And Xu Luo and Xu Rong still refused to let go of Emperor Zhou Hui, and finally said directly and sadly: "My Jiangzuo Xu family is a loyal martyr, but I can't imagine that there are people in this palace city inner garden who can't tolerate us, then the saint please speak, as long as you say a word, we are not afraid of the world's jokes, and we are willing to automatically return to our hometown, and lead the clan to move out of the imperial capital and return to the ancestral land." ”

As soon as Xu Luo and Xu Rong said this, Emperor Zhou Hui spoke on the spot, and he would find out about this matter.

Just kidding, if this matter is really a big trouble, then he doesn't have to be the king of the country, Jiangzuo Xu family is among the top gate valves of the three kings, but their daughter suffered this disaster in this palace, so if other people knew, what would they think? Isn't this just the word "absurd" that can cover up.

So in the end, Emperor Zhou Hui really investigated the matter thoroughly, and with the help of the Jiangzuo Xu family, the second prince Xie Yan was finally revealed.

"Father, the son is wronged."

But on the Guangming Palace, the second prince Xie Yan cried bitterly and shouted at the feet of Emperor Zhou Hui, only saying that it was his subordinates who made their own opinions, he just admired Xu Yourong simply, and had no other ideas. All of this is just the self-inflicted actions of his people, and it has nothing to do with him. Xie Yan pushed everything on his subordinates, and he refused to admit that he had given an order to let the dragon and tiger guards, who belonged directly to him, ambush Xu Yourong and Xu Mingwen.

And these fallacies, Xu Luo and Xu Rong naturally scoffed, but what was even more ridiculous was that although Emperor Zhou Hui didn't believe Xie Yan's words at all, he was also furious on the spot. But in the end, the punishment he gave Xie Yan was only confinement in the palace, except for these. There are no other penalties.

Xu Rong was in Guangming Hall that day, and when he heard such an order from Emperor Zhou Hui, he was so angry that he almost collided with Emperor Zhou Hui, the three girls of their Xu family, except for Xu Yourong, who had no major disasters, one almost drowned, and the other went through hardships. But in the end, not only did the other main messenger not come out, but even Xie Yan was only confined, which made Xu Rong really angry.

But Xu Rong hasn't taken a step yet. was pulled by Xu Luo, who was quick in his eyes.

Xu Rong was furious, and turned his head to let his eldest brother let go, but when he saw Xu Luo's blood-colored eyes, he suddenly couldn't say anything.

So all the things that happened in the Hall of Glory that day. In the end, Xie Jing and Xu Youshan got married. The second prince Xie Yan was confined in the palace and ended, but after that, how many people completely cooled their hearts and souls, and no one knows.

*****

In the middle of winter, the weather is getting colder and frightening, but in this bitter cold, there is a hint of late winter, which makes people involuntarily look forward to the end of winter. The season of spring is coming. After all, such a warm climate, no matter who likes it. With the revival of all things, the return of birds, and the rejuvenation of the earth, people can also start farming and look forward to the arrival of the next great harvest.

Xufu, Zhengyan Pavilion.

"Are you still in the mood to read?"

“……”

"Are you still in the mood to practice calligraphy?"

“……”

"Are you still in the mood for water?"

“……”

Xu Youshan's hand holding the teacup stopped in mid-air, and after sighing that she couldn't lift it or let it go, she looked at the angry Xu Yourong with some tears and laughter and said, "Sister, what else should I do?" I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, my eye sockets are deep, my face is pale, my shape is erect, and my whole person is haggard, so is it good? ”

Of course not, Xu Yourong doesn't want to see Xu Youshan like that, but she is angry, especially looking at such a leisurely Xu Youshan, she is even more angry.

"Okay, don't toss Sister Shan'er, come and sit down." And looking at Xu Yourong, who was angry but had nowhere to release, and Xu Youshan, who was tossed by Xu Yourong and couldn't live in peace, Xu Mingcheng could only sigh and pull Xu Yourong to his side and sit down, "What are you angry about, we all know, but now that things are like this, what do you want Sister Shan to do?" Isn't it more difficult for her to accept these than for us to be others, and why can you bear to blame her. ”

"I didn't blame her, how could I blame her." I'm to blame myself!

Xu Yourong suddenly refuted Xu Mingxi, but the last sentence was swallowed back by her. How could she blame Sister Shan'er, she just blamed herself, she knew that she wouldn't be with Xie Jing in the first place, and she didn't think about it so much, just agree to all his proposals, and the worst result would be to marry him, it was better than letting Xu Youshan, the youngest of the four of them, fall into this muddy water the deepest.

Xu Yourong blamed herself so much that she was about to go crazy, but Xu Youshan's mood was a little better when she had been overwhelmed by a big stone.

Anyone who loves themselves like this will be in a good mood.

For Xu Youshan, the existence of this kind of relatives who can trust and love each other unconditionally has always been envious of others, but she didn't expect that now she can have it herself. Therefore, Xu Youshan always wants to do her best to protect Xu Yourong and them, and do everything she can.

"Sister, I'm fine."

Therefore, as long as Xu Yourong and the others are okay now, as for some other trivial matters, Xu Youshan can feel that it is no longer so difficult to accept, anyway, she has an unchanging place here, and she has several relatives who love her and love her like this.

"It's all okay, so what's okay."

is different from Xu Youshan, who can already deal with it calmly, even if things have passed for a while, Xu Yourong is still in an unacceptable state; And like her, there is Xu Mingwen, and Xu Mingwen, who has been extremely silent since the day Xu Youshan and Xie Jing's family affairs were given by Emperor Zhou Hui, and can hardly say a word all day long.

"Big sister......" Xu Youshan was helpless.

"Xu Yourong, you're okay, the one who needs to be appeased the most now is not you, it's Sister Shan. But why do you want Sister Shan to comfort you now? ”

And maybe it was the night of the Hall of Glory. Xu Mingcheng was not with Xu Youshan and them at the time of the incident, so her violent temper is now rare to be the calmest of Xu Youshan's four, and because of Xu Mingcheng, who has stayed in Xu Mansion in Dongyang Lane for the past two days. Seriously, Xu Youshan breathed a sigh of relief.

Just like now, under Xu Mingming's reprimand, Xu Yourong turned his head angrily for the first time, but didn't say anything more. And Xu Mingwen, who made Xu Mingcheng and Xu Youshan the most relieved and worried, was the most headache for Xu Youshan, because if she was like Xu Yourong. It's okay to show all the emotions in your heart, but what makes Xu Youshan and Xu Mingcheng have a headache is that Xu Mingwen is silent.

That night. Everything that happened in the apse of the Ronghua Palace, Xu Mingcheng later knew everything from Xu Yourong and Xu Youshan, except for Xu Mingwen and Liu's mother, who was seriously injured in order to cover her, were also separated later, so they knew how Zhai Yu saved Xu Ming's wife later. There was only herself and Zhai Yu.

But since I learned that Xu Youshan was pushed into the lake and almost drowned. After finally Emperor Zhou Hui married Xie Jing and Xu Youshan, Xu Mingwen, who was still in the joy of Jedi life, suddenly remained silent. On Zhai Yu's side, he only took a few words about this incident, and did not elaborate, so everyone was still not very clear about how Zhai Yu saved Xu Mingwen that night.

But looking at Xu Mingwen's current state, no one dared to force her to say it, so everyone had to ignore the past.

"Sister Wang. This is your favorite pine crystal yam cake, eat a piece. ”

"Hmm."

But there's a good thing. Although Xu Mingwen has been silent, as long as Xu Youshan talks to her, she will still respond, although it is just "um", "oh", "good" and the like, but it is better than not saying nothing. And as long as it is the food that Xu Youshan handed to Xu Mingwen, Xu Mingwen will eat it, which makes Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng feel relieved again, at least Xu Mingwen will not starve to death......

And looking at Xu Mingwen like this, Xu Mingcheng also sighed, if Xu Youshan poured the poison into the wine in front of Xu Mingwen now, and then handed it to Xu Mingwen, she would probably drink it in one gulp!

"Okay, okay, Sister Shan, let's go out and walk around the garden, and if we stay in the house, it is estimated that we will be tossed out of illness by these two of them, let's go."

Xu Youshan is obviously the biggest victim of this incident, but the current situation is that she needs to appease the other two desperate people, which really makes Xu Mingcheng look at it and have a toothache, so she doesn't want to care about the two of them, and drags Xu Youshan out.

"Hey, Xu Mingcheng, where are you going to take Sister Shan?"

But Xu Yourong looked at Xu Mingyan and Xu Youshan who left, and pulled Xu Mingwen to catch up without saying a word.

So no matter what, Xu Youshan and the four of them finally braved the biting cold wind in this midwinter to go for a walk in the garden...... What a pleasure!

The surroundings of Weizhou Courtyard and Zheng Yan Pavilion, when the garden was built, many large and small gardens were deliberately built around these two courtyards, and there was a feeling of a hundred flowers. Therefore, after Xu Youshan and the four of them left the Zheng Yan Pavilion, they braved the cold winter wind and decided to find a shelter immediately after they couldn't take two steps, there were several pavilions for them to choose from.

And under Xu Mingming's casual fingers, Xu Youshan and his party also hurriedly walked towards the nearest pavilion, Wan'er and Qin Xin immediately sent someone to set up curtains, and put on stoves full of frost and carbon, so that the pavilion was immediately warm and pleasant.

"That's what you want to 'hang out'?" Xu Yourong asked Wan'er to untie her big cloak of lake blue pinching golden willow catkins, and squeezed Xu Ming's words.

"That's better than listening to you in the house." Not to be outdone, Xu Mingcheng shot back.

"What kind of thoughts are I missing, Xu Mingxi, don't talk about it."

"Yo, if you're not a broken thought, what is it?"

"I'm angry."

"Is it ~~~"

"Of course."

Xu Yourong and Xu Mingcheng quarreled again, which made Xu Youshan funny and a little nostalgic, for a long time, their emotions were not good, and they were even a little depressed, so don't talk about the two of them, it's rare that even a trace of spark can't be aroused, and this long-lost bickering. At this time, it sounds like Xu Youshan is really a little nostalgic.

"Sister Wang, look. The eldest sister and sister Yan quarreled again...... "But when Xu Youshan habitually wanted to turn around and find Xu Mingwen to cry and laugh at these two living treasure eldest sisters together, she looked back and saw it, but it was just Xu Ming's eyes staring blankly at the outside of the pavilion, and the piece was covered by the heavy snow in the morning into a sky and endless white.

Alas...... Helpless, Xu Youshan looked at Xu Mingwen like this, except for the word "helpless" in her heart. No more thoughts.

"Sister Sister-in-law." Xu Youshan walked to Xu Ming's side and called her softly, and Xu Ming's voice also moved her gaze back. fell on Xu Youshan's body. So Xu Youshan took a deep breath. said: "Sister Wu, I just want to ask you, if we swap places that night, the person they want to arrest is me." What will you do? Wouldn't you be like me? ”

Lower your eyes. The corners of Xu Ming's lips twitched, but she still didn't say a word.

"Sister-in-law, I never regretted any of the decisions I made at that time, I never did, so even if I beg you, don't do this again, okay?" Xu Youshan said to Xu Mingwen word by word: "Don't be like this, when I am so difficult. Isn't it too much for you to bother me like this? ”

Xu Ming's hand was placed on her knee. Suddenly, I grabbed it so hard that the green tendons on the snow-white soft wattles were clearly visible.

But Xu Youshan still said word by word, and said to Xu Mingwen clearly: "So I beg you, sister-in-law, don't be like this, okay?" Xu Youshan's words were a little cruel, which made Xu Yourong and Xu Mingming, who were fighting happily on the side, quiet down at this time, and quietly looked at Xu Youshan and Xu Mingwen's side.

But Xu Youshan didn't care about them, and continued to say to Xu Ming's sister-in-law, who had been silent: "So I beg you, sister-in-law, don't make me so sad that when you want to cry, you have to take care of your mood; Don't make me so sad that I want to cry, but I can't rely on you. ”

Time was so quiet that it stopped, and Xu Ming's eyes widened, and before she could react, tears had already burst out of her eyes.

Tick......

The gentle sound of the rain also sounded on the roof of this small pavilion at this time, but I don't know if the sound of the tears of the four girls in the pavilion was more silent, or the sound of the light rain falling on the earth, which was more silent than louder.

*****

Jiang Chunjin has been very busy recently, although in the eyes of outsiders, there is no time when it is not busy, but only the three major shopkeepers of wine and wealth know that not only Jiang Chunjin recently, but even all the forces in Xie Jing's secret are acting extremely actively. Of course, this can't be for the wedding of Xie Jing and Xu Youshan in the spring of next year, they are doing it for another more important event.

"Your Highness, all the things you have ordered have begun."

Jiang Chun into the main building on the main road of Xiling, and other Jiang Chun into the branch is the same, on the top floor is designed a layer of the most luxurious top attic platform, called the Phoenix Terrace. But this Phoenix Terrace in the main building is a little different from other places, because the Phoenix Terrace here is not open to the public. But of course, except for Emperor Zhou Hui, after all, as long as it is in the territory of the Great Zhou, it is all under the whole world, it is not the king's land, the shore of the land, and the king's ministers.

And if Emperor Zhou Hui really deigned to drive Jiang Chun into the world one day, then he couldn't enter this Phoenix Terrace, and it wasn't just a matter of Emperor Zhou Hui's words.

However, this is only limited to this special situation, otherwise even in the name of Xie Yan and Xie Wen, the two princes, their henchmen and relatives have also eaten a big closed door in front of this phoenix platform. Because this Jiang Chunjin is the real big boss, it is the eldest prince Xie Jing, not to mention that it is just these small personal entourage, even if it is Xie Yan and Xie Wen, if they want to fight him in this kind of thing outside the court, it is all a big thing.

Therefore, before they could use the means of the government to suppress Jiang Chunjin, Xie Jing had already asked the three big shopkeepers of wine and wealth to poke this matter in front of the gate of the Dutianfu, and then told Emperor Zhou Hui through Xu Xi's mouth.

Several two-dignified court officials, in the name of His Royal Highness the Prince, actually made trouble in Jiang Chun, who was named the imperial merchant by Emperor Zhou Hui, in order to not open to the outside world as Jiang Chunjin had already said, in order to store the delicate Wen Aya, so as not to delay the annual tribute to the royal family.

And that's it, everyone is still here to give you the tribute of the royal Xie family. The Phoenix Terrace, which was not opened, was finally resigned to Jiang Chunjin by the henchmen of the two princes of the Xie family, and did not hesitate to use the power of the official family to oppress him. disturbed the people's hearts and made the face of the Heavenly Family damaged, how could Emperor Zhou Hui not be angry?

So in the end, those subordinates who went to Jiangchun to make trouble in the name of Xie Yan and Xie Wen were not only severely punished and dismissed by Emperor Zhou Hui for stealing chickens and rice, but even Xie Yan and Xie Wen were both scolded by Emperor Zhou Hui, resulting in our two royal palaces who are the most favored by Emperor Zhou Hui on weekdays. Not to mention the many sufferings, even the face has been lost.

And because of this experience, let alone those important ministers in the court in the future. Even the second prince Xie Yan and the third prince Xie Wen didn't want to get closer to Jiang Chun anymore.

But in the Phoenix Terrace, where the culprit caused all this, there was a person sitting with a big grin at this time, and what was said to be the best Wen Aya to be dedicated to the royal family Xie Clan and something like that was kept was now at a glance. Not even a shadow was visible.

And the young man standing next to the man who was seated. If Xu Youshan was here, she would definitely be able to recognize who it was at a glance, Wen Ge.

Wen Ge is now reporting something to the person who is sitting, Xie Jing, and he is saying every word very quietly, and he is also very cautious.

"Okay, let's do it, let the people below be careful." Xie Jing now has a short blade in his hand. The sheath of the short blade is made of an unknown piece of leather, with some intricate patterned trimmings. The part that extends from the handle of the knife is also inlaid with a lot of red sapphires and amber feathers, which is extremely gorgeous.

"Yes." Wen Ge was standing beside Xie Jing, and he could naturally see that Xie Jing was playing with the short blade in his hand, and Wen Ge was still not familiar with it. Because this is a treasure that Xie Jing first asked people to collect everywhere, just to hear earlier that the eldest lady of the Xu family suddenly liked this kind of small and gorgeous blade, so Xie Jing sent Jiang Chunjin's caravan all over the world to inquire everywhere.

What I didn't expect was that after these treasures traveled a long way and entered Beijing quickly, the marriage of Xie Jing and Xu Youshan had become a sure thing.

"Nothing else, just go down."

"Uh......"

Xie Jing didn't know what he was thinking, his narrow eyes were slightly closed at this time, but even so, Wen Ge's embarrassed expression, Xie Jing could still see it and frowned and asked, "What else is going on?" ”

"Your Highness, just... Just now, the shopkeeper of Cai Er came to ask, do you need a ...... for your wedding robe after the Spring Festival?"

"No, I don't."

Before Wen Ge's words were finished, Xie Jing interrupted, "Let's go down." ”

"Yes."

And this time Wen Ge ran faster than a rabbit, and disappeared as soon as he slipped through the smoke, so at this time on the huge phoenix platform, only Xie Jing stayed here, watching the moonlight pouring down, in his eyes as black as a jewel, what did the brilliance of the circulation represent, except for Xie Jing himself, I am afraid that no one will know anymore.

But although few people can guess Xie Jing's thoughts, Wenge's thoughts are very easy to guess, for example, now, after Wenge flew away from the Phoenix Terrace, he had just gone downstairs when he was blocked by Agarwood at the staircase, and then Agarwood nervously asked Wenge: "What does Your Highness say?" ”

"What do you say?" But Wenge looked at the agarwood in confusion.

"It's the shopkeeper of Cai Er who asked His Highness, the robe for his wedding with that person, does it need to be made by Xuan Zhaoxuan from now on with the top-notch Wen Aya." Agarwood said anxiously.

"Oh, that's it." Wen Ge suddenly realized, but he suddenly looked at Agarwood a little strangely, "Agarwood, what is called 'the wedding between His Royal Highness and that person', it is Miss Xu Si, you should pay attention to your attitude, she will become our master mother in the future." ”

"Mistress? Ha ......" Agarwood scoffed at Wen Ge's words, "Wen Ge, don't pretend to be stupid with me, we all know, if it weren't for the eccentric relationship, just like that slut with the status of a concubine whose parents died, she could also marry His Royal Highness as the prince and concubine......"

"Shut up."

With a loud shout, it suddenly resounded through this small world, Agarwood's face was pale, and Wen Ge also secretly looked at it badly, and a fat figure appeared from the front. (To be continued......)
