Chapter 123 - Listening to Weaknesses

Xia Yuqi looked at Princess Ning'an's smiling appearance, and since her heart was full of pleasure, Xia Yuqi was extremely unhappy during the days when she moved out of the Zhenguo Mansion. Although after setting up another mansion, my father was more concerned about himself, with soft jewelry, diet and daily life, which were the same as when he was in the Guogong Mansion. But this still couldn't quell Xia Yuqi's desire.

"Princess," Ino whispered in a low voice, "Is it too ...... to be like this when you first arrived in the Celestial Empire?"

"There's a big living person right in front of you, what are you worried about?" Princess Ning An replied with a chuckle. Exposing yourself too early is something that a fool would do.

"The princess is wise, but will this Miss Xia obey the princess's orders and take the responsibility for the accident?" Enoch asked, thoughtful.

"It's up to us to plan for the past two days, so we must let her be obedient." Ning An sneered and said, "Miss Xia, thank you so much today, Yinuo, and give Miss Xia the set of royal blue necklaces brought by this palace." ”

"Yes, Princess." Ino smiled and turned into the inner room, but after a moment, he took out a delicate gilt box and slowly opened it, only to see a string of royal blue flower cluster necklaces lying in the box, the necklace was chained with red gold. In the center is a large royal blue bouquet of flowers.

"Miss Xia, please see, this is our princess's favorite jewelry, all of which are natural crystals, each of which is translucent, and a total of eighteen high-quality crystals of different sizes are composed, which is quite precious." Ino said with a smile.

Xia Yuqi didn't feel that her eyes were smiling, the jewelry of the Celestial Empire was mainly gold and silver, jade, and pearls, but she had never seen such jewelry, and when she heard Yinuo say this, she felt even more like it in her heart. But he shirked and said: "Where is the princess talking about, it is the honor of the courtiers to be able to relieve the princess's worries, how can she accept such valuable jewelry from the princess." ”

"Miss Xia is going to be angry when she says this, when this palace first arrives in the Celestial Empire, she doesn't even have a lovely person. But as soon as they met, they liked Miss Xia very much, and they really wanted to make friends with Miss Xia. This is just a necklace, which is not enough to express the heart of this palace. If Miss Xia doesn't look down on this palace, then that's it. Princess Ning An said in frustration.

"Princess, it is an honor for a courtier to be loved by the princess. The princess really tormented the little girl when she said that. Xia Yuqi hurriedly said.

"Since Miss Xia is also willing in her heart, don't shirk the princess's intentions. Please also ask Miss Xia to accept it. Yinuo smiled and put the box in front of Xia Yuqi and said.

"That'...... It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, so the little girl accepted it, thank you princess. Xia Yuqi smiled and accepted the box. The joy in his eyes was not concealed in the slightest.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Ning An ordered Yinuo to send Xia Yuqi back on the grounds of fatigue.

"Princess, the slave maid looks at this Miss Xia as a good messenger. I just don't know how to make her obey the princess. Ino asked softly.

The corners of Ning An's mouth raised, a sneer floated, and he said coldly: "Do you think this Xia Yuqi likes the jewelry just now?" ”

"Of course I like it, as soon as I opened the box, my eyes were straight to the eye. Even when it is time to excuse himself, his eyes are reluctant to leave. Ino said disdainfully.

It is said that Xia Yuqi was originally in the Zhenguo Mansion, and wanted to come to the glory of the Zhenguo Mansion, what kind of jewelry has never been seen, and she is still so greedy.

"Greed is her weakness, of course, this is not enough, send someone to find out this Xia Yuqi, and what is her relationship with the Zhenguo Mansion." Ning An frowned and said.

Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated. This is a matter of one's own happiness, and it must not be taken lightly.

"Yes, the slave will arrange it. The Zhenguo Mansion and the Xia Mansion are also aristocratic families in the capital, so it won't take too much time. Ino whispered.

"There are two days left until the New Year, we can't wait, the sooner the better. It's up to you to find out for yourself this time. Ning An frowned.

"Yes, princess, the slave will act tonight." Ino obeyed.

"Well, you go and rest first." Ning An said with a smile.

"Yes, princess, the slave maid called the others to come in and serve the princess." Ino said respectfully.

"Hmm" Ning An nodded with a smile, picked up the roster sent by Bai Guifei, and looked at it carefully. I don't feel that the more I look at it, the more annoying it becomes.

"Bang!"

Ning An closed the roster heavily. There was a lot of dissatisfaction in my heart.

It seems that my aunt really doesn't plan to let this palace marry into the Zhenguo Mansion, and there is no list of Xia Yunxuan. But why? It is also their glory to marry into the Zhenguo Mansion in their own identity. Or does my aunt want to tie up with the government of the country?

-Yanxi Building-

"Do you think Princess Ning An will insist?" Yun Sheng frowned and asked, "If the current situation is followed, even if Princess Ning An makes a request for harmony at the New Year's banquet, I'm afraid my uncle will not agree." My brother wouldn't have agreed. It can be dismissed simply because the marriage has already been given. ”

"Of course we will insist, and we will design something." Bai Yinfei chuckled and picked up a piece of wife cake and said, "Sister fairy, why are you calling it a wife cake?" The name is so special. ”

According to legend, this wife cake was made by the empress Ma of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. In the early days of the uprising, because of the wars at that time, the food was often insufficient, and the army had to go from place to place to fight, in order to facilitate the sergeants to carry dry food, so Ma came up with wheat, winter melon and other edible things together, ground into flour, made cakes, and distributed them to the sergeants. It became the earliest wife cake. Yunshang explained with a smile.

"Oh, that's the origin, interesting, interesting." Bai Yinfei said with a smile and ate it one bite at a time.

He ate with relish, but Yunshang was a little anxious.

"Your Highness said that Princess Ning'an will still have a design?" Yunshang asked curiously.

"Well, Ning An is from the queen mother, and the queen mother is a ruthless character. Ning An also inherited the good temperament of the queen mother. What's more, what Ning An wanted since she was a child had to get it, and if she couldn't get it, she wouldn't mind ruining him. Bai Yinfei shrugged helplessly and said.

"Ruined?" Yunshang was shocked.

"Well, the Eighth Emperor Sister got a pair of canaries on her birthday before, and the one that looks cute is called a cute one, and the one is called a beautiful one. Hey, fairy sister, have you ever raised a canary? I'll catch a couple for you that day? Bai Yinfei laughed.

"Ahem, to the point." Jinqi glared at Bai Yinfei coldly.

Bai Yinfei pursed his lips and said, "Why are you so serious, aren't I talking about this?" In short, Ning An wants it, and of course the Eighth Emperor Sister doesn't want to. Then Ning An made an excuse and said to see, this one got his hand and fell straight to the ground, it was called a miserable, he didn't say anything when he fell to the ground, and he stomped on his feet directly. The bird is dead, one is wounded. Tsk, that's pathetic. ”

"And what about later? How was it handled? Yunshang asked with a frown.

"Forget it, at that time, the two of them retreated in the garden, and there was no way to prove it. Ning An even threatened that it was the canary that pecked him, stretched out his right hand with a small scar, and cried a miserable one. It's even more impossible now. The Eighth Emperor Sister was also reprimanded by the Queen Mother, and the mother concubine with the Eighth Emperor Sister was also trained. Bai Yinfei shook his head and said.

"So my brother will be in trouble?" Yunshang asked with a frown.

"Major General Xia and Miss Zhen are probably in trouble." Jinqi said expressionlessly.

"Well, I agree with Jinqi." Bai Yinfei nodded in agreement.

The expressions of the two made Yunsheng's brows furrow even tighter.

"There are two days left before the New Year, and I will let my brother and Lin Xuan pay more attention to these two days." Yunshang frowned.

"Well, I think Lin Xuan needs to pay more attention, Major General Xia has been through a hundred battles, so it shouldn't be a problem." Jinqi replied in a low voice.

"I'll go to my house about Linxuan in the next two days."

"Hmm"

Night gradually fell, and after Yun Shang returned home, she was worried about informing Yun Xuan of the news she knew. The two discussed for a while, and then planned to invite Lin Xuan to the Zhenguo Mansion in the name of Yunshang the next day.

Under the cover of night, Yinuo jumped onto the wall of the Bafang Pavilion in black and headed in the direction of the Xia Mansion.

At this moment, the lights in the Xia Mansion were bright, and Yi Nuo followed the central axis of the Xia Mansion into a courtyard that looked quite good.

"You are all sharp," said a woman in Tsing Yi commanding three or two maids.

"Mama, what is this old lady busy with? It's been a feast for both days," a maid asked in a whisper.

"The old lady is choosing a wife for the master." The woman in Tsing Yi said with a smile.

"Choosing a wife? Didn't I be ...... by Miss before," the maid said in surprise.

"So this is hidden from Miss, didn't you see that Miss was allowed to eat in her courtyard for the past two days? If the young lady knows, she doesn't know how to make trouble. The woman in Tsing Yi lowered her voice and said, "Okay, hurry up, don't let the old lady wait." ”

"Yes, Mama"

Choosing a wife? The previous news did say that Xia Yuqi's mother, Xia Shilang's wife, died. And listening to this meaning, Xia Yuqi should be very dissatisfied with the matter of choosing a wife, and also, if the newcomer enters the house and gives birth to a son and a half daughter, Xia Yuqi's life may not be easy.

The corners of Ino's mouth lifted, and he looked at the courtyards on the lower horizontal axis. In the middle, that is, the courtyard where he is now is out is the old lady's. A courtyard on the right side is very similar to the layout of the old lady's courtyard, with a large piece of bamboo planted in the courtyard, and more guards guarding outside, thinking that it is Xia Shilang's courtyard. The courtyard on the left side is slightly smaller, and flowers and plants are planted in the courtyard, and it is understood that the three main masters in this summer mansion are the old lady, Xia Shilang, and Xia Yuqi.

After looking at Xia Yuqi, he was in the courtyard on the left.

With a slight force on his feet, Yinuo stepped across the eaves of the house in the night and gently landed on the main house in the courtyard on the left. Carefully lifted a piece of green tile, looked through the gap, and looked over.

I saw that the main room was decorated with light pink light yarn, and the position of Yinuo was just opposite the dressing table.

Xia Yuqi is happily trying on the necklace given by Ning An.

"Miss looks really good in it."

"Well, it's a good chain."

"Miss, can this Princess Ning'an really marry into the Zhenguo Mansion?"

"It's hard to say, one is a foreign princess, and the other is a marriage from the emperor. Difficult"

"Then the young lady still wants to help her?"

"Of course you have to help, even if you can't make it, it's good to respond to Zhen Linxuan. It's best to be unlucky with Xia Yunsheng! If it weren't for Xia Yunsheng, I would have been able to go abroad! She Xia Yunshang is the concubine of the Guogong Mansion, why am I not! ”

"Yes, Miss must be talented, good-looking, I don't know how many times better than Xia Yunsheng, if you want to say it, it is because Xia Yunshang has an eldest princess mother, otherwise, where is there anything about her in this capital!"

"Humph! It's disgusting to look at her foxy appearance. If you want me to say let that Ning An enter the mansion and torture her! ”

"That's it, looking at her arrogance, the emperor still wants her to marry the prince! I want the slave to say that the young lady should marry into the royal family."

"Hey, I can't"

"Why not, look at Miss Chu, Miss's background is worse than hers?"

"I hate it"

"The slave is telling the truth. The slave really hopes that the young lady can marry into the royal family, and she will not be angry with the old lady. ”

The words of the maid and Xia Yuqi intermittently came into Yinuo's ears.

Enoch sneered unconsciously, it was really wishful thinking. But this should be the weakness that the princess wants. Getting the news he wanted, Ino gently closed the tile and disappeared into the night.

"Interesting, it seems that the royal sister really has a good helper by her side."
