Chapter 023: Once Upon a Grudge
Chen Ying didn't pay attention to it when he heard this, but Chen Lu couldn't listen to it anymore, and sneered: "What about hiding clumsy? At least at the critical moment, the third sister didn't hide it. As he spoke, he hooked his lips disdainfully: "The fourth sister is very smart and clever, and she knows when to speak and when to be dumb." ”
This is an allusion to Chen Han's refusal to help yesterday.
Chen Han was robbed of her white, but she didn't dare to treat her like she did to Chen Xiang, she rolled her eyes, and patted her heart and said: "I didn't say anything, what did the eldest sister do so violently, it's really scary." On the other hand, he turned to Chen Ying, his face full of grievances: "The third sister didn't say that she would help me with everything, or is it not a family of sisters?" ”
Chen Yi immediately sneered: "At this time, the fourth sister remembers that everyone is sisters, if there is really something, the first one to run is the fourth sister." The sisters in the mouth of the fourth sister are really worthless. ”
Chen Han's face changed and he opened his mouth to speak, but Chen Ying suddenly asked Chen Lu: "What else does the big sister want to ask?" ”
This question interrupted Chen Han's counterattack, Chen Han's face sank, and his open mouth closed again.
Chen Lu was pulled back to his senses by these words, glanced at Chen Han, and stopped talking.
Chen Ying immediately understood what she wanted to ask, and twisted the corners of her mouth: "If the eldest sister wants to inquire about the old lady of the Wang family and the eldest princess's mansion, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Chen Yi's eyes widened suddenly, and he said in surprise: "Third sister, how do you know that I want to say this?" ”
"What's going on in the Eldest Princess's Mansion? Which royal family? Chen Han also forgot about Fang Cai's quarrel and asked repeatedly.
Chen Ying didn't answer, turned around and waved his hand to Xun Zhen, Xun Zhen bowed down and stood outside the corridor.
"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that very few people know about it." Chen Ying picked up the teacup and drank tea, and continued to twist the corners of her mouth: "In a few days, this matter may spread all over the world, so it's okay to say it now." ”
"That'll be fine." Chen Yi let go of his heart, no longer cared about Chen Han, and only said to Chen Ying: "Please also ask the third sister to elaborate." ”
Chen Han didn't speak, only opened his eyes wide and listened intently.
Chen Ying said: "It was more than a year ago, the old lady of the Wang family once sneaked out of the back door and wandered outside, and somehow as soon as he came, he walked to the door of the eldest princess's mansion, and also collided with a steward of the eldest princess's mansion, and the steward broke one of the old lady's legs. ”
"How can there be such a thing?" Chen Lu's face was surprised, and his eyes widened: "It's the first time I've heard of it." ”
"Last year, Mrs. Song held a tea party, and that's when I heard about it." Chen Ying explained again.
She didn't mention the names of the Wang sisters, so Chen Luo was smart not to ask.
As for Chen Han, she was still digesting the previous news and was still silent.
Chen Ying drank tea slowly, and turned her eyes to the window.
In fact, the original story of this matter is far from being so simple, and the ending is far from one-sided. That old lady Wang didn't suffer at all. He had a pig-killing knife in his hand, and the housekeeper's hair was cut in half directly, or no one would have broken his legs.
In addition, the old man not only killed a good pig, but also had a good voice like a pig, and howled until the long history of the princess's mansion came out, so that the matter could be settled.
The long history and steward had never seen the old lady Wang, and he was only unlucky afterwards, and he was so embarrassed by an old man in the countryside, but the Wang brothers recognized the eldest princess, and only suppressed it quietly.
Yesterday's incident can be regarded as an opportunity for the Wang brothers to find revenge, and this pair of filial sons will definitely not leave it alone in vain.
After inquiring about what they wanted to inquire about, Chen Yi, Chen Han and the others left, and this matter came to an end in the Guogong Mansion.
Chen Ying's life has returned to calm, and there are no other changes except for a better relationship with Chen Yi.
Spring in March, summer in April, flowers are like brocade and finally gone, instead, is full of verdant greenery, the breeze of early summer blows through the Qingjiang River outside the city, in the Shengjing City with a warm atmosphere.
Chen Yi's ceremony was held at the beginning of this month.
The girl and the lady of the Guogong Mansion have never invited outsiders, after all, the status of the grandfather of the country is high enough, and Mrs. Xu is a good order, and several aunts and grandmothers back then all acted in a low-key manner.
But this year is an exception.
Chen Yi's ceremony not only invited many VIPs to watch the ceremony, but also held a very grand ceremony, the praise ceremony was personally undertaken by Mrs. Xu, and the guests invited the lord of Anqing who had not been out for a long time, and the rest such as the rejector, the deacon and even the musician, etc., were all from the family, and it was obvious that the Xu family had made great efforts to invite them.
After the ceremony, Chen Yi's marriage was put on the agenda, and Xu was even more keen to take her out for entertainment, and it is said that he has already met several talents, and he has to think carefully before making a decision.
These hustle and bustle, Yu Chen Ying has no effect, she still has to do what she should do, occasionally participate in a flower banquet tea party or something, and she still doesn't like to talk. And her reputation in Wuling Biezhuang has gradually returned to dullness in this turbulent time.
After the solar term, everything in the Guogong Mansion was changed, the brocade curtain was replaced with a Hunan curtain, and the curtain was pasted again. Xu asked someone to take out the ice chisel early, wash it and put it in the shade to dry, and waited for it to be used when it was hot.
What happened on that day has almost been forgotten.
As Chen Ying had predicted before, Empress Dowager Xiao and the Eldest Princess's Mansion were all stumped by the Wang family, to be precise, by the Wang Yushi, and they had no time to take care of the Guogong Mansion.
The eldest princess and the lord of Xiangshan County exceeded the system of clothing, this matter can be big or small, but the lord of Xiangshan County bullied others, and also bullied the head of the pillars of the country, with this reason, Wang You naturally has the ability to expand the matter to infinity.
From March to April, in the past two months, the excerpts of the impeachment of the Empress Dowager Xiao and the eldest princess will come every now and then, and the imperial cases of Emperor Yuanjia will be piled up day by day, giving the emperor a headache.
Wang You gave full play to his influence among the scholars of the Han family, led a group of young imperial historians, and launched a crusade against Emperor Yuanjia's mother and sister. Although the momentum of this crusade is not too large, it is like a long stream, one fold after another, and it has hardly been interrupted.
And with more and more impeachments, many of the eldest princess's bad deeds have also been revealed, and even some things before her marriage have been put on the table.
The forcible occupation of land and the bullying and domination of the market are all considered light, and there are even great evils such as detaining good people, disregarding people's lives, and even secretly possessing weapons. If everything is true, the eldest princess's head is not enough to cut off.
Of course, it is impossible for Emperor Yuan Jia to cut off his sister's head, but the necessary posture still has to be put forward.
