It is said that two years ago, Xue Xiang handed over Xue Fangmi, the sister-in-law, to Mrs. Sun, and did not allow her biological mother Nan to interfere. Why did Mrs. Sun actually help you speak today? After changing the corner and sending the maid to watch nearby, Xin Fubing asked in surprise, "Even if she doesn't like this sister-in-law, isn't she afraid of turning around and upsetting Xue Xiang with her arms turned outward on her face?" After all, Xue Fangmi didn't say anything excessive. ”

Qiu Yulan smiled: "But what I said is not very excessive, why is Xue Fangmi angry all of a sudden?" This master is really stingy, but she is also very good at pretending, don't you think she just came to me to pinch it? ”

Xin Fubing did not live up to the quasi-princess-style teachings of these days, and she understood as soon as her mind turned: "Their sisters-in-law are all deliberate? Why? Is it because of your previous appointment by Cousin Ruan? Is this a deliberate excuse to fight with you, so as to clear the Xue family? ”

"I think so, why can I get out and talk to you as soon as I see you coming?" Qiu Yulan narrowed her eyes, "It's not that Princess Yan Tang Xinqiong provoked in the past, in front of the eldest aunt and sister-in-law, let me remind my cousin to take office in Shazhou, don't learn from the Dou family!" Then my grandmother agreed that I would come to you and leave Tang Xinqiong there! ”

Xin Fubing smiled and said, "Tang Xinqiong, why is she so old? When I was in the summer before, I stayed in the palace, and I heard that this Princess Yan had no idea, but she loved to take other people's ideas to invite credit! Princess Zhou Gu Qianna took advantage of this, and pit her once in three days, each time Tang Xinqiong contributed, and in the end, Gu Qianna picked peaches! I don't even know how Vice Minister Tang and Princess Changping taught her? Fortunately, it is the granddaughter of the Empress Dowager Gu, although she always suffers losses and makes jokes, the Empress Dowager still spoils her. ”

Qiu Yulan smiled when she heard this: "It's always a joke, don't you think that the reason why Empress Dowager Gu spoils her is actually more because of this, rather than her identity as a granddaughter?" ”

"Really?" Xin Fubing was stunned for a while, and then said, "Empress Dowager Gu really likes naïve juniors. ”

Naivety was nothing more than a euphemism, and what she really wanted to say was: good control.

Qiu Yulan was about to answer, Xin Fubing suddenly grabbed her hand and said softly: "Thank you, cousin-in-law!" In that case......" After a pause, he continued, "I know that not everyone who sees it will mention me! ”

"......" Qiu Yulan was stunned for a while, and then realized that this cousin had too much brain supplement-Originally, Qiu Yulan said that she suspected that Tang Xinqiong was actually pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and the purpose was just to let Xin Fubing not underestimate this future second sister-in-law because Tang Xinqiong was always calculated by Gu Qianna, what if she was cheated in the future?

But apparently, Xin Fubing understood that Qiu Lulan was reminding her that whether it was Empress Dowager Gu or Empress Jiang, what was needed was a younger generation who could be controlled. is too smart and capable, like Gu Graceful, even if she becomes the candidate for the quasi-crown princess of the Queen Mother Party as she wishes, she may end up being crossed by the river and the bridge demolished in the future!

"How did Empress Jiang and the female officials she sent to Xin Mansion brainwash this child?" Qiu Yulan looked at Xin Fubing's expression of "Don't say it, I understand", the corners of her mouth twitched, "You can think of anything towards conspiracy and calculation...... This royal daughter-in-law is really not made by people! ”

She knew that since Xin Fubing had even said the words of thanks, it was useless to explain, but it was easy to stalemate - fortunately, this cousin didn't go around a few more times, thinking that she was here to test her loyalty to the queen - thinking that Queen Jiang's personality was not very reliable, Xin Fubing would be under her hands in the future, and it would be good to have multiple hearts, so she acquiesced to this cousin's understanding and diverted the topic: "I thought that when I entered the wax moon, I was preparing for the New Year wholeheartedly." But this year, it's really eventful, the Tao family, the Duan family, and the Dou family all fell in the last month! At today's feast, I don't know if there will be any turmoil? ”

Xin Fubing hadn't recovered from the plot of the brain supplement, his face was slightly pale, and he said: "Originally, since the fourth aunt also began to inquire about politics, which banquet didn't pinch it?" But this year must be particularly turbulent - by the way, will the eldest aunt and eldest cousin embarrass you because of Tang Xinqiong's provocation? Why don't I go and beg the second aunt later, let you sit with me and stay away from them! The second aunt should give me this face. ”

After all, she is a prospective daughter-in-law personally selected by Queen Jiang, and for such a trivial matter, Mrs. Tao will inevitably be accurate.

"Probably not." Qiu Yulan shook her head, "It's impossible for the two of them not to even see such a superficial provocation!" And you didn't see what they look like now, it's really not easy to hold on to entering the palace. I thought maybe I wanted to take this opportunity to beg the fourth aunt to try to let go of those people in the Dou family who were less than sixteen years old after the banquet was lively? How can this be difficult to get along with me? ”

Having said that, Qiu Yulan's wariness of the big house in her heart has not diminished - she knows that it is her husband who has made the Dou family so miserable......

Xin Fubing sighed: "Alas, too! Now that I have been married, if you get too close to me, it will be easier for you to attract the eyes of some people! It's a ...... day."

"This brain is making up for it, and it's really endless!" Qiu Yulan cried and laughed and thought, "Have you forgotten that you are far from being the master of the house?" What really makes us jealous is the queen's attitude! ”

But when he said this, even if he was a good friend, it hurt Xin Fubing's self-esteem too much, so Qiu Yulan acquiesced again and said: "That is, when the banquet is held, it is not convenient to speak at that time." After three rounds of drinking, you can move around at will, and it's okay for us to sit together again, who doesn't know that the two of us and Cousin Zhuang have always been close? It's strange if you suddenly become estranged! ”

Xin Fubing naturally took this as a comfort—but Qiu Yulan's mention of Zhuang Man made her laugh: "It's rare that Man'er is embarrassed to meet people!" ”

…… The reason why Zhuang Man didn't come to the banquet this year is very simple: the news that she was nominated for Princess Lu before spread, and she was defeated. It would be very embarrassing to meet Princess Lu Tao Yibin like this, and it would be even more embarrassing to be pointed at and discussed, so the dealer simply let her stay at home.

Anyway, Zhuang Man didn't have a seal on his body, he was not a person who had to enter the palace, Queen Jiang didn't ask, and the dealer didn't have to make excuses for her.

But Qiu Yulan felt: "It's embarrassing to see people...... It should be the dealer's opinion, right? I think Man'er wants to be here, who dares to make fun of her about King Lu's choice of concubine, will only be boring! "Zhuang Man's discipline is on the same level as her, how can she be so pointed at that she can't get off the stage? This guy has always been the best at making others unable to get off the stage, okay?

Even a tricky character like Princess Qi Jiang Qiyun has to suffer when she encounters a master, where would she be afraid to come to the banquet? It can be seen that the festival of the Zhuang family is still very normal - the normal festival environment grows Zhuang vines, which obviously proves that the total amount of festival is not high because it is innate.

So it's providential to say that your temperament is not high!

Xin Fubing also felt very right when she heard it: "Yes, but Man'er doesn't have to worry about us like this, it is said that the reason why Miss Shi didn't come tonight is that she is really sick." ”

"Why can't you think about it?" Qiu Yulan sighed, "I hope the sixth sister-in-law won't be angry with me!" ”

"By the way, Princess Zhun Wei, is your cousin Wang here? I haven't seen her yet, take me to see it? Xin Fubing remembered it and asked, "I heard that it is also Mr. Shao's subordinate?" Then we are all classmates, tell me to recognize it, and we will all pass the door in the future, so that we can support each other-" The voice was lowered, "Cousin Fifteen, I just beg her not to drag me down, I can only count on your cousin Wang!" ”

Qiu Yulan was reminded and said, "It's been so busy for the past two days, I forgot to ask!" She knew that Xin Fubing actually meant that she had good intentions when she said this, with Wang's shallow city and family background, how much could she help Xin Fubing as Princess Wei? But it was Xin Fubing who thought about his face, and planned to take care of Wang Qingqian!

And Wang Qingqian really needs such kindness, Qiu Yulan naturally won't refuse, "I don't know where she will be arranged, go and find it?" ”

"Let's go!" Xin Fubing smiled and took her arm.

But the two went to the family members of the Wupin official to look around, although they found Lian Jianhai's wife Fang, but they were told that Wang Qingqian's mother and daughter did not come, in front of Xin Fubing, Fang's smiled and said: "We are a small family, and we are really a little in a hurry. The niece is filial, serves tea in the morning and evening, shushs the cold and asks for warmth, and has a cough if she is not careful. Under the big festival, I really didn't dare to let her come, so as not to sweep away your interest. ”

However, Qiu Yulan and Xin Fubing tried a few words, and they got the truth out from Fang's mouth - Wang Qingqian had been raised by girls from well-off families before, and suddenly became a quasi-princess, whether it was talking about temperament, or dresses and jewelry, all had to be reshaped and redone, so it was too late at all! Afraid that she would lose her honor and lose points on this grand occasion, the Lian family discussed it, and felt that since she was not sure that she would come over tonight to get the approval of the nobles, it was better to show up later, and maybe she could perform better at that time.

This is also human nature, Qiu Lulan and Xin Fubing said some words of comfort to Fang's family, and then said goodbye with a smile.

Leaving the seat area of the family members of the five officials, Qiu Yulan sighed: "It's a good thing that Cousin Wang didn't come today, and there will definitely be no good banquet today!" ”

Xin Fubing smiled: "So many people in the government and the opposition are not convinced, why can she become Princess Wei?" I said it was as it should be: good fate! ”

Qiu Lulan has always been a little hesitant about Wang Qingqian being hired by King Wei, after all, although Wang Qingqian was born in a small family and grew up in his uncle's family, his temper is actually more willful than many girls who grew up in his own family. The main generation of the Lian family has no daughters, but they raised their nieces as daughters, and they are more favored than Lian Ding and their brothers.

After such a willful and naïve cousin became a princess, it is really hard to say whether Miao Zhaoyi and King Wei can be satisfied.

But now Xin Fubing's words made her eyebrows stretch: "Yes, blessing is the most important!" ”

Blessed don't be busy!

The two of them didn't have anything serious to say next, so they walked outside the hall and leaned on the railing while watching the falling snow and talk about trivial topics at random - at this time, there was no need for the maids to look at it and not let people eavesdrop, and the maids also came up to talk and laugh, and by chance, Qiu Yulan suddenly noticed that the flowers and trees behind him were swaying in the wind and snow, and there seemed to be some other movements?

When she looked back, she happened to fall into the shadows under the flower tree, and at the corner not far from the corridor, a corner of the dark robe was raised at the same time, and the person behind the corner had quickly left.

"What's that?" Qiu Yulan felt a little strange, looked at the place where the crystal fell, and was noticed by Su He, so he asked with a smile: "Young lady, what are you looking at?" ”

"Is there something over there?" At this time, it was night, and there were lights hanging under the porch, illuminating the ice and snow world outside. She whispered to the others, especially Xin Fubing, who was standing across from her.

It's just that Xin Fubing looked at it casually and said with a smile: "The light reflects the ice and snow, right?" It looks like a jewel! ”

Qiu Yulan was about to say that he heard the sound when he turned around and saw someone leaving from the corner, but a small waiter came over: "Two, the banquet is about to start, if there is nothing important, look forward to the table and prepare to welcome it!" ”

"Let's get in!" Hearing this, the two of them thanked the little waiter and entered the hall with their dresses.

…… After the drive, Qiu Yulan was still thinking about the next scene in the corridor, but soon she was not in the mood - the procedure before the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet passed, the sound of silk and bamboo replaced the sound of Zhong Qi, the scene of singing and dancing, and the dishes of the banquet also seemed to be served into each table, so that the atmosphere was just lively, and someone from the Queen Mother's Party stood up and proposed to reward Jiang Yashuang: "The thief is ambushed, thanks to Jiang Hanlin's righteous extermination of relatives, the courtier thinks that it is necessary to be sealed, let alone rewarded!" ”

Before the words fell, the sound of silk and bamboo was messy for a few beats, and then they had to hurriedly vaguely pass, clanging, and the sound of cups and plates falling and shattering - it was the daughter of the Dou family, including the Dou family and Xiao Dou, who were all pale when they heard the words!

Then, the resentful gaze gathered together on the figure not far behind the expressionless Duke of Qin Guo!

"Nineteen You !!" Although the women of the Dou family were so angry that they wanted to step forward and tear Jiang Yashuang, but because of the power of the Jiang family, the Dou family had been convicted, and they didn't dare to be presumptuous. ()
