Naturally, market research can't be done, she is now the fourth princess, not the financial staff of a certain company.

What the four imperial concubines should do is to attend the banquets of various provinces, show a gentle and decent smile to the women they know, and show a more gentle and decent smile to the women they don't know and get to know her.

Xie Yiying stood under the weeping flower hall of the Second Prince's Mansion for a while, and felt that her face had stiffened into a mask, and her brain was in chaos, as if she had been taken off and put on a high-speed centrifuge for a while.

It shouldn't be, she quietly put her hand behind her back and beat her lumbar spine, why hasn't she grown a little after practicing for so long.

After thinking about it, I saw the second imperial concubine walking over, and her right hand was covered on her lower abdomen carelessly. I can't see that I have a body in terms of figure, but my demeanor is different from before.

"You also know that I don't dare to go fast now, thinking about coming out to meet you, but it turns out to be slow." The second imperial concubine shook her hand and patted the back of her hand gently, with a light smile on her face, as usual, but she didn't look contemptuous when she was intimate, but her face was ...... For pregnant women, it is not enough to be rosy and plump.

Xie Yiying has a good impression of her second sister-in-law, the first time they officially met was at the queen's place, she never embarrassed her verbally, although she didn't say much, every sentence was very measured, and it didn't make people feel uncomfortable. What's more, there is a third sister-in-law standing there for comparison, even the crown princess can look kind and easy-going.

"The second sister-in-law is now a double-body person, and now you can count you and the most precious in your belly, just have a good rest, and they are all relatives, why do you have to come out to greet it." Xie Yiying smiled and chatted with her for a few words, knowing that the second imperial concubine still had to talk to others, so she bowed to her and went in first.

After walking a few steps, I saw the princess of Xiaojun, probably just finished laughing with someone, her face was flushed, and when she saw her coming, he beckoned to her: "Why is it so slow, I'm still waiting for you here." ”

Xie Yiying pondered in her heart, it was really the princess of Xiaojun who looked better than her second sister-in-law, but she was not a person in poor health when she saw her on weekdays.

While thinking, he approached the person and pinched her face affectionately: "Who needs you to wait," and then didn't make much trouble with her, only asked her in a low voice, "I see something very strange, ask you, it is the second imperial concubine who invited us today, why is it the second prince's concubine Qi who greets guests inside and out?" ”

When she got off the sedan chair at the door, she was not familiar with the people waiting there, although she was also a bejeweled beauty, and the attitude of the people towards her also showed that her status in the second prince's mansion was very noble, but she was still stunned for a moment, she thought that she was the second princess when she came out, and she had already thought about what to say to her on the sedan chair, and the sudden change made her stuck in the shell. Thanks to Qingmei quietly reminding her next to her, she remembered that this was the second prince's concubine Qi.

This Concubine Qi is very hospitable, and Xie Yiying can also chat with such a person, and as soon as she treats people more, she shows her long-sleeved and good dancing expertise, although there is nothing wrong with the hospitality, but Xie Yiying faintly feels that something is not right, and when she is separated from others, she asks Qingmei in a low voice, and then she reacts to what is going on.

This concubine of Qi is xiàn, as if she is the master of the eight classics in this mansion, and there is nothing to do with the second imperial concubine.

No, who gave her such a big face. The dignity and dignity of the second imperial concubine are already better than her, plus the child in the womb, what's the matter, will the social status of women in feudal society decline after pregnancy?

When Princess Xiaojun heard what she said about this, she couldn't help but smile on her face, pulled her away from the crowd, glanced outward, and replied to her in a low voice: "Face-to-face, it's naturally because your sister-in-law has just had a body, and it's inconvenient to entertain, but even you can see that something is wrong, right?" ”

…… Even I can see what it means.

"Do you think your child is a good child? If nothing else, let's just say that during this time, how many people can find a reason to snatch the power of the family that was originally held in her hands. ”

Xie Yiying heard that there was still a layer of meaning in her words: "Something else? ”

Princess Xiaojun glanced at her: "This is only for you, who let you still be a fool." Your family...... It's difficult to get pregnant, count it yourself, now there are four princes, and the crown prince is twenty and seven, and there are only a few in total...... The emperor's grandson? ”

Xie Yiying did the math by herself, and she could really count it with one hand. And what is very strange is that there is only one Zhou Li in the Prince's Mansion, and Zhou Li is six years old this year, that is to say, in six years, nothing has come out of the Prince's Mansion, and this point in time is ...... That is, since the princess married in, there have been no concubines in the house. Crown Princess: This is ...... If you don't have children, you won't let anyone else have them.

Princess Xiaojun looked at her and knew that she had understood the secret. He only sighed, but he didn't know how to persuade her. The royal family is like this, ** there are many things, she can't be ignorant.

And what is Xie Yiying thinking now?

She just wanted to escape.

It is difficult to change people's fixed thinking patterns, and she is accustomed to reasoning forward about the development process and cause of things after knowing the result, just like seeing a corpse to infer the motive of the crime, so now, almost without her own control, she guesses what the princess has done, and the more she thinks about it, the more frightened she feels.

It was as if he was led by a snake to a cave where a group of snakes were entrenched.

She had seen so many stories and knew the horrors of human nature, but she still felt unbelievable when these things happened to her, especially in a beautiful, golden mansion.

It was breathless, and she pursed her lips, not daring to think about it again.

"What are you talking about?" Soft female voice.

Xie Yiying turned her head to look at it, under the plum tree next to her, among the colorful clouds, Xu Danwei was dressed in purple. I don't know what material is used in the dress, and from a distance, it seems that there is a ripple of water, and the person who only reflects seems to be standing in the clouds.

"It's a joke, why are you standing here alone, and you don't have a girl to follow." Princess Xiaojun gently pressed her palm under her sleeve, signaling her not to say these words, and thanked Ying for shaking it back, indicating that she understood.

"I want to say something to the Fourth Imperial Princess."

"Huh?" Princess Xiaojun was a little surprised, and glanced back at Xie Yiying, who had been looking forward to the conversation between them, so she nodded to someone.

The princess of Xiaojun smiled and said: "Okay, you two have whispers to tell me behind my back now, but I still have something to find the county lord of Anping, otherwise I won't depend on you." He didn't worry about telling Xie Ying, "You can say it quickly, don't come back after the banquet starts." ”

"Oh, you talk a lot, hurry up and go." Xie Yiying seemed to be impatient, but affectionately put his hands on her shoulders and gently pushed the person to that side.

Seeing that people were far away, she thought about it, and ordered Qingmei to go to the other side to help them guard, and told her to come and go back if someone approached.

Xu Danwei quietly watched her do these things, and when Qingmei also retreated, Fang said, "Princess Xiaojun likes you very much." ”

"I can't think of any reason she doesn't like me?" Xie Yiying felt that what she said was unreasonable.

Xu Danwei didn't explain to her. Although Princess Xiaojun is a delicate character, it doesn't mean that she likes everyone she takes good care of. She was a young lady of the family when she was not out of the cabinet, and later married the son, and she has always had an honorable status, and her noble status is not rare; There is no shortage of intelligent people among the characters of this class, because most of them have received a good education since childhood, not only in poetry and etiquette, but also in the way they behave in the world, and it is too easy to judge what he means only from the look of his eyebrows; can't treat her differently with her wisdom, nor can she be respected by virtue of her wealth, what is it about Xie Yiying that attracts her?

Suddenly, a gust of wind rose, and plums fell like snow under the trees, and there were white plum hairpins on the side of the bun, Xie Yiying turned her head to look at her for a moment, and suddenly laughed softly: "Since you returned to the imperial capital, you have embarrassed me several times, because you like Zhou Jin, yes or no?" ”
