Chapter 167: Dismounting
The county lord of Yulan took a step forward, pushed away the Lantern Festival that was blocking Sun Miaoxi's body, and asked coldly, "What?" Sun, do you dare to welcome me? I'm your sister-in-law! β
"If the county lord comes to chat and chatter, as a sister-in-law, I am naturally welcome," Sun Miaoxi said with a sudden turn of words, and her momentum was instantly overwhelming: "But if the county lord wants to bring someone to sing a big opera here, I'm sorry, I'm not a theater garden here, so I won't accompany you!" β
Before the county lord of Yulan could speak, Jiang Yuanniang preemptively answered: "What a sharp tooth and sharp mouth, she is really a good girl taught by Shouningbo Mansion!" I'm afraid you don't know Zhanhao's preferences, right? Zhan Hao doesn't like a domineering and sharp-mouthed woman like you the most! β
When Sun Miaoxi heard this, she only felt funnyβββ who is the domineering one?
Sun Miaoxi didn't bother to pay attention to Jiang Yuanniang, and when she saw that they didn't leave, she directly glanced at Lantern Festival.
Lantern Xiao quickly understood and retreated.
Jiang Yuanniang saw that Lantern Festival didn't dare to pestle the guests anymore, thinking that Sun Miaoxi was afraid, and relying on the fact that the county lord of Yulan was her handkerchief, she was confident to shout with Sun Miaoxi again: "If it's true, I am Zhanhao's original wife, what are you?" It's just a steproom, and I have to give me a concubine when I see it! β
The county lord of Yulan echoed: "That's right, Yuan Niang is the original wife, Sun is your stepfamily, why don't you give Yuan Niang a salute?" β
Concubinage?
Sun Miaoxi felt that the two of them were even more funny......
She looked at Jiang Yuanniang up and down unceremoniously with the eyes of a fool: "Do you think that no one else knows that you are an abandoned woman?" Or do you think that no one knows the laws of this dynasty? β
That's right, the so-called "original wife" refers to the man's first wife.
But the law of this dynasty says so. did not abide by women's morals, adultery/loss of virginity, and committed the heaviest of the seven original marriages that were abandoned. Since then, he is no longer eligible to be the "original match", and the wife married by the husband is still the original match. You don't have to be a step-room.
Sun Miaoxi remembered that Jiang Yuanniang was abandoned by Zhan Hao because she made a mistake.
And a prince and nobleman like Rui Wangfu will not divorce his wife easily...... Unless this wife has made a big mistake that is intolerable and tolerated!
It is probably that Jiang Yuanniang's mother's family itself is not weak, otherwise Jiang Yuanniang is afraid that she will not only be abandoned, but may have been "sick" unconsciously.
Jiang Yuanniang's expression really changed, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and her voice became sharp: "I haven't been suspended, everything is just a misunderstanding!" β
"If you hadn't been suspended, I would have been carried into the Rui Wang's Mansion by eight sedan chairs? Zhan Hao asked for the decree of the princess for me. Will the emperor approve it? Sun Miaoxi's voice was not as sharp as Jiang Yuanniang's, but every word was fine, forcing Jiang Yuanniang's face to be very ugly.
"Don't be complacent, you don't know the inside story, no matter how high-sounding your words are, it's useless!" Jiang Yuanniang glared at Sun Miaoxi viciously, full of confidence and self-righteous retort: "I said everything is a misunderstanding!" As long as the misunderstanding is resolved, Zhan Hao will immediately return to me, and he won't look at you more! β
"Really? Then I'll see. Sun Miaoxi's voice fell, and Lantern Xiao happened to lead Chu Liu in.
Sun Miaoxi nodded at Chu Liu: "You came at the right time." Just to send off a guest for me. β
The county lord of Yulan still refused to leave, deceived himself in front of Jiang Yuanniang, and angrily scolded Chu Liu: ", you dare to touch me? β
Chu Liu didn't move, only looked at Sun Miaoxi with an expressionless face. Wait for Sun Miaoxi's instructions.
Sun Miaoxi didn't even look at the two county lords of Yulan, and directly instructed Chu Liu: "What the prince tells you, you just do." If something happens, there is a son of his own life. β
"The slave obeys."
After Chu Liu finished speaking, he stepped forward directly and said "offended" to the county lord of Yulan and Jiang Yuanniang. Just one by one, forcibly dragged them out!
Chu Liu dragged them all the way to the outside of the mirror circle and didn't let go. Without waiting for the county lord of Yulan to get angry, he quickly turned back, and closed the courtyard door with a "snap", completely isolating the county lord of Yulan and Jiang Yuanniang outside.
Lantern Xiao, who leaned out of the window, was dumbfounded: "I didn't expect Chu Liu to be so powerful!" β
"That's, how can the girl trained by the son of the world you admire the most not be powerful?" Sun Miaoxi teased with a smile.
It turned out that as soon as Sun Miaoxi married into the palace, Zhan Hao assigned the guards he had carefully trained to her name, firstly to protect her safety, and secondly, to let her have subordinates who could be sent at will and had force value.
In addition to the guards, Zhan Hao also left Chu Liu in the mirror circle βββ Chu Liu seemed to be no different from an ordinary maid, but in fact she was armed with martial arts, and three or five big men couldn't get close to her.
She was specially trained by Zhan Hao to serve Sun Miaoxi, and the purpose was to bear his name in the inner house, be a "wicked person" for Sun Miaoxi, and do some "evil things" that Sun Miaoxi was inconvenient to do.
Lantern Xiao admired Chu Liu extremely at the moment, but she was faintly worried: "This ...... Is that good? Will the county lord of Yulan go to the princess to complain? Will Sister Hatsuyanagi be punished? β
Sun Miaoxi looked disappreciative: "Have you forgotten how the prince commanded before leaving?" β
As soon as Lantern Xiao remembered Zhan Hao's confession, his eyes immediately lit up: "The prince said that if someone bothers you with messy things, you just have to order someone to beat them out, and he will take care of everything." β
The smile on Sun Miaoxi's face became even bigger, and she was also very satisfied with Zhanhao's arrangementβββ Jiang Yuanniang probably deliberately provoked Zhanhao to come to her when she was not there!
It's a pity that although Zhanhao is not there, she has already thoughtfully arranged everything for her, so that Jiang Yuanniang can only be thrown out of the mirror in the end.
Sun Miaoxi had just sent away the county lord of Yulan and Jiang Yuanniang, the eldest young lady of the Zhan family's third room, Gu, and ordered someone to invite Sun Miaoxi on the back foot, saying that he wanted to invite Sun Miaoxi to come over and talk.
"The young lady invited me over?" Sun Miaoxi was not impressed by this young lady of Zhanda, and after she got married, they didn't have much intersection with each other.
When she learned that Young Lady Zhan had ordered someone to invite her over, she was naturally full of surprise and puzzlement: "Does anyone come to say what's the matter?" β
Liangguo replied crisply: "The little maid who came said that the young lady heard that there are many novel and unique tricks in the marriage of the princess. I want to borrow a few of them! The slave maid also heard that the eldest young lady was embroidering a fan cover for the eldest young master in the past few days. The slave maid also heard ......"
"Stop! Okay, you've said what you need to say. Sun Miaoxi interrupted Liangguo weakly, and decided to discuss with the normal Lantern Festival: "Isn't it okay to borrow a maid to borrow it from you?" Why did the young lady come to me in person? Let me go over for a while? β
"Do you have something else important to ask you to talk to? Is borrowing tricks just an excuse? Lantern Xiao analyzed.
Sun Miaoxi also guessed in her heart, so she didn't delve into it, and instructed Lantern Xiao to open the box and pick out a few patterns suitable for embroidered fan sets, and then took people to the three-room Bichen Courtyard.
Sun Miaoxi only realized that the borrowing of tricks was really just a disguise, and not only the Gu family was there, but even her mother-in-law, the third lady of Zhan, was also there.
"Ah Xi," Yun beckoned to Sun Miaoxi with an affectionate attitude. said softly: "It's really a bit hard to say, alas, it's all because of my mother's nephew......"
It turned out that the youngest nephew of the Yun family, who was a good gambler, went to the gambling house a few days ago to gamble, and when he gambled until his eyes were red and he lost penniless, he actually bet the personal jade pendant down...... He had no luck in turning the tables, and the jade pendant eventually returned to the gambling house.
The jade pendant next to him gambled, but it was not an ordinary jade pendant that he bet on. It is the ancestral jade pendant of the Yun family.
"That gambling house happens to be Ah Xi's grandfather's 'Leyi', I wonder if you can please say hello to your grandfather's family and let us redeem the jade pendant? Ask them to suppress this matter again, after all, the rumor is not good for the reputation of the evil obstacle. Yun said with hatred that iron does not become steel. also said his request euphemistically.
Sun Miaoxi heard that it was just a trivial matter, and for her, it was just a gesture, so she responded on the spot: "It's a trivial matter." Third aunt, don't worry, I'll let someone bring a message to my grandfather's family. Let them return the jade pendant to the Yun family. β
"Thank you very much," Yun shook Sun Miaoxi's hand gratefully. and pulled Sun Miaoxi to sit beside her, pointed to the plates of snacks on the small table, and urged in the tone of the elders doting on the juniors: "I heard that you like to eat small pastries and snacks, and you specially ordered someone to make them, you can eat them quickly and see if it suits your appetite." β
Yun's daughter-in-law, Gu Shi, is also a lively person, as soon as she heard her mother-in-law's words, she smiled and twisted a piece of pea yellow into her mouth, and complained vaguely: "Mother is partial, when you haven't arrived yet, I want to eat a piece first, and she won't let me!" β
This pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are lively and delicate, chattering non-stop; A kind and kind, gentle tone, occasionally interjecting a sentence or two, always taking care of Sun Miaoxi as a child.
The attitude of the two made Sun Miaoxi not feel restrained at all, and made her get close to them unconsciously.
Their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law treat each other with sincerity, and Sun Miaoxi will naturally not be hypocritical, so she thanked her generously, picked a piece of hibiscus cake she likes to eat the most and put it in her mouth, and chatted with them without a match.
The Yun family learned early in the morning that the county lord of Yulan had taken Jiang Yuanniang to find Sun Miaoxi, and quickly took the word to ease Sun Miaoxi's heart, and took the lead in talking about the county lord of Yulan: "She was spoiled by the old princess when she was a child, and it was inevitable that she would develop a rude and willful temperament, not to mention your second sister-in-law, even if it was me, the third aunt, she never put it in her eyes......"
"Whether she's rude and willful, or arrogant, let's ignore her," Yun smiled shallowly, and said something unruly rarely: "What's the matter, there's still a son here, isn't it?" β
"The prince of the world was raised by me, I dare to assure you that he is a good man, and he will definitely protect you, you just need to avoid the edge of the county lord, and leave the next things to the prince to deal with...... As for the Jiang family, you don't have to take her to heart. β
Sun Miaoxi had been listening to the Yun family quietly, but at first she was indifferent, obviously not taking the Yulan County Lord to heart. But when she heard the Yun family mention Jiang Yuanniang, her originally calm eyes flashed involuntarilyβββ it was the woman who had been involved with Zhan Hao, so she couldn't treat it calmly.
Yun's heart was as careful as dust, and he quietly saw Sun Miaoxi's reaction in his eyes, knowing that Sun Miaoxi still had some nostalgia for Jiang Yuanniang in his heart, so he chatted about Jiang Yuanniang's past casually: "Although the prince has been practicing martial arts all year round, he has no effect in his early years, but he just wants to strengthen his body and take a few less medicines......"
"In his early years, he said that he was a weak scholar with good manners, and he said that he was a weak and sickly medicine jar, until he accidentally fell into the water last year, and he recuperated hard, and his body and bones gradually improved," Jiang seems to be a lover of people, and when he mentions these past events related to Zhanhao, not only his tone is a little lower, but also the corners of his eyes are faintly red: "How does Jiang Yuanniang know that our son will get better in the future?" β
"Back then, she looked down on our son, but the Jiang family insisted on marrying our family, and she was the only daughter of the Jiang family.
"Jiang Yuanniang is the only daughter of the Jiang family, and she has been pampered since she was a child, and she is loved by thousands of people, and her temperament is naturally very domineering, which is better than the lord of Yulan."
