179. Contradictions
Chi Cai took her out of the water, changed her clothes for her, and saw that her head was slightly damp, so he went to open the window.
The brilliant light of the Milky Way became more and more clear in the quiet night, as if the sky was full of brilliant broken diamonds. That kind of bright light was almost tongue-in-cheek, Jiang Chi hugged her gently, and said, "Rest early." ”
Qiao Siwan also knew that she had to see the elder in the morning, but she couldn't sleep soundly anymore, and she closed her eyes until she heard the sound of the maids getting up and being washed. Only then did I realize that it was already dawn.
Hongyu entered to worship Qiao Siwan to freshen up, but the maid in Jiang Chi's house stood far away, very indifferent and awe-inspiring, and did not get close to Jiang Chi, and asked freshly: "The king of the county." Do you need the help of the slaves? ”
Jiang Chi really finished dressing himself. He said lightly: "No." Xu Yu saw Qiao Siwan blinking and staring at him, so he smiled and said, "When you fight in it, you can't take a ring with you." ”
This is used to doing it yourself, so the maid ring in the house does not dare to go up easily. For some reason, Qiao Siwan lowered her eyelids a little uncalmly, and he seemed to be answering something to her.
In fact, there is no such thing, the average family always has three wives and four concubines. What's more, he is a county king, and there is a serving girl ring around him, so what is new. Even if he told her that there was a concubine or a room around him. She won't be moved either.
A lot, there will be a little bit of discomfort in the heart.
But she knew that these were unavoidable, that is, Su Yulou did not marry a concubine in the past. There are also two intercourse rings around. And she made her heart ache. But I can only endure it. Because it was someone who had served Su Yulou for many years before she entered the door, what could she do? Killed? Sold? No, she couldn't have done that back then, and she wouldn't be so stupid now.
Jiang Chi sat at the table. Watching Hongyu comb Qiao Siwan's hair with burning eyes, Hongyu was trembling by his eyes, and could only be patient. Use a rhino horn jasper comb to gradually comb through the hair that was as loose as ink satin, and pull the bun with his backhand. Then he wore a jasper prismatic flower in his hair, as if he was surrounded by a pair of butterflies. It's very flexible.
Jiang Chi suddenly stood up, entered the inner room, and immediately brought a box. Place it on the dressing table. Qiao Siwan was stunned for a moment, and when she saw him looking at herself seriously, she stretched out her hand and opened it to take a look. I was amazed. This is a phoenix wings spread on six sides, inlaid with jade, inlaid with seven treasures, and bright gold steps. The crested head is made of gold leaf. The other parts are made of gold thread as thin as a hair, and the scaly feathers are developed. Embellished with a variety of colored gemstones. Phoenix. In the middle is a long string of jade tassels. At the end of the pearl, a round pearl is brilliant.
"My mother said that this will be handed over to my wife." Jiang Chi coughed lightly.
Qiao Siwan smiled slightly, this is what Princess Yan left for her son's wife, she picked it up with her own hands and wore it on her hair. The pearl hung right between the eyebrows. Faintly bumpy brilliance. The flowing and shining, jet-black bun seemed to overflow.
No more overly greasy makeup like yesterday. Just a thin application of rouge on the face. The faint white on the cheeks turned into a faint lichen. Turning his head sideways, he suddenly saw Jiang Chi waiting, so he said softly: "The king of the county can go to the outer hall to sit and have tea." ”
Jiang Chi stared at her. There was a hint of displeasure in his gaze.
Qiao Siwan saw his emotional changes, and couldn't help but secretly measure which of her words was wrong, but heard him say, "Shouldn't you be called a lover?" ”
Hongyu covered her lips and snickered, Qiao Siwan couldn't help but open her eyes wide, she didn't expect that Jiang Chi would actually be better than this. Coughed slightly. She smiled and said, "Yes, my beloved." ”
At this time, Mother Jiang of Yanwang's Mansion came out of the inner room, and her smile could not be concealed in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. She put away the white silk that had been spread on the bed last night in a box carved red lacquer. Bendsey to them: "Congratulations to the county king, the county princess!" ”
Jiang Chi nodded.
Qiao Siwan's expression turned red, although she became a relative last night. But if she didn't have this yuanpa, she couldn't be regarded as the princess of the county.
After dressing up and having breakfast easily, Mother Jiang smiled and said, "King Jun, it's time to go and greet the prince and Concubine Dong." ”
Qiao Siwan's face was as usual, but her heart became more and more curious. This Concubine Dong is just a side concubine, and her identity is far worse than the deceased Princess Yan, but looking at Jiang's mother's title, she seems to respect her very much.
Out of the courtyard, Qiao Siwan and Jiang Chi were together. But deliberately one step behind him, Jiang Chi walked a few steps and suddenly stopped to look at her, Qiao Siwan was stunned, she didn't know why he suddenly stopped, but Jiang Chi took her hand. "Let's go." ”
Is this the benefit of having to go side by side? Qiao Siwan was shocked. There are no languages.
Along the way, the mothers of Yahuan all lowered their eyebrows and lowered their heads, and they didn't even dare to come out, and the entire corridor was so quiet that even a needle could be heard falling on the ground.
Just arrived in the hall. A woman greeted him with a smile. Standing in front of Qiao Siwan with a smile. He also took her hand. Crisp said: "You are your brother and sister, I also wanted to go to the new house to see you yesterday." Who knows that the son of the world is not happy, and it has also affected me, and please don't blame my younger brothers and sisters for being slack! ”
Qiao Siwan raised her head, only to see a pair of Danfeng eyes flying up slightly from the woman in front of her, indescribably charming and fierce, but also with a delicate body, delicate skin, and a gorgeous and cumbersome bun on her head, decorated with pearls and jade. Seriousness is natural, and it is impossible to be bright and beautiful.
Jiang Chi's face was very flat: "Wan'er, this is the princess." ”
"What kind of princess, it's only kind to call me a sister-in-law!" The woman laughed and sneered.
It seems that the beautiful woman in front of her is Sun Rouning, the eldest daughter of the Huaining Hou family, and she is also the wife of the prince of Yanwang.
Jiang Chi didn't speak, just looked at Qiao Siwan, and Qiao Siwan saluted her: "Yes." Sister-in-law. ”
"Okay, that's right! Come, I've met my father and Concubine Dong. Sun Rouning was full of smiles. Pulled Qiao Siwan up to it.
King Yan didn't seem to be healed yet, but he sat on the chair with a slight oblique posture, slightly showing a dull look, he was stunned when he caught a glimpse of Qiao Siwan, and quickly looked at Jiang Chi. The visions of father and son collide in the air. A trace of sadness flashed quickly in King Yan's eyes, but it was also fleeting.
"How about."; He muttered to himself in a low voice, and for a moment, it seemed that he was very conflicted in his heart.
Concubine Dong on the side was unconscious, and looked at Qiao Siwan with a smile. Qiao Siwan couldn't help but look at Concubine Dong with special attention. See her graceful and luxurious. Manners are elegant. The eyebrows are clear and beautiful, and the clues are picturesque. I couldn't help but be amazed at her pretty and youthful. I can't see it. The other party has been married into the Yanwang Mansion for more than 20 years.
Jiang Chi and Qiao Siwan stepped forward to greet them one by one, because it was the first time, and it was the second day of the wedding, and the two of them kowtowed to King Yan three times respectfully.
King Yan nodded, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't speak, Concubine Dong on the side helped Qiao Siwan up with a light smile, and then took a flower and bird gold wire top hollow bag for Qiao Siwan to make a meeting gift, giving people a very cordial and easy-going feeling: "It's not a good thing, it's just my heart!" ”
Qiao Siwan didn't know what was inside. Smiled and thanked him.
Sun Rouning only looked at Qiao Siwan and said with a smile: "Brother and sister, Your Majesty has given you a marriage." It's a good relationship! ”
The pendant on Concubine Dong's ear is opal. Slightly moved. It shimmered with an unpredictable light. She also laughed: "This is a royal grace." It is also the face of our noble apartment. Lord, did you say? ”
The smile on King Yan's face was very faint. He turned his head slightly, as if he was a little unhappy to see Qiao Siwan's face, and said indifferently: "You guys sit down, I have something else." He said. He stood up and walked out quickly. When I walked to the door. Suddenly turned around and said, "Chi, you come with me!" ”
Jiang Chi's esoteric eyes became annoying, and he glanced back at Qiao Siwan. Qiao Siwan smiled and nodded at him, indicating that he was relieved that she could handle the pomp and circumstance here alone, and Jiang Chi quickly followed.
King Yan's thoughts. Qiao Siwan could see it clearly, and her face did not show the slightest difference.
There was a moment of silence in the hall because of King Yan's departure. Casual and enthusiastic. Sun Rouning assured Qiao Siwan of the other people standing aside.
Jiang Chongan is the son born to Concubine Dong. Only at the age of thirteen, he has not yet received the canonization of knighthood. He was born with a snow-white face and long, round eyes. Not only does he look like King Yan, but he is polite in his activities, and his calm energy is more similar to that of advancing and retreating.
A pretty and graceful woman standing on the side looked at Qiao Siwan and smiled slightly, and the woman had a bun on her head. He wore only a hairbrush the size of lotus seeds on his head. It's very well-dressed, but it's also very low-key. Sun Rouning hurriedly explained: "This is Aunt Cao. ”
Qiao Siwan nodded. I just thought that this Cao family had some indescribable familiarity. But I don't know where I've seen it. There was a seven or eight-year-old boy next to Aunt Cao, and his facial features were very beautiful. looks like Aunt Cao, Qiao Siwan knows. This is King Yan's Ji Zijiang Chongyun. He smiled at him in a friendly way.
Jiang Chongyun looked at Qiao Siwan, her dark eyes were like a cramped and restless deer, and her body hid behind Aunt Cao one by one.
Qiao Siwan looked at him, and suddenly noticed a trace between his eyebrows. casually looked at Aunt Cao, between the lightning and flint, she knew who Aunt Cao looked like. Look at each other's gentle silhouettes and beautiful looks. understands that there are three points like yourself, no, it should be said that there are three points like Lin Wanqing.
Sun Rouning looked left and right, blinked her eyes, and suddenly smiled: "Looking at it this way, Aunt Cao and her younger siblings are a little similar!" ”
That sounds a bit unique. A portrait of the county lord and the aunt of King Yan. I don't know if it's not, whether Rou Ning is intentional or unintentional, Qiao Siwan smiled faintly: "This is also popularity, sister-in-law said yes?"
Sun Rouning didn't expect her to be so remote, so she couldn't help but be stunned, and smiled casually: "Yes." ”
At this time. Concubine Dong stood up and said with a smile: "It's so good, let's not be stuffy in the house, come, Wan'er." I'll take you to the garden.
From start to finish. No one in this house mentioned the prince Jiang Chong'an, as if everyone had forgotten him. Thinking of the various speculations about him in the market, Qiao Siwan's heart couldn't help but raise a trace of deeper doubts.
The area of Yanwang's Mansion is not large, and the overall style is more quaint and easy than the luxurious Princess's Mansion. Because the sky was bright and the warm breeze made the people's mood more and more comfortable, Concubine Dong took Qiao Siwan to visit the flower garden of Yanwang's Mansion, talking and laughing all the way, and the air was also very harmonious.
Sun Rouning suddenly said: "Brother and sister, what do you think of this piece of material on Concubine Dong's mother?" ”
Qiao Siwan took a closer look at Concubine Dong's clothes. Smiled: , it's a good fabric. It's just that I'm so blind that I can't tell which family has the cloth that is so good. ”
Sun Rouning looked at her and smiled: "No, Concubine Dong's body, even the prince's body, our body." All the people in the high and low of the Yanwang Guiyu use our own weaving of the Yanwang Mansion. ”
"Your own weaving?" Qiao Siwan was slightly stunned.
"Yes. Concubine Dong is wide and modern. Ingenuity. She saw that the clothes and fabrics in the house alone cost tens of thousands of taels of silver every year. So he raised silkworms in the house. Let's go to the house
