Xiusun was about to bury her head and pretend to be stunned, but Qiu Xuedai, who was walking with the third lady Chu Xiuman holding her arm, turned around and said in her unique soft and slow voice, "Sister Xiuguan is wrong, there are many things in this world that have nothing to do with hard work, such as identity. Successfully cited a counter-example, hit it with one blow, and punched Xiuguan's argument to the country of Java.

She deliberately elongated her tone, which was her habit of speaking. Sometimes it looks very dignified, very calm, especially pampered and not shocked, and sometimes it seems particularly annoying, just like now.

Xiusun frowned, if she wanted to say that Xiuguan deserved it, she gave someone a handle to step on for entertainment, but this Miss Qiu couldn't get off the stage for Xiuguan in front of so many Chu family sisters, and she didn't take their Chu family seriously.

Xiusun was about to pretend to be innocent and open her mouth to refute, but then Chu Pei spoke, "Sister's words are wrong, her background is bound to be destined, but there are also heroes who don't ask where they come from." Wasn't Grandpa Tai born in the people, but because of chivalrous courage and courtesy corporal, he got the world? ”

Of course, Grandpa Tai is a great chivalrous and courageous, and a great corporal Lixian, she gave an irrefutable example, and directly tied Qiu Xuedai's point of view to the sky monkey and sent it to the vast sky.

"My sister is right." Qiu Xuedai suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, in fact, she watched the Chu family sisters eat and dress every day, and the house she lived in was also exquisite and elegant, but she had to commit herself to the simple and narrow backyard of the county government, and she was inevitably uncomfortable.

Fortunately, she is the most talented student in this group of girls, and she has found a psychological balance in this way, and Xiuguan is obviously not very outstanding, but she always thinks that she is a good person, and she likes to lead her husband to praise herself in class, and all kinds of tricks and tricks are sold to love her watch, and she has launched various postures to impact her stable position. It made her feel very crisis.

Thinking of Xiuguan's identity again, she is obviously just a concubine, and she is better off than herself, which is very uneven, like a stab at her. Let her understand that there is a difference in identity, what is the use of you getting the praise of your husband, after all, you are still a concubine, and you deserve to fight with me.

But now the controversy involves the royal family, she doesn't dare to talk nonsense, if she says that this is not what she meant. If you refute it again, as long as you are asked rhetorically, is it what Lord Lingzun said? Her father's official is still inappropriate.

Because she was too nervous, her speaking speed increased, Qiu Xuedai was shallow and blessed, indicating that she had been taught, Xiuguan glanced at Chu Pei gratefully, and glared at her three sisters, meaning that you didn't help me, looking at me facelessly.

Xiufei saw the end of the confrontation. Hurry up to coax Qiu Xuedai, "Sister, don't blame, my aunt is straightforward, but her heart is excellent." ”

The three sisters of Xiuzhi and Xiuqian silently followed behind several sisters, some did not see Xiuguan's angry eyes, and some pretended not to see it, and in a blink of an eye, the sisters had arrived at the door of the courtyard of the small second room.

After the lunch break, another hour of embroidery was learned in the afternoon, and the sisters were out of school again.

The classmates went back to their respective homes. When it came to the second room for dinner, only their Chu sisters were left, and Xiusun found that the little magpie could actually inquire about some news of the capital from the maids and mothers-in-law in each courtyard.

gave her some candy and told her to often go to the little maid in the courtyard of the small second room to play. The specific action plan has been specially trained by Xiusun.

She herself rolled up a book of medical techniques and read it casually.

――

The Ruan family has many shops in the prosperous areas of Jinling, all of which are in charge of herself, mainly engaged in silk and satin, tea, medicinal materials, jewelry, antique utensils and other businesses. Arguably. It was the uncle of the Ruan family who basically gave the Ruan family's business in Nanzhili as a dowry.

There is also a shop specializing in candied fruits in these businesses, and every time the steward comes to report the bill, he will bring a lot of candy from the shop, so that the sisters in the family are not short of snacks.

Xiusun herself rarely eats snacks because she can't get fat anymore. So most of her share went into the little magpie's belly, looking at the little magpie's increasingly rounded figure, Xiusun felt very pleased, one fat man is very lonely, and the two fat men have a companion, very good, very good.

On this day, Xiusun suddenly remembered another use of this batch of snacks, so she put the preserved apples, osmanthus cakes, almond cakes, cloud cakes, as well as Sichuan's wosi candy and Huzhou's rose halva, packed a whole big purse and handed it to the little magpie, telling her how to make friends, how to chat, how to talk without a trace, and then tell her all the things she inquired about.

The little magpie is obedient and has a good memory, and it is too suitable to inquire about the news.

There are a lot of snacks in hand, and after a few days, the little magpie has achieved extraordinary results, but after all, the circle of the maid has limitations, and the news from the inquiry is very lagging behind, and the most recent ones are a few months ago. There are also people's names, official names, and government names, so don't expect to be able to inquire clearly, because I don't know if these news are the fifth, sixth, or eleventh.

The seventh wife of the small third room is the eldest daughter of the Fengyang Tang family, and the ancestor of their branch was originally Xinguo Gong, the first Xinguo Gong was not only the founding father, but also the hometown of Emperor Taizu, who was quite trusted, and there was a daughter in the family who became the imperial concubine.

Later, because the imperial concubine was involved in the matter of seizing the heir, when the new emperor ascended the throne and dealt with political enemies with rebellion, he also snare his family into it, took the title, and sent the family back to his hometown.

Now that the emperor has changed for two terms, and he has also given his family some grace, the Fengyang Tang family feels that there is hope for recovery, and they have stepped up contact with their old in-laws who are still in the capital, so there are many sources, of course, it has become gossip between the little maids.

For example, the girl of such and such a family married to such and such a family, and that family was convicted, and the girl was also unlucky, which is really miserable; Or, fortunately, the girl of a certain family got married, and the crime was not as good as the marriage girl, and she was able to escape the catastrophe; Or, if a subordinate of a certain family is sold, then a relative of the subordinate is a competent steward in another family, so he is rescued easily, and it is really good to have a competent relative.

Xiusun according to these words, pieced together some of the capital's nobles, since the death of the emperor's grandmother, the emperor has set off a period of purge, Liangguo Mansion, Qi Mansion, Yongcheng Houfu, Jingchuan Marquis Mansion and other nobles have been killed, Liangguo Mansion did not have time to enter the Dali Temple to convict, all over the house; The Marquis of Jingchuan Mansion is full of beheadings; The Mansion of the Duke of Qi, the Mansion of the Marquis of Yongcheng, etc., the men asked for beheading, and the women died; There are also several provinces that have families in exile.

Most of them were involved in the treason case of the Liangguo Mansion, and later added the crime of rebellion, but everyone died, and they couldn't find anyone who wanted to pull someone out of the Liangguo Mansion with a thousand knives. It makes no difference if there is one more or one less.

Most of these are those who have real power, such as the chief military officer, such as the defense of the capital, such as the palace guard. There is no real power like the Duke of Wei. The emperor has no time to deal with it, and it is better to have more than one thing.

After this battle, the military power was in the hands of the emperor.

As the wife of the second old lady, of course, she also knows more about civil officials, but the little maids can't understand the mystery. At most, I only know that a few cabinet elders have stepped down again.

Compared with the nobles who held the military power, the civil official group was much calmer, except for the first time when the court staff killed two people who liked to write excerpts, the rest were mostly assigned to the army, demoted officials to remote mountainous areas, or directly ordered to retire.

When the emperor's grandmother was there, Lord Yang, was retired, and his son, who had not entered Beijing for more than ten years after passing the examination, participated in the examination

is gearing up, planning to take his little cub who has just won the lifting to Beijing next spring to take the exam, what an inspirational father and son. Good, good, good.

The worst in the cabinet is the second assistant Ye Ge Lao. Seeing that the general trend had gone, he resolutely resigned, but was unremittingly traced to his son who had encroached on the people's fields in his hometown, and his son was arrested and sent to Yunnan. Ye Ge Lao fell ill when he returned to his hometown, and he is still not well.

The original first assistant and second assistant are gone, and the current first assistant is Chen Ge Lao, who is Ke Min's father-in-law, Chen Ge Lao is an old fritter, more oily than the second old lady of the Chu family, he is not the emperor's person. I don't know how long it will last.

In addition to Chen Ge Lao, there are also Wan Ge Lao and Peng Ge Lao in the current cabinet.

Wan Ge is always a master who takes patting horses as his life's work, likes to make friends with eunuchs, and has a good relationship with Dongchang, the celebrant supervisor, and the imperial horse eunuch like a brother. The reputation is not good.

Peng Ge Lao Dao is a good man, Xiusun knows that he has won the champion, and he once served as Zhan Shi of Zhan Shifu, among the only three remaining pavilion elders, this Peng Ge Lao should be the most trusted person of the emperor.

The little magpie also listened to the little maid in the long room, which used to be at the funeral of the eldest master. The true Ming Daoist who calculated that the coffin had to be sealed directly went to the capital.

It turned out that the emperor had been opening the furnace for alchemy in the palace for a while, and the world's famous Taoist priests were all called to Rujing to help the emperor refine the elixir of immortality, vowing to turn long live into reality.

Xiusun rolled her eyes, in fact, this is what the emperor wants to do the most, he has stolen a lot of pills in his bedroom a long time ago, this is what the fifth prince told her.

Originally, there was a royal grandmother who didn't dare to go too far, but now no one can control him.

And the strange thing is that the queen and the crown prince seem to have disappeared out of thin air, and there is no sense of zài in this change.

In fact, Xiusun asked the little magpie to inquire, and most wanted to know the news of their mother and son.

The Ke family was convicted, the prince didn't say a word, and the queen mother decided to marry her only granddaughter to the Ke family, but she also wanted to keep the Ke family in the hands of the prince.

Now, the Ke family is gone, and Donggong has almost become a bare-rod general, and he doesn't say a word, watching his people die one by one, will anyone die for the prince in the future?

In her impression, the prince is not such a person.

That night, Xiusun rewarded the little magpie with a large bag of snacks, which she kept for herself to enjoy, although she could inquire, but it was not good to inquire all the time, which only increased her suspicion.

The autumn moon reflects the curtains, and the light hangs into the danqi.

The night tonight is fine, there is a moon without stars, and the white last quarter moon hangs high, like a piece of pearled shellfish.

Under the moon, the pillars, plants, corridors, and courtyard walls are all covered with a layer of mellow pearlescent light, the night is very quiet, even the wind is very quiet, Xiusun is wearing a silk satin jacket and holding the quilt and leaning on the Hunan concubine couch, looking up at the window of a qiē.

She asked Ren's mother and the little magpie to go to sleep in the east room today, and she wanted to be alone and quiet.

There was no light in the room, it was pitch black, part of the moonlight outside shone on her face through the glass, and part of it was painted on the surface of the glass with a layer of floating light, she wanted to see more clearly, she walked slowly to the window, Xiusun put her face on the glass of the partition door, and could slightly see her familiar but still unfamiliar little face, her cheeks were cold and cold, and the slight sleepiness was instantly dispelled.

In her previous life, what did she look like?
