Chapter 37: Peach Blossoms

Song Yixiao knew Bao Ying's thoughts, and was furious in her heart, but her face was silent, and said: "Confessing guilt means confessing guilt, in the final analysis, being led by the nose, this is the next step!" Though you are faithful to the Lord, you are not smart enough! ”

"Miss Song means that you can prove the innocence of our side, the kind that doesn't even leave the slightest handle for rumor-mongering?" Bao Ying was not angry when she heard this, she raised her eyebrows and cross-examined, "The slave is stupid, please be merciful and give me some advice!" ”

You're so demanding! Not only must you prove your innocence, but you must not even have rumors - even if the holy decree is issued, you can't protect someone from chewing a few words of tongue behind your back!

Song Yi laughed angrily: "Baoying, you'd better understand one thing, I owe the Jiang family, and I don't owe it to the point where I need to be a cow and a horse!" ”

Just because she doesn't have a backer doesn't mean that she has no backbone, she wants her to bow her head when she brings out Concubine Jiang Xian and the Jiang family? ! Dream!

No matter how cold the Hengshan Mansion is, after all, the brocade clothes and jade food have supported her for six years, and she is still unwilling to let the princess of Hengshan be around! What's more, Jiang Muyao also received her half of the banquet? actually counted on her to repay with her life, did this Baoying not wake up, or did she have the words "good bully" written on her face?!

"What's more, although I send people under the fence, just look at what I am wearing now, and the world should know that Hengshan Wangfu treats me well!" Song Yixiao ignored Bao Ying's ugly face and continued to say coldly, "Why do you think I will take revenge?!" ”

- She was raised in the Hengshan Palace, she is going to ruin her reputation, can she not affect Lu Ko'er and them?!

Can Hengshan Wangfu not care about his stepdaughter, can he not care about his own daughter?

Even if the Jiang family is powerful, even if there are virtuous concubines in the palace, if they want to plant a false accusation in front of their clansmen, they have to weigh it!

Bao Ying thought that after the scene just now, even the pampered Jiang Muyao was in a state of confusion, not to mention Song Yi's laughter. She was aggressive as soon as she came up, and pressed her with momentum - forgive Song Yixiao for a girl who was only fourteen years old, and there was no reliable elder behind her to maintain her, and a little threat and intimidation could always make her give in.

Unexpectedly, Song Yixiao was determined, no matter how much she threatened and seduced, she didn't let go, and she was the first to say that she was unwilling to implicate the Hengshan Palace, so that Baoying wanted to accuse her of living up to Jiang Muyao's love.

"Miss Song is serious, and the slave maid also considers that even if my young lady admits the matter, Miss Song was also present at the time, and she can't get out of the relationship in the end, and she can't help my young lady." Bao Ying suppressed the anger in her heart and said calmly, "Wouldn't such a poisoning plan make the relatives and enemies happy?" ”

The conversation changed, "Miss Song has a clever plan, why not tell me?" After all, after Cui Jianlian wakes up, we will have to confront each other, and if we don't agree with each other at that time, I'm afraid there will be trouble again! ”

She didn't forget to dominate the scene - Song Yi smiled and swept her sideburns, and her tone mocked: "If it weren't for the first time I saw Sister Jiang, I was introduced by Sister Yuan in person." I thought you were Miss Jiang! ”

Bao Ying's face froze: "The slave and maid have indeed overpassed, but this extraordinary period ......"

Jiang Muyao, who had been silent, finally made up her mind and interrupted: "Baoying, you are enough!" I know that my mother specially sent you to serve me for my own good. But now this matter, Yixiao has been persuading me from beginning to end, but I refused to listen to the persuasion on my own fire, not only did I fall for it, but also affected her. Now I want to force her to confess to me, I can't do such a sinful thing, if you say that she will confess again, I will immediately go to the county lord of Qingjiang to admit that I pushed Cui Jianlian! ”

Bao Ying almost vomited blood: "Miss!! ”

"I thought about it, I just admitted that I pushed Cui Jianlian, so what?!" Jiang Muyao gritted her teeth and said, "Her maid broke the jade step shake left to me by my grandmother, and it is only natural for me to beat her!" She fell and had an accident, she deserved it, she was blessed, her life was not good! Your Majesty is still here, her aunt can speak for her in front of His Majesty, can't my aunt speak for me?! ”

sneered again, "Let's talk about my business, Your Majesty has approved it, her aunt is not a biological mother, two is not an adoptive mother, and three is not a grandmother, is it possible that she still wants to point fingers again!?" So, why should I laugh and confess, how about I push her? After a while, if the doctor diagnoses that the injury is not serious enough, I want to beat her up again! ”

"It's not that simple!" Bao Ying raised her hand to support her forehead, she almost wanted to faint, but she couldn't care about Song Yixiao's master and servant, and said, "You forgot that last time in the imperial garden, the lord of Nanzhang and His Royal Highness the King of Wei ......"

Speaking of this, he was suddenly silenced, and after a pause, Fang said bitterly, "Miss, this is a matter of a lifetime, how good Your Majesty is to Rong Dai, Your Royal Highness the Princess, don't you know!" On this eye bone, we must not leave any handle! ”

Jiang Muyao bit her lower lip, but still shook her head slowly: "I believe in my cousin!" ”

Song Yixiao glanced at her with complicated eyes - Jiang Muyao called King Wei "cousin" instead of His Royal Highness, which shows that there is indeed friendship between her and King Wei.

I don't know if these two people failed to get married in their previous lives, whether it was the King of Wei who lost Jiang Muyao, or the lord of Nanzhang County who snatched love with a knife?

Or, both?

She stopped her thoughts and said lightly: "Sister Jiang is the niece of Concubine Xian, and she is also the princess of Quasi-Wei. That Cui Jianlian is Cui Guifei's niece, but she doesn't know today's banquet, has she also made a decision? ”

She remembered that the prince's half-brother, Cui Guifei's youngest son, King Liang, should also be at the age of marriage.

"Everyone thinks that she should be Princess Zhun Liang, but I'm not sure what she looks like today." Jiang Muyao swept her sideburns and sneered, "Dare to fall at such a high placeβ€”most of them have to play with their lives because they have been pinched, right?" ”

"Actually, I dare to wrestle like that." Song Yi smiled and said lightly, "It's nothing more than to lower your waist first and then roll up a dozen stone steps, as long as the stone steps are clean, and pay attention not to hit the sides, slow down a dozen steps, dozens of steps to roll down is like that!" ”

Jiang Muyao and Baoying were both stunned: "Really? ”

"My young lady has been practicing dance for six years, and the female gentlemen praise Miss for her willingness to endure hardships and talent." The crisp sound of brocade smoke corroborates, "Miss said it's okay, then it will definitely not happen!" ”

It's not that Jiang Muyao and Baoying didn't know each other, but when things happened suddenly, they didn't pay attention to it; Second, practicing dance is extremely hard, and the squeamish ladies are all superficial, Jiang Muyao is an example, although Bao Ying is shrewd, she is a serious maid, and it is impossible to learn dance music.

I don't know how to learn art, and I don't have much interest in it, so I don't know it, where can I see the trick of Cui Jianlian's fall?

It's Song Yixiao, her life experience is zero, she can't help but fight for the future, she is the least afraid of hardships when she learns things, and there is nothing she is not good at in the women's school.

She took a sip of tea and added, "When I saw Cui Jianlian above, just looking at her light steps, I knew that she would not have practiced dance for less years than me!" ”

Song Yixiao still didn't say anything: To be Princess Liang, you don't need to be good at singing and dancing, if it weren't for Cui Jianlian's personal preference, it is estimated that the Cui family's purpose is not to make her a princess at all, but to target the East Palace - there are many favorite concubines who have danced in the city throughout the ages!

"But she's lying there yelling uncomfortable, and we can't run up and say she's pretending." Bouillon pondered, then sighed.

"Cui Jianlian's identity is no less than that of Sister Jiang, she personally went into battle to slander you, and it is impossible to give up!" Song Yixiao didn't bother to pay attention to her, and only said to Jiang Muyao, "So the injury she suffered this time will not be good in a short time, otherwise how can she make things bigger?" ”

Jiang Muyao hated: "I don't want to bear this reputation in vain!" I'll go and confess my mistake to the county lord of Qingjiang first, and I'll beat ...... when I'm done."

After going around and around for a long time, she was still worried about beating people - Bao Ying, who was ordered by the master mother to escort her own young lady, already wanted to hit the wall, but Song Yixiao nodded with a smile: "Sister Jiang should really find a chance to go to Cui Jianlian to make a scene in a while!" ”

…… Above the mountainside, a fan-shaped pavilion is built on the cliff, wrapped in the peach blossoms that bloom in this season.

However, from the dense branches, you can still clearly see the square where the banquet is held below.

Plain blue and simple white wide sleeves in the wind, fluttering clothes, holding a jade cup, gently shaking the amber wine, leaning on the side of the railing, it is inevitable to listen to Ji Su's introduction to the ladies who went to the banquet one by one - suddenly saw a maid walking on the mountain path, whispered a few words to the county lord of Qingjiang, and the county lord of Qingjiang immediately pulled over the county lord of Nanzhang to advise, and got up and left the table without hesitation.

He couldn't help but pause when he handed the jade cup to his lips: "What happened, and I want the eldest sister to deal with it herself?" ”

"Grandpa, I'm afraid you didn't know when you just came over, half an hour ago, Miss Jiang and Miss Cui had a dispute on the mountain path below, and I don't know if Miss Jiang lost her hand or Miss Cui didn't stand well, in short, Miss Cui fell, it is said that it took more than ten steps to stop, and the person fainted on the spot." Ji Su was born in the palace and was the best at inquiring about news, not to mention that the county lord of Qingjiang did not deliberately hide this matter from him, and he would tell Jian Xubai about 1510.

Finally, he said, "Oh, Miss Song, the one I met in the Marquis of Boling's Mansion, was also involved with Miss Jiang today. Previously, the county lord asked Miss Cui for a doctor, saying that when she woke up, he would let the two sides confront each other on the spot, which would think that Miss Cui had woken up. ”

Jian Xubai had no interest in the battle in the boudoir, and he planned to hear about it, but Ji Su mentioned Song Yixiao - how can he be regarded as an acquaintance, and he has the impression that she is a smart and sensible girl with a bad fate, purely out of love, and people can't bear to sit back and watch her fall into a predicament, he can't help but groan.

"The eldest sister will have to wait for Cui's to wake up and confront her, I'm afraid she is also suspicious of Cui's fall." However, Jian Xubai thought about it, "Otherwise, so many people will fall down after seeing the Jiang family pulling and pulling with the Cui family, how can they apply for a few words from the Jiang family first, instead of letting her change places to drink the banquet." ”

After all, they are sisters and brothers of the same mother, and Jian Xubai still knows the county lord of Qingjiang very well, "With the means of the eldest sister, it is easy to find out." I'm meddling in the snake, and it's easy to cause misunderstandings on this eye joint, so it's better to stand by and watch. ”

He didn't doubt Song Yixiao's innocence at all, after all, when he first met six years ago, the girl was only eight years old, and she was obviously pushed down by him and injured her ankle, but because he was dressed well, she was stunned to compensate him in turn, and if he hadn't found out by himself, she would definitely not mention it - how could such a young person who was so forbearant and so compromised make trouble at the banquet of the county lord of Qingjiang?

Especially the one who was injured was the niece of the concubine!

"After the eldest sister finds out the truth, this girl should be fine." Jian Xubai thought like this, and didn't say anything.

It's just that he didn't say anything about his thoughts, and the previous groan fell in Ji Su's eyes, so it was inevitable that he would misunderstand, so he quietly picked up the guest booklet given by the county lord of Qingjiang, found Song Yixiao's name and secretly pinched it.

Thinking about the Queen Mother's private advice before coming, Ji Su thought for a moment, and said tentatively: "Her Royal Highness the Acting Princess, and Cui Guifei had a grudge in her early years, but this time Cui Guifei's niece relied on the princess of Zhun Wei, who His Majesty nodded, which is equivalent to helping the lord of Nanzhang, which is really strange!" I don't know what is going on on both sides behind the scenes? ”

Jian Xubai was very busy during this time, but it was really only the order of the Queen Mother and the pungency of the Qingjiang County Lord, so he had to go to the Zhanchun Pavilion. Rao is like this, most of what he will think about is political affairs.

Although Song Yixiao's incident made him distracted, it was just passed by - now Ji Su's words are right to his worries: "Back then, Your Majesty was afraid that the lord and the country would be suspicious because of his poor royal health, so he made the emperor's eldest son the prince and cultivated it with all his might." But God bless the lord, Your Majesty has become more and more healthy in recent years, and the princes such as King Wei and King Liang have gradually grown up, but the hearts of the people in the harem have begun to fluctuate......"

Especially the eldest princess of the country can be said to enjoy great honor in this dynasty, but she didn't take Cui Guifei in her eyes in her early years, which greatly offended the prospective queen mother - how can she not worry about being settled by the queen of autumn? As the person of the princess of the country, in the guilt of pleading and desperate, ten out of ten choose the latter!

Ji Sucai didn't care how worried Jian Xubai would be about the country and the people, he said with a smile: "That's it, why don't you go down, go through the back door to the screen, and listen to what the three young ladies say in front of the county lord of Qingjiang?" Although if you want to know, the county lord will tell you when he comes back, but if you pass on a word, it is not as accurate as listening to it in person. ”

Jian Xubai felt that coming to Zhanchun Pavilion was a pure waste of his time, and if he could easily find out some useful news, of course he would not refuse.

He lowered his head and saw that there was still half of the wine left, and at some point it fell into a peach blossom, which was floating in the amber liquor, charming and cute - he couldn't help but hook his lips and smile, cover his sleeves and raise his head, drink it all, chew the petals and swallow them, and then turned around and put down the jade cup: "Go!" ”
