Lan Beichen's face was cold, with a chill.

When the ministers heard what he had just said, they suddenly felt ridiculous!

The emperor gave a marriage, and the ninth prince sent a dowry worth millions in order to marry Xia Jinse, the daughter of Xia Xiang, which is something that the entire capital knows. The status of the Nine Princes is simply impossible to associate with a lowly fake.

Not to mention anything else, just the beautiful and fairyland-like Jin Wangfu makes everyone who knows yearn for it. This alone can prove that the things sent out by the Nine Princes are definitely not fakes!

Emperor Yuanqing was even more angry, and roared: "Xia Yanxiu, you are presumptuous!" Not only humiliated me and the Queen Mother, but also dared to say that the dowry gift given by the Nine Princes was a fake, you, you are simply lawless, too arrogant! ”

He flicked his sleeves, and the box swept to the ground, and the fake shattered with a thud!

Countless fragments splashed down, flying everywhere, and a few fell in front of Xia Yanxiu, he hurriedly picked them up and looked at them, and suddenly trembled.

Although Xia Yanxiu didn't understand jade, he had seen some of it, and the texture of this fragment seemed to be really different from the best jade.

When he was choosing before, he was dazzled by the dowry in the warehouse, and he didn't pay attention to it at all, and he didn't think about whether it was a fake. The more I look at it now, the more I feel that something is wrong, and my panicked body is cold, and my face is like ashes.

"Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince, that's not what the minister meant......"

The more panicked Xia Yanxiu became, the more stupid he became, the more confused his explanation became, and the whole person was confused.

Suddenly, he remembered something, slapped Zhao fiercely, and shouted: "The dowry gift given by the Nine Princes has always been in your care, you say, what's going on?" Did you secretly switch it! ”

Xia Yanxiu remembered that the Zhao family had already lost the family, and for the bride price, he ordered her to raise one million taels of silver, it must have been her who secretly sold the dowry of the Nine Princes, and covered it up with fakes, so he made a fool of himself in public today and committed the crime of defrauding the king!

With this slap, Xia Yanxiu's knot was so strong that Zhao was almost stunned.

She didn't dare to say anything!

In front of the emperor and the queen mother, if she said that keeping it was a capital crime, Zhao lay on the ground and cried, trembling.

"Slut, is it really you?" When Xia Yanxiu saw Zhao's appearance, he was even more determined, and he wanted to kill her.

He slapped Zhao and hit Zhao fiercely. In order to prove his loyalty, he even wanted to kill Zhao directly, hoping that the emperor could calm his anger and absolve him of responsibility.

"Father, don't fight, mother fainted...... Xia Ruxue was frightened and frightened, and pounced to protect the Zhao family. Xia Mengyao cried and kowtowed vigorously, shouting 'The emperor's forgiveness' in her mouth, and the entire hall was in chaos.

The ministers pointed and pointed, some watched the play, some were surprised, and some sneered, but they didn't expect that the high-ranking and powerful Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion would make such a joke.

If you don't have any money, you can just 'borrow' the dowry of the Nine Princes, and sell the dowry of the Nine Princes, and it was exposed on the spot...... This is actually what happened to Xia Xiang's Mansion, which is simply breathtaking.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, few people would have believed it!

Emperor Yuanqing was upset, and Empress Dowager Zhang also had a gloomy face

, a good birthday banquet, this kind of thing happened, it's really unlucky.

At this moment, Xia Jin Serian moved lightly, walked out, and bowed to Emperor Yuanqing: "The emperor is angry, the queen mother is angry, please listen to the courtiers." ”

Seeing that it was Xia Jinse who stood up, Emperor Yuanqing's face, which had been stiff, eased a little, and Empress Dowager Zhang remembered the expensive congratulatory gift given by Xia Jinse before, so she naturally had to give her a little face.

"Jinse, what do you want to explain?" Empress Dowager Zhang barely recovered a little, and took a look at her head.

The nine golden phoenix hairpins given to her were not worn on her head, and they were obviously taken off.

In fact, Empress Dowager Zhang just sent out the nine feather golden phoenix hairpins, and she regretted it a little, she was indeed impulsive. It's okay to send it out, after all, it's her lucky star, but she doesn't want to see Xia Jinse really wearing a nine-feather golden phoenix hairpin to swagger around, after all, this is an ornament that only queens can wear.

Seeing that she was so sensible, Empress Dowager Zhang nodded secretly, and had a little more affection for her.

Xia Jinse looked at Xia Yanxiu's look of asking for help, nodded imperceptibly, and said, "Father, don't worry, as long as you didn't sell the dowry of the Ninth Prince, the emperor, the Queen Mother, and the Ninth Princes will definitely not blame you." ”

Xia Yanxiu was stunned, he didn't mean that!

It wasn't him who sold it, it was the slut of the Zhao family...... But he wanted Xia Jinse to help explain it clearly, so that the emperor would believe that he was forced to be helpless, and it was she who took the initiative to talk about it, so he borrowed the dowry of the Nine Princes.

But now, it seems that using the dowry of the Nine Princes was originally his intention.

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, the dowry of the Nine Princes is definitely not a fake, although the courtiers have not seen it with their own eyes, they can be sure. The Nine Princes are noble and noble, and they don't care to deceive with fakes at all. ”

Xia Jinse half-knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice: "What the courtier's father said is also the truth, a few days ago, the courtier's daughter heard that there was an accident in her mother's house, and her grandmother was seriously ill, so she wanted to use money for treatment, so her mother was confused for a while, so she made the matter of stealing the dowry of the ninth prince." ”

"I beg the emperor to look at my mother's filial piety and not to blame her. The courtier's mother died young, and thanks to her mother's management of the house over the years, the house was peaceful and peaceful......"

Suddenly, someone wondered: "I heard that not long ago, an aunt in the Xiangfu was killed, and the second son of Xia Xiang also had an accident, is this still called the peace of the house?" I really don't know how Mrs. Xia Xiang is housekeeping! ”

"This ......" Xia Jinse didn't speak, but secretly said that this person said it well.

This is not something she shakes out, it has nothing to do with her!

"And such a thing?" Even Emperor Yuanqing and Empress Dowager Zhang were moved, they didn't expect so many things to happen in Xia Xiang's mansion, and it was difficult for him...... The poor don't even have the money to give congratulatory gifts, so they have to do this kind of thing, which is pitiful and pathetic.

Empress Dowager Zhang recited Buddha all the year round, and when she heard the words, she also sighed: "It turns out that Xia Xiang's mansion is so miserable, since this is the case, the mourning family is not to blame, Jin Se, you get up." ”

Emperor Yuanqing also waved his hand: "Xia Xiang, get up." ”

The discussion of the ministers has changed again, and I thought that Xia Xiang was so majestic and noble, but I didn't expect that the house was also a mess. Not only did the aunt die, but even the aunt died

The sons are dead, and now even the mother-in-law is going to die, could it be that there is a problem with Xia Xiang's ancestral grave, so that even the relatives and the deceased are gone, right?

Fortunately, Miss Xia has already promised to be married to the Nine Princes, otherwise, I am afraid that she will also be defeated.

The more everyone talked, the more serious they became, and some people talked about the assassination that Xia Jinse had suffered when he returned home from the border pass, but I was afraid that this was also related to the ancestral tomb of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Standing up tremblingly, Xia Yanxiu staggered, his face was as if he was about to drip blood.

It's all done by the slut of the Zhao family, if it weren't for her, how could he be so embarrassed!

really didn't have the face to continue to stay here, Xia Yanxiu hurriedly confessed, and left with the Zhao family and two daughters who pretended to be dizzy.

Finally, calm returned to the hall, and Empress Xiao immediately invited the palace people to sing and dance, the music sounded, and the dancing posture was fluttering, which swept away the aftermath just now, as if nothing unpleasant had happened.

The rest of the gifts were also directly omitted, and all those who brought congratulatory gifts were handed over to the Internal Affairs Department of Shoukun Palace, and Empress Dowager Zhang received everyone's hearts.

The ministers had different thoughts, and they were so easy to look forward to this opportunity, to be able to say a word to the Queen Mother in person, to curry favor, but they were ruined by the matter of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion. There are countless people who are dissatisfied, but they can't, they can only complain in private.

Xia Jinse returned to his seat, and he didn't eat anymore, just watched the palace maid dance boredly, and didn't say a word.

Lan Beichen looked at her lonely, worried that she would be affected by what happened just now, and said in a low voice: "Jinse, your face is not very good, what's wrong?" ”

"I'm fine." Xia Jinse squeezed his hand.

She's not pretending.

Xia Yanxiu is so miserable, can she still look happy? You have to be a little more restrained, so as not to be gossiped about.

Lan Beichen was relieved, he thought that this girl would be affected.

"Did you guess something happened to Cheyenne today?"

"No, if I can guess, I won't be a god!" Xia Jinse looked innocent and said: "I just helped him think of a good way when he was greedy, who knew that the Zhao family was so ruthless that he was pitted!" ”

"You!" A touch of pampering flashed in Lan Beichen's pupils.

As the birthday banquet progressed, the programs prepared by Empress Xiao and Concubine Yu for Empress Dowager Zhang were presented one by one, and the audience became more and more lively. Everyone smiled and toasted each other, and some people had the courage to come forward to toast the Empress Dowager Zhang.

At the rare birthday banquet, Empress Dowager Zhang was also happy, only letting everyone feel free, Emperor Yuanqing also talked to the ministers, gossiping about the wind and moon, talking about folk interesting things, and the atmosphere became more and more relaxed.

"Miss Xia."

At this time, someone stepped forward to talk to Xia Jinse, and when she saw it, it was Mrs. Xiaoyao Hou and Mrs. Shizi, who had half a hundred hair.

She hurriedly stood up and saluted the two: "I've seen Mrs. Xiaoyao Hou and Mrs. Shizi." ”

Mrs. Xiaoyao Hou is over fifty years old, and she already has a lot of gray hair, looking at Xia Jinse, she is grateful: "Miss Xia doesn't need to be polite, the old body is here to thank Miss Xia." Last time, thanks to Miss Xia, I saved Wushuang, and my old body was beyond retribution

……”

As she spoke, she saluted Xia Jinse, and the frightened Xia Jinse hurriedly supported her: "Don't you dare, don't you dare, the old lady is like this, isn't it tormenting the juniors?" The county lord was sick last time, and I happened to be there, so it's a trivial matter, and it's not enough to worry about it. ”

I don't know why, but I didn't see Ji Wushuang, Xia Jinse was a little strange, but he didn't want to ask more.

After saying a few more words, Mrs. Xiaoyao Hou glanced at Lan Beichen, then looked at Xia Jinse, and sighed: "Miss Xia is blessed, congratulations to Miss Xia and the Nine Princes, he has a happy day, and he must send a post to Xiaoyao Hou's Mansion." ”

Xia Jinse smiled and only said that it must be, and Mrs. Shizi said: "Mother is old, her health is not very good, and she can't stand for a long time, thank you Miss Xia, we will go back." ”

"Wait, Mrs. Shizi." Xia Jinse suddenly spoke out and stopped her.

"Miss Xia, what's the matter?" Mrs. Shizi looked at her gently.

"I have something to say, I want to talk to Mrs. Shizi, send a message in a few days, and please get together."

Although there was some surprise, Mrs. Shizi still smiled and said, "Okay, then wait for Miss Xia." ”

After speaking, she helped Mrs. Xiaoyao Hou and returned to the seat on the other side.

After that, many noblewomen came over with their daughters to talk, all of them had the intention of currying favor with Xia Jinse, the future ninth princess. Although Zuo Xiang lost face today, everyone could see that the emperor and the queen mother did not blame Xia Jinse at all.

She is already the fiancée of the Ninth Prince, and the ugly things in the Prime Minister's Mansion can't be said about Xia Jinse.

It wasn't until this meeting that Xia Jinse had the opportunity to start the plan in his heart.

All the daughters of the noble ladies who talked to her, Xia Jinse invited a few days of small gatherings to talk. Most people were a little surprised, but they felt even more honored, they didn't expect the nine princesses to be so easy to talk in the future, and they all agreed.

After a while, Xia Jinse made an appointment with twenty or thirty people.

"When did you like to spend time with them?" Lan Beichen asked her curiously.
