Ruan Mianmian's eyes widened suddenly, she had never heard her grandfather mention this, and she had never even heard anyone else talk about it.

"I've never heard anyone say that."

"The princess of southern Xinjiang is a concubine, the queen is a concubine, and the relationship between the sisters is really good. When the prince fell in love with the princess, the queen took a lot of effort to let her sister take on the identity of someone else's daughter-in-law, and finally promoted this marriage. ”

"No matter how good the queen's ability is, it's not easy to hide from the emperor."

"The county lord really got to the point, since the prince likes it, then the emperor naturally turns a blind eye."

Ruan Mianmian frowned: "In this way, the emperor loves his younger brother, the queen loves his sister, and the relationship between relatives and relatives should be very good." Why did they fall out again? ”

Gonggong Kang's expression was nervous, and after looking around, his voice lowered: "This slave really doesn't know much, I only remember that the queen and the princess were pregnant at the same time, and they were about to give birth at the same time. ”

A bright light flashed in his mind, as if he had caught something and didn't catch anything, but Ruan Mianmian blurted out: "Lord Minghui was born in the palace?" ”

"The county lord guessed it right." Gonggong Kang's face was full of admiration, "On the occasion of the queen's birthday, the princess entered the palace to celebrate her birthday, and the palace banquet ended a little late that day, so she stayed in the palace." ”

"So the little brother and Li Minghui were born on the same day?" It's too coincidental, Ruan Mianmian instantly has countless plot versions in her mind.

Father-in-law Kang also looked puzzled: "Anyway, it rained heavily that night, and it was a mess, and I really don't know what happened to the slave." ”

"You'll know what happened after that, right?" Ruan Mianmian seized the loophole in Kang's words.

"No one dared to mention what happened later." Kang's father-in-law advised, "If you have heard it, you should not have heard it, and you must not tell anyone." ”

"Father-in-law, don't worry."

The servant remembered that it was dawning, and the princess was carried out of the palace in a coma. The emperor was so angry that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was taken away by the nurse for three months, and the emperor never stepped into the queen's palace. ”

"In those three months, the queen mother didn't see her little brother?"

"Yes. Three days later, the emperor decreed that the prince would be the king of southern Xinjiang and immediately go to the fiefdom. ”

Ruan Mianmian was shocked in her heart, combined with the queen's attitude towards Li Yu, it seemed that she was not his own mother at all, but the little brother obviously looked very similar to the emperor.

No, being similar to the emperor is actually similar to the king of southern Xinjiang, is the old-fashioned plot staged again?

After Gonggong Kang finished speaking, he patted his heart: "This matter is out of the mouth of the slave and into the ears of the county lord, and no third person will know." ”

"I know." Ruan Mianmian gently patted the back of Gonggong Kang's hand, "Don't worry." ”

Turning around, Ruan Mianmian raised her voice as if nothing had happened: "Jiu'er, serve tea." ”

"Yes, I made my father-in-law wait for a long time." Jiu'er came in with tea.

After drinking tea, Ruan Mianmian exchanged a few words with Kang's father-in-law, ordered Jiu'er to send him away, and took two catties of fine tea for him to take back.

"County Lord, what has the emperor rewarded?" Jiu'er went and came back to see the exquisite box on the coffee table.

Ruan Mianmian came back to his senses: "I don't know, just open it and see." ”

At this moment, Ruan Qi, who rushed to hear the news, walked into the house: "I heard that Gonggong Kang is here?" ”

Before Ruan Mianmian could answer, Ruan Qi's eyes were attracted by the box in Jiu'er's hand

As soon as Jiu'er opened it, there was a box full of pink pearls, all of which were a little bigger than a thumb, round and flawless, exuding a faint luster, and it was extraordinary at first glance.

"The emperor's reward is really good." Ruan Mianmian smiled and her eyes narrowed.

Ruan Qi's eyes lit up, such a large pearl is no less valuable than Dongzhu, especially this pale pink color is even rarer. Hearing that it was rewarded by the emperor, he couldn't help but look at Ruan Mianmian.

"Father-in-law Kang sent this." Ruan Mianmian waved her hand after speaking, and Jiu'er put away the box of pearls knowingly.

His eyes fell on Ruan Qi, and Ruan Mianmian said lightly: "Gonggong Kang is gone." ”

"Oh." Ruan Qi showed a look of disappointment.

Ruan Qi originally thought that he hadn't seen him brush his face in front of Gonggong Kang for a few years, and if he had the opportunity, he would be able to help him say a sentence in front of the emperor, but he didn't expect to be a step late.

Just after listening to what Gonggong Kang said about the past, Ruan Mianmian didn't have the heart to deal with Ruan Qi, she stood up and walked out.

When she came back to her senses, Ruan Qi stared at Ruan Mianmian's back, feeling that she really didn't know how to be polite and had no one in her eyes. I'm in a bad mood,

Ruan Qi frowned and walked out, since returning to the Hou Mansion, it seems that everything is not going well. It's not about to be the New Year, and he doesn't have any money on hand.

Because the embroidery workshop rested early, Zhou Yuning was also free, and when she heard that Kang's father-in-law was coming, she hurriedly came after dressing up.

When Zhou Yunning came with Shuang'er, he didn't see Gonggong Kang or Ruan Mianmian, but saw Ruan Qi stepping out of the threshold from inside, and the couple met at the door.

"San Lang." Zhou Yuning greeted him with a smile.

"Madame is late, Father-in-law Kang has just left." Ruan Qi said angrily, "It's nothing, it's just that the emperor rewarded a box of pearls." ”

"Oh." Zhou Yuning's smile became brighter and brighter, "The emperor loves Mianmian very much. ”

Ruan Qi's heart is getting more and more unhappy, the emperor loves his daughter, but his father really can't see that little doll with a bad temper and nostrils that is worthy of so many people's love.

Zhou Yunning could see from Ruan Qi's expression that he was in a bad mood, and wondered if he was in conflict with his daughter again.

"Mianmian is just a child, so San Lang shouldn't worry about her."

"Hmph, out of sight is pure."

Listen to this, is it still what a father should say? Besides, the character of the little milk dumpling is naturally the clearest when she is a mother.

During these days, because he was too busy to pay attention, it can be seen from this piece of words that Ruan Qi was dissatisfied with Ruan Mianmian, and Zhou Yuning's face instantly turned cold.

"San Lang said, what embarrassing thing did Mianmian do to make you a father unbearable?"

Ruan Qi was speechless for a moment, and Ruan Mianmian didn't even say a word to him, but when he saw everyone holding her in the palm of their hands, and watching her treat her as a treasure from the emperor to the people in the palace, his heart was sour.

Facing the aggressive Zhou Yuning, Ruan Qi felt strange, in his memory, she was gentle and supple, with the tenderness of a Jiangnan woman, but now she is radiant and more and more powerful.

Whether it was Zhou Yuning or Ruan Mianmian, although they didn't say anything, Ruan Qi felt that he seemed to be as humble as dust in front of their mother and daughter, which made him feel like his heart was burning from time to time.

In fact, Ruan Qi is jealousy, and the more dazzling the aura of his wife and daughter becomes, the more useless he becomes, but he hasn't figured it out at the moment.
