Chapter 143: Provocation

Li Ruxue listened as she listened, as if she had forgotten the pain on her face, and when the maid finished speaking, she had a calculating smile on her face.

"yes, why didn't I think of that before? Hmph, since my brother likes that slut in Soho so much, why don't I give him a hand? You come here. Li Ruxue said, beckoning to the maid and whispering a few words in her ear.

But the maid hesitated a little when she heard this, "This ...... County Lord, will it be a bit risky for us to do this? ”

Li Ruxue glanced at her, her face full of indifference, "What are you afraid of?" When the sky falls, I'll hold it on top, so you can do it! ”

The maid could only nod and say, "Yes!" ”

Li Ruxue stood up, looked out through the small window of the tent, clenched her fists tightly, outside the window, the ladies of these clans gathered together, laughing and laughing, nothing more than saying secret words in the boudoir and comparing words quietly, Li Ruxue rolled her eyes very disdainfully, and then she saw Su Qing, Li Ruxue took it upon herself and walked out.

"Ah, county lord, you look so good in this dress." As soon as he got out of the door, someone came over and stammered.

Li Ruxue chuckled lightly and said proudly, "Of course, this is what my father brought back from Beimeng, made of wool, and it is made of horseback riding style in Beimeng, but the colors and crafts are all from our Da Zhou, which softens the characteristics of the two countries." ”

"yes, it's really chic."

Li Ruxue glanced at Su Qing not far behind her out of the corner of her eye, and Su Qing would hear everything they said at this time, so Li Ruxue deliberately sighed, causing the woman on the side to ask, "County Lord, what's wrong?" Alas, sighing? ”

Li Ruxue shook her head, looking at the boundless sadness, she said, "Isn't this a commotion at home?" Not my bastard brother yet? Sister-in-law is such a good person, he doesn't know how to cherish it. Li Ruxue deliberately said this to let Su Qing listen.

Sure enough, Su Qing, who was not far behind her, heard it and stopped, this sentence evoked what she had experienced in these days, and she couldn't help but feel sad and sigh at the impermanence of fate.

Li Ruxue continued, "It is said that my brother is blessed to marry a virtuous person like his sister-in-law, and he should be satisfied, but I don't know why, he has to marry ......" Li Ruxue deliberately paused, and this pause made the people who were talking next to her, as well as Su Qing, who was eavesdropping behind, start to get anxious.

"Who are you going to marry?" The people around him hurriedly asked, in the face of this kind of gossip, like this kind of boudoir women who have nothing to do all day long and rarely adjust.

"Soho! It's my sister-in-law's sister! Li Ruxue said it, and there was a lot of dissatisfaction in her tone.

Su Qing frowned, his hands clenched unconsciously.

"What?"

"You heard it right, my brother is going to marry her, it is said that she is a lowly girl, and my brother will not take a fancy to her, but my brother is lost, I was also very puzzled, but today I happened to meet the two of them and whispered together, it turned out that this Soho actually seduced my brother in private!"

"Ah, it's shameless, how can you do this...... Shame on you! ”

Li Ruxue deliberately pretended to turn back inadvertently, so she "coincidentally" saw Su Qing, whose face was blue and pale, she deliberately pretended to be surprised, and walked forward quickly: "Oh, sister-in-law, why are you here?" ”

Su Qing came back to his senses and smiled reluctantly, "I'm also passing by." ”

Li Ruxue asked cautiously, "Sister-in-law, what I just said, ...... you?"

"I heard it all." Su Qing replied.

Li Ruxue deliberately pretended to be very remorseful, "Oh, sister-in-law, don't be angry, what I said just now is all nonsense, sister-in-law, don't take it seriously." ”

Su Qing heard it in her heart early in the morning, after going through so much, she couldn't help but doubt it, besides, she always knew that Li Xian had never given up on Soho, but Suho she ...... Is she really as Li Ruxue said? Although Su Qing still had some doubts in his heart, he would rather believe it than believe it.

Li Ruxue looked at Su Qing's reaction, and knew that her words had worked, she pulled Su Qing's sleeve and said, "Sister-in-law, you better come back quickly, look, you have only been away for a few days?" My brother started to ...... Alas, that Soho is also yes, when she was asked to marry her brother as a concubine, she still didn't agree, how can she ...... now Oops, I see, could she be the main house? Yes, yes, it makes sense, she didn't want to marry at the beginning, just because she was unwilling to be a concubine, and now she sees that there is a problem between her sister-in-law and her brother, so she wants to take advantage of the loophole to come in! Li Ruxue "analyzed" by herself, and Su Qing's face became more and more ugly.

"County Lord, I'll go back when the hunt is over." Su Qing said.

"Oops, that's for the best, it's just...... It's not going to be a short hunt, and who knows what will happen in between? ”

Su Qing rubbed her forehead, looking a little tired and haggard, she is not much better these days, staying in the Su Mansion, although she is protected by her mother, but she has lived like this for a long time, there are always people who gossip, no, the old lady has said her openly and secretly several times, telling her that since she is a married person, it is the water that is spilled, and she can't live in her mother's house all the time, although her mother protects her, but she also sighs and sighs all day long, which makes her uncomfortable.

"County Lord, I'm a little tired, go back and lie down for a while." Su Qing said.

Li Ruxue helped Su Qing and replied, "Okay, sister-in-law will go back to sleep for a while, but you must get up at night, the emperor will hold a banquet in the middle tent, and there will be Marseille at that time." ”

Su Qing nodded tiredly, "Okay." ”

Night is fast approaching, and with the full moon hanging high and the stars shining brightly tonight, it seems that tomorrow must be a good day. Su He came to the middle tent and sat in his seat according to the guidance, because Su Yuanqing was the prime minister and an important minister in the court, so their seats should be higher, and Su Kun also came and sat above her.

"Third sister." When Su Kun saw her coming, he stood up and said hello.

Soho replied lightly and sat down.

People came one after another, and the seats gradually filled up. Soho looked up while drinking tea, Zhou Jinghan also came, sitting on the lower right of the emperor's main seat, his temperament always looked different, just sitting, just a drinking action, it was cold and alienated.

But Su Ho's look at Zhou Jinghan fell in Li Ruxue's eyes, she tried to calm her breath, but in fact, she couldn't wait to pounce on it now and pull Su Ho's face back!

After waiting for a while, the emperor was late, but not with the queen, but with Concubine Yun, Concubine Yun was dressed in a costume and stood beside the emperor, I didn't know, I thought she was the queen, and the emperor cared for her, according to the regulations, Concubine Yun couldn't sit next to the emperor, but the emperor favored her, personally ordered and ordered, let her sit on the other side of herself, in this way, it was the same status as the queen, Concubine Yun knew the general situation, and took the initiative to ask to sit below, not to sit on the emperor's side, the emperor had no choice but to listen to her.

The emperor said a few words in a loud voice, which was nothing more than some scene words, the autumn hunting ceremony is held every year, and the words are no different every year.

The next thing is to eat, drink, and sing and dance, since it is hunting, this song and dance is different from the kind of weak and boneless style on weekdays, but vigorous and powerful, full of heroic spirit, which makes people refresh and bright.

Soho ate the things on the table, and secretly handed a piece to Yingxue from time to time, the master and servant were laughing lively, fortunately, although their seats were higher, they were also in the corner, no one noticed, and even if they did, no one would say anything, on this occasion, it was originally casual, as long as it was not excessive, no one would care.

It was still early for everyone to eat and drink enough and withdraw from the song and dance.

"Your Majesty, are we going to race horses?" The county lord took the initiative to run out.

The emperor looked at her and said with a smile, "You, a ghost elf, have liked to ride horses since you were a child, haven't you ridden enough?" ”

"Not enough, not enough, the emperor, Ruxue has been preparing for a long time, the emperor must be gracious and allow Ruxue to ride on the field once."

The Emperor nodded, "Okay, what year didn't I let you ride?" I just don't know who you're going to be this year? ”

Soho was sitting in the corner watching the excitement, but at this time, her eyelids were pounding, and she always felt that Li Ruxue was pointing the finger at her.

Sure enough, Li Ruxue thought for a while and said loudly, "Your Majesty, Ruxue heard that the prime minister's daughter, Soho is good at riding horses, and Ruxue wants to compete with her." ”

"Miss, how can this work!" As soon as Yingxue heard Li Ruxue's words, the dim sum foam in her mouth squirted out in shock.

Soho sat there, she knew that Li Ruxue would not be well-intentioned, and she would not let her go, from her conversation with the emperor just now, she could hear that the county lord was good at riding horses, and her skills were superb, but she couldn't, although she could ride, but it was only limited to the will, if she really tried it, she would definitely suffer, but at this time she couldn't hide, it was too late.

The emperor was interested, he looked at Su Yuanqing's side, and said loudly, "It turns out that Su Aiqing's daughter is also so good?" Which one it is, I'll see if you stand up. ”

Su Yuanqing was also embarrassed, he probably knew that the county lord did it on purpose, where would Su He ride a horse? So he stood up and said, "Back to the emperor, the little girl is clumsy, where can she ride a horse, don't come out to be an eyesore, and please let the county lord choose another opponent." ”

"Oh?" The Emperor spoke faintly.

Li Ruxue stepped forward, "What are you doing here, Prime Minister?" Reluctant? Horse racing is originally entertainment, what does the prime minister have. Not sure? Don't disturb the interest of the emperor and everyone. ”

In the face of Li Ruxue's aggressiveness, Su Yuanqing couldn't say anything, he turned his head to look at Su He.

Soho exhaled and stepped forward, "The courtiers must listen to the emperor's orders." ”

The emperor nodded and said, "Okay, this daughter of Su Aiqing is really beautiful and naturally beautiful, and it is rare that she can ride a horse, okay, then the two of you will have a try!" ”
