Chapter 70: Becoming a Canary

Descending the stone steps, there is a dirt road connected to the flower gallery, which is lined with pools on both sides, and only a few cobblestones are used to pave the way. Now the dirt has dried up, and only the edge of the pool is still a little damp.

In the weedy pile by the pool, it was obvious that someone had been gouged, and in the place where the weeds were removed, a small white porcelain vase was buried shallowly.

"Xiaoyun, you can help me dig this out." A conjecture suddenly surged in Jiang Liuyu's heart.

"Princess, forget it." Xiaoyun hesitated and did not step forward.

"You can see that, don't you?" Jiang Liuyu smiled bitterly, lifted the hem of her clothes and walked over by herself. "If you don't do it, then I'll do it myself."

Xiaoyun didn't have time to stop it, and Jiang Liuyu used her fingernails to dig things out. There was inevitably a little mud on her hands and skirt, but it was not as good as what she had on her hands, which made her feel sad.

The contents of the small porcelain vase were the Yuzhi paste of the county king's lady that she had just given, and it was thrown here before a pillar of incense had been made.

Even if they are discarded, it is not good to throw them somewhere, but if they have to show her on the road she must pass, do they want to tell themselves how much they despise the gifts she gives.

Xiao Yun saw that Jiang Liuyu had been staring at the small porcelain bottle in her hand, worried that she would think too much, so she hurriedly spoke out to convince her: "This is all the county king's family has eyes and does not know the pearl, and the things given by the princess are obviously the most practical, but they are not blessed, and they can't give the little county king better things." ”

"The princess of the county and I are not on good terms, I know in my heart, and now I am still sending my heart and soul up, in exchange for this result, it is no wonder." Jiang Liuyu laughed at herself and felt distressed to wipe the small porcelain bottle clean and retract it into her arms.

"What do other people's families have to do with me, in the future, I don't want to be so stupid again."

Jiang Liuyu's smile was really bitter, Xiaoyun looked scared, and hurriedly helped her to the front hall. As soon as she went to get a big oil-paper umbrella back, Jiang Liuyu took her arm, "Xiao Yun, I don't want to stay here anymore, let's go." ”

"Don't worry, princess, when I took the umbrella, I had already told the housekeeper of the county king's family to leave." Xiaoyun helped her up, Jiang Liuyu was stunned, and she helped herself out of the gate of the county king's mansion.

As soon as I walked to the gate, it was really raining in the sky, and the rain was likely to turn into a torrential rain. The lover stood under the eaves of the door of the house, and Xiaoyun held an umbrella to shield Jiang Liuyu from some of the rain that floated in from outside.

It's just that after waiting for a long time, his own carriage still hasn't come, Xiaoyun is anxious, "Princess, please wait inside, I'll go to see where the groom drove the car." ”

Jiang Liuyu stretched out her hand to catch a few drops of raindrops, "It's okay, you go, I'll wait here." ”

Xiaoyun glanced at her worriedly, holding an umbrella and about to rush into the rain curtain, but saw a groom in a white coat stumbling towards her.

"Princess, it's not good." Xiaoyun held an umbrella to separate Jiang Liuyu from the groom, "You stand a little over and don't let the cold on your body contaminate the princess." ”

"Yes." The groom hurriedly wiped the rain from his face, and reported while arching his hand, "Princess, when the little one went to catch the carriage just now, he found that the wheel of the carriage had been sawed off by someone. ”

"Originally, the rain was too strong, and I didn't notice it, but as soon as I led the horse and walked two steps, the carriage broke down, and the little one found out that he hurried over to return to the princess, what should I do."

The groom was still panting, and Xiaoyun looked a little disgusted, still using an umbrella to block Jiang Liuyu. "What to deal with, this is the mansion of the king of Yongjun, naturally I borrowed a carriage from the king of Yongjun."

"This," the groom wanted to say but stopped, and Jiang Liuyu and the others suddenly had an ominous premonition. "The people of Yongjun Wangfu said that it was raining today, and there were many people coming, and there were many people who broke the carriage on the road, and the princess was late, and the carriage had all been lent out."

"They deceive people too much, the princess is the wife of the prince, since it is so unreasonable, they also use the reason that three-year-old children don't believe us to prevaricate." Xiaoyun angrily handed the umbrella to Jiang Liuyu, "Princess, please wait, I'll go to them to theorize." ”

Jiang Liuyu held the umbrella and grabbed her with her other hand, "You don't have to go." ”

Xiaoyun was full of puzzlement, and when she looked back at her, her face was also very sad and hurt. "The people of the county king's mansion dare to shirk and lend us the carriage, naturally they would rather let the carriage run over the street than stay there as evidence, waiting for you to see."

"What then?" Xiaoyun was also a little helpless and overwhelmed.

At this time, the banquet in the palace of the county king was also over, and the ladies who had been invited to come came to the door and waited to go home. On the main road outside the mansion gate, dozens of cars were parked for a while, and they only followed their own wives and young ladies back, which made Jiang Liuyu even more desolate here.

"Princess, if we don't go with a few ladies, let's make do with a car and go back." Xiaoyun lowered his voice and spoke in Jiang Liuyu's ear, but the voice was not very loud, but it was still heard by Mrs. Gu.

"Didn't the princess leave early? Why are you still here? Isn't the carriage broken down and can't go? Mrs. Gu hid her face and chuckled, Jiang Liuyu glanced at her indifferently, "Live up to your clever calculations, could it be that your carriage was broken by you?" ”

The smile on Mrs. Gu's face froze, and she crossed her waist slightly and said viciously: "I'm just guessing, the princess doesn't want to spew blood." ”

"I'm just guessing, Madame doesn't have to overreact like that." Mrs. Gu has always been a person who is used as a gun, so she naturally will not take the initiative to do bad things. Jiang Liuyu and Mrs. Li behind them both knew about this matter.

"The princess is in a bad mood today, I can understand it," Mrs. Gu said for the first time that Jiang Liuyu couldn't do it, and she felt depressed, "It's just that the princess's car is broken, so she must be going back home with someone,"

"Exactly, could it be that Mrs. Gu is so kind and plans to ride in the same car with me?" Jiang Liuyu knew that she wanted to ridicule herself later, so she stopped her waist and cut off her words.

Mrs. Gu said a few words in her chest, very uncomfortable, and suddenly stared at her, "Princess, this is a joke, my carriage is too small to accommodate the princess's big Buddha." ”

"I never laugh with people," Jiang Liuyu straightened the broken hair on her sideburns, "I misunderstood just now, I didn't expect that a straightforward person like Mrs. Gu also likes to talk nonsense." ”

"You," Mrs. Gu almost pointed her finger at Jiang Liuyu, and Jiang Liuyu continued unhurriedly: "The rain is too heavy, Mrs. Gu, it is better to go back to the house early, lest your car break down halfway, and there will be no such eaves to block the rain." ”

"Hmph." Mrs. Gu threw up her sleeves and got into the carriage, and Mrs. Li watched the play in the back for a long time, and at this time she also came up with a fan. "The princess was so shy before, and she didn't expect to be a sharp-toothed person."

"Mrs. Li was so kind before, I didn't expect you to be a sweet-mouthed sword-bellied person." There were many people around, and Li Niangzi deliberately lowered her voice, and some things were seen through and not said, so Jiang Liuyu didn't say anything loud.

"The princess has just arrived, and she has learned a lot in the future, but I just let the princess see it clearly." Mrs. Li stood next to her with a fan and was not in a hurry to leave. Their own carriage stopped in front of them so loudly, as if they were showing off to Jiang Liuyu.

The green tea and white lotus that Jiang Liuyu saw in modern times, the main targets of the attack were all men, but he didn't expect to meet such a person in ancient times, pretending to be a white lotus in front of the ladies of various houses, he was really difficult to distinguish.

"I'm not like you." After saying that, Jiang Liuyu's heart became much more transparent. "The power and wealth that you love to pursue all your life are not worth mentioning in my eyes, and it makes little difference to me with or without them."

"I think I know a lot better than you women who are intriguing in the house."

Regarding Jiang Liuyu's outspokenness, Li Niangzi scoffed, "I used to be the same as you thought, my heart was higher than the sky, but what do you think of me now?" ”

"Mrs. Li used to be able to make tea and throw pots, and your behavior has been a model for many ladies until now, as for why it became like this, it is completely your own willingness." Jiang Liuyu ignored her words.

"It's just the canary that takes the lead in the cage, no matter how glamorous, it's just as sad." Mrs. Li looked at the raindrops in the sky, as if to say to herself, as if to warn her.

"It won't be long before the princess will become a canary."

"I won't." Jiang Liuyu was shocked, and his words were tough, but he was not completely sure.

"The princess's carriage is broken, why don't you take my carriage back to the house today?" Li Niangzi suddenly changed her words, which caught Jiang Liuyu off guard.

"No need, I've already sent someone back to the house and asked the prince to pick me up." Jiang Liuyu refused, but Li Niangzi had a playful smile on her face, "If the prince comes, will he let the princess talk to me so much here?" ”

Jiang Liuyu's heart sank, and she seemed to approve of her words as she counted the time. Jiang Liuyu couldn't count the ancient time, and Xiaoyun knew the time, but he didn't understand what they meant, so he didn't speak.

"Will it become what I said, it is not up to the princess and the prince to choose, this is the destiny of heaven." Mrs. Li whispered this, and suddenly raised her voice again.

"Princess, today is the fault of the slave family, and the relationship between you and the prince of the county is stiff, and now your carriage is broken, it is better to take the slave's car back to the house together, and the slave family will make amends to you."

The reason why she raised her voice was nothing more than because the ladies who had a good relationship with the princess of the county also left the mansion and specially said it to them.

Jiang Liuyu looked at her directing and acting coldly, and suddenly responded: "I don't complain about Mrs. Li for a long time, why do you bring it up again and again." But since Mrs. Li is so insistent, I have to trouble Mrs. to send me home. ”
