She was too lazy to clean up after dressing up as a villain heroine

"I swear……"

"Don't swear." Qiao Zhenzhen pursed her lips, "I don't like hearing people swear."

Xu Qingjie closed his mouth, awkwardly, not knowing how to express his feelings.

I was so anxious that I wanted to cut open a piece of my heart and show it to her!

"Senior brother, all this you said is based on one thing, which is that the prince and I can't get along." She paused and continued, "Have you ever thought about it, even if I like him? Things were just as my father said, and I never thought about reconciling with him."

Xu Qingjie was stunned, "But, didn't the junior sister say that... the prince has someone in mind?"

Did she say that?

She talked so much that she even forgot that she really shouldn't have talked to Xu Qingjie before.

"Even if he has a crush on someone, I'm still happy with him!"

Qiao Zhenzhen is pretty good at playing the role of a spoiled and good-natured daughter or an arrogant young lady in front of her parents, but playing the role of a love brain is a bit stiff.

"But from the look of my junior sister, she doesn't seem to like the prince very much."

Xu Qingjie was not led by her.

He trusts his feelings more.

"Senior brother, you are making people feel very embarrassed when you act like this." Qiao Zhenzhen simply avoided the topic and could not get entangled with him any longer. "For men, this kind of thing is just a romantic affair, but for us women, it is nothing more than a romantic affair." It's fatal. My father is confused. Don't follow him and say wait. You should study your books carefully, get your reputation, become an official, and marry a beloved woman in the future. That's the serious thing."

After saying these words, Qiao Zhenzhen turned and left.

Xu Qingjie shouted from behind her: "Little junior sister, you are my beloved woman."

Qiao Zhenzhen didn't respond, let alone stop. Instead, she quickened her pace.

She closed her eyes and let out a long sigh.

……

On November 20th, the Prince's canonization ceremony was held.

At dawn, Qiao Zhenzhen dressed properly and entered the palace with her parents.

All the civil and military officials were waiting in front of the Fengxian Palace, while the female relatives gathered in the West Nuan Pavilion of Kunning Palace, waiting for the prince to come to Kunning Palace to salute the queen after receiving the treasure book in front.

Qiao Zhenzhen looked around at the female relatives, and there was one thing that Wu was right about. The Queen Empress said that she was really important in letting her come. Due to the limited space, the female relatives present today have the lowest rank of the third grade of their husband's family.

There were even fewer juniors who could attend, so Qiao Zhenzhen stood out among a group of elderly female relatives.

When she entered the palace, the eldest princess, who had had a dispute with her, was accompanied by a gracefully dressed woman, who was sitting quietly on the lower left side of the child queen. She is slightly plump and has a middle-aged appearance. She must be the concubine of the eldest princess and the second prince, Concubine Tang Xian.

There is also a palace concubine sitting on the lower right. She looks to be in her thirties and looks extremely beautiful, but she still looks very respectful to the queen. There is no favorite concubine in this palace, only the queen is the dominant one.

The eldest princess had already given her several unfriendly glances since she entered the door.

Another thing that caught her eye was a woman whose face was covered with red gauze. She had a married woman's hairstyle, but with bangs covering her forehead. Generally, those who wore bangs were unmarried women, and married women would wear their hair. Comb it upward to expose your forehead.

It was really weird to wear a veil when entering the palace. Just when Qiao Zhenzhen guessed her identity, Wu pulled her arm and came closer and said: "Don't look at the Lord Shenghua County. There was a wealthy businessman's daughter who looked at her a few times before. My eyes were blinded by her. You haven't been in the capital recently, and your mother has forgotten to tell you that the Lord of Shenghua County has contracted a strange infectious disease. His whole body has rashes and ulcers. After taking medicine for several months, the condition is slightly under control. , they said they were no longer contagious, but they heard that their face was ruined, so they kept wearing a veil.”

"Blinding other people's eyes? She is too arrogant, no one will care about her?" Qiao Zhenzhen frowned.

Wu shook her head, "After all, it's the royal family. Ordinary people can't fight, so they have to admit that they are unlucky."

As the saying goes, if the people don't promote it, the officials won't investigate it.

Not to mention fighting against the royal family, even a small county magistrate is not something that ordinary people can afford, but this kind of behavior is really disgusting. When the master drugged her, it would be better to just kill her.

Qiao Zhenzhen looked away.

But County Lord Shenghua's eyes were always staring at the mother and daughter, almost condensing into real swords.

Over there, Queen Tong waved to Mrs. Wu, who came forward with Qiao Zhenzhen to say hello.

After kneeling in obeisance, Mrs. Wu saluted the women on the left and right of the Child Queen, "Greetings to Concubine Xian and Concubine Shu."

Qiao Zhenzhen followed Wu and bowed.

Today, the Child Empress is wearing a robe and a phoenix crown with complicated jewelry, and her attire is particularly grand.

She still smiled dignifiedly and kindly, and asked Qiao Zhenzhen to step forward and take her hand. On her snow-white wrist, she was wearing the jade bracelet she had given her when she entered the palace last time. "Listen to your mother, you Now I pray for the whole family in Baoguo Temple, and I have to stay there for a year?"

"Yes, the Queen." Qiao Zhenzhen said generously, "I have to stay here until June next year and then go home."

"Are you still used to living and eating in the temple?"

Qiao Zhenzhen replied: "I wasn't used to it at first, but I got better after living there for half a month." She looked honest and courteous.

Concubine Zhang Shu, who was sitting on the right side, giggled and said: "I have always heard that the daughter of Mo Ge's hometown is very beautiful and charming. When I saw her today, she was indeed well-deserved. If it hadn't been for your majesty's marriage, I would have gone to ask for it for Yi'er." .”

The Yinger mentioned by Concubine Zhang Shu is the third prince Chu Ying. He is sixteen this year and has not yet had a principal concubine.

Qiao Zhenzhen knew that she was joking. As the third prince, he was "unworthy" to marry her, the daughter of a second-rank official with real power.

"She is very good-looking, and she looks 80% like Mr. Mo Ge." Concubine Tang Xian was joking from the side, her smile was a bit honest.

Qiao Zhenzhen pursed her lips and smiled, showing just the right amount of shyness as a little girl.

Empress Tong did not answer the two people's words and asked Wu, "Has the wedding date with the Han family been decided?"

Wu replied: "It will be scheduled for August next year."

Queen Tong smiled and nodded, "August is not bad. The weather is neither cold nor hot then, so the bride doesn't feel uncomfortable." She also smiled and said that it was the hottest time of the year when she got married, and she wore her wedding dress one day. Covering their bodies with heat rash, everyone laughed together for a while.

At this time, Mrs. Han from the Duke's Mansion came up with her two daughters-in-law from the first and second bedrooms to pay their respects to the Queen.

The old lady was leaning on a faucet and looking very energetic.

The last time she saw Mrs. Han up close, Qiao Zhenzhen was still in a state of soul.

She is a typical image of a woman at the helm of a large family. She values ​​interests and knows how to advance and retreat. Such understanding people are the best.

When Qiao Zhenzhen gets along with others, she should pay less attention to the sincerity and just look good on the surface.

I'm just afraid of some idiots who don't look at the overall situation and just want to follow my heart.

For example... Lin.

From the way Lin looked at her, Qiao Zhenzhen sensed hostility, but it didn't matter. As long as her value was greater than Lin's, the old lady would suppress her.

Bless her father, he will live a long life, bless Emperor Kande, his "love" for his father will last forever, and he will live a long life!

Mrs. Han herself was born in the House of Marquis Wu. The generation of Duke Ding was still in the period of Emperor Wu. Therefore, in terms of marriage, most of the choices were from well-matched families. However, in Han Zheng's father's generation, the situation changed. In order to keep a low profile, only the eldest son was chosen. A low-income civil servant family.

After so many years of development, the Lin family has the highest official position. A brother of the Lin family has been transferred from the third-grade capital to the salt transportation envoy. It is a fat job, and he still has the glory of the Dingguo government to some extent, but in terms of power There is no comparison with Mo Qingyang in this aspect.

However, the Lin family has been operating in Yuhang for many years and is already a big family.
