This young man is the grandson of Mrs. Lu, the eldest son of the Yang family, eighteen years old, named Lu Yingzhi. He is very favored at home.

Yi Xuan stared at him for a while, her habit of looking at people like to look directly into people's eyes, and then she looked away and glanced at Hongyu.

Hongyu looked at Lu Yingzhi in a daze.

Yixuan lamented, this girl didn't run away when she saw Lu Yingzhi.

Lu Yingzhi was very surprised, he had never seen Yixuan before, and he had never seen a woman look directly into his eyes so calmly, without blushing or panicking. Her swarthy pupils, her moon-like skin, her small petal-like pink lips, and the corners of her eyes are like tears slanting from a drizzle.

She was born beautiful.

However, her gaze was calm, her demeanor was elegant, perhaps, it was a young lady from the prince's family.

He's ...... What do you think?

Lu Yingzhi hurriedly lowered his head and settled down.

The old lady saw it in her eyes and smiled: "This is the third daughter of the Wen family, Hongyu's younger sister, named Yixuan. He took Yixuan's hand again and pointed to Lu Yingzhi to introduce: "This is my unsuccessful grandson, named Yingzhi." ”

A daughter-in-law made a joke: "The old lady is also modest, our brother Ying'er just won the lifting last year, and he is such a person, I see, it is better than the blue!" ”

Everyone laughed.

Yi Xuan had no choice but to step forward, blessed Lu Yingzhi, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Brother Yingzhi is good." ”

The girl's voice was thin and soft, with a faint hint of careless laziness and unwillingness. The slender lashes flutter slightly, leaving a pale shade. A faint aroma penetrated the tip of his nose and made him lose his mind.

He heard a sentence or two about what his mother said, and he was about to kiss him?

Lu Yingzhi raised his lips and smiled. He felt that his mother's vision had finally been right.

This girl is quite tempting to him.

After being stunned for a moment, Lu Yingzhi returned the salute, his face flushed slightly, "Hello sister." ”

Hongyu saw these two people coming and going, only to feel that the wolf smoke was everywhere, and her years of hard work were about to be in vain. She gritted her teeth, couldn't help pushing Yixuan, stood in front of Lu Yingzhi by herself, and said coquettishly: "Brother Yingzhi is fine." ”

Hey...... Yixuan's goosebumps are about to rise.

Sure enough, a woman turned her face faster than a book, she had never seen Hongyu so well-behaved and weak. I'm really not used to it.

Yixuan stepped aside and lowered her head, for fear that people would see her laughing.

Lu Yingzhi pulled the corners of his lips in embarrassment, "Sister Hongyu has grown taller again." Yu Guang glanced at Yi Xuan, and saw her head down, revealing a pink neck, and the white jade snow was piled up. I didn't feel that my body stiffened, my chest was hot, and my eyes couldn't leave it for a moment.

Old Mrs. Lu saw her grandson's eyes, she was thinking clearly, and she had to send him away quickly:

"Brother Ying, your father is still waiting for you in the main hall, go quickly. Sister Rong, take your sisters to walk around the garden. ”

A fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl came out from behind Yang, wearing a water-red silk jacket, an ivory white brocade horse-faced skirt with gold trim, a cloak wrapped in red gorilla felt, and a cloud bun, looking very cheerful and lively, and said "yes" with a smile, and then pulled Hongyu, Yixuan, and three or four girls to leave.

The girls sat down in the pavilion, covered with curtains on all sides, and in it there was a brazier, and each of them held a hand stove, so that it was not cold.

Tea and snacks served to the maids. The girls chatted while eating.

"Do you know that the emperor just issued an edict this morning to posthumously crown your aunt as Empress Jiarou."

These words were undoubtedly said to Hongyu and Yixuan.

Lu Rong's face was full of envy, and she turned her head to Hongyu and said, "Now, your Wen family is a veritable relative of the emperor." If there is any benefit in the future, don't forget me. ”

Lu Rong and Hongyu had a handkerchief, and the two had an excellent relationship, holding each other's arms and sitting together. Hongyu smiled at her when she heard this, and swore an oath: "Don't worry, I forgot that no one can forget you." ”

Yixuan had a strange taste in her heart. She slowly took a sip of tea and asked, "Auntie, she was not a concubine when she was alive, but she rashly named her the queen, so it is not etiquette." ”

A girl smiled, "What kind of etiquette is not polite?" Isn't it all the emperor's final say? Who would dare not listen to the emperor's words? ”

Lord Lu is a member of the Ministry of Rites, so he naturally knows the joints, and Lu Rong also inquired about it: "Actually, it's not impossible, it's just that no ancestor has done this." Alas, it doesn't matter. The key is that the emperor is so infatuated, and the position of the middle palace has been empty for four years, just to wait for someone. ”

It is easy to ask for priceless treasures, and it is rare to have a lover.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh and sigh, envying the heartbreaking love between Wen Zhiluo and the emperor, and by the way, praising a few words of the emperor's deep affection.

Yixuan twitched the corners of her mouth, when did she have any love with Zhao Yan?

But it doesn't matter, chasing this kind of thing is nothing more than a false shelf, it's just good, and it's of no practical use.

"Tell me, what is the relationship between the emperor and the queen?" One person lowered his voice and asked, this matter has always been a secret talk of the palace, and no one dares to put it on the table and say, "Didn't the queen calm the envoy before?" She is the emperor's courtier, how can she ......"

Yi Xuan tugged at the corners of her mouth. These people actually talked about her gossip in front of her.

So listen to it? Well, listen to it.

"The emperor obviously doesn't like her. If you like it, how can you let her risk suffering? chased her, just to give the Wen family a face. A woman in a green shirt said, she was mysterious, "You have to believe me, this is what my sister said." ”

Concubine Qi? Yixuan has an impression. The old man of the Qi family is a household servant, and the eldest daughter entered the palace, and I heard that she is a great beauty.

Yixuan was not interested in inquiring about Zhao Yan's concubines, but these ladies were somewhat involved with the previous dynasty, and she knew a rough idea.

Dare to love Concubine Shu chewing the root of her tongue like this behind her back?

Another said: "Not really." The emperor and queen grew up as childhood sweethearts, and their feelings are very good. If she doesn't marry the emperor, it is obviously to help the emperor eliminate the government and the opposition, and when the world is peaceful, she naturally wants to marry. ”

This is seven or eight points accurate. Yixuan remembered the scene when she was a child, when Zhao Yan stood at the door and waited for her to come, and a trace of warmth flowed through her heart.

When he was a teenager, Zhao Yan was not favored, his biological mother died early, and there were many outstanding princes in the palace, and the first emperor rarely remembered him. Zhou is Zhao Yan's nursing mother, and when she saw that Xiao Zhao Yan was lonely, she brought her daughter into the palace.

She was born with a character that is not afraid of heaven and earth, and gradually, Zhao Yan became less withdrawn and began to talk to her. Then, slowly rely on her. So much so that one day she delayed and didn't enter the palace, and the next day she found that Zhao Yan had more than a dozen red spots on her arm, and she was scared that she thought it was bitten by insects, but Zhao Yan told her: "You didn't come, I feel uncomfortable." Pricked with a needle. ”

From that day on, she didn't dare to break the appointment casually. Moreover, she began to analyze the court situation for Zhao Yan, taught him power techniques, checks and balances, and even taught him to compete for favor. Zhao Yan was born smart, learned quickly, from a deserted prince to the hottest prince, and finally ascended the throne as the emperor logically.

During this period, she had countless blood on her hands, but she never regretted it.

It's not so much about love, she feels that Zhao Yan and her are more like sisters and brothers.

She felt very proud of the emperor she had cultivated with her own hands.

This kind of friendship is difficult for ordinary people to understand. That's why there are a lot of rumors.

Everyone talked about King Yu again.

"I didn't expect that a person like King Yu would use the dirty means of poisoning to kill a woman, but I thought he was a big hero who stood up to the sky." Lu Rong flattened her mouth and ate a piece of steamed chestnut cake with osmanthus sugar.

Yi Xuan said she didn't expect it either. Otherwise, it would not have been poisoned.

"I can't say that." Someone retorted, "His Royal Highness King Yu has made great achievements, guarding the northwest, and defending the border for the imperial court, so he is naturally an out-and-out hero." Empress Jiarou was poisoned by King Yu, but it was just a rumor, and none of us knew what was inside. Or don't jump to conclusions. ”

Someone sang the opposite, Lu Rong was unhappy, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and her eyes were contemptuous, "Yes, yes, what your Miss Lin said is right, and we ordinary people will spread falsehoods, okay?" ”

The atmosphere was a little stiff, and everyone was silently drinking tea or sipping melon seeds, looking forward to how Lin Xi would respond.

At that time, Lin Xi took a sip of tea, rolled his eyes, and said coldly: "I didn't say that what I said was right." ”

Obediently, the little girls are so powerful now?

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Hongyu quickly pulled Lu Rong away with one eye, and the remaining few people stared dryly.

Yixuan sat for a while, listening to them talk about the new fat powder, which cook's dishes are delicious, which one's fabrics are good, and which family's son-in-law is handsome, all of which are trivial things. She was bored when she suddenly heard a sentence:

"Do you know that next month, King Yu will return to Beijing?"

Yixuan's body stiffened, and she looked at the source of the voice a little blankly, and a little cold sweat appeared on her fingertips.

Returning to Beijing at this time, what does Zhao Zhen want?

"Huh? What did King Yu come back for? Please? Someone asked on her behalf.

"I heard that the emperor ordered King Yu to personally send the queen's coffin back to Beijing, so that the queen's body could be buried in the imperial mausoleum."

Yi Xuan was even more shocked when she heard this. It turned out to be Zhao Yan's meaning! He's a mess!

"The emperor is really affectionate to the queen."

"Yes. It's really a bitter mandarin duck. ”

……

Yi Xuan asked someone to digest the news, and turned around and walked out of the pavilion. tightened the cloak on her body, but there was still a cold wind pouring into her neck, and she shivered from the cold.

She looked up at the sky, the clouds were faint, and the winter capital was bleak and gloomy. It is completely different from the majesty and grandeur of the Northwest.

The goshawks of the Northwest are coming back.

Will this exquisite and extravagant capital become a cage for the goshawk, or will it be destroyed by the goshawk.

Unknown.

She walked slowly towards the pond.

In the distance, she saw Hongyu and Lu Rong standing by the pond feeding the fish. Yixuan was hesitating to step forward when she heard the conversation between the two.

"If you don't hurry, my brother will really be snatched away by your stupid sister. Look at the look in his eyes, staring at people like he's crazy. ”

“…… No, they just met. ”

"Yes, you're right. But my grandmother's meaning is already obvious, that is, she wants to tell your sister to my brother, you still don't understand? ”

“……”

"Oh, don't be upset. I'm definitely helping you. I know what you think about my brother. Let's go, I'll take you to play with him. ”

The two threw the fish food, held hands and ran away.

Yixuan waited for them to leave before slowly walking towards the edge of the pond. There are several goldfish in the pond and a pond of lotus flowers. But it's winter, and there are no lotus flowers to enjoy. The fish are all grabbing food on the water, and the orange body is looming, flexible and cute.

After watching it for a long time, her mood calmed down.

Now the trickiest is King Yu. King Yu's return to Beijing is not without any benefits, at least it is easier to control than when he was in the northwest. Otherwise, with his ability, it is not impossible to respond to every call, and once raise troops to capture the capital.

Zhao Yan ordered King Yu to return to Beijing, there must be his plans, she should believe him.

Then, help him secretly.

As for talking about marriage, it's not something she will consider now. Even if he thinks about it in the future, this person will not be Lu Yingzhi.

Let's explain it to Ruby. Lest she misunderstand.

"What are you thinking?"

Yi Xuan has always been very focused when thinking about things, and she didn't notice the footsteps behind her, and she didn't react until the other party spoke.

It's annoying. Why did Lu Yingzhi come?

Yixuan turned around and greeted him, smiling politely: "It's nothing, it's just watching the fish." If Yingzhi's brother is fine, I'll go first. ”

"Something." Lu Yingzhi's ghost sent the gods to grab her wrist. He just didn't want her to leave, he just wanted to talk to her alone.

She doesn't have to be shy, it's empty, people come and go at any time, and no one will misunderstand.
