On the stairs of the flocculent platform, Lin Jinghuang, the pearl of the empire dressed in ordinary clothes, said to Luo Qing: "Don't talk nonsense, let's go quickly." ”

Luo Qing, who was wearing men's clothes, smiled when he passed by the snow, and the snow with a tight headbag lowered his head when he looked at the eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything.

went up to the second floor, the three of them looked down at a glance, and everyone below looked up, and when they saw Lin Jinghuang's slightly frowning brows, everyone pretended to look away inadvertently, but there were still whispers.

Xue Chichi is from an extraordinary background, and there are naturally many people who know her, not to mention the guard who recognized her, but also someone who recognized her by the veil on her face, and there are only a few women who can walk with Lin Jinghuang.

The capital is not a pedantic mountain village, the only possibility for a woman to be masked is that she can't see people or is inconvenient to see people, it just so happens that Xue Chi was beaten before lunch, it is said that she cried all the way back, provoking many people to hide behind the window along the way to watch, Xue Chi Chi walked all the way crying all the way to the strange degree comparable to a tiger vegetarian.

There are also a lot of people coming up on the second floor one after another, Zhang Mingyu of the general Zhengnan's family and Yang Siyao, the cousin of the Shoufu family, came up from the stairs on the other side, the two families have the same status, just across the street, and they are cousins, so there are a lot of contacts, Yang Siyao and Zhang Mingyu have been fighting like this all these years.

The people of the capital are simple and cheerful, and there are not so many pedantic old stubborn fingers at the juniors, even the girls who come out of the Qinglou will not be subjected to too much pointing and abuse, and many times the people will feel that they are all hard-working people, and they can give some help.

Because of this, many people will mention when they joke that the women in the Qinglou in the capital buy vegetables cheaper than the women from good families; The local traders and women of good families in the city will bargain to the death, but when they meet poor people, they will lower the price, or give some onions and garlic at will.

The older generation is not pedantic and mean, then the younger generation will grow up in a good environment, although there are differences between men and women, but Yang Siyao and his cousin Zhang Mingyu often play together, and others will say that the relationship between the two is good rather than thinking about unclean places.

Although most of the people in the capital are tolerant, the only accident is that Xue Chi Chi is not good at embroidery as well as Xue Chi Chi, and there are many women who do not know poetry, calligraphy and painting, Yang Siyao is one, Yang Siyao dreams of making meritorious contributions, and the person she despises the most in her life is her father who is a civil official.

The people that the small Yang Siyao admires the most are the champion Hou and his uncle General Zhengnanda, the champion Hou is inconvenient for her to contact, but her uncle can, so she grew up in her aunt's house when she was a child, which is also the reason why most cousins are polite when they see their cousins, but the two of them can fight without saying a word.

As for why Xue has not been able to enjoy this kind of tolerance for a long time, it is not that others deliberately discriminate against her, but that there is no way to discriminate against her.

It's not easy to scold, after all, Xue Chichi is a woman, not to mention that if you want to scold, it is easy to bring it to the female family members as soon as you open your mouth, who are those female family members of Xue Chichi? The empire does not have a different surname, and the title of Marquis of Snow has not been removed for thousands of years, who dares to scold such a family? Therefore, the bullied who dare not beat or scold can only laugh a few words and be angry.

Yang Siyao hugged his cousin's arm, "You will be kind to Sister Mingyue in the future, she is your fiancée, not an outsider, can others live with you for the rest of your life?" A man who is not good to his daughter-in-law is too selfish. ”

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Zhang Mingyu's long aura is extraordinary, most of the children of the big families in the world are not ugly, the daughters-in-law married in powerful families are beautiful, and the children born to beautiful daughters-in-law are not ugly.

Yang Siyao was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "It's not that I teach you to do things, it's that you should do this, a responsible man will definitely protect his woman, how could you say that to Sister Mingyue in public yesterday?" Even if you think she's not right, you can say it in private. ”

"Get out of the way, don't talk to me like this, you keep it and tell your future husband, my future cousin-in-law just knows that he loves women, and you don't care about your cousin and me." Zhang Mingyu slapped the hand off his arm.

Yang Siyao was not annoyed, and made a grimace and said: "You don't hurt her, be careful when Sister Mingyue runs away with someone one day, and put a big hat on you when the time comes." ”

"You ......" Zhang Mingyu instantly became angry again, and said coldly: "Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to break off your friendship with me?" Why are you pulling me here, what are you doing so close? ”

Yang Siyao instantly let go of the hand holding Zhang Mingyu, but instantly grabbed the young man's two hands and shook them gently, and said with a smile: "We are cousins and sisters, we have played since we were children, and when we get married, we can't be so close, I will accompany you more." ”

Zhang Mingyu saw the three figures opposite, instantly recognized Lin Jinghuang, and looked carefully at the two people who had been participating in Lin Jinghuang for a hundred years, but he couldn't recognize who the two people were, and he didn't take it seriously, so he turned to Yang Siyao beside him and said: "Cut, there is nothing to be courteous or a thief, you really don't know why you have to come with me?" ”

"What can it be?" Yang Siyao, who was wearing a small yellow dress, tilted her head, she was not tall, and Zhang Mingyu was very tall, so she could only see his chin.

"I got a good sword last night, and it is suitable for women, you want this sword, and I saw that there is a pendant in the things in today's auction, which belonged to a female general many years ago, and the female general left a pair, and you got one, so it is inevitable to get the rest of it, but you are worried that your money is not enough, so you have to pull me."

Zhang Mingyu glanced at Yang Siyao with disdain, found a hall and went in to rest, several people in the small hall saw Yang Shoufu's only daughter and the only son of the general Zhengnan and hurriedly got up to give up their seats, Zhang Mingyu had a good temperament, and after seeing the salute, he found a place to sit down.

Yang Siyao took a stool and sat next to Zhang Mingyu, beat Zhang Mingyu's leg on the back very doggedly, and said coquettishly: "Okay, you don't have anything to buy, I'll pay you back when I have the money." ”

"How do you know I don't have anything to buy? I'm going to buy more. Zhang Mingyu reached out and took a booklet on the table, which was printed with today's auction items, except for the last treasure that was not announced, the others were all on this booklet, and stretched out his hand to show Yang Siyao with a flattering face: "This, this, this, and this I like it." ”

Yang Siyao looked at Zhang Mingyu and pointed out the things he wanted to buy one by one, his face gradually darkened, Zhang Mingyu had a lot of money, she probably knew, and as soon as a few things were calculated, there was no remaining money to lend to herself, and she took out a small silver pendant inlaid with rubies from her arms and put it in the palm of her hand to show Zhang Mingyu, and flattered her again:

"Cousin, you can buy these things on weekdays, the pendant they auctioned today was salvaged from the shipwreck, there is a total of one pair of pendants, except for the one in my hand, there is only one left to be auctioned, and I can't buy it anywhere else, I like this pendant very much, you know."

"Why should I influence the rhythm of my own life for you?"

Several other people in the hall saw that the two of them were discussing what they were going to shoot later, and felt that it was not appropriate to stay here, so they went outside to chat.

Yang Siyao in the house saw that Zhang Mingyu just didn't let go, kicked him hard, and said: "Stingy ghost, Sister Mingyue is unlucky to marry you." ”

Zhang Mingyu crossed Erlang's legs, looked at Yang Siyao and pouted, the girl was small, her face was also very small, her eyes were very big, but her nose and mouth and ears were very small, and her heart suddenly jumped twice quickly, and she said close to Yang Siyao's tearful eyes: "If it weren't for the fear that the emperor would suspect that our civil and military families would join forces to make it bigger, you should be mine." ”

Yang Siyao was stunned suddenly, then hurriedly lowered his head, looked up at Zhang Mingyu's eyes again, and then lowered his head again, this time he didn't raise it anymore, only made a sound as thin as a mosquito and a fly: "Don't talk nonsense, be careful of being heard." ”

The young man dressed in black stretched out his hand to pick the chin of the girl in front of him, and said affectionately: "I'm not afraid of hardship and despair, are you afraid of living a hard life?" ”

Yang Siyao said I went to get a breath and then panicked out of the room, Zhang Mingyu looked at the little man in yellow, a little lost, turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window, green leaves, flowing like water, he knew that Yang Siyao was not as stupid as it appeared, and their whole family was hiding clumsy.

There is no such thing as power, but if there is more, it will become a steel knife hanging on your head, the empire is about to change the master, and the first thing the new emperor will do when he takes office is to promote his own people, so the henchmen of the previous emperor are more or less in the way.

Once the Son of Heaven was a courtier, if the Son of Heaven was replaced, he would naturally have to change his ministers, and the head of the Yang family was the first assistant, and no matter how much power he had in his hands, he would become the emperor, so he could only try his best to let it out, and incompetence was the best excuse.

After a long time, Yang Siyao returned to the room, Zhang Mingyu said to her, her cousin was just abrupt, don't go to heart, the girl nodded and didn't speak.

On the corridor opposite, Lin Jinghuang stood for a long time, Luo Qing kept a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth, and seemed to be absent-minded about anything, she was a person from the Daomen, and the strongest talent recognized by the Daomen was that the Chongyang Zhenren and the Qingxu Guan Lord, who had been rejected by her, also promised to protect the Dao for her.

"Thinking about your master?" Luo Qing suddenly approached Lin Jinghuang.

Lin Jinghuang raised his eyes, but didn't speak, and said after a long time: "Let's go in and see what he looks like, listen to what the old lady says." ”

"yes, okay." Luo Qing lowered his eyes slightly and asked a maid passing by, "Where is the eldest prince of Yun?" ”

As soon as the maid heard it, she knew that it was the eldest prince of Xueyu Villa, and after pointing to the next room, she bowed over, and waited until Lin Jinghuang and the three of them walked away before raising her head.

Xue Chi Chi watched the small tea hall pointed out by the maid getting closer and closer, and after a moment of confusion in her thoughts, she stopped, "You guys go in, I don't want to see them." ”

Lin Jinghuang was expressionless, nodded and followed Luo Qing in.
