Yixuan and Zhao Zhen were greasy and crooked all night, and it took nearly five watches to fall asleep, and the next day they got up as usual, rolling on the bed in a daze, and when they were doing mental construction, they were wrapped around their waists by Zhao Zhen with one hand and circled into their arms.

He closed his eyes and said in a tired voice: "Why don't you sleep a little longer?" โ€

Yi Xuan yawned and said in a weak voice: "Aren't I going to say hello to the concubine?" On the first day of the new year, I was diligent to make her less angry. โ€

Zhao Zhen opened her eyes and turned her head to look at her, the girl was rubbing her eyes, her fingers were thin and white, the corners of her eyes were a little red by her, there was moisture in her eyes, and her eyelashes were wet.

How so? A little aggrieved, a little pitiful, and a little well-behaved.

Zhao Zhen's heart seemed to be scratched by the claws of a kitten, and it was itchy and crispy.

He pressed the little girl's head into his arms and said, "I'll go with you." โ€

"No need. You sleep. The little girl patted him.

Zhao Zhen smiled dumbly, licked his dry lips, and sat up, "It's okay, we'll sleep when we come back." โ€

In the New Year, there is also a new atmosphere in the palace. There are bright red lanterns hanging on the eaves, spring couplets are pasted on the doors and pillars, and red silk can be seen hanging on the treetops everywhere. There are not many people in the house, and many of them have taken leave to go home, and they will not come back until the evening of the third day of the new year.

The huge palace is a little deserted.

In the Herui Hall, the concubine had just gotten up and was being served by the maid to wash. Zhao Zhen and Yi Xuan stood under the porch for a while, and only after the concubine had freshened up did they go in.

The concubine is dressed in rose red today, with peony flowers, and a whole set of gold silk on her head, which is very graceful and luxurious.

Because the concubine is a concubine after all, she can't wear red, and if she wears red, it will be disrespectful to the queen mother.

Yi Xuan was a little surprised, don't look at the concubine's perverse temperament, she behaves in a proper manner.

The concubine sat on the kang, glanced at Yixuan coldly, and snorted contemptuously.

Yixuan lowered her eyes and tightened her fingers crampedly.

The maid came over with two bowls of tea, Zhao Zhen took it first, looked at Yi Xuan, there was encouragement in her eyes, Yi Xuan held the remaining bowl in her hand, and the two knelt down together: "I wish my mother a peaceful and blessed New Year." โ€

With that, both of them handed out the tea.

Concubine Gong took her son's bowl very calmly, took a sip and said with a smile: "Zhen'er, get up quickly, the ground is cold." โ€

Ignore Yixuan.

Yi Xuan had long expected this to be the case, so she couldn't talk about being sad, she just felt embarrassed.

She has always been a relatively amiable person, no matter who she doesn't like in her heart, she has done enough work on the face, but she will not make others cold when she gets along.

The concubine is straightforward, who likes and hates whom, all on her face, you can see it at a glance.

Zhao Zhen knelt on the ground and didn't move, looking at his mother, "Yixuan's tea, don't you drink it?" โ€

The concubine snorted coldly: "Since she doesn't have me as a mother in her eyes, don't pretend to serve tea, it's disgusting." โ€

"Mother, don't talk about this in the New Year." Zhao Zhen grabbed Yixuan's waist, took her forward, and brought the tea to the concubine, "Your Majesty said last night that it was the person he arranged to make you happy." โ€

The concubine glared at her son: "Do you believe it?" โ€

"Why don't you believe it?"

The concubine choked, glared at Yixuan and her son sullenly for a while, and finally took the tea and took a sip.

"I'm too lazy to mess with you on New Year's Day. Get up. I'll go to the temple to burn incense immediately, Zhen'er, you go with me. โ€

Kneeling for too long, her knees hurt a little, Yixuan was supported by Zhao Zhen to stand up, bent down and pressed her legs, but she didn't expect this action to stimulate the concubine again.

"The princess is really squeamish, she is tired from kneeling for a while, and she can't stand up by herself, right? I think I knelt for a few hours and didn't get tired. โ€

Yi Xuan's movements froze, slowly straightened her waist, and bit her lower lip to push Zhao Zhen away.

Zhao Zhen lowered his eyes to look at her, his eyes were dark, he thought about it and took his hand back, turned his head away, and looked at the concubine with an expressionless face.

The concubine glanced at her son, muttered something in her mouth, and didn't speak again.

*

The concubine meant to ask Zhao Zhen to accompany her to the incense, not Yixuan. But Zhao Zhen was very stubborn in fighting against his mother, and insisted on bringing Yixuan with him.

The three of them sat in a carriage, the atmosphere was dead, the concubine's face was particularly bad, and she was in a terrible mood when she saw her son and Wen Yixuan's clasped hands.

Yi Xuan was overwhelmed by this atmosphere, so she kept looking out through the small window.

The dark blue thick canopy, withered trees and crops, the further you go to the outskirts, the more desolate it becomes.

"It's so cold, who do you want to freeze to death when you keep lifting the curtains?"

The concubine choked suddenly.

Yi Xuan was stunned, lowered the curtain with a shrunk of her fingers, and bowed her head in silence.

The concubine was even more angry when she saw that she didn't speak, and sneered: "Mother-in-law talks to you, and you don't pay a word?" The shelves are so big. โ€

Yi Xuan felt ashamed because of what happened yesterday, and didn't want to argue with her, so she took a step back and opened the sky, but the concubine was so aggressive that she almost exhausted her little guilt.

She raised her head, a little impatient, "I just wanted to see the scenery, I didn't expect the concubine to be cold, I'm sorry." โ€

The concubine was stunned, her face was a little weird, and she didn't speak.

This time, they went to Changning Temple on the outskirts of Beijing. Since the fame of Wanfang Temple declined, Changning Temple has sprung up, and the incense is flourishing, occupying the limelight.

There are many little monks of Wanfang Temple who have gone to Changning Temple.

Yi Xuan actually thinks that there is no difference between Wanfang Temple and Changning Temple, and if someone wants to harm you, it is useless for you to hide to the ends of the earth. However, the concubine did not choose Wanfang Temple, which still made her feel very gratified.

At least I didn't deliberately get angry with her.

There are many people who come to incense today, and they are all nobles and high-ranking officials, and ordinary people can't come in today.

King Yu's family of three is still very eye-catching among them.

The timid ones watched from the side, and the bold ones had already come over to say hello to Zhao Zhen. Zhao Zhen perfunctory a few, and took the concubine and Yixuan into the Buddha hall to offer incense.

After worshipping the Buddha, the concubine said that she would stay in the temple to eat and fast, and let the two of them go back first.

This made Yi Xuan can't help but have an idea.

Is the concubine going to meet Zhao Jinxiu?

Because the first time she saw the concubine was in the Buddhist temple, Zhao Jinxiu took the concubine for a walk, and happened to be bumped into by her, that is, the "nurse" in Zhao Jinxiu's mouth.

She also suspected that if she hadn't gone to Dali Temple to denounce Zhao Jinxiu, when Zhao Jinxiu planned to hand over the concubine.

In the end, Zhao Zhen went back with his little lady, and the concubine stayed in the temple alone.

In the second year of junior high school, Yixuan was going back to her parents' house, and Zhao Zhen also accompanied her, and the carriage carried a lot of gifts.

Yixuan also specially brought some jade gems to Hongyu, which are all treasures and are difficult to buy. She specially opened the treasury to select.

After all, after the New Year, the biggest thing for the Wen family was Hongyu's marriage.

The marriage has been negotiated, the dowry has been decided, and the door will be passed in June, and Hongyu will have to be sent to Datong in May, and then the grandmother and the Liu family will go together.

Because of the concubine's affairs, the Wen family was resentful of Zhao Zhen, and felt that Zhao Zhen had wronged Yixuan, but Zhao Zhen was willing to come with Yixuan in the second year of junior high school, and lowered his posture to give the Wen family face, so they didn't say anything.

Only Hongyu, when she saw Zhao Zhen, her eyes turned red, and she pulled Yixuan behind her and asked her indignantly: "When did you become so?" Let others bully and beat you and don't fight back, and don't scold back? โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

The atmosphere stiffened.

Several elders of the Wen family looked at each other, their expressions were relatively heavy, but there was a snickering joy in their eyes that could not be concealed.

Why is the granddaughter so ...... Talking!

The second lady pretended to pull Hongyu and pretended: "What are you talking about, go in quickly." โ€

Ruby didn't feel her grandmother's majesty at all.

If Grandmother is really angry, it is not like this, her whole face will sink, and she will look at you with an expressionless face, and the hair of the person who looks at it will stand on end.

It's just about putting on a show right now.

Hongyu glared at Zhao Zhen angrily, pulled her sister away, took two steps and deliberately spoke loudly for Zhao Zhen to hear: "A man can't even protect his wife, is he still a man!" โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

Zhao Zhen fell into deep thought.

When she was far away, Yi Xuan helplessly grabbed Hongyu, angry and funny: "What nonsense did you talk about just now, there is more and more taboo in your mouth, they are all big girls who are about to get married." โ€

Hongyu glanced at her and snorted, "I won't be as useless as you, if my mother-in-law dares to bully me, I will definitely bully me back." โ€

Yixuan couldn't help laughing, and the whole person leaned against the pillar in the corridor and trembled with laughter.

"What are you laughing at!" Ruby stomped her foot.

Yixuan waved her hand and looked at her seriously: "Okay, tell me how you bullied back?" Do you scold your mother-in-law like a shrew, or do you beat your mother-in-law? โ€

โ€œโ€ฆโ€ฆโ€

This question really stumped Ruby.

She frowned and thought about it, but she couldn't think of a reason, and let out an irritable "oops", "In short, my temperament is not as soft as you, and when the time comes, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, there will always be a way." โ€

Yixuan didn't argue with her, she looked in the direction of the front hall worriedly, and said earnestly: "Let's go back." โ€

"No return." Hongyu vetoed it and looked at her seriously: "Come here, I have something to tell you." โ€

Hongyu was dressed in red, with light makeup on her face, not delicate but with a kind of down-to-earth beauty, her expression was cold and resolute. Yi Xuan was in a trance and remembered that Hongyu should be eighteen this year.

The eighteenth year of the female college has changed, and the red jade has become more and more beautiful.

Especially temperament, the arrogant and domineering little girl in the past no longer exists, replaced by a calm and composed girl.

Yixuan couldn't tell if it was good or bad.

Although the previous ruby was a little annoying, it was really simple. Later, I suffered so much, and the edges and corners were gradually smoothed out, and I transformed into the girl in front of me.

Yixuan originally thought that Hongyu was going to tell her about marriage, but Hongyu didn't mention it, and asked her directly: "When will Yingzhi's brother's revenge be avenged?" โ€

Yi Xuan suddenly realized that the weight of this person had not been reduced at all in Hongyu's heart.

"I hope that before I get married, I can take revenge on Yingzhi's brother, so that I can have the face to worship him." When Hongyu said this, her face fell silent.
