Chapter 133: Dare to Think
Wang Xi pursed his lips in his heart.
Chang Ke looked at it and smiled, and whispered to her: "There is also an imperial garden over there in Cining Palace, which is smaller than this side, but it is better than this side. β
No matter how beautiful it looks, that's it.
After all, if you are in the palace, if the words you say are quoted by someone with a heart, it will not be good if you get into trouble.
Wang Xi nodded, and Miss Wu Er's voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "The scenery here is indeed average. If you want to go, go to Gongwan in the north, where the garden is big, and you will feel much more comfortable when you look at it. Compared with the small and delicate side of the Yangtze River, it is more sparse and open. It is incomparable to Jiangnan gardens. β
"Miss Wu Er." Wang Xi and Chang Ke greeted her in surprise.
She smiled slightly, as the tailor of Yun Xiangrong said, she wore a green gown inlaid with eight treasure patterns, and also wore a lapis lazuli hairpin, which looked a little more feminine than before.
"When the queen mother and the eldest princess sit down on the side hall, we can play everywhere." Miss Wu Er whispered to the two, "Today, the people from the Pear Blossom Class and Lianzhufang are here, and the hall will be arranged in the Qianqiu Pavilion behind Chuxiu Palace, you will be careful later, Concubine Shuniang will live in Chuxiu Palace." β
Wang Xizhi frowned.
The singing hall will be noisy, and I hope that the queen mother did not intend to set the place of the singing hall in the Qianqiu Pavilion.
Miss Wu Er looked at it and smiled: "You don't have to worry too much. The queen has always been broad-minded, and she is not going to do such a thing for no reason. What's more, the six palaces are not free to move around, if they deliberately leave the Chuxiu Palace, even if we collide with them, the queen mother will not favor them. β
I'm afraid that they are not wandering in the Qianqiu Pavilion for no reason.
Wang Xi has so many aunts and cousins, all of whom are married to families with some family resources, and she doesn't know how much she has seen about the pickling of the inner house.
But Miss Wu Er said this, and Wang Xi didn't want to brush off her kindness, smiled and promised, and asked Miss Wu Er: "Will you go to the play with us later?" β
6 Ling made an appointment with her, she didn't know if 6 Ling had an appointment with Miss Wu Er.
Miss Wu Er shook her head with a smile, pointed to the hairpin in her hair and smiled: "You look at me, do you look like you can walk around casually?" We will all go to the side hall of the Qin'an Hall to listen to the announcement, and the queen mother may have summoned us to speak. After speaking, as if she remembered something, she added: "Miss Bo Liu is also with me." I can only ask Ah Ling to take care of you later. β
In other words, 6 Ling does not go.
It should be because 6 Ling's age and no one is suitable, right?
Wang Xi looked at Miss Wu Er's somewhat heroic face, and couldn't help but care: "Are you okay?" β
With the status of the Qingping Marquis Mansion, being a pure minister is the best choice.
Miss Wu Er knew that Wang Xi understood her words, and she was very emotional.
There are few wives and good morals. Miss Wang is so smart. There are still brothers in her family who are not engaged to Miss Wang, so it is better to be a matchmaker and marry Miss Wang to their family.
She suddenly moved her mind, became a little closer to Wang Xi, thought about it, and simply whispered: "The queen mother does want to choose concubines for several princes, but what kind of marriage match will be made in the end depends on the emperor's intentions." I can follow Miss Bo Liu and the others to meet the queen mother, but because I was born in the Qingping Marquis Mansion, the queen's eyes may not be on me. You can rest assured. β
Wang Xi pursed his lips and smiled.
What's wrong with her? Even if Miss Wu Er wants to marry the second prince as his wife, the holy decree will come down, but I am afraid that there is no way to do it in the Qingping Marquis Mansion, what can she do as a small commoner?
However, she felt Miss Wu Er's closeness to her. Although I don't know what's going on, Miss Wu Er is very good, and she is willing to get closer to Miss Wu Er.
She smiled and said, "We'll go find Miss 6 later." β
Miss Wu Er left with confidence.
When she met 6 Ling, she still told her.
6 Ling responded with a smile.
The fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion standing next to her smiled as if she was careless: "I didn't expect you to have such a good time with Miss Wang Jiabiao of the Yongcheng Hou Mansion." β
6 Ling didn't think much about it, and said with a smile: "She's really good." β
But there was no more.
The fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion did not ask.
A group of foreign women and the ladies of the Hou Mansion and the Bofu surrounded the queen mother and the eldest princess, the eldest princess, and the princess Fuyang and stopped and walked around the imperial garden with a smile, and everyone returned to the Qin'an Palace, but some people followed the queen mother to sit in the apse of the Qin'an Palace, some were arranged to sit in the side hall, and some were left in the main hall.
Among them are the second wife of Yongcheng Houfu and Chang Yan, Chang Ke, and Wang Xi.
Shi Zhu, like Miss Wu Er, was called to the side hall by the female officials in the palace.
The second wife's handkerchief was about to be wrenched.
Chang Yan glanced at the second wife and others of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, who were also left behind, walked to her mother with a white face, and called out softly "Mother", and said: "Don't be sad, everyone has their own fate, I don't believe that I will live worse than others in the future." β
The second wife nodded with red eyes, and was about to comfort her daughter a few words, when she saw 6 Ling walking over accompanied by a female official.
"Sister Wang! Fourth Sister Chang! She greeted Wang Xi and Chang Ke like a lark, and also greeted the second wife, and said, "Do you want to go with me to see the water lilies in the garden?" β
In that circle just now, they not only saw a conservatory in the imperial garden, but also saw several large vats next to the conservatory, in which water lilies and goldfish were raised.
Wang Xi and Chang Ke didn't want to stay with the second wife and Chang Yan, not to mention that Miss Wu Er said that she would ask 6 Ling to take care of them, 6 Ling was obviously entrusted, and they didn't want 6 Ling to run this trip in vain, so the two of them said "good" in a row.
6 Ling said goodbye to the second wife with Wang Xi and Chang Ke.
The second wife didn't want to take care of Wang Xi and Chang Ke, it can be seen that 6 Ling didn't talk about it at all, and only invited Wang Xi and Chang Ke to play, but she was very unhappy in her heart, and deliberately embarrassed them a few words, who knew that before she could speak, the fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion suddenly came over from the side and said to 6 Ling with a smile: "I will also go with you." I just saw that there is a dim sum on the side of the rockery, and I like the chrysanthemum cake made in the imperial dining room the most, and I will try the dim sum in the imperial dining room later. β
There are seven or eight dim sum places in the imperial garden for everyone to use when they are free, and Wang Xi also saw it just now.
6 Ling didn't think much about it, she said indifferently: "You can go if you want to!" We're all together. β
The fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion seemed to have just seen the second wife of the Yongcheng Hou Mansion and Chang Yan at this time, and she hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to say hello, and followed 6 Ling and left.
The second wife was so angry that her eyes were red, and Chang Yan even said for a long time: "What does she mean by this?" β
Do you want to tell them that the Marquis of Xiangyang can look down on Chang Ke and look down on her?
The second wife hurriedly hugged her daughter and comforted her gently: "Leave them alone." The fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion is heartless, who doesn't know. What are you talking about with her? β
Even if she wants to deal with Miss Five, what kind of identity can she have?
Chang Yan wanted to cry but was afraid of being seen by others and laughed, so she didn't dare to cry.
On Wang Xi's side, the fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion suddenly fell into a low mood when she left those wives, and she lost her liveliness just now.
6 Ling hurriedly said, "What's wrong with you?" β
The fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion smiled reluctantly, said "nothing", and somehow, suddenly said: "My grandmother wants to marry me to the Yan family, but the Yan family doesn't want to marry our family at all." β
She was afraid that she would be forcibly pulled in front of Mrs. Yan by the elders in the family and be embarrassed.
"The Yan family?" 6 Ling was at a loss.
Wang Xi thought of the snobbish style of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, and he had an idea, and said, "Could it be the family of Yan Zhenyan, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang?" β
The fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion looked at Wang Xi differently.
You know, genealogy is a very intricate thing. People like her, who grew up in the Hou Mansion in the capital since she was a child, sometimes only mention a surname and ask whose family it is, Wang Xi has been in the capital for less than four months, and she can guess whose family it is by listening to a sentence, which is not just something that can be done by being smart.
"It's their home." She said distressedly. "What kind of family is the Yan family, how can they fall in love with me. I'll have to borrow you to hide. β
Truly. Don't look at Yan Zhen as leading troops to fight, but the Yan family is a scholar, and Yan Zhen is also a two-rank jinshi. Civil officials have always looked down on military attachΓ©s, not to mention that Yan Xu's family is still a family of eunuchs for generations, and his great-uncle once served as the first assistant of the cabinet, there is no accident in such a family, and it is impossible to marry with the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion.
6 Ling suddenly realized and said, "That's really a bit bad. However, how many sons does Lord Yan have? How many sons did your family fancy to him? β
She was purely curious, and the fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion did not feel offended, and said: "It is said that there are six sons, all of whom are concubines, among which the eldest son and the second son have been lifted, the third son has been taken by Lord Yan's side, and the other sons are still young and follow Mrs. Yan in the capital." What they wanted to tell me was their third son. β
In this way, it seems that the Xiangyang Hou Mansion is quite successful. If the third son is left by his side because of his poor qualifications, and he is ready to take the road of Yin Feng, the Xiangyang Hou Mansion will work hard, maybe it will really succeed.
"Your wife really dares to think and dare to do it!" Wang Xi couldn't help but say, "No wonder your family is thriving, no one can compare." β
The fifth lady of the Xiangyang Hou Mansion turned red, glared at Wang Xi and said, "You ......"
Wang Xi sighed and said, "I'm really not sarcastic about you. I really think your wife is not simple. There are really very few women who can be as successful as her. My grandmother once said, don't look at people who have a good life, but she has managed to get it herself......"
She said, feeling as if someone was staring at her.
She stopped, looked by her senses, and saw two women standing by a boulder not far from them, one of them about sixty years old, with gray hair but a ruddy complexion, and beautiful eyebrows, dressed as a lady; A woman about thirty years old, delicate and delicate, with a flower-like appearance, was also dressed as a lady, and was holding the sixty-year-old woman weakly, looking at her with shining eyes.
Seeing her look over, he smiled at her shyly.
Wang Xi was expressionless and regretted it very much.
She knew that she didn't know when she would meet what kind of people in this palace, but she still couldn't hold back the nonsense, if she died here, she would do it herself.
