In the early morning, a rain last night rolled down all the yellowed leaves in the yard, and the originally lush yard suddenly felt a little more withered.

Listening to the rustling sound of sweeping the floor outside the courtyard, Wei Qingqing slept soundly, and saw the bead curtain move, and Wei Qingqing also opened her eyes vigilantly.

"What's wrong?" Wei Qingqing looked at Lan Sheng who came in and said.

"The imperial doctor came to the palace, saying that the hospital that treated you before was sick for a long time and was worried about your body, so he invited the queen mother's decree, and arranged for a imperial doctor to come and ask for your pulse. Lan Sheng Road.

Wei Qingqing half sat up, and he already knew in his heart who arranged this imperial doctor, but how could Rong Hai be so 'coincidental' and just happened to meet him?

"Help me get up and change my clothes first." Wei Qingqing said.

"Yes." Lan Sheng immediately recruited someone to bring in the washing things, and after serving Wei Qingqing to freshen up, he heard a rumor that Rong Hai was unwell, so he invited the imperial doctor to his house first.

Wei Qingqing blinked and looked at Lan Sheng, but Lan Sheng smiled with a rare smile: "Uncle does this, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is afraid that she will be so angry that she can't eat breakfast." ”

Wei Qingqing raised her eyebrows slightly, since the eldest brother is willing to come forward, then she is not strong.

But the eldest princess was so scheming about herself. Wei Qingqing didn't understand that she and her were concubines, even though she was not very satisfied with her sister-in-law, but on the surface, she was also respectful everywhere, and she had never done anything to be sorry for her, why did she chase herself so relentlessly?

Because of Mr. Yan?

Wei Qingqing thought of this possibility, and only felt pitiful for Rong Hai.

"I'm hungry, let's go pass breakfast."

Wei Qingqing turned around and walked out of the room and went to the flower hall.

Today's breakfast, Lan Zhi still went to the big kitchen to get one as usual. I personally stared at the small kitchen in private to prepare one, and the small kitchen prepared naturally Wei Qingqing has always loved to eat, glutinous rice cakes with red bean paste, refreshing and non-greasy tofu rolls, crystal shrimp dumplings plus two plates of side dishes, and finally with a bowl of clear flower porridge, which made Wei Qingqing's index finger move, and he actually ate half a bowl more than usual.

After withdrawing breakfast and resting for a while, Lan Zhi brought the bitter fetal medicine.

As soon as she smelled the bitter taste, Wei Qingqing felt uncomfortable in her stomach for a while, but the people in the yard thought that she just didn't like the bitter taste, after all, Wei Qingqing usually looked pampered, and her food and clothing were all very fine, and when she saw her like this, she didn't care much.

After drinking the fetal pills easily, Wei Qingqing rested for a while like a catastrophe, and saw the stewards who had to talk back and forth every month.

So the morning is over. I didn't see the eldest princess's imperial physician coming.

"Miss."

Wei Qingqing was thinking about whether to go to the eldest princess to say goodbye, after all, Ming'er was the day she agreed to invite someone to enjoy the morning plum, and now the Duchess is not there, although the eldest princess took over part of the right to feed in the morning, but the plum garden is not far from the courtyard where Rong Che lives, and it has already been clearly stated that it is given to Rong Che's territory, and he has to make some arrangements.

But as soon as the talent came out of the courtyard, he saw someone coming with a small boxy cage.

The cage is covered with a black cloth that makes it difficult to see what's inside.

Wei Qingqing looked at the person who came, and the person who came immediately smiled and saluted her and reported her identity: "Slave Ah Zhan, follow the order of the second master, and send you this thing in an urgent manner for eight hundred miles." ”

"Second master?"

When Lan Zhi heard this, she immediately looked at Wei Qingqing and covered her mouth and laughed.

"Is the second master okay lately?" Wei Qingqing looked at Ah Zhan, and looked at the cage curiously.

"The second master is fine, but he is just worried about the young lady and has lost a lot of weight." Ah Zhan said with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, the subordinates of the Wanqiu Courtyard all blushed and laughed lowly, Wei Qingqing glanced at the flamboyant Ah Zhan, and deliberately said in a cold tone: "If the second master is emaciated, it is also the people around you who serve him improperly, and he should be punished!" ”

Ah Zhan had already heard of the reputation of this young lady, who was known for being easy to get along with and generous, so he didn't panic, and only said: "It's the slave's fault, the slave will definitely be punished when he returns to the second master this time, just ask the young lady not to be angry, otherwise the second master will know, and the slave will have to be whipped." ”

Lan Zhi couldn't laugh: "I didn't expect the second master to have such a slippery head by your side." ”

"That's the connivance of the second master, it's good to treat the slave." Ah Zhan smiled, the contents of the cage couldn't wait to come out.

Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted to the cage, Wei Qingqing couldn't help but lean over, Ah Zhan saw this, and hurriedly opened the curtain, only to see that the cage was actually a fluffy puppy wagging its tail and sticking out its tongue.

However, this puppy was also born cute, with a fluffy yellow coat, a round face, pointed ears, and a happy look at Wei Qingqing in front of him, his little tail was about to be broken.

"This is the second master from a merchant in the country of Wa bought it, saying that this kind of dog is very sticky and obedient, the second master said that the young lady is weak and has no one to protect her, so he bought this dog to protect the young lady with a lot of money." Ah Zhan smiled and showed a mouthful of white teeth.

Wei Qingqing seemed to be able to think of Rong Che's handsome face full of banter, the ladies of other families are not meek cats, but also some birds and finches, he is good, call himself a beautiful girl like a flower, raise a dog.

"A name?" Wei Qingqing asked.

"Not yet, waiting for the young lady to give me a name." Ah Zhan said.

Wei Qingqing thought for a moment and stared at Ah Zhan: "Why don't you call Ah Xing?" ”

"Ah Xing?" Ah Zhan thought it was weird. But I couldn't see anything wrong, so I had to respond.

Wei Qingqing asked Lan Zhi to carry Ah Xing back to the Wanqiu Courtyard this time, and she didn't see the corner of the Wanqiu Courtyard at all, with a pair of eyes that were both a little envious and lonely.

"Your Highness?"

When the maid on one side saw the eldest princess turn around to leave, she couldn't help but say, "Didn't you come to talk to the young lady about the imperial doctor?" ”

"Uncle is still in the study?" The eldest princess asked, once upon a time, Rong Hai also gave her some pets, but she hated Rong Che very much at the time, so those pets were in her hands, and they died within a few days, and then Rong Hai didn't give her these living creatures again.

It wasn't until she saw Wei Qingqing today that she thought that if there was no misunderstanding at that time, would she be so happy when she received those things?

Between husband and wife, she has had such a little interest, but she has never enjoyed it like Wei Qingqing.

Ah Xing......

The eldest princess chuckled, Wei Qingqing dared to do this, and she was sure that Rong Che would spoil her.

Walking to the door of Rong Hai's study, the imperial doctor inside was constantly wiping his sweat, and when he saw her coming, he hurriedly got up and confessed: "Please forgive Your Highness for Weichen's incompetence, shallow medical skills, and can't cure the horse." ”

"Since the medical skills are shallow, it is better to go back to the palace earlier. You're a shallow doctor. However, there are doctors in our Guogong Mansion who are not shallow in medical skills, and the bodies of the people in the Guogong Mansion do not need you to bother. Rong Hai is still elegant and gentle, but his tone cannot be refused.

The eldest princess's face tensed a little, and she waved her hand to send the imperial doctor down, before she looked at Rong Hai: "It's lunch time, don't you go to my house to eat together?" ”

"I'm going to see my father in a while, and I won't be able to dine with the princess." Rong Hai said calmly, looking at the eldest princess, there was no more emotion in his eyes.

"What's wrong with you?" The eldest princess couldn't help but ask her, and the other people in the room also retreated with interest.

The eldest princess's eyes were already filled with tears, she had been proud for so many years, she felt that she was now in front of Rong Hai, she had compromised again and again, she didn't understand why Rong Hai just couldn't change like before.

Rong Hai faced her tears, and his heart was still as calm as water.

"Your Highness is hungry, let's go eat early."

"Pony ...... Ronghai. The eldest princess called his name, took a few steps forward jerkyly, stretched out her hand, and for the first time took the initiative to lean into Rong Hai's arms.

Unexpectedly, Rong Hai moved to the side.

"Father must have waited for a long time, so I won't accompany the princess anymore." After Rong Hai finished speaking lightly, he walked away.

The eldest princess stood in place awkwardly, holding her palms tightly, she had clearly felt the love that Rong Hai had for her. There really isn't any.

"Pony, when you step out of this door now, you are really ruthless with me, do you really want to do this?" The eldest princess choked up and asked him: "You and I have been married for so many years, I admit that I have always misunderstood you, and now I have come back to you with a low level, what else do you want me to do so that I don't have such a relationship with me?" "Chinese

When Rong Hai heard her words, he was even more relieved and smiled lightly: "Her Royal Highness the princess is tired." ”

With that, he stepped out of the door without hesitation and left.

The eldest princess hurriedly turned around, but only saw the indifferent back he left: "Is it for Yan Ruan?" Are you ruthless to me because you're in love with her? ”

Rong Hai couldn't hear her low murmur, but the eldest princess acquiesced to this fact.

But she will never allow it, she has already been inferior, she has let go of all her pride, let go of her self-esteem that has been high for many years to redeem him, she will never allow it. He is ruthless to himself!

"Your Highness......"

"Ming'er's banquet, have you all arranged?" The eldest princess asked.

"Yes, it's all arranged, and the people you posted will come over." The maid replied cautiously.

The eldest princess wiped away her tears, straightened her neck, and said coldly: "Make people stare at Wei Qingqing, her elbow will only turn outward, she must help Yan Ruan, tomorrow's matter, this palace must be foolproof." ”

"Yes!"

Wei Qingqing still came to see the eldest princess in the afternoon, and after briefly discussing the Ming'er banquet, she came back, but she recalled the eldest princess who had withdrawn her plain dress in the past and began to wear red and green in the afternoon, and her thoughts were complicated.

"The slave maid thinks that the eldest princess's dress is a lot better-looking, but she looks like a cookie-cutter beauty, but she has lost her cold and noble temperament before." Lan Zhi walked behind Wei Qingqing and muttered.

Lan Sheng only looked at Wei Qingqing: "The slave maid feels that the eldest princess has suddenly changed her dress, and it seems that she has changed her personality." ”

"Hmm."

Wei Qingqing couldn't help but think of the fight between the aunts in the back house of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and even if she was disfigured, she still wanted to dress up and look good and only hoped that her husband would take a more look, and she knew better what the eldest princess's move meant.

Once a woman puts all her thoughts on a man, jealousy will grow like a weed in spring, and will gradually devour people's reason. Turn the heart that was originally not beautiful into an empty wasteland.

Tomorrow, it seems that it will be a Hongmen feast.

Even if he was uneasy, the morning plum banquet still came.

Wei Qingqing arranged everything, Zhu Zhu was the first to arrive, and she also brought her cousins with her.

Wei Qingqing arranged for them to sit and talk in the Wanqiu Courtyard now, until she heard that Xu Yao and a group of young ladies who did not have much contact with the capital also entered the mansion, but Chi Yang could not come, so Wei Qingqing took them to the Early Plum Garden.

The eldest princess changed into a silver vermilion flower-sprinkled dress today, which was noble and gorgeous. The jet-black bun is full of beautiful hairpins, red lips and eyebrows, which makes people ignore her age and bring out her beauty.

came early, Yan Ruan, who was sitting alone by the lake drinking tea, was still wearing a narrow-sleeved skirt sprinkled with blue flowers, and only two or three beads were seen on her bun, but the whole person was fresh and elegant, completely different from the greased warblers and whitewashed warblers. The whole body is full of the elegance and beauty that naturally comes from talented women.

Wei Qingqing looked at her, and she also looked at Wei Qingqing, showing a kind smile.

Wei Qingqing smiled back, this smile happened to fall in the eyes of the eldest princess, and the eldest princess was even more convinced that Wei Qingqing was eating inside and out, and wanted to match Yan Ruan and Rong Hai, without putting herself as the eldest princess in her eyes!

"The banquet has begun, why don't the second brother and sister go and cut a few plum blossoms to insert the bottle?" The eldest princess looked at Wei Qingqing.

Lan Zhi was anxious when she heard this: "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, it is winter now, the weather is very cold, our young lady has not recovered from a serious illness, how can we ask her to cut plum blossoms in person, not as good as a slave maid......"

"Is there a place for you to speak, little girl?"

The maid beside the eldest princess immediately scolded.

Lan Zhi gritted her teeth, and Xu Yao, who was holding the eldest princess, immediately said: "If you are sick, you should move more and keep it in the house all day long, when will this disease be cured?" Young lady, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, this is for your own good, you can't help but appreciate it, otherwise I'm afraid it will really make people think that you, a brother-in-law, really dare to bully your sister-in-law in the house. ”

Zhu Zhu looked at Xu Yao, who was fighting with people, and stepped forward to take Wei Qingqing's hand: "I'll go with you." ”

"The eldest princess didn't let you go, you are in a hurry to be a good person, as if the eldest princess bullied the young lady." Xu Yao said immediately.

"You ......" Zhu Zhu gritted his teeth, looked at Xu Yao's proud appearance, and smiled: "Zhu Zhu didn't dare to think like this, but I heard that Cousin Xu's good things are coming, and as a cousin, I should also pick a few plum blossoms to congratulate my cousin." ”

As soon as these words fell, Xu Yao's face instantly intersected black and white, which was extremely ugly.

Wei Qingqing hadn't heard anything good about Xu Yao, and turned her head to see Zhu Zhu winking at her, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and said to the eldest princess: "That's the case." Then Qingqing went to pick plum blossoms for the princess. With that, he left with Zhu Zhu.

The eldest princess sent Wei Qingqing away, and glanced at Xu Yao again: "There is a pavilion ahead, why don't Miss Xu help the palace entertain guests and entertain the ladies who come to the palace today?" ”

Of course, Xu Yao was very happy, and hurriedly beckoned everyone to go to the pavilion that the eldest princess said.

After everyone left, the eldest princess walked straight to Yan Ruan.

Yan Ruan also seemed to have known for a long time that she was coming for herself today.

"I told the colt to let him admit you into the house, but he didn't want to." The eldest princess smiled and sat down in front of Yan Ruan, but when Yan Ruan heard this, she didn't have the shame and disbelief that the eldest princess imagined, she just looked at her with a faint smile, as if she was looking at a joke.

"Aren't you angry? As far as I know, you like to be a colt very much, and you like to not marry for so many years, and you have become an old girl. You must be very happy to have the opportunity to be by his side. The eldest princess asked lightly sarcastically.

Yan Ruan just looked at her: "Be a confidant who can't always be around." It's far better than staying on an empty shell with no feelings. ”

The eldest princess was instantly enraged: "Are you also worthy of being his confidant?" ”

"Whether he is worthy or not, he naturally knows." Yan Ruan smiled lightly.

The eldest princess looked at her like this, her clenched palms trembled slightly, but she quickly suppressed her anger and smiled: "Confidant? It's just nice to say, but if it's not good, it's just like those prostitutes in the green house, but it's just a plaything for Israel's servants. ”

Yan Ruan didn't expect the noble princess to say such vulgar words in her mouth, so she smiled lightly and didn't answer her words.

The eldest princess also realized her gaffe, but the more she realized it, the more she felt that she was inferior to Yan Ruan, which made her even more angry.

"Why don't you pour tea for Mr. Yan?"

The eldest princess took a deep breath and looked at Yan Ruan with a smile: "This is the tea I gave you, and what I gave is equivalent to what I gave to you." ”

The clear tea soup was poured into Yan Ruan's tea cup, Yan Ruan watched a few tea leaves slowly sink, his fingers stroked the tea cup, and looked up at the eldest princess: "Do you really want to do this?" ”

"Mr. Yan is a smart man." The eldest princess smiled, but there was a murderous intent in her eyes that could not be concealed.

She hates Yan Ruan, Yan Ruan is not dead, and the anger in her heart will never subside.

Yan Ruan looked at the teacup and sighed slightly: "I used to think that the person he likes about you must be outstanding, but today, I really regret it, I should have worked harder back then." Or send Li Yu directly to the princess. ”

Hearing the word Li Yu, the only remaining reason in the eldest princess's heart had completely disappeared.

The corners of Yan Ruan's mouth were hooked, he looked at the eldest princess, and without saying a word, he picked up the teacup and drank it directly.

The eldest princess watched her finish the tea, and was just about to order someone to help her down, when she saw Xu Yao running over.

"Your Highness, you see that these are a few plum blossoms that I just picked, blooming in a high place, and the courtiers wasted a lot of effort to pick them." Xu Yao flattered the eldest princess, but she didn't notice the eldest princess's impatience at all.

"This plum blossom...... It's really good-looking......" Yan Ruan was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, and he raised his hand to touch the plum blossom in Xu Yao's hand.

Xu Yao was startled by her, and subconsciously wanted to push her away, but Yan Ruan took two steps back and fell directly into the cold lake behind him.

"Ah——!h

Xu Yao was startled, but the eldest princess was very calm, it seemed better if she fell into the water and died.

But before she could say anything, she dragged Xu Yao down, and saw a familiar figure jumping down quickly!
