Chapter 66: Throwing Yourself into the Net
There is no need to enter the palace again, Su Jinyin soon knew.
Her father Su Keli said it himself.
In the study, after Su Keli finished talking about this decision, he looked at his eldest daughter with his hands behind his back for a long time.
He had never looked at this daughter of his so seriously.
She is seventeen years old this year, and she has reached the age of discussing relatives. Other......
Su Keli realized that he didn't know much about this daughter.
He asked Su Jinyin, "How did you and King Qing meet?"
Su Jinyin replied: "The last time I went to the banquet of the county lord of Lan'an, my daughter accidentally met it. ”
She certainly won't tell the truth.
Su Keli asked again: "When did you first meet the third prince?"
"The last time I was at home, it was the first time my daughter saw the third prince. When he was in the mansion of the lord of Lan'an County, the person summoned by the third prince was Fusse. ”
Su Jinyin guessed from these two questions that King Qing was on his side, and probably sent someone to say something unclear. So her father couldn't figure out what was going on between her and the two.
She looked up at Su Keli's expression carefully, and there was no contempt or joy in it.
This serious and silent appearance made Su Jinyin feel a little familiar.
In her previous life, she believed that her father was a stern but not harsh, cold but not ruthless person.
Su Keli's expression coincided with the father figure imagined in his previous life.
It seems that in her previous life, she couldn't be completely blamed for not knowing people accurately. Su Jinyin thought a little self-deprecatingly.
She asked very directly, "Father, did King Qing ask you not to send me to the palace?"
A look of surprise flashed across Su Keli's face, and he denied it, "No. It's the Three Princes. ”
Su Jinyin immediately understood that King Qing's message was probably the same as that of Gonggong Chen. But she couldn't tell why, and although she didn't doubt her father's words, she decided that it was still done by King Qing.
Qin Ziyan's decision was prompted by a certain action of King Qing.
Su Jinyin seems to have too much trust in this Qing prince.
Su Keli noticed his daughter's distraction, and he was unhappy in his heart. He endured it, but in the end he couldn't hold back, and admonished: "I went to mark the name on the draft book in the name of your illness, and during this time, don't go out." The rest of the people outside, you'd better not see them. Also, my sister is gone, you should always be sad!"
Su Jinyin felt that Su Keli's focus was on the last sentence. But it doesn't matter, she doesn't listen to every word by heart now.
Bowing to Su Keli, Su Jinyin replied, "Yes, my daughter let my father worry about it." If you don't have anything else to do, your daughter goes back to her room. ”
Su Keli waved his hand, not holding back at all.
He stared at the back of his eldest daughter for a while, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart. It seems that his daughter's actions and words are impeccable, but he is not satisfied.
This dissatisfaction was attributed to the habits that Zheng had brought him over the years. At this time, he took special pity on Aunt Zhao, who lost her daughter.
Aunt Zhao is also very caring.
Obviously, she was so sad that she had lost a lot of weight, and even walking was really weak willow to help the wind, so Su Keli had to take a quick step to support her.
But all she thought about was Su Keli.
Aunt Zhao didn't show the same joy as in the past when she saw Su Keli, but said with a little sadness: "The eldest lady is about to enter the palace, and the master still goes to accompany Mrs. more, I'm afraid she will feel uncomfortable." ”
Su Keli listened to it and felt a twitch.
He sat down with Aunt Zhao's waist and replied, "No one in the house is uncomfortable now, and it will not surpass you." ”
Aunt Zhao's tears rolled down.
Su Keli took the handkerchief to wipe it with his own hands, he hurriedly bypassed the topic and said, "Besides, Jinyin is sick, so I won't enter the palace to participate in the draft this time." ”
Aunt Zhao asked with teary eyes: "Is it serious?" The concubine hasn't gone to see her yet, which is not in line with etiquette. ”
"There are not so many courtesies. If she had, she would not have been able to marry at such a time. After all, Fusse ......" Su Keli felt speechless, and once again changed the topic, saying, "It's a pretext." Others don't know, I'll just tell you. She didn't know how to get into the eyes of the three princes, and the three princes probably didn't get the gift from His Majesty this time, so they simply didn't want her to participate in this draft. ”
Although Su Keli doted on Aunt Zhao in the past, he never mentioned people in the court to her. This time, he felt too sorry for Aunt Zhao.
This kind of distress naturally makes Zheng's mood very bad.
Su Jinyin can't go out, so it's easier for the Zheng family to find her mistakes.
"Kneel!" Zheng said angrily.
Su Jinyin looked at Zheng at the same level, her eyes were not shocked, and she asked, "I don't know what happened to my daughter to make your mother so angry?"
Whether it is following the Zheng family or going against the Zheng family, in short, there will be no less such unreasonable trouble. Therefore, Su Jinyin simply did not comply with everything as in the past.
Zheng casually scooped up the pastry plate on the side of his hand and smashed it over. A stack of cool osmanthus cakes was smashed and rolled around.
After she finished smashing, there was a rare trace of regret in her eyes. But soon regret is gone, replaced by resentment.
Zheng scolded: "You broke the hairpin that your grandmother gave you, shouldn't you be punished?"
"Which one?" Su Jinyin reacted after asking, I'm afraid this is still the one that the double star fell. She really couldn't find a reason for this.
It's just that this finding a reason to punish people is something that Zheng will not do. Zheng has always acted recklessly without asking questions.
Su Jinyin guessed that the Zheng family knew about the three princes. After all, there were many people who heard Qin Ziyan's words that day.
She replied without humility or arrogance: "Mother has already punished the hairpin that day. One life for two stars, I think that's enough. ”
"Whether it's enough or not, it's not up to you to decide!" Zheng retorted.
Seeing that Su Jinyin was silent for the time being, she thought that she had the upper hand, and continued to reprimand with a cold snort: "The elder gave it, but it was not preserved, this is unfilial piety." From now on, you will go to the ancestral hall for me to kneel and copy the scriptures, and I will not be allowed to come out until I finish copying ten volumes!"
Copying scriptures, compared with the harshness of the Zheng family in the past, is a rare and easy punishment.
But Su Jinyin refused: "My daughter is right, my daughter doesn't think she should be punished." ”
"Presumptuous!" Zheng simply endured a provocation that he had never experienced before. She stood up and rushed directly to Su Jinyin, raising her hand to slap Su Jinyin.
The so-called three princes, the so-called stumbling blockers, were all thrown out of the clouds by the Zheng family.
Su Jinyin grabbed Zheng's wrist and said, "Mother, it's better for you to be sober." What the daughter has not done cannot be counted on the daughter's head. Whether it is now or in the past, my daughter is not guilty of being heinous and unforgivable. ”
These words can actually be regarded as a reminder to the Zheng family that no matter what Su Jinyin's daughter's background is, the Zheng family should not blame her. After all, Su Jinyin was just a baby for a few months.
Zheng didn't listen to a word of these words. Or rather, all she heard was opposition.
"It's the other way around! it's the other way around!" Zheng was even more excited than before, she broke free of Su Jinyin to no avail, she actually lowered her head like a child and tried to bite Su Jinyin's hand.
Su Jinyin quickly let go of Zheng and said, "Since the mother is unwell, the daughter will retire first." ”
After she finished speaking, she lifted her skirt and trotted, and the Zheng family, who shouted behind her, was half angry.
