On the way back to the house, Bai Lingwei gritted her teeth and sat down, her face was blue and gloomy, and she was so gloomy that she was about to drip water.

Xia Chan carefully sat beside her, thinking about Mama Jin's instructions to her, and then thinking of the cruel words that Bai Lingwei said, although she was scared, she still had the courage to tremble: "Miss...... Mama said before that it would be good for the young lady to take care of the little world with peace of mind, and other things ...... Especially Miss Cousin's affairs, she will handle it well, so that Miss Don't worry...... Don't, don't meddle......"

Hearing this, Bai Lingwei's face was cold, her eyes were as cold as quenched ice, and she gritted her teeth and reprimanded: "That dead slut has started to tryst with the Hou Ye outside, and Mama still asks us to leave it alone-do you really have to wait until this slut is officially married into the Hou Mansion by the Hou Ye and is on an equal footing with me before we deal with her?!" ”

Xia Chan was so frightened by her fierce appearance that her heart jumped, and she didn't dare to persuade her more, so she followed Bai Lingwei's words and whispered: "To tell the truth, this time Mama came back and said that she wanted to avenge Miss, but she didn't make any action at all, but it made that slut more and more presumptuous." Now it is blatant to meet Hou Ye privately outside, but I am afraid that there will be no less seduction of Hou Ye in the Hou Mansion......"

After listening to Xia Chan's words, Bai Lingwei felt more and more resentful in her heart, and felt that Mama Jin was becoming more and more useless, and she had been back home for so long, and she didn't do anything difficult at all.

"Hmph, Mama Jin is getting old and timid, I'm afraid that her brain is getting worse and worse. So, it's all up to me. ”

And when she thought of what she was going to do next, Bai Lingwei's gloomy eyes showed a trace of uncontrollable excitement......

Shui Qingqing took Xiaoxi back to the Hou Mansion from Huiwei Building, and before she entered the door, she happened to meet Aunt Pity beside Princess Wuning at the gate of the mansion.

Aunt Lian was instructed by Princess Wuning to send something to Shui Qingqing, and I heard that Shui Qingqing had not returned to the house yet, so she was unwilling to enter the mansion and wait, so she had been waiting for Shui Qingqing to come back at the gate of the mansion.

She stepped forward respectfully, handed a rosewood box in her hand to Shui Qingqing, and said with a smile: "Girl, this is something that my princess gave to the girl, and I hope the girl likes it." ”

Shui Qingqing took the rosewood box with her own hands, only to feel that the box that didn't look big was heavy to start, but she didn't know what was inside.

She didn't like to open the box in front of Aunt Pian, but she felt that just looking at this carved red sandalwood box with gold and inlaid emeralds was already precious and abnormal, and the contents must be very precious.

Shui Qingqing carefully held the box and said in a panic: "Auntie, there is no merit." The concubine is innocent for no reason, how can she accept the princess's things? ”

Aunt Pian's eyes flashed over the low-key Qingyuan carriage parked at the opposite street without a trace, and finally looked at Shui Qingqing and smiled kindly: "The girl said what she said there." Today in the banquet to meet the girl, the princess is very fond of the girl, after going back has been full of praise for the girl, so let the old slave send some things to the girl, the right to today's girl to accompany the double thanks! ”

In this way, Shui Qingqing couldn't push back anymore, remembering Princess Wuning's heart attack before, she couldn't help but care: "I don't know if the princess has a better heart disease?" ”

Aunt Pian smiled: "I care about the girl, the princess's heart disease is no longer in trouble." ”

Before leaving, Aunt Pity said again: "If the girl is free in the future, can you often go to the Wujing Palace, and talk to the princess to relieve her boredom-the old slave thought that if the girl was accompanied by this little friend, the princess's heart disease would be much better." ”

Although Shui Qingqing hated Bai Lingwei, and even the entire Bai Mansion didn't like it, she couldn't get disgusted with this Princess Wuning, and she always felt that there was a faint sadness in the face of the green veil. Although she has a noble background, she does not have a flower-like appearance, and she has fallen out of favor with her husband, and she is also a poor woman......

She smiled lightly at Aunt Pian, who was looking forward to it: "Thank you, aunt, for the invitation, if you are free, I will visit again and personally thank the princess for her generous gift." ”

After listening to her words, Aunt Lian left satisfied.

On the simple and ordinary Qingyuan carriage at the entrance of the street, Princess Wuning lifted the corner of the curtain and looked at Shui Qingqing stupidly, tears flowed down as if they were inexhaustible, and her cheeks covered with scars were wet......

Aunt Pian climbed into the car, and when she saw her appearance, she said distressedly: "Princess, don't be sad anymore. Heaven blesses and keeps the little princess alive, this matter is a good thing, and the princess should be happy. ”

Princess Wu Ning wiped her tears and cried: "Back then, I saw that she was out of breath, but I didn't expect her to die at all...... But now when I say this to her, she will not believe it, and she will resent me for abandoning her...... I don't know how she survived, and she must have lived a pitiful and hard life for so many years, otherwise, she wouldn't rather be a widow and survive in this mansion......"

Speaking of this, Princess Wuning became sad and sad again, and Aunt Pity was also sad in her heart, shedding tears, and sighed that creation made people.

Aunt Pian said: "According to the Third Highness, she came to the capital from a foreign land more than a year ago, and then she didn't know how to become the daughter of the Sheng family, and married into the Hou Mansion for the eldest prince of Mei...... The Third Highness suspected that there were twists and turns in this, so he asked the princess not to recognize the little county lord for the time being, and to make plans after figuring out the cause of everything. ”

According to Princess Wuning's meaning, she was eager to recognize Shui Qingqing immediately, but thinking about it, Li You's words also have a certain amount of truth.

Because the marriage of the eldest prince of Mei was sung by the golden decree of the holy Yukou, the Hou Mansion of Enzhun selected the girl who was the most suitable for the eighth son of Meizi's first birthday in the capital to get married, if there was anything wrong in this, it was related to the Hou Mansion and the Sheng family, and it was also about Shui Qingqing's life, Princess Wuning did not dare to kill her impulsively.

Princess Wuning, who was anxious to recognize her daughter and worried a lot, finally had to enter the palace to discuss with her closest cousin, Empress Chen.

Princess Wuning's mother and Queen Chen's mother are sisters, one married into the Wujing Mansion to become the Princess of Wujing, and the other married into the Chen Guogong Mansion to become Mrs. Hou, and then the two sisters in the same year, the front and back feet gave birth to Queen Chen and Princess Wuning, Queen Chen married into the East Palace to become the crown princess, and after Emperor Jin Ming ascended the throne, she became the queen in order.

Since childhood, she was called the Shuangshu of the capital and Princess Chen because of her appearance, and Princess Wuning, who was personally named by the first emperor, but she was not as good as her cousin Queen Chen.

Compared with Empress Chen, who married into the royal family, after becoming a country, she was extremely honored. Princess Wuning, who was ruined because of her appearance, could only commit herself to marrying Bai Haoqing, the prince's attendant who was unknown at the time, and began a life of being neglected and miserable......

Hearing that Duke Wuning was going to enter the palace to find Empress Chen, Aunt Pian looked slightly stunned, opened her mouth to speak, and finally closed her mouth and didn't say anything more......

In Chuxiu Palace, Empress Chen leaned on the beauty couch and pretended to sleep to recuperate, while listening to the palace people telling the palace about the New Year's banquet in the Three Princes' Mansion.

After listening, Empress Chen smiled with satisfaction, closed her eyes and said softly: "You'er invited more people this year than in previous years. ”

The palace maid Red Sleeves chuckled: "In this way, it can be seen that the Third Highness is really starting to care about the matter of the prince - as long as His Highness himself has such determination, Niangniang doesn't have to worry about it anymore." ”

Empress Chen sighed softly and said helplessly: "This palace is not instigating him to fight for it, it's just that with his identity and status, even if he doesn't fight or grab, others won't let him live in peace - to win the heir, sometimes it's not whether you want to do it or not, but you have to do it." ”

Red Sleeves nodded, with a look of understanding, "Niangniang is right, our Royal Highness is the prince of the prince, and his talent and strategy are the best among all princes." Therefore, even if he doesn't rob it, others will see him as the one to watch. ”

Empress Chen said helplessly: "But this is exactly the truth. ”

After saying that, she raised her hand slightly and let the eunuch who gave the prayer continue, "At the New Year's banquet, is there anything else special happening?" ”

The eunuch who knelt in front of the couch said: "Back to Niangniang, there are two small things, one is that Princess Wuning also participated in the New Year's banquet in the palace of the Third Highness this year......"

Empress Chen smiled slightly, and said with relief: "My sister is a person who knows the general situation, Bai Haoqing has been promoted this year, and he was also invited to the banquet by You'er, Wu Ning gave You'er and Bai Xiang face, which is a good thing." What else? ”

The eunuch swallowed his saliva carefully, and snorted: "Before the banquet, the young lady who went to the gate of the palace to greet the Hou Mansion in person in front of the Third Palace, is still ...... Took her hand ......"

As soon as these words came out, the warm Chuxiu Palace suddenly fell into silence, and even the temperature dropped a lot.

Empress Chen finally opened her eyes, and looked at the eunuch who was kneeling on the ground trembling with bright and majestic apricot eyes, and frowned slightly, "Miss Cousin of the Hou Mansion?" Which Hou Mansion, which Cousin Lady? ”

The eunuch bowed his head and whispered: "I married into the Dingguo Marquis Mansion a year ago...... Sheng Yu, the daughter of the Sheng family who was happy for Prince Mei. ”

Empress Chen sat up, her brows couldn't help frowning even tighter, and her expression was already a little incredulous: "It's the girl who died of her husband halfway through marriage?!" How could she go to the New Year's Banquet? ”

The eunuch said: "It is said that the Third Highness personally went to the Hou Mansion to send her a post a year ago, and it was ...... I also rode a horse with Miss Cousin for a day......"

Empress Chen's eyes were shocked, "Why did You'er get involved with her?" Why doesn't Hongu know at all! ”

Cold sweat poured down, the eunuch's body trembled so much that he couldn't kneel steadily, and he kowtowed to Queen Chen fiercely and begged for mercy...... His Royal Highness ordered the minions not to tell the mother about it, saying that it was ...... said that he would explain it to Niangniang in person in the future......"

Apricot eyes were unconsciously stained with coldness, Queen Chen got up angrily, and said: "The dignified prince actually traveled openly with a sensitive little widow, and invited her to such an important New Year's banquet - what does he want to do, You'er?" ”

Looking at the angry Empress Chen, the red sleeves on the side cautiously stepped forward and persuaded: "Niangniang, His Royal Highness has always been clean, and he is only afraid that there will be a reason for him to do this......"

"No matter what the reason, he can't be involved with such a woman at this time! Not to mention ruining his reputation, if this matter is passed on to His Majesty's ears by someone with a heart, what will His Majesty think of him?! ”

The more Empress Chen spoke, the more angry she became, and reprimanded: "Let him come to the palace immediately, and the palace will listen to how he wants to explain!" ”

The eunuch was ordered, and he didn't dare to stay for a moment, so he crawled out of the palace and went out of the palace to summon the third prince into the palace......

The eunuch retreated, and Queen Chen lay back on the beauty couch again, but her expression was no longer as comfortable as before, and her eyebrows and eyes were obviously much more solemn, and her heart jumped when she saw the red sleeves.

At this time, the palace maid outside the palace came to report, saying that Princess Wuning had entered the palace and asked to see her outside the Chuxiu Palace.

Hearing this, Empress Chen's expression was slightly stunned, and the next moment she went to the palace gate in person with a happy face to greet Princess Wuning, who had not entered the palace for a long time.

"Sister, what kind of wind blew you here today?"

Princess Wuning followed Empress Chen into the palace, took off the green veil on her face, and showed tears on her face.

When Empress Chen saw it, her face was shocked, she took Princess Wuning's hand, looked at her red eyes from crying, and said worriedly: "What's wrong with my sister?" I just heard about you going to the You'er Mansion for a banquet, and I was happy, why are you so sad to describe it, but what happened? ”

Princess Wuning came to Queen Chen to discuss the recognition of her daughter because she was in a panic, so under the questioning of Queen Chen, she withdrew the palace people in the palace, leaving only the two henchmen of Red Sleeves and Aunt Pian, who told Shui Qingqing about seeing Shui Qingqing in the Three Princes' Mansion today from beginning to end.

After listening, Queen Chen was completely shocked!

Queen Chen knew about the accident of Princess Wuning's child back then, just like Princess Wuning, she never expected that the child who was obviously out of breath would survive in the end.

And as smart as Queen Chen, of course, she also understands why Li You prefers that Miss Hou Fubiao so much.

Although she knew that her son was not greedy for beauty to entangle with a widow, Queen Chen's mood was not relaxed, but even more dignified......

Princess Wu Ning cried as she spoke, and also told Li You's worries to Queen Chen, and said sadly and helplessly: "Sister, what do you say I should do now?" ”

Hearing Li You's suggestion that Princess Wuning not recognize Shui Qingqing for the time being, Empress Chen was relieved and said solemnly: "It is really an eye-opener and a great thing for my sister to be able to reunite with her daughter." However, You'er's concerns are not unreasonable. ”

"She's sensitive and confused right now. If my sister comes to the door without permission, it may be good or bad, and if so, a good thing will become a bad thing. Therefore, I still listen to You'er, let him find out the twists and turns first, and then make plans. ”

Seeing that Empress Chen also agreed with Li You's approach, Princess Wuning's eagerness to recognize her daughter had to be put aside temporarily, and she said sadly: "Nineteen years ago, I abandoned her by mistake because of a mistake. Now she is in front of me, but I can't recognize her immediately, I have no shame to face her, no shame to be her mother......"

Hearing her words, Empress Chen's eyes were cold, and her tone was unconsciously cold, and she took Princess Wuning's hand and said bitterly: "My sister is too simple and kind. Even now, does my sister still think that what happened back then was her mistake? ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Princess Wuning was shocked, but even Aunt Pian, who had been silently guarding behind her, was shocked and looked at Queen Chen in disbelief.

Empress Chen's harem has been sinking for decades, and she has already thought of something in her heart, and she said hatefully: "At that time, the child was sick, not only was there an accompanying imperial doctor to diagnose and treat it, but my sister also invited a local witch doctor for the child. Even if the child dies in the end, and there is a doctor who helps him to see it, how can he finally die and be resurrected? Everything, I'm afraid it's just a conspiracy to frame it! ”

Every time Empress Chen said a word, Princess Wuning's face turned pale, her thin body as thin as paper trembled violently, and her pale lips bit blood.

"Sister is saying...... Did you mean that someone deliberately wanted to kill my Qing'er back then? Who is it, who is so vicious......"

Over the years, because of her daughter's 'early death' and her husband's neglect, Princess Wuning was sad and guilty, and her life was worse than death......

And now that she finally reunited with Shui Qingqing and learned that her daughter was not dead, Princess Wuning was excited and happy at the same time, she learned of her tragic experience, and she felt even more guilty and remorseful, thinking that it was her own mistake that abandoned her daughter who did not die, so that she lived so miserably.

However, if all this is a conspiracy and a frame-up by someone with a heart since her daughter's illness nineteen years ago, then the fate and pain of her and her daughter are all inflicted on them by that person......

Princess Wuning, who was pure-hearted, felt infinite hatred in her heart for the first time, and she couldn't wait to find out the person who did evil back then and kill her with her own hands......

Empress Chen saw the changes in Princess Wuning's expression, and said angrily: "Sister, after so many years, I am afraid that the child will resent you in his heart." Therefore, your only plan for today is not to recklessly recognize your daughter first, so that she does not know the truth of what happened back then, and complains about you with disgust. It's about finding out who did the conspiracy back then. In this way, when you recognize the child, you can explain to her the cause and effect of what happened back then, relieve the resentment in her heart, and truly recognize you. ”

Empress Chen's words undoubtedly lit a bright light for Princess Wuning's bewildered heart, so that she was no longer at a loss and anxious, and knew what she was going to do next.

Although Princess Wuning is pure and kind, she is not stupid, and after thinking about the events of the year in her heart, she instantly thought of the Yang family, who was Bai Haoqing's concubine at the time.

Back then, only she and the Yang family accompanied Bai Haoqing to the Western Desert, so if what happened back then was really man-made, it would only be her!

Thinking of this, Princess Wuning couldn't sit still any longer, and immediately went out of the palace to go back to Baifu to find the truth, and she couldn't wait for a moment.

After Princess Wuning left, Queen Chen stroked her forehead tiredly, and said to Red Sleeves: "Send someone to the Hou Mansion to watch the palace well...... At this point, there must be no more accidents! ”

The third prince, Li You, happened to come in from outside the palace, and when he heard Queen Chen's last words, he said unexpectedly: "Queen Mother, what kind of accident?" ”

Empress Chen looked at her handsome and jade-like son, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and said angrily: "It's not all for you. ”

Li You had already heard the eunuch say that the queen mother was angry, and said with a smile: "Erchen just saw his aunt at the gate of the palace - since my aunt has come, the queen mother's misunderstanding of Erchen should be cleared up." ”

Empress Chen sighed helplessly and said slowly: "You'er, you did the right thing in this matter, and you didn't do it right. ”

Li You looked puzzled: "How do you understand what the queen mother said?" ”

Empress Chen's eyes twinkled slightly, and her brows did not spread: "When you found out that the cousin of the Hou Mansion was very likely to be your 'early death' cousin, why didn't you tell the queen mother as soon as possible?" ”

Li You didn't doubt him, and said with a smile: "Erchen knows, the queen mother heard about today's aunt's heart attack, and she is worried that Erchen is too hasty in doing things, and she is worried that her aunt's body can't bear it." The queen mother can rest assured that her son has mentioned it to her aunt before, so that she is prepared, but fortunately, nothing happened in the end......"

"Yes, fortunately, you finally stopped your aunt in time to confess your relatives, so that everything still has room to be saved, and this is also where you did the right thing."

Empress Chen's eyes sank for half a minute, her face was deep, and her heart was even heavier.

Empress Chen's words, even if Li You is such a smart person, couldn't understand it for a while, looked at Empress Chen's solemn face in a daze, and hesitated: "What the queen mother meant, it was actually me who helped my aunt find her lost cousin...... Done wrong? Why? ”

Empress Chen didn't continue, just looked at him and said in a deep voice: "You'er, your father is getting older, and his health is not as good as before, and the crown prince is one of your current priorities." Don't worry about other things, and the same goes for your aunt, and the queen mother will arrange it properly......"

Li Youyuan thought that he would be happy to find his long-lost daughter for his aunt, after all, his aunt's face was ruined back then, but it was for ......

But now, hearing the words of the queen mother, Li You's heart is sensitive to a bad strange feeling.

He was about to open his mouth to ask, but Queen Chen took his hand and said lovingly: "The queen mother knows that you are also filial piety to your aunt and the queen mother by doing all this. Over the years, you have taken good care of your aunt, and the queen mother is very happy. But you have to do it. And your aunt has also decided to find out the truth about your cousin first, and not to recognize her for the time being. Therefore, you should not meddle in this matter anymore, and you should not get too close to her, so as not to ...... Misleading. ”

Hearing this, Li You finally understood, his face sank, and he said coldly: "Does the queen mother want to regret it?" ”

As soon as Li You's words came out, Queen Chen's complexion changed greatly, and she immediately looked angrily at the trembling red sleeves on the side, and the red sleeves were so frightened that they knelt down with a 'pounce', and said in a trembling voice: "Niangniang Mingjian, the slave maid has never said a word, and it is not about the slave and maid, ...... it's not about the slave."

Empress Chen suppressed the panic in her heart and said sharply to Ah You: "Who are you listening to nonsense about the things back then......

Li You said: "The queen mother doesn't need to know how her sons know. The queen mother only needs to know that it was you who made a promise to your aunt back then, how can you go back and regret it! ”

Empress Chen's face turned pale, but her eyes were extremely firm, "It's not that the queen mother deliberately repented, but she didn't expect your aunt's daughter to die at all...... Moreover, the queen mother has already made a marriage with the queen mother to your marriage with the lord of Linrou - the arrow has left the string and cannot be recovered. ”

The county lord of Linrou is the granddaughter of the queen mother's elder brother Fu Engong, and Empress Chen set this family affair for Li You, intending to win over the power of the queen mother's family and add bargaining chips for Li You to win the heir.

Li You's whole body was shocked, and he couldn't believe it: "The queen mother is actually carrying her sons behind her back, and the marriage has been decided?!" ”

Now, Empress Chen has nothing to hide, so she has to persuade bitterly: "The power of the Queen Mother cannot be underestimated, and your father listens to the Queen Mother on weekdays, so if you can win over the Queen Mother, your position as the crown prince can be guaranteed." ”

"And if the queen mother doesn't settle this family affair with the queen mother early, I'm afraid that she will be robbed by other princes, so ......"

"So, is my mother going back on her promise?"

Back then, Queen Chen and Princess Wuning were both trapped in the fire, and Princess Wuning was able to escape in order to save Queen Chen, but when she turned around and pushed Queen Chen to the fire, she was burned by the fire......

Li You knew about the matter between his aunt and the queen mother, he thought of his aunt's pitiful and miserable life because of her ruined appearance, and thought of Shui Qingqing's appearance when she was bullied by Le Yi in the Hou Mansion that day, and his heart became inexplicably sad, and he even had the desire to protect them.

Therefore, after today's feast, when he heard from Aunt Pity that the queen mother had married him and his cousin in order to compensate for his aunt's saving grace, he had no resentment in his heart except for a moment, and he did not think about regretting it.

Because, it was the queen mother who owed her aunt back then, and it was a matter of course for her mother to repay her debts, so Li You has taken good care of her aunt like her own mother over the years.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that the person who repented was actually the queen mother......

In response to Li You's questioning, Empress Chen gritted her teeth and asked: "Are you willing to marry a lowly person who has been married or is a lady of Chongxi to be your princess?" The queen mother can tell you clearly that the day you marry her, it means that you will completely give up the crown prince - because the world of the Great Jin Dynasty will not let a widow be the queen! ”

"So, it's not that the queen mother is ungrateful and repents of not admitting this family business, but that the mother doesn't want to ruin your good future and let Dajin lose a good emperor because of a woman and a marriage!"

Li You's handsome face was pale, and his throat was rolling hard, but he couldn't say a word......

On the other side, on the way out of the palace, Aunt Lian looked at Princess Wuning with a tense face and a resentful face, and finally said lightly after hesitating for a long time: "Can the princess remember what Queen Chen promised you back then?" ”

Princess Wuning, who had recovered from her resentment, was slightly stunned when she heard Aunt Pian's words, and only after a moment did she smile bitterly and helplessly: "How could I not remember." Every time I see the Three Highnesses who are more and more filial, I think how good it would be if Qing'er was still there......"

"Princess, the little princess is still here, still alive, why didn't the princess mention this matter to the queen just now?"

The sun was gradually setting, and a little remnant sun fell on Aunt Pian's obscure face through the car window, making it impossible to see the expression on her face.

"Moreover, the queen mother is such a shrewd person, every time she saw the princess before, she would mention this matter, but this time, she suddenly stopped mentioning it......"

Aunt Pity's words made Princess Wuning's heart tremble, and her hands under her sleeves couldn't help but tremble, and she said gloomily after a long time: "Now that You'er has a noble status and intends to take the heir, I'm afraid that even if I recognize Qing'er, this matter will not be counted...... My sister doesn't mention it, that's what it means, how can I be strong, just ...... Just like that, my sister never said ......"

Hearing this, Aunt Pian's always kind face suddenly cracked, revealing a look of resentment, and she said unwillingly: "But princess, it was the queen who owed you back then, if it weren't for her, how would you be where you are now?" Maybe the queen's throne ......"

Princess Wuning stretched out her hand to stop Aunt Pian's words, and said in a rare stern voice: "Auntie, if you say this way, you are not allowed to say it a second time!" ”

Aunt Pian looked at Princess Wuning with a distressed face, and finally cried: "Princess, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the little princess." The county lord has missed too much, shouldn't the princess make up all these years for her regrets and guilt? ”

Princess Wuning was shocked, looked at Aunt Lian in a daze, and finally gritted her teeth and said after a while: "Yes, I want to compensate my daughter with the best thing in the world." ”

Hearing this, Aunt Lian finally smiled, "It's good that the princess has figured it out." ”

However, just when Princess Wuning decided to let the queen fulfill her promise and let the third prince Li You marry Shui Qingqing as the princess, the Dingguo Marquis Mansion was in turmoil because of Shui Qingqing......

And not only the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, the Sheng family was also shocked and boiling because of someone's sudden appearance!
