The house was full of friends, and there were many visitors, and the Huaiwang Mansion had not been so lively for a long time.

Ah Jiu's entry into the door naturally attracted the attention of most people, everyone in the capital knows that Ah Jiu is not close to Princess Mo Xinlan, and there are not many close relationships between concubines and stepdaughters, there will always be contradictions, but they will pretend to be harmonious and close to each other in front of people.

These two ...... Especially Ah Jiu didn't even bother to pretend.

Ah Jiu, who should have been blamed, was loved by the government and the opposition.

Even in the Huaiwang Mansion, Ah Jiu is also an extremely transcendent existence.

Mo Guanjie and Jiang Shoufu love her like a jewel, and the married husband Lu Tianyang is dedicated and infatuated, and his status is high, coupled with the importance of Emperor Shenwu, even if the eldest princess has a lot of complaints about Ah Jiu, it will not affect Ah Jiu's popular Cheng Dù.

Since Mo Guanjie's identity has become a well-known secret, everyone can understand that the eldest princess's whispers to Ah Jiu are just the helplessness of the elders to the stubborn juniors.

"Mrs. Yuhou."

Mo Xinlan originally wanted to call Sister Jiu, but it can be seen that the guests greeted Ah Jiu and said distantly: "I didn't expect you to go to Huaiwang's Mansion." ”

Ah Jiu smiled faintly, "I thought there would not be too many guests coming to Huai Wang's Mansion, but I was afraid that Princess Huai would not come over in person, so I just came, it seems that I was too worried, and Huai Wangfu is rarely so lively." ”

As if she hadn't noticed Mo Xinlan's annoyance, she looked around, "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess hasn't arrived?" ”

"Ninth sister." Mo Xinqing took the initiative to smile and said, "It's almost over, Your Highness asked me to take the first step." ”

"I forgot, you are very close to Your Highness and the county lord." Ah Jiu asked with a smile: "You really need some sustenance after leaving, and you are still living in the Chengguo Mansion recently." ”

in the house. The wives were much quieter, and their eyes at Mo Xinqing were full of disdain, although Mo Xinqing and the matter of separation were suppressed by the eldest princess. But most people look down on Mo Xinqing.

Although Mo Xinqing made a decision, most of them would be done in her position, after all, there were very few people who gave up a qiē to go to the countryside to live in seclusion, but no one wanted to be a person who only recognized wealth and nobility.

"Recently, I have accompanied Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and I haven't been to the Chengguo Mansion for several days."

Mo Xinqing's face did not change, even if he hated Ah Jiu to death in his heart, he did not show anything on his face. There was no embarrassment or shame, "I heard that since Marquis Yu left Beijing, the ninth sister has not returned to the Gongfu again?" That's not good. After all, Marquis Yu is the biological son of Grandpa Guo, and even if Marquis Yu is grateful to His Royal Highness King Qi, he is also surnamed Lu. ”

Turning to Mo Xinlan, Mo Xinqing asked with a smile, "I just heard the second sister talk about it." The Empress Niangniang and Her Majesty plan to choose the children of the clan to succeed to His Royal Highness King Qi. ”

Mo Xinlan knew that Mo Xinqing deliberately embarrassed Ah Jiu. It proves that Lu Tianyang and Ah Jiu are also people who love wealth and nobility, so they ignore their biological father and turn to the more powerful and favored prince of Qi - King Qi.

"I ...... I heard a few words from the queen. ”

The hatred and jealousy of Ah Jiu made Mo Xinlan stand on Mo Xinqing's side without hesitation.

"Really?" Ah Jiu blinked excitedly, "The queen mother really said that?" ”

Mo Xinlan paused for a while, "His Royal Highness King Qi can't be named Marquis Yu as the prince, so he naturally has to succeed the royal family." You still persuade Yu Hou more. Being proactive can also save a little face. ”

After Mo Xinqing provoked the incident, she sat quietly and drank tea. With a smile in his eyes, he watched Ah Jiu and Mo Xinlan fight each other.

"Niangniang is really a saint, I decided on the candidate early, Hou Ye and I can also be more at ease with the father-in-law, the father-in-law is temperamental, often in trouble, and many people in the world are set up early to take care of the filial father, this is the best news I have heard today."

Ah Jiu looked at Mo Xinlan gratefully: "I heard that Princess Huai often enters the palace and often accompanies Queen Zai's mother, the news must be accurate, I have to tell the news to the Marquis as soon as possible." ”

Mo Xinlan's face tightened, the queen had never told her about the prince of Liqi, and after Ah Jiuyi's publicity, it was already foreseeable that the queen would punish herself heavily.

The people around him are obviously very concerned about the matter of King Qi's son, as long as King Qi is willing to succeed the children of the royal family as his heir, he will inevitably join the ranks of competing for the throne.

With the strength of King Qi, he is definitely the great enemy of the crown prince and others.

As the biological mother of the crown prince, why can't the queen mother think so much about opening up and giving the king of Qi a step-heir?

Could it be that the prince who is still kneeling in the Taimiao is not honest and wants to suppress or win over the king of Qi?

It is said that the crown prince planned to pass on his youngest son, who had just turned three, to the king of Qi...... Now the slightest rumor in the court will trigger all kinds of speculation.

Obviously, Princess Huai Mo Xinlan once again caused huge trouble for the crown prince and queen.

Emperor Shenwu has repeatedly said that the queen is not allowed to interfere in politics.

Mo Xinqing lost the mood of watching the play leisurely at this time, she never expected Ah Jiu's counterattack to be so fierce, and the Lu family obviously didn't want to see the prince completely lose power.

At this moment, the eldest princess and the county lord of Zhaohua arrived, and Mo Xinqing breathed a sigh of relief, "Second sister, let's go to greet Your Highness." ”

"Ninth sister not going?"

"I am also a guest invited by Princess Huai, I'm afraid it is not suitable to accompany Princess Huai to welcome the eldest princess, not to mention that His Royal Highness is not happy to see me, I better be less in front of His Highness."

Ah Jiu stopped Mo Xinqing, "I don't know if you have made a good choice?" ”

"I don't bother you with my business." Mo Xinqing glanced back at Ah Jiu, "I won't lose to you." ”

"A person can make many mistakes in his life, but some mistakes can only be wrong once, you have made a wrong choice once, are you sure that your choice is right this time?"

"Are you scared? The ninth sister will also be afraid? ”

Mo Xinqing had a wry smile on her lips, choose? Does she still have a choice? Even if she wants to get away now, the master will not let her go.

"Are you too self-conscious, or are you underestimating me?" Ah Jiu's eyes gradually became calm and cold, "Do you think I will be afraid of a concubine?" ”

Disgrace...... Mo Xinqing closed her eyes, she wrote down this shame by herself, and waited to see who would have the last laugh in the future.

The two of them didn't speak loudly, and although others were paying attention, they couldn't hear clearly.

I just saw that Mo Xinqing's complexion was not very good.

When Mo Xinqing walked to the door, the eldest princess walked in accompanied by Mo Xinlan. Mo Xinqing seemed to see a relative, her eyes were slightly red, and her posture was gracefully bent to her knees. "I've seen Your Highness."

The eldest princess held Mo Xinqing, "It's a mistake." ”

"Grandmother." Mo Xinqing called softly.

The voice is soft, but it can leave enough shock, although I have long heard that Mo Xinqing has changed her mouth to call the eldest princess grandmother, hearing is false, seeing is believing, and the guests in the house secretly remember it. There was a little less ridicule of Mo Xinqing.

I don't dare whether Mo Xinqing will abandon her husband, just because she has the eldest princess to admit this, they have to be cautious.

"Ah Jiu. Are you bullying Qing'er again? ”

The eldest princess accurately found the source, and shook her head helplessly: "You girl." ”

The helplessness of pampering is beyond words.

The annoying and hateful Ah Jiu made the eldest princess love and hate every time they met, because Lu Tianyang was not by Ah Jiu's side, and the eldest princess looked at Ah Jiu a lot. It's a pity...... She also understands that good times don't last long. Lu Tianyang should return to Beijing soon.

Just got the news, he defeated the well-prepared Haikou and chased Mo Guanjie's remnants of the restoration of the country.

After reading the battle report, the eldest princess became more vigilant about Lu Tianyang, and at the same time had to admit that his talent for commanding troops was very high, and Lu Tianyang's invincible record in the border battle was not blown by the King of Qi.

In the same situation, no one can do better than Lu Tianyang, even if the eldest princess goes in person, it is not as good as Lu Tianyang.

"Good news for you. Your father returned to Beijing three days later. ”

"What about Yu Hou?" Ah Jiu asked happily.

He ...... Naturally, he returned to Beijing with the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. ”

The eldest princess's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity, originally Emperor Shenwu wanted Lu Tianyang to continue to lead the troops to level Jiangnan. Who knew that Lu Tianyang actually wrote a book and excused himself from the errand of increasing his strength.

Jiangnan is the important place of the empire, and leading troops to guard Jiangnan is a fat difference that others can't ask for.

Lu Tianyang folded the sentence that moved Emperor Shenwu the most - 'The rabble, there is no need for ministers to clear it.' ’

Extreme self-confidence and pride.

Emperor Shenwu deliberately showed the excerpt to the eldest princess, and until this time, the eldest princess seemed to be able to hear Emperor Shenwu's hearty laughter and the low mutter:

'Don't you think the royal sister thinks he looks like a person?' Your eyes see nothing but hatred and jealousy...... Could it be that I am the only one who remembers? He shouldn't be Lu Jiang's son, he shouldn't. ’

"Mother." The county lord of Zhaohua called softly.

The eldest princess shook her head slightly, "I just thought of the words of the imperial brother, and I was a little distracted for a while. ”

After getting the news that Lu Tianyang and his parents returned to Beijing safely, Ah Jiu was very happy, and he was also a little enthusiastic about the eldest princess, how Mo Xinqing chose it could not affect Ah Jiu's good mood, "Thank you for the news that the eldest princess told the Hou Ye." ”

"The good news has arrived in the capital, even if I don't say it, you will know in a while." The eldest princess said softly: "He fought this battle very well, and he protected Guanjie well. Lu Tianyang...... It's a military wizard. ”

"It's not that he had an accident during the imperial examination, he should be the champion of the upper department."

"You're welcome."

"He's already outstanding, so naturally I can't praise him enough."

Ah Jiu's face was full of joy and pride in her husband, and she became more and more bright and moving, and her eyes were wrinkled and shining, as bright as stars.

Zhou's body was filled with joy and happiness, which attracted the envy of others to Ah Jiu.

"I think it's my mother who is too uplifting to Lu Tian." The county lord of Zhaohua said contemptuously beside him, "It's just a little credit, another person may do better than him, Ah Jiu said that he has the talent of the champion, but it was not he who was named the champion in the end." ”

The more dazzling Lu Tianyang is, the more pitiful Lu Lingfeng is.

How could the county lord of Zhaohua endure the pride of Lu Tianyang who harmed his son?

If it wasn't for Mo Xinqing's secret recipe, Lu Lingfeng was abolished by Lu Tianyang, the eldest princess Xu was because Ah Jiu admired Lu Tianyang, and she only had hatred for Lu Tianyang, an unforgettable hatred.

Don't even bother to do the gesture.

Zhaohua County sued everyone that he was inseparable from his concubine Lu Tianyang, and even if Lu Tianyang married Ah Jiu, she would not be able to change.

The eldest princess nodded against her will under the pleading gaze of the county lord of Zhaohua: "What you said is not unreasonable, after all, the empire has many talents, and the status of Marquis Yu Lu Tianyang is lower after all, and his maternal ancestor was ordered to execute the extermination of the clan, so he may not resent His Majesty." ”

Her words immediately made Lu Tianyang's achievements in fighting back greatly discounted, and it was even stricter that Lu Tianyang's loyalty to Emperor Shenwu would be criticized by many people.

It's not that no one has guessed the identity of Lu Tian's mother, the county lord of Zhaohua and the Lu family kept it a secret, just thought that Lu Jiang was drunk and luckily a maid, no one expected that Lu Tian's mother was actually a nobleman of Eastern Liao, and most of the people who were ordered by Emperor Shenwu to exterminate the clan were former nobles.

"The Eldest Princess......"

"I heard that the back garden of King Huai's Mansion is good, Princess Huai and Qing'er accompany me around."

The eldest princess didn't give Ah Jiu a chance to speak at all, and tightly dragged Sister Mo Xinlan towards the back garden.

Ah Jiu pursed his lips, and looked at the county lord of Zhaohua who stayed, his eyes were fighting, no one refused to admit defeat, the county lord of Zhaohua was cold and arrogant, Ah Jiu was calm and calm, and their firefight made the women in the house at a loss, and quietly stayed away from them.

After a long time, a smile slowly pulled out of Ah Jiu's lips, "The county lord thinks I will catch up and discuss the loyalty of the Hou Ye with Her Royal Highness the eldest princess?" ”

The county lord of Zhaohua happened to block the door: "Mother left because I didn't want to listen to you unreasonably stir up three points, Lu Tian's mother used to be the crown princess of the prince of Dongliao...... When she begged me, you didn't see it, it's not an ordinary slut! What kind of people raise what kind of sons. Lu Tianyang is like a slut who abandoned Lu Yun, he is disloyal and unjust, not only His Majesty is the enemy who defends him, Ah Jiu, you have to be careful yourself. ”

"Lord Zhaohua has raised a good son, not only his dirty illness has been cured?"

Ah Jiuda's meaningful eyes looked the county lord of Zhaohua up and down, and suddenly laughed, "Learn from whom, this is quite reasonable, thank you for reminding the county lord of Zhaohua." ”

“…… You! Lord Zhaohua was surprised and angry, "What a bold son." ”

No matter how much the quarrel was, Ah Jiu always saved face for the eldest princess and the county lord of Zhaohua, but he didn't expect it to be ...... today Ah Jiu completely tore his face and completely treated the county lord of Zhaohua as an enemy.

"Hou Ye is different from the prince of Chengguo, Lu Shizi has a problem, mediocre talent, lack of talent, from birth to the present, has he contributed to the empire? Guarding the border for His Majesty? Can you make the barbarians jealous and submit like Hou Ye? The county lord couldn't find fault with the Hou Ye, and he couldn't grasp the handle, so he could only do his best to ridicule the Hou Ye's biological mother in the life of the Hou Ye and belittle the Hou Ye. ”

Ah Jiu's eyes were piled up with cold ice, and the county lord of Zhaohua had a pale face and a chill on his back.

"There is a mother who is betrayed and deceived by his lover for love, he abides by etiquette, self-denial, respects teachers, is loyal to the empire, filial piety to his father, cherishes and respects his wife, just because he can't catch up with Lu Shizi's background, but he has a status and achievements that are difficult for the county lord's son and son to achieve, and has a noble character and personality charm than Lu Lingfeng, Hou Ye is even more valuable."

The county lord of Zhaohua's face was as pale as paper, and he raised his arm to fan Ah Jiu, "It's time to fight." ”

Bang, Ah Jiu grabbed the wrist of the county lord of Zhaohua and said coldly: "County lord, don't let blind hatred and jealousy completely occupy your whole person, the advantages in you are becoming less and less because of the unbalanced mentality." When you despise Lord Hou's biological mother, the most painful person is not me, nor Lord Hou, but the spirit of Lord Mu in the sky. ”

“…… You talk nonsense, my father ......"

Ah Jiu approached the county lord of Zhaohua, sneered and whispered: "Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu, once degraded his wife to a concubine and married Guo. Who is a concubine and who is a wife, if the county lord wants the truth to come to light, I am willing to fulfill it. (To be continued......)
