Yulan really came the earliest, and the county lord of Qingjiang was very satisfied and accepted her affection.

The county lord of Qingjiang has the highest status in the mansion, but it is not the longest one, and there is a mother-in-law above her, but the mother-in-law does not live in the county lord's mansion, but lives in the Zhang Mansion behind the county lord's mansion.

Yulan naturally wanted to go to see the old lady first. The old lady is not very old, and she wears a red-bottomed gown, looking very rich and kind. It is not so easy to be a mother-in-law for the county lord, especially the county lord of Qingjiang who is capable and has face in the royal family.

The old lady not only couldn't manage the affairs of the county lord's mansion, but even the affairs of Zhang's mansion were all handed over to the county lord to take care of, and she just teased her grandson every day and enjoyed the blessings, so the relationship with the county lord was very harmonious.

Yulan came to visit, but Mrs. Zhang didn't dare to accept the ceremony. Yulan is very young, and his position is there. Of course, Yulan will not be idle at this time, worship the princess's shelf, everyone was bustling, the guests and hosts sat down, and then the children of the county lord came to pay Yulan a salute.

The county lord has a total of three sons and four daughters, two of the three sons are out of the family, one is out of the concubine, the sons are older than Yulan, and the daughters are all out of the concubine except for one concubine, and the remaining three are all concubines, and the eldest two of them have already been decided, and Yulan has seen them one by one.

The daughters said that Yulan had met them before she got married, but the three sons saw this famous princess for the first time.

The eldest son of the county lord of Qingjiang has already married a daughter-in-law, and he took his daughter-in-law to salute Yulan together, and said: "I have seen Mrs. Anguo!" ”

Yulan is very generous, she has long expected that there will be such a scene today, and she has already done a good job in her heart. When meeting for the first time, there should be a meeting gift, each of the men has a jade pendant, and the women have a pair of bracelets per person.

A few juniors accepted it in a proper manner, and bowed and retreated. The tutor of the son of the bishop of Qingjiang County is still very good, Yulan knows that her eldest son will follow Ye Yichen, and now he is serving in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, he is young, and it is definitely impossible to have a high position, but with Ye Yichen's support, he is naturally not afraid of no future in the future.

After saying a few words, there were already guests in front of him, so the county lord of Qingjiang confessed and went out to greet him. Yulan said: "Cousin, there are few people here and there are many things, if there is anything I need to do, please just ask, don't be polite to me!" ”

Seeing that Yulan didn't have the slightest princess's shelf, the lord of Qingjiang County was very happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "You can come to support me, there are not many things today, I can be busy." You will sit down and be prostrated! He smiled and walked away.

Yulan is just saying, it's one thing to do it or not, and it's another thing not to express one's position. Among the high-ranking families, what they seek is a face.

Qingjiang County's mother-in-law also has two younger brothers and daughters-in-law to help, so naturally she is not needed, and Yulan is no longer polite. Sitting in the flower hall, gossiping with Mrs. Zhang, she flattered Mrs. Zhang very happily in a short time.

The county lord of Qingjiang celebrated his birthday, and as soon as the guests came, the number of people gradually increased. The wedding banquet for the birthday of the county lord will be held for three days. Today is the right day, so the people who came to pay their respects today are all the top nobles of Dachu, mainly the clan and the family with the title of hairpin, as well as the noble ministers who hold real power.

There are only three generations of Da Chu inheritance now, and the population of the clan has not been much, and most of the Yulan who came to worship the noblewomen of the Shou clan met when they recognized their relatives.

After getting married, the women's communication was according to the men, and they were divided into several circles according to their respective men, one circle of the clan, one circle of the noble family, and another circle of the noble family. The flower hall of the county lord's mansion is very large, the windows around it are all open, and the living room is full of icebergs, although it is a hot day, it does not look particularly hot.

Of course, Yulan is in the circle of the clan, and he is the one with the most noble status. When she was in the palace, she received countless posts and gifts, and when she really went out to socialize, she realized how powerful Ye Yichen was.

She originally wanted to have a good relationship with a few noble ladies of the clan, but who knew that Lu Dao didn't have that time at all. Except for a few of the ladies present, they came forward one by one to meet her, and found all kinds of tricks to make friends with her, Yulan was praised countless times from top to bottom, and she even blushed a little bit.

The most exaggerated thing is the wives of the generals, now that the formation of the twelve regiments and battalions has reached a critical moment, for a good errand, which noble family has not done their best? Yulan only felt that if she asked them to kneel and lick herself now, they would happily do it.

Today is the first time that Yulan has gone out as a princess since marrying into the palace, so everyone's eyes have naturally been revolving around Yulan. Even the county lord of Qingjiang has been robbed of a lot of limelight.

The county lord of Qingjiang was not angry, but just watched how Yulan responded. Now these noble ladies are like sharks seeing flesh and blood when they see Yulan, and there is light in their eyes, and the county lord of Qingjiang shuddered a little when he saw it.

No wonder she keeps closing her doors!

Yulan is long-sleeved and good at dancing, dealing with it decently, and not putting the princess on the shelf of anyone, holding hands and talking kindly, which makes people feel like a spring breeze. Those noble ladies made all kinds of vague requests, such as inviting her to listen to music and enjoy flowers, but she was pushed away without bounds. Often Yunshan fog cover said a lot, these people reacted, this princess is really capable, she can't say a few words about the topic of the quasi-insurance to 108,000 miles, she shouldn't say a word she shouldn't say, the news that shouldn't be revealed is not thorough at all, and the co-author said it for a long time It's all nonsense!

This communication skill may not be able to be done by the county lord of Qingjiang himself, and she can't help but be amazed. originally thought that Yulan was just a little concubine, with a good character and temperament, and her communication skills in dealing with people must be lacking. Now it seems that this ability is innate?

The county lord of Qingjiang thought to himself, it is really a blessing for the seventeenth brother to marry such a daughter-in-law!

With Yulan's current identity, there is no need to put up a fight at all, as long as the implicit and unrevealing style arrives, others will not think that she has fallen into the prestige of the palace, but will only think that she has a good family education and is approachable.

Because her identity is there!

Sure enough, after this circle of entertainment, the clans were full of praise, and the nobles and nobles were almost the same.

While talking and laughing, the second and fifth wives came. The second wife and the fifth wife are members of their mother's family, and Yulan naturally came over to greet her in person. There was a miasma of smoke at home, but the second and fifth wives went out but didn't bring them out at all. Now although the Yang family has no first assistant, there is a princess in the palace, the third aunt is the princess of the county, and Yulan is the princess.

Even if the old lady is not in the seat, but his protégés are all over the world, and almost all of the current six hall officials are promoted by him, who is not grateful to him, this energy is not comparable to ordinary people.

Therefore, everyone also greeted the two Mrs. Yang politely. Yulan stepped forward to greet them, and the girl led them to sit down, and Yulan sat next to them and asked in a low voice, "How is the condition of the old lady and the wife?" ”

The second lady had a smile on her face, but she also said in a low voice: "Sister-in-law's fever has subsided, and Imperial Doctor Huang came to touch the old lady's pulse again yesterday, saying that the reply is very good, and grandma don't have to worry!" ”

Yulan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this.

As she was talking, a little girl shouted; "Mrs. Ma has arrived! Miss Martha has arrived! ”

happened to think that Mrs. General Bing chased after her and was close to Yulantao, Yulan dealt with her with a few words, and saw Ma Yunniang following Mrs. Ma into the flower hall with low eyebrows.

Yulan said a word of "confession" to the chief soldier's wife and greeted him. Since Chen Jia got the emperor's favor, the power of the West Factory has been expanding day by day, and he has robbed Jinyiwei of a lot of power. The status of the commander of the Jinyi Guard in front of the emperor is also getting worse, the commander of the Jinyi Guard is only the third grade, and the status of the military attache is lower than that of the civilian official, and the status of the Ma family among the guests can almost be said to be at the bottom.

Because of their status here, Mrs. Ma and Ma Yunniang were not personally welcomed in by the county lord, but by the daughter-in-law of the housekeeper.

So everyone was a little surprised to see the hot princess greet her in person. Mrs. Ma and Ma Yunniang were also a little surprised to see Yulan coming over, Mrs. Ma pulled Ma Yunniang's arm, and Ma Yunniang reacted and bowed down together: "I've seen Mrs. Anguo!" ”

Yulan was on the side of her body, and only received half a salute: "Auntie, Yun Niang, don't be so polite." She stretched out her hand to hold Ma Yunniang's hand, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many days, I heard that you have already decided on family affairs, and you won't say a word to me!" Another day, I'll ask someone to send you a post, inviting you to the palace, let's talk! Don't you lose face! ”

Ma Yunniang saw that Yulan was still the same as before, and the tension in her heart suddenly disappeared. It's not that she doesn't want to continue to maintain friendship with Yulan, it's really that Yulan is too high and too good to marry, and she can't figure out what kind of attitude she should use to face the little sisters who had a good time in the past! Ma Yunniang heard her say this, smiled and nodded. "I'll go!"

Yulan didn't have time to ask more, and the housekeeper's daughter-in-law had already led Mrs. Ma and Ma Yunniang to a table. At this time, the daughter-in-law of the housekeeper came in quietly and said a few words in the ear of the county lord of Qingjiang, and the county lord of Qingjiang went out to pick up people as soon as he confessed. After a while, the county lord of Qingjiang brought in an acquaintance - it was Xiao Yunqian, who is now the princess of Zhao.

The corners of Yulan's mouth turned up, and he sneered slightly. But I didn't expect her to come back today! A few days ago, I heard Yu Xin tell her that Xiao Yunqian took advantage of King Zhao's absence to kill King Zhao's favored concubine, and Emperor Xiao's concubine was furious, and sent down Xiao Yunqian's grandmother and girl, and grounded Xiao Yunqian in King Zhao's mansion to prevent her from moving around.

Yulan naturally didn't know what to do, Xiao Yunqian, in order to participate in today's birthday banquet of the county lord of Qingjiang, said that her father and mother went to Concubine Xiao to intercede in person.

Xiao Yunqian's father is Concubine Xiao's brother, and Concubine Xiao allowed Xiao Yunqian to go out for the sake of her brother's face. called Xiao Yunqian over and reprimanded her, telling her to be cautious outside before daring to let her go out.

As soon as they heard that Xiao Yunqian was coming, all the ladies in the room stood up. Yulan hasn't seen Xiao Yunqian for a few days. I saw that she was wearing a big red group flower Hangzhou silk palace dress, a light green tassel hanging silk skirt, a bun on her head, a pearl and emerald head, and the jewels held in the phoenix mouth on the hairpin, all of them are the size of a fingernail.

It's just that dressed like a peacock opening the screen, are you here to congratulate your master on his birthday, or are you here to pull hatred?

When everyone saw Xiao Yunqian, they bowed down and saluted, Xiao Yunqian was arrogant, her chin was about to rise to the sky, the ladies were almost twice as old as her, but she accepted the salute calmly, without any modesty. It is not to ask people to be exempt from etiquette, and the ladies who come forward to salute are all embarrassed. There are many noble ladies and men here who support King Zhao, but Xiao Yunqian doesn't distinguish between enemies and me, and no one will give face!

Such a woman, not to mention a prosperous family, is really unlucky who marries someone!

Yulan saw this person's behavior, and his heart was simply incomprehensible, the Xiao family, from Xiao Zongchang, the secretary of the ministry, to Xiao Zongsheng, the Marquis of Jinghai, and then to the uncrowned king Xiao Huang Guifei in the palace, which one is not the top smart character, how could he raise such an idiotic daughter.

Yulan understood as soon as she saw her situation, the Xiao family had already planned to support King Zhao for many years, and the prince's status was indeed unstable now, Xiao Yunqian was afraid that King Zhao would become the emperor in the future, she would be the queen of the world, and everyone here would be her servants in the future. So walking outside, she really put on the master's shelf. In addition, she has been grounded by Concubine Xiao for so long, she has been holding her breath, and she is just here to be majestic!

It's just that even the real queen is not so arrogant and rude. What's more, Xiao Yunqian's "queen" is only possible.

Seeing her so rude, the lord of Qingjiang County turned ugly. Today is on her home turf, and she will be disgraced if something happens.

Xiao Yunqian saw Yulan standing in the crowd at a glance, and a provocative smile appeared on her face, and she didn't stop until she walked in front of Yulan and said, "Little Aunt Sixteen, don't come unharmed!" I heard that Aunt Sixteen's maiden family has been really lively recently, just because she thought that the dead aunt was sick with the old lady, and now she has sent her sister who is still in the heat of filial piety to the East Palace, and now she doesn't even have a name. Tsk, this is really lively, even more exciting than those dramas! ”

Everyone here knew that Xiao Yunqian and Yulan had a grudge, and when the emperor was touring south, Xiao Yunqian colluded with his cousin to assassinate the crown princess, and Yulan was also present at the time, and almost lost his life. Although this matter was suppressed by the royal family and the Xiao family, almost everyone in this circle today knows about it.

It's just that I didn't expect Xiao Yunqian to stir up trouble as soon as she came up. It was so quiet for a while that it was audible that the needles were falling, and everyone wanted to see how Yulan, the new princess, dealt with Xiao Yunqian. When Yulan heard this, her heart chuckled. Aunt Liu's incident caused a storm in the city, which was unexpected, but how did Yuxin's incident get out? This matter can be big or small, and if it is not handled well, it is a stain on the crown prince's body, and it will greatly affect his political life.

Hearing Xiao Yunqian's words, the second wife and the fifth wife also changed their faces. Both of them are knowledgeable people, and naturally they also know that this matter is very important, and it is comparable to ordinary family affairs.

Yulan was really speechless in her heart. She is obviously the victim of suffering, she doesn't seek justice from Xiao Yunqian, Xiao Yunqian is against her everywhere. To deal with people like Xiao Yunqian, you have to retaliate and slap her in the face.

Yulan smiled very gently and dignifiedly, and her voice was unhurried, very gentle and amiable: "The affairs of the mother's family in this palace don't worry about the nephew and daughter-in-law!" I heard that my nephew and daughter-in-law stayed at home in the palace and were bored for a whole month. ”

Yulan doesn't put up a stand with anyone, but she puts up a stand with Xiao Yunqian, it is true that the princess is the princess, and her princess has added a honorific title, so she is naturally more noble than Xiao Yunqian. She is a generation higher than Xiao Yunqian, she is Xiao Yunqian's sister-in-law, Xiao Yunqian provoked her, she really found the wrong person!

Yulan's words are also damaging enough, and everyone present doesn't know that Xiao Yunqian has done something wrong and was grounded at home by Concubine Xiao! Everyone was secretly happy in their hearts when they heard this, and even the noble lady who was humiliated by Xiao Yunqian just now directly covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

Xiao Yunqian was so angry that there was smoke on her head. "You ......" Xiao Yunqian's two aunts, Mrs. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao Er, had already come over, and took Xiao Yunqian's hand one by one: "Princess, let's go sit over there!" ”

The two wives of the Xiao family can see it clearly on the side, as soon as Xiao Yunqianfu came in, she offended the noble ladies present, and now she is provoking with Princess Jin, and she doesn't look at who is standing behind the princess, if King Zhao wants to ascend to the throne, Ye Yichen is better than anything else if he says a word, if he doesn't marry his princess well, he will pinch people when he meets, Xiao Yunqian doesn't know what he is pretending to be in his head!

Mrs. Xiao pulled Xiao Yunqian to their seat and said in a low voice; "Princess, just say a few words! Behind Mrs. An Guo stood the Lord of Jin! ”

She was kind enough to remind her, but Xiao Yunqian was sneered at by Yulan, and when she was angry in her heart, she couldn't help but say angrily: "Why does the eldest aunt also want to discipline this princess?" ”

Although Mrs. Xiao is her eldest aunt, but Master Xiao is just a positive third product, her edict followed her husband, and now she is also a positive third product, so naturally she can't compare with Xiao Yunqian. Xiao Yunqian put on the princess's shelf, and Mrs. Xiao really had no way to take her.

But no matter what Mrs. Xiao said, she was also her elder, and she was blocked back by a junior like this, and Mrs. Xiao was also so angry that she fell back, her face became blood-red, and she couldn't say anything to persuade her later.

Second Mrs. Xiao originally wanted to follow the persuasion, but when she saw this situation, she immediately shut up. Who wants to ask for this boring! Xiao Yunqian snorted angrily as she watched Yulan being surrounded and flattered by several noble ladies, in addition to a few wives of the Xiao family on her side, there were also several wives of her in-laws' family, no one moved forward, she only felt a wave of anger blocked in her chest, and she could only curse secretly in her heart.

In fact, she also knew in her heart that if she really confronted Mai Mangdi and Yulan here, with her eloquence, there was really nothing she could do about Yulan! The most embarrassing person can only be her!

After Xiao Yunqian came, people came almost as well. The one who should have paid homage to the county lord of Qingjiang also bowed, and the county lord of Qingjiang led everyone to the garden to have a banquet.

In summer, the house is hot, and the banquet is placed under the shade of the trees in the garden, and the county lord of Qingjiang also called a small play, and while eating the banquet, while listening to the music, it is also quite elegant. Generally, the banquets of large families are also arranged in this way.

The courtyard of the county lord's mansion is not small, it is the height of summer, the yard is full of flowers, the county lord of Qingjiang leads the way in front, everyone walks in a roundabout way, the breeze blows, the birds sing and the flowers are fragrant, but it is also quite refreshing.

Yulan is naturally in the first echelon, and Xiao Yunqian is naturally in the first echelon. At this time, Xiao Yunqian suddenly said: "The county lord's garden is smaller, and the flowers and trees planted are also normal, so I will ask someone to send some precious flower and tree seeds to the county lord to plant!" ”

She originally meant to show favor to the county lord of Qingjiang, but as soon as she said something, the meaning was crooked. The county lord of Qingjiang was so angry that his eyebrows jumped. Dryly: "No need! The little snail dwells naturally dare not compare with the palace! ”

Yulan shook his head secretly when he heard this, thinking that fighting with someone like Xiao Yunqian didn't have to lower his IQ. At the same time, he silently ordered wax for King Zhao, who married her. It is obvious that King Zhao doesn't like Xiao Yunqian, but in order to compete for the throne, in order to compete for the supreme throne, he married the Xiao family, and it is necessary to win over and appease the Xiao party.

Xiao Yunqian is so brainless and so unscrupulous, even if one day she really becomes the queen, Ye Minyu will abolish her sooner or later. It's a pity that she has that little IQ, I'm afraid she can't think so far.

The banquet started step by step, although Yulan was the chief, she was quite low-key, just watching Xiao Yunqian perform on the side, Xiao Yunqian didn't mess with her, and she didn't bother to fight back. The county lord of Qingjiang was angry, and Xiao Yunqian was also very unpopular in the past, but there has never been such a thing as today, pointing at the east and scolding the west, domineering, and making the chief and a few nearby seats depressed, and the atmosphere is a mess.

She really regretted inviting this ancestor over!

Ma Yunniang wanted to say a few more words to Yulan, but she never found a chance. After eating this meal for two hours and listening to a few plays, the ladies left one after another. Yulan also said goodbye to the county lord, and when she left, she found Ma Yunniang and said, "I'll write you a post in a few days!" ”

Ma Yunniang saw that Yulan did not forget her best friend after becoming a princess, and nodded happily. The county lord personally sent Yulan to the second gate, and sat in the Babaohua covered car, the banquet in front of her had just ended, and Ye Yichen was waiting for her at the second gate.

The two said goodbye to the county lord and got into the car, Ye Yichen saw that Yulan drank a few glasses of wine, his little face was flushed, there were no outsiders in the car, so he couldn't help but reach out and pinch it, Yulan's skin was smooth like clotted fat, and it felt surprisingly good. Ye Yichen also drank a lot of wine, and he couldn't help but be unruly with the strength of the wine.

Yulan jumped: "Lord Wang, what are you going to do?" ”

Ye Yichen smiled: "What are you talking about?" "I'm going to pull the hem of her clothes. Yulan has been busy with the mess of her mother's family these days, coupled with the bad things that Yuxin encountered, she is a little listless in bed with the prince every night, and the prince is inevitably a little dissatisfied.

The prince smiled and pretended to be a prodigal: "It's just a little time, why don't you just ...... here" Yulan saw two green lights in Ye Yichen's eyes, thinking that he didn't seem to have fed him in the past few days, thinking that he was going to come for real, he quickly shrunk himself into a ball, and grabbed the placket of his clothes tightly with both hands: "No, not here!" "It's a shame to do such a thing in a carriage!

Ye Yichen was like a demon who tempted humans to sin: "What are you afraid of, let's be quiet, others can't hear it!" ”

Yulan shook her head again and again; "Don't, don't!"

Ye Yichen Road; "Even if others hear it, they are all slaves, and the deed of sale is in your hand, what are you afraid of!"

Nima, the car is shaking! Still in front of others, no matter how open Yulan is, he will accept incompetence. Ye Yichen's claws stretched out, Yulan screamed in fright, and his small fist swung over.

Ye Yichen laughed "poof". The more you laugh, the louder it gets, and the last laughs you laugh.

Yulan reacted for a long time before he reacted, the car shook the horse, the prince turned out to be teasing me! She is usually a very smart child, why did Ye Yichen's IQ drop when she saw her!

Ye Yichen took her into his arms and wanted to kiss her, but Yulan stretched out his hand and said, "Well, it smells of wine!" "I really can't do anything, and I can't kiss it, where is the prince so easy to send away, and after a long time, I finally had a long kiss with her little wife.

Ye Yichen let go of her contentedly. Yulan retracted his head into his arms, his eyes closed, and he talked about today's things in the back house. Xiao Yungan's strange deeds, she told Ye Yichen as a joke. Ye Yichen just smiled and listened. Yulan suddenly remembered something, sat up straight and said: "The matter of the fifth sister, I don't know who spread the Lu Dao, even Xiao Yungan knows the Lu Dao!" "
