Chapter 293: Elder Sister
Xue Hainiang is also from a high family, and she knows the guard system of the back house of the mansion.
If it weren't for the palace palace, there would never be such strict guards, and looking at the battle in front of him, which was divided into two rows and six people in a row, it was definitely not the system that the mansion should have, unless there was a major matter, but now there is no life in the mansion, and with Mrs. Liu's ability to cover the sky with one hand, she must know that she Xue Hainiang will come to meet today, and now there are so many guards, isn't it suspicious of life?
Xue Hainiang seemed to be smiling on her lips, dignified and self-controlled, but in fact, she had already passed all the conspiracies and tricks in her mind.
She said to Juan'er, "Come in with me." ”
This is a matter of course, and Juan'er couldn't refuse, so she could only nod, but she secretly took a step back, deliberately walking behind Xue Hainiang.
Xue Hainiang knew it, but she didn't say a word. He only stepped forward with a smile and stepped up the stone steps, but he stood still in front of the gatekeeper, tilting his chin slightly, and the phoenix eyes raised at the corners of his eyes seemed to be mixed with a little arrogance.
She commanded Juan'er. "You go and ask for the concubine, can't the concubine go in now?"
Juan'er looked a little embarrassed, so she had to take a step forward, but she never thought that she, who was close to the door, was about to make a statement to the guards when she took a step, but her ankle seemed to have tripped over someone, and her body subconsciously leaned forward, and fell to the ground like losing her center of gravity.
Between the lightning and flint, the guards didn't have time to stop it, but they couldn't immediately pull out their swords to pierce Juan'er's heart with a sword, although the princess girl sold the death deed and her life was in the hands of the master, but Juan'er didn't commit any crime at the moment, and she was a person personally cultivated by Mrs. Liu, if she saw blood here, I am afraid that Mrs. Liu would not easily spare the person who did it.
But she never thought that Juan'er fell straight into the hall - her head slammed into the door, and her hairpin fell to the ground.
She bent her hands forward, and the door had opened a gap in the door from her sudden fall, and it just so happened that one of her elbows was stuck in the door.
Xue Hainiang exclaimed, and immediately stepped forward to help Juan'er up, while Ah Ling gently opened the door wider without others noticing, and quietly stepped into it.
The guard came to his senses for a moment, and one of them stepped forward with a wrinkled face: "Side concubine...... Here, Mrs. Xu is taking a nap, wait for me to go in and report ......"
Xue Hainiang's face was fierce, and she said in a low voice: "Oh...... It was so loud that even if Mrs. Liu was taking a nap, she was awakened, so there was no need to report such trouble. And this concubine is above Mrs. Liu, if this concubine comes to meet Mrs. Liu for a while, Mrs. Liu still needs to be reported, wouldn't it be a pain in Mrs. Liu?" said that, he led Ah Ling to step in, and did not care about Juan'er, who was a little bruised and swollen, leaving her gasping in place.
The guards stepped forward tremblingly. Naturally, he is not afraid of Juan'er, although Juan'er is a person cultivated by Mrs. Liu, but he can't be called close to his body and mind, what he is afraid of is undoubtedly Mrs. Liu, who has always been clever and gentle to the outside world, but in fact, she is resolute and resolute in private.
"Miss Juan'er. What should we do now?"
Mrs. Liu ordered a few of him to guard here, don't let the side concubine easily set foot in the hall, I heard that this side concubine Xue is a gentle person, but I never thought that the rumors were wrong, and the side concubine looked at where it was a good match......
Juan'er gasped, struggling to get up on the ground, rubbing the elbow joints that were red, and said angrily: "Why don't you pull it...... It was so easy to let her in. "At that time, if Mrs. Liu is to blame, she and the guards will not be able to eat and walk around.
After that, he ignored the trembling guards on the spot, and limped towards the temple.
——
Mrs. Liu looked shocked and stared directly at the beautiful woman in front of her who was smiling like a flower and the pear vortex was shallow.
She seemed to have come dressed up on purpose, wearing a magenta wrapping skirt and an ivory Hunan embroidered begonia heart-bearing cloak, Xue Hainiang came in such a way, but Mrs. Liu, who was lying on the collapse and pretending to take a nap, was suddenly stunned.
Mrs. Liu's gaffe was only for a moment, and after removing the undeserved look on her face, she turned her head sideways and scolded the maid who was playing with incense powder on her side: "When the side concubine came, she didn't report to Mrs. Ben in advance." As he spoke, he gathered the clothes on his body and looked confused, "It is really rude to ask Mrs. Ben to meet a guest in such a disheveled manner." ”
It seems to be a reprimand to the maid, but in fact, it reflects that Xue Hainiang doesn't know the etiquette and doesn't know how to call someone to report in advance.
The word 'seeing guests' was aggravated, and Xue Hainiang was a guest, and she was the master of the Eight Classics.
The maid hurriedly knelt down and confessed the punishment, "The slave deserves to die, please forgive the lady." ”
"Go down, don't disturb Mrs. Ben and the concubine. Mrs. Liu lazily lifted her eyelids and glanced at her, and the maid hurriedly got up and retired.
When she looked at Xue Hainiang again, Xue Hainiang didn't wait for her to say more, and took the lead in sitting on the soft couch, smiling but not smiling, with a smile on her lips.
Xue Hainiang didn't believe that Mrs. Liu really hadn't heard a trace of the wind, and she was taking a nap so leisurely.
Look at her outfit.
A skirt dragged to the ground, and the skirt was embroidered with golden lotus. The belt inlaid with agate blood and jade around her waist outlines her waist shape extremely beautifully, and a mink cloak gently covers her thin fragrant shoulders, which has a sickly beauty's weak and delicate posture.
"Madame, this courtyard is very luxurious. Xue Hainiang was the first to speak, but it was such a nonsensical compliment, which made people scratch their heads.
Mrs. Liu is not a simple character, and you can know by looking at the stumbling block she gave to Xue Hainiang yesterday, she pulled the cloak on her shoulder, as if she felt a little cold.
"I don't know, is the side concubine satisfied with the courtyard I have placed for you?" said lightly, but it seemed to control all the dominance.
Xue Hainiang smiled on her lips and bowed her head slightly, "When this concubine was in the palace, she had a good relationship with Madame's eldest sister. When Ming'er and her concubines enter the palace to meet all the mothers, I wonder if I can invite my wife to join me?"
Most of the people who know some things in Beijing know that this Mrs. Liu was unable to enter the palace because of Concubine Liu Shu, and it is rumored that Mrs. Liu and Concubine Liu had a long-term relationship when they were in the mansion.
But rumors are just rumors.
Mrs. Liu Rao married into the Qinghui Mansion and was in charge of the palace, but she was also a lady with a low score, and if she responded to the rumors, she was not on good terms with Concubine Liu. Isn't it asking for trouble?
But if it shouldn't, but it is in the arms of Xue Hainiang, and Ming'er will have to enter the palace with her to see the face of her high-ranking eldest sister!
