Chapter 21: The Old Man (1)

A noisy sound of footsteps sounded outside the mourning hall.

Xu Jinyu quietly pulled Xu Zheng back a few steps, and just retreated to the corner of the mourning hall. cleverly used the crowd to cover the figure.

Xu Zheng half-jokingly whispered: "Everyone else rushed forward to curry favor, but the two of us brothers and sisters did the opposite and hid in the corner." ”

Xu Jinyu replied half-truthfully: "If it weren't for the fear of attracting attention, I would have sneaked out to hide for a while." "She didn't want to see King Qin at all.

Xu Zheng was amused and laughed dumbly, and said with relief: "Don't be too nervous. Although I have never met His Royal Highness King Qin, I have also heard that His Royal Highness King Qin's Corporal Lixian has an excellent reputation, so it should not be difficult to get along with. And we didn't plan to put our faces on our faces closely, so there was nothing to worry about. ”

I hope King Qin doesn't pay attention to their brother and sister. Xu Jinyu pulled the corners of her lips casually.

The group walked into the mourning hall.

The young man who walked in the front was handsome and handsome, and he looked forward to Shenfei with his head and feet.

In terms of appearance, this young man is not as good as Ji Ze, who has a face like a crown of jade, but he has more of a lofty and calm bearing than Ji Ze.

This young man is none other than Murong Ye, the king of Qin.

The young lady on the right side of the King of Qin is the Princess Li of Qin, dressed in gorgeous clothes and beautiful.

To the left of King Qin is a girl about fourteen or fifteen years old. The girl was dressed in a pink palace dress, and she had a lovely round face, fair skin, large and flexible eyes, a pretty nose, diamond-shaped red lips, and two small dimples on her cheeks, which made her look playful and lovely.

This girl is the sister of King Qin's mother, Murong Xiang, the princess of Anning of the Great Yan Dynasty.

The brothers and sisters of King Qin are all from Concubine Ji Xian, and Ji Hong, the Marquis of Weining, is their uncle, so the relationship is naturally very close. Gu died of illness, and it was reasonable for King Qin and Princess An Ning to come to the Hou Mansion to mourn.

Today's occasion is not suitable for lively greetings, and some of the ladies who are familiar with Princess Qin only nodded their heads.

Xu Jinyu's brother and sister hid in the corner, and there were many people between them and King Qin's party, and they really didn't attract King Qin's attention.

King Qin walked to the coffin and mourned for a moment with a solemn expression. After that, he patted Ji Ze's shoulder again and sighed in a low voice: "Yutang, people can't be resurrected after death, and the festival mourns and changes." ”

Ji Ze replied with a blank expression, looking sad and almost numb. In the eyes of everyone, he is like a loving and righteous man who is heartbroken by the death of his wife.

If Xu Jinyu didn't know his true face, he would inevitably be blinded to the past.

Xu Jinyu raised her eyes and glanced at Ji Ze.

Xu Zheng keenly captured Xu Jinyu's coldness in a flash, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart. Xu Jinyu seemed to be a little repulsed and disliked by Ji Ze. The last time he reminded him to pay attention to Ji Ze, at this moment, it was even more obvious to show disgust.

Ming Ming never had any intersection with Ji Ze when he first came to the capital, where did this disgust come from?

Of course, it is inconvenient to ask at this time. Xu Zheng silently pressed this question, secretly thinking about finding an opportunity to ask Xu Jinyu carefully in the future

On the other side, Princess An Ning was holding Ji Yu's hand and whispered comfort: "Cousin Yu, the deceased is gone, and my cousin-in-law knows about it, and she must not want to see you so sad." ”

Ji Yu tugged at the corners of her lips and squeezed out a bitter smile: "Well, I know the severity and the severity of my body, and I won't break my body." ”

Ji Yu was unwilling to be left out in the cold, so she stepped forward with a cheeky face and said in a brisk tone: "Princess, you haven't been to the Hou Mansion for some days. I've been thinking about you all this time! ”

Princess An Ning was a little cold to Ji Yu: "These days, my mother is sick, and I have been accompanying my mother and rarely going out of the palace." ”

"What is the illness of Concubine Xian? Are you feeling better now? Ji Yu didn't mind Princess Anning's coldness at all, and looked worried.

Reach out and don't hit the smiley man! What's more, Ji Yu is concerned about Concubine Ji Xian's condition again. Although Princess An Ning didn't like to see Ji Yu's cousin, she didn't care about people: "The mother concubine just occasionally felt a cold, and after drinking medicine for a few days, she is much better now." ”

Ji Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that the mother is fine." By the way, it will be Niangniang's birthday in a few days! "Every year, Ji Ze Ji Yu will enter the palace to celebrate Concubine Ji Xian's birthday, and she has long been hot.

Princess An Ning obviously heard the meaning of Ji Yu's words, but she didn't know it, and hummed lightly.

Ji Yu touched a soft nail and sneered

King Qin and his entourage did not stay long, and after condolences, they left quickly.

Xu Jinyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Soon, another mourner came. When Xu Jinyu heard the words Anguo Mansion, her expression moved slightly. A young face sealed in distant memories flashed in his mind

This loss of consciousness immediately attracted Xu Zheng's attention: "Sister, do you know anyone from Anguo Mansion?" ”

Xu Jinyu quickly came back to her senses and replied with a calm expression: "I have only been in the capital for a few days, and I have never been out of the Hou Mansion for half a step, how can I know the people of the Anguo Mansion." However, I had heard Cousin Yu mention the Chen family before, so I lost my mind for a while. ”

Xu Zheng was not suspicious, and said in a low voice: "I also heard my mother talk about it." I heard that the late Wei Ninghou's wife, Chen, was from the Anguo Mansion. ”

The Weining Marquis Mansion is the top noble family of the Great Yan Dynasty, and the Anguo Mansion is not far behind the Weining Marquis Mansion.

The late old Duke An Guo was brave and good at fighting, and made countless military exploits, and the emperor rewarded him with the title of hereditary first-class duke, and gave him the Danshu iron scroll. Soon after the death of the first emperor, the old Duke An Guo also died, and the title was passed to his eldest son Chen Xuan.

It's a pity that the tiger father gave birth to a dog. This Duke of An Guo is far worse than his father. I have read a lot of books on the art of war, but it is not good to really lead troops to the battlefield, which is quite similar to Zhao Kuo, who is famous for thousands of years and is good at talking about soldiers on paper.

Speaking of An Guogong, I have to mention his wife Ye.

The Ye family is a scholarly family, the eldest daughter married the young prince, and after the prince ascended the throne, Queen Ye was rightfully in charge of the six palaces. The Ye family has also become a hot upstart because of this.

The Ye family is the youngest daughter of the Ye family, and her appearance is even more beautiful than Queen Ye. An Guogong gave birth to a handsome face in vain, but it was an embroidered pillow, and he was greedy and lustful. This family business, the Ye family is naturally very reluctant. However, this is the marriage that Lao An Guogong personally invited the emperor to give by decree. No matter how reluctant the Ye family is, they can only marry their talented young daughter to the Anguo Mansion.

After three years of marriage, the Ye family has nothing to do. An Guogong's concubine gave birth to the eldest son. After another two years, Ye gave birth to a son-in-law. A few years later, An Guogong had another daughter.

There are three brothers and sisters in the Anguo public. Chen Heng was better at leading troops than his brother, but his fate was not good, and he contracted a vicious disease when he led the troops to level the bandits, and died before he was thirty years old. Leaving orphans and widows, he now lives in the Anguo Mansion.

An Guogong's sister Chen is also a thin life, after marrying Wei Ninghou, she gave birth to Ji Huan Ji Ze, and gave birth to Ji Yu after a few years. Because of dystocia and injured his vitality, he died when Ji Yu was one year old. A year later, Wei Ninghou remarried Xiao Zou.

Anguo Mansion is the uncle's family of Ji Ze's sisters and brothers, and even though the Chen family has been dead for many years, they are quite close on weekdays.

The nephew and daughter-in-law Gu died of illness, and An Guogong, as an elder, did not come in person. Those of Ji Ze's generation are all here.

As a stepfamily, Xiao Zou's relationship with the original Chen family's family is naturally delicate, but he has to greet the Chen family with a strong spirit.

Xu Zheng looked at the Chen family brothers and sisters, and couldn't help but praise in a low voice: "I originally thought that our two brothers and sisters were good-looking, but when I arrived in the Hou Mansion, I felt that the people of the Ji family were all outstanding. Now look at the Chen family brothers and sisters, and only then do you know what it means to be a dragon and a phoenix among people. The eldest should be Chen Yuanbai, the eldest son of the Chen family, who was born gentle and elegant like Pan An. The young boy was about my age at most, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. And that girl, who should not be much older than you, is also bright and moving."

After talking for a long time, Xu Jinyu didn't respond at all.

Xu Zheng was secretly strange, and couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Xu Jinyu.

Xu Jinyu looked at the handsome young man steadily, a faint mist seemed to float in his eyes, and his expression seemed to be happy and sad
