The eldest princess's face changed, and she said in a dumb voice: "What does the imperial concubine mean?" ”

The imperial concubine nodded and smiled: "It's not interesting." —— The main palace is just a little bit of a favor for the saint by the way. In fact, Chang Nei was taken aback when he heard He Ningxin's loud shouting at the door, and hurriedly took a shortcut to ask the nearest imperial concubine to come to help.

Chang Nei himself hurriedly went back to the Tai Hall and replied to the saint.

I'm afraid that the Duchess of Zhenguo will have a bad day today, and the saint will blame herself.

He Ningxin breathed a sigh of relief. She also knew that Chang Nei had been waiting outside the door, so she deliberately spoke very loudly just now, hoping that the saint would have a little look in her eyes, knowing that she was the wife of the saint's important minister, and she would not allow the eldest princess to mess around. It's just that this permanent servant actually invited the imperial concubine, which made He Ningxin feel a little uneasy.

The imperial concubine saw He Ningxin standing upright in the inner room, and the two palace maids and an old palace maid next to her also glanced at He Ningxin with squinted eyes, and their footsteps were quietly moving backwards, as if they were about to retreat.

"Duchess Zhenguo, let's go out with this palace.

, you have been staying too long today, if you violate the palace rules, but even the palace can't protect you. As she spoke, the imperial concubine glanced at the queen meaningfully.

Foreign women enter the palace for a fixed time, not as long as they want. Of course, there are always exceptions. This kind of thing is in the palace, and generally no one sues it, so no one pays attention to it. Just wait for one day when someone makes a big mistake, and then he will be punished for the crime.

The queen suddenly changed color, and got up calmly and said, "Duchess Zhenguo, I am fortunate to meet today." When he is free one day, he will announce your entry into the palace. As he spoke, he nodded to the imperial concubine, got up and went out.

The imperial concubine bowed her head and avoided the side and made her debut for the queen.

Pei Shufen hurriedly saluted the imperial concubine and followed to go out.

The imperial concubine stared at Pei Shufen's back and said with a smile: "Mrs. Ning Yuanhou is already out of time today. Do you want this palace to be accommodating? "Because a few days ago, the saint took everyone from the inner palace to the Mulan hunting ground to hunt, and the imperial concubine stayed in the capital, and now she is still in charge of the access control of the inner palace.

When Pei Shufen heard this, her heart tightened, and she hurriedly turned around and saluted the imperial concubine in a panic, and said, "The courtiers are leaving the palace." ”

The imperial concubine chuckled softly. said: "Mrs. Ning Yuanhou don't panic. Today's matter, this palace will give the queen face and will not remember your overtime. After speaking, he glanced at the eldest princess who was half-lying on the bed, turned around and went out.

He Ningxin bowed her head and saluted the eldest princess, followed behind the imperial concubine, and strode out of Yonghe Palace.

The eldest princess was so angry that her face turned blue in the back, she reached out and grabbed the teacup on the side, and threw it on the ground fiercely, hiding the uneasiness and panic in her heart.

The imperial concubine walked slowly in front, and He Ningxin followed behind her half a step away, looking down and thinking about the imperial concubine's frequent gestures, what was her idea?

The imperial concubine didn't say anything all the way, and was silent all the way to send He Ningxin to the gate of the Holy Hetai Palace, before she whispered: "Plan early." There will be no such good fortune in the future. With that, he immediately turned and left.

He Ningxin looked at the back of the imperial concubine in a daze, and finally made up her mind.

At the door of the Hetai Palace, two little chamberlains watched the Duchess of Zhenguo turn around, one talked to her, and the other turned around and went in to pass the word.

After a while, it was Chang Nei who came out, and said to He Ningxin with a little dejected: "Duchess Zhenguo, I was frightened today. One Saint on the "...... He Ningxin hurriedly intercepted Chang Nei's words, and said with a smile: "Chang Nei's servant has done the courtiers a great favor today, and the courtiers are grateful. He also said, "The Holy Sun has all the opportunities, and the courtiers will not go in and disturb them." As he spoke, he made a big salute outside the door of the Hetai Palace.

Chang Nei waited for He Ningxin to finish his salute before saying, "There is a decree in the Holy Father, and the Huangmen Supervisor will send the Duchess of Zhenguo back to her house." "The Yellow Gate Supervisor is a chamberlain who carries a sedan chair for the saint and the queen.

In addition to the saint and the queen, only the confidant minister who has been extremely favored by the saint has the honor of giving the Yellow Gate Supervisor the honor of carrying a sedan chair. And the foreign woman was given a sedan chair carried by the Yellow Gate Supervisor, and it has never been there.

He Ningxin knew that this was the Saint's compensation for the grievances she suffered today, and she also noticed that someone had been following her along the way. Although he didn't want to murder her in this deep palace, he definitely had the attitude of coming over to see the saint.

He Ningxin didn't say much. knelt down and kowtowed to the saint, then followed Chang Nei out to the Liangyi Gate, and under the prying eyes of people from all sides, he swaggered up to the sedan chair carried by the Yellow Gate Supervisor and went back to the Zhenguo Mansion.

Seeing that the saint was very kind to the Duchess of Zhenguo, the palace maid of the eldest princess was very worried, and hurriedly went back to Yonghe Palace to tell the eldest princess about the matter.

When the eldest princess heard this, she was even more flustered, and hurriedly ordered someone to invite the queen mother over.

The palace maid went for a long time and came back to say that the queen mother was tired for a day, her bones hurt, and she had rested.

The eldest princess had no choice but to grit her teeth and get up, let people carry her to the Hetai Palace, kneel in front of the door of the Hetai Palace, and ask the saint for her guilt.

She knelt for a full hour before the chamberlain came out and said, "The Holy One knows, let the eldest princess go back and rest." I'll talk about it when the injury heals. ”

The eldest princess couldn't support it anymore, so she was carried back to Yonghe Palace. After this toss, the * bone that had just grown was a little out of seams, and the pain made the eldest princess die and live, so she quickly took out the painkiller pill that Pei Shufen gave her, and ate the last one in one go, and then announced that the imperial doctor came over, and tossed until the middle of the night, before falling asleep.

And not long after He Ningxin returned to the Zhenguo Mansion in a sedan chair carried by the Huangmen Supervisor, she went to Xuanrong Hall to ask Mrs. Jian for instructions, saying that she had entered the palace today, and she had to go back to discuss some things with her father.

Old Madam Jian didn't understand these things, and she didn't dare to stop He Ningxin, so she only said "I know" and got up and went back to the inner room to rest.

He Ningxin just came over to go through the motions, after all, her mother-in-law is still there, and she can't say that she will go back to her parents' house, so she will go back to her parents' house.

Even if it's a face-saving relationship, you have to make a disguise. Besides, it was almost evening. There is a curfew in the capital at night, and she will probably not be able to return at night. In this case, it is even more necessary to obtain the consent of Mrs. Jane.

After asking Mrs. Jian, He Ningxin can go back to her parents' house justifiably.

He Ningxin returned to Zhiyuan Pavilion and wrote another piece of music. She was full of righteous indignation, her pen walked like a dragon and snake, and she wrote like a cloud and water in her peers, and soon wrote three major Zhang Shuxuan.

Wait for the ink on the movement to dry. He Ningxin rolled up the chapter and took it with him, and together with Fufeng and Fuliu, he sat in the imperial carriage of the Zhenguo Mansion, and went back to He's house while it was still dark.

Back at He's house, when Mrs. Xu saw He Ningxin at first glance, she seemed to be happy from heaven, and pulled her over to Mosuo non-stop.

He Ningxin and the people of the He family also had sincerity, and they were also very moved to see Mrs. Xu's natural motherly feelings. chattered with Mrs. Xu about goodbye.

This time, it was the first time He Ningxin had returned to her parents' home since she returned to Ning on the third day of her wedding.

Mrs. Xu eagerly asked about the family affairs of the Zhenguo Mansion, and said worriedly: "Your mother-in-law, didn't you block you?" ”

He Ningxin shook her head with a smile, holding the corner of Mrs. Xu's clothes with one hand and circling around, and said, "My mother-in-law is worried about her stroke every day, how can she bother to find my ballast?" ”

Mrs. Xu hugged He Ningxin in her arms and said with emotion: "There is a saying, you should remember that you would rather offend a gentleman than a villain." It is said that if you act too straight, you will lose your roundness, and you will not last long. ”

Rigid cannot be long, soft cannot be kept. In He Ningxin's previous life, he was just and extremely easy to break.

He Ningxin listened, but said faintly for a while: "I know that there are so few gentlemen in the world, and I still have to deceive gentlemen." I'd rather let go of the villain than embarrass the gentleman. If this continues, who wants to be a gentleman?

The daughter would rather offend the villain than the gentleman. ”

Mrs. Xu deliberately made an angry appearance and said, "Yo, it's out." I didn't even listen to my mother's words. ”

He Ningxin smiled and coaxed Mrs. Xu for a long time, and Mrs. Xu turned her anger into joy and pulled her to go to the cultivation and reading hall in the back garden to see Mrs. He.

Mrs. He was also very happy to see that her most painful granddaughter had returned to her parents' house, and personally went to her glass greenhouse to pick the freshest cucumbers and loofahs, and asked the people in the kitchen to make He Ningxin's favorite cucumber and loofah yellow huā egg soup.

When it was time to eat, He Ningxin saw that the table was full of her favorite side dishes, and felt that the depression of the past few days had been swept away. No matter how outsiders bully and insult her, she still has a family that loves her and can be her strong backing.

At this dinner, the people of the He family gathered together and ate very happily.

Only Master He knew that He Ningxin suddenly returned to her parents' house, there must have been a big event, and he remembered the rumors he had heard in the Metropolitan Procuratorate recently, and he had a bit of a spectrum in his heart. He patiently accompanied the family to finish dinner, and told a few jokes in the courtyard, which made the atmosphere at the dinner table lively.

After dinner, He Ningxin and Mrs. Xu sent Mrs. He back to the cultivation and reading hall.

Mrs. He took He Ningxin's hand and said earnestly: "Xin'er, grandma knows that when you come back, there must be something important that can't be solved."

Don't worry, everything in the world can't escape a "reason, word." If you suffer a loss here, you will make up for it there. Don't hold it in your heart, it's not good if you can't think about it. If you have something to say to your father and mother, talk about it well. It's my wife, although she doesn't have any ability, but she can listen to you and talk about her heart, and she can do those troublesome things. ”

He Ningxin was very moved. She thought she was hiding it very well, but who knew that even Mrs. He could see that she had something in her heart.

He Ningxin no longer concealed herself at this time, and nodded solemnly to Mrs. He: "Xin'er knows." Grandma rest assured, with her father and mother, and grandma helping Xin'er, Xin'er will be fine. ”

Mrs. He patted her hands with emotion and asked her and Mrs. Xu to go back quickly.

Back in Mrs. Xu's main courtyard, Master He had really been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Mrs. Xu and He Ningxin coming back from the Cultivation and Reading Hall, Master He got up and asked, "Go to the study, or the inner room?" ”

He Ningxin looked at Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xu thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the inner room." The study is in the outer courtyard, and it is late and not very convenient. ”

Master He couldn't help but complain to He Ningxin, and said, "I always said that I would give me the entire study in the inner courtyard, but your mother just didn't agree." ”

Although He Ningxin had something in her heart, she was also amused by Master He.

The three of them came to the inner room with a smile, and the maids and ladies knew that the master had something to talk about, so they all avoided it from afar.

Mrs. Xu then asked He Ningxin, "What's wrong?" Look at your sad face? ”

He Ningxin looked at Master He and said, "I'm going to trouble Daddy again." Saying that, I first told me what happened in the palace today, and then added the words that the imperial concubine entrusted to the people of the Huiguo Mansion brought to her, and finally concluded: "Originally, I was still waiting to see the attitude of the eldest princess, but today Ouchi and his party, there is no need to wait and see, they have already sat down."

It's just that the daughter doesn't understand, why did the eldest princess fall in love with Feiyang? ”

Although Jian Feiyang is in a high position, he has a wife in the end. And there are still some noble sons and daughters with the same status as Jian Feiyang, and there are still some in the Great Qi Dynasty, and they are all unmarried, and they are all lined up to want to be the master.

When Master He heard what happened to his daughter in the palace today, he was already angry, and said angrily: "The eldest princess is so perverse, she thinks she is even more powerful than Empress Dowager Pang?!" Saying that, Master He had already rolled up his sleeves and said to Mrs. Xu in a deep voice: "Come on, lay the paper!" ”

"What are you going to do?" Mrs. Xu couldn't see Master He's temperament of listening to the wind and rain, "You have to listen to your daughter's words, right?" Master He blew his beard and glared at him, and said angrily: "What else do you have to say?"

It's already over.

Let me tell you, in the past few days, I have heard a lot of rumors in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Let me block them one by one. Who knows if these people don't give up?! Wait for me to give the Holy Table, impeach the eldest princess for taking away her husband, and try to harm my daughter! ”

He Ningxin listened to Master He's words, but smiled, and said, "If Daddy goes up this way, then the eldest princess just doesn't want to marry, and she has to marry Feiyang."

Does Daddy help his daughter, or does he help the eldest princess? ”

Master He also came to his senses, isn't this taking the initiative to give someone a handle?

If they were to pierce this layer of window paper, wouldn't they be in the hands of the eldest princess? And for the sake of the face of the heavenly family, maybe the eldest princess will really succeed.

"So what to do? You can't sit still, can you? Master He threw away his pen, a little disheartened. He has been an official for so many years, and he has seen enough of those things that bully people and take them by force. He has a straight personality and has done his best to help many people. But now that it's his turn, there are some unspeakable moods.

He Ningxin saw it in her eyes, pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Father, mother, don't be discouraged first."

How about a look at my piece? As she spoke, she took out the piece she had written earlier in the Zhenguo Mansion.

Master He unfolded it and took a look, and it turned out to be a horse guide about Princess Shang. To put it simply, you need to do the following in order to become a colt.

First of all, in the future, the princess's concubine will be changed to a false title, and she is not allowed to hold any other position in the court. The reason is that the horse, like the concubine, has the greatest responsibility to take care of the princess's daily life, and it is the importance of the horse's position to live a good life with the princess.

Secondly, vicuñas are not allowed to take concubines, and there can only be one princess in their life. If the princess dies before the princess, the princess must observe the festival for the princess, even become a monk, and cannot marry again for the rest of her life.

Finally, it is proposed that this criterion be written into the laws of the Great Qi. In the future, when the princess chooses a son-in-law, all the horses of the lord must do the above two. If you can't do it, it's a crime, and you can lock it up by the Zongren Mansion.

Master He was dumbfounded, and said repeatedly: "Nonsense! What nonsense! ”

He Ningxin said with a smile: "I'm asking for a sky-high price, so I'm waiting for them to sit on the ground and pay back." Besides, we took the initiative to exalt the status of the princess, where would anyone dare to oppose it?

Tomorrow morning, my father will present this recital, and then pull the people from the Zongren Mansion to beat the side drum.

The eldest princess will wait to choose a good son-in-law when the time comes! ”

This recital is actually calculated for the Sacred Heart, not for the welfare of the princess.
