Xie Ruying under the morning light is beautiful and moving, like a beauty in a painting, no one can see that her true face has been so badly damaged.

Qin Yunuan approached, and before Xie Ruying could speak, she made a preemptive move, and said in a cold tone: "Miss Xie's secret, I won't tell others, no matter here." Qin Yunuan stared at Xie Ruying's cheek, then lowered her gaze and glanced at Xie Ruying's lower abdomen, "It's still a secret there, I won't tell." ”

Seeing that Qin Yunuan was about to leave, Xie Ruying grabbed Qin Yunuan's sleeve and said urgently: "How do you know?" I've been hiding it so well, I've been deliberately sprinkling chicken blood on my pants for the past two months, and no one has noticed anything strange so far, except for you, except for you, a monster. ”

"Miss Xie" Man'er and Tingxue had already retreated, and quietly guarded the entrance and exit of the stone bridge to prevent anyone from approaching, so Qin Yunuan didn't need to take care of anything, "Is this your attitude of begging for people?" Well? ”

"Who said I asked you?"

Qin Yunuan's calm and clear eyes swept over Xie Ruying's face, and she sneered: "Didn't Miss Xie come to ask me, who hurt your face?" ”

"Needless to say, it's not you poisonous woman." Xie Ruying was still angry.

"Hmph" Qin Yunuan turned her head and watched the fiery red fallen leaves on the maple trees on the shore fall into the water, spinning, and rippling, "If it were me, I would naturally think first of all about whose wild seed I was carrying in my belly." ”

Xie Ruying lost her voice: "It's the second lady." ”

Qin Yunuan raised her eyebrows, she only knew that Xie Ruying was pregnant, and it all depended on Sun Miaoyang to see that the divine doctor deserved to be a divine doctor, and with just one glance, she could conclude that Xie Ruying had been pregnant for two months, but what Qin Yunuan didn't know was that Xie Ruying was pregnant with whose child, Xie Ruying was not in the right style, but what Qin Yunuan didn't expect was that Xie Ruying actually had a personal affair with the second master of Xifu, who was more than 20 years older than her, which seemed to be even more exciting than expected.

Qin Yunuan silently watched as Xie Ruying's anger on his face became more and more intense.

"I knew it must be her," Xie Ruying said to herself, "On weekdays, she looks at me unpleasantly, and now, she actually ruined my appearance with such a vicious method, and I must make her pay it back." ”

Qin Yunuan turned her head and didn't look at her, her tone was light, as if she was dissuading: "When is the time for retribution, Miss Xie, I'm just afraid that you haven't taken revenge yet, but you have taken more in, it's not worth it." ”

Xie Ruying glanced at Qin Yunuan fiercely, and left angrily with only one sentence "This is my own business";

Seeing Xie Ruying walking away, Man'er came up to put on a silver mouse coat for Qin Yunuan, as it is getting colder and colder today, and the weather in late autumn is a little bleak.

"Why is the third young grandmother so cheap that Miss Xie? What's in it for us to be so clearly reminded of her? Xi'er is young and hasn't figured out the truth yet.

Qin Yunuan gathered her clothes, continued to walk back, looked at Xi'er and said with a smile: "First, even if I tell her, with her ability, it is impossible to bring down a main room, and what she does is just some useless work, second, I didn't specify from beginning to end that it was the second lady of Xifu who harmed her, it was her wishful thinking, not to mention, I know that she is pregnant with wild seeds, even if she is discovered, she will not dare to drag me into the water, third, and the most important point" Qin Yunuan pulled her hair, and her tone was leisurely: "Hurt her, It's not the second lady at all. ”

"...... this?" This time, even Man'er didn't understand.

The courtyard could already be seen from a distance, and Qin Yunuan's pace slowed down a little: "Although the second lady of Xifu has sharp teeth and a mean mouth, she is mean, but it is all a little woman's posture, she can't do this kind of thing of disfigurement, and she has no ability to do it, in the palace, the one who seems to be the most elegant can be the biggest mastermind behind the scenes, Man'er, Tingxue, Xi'er, you are all the most trusted maids around me, and you will learn to speak and do things in the future, remember, look at people, don't look at faces, look at hearts." ”

The three maids all responded honestly, and at this time they walked to the gate of the courtyard, Liao's mother did not guard in the inner courtyard as usual, but kept waiting at the door, anxiously looking from afar, and when she saw Qin Yunuan's figure, she immediately greeted her.

"Why is Liao's mother in such a hurry? Isn't today the day when the eunuch of the country rests? Baochuan should be back soon, and I'm still thinking about making mung bean cakes for him. Speaking of Baochuan, a few bright smiles bloomed on Qin Yunuan's long-tired face.

Mother Liao looked around and saw that there was no one, so she lowered her voice and said, "Third Young Grandma, do you still remember the brocade boxes that the Third Young Master brought back last night?" ”

Qin Yunuan nodded: "Remember, yesterday the prime minister entered the palace and came back with a lot of tributes along with Baihua Yulu." ”

Liao's mother continued: "This morning, when the little maid was cleaning up her things, she knocked over one of the brocade boxes, and in addition to an inkstone, a one-arm square painting also fell out. ”

As he spoke, he had already entered the house, and as soon as Man'er heard the snow close the door, Liao's mother immediately took out the painting from the sleeve cage, which was a good tiger skin rice paper, with ink dancing on it, and it could be seen that he was a good painter, but the content was a little strange, it was a group of cattle and sheep who were kept in captivity in a fence full of thorns, with tears in the corners of their eyes, and outside the fence, there was a gracefully dressed lady with a sharp knife in her hand, which seemed to be to slaughter this group of cattle and sheep.

"What a strange painting." Man'er looked at it from the side and said, "It should be the butcher who kills cattle and sheep?" Why such a beautiful and noble lady? ”

Qin Yunuan frowned: "Which brocade box did this fall out of?" ”

Mother Liao immediately brought over the brocade box with a hook of royal blue gold thread, and Man'er glanced at it and immediately said, "Slave maid remember, this should be sent by Yang Cairen from Haili Palace." ”

"Yang Cairen? I have only met Yang Cairen a few times at the banquet, why did she ask Xianggong to bring me something when Xianggong entered the palace? Qin Yunuan thought to herself, suddenly her eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in a low voice: "I know, this is the eldest prince in trouble in the palace, he is asking me and the prince for help;

。 ”

Qin Yunuan looked at the painting carefully again, and when Leng Changxi came back in the evening, he took out his conjecture and this strange words to study with Leng Changxi, and he had no sleep all night, but then, the two of them behaved as usual, as if nothing had happened, nothing had been seen, and the other maids in the courtyard were silent.

Seven days later, it was the day when the emperor feasted the envoys of Beidi, which was intended to celebrate the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between Beidi and Daqi, ending the 50-year campaign and gunsmoke, and Leng Changxi and his wife were naturally invited.

At the banquet, the planning was staggered, but this time it was not Wanyansu, the seventh prince of Beidi, who came, but the most powerful contender for the throne of Beidi, Wanyanba, the prince of Beidi, since the old Khan of Beidi was seriously ill, it was Wanyanba who has been taking care of the Beidi court, and this time the establishment of diplomatic relations, Wanyanba is also the most powerful promoter and main advocate.

is different from Wanyan Su's Sinicization and elegance, Wanyan Ba, as his name suggests, is extremely rough and heroic at the banquet, drinking wine in a big bowl and eating meat in a big bowl, completely ignoring that he is in the Central Plains where the rules and etiquette are quite strict.

"Emperor of Daqi, your women here are really good-looking, my favorite is the one opposite." Wan Yan Ba suddenly pointed at Qin Yunuan, that obscene vision was a kind of evil wolf's desire to see its prey, Wan Yan Ba smacked his tongue, and couldn't help but admire: "Look, this little nose and small mouth, born with white flowers, like a white tofu, is really much better looking than our Beidi women who can only ride horses and fight, it is really lovely, I want to see it again." ”

Before Emperor Zhaoxuan could say anything, he slammed into the ground, and an ivory carved gold chopsticks shot straight from the opposite side of Wan Yan Ba, looking like it was almost piercing Wan Yan Ba's left eyeball, but it was suddenly crooked, and it shot into the big red pillar behind Wan Yan Ba, and it was three points into the wood, you can imagine how terrifying the hand strength of the person who threw the chopsticks was.

"The Great Prince of Beidi" Leng Changxi opened leisurely. , The hand that threw the chopsticks has been elegantly and leisurely served a golden wine cup again, "This is the palace of our Daqi, you have a fancy to my Leng Changxi's woman, you are drinking rice wine made from the grain produced by the people of our Daqi, what do you say, it is best to look at the place, otherwise, I dare not guarantee that my next chopsticks will not be so biased." Leng Changxi drank half of it, raised his eyes and looked at Wan Yanba coldly, staring straight at his left eyeball, as if he was looking at a trophy.

Wan Yanba only felt a burning sensation in his left eye, and wanted to get up angrily, but he was persuaded by the civil officials who were on the same envoy beside him.

"I can't help the eldest prince, have you forgotten our defeat at Jialing Pass? At that time, it was the cold general in front of him who led the troops, and the 200,000 army was wiped out against the 50,000 remnants. ”

Wanyan Ba stared at Leng Changxi viciously for a long time, slapped the table, and said to Emperor Zhaoxuan: "Okay, the emperor of Daqi, it is really blessed by God that you Daqi can have such talents, but I just want to see my little sister who married Daqi, the little princess of our Khan's favorite, this request is not excessive." ”

When Qin Yunuan heard this, her hand was stunned, and then she heard Queen Chen smile and say: "It's really unfortunate, now that Saichun is pregnant, she has severe morning sickness, and she hasn't been out of Jingxi Palace for more than half a month, no, even the eldest prince has been by her side, and she has never left the palace for half a step." ”

"Then I'll go to your palace to see her." Wan Yanba is a little impatient.

"This, it's not very appropriate," Empress Chen explained, "Now that Princess Saichun is already the princess of Daqi, that is the female dependents in the palace, and she can't meet with men outside the palace at will." ”

At this time, Qin Yunuan had already left the banquet under the pretext of being unwell, and rushed towards a sparsely populated place, she knew that there must be someone waiting for her.
