Chapter 37: The Dispute Between the Concubines
"Grandmother, Han'er doesn't know anything about this, it must be the people in the public who are using falsehoods to deceive me!" An Xuehan said with an aggrieved face, looking pitiful with tears in her eyes.
"Yes, yes, yes! This public manager is becoming more and more disagreeable, and even the master dares to deceive, old lady, don't worry, I will investigate this matter strictly and will not tolerate it! The Liu family didn't dare to splash dirty water on Fu Rongrong's head, so he could only put all the responsibility on the public school.
"Even then, it's your lack of management." Old Madam Xing's face was gloomy, and she taught a couple of sentences angrily, and her good birthday was messed up like this, and she was also teased by the ladies and ladies of the other mansions.
Mrs. Xing has always looked at the façade of Chong'an Mansion, and her tone is naturally heavier.
Liu's face was unbearable, his body trembled with anger, and he ran to the corner by himself to cry.
When it was almost noon, the banquet in the hall had been arranged, and the Liu family, accompanied by An Xuehan, sat in the gazebo and touched the tears for a long time.
"No matter how bad I do, the old lady can't teach me in front of so many people, where does this make my face go?"
The subordinates searched for a long time, and only then did they find Liu in the pavilion in the back garden, and hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Mrs. Liu, the banquet has been set up, and you and the second lady are invited to the table." ”
"Got it, you go down first." Liu was crying speechless, it was An Xuehan on the side who gave him the words back.
"Oh yes, the old lady asked the little one to bring a message to Mrs. Liu, saying that there are too many people in the lobby to explain." The man lowered his head and said.
"What?" Liu Shi dried his tears and asked with a crying voice.
"Old Madam Xing said that you are in charge of the affairs of the house alone, Xu is more than enough but not enough, and in the future, the affairs of the Northeast Courtyard will be handed over to Mrs. Qin to take charge of it." The man said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
As soon as the Liu family heard the division of power, they immediately couldn't care about crying, Huo Di stood up and shouted angrily: "What? What is this called? Then the Qin family is a very sick man, how can he manage so many miscellaneous things in the house? ”
The subordinate buried her head and didn't speak, she was just the one in charge of speaking, and she didn't care about the rest.
"Mother, sit down first and dissipate your anger!" Although An Xuehan was also very dissatisfied with Mrs. Xing's decision, she was still calm in the end.
The next person was retreated by An Xuehan, and the Liu family sat in the pavilion and was stunned for a while, and then cried again: "How can this be, since Xun Zhi came to the mansion, the old lady Xing has looked at me more and more unpleasantly, and actually promoted the useless Qin family and divided my power." ”
An Xuehan patted Liu's back and comforted: "Mother, don't worry, Mrs. Xing will share your power, it is completely reasonable." ”
"What do you mean by that?" Liu Shi was stunned for a moment, only caring about sadness in his heart, and he couldn't think so much about it at this time.
"Mother, you think, Mrs. Qin is the wife of the uncle, and the uncle is the son of Mrs. Xing's serious son, although the uncle is not in Beijing now, but Mrs. Xing will inevitably reserve a place for the uncle in Anfu, so ah, as long as the Qin family and Anxin Yue are in one day, they will have to press us."
An Xuehan had long seen that An Anyue was unpleasant, but Xun Zhi had distracted her before, and she didn't have time to move Anyue for the time being.
Next year, she will be the triennial draft girl in the palace, she and Anxinyue are both concubines, and according to the rules of the palace, there is generally a concubine in a house, and she and Anxinyue can only have one entry into the palace, so they are destined to become the enemy of the other party.
"Han'er, what do you mean...... Set out to deal with Anxinyue's mother and daughter? Liu gradually calmed down, and began to calculate in his mind.
"Mother, we can't wait any longer, the mother and daughter of the Qin family now have the potential to be powerful, and with the help of the old lady, we will not have the life of our mother and daughter." An Xuehan's noble and beautiful face hides the thoughts of a snake and scorpion, so she will only be revealed in front of the Liu family.
……
When Liu and An Xuehan went to the banquet, the banquet was already halfway through, and the ladies and ladies of An Mansion were all sitting with Mrs. Xing.
Liu's mother and daughter were so late, obviously they wanted to show Mrs. Xing's face.
Old Madam Xing didn't care much either, as if she hadn't seen the two of them, she still smiled and pulled the Qin family mother and daughter and Xun Xuan to talk.
Liu snorted coldly, and after sitting down, he always had a dead face.
Old Madam Xing had almost finished eating, so she got up and prepared to leave.
"The old lady is your birthday today, don't eat more than two bites? Why are you in such a hurry? Qin said slowly.
"If you don't eat it, I'm afraid I'm going to have indigestion if I keep eating!" Old Madam Xing glanced meaningfully at the Liu clan who was sitting on the side, then shook her head, sighed and turned to leave.
"Then old lady, I'll accompany you back to the house." The Qin clan also hurriedly stood up and followed Old Madam Xing to Chunxiang Pavilion.
"Look at her diligence, I haven't seen her wandering around in front of the old lady before, and she will start to be filial when she gains power, and she will really pretend." Liu rolled his eyes, his eyes full of jealousy.
Although the Qin family has gone away, An Anyue is still sitting at the banquet, and Liu is talking about Anxinyue's mother, which obviously wants Anxin Yue to be embarrassed.
An Xinyue's face sank a little, and she turned her head and whispered to Xun Xuan: "I'm a little unwell, so I'll go back and rest first." ”
"Then the eldest cousin will go back first, and I'll see you later." Xun Xuan reached out and held An Xinyue's hand, which was considered comforting.
An Anyue smiled knowingly, then got up and left.
……
After the luncheon, Xun Xuan went to Fanglan Courtyard to accompany An Xinyue and said a few words, and then planned to go back to Hanyunju to rest for a while, who would have thought that halfway he met An Xuehan and Zhu Zixuan who were pulling and pulling in the corner.
Qu Youqi's eyes behind Xun Xuan widened, and he rolled up his sleeves and was about to go up to question, but was pulled back by Xun Xuan.
"Miss!" Qu You gritted his teeth.
Xun Xuan didn't speak, but shook her head at Qu You without any expression, what if she went up and debunked it now? It will only add to the embarrassment.
"Xue Han...... I really like you, I have confessed to my father about the last time, and I am trying my best to persuade my father to agree to our marriage, you can rest assured...... I'll definitely let you marry me! Zhu Zixuan's tone was humble like a believer, and An Xuehan was the god in his mind.
"Don't be crazy, I will never marry you, there is nothing to say between me and you, you and Xun Zhi teamed up to deceive me, are you embarrassed to let me marry you?" An Xuehan is still arrogantly in control, just because she is the one who is loved.
Zhu Zixuan pulled An Xuehan's arm tightly: "How many times do you want me to say it, that time it was plotted by someone, I have never had the slightest involvement with Xun Zhi, why don't you want to believe me?" ”
At this moment, Zhu Zixuan still has the majesty of the son of the master in the past.
In fact, where An Xuehan didn't want to believe him, it was simply that An Xuehan deliberately didn't believe him and wanted to use this as an excuse to get rid of him.
"Want me to believe you? Yes, unless you go and kill Xun Zhi, I will believe you! An Xuehan said without hesitation.
Qu Youqi, who heard this, smashed his fist against the wall vigorously, and his eyes were almost bursting with fire.
Zhu Zixuan was slightly stunned, with a touch of incredulity on her face: "Even so, she will not die of a crime!" ”
"What? Reluctant? Won't you kill your beloved fiancée for me? An Xuehan snorted coldly, shook off the man, turned around and walked proudly, far away.
Zhu Zixuan stood in place and reluctantly called An Xuehan's name, but the other party didn't look back, and walked farther and farther.
The man kicked the wall in a rage, Xu is kick too hard, Zhu Zixuan simply sat on the stool under the porch, and sighed for a long time.
Xun Xuan stood behind the moon gate opposite the wall, and wanted to wait for Zhu Zixuan to leave in order to avoid embarrassment, but the other party did not leave, so Xun Xuan lost patience and walked into the courtyard slowly.
"Stop! Who are you? How long has it been around here? As soon as Zhu Zixuan saw Xun Xuan approaching, he immediately became cautious, he was afraid that the conversation between himself and An Xuehan would be heard by someone with a heart, which would be unfavorable to An Xuehan.
Qu You behind Xun Xuan finally couldn't stand it anymore, and glared at Zhu Zixuan and sneered: "I'm embarrassed to do shameless things, and I'm afraid of being heard?" ”
Qu You has always been a coward, and he usually doesn't even dare to be angry in front of Mrs. Liu, but he dares to be so rude to the son of the master at this time, and he is really angry.
"Where did you come from, little girl, dare to talk to me like this?" Zhu Zixuan shouted angrily.
Qu You was so frightened that he immediately shrank behind Xun Xuan, and his mouth was still vibrant: "What are you yelling at me for?" It's a shame that you're still Miss's fiancé, and you don't even know your future bride! You're embarrassed to roar! ”
"Are you Xun Zhi?" Zhu Zixuan squinted, his eyes looked Xun Xuan up and down, his appearance was good, if he hadn't met An Xuehan first, maybe he would have been willing to marry this woman back at once, but now it is impossible, how can this woman be compared with An Xuehan?
Xun Xuan saw that Zhu Zixuan was talking to her, so she reluctantly turned to the side, her eyes full of sarcasm: "Zhu Gongzi called me?" ”
"Nonsense!" Zhu Zixuan's clean and handsome face had a touch of coolness, "Since I have seen you, I will make it clear to you today, I wish Zixuan will never marry you in this life." ”
"Do you dare to disobey the edict of the Empress Dowager? Courage is commendable, is it just for my second cousin? The corners of Xun Xuan's mouth hooked up a touch of ridicule, only to hear her chuckle, "I think it's better to forget it, people don't appreciate your affection at all, why are you bothering?" ”
"Huh...... You don't sow discord here, even if Xue Han has no intention of me, I won't have affection for you! Zhu Zixuan said ruthlessly.
