Deng Yarong walked forward with Xu Shu, and didn't notice which direction he was going, until he came to a moon gate, and the palace maid who was waiting there to watch the door reminded, "Two distinguished guests, the side concubine is holding a banquet in the Huxin Pavilion today, which is far away from the Huxin Pavilion, but the two distinguished guests are lost?" ”

Deng Yarong only cared about talking to Xu Shu, where did she care about the road under her feet, and after being reminded by the maid, she suddenly saw that she had walked to a remote and secluded patio that she didn't know where, and thanked the maid for reminding, "Thank you for reminding, the palace is very big, and I took the wrong way unconsciously!" ”

The maid pointed obliquely to a stone path not far behind her, "The two of you can pass through the path over there, there has been a bamboo forest, and then you can see the Lake Pavilion, and then there will be a boat by the lake to pick you up and go to the Lake Pavilion!" If it weren't for the slave maid leading the order to guard here, the two distinguished guests should have been sent to the Huxin Pavilion! ”

"Let's just walk over there ourselves!" Deng Yarong thanked him with a smile, and pulled Xu Shu to the gravel path, and couldn't help complaining about Xu Shu as she walked, "Why don't you look at the road, we are in the wrong place!" ”

Xu Shu smiled, "I saw you pulling me one way at a time, thinking you knew the way, and I didn't know the right path, and I didn't know if you went wrong!" ”

Deng Yarong sighed, "You haven't been to Qingwangfu?" Concubine Zheng is your cousin, I see that your sisters-in-law just now all know the way, I think it's not the first time they have come! ”

Xu Shu shook her head, "This is my first time coming to Qingwangfu!" ”

Deng Yarong understood a little, "It seems that you don't have a close relationship with your cousin, last year, looking at her style, I only think she has a good relationship with you!" And last time......" Thinking about being humiliated in the hands of Zheng Wanli twice, Deng Yarong said angrily, "That's it! Don't mention it, if it weren't for my mother's thousands of instructions, I wouldn't have bothered to join in the fun! Speaking of which, this is the first time I have come to Qingwangfu! In addition to Xu Ting, what she hates the most now is this Concubine Zheng, and the family told her not to offend Concubine Zheng, even if she has a big temperament, in the end she is only angry with herself.

Xu Shu thought for a while, and felt that the "mother" in Deng Yarong's mouth should refer to her biological mother, Mrs. Deng, not her mother-in-law, Mrs. Qi.

"I just watched Grandma Qi Si and Grandma Liang go to the outer courtyard, I think I went to see King Qing!" Xu Yan led Xu Ting to see King Qing, this is a good thing, a good thing! Xu Shu chuckled.

Deng Yarong said disdainfully, "The Liang family is the mother of King Qing's mother, and their identity is different from ordinary people, and they are used to doing things that are annoying. No matter what the occasion, Deng Yarong has always called Xu Ting by her name.

It stands to reason that Xu Ting is a female dependent, King Qing is a foreign man, she shouldn't go to King Qing, and she is not like Xu Yan, who is going to get close to King Qing, it doesn't hurt to see him. If Xu Ting wants to climb to King Qing, she should start with the female dependents of King Qing's Mansion, but the only female dependents of King Qing's Mansion is now Xu Shu's seventh cousin, Xu Ting is separated from Xu Shu, and naturally she is separated from people related to Xu Shu, so she would rather endure the humiliation and please Xu Yan to climb to join King Qing, rather than compliment in front of Zheng Wanli, lest she be looked down upon by Xu Shu, but Xu Ting went to King Qing like this, but it damaged her reputation, the Qi family didn't want to see her like this, she even took the initiative to send the handle out, and she was waiting for her to climb King Qing, Is the Qi family helpless to take her?

Deng Yarong continued, "The Xu family emptied the dowry that the family had given her to dowry, and she took a lot of it and sent it to King Qing's mansion, do you know? Deng Yarong suddenly lowered her voice, "There is a double-sided embroidered screen in her dowry, which was bought by the Xu family at a great price, and even my aunt was amazed, but she sent this screen to Qingwang's Mansion!" ”

The "aunt" in Deng Yarong's mouth is naturally her current mother-in-law, Mrs. Qi, it seems that the "mother" that Deng Yarong just called really refers to Mrs. Deng. Mrs. Qi admired Xu Ting's screen, perhaps with the intention of letting Xu Ting take the initiative to give it to her, but since it was bought by the Xu family at a high price, Xu Ting was afraid that she would be a little reluctant.

"What is Grandma Qi Si doing to send a screen to Qingwangfu for no reason?" Xu Shu was surprised, even though Xu Ting was willing to do anything in order to cling to King Qing, although King Qing was violent, he was not a greedy person, and he wouldn't ask others for money for no reason, right? If Xu Ting has something new, it is possible that King Qing hates her.

"I heard that King Qing inadvertently complained that the screen in the study was blocking the light, Xu Ting took the initiative to say that she had a screen of cloud silk, which was light and translucent, and did not block the wind and light, so King Qing accepted it, and she was proud of this for a while!" Deng Yarong suddenly snickered again, "But she felt distressed for a long time afterwards, and she was not as generous as before when she rewarded her subordinates!" ”

"How did you know about this?" Xu Ting naturally couldn't hide the Qi family from sending a screen to King Qing's Mansion, but the reason for this Xu Ting would not take the initiative to say it, otherwise wouldn't she be clearly telling others that she was unscrupulous to please King Qing, wouldn't it make people look down on her?

Deng Yarong pursed her lips, her expression darkened, "It was the fourth cousin who told me, when King Qing complained about the screen in the study, the fourth cousin was also present, and when he came back, he said to Xu Ting, and Xu Ting was going to send the screen to King Qing!" ”

"It turns out that the fourth prince of Qi is also a frequent visitor to King Qing's Mansion!" Xu Shu's eyes flashed slightly, and it was as she expected.

"There are a lot of people coming and going in King Qing's mansion, even my brothers often come, after all, King Qing is the only prince of the emperor, when will you not go to the friendship at this time? If you don't go, someone else will go, and in this way, you will be one step behind others! Speaking of this, Deng Yarong rarely showed a bit of seriousness, even if she was a former boudoir girl, she has now become a married person, and she always understands some sophistication.

"But......" Deng Yarong frowned, "The eldest cousin is dedicated to studying, and he doesn't go anywhere, and the Qi family exaggerates the cousin, saying that the eldest cousin will definitely be able to win the autumn exam this year, and if he wins another jinshi in the spring next year, he will be able to worship the official, so it's ......."

In this way, no one will fight with the fourth cousin, and the fourth cousin will be able to get everything he wants, and she is looking forward to the fourth cousin's good ...... Even if the fourth cousin is good, Xu Ting will follow suit, but for the sake of the fourth cousin, she is willing to endure these unhappiness.
