In the Jinghua Palace, where the prince handled government affairs, Li Qingning, the third master of the Marquis of Chang'an, was talking to the prince and others with a distressed look about his second sister-in-law to persuade Li Ran.

“…… In this way, I was not persuaded to go in a word, but she was noisy, my second sister-in-law was annoyed or something, if I hadn't told the prince carefully, she wouldn't mention a word. ”

"She's not wrong about what she said, it's just too straightforward." Huo Wencan, the third prince of the Hejian County Palace, folded his fan and pointed at Li Qingning, said with a smile, and looked at the prince again, "He is a smart person." ”

The prince snorted.

"What's right? It's not bad that you don't even recognize your elders? Li Qingning said angrily: "The wife is angry, if it weren't for the persuasion of A-Niang, this tone would not have come up, our family has never had such an unfilial person." ”

"Your wife looks like an elder?" Huo Wencan said unceremoniously, "Father's kindness and filial piety, father's kindness is ahead." ”

"You bastard, if you say so, then there is still a righteous minister." Li Qingning was even more unceremonious.

"The change of dynasty is mostly due to the injustice of the king." The prince answered.

Li Qingning swallowed and stopped talking.

"Do you still have this winter coat in your house? I heard that before today, that girl didn't even have a charcoal pot in her house? The prince looked at Li Qingning and asked.

Li Qingning blushed, "I only heard about the charcoal basin today, winter clothes, I haven't heard of doing it or not, our family doesn't make winter clothes every year, and my wife and aunt are very thrifty." ”

Huo Wencan sneered, and Li Qingning glared at him fiercely.

The crown prince glanced at Li Qingning and sighed, "The emperor explained to your father yesterday, so I don't need to say more." You just said that this elder is not an elder, you are the brother of that girl, how is your brother doing? Your sister is frozen until now, you don't know? Brother and friend, how are you doing? ”

Li Qingning's face suddenly turned red.

"How did your sister grow up, you also know something, her few words are unavoidable, it doesn't seem to be a lie, no matter whose fault it is, no matter where it starts, she is really innocent, your wife and your aunt, it's too much, and it's a little ...... Not on the table. ”

The next two words came to the prince's mouth, and he swallowed them back, and he changed the sentence to not be on the table.

"Yes." Li Qingning hung his head, his face flushed.

"The emperor sent a message to take her back, there are indeed some other plans, with private and public, your mother-in-law, your mother-in-law, your family, should not treat her like this, you go back and tell your mother-in-law and your mother-in-law."

"Yes." Li Qingning's head hung even lower.

"His wife's temper, his father can't help it, the emperor must have explained to the Marquis of Chang'an, it's not ......" Huo Wencan said for Li Qingning.

"Your sister is about the same age as her," the prince looked at Huo Wencan and said, "Let your sister mention the third girl of the Li family, her aunt belongs to her aunt, and their sisters should get along well."

Also, ask your sister to invite her a few times, and take her to meet some little girls of the same age in the capital, if you can make a few good ......."

The prince's words paused.

Just listening to what this girl and her second sister-in-law said, you know that she is an extremely clear, but also extremely indifferent and harsh character, not to mention the little girl of about the same age, even if she is old, I am afraid that it is extremely difficult to find someone who can talk to her.

"Alas," the prince couldn't help but sigh, "it's best to make friends, even if there is nothing to say, it's better to walk around and walk around." She's a poor person. ”

"Yes." Huo Wencan listened intently and agreed.

Huo Wencan returned to the Hejian County Mansion and went straight to see his mother, Princess Du.

After listening to her son, Princess Du furrowed her brows and looked at her eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Cao.

Mrs. Cao also frowned when she met Princess Du's gaze, "Last time, it was Niangniang, but this time, the prince spoke." ”

"Ugh." Princess Du sighed, looked at Huo Wencan and said, "I'll discuss with your sister-in-law, you, alas, forget it, you don't need me to explain to you again, you can go." ”

Huo Wencan withdrew in response.

"Forget about the last time the mother spoke, it wasn't just with our family, today the prince said this......" Mrs. Cao looked at Princess Du worriedly.

"Don't think about it too much, didn't Can'er say it just now, he and Brother Li were there at the time, so naturally he ordered him." Princess Du said this, but her face was not relaxed at all.

"That's what I thought too." Mrs. Cao's words picked up quickly, "Didn't the third child say that he told the prince that this daughter-in-law should choose one that he is satisfied with?" It's too much of a nod.

Besides, I and the second grandmother of the Li family are cousins of a grandfather, and we are related to the Li family, and it is a bit impossible to get married. A-Niang wants to open some. ”

"That's right." Princess Du's face softened slightly, and after a moment, she sighed again, "The Li family is actually a good family, it's not that I look down on their family, it's just that the third sister of his family can't go with Brother Can."

Brother Can doesn't have the same good temper as the third brother of the Wang family, if he really marries back, how can Brother Can'er get along well with his temper? If you have wronged the third sister of the Li family, you will not get married, but become a feud. ”

"That's it, the old lady and Mrs. Li family both love their children very much." Mrs. Cao couldn't help but sigh when she thought of the old lady and lady of the Li family.

Why are these two so stubborn, his third sister and Brother Can are not suitable, and his third brother and Sister Lin are even more inappropriate, why can't these two understand?

"Let's not talk about this first, the prince spoke, Sister Lin'er is a treat, you can't delay, you have to send the post out tomorrow, let's discuss, which ones to invite." Princess Du waved her hand, as if she wanted to shake away the worries and worries.

"The prince's words are to make friends with that girl who can walk and talk, and the six ladies of the Wang family have to be invited." Mrs. Cao immediately entered the situation.

"Well, the Sun family and the Yang family also have to be invited." Princess Du nodded.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussed carefully for most of the hour, and thought of everything they could think of, so they sent someone to call Princess Du's only daughter, Huo Wenlin, the eldest lady, to come over and explain to her in detail.

……………………

For the first time in her life, Li Ran received an invitation in addition to a wedding invitation.

Li Ran had no idea about the name of Huo Wenlin, who signed the invitation, and had no clue about the cause of this incident.

She only knew that this Huo Wenlin had given her and the third lady Li Qingrou an invitation each, which was said by the mother-in-law who sent the invitation.

What's more, the mother-in-law who sent the invitation was brought over by the little girl in Rongxuan Courtyard, and the mother-in-law said that she would first greet the old lady and Mrs. before coming to her.

Li Ran pinched the invitation and shook it slowly.

To go, or not to go?

It's easy not to go, but why not?

If you go, how do you go? Will the old lady and lady in this mansion arrange for her to go out? If she doesn't arrange it, she will have to figure out how to go by herself.

Well, let's see tomorrow morning.

Li Ran threw the invitation on the kang table and continued to read.

Qiu Yue stood by the smoker, squinting at Li Ran.

The girl received such a big event as an invitation, she had to see it clearly, and when she reported to the old lady and the lady for a while, what the girl said and did, and what her expression was, she had to be able to say it clearly.

Until breakfast the next day, no one talked about the invitation and whether Li Ran went to the Hejian County Palace.

Li Ran didn't know whether Huo Wenlin was a treat, whether he would go over after breakfast, or if he would go over after lunch.

The invitation only wrote that she was invited to come over for a small gathering, how to enjoy the flowers and tea.

She decided to go after breakfast and walked over.

She loves to walk.

It doesn't seem too close to the Hejian County Palace, so go out early, stroll all the way, and arrive at the Hejian County Palace, almost noon.

If this little gathering starts in the morning, then she will be late, and if it starts in the afternoon, she will arrive a little early, which is appropriate.

Li Ran ate breakfast unhurriedly, put on the clolac pigment satin cloak, took the hand stove, and lifted the curtain to go out.

"Where is the girl? Is it going to the bookstore? Qiu Yue hurriedly followed and asked.

Li Ran hummed paradoxically.

She went out without permission again, Qiuyue didn't know that it was better than knowing, wouldn't it be a sin if she didn't know.

Qiu Yue grabbed a cloak and put it on, and hurriedly followed Li Ran.

Since the morning, Zhou E, who has been standing in the yard and concentrating on the flowers and plants, also followed.

She knew about the post, according to her experience, it was impossible to say whether this girl would go or not, she had to follow her plan and get ready to wait for her to go out early.

Qiu Yue saw Li Ran go straight out of the courtyard gate, and went straight to the second gate, stunned, turned her head and saw Zhou E, and suddenly seemed to have a life-saving straw, "Annoying Aunt Zhou looking at the girl, I'll go and report to the old lady!" ”

Qiu Yue didn't finish speaking, and ran away with her skirt in her arms.

Li Ran, who was walking in front, didn't seem to hear anything, and went straight forward without looking back.

Zhou E ignored Qiu Yue, turned sideways to let her go, and followed Li Ran.

Li Ran followed Zhou E, and the two went out of the mansion one after the other, Li Ran stopped, looked at Zhou E and asked, "Where is the Hejian County Palace?" ”

"Over there." Zhou E calmly raised her finger and pointed.

She really wants to go to the invitation of Mrs. Huo, is this going over?

Nine times out of ten.

Until now, this girl has not done anything according to common sense.

Li Ran held the handstove and followed Zhou E's direction, looking left and right, while walking forward unhurriedly.

From the Chang'an Marquis Mansion to the Hejian County Palace, half an hour by car, Li Ran walked and strolled, and often stopped to take a look, from the Chang'an Marquis Mansion to the Hejian County Palace, nearly two hours have passed.

The little lady gathering convened by Huo Wenlin, the eldest lady of Hejian County, will have a theme, such as worshipping the god of flowers, appreciating incense, tasting tea or something.

Of course, most of the time this theme is just a signboard.

The theme of today's little lady gathering is to pick up the wind for Li Ran.

However, Huo Wenlin didn't write this theme on the invitation, but just asked the mother-in-law who sent the invitation to say a word to everyone.

Only Li Ran and the Marquis of Chang'an didn't say anything.

didn't tell Li Ranming, it was Mrs. Cao's meaning, and Princess Du agreed very much.

The two have the same idea: it is best if Li Ran does not come to this invitation.

As a family that has been rich for several generations before the new dynasty, and it is a family that followed the emperor early, they have already been crowned hereditary princes in their mansions, and they are extremely noble.

The king of Hejian County is now in command of more than half of the army of the new dynasty, the eldest son and the second son are highly used, and the third is the prince's companion since childhood.

People like them don't need to go any further now, they should just be steady.

In a big trouble like Li Ran, who has a sensitive identity and a bad temper, they don't want to mess with the Hejian County Mansion at all.

I didn't tell Li Ran that this invitation was for her to catch the wind, because I was hoping that she didn't want to come, or couldn't come out, in short, she couldn't go to this invitation.

If you say it, this invitation is specially set up for her to catch the wind, as the host and guest, Li Ran will not come.

As for the Marquis of Chang'an's Mansion, when the prince asked Huo Wenlin to invite Li Ran, Li Qingning, the third master of the Li family, was next to him, and the Li family knew the ins and outs of this invitation, so there was no need to say more.
