Chapter 257: Confusing
When Jian Xubai heard this, he naturally accompanied his wife to go over, but when he arrived in the warm pavilion, he saw the princess of the acting country sitting on the throne, and the Jiang family was all except Jiang Muyao.
These people were all expressionless, which made the atmosphere in the warm pavilion a little tense - there was Ji Mingfei kneeling alone, but he was kneeling, but his expression was very leisurely, seeing Jian Xubai helping Song Yixiao in, and even staring at the beads on Song Yixiao's sideburns a few times.
Seeing this scene, the husband and wife both frowned, and subconsciously thought of something!
After a while, after seeing the ceremony, the acting princess said "sit", and when they sat down, she asked bluntly: "Ah Xu, you brought your daughter-in-law just in time - it is said that when she left the table to sober up today, she bumped into the girl of the Jiang family, and the King of Wei and the Marquis of Boling were also present at that time, yes or no?" β
"Back to my aunt's words, at that time, I was greedy for the scenery in my aunt's garden, and when I went to the rockery in the garden, I heard His Royal Highness the King of Wei and the Marquis of Boling talking behind the rockery." Song Yi pursed his lips with a smile, and said lightly, "Speaking of which, that rockery is really chic, if it weren't for the fear of disturbing the conversation between His Royal Highness the King of Wei and the Marquis of Boling, I plan to climb up and take a look!" Later, I realized that Sister Jiang was one step ahead, but she was in a high place, and no one below could see it, if she hadn't called me to return the table, I would only have walked around the female relatives who went to the banquet today! β
What she said was a euphemistic hint, first, Jiang Muyao appeared on the rockery, purely attracted by the scenery, and there was no ulterior reason; Second, King Wei and Yuan Xuepei may not know that Jiang Muyao is on the rockery, so it is just a coincidence that the three of them met together; Third, Jiang Muyao later called her to return to the table - this sentence created an illusion that Jiang Muyao stumbled upon a man nearby when she was enjoying the scenery and was eager to avoid suspicion.
After all, even King Wei heard that Jiang Muyao wanted to marry Yuan Xuepei, so it can be seen that this matter has more or less revealed some rumors, so Jiang Yuan and Yuan appeared in a place with few people at the same time, whether it is coincidental or not, it is difficult not to be discussed.
Song Yixiao said this, deliberately covering up for Jiang Muyao.
The Jiang family knew it in their hearts, and they all cast grateful eyes on her when they heard the words.
It's just that the acting princess didn't want this matter to be lightly exposed, and said with a chuckle: "You said that rockery?" There are people hidden above, and I really can't see it underneath, just now King Wei also told me that when the girl of the Jiang family spoke out, he was also startled! Co-authored that you will also be behind the rockery? So, you heard all their arguments? β
Speaking of this, he didn't wait for Song Yixiao to answer, turned to the Jiang family, and said, "It's not right to say that this matter is also the king of Wei, since he married my daughter, he shouldn't bother your girl anymore!" It's just that there have been some rumors on the mountain lately, and I think you must know about it. King Wei has a childhood sweetheart with your girl, even if there is no fate, but there is also some brother and sister love! When I heard the news, I was impulsive, so I ran to confront the Marquis of Boling - but I was later scolded away by your girl. β
"Your Royal Highness, the little girl is rude to His Royal Highness the King of Wei, and we will discipline ourselves when we turn back. But today's matter, we have to have an explanation anyway! The Jiang family's faces sank when they heard this, and the first man in his fifties with a clear appearance sneered and said, "After all, our family respectfully came to congratulate you on your birthday, but a good girl was locked in a room with her nephew at the banquet!" Where is this where is my Jiang family?! β
When Jian Xubai and his wife heard this, they knew what to do, Ji Mingfei knelt underneath - co-authored, he and Jiang Muyao were locked in the house together!
It's just that although Ji Mingfei did such a wanton thing, his hobby is not a secret in the noble circle, this person often likes women who have masters, and he lacks interest in everyone who is at a young age: Jiang Muyao is in love with Yuan Xuepei, but Yuan Xuepei has always kept a distance from her, and secondly, she has not been out of the cabinet, so it doesn't belong to Ji Mingfei's interest!
The young couple didn't say anything, but they were suspicious of the acting princess.
The Jiang family obviously thought the same way, and the man showed a bit of ruthlessness when he spoke, stroking his short beard under his chin and sneering slightly, "We have also heard of the behavior of the eldest prince Ji, and the little girl obviously can't get into his eyes!" If this matter is said to be done by the eldest prince, even if the eldest prince recognizes it, we will not believe it! β
"I don't believe my nephew would do such a thing!" When the eldest princess heard this, she didn't have any embarrassment or weakness, she only nodded and said lightly, "That's why I want Ah Xu's daughter-in-law to talk back: After all, you also know that the room where the two children were locked was originally the place where Ming Fei rested. And the guards along the way can also prove that your girl walked over by herself! Your girl herself admitted this. β
Song Yixiao couldn't help but change color slightly when she heard the last sentence!
The acting princess noticed it and said with a smile: "Daughter-in-law, do you have something to say?" β
"Dare to ask my aunt, what the hell is going on?" Song Yi smiled and calmed down, and simply asked, "We only know that Sister Jiang has never returned to the table, but we don't know anything else!" Can you please tell me a little bit about the future? β
"To put it simply, not long after the girl of the Jiang family returned to the table with you, she received a message from someone in the name of Marquis Boling, asking her to meet in a certain room, and she went." The acting princess ignored the pale faces of a group of people from the Jiang family, and said slowly, "What I don't want to go to is Ming Fei's place, but Ming Fei was still resting in the house at that time!" But when she entered, the door to the house was locked! As a result, neither of them was able to show up at the end of the feast. β
He also said, "It was the Jiang family who came to the palace and said that their girl was missing-when the people in the palace were looking around, they found the lock on the door and ordered someone to cut it off, and then they were relieved." β
Song Yixiao thought to herself that this was indeed the case - but Jiang Muyao was really dizzy, today is the birthday of the Acting Princess, and the place where they are is the Acting Princess's courtyard, and who is Yuan Xuepei? is the political enemy of the acting princess, and there is still a bit of a grudge with the daughter and son-in-law of the acting princess!
If it weren't for the eldest princess's plan to celebrate her birthday this time, she invited almost all the people in the mountain, and he might not have gotten the invitation!
In this case, how could he rest assured that the subordinates here would pass on a message to him?
Such a simple truth, half an adult child can figure it out, but he deceived Jiang Muyao so much that he can't help but feel that this girl who has a heart to care about it, when it comes to her sweetheart, she can stay really good!
"Even if we don't teach our daughter strictly, the little girl plans to go to see the Marquis of Boling, but this is only a matter between our family and the Marquis of Boling's mansion!" After the Jiang family was silent for a while, they simply broke the jar and admitted that Jiang Muyao admired Yuan Xuepei, but this does not mean that they feel that they are at a loss and cannot continue to pursue it, "The problem now is that it is the eldest son Ji who is locked in the house with the little girl!" β
"Hongu knows what you think!" The acting princess took a sip of tea and said lightly, "You think this matter was done by this palace, right?" It's just that although Bengong doesn't dare to say that he is magnanimous, your girl didn't offend Bengong, and Bengong is guilty of pitting a junior on her birthday? Especially today, a royal brother has been here! β
This also makes sense, but the Jiang family is about to tear their faces with her, so they don't have any scruples to speak, and they get straight to the point: "Doesn't Your Highness have any thoughts about our family's recent letting the little girl go to the Marquis of Boling?" β
"The palace wants to keep the Marquis of Boling." The Acting Princess, who heard this, sneered, and said, "It's better to make it clearβbut he left with the excuse that his legs were long!" It shows that you don't have any thoughts about your girl! Let's ask him if such an attitude is clearly there, even if you indulge the girl in the Yuan family's summer villa all day long, can you do the Yuan Jiang family? β
said disdainfully, "What's more, today's matter, in the final analysis, is just your girl's reputation being cheated, but even if she marries Ming Fei in the future, it involves a major event in the future of the He clan, will you make such an important decision because of a girl who is usually loved?!" β
The Jiang family was silently said by her: Indeed, although today's incident made the Jiang family embarrassed and annoyed, in terms of actual losses, it was nothing more than Jiang Muyao herself.
And even if Jiang Muyao finally marries Ji Mingfei, it doesn't mean that the Jiang family will be on the side of King Wei - the Jiang family does love Jiang Muyao, but no matter how much she spoils her, in the end, a girl can't compare with the future of the whole clan!
After all, although King Wei was not born to Concubine Jiang Xian, he was sent to Concubine Xian as soon as he landed to raise him, and Concubine Xian herself had no son, so after so many years, she was no different from her own. Rao is like this, didn't the Jiang family help him?
This is not because Jiang Muyao was once let down by the King of Wei - people who can occupy a place in the court and teach their children generally well have their own knowledge. It is impossible to pull the entire family into the water because of a few children!
Therefore, it would be too stupid for the acting eldest princess to set up such a bureau in order to win over the Jiang family or prevent the Jiang family from falling to the East Palace.
But if the eldest princess of the country didn't do it for this purpose, with her identity, age, and seniority, how could she not pit Jiang Muyao!
Seeing the hesitation of the Jiang family, the acting princess put down the tea bowl for a long time, and said, "You all know what the imperial brother did for the East Palace before. This palace will not hide it from you: this palace is quite worried about King Wei these days, and it is to repeatedly teach Princess Wei not to be willful and nonsense - so that when Princess Liang mocked the palace in public before the banquet, Princess Wei went to reason with her, and she was defeated! If it was put aside, the palace didn't even pay attention to the concubine of the Cui family, let alone her daughter-in-law raised in the Zhuangzi?! β
The eldest princess sneered slightly, "Although this palace has always acted more flamboyantly, in the end, I also watched the imperial brother come over back then, how can I really not know the severity?" On this eyekeeping, even if the Wei Wang couple had some trouble with your girl earlier, how could this palace take the risk of provoking your Jiang family? β
She glanced at Jian Xubai and his wife, and snorted lightly, "Isn't this helping Donggong?!" β
ββBut there is truth in these words, the Jiang family was silent for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "So, according to His Highness's intentions, who is it that harmed my girl this time?!" β
