Chapter 278: Like it or not

Until she walked out of the Rose Garden, she didn't see the concubine of the virtuous king again.

Xiangzhi, Xiangcha, Jiang Yan, and Hong Caiyi were surrounded by six or seven palace guards in a small pavilion not far in front of the Rose Garden, and the stone table in the middle was full of snacks, tea and other foods.

Jinxiu came over and saw them make trouble once, the palace guards didn't look very powerful, there were whip marks on several faces and hands, and their clothes were torn by whips, which was obviously Hong Caiyi's masterpiece.

The two maidservants of the palace sent Jinxiu out of the garden, and stood at a distance, not daring to approach the pavilion, probably having heard of the fierceness of the four girls.

Finally seeing their young lady, incense branches and fragrant tea shouted happily, Jiang Yan and Hong Caiyi glared at those palace guards, and hurriedly escorted the two little girls towards Jinxiu, surrounded her tightly in the middle, and asked long and short questions.

Jinxiu smiled and told them that she was fine, but just talked to the concubine of King Xian, ate a few glasses of wine, walked around the garden for a while, and asked them if they were hurt? Several girls shook their heads in unison, Hong Caiyi and Jiang Yan said that the palace guards only prevented them from entering the garden, and did not exert all their strength to suppress them, because they themselves were not at ease, and they had to see the young lady, so they kept making trouble.

Xiangzhi complained: "We're not ignorant, if we don't let in, we won't enter, at least let us hear the young lady's command, just go in and disappear silently, and no one wants to change it!" ”

Jinxiu had no choice but to explain with a smile that the concubine of King Xian was more arrogant, so bear with her, anyway, it is unlikely that she will come to this place again in the future.

Someone carried a soft sedan chair over, this time it was obviously prepared in advance, not with male guards, but by four servants to carry the sedan chair, incense sticks and fragrant tea helped Jinxiu to sit on the sedan chair, two palace maids in front of the way, with five masters and servants out, but along the other road.

It wasn't until he left the Xianwang Mansion in his own carriage that Jinxiu breathed a sigh of relief.

Lifted the carriage curtain and looked back at the majestic gate of the palace, except for the two rows of doors in front of the door, there was not even a bird in front of the door! In this flower banquet, he became the last guest to leave the palace!

When Luo Zhen went out in the morning, he said that he was going out of the city today, and he might not be able to accompany Jinxiu to eat for dinner, so she didn't have to wait and ate first.

Jinxiu thought for a while, and said to Xiangzhi Xiangcha, who was sitting outside the carriage: "Don't go home first, turn around and go to Jiafu." ”

Xiangzhi ordered to go down, and the carriage turned around and headed towards Jiafu.

Aunt Jia and Jia Hui received the report and walked to the second gate to wait, but it happened that the second uncle Jia and Jia Yu were also going back to the inner courtyard for dinner, so several people gathered at the second gate to talk, and then walked in along the verandah together.

After dinner, Jinxiu replied to Second Uncle Jia a few words, and Jia Ting saw that she had something to find Ruan, so she didn't say anything and went back to the inner study by herself.

Ruan Shi pulled Jinxiu to his courtyard and went to the upper room to sit, and Jia Hui followed behind like a small tail.

Jinxiu first asked Ruan's who he could see today? Ruan Shi said: "I took Hui'er to my cousin's house for dinner today, but the relatives met a large group, and you don't know them!" ”

Jinxiu laughed when she heard it: "I only heard that my aunt was going to have a wine to eat, but I didn't expect it to be today!" So, my aunt and cousin really didn't see any special people today, and they said something special to you? ”

Nguyen asked, "Why is this a strange question?" If so, your cousin's breathless one wouldn't have told you earlier! By the way, you're going to the Xianwang Mansion Flower Banquet today, right? But what's new? ”

"Naturally, there is, not only is it fresh, you will definitely be surprised when you hear it!"

Jia Hui hurriedly urged: "Cousin-in-law, what are you waiting for?" Speak quickly, let me have fun too! ”

"Whether this counts as fun or not, it all depends on what you mean!" Jinxiu took Jia Hui's hand and said to Ruan's family: "Today, the princess of Nan'an County told me personally: she wants to marry Jia Hui for Gao Shizi!" Auntie, cousin Hui, what do you think about this? ”

Jia Hui opened her mouth slightly, and two red clouds flew up on her pink cheeks.

Ruan Shi was taken aback: "Xiu'er, what you said is true?" ”

Jinxiu nodded: "It is said that Gao Shizi is very good, and the county king's mansion is even more high, and our Hui'er's appearance and qualifications are more than enough to be a county princess!" But when I first heard the princess of Nan'an County say that, and she had a tone of grabbing her hand, as if our girl was very begging, I couldn't help but want to stop her. Therefore, I told her: My aunt's maiden relatives have long been fond of Hui'er, and today you are not only going to visit relatives, but also have the intention of looking at each other! The princess of Nan'an County was anxious when she heard this, and before the flower banquet was over, she hurriedly left the palace, I thought she might have come to find her aunt! I came here to find out: if my aunt saw her, it would be fine, if she didn't see it, and remember this stubble, she should speak consistently. ”

Jia Hui smiled pursively: "Cousin-in-law, when did you learn to be so cunning?" ”

Jinxiu glanced at her, and Ruan also slapped her: "Your cousin-in-law did the right thing!" That's it, and let us have a room to maneuver! This kind of thing shouldn't be listened to by your little girl, so go back to your room! ”

Jia Hui pouted: "Since it's about me, why don't you tell me?" ”

"Tsk! Why are you so shameless, kid? Nguyen glared at her in disgust.

"Didn't you teach it? What is related to your own interests is the most important thing, you must listen clearly and understand it! ”

Ruan Shi almost couldn't get up in one breath, pointed at Jia Hui and couldn't speak for a long time, Jia Hui approached to be coquettish and stupid, stretched out two little fat claws and beat her back and pinched her shoulders, so that Ruan didn't want to say anything, so he let her go beside her.

Jinxiu smiled and said to Jia Hui: "You tell the truth, do you like Gao Shizi?" ”

Jia Hui rolled her eyes and replied generously: "I think he's very good, it's pleasing to the eye!" ”

"Please listen clearly before answering: Do I like it?"

"There are many kinds of likes, which one is my cousin asking?"

Jinxiu was speechless, this girl's brain circuit is not ordinary, it seems that the bile nerves are relatively large!

It seems that there is no need to worry too much about her.

"You give me something serious!" Ruan slapped Jia Hui again, sighed and said, "Our family situation is different now, if it ...... Isn't that high? The princess of Nan'an County looks kind, but who knows what she looks like when she turns her back? I've only been in contact with her a few times, and I only recently had some words to say that in the past, even if she had befriended our aunt's wife, she met her from afar, and she walked with her head held high, and she didn't look at it from the corner of her eyes! ”

Jia Hui smiled: "Auntie, is that why she didn't see you?" ”

Ruan Shi glared at her: "You don't intervene!" You don't know how powerful it is, how many evil mothers-in-law have one thing in the open and one thing in secret, if you don't see people clearly, you will be guilty in the future! ”

Jia Hui stuck out her tongue, her little face was red like a sunflower: "What evil mother-in-law?" I didn't have a word of it! ”

Ruan Shi said: "Although there is no shadow, but the family is noble, if they really come to the door with gifts, can we easily shirk it?" Fortunately, your cousin-in-law said that first, and there will be an excuse when the time comes...... Alas! I can't talk about it, your father and your brother are here! ”

Jinxiu said: "If the princess of the county wants to come, it is estimated that she will come to the door tomorrow." My aunt will talk to my uncle and cousin tonight, and I will be prepared to deal with it. When I go back, I will tell him when Luo Zhen arrives home, learn about the situation of the palace of Nan'an County, and let him come over to meet his uncle when he goes to the yamen tomorrow morning! ”

Ruan nodded again and again: "Okay!" That's great! Then Xiu'er hurry home, it's not safe to stay overnight, I'll ask your cousin to send you! ”

"No, uncle, I have a guard."

"A guard is a guard, not as good as his own brother!"

Jia Hui took Jinxiu's hand and walked slowly along the verandah, and said with a smile: "Why don't I also go to send my cousin-in-law?" Just come back with my brother in a moment! ”

Jinxiu smiled: "Forget it, you just stay at home and think about your life's events!" ”

Jia Hui was silent for a while, and when she was about to walk to the second gate, she suddenly attached herself to Jinxiu's ear and said: "Actually, I vaguely know that Gao Shizi will let the princess of Nan'an County come to propose marriage!" ”

Jinxiu was stunned for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "You fairy girl?" There is still a prophet of the unknown! ”

Jia Hui laughed lightly: "That day in the Ningguo Mansion, when we were composing poems, there was a little girl from the county king's mansion who bit her ears with Gao Qingyue, and took away all my poems along with Gao Nuanyue and Gao Qingyue, and then Gao Qingyue helped me everywhere. Cousin-in-law, do you remember how many princes personally gave us rewards? That King Jing, he stood in front of me and said a lot to me, and he also took off a warm jade wrench in his hand on the spot and stuffed it into my hand! Gao Shizi came over and took the jade wrench away! Then he touched the jade bracelet on my wrist that the princess of Nan'an County gave me and said, 'You have this, you can't accept anyone else's!'" ”

Jinxiu looked at Jia Hui: "Just based on this, did you guess what he meant?" ”

Jia Hui lowered her eyes: "After that flower banquet, the two high girls wrote letters and sent things to me...... The eldest aunt was very busy, she didn't ask, and I didn't say! ”

Jinxiu couldn't help laughing: the little girl is living very freely!

Jia Hui said seriously: "Cousin-in-law, I actually can't see through it, but I know in my heart: what I want and how far I can go!" That doesn't look too bad, does it? At least the Nan'an County Royal Mansion won't let me be a side room, if King Jing is upset, maybe even a side concubine is rare! ”

Jinxiu said: "Silly girl, with your father and cousin here, how can you be a side room?" ”

Jia Hui smiled: "My father has been sick all these years, and he has long since lost his job. My cousin is very good and has always protected my brother and me, but he will be tired alone! In my heart, the most important thing is my relatives, I wish you well! My mother-in-law, husband, etc., give me as much as I want! ”

Jinxiu was speechless for a while, so she could only stretch out her hand and stroke the little girl's soft hair distressedly. (To be continued.) )
