Chapter 180: Marriage (3)
In Emperor Chengwu's study, Xin Yan stood below, looked directly at Emperor Chengwu, and saluted him decently and generously: "Xin Yan sees the emperor, and the emperor is blessed and healthy." β
"Let's get flat!" Emperor Chengwu's hand floated for a moment, and there was no expression on his face.
The two princes and princesses of Beiyu are gone, which also indicates the end of the banquet, the banquet was originally held for the two of them, and the host is gone, what is the point of continuing this banquet?
But it was still early, so Emperor Chengwu and the queen made an exception to let them go to the imperial garden to watch, the scenery in the imperial garden was different from the scene when they came to the banquet before, the last winter, there was a chill everywhere, and the last time there was a thing where Cheng Yi fell into the water, and they broke up unhappily, and Shuyi and the Duan sisters, who were held by the stars before, are not in good condition now.
Since Duan Tianqi was imprisoned, the Prime Minister's Mansion has also been sealed, and the glory of the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday has long since ceased to exist, and they are no longer official ladies, and because there were too many people who offended in the past, everyone wanted to step forward and step on a few feet.
Even if they are attached to the queen, they can enter the palace, but the situation is very difficult, and no one will take care of them at all.
Although it is said that Duan Tianqi is the prime minister of the Great Jin Dynasty, under one person and above ten thousand, to be honest, the background of the Duan family is not deep, and it is not as deep as the deep heritage of many ministers' families in the court, which is also the main reason why Duan Tianqi collapsed after his fall.
Duan Tianqi jumped to the position of prime minister quickly, and there were not a few people in the court who were jealous and hated, and because he jumped too fast, so after the fall, he could only rely on the hard support of his sister and the queen, and the other Duan family talents could still have a seat in the court.
However, there are not many other Duan family members in the court, not to mention that their official positions are not high, so they can only barely protect themselves and take care of anything else.
And today, Duan Ling and Duan Lan have already suffered from I don't know how much ridicule
Irony, and unspeakable humiliation, this is really not something that can be easily let go of the two noble ladies who have always been high in the past.
If it weren't for Shuyi by her side, those noble ladies and young ladies would not be polite.
It's just that Shuyi has long been impatient, and she dressed up carefully today to come over to see the consultant company, but she just glanced at it a few times at the banquet, and she didn't have a chance.
It's all to blame for the princess of Beiyu, look at what she said, the banquet ended early, so that she didn't have a chance to see the consultant. In the past few days, because of her uncle's affairs, the queen mother has been affected, and even with her, she feels that her father does not attach so much importance to her......
Now the queen mother still asked her to come over and take care of Duan Ling and Duan Lan, which made her feel depressed.
If you want to talk about her feelings for Duan Ling and Duan Lan, if it was before, of course she felt that they were relatives with her, because of her uncle, the prime minister, she was a princess with more weight, but now the situation is different. Today's prime minister's uncle is already a sinner, a sinner who is scolded by the whole Jin, they are the daughters of sinners, and they are implicated with them, only they will be involved.
But she couldn't show her dislike, she could see that the queen mother still had deep feelings for her uncle's family, and what she did at the beginning was to protect her uncle's family, but her cousin didn't seem to appreciate it at all. According to Shuyi's thoughts, since people don't think they are helping, why do they step forward and stick their faces?
Shuyi's heart has no family affection at all, and she can only use two words in her heart, but she also knows that she will be reprimanded once her mother knows about this idea, so in order to leave a good reputation for herself, she will stay here to "take care" of the Duan sisters......
Duan Ling is delicate, no matter how well Shuyi hides it, she can still feel Shuyi's impatience, but she can't help it, 1 Now she can't help herself, if she doesn't establish a deeper relationship with her aunt and Shuyi, maybe their Duan family will really have no way out.
is as smart as she is, and she can see from her words and deeds that her aunt still has feelings for them, and she still regards them as relatives, but Shuyi is not necessarily......
For the sake of the Duan family and herself, she can only let go of her past pride, unload all self-control, please Shuyi, and favor the big tree of Shuyi and the queen, so as to take advantage of the connections of the upper circles in the past and find a husband for herself who can be relied on.
Fortunately, her image in the circle was quite good before, and there were several sons of the family who expressed their admiration for her, and now it is to see which person is still dead set on her.
Just marrying a golden beetle son-in-law, you don't have to worry about the rest of your life.
If Xin Yan was here now, and knew her thoughts, she would definitely laugh, and then give her a sentence: You are too naΓ―ve.
But it's not all her fault, after all, since she was born, she has had a too smooth life, even if she has scheming and scheming, but in the end, she is just a teenage girl, where can she be deep?
Thinking about things will only think of superficial surfaces, but because of this, she guesses that she can't go far......
It's just that it's good that Duan Ling can have such a clear and clear idea, at least in comparison, Duan Lan is really like having no heart and no lungs.
Duan Lan's positioning of herself is still the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion before, who is deeply favored by the people in the mansion and praised by others, such a cognition makes her not accept that she is already a person who is nothing for a while.
She is accustomed to the respect and praise of the world. As soon as others looked at her coldly, she also scolded her back as usual, and after Shuyi gave her the aftermath twice, her face was obviously uncontrollable.
Tie Qing's face turned blue, and he scolded loudly: "If you still can't control your mouth, leave as soon as possible, don't be embarrassed here!" β
Duan Lan was extremely aggrieved: "Princess, they were the first to scold us, why did you turn your elbow out, we are a family, they scolded them so ugly, is it possible for me to act as if I didn't hear it?" β
"If they want to scold, let them scold, anyway, it's just a few words back and forth, if you don't argue with them, people will say a few words about you at most. It's better for you to scold people, is it a joke that you want to attract everyone in the Imperial Garden to come and see you? You're going to be ashamed, but don't pull me! β
Shuyi's words are really humane.
What does it mean to scold them and let them scold? This is not scolded on her body, I don't know if it hurts, it seems to have nothing to do with her, no matter how you say that they are also a family, is it possible that because her father died, she turned her face and didn't recognize people when the Prime Minister's Mansion was in trouble?
"Princess, you're going too far. How can you say that we two sisters have always been on your side before, but now it is because our sisters have no use value, and you want to kick us aside and ignore it? Do you remember how much we did for you? Duan Lan's voice couldn't stop getting louder when she said this.
Duan Ling was afraid that she would annoy Shuyi, so he hurriedly grabbed her: "Okay, you don't say a few words, the princess didn't mean that!" β
Where can Duan Lan stop, now that's what she thinks in her heart, she has to get an answer, otherwise she will definitely not be reconciled.
Shaking off Duan Ling's hand suddenly, Duan Ling was defenseless, staggered back a few steps, and accidentally bumped into another young lady.
Originally, they were already eye-catching, but now that the action is so big, where can they hide the past?
They all looked at the joke.
Whether Duan Lan wins or Shuyi has the upper hand, it is also a very happy thing for them.
Duan Lan used to be aggressive, and there were not a few people who had suffered losses at her hands, but it was because of her identity as the second lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion that they didn't dare to argue with her.
And Shuyi has never been a tolerant character, a few years ago, she was okay, she would do some superficial work, but in the past two years, she has become more and more willful. These two people usually have the same hatred for the enemy, and they shoot with their mouths out. Now the two have infighting, isn't it a good show?
The young lady who was bumped by Duan Ling was just to get closer and hear what they were arguing about.
No, before I heard anything, I was hit by the pond fish, and I was in a bad mood, and suddenly I had a plan.
Grabbed Duan Ling and said, "Miss Duan, you can't stand on your feet at this stand, are you not feeling well?" Would you like to go and rest? As he spoke, he pulled Duan Ling and didn't let her leave.
Her plan was to let Duan Ling not be this peacemaker. Everyone knows the Duan sisters, the eldest lady is quiet and skillful, and the second lady is lively and clever.
And Duan Lan is lively and clever to change another way, that is, she is unforgiving, and she doesn't look at the occasion.
Because the Duan sisters basically attended the dinner together, most of the time Duan Ling watched Duan Lan from the sidelines and didn't let her cause trouble.
As long as Duan Ling is dragged away or delayed to prevent her from going crazy, then according to Shuyi and Duan Lan's personalities, this matter will definitely not be solved so easily.
Although Duan Ling knew her intentions, he couldn't shake off her hand, so he could only let her drag himself.
She wanted to call Duan Lan, but she kept interfering on the side, and Duan Lan didn't have the heart to take care of her now.
She felt that what Shuyi was doing was not authentic, and she didn't care about their sisters, she just used them.
Originally, Shuyi felt very irritable, and she was forced to ask by Duan Lan like this, and she didn't care about anything else.
"That's right, like you said, you have done a lot of things for the princess, but didn't you do it yourself voluntarily for the princess? What is it like now? Want to talk about what happened before? You've also reaped a lot of benefits from this princess, how can you say it? Besides, you were stalking this princess before, and now that you are in this identity, this princess can take you, you should be thankful, don't always feel that this princess owes you something!! β
