In Sang Weipa's heart, the eldest princess is not an ordinary woman, she is the brightest bright moon in Dahuai, she is noble, beautiful and witty, intelligent, although she is a daughter, but she is more open-minded, domineering and tenacious than men, which is heartbreaking.

I still remember that when the eldest princess was only fifteen years old, she single-handedly quelled the rebellion of the Sidan tribe.

At that time, the old patriarch of the Xidan tribe passed away due to illness, and the third brother of the old patriarch disobeyed his young nephew, intending to seize the position of the patriarch, and the Xidan tribe was divided into two factions, and almost started an internal fight, both defeated, and the eldest princess went to the Xidan tribe in person, and persuaded the third brother of the old patriarch to withdraw from the patriarchal dispute without a single soldier, and quelled the civil strife.

Isn't such an outstanding princess worthy of the young marshal Dasheng?!

He's going to help Celestia!

He would let his grandfather know that what he did was good for the eldest princess, for Dahuai, and for the Sang family.

Sanvipa raised his eyes and looked at the night sky, where the silver moon was hidden by clouds and a drizzle of rain fell in the sky.

In the thick of the night, the drizzle is like a silk mist, falling continuously, as if there is no end.

It was raining in Nanhuai, and it was also drizzling in the distant capital, and the drizzle did not stop until dawn overnight.

It's not convenient to go out on a rainy day, so Duanmu Fei just stayed at home, sitting alone by the window and watching the drizzle outside, his eyes were in a trance.

Bi Cicada came in and put two plates of dim sum, and when she saw that the girl was in a daze, she went out again without disturbing.

Duanmu Fei held a letter in his right hand, and quickly calculated in his heart: After Ah Yan pacified Nanhuai, there was still turmoil in Nanhuai that needed to be calmed and the situation to be stabilized. Conquering Nanhuai is only the first step, and the key is to completely subjugate the country.

In this way, when Ah Yan returns to the capital from Nanhuai, it will be at least the middle or second half of the year.

So......

Duanmu moved his eyebrows, withdrew his gaze, and looked at the embroidered basket placed on the side, and the basket contained an unfinished blue lotus-colored cloak.

Even if she grinds again, by that time, this cloak should be finished, right?

Thinking like this, Duanmu Fei was not in a hurry, just take his time.

She put down the letter, took the embroidered basket, and slowly picked up the embroidery thread.

She worried about what pattern to embroider for this cloak for many days, and then Han Xing gave her the idea to embroider peacocks.

Originally, she felt that the peacock was a little troublesome, especially the "eye circles" with iridescent luster at the tips of the feathers, which were too laborious to embroider.

But after thinking about it, I couldn't think of a better choice than a peacock for a while, so I decided to embroider a peacock.

This has just started to embroider the cloak, and Duanmu Fei regretted it a little.

Peacock embroidery is too cumbersome, for example, this blue embroidery thread needs to use at least a dozen kinds.

Duanmu Fei patiently picked and divided the embroidery threads, and I don't know how many times she lamented in her heart: why was she fooled by Han Xing!

After a busy stick of incense, she felt that her eyes were a little flowery, put down the embroidery thread, and looked out the window, only to find that the rain had stopped, and the air exuded a wet smell, which was sandwiched with the unique fragrance of grass and trees after the rain, and the leaves and petals in the courtyard were covered with crystal raindrops.

Almost in the next moment, Bi Chan came in again with the curtain open, and said, "Fourth girl, the people of the He family ask to see you." ”

Duanmu raised her eyebrows, looked at Bi Chan, and asked casually, "What's wrong this time?" ”

It stands to reason that my grandfather has ordered the porter not to let the He family enter the door, and there is no need to pass the court, this matter has long been spread throughout the house, and of course Bi Chan also knows, so she shouldn't come to pass for no reason.

Bi Chan's expression was a little complicated, and she replied: "Girl, the He family is kneeling outside the mansion now, and they are still pulling and pulling to make Tai ...... Let He also kneel. He refused to kneel, and now they were making trouble. The concierge is not easy to drive people away, looking at the spirit of the He family, he is afraid that something will happen, so he can only let Mrs. Liu come over first and say goodbye. ”

Duanmujun happens to be not in the mansion now, and Bi Chan can only come to Duanmufei's side.

The Duanmu family can ignore the He family, but they can't completely ignore the He family, even if the He family has just been divorced by the old lady, but blood is thicker than water, in terms of blood, the He family is still the mother of the second and third masters, and the grandmother of the sons and girls in the second and third rooms.

Duanmu Fei stood up slowly, stroked his skirt, and said with a smile: "The security in the capital is managed by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, Bi Chan, if you find someone to go to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, it will be said that there are people making trouble here." ”

"Yes, girl."

Seeing the sly smile on Duanmu Fei's face, Bi Chan silently shed tears of sympathy for the He family in her heart.

Duanmufei was not idle, and walked in the direction of the gatehouse, "I'll go over and have a look." ”

Bi Chan hurriedly and carefully opened the curtain for Duanmu Fei, Duanmu Fei looked back at the cloak that had only been embroidered with a few stitches in the back, and thought with some "regret": It's not that she's lazy, she's really busy!

Anyway, there are still a few months to go, so there's no hurry!

Duanmu walked out of the inner room happily, walking briskly.

The corner of the cicada's eyes twitched, even if she couldn't read minds, she could roughly guess what her girl was thinking: In fact, the fourth girl just wanted to be lazy and watch the excitement, right?

This cloak has been made since last year, and it has been dragged and dragged until February, and I haven't embroidered a few stitches yet.

Bi Chan sympathized with her future uncle who was far away in the south for a moment, and immediately put this matter behind her, and chased Duanmu Fei excitedly, of course, she didn't forget to send someone to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses.

The closer the master and servant got to the gate, the more lively the surroundings became.

Not only did the people in the house hear about it and came to see what was going on, but there were also many people gathered outside the house.

At this moment, the He family knelt outside the vermilion lacquer gate, and the old lady He and his wife with several sons, daughters-in-law, grandchildren and grandchildren all arrived, kneeling on the cold and wet ground with brushes and brushes, only the He family, who was wearing a rust-colored gown, gritted his teeth and stood there with his head held high.

The rain had stopped, but there were still some fine raindrops in He's hair, revealing a little embarrassment. Her cloudy eyes were filled with extremely complicated emotions, and her face was extremely ugly.

She is the lady of this mansion, and her self-esteem for so many years will never allow her to kneel here.

You can't die!

But even if she didn't kneel, just standing beside the kneeling He family like this at this moment and accepting the gazes of passers-by as if they were watching a show had already made the He family so ashamed that they wanted to dig a hole in the ground.

More than a dozen people in the He family all knelt on the ground, this scene was so eye-catching, those passers-by naturally saw it, many people stopped to look at this side, and some passing carriages also stopped, some people were curious to see what was going on here, and some people were because the streets were congested by carriages and pedestrians, and it was difficult to move an inch.

The streets of Quanyu are becoming more and more congested, and they are becoming more and more noisy, bustling, shoulder to shoulder, and everyone is pointing at the door of the He family and Duanmu Mansion, and there are many discussions:

"This mansion is the Shoufu Mansion, right?"

"Didn't you see the door plaque that says 'Duanmu', this must be Duanmu's mansion! Why do you think this family is kneeling here? Is there some grievance? ”

"If there is a grievance, shouldn't you go to Jingzhao Mansion to kneel?"

"That's it. I saw that the family kneeling on the ground were all dressed in brocade clothes, and they didn't look like ordinary people, what was wrong, they had to come to the door of Shoufu and kneel! ”

“……”

In the midst of the discussion, there was a sudden "squeak" of the door opening in front of me.

The vermilion lacquer door with twenty-five nails nailed to it was opened from the inside, and the sound immediately attracted the attention of everyone outside the door.

A petite girl, wearing a double bun and a scarlet cloak, walked out from behind the gate, crossed the high threshold, the girl's fair and delicate little face was embedded with a pair of big black and white eyes, as bright as a cold star, the corners of the mouth were curved, indescribably smart and lovely.

Of course, the He family who was kneeling on the ground also saw Duanmu Fei, they were looking forward to Duanmu Xian or Duanmu Chao or Duanmu Heng, but they didn't expect that the first person to come would be Duanmu Fei, they were all dumbfounded, surprised, and a little at a loss.

Kneeling behind Mrs. He and his wife, Mr. He and the others all looked at their parents in front of them, and Mrs. He gave He a desperate look, Mrs. He simply reached out and pulled up He's sleeve and motioned her to kneel down quickly.

"......" He Shi stiffly turned his gaze away, but he didn't see Mrs. He's eyes, like a fish in his throat, and he held his breath in his heart: She didn't even want to kneel Duanmuxian, let alone Duanmufei! Let the cheap girl in Changfang see her jokes, the eldest brother might as well kill her with a knife!

The atmosphere inside and outside the gate was a little awkward.

According to reason, even if the He family is divorced, the little He family is still the second wife of the Duanmu family, which means that the He family is still the in-laws of the Duanmu family, and the old lady He and his wife and several sons and daughters-in-law are all Duanmu Fei's elders, they kneel here, no matter what they want, Duanmu Fei should be avoided as a junior.

However, Duanmu stood on the doorstep in front of the threshold with a smile, not avoiding it, and calmly.

Since the He family tells people everywhere that she is arrogant and rude, then she is rude to the end, anyway, she is a hard backer, anyway, she doesn't care what others say about her behind her back, she just says it to her face!

Duanmu quietly looked at the He family kneeling on the ground, not only did not avoid it, but also did not let people help him.

Old Mrs. He and Mrs. He were annoyed in their hearts, and secretly scolded Duanmu Fei for relying on Cen Yin's support and disrespect, but now they have a request for others, and they want to think about it, but they don't dare to say anything.

Mrs. He gritted her teeth, raised her voice and said: "Fourth Duanmu girl, how can we say that our two families are also in-laws, why should your Duanmu family rush to kill them all!" There was bitterness in her voice.

Since 18 years ago, after ascending the throne today, the Empress Dowager He's mother is expensive by virtue of her son, and their He family's house has also ascended to heaven because of this.

How could she have thought that eighteen years later, Empress Dowager He would go to the immortals, and the title of their long house would be taken away, and she would even kneel at the door of Duanmu's house like now and beg for mercy.

Mrs. He was unwilling in her heart, and her eyes were red with anger, and she only felt that the anger in her heart was overwhelming, and her body trembled slightly.

As soon as the onlookers on the road heard that the family kneeling on the ground was the in-laws of the Duanmu family, the atmosphere became very subtle, the discussion in the crowd became more intense, and the onlookers became more curious: I don't know what the family did to offend the Duanmu family, so that the two families can't even take care of the relationship between the in-laws.

Duanmu Fei looked at Mrs. He's angry eyes, didn't even raise her eyebrows, and asked lightly, "Why are they all killed?" ”

"......" Mrs. He was dumbfounded for a while, and her face was red and white.

Three days ago, the imperial envoy Wang was raided by Dongchang.

Which of the various prefectures in Beijing does not have some unsightly private interests, Dongchang copied out a lot of terrible things as soon as he copied the house, not only that, the mouth of the Wang Imperial Envoy is really not reliable, Dongchang interrogated it a little, and the Wang Imperial Envoy confessed to their He family, saying that the impeachment of Duanmu Xian was the mastermind behind them.

Originally, impeachment was just a trivial matter, and the Dasheng Dynasty was mostly impeached by officials, if it was for this to punish the crime, it is estimated that seventy or eighty percent of the people in the court could be sent to prison, but this royal envoy actually confessed that the He family set fire to Duanmu's house in order to make evidence, so that Duanmu Xian was irrefutable.

The crime of arson can be big or small, and if it is true, the main culprit will be hanged.

They came to Duanmu Mansion this time, not only to beg for it, but also to "persecute" at the same time.

The He family and the Duanmu family are in-laws, and this time the arson in Yongxi Hall did not kill anyone, but only damaged some property, as long as the Duanmu family is not investigated, it will naturally be fine.

That's why they would rather be poked and poked in broad daylight than kneel here.

Therefore, they will let the He family kneel, after all, they kneel to the Duanmu family but have no face, but if the He family kneels, the Duanmu family still sits idly by, and the juniors in the second and third rooms will inevitably fall into the name of unfilial piety, and the Duanmu family will have to take care of it.

Of course, the He family can't talk about the arson and the unsightly little bit of caution in their hearts, and they don't answer positively, Mrs. He said pitifully: "Fourth girl Duanmu, we know that we are wrong, you can persuade your grandfather to let him let our family go for the sake of the old relationship between the two families for so many years." ”

While Mrs. He spoke, Mrs. He desperately gave He a look and told her not to stand, even if she didn't kneel, she would always "beg someone"!

He Shi clenched the string of Buddha beads in his hand tightly, and the tighter he clenched, the sense of humiliation in his heart continued to rise, like the angry waves of that stormy night, almost annihilating her.

She still vividly remembered that they had moved to the current mansion fifteen years ago, and that she had watched every plant and tree in this house grow little by little.

After she married Duanmu Xian, he was only step by step from the Hanlin Academy of Zhengqipin to the current Zhengyipin Cabinet Chief, but now Duanmu Xian kicked her away, not thinking about the love between husband and wife for decades, not thinking about her raising children for him, and now she wants her to kneel here and beg for mercy from a junior in Duanmu Fei......

Duanmu Xian is too ruthless, and the Duanmu family is too deceitful!

He Shi just wanted to turn around and leave immediately, but her feet seemed to be filled with lead and couldn't move, the He family is her maiden family, she has been divorced, the He family is the only reliance, if the He family collapses, then where else can she go?!

She is just a woman's family, she has no mother's family to rely on, she will only be bullied by others, and she only has the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha...... It's worse than death.

Die.

He Shi's heart suddenly moved, and his heartbeat pounded faster.

Yes, in addition to begging, there is also "force".

They were originally here to "force" the Duanmu family, so what's the harm in "forceing" in another way!

He resolutely raised his hand and pulled out a plum blossom golden hairpin between her hair buns, her movements were too violent, the Buddhist beads in her hand were broken, and the dozens of rosewood Buddhist beads fell like a goddess scattering flowers, and the bones rolled to the ground......

Everyone couldn't care about the Buddha beads in this place, and everyone's eyes were focused on the golden hairpin in He's hand, and the sharp hairpin tip was aimed at her neck at the moment, and her skin was slightly sunk by the hairpin tip.

"Duanmu Fei, I want to see your grandfather!" He Shi said coldly to Duanmu, his chin raised even higher, "Otherwise, ......"

As she spoke, the tip of the hairpin pressed down on her neck, and the threat was overflowing.

If she dies here today, Duanmu Xian will be charged with forcing the main room to death, even if Duanmu Xian really has evidence of arson from the He family, in the eyes of outsiders, it will only be Duanmu's intention to cover up, after all, now in public, so many people are watching it with their own eyes.

It is impossible for the Duanmu family to watch her die, so Duanmu Xian can only go around for the He family.

He's eyes were cold and gloomy, like a cold swamp quagmire, bottomless.

This scene made the people around him gasp.

When it happened suddenly, the He family was startled at first, and then showed a little thoughtfulness.

Old Lady He and Mrs. He quickly exchanged a look with each other, and secretly said that the He family did a good job!

Mrs. He secretly glanced at the two daughters-in-law, and the second Mrs. He immediately understood, and said in a loud voice: "Fourth Miss Duanmu, you quickly persuade your grandmother!" ”

Then, Mrs. He said again: "Fourth Miss Duanmu, do you want to watch your grandmother die here before you are willing!" ”

The two concubines of the He family shouted louder than the other, hoping that the onlookers around them would know that Duanmu Fei and the Duanmu family were going to force the He family to death.

When the onlookers heard that this old woman who was holding a golden hairpin and intended to commit suicide turned out to be the grandmother of the fourth Duanmu girl, they were in an uproar.

Most of the people still couldn't figure out what the situation was, and they inquired one after another, and the crowd gradually boiled.

"What the hell is going on?" A plump middle-aged woman asked the people around her in confusion.

The others were also second zhang monks who were confused, and an old woman in Tsing Yi with gray hair stretched her neck and looked at He Shi curiously, and said, "The grandmother of the fourth girl of Duanmu, isn't that the wife of Duanmu Shoufu?" But who is this family kneeling here? ”

"Does that need to be said? It must be Mrs. Duanmu's maiden family! ”

"Hey, this Duanmu family is too unpresentable. No matter what it was for, this junior forced his grandmother to commit suicide at the door of the house, which is too ugly! Another middle-aged man also came over to talk to them.

"That's it."

“……”

The voices of these passers-by inevitably came, and the cicada behind Duanmu Fei pinched the handkerchief a little nervously, looked at He Shi worriedly, and then looked at Duanmu Fei, and said secretly: If Mrs. Tai is really dead, it will be difficult to clean up. Whether it's the Duanmu family or the four girls.

Duanmu Fei looked at He Shi, who was holding a hairpin a few steps away, and frowned slightly.

At this moment, a sharp sound of breaking the air sounded, and I saw a dragon's eye-sized thing flying over, as fast as lightning, leaving only an afterimage in the air.

"Boom!"

In the next moment, the golden hairpin in He's hand came out of her fingers and fell to the ground, and almost at the same time, a walnut also fell to the ground, rolling with the Buddha beads on the ground.

Before everyone could react, a baby-faced young man dressed in black had already appeared behind He Shi and kicked her on the back knee unceremoniously.

He screamed in pain, staggered, and knelt on the wet ground, propped up on the ground with one hand, embarrassed.

The man in black, that is, Mo You, hooked a disdainful arc at the corner of his mouth, and said in his heart: If she wants to die, she should go back to the He family and die again, dying at the door of Duanmu's house, causing trouble to the four girls in vain, it is really unlucky!

"This old lady, you just have to pretend, don't pretend here, if this scares the fourth girl, can you afford it?!" Mo You deliberately sneered, and his voice was not lowered at all, "If you really want to commit suicide, you should choose a sharp hairpin!" ”

Between the words, he quickly pulled out another golden hairpin on He's hair bun and threw it on the ground, when this golden hairpin and the golden hairpin were placed together, the former hairpin head was sharp, and the latter hairpin tip was nearly half thicker than the former.

Obviously, the golden hairpin that was grabbed by the He family against his neck may be able to stab the skin with some force, but it is difficult to cut the blood, and no one can die.

Since no one can die, then her purpose of playing this method is obvious, doesn't she just want to force the Duanmu family with death?!

Such an obvious and easy thing to see, the surrounding onlookers naturally did not fail to understand, and their faces showed disdain.

A thin old man stroked his beard and said disgustedly: "This woman, she is crying, making trouble and hanging herself at every turn!" ”

"I see, this Mrs. Duanmu is out of tune, she can't go in and say anything, she has to pull her mother's family to kneel here to show people!" The other stocky young man shook his head disappreciatively.

"I listened to their tone, maybe her mother's family committed something, she wanted to force the first assistant to favoritism, right?"

“……”

He Shi only felt like a man's back when he heard this, and his face was flushed with shame.

It's not the first time Duanmu Fei has seen Mo You, and he probably guessed that this is Feng Yan's secret guard who stayed by his side, gave him an appreciative look, followed her to look at Mrs. He and his wife with a smile, and asked, "So, the big family of your mansion came to the gate of my house just to play this play?!" ”

Without waiting for the other party to answer, she dusted off her left sleeve casually and said coquettishly: "It's not as good as Jiusiban!" ”

The little girl's family made a delicate and willful appearance, which caused everyone on the street to laugh, and the laughter echoed on the power street, attracting more people to watch the excitement.

The He family seemed to have been slapped several times in the face, and their faces were extremely ugly, and they were so ashamed that they wanted to disappear out of thin air.

Mrs. He glared at He angrily, she was too angry, she could have the upper hand by kneeling with a soft body, she had to commit suicide by playing with something!

There is also this little girl from the Duanmu family, who is simply too arrogant!

What girl in this capital is her virtuous, deceiving people too much, just deceiving people too much!

Old lady He also gritted his teeth secretly, but the situation is stronger than people, their He family has no queen mother as a backer, and now only the Duanmu family can ask for it.

Old Lady He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, reluctantly squeezed out a smile, and begged again: "Fourth girl Duanmu, your grandmother is also in a hurry, and there is no intention of coercion. You and I are not only in-laws, but also blood relatives, both of whom are our own families, why bother the family to talk about two families and let others see the jokes! ”

Mrs. He also stubbornly persuaded: "Fourth girl Duanmu, your eldest brother has always treated you like a sister, if you don't look at anything else, you have to think about him, don't let his reputation be flawed!" ”

When the He family talked about Duanmuheng, Duanmufei remembered Ji Lanzhou, who was still bedridden, and his eyes darkened.

She didn't bother to pay attention to the He family, walked down the stone steps, looked straight at the He family who was kneeling on the ground, and asked lightly, "How does grandfather treat you on weekdays?" ”

Without waiting for He's answer, Duanmu Fei continued by himself: "Your 'evil disease' is not cured, have you ever been treated badly in the house?" However, you listen to the instigation of others, and you have to say that your grandfather treats you badly and makes the family uneasy! ”

When Duanmu Fei talked about "evil disease", there was no weakness on his face, and he was calm.

According to her, He's constant trouble is a "bad disease"!
