Aunt Xu felt that there were more and more strange places in today's winter solstice banquet.

Earlier, some palace people called Fangzi and Fangqi sisters away, saying that the reason was that Mrs. Wang was enjoying the scenery in another pavilion and felt that it was more quiet there, so she specially called her two daughters over, which was very unusual, because Aunt Xu knew her cousin's temperament, and she was not a person who liked to be quiet, and acting alone at the winter solstice banquet was never in line with Mrs. Wang's behavior.

Then the eldest princess also found an excuse to leave the table, saying that she felt tired and had to take a nap, why did she take a nap, and suddenly remembered that she wanted to see Xin Wuniang?

But if Mrs. Wang used the winter solstice banquet summoned by the eldest princess to do some conspiracy, Aunt Xu didn't believe it, unless her cousin was crazy.

Qin Fangzi is not in Beizhixie now.

She was still hiding in the plum forest that went to Qianshenyuan, and watched Xin Wuniang's master and servant follow the old palace people over the winding path, and then instructed Shark Zhu to act according to the plan.

Shark Zhu walked to the banquet hall, found a palace person casually, stepped forward and said with a smile: "This female envoy, I am a servant of the Xiangdi Mansion, according to the order of my family's Sanniang, I plan to ask Xu Erlang's servant Xianyu to come over and explain a few words, because my family's Sanniang is now alone in front of Meilin, I can't go far, I can only bother the female envoy to go to Beizhixie to pass on the word." ”

The palace people here in the banquet hall were somewhat surprised to see Mrs. Wang sitting on her shoulders and going to the other side of the shallow and deep garden earlier, and also noticed that the maidservants who followed the two ladies of the Qin family were wearing green jackets and blue skirts, but they did not pay attention to the appearance of the two maids, and because they saw the eldest princess going to the shallow and deep garden soon after, knowing that she was chatting with Mrs. Wang, she did not dare to refuse the request of the maid of the Xiangdi, thinking that the maid of the Xiangdi and the Xu family were also friendly, and the lady of the Xiangdi Xu remembered an important matter, and it was inconvenient to directly invite Xu Erlang to the princess's mansion for a private meeting. That's why Xu Erlang's servants came, in order to deliver the message.

Nothing to mess with.

The palace people agreed to come down, and they didn't dare to delay, so they hurriedly went to Beizhixie to find out which person was Xianyu, and really brought the words of the shark bead.

Xianyu naturally did not act without authorization, and knew Xu Mingxi.

When Xu Mingxi heard Fang Qi's explanation, he didn't hesitate at all: "You go quickly, don't care if the third sister has any requests, just do it, you don't need to inform me again." ”

Xian Yu hurriedly came back with the palace people, asked the direction of Qianshen Yuan, and when he walked to the intersection, he saw a maidservant waving at him.

Xianyu walked a few steps into the plum forest, and asked tentatively, "Is it Sister March or Sister August?" ”

Xu Erlang's servant Xianyu is famous for his inability to recognize faces.

"I'm Changying." Shark Bead Road.

Xian Yu had also seen Chang Ying a few times at this time, and when he heard that this voice was really Chang Ying's voice, he said: "It turns out that it is Sister Chang Ying who is following Sanniang today." ”

"Sanniang is over there." The shark bead pointed not far away.

Xianyu took a look, of course he couldn't tell whether it was Erniang or Sanniang just by his clothes, but because he was sure that the maid was Chang Ying, he didn't doubt who the person over there was, and he was about to go over, but he was pulled by Shark Zhu: "Sanniang was reprimanded by the eldest lady just now, and I was not happy, I was afraid that Sanniang was thirsty, but just now I poured a soup for Sanniang, Sanniang said that I don't want to drink, I just thought about asking you to get a few fresh fruits, maybe I can persuade Sanniang to use some, don't forget to take a knife to cut fresh fruits." ”

Xian Yu heard that it was just such a trivial matter, so he responded.

He turned back to the North Branch, and sure enough, he took a few fresh fruits and begged for a knife - most of the guests were concentrated in the North Branch Pavilion at this time, and the place where fresh fruits, soups and other foods were provided was naturally nearby, because the fresh fruits that the guests liked were different, but there were indeed servants and maids who ran errands here to take fresh fruits, and today's guests were all nobles, no one would grab the fresh fruits and gnaw them, there were many kinds of fresh fruits if they were peeled and cut into pieces, and the flesh would change color after a while, affecting the appearance, so it was necessary to cut and cut on the spot. The servant woman who was in charge of supplying the fresh fruit was busy, and although Xianyu's behavior of begging for a knife was a bit unusual, the servant women couldn't care so much about saving trouble.

Xianyu still handed over the fresh fruit and knife to "Chang Ying".

As soon as he turned around, Qin Fangzi came out of Merlin and appeared almost on his heels in Beizhi Pavilion.

Aunt Xu naturally asked, "How can you come back alone, not to mention your mother and Sanniang, and follow your maidservant?" ”

"A-Niang drank too much today, the eldest princess is talking to A-Niang, A-Niang asked me to come back early, I don't feel at ease, but thinking about A-Niang's worries is not unreasonable, if there is a comparison between the ladies, even I am absent, Weng Weng will blame A-Niang when I go back, so I hesitated for a while and didn't turn back, only told the shark to go back to serve A-Niang, my aunt knows, where will the third sister care about filial piety to A-Niang, just she stays in the shallow and deep garden to take care of, that is, it is just a decoration."

This response was heard by many people.

Aunt Xu frowned slightly, feeling that Fangzi's response would not only damage Fangqi, but also that even Mrs. Wang would be slandered.

Drinking too much at other people's banquets, which is harmless for men, but for women, it must be regarded as a gaffe, not to mention listening to Fangzi's words, Mrs. Wang not only drank too much, but should also make trouble, otherwise why would the eldest princess ignore these many guests and make a special trip to Qianshenyuan to "talk"?

"Erniang, can you see that my fifth mother also went to Qianshenyuan?" Mrs. Jiang also asked.

"I just wandered in Merlin, not far from the shallow deep garden, and hesitated for a while, and I couldn't see anyone passing by on the road." Qin Fangzi responded as Mrs. Wang instructed.

Aunt Xu felt more and more eccentric.

I heard that Xin Wuniang went to Qianshenyuan, shouldn't Erniang be surprised? After all, she didn't know that Xin Wuniang was summoned by the eldest princess alone.

Aunt Xu said to Mrs. Jiang: "Sister Lobby is unwell, I should also visit, Mrs. is relieved, and wait for me to come back for a while." ”

Seeing that Aunt Xu was also going to Qianshenyuan, Qin Fangzi was in a hurry, and she immediately got up and blocked Aunt Xu.

The movement was so big that it attracted both eyes to look at it.

"Aunt doesn't have to go, my mother and the eldest princess have a private conversation, and the eldest princess has also explained that no idlers are allowed to disturb her."

Is it in the name of the eldest princess? At this moment, even the crown princess couldn't help but pay attention to Qin Fangzi.

Although Xu Mingxi's seat was a little far away and he couldn't hear the conversation here, he had heard about Fang Qi being scolded by the eldest lady just now, and he felt strange in his heart - the third sister would never say a bad word about his mother-in-law in front of him, how could he condone the maid to speak bluntly this time? Or is it that the maid named Changying still doesn't know the temperament of the third sister, and is it self-made?

In short, Xu Mingxi saw that his second cousin and his mother seemed to have an argument, and even Mingjiao was nervous and a little confused, so he naturally had to come here to ask.

"Mother, what happened?"

Seeing that her son was also involved in this incident, Aunt Xu had to suppress her surprise and said in a soothing tone: "It's okay." ”

Let's wait and see, what kind of trick her cousin and Erniang's mother and daughter are playing!

Aunt Xu only guessed at this time that Mrs. Wang was at most slandering Xin Wuniang in front of the eldest princess.

Fang Qi watched Xin Wuniang enter the Qianshen Garden, and the two of them only looked at each other, and then watched the master and servant enter the house with the old palace people, in view of the fact that the Jiang family has been "sticking to their posts" and not moving an inch, Fang Qi naturally couldn't listen to the corner of the wall at this time, so he had to continue to stand in the courtyard and blow the cold wind.

Until this time, Fang Qi had basically guessed Mrs. Wang's overall plan, but she still found it unbelievable that Mrs. Wang was really mad to the point of being mad in order to let Qin Fangzi marry Second Brother Xu, and to get rid of her, a concubine who could actually get along with each other with a little life? !

In the room, the eldest princess took the hand of Xin Wuniang, who was about to salute, although she felt that the next words seemed a little difficult to speak, her eyes even turned on the two servants and maids of the Xin family, but she looked at Mrs. Wang's pleading eyes, and she still no longer hesitated.

"Good boy, I have a reluctant invitation to let you come here." The eldest princess asked Xin Wuniang to sit down next to her, but she herself avoided her eyes slightly: "Mrs. Wang's sister-in-law, Qin Dalang, although she was sick and weak in the past, I guarantee that she has recovered now, Mrs. Wang likes you in terms of talent and temperament, and she intends to ask for her husband to marry you, but she is worried that you are not at ease with Dalang's body, so I let me be a guarantor, good boy, I am willing to be a guarantor, are you willing to believe that Qin Dalang is a good match for a good person?" ”

The words that fell on the head made Xin Wuniang stunned, and the two servants and maids of the Xin family were also stunned, what kind of routine is this? Mrs. Wang fell in love with the little lady of their family, and directly asked the eldest princess to protect the media, but the eldest princess didn't discuss with Ah Lang and Mrs., and directly forced the little lady to come?

Xin Wuniang was shocked for a few breaths, of course she couldn't sit still at this time, got up and saluted: "The courtiers believe that the Xiangdi Dalang is talented and healthy, but when it comes to marriage, the courtiers obey the orders of their parents and the words of the matchmaker, so they dare not respond, and ask the eldest princess for forgiveness." ”

Of course, Mrs. Wang knew that Xin Wuniang could not agree to the marriage because of the eldest princess's words, and she didn't look down on Xin Wuniang at all as a daughter who continued to give birth, and the reason why she made this request was nothing more than to "transfer" Xin Wuniang to this secluded place.

It's not the first time she's come to the Plum Garden to attend the winter solstice feast.

It's just that the owner of the plum garden back then was not the eldest princess of Wanyi, but someone else, in addition to appreciating the plum blossoms at the winter solstice banquet, what else can you appreciate? And the invitation sent by the eldest princess of Wanyi clearly stated the words "appreciate the north branch and congratulate the winter solstice".

The winter of that year was indeed exceptionally cold.

That winter solstice feast even had flying snow like sprinkling salt.

If it weren't for Zhao Qingqu's strong recommendation, Weng Dad would not have won the high position of Zaizhi so smoothly, so Zhao Qingqu's winter solstice banquet, not only Weng Dad would have to congratulate him, but even the old lady would have to come to socialize.

Zhao Qingqu's wife, Su Shi, was worried that the old lady would not be able to tolerate the cold when she was old, so after the luncheon, she deliberately asked the old lady to come to Qianshen Garden to rest, and she did not attend until the dinner.

Mrs. Wang knew about this plum garden, and only the shallow and deep garden had a bedding bed.

All these years have passed, the old place has changed to a new owner, the same winter solstice banquet, the same is still in the plum garden, but because of the unusual identity of the new owner, he would not have thought of arranging a place for guests to rest after luncheon.

Without Tu's recommendation for Shark Zhu, Mrs. Wang would once again take the risk of buying a killer from Qiu Quantang, she must let Xin Wuniang die in this Merlin today!
