Chapter 169: Hiding a knife in a smile

The story that Yan Liu told happened every day in Daheli, but it was presented by a variety of other endless tricks, and the banquet dispersed, and the queen left all the women and relatives who went to the banquet today, and took a group of people to the imperial garden to carry out this happy event.

Like the previous courtiers who greeted the emperor, when they arrived at the imperial garden, the queen became the object of competition among the wives, and the concubine Chang, whose mother was expensive by her son, was also touted by many people in this welcoming voice.

"I said that Mrs. Shen is really a good fate, Ruyi Langjun, who married General Shen, only had good news in four months, and this will be this time next year, Mrs. Shen will even be able to hold the child, Princess Rui, you say yes!" The person who spoke was the wife of the queen's sister-in-law, her uncle Zhang Tingyu, and the meaning of these words, without thinking carefully, Du Yiyi could also hear the meaning of a needle to Mai Mang.

"Mrs. Zhang is right, sister-in-law is a rich and noble person, and it is normal to have good news in four months with a big lucky star like Shen Ke as her husband!"

Du Yiyi's smile is like a delicate rose blooming on her cheeks, and her graceful eyes are full of smiles.

Seeing that Du Yiyi was not the slightest bleak and sentimental, the uncle and wife were stunned for a while, and only after a while did they respond that it was.

"Don't just talk about Mrs. Shen, Princess Rui is also a person who will bring lucky stars, you see, when His Royal Highness King Rui got married, he took Princess Rui to Lingyin Temple to repay Concubine Su's wishes, I heard that His Royal Highness King Rui asked the emperor for marriage, but he used the words Feiqing not marrying! This affection is so profound that it really makes me envious! ”

Du Yiyi glanced sideways at the person who spoke, the woman lowered her hair and smiled, covered her face with her sleeves, and a slender silk twinkle on her hair sparkled brightly, and the fan reflecting the ivory bone was even more shining. With his head tilted slightly, the jade-colored bead pendant and the gold leaf as thin as a melon seed were also gently shaken, flashing with bright and green waves. This person, if she remembers it well, Fang is sitting beside Yun Donggui, the imperial history of the capital, this should be Mrs. Yun.

"Mrs. Yun is right, Princess Rui and His Royal Highness King Rui are a good match, but they are very affectionate!"

This sentence of love is deep and meaningful, a sentence of affection, so that the ladies sitting around are pursed lips and smiled, who doesn't know that King Rui married only one month to accept Qinglan, and then a purple moon, I heard that the two of them have lived in separate rooms since they got married, one lives in the front yard and the other lives in the backyard, and they don't meet at all on weekdays, so how to come to the word love.

Hearing the word marriage, the queen's face flashed a trace of unhappiness, but seeing that these words caused the ladies to laugh, she also smiled, and looked at Du Yiyi's eyes a little more comfortable.

Du Yiyi had a face, and the words of this group of people made her smile silently. Lu Xiangxue glanced at the smile on the corner of the lady's mouth in this pavilion, gently wiped the tea on her lips with a handkerchief, and said with a blank face: "All the ladies are also in harmony with your husband Jun Qinse, why do you have to envy us, Mrs. Zhang, I heard that Uncle Guo has been sick for the past few days, and I haven't seen him come forward today, and I don't know what Uncle Guo's condition is?" ”

"Mrs. Lao Shen is worried, the weather has changed greatly, and my lord is infected with the wind and cold, don't get in the way, don't get in the way!"

Lu Xiangxue's words made the ladies who lowered their heads and chuckled all smile, and Du Yiyi lowered her eyes and smiled, but did not respond.

"The weather has been unpredictable these days, all the ladies should be careful, don't attract the wind!" Lu Xiangxue smiled pleasantly, her eyes were infinitely shining, and in Yingying's smile, everyone was speechless.

"Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, when the imperial city will set off fireworks at the four city gates to enjoy with the people, you must go and see if you are interested." Queen Mother, her husband's injuries have not healed, please forgive Xiangxue for not staying for a long time, Xiangxue will retire! Lu Xiangxue raised her sleeves and got up, and the lotus step moved lightly, and she was blessed.

"General Shen was injured for the country, and the palace has never had time to visit, Liu Hua, you go and get the thousand-year-old ginseng that the emperor rewarded last time." The queen pursed her lips and smiled, and said kindly: "Mrs. Shen will stay for a while, wait for Liu Hua to take the ginseng, and bring it to General Shen!" ”

Seeing Aunt Liu leave in a hurry, Uncle Guo's wife bit her lip secretly, looking at Lu Xiangxue's eyes full of resentment, her lord worked hard for the queen to be infected with the wind and cold, and the queen only asked and cared for two sentences, Shen Ke was an outsider, but the queen gave Lu Xiangxue the rare thousand-year-old ginseng, and when she remembered that she and her lord had worked tirelessly for the queen's mother and son over the years, Fan was not as good as an outsider, she felt that she didn't know what it was like.

"Queen Qiyu, the husband's injury is no longer a big problem, he only needs to recuperate for a few more days to heal, the thousand-year-old ginseng is a rare thing that can continue life, and it was reused at that time, and Shen Ke, but it was a bit of a tyrannical thing."

"General Shen was injured for my Dahe, don't say it's a thousand-year-old ginseng, even ten thousand gold can be obtained, as long as General Shen can recover sooner, how can he say that he is violent and ruined, and besides, no matter how rare the thousand-year-old ginseng is, where can General Shen be precious?" The queen smiled, and the Qianqianyu hand with her orchid finger picked up the tea cup in front of her.

"The queen mother is right, a heroic general like General Shen has not been left since the Holy Ancestor, compared to such mundane things, General Shen is a precious talent!" In the past, these women who were loyal to the queen all echoed their voices, and one by one they touted Shen Ke to the sky.

"Mrs. Shen is not polite, if General Shen is born and dies for my Dahe, but I Dahe is reluctant to even give up a thousand-year-old ginseng, then it must not make people laugh? Mrs. Shen is also pregnant now, and she also needs nourishment and recuperation, and when she is free in the palace in the future, she will definitely go to the palace to visit in person! ”

"That'...... Xiangxue thanked the queen for the reward on behalf of her husband! ”

The queen and her party's wife, you sing me and you, although Concubine Chang's smile is still calm and calm, her eyes are becoming more and more fierce, and finally, after she received Lu Xiangxue's words, she cut off her words.

"Mrs. Shen, last time the palace asked people to send Yunnan Cordyceps to the house, is it effective to eat? Injured in winter, I am most afraid of contracting a cold, General Shen is a rare general in my Dahe, but he must be well recuperated. ”

The information revealed by Concubine Chang's words made the proud queen's face sink, although Shen Ke said that he married King Rui, but as we all know, he didn't say much about private dealings with King Rui, even if he couldn't win over, for the sake of his son's future future, it is necessary to have a good relationship, the queen sent a thousand years of ginseng, Concubine Chang said that she had already sent Cordyceps, and Lu Xiangxue also gladly accepted it, the queen has always been incompatible, and for his son he has exhausted all his tricks, after the emperor canonized the prince, Concubine Chang was even more arrogant in the palace and didn't take her as a queen in her eyes, and now this sentence was said after her, which was undoubtedly like a slap in the face to her, which made her feel uneasy.

"Thank you Concubine Chang for your concern, I have already ground the powder and put the medicine, and after my husband has eaten it, the cough is less." Lu Xiangxue also understood what these two stammered Shen Ke meant, now that the queen and Concubine Chang are showing goodwill, she prefers no one.

"That's fine, that's fine."

Concubine Chang smiled brightly, and her voice was soft, soft and warm, as if she was about to slip into the crack of her heart.

Aunt Liu came with a wide red box and walked behind the queen, the queen sorted out her thoughts, waved her hand to Aunt Liu, and motioned for her to hand over the things to the maid behind Lu Xiangxue.

"It's really inconvenient to stay for a long time today, and I ask the queen and a few ladies to forgive me, Xiangxue has left!" Lu Xiangxue said, picking her eyes and glancing at Du Yiyi.

Du Yiyi knew that Lu Xiangxue wanted to relieve herself, so she didn't think about it at the time, got up and said: "Queen Qiqi, Yiyi suddenly felt unwell and wanted to retire first!" ”

"Look, I must want to take the opportunity to visit General Shen, and they all say that you brothers and sisters have a deep affection, this is true, not false! Unexpectedly, General Shen's injuries have not healed, so the palace will not keep you, and ask Mrs. Shen to bring a few words to General Shen, Chao Ge has no experience in leading troops, and I hope that General Shen will teach more when he has free time, and he can also contribute to the country! ”

"His Royal Highness King Chao is the commander of the left army appointed by the emperor, it can be seen that the emperor is heavy, although he has no experience in leading troops, with the wisdom and talent of His Royal Highness King Chao, it must be out of the blue, Xiangxue retired!"

"Retire according to Yiyi!"

The departure of the two sisters-in-law made the pavilion suddenly silent for a moment, waiting for someone to take the lead and make a sound, but the queen waved her hand happily, so that they continued to be happy to go back to the palace, as soon as the queen left, the group of people who supported the queen also left, Concubine Chang was touted by her people, chewing on Lu Xiangxue's words, and felt irritable, and left after listening to it for a while.

A scene is catered to by everyone, although it is not a happy ending, but at least this good show has left a shadow on everyone's hearts.

Shen Ke, the son of heaven who was once co-opted by King Rui, is still a character who is still being flattered, this young general, every step is carried by large and small military exploits, what kind of height does he have to go? When there were signs of rebellion in Tibet, the emperor pointed out the injured Shen Ke in a word, and he didn't even look at Fan Dongli Xiong Huaiyuan and others sitting on the seat.

The weight of Shen Ke in the hearts of the Son of Heaven has exceeded their imagination.

They would never have thought that after this year, the arrival of the new year was not a vigorous season, but another cold continuation.

Leaving the lively but full of hidden guns in the imperial garden, leaving the dreamlike palace of wealth standing in the wind and snow, Lu Xiangxue and Du Yiyi got into the carriage and went to the Shen Mansion.

Last time in the Shen Mansion, although Lu Xiangxue was obedient to Mrs. Lu's intentions, but the estrangement in her heart existed, and now she has relieved Du Yiyi, Du Yiyi is grateful, but it is difficult to find the feeling of closeness at the beginning, and then the lack of contact between the two has made this feeling that was once regarded by Du Yiyi as a family relationship diluted.

"Sister-in-law, just ............"

"You are a member of the Shen family, you can't be slandered like this." Lu Xiangxue's expression was the same as before, but neither of them deliberately created an atmosphere.

"Sister-in-law, let's park here! I'll just walk back! ”

Fang just met at the banquet, she was already satisfied, she was actually not a member of the Shen family.

"Be careful!" Lu Xiangxue didn't persuade her to stay, but just poked her head out to ask the coachman to stop the car, and asked Li's mother to help Du Yiyi get out of the carriage.

"My sister-in-law is now pregnant, but you have to be careful." Du Yi gathered the cloak behind him and hid his hands in the gauntlets on both sides of the cloak.

"Hmmm! Then the sister-in-law left first! ”

The carriage left slowly, pressing two deep rut marks on the flat snow, and Xu's mother hurriedly lifted the umbrella for Du Yiyi, but Du Yiyi shook her head and pushed the handle of the umbrella away.

Mother Xu knew that she was touched, reminded Shui Ping behind her, and followed Du Yiyi silently.

Everyone thought that the blizzard had passed, but it had turned all over again, and that day's sunshine was only one day. Du Yiyi stepped on the snow, faced the west wind, pursed her lips numb by the wind, and walked slowly.

Snowflakes fell on her cloak, stained on the snow-white fluff on the edge of the cloak, stained on her long black hair, and poured down, absorbing the temperature of the human body little by little, turning into the most biting ice water.

A snowflake somehow got into Du Yiyi's neck, and Du Yiyi was so cold that she hit a spirit.

It was this time when she closed her eyes and opened her eyes again, she seemed to think that she was hallucinating, and under the few locust trees in front of her, which were bent down by the heavy snow, there was a man in green clothes, holding an umbrella and standing in the snow.

How unfamiliar is this figure to her, Yan Xinglu, a talented man with dementia but amazing talent, that beautiful official book, written with lovesickness, spit lovesickness, and endless lovesickness.

This glance, like the back garden of the Shen Mansion separated by shrubs and crowds across the winding water, made my heart shock.

No matter how things change, he seems to be still the same Yan Xinglu as he was at the beginning, with proud talent and a pair of shocking eyes.

But she didn't approach, and he didn't come over, this glance at each other was Du Yiyi's hurried departure.

Mother Xu looked at the man standing under the tree, glanced at Du Yiyi who turned around and left, thinking about the rumors she heard yesterday, her eyes couldn't help but darken, who can change the things that people are destined to do?
