Chapter Seventy-Six: Fainting

The princess of the town took the initiative to let Ah Jiu enter the Purple Shirt Guard, and had the intention to entrust Ah Jiu with the responsibility of leading the Purple Shirt Guard...... All the ladies looked at each other, how could it be?

It is true that Ah Jiu's appearance is indeed outstanding, not only is his eloquence unparalleled and his archery skills are accurate, but if these old princesses have seen the ladies say that no one can compare to Ah Jiu's, it is not appropriate.

In the Comparison Pavilion, the eldest princess was also angry about Ah Jiu playing the bamboo flute, and after a while, she paid special attention to Ah Jiu, and the eldest princess changed a little faster, and everyone knew that the eldest princess's reverse scale was the king of the mountain.

Xu is eldest princess just looked at Ah Jiu differently.

Otherwise, he would have heard that the purple shirt guard was embarrassed, and Ah Jiu quickly stopped the competition and rushed over.

The ladies thought that the eldest princess was standing up for the purple guard, but they were afraid that no one would have thought that what the eldest princess cared about most was Ah Jiu, who had 'offended' herself.

There is too much envy and jealousy concentrated on Ah Jiu.

There are many people who can't wait to be Ah Jiu at this time, and immediately bow down in front of the eldest princess.

Thinking about it carefully, Ah Jiufang can speak, and they can also speak.

Because giving birth to a child is like breaking through the ghost gate for a woman, there are by no means a few people who continue to be noble, and the dispute between the original spouse and the stepfamily has been in every family.

Famous families who pay attention to rules are naturally harmonious, pay attention to reputation, and rarely make trouble about the original children and step-children snatching dowries, husbands, etc., but elders such as eccentric fathers and grandmothers are not nothing, and there is a difference between who is favored and who is not.

This kind of gossip is often the focus of the world's attention, and when there is a stir, it spreads exaggeratedly throughout the imperial capital.

The warm sun fell on Ah Jiu, and at this time, the pretty and young Ah Jiu seemed to concentrate the most dazzling brilliance in the world, and a golden avenue had already been paved in front of her, as long as she walked up...... She is a person who is more beautiful than all the ladies in the imperial capital, and even more outstanding and valuable than Princess Diji.

Look at the meaning of the princess of the town. wants Ah Jiu to inherit her mantle.

No one in the empire can ignore the eldest princess.

While hearing the news, the wife congratulated the Jiang family, and at the same time, she was also thinking in her heart to see if she could marry Ah Jiu. Which son is worthy of Ah Jiu.

The son who was raised pampered will not succeed, and neither will the child who is not outstanding enough.

Jiang sighed silently. said helplessly to Mrs. Zhuge beside her, "I didn't expect her to remember the incident when she was a child, but in fact, I ...... I am a loving mother, and I am rarely strict with her, but Ah Jiu's temperament is too strong to let her understand how high the sky is, let her introspect and know how to be humble. I don't know if she'll become unsightly. ”

Mrs. Zhuge smiled and nodded, "I don't think she will be blind to anyone, but Ah Jiu has today, and Mrs. Jiang has contributed a lot." ”

If Ah Jiu is a piece of jade, Jiang's harshness towards Ah Jiu will not carve the jade more gorgeously.

The Jiang clan can be strict with Ah Jiu, but they can't be too strict with Mo Xinlan.

Stern will be said to be harsh on the original partner, and if you follow Mo Xinlan too much, she will be rumored to be killed.

It's difficult to be a stepmother, especially for the Jiang family, her every move is the talk of the imperial capital, and it's a little bit worse. Spit stars can drown her.

In recent years, the power of the Auxiliary State has been weak, and Jiang Shoufu is a very popular minister, and the status of the Jiang family has long been higher than that of the Auxiliary Prince.

Mo Xinlan's brother and sister are weak. It is easier to get the sympathy of the world.

Jiang took a sip of tea gently, his little finger was slightly cocked, and his lips showed a look of relief, in the end, it was the daughter he raised that was intimate, and he told the world about Jiang's difficulties, don't think that Mo Xinlan's sad look was that she Jiang treated her original concubine.

Mo Xinlan has not a lot of means to calculate and compete for favor,

After Ah Jiu returned to Beijing, he communicated with Mo Xinlan and Mo Junyong in private several times, and his stepmother was embarrassed.

Usually. Ah Jiu will definitely not rob Mo Xinlan's scenery, and even Ah Jiu has already decided to be Mo Xinlan's green leaf.

It's not Mo Xinlan who speaks for others. Ah Jiu will not completely save face for Mo Xinlan.

Jiang couldn't guess whether Ah Jiu would agree to the eldest princess at this time, although Ah Jiu didn't like the purple shirt guard very much. But she has always admired the eldest princess the most, and she can follow the eldest princess...... Ah Jiu will be very happy, Jiang will have more headaches, if he learns from the eldest princess, the eldest princess of Ah Jiu's marriage will inevitably intervene in the future.

"Hey."

Jiang's is not hypocritical, and raising a smart daughter is not all good things.

Today, Jiang obviously felt that Mu Yanyu's mother, Mrs. Guo, was deliberately good to him.

Thinking about it, Mu Yanyu has already expressed his attitude at home.

The Jiang family never wanted to make Ah Jiu's marriage so complicated, too many people paid attention to it, and now it ...... If you want Ah Jiu to be low-key and ordinary, I'm afraid it won't be, and the knots around me show that Ah Jiu is very sought-after, but fortunately, there are still two years before Ah Jiu is ninety-five years old, and she can choose slowly.

*****

Ah Jiu didn't walk to the eldest princess to take the jade pendant, not because she couldn't see the eldest princess's sincerity, nor because she didn't know how to fear the eldest princess.

"Your Highness's expectations of me are too heavy for me to bear."

"If you can't afford it today, you will be able to afford it sooner or later."

The eldest princess smiled knowingly and looked at Ah Jiu with expectation, "I can only rest assured that I will hand over the purple shirt guard to you, you are a little younger in terms of age, and you are better than them in terms of knowledge." Just now you said that the times create heroes, and now I put the opportunity in front of you, Ah Jiu, you can't bear to miss it? ”

"It's difficult for the Purple Shirt Guard to be as incomparable as when His Royal Highness was alone in the imperial capital, but he has done too little."

Ah Jiu Fuli said: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, my ability is not enough to bring the purple shirt guard back to glory......"

Seeing that the eldest princess's face changed, Ah Jiu secretly encouraged herself, and her voice was calm and did not change because the eldest princess was angry, "The preservation of the purple shirt guard is a reminiscence of the past, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess only needs to restrain them and understand the meaning of the purple shirt guard, the inheritance is far from what I can do, especially your inheritance, you must hand it over to them personally." To tell the truth, when Her Royal Highness the eldest princess became famous, I was not yet born, and I can't understand your experience and the experience of conquest. ”

No one can point fingers at the purple shirt guard, Ah Jiu is very self-aware, and neither can she, her ability and status are insufficient.

She forced her way out, perhaps to make things worse.

The eldest princess slowly hooked the corners of her mouth, admiring Ah Jiu even more.

"Can I plead with Her Royal Highness the eldest princess for one thing?"

"Huh?" The eldest princess asked teasingly, "Why do you think I will agree to your request?" That's why you refused to follow me. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Ah Jiuxiao's brows furrowed, as if he was very distressed. Then he said firmly: "Just because His Highness also wants to make the empire better, the people are harmonious, and there are fewer disputes in the family." Your Highness doesn't want her tragedy to happen again, after all, there is only one of you. And there are many unfortunate people. ”

The girl who was kneeling on the ground and crying looked up with red eyes, puzzled what Ah Jiu meant when she mentioned herself again, did Ah Jiu still want to step on herself again? Do you have to push yourself to death?

The eldest princess paused and asked cautiously, "Say it." ”

"I implore Her Royal Highness the eldest princess to add the protection of underage people into the law, and use criminal law to protect them from the mercy, harshness, and harm of their elders."

"Ah Jiu ......"

The eldest princess shook her head slightly, "You're still too young. I don't know how to be sophisticated. ”

"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess can't do it?"

"It's not that it can't be done, it's ......"

Mo Xinlan took the eldest princess's words on the side, pulled everyone's attention to herself, and talked eloquently, "The ninth sister thinks that the law is useful, this is not unreasonable, but in the real situation, how many people will let their children go to the yamen to complain?" The people of the empire are the most particular about family ugliness and not publicizing it, and the younger generation sues their parents, even if it is reasonable, it will be considered unfilial. Sometimes the law is not even as useful as the rules laid down by the patriarchs of the clan. ”

"The ninth sister is too serious and naΓ―ve."

Mo Xinlan gave a blessing to the eldest princess. Turning around to take Ah Jiu's hand, he said affectionately, "Sister Jiu is far smarter than me. It's just that with less experience and more knowledge in the future, the ninth sister will definitely be even better. ”

"The second sister said that there is no difference from what the world thinks."

Ah Jiu dodged Mo Xinlan's outstretched arm, and her firm and persistent gaze crossed Mo Xinlan, past many ladies, and suddenly her petite body suddenly rose a little higher, and the momentum on her body was even more sufficient, and she was also a little fearless, "Sage Cloud." Don't do it because of small evils, don't do it because of small good. It is useless to look at the law at the moment. But does the second sister dare to promise that it will not be useful in the future? Before the Xia Shang Zhou, there was no law at all. After the change of dynasties, the law gradually became perfect, and as long as the number of literate people increased, the number of people who understood the law and obeyed the law also increased. ”

"The people are the subjects of the empire, and it is not the patriarch of any family who can decide life and death, and using clan law against law is itself disloyal to the empire. It just so happened that the second sister reminded me......"

Ah Jiu looked at the eldest princess, "I think that the patriarch of the family should appropriately revoke the power of life and death over the clansmen, and gradually let the people understand that the laws of the empire are the only rules that restrict their words and deeds." Of course, this will be difficult to do, and it will not be achieved overnight. When the world works harder, there will be less resistance for future generations or future generations, and we can't always push things to future generations because of difficulties. If it drags on from generation to generation, how can there be progress? ”

"The future of the empire lies in the young people, so the empire needs to protect them, and the future of the empire will be better only if they are strong and outstanding."

"As long as the law can save one more person, and one less victim who has been hurt and has nowhere to redress, I think the existence of the law is meaningful."

The smile on the eldest princess's face gradually faded, and her body couldn't help but tremble, "Like! It seems like! ”

"Mother."

The eldest princess fell backwards, and thanks to the quick eyes of the Zhaohua County Lord, she supported her, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Ah Jiu......" The eldest princess was not in good health, her face was even more pale at this time, her forehead was densely covered with a layer of cold sweat, and she couldn't use her strength, "Zhaohua...... Protecting Ah Jiu, don't blame her, it's me, it's me who reminds me of ......"

"Mother!"

Seeing that the eldest princess had fainted, the lord of Zhaohua County called the imperial doctor and asked people to help the eldest princess go back to rest.

After the shock, no one dared to approach Ah Jiu, and the person who said that the eldest princess fainted had never appeared since the founding of the empire.

I haven't seen it before, the eldest princess won with strength when she was not a princess, and no one dared to mess with her after she was named the eldest princess of the town.

Ah Jiu lowered his head slowly, has it been too much?

Zhuge stood beside Ah Jiu, "I don't think Her Royal Highness the eldest princess blames you, Sister Ah Jiu, don't worry too much." ”

"I don't regret it, but when I get home...... My mother is going to be angry with me again. ”

Ah Jiu hammered his forehead in frustration, "Why can't you always help it?" ”

If the eldest princess has three longs and two shorts, Ah Jiu will not be happy in her heart.

Mo Xinlan's eyes were complicated, with a little complaint, "You shouldn't refute me, as long as you can bear it, as long as you are loyal to the empire?" Ninth sister, it's not me talking about you, it's not a good thing to be too maverick and fearless, sooner or later the Mo family will be implicated. ”

"Okay, I'll go find an acquaintance and ask in a moment."

Mo Xinlan taught Ah Jiu in the tone of the eldest sister, "I hope it's still too late, you should be quiet in the future, and don't make trouble anymore." ”

"Who is the second sister looking for?" Ah Jiu suddenly stopped Mo Xinlan, her eyes burning as if she could see through people's hearts, "Let's not talk about whether Her Royal Highness the eldest princess fainted because of my words, but I said that Her Royal Highness must be surrounded by people at the moment, and there are many people, and it is not easy for the second sister to find someone to inquire about the news, and if she is not a close relative, she may not be able to get the exact news." Your Highness's dearest relatives...... Which one does the second sister know? ”

Mo Xinlan thought in her heart to see the prince of Chengguo, "Don't ask about this." ”

"The second sister always talks about the reputation of the Mo family, you better understand what really damages the reputation of the Mo family."

Ah Jiu said in a low voice: "The second sister has a lot of girlfriends, until now the second sister still doesn't believe that the prince of Chengguo is about to marry a wife?" His marriage to the daughter of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is already a fact and cannot be changed, if the second sister is seen by anyone, even if you are willing to be a concubine, your father is not willing to have a daughter who is a concubine, even if that person is a noble prince. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You! ”

"Don't say that you are running around and sacrificing for me, I can't afford it, once your reputation is damaged and someone catches you, don't blame me for reminding you in advance." t

Ah Jiu turned around and dragged Zhuge away without hesitation.

"Your second sister is also sad enough."

"yes."

Ah Jiu nodded, and didn't hide it from Zhuge Shi, "If she is a bad person or has bad intentions, just beware of being far away, but she is not bad-hearted, but she acts too extremely, and she is preoccupied, and she always does something that makes you embarrassed, regardless of her, everyone is a sister, just care about her...... She has stubbornness. ”

Talents like Mo Xinlan, who seem to be well-intentioned but always get in the way, are the most difficult to do.

Ah Jiu is merciless to the enemy, but he can be like Mo Xinlan...... She also felt a little like she couldn't get her hands dirty.

*****

Mo Xinqing, who had never shown up, was worried at this time, biting her lip stubbornly, "Failed again." ”

How should she explain to her master?!

This time, the chess pieces that were finally buried next to the eldest princess did not achieve any effect...... Mo Xinqing knew what price they had paid for this unconscious chess piece.

It's good that she succeeded this time, but she will definitely be punished after failure, and she is reluctant to hand over the power that she has finally mastered.

She doesn't want to be a pawn in the master's hands, she wants to be a chess player! (To be continued) R655
