Chapter 136: Tutoring Etiquette
Bai Yanran is the first time she has appeared as Princess An after the wedding, so she will inevitably become the target of public criticism.
As soon as this marriage was strange, many people scoffed at the eight-character fit, and selfishly thought that it must be Bai Yanran's skill.
Second, His Royal Highness King An's Yushu is in the wind, and he is personable, he was originally half of the spring boudoir dreams of the ladies in Beijing, and he suddenly got married and didn't know how many hearts were broken.
Bai Yanran had already expected it, she was as immobile as a mountain, gossiping with her mother Qi, but she was at ease. might as well be looking for someone who doesn't know each other, and called affectionately: "This is Yanran, right?" ”
The person who came was a beautiful woman of the same age as Qi's, dressed in a jujube red dress, wearing a jade hairpin with a little emerald Ruyi pearl and jade hairpin, which was very eye-catching, which showed that she was a person who usually liked to be in the limelight.
The woman was followed by two familiar ladies, both of whom were smiling, but they could not hide the look of optimism in their eyes. Bai Yanran only glanced at it cursoly, and then she had a bottom in her heart, and only nodded lightly.
The woman's expression was a little displeased, and her voice was raised by two points, and she said, "Look, I am so happy that I forgot to make it clear to you." My lord is Tong Shengyuan, the third room of the Tong family, and the three of us are all your aunts. ”
Bai Yanran glanced at each other when she heard this, got up and bowed politely, but said lightly: "It was the three aunts of the Tong family, and Yanran was polite." ”
The woman's face softened, and she didn't look at Qi's family, so she sat down in the vacant banquet on the side, and said in a rather commanding tone: "Speaking of which, with your former status, you naturally can't come to a banquet like Houfu, and it is reasonable that you haven't seen your aunt." It's just that now that you have married into the palace, why don't you come to your grandfather's house to visit? ”
A woman standing next to her answered: "That's it, you don't understand the rules like this, the old lady was talking about His Royal Highness King An a few days ago." Men can't imagine these things carelessly, and your lady is so confused! ”
The other woman had a cold face from beginning to end, and snorted at this moment: "In the end, it is not from a high-ranking family like our Tong family, such a tutor, and I don't know how to take care of the good palace, I don't think it is as good as the girl of the Lan family." ”
Qi was originally a straight man, but at this moment, he was belittled by his daughter back then, and he immediately couldn't stand it and got up to argue with him.
Bai Yanran patted her hand indifferently, sat down again, and swept over the three women with a smile, and then turned a blind eye and continued to talk to her mother about family life.
Mrs. Tong was stunned for a moment, then became angry, pointed at Bai Yanran and scolded: "You thing that came out of the broken door, you are so rude, you are also worthy of being a princess?!" ”
Bai Yanran turned her head to look at her again, her face was no longer pleasant, and she looked at Mrs. Tong San coldly and said, "I married the prince, and it is not your turn to question it." Since you know that I am Princess An, why don't you salute when you see me? Dare to make wild remarks about the next offense! ”
These words were said mercilessly, and the three ladies of the Tong family turned red and black when they heard it, but they couldn't say a word of rebuttal, just because what Bai Yanran said was reasonable.
The Tong family has been in civil strife for a while since the old man Tong went, and in the end, Sanfang narrowly succeeded to the title, but he was only a marquis.
Although Mrs. Tong San is a marquise, she naturally cannot be compared with the princess's fate, not to mention the other two rooms without a marquis, seeing Bai Yanran according to the rules, she should naturally salute.
Seeing this, Bai Yanran also snorted coldly from them, and said, "This is your tutor's etiquette." ”
Mrs. Tong Sanfang saw that her eyes were getting more and more around her, she was simply embarrassed, and she turned around and left, and the other two ladies also followed, bowing their heads and frowning.
Seeing Qi's happy face, Bai Yanran's complexion softened, and the mother and daughter looked at each other and smiled.
After laughing, Qi sighed, although she didn't speak, Bai Yanran saw the worry in her eyes, so she changed the topic and said: "Speaking of which, the two aunts in the family are about to give birth in the next month, so my mother should be vigilant." ”
Qi Shi was really diverted from his mind and replied: "This is natural, your father is also very worried these days." I'm also here, and I know what to do, so don't worry about it. But your grandmother has been getting worse and worse lately, and she may ...... one day."
Bai Yanran comforted: "Grandmother has reached such an age, and her children and grandchildren are filial, so it is time to look away." ”
Qi nodded and said: "I naturally understand this, I am just worried about your brother's marriage, this filial piety has been delayed for another year, and I don't know where this marriage will fall in the future, I always have no bottom in my heart." ”
Bai Yanran saw that her mother was worried, so she was relieved: "Where is this kind of thing like marriage in a hurry, it may not be good to be good earlier, they all say that good things are grinding, maybe in the future, my brother will be able to make a splash and marry you back a fairy as a daughter-in-law." ”
Qi was amused by her daughter, and Bai Yanran took her mother to enjoy the flowers. Qi Su Ri is also very fond of flowers and plants, and when he saw the many cherished flowers and plants in this Hou Mansion, he couldn't help but talk to Bai Yanran, and he was also the Tao.
The two of them enjoyed while walking, and as they were talking, they heard Princess Anle say coldly: "I didn't expect that Mrs. Bai is also an inner family, and I can be regarded as finding a soulmate." ”
turned around and saw that in the pavilion behind the flowers, it was Princess Anle and Ji Lingyun, the two had obviously already spoken, and Princess Anle came over to discuss with her mother.
Ji Lingyun blinked, quietly pulled Bai Yanran away, and signaled that Su Xin didn't have to follow. The little girl covered her lips knowingly and snickered, and stayed in place.
The two walked in the garden of Houfu, and the two hands unconsciously clasped together, silent for a while, but also quiet and warm. terminal
Suddenly, she heard Lingxi's voice in front of her, and Bai Yanran remembered that she said that she was going to look for Princess Anle, but she didn't know how she got here without finding anyone.
Ji Lingyun was also a little dazed, the two approached and wanted to take a closer look, but they heard Lingxi ask a little hesitantly: "Who is the woman in the painting you just made?" ”
The person on the other side was silent for a while, and the two turned the trunk of the tree but saw the background of a man, and the back of the figure was very familiar.
Lingxi urged: "You, you speak." ”
Then another, more familiar voice rang out, and replied, "Didn't the princess see it?" ”
Bai Yanran and Ji Lingyun glanced at each other, both of them shocked. Seeing Lingxi's cheeks like a glow, he was ashamed of his daughter's family for a while, and he didn't dare to look at Bai Boren opposite.
Bai Boren paused, took a step back and replied: "If the princess has nothing else to do, Weichen will retreat, otherwise people will see gossip, and I am afraid that the princess's reputation will be damaged." ”
Ling Xi was stunned, then puffed out his mouth angrily, and asked, "If you are allowed to draw me in public, you are not allowed to say a few words to you in private?" ”
Bai Boren was dumbfounded, and even turned red with the tips of his ears, and only said after a while: "Weichen did it unintentionally, please forgive the princess." ”
Seeing him like this, Ling Xi was even more surprised, and said angrily: "I don't blame you, you idiot." ”
After saying that, he turned around and ran, and for a moment forgot the princess demeanor that Aunt Sang had been mentioning all day long. Bai Boren watched the shadow disappear in a daze, and unconsciously smirked for a moment, and then pursed his lips and frowned.
Bai Yanran, who saw it with her own eyes, couldn't help frowning, a fool could also see the affection between her brother and Princess Lingxi, it was good for the two to be happy, but there were many difficulties between the two.
Let's not mention the identity gap between the two, what matters is the matter of Rongguo and relatives in the spring of next year. If it is really as my mother said, my grandmother is afraid that it will be a recent matter, and when my brother is still in the filial piety period, how can I talk about marriage with Lingxi.
Ji Lingyun frowned when he saw her, but comforted: "Although Lingxi died since her mother died when she was a child, she was raised by the queen mother herself, and she has a deep relationship with her mother. I think that if the two of them are really affectionate, I will talk about peace and peace, and the queen mother will speak for them in front of my father.
My father has always attached little importance to the marriage of the princess, and he doesn't like to use this marriage to entrap the ministers, so I don't think it's too strict, and you don't have to worry too much. ”
Bai Yanran couldn't say it clearly, so she had to nod and hide her worries in her heart.
The two of them in this compartment were in love, and Ji Sihong in that compartment pestered Gu Yueyao in face for a long time, but he was still defeated in the cold, so he had to go home in a huff.
He was already unhappy, and when he returned home to hear that Concubine Song was sick again, he was naturally even more upset. After asking about the situation carefully, I learned that Wang Lao had already seen it and it was no big deal, so he didn't want to go and see it for a while.
Ji Sihong knew in his heart that Song's illness was a heart disease, precisely because he asked to marry Gu Yueyao as a concubine.
Gu Yueyao's pungent temperament is well-known in Beijing, and the Song family is originally weak and hearted, I am afraid that I will think that there will be such a princess in the palace in the future, so I will be suspicious and sick again.
In fact, how did Ji Sihong want to ask to marry such a woman who was picked by Ji Lingyun to be the princess, but this was the meaning of the concubine, and he didn't dare to disobey.
But even if he swallowed his anger and put down his body, Gu Yueyao didn't buy it, and he had already made him very angry. After sitting in the front hall for a while, he went to a quiet courtyard in the backyard.
The girl in the yard hurriedly came out to greet her, her face was full of joy, but when she entered the house, Qian Wan'er inside was panicked and frightened when she saw him, as if he was a cannibal.
Ji Sihong was a little impatient, and beckoned: "Come here, you sit with this king for a while." ”
Qian Wan'er saw that Ji Sihong was in a bad mood, and walked over with a cower, but she didn't dare to sit beside her, but only stood stiffly. Ji Sihong's face was even more unswerving, and he said coldly: "What, are you afraid that this king will eat you?" ”
Qian Wan'er hesitated for a moment and replied in a low voice: "King, prince, the concubine has been unwell for the past two days, and I am afraid that she will not be able to serve the prince to the fullest." ”
Ji Sihong was furious when he heard this, and suddenly flipped the table and scolded: "With your appearance, is it possible that the king left you in the mansion to covet beauty?" As incomprehensible as you are, this king is not uncommon! ”
After saying that, she brushed her sleeves away, and the girl outside the courtyard knelt on the ground, and after everyone left, they all looked at each other, I don't know why Aunt Qian annoyed the prince so quickly, and I don't know if she will be completely left out in the future.
The girl Zhirong came in and sighed, called someone to come and clean up the mess in the house, and persuaded: "Auntie, why bother, the prince has been here for a long time these days, why do you want to be popular?" ”
Qian Wan'er stood silently aside, not refutating, she unconsciously tightened her right hand that had been behind her back, and there was a small note hidden in that hand.
