When the father and mother came out of the study, the eldest princess was already waiting under the porch, turning her back slightly, obviously not saying hello.

Xia Qingyun quietly glanced at her mother, and waited for them to go away before inviting the eldest princess into the study.

The eldest princess's eyelids were red and swollen, and she knew that she had just cried for a short time.

Xia Qingyun helped her sit down on the couch, didn't rush to ask the reason, took a plum blossom seal incense from the brocade box and put it into the celadon incense plate and lit it. I took another piece of white tea cake from the previous year, dismantled a small handful and put it on the tea lotus to wake up.

The water in the copper kettle boiled, and Xia Qingyun brewed tea without hurrying. Wait for others to open their minds, and you can't ask questions.

The eldest princess sat sullenly for a long time, sighed, and said leisurely: "There is someone outside the horse." ”

Xia Qingyun took the lid of the cup and flicked it lightly, "How did my sister know?" ”

The eldest princess pulled out a brocade handkerchief and threw it on the kang table, Xia Qingyun picked it up and saw that there was a pink and purple peony embroidered on the handkerchief, and a sweet and greasy lily of the valley fragrance came to her nose, and she couldn't help frowning.

I heard the eldest princess say in a deep voice: "A few days ago, the horses always went out early and returned late, so I became suspicious. He should have taken a break today, and said that he would take Shan'er to Fang Market to play, but he said that there was something in Hanlin Courtyard and he was in a hurry to leave. We exchanged a few words, and in a fit of urgency, I tugged at his sleeve, and the handkerchief fell out of the sleeve. ”

Xia Qingyun frowned, "Do you admit it?" ”

"He just holds his head and doesn't say anything!" The eldest princess gritted her teeth, "When a man is working outside, it is inevitable that he will sleep in the willows, even if he takes a concubine, it is not impossible." However, I am angry that he has prevaricated with me for so many years. What other hidden diseases are made up! Tell me, are men with hidden diseases embarrassed to look for women outside? ”

The eldest princess's words confirmed her previous guesses, put down the teacup, she held the eldest princess's hand and asked, "That sister has asked, which lady is the good woman?" ”

"Whew! Can a lady from a big family do such a dirty thing? It must be the singer of the Qinglou who seduced him! ”

The eldest princess was indignant, "The concubine refuses to say her name, but I have physical evidence, even if I turn the capital upside down, I also want to find out the little slut." ”

Xia Qingyun picked up the peony Jinpa and looked at it, "Sister looked at Jinpa." It is a very rare Shu brocade. I'm afraid"

"Could it be someone from the palace?" The eldest princess stood up suddenly, "I'll go into the palace to tell the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, and let them make decisions for me!" ”

"Sister!" Xia Qingyun stopped her and said earnestly: "Sister, don't panic. At this time, it is necessary to take a long-term view. If you run like that, make a fuss. Where did the colt's face go? Doesn't it hurt the relationship between husband and wife even more? ”

The eldest princess sat down dejectedly, tears flashing in her eyes.

Xia Qingyun took off the veil to help her wipe away her tears, and comforted: "Sister, think about it." The emperor is the most important woman's virtue of his daughter's family. You also said that it is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines, although he is a concubine and cannot marry an aunt, but it is okay to take a concubine. If the emperor knows, I'm afraid he will have to say that his sister is jealous and doesn't know what to do. ”

The eldest princess was slightly stunned, and Xia Qingyun continued: "This matter is the fault of the horse, if he doesn't care about his sister, there is no need to hide it from you." ”

The eldest princess nodded and asked, "What should you do in your opinion?" ”

Xia Qingyun sat down beside her and muttered, "To solve the bell, you must tie the bell." The princess may wish to make friends with the colt to see how far he has come with the woman. If it is a dewy feeling, you might as well read it for the sake of the husband and wife for many years and not pursue it. If it's a concubine at most."

She stopped at this point, and persuaded others to persuade herself first, what woman is willing to let her husband be happy with another woman? What should I do if I encounter such a thing? Although the women of Qi acquiesced to their husbands having other women, they had a knot in their hearts after all.

I think she had also said to Si Hong Bowen before that she wanted to 'have a couple for a lifetime', how could she persuade the eldest princess to allow a concubine?

The eldest princess seemed to have opened her mind at this time, "My sister is right, I will pretend to allow him first, find out the woman's name and address, and then send someone to inquire." If the family background is innocent, it is not impossible. But if it's a Qinglou woman, it's not allowed to enter the house! ”

Xia Qingyun was stunned, she didn't have the idea to let the eldest princess deceive the horse master.

was about to persuade, but the eldest princess got up and said goodbye, "I'm bothering my sister, I'll go back and ask him." ”

When she walked to the door, she turned around and said, "I only said that I was alone with you in this matter, you can ask for it."

Xia Qingyun stepped forward and said, "I know." If my sister has something to do, it's always good to have one more person to discuss. ”

Seeing off the eldest princess, her heart was churning, and she couldn't calm down. asked Qingmei to accept the begonia dew on the table and go to the treasure pavilion to relax.

For three days in a row, there was no movement in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, Xia Qingyun was worried in his heart, but it was not good to take the initiative to ask.

She quietly told Xue'er about this in the treasure pavilion, Xue'er was the divine beast of her blood contract, so naturally she would not spread the matter.

After listening to Xia Qingyun's story, Xue'er was so angry that she stomped her feet and scolded: "There is no good thing for men in the world!" After marrying a wife, and his wife gave birth to a child for him all his life, why do you have to go outside to mess with flowers? Hum! It's so unfair! If you want me to say, since a man can marry three or four concubines, we women should also find the second master and the third master, who is afraid of whom! ”

Xia Qingyun stroked his forehead, "Okay, okay, I'm just panicking in my heart before I tell you." Let others hear your words, and don't arrest you as a monster. ”

"I'm a monster, no, it's a divine beast!" Xue'er twisted her body, "Our divine beast is loyal, if we find a lifelong partner, we have to stay together for a lifetime." Men like you human beings, each one is a big carrot! ”

Xia Qingyun smiled faintly, "One rod overturned a boatload of people." Everything is like you said. For example, the prince of Zhenguo, the prince of the protector, and the blog post, don't they all value only their wives? ”

Xue'er teased: "Sister Qingyun, you and Young Master Si Hong haven't gotten married yet, so you are not ashamed of your wife's wife?" ”

Xia Qingyun blushed, "If you are engaged, you are a family." It can be seen that men in the world are not all frivolous. ”

Xue'er pursed her lips and said in her heart: "This is not good, don't forget that there is a bewitching Toya county lord pestering your husband, man"

But she just thought about it in her heart, and she didn't dare to say it in front of Xia Qingyun.

"Sister Qingyun? The eldest princess sent a message! Qingmei's voice came from outside the study, and Xia Qingyun hurriedly dodged out.

"The eldest princess asked me to go to the princess's mansion immediately, something big must have happened." She crumpled the letter into a ball and clutched it in the palm of her hand, "You go and help me go back to my mother, and I'll take Xue'er over." ”

As soon as he entered the princess's mansion, Xia Qingyun felt that the atmosphere was not quite right. The subordinates each shrank their necks and did not dare to speak loudly.

There was no one in the living room, and after a while, the princess's maid Luomei came in and saluted: "The princess is waiting for the county lord in the room." ”

Xia Qingyun pushed open the door and was startled by the scene in front of him. (To be continued......)
