Wei Susu, who was in the center of the rumors, appeared in the Prime Minister's Mansion to participate in this flower-viewing banquet held in the name of the old lady and Miss Rong, which was enough to be eye-catching.

And now there is such a carriage......

There was something good and couldn't help but stand at the door and quietly ask, "Which lady is this?" ”

Zhang Jiao heard the discussion outside, and her back couldn't help but straighten up, and she pretended to get out of the carriage.

But she grew up in Niujia Village since she was a child, although her father is a teacher, but the family is surrounded by walls, although she doesn't have to do too much housework since she was a child, but she has never enjoyed being served, so she doesn't know what Miss Everybody is like, but one thing she knows is that she doesn't want to nest in a poor Niujia village anymore, and find a farmer to be a husband in the future!

The clothes on her body are a tael of silver and an inch of smoke and clouds of exquisite fang, and the hairpin on the bun is also the head of a complete set of gold and gemstones, which is dazzling, except for the darkened skin, there is no place on the body that is not rich.

Everyone looked at her and thought it was the eldest lady who had just been picked up by a big family.

And Zhang Jiao saw the concerned eyes around her, and she was even more sure that she would never go back to Niujia Village again!

"Little Lotus." Zhang Jiao raised her hand out of the corner of her eyes, and a clever and sensible girl on the side immediately stepped forward to help her forward.

Some young ladies immediately stepped forward to talk to her and asked her which young lady she was, Zhang Jiao was naturally willing to associate with them, and when she talked about her background, she only mentioned her surname Zhang, and asked nothing else.

Everyone thought she was Mrs. Zhang's kinship, although the Zhang family declined. But Rong Ruizhang is out of luck, this Zhang Jiao is dressed so richly today, and everyone thinks that she is a rich Prime Minister's Mansion.

But Mrs. Zhang can't take care of these things now.

She sat high at the top of the flower hall, beside which was the well-dressed Rong Jinning, and the next one who stood respectfully was Wei Susu.

"This matter should have been mentioned by my father and mother, but my father was found by the prince early in the morning, and my mother was suddenly caught by a cold last night. I'm afraid that coming here will disturb your interest in the Hundred Flowers Banquet, so I asked Su Su to propose marriage on my behalf, I don't know if the old lady is willing? Wei Susu endured the sarcastic or contemptuous gazes of the people around her, and said softly and decently.

Mrs. Zhang was naturally willing, she didn't expect her daughter to climb any higher doors, and it was already a great thing to be able to marry to the General's Mansion as a wife.

"But how did the old man hear that some time ago, the second son of your mansion had already decided on a family affair?" Mrs. Zhang is naturally willing in her heart, but she is not stupid, the General's Mansion is now going to marry Rong Jinning, she has ulterior motives, although her daughter's reputation is ruined, but she is also the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she must not be a concubine.

"My father set up a family affair for the second brother because he was busy with official business, and he didn't know that the second brother and the eldest lady were in love. Now that I know, I naturally don't mean to wronged the eldest lady. has already retired the second brother's family business. Wei Susu was patient and explained with a light smile.

But Rong Jinning pouted: "Since he asked to marry me, he should also come in person." ”

There was a burst of uncontrollable laughter around him, how could a man come to the door in person about courting?

Old Madam Zhang also looked embarrassed because of Rong Jinning's ignorance of the rules, and secretly glanced at her before looking at Wei Susu: "Since the General's Mansion is sincere, the old body is of course an adult's beauty." ”

is still the beauty of adults, everyone passed their eyes in private, and the messy matter between Jinning and Wei Qiongwei was already spread throughout the capital, who doesn't know?

Mrs. Zhang and Wei Susu are still pretending here.

Rong Ruizhang, who was not far from the flower hall, heard the news, and his face was also very ugly.

Fang Zijiao, who had just arrived on the side, thought about it and laughed: "Congratulations to Xiangye, Sister Ling has a good son-in-law, this is a good thing." In order to congratulate, the grass people are willing to give 10,000 taels of silver to the eldest lady as a congratulatory gift, and please don't dislike it. ”

Hearing 10,000 taels, Rong Ruizhang looked at Fang Zijiao's eyes a little deeper, casually it was so generous, it can be seen that this Fang Zijiao has a lot of silver in his hand.

"Zijiao is polite." Rong Ruizhang laughed.

Fang Zijiao's heart jumped, Rong Ruizhang suddenly called his name so intimately, did he have to recruit himself? That's not good, he came here today just to ensure that the matter between Rong Jinning and Wei Qiongwei can be resolved smoothly.

Rong Ruizhang is ruthless and insatiable, if he is attached to him, not only will there be no hope of glory and wealth, but all his silver treasury will be swallowed by him.

"The grass people are just untouchables, where do you dare to be called so." Fang Zijiao hurriedly took two steps back and bowed, and said with a smile: "Today's banquet in the Prime Minister's Mansion, I want to come to Xiangye is very busy, the grass people came to congratulate today, and they also brought the courtesy of the Wei family in Yuqian Lane, and now that they know that the Prime Minister's Mansion is happy, the grass people will go back to the Wei family, and they don't dare to disturb the Xiang Ye anymore." ”

Rong Ruizhang couldn't see what he meant, and he kept mentioning the Wei family......

Rong Ruizhang snorted coldly in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, just waiting for Fang Zijiao to leave, he immediately recruited someone: "Go and invite Fang Ye to sit in Lixiang Pavilion." ”

When the little girl heard the words 'Lixiang Pavilion', her eyes widened: "The eldest lady has just made a family ...... with the General's Mansion."

"Idiot." Rong Ruizhang took a sip, what kind of family is the General's Mansion, no one knows better than him, it's good that the General's Mansion doesn't come to marry Rong Jinning, he is still a bit of a treacherous and cunning Wei Rampant, but as soon as the reputation of the General's Mansion is damaged, they will come, even if they marry the eldest sister and go back, with the eldest sister's pig brain, if the General's Mansion turns back, he will deduct a basin on his head.

Instead of letting Rong Jinning go out and make a fool of him, it is better to let her marry someone who seems to be lowly but can hold it in the palm of his hand!

Around the corner, when Liuli heard the news, she was also stunned for a while, and then immediately sent someone to deliver the news to Wei Qingqing.

Wei Qingqing put away the clairvoyant mirror. Listening to Lan Sheng's reply, he leaned against the window clearly: "As expected." ”

"Miss already knows?" Lan Zhi asked in surprise.

"Rong Xiang was about to be driven crazy by those 100,000 taels, Fang Zijiao sent him such a dazzling ingot of silver, how could he let go?" Wei Qingqing said it, and didn't continue, both he and Rong Ruizhang could predict what the situation would be after Rong Jinning married into the General's Mansion.

Although she really wanted to see the General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion dog-eat-dog, but after thinking about it, it was better to let Fang Zijiao, a bloodsucking worm, suck Rong Ruizhang first, as for the General's Mansion, knowing that Rong Ruizhang was standing in the Four Princes' Party, sooner or later she would have to bite him!

Just thinking about it, Guo Qing had already come over outside.

"How?"

"That man seems to have escaped the catastrophe last time, and he told the eldest princess that the second master was going to kill him, and this time it was the eldest prince who asked the six princes to settle this man. However, the six princes seemed to know that this man had bad intentions, so they listened to them, and every word was that the six princes were testing this person. Guo Qing sat down, poured himself a cup of tea, and then glanced at Wei Qingqing: "They also mentioned you." ”

"Miss?" Lan Zhi frowned: "What does Miss Sixth Prince Ti do?" ”

"Isn't Second Master Rong's heart treasure Miss now?" Guo Qing looked at Wei Qingqing playfully, but Wei Qingqing was unmoved, still looking at him lightly: "And then?" ”

"That man proposed that the sixth prince take you away, so as to avenge Second Master Rong for catching him, it seems that the eldest princess also has this intention." When Guo Qing said this, his tone was not as relaxed as Fang Cai, Wei Qingqing would marry into the Guogong Mansion sooner or later, and when she married, the eldest princess would be her sister-in-law. If the eldest princess really has such a thought, Wei Qingqing's trouble will be indispensable.

However, Wei Qingqing was not as worried as them, the eldest princess would have to reconcile with Rong Hai sooner or later, and Rong Hai was not a fool in her opinion.

"What else did you say besides me?"

"The sixth prince seems to have noticed that someone is eavesdropping, and I don't dare to stay for a long time." Guo Qing replied honestly: "This sixth prince is not very old, but his mind is very delicate. ”

Wei Qingqing also saw that Qin Liangye was unusual, but Rong Ruizhang was now close to the four princes everywhere, which means that the four princes must be the ones who will ascend to the throne in the future. So if she has the opportunity, she still has to inquire about Rong Che's thoughts as soon as possible, otherwise once the fourth prince ascends the throne, Rong Ruizhang's power will be even greater, and with his character of retribution, he will not let go of himself and the Guogong Mansion.

"The fourth prince has a staff member, known as Yang Daxian, with a goatee, in his thirties, and he bothered Guo Daxia to run and tell the Yang Daxian that he said that Prime Minister Rong's servant fell in love with Xiaocui in the drunken Red Mansion and planned to redeem her as a concubine in the near future." Wei Qingqing vaguely remembered that when she collected information for Rong Ruizhang, she had checked this goatee. Although he is a staff member of the Four Princes, his family background is not rich, and he is even more miserable with Xiao Cui of the drunken Red Mansion.

Xiao Cui admired him, and sold himself in the Qinglou for him to earn silver for him to show his face in front of the four princes.

Guo Qing didn't know what Wei Qingqing was thinking, but looking at her half-squinting and calculating, he knew that Rong Ruizhang was in trouble again.

"I'll do it."

As soon as Guo Qing finished speaking, he heard footsteps at the door, and without thinking about it, he jumped out of the window directly.

As soon as he left, the door was pushed open.

Wei Qingqing looked at Qin Liangye, who was dressed in a sky blue brocade robe, and naturally saluted, before asking him: "Why did His Royal Highness the Sixth come here, did he go to the wrong place?" ”

"Your Highness just knew that you were here, and you scared Your Highness into the water last time. Your Highness hasn't settled accounts with you yet. Qin Liangye was playing tricks, and as soon as he came in, he sat down by himself, and glanced at Lan Sheng: "Don't you pour tea for His Royal Highness?" ”

Lan Sheng looked at Wei Qingqing, and when he saw Wei Qingqing nodding, he stepped forward and poured tea.

Qin Liangye drank the tea with satisfaction, and listened to Wei Qingqing: "Last time it was the fault of the courtier, I don't know that His Highness is timid, and I ask His Highness to forgive me, but since His Highness likes it here, the courtiers will give this place to His Highness." ”

Qin Liangye almost choked, this ugly monster dared to say that he was cowardly.

Qin Liangye raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Wei Qingqing before saying, "Who said I like it here, who let you go?" You are so unruly, I can punish you believe it or not, even if Rong Che comes, he can't protect you. Besides, he won't be able to come in time today. ”

"The second master is a big man, so he can't revolve around me." Wei Qingqing pretended not to hear his temptation, and said: "But I heard that there is a lively scene in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the courtiers are about to go over, if His Highness doesn't like this wing, the courtiers will retreat." ”

"Lively?" Qin Liangye took the teacup in his hand for a moment, and immediately snorted: "His Royal Highness is also about to go to see the excitement, you just happen to follow me by the way, let's go." ”

As he spoke, he got up and shook his folding fan all the way forward.

Wei Qingqing shook his head helplessly at his back, and he jumped in casually when he gave him a set, and he didn't know whether it was unintentional or deliberate.

Out of the inn, Qin Liangye took the lead and stepped on his beautiful jujube red horse. Wei Qingqing also got into the carriage, but as soon as Qin Liangye's carriage ran forward, Wei Qingqing's carriage turned around and went back to Yuqian Lane, so angry that Qin Liangye was about to follow when he drove his horse, but he really heard everyone in front of him talking about the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Your Highness, it seems that something really happened to the Prime Minister's Mansion." The little guy on one side reminded.

"Of course I do." Qin Liangye snorted, but he was angry that he could be calculated by Wei Qingqing, which was too embarrassing!

"The eldest princess's ...... What to do? He also plans to attack Miss Wei......"

"Find someone to keep an eye on him!" Qin Liangye's eyes suddenly cooled a little: "I want the imperial sister to see clearly what kind of person this man is." ”

The little guy understood what he meant. Dingding nodded: "The slave understands, so let's arrange it." ”

Qin Liangye hummed, looked at the carriage that Wei Qingqing had left, and then took the reins and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion.

And in the carriage.

Lan Sheng opened the secret compartment next to the carriage, took tea and snacks from it, and couldn't help but secretly marvel at the practicality of Wei Qingqing's carriage.

When the people of the Four Seasons brought this carriage early this morning, although Lan Sheng also recognized that the carriage was full of excellent pear blossom wood inside and out, it was covered with plain blue draperies, and it looked very low-key. Inside, I realized that the carriage was more spacious than it looked from the outside.

Not only that, but all kinds of dark compartments, not only can you put tea and snacks, but also silk handkerchiefs and even spare clothes, and even the cushion inside can be moved, a little splicing, and you can sleep in the carriage.

"What's wrong with the second master?" Wei Qingqing didn't care about Lan Sheng Lan Zhi's gaze, and asked softly.

"With Han Xianzi here, the second master will definitely be fine." Lan Zhi smiled and said it, blinked and asked Wei Qingqing: "If Miss is worried, the slave maid will go again?" ”

"Let's take a trip." Wei Qingqing took a sip of tea lightly and said quietly: "I can't keep watchful of the widow." ”

Lan Zhi almost choked to death with her own saliva, Lan Sheng couldn't cry or laugh, and told Wei Qingqing about Han Xianzi.

"Mr. Han is quite accomplished in medical skills, it is not an exaggeration to say that he can come back to life, it is also a coincidence that he was able to follow the master at the beginning, but Mr. Han is a heavy promise, and he has also been by the side of the master for many years, as long as he has a breath of air, he will never let the master have an accident." Lan Sheng looked at Wei Qingqing with a smile: "Of course, I won't ask Miss to be a widow." ”

"That's good."

Wei Qingqing said lightly, so she didn't mention it anymore, only let the carriage go around, and then went back to Fang Cai's inn, and continued to go up to the private room on the fourth floor to watch the excitement.

But this time, as soon as Wei Qingqing raised her clairvoyant mirror, she saw a wonderful scene.

"Auntie, Jiaojiao has finally returned to you."

As soon as Zhang Jiao saw Mrs. Zhang, she choked up and knelt down.

Old Madam Zhang was stunned by her shout, Rong Jinning was 'arranged' by Rong Ruizhang to go to Lixiang Pavilion at this moment, and she was not here, so there was no one to question loudly.

Wei Susu's hand holding the teacup also stiffened, raised his head to look at Zhang Jiao's face, and then looked at Mrs. Zhang, between her eyebrows, there was indeed a hint of look. Could it be ......

"Nonsense, whose lady is this, don't invite out yet!"

Rong Ruizhang stepped into the hall and glared at Mama Qin fiercely.

Mama Qin was also frightened, came back to her senses, and immediately commanded someone to pull Zhang Jiao, but Zhang Jiao choked up and said: "A-Niang can not recognize Jiaojiao, Jiaojiao didn't plan to live anymore, but now that she sees A-Niang, Jiaojiao can also go to the underworld to have an explanation with her father." After speaking, he kowtowed three times to Mrs. Zhang.

Everyone listened to her three thumps, and then saw that her forehead was bleeding, and they immediately started talking.

There are still some old people who remember that Mrs. Zhang had a relationship with her brother, and Mrs. Zhang turned her head to marry Rong Ruizhang's father before she retired from her brother, which also caused a storm in the capital.

"You...... Wait......"

Mrs. Zhang listened to the people around her actually mention what happened decades ago, how could she let Zhang Jiao leave so easily, if Zhang Jiao was used by someone with a heart to say something, wouldn't she be too late?

Zhang Jiao reluctantly looked back at her: "A-Niang." Don't be sad, Daddy didn't want Jiaojiao to come to you before he died, it was Jiaojiao who felt guilty day and night, and felt that it was against filial piety to not be able to do filial piety in front of her biological mother, so she found it herself. ”

The young ladies who entered the door with her just now were also so shocked that their jaws dropped, but seeing that Zhang Jiao was dressed so richly, and her father died and only her only daughter was left, wouldn't she have a very rich dowry?

Thinking of this, someone in the crowd already had an idea.

Mrs. Zhang loves money, but she also dominates the moment when she is not greedy for money, she has been stripped of her seal, if the archway of chastity is gone......

Old Madam Zhang didn't dare to think about it anymore, she only stared at Zhang Jiao, and squeezed out the words from between her teeth: "Who is your father?" What does it have to do with me? How do you come up and confess your relatives indiscriminately? ”

"My father is Zhang Nan, doesn't A-Niang remember? This is still a token of your love affair with your father. As she spoke, Zhang Jiao took out a pair of mandarin duck rings from her arms: "The ring is also engraved with your maiden name and father's words, and your maiden name is ......."

"Mama Qin, go take a look."

Mrs. Zhang interrupted Zhang Jiao's words, she couldn't remember what happened decades ago, but she did love each other with the clan brother who had been married, but it was a pity that the clan brother was destitute in the middle of the road, and later met Rong Ruizhang's father, so she broke the marriage contract by herself, and let her father force the clan brother's family to shut up. 、

But whether there was an exchange of family tokens, she really doesn't remember.

Either way, the rings can't be kept.

Mama Qin understood her mind best, and immediately stepped forward to get the ring in Zhang Jiao's hand, but Zhang Jiao seemed to have been prepared, and held the ring tightly in her hand: "Since A-Niang refuses to recognize Jiaojiao, then this pair of rings will be left for Jiaojiao as a memorial, Daddy, he is dead after all." ”

"Old Madam Zhang, this kid is also pitiful." On one side, a lady who coveted the rich dowry behind Zhang Jiao spoke.

The ladies in high positions naturally saw through Mrs. Zhang's thoughts, and were silent, and when they saw this greedy little lady speak, they all laughed secretly and kept silent.

Rong Ruizhang was so angry, he looked at Mrs. Zhang, who was speechless with a white face, and said in a deep voice: "My mother is innocent, where did you come from, and who dared to slander my mother's innocence!" If you don't tell the truth now, I will have to send you to prison and be punished! ”

This threat frightened Zhang Jiao's body and shook it.

"That's right, you quickly confessed the truth!" Mama Qin also hurriedly responded: "Otherwise, the torture equipment in the damp prison is not something that you can afford as a weak woman." ”

"It turns out that A-Niang sees me like this." Zhang Jiao choked up and looked at the indifferent Mrs. Zhang, saying that it was impossible not to be afraid, especially when facing Rong Ruizhang, but she had already been psychologically prepared, rather than go back to Niujia Village to marry a peasant man, serve her in-laws every day to cook, wash and take care of the children, she would rather die!

Rong Ruizhang saw that she didn't eat oil and salt, and he wanted to say more, so he heard a voice that made him very unhappy.
