Chapter 162: Summoned
After everything was ready, I thought about leaving early the next morning, but I didn't want the courtyard to be lively all the time, first came Xia Song's voice, then the surprised sound of wind chimes, and then came to the door;
"Second master, madam, Xia Song said that someone came to the palace, and he was willing to go back only when he saw his wife."
At this time, Yiqing was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, her mind was still a little confused, how could she be a person in the palace again, when did she become so popular. Jing Zechun had already gotten up, and he wanted to send Yiqing out of the city gate first, but when he heard this, his forehead frowned.
"Someone from the palace, what are you looking for me?"
After reacting, Yiqing began to draw her eyebrows, if she really wanted to enter the palace, she had to prepare early. Jing Zechun neatly sorted out his clothes and came to her.
"It's either Concubine Zhao or the princess, or you go back first, they're just that."
"What?"
Jing Zechun heard that he carefully picked a peach blossom hairpin in the jewelry box.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of them. It's better for you to go back today, just ignore them. Left and right are some vexatious trouble. ”
Yiqing raised her eyebrows, unreasonable? It looks like there's a plan. I thought about it for a long time, and finally said;
"No, I'm going to see what they're going to do."
The voice was gentle but unusually firm, and Jing Zechun was startled when he heard it.
"You're not coming back? But someone from home wants you to go back? ”
By the way, it is better to avoid it, these people have been pampered since childhood, and the living environment has long created an invincible character, and the darkness in their hearts is not something that a Yiqing can withstand. It's better to go back. Yiqing sighed.
"Two days ago, I knelt outside the Changning Palace for three hours, and now I have already become the laughing stock of Shangjing, if I leave now, it will be to admit that I am afraid of them, although I can't offend them, I have to let them know that I, Qiu Yiqing, am not so easy to bully."
Yu Bi Jing Zechun's eyes were all surprised when he looked at her, these words came out of her mouth?
"Are you...... What stimulated you? Zhao is embarrassed by you again? ”
Yiqing looked up at him;
"Does she have to embarrass me for me to say these things?"
"No, I'm just curious how you suddenly had this idea."
"It's not all of a sudden, I've been feeling uncomfortable for a long time. Especially with Zhao Huan in the palace, how long can I hide. You can't hide from what you should be. ”
"You've figured it out. Concubine Zhao is a younger sister, and she will not be wronged. ”
Jing Zechun was a little helpless when he said this, but he couldn't stop it. If she stays, it may be of great help to the future.
"I thought about it, since I have a problem, I can't blindly hide, so why bother with her ambition."
'Long her ambition' Jing Zechun couldn't help laughing;
"That's right. She has grown her ambition. extinguished his own prestige. That's not good. ”
Yiqing had already sorted it out, and when she heard his words, she looked carefully at the bronze mirror and replied;
"Yes."
The two of them went out just as Xue Fang entered the house.
"Ma'am. It's all ready, the palace people are gone, and we can set off. ”
"Don't go, unload everything! When I came back later, I personally wrote a letter to my family. ”
After speaking, Xue Fang, who was stunned, took the lead in going out. From beginning to end, the smile on Jing Zechun's face did not stop, and he always felt that something seemed to be changing.
The main hall of the Jing family has been prepared, Jing Zechen and Zhao have already accompanied the people in the palace to drink tea, and when Yiqing and Jing Zechun arrived, Zhao's face was obviously ugly.
"Why has it been so long, it's just usual, but today Cheng's father-in-law came in person, and he doesn't understand the rules at all."
"It was when I heard that Cheng's father-in-law was here, and I was nervous and inevitably had to pay more attention to my appearance, but I didn't think about it, but I neglected Cheng's father-in-law, it's really my fault, I'll apologize first, and I hope that my father-in-law doesn't mind."
When Zhao heard this, he only felt that the fire was big, and there were many excuses for coming late, which was really clever, and Huan'er was really right. The Zhao family was not happy, but Cheng's father-in-law did not, and deliberately took a look at Yiqing.
"It's okay, our family came early. Listen to the mother's mouth now! ”
As soon as these words came out, Jing Zechen and Zhao immediately stepped forward and bowed slightly, and Jing Zechun and Yiqing waited behind to listen to the instructions.
"Concubine Zhao said that the second lady was wronged because the princess came to Changning Palace a few days ago, and today Changning Palace held a banquet to invite courtiers, and the second lady can go with the eldest lady just to shock the second lady."
'Shock? It's too late! If she had waited for her to suppress the shock, she would have died for a long time, but Yiqing was slandered in her heart, but she didn't expect her right sleeve to move slightly, Jing Zechun was reminding her to be grateful!
"Thank you for your grace."
In the end, Cheng's father-in-law instructed again;
"It's a dinner party, it's set at three o'clock in the morning, don't miss the time, two ladies."
"Gong Xie reminds us that we will definitely enter the palace on time."
After speaking, Zhao stepped forward and stuffed a bulging black brocade bag. Cheng's father-in-law stuffed his sleeve expressionlessly and left the Jing family.
"I still have business, so I'll go out first."
Jing Zechen was about to go out after speaking, but his front foot had already stepped out and suddenly looked back at Jing Zechun;
"Come out with me."
Zhao Shi saw that there were only two people left, so he was much more stiff;
"The last time I just asked you to enter the palace alone, it caused a storm in the city, and now you are a celebrity in Beijing. Since it's all over, I won't mention it, if you don't show the reputation of the Jing family today, it will be ruined in your hands, so let's do it yourself! ”
It's all accusing Yiqing, and it doesn't mean anything about her, the last time she was punished for entering the palace, doesn't it have anything to do with Concubine Zhao? In the middle, Zhao Huanruo said no, who would write it.
"Thank you sister-in-law for reminding me, since I mentioned the reputation, Yiqing didn't understand the rules of the palace when I first arrived, and it was just me who entered the palace alone last time, since I entered the palace with my sister-in-law today, I want you to mention it more, after all, it is for the reputation of the Jing family."
This was very unpleasant in Zhao's ears, but Yiqing used the Jing family to speak, so that she had no reason to refute it at all, and she didn't bother to pay attention to her.
"Hurry back and get ready."
Yiqing saluted and went out, the Zhao family's hostility towards her had turned into disgust, and it was really the Zhao family.
After returning to Beiyuan, Xue Fang asked anxiously;
"Why didn't Madame go back again?"
Everything was packed up, and it was time to go. It's better to go back now, just in time for the messages in Beijing to stop a little. Who wondered why she changed her mind on the spur of the moment.
"Things have changed temporarily, Concubine Zhao is going to have a banquet for the court women today, and I will go too, which can be regarded as a shock to me."
When Xue Fang heard that, she quickly closed the door and leaned over to her and whispered;
"She just punished you a few days ago, and now she has summoned you to the palace. It's not very good out there now, and if you go, you'll have to meet those ladies. (To be continued......)
