Xiao Qinxue covered her head with a quilt, and her tears of jealousy and hatred wet the pillow, she was unwilling to be trampled under Ling Zhiqiao's feet like this, Zhao Qiyue, a fool, actually agreed to Ling Zhiqiao's proposal, if it really came to pass, then even this ugly woman with a matchmaker's mole could be a level higher than her.

Although Jiang Dawei is a bastard, after all, he is also the son-in-law of the prime minister of the dynasty, who will dare to laugh at Zhao Qiyue when he goes out in the future, Jiang Xiaohou's wife is not something anyone can laugh at.

What is she Xiao Qinxue? The title of the first beauty in the capital is now undeserved, and even her father began to dislike her, and for this niece who suddenly ran away, he didn't even kiss his own daughter.

Xiao Qinxue exposed her head from the quilt again, wiped her tears, and remembered Lu's voice outside the door: "Qinxue, let Ling'er bring you a bowl of sweet soup for your mother, how can you do it without eating." ”

"Don't eat, don't eat." Xiao Qinxue shouted.

Although she shouted not to eat, she was indeed a little hungry and panicked, the Lu family knew her daughter best, and when she lost her temper with herself since she was a child, she could only hold on for a while, how could she be willing to be hungry herself?

Lu, who pushed the door in, motioned to the maid Ling'er to put the sweet soup on the table and said, "You have lost weight from hunger and become a yellow-faced woman, what's the good thing?" It's not cheap yet, that little goblin! ”

Seeing that Xiao Qinxue still didn't get up, Lu walked to the side of the bed and saw Xiao Qinxue's eyes red and swollen from crying, which made her feel distressed.

"Or, for the mother, go to the palace and beg the queen?"

Xiao Qin Xueteng got up, and said with joy on her face: "Didn't my mother say that it was inconvenient to ask the queen mother?" ”

"For you, I want my mother's life, and my mother has to go!" Lu said helplessly

"Mother, you are really my mother, are you going to the palace to ask the queen to choose me as the crown princess?

"Otherwise, do you still want to marry the second prince Twilight Yunhan!

"Hmph, I just don't choose the second prince, and I don't want Ling Zhiqiao to marry him, if my mother can help me become the crown princess, I will definitely repair her!" Xiao Qinxue got out of bed, sat down at the table and began to drink sweet soup while talking angrily.

"Don't be too anxious, let Wei Niang think about the rhetoric of entering the palace, you are waiting carefully at home during this time, okay?"

"I don't go out in the house every day, but how can I make friends with other noble girls, they will isolate me after a long time." Xiao Qinxue said reluctantly.

"Xue'er, what kind of noble girl do you still befriend, this time the matter is already very good without condemning you and Xie Xiaoyu, in the future, you will have to go to the Women's Virtue Academy, and at the beginning of next month, the Prime Minister's Mansion will marry Zhao Qiyue with a sedan chair, you still have to think about what gift to give!"

Xiao Qinxue was stunned, threw the soup spoon into the bowl and said, "You mean that Jiang Dawei really wants to marry Zhao Qiyue." ”

Lu nodded and said, "Is there anything strange about this?" You didn't make a plan, but instead helped Zhao Qiyue, but after listening to what happened to your mother, I doubt that it is possible for this Zhao Qiyue to collude with Ling Zhiqiao, just to let Jiang Xiaohou wear this set. ”

Xiao Qinxue pondered for a moment, motioned to the maid Ling'er to remove the sweet soup she had drunk, and then said to Ling'er: "You go to the Dream Garden to listen to the movement, and ask who is there?" ”

After Xiao Qinxue and the Lu family were left in the room, Xiao Qinxue continued: "I don't think it's possible? I watched Ling Zhiqiao drink the drugged wine, Zhao Qiyue didn't have the courage to betray your daughter, she actually liked the second prince, and wanted me to match her. ”

"Mother, why did you say that she agreed to marry that Jiang Dawei, isn't it just that she was kissed a few times, if we don't say it, who can know?"

Lu Shi Shu said: "You are stupid, if she doesn't take this opportunity to find someone to marry, who can marry her with this face, even if her father is the Taiwei Mansion Yin, what can you do, you are different, the old man holds the military power, but the person His Majesty the Emperor values the most, if you didn't belong to the second prince, the threshold of the General's Mansion would have been broken by the propose." ”

Xiao Qinxue nodded, feeling that what Lu said was not unreasonable.

"Miss, I'm back." The maid Ling'er said outside the door.

"Come in! Did you find out who came to the General's Mansion today? Xiao Qinxue asked.

"Miss, I happened to meet Mama Qin when I went to the Dream Garden from the small kitchen, she was walking to the door of the house with four noblely dressed young ladies, and Ling'er didn't know her, but when Mama Qin finished sending off the guests, I went to the gate of the house to ask for the visitor's post, and I got it back, please take a look."

Xiao Qinxue took the visitor post that the maid Ling'er brought back, and after reading it in turn, she threw it to the Lu family, and then smiled contemptuously: "I didn't expect them to be so close now." ”

Lu picked it up and said, "What? You don't care about these people, but I want to see who they are. ”

She read as she looked: "Zhang Liu'er of the Taiwei Mansion, Li Daiyun of the Imperial Doctor's Mansion, Zhou Yunyan of the Ministry of Works, and Yang Qian of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Officials. ”

Lu Shi felt very surprised after reading it, and she asked Xiao Qinxue: "Could it be that Ling Zhiqiao is dating them now?" ”

"Since it says on the prayer post, it should be." Xiao Qinxue said disapprovingly, and began to tidy up her slightly messy hair.

"I really underestimate this little goblin, it's very powerful compared to her mother, Ling'er, what else do you want to inquire about?" Lu asked.

"The slave maid also heard that this Ling girl came back from the side gate of the Dream Garden, and was sent back by the guards beside the second prince. It seems that she has been in the house since she returned, and then the four young ladies have come one after another. ”

"The slave and maid have inquired so much!"

"Mother, what's the use of asking this, let's think about how to help my daughter talk when you enter the palace as soon as possible!"

Lu sighed heavily, and thought in his heart, if he really wanted to threaten the queen mother with what happened before, it would be a dangerous move, and there was almost no chance of winning, but for Xiao Qinxue, what could he do? I had to give it a try.

Xiao Qinxue didn't know what Lu was thinking, and she didn't know that Lu made this decision to die or die.

She just thought that she wanted to be the crown princess soon.

In the dream garden, Mama Qin sent away the four girls for Ling Zhiqiao, and when she came back into the house, she saw that Ling Zhiqiao was already asleep leaning on the bedside.

Mama Qin counted: "Do you really think you're cured?" And crazy with them, hey! As soon as she finished speaking, Ling Zhiqiao muttered, "Mama, don't scold me." Then she rolled over and didn't wake up and continued to sleep.

Mama Qin was startled by her, she walked to the bed and looked, Ling Zhiqiao was indeed not awake, Mama Qin thought to herself, how can she know that I will talk about her again if she is not awake?

She couldn't help but smile when she saw Ling Zhiqiao's sleeping appearance, this girl is really a big heart, and she can sleep.

The next morning, after Ling Zhiqiao woke up, she felt much stronger than yesterday, except for the pain in her wrist, she was able to walk on the ground.

In order to prevent General Xiao from seeing the injury on her arm, Ling Zhiqiao had already removed the whiteboard tied to her arm, and she carefully pinched the bones at her wrist, fortunately, there was no real fracture, probably a slight bone crack, she used her own homemade plaster to apply it thickly, and then tied a circle of soft cloth on the outside to fix it, and then hid her hand in the wide sleeve, which did not let her uncle Xiao Qian find out.

Fortunately, the girls who visited her yesterday were all attracted to Zhang Liuer's attention, and none of them found that her left wrist was injured.

The little guy at the door entered the dream garden to pass the word to Mama Qin, and Zhao Xueli, the head of the household, and his daughter Zhao Qiyue came to visit, and they are now waiting in the main hall, and the lord asks the young lady to come over.

After Mama Qin told Ling Zhiqiao, she was a little worried: "Your arm looks like this, won't it be exposed in front of the master for a while?" I'm not as easy to deceive as the master, I just don't ask you, does the young lady still have to tell the master that she suddenly fainted due to the wind and cold, so she dropped her hand? ”

Ling Zhiqiao was worried about how to explain to her uncle when she was discovered, and was reminded by Mama Qin, but said happily: "Mama, how do you know that I fell, I thought Mama Qin didn't see it?" Hehe! ”

"The old slave is not blind, are you afraid that we will see it, so you secretly tear off a whiteboard and throw it into the bed, thinking that I don't know, right?"

Ling Zhiqiao walked up to Mama Qin and said embarrassedly, "Isn't Qiao'er afraid that Mama will worry?" ”

Mama Qin hugged Ling Zhiqiao and said, "Miss, you have to be careful in the future, be careful, as long as you leave the house, the old slave's heart will be carried as soon as you leave the house, when you come back, when will you be able to return to your chest." ”

"Got it, obey the order, Jo'er must be careful in the future." Mama Qin couldn't smile bitterly when she was made by Ling Zhiqiao.

"Let's go! Don't make guests wait too long? ”

Ling Zhiqiao and Mama Qin came to the main hall, and the people were serving tea to Zhao Xueli and Zhao Qiyue, the head of the household.

"Qiao'er, this is Lord Zhao, the head of the household department, hurry up and salute."

"Lord Zhao, Qiao'er is sick, she is a little late, and she forgot to forgive me!" After Ling Zhiqiao saluted Zhao Xueli, she nodded slightly to Zhao Qiyue, and Zhao Qiyue also saluted her in return, but she was no longer the same attitude towards Ling Zhiqiao as before.

Ling Zhiqiao then sat down next to Xiao Qian, and Xiao Qianle said: "Qiao'er, today Lord Zhao specially brought Miss Zhao to thank you, if you hadn't resolved this matter, Miss Zhao's reputation would have been ruined." ”

Without waiting for Ling Zhiqiao to speak, Zhao Xueli, the head of the household, opened his mouth: "It's also strange that the little girl doesn't know how to protect herself, and let that little bastard in the Prime Minister's Mansion take advantage of our Yue'er, but although this marriage is a temporary countermeasure for Miss Ling, it is still the best policy to weigh the pros and cons!" ”

"General Xiao, the old man doesn't hide it from you, just because of this mole on the little girl's lips, the old man has also been haggard all these years, putting aside the marriage with the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yue'er said that Miss Ling can remove her mole, the old man doesn't know whether it's true or not, so I want to ask in person to understand."

When Zhao Xueli, the head of the household department, spoke, Ling Zhiqiao secretly looked at Lord Zhao in front of him, he was not as clean as his godfather Zhao Tingfeng, but as far as an official of this level was concerned, this Zhao Xueli was thin, and he was in charge of all the land taxes in the dynasty, so he could be regarded as a fat official! Just looking at this face, it probably won't be a corrupt official, Ling Zhiqiao deduced in her heart, thinking that she would wait for them to leave for a while and then ask her uncle Xiao Qian for verification.

Ling Zhi Qiao smiled gently: "Lord Zhao is too worried, Qiao Er can indeed remove the mole on Sister Zhao's lips, but..."
