Chapter Ninety-Five: The Summons
"What does my sister mean ......" Ye Youlian pinched the handkerchief, her eyes flashed several times: "But what if the imperial grandmother really asks?" ”
"Lian'er rest assured." Chen Jinjin patted her hand and instructed the maid on the left: "Go and see where the previous performance is, can the concubine go back?" ”
"I heard the news and specially begged my aunt to bring me over, you know, the queen mother doesn't like it, maybe she gave her aunt some kind of ......"
Chen Jinjin's voice became smaller and smaller, and when he saw the maid trotting back in the distance, he pinched Ye Youlian's fingers.
"Don't forget to say that whoever is at fault will pay the price."
The girl's voice was delicate, but it made people feel chills, and when Ye Youlian reacted, the person had already gone away.
"My sister is right, this time, it's not my fault."
Ye Youlian got up with a sneer and dusted off the bottom of her folded skirt, "We've been out for too long, let's go back." ”
The birthday banquet is coming to an end, and Chen Guifei and Chen Jinjin have already retired.
Mrs. Ye frowned and glanced at it, and the corner of Ye Youlian's skirt came out of the darkness.
The eye circles are slightly red, but the face is not bad, it seems that Chen Si's child persuaded him properly.
Mrs. Ye took her heart and continued to watch the singing and dancing.
The night is getting thicker, and the women and their relatives retreat one after another after paying homage to their birthdays, and the people in the Shou'an Hall are gradually decreasing.
Except for Fang Jiu, who stayed overnight tonight, even Fang Qi had already retired and returned home.
Mrs. Ye and her daughter were naturally the last to retire, and Fang Jiu felt a little cramped under Ye Youlian's unkind gaze.
"Imperial grandmother, you have to call the shots for Lian'er!"
"Lian'er!"
Mrs. Ye glared angrily at her daughter kneeling under Her Royal Highness and said, "Don't retreat yet!" ”
"Mother! Lian'er doesn't want to cover up for that woman anymore! Ye Youlian's eyes were hazy with tears, and she walked a few steps on her knees: "You can let Lian'er pay for her life!" ”
Listening to this, it doesn't feel like gibberish in shame.
Mrs. Ye's anger was a little less, and her mouth was still so hateful: "Lian'er! Retire! ”
"The mourning family is interested, Shanyang, let her come."
The Queen Mother sensed Fang Jiu's nervousness, turned her head and smiled: "If Xi'er is tired, go down and rest first." ”
"Xi'er is not tired, Xi'er is willing to accompany the emperor's aunt." Fang Jiu's voice was glutinous, and he sat obediently on one side.
Ye Youlian gritted her teeth secretly and knelt down to calm her mind.
Fang Jiu occupied the magpie's nest and occupied her place, and Fang Qi and Lu Zhaojin calculated against her.
The sisters of this Fang family, sooner or later, she will have to break them one by one.
"Imperial grandmother, the embroidered screen is indeed not embroidered by Lian'er." Ye Youlian gritted his teeth and said.
"Hmm." The Queen Mother bowed her head, and her complexion was not unusual.
"Lian'er didn't know who this embroidered screen came from before, but today I know the truth of things thanks to the blessing of my seventh cousin."
What happened?
The Queen Mother's eyelids raised a few points, and sure enough, there was a story.
At least it's a telltale story.
"So, she deliberately ruined your embroidery screen and compensated you for this one?"
"Lian'er didn't dare to deceive the emperor's grandmother, if she didn't know that this was a pair of screens today, I'm afraid that Lian'er and her mother still don't know!"
The aggrieved voice with tearful eyes is really impossible to refuse.
"Lian'er doesn't really want to ask the imperial grandmother to call the shots."
The girl sobbed: "It's all Lian'er's fault, I annoyed my sister-in-law first, she made me lose face like this, Lian'er admitted it, and I didn't want to defend it in front of others." Lian'er just wanted the imperial grandmother to know, Lian'er ...... Lian'er didn't mean to be lazy...... Lian'er wanted to wait for some time to present the hand-embroidered screen and tell you clearly......"
After hearing this, Mrs. Ye let out a long sigh: "It's really wronged." ”
Fang Jiu clenched her hands, her eyes widened, she didn't believe that Lu Zhaojin was such a person.
But she couldn't argue for Lu Zhaojin.
Because what Ye Youlian said was before she met Lu Zhaojin,
So that she couldn't say anything beneficial to Lu Zhaojin no matter what.
What to do, what to do......
Fang Jiu was so anxious that he heard the Queen Mother, who had been silent, suddenly speak: "Is that Lu Zhinian back then?" The daughter of the Lu family, the bride of the young Qing Dynasty. ”
Ye Youlian immediately spoke: "It's her, Imperial Grandmother!" ”
"Speaking of which, after more than a month of marriage, Youqing hasn't brought her to thank her, so why didn't she come this time?"
The Queen Mother did not ask about the embroidered screen, which made Fang Jiu, who was already worried, even more worried.
Royal affairs have always been something that can only be understood, not spoken.
The Queen Mother is obviously still in the matter of the mustard embroidery screen, but she doesn't know how to ask, but she is looking for Lu Zhaojin to make other troubles.
"My daughter-in-law has been sick for the past few days, and she is afraid of bumping into the queen mother's birthday, so she didn't come."
Mrs. Ye replied fluently, with a kind expression: "The embroidered screen is still careless, it is the children who have lost their temper, and there is always the face of the Hou Ye in it, and I ask my mother not to take it to heart." ”
"Erchen has retired, and Youqing is still waiting outside to return home together."
"My Shanyang is always so kind-hearted." The Queen Mother sighed, but waved her hand and said, "Quickly call my good grandson in." ”
"Go to the Hou Mansion again and invite my granddaughter-in-law to come over."
Fang Jiu's expression changed.
Rao is a fledgling, and she can see that it is definitely not a good thing for Lu Zhaojin to be summoned at this time.
When she came, she was reproached for pretending to be sick and not coming to worship her birthday.
If she doesn't come, she will refute the face of the Queen Mother, and after today, the capital is afraid that no one will dare to deal with her.
What does the Queen Mother mean, do you really want to rely on Lu Zhaojin for the embroidery screen?
"Did the Queen Mother really order Lu Zhaojin to be summoned?"
Chen Guifei was in a good shape, raised her wrist to the girl under her head with a smile, and said, "Jinjin is really better than blue out of blue." ”
"My aunt has won the prize." Chen Jinjin smiled meekly and drank it all: "This is just the beginning, it depends on his reaction." ”
"Oh?" Chen Guifei leaned on the chaise longue with a graceful posture, "It's okay, we are strategizing, even I, as an aunt, can look at it, how can he be virtuous, and he will still think that you can't do it." ”
Chen Jinjin was shy and timid on his face, but he clenched his fists underneath.
For some reason, she was always a little flustered.
Lu Zhaojin, who I saw that day, was calm and calm, not ashamed or annoyed, and invisibly put her together, which was not as easy to deal with as before.
It really scared her.
"Okay," Chen Guifei could see that Chen Jinjin was uneasy when she looked at her words, and comforted: "No matter what, the Queen Mother wants to detain this matter to that Lu Zhaojin, is it possible that she will lose her reputation because of Jiayang?" ”
Chen Jinjin shook his head.
Chen Guifei laughed contemptuously: "Even if the Queen Mother is willing, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not let go of the Ye family's fat." ”
"My aunt is thoughtful." Chen Jinjin finally put his mind at ease.
The two drank a cup of each other, and then listened to a palace maid enter the door to report the news.
"Niangniang, Fourth Miss, after Yehou Shizi entered the main hall...... He ......"
Chen Jinjin's heart rose for some reason.
"What did he say?"
"Yehou Shizi, he's making trouble!"
Got into a fuss?
The cup in Chen Jinjing's hand slipped down, and the sound of falling to the ground was extremely crisp.
"How dare he!" (To be continued.) )
