Dingshan Zhengse said: "If Princess Jinzhu has the intention to deceive you, I don't know how much preparation to be made, you said that there is me now, but I am not by your side, why bother to suffer and be injured first and then fight back?" ”

Chiba smiled so much that her eyebrows were crooked, and she didn't want her husband to see her figure out of the bath, and then she got up and fell into his arms with only a gauze coat, and Dingshan was very uneasy: "Don't joke with you, if they dare to hurt you, I ......"

"It's going to be fine." Chiba pressed against his lips, didn't tell Dingshan to continue, and said confidently, "Now that I am a person who is pampered and cared for, how can I make you hurt at home, and run out but let people bully, wouldn't it be in vain to let you down?" Don't worry, when I come home, they are all the daughters of the wife of the Gaomen Mansion, what can I do, as for that Ji Jinzhu, I don't even bother to be cousins with her, and there is a bag of grass in her face, which is the most useless thing. ”

Having said that, Dingshan still has a lot of unease, he knows that Chiba has a bad heart, and when he first led himself to the banquet, he just wanted to exhale and raise his eyebrows, she was a person with happiness and hatred in her heart, if she blindly blocked it, it would become a way for her to be weak and avoid trouble. But that night was uneasy after all, and the next day Zhuo Xi also saw that he had something on his mind, mentioning that Chiba was going to Pingnan Mansion for a banquet, Princess Jinzhu was very likely to attend, and he didn't know what was going to happen, he didn't want Chiba to be hurt at all.

Zhuo Xi said: "It's better to arrange a few people to protect the princess secretly, and don't show a trace." ”

Dingshan had concerns: "They are all the daughters of the nobles of the imperial court, and they mean that they don't accept male guests, what's the matter, it's easy for them to save Chiba, but if they show up, those women should panic." What's even more annoying that the emperor has something to say, maybe he wants to think, am I going to the court to bring people, before for the four princes to help our people when they were attacked, his smile is already meaningful, I am in front of him, more things are better than less things. ”

If you are a bystander, you will definitely accuse Dingshan of being afraid of the emperor, but Zhuo Xi can understand him, this listening to the government hall is far from being as simple as the emperor sitting alone to listen to the government, the inextricable entanglements, and the helplessness of Dingshan can be understood.

"Looking for Chu Ge? If Chu Ge agreed, dressed as a maid and followed directly, even demons and monsters would not be able to invade the princess's body. Zhuo Xi said, seeing Dingshan shaking his head, he asked, "Is it because the princess is unwilling?" ”

Dingshan smiled bitterly: "I know that she didn't reject Chu Ge, but she didn't dare to disturb Chu Ge, worried that Chu Ge would think too much, how did she become the princess's guard?" Women's thinking about things is much more detailed and complicated than ours. ”

Zhuo Xi also smiled bitterly: "She looks no different from me now, but she always feels that something is wrong, thinking that I have never frowned, only for her, but she doesn't appreciate it." ”

This day passed in a hurry, and the next day was the day to go to Pingnan Mansion for a banquet, and Chiba Duyouyou was at home with Erniang to prepare for his own banquet, and it was not a matter of a few days. When I returned to my room after I was busy, I saw that the clothes and skirts were spread all over the corners, Sister-in-law Li and Cotton were gesturing in front of the mirror, and when she saw her coming back, she hurriedly said: "Princess, come and try on clothes, Ming'er can't lose." ”

Cotton is also wearing a dress that will go to the banquet tomorrow, bright and bright, not the casual of the little girl on weekdays, looking at the temperament that comes out of the palace, Chiba sneered: "You stand in the people, you are a lady, not a maid." ”

She was pushed to choose clothes, and looked at the past, some of the palace clothes bureau made outside, and recently she and Erniang Huili bought a lot of exquisite and expensive dresses from tailor shops and garment stores in the capital. Erniang always said that their money could not be spent in a few lifetimes, and there was nowhere to use money in the mountains in the past, but now she can buy anything in the capital, even if she is a mother-in-law in name, she must give the best to Chiba.

Many skirts here have never been worn, everything is fresh, Qianye has seen them one by one, and said to the cotton: "Jinzhu loves brightness the most, last time I wore the clothes left by my mother to enter the palace, such solemn and noble, she will definitely learn, do you believe it or not?" ”

Cotton looked down at herself and smiled proudly: "Isn't that a collision with a slave?" ”

When Dingshan returned this night, Chiba had already chosen his clothes, and he was going to enter the court early tomorrow morning, and he couldn't send Chiba out, Chiba didn't mention anything about tomorrow, and only told her husband how to arrange the banquet at home one by one.

And that Pingnan Mansion sent someone to greet him early the next day, and he was decent and polite, but he was actually afraid that Chiba would not go. Sure enough, before the sedan chair arrived at the gate of Pingnan Mansion, Chiba was asked to get off the sedan chair and walk in, all because Princess Jinzhu arrived today, and there were dozens of people escorting the car before and after, and the two streets around Pingnan Mansion were closed.

"Princess, the guards said that everyone has to get off the sedan chair and walk, and you are ...... here" The people of Pingnan Mansion were embarrassed, always thinking that they were also princesses, and Chiba could take a sedan chair to the door.

Through the curtain, Chiba smiled faintly: "It's hot now, and I'm the most afraid of heat, so I'll go back." I will bring the congratulatory gift to my wife, and I will visit you another day. ”

The man didn't know how long he went, Chiba only waited calmly, and finally waited for the person to come back, and said outside in a hurry, panting: "Hurry up and get up the sedan chair and send the princess to the door." The sedan chair swayed again, and Chiba slowly unfolded a tight sandalwood fan in his hand, shaking out the light fragrance and bursting with a breeze, trying to calm himself down.

Let's say that this Pingnan Mansion, Chiba has never been here, but most of the official residences in Beijing are similar, and there is nothing surprising, the birthday banquet is placed in the garden, and the ladies of each family have already arrived, they are all sitting together in groups of three or five, but Jinzhu is high, showing her unique dignity. And there was such a banquet in the former palace, and the princess Chiba was never taken seriously, and was often stuffed into any corner casually, if no one played with it, after a banquet, no one remembered her at all.

The women came to salute, and Mrs. Pingnan said courteously, "Princess, please take a seat." ”

I don't want to be today, there was another chair next to Jinzhu, and when she saw Chiba coming, she pointed at the fan in her hand and said with a smile: "It's lively when our sisters sit together, you're really late, just waiting for you to start the show." ”

On such a hot day, Chiba's chair was placed with a thick layer of mattress, but I don't know how many times this trick has been used, in the past, Chiba would endure it, even if she sat with prickly heat, but today it won't be. She glanced at the cotton, and the little girl stepped forward generously, took the thick mattress away, and smiled at Jinzhu without fear.

Chiba sat down, and the people were busy re-putting the fruit refreshments, a bowl of tea was served in front of Chiba, she opened the lid of the tea bowl, and the turbid soup in it was not known to be mixed with something, it must be Jinzhu's mind again.

She put it down gently, called on the cotton and said, "Today's lady's birthday, you give this bowl of tea to Mrs. for me, and congratulate me on the tea offer." ”

Cotton did as she was told, and sent the tea to Mrs. Pingnan, who knew that there was a problem with the tea, but according to the rules, even if the princess asked the maidservant to replace the tea, it was a very decent thing, although no one cared about the princess Chiba, but so many people watched, it was not that she wanted to excuse herself.

I didn't know what I drank, Mrs. Pingnan's face turned pale, and she desperately supported her dignity, and she came forward to thank her. After that, the play started on the stage with gongs and drums, and the women were attracted one after another, and saw Mrs. Pingnan taking advantage of the lack of attention, helping her daughter and the maid to leave in a hurry, looking embarrassed and pitiful, where did she look like a birthday star.

The stage was lively, and Jinzhu's cold and faint voice sounded on this side: "You are amazing now." ”

Chiba ignored it indifferently, shook the small fan lightly, and said, "I didn't expect that after so many years, you still have this trick, I thought there would be something new." ”

Jinzhu sneered: "I married a bandit and became a bandit mother-in-law, I thought that when you came today, you would bring a big man with three heads and six arms to escort me left and right, scaring me like something, where do you dare to bully you?" ”

Chiba said: "I thought that in this world, there was nothing that the third princess would not dare to do. ”

Jinzhu snorted: "Why not, it's just different for you, I'm happy to be nice to you." ”

Chiba turned her face to look at her, they were cousins, each other's father was a brother of the same mother, she didn't understand why Ji Jinzhu hated her, the people of the Han family were just fine, she had nothing before, what did she hate?

Jinzhu saw her turn her face, and showed a fierce look: "If it was before, you didn't dare to say more to me, but now it's really different, what is so great about that bandit, making you change so much?" ” △≧△≧，

Chiba smiled: "If my cousin's colt hadn't died that day, I would probably have understood." ”

With a loud sound, Jinzhu's hand slapped on the table, and the people below looked over one after another, knowing that the two sisters would not live in peace, and they were afraid of Jinzhu's domineering, so they didn't dare to talk more, so they looked away again.

Jinzhu's face was resentful of wanting to kill, but she actually endured it: "Sure enough, it's very frivolous, it's okay, take your time, you are in too much of a hurry to get married, and many interesting things have not had time to be used on you." ”

But after that, there were no more little tricks that were not on the table, there was no dirty tea, no rotten fruit, and even Jinzhu's sour words couldn't be heard, if it wasn't for Jinzhu's silence, or she was waiting for something more hateful, Chiba thought in her heart, she still wanted to go back earlier.

After the two plays, the people from Pingnan Mansion came to exchange for fresh melons and fruits, and Chiba inadvertently turned around, wanting to say something to Cotton, but the person who was still standing next to him suddenly disappeared, and everywhere she could be seen, there was no figure of her. Chiba panicked for a while, but listened to Jinzhu chuckle: "The little girl is playful, I don't know where to go, why don't you find it yourself?" ”

Chiba's face changed, although it was not a new trick, but it was able to hold her hostage, Chiba secretly clenched her fists, and said hatefully: "Where is the cotton?" ”

Jinzhu shook her head: "I don't come to this Pingnan Mansion often, I'm really not familiar with it, and I can't help you." ”
