"What a happy event!" The husband and wife were slightly stunned when they heard this, but they were not the same as King Wei, and their personal relationship was not good, so after hearing the news, except for some surprises, there was nothing to be excited about, so they only called someone to reward the person who reported the news according to the rules, and ordered Qiaoqin and other big girls to prepare a gift list.

The next day, Song Yixiao took the congratulatory gift to the Wei Palace, and congratulated - the mother and daughter of the princess were all very flamboyant people, but now that the princess of Wei is pregnant, the flattering people will go forward one after another, so the people who congratulate outside the Wei Wangfu are simply busy, and the carriage of the Yan Guogong Mansion is almost blocked outside the door and can't get in.

Finally squeezed into the mansion, Song Yixiao almost had to line up to talk to Princess Wei, the two of them hadn't seen each other a few times, and they had a quarrel because of Jiang Muyao when they were in Zhanchun Pavilion, which would make Princess Wei naturally not give much face when she saw her, but she said a few words coldly, and said: "I'm tired, you go down!" ”

Although Song Yixiao's grade is half a level lower than her, they are relatives of each other, and the gap is not very large, Princess Wei said "go down" as if she was a subordinate, but her attitude was too contemptuous.

It's just that Song Yixiao didn't bother to bother with her, so she said "take care" when she heard the words, and left.

When she went out, she happened to meet Xie Yiren, and she was about to stop and say hello - Xie Yiren beckoned her aside with a look, and said in a suffrage: "So many people come to visit? Can Princess Wei eat it? ”

"She looked fine when I just went in." Song Yixiao chuckled and said, "Everyone has their own good, maybe she likes so many people to come to see her?" Concubine Jiang Xian is inconvenient in the palace, Aunt Daiguo will definitely be interested in her grandson, how can Princess Wei be really tired? ”

Xie Yiren thought about it, after all, this is the Wei Palace, even if they are relatives, it is not good for them to talk here for a long time, so they said goodbye after saying a few words.

Song Yixiao returned to the Yanguo Mansion, only to hear from the people below that Princess Wei's happy things made the royal family quite happy, and the queen mother, the emperor, and the virtuous concubine were all rewarded - but these are nothing, the point is that the eldest princess of the country took this as an excuse and went to Emperor Xianjia in person and said: "King Wei is a person who wants to be a father, how can he not do something practical?" ”

Before Emperor Xianjia edicted the king of Shu, the princes other than the king of Shu all entered the court, although the king of Wei was among them, and was also assigned to the head of the six ministries - but the emperor's nephew Xu Xioan was not pleased when he was stuffed into the ministry, this will be the emperor's own son King Wei is still not Jin Suke's opponent, these days, the king of Wei is nominally an errand in the ministry, but in fact it is purely in the ministry.

Xu Xio's mother-in-law, Princess Lu, died early, and she couldn't stand up for him, but the mother-in-law and aunt of the eldest princess of the country would not sit back and watch King Wei be set aside!

It's just that Jin Suke was not a good gentleman, otherwise he would not have let Xu Xi, who was the son of Yiping, go to the military department. What's more, now that he has taken refuge in the crown prince, how can he give face to the acting princess, the main force of the Wei Wang faction?

Allowing the acting princess to coerce and seduc, both soft and hard, she ignored it and just detained King Wei in the ministry as an idler. The so-called Zhao Wei King entered the dynasty to share the worries of the monarch's father and the prince, which naturally became an empty word.

This will be easy to get an excuse, the acting princess has also learned to be smart, don't entangle with Jin Suke, and go directly to Emperor Xianjia!

Sure enough, Emperor Xianjia didn't know whether it was for the face of the future emperor's grandson or the face of the emperor's sister, in short, he sent a message to Jin Suke, asking him to give King Wei "more opportunities to sharpen" - Chrysostom Yuyan came down, and Jin Suke couldn't continue to hard top, so he could only inform the East Palace: If Your Majesty doesn't change his mind, the power of the officials will have to be shared with King Wei!

In this kind of critical department, of course the prince's faction can't sit back and watch King Wei get involved!

It's just that when the crown prince was gathering everyone to discuss a counterattack, Gu Shao sent the king of Zhongling County to tell them: "Your Majesty just a few days ago because of Her Royal Highness Princess Yushan's inappropriate remarks, his condition worsened, so that within this year, I am afraid that he will not be able to look at the court!" Now Her Royal Highness the Elder Princess has not recovered if she doesn't read the royal body, and it's okay to mess around. His Royal Highness is the eldest son of His Majesty, and he is the prince at a young age, how can he be as knowledgeable as a woman?! ”

"What Gu Gong said is extremely true, nothing is more important than his father's recuperation at the moment!" The prince's faction deliberated for a long time around these words, and finally decided to adopt them, and the prince himself concluded, "If there is anything in the future, unless it is absolutely necessary, it is better not to disturb the father and the emperor—the aunt of Daiguo is favored by the emperor's grandmother and father, and she is not well considered; As a son of man, how can he not be filial? ”

- The prince's words were originally spread out of the East Palace, and after the government and the opposition heard about it, they all said that the prince was well aware of righteousness and filial piety and considerate; In contrast, the acting princess is as high-flying and domineering as ever, and the King of Wei, who has always given people a gentle and elegant impression, will inevitably appear hypocritical: in order to compete for power and power, he acquiesced in his mother-in-law to disturb his father who needed to recuperate, how could he be a son of man with such a character?

"His Royal Highness is the crown prince of His Majesty, who has lived in the East Palace for more than ten years and is known as a virtuous person. As long as His Royal Highness sits upright and does not give people a handle, then there is no reason to abolish the prince! When Gu Shao was summoned separately afterwards, he warned the prince, "This is His Royal Highness's greatest advantage - so His Royal Highness should remember the word 'stability', don't be too careful about everything, but be filial and respectful, this is the duty of the son of man, the more the merrier!" ”

"Win and lose!" At about the same time, the eldest princess of the acting country was also teaching King Wei, "The so-called fame is just the words of the winner's family!" As long as it is you who reigns over the world one day, all kinds of discussions today will turn into praise! There is no need to take the rumors to heart, squeeze out Jin Suke as soon as possible, and it is serious to take down the officials! ”

In addition to mentioning a son-in-law, taking advantage of Emperor Xianjia's relaxation, and grasping the actions of the officials, the acting princess of the country put her mind on the marriage again - after several rounds of secret bargaining, three days after Princess Wei spread the good news, the marriage between Ji Zifu and Su Shaoling, the seventh lady of the Su family, was finally confirmed!

Qingzhou Su has a profound heritage, since ancient times, good materials and beautiful jade are unbroken, and its name is known at home and abroad. The women in the clan are also well received, and there have been queens in the previous dynasty and this dynasty. Especially Su Shaoling's twin sister Su Shaomo, who has an impulsive temperament, and the two sisters have always been in and out together, which more and more sets off her chastity and thoughtfulness, gentleness and generosity.

This Seventh Lady, although she is low-key and does not like to be in the limelight, is recognized as the most stylish lady in the noble circle of the imperial capital.

In contrast, although Ji Zifu has an eldest princess and a hereditary marquis's father, the Ji family has only been around for three or four generations, and he is not even worthy of carrying shoes with the Su family's ancestors - even at present, Su Shaoling has a father-in-law, a brother who explores flowers, and an aunt who is the queen, and his family background may not be worse than him.

In fact, these are not enough, the key is that his own evaluation among the nobles is not very good.

When he first entered his youth, he was flamboyant and willful, and he could be said to be young and ignorant.

But when Da Rui was crusading against Wu Huan, a group of noble sons were captured - he is the culprit known to the world!

Topped with such a front. Branch, Ji Zifu doesn't have any outstanding talent or conduct, and it's really difficult to think about this reputation.

So after the news of the marriage between the two families came out, many people, including Song Yixiao, secretly choked Su Shaoling.

It's just that because of her relatives, she still has to pack up her things and go to the Acting Princess's Mansion to congratulate Jian Xubai.

The day they went was unfortunate, when the carriage did not arrive in front of the palace of the princess of the acting country, they had already seen the door of the mansion wide open, and Ji Weiguan, who was in a scarlet robe and a golden crown, strode out and personally greeted Qiu Shuxia, who was throwing the saddle and dismounting-this surnamed Qiu's enthusiasm for finding trouble with Jian Xubai was simply outrageous, and seeing that he had collided with him, Song Yixiao naturally had a headache.

Helplessly, under the eyes of everyone in this blue sky and daylight, it is impossible to turn around and avoid it, right? Where is the face of the Yan Guo Mansion? The surname Qiu is also becoming more and more arrogant.

Song Yixiao's heart was racing, and she couldn't help but imagine how her husband would not fall off the handle after she pinched Qiu Shuxia later. It was only after a moment that he got out of the carriage, and he realized that the Acting Princess's Mansion had already made preparations - Ji Zifu was specially sent to beckon them to sit in the back garden.

"We are seriously coming to congratulate our cousin on marriage, and it is already rude to enter the door without first meeting my aunt and uncle." Song Yixiao was relieved to see this situation, but Jian Xubai smiled and said, "Why don't you even have the qualifications to go to the main hall for tea now, and you can only be sent to the back garden?" ”

Ji Zifu said with an indifferent face: "Naturally, I am afraid that you will go to the hall to take a picture with Cousin Qiu, and you will have to roll up your sleeves and fight for three hundred rounds - the problem is that you can't fight to the death now, except for defeat, it is a toss, is it interesting?" It's better to take your younger siblings to the back garden for a walk, now although the spring flowers are gone, but a walk between the thick and light green, it can also be pleasant. ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Song Yi and smiled, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen my brother and sister for a few days!" How are your siblings doing? ”

"Cousin Xie cares, we're fine." Song Yixiao looked at her husband with concern, but she didn't notice that his attitude towards her was obviously gentler than that of Jian Xubai, in fact, it didn't matter if she noticed her, she looked at Ji Zifu when she heard the words, and said politely, "I haven't congratulated my cousin on hiring a lady!" ”

"Congratulations?" Ji Zifu saw her perfunctory, a touch of disappointment flashed in her eyes, she turned her head to hide it, and then snorted softly, "Everyone says it's a happy event, so forget it - Ah Xu, do you think it's good?" Do you go to the main hall to quarrel with Cousin Qiu, or do you want to go to the back hall with me for recreation? If you want to go to the main hall, I won't stop you, but you think about it: your younger brother and sister are also here today, you just won Cousin Qiu's this time, believe it or not, your younger brother and sister have to apologize for you for a long time? Otherwise, if they know about the emperor's grandmother, they will definitely blame their younger brothers and sisters for not being virtuous! ”

His last few words convinced Jian Xubai - Jian Xubai was not afraid of Qiu Shuxia, but he didn't want to bring trouble to his wife. Especially when he and Qiu Shuxia got together, it was inevitable that they would mention the current situation and government politics, and even expose each other's recent tricks, which were exactly what he didn't want his wife to get involved too much.

But now that Song Yixiao is following him step by step, it is impossible for him to leave her here and go to the main hall alone.

Hearing this, a touch of ruthlessness flashed between his eyebrows, and he said lightly: "What can you prepare for pastime?" ”

Of course, Ji Zifu didn't prepare any good pastime - he just led them around the garden, and after he was tired, he went to the pavilion to have tea for a while, and when he saw that the time was about the same, he said goodbye in vain, and he got up to send him off.

On the way out of the princess's mansion, Ji Zifu thought for a while before finding a reason to talk to Song Yixiao: "Brother and sister seem to know Miss Su Qi?" ”

"Seventh Miss Zhong Lingyu is beautiful, smart and quiet." Song Yixiao only said that he wanted to inquire about his fiancée, and immediately said without thinking, "And beautiful and lovely, my cousin can get Miss Seven as his wife, and I will definitely thank Aunt Daiguo in the future." ”

She is wearing a wide-sleeved curved skirt embroidered with white camellia flowers in impatiens today, and the placket, show, and hem are all inlaid with a two-inch-wide shallow concubine woven gold brocade, tied with a waist seal of the same color, and a lotus skirt under the skirt - whether it is phoenix pink or light concubine or lotus color, they are all more delicate colors, but Song Yixiao's temperament is quiet and dignified, and this dress is worn on her, but it is mostly gentle.

At this moment, I really praised Su Shaoling, the watery apricot eyes were full of sincerity and seriousness, and when I turned my head slightly, the sun of April outlined a soft face arc, looking like the first blooming begonia, delicate and bright.

Ji Zifu glanced at it and didn't dare to look at it again, but after turning his gaze away, he couldn't help but glance at it, and for a while he only felt that his heart was in a mess, and he didn't even know how to send away Jian Xubai and his wife, and he just thought about it over and over again: "What's wrong with me?" ”

Although his cousin Ji Mingfei is known to the government and the opposition to regard ethics as floating clouds, his own reputation is better than Ji Mingfei's and limited-but the two cousins are different after all, Ji Mingfei likes people. wife, the ownerless famous flower is also of limited interest; Ji Zifu couldn't do such a rebellious thing: not to mention that Song Yixiao obviously didn't have any thoughts about him, his cousin was simple, how could he be the one who allowed others to cuckold him?!

"Fortunately, I'm about to get married." Ji Zifu returned to his room, came in with cold water, twisted a handkerchief and put it on his face, and sighed deeply, "After getting married, I have my own wife, so I don't think about it anymore!" ”

It's just that when I think of my wife, what unexpectedly appears in front of me is that on the day of the Zhanchun Pavilion, in the surging wind and snow, Song Yixiao, who was hugging the fox fur, stretched out his fingers and brushed his sideburns, his face was slightly pale from the cold, and he looked at himself with half fear and half surprise.

The handkerchief that was removed was slammed into the basin, splashing for a while, like Ji Zifu's mood at the moment.
