Volume 1: The First Birth (The Future Is Unclear, Friend and Foe Are Inseparable; Clues and real murders appear) Chapter 57 Liu Yinru's God-given opportunity
Liu Yinru has been extremely absent-minded for the past half a month - just because not long after the daughter of the Wang family came back to the door, she officially sent the media to draw up an invitation ceremony, as if there was no change at all. She was only worried about the inference mistakes she made on the basis of inquiry, and Qiao Shi did not start to implement the plan, how could she not be secretly anxious?
Fortunately, a few days ago, she heard that someone from the palace came, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then geared up to implement the long-planned plan, but later heard that the person who came was actually for Yao Ji, and was immediately disappointed, but she was depressed for less than two days, and found that her mother Qiao Shi gradually became excited, and expected that there should be an accident if she followed closely, Liu Yinru then reinvigorated her spirits, and paid attention to the wind and grass in Xuxiaotang, how could she still have the heart to listen to the study, and she was ridiculed and cold-eyed because she accidentally dropped the scroll and knocked over the ink inkstone in the morning Jingyi and calligraphy class. In the afternoon, the piano class once again became "in full view" because of playing the wrong tune.
Listening to the teaching of the women of the clan is not limited to the daughters of the family, but also the rest of the clan, and even the ladies of the old family of the in-laws, there are about 20 people in the cage, and there are all the concubines. Of course, the shogunate and the teachers only focus on the surname Liu, as for the foreign surname and the concubine, those who listen carefully can win some attention, just like Liu Yinru, who is usually extremely motivated, and the shogunists are also kind to her, but these days she has repeatedly wandered, and the shogunes are too lazy to blame, just like now, Yinru has been practicing the qin music for more than ten days in a mess, and the always strict piano master is only frowning slightly, and after looking at her, he only confesses to the side to meditate and not let others interfere, so he has no sense of responsibility.
is nothing more than a concubine, and it is impossible to become a clan wife in the future, and she will be more angry, and the elders in the family may also spend some effort to promote the marriage with the lower family, otherwise at most she will marry the concubine of the big family or the children of the poor family, since she does not know how to improve, others will not waste their minds on discipline.
But this contempt deeply stabbed Yin Ru, she temporarily restrained her soul, sat beside her and heard the strings of the slender hands of the daughters, the originally pleasant music, at this moment it was so harsh, that the corners of her forehead hurt, and her cheeks were hot.
"Yin Yin, what's wrong with you these days? But when I feel unwell, I will be so careless. But there was a voice of concern.
Liu Yinru raised her eyes to look at her friendly and friendly sister Liu Wuniang, and forced a smile: "Ah Yin is ashamed, tired Sister is worried, it's not that she is unwell, it's just that she ......" She wanted to speak and stopped: "Sister still don't ask." ”
Wu Niang has always disliked to force others, and she also knows that some of her aunt's actions are quite inappropriate, but she only thinks that her sister is blamed and worried, and it is not good to ask at this time, so she only softly persuades: "If there is anything difficult, you may as well tell me, I can help, and naturally spare no effort." ”
But you can't help me...... No one but myself could help me. Liu Yinru thought so in her heart, but she smiled at Wu Niang with gratitude.
Before the end of a piano lesson, she was interrupted by Cao Yuan's sudden arrival, she first bowed to the piano master, and said: "There is something important, I need Qi Niang and the slave to go to Xuxiao Hall." ”
These words undoubtedly lifted Liu Yinru's spirits, and regardless of the sadness and indignation caused by the difference between her concubines, she stared at the surprised and inexplicable Seventh Sister with her eyes, and Cao Yuan, who was obviously worried, and finally couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?"
Liu Qiniang is suspicious, thinking that her grandmother has always attached importance to learning and moral education, and she has never interrupted her granddaughters in the past, but I don't know why today? But she has always been taught by the Xiao family to be steady and cautious, and she didn't rush to ask at this time, she only bowed to the pianist, and was about to leave with Cao Yuan, who knew that Jiuniang, who was also puzzled but not as steady as Qi Niang, couldn't help it, and asked: "Ah Yuan, but what happened, why did grandmother let the seventh sister go to Xuxiao Hall at this time, I don't worry, Mo Ruo is also with the seventh sister?" ”
Cao Yuan was helpless, so she explained: "Jiuniang continues to listen, don't worry, it's the Queen Mother who wants to edict Qiniang to enter the palace." ”
Why is the Queen Mother's edict Qi Niang entering the palace?! Liu Yin was surprised, could it be that her mother-in-law was so busy that she became a bamboo basket to fetch water, and the marriage of the fourth sister was not successful, but it fell on the head of the seventh sister? This is also too unexpected, the seventh sister is only ten years old, and she can only marry if she gets thirteen, but Wang Qilang is the age of the crown, and he is the only son of the Yuan family, where can he wait for three years and five years?
After all, she was still a child, Liu Yinru couldn't hold her breath at this time, and interjected and asked abruptly: "What about the fourth sister?" ”
Cao Yuan glanced at Yin Ru, of course, she also had doubts in her heart, but since it was the little lady who opened her mouth to inquire, and in front of many outsiders, she couldn't ignore it, and only replied: "Siniang was also edicted together." ”
Liu Qi Niang's heart was beating like a beat, and she became more and more sure that it was Wang Liu's marriage that changed, but she couldn't figure out how this matter implicated Qi Niang, but let Wu Niang stay out of the matter.
But she also had too much to pay attention to at this time, the opportunity was fleeting, she had been planning for such a long time, but at this moment, no matter what was unexpected, she had to fight.
So Liu Yinru waited for Qi Niang to leave, not after a while, she took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, quietly withdrew from the school, only a maid with her, although this maid was chosen by Qiao's family, but was also enveloped by Yinru, and Yinru did not disobey Qiao's on the surface, the maid usually did not do much to obstruct Yinru's words and deeds, at this time she only thought that the little master was going to "change clothes", as usual did not talk much, until she found out that it was in the direction of Xu Xiaotang, she was suspicious, but she was about to ask, but saw on the other side of the road, a group of several people turned out.
However, Liu Yinru had already shouted "Fourth Sister" and walked over there quickly, and the maidservant had no choice but to give up.
In addition to Liu Zhen, there are also eleven mothers, she got rid of Xiao Xiaojiu's entanglement as usual today, and went to Fucuiwu to get close to Ah Zhen like a relieved person, at this time the two sisters who are very different in age are chatting and laughing, how can they come to invite people, since they reported to the queen mother's edict, Liu Zhendeng changed color, but according to the quality of Eleven Niang, it is not so much doubting and worrying, but more like grief and resentment, clenching her fists all the way, until she was called by Liu Yinru, she subconsciously returned to normal.
"Fourth sister, do you know why the Queen Mother is here?" Liu Yinru asked anxiously.
Seeing that Ah Hao seemed to be perfunctory, Eleven Niang replied quickly: "According to the report, the chamberlain claimed that the Queen Mother had a sudden nightmare the day before yesterday, and after waking up, she felt chest tightness and headache, and she couldn't sleep peacefully at night, and she was in a trance during the day. ”
Of course, this is a retelling of the words, and at this time, Xiao Xiaojiu's "completion" is more "strong" and "famous", so it is not strange to be able to repeat this is obviously not something that she can fully understand at her age.
"Fourth sister, can you not go......" After hearing this, Liu Yinru was quite anxious and worried.
Eleven Niang had already guessed her next strategy, and she didn't feel surprised in her heart, of course Liu Zhen didn't understand why Yin was anxious, but she was not in the mood to pursue these trivialities at this time, and only said: "The Queen Mother's edict, how can she disobey?" Even Yin Ru was troubled, and urged: "The inner servant is in a hurry to pass on the edict, and he is waiting in Xuxiao Hall at this time, and the two little ladies can't delay." Liu Yinru was "hesitating", seeing that Siniang was going away in spite of it, and Eleven Niang followed closely behind, she seemed to be dissuaded, but she was finally stopped by the maid who noticed that something was wrong.
"Little lady, don't do much, it's a sin to delay the queen mother's misfortune...... This matter has nothing to do with the little lady, but the piano lesson teaches, today the little lady has been dissatisfied, if you quit halfway, carefully the lady heard about the punishment. ”
So Liu Yinru "had to" be stunned and sent Siniang around Xuxiaotang, but no matter how the maid persuaded her to return to class quickly, she only turned a deaf ear, pretending to be worried and hesitant, but she was calculating the time all the time in her heart - even if she had to fight, of course, she couldn't directly debunk Qiao's conspiracy in front of the palace attendants, wouldn't she be hated by the Queen Mother? Moreover, the success or failure of the marriage between the fourth sister and Wang Qilang has nothing to do with her, her fundamental purpose is not to "save" the fourth sister, but to hope that the situation will deteriorate further, so as to prove that Qiao's intentions are ill-intentioned!
Since the queen mother has made decisions and actions, this matter cannot be reversed in any case, even if the grandmother knows that Qiao's plan is in the future, she will not disobey the queen mother, as long as the result remains unchanged, of course, the queen mother will not pursue her such a concubine who has exposed Qiao's family on a small scale, but grandmother is bound to be angry and persecuted by Qiao's instigation of the queen mother, so that she can't explain in front of her father.
The rest of the sisters may be ignorant, but she can see clearly, because of the death of the mother, the father has a grudge against the grandmother, if it weren't for the fact that over the years, the grandmother has treated the fourth sister and San Lang well, but I am afraid that even this superficial harmony will not be maintained!
Although Aya treats Qiao's coldly, he seems to be dissatisfied with his grandmother because of the feeding, and for three years, he has not been in contact with his uncle, but he is quite close to his father...... After all, the grandmother is an elder, and the father and Aya are afraid of filial piety, so they don't dare to do anything.
Liu Yinru knows very well that with her being a daughter and being in a situation, it is impossible to seek the protection of her father and Aye, and the only one who can compete with Qiao's is her grandmother!
She must, seize this only opportunity, to win her grandmother's pity, even if it is used by her grandmother to suppress Qiao's family, it is beneficial and harmless.
Therefore, when Liu Yinru silently calculated enough time for the chamberlain to lead the fourth and seventh sisters to the edict, she "finally" made up her mind, and stomped her feet with exaggeration: "No, I have to stop this." ”
The maid was dumbfounded, when she tried her best to stop the little master, she woke up and should go back to Jinhuayuan for help, she couldn't figure out the beginning and end of this matter, only felt that the little lady acted very unusually, and the only way to do it was to return to the lady in time.
