Zhao Qing did what he said, neither put pressure on the Marquis of Wenxin, nor forced An Ruoxian to marry into the palace immediately, but just asked the Hou Mansion to treat An Ruoxian well, and after doing it, he waited for An Ruoxian to be his concubine willingly.

Zhao Qing's request was undoubtedly rude, Mrs. An was very dissatisfied, but the situation was pressing, she had to order the Hou Mansion to offer An Ruoxian as a Bodhisattva, not only to meet any of her requirements as much as possible, but also to provide her with treatment that was almost the same as that of her daughter, for a while, An Ruoxian became the most "noble" person in the Hou Mansion.

In addition, Zhao Qing often sends gifts to An Ruoxian, making her life better.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation have been improved, but An Ruoxian is not happy, she still regards this as Zhao Qing's coercion and temptation to her.

She became more and more resistant to being a concubine for Zhao Qing.

And as the news of Zhao Qing's pursuit of her spread, she also became a popular figure in Shengjing, and often received posts from the family inviting her to attend banquets.

King Gong is so powerful that he is favored by his only son, even if he wants to keep a low profile.

An Ruoxian used to look forward to being in the limelight, but she was always unwilling, but now she doesn't want to come out, but her reputation is shocking, and she feels very troubled.

On this day, Zhao Qing sent fresh melons and fruits, and the latest jewelry and clothes to the Hou Mansion, even if An Ruoxian was unwilling, she had to keep her face calm and take Du Juan and Qiulan to thank her.

After entertaining the palace steward who came over with gifts, An Ruoxian planned to go back to the room to rest, but Murong stopped her and said, "If you don't want to be a concubine for Prince Gong, make it clear to him and ask him not to send anything over." Otherwise, outsiders will think that you have agreed. ”

Although Murong is a woman in a deep house and does not understand the affairs of the court, she knows how to judge the situation. Knowing that King Gong doesn't just want to be the regent, it's just that King Gong is now in power, and the Hou Mansion is not good at offending him, so he can only entrust him with a false snake, but the Hou Mansion doesn't want to have too close relationships with such a person, who knows when he will fall?

Now Prince Gong's Mansion has sent people over two times in three days, and she has politely entertained her every time. In his heart, he was impatient, and at the same time, he was secretly worried, for fear of being misunderstood that the Marquis of Wenxin Mansion was colluding with King Gong. At that time, the emperor's mind was clear, and he condemned the Hou Mansion.

If it weren't for the life of the family, Murong didn't want to care who An Ruoxian was ambiguous with, but now she had to say this.

Hear the words. An Ruoxian's already irritable mood became worse. said in an unkind tone: "I have already told him clearly, he wants to send it himself, what does it matter to me?" I'm a victim too! If you are dissatisfied, go and tell Zhao Qing yourself, don't bother me! ”

With that, he threw his sleeves and left angrily.

Murong Shi was rushed by her words, and his face was blue and purple for a while.

may have the support of An Ruoxian, and An Ruoxian has become more and more unkind these days, except for Mrs. An. She dared to shout at anyone, and gave a smile when she was happy. I was not happy and shook my face directly, as if the family owed her.

Therefore, even if she gained power, the Hou Mansion did not have half of the people to confront her, but treated her like a plague, and hid away when he saw her.

It was not the first time that Murong had been thrown by An Ruoxian, and he was depressed for a while before he came to his senses, and said to his own marrying Zhao Mama: "I would rather her marry into Prince Gong's mansion, with her temperament, see what kind of life she can live at that time!" ”

She was also so angry, otherwise she wouldn't have said this about juniors.

Mama Zhao patted her heart and smoothed her down, and said indignantly: "Miss Ten is becoming more and more unruly, even Madame, you dare to contradict it, according to the slave maid, you should sue the old lady and let the old lady teach her a lesson!" ”

Murong may not have this idea, but after thinking about it, he dispelled this thought, and sighed: "I'm an elder, why bother with her juniors, besides, she now has the support of King Gong's son, even her mother can't punish her." ”

"The young ladies of the Hou Mansion are all well-behaved, polite and well-behaved, why is there such an outlier? What does Prince Gong like about her? Mama Zhao also sighed.

"That's what I couldn't figure out." Murong Shi thought for a moment and said, "Moreover, she actually knew the prince of King Gong, and we were completely kept in the dark. ”

"Didn't you meet at Princess Kotosu's cherry blossom viewing party last time?" Mama Zhao asked suspiciously.

"How is that possible!" Murong sneered, if An Ruoxian really shined that day, it could be said that Prince Gong was overwhelmed by her talent, but the fact is that she lost face, how could such a woman attract a man? And it's still a man of such honorable status.

"I'm sure she already knew Prince Gong before the flower viewing party." Murong said firmly.

Mama Zhao's eyes flashed, and her eyes were filled with disdain, she dared to associate with a man in private, this Miss Ten was really eye-opening. Mama Zhao looked down on her heart a little more.

The master and servant did not dare to say more, and after a few words, they revealed the matter.

Murong didn't say it, it didn't mean that the old lady didn't know, but just as she thought, the old lady couldn't do anything with An Ruoxian now, so the whole family could only silently endure An Ruoxian's rudeness and presumptuousness.

Everyone's forbearance made An Ruoxian more and more inches, she despised the bullying of Murong and others, and did not dare to offend Prince Gong's Mansion, while venting all the grievances she had suffered in the past, as long as she saw the suffocating appearance of everyone in the Hou Mansion who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, she was indescribably happy in her heart.

She was even a little grateful for what Zhao Qing had done.

It's just that she is still angry with Zhao Qing, and she talks about her unwillingness to be with him every day.

Du Juan was punished because of what happened last time, and she didn't dare to say that An Ruoxian was not, but she hated An Ruoxian to the bone in her heart, and she couldn't wait to teach An Ruoxian a lesson.

As mentioned earlier, because Zhao Qing frequently showed favor to An Ruoxian, An Ruoxian's worth rose, and many wives and wives would send her posts when they held banquets, and she did not refuse to come, and she also took An Ruoyun and An Ruohuan with her every time to show her generosity and selflessly provide opportunities for her sisters to come out.

An Ruoyun and An Ruohuan are miserable, where is An Ruoxian for their good, she is torturing them at all! She not only treats them as foils, but also calls them like maids, but in front of outsiders, she shows her deep sisterhood with them. So that they can't even resist, they don't want to go to the banquet with her at all!

An Ruoyun is sensitive and slender, and the first few times she was forced by An Ruoxian to come back from a banquet together. She also secretly cried. It's just that she is also sensible, and she knows that she can't offend An Ruoxian now, so she hides her grievances in her stomach.

The entire Hou Mansion became gloomy and dull because of An Ruoxian.

coincided with the birthday of the boss of the Zhou Pavilion, and the Zhou Mansion held a birthday banquet and invited the family of the Marquis of Wenxin to drink the wedding wine, and Mrs. An happily agreed to go.

originally didn't plan to take An Ruoxian there, but An Ruoyun was still happy to be able to get rid of An Ruoxian's shadow temporarily. However, before leaving, An Ruoxian suddenly came and said that she wanted to go together. The old lady did not agree. She threatened to go alone, and the old lady had no choice but to take her with her.

Therefore, along the way, An Ruoyun's sisters were all depressed. Zhou Mi'er comforted her for a while. It was only when An Ruolan was brought out that they were happy.

When they arrived at Zhou's mansion, the family was ushered into the living room to sit down, and Zhou Mi'er and An Wenyan, as Zhou Ge's granddaughter and grandson-in-law, were called to help entertain guests as soon as they entered the door, and they were so busy that their feet didn't touch the ground.

Zhou Mi'er asked the personal maid to pay attention to the movement at the door, and asked An Ruolan to notify her as soon as she came.

An Ruolan came neither early nor late, she came with Wei Shao, the Duchess of Weiguo, after sending a congratulatory gift. The three of them were also led to the living room to sit down, and they were arranged at the table in the Wenxin Marquis Mansion. The good thing is that it's a big table. I can sit down.

When they saw each other, they talked about their daily routines.

An Ruolan asked An Ruoyun about the situation of the sisters in the Hou Mansion, although An Ruoyun had a stomach full of grievances and wanted to tell her, but because An Ruoxian was present, she could only say that everyone was very good.

An Ruoxian saw that An Ruoyun was forcing a smile, so she couldn't help sneering, brushed her hair hanging behind her ears, and said lazily: "Sister Yun, please help me pour me a cup of tea, it's inconvenient now." ”

Although he called his sister, his tone was not polite and polite, as if he was calling the maid.

Hearing this, the faces of the people at the table changed.

An Ruoxian was very happy, she just wanted to see the aggrieved face of the An family!

An Ruolan frowned unhappily, and Wei Shao snorted coldly: "You can't break your hand, you can't even pour a cup of tea?" ”

It's okay that she didn't speak, but as soon as she spoke, An Ruoxian remembered what Zhao Qing said, and her heart was panicked.

Glaring back at Wei Shao, An Ruoxian's gaze was almost like she wanted to eat people.

An Ruoyun didn't want to make a big deal out of it, so she hurriedly explained: "Sister Xian's hand is twisted, it's really inconvenient for me, I'll help you pour tea." As he spoke, he picked up the teapot.

An Ruolan held down the teapot, her face sank like water, and said: "You are a concubine, what are you talking about helping a concubine pour tea, she brought her own maid and let her maid serve her." ”

She understood that An Ruoxian was deliberately embarrassing An Ruoyun, I am afraid that this kind of thing is not once or twice, it seems that the favor of Prince Gong has made An Ruoxian forget what it means to be a rule.

The news that Zhao Qing wanted to hire An Ruoxian as a concubine had spread in Shengjing, and even if she didn't go out much now, she had heard about it.

An Ruoyun was a little embarrassed, but under An Ruolan's stern gaze, she still sat down obediently.

Seeing this, An Ruoxian's eyes were on fire, she slapped the table, and said sharply: "What does Sister Lan mean by this?!" ”

"Literally." An Ruolan glanced at her hand coldly and said, "I see that your hand is good, it doesn't look like something is wrong at all, it's okay, just come and pour me a cup of tea." ”

An Ruoxian's eyes widened in disbelief, and she was a little suspicious that her ears were not only a problem.

She couldn't believe that anyone dared to call her!

As soon as her brain was hot, she directly picked up the unfinished tea in front of her and poured it on An Ruolan, but Wei Shao quickly blocked it with a saucer.

"What are you doing?!" Putting down the plate, Wei Shao slapped the table and roared.

This roar attracted the attention of the guests at the other tables.

An Ruoxian was stunned, and then she realized what she had done, but it was impossible for her to bow her head, so she stiffened her neck and didn't speak.

An Ruolan glanced at her with a calm face, got up and walked to her side, slapped her hard, and said, "Since you forgot the rules, I don't mind teaching you, if I see you bullying your sisters next time, it will be more than just a slap in the face." ”

This slap stunned everyone.

Who doesn't know that Prince Gong takes An Ruoxian as the top of his heart, and sends all good things in front of her, so many young ladies bow their heads and smile in front of her, but the county lord of Chenshuang dares to slap her in public, which is really shocking and comfortable!

All the female guests present applauded An Ruolan in their hearts, they had long hated An Ruoxian, a humble and domineering girl.

Even An Ruoyun, who is weak, secretly screams cool.

Du Juan, who had long seen An Ruoxian's displeasure, also applauded An Ruolan in his heart.

An Ruoxian covered her hot face, and it took a long time to react, pointing at An Ruolan, and shouting with red eyes: "You dare to hit me, why do you?!" ”

"Just because I am the serious daughter of the Marquis of Wenxin, your sister, and the county lord of Chenshuang." An Ruolan raised his head proudly and said in a low voice: "No matter who the backer behind you is, I am not afraid, if you have the ability, you can let him find an excuse to cure my crimes, I want to see who dares to touch me when my husband is fighting for the country!" ”

When the soldiers were fighting outside, even the emperor did not dare to touch his relatives lightly, because this would chill all the soldiers and the people.

An Ruoxian's heart was shocked, and she couldn't say a word anymore.

An Ruolan glanced at her coldly, returned to the table and sat down, raised his chin, and ordered, "Pour tea for everyone." ”

An Ruoxian trembled with anger, clenched her fists and asked, "Why me?" ”

"Because you are a concubine, you have the lowest status at this table." An Ruolan was ruthless at all, and the sound of the two words of the concubine was very heavy.

An Ruoxian had to take a deep breath to keep herself from suffocating to death due to excessive anger.

Holding the teapot stiffly, she poured tea for everyone in the room.

Everyone in the An family felt that they were angry.

An Ruoxian insisted on coming with her today, just because she expected An Ruolan to appear, she came over to embarrass An Ruolan on purpose, but she didn't want to end up, it was An Ruolan who embarrassed her, she regretted it, she knew that this was the case, how could she be humiliated by herself!

Feeling the mocking gaze coming from all directions, at this moment, she hated An Ruolan.

When the banquet was about to start, Zhou Mi'er came to sit, and when she saw the red marks on An Ruoxian's face, she was first surprised, and then she understood, and applauded in her heart.

King Gong and Zhao Qing also came to drink the wedding wine, and the news of the women's banquet soon reached their ears.

King Gong stroked his palms and laughed: "The Lord of Chenshuang County is really extraordinary, but it's a pity that I don't have such a smart and bold daughter!" ”

There was no secret of appreciation in his tone.

Meng Sanshao, who was called to sit on the side, smiled slightly.

Zhao Qing had a dark face and a gloomy face.

King Gong glanced at him and said, "Look what kind of goods you picked!" It's a self-inflicted humiliation! If you still want her to enter the door of my palace, warn her to be more restrained and let her apologize to the county lord of Chenshuang, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

This was said to Meng Sanshao.

Zhao Qing's face was even more ugly, but he had to bow his head in response.

Soon the banquet opened, everyone pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and the banquet hall was very lively. (To be continued......)
