?" Concubine Shu closed the teacup and slapped it on the table, looked at Gong Yan impatiently and asked, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

Gong Yan's heart trembled at Concubine Shu's cold eyes, and she didn't dare to be temperamental anymore, so she replied honestly: "It's not Brother Zhe'er's marriage yet, my husband's family happens to have a suitable cousin, and my grandmother thinks she knows it, it is Yang Yue, the most favored young daughter of the Yang family."

Gong Yan was a little uncomfortable when she said this, after all, the fundamental reason for her move was that her husband admired and praised her cousin too much, so Gong Yan was vigilant.

But because Gong Yan was hanging her eyes, she was not noticed by others, and she continued to praise and said: "Regardless of status or temperament, Sister Yue is worthy of Brother Zhe'er."

Concubine Shu frowned slightly when she heard this, and asked with some suspicion: "For no reason, how can you think of Brother Zhe'er's marriage?"

Concubine Shu knows very well the selfishness of this eldest granddaughter's nature, not to mention that she is now preoccupied with her husband and children, where would she think that her younger brother would not get married?

"I didn't want to care about it, but when my aunt and cousin came to see me, they said......" reflexively pushed the responsibility out, Gong Yan paused when he said this, and looked at Concubine Shu's expression without any change, before continuing: "Brother Zhe'er and Sister Yao's relationship is too close, and I don't know how to avoid suspicion when I am so old, and my granddaughter also wants to remind Brother Zhe'er."

"The Qian family......" Concubine Shu knew that this matter was inseparable from the Qian family's provocation, but she didn't want to be angry in vain when she was about to celebrate her birthday, and after knowing what Gong Yan was going to say, Concubine Shu simply sent her away with holy will and asked her not to meddle anymore.

"What about Brother Zhe'er and Sister Yao?" Gong Yan asked dissatisfied, and wanted to ask if Yao Fu wanted Yao Xuan to climb the palace, but thinking of Concubine Shu's favor to Princess Yao, she still didn't say it, so as not to remind Concubine Shu to kiss and kiss.

"Just tell your brother to go." Concubine Shu waved her hand impatiently, and directly asked the grandmothers to send people out.

Gong Yan was angry when she returned to the house this time, she returned to the small courtyard where she lives now angrily, it really didn't go well anywhere, but let her mention this matter to Gong Zhe again, she had lost the courage just now.

But Gong Yan won't really give up, the cousin of the Yang family is different from her father-in-law's low-born 'confidantes', which really makes her feel threatened, so even if she can't promote her and her younger brother, Gong Yan has to take action.
