Chapter 220, Jiang Wanru's banquet
There is a way that marriage is destined, the princess of Nanyue and the four princes are inseparable, and it is only a few months before the day of marriage, but it has changed.
The emperor had considered the five princes before, but because the five princes had no chance to have an heir in this life, he had to give up.
In the previous life, the princess of Nanyue Kingdom refers to the acting king who was married, and the one who was chosen in this life is also the acting king, the difference is that the marriage between the princess of Nanyue and the acting king in the previous life was ordered by the emperor, but in this life, the princess of Nanyue took the initiative to mention.
In addition, there were no side concubines or anything around the previous generation of kings, the princess of Nanyue was the first woman of the king, and this generation of kings had already married two side concubines, although the princess of Nanyue was the main family, but it was neither the first nor the only.
As soon as the news came out that the princess of Nanyue had chosen to act as the king, Su Jinyan's first thought was how her sister Su Qingyi should deal with herself in the future·····
Although it is the meaning of the princess of Nanyue at the moment, the emperor decreed marriage, and the acting king does not have her in his heart, but what about the future, who will say what will happen in the future?
Even if the acting king doesn't like it, but for the sake of the diplomatic relations between the two countries, he can't be left out in the cold!
What's more, the princess of Nanyue is a first-class beauty, better than the rebel sister Su Qingyi, and the acting king is the first beautiful man in the Dashun Dynasty, and the princess of Nanyue is a talented woman·····
The princess of Nanyue chose to act as the king, and as soon as the news came out, the wind direction of the entire Lin'an City changed, and everyone was eager to watch the good show of the acting king's mansion.
You must know that the previous Wang Ke was still moved by a righteous girl in the fifth room of the Pingguo Mansion, and now he has been taken by the princess of Nanyue Kingdom, this one is a righteous daughter born as a maid, and the other is a princess of a country.
When the news reached the Dai Wang's Mansion, Su Qingyi just paused and quickly calmed down.
She had thought of this a long time ago, she was just an adopted daughter of a five-room princess in the mansion, and the side concubine who could become the acting king was already a sparrow turned into a phoenix, and she never thought that she would monopolize the acting king alone in this life.
What's more, wasn't there another Jiangbian concubine Jiang Wanru who entered the mansion with her before, this is just one more generation of princesses, nothing?
Compared with Su Qingyi's calmness, the other side concubine Jiang Wanru is not calm, she has not yet been favored by the acting king, and she has not suppressed Su Qingyi, who was born as a maid, there will be another princess soon, and she is also a princess of a country.
Jiang Wanru's lungs were about to explode, she threw a lot of things, and the maids who served her were frightened one by one, lowering their heads and trying to reduce their sense of existence, for fear that one would accidentally provoke the master's unhappiness.
The emperor has already decreed that the acting king will marry the princess of Nanyue in three months, the matter is a foregone conclusion, what can Su Jinyan do, he can only take one step at a time!
Su Qingyi was married to the acting king as a side concubine to the acting king's mansion, which was Su Jinyan's first mistake, and the second mistake was that the princess of Nanyue fell in love with the acting king.
The two mistakes made Su Jinyan panic in her heart, if she continued like this, would there be many things beyond her expectations, outside of her plan?
That night, Su Jinyan put on a black night suit and went to Xianzifang to discuss things with Gu Xingda's shopkeeper and discuss what to do next.
Regarding Su Jinyan's actions these days, Gu Xingda's shopkeeper also guessed a little, but he did not approve of Su Jinyan's actions, although this may restore the prestige of the Yingyang Lu clan, but it is not the best way.
In the eyes of Gu Xingda's shopkeeper, after all, he still felt that Su Jinyan was not the real bloodline of the Lu family, so he also had reservations about Su Jinyan a few things, plus the news he inquired about from the Chen family a few days ago······
The information that Gu Xingda got from his father was that their master was a descendant of the Yingyang Lu family, and now the descendants of the Yingyang Lu family are no longer there, and only some collateral relatives are still alive, or granddaughters like Su Jinyan.
Because of this reason, the shopkeeper Gu Xing did not completely regard Su Jinyan as his master, at most half of the master·····
Gu Xingda's shopkeeper's hesitation, Su Jinyan naturally saw it in his eyes, and he was helpless about it, who made her just an eleven-year-old woman, and she was not surnamed Lu, but she had a quarter of Lu's blood.
After returning to the Su family, Su Jinyan realized a serious problem, in the past, he relied too much on Gu Xing's big shopkeeper, and never considered cultivating his own forces, so that he was so passive now.
Anyway, Gu Xingda's shopkeeper will be like this for the time being, there must be a few of his own people on his side, in case one day Gu Xingda's shopkeeper turns his face and denies people, won't he be slaughtered by others at that time.
But according to his current situation, how can he cultivate his own people, and he can't cultivate any powerful subordinates in a short period of time······
Su Jinyan was sullen, the whole person was in a very unhappy mood, and he was listless all day, until half a month later, when Jiang Wanru, the concubine of the palace, held a banquet, and Su Jinyan worked hard to cheer up.
Jiang Wanru, the side concubine of the acting king, held a banquet, naturally with the consent of Su Qingyi, the side concubine who is now temporarily in charge of the affairs of the acting king's mansion, because Su Qingyi was born in the fifth room of the Su family, so the Su Jinyan sisters naturally also got the invitation letter.
On the day of the banquet, Su Jinyan dressed up carefully, and then followed his mother Xie and sister Su Jinchu to the Daiwang Mansion.
Jiang Wan held a banquet like this, and in the name of it, she had obtained some seasonal fruits, and invited the wives and ladies of the ministers of the DPRK and China to taste them, but the real purpose, who doesn't know?
It is nothing more than wanting to take this opportunity to make friends with some ministers in the DPRK and China, and then guarantee that after the princess of Nanyue marries in the future, she will not even have the qualifications to fight.
Su Jinyan will choose to go to this banquet, mainly because he wants to take this opportunity to see his sister Su Qingyi, and then discuss what to do next, how to deal with herself after the princess of Nanyue Kingdom marries into the palace of the acting king.
Except for Su Jinyan's mother and daughter, most of the others at the banquet were the concubines of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, Su Jinyan guessed a little, Jiang Wan did this just to suppress Su Qingyi.
When they arrived at the Daiwang Mansion, there were already ladies and ladies gathered together to whisper, and as soon as Su Jinyan's mother and daughter entered, many people looked at them, and Xie was stunned, and then tried to pretend that nothing happened.
The guests invited by Jiang Wanru are nothing more than some friends with the second room of their Jiang family, most of them are some concubines or side ladies and ladies, and the real descendants are not looking down on her banquet as the side concubine of the king, even if they send an invitation, they are also rejected.
As for why these ladies and ladies are like this at this moment, Su Jinyan naturally knows what's going on, and she naturally doesn't pay attention to Jiang Wanru's little tricks.
Anyway, no matter how many tricks Jiang Wanru plays, she can't deny the fact that she is not as favored as Su Qingyi in the Daiwang Mansion, and now she is not favored, and after the princess of Nanyue Kingdom marries in the future, she will definitely become more and more unfavored.
Although Su Qingyi is the adopted daughter of the Su family, she is very favored by the king, at least before the princess of Nanyue married in, and now there are still more than two months before the princess of Nanyue marries in, as long as she is pregnant with the heir of the king of Nanyue in these two months, even if the princess of Nanyue marries in, her status will not be shaken.
Su Jinyan came here today mainly to see Su Qingyi's physical condition, and then recuperate, and strive to conceive a child before the princess of Nanyue Kingdom got married······
The banquet was held by Jiang Wanru, and naturally the main person to greet was Jiang Wanru, and Su Qingyi came after Su Jinyan's mother and daughter arrived.
There is no harm if there is no comparison, without Su Qingyi by the side, Jiang Wanru still looks delicate, but as soon as Su Qingyi appeared on the stage, she was immediately compared to worthless.
Many ladies and ladies moved their eyes back and forth on Su Qingyi and Jiang Wanru's faces, and finally got an answer, Jiang Wanru is indeed inferior to Su Qingyi, neither in temperament nor appearance.
Su Qingyi's appearance made these ladies and ladies understand why Jiang Wanru, a serious concubine from the Jiang family, was not as good as Su Qingyi, the righteous daughter of the Su family.
Marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous woman, taking a concubine, although this side concubine has entered the royal family, she can only be regarded as a high-level concubine, and she is naturally favored by her beautiful and moving appearance······
"Sister Su!" Jiang Wanru's face was grim for a moment, and she quickly regained her composure, and then smiled and greeted Su Qingyi.
Su Qingyi naturally did not forget to return the salute, both of them were side concubines, and it was normal for them to salute each other.
Su Qingyi came to Jiang Wanru's banquet, but it was just a formality, and then she didn't stay for a while and found a reason to be busy, and asked Su Jinyan's mother and daughter to come over to talk.
Seeing that her sister-in-law Su Qingyi dealt with it with ease, and did not forget to taunt Jiang Wanru when she left, Su Jinyan also breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, her previous worries were completely unnecessary.
There is a way to be preconceived, the princess of Nanyue has not yet married into the palace of the king, and the sister has been married for a month, and she has won the favor of the king, according to the current situation, as long as there is no physical problem, the heir will be sooner or later.
In addition, as long as he doesn't do anything particularly excessive, the acting king will not be disgusted, after all, it was the acting king himself who took the initiative to marry, and the Su family did not catch up.
"Mother-in-law!" Entering Su Qingyi's courtyard, Su Jinyan looked around and found that the surrounding scenery was excellent, and the items placed were extremely valuable, so Su Jinyan was relieved.
Su Jinyan and the others have not yet saluted Su Qingyi, the side concubine, Su Qingyi took the lead in making a big salute to the Xie family, where did the Xie family see the side concubine of the dignified palace give a big salute to herself, and hurriedly asked Su Qingyi to get up.
Su Qingyi's mother-in-law, Mama An, was very eye-catching, and at this time, she drove the people out without Su Qingyi's orders, and personally guarded the door, leaving the space to Su Jinyan and others.
Xie Shi and Su Qingyi were talking, Su Jinyan and Su Jinchu sisters interjected a few words from time to time, and even Su Jingui, who was only seven years old, was well-behaved and sensible.
After saying something, Su Jinyan found an excuse to let her mother Xie, sister Su Jinchu, and sister Su Jingui go to visit the garden, while she stayed alone to talk to Su Qingyi.
Xie knew that his second daughter was a powerful one, so he took his eldest daughter and younger daughter out after a few words.
After the three of Xie's mother and daughter went out, Su Jinyan did not beat around the bush, and directly asked Su Qingyi how her life was in the Acting King's Mansion and how the Acting King treated her, and after getting Su Qingyi's answer, Su Jinyan was also a lot more relieved.
However, Su Jinyan still didn't forget to tell Su Qingyi to be careful of Jiang Wanru, that woman, as for the princess of Nanyue who has not yet married, she doesn't need to think about it for the time being.
The princess of Nanyue is not from the Dashun Dynasty, and in addition, she has not yet married into the palace of the king, so there is absolutely no reason to place someone into the palace of the king at this time.
In addition, Su Jinyan did not forget to show Su Qingyi the condition of her body to see if there was a loss that was not conducive to pregnancy or anything, and the result of pulse diagnosis was that there was no loss and she was very healthy.
However, Su Jinyan had a little doubt in her heart, but she couldn't be sure, so she only told Su Qingyi to be careful during this time, not to be angry, and to find an opportunity to return to the Pingguo Mansion in half a month, or ask her to come over and take a look.
Su Qingyi's pulse was slightly pregnant, but it was very slight and invisible, in order not to make an oolong incident, so Su Jinyan didn't tell her, only told her to pay more attention to her body.
Leaving Su Qingyi's courtyard, Su Jinyan's mother and daughter walked in the direction of the banquet, and saw the noise at the banquet from a distance, Su Jinyan had a bad premonition in his heart, and ran over.
When I saw it in front of me, Su Jinyan's whole popularity was not light, Jiang Wanru held a banquet this time and invited them, and she really came prepared·····
In the middle of the banquet, Xiao Du, who was also invited from the seventh room of the Su family, and Su Jinxin, a twenty girl of the same age as her in the seventh room, knelt on the ground with a pale face.
Xiao Du's face was dull, and Su Jinxin's ten finger prints on his face were very eye-catching.
Seeing Su Jinyan's arrival, Xiao Du's dull eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and then stared blankly at a pool of blood not far away.
Su Jinyan looked for a maid next to him to ask, only to learn what was going on, it turned out that a while after they left, Jiang Wanru's maiden sister-in-law, the Zhang family from the queen mother's mother's family, walked past Su Jinxin, and somehow fell to the ground, turning blood on the spot.
Zhang immediately shouted that her child had fallen, and shouted for Jiang Wanru, the acting princess, to give her justice, Su Jinxin just refuted one or two sentences, and was slapped by Jiang Wanru, and now Jiang Wanru's maiden sister-in-law Zhang has already been carried to the wing, and Jiang Wanru also followed.
Su Jinyan looked at the blood stains on the ground that were obviously not the right color, his eyes flashed at this time, and he muttered two words in Xie Shi's ear, Xie Shi had an expression of disbelief, and then quickly returned to Su Qingyi's courtyard again.
