The eldest lady was confused, why did she drive her away before she got down to business?

She turned around and wanted to pull Mrs. Xing to say a few more words, but the little maid had already stepped forward to salute respectfully and wanted to send her back to the room.

She stiffened for a while, and finally had to give a bow and pull the second lady to retreat together.

Mrs. Xing and Young Master Xing looked at each other for a moment, and seeing the anxiety in Young Master Xing's eyes, she hurriedly turned around and was helped back to the house by Young Master Xing.

As soon as he left the main hall, Young Master Xing couldn't help but speak: "Mother, it turns out that Miss Jiang San is the daughter of Jiang Tongzhi of Jizhou, why didn't you tell your son earlier?" ”

Mrs. Xing sighed silently.

"Jiang Tongzhi, isn't it the parent official who helped His Royal Highness the Crown Prince deal with the epidemic in Jizhou the year before last? Later, when the epidemic was suppressed, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was once again appreciated by the emperor, so the Prince was extremely grateful to this Jiang Tongzhi in his heart. Although he is only a fellow acquaintance at the moment, in the eyes of his son, it is only a matter of time before he becomes an official and becomes a knight. ”

Young Master Xing was immersed in his words, and he didn't notice the difference in Mrs. Xing's face at all.

"Now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is surrounded by a group of rabble, the prince listens to those slanders, and is more and more indifferent to our Xingfu, if we can marry Jiang Tongzhi, the prince will definitely treat him differently, and we will have the power to compete with those rabble." As he spoke, a sly glint in his eyes.

The rabble in Young Master Xing's mouth is talking about the two companions of the prince, Pei Ye, the eldest young master of Yiguofu, and Chen Yijin, the son of Chen Shilang.

Madam Xing sighed again, she naturally understood the current situation of Xing Mansion in the palace.

The emperor has nothing to say to the Xing family. After all, there is a virtuous concubine in the middle.

But the prince is there. Not necessarily.

Now the prince's power is becoming more and more stable. Even the prince went to show up at the last horse racing festival, and now the holy will is difficult to change, this country will be the prince's sooner or later.

At that time, their Xing family will be stretched.

Seeing Mrs. Xing pondering, Young Master Xing said, "Mother don't worry about her son, my son has his own thoughts about life's major events. In fact, Miss Jiang San is dignified and beautiful. Calm and serious, and knows how to medical science, in terms of her son's situation, this Miss Jiang San is the best choice. ”

Xingfu needs a dignified and dignified daughter-in-law, and Young Master Xing is sick, and it is even more suitable to marry a girl who understands medical science.

That's why he came back in such a hurry, just to tell Mrs. Xing, this Miss Jiang San. It's a good candidate for one in a hundred.

But Mrs. Xing waved her hand and said, "Son." Don't think about it. The Shen family has already taken the lead, and the little lady has a marriage contract with the son of the Shen family. ”

"The Shen family?" Young Master Xing blurted out, frowning again, "Which Shen family?" ”

Madame Xing raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at Young Master Xing, and muttered, "You were still young at that time, and you didn't know these things. ”

Young Master Xing's eyebrows twisted, and he looked directly at Mrs. Xing.

Mrs. Xing saw that her son was unwilling to give up, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Have you ever heard that there was a Concubine Shen who died in the cold palace. ”

"Concubine Shen......"

Young Master Xing frowned and recalled, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and said, "Mother is talking about the favorite concubine of the first emperor?" ”

He had heard of this, from the eldest sister of Concubine Xian.

Mrs. Xing nodded: "Concubine Shen can also be said to be the favored champion of the Sixth Palace back then, and her eldest brother Shen Guoliang was the former Marquis of Yuping. Later, it was rumored in the palace that Concubine Shen murdered the prince in order to compete for favor, and she was stripped of her concubine position by the first emperor, entered the cold palace, and died alone. And the Marquis of Yuping was also cut off. Fortunately, the first emperor remembered his merits, so he did not copy the whole house. The Shen family, however, has been in a slump since then. ”

Young Master Xing listened stunned, and couldn't help but feel creepy.

The Shen family can rely on Concubine Shen to shine on the lintel, but they will also face a catastrophe because of Concubine Shen.

On the other hand, today's appearance, the eldest sister of Concubine Xian is the most favored in the harem, and the Xing family is a famous family in Beijing......

It's just that such a favor and such prosperity can have a long life?

Hearing the history of the decline of the Shen family, Young Master Xing thought of the fate of his family.

Mrs. Xing saw his worries, and said slowly: "But right now, the Shen family wants to marry the Jiang family, or the second master of Jiang, so it seems that the Shen family is also unwilling to decline." ”

The young master of the punishment paused, and finally sneered lightly: "It's just that the second master Jiang really didn't think highly of himself, and actually promised to give a good little lady to a broken household like the Shen family!" ”

Mrs. Xing couldn't help but be a little annoyed when she saw that her son was so serious for a little lady, but when she thought of being preempted by the Shen family, she also felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Rushing back with joy, but it was empty joy, Young Master Xing helped Mrs. Xing back to the backyard with a hesitant face, and when he saw the busy maids in the house, he suddenly asked, "Mother, what is the ......prescription just now?"

Mrs. Xing's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled and said, "I know what you're thinking, just rest assured, my mother won't forget to prepare a pair for the nurse." ”

Young Master Xing hurriedly said: "The son doesn't mean this, the son and the nurse are close, but how can the nurse compare with the mother?" The son thinks it's better to be cautious, why don't you take the prescription to the palace and let the eldest sister take a look at the Tai Hospital? ”

Mrs. Xing heard her son protect her like this, and she smiled on her face, but said: "That's not necessary, the girl of the Jiang family is not a person without a score, if she can't figure it out, she doesn't dare to take it out rashly, why take it to the palace again, save the ...... of the population."

This matter, it is enough for one Imperial Doctor to know, is it possible to make trouble for the entire Imperial Hospital?

Although Young Master Xing was still a little worried, he didn't persuade him more, said goodbye, and withdrew.

The maid pounded the medicinal herbs according to the recipe given by Su Xue and presented them to Mrs. Xing.

Mrs. Xing glanced at it quickly and asked, "What about the nurse's share?" ”

"Mrs. Hui, it has been sent over, presumably the nurse is already wiping her face at this moment."

Mrs. Xing nodded, glanced at the medicine powder in the white porcelain bowl again, and waved her hand: "Take care of this, I'm too tired today to apply it." ”

The maid was a little surprised, but she didn't dare to ask more, so she bowed her head and answered: "Yes, madam." ”

Mrs. Xing paused, and added, "If the young master asks tomorrow, he will say that I have already used it." ”

The maid buried her head deeper: "Yes, ma'am." ”

The maid retreated, and Mrs. Xing sat alone in the room. The dim light reflected the side of her face, showing a hint of treachery.

She won't rashly smear and use it, first ask the nurse to try the medicine, if it really works, she will not be too late to use it.

It's just that I thought that my son's marriage had never been settled, and finally came to a suitable one, but there was already a marriage contract......

She closed her eyes in weariness and sighed heavily.

The eldest lady and the second lady returned to the wing room angrily, walked to the door of Su Xue's room, and saw that it was already dark inside, and the eldest lady couldn't help but sneer at the door.

When I got back into the house, I was still muttering to myself, not knowing what I was cursing.

Early the next morning, they got up early to say goodbye to Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Xing, and were led by their mother-in-law to the West Corner Gate.

The morning light was faint, and the groom was already waiting outside the corner gate.

Su Xue stepped on the footstool and got into the carriage, and as soon as she sat down, she felt that the anger in this carriage was really heavy.

The eldest lady had a gloomy face, and from time to time she stared at Su Xue in a weird manner, and the second lady also had a straight face, as if the whole world owed her a huge debt of millions......

Su Xue sat in it, only feeling depressed and uncomfortable.

As soon as the carriage drove out of Xingfu and went on the official road, the eldest lady sneered and said: "It is really rare for Sister Xue to enter Beijing with the eldest aunt this time, after all, the next time she enters Beijing, I am afraid she will sit in a sedan chair." Seeing that Sister Xue is safe and sound, and her face is radiant, it can be seen that what Bao Zhangzheng said is useless in Sister Xue'er. When you go back, you can discuss with the second brother, and you can get the six rites with the Shen family earlier. ”

As soon as Su Xue heard about the Shen family, she felt worried for no reason.

Seeing that Su Xue was silent, the eldest lady smiled again and said, "Although the Shen family has no power now, after all, it is also the son of a serious family, if I hear that Sister Xue has accepted such frivolous actions as a strange man's picture scroll, I don't know what she will think." ”

Mentioning this incident, the second lady was also full of displeasure, and sneered: "Why is my mother worried about this? The third sister has the support of the second uncle, let alone receiving a picture scroll, even if the third sister and other sons and brothers are eyebrow-raising, hooking up with three and four, then the Shen family does not dare to frown! ”

Hearing this, Qianrou, who had always been steady, was also anxious, and frowned: "Second Miss, you...... How can you say that about Miss Three? ”

Hooking up with three and four, that's what only prostitutes in Hualiu Lane do. The second lady is a beautiful lady anyway, how can she say such things to humiliate her cousin?

Qianrou's face turned red with anxiety, but she didn't dare to say anything more, she had already offended the eldest lady once before, and Su Xue had warned her.

But listening to the second lady say such things, she really couldn't help it.

Su Xue raised her hand to stop Qianrou, turned to look at the second lady and the eldest lady, smiled calmly, and said: "The second sister is very ashamed of what she said, but the second sister also knows that the younger sister has been so rude since she was a child, and she can't be compared with the dignified and elegant second sister." ”

The second young lady was still domineering and ready to have a verbal battle, but when she saw that Su Xue did not refute, but praised her, she was proud, and her chin was raised.

After Su Xue finished speaking, she frowned regretfully, and said: "It's just a pity, even my sister and I have talked about family affairs, and the second sister is so delicate and beautiful, but she still has to run around and work hard for a lifetime......

As she spoke, she raised her eyes and glanced at the second miss, and her face really fell.

Su Xue shook her lips and continued: "But don't worry, the second sister has a high vision, how can Chen Gongzi be worthy?" Even Young Master Xing and the second sister may not be able to look at it. It seems that the eldest aunt has to continue to think about the second sister's family affairs and work a lot. After all, even Mrs. Xing said that the second sister is not too young. ”

Su Xue said, meeting the second lady's gaze.

The implication is that instead of being busy slandering me and slandering me, it is better to quickly toss yourself and marry it, and wait any longer, but you will really become an old girl! (To be continued......)
