Chapter 10: Sidelined

"Have you heard of the Yanjing Zhao Guo Mansion? The person who will come tomorrow is the prince of the Guogong Mansion and his party. Thinking about it, there is no need to say it for the two sisters. "Now that Jiang Yu has revealed it, Jiang Nan will not hide it. It's just that the person who was still smiling gently, when he mentioned the Zhao State Mansion, he had restrained his smile, and his expression looked solemn.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Jiang Ying only felt a buzzing in his ears, and there was nothing more like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. Is it a delusion? Why did she see Jiang Rou's face flushed, her lips trembling open and closed, but she couldn't hear what she said?

Behind Jiang Nan on the opposite side, the bluestone bonsai placed on the Eight Treasures Pavilion coldly refracted the brilliance, making her feel cold all over her body.

"Ah? Baby? As if someone was calling her, Jiang Yu stiffened her neck and slowly turned her head to meet Jiang Yu's worried eyes.

"Why is she so frightened?" Holding her little hand that had unconsciously clenched into a fist, Jiang Yu's eyebrows frowned, "Why are your hands so cold?" ”

The warmth came from the palm of his hand, he moved his eyes, took a breath secretly, and finally suppressed the horror in his heart.

"I was afraid to hear that the world was coming." To tell the truth, Jiang Ying felt a lot better.

Can you not be afraid? The palms of her hands were cold, and she subconsciously wanted to run away.

Zhao Guogong's Mansion, if she hadn't even heard of the Gu family, it would have been in vain for her several years of family upbringing.

As the old saying goes, ignorance is fearless. Unfortunately, in the world of the Great Zhou, who doesn't know Yanjing Gu's? It is the entire Jiang clan, half a hundred clansmen, and it is really against the Gu family, and it is not enough for people to stuff their teeth.

How much trouble did she cause this time?

"It's still a little girl, after all." Jiang Nan soothed softly, and his eyes revealed concern. "Seventh sister, don't be afraid, tomorrow you just need to see the ceremony, and then you will have dinner in the back hall. Vertical interstitial screen, still the same as usual. Just remember, don't be noisy. The prince doesn't like to be noisy. ”

He turned his head and explained to Jiang Rou, "What kind of identity is the son of the world, the thoughts that should not be had, and they are not allowed to grow at all!" ”

Uncle Jiang Nan, although not as good as Jiang Yu Minhui, is also an understanding person. is different from Jiang Rou, Jiang Nan is not like Jiang Rou to Xu's family, he obeys Zhang's mother's words and listens to them.

And because Jiang Rou is the girl's family in the end, when she looks up, she can only see the sky on the top of the courtyard, and she cares about the trivial things between women and can't get on the table. Although Jiang Nan wanted to persuade her to live a down-to-earth life and be less disturbing. If you really want to talk about things, how can you be reasonable with a girl who has been raised in the back house in her teens?

In the long run, I can only mention her more, so as not to make her confused.

After being taught a lesson by the uncle in the Sifang Zhai, Jiang Rou bit her lip and turned pale.

She was just happy, excited for a while, and said, "Since the prince has some connections with the house, can you bring one or two brothers?" was scolded by Jiang Nan in public, but he was still in front of Jiang Ming.

The five girls had tears in their eyes, and they were saddened by the closest people in the house, and the golden beans had fallen in the blink of an eye.

"What are you yelling at her? Where did she know it was powerful? It's better than Jar. Asked the girl outside to come in, helped Jiang Rou to go down to freshen up, Jiang Yu patted Jiang Yu's back to see her calm down, and then sat back with peace of mind.

"What should she think when she hears these words in the ears of the world? It's better to discipline her at this time than for her to not know the severity and misfortune from her mouth. ”

However, he was helped into the side hall and separated by a curtain. When Jiang Rou heard him say this, she also knew that she was reckless, and she was smashed by the pie that fell from the sky.

Yanjing Zhao Guogong Mansion, but it is not for him Jiang to think about it. Since then, I have stopped thinking about it, and I don't dare to be ambitious, and I will meet the prince of the Guogong Mansion the next day, and I will be in a proper manner.

When the masters of the house came back, they had dinner in the upper room in the evening.

The seven girls of the Jiang family saw that everyone was happy and happy, and they thought that they were coming for the prince of the Guogong Mansion to come to the door tomorrow, and they felt honored.

Zhao Guogong's mansion, thinking of it makes her daunting.

Half of the government of the Great Zhou Dynasty fell into the control of the family, and the imperial power and the family had deep grievances. The seventy-two families of the Great Zhou Dynasty, like the Jiang family, have only risen for more than 40 years, and in one fell swoop, they jumped from the poor to the "scholars" and became the nouveau riche, but they were only barely squeezed into the middle and lower streams.

The Mansion of Zhao Guogong, in Jiang Ming's view, is the overwhelming Taishan Beidou. Those who can play with the imperial power in the world have always been the one who leans towards power.

Among the powerful people of the family, the descendants of the Zhu family, the Youzhou Guan family, and the Yanjing Gu family are three-legged. The three giants fought each other on the one hand, and on the other hand, they joined forces vertically and horizontally, confronting the royal family. King Wen of Zhou's henchman, when he was a lieutenant of the dynasty, was in charge of the three armies in Jinai, which made the family dare not act rashly and was too presumptuous. King Wen has wooed each of the three families, and there is no lack of sowing discord in secret.

According to Jiang Ming's understanding, this is the more obscure "Zhou Tianzi and the princes of all walks of life". A sign of troubled times.

Being involved with such a person is a blessing or a curse!

However, to her surprise, it was Jiang Yu who mentioned the "origin". Jiang Yu said it bluntly and directly, but in Jiang Yu's ears, there is clearly another layer of meaning!

It turned out that the wife of the Guogong Mansion was from the Xu family's descendant branch, and the champion of the dynasty, Hou Yimai. And the wife of the county guard, the Xu family, was originally the Xu family who won the hearts of the people back then, and was willing to be the pawn of the Guogong Mansion, sending the Xu woman to marry the Jiang family and control the pawns of the emerging family in Jiangnan!

What's worse is that the county warden and the overseer were under the door of Master Zongzheng back then. And this Jiuqing of the current dynasty is also a disciple of the Gu family!

With such involvement, the Jiang family can be regarded as looking up to the Gu family, and they should be counted as the Gu family's henchmen!

After ten years, Jiang Ying only knows today. In the past, she was limited by her status as a woman and could not have more contact with foreign affairs. Just when Jiang Ying thought that the Jiang family was just an ordinary hairpin family in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was considered a famous family in Jizhou. A family banquet revealed the shocking facts to her: the Jiang family had already stood in line, and stood on the opposite side of the imperial power!

made Jiang Ying have the most headache, but it was her Jiang family, who was clean and upright, and was involved in such a bottomless whirlpool. How many people in history who opposed the imperial power died a good death?

I want her to be a bud-like little girl, a good noble girl of a family, and suddenly I find that I am not a straight seedling. What was considered a happy life in the past may be affected by the fish pond at any time. The gap between them is enough to subvert all her cognitions in the past ten years.

Jiang Ying only hated herself at this time for being too clear-headed, Jiang Nan and Jiang Yu had a deep meaning in her words, why did she understand it? If you can be like Jiang Rou, you can put it down after hearing it, and don't do any in-depth research. After receiving a lesson, in a blink of an eye, you can greet Xu with a smile on your face, that is a blessing!

After dinner, everyone ate a cup of tea and dispersed.

In the deep twilight, under the eaves of the verandah, the man's emaciated back leaned sideways on the vermilion pillars, tilting his head slightly, and playing with the warm jade on his waist in his palms.

There was a man beside him, but he was sitting on the trunk with his back to the lotus pond. Under the moonlight, the square outline of his face can be faintly seen.

"The second brother is wrong. Yu'er is more intelligent than Ah Rou. ”

The man standing with his eyes narrowed slightly, his face uncertain.

"I'd rather she'd be stupid."

"You can't keep it a secret."

"yes, how long can you hide it?"

The major events in the family can't be hidden from the seven girls' exquisite hearts.

The general trend of the world can't hide from people of insight in the Great Zhou. The difference is just sooner or later.
