The Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is located in the east direction of the palace, as we all know, it is the largest mansion in the capital in addition to the imperial palace, the mansion is divided into the main courtyard and the east and west two compounds, the original main courtyard is a royal palace, the east and west two courtyards are the two official mansions adjacent to the palace, and later the three courtyards were combined into one, and it was given to the Dingyuan Marquis as a residence.

The main courtyard of the Hou Mansion is mainly the residence of the Marquis of Dingyuan and his wife and his sons-in-law, and most of the concubines and concubines live in the West Courtyard, and the East Courtyard is a place specially used by the Hou Mansion to hold banquets and various activities.

Lin Shuran got out of the carriage and looked up at the vermilion gate of the east compound of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, which revealed the wealth and heaviness of the Zhong Ding family under the majesty and magnificence.

There was already a lot of traffic in front of the door, and the gorgeously dressed guests were being welcomed into the door by the people of the Hou Mansion, but it was just a side courtyard of the Hou Mansion, but it looked more lively and noisy than the main entrance of other princely houses.

Lin Shuran walked up the steps with Lingqin and Feiyue, and immediately had maids greet them, leading them to the place where the ladies were resting, and stepping into the door, the purpose was a very luxurious white marble screen, carved round arches, precious flowers and plants that can be seen everywhere, small bridges and flowing water, pavilions and pavilions, Biwa Zhuyong, it is really magnificent, and it is eye-popping.

"This is just a side courtyard, I don't know how rich and gorgeous the main courtyard is!" Lin Shuran couldn't help but sigh and continued to move forward with the maid of the Hou Mansion.

Soon, she came to the flower pavilion where the female guests were, but she didn't see anyone she knew, but those who didn't like her seemed to be there.

Su Wanwan's beautiful eyes can burst into flames when she sees Lin Shuran appear, she never lets herself lose her temper in front of others, only when she sees Lin Shuran, the jealousy and anger can't be suppressed, this woman is already married and still occupies her husband Xiao Chen's heart, and can even make him violate the principle of being a person and doing things, she is really a great ability!

Gu Xiruo and Qi Rou'er also looked at Lin Shuran with unkind eyes, the last time they were in Long'an Temple, because of Lin Shuran, they were all reprimanded by their mother-in-law, Princess Ling, obviously what happened at that time had nothing to do with them, they also suffered so much grievances in vain, and both of them counted this account on Lin Shuran's head.

Princess Ling also frowned when she saw Lin Shuran, she was reprimanded by the prince and lost face in front of her daughter-in-law, this is all due to Lin Shuran, now the General's Mansion has offended many people, I heard that Lin Shuran didn't have the brains to stir up the matter of entering the Fang family, she really didn't think she died fast enough.

Thinking that now that the Ling Wangfu and the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion are married, her daughter will soon become the head of the powerful Hou Mansion, Princess Ling became even more arrogant, she raised her eyebrows and walked in front of Lin Shuran, looked at her in a mocking and mocking tone, and said slowly: "Mrs. Xu, this concubine still thinks that you are hiding in the mansion and dare not see people!" ”

"What is the princess talking about, I didn't steal, I didn't rob, I didn't rob, I didn't do anything wrong, four-" Lin Shuran deliberately dragged out his voice a little, looked at Princess Ling and said meaningfully, "I wasn't grounded by the Queen Mother, it was the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion who gave me an invitation, and I just came, why didn't I dare to come out to meet people!" It's you, Princess Ling, didn't the Queen Mother let you reflect on and recite the thousand Buddha horns at home, you came after reciting it, right? ”

"You-" Princess Ling was angry for a while, Lin Shuran's sharp teeth and teeth had already been taught last time in Long'an Temple, no wonder Dingyuan's wife Yuan said to her, this Lin family's daughter can't be underestimated, Mrs. Lin is an old fox, where can the daughter he raised be simple and kind, didn't you see that the queen mother was coaxed by them, "Hmph, Mrs. Xu has a sharp mouth that is unforgiving, and she has a seven-trick mind, I heard that you carried the young master of the Fang family into the Great General's Mansion." Isn't it also for the Fang family's hidden golden pagoda? ”

"Princess, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense, this Fang family's case hasn't been found out yet, how can you conclude that the Fang family is hiding a golden pagoda? I remember the Ren family's Golden Pagoda case, the emperor sent the minister of the Qin Mission, not only Fang Lao Yushi, but also the old Fang Yushi's people, who is not clear about the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, if there is really any treasure missing from the Ren family, are the ministers who investigated the case suspicious? Lin Shuran will not be accustomed to Princess Ling pouring dirty water on her and the Xu family in public, and she will also be able to use this trick when the water is in trouble.

Princess Ling's face changed immediately, didn't Lin Shuran say that the Jin Pagoda that the Ren family had disappeared was also related to her family's prince, and the ministers who investigated the Ren family's case back then were not only Fang Lao Yushi Fang E, but also her family's prince, Chen Xiangye, and Qing Wangye, so he retorted angrily: "Mrs. Xu, you are slandering, this concubine can go to the queen mother to sue you." ”

Lin Shuran was not intimidated by her, but smiled indifferently, the tone seemed to be that Princess Ling was making a fuss, and said: "Why should the princess be angry, I am not also learning and selling, you are a gentleman, I am a student, if you don't learn well, you can take care of it, it's not good to say that you wronged me first, and then lost the bearing of the royal daughter-in-law, this has to be passed out, so as not to make people laugh." ”

"You-you-" Princess Ling raised her right hand and pointed at Lin Shuran with her index finger trembling, she was angry with Lin Shuran again, the world can make her angry like this, except for King Ling's princess Bu Yunna, it is the Lin Shuran in front of her.

"Mother-in-law!" Gu Xiruo and Qi Rou'er hurriedly walked to Princess Ling's side to support her, and at the same time, Gu Xiruo was the first to speak and scolded Lin Shuran angrily, "Mrs. Xu, how can you talk to the princess like this, don't forget what your identity is!" ”

Lin Shuran's eyes gradually turned cold to look at Gu Xiruo, not long after marrying into King Ling's Mansion as a side concubine, the momentum on Gu Xiruo's body had completely changed, and she didn't know her at all.

"Concubine Gu, of course I know what my identity is, next time the princess should not wronged a good person at will, otherwise no matter how honest the rabbit is, it will bite people if she is in a hurry!" Lin Shuran no longer gave Gu Xiruo a good look, the past love had been broken when she opened her mouth to add makeup, and she would not get used to Gu Xiruo.

Gu Xiruo had never seen such a cold expression on Lin Shuran's face, and she would never even think that such an expression would appear on the face of Lin Shuran, who had always been gentle and kind, at this moment, she suddenly realized that the Lin Shuran in front of her was no longer the Lin Shuran she thought in her heart, she had changed, completely changed!

"Mrs. Xu, don't think that you can bully people at will by relying on the favor of the Queen Mother, not to mention, the princess is of a higher grade than you, and it is disrespectful for you to speak against her!" At this time, Su Wanwan also stood up to speak for Princess Ling, and at the same time her chin was raised and her eyes were fiercely aimed at her.
