------Off topic------

"Call him over and you two have done it! If Li Boy can win against you, you will know that Lao Er is not a fame and reputation. The Marquis of Zhongyong snorted and urged the guards who were shouted out by him, "Go and shout!" No matter what that kid is doing, drag him to the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion for me. ”

"What do you call him for?" Qin Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"Stinky boy! You are still a yellow-haired child with no hair, and you dare to despise your ancestors! Marquis Zhongyong looked at Qin Zheng's appearance and was completely angry, "Today's right minister has not obtained the true biography of that old man, I heard that his grandson has obtained his true biography, and his chess skills are superb." When the words fell, he shouted, "Come on, go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and call me that kid Li Muqing!" ”

Qin Zheng raised his eyebrows, looking like he didn't believe that the old right minister was good at chess.

"Nonsense!" Zhongyong Hou slapped the table with his big hand, the table made a buzzing sound, he blew his beard and glared, "Although my chess skills are not good. But the chess skills of the old man who has been made in ancient times are really exquisite. At that time, the Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, who dared to win the right minister? Except for the emperor, that is, me. The first emperor had superb chess skills, but I, the chess went to the front, coupled with the use of the art of war, sometimes sophistry and cunning. Although he can't get down to that old man, he can scare him a few times. Besides, he asked me to play chess, not to play chess, but to win me on purpose, and then, to provoke me, the two of us had a big fight. Moving his muscles and bones is his purpose. ”

Qin Zheng shrugged, "Your chess game is really not very good. I doubt it, the old right minister of the year said that his chess skills were superb, ordinary people couldn't make three moves in his hands, and you could play a draw with him. Now that I look at stinky chess like you, I guess that old right minister's chess skills are not very good! The reputation of chess is pure and shattered. ”

"Stinky boy!" Marquis Zhongyong waved his hand and pushed the chessboard, his beard curled, and scolded, "In the end, it's still a bit of eyesight!" My old man has eaten more salt than you have walked for so many years. As soon as I put on the chess game, I knew how deep your water was. I'm going to see how long you can put up with it to beat me. In the end, you endured it for a long time, and you are still interested! ”

Qin Zheng leaned back in the chair, knowing that she was awake, he turned his head to look at her, and said lazily, "If this old man on the other side was not grandpa, I would have dared to win him a long time ago!" A game of chess accompanied him until noon, and he dared to win him. ”

Xie Fanghua opened her eyes, and the painting and ink were by her side, and the game of chess between Marquis Zhongyong and Qin Zheng had come to an end. She glanced at it and said dissatisfiedly to Qin Zheng, "Don't you know how to respect the old and love the young?" How dare you win! ”

slept for about two hours, and when it was noon, Aunt Fu came to Haitang Pavilion to shout lunch, which alarmed Xie Fanghua.

Half a day passed in a flash, and no one came to disturb the Begonia Pavilion.

The sound of Zhongyong Hou and Qin Zheng playing chess couldn't help but be soft.

Xie Fanghua breathed evenly and slept soundly. Beside her is her grandfather and Qin Zheng, it seems that her heart is extraordinarily steady, in the past, she could wake up with a little movement, but now there is no movement at all.

After a while, he took a cloak and gently put it on Xie Fanghua's body.

The waiter and the waiter took a step back, nodded in unison, and walked out of the Begonia Pavilion.

"She's asleep, if it's not a big deal, wait until she wakes up!" Qin Zheng deliberately lowered his voice and instructed the two, "Go and get her a cloak to put on, so as not to get wind." ”

The two of them walked lightly and came to Xie Fanghua's side, not knowing if they should wake her up and tell her about the matter.

An hour later, the painter and the ink returned to the Begonia Pavilion, and saw that the Marquis of Zhongyong and Qin Zheng were still playing chess, and it was still that game of chess. The two did not tell whether they won or lost. And Xie Fanghua seemed to fall asleep on the table next to the fire.

What the hell is ...... Habit is a terrible thing......

Xie Fanghua couldn't get used to his arrogant appearance, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and carefully recalled it in his mind for a moment, frowned, raised his hand and rubbed it vigorously. There was a moment of silence, and then he exhaled softly.

Qin Zheng laughed, tilted his head, raised his eyebrows at Xie Fanghua proudly, turned his head and continued to play chess.

"Your daughter-in-law, naturally, is towards you! What stinks and beautiful? Play chess! The Marquis of Zhongyong reprimanded him, and it was natural to listen to those words.

Qin Zheng chuckled, didn't take Xie Fanghua's words, raised his head and asked Marquis Zhongyong, "Grandpa, who do you say, Hua'er is facing whom?" ”

Xie Fanghua sneered, "So it means that my heart is towards you?" Don't be too arrogant. ”

Qin Zheng took the wine jug and filled it with wine for Zhongyong Hou, and then filled it for himself, and after a while, he put the wine jug on his side, not planning to return it to Xie Fanghua. smiled meaningfully at him, "I heard you just say that Qin Tian and Qin Yu are close, and Qin Yu and I are not right. Let the Xie family consider this marriage. When the words fell, he sighed, "Hua'er, doesn't this mean that your heart is for me?" ”

Xie Fanghua sneered, "Is this worth your pleasure?" ”

Qin Zheng took advantage of the gap between her looking at the chessboard, reached out and took the wine jug, and smiled slowly, "Shouldn't I be happy that you ruined the marriage between Qin Tian and Xie Xi's sixth room in just a few words?" ”

A hand suddenly stretched out next to her to stop her, she looked up, Qin Zheng looked at him with a strange expression on his handsome face, a slight smug smile on the corner of her mouth, she was a little inexplicable, and asked, "What are you happy about?" Won grandpa? As the words fell, he glanced at the chessboard, and did not see the momentum of his victory.

Xie Fanghua sat quietly, quietly tasting the wine, and after a while, when a glass of wine was drunk, she picked up the wine jug and poured it into the cup.

After a short time, the waiter painting and the waiter Mo helped Xie Yi out of the door, and only Zhongyonghou, Qin Zheng, and Xie Fanghua were left in the pavilion.

The two left the Begonia Pavilion with a drunken Shay.

Xie Fanghua waved his hand.

"Yes!" The painter and the ink firmly remembered Xie Fanghua's words.

Xie Fanghua added, "You also heard what I just said to her, right? Just repeat it truthfully to Aunt Liu. When the words fell, she said without the slightest emotion, "Although the sixth prince may not participate in the battle for the throne in the future, he has a deep relationship with the fourth prince. This is a well-known thing. And what about the four princes......" She tilted her head slightly, glanced at Qin Zheng, who was fighting more fiercely with an old man and a young man, and said lightly, "The four princes and Qin Zheng have never been right. If Xie Xi really likes Qin Tian, he can give this marriage a try. But let the sixth aunt think carefully by herself, if it is in the future...... The consequences may not be something that the Xie family can bear. After all, Xie Liufang has always worn a pair of pants with Zhongyong Hou, but now the situation is unclear, there are too many means behind it, and if there is a slight mistake, then you will lose all the games. ”

Before the two of them could get closer, Shay's head was tilted on the table. The two of them thought that Miss was really good at reading faces, and Miss Yi was even better than Qin Lian's county lord. One left and one right helped her up.

"Yes, Miss!" The waiter and the waiter stepped forward together.

Xie Fanghua put down the cup, smiled, and instructed behind him, "You two send Miss Yi back to the sixth room of the Xie family." ”

"What then?" Shay asked with a crying brow on his forehead.

"This is drunk, you're going to get drunk!" Xie Fanghua nodded.

Shay unconsciously drank a glass of wine, her heart was a little depressed, after a while, she felt that her mind was starting to dizzy, and her eyes were a little hazy, she shook her head vigorously, she still couldn't wake up, she suddenly cried and said with a sad face, "Sister Fanghua, I seem to be really getting drunk, look at how you look like two people!" ”

Xie Fanghua raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this. Suddenly knowing the whole story, it was no wonder that the old lady in the sixth room and Mrs. Ming were in a dilemma, it turned out that Xie Xi had moved his mind about Qin Tian in the correspondence.

Shay's face fell, and he said in a low voice, "I don't know what the Eighth Prince thinks of my sister, but my sister has been thinking about the Eighth Prince because she has helped my grandmother ghostwrite letters to Concubine Lin all these years. If this doesn't work out, my sister may be sad. ”

Xie Fanghua didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

Shay looked at Xie Fanghua's cool smile dangling under the veil, and something warm in his heart seemed to be frozen. She was a little understanding, but also a little puzzled, and muttered, "Sister Fanghua, are you saying that with the marriage between you and your brother-in-law, this is already a variable for the emperor against the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, is it impossible for a second variable to be entangled with the royal family?" So, my sister's marriage to the Eighth Prince must not be allowed? ”

"Concubine Lin has never been involved in court affairs, and most of the things she said to the emperor are harmless. Now that the marriage between your sister and Qin Tian is related to the situation of the dynasty, there are lessons from the Marquis of Zhongyong Mansion and Prince Ying's Mansion in the past, how can there be a teacher of the Xie family's six rooms and the eighth prince's chariot? In this case, do we Xie really want to ride on the head of the royal family? The corners of Xie Fanghua's mouth pulled out a sneer, her smile fluttered, her smile was invisible, she said calmly and coolly, "You just need to go back and pass on what I said to the sixth aunt and grandmother and the sixth aunt." Well, they'll know how! ”

Xie Yi was puzzled, "The emperor respects Concubine Lin very much, and whenever the concubine says a word, the emperor will listen carefully." Back then, the emperor was fostered in the concubine's house for a period of time. ”

"I'm more than two years older than you!" Xie Fanghua put down the cup and said to her, "You go back and tell Aunt Sù and Aunt Six." Regarding the marriage between Xie Xi and Qin Tian, even if Concubine Lin begged, the emperor probably would not agree. ”

Shay pursed the corners of her mouth, "You're only two years older than me, as if you were talking about how old you are." ”

Xie Fanghua filled a glass of wine by herself, put it to her lips, and slowly tasted it, her lips and teeth were full of warm begonia fragrance, and she smiled quietly, "It's not that I'm too smart, but you're still too young." ”

Shay was stunned for a while, grunted, and said, "Sister Fanghua, you are too smart, guess it?" ”

Xie Fanghua looked at her with a faint smile. The little girl is smart and clever, and she has a lot of thoughts, she has been taught very well by Mrs. Ming, and she has a lot of knowledge of the world, but in the end she is still young, these thoughts still can't be hidden in front of her.

Shay was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes showed a hint of surprise.

Xie Fanghua looked at her and saw that her delicate face had been dyed with red glow, although this wine was not strong, but it was full of stamina. If this glass of wine is eaten again, then she should not be able to stand drunk in less than a cup of tea. She glanced at the sky, the sun had risen, it was still early, the Begonia Pavilion had faded away from the coolness of the early morning, and a trace of warmth melted in, she pursed her lips and said softly, "Sister Yi, the reason why the sixth aunt and grandmother and the sixth aunt are relieved to let you come over by yourself today is actually to let you sue me about this matter, and then, through me, find out what kind of attitude grandpa and brother have towards the marriage of your sister Xie Xi and the eighth prince Qin Tian, right?" ”

Shay nodded, taking a small sip obediently.

"Drink slowly!" Xie Fanghua reminded her, "That's it!" Although grandpa let go, he just gave you an extra drink. ”

The painter and the ink filled her with a cup again.

The waiter and the waiter filled Shay with a glass of wine, and Shay picked it up, first sniffed it, and then couldn't wait to drink it all. Si Ha, then smashed his mouth, and said, "It's delicious!" Quick, full again! ”

Xie Fanghua was helpless, and nodded at the painting and ink.

Marquis Zhongyong said "um", which was regarded as a thank you for her.

Shay was trembling at first, and then he was immediately happy when he heard the words, turned his head, and said crisply, "Thank you, grandpa!" ”

"Just give this girl two cups! It's not wrong to love wine! Marquis Zhongyong couldn't look at it, and spoke, "Your sixth aunt came to you and said that I let you drink!" ”

"Please, Sister Fanghua!" Shay begged with a shake of her arm.

"No way!" Xie Fanghua shook his head.

"I don't believe it!" Shay shook her head, and her youngest daughter begged her, "Two glasses? Is two cups good? I promise not to get drunk. If I'm drunk this time, you can ignore me next time. ”

Xie Fanghua smiled, "There will be some!" ”

Shay chuckled, "Sister Fanghua, are you still going to meet?" ”

"Three glasses and I'll be drunk unconscious." Xie Fanghua saw Shay, "Although you are not her, but when I look at you, you should be invincible, on par with her, I don't want your mouth to fall here, and the sixth aunt came to me to make trouble." ”

"Miss Hui, the merciful county lord drank three cups!" The waiter said.

Xie Fanghua said slowly, "A few days ago, the county lord came, and it happened to catch me to warm wine and cook begonias. After the words fell, she turned back to the waiter and asked, "How many drinks did she have at that time?" ”

"I said I could drink three glasses!" Shay looked at Xie Fanghua dissatisfied.

"Pour her a drink!" Xie Fanghua instructed the waiter to paint and wait, and then said to Shay, "I can give you a drink!" ”

Shay held out three fingers and smiled greedily, "I can drink three glasses!" ”

"How much do you drink?" Xie Fanghua turned her head and asked.

Xie Yi sighed, grabbed Xie Fanghua's arm and shook it, "Sister Fanghua, I want to have a drink too." ”

The two of them immediately responded, one took the wine jug, the other set the glass, and after a while, they poured a glass of wine for Zhongyong Hou and Qin Zheng. The aroma of wine spreads out in an instant, and the entire Begonia Pavilion is diffused with a strong aroma of wine.

"Pour a glass for each of them!" Xie Fanghua instructed the painting and ink behind him.

Qin Zheng did not refute either, and happily accepted the scolding of the Marquis of Zhongyong.

"Stinky boy!" The Marquis of Zhongyong was not used to his pride, and scolded him.

Qin Zheng turned his head and glanced at the wine jug on the stove, then turned to Xie Fanghua and smiled slowly, "Hua'er warm wine boiled begonias are really fragrant!" In the rest of my life, I will be blessed! ”

"It smells so good!" The Marquis of Zhongyong shouted.

"If you were so stupid, you wouldn't be able to say that! Your mouth hasn't stopped since you came here. Xie Fanghua smelled the aroma of wine and begonias becoming more and more intense, and there were gurgling bubbles in the wine jug, she reached out and opened the lid of the jug, and a stronger fragrance came to her nose.

Shay pouted, "Sister Fanghua, my mother has always said that I am a stupid girl, afraid that I will do something wrong, and she will look at me every day." How did I get an adult when I came to you? ”

Xie Fanghua stretched out his hand and flicked Shay's head, "Sure enough, it's a human spirit!" ”

Xie Yi was stunned, grinned, hugged Xie Fanghua's arm and said, "Isn't this the old marquis?" I was a little scared of the old marquis, and I didn't dare to mess around in front of his old man. I'm afraid that the old marquis will hear about me! ”

Xie Fanghua looked at her, "Didn't you just come and shout solemnly for the second son?" Why did he become a brother-in-law after such a while? ”

"Hey, before, my grandmother and my mother really didn't have the heart to marry the royal family. Avoid it! In general, the Xie family's sixth room is also close to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, once something happens to the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, the Xie family's sixth room cannot stand by and inevitably get involved. The old marquis and my grandfather are brothers, and this bone and blood are closer than ordinary side branches. My grandmother taught my father this way when I was a child, and although my father was unable to enter the government because of his infirmity, he taught me this rule when I was a child. At all times, you must not forget that you are the daughter of the Xie family. Xie Yi sighed, glanced at Qin Zheng secretly, and then approached Xie Fanghua and said, "Since Chinese New Year's Eve, my brother-in-law forced you to marry in Lingque Terrace, and the emperor had no choice but to make a holy decree, since then, the Marquis of Zhongyong Mansion and Prince Ying's Mansion have married, such a matter is a barrier for the royal family." made the emperor have to think twice about Xie's actions. My grandmother and mother were a little relaxed about my sister's promise to marry the Eighth Prince. ”

Xie Fanghua smiled and shook his head, "I'm not an immortal, just pinch your fingers and count." How do I know if it's going to happen? ”

"Sister Fanghua, do you think my sister and the Eighth Prince can do this?" Shay asked quietly.

Xie Fanghua nodded.

Shay added, "Since Concubine Lin and her grandmother were able to communicate with each other, Concubine Lin's letters were all ghostwritten by the Eighth Emperor, and her grandmother's letters were ghostwritten by her sister. In addition, the eighth prince was nurtured by Concubine Lin, and he was probably also a Buddha. Therefore, Concubine Lin and her grandmother revealed some meaning in the letter, and my grandmother summed it up and found my mother. ”

Xie Fanghua smiled.

"Over the years, people outside have said that the Xie family has two daughters, one is Miss Fanghua of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion, and the other is Miss Xie Xi of the sixth room. One is sick in bed for many years, and the other is not sick or sick and likes to worship the Buddha. You two won't even set foot out of the house when the sky falls. Shay muttered.

Xie Fanghua understood.

"In the courtyard where we live in the sixth room now, a Buddhist hall has indeed been built, just behind my grandmother's courtyard. After my grandmother gave birth to my sister, my mother had no time to take care of my sister because she had to support the middle feed and take care of the farm facade outside. My grandmother was fine, so my sister was raised by my grandmother's side. After so many years, my grandmother has raised my sister to be a standard boudoir lady who does not leave the door. It's very quiet. In the past, after you were sick for all these years, I could drag her out of the house twice a month after I was able to be taken out of the house by my mother, but now, I don't come out of the house. Shay said sullenly, "I don't like Buddha, and I didn't grow up with my grandmother, although my grandmother also likes me, but she doesn't like my sister much." Now that my grandmother is older, my sister has an excuse. said that he wanted to accompany his grandmother, and his grandmother couldn't be left unattended. Simply, the two of them eat fasting and chanting Buddha in the house all day long. Naturally, you won't be able to see her. ”

Xie Fanghua smiled.

Shay sighed when he heard this, "I see! She scratched her head, "I don't know any of this as you do." ”

Xie Fanghua said with a smile, "The sixth aunt and grandmother are based on their mother's family since childhood, and they like to worship the Buddha and read Buddhist scriptures. Therefore, the two have topics of common interest, and they have gotten close to many boudoir ladies of the older generation, and they have been confidants for so many years. After the words fell, she added, "Back then, the sixth aunt and grandmother had to move out of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion to set up another door, also because she liked to worship the Buddha, and she was too old to copy the Buddhist scriptures by hand to meditate." I want to build a Buddhist temple. But my grandfather didn't like Buddha, and my sixth aunt and grandmother thought about it again and again, so they made it clear to their grandfather, so they moved out. Otherwise, my grandfather wouldn't have let them move out. ”

"Huh? You know? Shay looked at her strangely.

Xie Fanghua smiled, "I know!" ”

Shay suddenly smiled, "Sister Fanghua, it turns out that you are also curious about my sister!" My sister is a dull and quiet person. I don't like to participate in this, so I am dedicated to being by my grandmother's side. After the words fell, she glanced at Zhongyong Marquis again, leaned closer to Xie Fanghua's ear and said, "My grandmother likes to read Buddhist scriptures, don't you know yet?" ”

"I never saw your sister when I wasn't sick. Now that my condition is getting better, I have never seen your sister come out and show up. She did not enter the palace banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve, and she did not come out to participate in the dinner party of the Marquis Zhongyong's mansion. Does she stay in the house all day? What are you doing? Xie Fanghua looked at Shay and asked.

Shay said worriedly, "Concubine Lin has taken a fancy to my sister and intends to tell the Eighth Prince." If the Xie family's six rooms are counted from our generation, although they are a side branch of the Xie family, if they are counted from the generation of the old marquis, they are also the descendants of the Xie family. Although the sixth room did not support the father and brother of the court, it was precisely because of this that it was more reassuring. The eighth prince grew up beside Concubine Lin since he was a child, and his marriage, as long as Concubine Lin values it and goes to the emperor to talk about it, nine times out of ten it will be done. Now it's just my grandmother and my mother hesitating. ”

"Now the emperor is still in the prime of life, although they are still children, but in a few years, when the emperor is older, the children will grow up. Some things are uncertain. Xie Fanghua said.

"Well, the Eighth Prince is three months younger than my sister, and Sister Fanghua, you are half a year older than my sister." Shay said, "My mother thinks that the eighth prince is too young, and besides, she doesn't want to marry the heirs of the royal family. Now that the Eighth Prince has no intention of taking sides. But if it is a real change of thrones, who can guarantee that the descendants of the royal family will not interfere in the imperial power? In the royal family, a man who is now an adult. There are only three princes, four princes, five princes, and eight princes. The other eleventh and twelfth princes were only ten and seven years old, and they could only be regarded as children. ”

Xie Fanghua pondered for a moment and asked, "Qin Tian is younger than your sister, right?" I remember that Xie Xi was the same age as me, and was limited younger than me. ”

"Hmm!" Shay nodded.

Xie Fanghua raised his head, and was surprised for a moment, but he suppressed it for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "Qin Tian?" ”

Shay lowered his head, "Mine is still undecided, my sister's eyebrows are up." After the words fell, she quietly glanced at Zhongyong Hou and Qin Zheng, and saw that the two of them didn't pay attention to this, they should not have the heart to listen to their little children, so she was relieved and said in a low voice, "Concubine Lin and my grandmother have discussed and intends to marry my sister to the Eighth Prince. My grandmother was thinking about it, and my mother was still hesitating and didn't nod! ”

Xie Fanghua looked at her, sighed secretly, and asked in a low voice, "Which one did Aunt Sixth choose for you?" What about your sister's gratitude? Which one did she choose? ”

"Sister Fanghua, why don't you speak? What do you do watching me like this? Am I saying something wrong? Or did I say something that shouldn't have been said? Shay nervously grabbed Xie Fanghua's hand and shook it, "Yesterday, my mother scared me enough, I don't know the bottom of my heart, I was going to come to play with you today, so I couldn't help but tell you." ”

Xie Fanghua looked at her through the veil, the girl's face was cautious, innocent, and also blank and afraid of the future. Even if there are no men who can support the façade in the sixth room of the Xie family, the women in the sixth room of the Xie family are all shrewd and capable. From the old lady in the sixth room, to her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Erming, the family business of the Xie family's sixth room is in good order, and the Xie family's sixth room is supported by the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion. Since Shay was born, he has enjoyed wealth, which is all given by the family. If the Xie family collapses and the six houses collapse, then this qiē will become a cloud of smoke. Therefore, it is natural that she is afraid in her heart.

"Sister Fanghua, do you think something will really happen to our Xie family?" Seeing that Xie Fanghua was half-silent, Xie Yi looked at her and asked softly.

Mrs. Ming is much stronger than Mrs. Min!

Xie Fanghua thought quietly, the old lady in the sixth room of the Xie family and Concubine Lin were handkerchiefs, what did Mrs. Ming get from the old lady in the sixth room of the Xie family, right? I wanted to hurry up and discuss the marriage of my two daughters. Xie's sixth room is destined to not be able to run, so her daughter can marry off.

This year, if it was a previous life, she was a serious boudoir lady, she had no ability and couldn't do anything, but in this life, she had a lot of things in her hands, and she could always do something. Even if the emperor's actions are harsh and ruthless, then, if he really wants to fight, it will not reach the worst point.

Now it is the first month, according to the footsteps of the previous life, then it is the end of this year, and there are still ten months to go.
