The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

The afternoon sun shone slantly on the palace walls.

Xue Mingyue was led by Xie Lang and walked forward for a long time. The shadows under her feet kept entangled and separated. She was so shocked that her eyes widened. She couldn't break away from his hand, so she had to take a deep breath and said: " Lord Marquis, the female family members are going to the back of the palace to see the Queen!"

How dare he, a foreigner, dare to enter and leave the inner court so boldly when the female family members go?

Xie Lang nodded and chuckled: "I know."

"So I'm just sending you to the entrance of the palace. You don't have to worry if I don't go in."

His tone was too matter-of-fact, as if he didn't take it seriously at all.

Has this person taken the wrong medicine recently? He keeps thinking like this all the time! Xue Mingyue suddenly became angry.

Acting so unscrupulously, it was no wonder that he would be arrested and imprisoned by the old emperor for treason. She immediately felt a strong sense of urgency, fearing that if the other party made a wrong move, she would be separated from her head. .

A banquet for the officials was arranged in Huayang Hall.

Xie Lang insisted on sending her to the back hall. Xue Mingyue couldn't shirk it, so she could only bite the bullet and follow him forward despite the probing eyes of many people around her. Even the chamberlain who was leading the way turned to take a look. .

Fortunately, the journey is not long.

Xue Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief, and angrily took her nervous and sweaty palms out of his hands, raised her eyes and looked at him steadily, and urged: "The Marquis will be sent here, please come back."

"This is not far from the front hall. If you need anything, just send someone to find me."

Xie Lang felt that his palms were a little empty. He saw that the hairpin on her bun was a little swaying, so he stretched out his hand to help her. As soon as he raised his hand, Xue Mingyue subconsciously took two steps back and looked at her warily. Looking at him.

Those light-colored eyes held a tiny sparkle, but their gaze was defensive and cold.

For a moment, their eyes met, and the atmosphere was stagnant.

At this time, the chamberlain who was leading the way suddenly ran over and said with a smile: "Master Marquis, the women will soon enter the palace to meet the Queen. At this moment, the only thing missing is the wife. Master Marquis, do you think..."

"Then I'll bother you, father-in-law."

A trace of annoyance flashed across Xie Lang's eyes, and his thin, straight lips pursed slightly, and he could only say, "We'll see you later."

Xue Mingyue looked away without any nostalgia and left directly.

Xie Lang was left standing there with a wry smile and shook his head.

·

When courtiers meet the queen, they need to be arranged according to their rank.

The Marquis of Dingyuan holds the second rank title, and Xue Mingyue is married to Xie Lang. Even though she has not yet applied for a title from the emperor, her status is still higher than that of most of the courtiers present, so she stands in the forefront this time.

Enough to put it beyond the reach of many people.

The eunuch's shrill voice sounded: "Enter the palace——"

Xue Mingyue gathered her emotions and walked slowly behind Mrs. Zhenguo in front of her. Her eyes never missed her for a moment. After entering the palace, everyone knelt down to worship the Queen. She didn't get up until the Queen called out and thanked her again.

There was not a single fault to be found throughout the entire process.

Be polite, dignified and generous.

The Queen, who was sitting at the head of the throne, couldn't help but nod secretly in her heart, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be restrained. I just called you here today to have a casual chat with you about home affairs. Is everything going well at home recently?"

Naturally, everyone said yes in unison.

Xue Mingyue blended in and was not conspicuous among them. In her previous life, the palace had to allow female relatives to enter the palace during festivals and festivals. She was already very good at dealing with this. As long as she was not called, others would not notice her.

It's just that Mrs. Hou is not ranked at all in the eyes of the queen.

"Mrs. Marquis Dingyuan, I heard that Princess Cen had an allergic reaction to something she accidentally ate at home two days ago. She also specially invited the imperial doctor to go to the mansion for diagnosis and treatment. I wonder if she is still well now?"

Xue Mingyue: "?"

As soon as the words fell, the whole audience was in an uproar.

Everyone immediately looked at her in unison.

All kinds of envious, gloating, jealous and resentful eyes fell on her.

Xue Mingyue sighed softly, and had to step out of the queue slowly, bowing and saying: "Thanks to the Empress for your concern, my grandmother's health has improved a lot and she can already walk. I also had two bowls of japonica rice porridge for lunch today."

The queen nodded and said, "It'll be fine if nothing happens."

Suddenly, the conversation changed and he asked with a smile: "I heard it was that boy Jinglan who sent you here just now?"

The glare on her back suddenly became more intense.

"..." Xue Mingyue secretly cursed Xie Lang in her heart. At this moment, she could only lower her eyes in shame, "My wife enters the palace only rarely. The Marquis was worried that my lack of etiquette would offend the queen, so he gave me an extra paragraph. road."

Seeing that the relationship between the two was very strong and there was no gap between them, the queen was happy to see the success and revealed the matter with a smile.

After talking for a while, the queen left the apse.

Xue Mingyue's face was calm, the tips of her fingers hidden in her sleeves trembled slightly, and she quietly wiped away the cold sweat on her palms. Just as she was about to find a place to sit down and relax, she heard someone beside her say sourly:

"Some people's methods are just extraordinary, and they actually coaxed the Marquis into spinning around."

"You also said that the evil servant harmed the master. Who knows what the truth is?"

"Nothing like this has ever happened to someone before she got married. How come she caused so much trouble in the family as soon as she got married?"

...

Xue Mingyue raised her eyes and saw that most of the people who spoke were girls from various families.

Before she and Xie Lang were tricked into sharing the same bed, he had just passed the imperial examination with his own martial arts skills, and had just been appointed the lieutenant colonel of the Jinwu Guard by His Majesty himself. He was high-spirited and had a bright future.

There are countless young ladies in Yongji City who want to marry him.

No matter what, she, the unpopular daughter of the Minister of Etiquette's family, should not be able to reach such a high level, but she was the one who ended up marrying him. After what happened, Xie Lang still married her as a wife. How could they not be resentful?

Xue Mingyue knew that she couldn't explain this matter to others, so she had no choice but to ignore these words.

After all, these are words that I have long been tired of hearing.

She found a seat and sat down, calmly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

Naturally, the ladies nearby had no reason to rush to talk to a junior like her. They chatted with acquaintances, and the ladies brought by each family also gathered together in twos and threes.

The people from the Xue family who came to the banquet this time were Mrs. Lin and their youngest daughter Xue Rou.

Because of the previous incident, many people thought that the Xue family had a bad family tradition, so the place where the two of them were was also empty. Xue Mingyue, who was alone not far away, seemed to be in the same situation.

The two of them were embarrassed and angry, looking at Xue Mingyue with gloomy expressions.

"Xue Mingyue, you enter the palace as soon as you enter the palace, and you actually have the nerve to ask Brother Jinglan to send you here!"

At this time, a shout suddenly sounded in the hall.

Xue Mingyue paused for a moment, raised her eyes and saw the Ninth Princess in gold and jade running over angrily, with disgust on her face, pointing at her and cursing: "Is your face thicker than the city wall? Marquis Dingyuan The face of the government will be completely disgraced by you!"

"..."

Everyone knows that the Ninth Princess loves Mr. Xie Xiaohou.

Seeing her coming to trouble Xue Mingyue, the ladies in the palace suddenly started to gloat.

Two of them secretly exchanged glances in the crowd.

Today they must make Xue Mingyue faceless again!

Xue Mingyue calmly stood up and bowed: "I have met the Ninth Princess. I don't understand what the princess means. It is not what I asked for the Marquis to send me off, but the Marquis is worried that I will not be polite enough to offend the nobles. If the princess does not believe it, how can I do it?" Go and ask the Marquis in person."

Unexpectedly, the ninth princess became even more angry when she heard this.

"You dare to talk back to me when this princess is talking!"

"If you hadn't been entangled with brother Jinglan, how could he have married you, a daughter of a small family who doesn't understand etiquette! This charming monster who only knows how to use dirty tricks actually coaxed brother Jinglan to join you even when he entered the palace. , you should be dipped into a pig cage!"

As she spoke, she raised her hand as if to hit someone.

"Princess, be careful!"

Xue Mingyue's eyes were cold, he raised his face and raised his hand to hold her wrist.

Staring at the Ninth Princess intently, he said coldly: "Princess, every word and deed represents the royal family's face. She wants to harm people without any basis. Do you want all the people in the world to say that Princess, you are not caring about human life?"
