Rong took Xun Qingran and others to the Prayer Hall, and the second grandmother of Qi naturally followed, although the second lady of Qi was beaten, but because the beating was not heavy, Rong couldn't speak, so she had to endure shame and follow. On the contrary, it was the second master of Qi, because Ning Xin obviously came to visit the female relatives in the Qi Mansion, so it was not easy to disturb, so he retired to the Rong family, and told the second lady Qi to take good care of the Rong family, "Don't make the old lady angry again." ”

When everyone came to the prayer hall, Ning Xin already knew the news and came out of the upper room to greet them.

In the eyes of people, this phenomenon has to be said to be rather strange. However, Ning Xin seemed unaware.

Everyone entered the upper room of the prayer hall and saluted each other, and then the guests and hosts were seated.

Rong Shi opened his mouth to greet him, and Ning Xin responded casually.

After about half a cup of tea, an expression of concern flashed on Rong's face.

It stands to reason that Ning Xin came to join Second Mrs. Qi, and did not visit the Rong family, and asked the Rong family to come to see her, which is rude. And Second Mrs. Qi was beaten, and the news had been spread to the Prayer Hall and to Ning Xin's ears. If Ning Xin is interested, she should understand Rong's attitude, and ask for her resignation earlier, so that everyone can maintain decency.

But Ning Xin didn't do this, but looked like she had nothing to do. This made her already not very good image in Rong's heart even worse. The daughter of the family, the royal golden branch and jade leaf, is more domineering and arrogant, which is also the norm, but in terms of basic cultivation etiquette, she will generally do a good job. Ning Xin's somewhat scoundrel style made the Rong family look down on him.

Rong's gaze swept lightly over Ning Xin's face, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. She thought of Prince Yonghe's old concubine, as well as Ning Xin's mother, the shrewd Princess Yonghe, and then looked at Ning Xin's current appearance, which made people have to sigh. Ning Xin has developed the appearance she is today, is it really because she lost the teachings of her elders since she was a child? I don't know how Ying Ze is now, but judging from Ning Xin alone, this Prince Yonghe Mansion has restored the title, and it's not over.

“…… When I was in Pingxi Town, the county lord got along well with our dyed girls, so as soon as I entered Beijing, I deigned to come to our mansion and let my mansion shine. Rong laughed.

At the mention of Pingxi Town, Ning Xin couldn't help but raise her eyes and glance at Xun Qingran.

Xun Qing returned a faint smile and immediately realized Rong's intentions.

"The county lord is now rich and does not forget the friends of the poor and the poor, and he is kind-hearted, and he is worthy of being a royal Miao. This noble bearing, pure heart, and clear grievances are what the ladies in the capital should learn. Xun Qingran said with a smile, "The county lord is versatile, when I was in Pingxi Town, the fourth master and I gave a guqin to the county lord, the county lord liked it very much, and I guess I still have it with me now." ”

"The county lord is so nostalgic for the old people, naturally he will not throw away the guqin at will. I heard the woman speak a few days ago, and what did she say, what kind of sword or something......" Rong said halfway, seemed to forget, and looked at Ning Xin with a smile, "This story, the county lord must know." ”

"The old lady's story, I think those women made it up first." Ning Xin said without being salty or light, and turned to Xun Qingran again, "The fourth grandmother has a good memory. The benefits of the fourth grandmother to me, I have never forgotten for a while. ”

Xun Qingran was a little annoyed in her heart, what Ning Xin said was as if she was carrying a favor to repay her. If she can really be as cheeky as Ning Xin, and she is not afraid of making the scene ugly, she can spill it, so she can take care of Ning Xin in Pingxi Town, and take out some things about revenge to her face, and even throw the account book at that time on Ning Xin's face, so that everyone can see the true face of this "proud and noble" county lord.

"What the old lady said is that the old sword is deep." Xun Qingran finally held back his anger, and took Rong's words with a smile, "It seems to be talking about an imperial grandson in ancient times, who lived in the folk since he was a child, and the folk women are both husband and wife. Later, this imperial grandson ascended the throne, and the ministers of the court wanted to re-establish the queen for her and marry a girl from the important minister's family. But the prince was a virtuous man, and refused to abandon his wretched wife, and ordered people to find a sword that he had used when he was poor. The ministers of the court understood what the emperor meant, so they no longer let the emperor re-establish the queen, but welcomed the emperor's civil wife into the palace and made her empress. ”

Xun Qingran said this with a smile, and went to see Ning Xin. Xindao, you tell us the story of peace, and you want to instigate others to destroy the original partner and marry you into the door, let's tell you about the deep love of the sword, you are already a woman who has become a biological child, don't think about it. Reasonable.

"That's the story, the man still values love and righteousness, this woman, there is a three-way and four-virtue, this husband and wife are human, and they must not be betrayed, otherwise she is not the only one who is being pointed out by Qianfu, and her parents, brothers, and ancestors are all disgraced." Rong nodded.

Then he turned around and took Xun Qingran's hand and praised: "It's not that I praise the girl, there are so many daughters-in-law in my house." The granddaughter-in-law, there is no one who can compare to her, knowledgeable, filial and virtuous. Whatever you take, I won't change it. ”

"After the dyed girl came back from Pingxi Town, she talked to me about the county lord. I also thought about the county lord in my heart, and I asked the dyed girl about everything. Rong looked at Ning Xin with a smile again.

Rong and Xun Qingran sang and harmonized, and the words were already very thorough, and their attitudes were also very distinct. But Ning Xin's face did not change at all.

Xun Qingran saw it in his eyes, and his mind turned around, it seemed that Ning Xin had made all the preparations, and she was not afraid at all in this way, and the past was revealed, and she was still very guilty.

"The county lord is new, and he should have been entertained. It's just that our house is simple, and it's inconvenient to dye a girl with a pregnant body. Rong Shi smiled lightly and said, "How is it good to have wronged the county lord." ”

Rong's words can be humbly to entertain the guest, or to euphemistically invite the guest to leave, depending on the tone and attitude of the speaker. And Rong's tone and attitude at this time were clearly a send-off.

Ning Xin is thick-skinned, but she can't be silent at this time.

When the lord came out of the palace, he said that he was going to visit the palace. The queen mother specially advised, saying that the old lady has been unwell recently, and asked the county lord not to disturb the old lady's recuperation. The county lord really misses the old days, and he and the second lady are familiar at first sight, so he only disturbs the second lady. didn't have to be too extravagant, but let the county lord not go, and the queen mother knew about it, and the queen mother also blamed the county lord for being too willful. Mama Gu, who was waiting next to Ning Xin, answered for Ning Xin at this time.

"That's it." Ning Xin nodded.

This Gu Mama is indeed old and spicy, and the meaning of these words is that Ning Xin came to live in Qi Mansion with the approval of the Queen Mother, and if Qi Mansion expels guests, it will not give the Queen Mother. It seems that they must stay in the Qi Mansion, and the Rong family is always not good at directly saying that they will send off guests.

Ning Xin seems to have sworn not to give up if she has not achieved her goal this time, and she has no scruples about anything else. Xun Qingran glanced at Ning Xin, she really didn't know what she was thinking in her heart.

At this time, a little girl suddenly ran in outside, saying that there was a holy decree.

Rong Shi and Xun Qingran couldn't help but be taken aback, what kind of holy decree would there be at this time. However, Ning Xin's face immediately increased its brilliance, and even Second Lady Qi's head was slightly raised.

No matter what they thought in their hearts, everyone quickly sorted out their outfits and went to the front hall to receive orders.

A eunuch holds the decree in his hand and reads it. The content of the decree was very simple, praising Ning Xin's meritorious work in sending the picture, restoring Ning Xin's title of county lord, and rewarding him with gold and silver jewelry, silk rulers, and a number of antique gadgets, all of which were placed in the hall of Qi Mansion.

A holy decree that had nothing to do with Qi Mansion was sent to Qi Mansion to be read, and the things rewarded by the emperor were directly sent to Qi Mansion.

After the eunuch who delivered the decree read the decree, he first congratulated Ning Xin, turned his head, and said hello to the Rong family.

"Naturally, we are happy for the county lord." Rong said, and asked the eunuch again, "The county lord has made a great contribution, and the emperor has awarded so many rewards, this county lord's mansion must also be arranged?" ”

The eunuch smiled and glanced at Mama Gu inadvertently, "This slave doesn't know yet, Long Live Lord and the Queen Mother have their own arrangements." ”

Here they sent out the eunuch who delivered the decree, and everyone sat down in the hall.

Ning Xin's face was happy, and she glanced at Xun Qingran with some pride. Ning Xin's restoration of the title, and even these rewards are expected, how can she be so proud at this time? It was nothing more than the will to reward Ning Xin, and it was actually sent to the Qi Mansion, and the eunuch also congratulated Ning Xin and said hello to the Rong family.

How much does the palace know about Ning Xin's plans, and what kind of position is she standing, and the various joints in it can't help but make Xun Qingran a little worried.

Xun Qingran turned his face to look at Rong's, and saw that Rong's face was also a little heavy.

…………

Although Rong's attitude is clear and she doesn't want to stay with Ning Xin, she can't say it clearly. But Ning Xin didn't care about Rong's attitude, and there was such a thing as the eunuchs in the palace rushing to the Qi Mansion to announce the decree. Ning Xin even made up her mind to live in Qi Mansion.

"Can you arrange a place for the county lord to rest?" Rong asked Second Grandma Qi, "I have the best house there and it is spacious, so I will ask the county lord to live there." ”

Xun Qingran nodded secretly, and after the Rong family understood that there was no way to drive Ning Xin away, they made such an arrangement. Put Ning Xin under your nose, and you are not afraid of what waves she will set off.

Second Grandma Qi was about to say that she had arranged another yard for Ning Xin, but when she heard Rong say this, she didn't say much.

"The old lady's warm pavilion is the most Qi Chu, and it is better to ask the county lord to live in the past." Grandma Qi Er laughed with a smile.

Yung nodded in agreement.

"The county lord only stayed for a few days, and he didn't dare to disturb the old lady's recuperation. But there is no need to prepare another residence, only in the second lady's courtyard, it is excellent. Mama Gu said with a smile.

"Old lady, let your daughter-in-law do this for you." Second Lady Qi also opened her mouth at this time.

Rong smiled, "So be it." ”

…………

Second Lady Qi accompanied Ning Xin to the New Year's Hall, and Xun Qingran and Second Grandma Qi accompanied Rong's back to Yinian Residence.

"Yinggirl, you change my clothes for me." Rong Shi returned to Yi Nian Ju and immediately instructed, "Dye girl, you also go and change clothes." Let's go into the palace to greet the Queen Mother and the noble concubine. ”

Rong's is going to enter the palace!

Xun Qingran naturally agreed, and hurriedly returned to Ning Yuanju, and let the bellflower and others serve, and put on makeup according to the grade.

"What does it mean to send the will to our house?"

Mama Xu and a few girls were busy in their hands, and their mouths were not idle.

"Could it be that Ning Xin's idea, the emperor and the queen mother, actually acquiesced?"

"Not necessarily." Mama Xu is always calmer, "A few days ago, the emperor and the queen mother must have known that the fourth master and grandma took excellent care of their brothers and sisters in Pingxi Town. Acquiescing to Ning Xin's residence in Qi Mansion and sending the holy decree and rewards to Qi Mansion may have the meaning of giving Qi Mansion some more dignity and glory. That Ning Xin and Mama Gu may know in their hearts, but they refuse to tell us, deliberately misleading us. The fox and the fake tiger are like this, but they are a common means used by those people in the palace, and they are very capable of bluffing. Especially people outside the palace. ”

Xun Qingran nodded, and Mama Xu's analysis was very reasonable.

"I hope that's the case, but it's always unsettling."

"She has become her own son, and she still wants to squeeze out her grandmother and marry into Qi Mansion, which is really shameless. Grandma should tell her face to face that she has become married and gave birth to a daughter, and see if she still has the idea of having such a lack of morality. ”

"Don't you want to me?" Xun Qingran smiled bitterly, "In the words of the old lady, it couldn't be more thorough. But she didn't react at all. It's hard to say it clearly, she's not afraid of being ugly, I'm afraid that the scene won't look good. Besides, if she doesn't admit it, crying and shouting that we framed her, and at this time, I don't know what happened to her husband and son, and we can't come up with solid evidence, so we will be passive. ”

"Grandma entered the palace this time, and she told the Queen Mother how about it?"

"The old lady wants to enter the palace to see the queen mother and the concubine, but I'm afraid it's the idea of fighting." Mama Xu said.

Xun Qingran nodded.

"It's not as simple as a word. There is a reason called intimacy, we are the emperor and the queen mother, and Ning Xin is the emperor and the queen mother. Besides, it is such a shameless thing, not to mention the respect of the Ninety-Five, for example, it is an ordinary family, a niece has suffered a lot outside, and now she is back, and she has brought back a lot of houses and fields, and the owner of this family is about to take a good look at and compensate this niece, and suddenly someone ran to the master and said, saying how his niece was outside, what ugly things he had done. Do you think this master will believe it right away? What's more, it also involves his face. ”

"Grandma's concern is that the majesty of the heavenly family is inviolable. If it is not handled well, it will become angry and embarrassed, and it will be even more difficult to clean up. Mama Xu said.

"Then don't you talk about it?"

"Of course not, no matter how you say it, who says it, you have to be cautious." Xun Qingran said, "The old lady's identity is different, if she can talk about the concubine Niangniang, things will be easy to do." ”

"The old lady is really good to grandma." Zi Wan said, "Look, the old lady is more nervous about this matter than grandma, and she has made up her mind that she will not let Ning Xin enter the door." ”

Xun Qingran nodded.

As the crowd talked like this, they thought of something else.

"Grandma, that Yuhuan lied to stop grandma, obviously at the behest of the second grandmother. There is also the second grandmother who went to deliver soup to the old lady at this time. Mama Xu stopped the bowl of soup, and the maid looked at the second grandmother very uncomfortable. I don't know if there was a move in the soup. Grandma thinks about it, the second wife has to deal with grandma, and what she is most afraid of is that the old lady will come forward. Didn't the second grandmother help the second wife to stabilize the old lady, so that the second wife could do something to the grandmother? ”

"It's a pity that grandma treats her with a piece of heart."

Xun Qingran sighed. For Grandma Qi Er, she saw it very clearly that Grandma Qi Er has always been a very smart person, and at the same time a very realistic person.

"After all, they are aunts and nephews, and their interests are often the same." Xun Qingran said, "The second grandmother, when the wind and drizzle are kind, she will talk to you very much. But when it comes to things, in her eyes, interests always come first, and this will not be wrong. ”

The old lady only asked people to take the jade ring out, and she was living in Yinian, and even let Grandma Qi Er take the bowl of soup away as if nothing happened. The old lady didn't understand, does grandma want to talk to the old lady? ”

Xun Qingran shook his head.

"What kind of person is the old lady, why do I need to explain that? She must have understood it in her heart. Look at the old lady, let's know what is the real ginger is old and spicy. ”

"The old lady is getting older and less energetic, and this family must always be managed by a capable person. Now that I'm pregnant, it's not suitable. The big * grandmother has never asked about these chores, and only takes care of the uncle, Brother Zhang, and Sister Zhen. Big lady, we have also seen that she really does not have the talent of a housekeeper. The second wife can't use it now. If the second grandmother is taken again, will the old lady take charge of this family herself? ”

Xun Qingran believes that this is the main reason for Rong's immovable second grandmother. Since you don't move the second grandmother, you still want her to be a housekeeper, so you have to take it. Let Yuhuan start to hit the board of the second lady of Qi, and then simply drive the person out, which is already an effective beating for the second grandmother of Qi. Then, for that bowl of soup, Rong seemed to be careless, but in fact, he was very attentive. Let the bowl of soup be kept in the house, but no one will be allowed to enter the house, and then let Grandma Qi Er take the soup away as if nothing happened. It was to make Grandma Qi Er sure that no one had touched the bowl of soup, let alone verified whether there had been any hands and feet in the soup. also made Qi Er's grandmother feel Rong's trust in her. This is in the heart of Anqi's second grandmother.

Enwei and Shi, Rong's way of dominating people can not be described as unintelligent.

"The old lady's skills are enough for us to learn for a lifetime." Xun Qingran sighed.

Xun Qingran cleaned up and came to live in Yinian. Grandma Qi Er had already instructed the outsiders to prepare the car, and she was also dressed up. Rong's family, Qi Er's grandmother, and Xun Qingran got into the carriage and went all the way to the palace. When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Rong handed the fold inside. Xun Qingran and Second Grandma Qi accompanied the Rong family to sit in a room outside the palace gate, waiting to be summoned.

In Jingxiu Palace, a woman in her twenties, with a rich figure, wearing a phoenix crown and a loose robe embroidered with yellow gold silk embroidered phoenix, put down the tea bowl in her hand.

"The old grandmother is here?"
