Queen Zhou's sister-in-law, Bian, entered Tangquan Palace and begged Queen Zhou to draw a red line for her niece and marry a good family.

The marriage mentioned by Bian was a marriage with the virtuous concubine, although Queen Zhou also felt that the idea of marrying was quite good, but she was not completely happy, so she did not accept it, and only asked which son of the virtuous concubine it was.

As soon as Bian heard Zhou Hou's inquiry, he felt that there was a door, and he told him how his daughter had fallen in love with the youngest son of the virtuous concubine, the Seventh Emperor Jingjin, from beginning to end, but Queen Zhou was furious and felt that her niece did not abide by the rules of the boudoir.

Fengqi Pavilion was embarrassed for a while, and Bian's expression was slightly cold. However, after all, Bian, who still came for a purpose, pulled down his face first and opened his mouth.

Regardless of his face and identity, the Bian family moved a handful of Xiudun and sat next to Queen Zhou.

"Oops, misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Bian's face was full of smiles. "Here's the thing......"

It turned out that during the grand event of all nations, the daughter of the Zhou family did not know how to get acquainted with a princess of Goguryeo, and the princess came to participate in the grand event of all nations, originally with the purpose of wanting to make peace with Daxia, and when the royal family held a banquet, the princess invited her.

It happened that on that day, His Royal Highness the Seventh and the Prince of the Golden Eagle of the Northern Kingdom competed, and the daughter of the Zhou family had never seen such a heroic young man in Great Xia. Bian couldn't watch his daughter lose weight day by day, so he asked someone to deliver a message to test the tone of the virtuous concubine.

Concubine Xiangui did not express her sons' marriages and likes and dislikes, so Bian was in a hurry to come to Tangquan Palace to beg Queen Zhou, the aunt of the Zhou family.

Bian said, dipping the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief from time to time, and he was already crying between the words.

After listening to Bian's words, although Queen Zhou nodded frequently, she was reluctant to help with this help in her heart.

Zhou Houping and the virtuous concubine are nothing more than superficial feelings, and the queen of Zhou hates the emperor for pampering the virtuous concubine too much, so today she asked her to beg, how did she pull her face.

At the beginning, his son chose a concubine, and after Zhou Hou was to add some weight to his son's succession, he showed his old face and took the initiative to marry, but after all, it was his own son.

But now the Bian family is asking for it, although they are relatives, they are not very reluctant. Zhou Hou raised his glass and took a few sips, noncommittal to Bian's request.

Bian stared at Queen Zhou, but the latter never moved, Bian was a little anxious, deliberately overturned Xiudun by himself, and then knelt on the ground and cried.

While crying, she also cried that the queen would not save her when she saw death, that she had her mother-in-law's family, that she forgot her mother's family when she got rich, and so on.

Queen Zhou hurriedly ordered someone to help Bian's up, but Bian's was like growing on the ground, and no one could help him up.

Tangquan Palace is not as large as the courtyard in the palace, and it has nothing to do with each other, and after a while, Le Shoutang sent someone to ask, what happened to the queen here, and the queen mother heard someone crying.

Queen Zhou said a few perfunctory words, only to say that her relatives came, and she cried after missing it for a long time, so she sent the little palace maid back.

After a while, the little palace maid turned back again, passed on the words of the queen mother, and brought a few gifts to the Bian family, and instructed the queen to be treated well, and not to treat her relatives badly when the New Year was approaching.

The little palace maid came and went this time, and Queen Zhou had some ideas in her heart.

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry, the virtuous concubine is there, the palace will mention it, but whether this is successful or not, the palace feels that it is not in the virtuous concubine."

"Who's that?" Bian immediately stopped crying.

Empress Zhou bowed to the rewards of the Queen Mother, and Bian got up, walked to the gifts, and flipped through them.

"Niangniang means the Queen Mother?" Bian asked with the audacity.

Empress Zhou nodded with satisfaction, but she had another idea in her heart.

Isn't it rumored that Jinhua's girl and the Seventh Prince Jing Jin are childhood sweethearts, so it is better to follow her wishes and send her away, so as not to dangle in front of the emperor every day.

"Sister-in-law, just don't forget, when you go to the palace to pay New Year's greetings, bring your niece."

Well! Bian nodded heavily, and his face was full of smiles again. In this matter, since the queen is willing to help, then there is no worry, and the queen can still ask the queen mother to go out of the mountain, which is even more stable.

Bian's family had a family banquet at noon in the Yingqi Xuan of Tangquan Palace, and under the repeated retention of the queen and Xue Jieyu, they stayed overnight, and also enjoyed the wonders of the soup springs in the Tangquan Palace, not to mention these.

On the second day, she sent Bian away, and Queen Zhou was not in a hurry to go to the virtuous concubine to mention any family affairs, but listened carefully to Qiongxin's secret report in recent days.

Listening to the report that Chen Yiqing was red, Queen Zhou couldn't help but smile.

thought to herself, this girl surnamed Chen, even if she was protected and favored by the Queen Mother, it seemed that she was useless.

is so beautiful and looks like this, but let an ordinary-looking Wang Zhen'er step on her feet, and now she is pregnant by the Wang family.

Empress Zhou shook her head and smiled again, her heart full of contempt for the Chen family.

If you listen to the secret report and listen to it again, it will be nothing more than some trivial things, Queen Zhou, after collecting her thoughts, is ready to go to the virtuous concubine for a walk.

Empress Zhou sat at the virtuous concubine for an afternoon in the name of visiting pregnancy, and finally mentioned the marriage of the seventh prince and her niece.

The virtuous concubine only said that Jing Jin was still young several times, and she had not yet left the palace to open her teeth and build a mansion, and before it was time to talk about marriage, she refused like a soft knife.

I thought that Queen Zhou would be angry, but no, Queen Zhou had already had other plans.

-------------------------------------

Time is approaching Chinese New Year's Eve, and the concubines and ladies in the palace have long returned to the palace, waiting for the arrival of the new year.

On this day, Jinhua took leave with Emperor Yude, and planned to go to Lihuayuan to kowtow to his master for a New Year, and then go to Sister Qiaoxin to spend half a day, but was robbed by Jing Jin halfway.

It wasn't until they left the Beigong Gate that Jin Hua reacted, leaning on the window of the carriage and looking out, the Beigong Gate was getting farther and farther away, and Jin Hua finally felt that this was real.

Why is it said to be a robbery? Jing Jin's real disaster, when no one was around, he picked up Jinhua and got into the car, and when Jinhua struggled, he reported his name, and then giggled.

"Bad billet!" Jinhua threw a cushion at Jing Jin.

Jing Jin just looked at her and smirked, without saying a word.

"I'm still better with Sister Qiaoxin, I went to see her embroidery in the afternoon, you caught me, I'm going to miss the appointment. Yes! ”

Another one was in the air, Jinhua had already fallen into Jing Jin's arms, Jinhua broke free, and lost another cushion.

"Be respectful! Seven Highnesses! Jinhua pouted.

"Oh, by the way, you're about to become my concubine, can't you get close yet?" Jing Jin said.

Jin Hua's heart was bumped with a deer, and his face was slightly red.

"Which one is going to be your concubine, don't talk nonsense." Jinhua turned his face away and looked out the window.

It snowed a few days ago, and there was still some snow on the road, but fortunately the sun was shining today, and the snow looked very good, this was Jinhua entered the palace for so many years, and it was the first time to see the winter capital, no, it was the first time to walk into the winter capital.

Now it is after lunch, the streets of the capital are still quite lively, all kinds of people are walking on the road, and it is about to be the New Year, most of them are buying New Year's goods.

When they passed by a pastry shop, there was a long queue of more than 200 meters, and Jinhua was stunned.

"Brother Jin, look, what is it selling there? There are so many people lined up. ”

Jing Jin also looked out.

"I want to sell cooked food New Year's goods, the people of Beijing have a particular idea, the New Year does not use fireworks as the staple food, and it is best not to use a knife, during the New Year, only one hot food is hot every day, steamed bean buns These are the staple food, and most of the dishes are stored food, such as cooked food stewed in advance, fried cooked food, etc."

"And this is exquisite, but there is new food in the palace every day." Jinhua asked.

"In fact, the palace is also so particular, but there are too many people in the palace, if you save food, I don't know how much to save, but it is true that the palace does not kill during the New Year." Jing Jin patiently explained.

During the chat, the carriage had gradually stopped, and Xiao Dezi echoed through the curtain, and Jing Jin took Jinhua's hand and walked out of the car.

The car stopped in front of a large red-painted gate, which had no plaque, and only one or two small servants stood under the door.

Seeing that it was His Highness the Seventh, the two little servants hurriedly stepped forward and said goodbye.

"Brother Jin, this is here?" Jinhua asked.

Jing Jin only smiled, did not speak, and also gave Xiao Dezi and the others a look.

"This is the newly bought house of the eldest uncle Fuwang, let me help to inspect it, thinking that you are okay today, I will kidnap you over to take a look together."

As soon as Jing Jin's words landed, Xiao Dezi laughed out on the side, Jing Jin gave a look, and Xiao Dezi quickly restrained his smile.

So Jing Jin took Jinhua's hand and walked to the courtyard, although this mansion has not yet been inhabited by the owner, but some miscellaneous servants have already entered the house, and now the mansion has long been cleaned up.

There are a total of five before and after this house, the first is the courtyard for receiving guests and the host's affairs, and the fourth is a two-storey pavilion divided into east and west courtyards, one is the show building of the specification woman, and the other is the treasure pavilion, which should be the place where the owner stores his belongings.

Jing Jin first took Jinhua to take a stroll around these places, when Jinhua saw the garden of this mansion, he was so surprised that he couldn't do it, although there were no flowers and plants in winter, but who was not surprised in the face of such a large private garden?

This is the fifth courtyard of the mansion, which is a large irregularly shaped garden with a large private lake to the west.

The layout of the garden is not to mention, just talking about the bay of lake water, it is already very happy, very big, think about the summer can be boating on it to pick lotus, but also can row to the lake pavilion to enjoy the cool poetry and play the piano...... Wait, it's not a good thing to look forward to.

And this bay pond water is living water, throughout the whole garden, the southeast of the garden, there is a small pond, there is a pavilion on the edge of the small pond, called the flow cup pavilion, is taken from the Eastern Jin Dynasty Wang Xizhi's taste, flow cup as a gift.

On the east side of the garden, there is a study with bamboo grass as a fence, which is very ancient, and the back of the study is a big theater building that is hidden, which is really embarrassing.

After seeing these, Jing Jinfang led Jinhua to the master room of the second and third entrances, and the two courtyards were respectively the main hall and the east and west courtyards.

Jing Jin couldn't help but say, and directly led Jinhua to the first courtyard of the East Cross Courtyard, only to see the four words "Splendid Steaming" written on the plaque of the gate of the courtyard, and at a glance, the plaque of the main hall inside was written "Prosperous".

In an instant, Jinhua seemed to think of something, she broke free from the hand that was being held by Jing Jin, and then held him back, and her eyes met his ......
