When I returned home, the north wind suddenly blew again. Seeing that there were no pedestrians on the road, Ye Han simply wrapped Ruan Qingzhi in a cloak and got out of the car, and slipped back to Xifang Garden through the corner gate.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw the two grandmothers from the palace sitting in the hall, and Ruan Biyun was also there.

When they looked at each other, the three people in the hall were shocked.

Mama Cao stood up angrily and asked in a trembling voice: "Where did you come from, dare to trespass into the boudoir of the county lord of Qingyang!" ”

Ye Han didn't answer, he turned the screen with Ruan Qingzhi in his arms, and after making sure that there was no cold wind rushing in, he gently put her down, took off his cloak and put it on the shelf, and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter with those people outside?" Do you want to kill it? ”

The two grandmothers heard it outside, and their faces were as white as earth in an instant.

Why is this another one who wants to kill? Is it also a guard of the Prime Minister's Mansion? loves to kill people so much, the prime minister usually uses human flesh for cooking, right?

Thinking about it like this, the fried pork ribs and large meat buns that I ate at noon suddenly churned in my stomach.

Fortunately, Ruan Qingzhi's voice soon sounded in the screen: "Don't." ”

The two grandmothers breathed a sigh of relief, but saw Ruan Qingzhi turn the screen and walk out, and continued with an indifferent expression: "...... Ask before you kill. ”

"County Lord......" Mama Cao knelt down as soon as her legs were weak, "We ...... We didn't do anything, you can't kill people at every turn! ”

Ruan Qingzhi ignored her and frowned at Ruan Biyun: "Why are you here?" Isn't it kneeling in the ancestral hall? ”

"Sister, he," Ruan Bijun timidly pointed at Ye Han, "...... He's the night...... His Royal Highness King Li? ”

Ruan Qingzhi didn't answer, looked at her deeply, walked to the hall and sat down: "Say, what are you doing in my house?" Where's my girl? What about the guards? ”

The two grandmothers peeked at Ye Han, and then looked at Ruan Biyun's face, and then realized that the man who was scolded by them as a "madman" just now was His Royal Highness King Li, who killed people without blinking.

That's really killing!

The two of them trembled even more, and they couldn't kneel steadily, so they had to lie down.

Although Ruan Biyun didn't lie down, her face turned slightly pale with fright, stiffened her slender neck, and looked at Ye Han calmly: "Your Highness, I'm ......"

Ye Han's face was gloomy, and he didn't look at her: "Second Miss, you haven't answered Qingzhi's question yet." ”

The voice was faintly familiar. Ruan Bijun finally remembered that His Royal Highness King Li knew her, so the self-introduction link could be omitted.

So, answer their questions?

Ruan Biyun hesitated for a moment, reluctantly turned to look at Ruan Qingzhi again, and then suddenly stared at her eyes: "Sister, you-"

Ruan Qingzhi followed her gaze and looked down, only to realize that her clothes were wrinkled badly, and the ribbon around her waist was loose, looking embarrassed.

She was immediately embarrassed, and immediately turned her head to glare at Ye Han and grinded her teeth.

Ye Han touched his nose with an innocent expression.

Ruan Qingzhi glanced at him fiercely, and then still looked at Ruan Biyun, his expression returned to cold: "What's wrong?" Is my question difficult to answer? ”

Ruan Biyun was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look at Ye Han, and then lowered her eyes hurriedly and gently: "Sister, the two grandmothers are here to teach us the rules." The maidservants and guards in your house are disrespectful to your Majesty...... At this moment, the six of them are kneeling in the ancestral hall, this is what Gongli An's father-in-law meant, not that my father and I can't get along with you. ”

Luan Yin said with a cold face next to him: "Not only do you obstruct it, but Banyue is also disrespectful to the second lady!" Miss, if you don't give us an explanation, you will see the Queen Mother another day, and the slave must mention this matter! ”

Ruan Qingzhi tapped lightly on the corner of the table, casually: "Luan Yin, right?" I command you to go and bring them back to me at once. If they are intact, the matter is over; If any man comes back with wounds, I will ask you to pay back with your life. ”

"Sister!" Ruan Biyun was angry, "How can you ......?"

Ruan Qingzhi looked at her and frowned: "Second Miss doesn't have a bad memory?" Didn't we say we wouldn't be sisters? ”

"Sister," Ruan Biyun's eyes suddenly glistened with tears, "Sister said that if you don't do it, you can not do it?" We have the same blood in our bodies! I know you feel sorry for the minion, but if you don't follow the rules, the slave can't be taught! ”

Ruan Qingzhi didn't look at her, her expression was still cold: "I don't feel sorry for the minion, but my minion can't be bullied by you." What's more, who told you that the soldiers of the Northwest Army can be disposed of like minions? ”

Ruan Biyun was taken aback, and hurriedly looked at Ye Han again: "Your Highness, I didn't know they were ......"

"You know." Ruan Qingzhi ruthlessly exposed her, "I told you last night that those four soldiers were sent by Ye Han to protect me, not some guards. If you don't remember, you have a bad memory. If you didn't hear it at the time, your ears are bad. Miss Ruan Er, the back of the ears and brain damage are not serious diseases, there is nothing to hide, and I don't discriminate against you! ”

Ruan Biyun was so angry that she trembled and couldn't say a word.

Luan Yin was so anxious next to her that Ruan Biyun pushed her out fiercely, shouting: "Go, go!" ”

"Miss, where are you going?" Luan Yin was so anxious that she cried out.

Ruan Qingzhi kindly reminded: "Your young lady means to ask you to go and invite my people back quickly." One step too late, I could have her off on the spot. ”

Luan Yin was suspicious, and seeing that her young lady did not refute, she had to stomp her feet and turn around and run away.

Ruan Qingzhi spread his hands and looked at Ye Han: "Look, am I becoming more and more like a bully?" ”

Ye Han commented pertinently: "Yes." ”

Ruan Biyun raised her head with bright eyes, but saw that Ye Han was looking down at Ruan Qingzhi, with a smile on her eyebrows and a gentle expression.

"Your Highness," Ruan Biyun stepped forward timidly, "It's not that Yun'er deliberately wants to make things difficult for her sister's slaves, but that the moon screamed wildly before, disturbing Gonggong An who came to the palace to deliver the decree. Yun'er was afraid that she would cause trouble, so she asked them all to go to the ancestral hall to hide......"

"Xiao Anzi has been here?" Ruan Qingzhi frowned and interrupted her.

Ruan Biyun said softly: "Yes." Father-in-law An came to see the two grandmothers, and he was very unhappy when he heard that his sister was not in the house. ”

"What did he come to you for?" Ruan Qingzhi looked at the two grandmothers again, "Summoning you back to the palace?" Don't need to teach? ”

Mama Cao trembled and said: "Gonggong An said that three days later, a celebration banquet will be held in the palace for His Royal Highness King Li and you, and the second miss will also go at that time, so the two young ladies will learn etiquette together." ”

Ruan Biyun added on the side: "So, sister, it's not that Yun'er refuses to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days, but the holy edict is important, and I don't dare to disobey it." ”

Ruan Qingzhi and Ye Han glanced at each other and sneered at the same time.

Let's just say that these three people suddenly became angry, it turned out that the emperor supported them!

Of course, Ruan Qingzhi could guess the reason.

The emperor was dissatisfied with her and didn't want her to be a true phoenix, so of course he had to compare Ruan Biyun with her, so that she could know how big the gap between her little pheasant and the real phoenix was.

Ruan Biyun has often been in and out of the palace since she was a child, and she has long been familiar with etiquette. Presumably, in the next three days, she will be punished by the grandmothers for the tragic comparison.

Moreover, there is no suspense, at that so-called "celebration banquet", Master Zhiyin of Guanghua Temple will definitely go.

At that time, if she is determined to be a fake phoenix, her fate will definitely be very miserable.

Ruan Qingzhi smiled deeper when he thought of this, looked at Ruan Biyun, and said with emotion: "Your Majesty is really considerate!" ”

Ruan Biyun also smiled in return, gentle and gentle: "Yes." Yun'er hasn't entered the palace for a long time, and the previous etiquette has almost forgotten, and now I can have the opportunity to learn it again, and I am very happy. ”

As she spoke, she saluted and thanked the two grandmothers, and her posture was very good-looking. It's a pity that the two grandmothers are still kneeling on the ground at this time and can't return the salute, and the situation is a little embarrassing for a while.

Ruan Qingzhi didn't react yet, and Ye Han was already laughing beside him.

Ruan Biyun straightened up with a red face, and was about to blame Ye Han for not laughing at her, but saw that the two grandmothers on the ground trembled even more.

The hall was silent for a moment, and Mama Cao said in a trembling voice: "Please, please rest assured, the slaves and maids don't dare to make things difficult for the county lord, as long as the county lord remembers some basic rules and doesn't make big mistakes." ”

"Get up." Ye Han said with a smile, "Qingzhi is very smart, and it is difficult for her to learn a little etiquette." The king believed that she would learn well and would not be punished. ”

Mama Cao hurriedly said: "The slaves and maids don't dare to punish ......"

Ye Han looked at Ruan Qingzhi with a smile, and asked silently, "Have you scared them?" ”

Ruan Qingzhi winked at him and said with a smile: "The two grandmothers are very kind, so naturally they won't punish me." Your Highness, it's not too early, don't you want to wait for me to leave you for dinner? ”

"Why not?" Ye Han asked rhetorically.

"Of course not!" Ruan Qingzhi put on a serious face, "You are no longer my slave!" I don't have any reason to care about your food anymore! You're going to pay for staying here to eat! ”

Seeing this, Ye Han also followed her example and said with a serious face: "The king can still afford to pay for a meal." Hurry up and let Banyue come back to cook, I think she made the sweet and sour carp. ”

Ruan Qingzhi frowned: "Your face is getting bigger and bigger, not only do you want to eat, but you also dare to order!" ”

Ye Han smiled: "Why do you want to see your own family? I'm not as stingy as you! Tomorrow at noon, you come to the Golden Chestnut Garden, and you can order whatever you want! ”

"You don't give much to others!" Ruan Qingzhi patted the table and said, "The Golden Chestnut Garden is my grandfather's garden, and the cooks are all from the Luan family!" I eat my grandfather's food, do I still want to receive your love? ”

Ruan Biyun heard the "Luan family" on the side, her face suddenly changed, and she stepped forward: "Sister, although the Luan family has always been close to us, it is not our ancestor after all. Let's not mention the word 'grandfather' lightly outside, otherwise we are afraid that we will be suspected of clinging......"

Ruan Qingzhi looked at her and smiled: "Oh." ”

Ruan Biyun lowered her head slightly, and her gaze moved to Ye Han's body very naturally: "Your Highness, although you and your sister are already familiar with each other, but now your identity is different from the past, and I am afraid that it will be rude to stay here for a long time." ”

Ye Han didn't look at her, his fingertips twisted Ruan Qingzhi's sleeves, and said lightly: "Second Miss Ruan knows how to be polite. ”

Ruan Biyun was busy and bowed her head and said, "Don't dare."

Ye Han sneered, full of sarcasm: "Don't dare? This king sees that you are very bold! Otherwise, when this king talks to the county lord, where is your share of interjecting? ”

Ruan Biyun was so frightened that her knees weakened, and she knelt down with a thud.

It was only after her knees hit the ground that she came back to her senses, and her face turned red and she felt humiliated.

In the past, when King Rui came to the mansion, he saw her, and mocked Ruan Qingzhi; Now, in just a few months, the situation has been completely reversed, is this the turn of feng shui?

She didn't believe it!

Ruan Biyun raised her head and burst into tears: "Your Highness, Yun'er has no malice, just because my sister and His Royal Highness have not yet decided to marry, if they come and go too often, I am afraid that my sister's reputation will be hindered!" Your Highness doesn't know what people say is terrifying, like today's thing, if it spreads outside, I don't know how ugly it is, and if the rumors spread ruthlessly, maybe it will affect the marriage......"

"Oh," Ye Han smiled even deeper, "It turns out that you and the fourth child have been in contact too often and hindered your reputation, so you haven't settled down for a long time?" ”

"Your Highness," Ruan Biyun's face turned pale for a moment, "Rui and I ...... His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, there is no ......"

Halfway through the sentence, she herself was stuck.

Not travelling together? Didn't he carry him home? Didn't go to his house to look for him? Didn't meet him at Jinghuayuan?

Those old things can still be denied in front of others, this Li Wang...... Ye Han used to be a house slave in the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he couldn't hide anything from him!

Ruan Biyun felt a burst of despair in her heart, and she didn't know what to cry to make people feel pity, but when she looked up, she saw that Ye Han had already looked away and looked at Ruan Qingzhi gently.

The two looked at each other and smiled, which was extremely dazzling.

Ruan Biyun clasped her hands, her face quickly regained her calm, and even squeezed out a smile, and her mouth was still gentle and gentle: "Sister, since the rules have to be learned sooner or later, it is better to do it sooner rather than later." At this time, it is not too late, so let's first do the etiquette we know and show it to the grandmothers, so that the grandmothers can go back tonight to consider the teachings, and tomorrow they can learn to get twice the result with half the effort. ”

Ruan Qingzhi looked at the sky and agreed: "You have a point. Then please come first! ”

Ruan Biyun smiled slightly and did not refuse.

She is used to seeing scenes, whether it is in the past life or in this life, she is a model among everyone's ladies, and she will naturally not be wrong in terms of etiquette.

Unlike this "sister", she was pampered in her previous life, and she was left in Xifangyuan without anyone to teach her in this life, and she is destined to be a wild girl who doesn't understand the rules.

Although she can't figure out when Ruan Qingzhi learned painting and medicine, Ruan Bijun firmly believes that at least in the compulsory courses of poetry, calligraphy and etiquette, she will win steadily.

At that moment, Ruan Biyun smiled and bowed to the two grandmothers, took a few steps back and walked to the door, and when she took another step, it was already the rule of worshipping the king.

Come in, bow down, say hello, get up, enter the table, feast...... A whole set of actions was done like a smooth flow, and the two grandmothers nodded frequently.

It wasn't until the end of the "retreat" that Ruan Biyun raised her head with a sigh of relief: "Your Highness......"

Ye Han was laughing with Ruan Qingzhi, and he didn't hear her call at all.

However, when Ruan Qingzhi looked up, he happened to catch a glimpse of the little face with apprehension, and threw away a smile: "It's good-looking, it's really good!" ”

Mama Cao hurriedly smiled and said: "The rules of the second lady are worthy of being praised even by the Queen Mother, if it is really proper, there is no problem at all!" ”

Ruan Biyun smiled shyly when she heard this, and when she saw that Ye Han still had no reaction, she said to her grandmother again: "Since Your Majesty ordered us to learn etiquette for the palace banquet, then when the time comes, it will naturally be a banquet to test our 'studies'." At the palace banquet three days later, my sister is the protagonist, and the grandmothers should focus on guiding my sister, and we must be foolproof. ”

Mama Cao agreed again and again, but she didn't dare to take the initiative to speak to Ruan Qingzhi. Ruan Biyun had to take another step forward and call for them: "Sister, you can also try it again." If there's something you don't do well, it doesn't matter, the grandma will point it out! ”

Ruan Qingzhi hesitated for a moment, and slowly stood up with the corner of the table, with a somewhat embarrassed expression on his face: "I'm actually not ...... I just don't know what makes it 'good'. ”

Mama hurriedly smiled: "It's excellent to be like the second lady." ”

Ruan Qingzhi frowned slightly, as if she was a little unwilling: "So, my sister has done her best?" Don't have to practice anymore? ”

Mama Cao hesitated for a long time, and finally nodded selflessly: "Yes, it's already excellent." But don't be discouraged, you can practice for two more days......"

Ruan Qingzhi raised his hand to interrupt her words, with a look of regret: "Alas, I originally thought that I could have someone to practice with me for two days, but I didn't expect that people didn't have to practice at all...... Well, since the etiquette of the second girl is already excellent, let's go back to the ancestral hall and continue to kneel! ”

Ruan Biyun's half smile froze on her face.

At this time, Luan Yin came back with Banyue and them, and immediately rushed in when she heard the words: "What do you mean?" Gonggong An sent me to accompany you to learn etiquette, but you want the young lady to continue to go back to the ancestral hall? ”

Ruan Qingzhi glanced at her, and then looked at Mama Cao: "Shouldn't the maids around us also learn etiquette?" I'm afraid that when the banquet comes, someone will need to be there to serve me, and the maid will lose face, which will be our shame! ”

Mama Cao thought for a while and nodded: "There is indeed such a possibility." ”

Ruan Qingzhi immediately said when she heard this: "The etiquette of the second girl is already excellent, I don't think this Miss Luanyin has learned very well, it is best to let her practice here with us in the next two days." And Feng Ming is also coming! ”

Ruan Biyun was very angry, and at the same time faintly gave birth to a little hope: "Then I ......"

"You, of course, go to the ancestral hall and continue to kneel!" Ruan Qingzhi didn't hesitate at all, and the image of the evil sister still stands.

Ruan Biyun choked on a sentence in her throat, and tears immediately fell: "Your Highness......"

Yehan, who was watching the excitement, was stunned by her and frowned: "What? ”

Ruan Biyun wanted to speak and stopped, rubbing the corners of her clothes with both hands, pitiful.

Ye Han's brows suddenly tightened: "Second Miss, what's wrong with you?" Could it be that your knees are on the legs of the maid, and you won't kneel without the maid? ”

Of course not.

Ruan Bijun cried even harder.

Ye Han impatiently looked away, looked at the door and ordered, "Send Miss Ruan Er back to the ancestral hall!" ”

The guards immediately received the order, broke in, and pestled Ruan Biyun like two mountains on the left and right, and raised his hand at the same time: "Second Miss, please!" ”

Ruan Biyun was so frightened that she didn't dare to cry, and sobbed: "Sister, grandma......"

Mama Cao opened her mouth as if she wanted to ask for mercy, Ruan Qingzhi glanced at her obliquely: "Mama, Your Majesty asked you to teach the rules, but you didn't say that you should be in charge of the family affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion, right?" ”

"Of course, of course," Mama Cao hurriedly bowed her head and smiled, "It's not the slaves' turn to take care of the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion." Since the etiquette of the second lady does not need to be learned, of course she will do what she should do! ”

Ruan Biyun suddenly felt the cruelty of dashing hope.

Thinking of the pain of kneeling in the ancestral hall, she immediately felt that her legs were weak, and she staggered out two steps and knelt on the ground, crying: "Sister, I have been kneeling for a day and a night, will you spare me?" I am also the concubine of the Ruan family, if I break my two legs and become the joke of Shangjing, not only will I be ashamed all over the house at that time, but my reputation will not be good for my sister! Doesn't my sister want someone to accompany her to learn etiquette, okay if I'm here to accompany you? ”

Ruan Qingzhi listened carefully to her plea, thought about it seriously, and then shook her head seriously: "No." ”

"Sister...... Your Highness! Ruan Biyun suddenly cried again and turned to Ye Han: "Your Highness, can you help me ask my sister for a favor?" My sister is very kind by nature, if you help me intercede and give my sister a step, she will definitely be willing to spare me! ”

Ye Han listened to her words, and sure enough, he looked back at Ruan Qingzhi.

Ruan Biyun was immediately overjoyed, but seeing that Ye Han just smiled at Ruan Qingzhi, and persuaded softly: "Don't be angry, it's not worth it." ”

The guard next to him understood the meaning of Ye Han, and immediately turned around and complained: "Miss, Second Miss, she didn't kneel for a day and a night at all!" I only knelt for half an hour last night, and today I don't even have two hours, and the rest of the time I either cry or pretend to be sick, there are so many tricks! ”

Luan Yin was so angry that she almost jumped up, and as soon as the long knife in Cheng Hu's hand next to her lit up, she was immediately honest.

Ruan Biyun suddenly cried and fell to the ground, but she heard the guard say coldly: "If the second lady can't walk, she is willing to serve!" ”

The soldiers of the Northwest Army are not minions, even in the Prime Minister's Mansion, they can still have tempers.

Ruan Biyun suddenly lost her temper, grabbed the corner of the table and struggled to get up, stumbling outside and running out, her back extremely desolate.

Ruan Qingzhi hugged her shoulders and said coldly: "Such a beauty, I am so sorry to be wronged to such a point!" ”

Luan Yin immediately scolded on the side: "You cat crying mouse fake mercy!" ”

Before the words fell, Banyue slapped him.

Ruan Qingzhi frowned, but when he turned around, he saw a red patch on Banyue's face. Looking at the cloud, it's the same.

"What's going on?" She asked, with a sinking face.

Banyue gritted her teeth: "It's not the second lady yet, taking advantage of Xiao Anzi's presence to find an excuse to beat us!" That Xiao Anzi made up her mind to support her today, of course, she is happy to see us suffer! ”

"That's right," Ruan Qingzhi nodded, "As many hits you take, give back Miss Luanyin." Gifts are still exchanged! ”

Xianyun was still hesitating, and the second and third slaps of Banyue had already slapped Luan Yin's face mercilessly.

Ruan Qingzhi spread his hands and said to Ye Han: "Look, how gentle and kind my sister is, and how fierce and unreasonable I am!" Do you want to think again? ”

"Consider what?" The night chill was terrifying.

Ruan Qingzhi looked at him with a smile: "King Rui has fallen, my sister is already reconsidering her future, you have another chance to choose!" ”

Ye Han looked frightened as if she was facing a great enemy: "She reconsiders her future, what does it have to do with me?" I'm not blind! ”
