Chapter 30: The Concubine Makes Trouble

When Song Yixiao returned to the embroidery building, Yuan Xuecao had just gotten up, and when she saw her coming from outside, she naturally wanted to ask.

"Jin Xun couldn't sit still, I took her to the apricot blossom forest for a ride, who knew that Grandpa Jian arrived first and came back." Song Yixiao said lightly, but pinched off the part of the people in the pavilion, "I didn't sit much back and forth, but Lao Meiyan and Qing Ruobai were busy." ”

"What's not busy? You're so out-of-sight. Yuan Xuecao didn't have any city government, and she didn't doubt it when she heard it, and after a few words of disgust with her, she was led to other topics.

But that night, when Song Yixiao was served by Jinxun and bathed, Qingruo asked to see Yuan Xuecao through Mei Yan and said: "When Miss Song went to the apricot blossom forest today, Grandpa Jian asked the slaves and maids to avoid it, and talked to Miss Song alone. ”

"After Grandpa Jian left, the slave maid and Jin Xun went into the pavilion to serve, and saw that Miss Song's face was very ugly."

"On the way back, Miss Song was so distracted that she suddenly stopped!"

"The eldest lady once instructed the slaves and maids to respect Miss Song as much as you do, so the slaves and maids dare not hide this matter!"

Yuan Xuexu was taken aback: "What does this surname Jane mean?" Just scolded me at the beginning, I really didn't get angry. But what's wrong with Sister Song? ”

The eldest girl Meiping told Qingruo not to talk nonsense, and after letting her go down, she suggested: "Ask Miss Song later?" ”

"But she didn't tell me, would she feel embarrassed and didn't want me to know?" Yuan Xuexu hesitated, "Although I was scolded at the beginning, I was to blame, how many days did I feel embarrassed to meet people?" ”

Mei Ping reminded: "But Miss Song came to our house for you, and now she has been wronged, whether it is because of our family or not, you don't know it, since you know but don't keep quiet, she looked back and thought that Qingruo was also there at that time, and there was no reason not to tell you, I am afraid that there will be a gap!" ”

These words persuaded Yuan Xuexu, and when Song Yi laughed out of the bath, she sent the people who were waiting, and asked, "Did Grandpa Jian bully you today?" ”

"Sister, don't get me wrong, it was Grandpa Jane's kindness that told me something about my father's family." Song Yixiao was looking for an opportunity to leave the Hou Mansion, and when she heard this, her heart moved, and she showed a worried look, "I haven't been out for a few days, if it wasn't for my grandfather to tell me, I really don't know ......."

Speaking of this, he stopped and sighed slightly.

Yuan Xuexu asked with concern: "What happened?" Is it useful for me? ”

"It's not that I'm out with my sister, but it's my father, and I really can't say anything." Song Yi smiled and rubbed her handkerchief, putting on a worried look, "I can only go back and probe my mother's tone." ”

"Something important?" It's really hard to be a daughter and say that your father is not, Yuan Xuecao came to her mouth, "If you want to treat me as a sister, tell me", and immediately swallowed it back, "Do you want to worry, Ming'er will go back to Hengshan Wangfu to inquire with your aunt first?" After all, my aunt is in charge of the backyard of the palace, and her ears and eyes are smart! ”

Song Yixiao wants her words!

But his face was embarrassed: "But sister, your body ......"

"Am I not okay right now?" Yuan Xuecao hurriedly said, "You can go back with confidence!" ”

Song Yixiao hesitated for a while, and when she was about to help pack her luggage in person, she reluctantly nodded-in order to prevent Yuan Xuexu from turning back to inquire about Jian Xubai and exposing the lie, she specially confessed before leaving the Marquis of Boling's mansion: "I promised Grandpa Jian that he would not tell anyone what he told me." Sister, don't say that I have a good time with you! Otherwise, I won't be able to see him in the future! ”

Seeing that Yuan Xuecao solemnly said that she would not reveal anything to Jian Xubai, Song Yixiao boarded the carriage with confidence.

- Although this girl is a little weaker and simpler, her character can still be trusted.

"It's a escape!" Returning to the Hengshan Palace, Song Yixiao really breathed a sigh of relief, but then he refreshed his spirits and prepared to meet the whirlpool of the dispute between the sons of the world.

Who would have thought that she had just come to Wei Mengying, and before the mother and daughter had time to wave away their subordinates and say something considerate, the maid Qiaoqin came in and said, "The four county lords ask to see!" ”

Although Wei Mengying relied on a son and a daughter to sit firmly on the throne of Princess Hengshan, the concubine was still there, and King Hengshan favored his stepwife but not his stepfather, so she didn't dare to be mean to the non-biological heirs of the palace.

Especially the lord of the four counties, Lu Ko'er, is the original partner, she is pretty and lively, and she has always been favored, and Wei Mengying naturally has to be very considerate to her.

Now that he heard that she was coming, he didn't care about interrogating his own daughter, so he hurriedly ordered: "Come in quickly!" ”

After a while, Lu Ko'er in the purple skirt came to the hall to salute, Wei Mengying helped her weakly, and said angrily: "You kid, what are you still restrained by your family?" ”

Her tone was affectionate, but Lu Ko'er's attitude was a little lukewarm, and after getting up, she didn't pay attention to Wei Mengying's words to ask people to take a seat, and only said: "Mother, I have a few embroidery skills that are not good, among the female students, Miss Song's embroidery skills are the most skillful, I don't know if you can invite her to sit in the 'Shaoyin Garden' where I live, so as to teach me a few hands?" ”

Wei Mengying couldn't hear that the so-called asking for embroidery skills was just a disguise, but Lu Qian'er had something else to find Song Yixiao, but in the past six years, although the two girls were classmates, they had only a handful of contacts, and they rarely even went out and walked together, and there was no conflict between Mingli, but it was definitely not intimate.

Now that she suddenly wants to invite Song Yixiao to her place, what do you want to do?

Wei Mengying glanced at her daughter suspiciously, but saw that Song Yixiao was also at a loss, and her heart became more and more puzzled, but with Lu Qian'er's identity, it was difficult to refuse such a fact, so she still nodded: "You are as old as you are, you should move around often, and you can also join in the fun when you are out of the cabinet in the future." ”

When she said this, Song Yixiao could only respond.

just followed Lu Ko'er to Shaoyin Court, but did not let people bring female red up, but waved everyone away, and sent the big girl Guizhi to guard the door, and then smiled at Song Yi, who was full of doubts: "You don't have to be afraid, although I don't like you very much, but I won't hurt you for eating and drinking in the palace for so many years." ”

With short hands and soft mouths, Song Yixiao has indeed been supported by the Hengshan Palace's brocade clothes and jade food in the past six years, and now although Lu Qian'er does not speak well, she is not easy to refute, and asks sullenly: "Then the county lord brought me over, what did you order?" ”

"I want you to help me bring a letter to Cousin Jian next time I go to see Cousin Yuan, how about it?" Lu Ko'er stared at her and said slowly, "With your relationship with Cousin Yuan, such a thing won't be impossible, right?" ”

Song Yixiao really wanted to hold her forehead and sigh - she was praying that Jian Xubai would never remember herself, especially not to doubt that she had seen a scene that she shouldn't have seen, but now Lu Ko'er asked her to help send a letter to Jian Xubai, what is this called?

"I can do this, but I dare not do it." Song Yi smiled and thought for a moment, and flatly refused, "The county lord also said that I am a parasitic fence in the palace." I really can't do this to help you teach each other privately. Otherwise, if it spreads, everyone will say that I will take revenge. ”

Lu Ko'er didn't have a seizure when she heard this, but showed a triumphant smile: "Since you don't dare to deliver the message for me, it's always okay to call me when the Yuan family invites you over next time, right?" After all, I'm also their brother and sister's cousin, even if I am an uninvited guest, I won't be turned away, will I? ”

Song Yi smiled: "...... "How can you refuse this?!"

It's just that although she was forced to promise that when the Yuan family invited her to come over again, she would definitely talk to Lu Ko'er, but after Song Yixiao returned to Hanxia Xiaozhu, she immediately instructed Zhao's mother to arrange someone to go to the Boling Marquis Mansion to deliver a message, and tell Yuan Xuecao Lu Ko'er's calculations: "...... My young lady said that this matter involves the name of the county lord, and it must not be spread outside. It's just that the county lord wants to borrow the Hou Mansion to make things happen, and the young lady can't stop it, so she can only send a slave and maid to remind her while agreeing! ”

Yuan Xuecao has been extremely well protected by her brother since she was a child, and it is natural for her to get used to it, that is, she will report everything to Yuan Xuepei and let her brother speak to deal with it - and this will Yuan Xuepei and Jian Xubai are very busy with the affairs of the dynasty, how can they bother to care about their children's affection?

He only listened to a rough idea, and then told his sister bluntly: "Don't send someone to invite Miss Song during this time, and I'll talk about it when I'm empty!" ”

When these words were transmitted back to Hanxia Xiaozhu, Song Yi smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

But then Qiaoqin invited Wei Mengying to her, only to say that she wanted to persuade herself to hook again. With Yuan Xuepei, Song Yixiao brewed her emotions and prepared to pass the test again, who expected that after meeting, Wei Mengying told her with a not very good-looking face: "The concubine said that she wanted to see you, I don't know what it is." ”

Although Song Yixiao has lived in the Hengshan Palace, she has only been to the concubine's courtyard once so far - that is, on the day she entered the mansion, it was still stained with the light of Yuan Xuepei's brothers and sisters who came to visit on the same day.

After that, although the concubine didn't deliberately target her, she didn't pay attention to her anymore, and Quan Dang didn't know that there was such a person in the palace.

Now that she was suddenly called, Song Yixiao's mother and daughter were inevitably caught off guard!

Especially after the concubine came to salute, she didn't get permission to get up for a long time - after a while, the legs of the mother and daughter were numb and the waist was sore, but the concubine didn't seem to see it, just drinking tea for a long time, and occasionally glanced at them with a cold gaze.

Holding her breath, Wei Mengying endured it again and again, but in the end, she still stood up with the support of a son and a daughter, and asked angrily: "What does this mean by mother, concubine?" ”

"You still have the face to ask me?" The concubine slowly put down the tea bowl, threw a cold glance at her, and opened her mouth to scold, "How did you teach your own daughter?!" The girl who was just talking about her marriage, not to mention that she was strictly protected to show her wealth and attention, but let her go to the Marquis of Boling Mansion alone! Also stay for a few days! Don't tell me you don't know what the situation is in the Marquis of Boling's Mansion now! Although Xue Pei, who is the master, has lost his legs, he is also an unmarried man who is only young and crowned after all! Especially Yan Guogong thought about the love of the robe, but he ran over there every day! ”

"Even if there is an old lady in the Yuan family, you don't know the relationship between the Tu family and Xue Pei? Xue Pei invited guests to the door, not to mention wanting her to help cover up, it would be good if she didn't fall into the well! Who in the imperial capital doesn't know that a young man is in charge of the house right now?! Sister Kou'er is still a serious relative of the Yuan family's brothers and sisters, I am not allowed to visit in person, you are good, you actually sent your daughter over! ”

"This is simply deliberately embarrassing the face of our Hengshan Palace!"

The concubine smashed the tea bowl in front of Wei Mengying and was still angry, got up from her seat herself, walked down and pointed at her nose and scolded, "Your daughter has been raised in the palace for six years, and the palace has never shortened her to eat and drink, and even let her enter the women's school to be taught with the Kou'er sisters, and the treatment is not as good as that of the serious clan lord, and she is always treated as a daughter-I don't ask her to repay her kindness in the future, and the right is to accumulate virtue for her children and grandchildren!" The result? You unassuming thing! What about my mother, just like this to my own daughter?! ”

Wei Mengying was scolded speechless!

Song Yixiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and thought: "It seems that the concubine also saw my mother's intention to let me go to the Boling Marquis Mansion, with this speaker, then my mother will force me to know Yuan Xuepei's cold and hot again, and I have a reason to continue to refuse!" ”

Who wanted the concubine to scold Wei Mengying, and then said: "I allow your daughter to be raised like an eldest lady in the palace, not to pit my own granddaughter!" You are not strict with your daughter, so that she has fallen into criticism, and it has already affected the Ko'er and themβ€”she must not stay in the palace anymore, and I will give you two ways: either send her back to the Song family immediately; Or marry her off immediately!! ”

Song Yi, who was secretly happy, smiled: "......!!!!! ”
