Chapter Seventy-Two: The Marriage Gift

Su Guifei came in, Anping Hou Lin Zhuyin hurriedly got up and saluted, Su Guifei glanced at him: "Hou Ye hasn't entered the palace for a long time." ziyouge”

"Isn't it, this old fellow, who takes Mrs. Hou out all day long, and now if it weren't for his kid to marry, I guess he wouldn't have come back to see me." The emperor smiled and beckoned Su Guifei to sit down on the warm couch next to her, and Su Guifei saw the chessboard in front of her at a glance: "The emperor has won again?" ”

The emperor glanced at Lin Zhuyin, who was standing respectfully on the side and smiled gently, and shook his head with a smile: "Play chess with me, he has never won." Not only did I never win in chess, but I never won anything, and I was always in second place. ”

"It takes some skills to always be second." Su Guifei smiled lightly.

Lin Zhu smiled silently, and the emperor glanced at him, before turning his head to look at Su Guifei: "Concubine Ai is also coming to ask about the big girl of the Chu family?" ”

Su Guifei smiled faintly: "The concubine didn't know that the eldest lady of the Chu Mansion was the side concubine of Yi'er who came to the palace to tell me before, saying that this eldest lady was virtuous and dignified, but she was delayed on the mountain for a few years, poetry, calligraphy and painting, and female red etiquette are still a little lacking. ”

"That's how it is." The emperor glanced at Lin Zhuyin strangely, since this girl is so unbearable, just a virtuous and dignified, how could he ask him to enter the palace in person to ask for marriage?

"Hmm." Su Guifei bowed: "I'll ask, Fan'er also said that she wants a companion, and the Eighth Prince has always only had one side concubine, so the concubine wants to ask Your Majesty, can this woman enter the Eighth Prince's Mansion?" ”

"Side concubine?" The emperor smiled clearly: "The eldest daughter of the Chu family is a side concubine, I don't know if Prime Minister Chu can agree." ”

"This concubine will ask people to ask, if they agree"

"Guifei Niangniang, my kid is also worried about the eldest lady of the Chu family, can't you let the minister go back and be looked down upon by his son, saying that a girl can't ask to marry." Lin Zhuyin said busily.

Concubine Su chuckled: "I remember that the Hou family's family has always had a tradition of marrying only one wife, and this is the plan to welcome the eldest lady of the Chu family back to be a wife?" ”

Although Concubine Su Guifei said that Chu Xi was useless, Marquis Lin only smiled gently: "Qingyu likes it, what can I do as a father, be mediocre and mediocre." ”

"If you are a wife. Prime Minister Chu is afraid that he has nothing to say. The emperor said with a smile, the Chu family is now all around, and they want to participate in the competition for the throne, and now they have brought in the Anping Marquis Mansion with only one daughter, which is really powerful.

"Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince's Mansion" Su Guifei said softly, but the emperor only waved his hand lightly: "The princess of the Hou Mansion and the side concubine of the Eighth Prince's Mansion, how do you say the girl of the Chu family will choose?" ”

Concubine Su Guifei didn't say more, a concubine naturally wanted to be a wife, but she was not favored, and she had no family to rely on, so it was impossible for her to become the concubine of the Eighth Prince.

The emperor chuckled, got down from the warm couch, and looked at Lin Zhuyin: "Then you promised to let your kid enter the court?" ”

"I'm afraid that he won't be able to do anything, so the emperor will arrange an errand for him with less work and more time in front of the old minister." Marquis Lin said with a smile.

The Emperor laughed out loud: "You think beautifully. ”

"Someone, the purpose." The Emperor said to the bystanders.

The eunuch standing immediately recruited someone to prepare the holy decree, and after handing it over to the emperor for inspection, he just waited for the emperor to press down the jade seal.

Before the "father" jade seal was pressed, Zhao Xuanyi had already arrived.

The emperor's eyes were slightly cold, and what he was most taboo about was that the princes were addicted to beauty and money, and several princes who wanted to compete for the throne naturally began to control themselves, and the Eighth Prince's Mansion only married one side of the concubine and then had no concubines.

"The eighth is here." The emperor put the jade seal aside and looked at him with a meaningful smile: "Didn't you also come to ask about the eldest lady of the Chu family?" The emperor already had a slight chill in his words.

Zhao Xuanyi's face was slightly gloomy, and he stepped forward to salute: "Return to my father, son."

"Yi'er, your father has just married Miss Chu and Lin Shizi, don't congratulate Marquis Lin." Su Guifei said with a smile.

The emperor's expression was slightly cold, and he snorted with a smile: "You are a dutiful mother." With that, he picked up the jade seal on the side and pressed it down on the bright yellow holy decree.

Zhao Xuanyi stood on one side, looked at the holy decree, and didn't say more, only stood on one side with a complicated expression, looking at Marquis Lin and thanking Lord Longen with a smile.

"Okay, I'm tired, you all stand down." The emperor didn't bother to look at everyone anymore, so he raised his hand and took the hand of the great eunuch and slowly went inside, coughing from time to time.

"Congratulations to Master Hou." Su Guifei walked over and said with a smile.

Lin Zhuyin smiled: "Thank you Niangniang for not insisting on asking that girl over, otherwise my unfilial son is afraid that he will find an excuse to hide in the mountains again." ”

Su Guifei looked at Lin Zhuyin and chuckled, and Lin Zhuyin said goodbye and left.

"Mother" Zhao Xuanyi's face was a little heavy, since the mother concubine can fight for it, why not fight for it?

"Is Fan'er here?" Concubine Su interrupted him.

Zhao Xuanyi nodded: "In your palace." ”

"Then you will also go back to the palace with me, the mother concubine has not talked to you for a long time." With that, he walked away.

Zhao Xuanyi thought that Chu Ji had already married Lin Qingyu, and his face was as dark as iron.

Jiang Fan was waiting for her to come over in Concubine Su's palace, waiting for the palace maid to remind her, she got up with a smile, but saw Concubine Su's face cold, and Zhao Xuanyi, who followed behind, also had a bad face.

"Mother." Jiang Fan saluted.

Concubine Su glanced at her and bowed slightly: "Can the veins in your stomach be checked by the imperial doctor?" ”

"Hmm." Jiang Fan's face was slightly pale.

"Is it a boy?" Su Guifei's tone was a little colder, no matter what, she must not let her first son climb out before the concubine has even started, otherwise who is willing to marry her daughter, even if she is willing, I am afraid that the seizure of the throne in the future will be even more fierce than now. Su Guifei thought long-term, looking at Jiang Fan's pale face, her expression became more and more unsightly: "You know what to do." ”

Jiang Fan knelt directly on the ground: "Mother, this is also your first grandson." ”

"He couldn't have come at the right time." Seeing her like this, Concubine Su's expression relaxed a little, but she was still very firm in her thoughts.

Zhao Xuanyi also rushed in at this moment, and when he saw such a scene, his face darkened: "What are you doing kneeling with a child." ”

Jiang Fan's heart warmed slightly: "Master"

"It's nothing, I just said it in a heavier tone, and Fan'er thought I was scolding her." Su Guifei said, never mentioning that she couldn't keep this child. Although Zhao Xuanyi acted aggressively, he was a person who valued love and righteousness in his heart, and if he knew that this child could not be kept, he would inevitably have an accident.

Zhao Xuanyi saw that there was nothing wrong, so he asked someone to help Jiang Fan up, and then looked at Su Guifei: "Mother, isn't my son asking you to delay the marriage of Miss Chu Family?" ”

Su Guifei was a little annoyed: "You really like that woman?" Did you know that such a crush on a woman is the most dangerous? ”

Zhao Xuanyi frowned: "My son wants to use her to contain Lin Qingyu." ”

Su Guifei chuckled: "You were born to me, don't think I don't know what you're thinking, the more you like this woman, the more I can't let you marry her." Now that she is married, don't think about it anymore and spend some energy on business. I heard that Chu Bingsong's son committed an accident, he has always wanted to step on two boats, you go and ask him what he means about this matter, if he can't assist you wholeheartedly, then it's not bad to take this opportunity to beat him hard. Su Guifei sat on the warm couch, holding her forehead lazily with her hands, and her eyebrows were tired.

Zhao Xuanyi responded: "But the nephew of Chu Mansion, Li Xiao, is a rare talent, and he also handed a letter of recommendation to the Eighth Prince, and the son promised him that as long as he can win this spring, he will arrange him to be like the Hanlin Academy." ”

"Is it credible? Aren't the people of Chu Mansion all the same raccoon dogs? Su Guifei said.

"Li Xiao is full of poetry and books, strong acceptance, flexible thinking, and integrity, such a person can be loved by his father the most, he has been living in Jiangnan before. I only returned to the capital in the past few days and lived in Chu Mansion for the time being. Zhao Xuanyi said.

After hearing this, Su Guifei didn't think much about it: "In this case, if you ask someone to check it again, if you are sure that it can be used, then you will remind him not to get involved in the affairs of Chu Mansion." ”

"Erchen understands." Zhao Xuanyi looked at Concubine Su who closed her eyes and didn't want to say more, saluted and prepared to leave.

Jiang Fan also got up and wanted to leave with him, but he heard Su Guifei say, "Fan'er stayed to talk to me." ”

"Master" Jiang Fan looked at Zhao Xuanyi pleadingly, Zhao Xuanyi frowned slightly, Su Guifei raised her eyes, and looked at Jiang Fan's eyes with dissatisfaction: "Fan'er, don't you want to stay with your mother to relieve your boredom?" ”

"Fan'er"

"She has something important to do when she goes back, let's take her into the palace later." Zhao Xuanyi turned around and stretched out a hand towards Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan's eyes were slightly wet, and he hurriedly handed over his hand, and when he felt the warmth of Zhao Xuanyi's palm, his heart jumped quickly.

Su Guifei looked at Jiang Fan, who left with Zhao Xuanyi, and frowned slightly: "Go and let Fan'er's mother come into the palace to see me." "The child in Jiang Fan's belly, if it is a daughter, it would be fine, but the male fetus must not be kept.

After leaving the palace and getting into the carriage, Jiang Fancai blushed slightly and looked at Zhao Xuanyi: "Thank you, Eighth Master." ”

Zhao Xuanyi seemed to come back to his senses at this time, glanced at Jiang Fan's hand in his hand, his face was slightly gloomy, and he let go and said no more.

Jiang Fan looked at Zhao Xuanyi, who threw his hand away, looked at his knife-like facial features, and the tip of his nose was slightly sour: "Is you thinking about the marriage of Miss Chu Family?" ”

"You don't have to worry about my business, and you are not allowed to interfere anymore." Zhao Xuanyi said coldly.

Jiang Fan felt bitter in his heart, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Fan'er doesn't dare to touch Miss Chu again." Moreover, master, if the eldest lady of the Chu family takes the initiative to withdraw from this marriage, even the emperor can't help it, isn't it? ”

Zhao Xuanyi was overjoyed, but looked at Jiang Fan suspiciously: "What do you want to do?" ”

Jiang Fan smiled bitterly: "Master, the concubine just wants to help you, and it won't hurt Miss Chu, don't worry, and even if the concubine goes to see Miss Chu, she won't say what you mean." ”

Zhao Xuanyi looked at her, thought for a long time, and finally said 'um', but his expression was strange, as if he was smiling and forcibly endured, and the carriage was halfway gone, and Zhao Xuanyi got out of the car and left. As soon as he left, Jiang Fancai cried quietly, he thought that Zhao Xuanyi would not like any woman in his life, she thought that she was already unique in his heart, but in the end, he still fell in love with a woman who didn't love him at all.

Chu Mansion is still in chaos at this time, the old lady fainted and did not wake up, Brother Hong was poisoned and did not wake up, and Chu Qitai was thrown into prison for intentional homicide.

Chu Bingsong had been sleepless all night in the study, and a mother-in-law came outside to deliver a message, saying that Qin Xue wanted to see him.

"She still has the face to meet, none of the sons and daughters she taught are worry-free, and she still wants to harm my other son, this poisonous woman, poisonous woman!" Chu Bingsong still has the slightest admiration for Qin Xue in his heart now, and those likes when he was young have long been wiped out.

Looking at Chu Bingsong, who was furious, the mother-in-law hurriedly said: "Madame said that Young Master Hong was not harmed by her, and as for the eldest son, Madame said that she could ask the Dingguo Mansion for help." ”

"The Dingguo Mansion is also a lice now, how can it be possible to help me." Chu Bingsong didn't have a good airway.

The mother-in-law was also bitter: "Madame said, now the Bai family has no time to take care of the house, and it is Madame's own brother who is assisting Dingguo Gong to run the house." ”

Chu Bingsong naturally knew about Qin Fei's killing, but he didn't have a good impression of Qin Xun: "Can he really call the shots?" "He's been fooling around all the time, and now he's smart."

"Yes." The mother-in-law suddenly whispered: "Madame is outside, why don't you let Madame come in and tell you?" ”

Chu Bingsong thought about it, and now that the King of Xiaoyao and the eldest prince were closed, he had to raise his hand and let his mother-in-law bring Qin Xue in.

Qin Xue knew that Chu Bingsong's kindness had passed away, so she only choked up when she came in: "Master, now that spring is coming, I am willing to die even if I die." As long as Tai'er can be replaced, he will beg Grandpa Guo to invite a royal doctor to come back to see Brother Hong'er. ”

Seeing Qin Xue like this, Chu Bingsong frowned slightly, and asked someone to bring tea: "You talk carefully first, what to do." ”

Seeing that Chu Bingsong was relieved, Qin Xue breathed a sigh of relief, and told him how he carefully chose the pastries to give to Brother Hong, and said how deep his relationship with his brother Qin Xun was, Qin Xun would definitely help, Chu Bingsong had a bottom in his heart, and just when the two of them were relieved, a holy decree came from outside.

Chu Bingsong hurriedly called everyone in the palace to listen to the decree, and the Duke of Wei from the palace held the Ming Huang Holy Decree in his hand, and swept the people under his eyes, but he shook his head in his heart, the dignified Prime Minister's Mansion had fallen into such a situation today, and his face was full of bitterness, and he didn't know how this prime minister should be.

After thinking about it, he opened the holy decree: "Carry it by heaven." The emperor's edict said: I heard that Chu Xi, the daughter of the prime minister of Chu, is skillful and generous, gentle and generous, and has outstanding appearance. ”

Gonggong Wei had just finished reading this holy decree, not only Chu Bingsong and Qin Xue, but even Chu Xi herself was stunned. How could the emperor suddenly give marriage at this time, and give her to Lin Qingyu, didn't Lin Qingyu keep saying that he was about to get married, did he always allude to himself?

Thinking of this, Chu Xi's heart was complicated, and she didn't know what to feel.

"Which one is Miss Chu, come out to receive the order." Father-in-law Wei said, only then did he see a figure behind the crowd standing up with his head down, and stepped forward a few times to salute: "The courtier Chu Ji accepts the order." ”

When Chu Xi came closer, Gonggong Wei saw her appearance clearly, and couldn't help but be surprised, no wonder the Eighth Prince wanted her to be a side concubine. It turned out to be such a good-looking woman, and she couldn't help but have exquisite facial features, but her appearance was neither humble nor arrogant, and she looked no worse than the princess in the palace.

Chu Zhenzhen only pouted, she just gave a marriage to a son, she didn't mind, but she was a little jealous that it was the emperor's decree to give marriage.

Chu Xiuxiu hated her so much: "Lin Shizi is such a good person, why did he give it to her?" ”

Chu Dai'er knelt on one side and lowered her eyebrows without speaking, but the hand holding her sleeve was clenched tightly.

After Chu Bingsong sent away Father-in-law Wei, he looked at Chu Ji who was standing at the door, and said angrily: "Come to my study!" ”

Lu Tan was a little worried, but Chu Xi looked at his back indifferently as he left, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and he followed with steps. When she passed by Chu Dai'er's side, she was grabbed by Chu Dai'er's arm suddenly, and the force in her hand seemed to crush Chu Dai'er: "Congratulations, big sister." ”

Chu Xi looked at her with a smile on her face, and brushed her hand away as if casually: "Thank you." With that, he walked away, and the green sandalwood and green sprouts also hurriedly followed.

When he arrived in the study, Chu Bingsong shouted: "Kneel!" ”

Chu Ji saw him come again. chuckled: "Why is my father so angry?" ”

Chu Bingsong saw that she stood lightly without the slightest fear, and his face turned blue with anger: "Why, before you got married, you set up a shelf with me as a princess?" ”

"I don't dare."

"Don't dare? I don't think there's anything you wouldn't dare! Chu Bingsong scolded: "When did you have a relationship with that Lin Shizi, and let him invite the Holy Decree to marry you!" ”

Green Sprouts were so angry that their faces were flushed, how could a father slander his biological daughter like this: "Master"

"Shut up for me, is there a place for you to talk to a shitty girl!" Chu Bingsong said angrily.

Green Bud bit her lip, Chu Xi only looked at Chu Bingsong who was thunderous lightly, he was so angry when he saw that he was married well, that was really good.

"My father said that I was on good terms, but is there any evidence? Anyway, the second sister is with Yun Gongzi and Jiao Gongzi, and there are still witnesses, Daddy is so favoritism, and it is passed out, I am afraid that the imperial history will be involved in your excerpt again. Chu Xi said that the clouds were light and light, and she didn't feel anything at all.

Chu Bingsong's face was blue and white, Chu Zhenzhen's matter made him a laughing stock in the whole capital, although Mrs. Chu thought of a compromise method, but where could she withstand the deliberate spread of rumors by people with intentions. In addition, he knew the truth of the matter for a long time, and it was empty-hearted to argue with others.

"Chu Xi, you dare to threaten me?" Chu Bingsong held back for a long time before he said this.

"I don't dare, I'm just talking to you about things, you are so angry, won't it be because I got this marriage? If you are so unhappy father, you can go to the palace and tell the emperor that you do not agree to this marriage. Chu Xi smiled lightly.

Chu Bingsong looked at Chu Xi, who was completely unmoved, and flicked his sleeves: "Don't think you don't know, since you returned home, Chu Mansion has been in turmoil, don't think I don't know that you are making trouble." ”

Chu Ji smiled more and more happily: "Since my father thinks so, it is better to send someone to investigate carefully and come up with evidence, you are the prime minister of the court, you can't slander people with empty words everywhere, even if the eldest brother is in prison, it is all complete with human and material evidence." Chu Xi stepped on him wherever he was in pain.

Chu Bingsong knew that she was unreasonable, but she didn't like Chu Xi, no matter whether she was obedient or rebellious, she just didn't like it: "Just like your mother, she is a bad star who comes to harm me!" Chu Bingsong said angrily.

When Chu Xi heard this, Rao tried her best to control herself, and now she couldn't help it: "It turns out that your mother is your evil star, it seems that your position as prime minister is also a scourge, why don't your father resign as soon as possible and go back to Jiangnan to buy a few acres of land for retirement." Chu Xi seemed to be angry, and her words were sharper. But when I thought of Yang Pei, the biological mother who died, she helped Chu Bingsong from a poor scholar who was nothing to become a prime minister, and suffered a lot for him, and even did not hesitate to cut off relations with the Yang family, but in the end he ended up being killed by them all, and now he actually said that his mother was a bad star.

Chu Xi was so angry that she wanted to laugh out loud: "My father used to rely on my mother, but now I rely on Qin Xue and my daughter, when will I be able to rely on myself?" ”

"You ----!" Chu Bingsong was so angry that he raised his hand and was about to slap Chu Xi, but before the slap fell, Lu Tan grabbed his wrist.

Chu Xi stood in place and did not move, looking at the angry Chu Bingsong in front of him, the anger in his heart had been slowly cleaned up, but his expression was indifferent, and his voice was slightly cold: "Father, I will get married in a year, this year I will prepare for marriage with peace of mind, and I beg my father to give me peace of mind for the sake of my dead mother." With that, he turned and left.

Lu Tan also let go of Chu Bingsong's hand, Chu Bingsong looked at this imposing daughter now, turned around and waved his hand, and threw everything on the desk to the ground.

Out of the yard, Green Sprout was a little flustered: "Miss, you are like this, will the master hold a grudge?" ”

The corners of Chu Xi's mouth were hooked, she was not like this, Chu Bingsong also wished that she was dead, so why not be presumptuous now.

Back to the Pavilion of the Pavilion, Xiao Fuer and Chunzhi were both happy.

"I heard that the Lin family has a simple population, and Marquis Lin is very liked by the emperor, and the family is well-off, you will marry when you get married, but it will be a good life." Harue laughed beside her.

Chu Xi only looked at the purple jade on the table, and to this day, she still couldn't figure out what Lin Qingyu's purpose was.

Xiao Fu'er paced back and forth: "I heard that Miss has to embroider her own wedding dress, there are a lot of things to prepare, we have to be busy now, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to prepare at that time." There is also a dowry, and a dowry book should be prepared, and everything should be counted."

Xiao Fu'er said to herself, but the green sprouts were sad and lowered her eyebrows, Miss's dowry was taken a lot by those nuns before, and later, although Lord Yushi helped to find some of it, Miss also changed it all to silver tickets, where is the money to buy a dowry now.

Chu Xi didn't think about this, there is still a year to go, and everything will change.

A few people were thinking about it, when news suddenly came from outside, saying that Mrs. Li was coming.

Green Sprout's palms tightened: "Miss, you have to welcome in." ”

Chu Xi bowed slightly, and the green sprouts hurriedly turned around and went out, Chu Xi asked people to prepare tea, and also turned to the flower hall.

Mrs. Li is wearing a plain skirt today. Hurried footsteps with a smile on his face; "I'm here to congratulate my sister." Mrs. Li stepped into the threshold and said with a smile.

Chu Xi chuckled lightly and let people serve tea; "What do you say now, congratulations, my grandmother hasn't woken up, my eldest brother is in prison, and Brother Hong'er has been poisoned and hasn't woken up."

"Hey, even so, your happy event here is still a happy event, and the Chu Mansion has become like this, and I can't blame you." Mrs. Li stepped forward and sat beside Chu Xi by herself.

Chu Xi frowned slightly, raised her eyes and saw Li Xiao, who was a little pale underneath: "Cousin Xiao's face is a little wrong, but what happened?" ”

Li Xiao heard Chu Xi talking to him, and hurriedly waved his hand: "No, it's okay." When he saw Chu Xi, he couldn't help but feel heartache, and lowered his eyes gloomily.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li hurriedly said: "He has been too tired from reading recently, so I will also take him out for a walk and relax." ”

Chu Ji bowed lightly. Mrs. Li looked at Chu Ji and said, "I heard that the prince of the Lin family did not lead an errand in the court, and there was no one in the Hou Mansion who served in the court."

Only then did Chu Xi understand her intention, and said with a shallow smile: "Aunt asked me, how would I know?" Besides, the emperor's decree has been issued, no matter whether there is anyone in their family who serves in the imperial court, this cannot be controlled by me. ”

Mrs. Li touched a soft nail at Chu Xi's place and smiled wryly, but Li Xiao couldn't help but ask, "Is the eldest sister really willing to marry her?" ”

Chu Xi looked at his hot eyes, and frowned slightly: "The holy decree has been made, so I can't help but say whether I want to or not." ”

"Is the eldest sister unhappy?" Li Xiao said excitedly.

Chu Xi lowered her eyebrows, put the teacup on one side, and got up: "Auntie, my body is a little tired, I will go to your courtyard to greet you when I am empty." Li Xiao's words were too much, she and Li Xiao only had a few faces, even if she helped him twice, she didn't have any other thoughts, and she paid attention to keeping her distance from him. He asked like this, not only abruptly, but also forced her to say whether or not to say it or not. If this word spreads, it will be Chu Xi's loss.

Li Xiao's brain was hot, and she wanted to chase and ask: "Big sister"

Chu Xi didn't say anything more, let people wait, and he turned his head and went inside.

Mrs. Li's face sank and stopped Li Xiao: "Xiao'er, Ji'er is her daughter's family, if you chase her like this and ask, won't you hurt her." ”

Li Xiao seemed to have been poured cold water on this and came to her senses: "I don't want to harm my eldest sister." ”

"Alright." Mrs. Li looked gloomily at the direction Chu Xi left: "Let's go, let's go and sit at your grandmother's." With that, he turned his head and left with his back raised and his chin raised.

Li Xiao was a little depressed, and Lu Ya felt distressed when she saw it, and stepped forward: "Cousin, are you okay?" ”

As if she hadn't noticed her, Li Xiao lowered her head and followed Mrs. Li away.

Xiao Fu'er gritted his teeth angrily: "This cousin is also a scholar, why did he come here today to talk nonsense." ”

"My cousin has no ill intentions." Green Sprout said in a hurry.

Both Green Sandalwood and Spring Branches sensed that something was wrong with the green buds. Xiao Fu'er snorted: "I'm afraid that this kind of malicious will hurt people, and I won't even complain about him when the time comes." ”

Green Sprout's face turned red, and he only turned his head to look at Chu Xi: "Miss, cousin him"

"Little Fu'er." Chu Xi said slowly.

"Hey, what does Miss command?" Xiao Fu'er said with flickering apricot eyes.

"You quietly go to Aunt Yanxue's place, and ask her not to come to my house during this time, and if there is something to do, someone will send a letter." Chu Xue said, now that Chu Bingsong didn't punish Qin Xue, it must have been Qin Xue who carried him out of the Dingguo Mansion. Now that Qin Fei is dead, the Bai family is also depressed, and the mansion is all in charge of the Qin Xun family who just moved back, and this Dingguo Mansion is Qin Xue's Dingguo Mansion again. Once Qin Xue regains Chu Bingsong's trust and deals with Chu Qitai's affairs, then the first person she will be able to hold the knife will definitely be Aunt Yanxue, and she naturally has to come to the dark, and the Bai family, although she is not emotional, as long as she makes good use of it, it is a good chess piece to deal with Qin Xue's mother and daughter. What's more, Qin Xue died by herself and killed Qin Fei, as long as the Bai family knew the truth, she would definitely bite Qin Xue to death.

Xiao Fu'er answered and went out, and Lu Ya wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to speak.

"It's still snowing outside." Lu Tan looked out and said, "Normally, this snow should have stopped, but now it is still falling, and I don't know how many people will freeze to death." ”

Chu Xi sighed lightly, the sky does not tolerate people, and people do not tolerate people, this world

Knowing the news of Chu Xi's marriage, Yun Songyi hurried from home, and his eyes were already red as soon as he came in.

"Sister Ji'er, I'm sorry for you."

Chu Ji looked at her suspiciously, and after she said it for a long time, she realized that she thought that she married Lin Qingyu because she wanted to repay her kindness, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with this matter." ”

Yun Songyi was still not at ease: "But that Lin Shizi is disfigured." If you marry, your life will be ruined. ”

Chu Ji smiled, and when she saw Yun Songyi, she said again: "Otherwise, how about we find a way to withdraw from this family business?" ”

Chu Xi asked her to sit on the warm couch: "Do you know how to play chess?" ”

"That's nature." Yun Songyi smiled, and rolled up his sleeves to play chess with her as he spoke, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong: "Sister Xi'er, you haven't said that what I just proposed is okay?" ”

Chu Xi smiled and shook his head: "The royal decision, do you think it's really just a holy decree written down by the saint happily?" "The emperor naturally has his own reasons for doing this, where is it so easy to retreat.

Yun Songyi looked at her, and tears were about to pop up in her eyes: "Then what should I do, is it possible that you really want to marry in the past?" ”

"Sister Ji'er is unwilling to withdraw from the marriage, maybe Lin Shizi is willing." A female voice came from outside.

Yun Songyi frowned inexplicably, and was a little surprised when he saw it clearly: "It's you?" ”

Chu Dai'er stepped forward with a smile: "Dai'er has seen Miss Yun." ”

Chu Xi glanced at Lu Tan: "The mother-in-law at the door directly sent the tooth woman to buy it." ”

Lu Tan glared at Chu Dai'er, turned his head and went out, and after a while, he heard the mother-in-law's begging for mercy.

Lu Tan snorted coldly: "Since you can't recognize the master, what are you still doing here?" "The people who came didn't reply, so Chu Dai'er came in directly. It's really Chu Ji a soft persimmon.

Chu Dai'er smiled faintly, listening to the voice outside, chuckling: "Why do big sisters make such a big fuss, they are slaves in the end, if the big sister is not happy for Dai'er to come, Dai'er will compensate you for it." ”

Chu Ji looked at her and smiled lightly: "Since the fourth sister knows that I don't like you to come, then you can go out." ”

Chu Dai'er seemed to expect Chu Ji to say this, biting her lip slightly, lowering her head with red eyes, and after a while, Yun Songyi saw her crying: "Big sister really doesn't like Dai'er so much, Dai'er has always been respectful to her second sister before, but she doesn't want to go against her big sister, it's just that Dai'er hasn't had her biological mother by her side since she was a child, so she can only swallow her anger in everything, and the big sister must not annoy Dai'er because of this." Chu Dai'er only said that Chu Ji was annoyed with herself because she hated her for standing on Chu Zhenzhen's side.

Yun Songyi looked confused, and Chu Xi's face became more and more interested: "The fourth sister has been smart since she was a child, and she has a better memory than me, I wonder if the fourth sister can remember what you said yesterday?" ”

"What do you mean by big sister?" Chu Dai'er raised her eyes, Chu Chu was pitiful.

Chu Ji looked at Chu Dai'er, who was still acting. Wan Er: "Since the fourth sister likes to stay, let's stay." After that, he let Lu Tan in: "Lu Tan and Chunzhi will stay and serve, no matter where the fourth lady goes, they will be allowed." ”

Where does Lu Tan not understand what Chu Xi means, Chu Dai'er must have bad intentions here, and maybe she will be framed.

Chu Dai'er looked at Chu Xi, who had never been wavering, her eyes were slightly tight, but Chu Xi just got up lazily: "Yi'er, you should also go and see your grandmother." ”

Yun Songyi came back to his senses and said busily: "Yes, yes, I almost forgot, my mother also asked me to bring ginseng." With that, he got up and followed Chu Xi out of the house.

Chu Dai'er was left here like this, Mu Xiang followed with a black face, and said sarcastically directly: "The eldest lady is really majestic now, and she hasn't married yet, but the score of the princess in this world is very full." ”

Chu Xi listened to her words, his steps paused slightly, and the corners of his mouth were hooked: "If you commit the following offenses, you will slap your mouth ten times." ”

As soon as Chu Xi's words fell, Lu Tan glanced at the mother-in-law who was waiting next to her, where did the mother-in-law dare to delay, stepped forward and grabbed Mu Xiang is ten slaps, and suddenly her little face was swollen.

Chu Ji turned her head to look at Chu Dai'er who was standing in place, and chuckled: "Fourth sister, this is the Pavilion of the Pavilion, if you want to provoke, change places next time, and save your girl from suffering." Chu Xi didn't seem to be afraid of these words getting out, and after speaking, he left with Yun Songyi.

Chu Dai'er is now favored by the old lady, and her subordinates are moving more and more, and they are becoming more and more greedy, and Chu Dai doesn't want to tolerate her at all.

After Chu Xi left, Lu Tan stepped forward with a smile: "Fourth Miss, do you want to visit Miss's inner room or the bathroom?" Or you can also look at the east wing and the west wing, there are many rooms, and you can hide a lot of things. ”

Chu Dai'er's face was slightly pale, she glanced at the green sandalwood with a little murderous intent, and left with the swollen wood fragrance of her face.

On the way, Yun Songyi looked at Chu Xi's eyes that were completely starry: "I just look at how your fourth sister feels awkward, it turns out that she is actually playing these tricks in private." ”

Chu Xi smiled lightly, she also played tricks herself, but she would not send her own people out as bait in vain, and she would return a hundred times if she was a good person!

"When are you going to Yunfu?" Chu Xi asked.

Yun Songyi grinned: "Originally, I was going to go in a few days, but they didn't have the heart to care about me these days." ”

"Huh?" Chu Ji looked at her, but Yun Songyi laughed: "Something happened to that gentleman of the Yun family, where do they still have the energy to take care of me." ”

"Yunkang?" Chu Ji said.

Yun Songyi nodded: "I heard that I drank too much and went to the lake, although my life was saved, but it seems that I have suffered too much cold, and now I am lying in bed like a fool." ”

Chu Xi listened to it, it was just a battle in the Yun Mansion, and Yun Kang and Jiao Simiao had done a lot of evil things together, and now it can be regarded as retribution.

Chu Xi thought about it like this, so she didn't think about it anymore, and took Yun Songyi to see the old lady.

When the old lady arrived at night, she had already sobered up, and she also relieved her heart, but when she thought of Chu Qitai and Brother Hong, her heart ached.

Bai Xue led Chu Xi inside, and said as she walked, "The old lady has suffered a crime this time. ”

"Did you wake up?" Chu Xi asked.

Bai Xue bowed slightly, and still took Chu Xi's hand before entering: "The eldest lady has been here, I don't know what to say to the old lady, and the old lady is so angry that the eldest lady can't do it, but the eldest lady left with a relaxed expression." ”

Chu Xue bowed her head, but she wanted to know what Qin Xue was here for. Now that the old lady is ill, it is time for her to take back the power of the house. However, it is not a good thing for Qin Xue to take the power of the family, even though the old lady is selfish, she has no intention of harming her, with the old lady here, she can be more or less relieved. If the old lady didn't care about the backyard at all, Qin Xue was afraid that she would have no fear.

When I saw the old lady, she was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, but she was short of breath. Apparently just lost his temper.

"Grandmother." Chu Ji stepped forward and saluted.

The old lady's eyelids moved, she raised her eyes, and when she saw her coming with Yun Songyi, she sighed and asked Mother Jiang to help herself up, before beckoning Chu Xi to come over: "How is Brother Hong?" ”

"Not awake yet." Chu Ji said.

The old lady sighed: "In the end, I didn't protect it." ”

Chu Xi saw that the old lady had no intention of scolding Qin Xue, thinking that she knew that Yanxue was making trouble in it.

"Grandmother, don't worry, Brother Hong's life is great, and it will be fine." Chu Xi said lightly.

"I hope so." The old lady stared at Chu Xi: "I heard that the emperor gave you a marriage with the Marquis of Anping?" ”

Chu Ji bowed her head, and the old lady saw that she did not have the slightest discoloration, and sighed in her heart: "Granddaughter, you and Dai'er are smart, you are too sharp, Dai'er is too ruthless, you two" Before the old lady finished speaking, she began to cough again, and Jiang's mother hurriedly brought tea over.

Chu Xi was a little surprised, didn't the old lady always love Chu Dai'er, how could she notice her methods.

The old lady seemed to guess what Chu Xi was thinking. He coughed before he said, "As soon as Chuncao entered the house, I knew what was going on. Chuncao is also a hard-working child, but I don't know when she hated you" The old lady's tone was sad, she paused for a while, remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Mother Jiang, go and bring the things prepared." ”

Jiang's mother answered, turned to leave, and after a while, she came over with a carved sandalwood box, and a small gold lock was added to the box.

"This is" Yun Songyi's eyes widened, but Old Madam Chu directly asked Mother Jiang to hand over the box to Chu Xi, and gave her a key: "Since you are going to get married, I can give you all these." ”

Chu Xi didn't reach out to take it, she could almost guess what was inside, how tempting it was for ordinary people, but Jiang was still old and spicy, and the old lady must have another purpose in doing this.

"What does Grandmother want her to do?" Chu Xi smiled lightly.

The old lady looked at her and only felt that she had not seen the wrong person. Blink to look at Jiang's mother. Mother Jiang understood and opened the key herself, and only then did a few people see clearly what was inside, and it was actually three folds.

"This is your mother's and my dowry, your mother kept a lot of dowry with me back then, plus what I have saved over the years, there must be a dowry of one hundred and twenty-eight lifts." Old Madam Chu said.

Yun Songyi looked at Chu Xi in surprise, one hundred and twenty-eight is a lot, and if there is more dowry, the in-laws will be able to afford it, this is what the mother said.

Chu Xi stood on one side and was silent, and when the old lady saw this, she let out a long sigh: "You are really different from your mother." ”

The corners of Chu Xi's mouth were hooked, it was because she was different, so she could live now.

"Grandmother, my grandmother is only fourteen, I can't do anything, and I have to rely on my grandmother for some things." Chu Ji said, she knows. Old Madam Chu must have wanted to suppress Chu Dai'er so that the Chu Mansion could continue to flourish in Chu Bingsong's hands, but she came with hatred to destroy this filthy Chu Mansion.

"Yi'er, what about the ginseng you brought for your grandmother." Chu Xi changed the topic lightly.

Yun Songyi hurriedly took the ginseng, diverted the topic, and left with Chu Xi after a few brief words.

Before Chu Xi left, the old lady's face sank.

"Old lady, I'm afraid the eldest lady is timid," Jiang's mother said busily.

The old lady was so angry that she coughed again, and only when her face turned pale did she say, "Go and find Dai'er." ”

"Old lady, fourth young lady, she" Mother Jiang wanted to say that Chu Dai'er's mind was too dark, and even Chuncao was tortured by her and was still loyal to her, she was much more terrifying than Chu Xi.

"After all, it's just a girl, no matter how powerful it is, how powerful can it be, if it weren't for my body" The old lady didn't want to say more, raised her hand and sent Jiang's mother out.

After leaving the Ronghua Courtyard, Yun Songyi looked at Chu Xi worriedly: "Aren't you afraid that your grandmother will go to find your weird fourth sister?" ”

Even Yun Songyi thought of it, how could Chu Xi not think of it: "Don't worry." Chu Xi looked indifferently at Chu Dai'er, who had already come over, and lifted her lips slightly: "The most ruthless in this house." It's not me, it's not her. "The most skillful and ruthless in this house is their grandmother, who seems to be loving and generous. It's just that I don't know if my mother's death has anything to do with her, otherwise how could my mother's dowry fall into her hands!
