Come on, Your Highness

In Pinhuatang, facing many joking looks, the two shy girls dare not stay any longer.So Princess Liyang showed kindness, and immediately asked He Lingshan to lead her to the waterside pavilion with many young ladies.

Since the Lord Wang's family and Xi'anbo Mansion are both there, although everyone wanted to discuss a few words, they changed the subject and chatted with other people.

Princess Xinhu said: "I recognize all the princes, but who is the young master next to the eldest prince, I am a little unfamiliar."

Princess Rong An held tea and smiled: "Who else is there, isn't He Erlang? Mrs. He, don't you think so?"

The eldest lady said respectfully, "It's him."

"Ah, that's the youngest Master Xie Yuan in our Daqi. I heard that the emperor has a heart for him. I don't know if it's true?" As soon as Princess Xinhu finished speaking, several wives showed their heads one after another. With a surprised expression, Qi Qi looked towards Duke Wei's mansion.

The eldest lady has no son, He Xichao and He Lingshan have a good relationship, and this nephew is considered a half-son, so she can't help saying to Yourong: "I dare not say that, but my nephew is really good at learning, every time the exam papers They have all arrived in front of the imperial court, so they must be valued by the emperor. He is preparing for the next spring show, and has the intention to rush to Huiyuan, and now the most important thing in the mansion is his study."

Although she was humble on the face, she was quite proud in her words.If there is no accident, the first-ranked Huiyuan will be the number one scholar after passing the palace examination, and this is Xieyuan, isn't it the third yuan and the first place?

Even the silent Mrs. Song of Liang Guogong's mansion moved her eyes slightly, and exchanged a glance with her daughter-in-law beside her, feeling a little happy in her heart.

The number one scholar is already rare, and it is even more difficult to find one of the three yuan and the first. If this is the case, he will be entrusted with the emperor's heavy responsibility, and the future is indeed boundless.

Da furen glanced at Mrs. Song almost invisibly, and found that the latter nodded slightly, with a relaxed expression, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Naturally, she also said this to Liang Guogong's mansion.

The second lady and the old lady next to each other exchanged glances, each drinking tea in silence.

At this time, someone said with emotion: "I don't care about whether the knowledge is good or not, but when I was standing there just now, you can remember his appearance. He looks really good, but he can be compared with these princes."

"Isn't it?" A strange lady said, "If you don't tell me, I'm still wondering who this young man is. With such a good looks, his mother must be a rare beauty, but I just can't remember who it is? "

Speaking of mother, the noble ladies in this flower hall all sneered.

One of the lady's side told her, "Sister Ming hasn't returned to Beijing for a long time, I'm afraid she has forgotten about it. Back then, the incident between Sanlang and a concubine in Duke Wei's mansion... was a sensation in the capital."

Then I heard a person sitting next to the second lady say: "This looks, of course I don't have to say, otherwise, how could He Sanlang be fascinated? By the way, I was lucky enough to meet this man at the Xieyuan table that day. Beautiful, really beautiful, gentle and gentle, with a soft tone, even over 30 years old, it still makes people worry, I can't help myself."

These words were very impolite, the Da Furen immediately darkened her face when she heard this, and said: "I'm just a concubine, I can't get on the stage, what do you have to say?"

"Hey, why can't I get on the stage? That day, this concubine sat beside Mrs. Li in an upright manner? She was the only one among the wives at the table... Also, Xie Yuanlang's mother, who lived in Wei Guogong Houses are always different."

As soon as these words came out, the lady's heart clicked, and she saw Mrs. Song pursed her lips and curled her lips, revealing the deep lines of the law, and her eyes were cold.

Mrs. Song is from all backgrounds, and she pays attention to the rules the most, and the most disrespectful thing is that there is no distinction between the concubine and the concubine. If Wei Guogong straightens the concubine's room, she will be able to make the two families of women stay away from each other forever.

"Is...is it true?" The people who were still watching the show suddenly showed astonishment.

The eldest lady has troubles and cannot tell, no matter whether Li Yuechan was forcibly dragged to the table by Mrs. Li that day, this concubine sitting in the group of wives is obviously an ignorant and arrogant person. He Xichao has such a mother. get tired.

The eldest lady regretted that she didn't send Li Yuechan back to An Yunxuan decisively that day, but went to the table instead.

"On a great day, you can't refute the righteous master's face, it's just this one time." Finally Mrs. He seized the opportunity to say something indifferent.

The eldest lady turned her head suddenly, and said coldly: "I still remember that the old lady went to call people over on purpose, and she wouldn't let her go if she wanted to leave! Naturally, she can only be manipulated by her submissive nature."

"Sister-in-law's words are wrong." The second lady wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said unhurriedly, "Who dared to show He Xi face at that time, alas, I was dispatched to the family temple." She smiled self-deprecatingly, as if everything was unspoken.

They were all idle people, and they smelled something unusual in a blink of an eye, and their eyes were full of excitement.

In order to pull He Xi back, Li Yuxi gave laxatives on the eve of the big exam. To her ears, it was an extremely stupid thing, so stupid that she couldn't believe it was done by a big lady.

Now that I think about it, there must be other reasons.

But after the second lady finished speaking, she closed her mouth and stopped speaking, which gave others too much room for imagination.

And Mrs. Song's complexion was already so dark that she couldn't look at it.

The eldest lady inadvertently glanced at it, seeing the calculating look between the old lady and the second lady, she suddenly realized.

This is to make He Xichao lose this marriage!He even threw the face of Duke Wei's mansion on the ground for people to trample on it!

Thinking of this, the eldest lady couldn't help being so angry that her chest felt tight, and because of their sinister intentions, she felt that the majestic Duke's mansion was simply smoky, and she didn't know what to say.Taking out a concubine as a joke for others, but they don't know that they themselves are also the laughing stock of others!

Could it be that besides He Xichao, there are no other juniors waiting to be married in Wei Guogong's mansion?

What about He Mingrui?With such a mother, who is willing to marry a good girl?He Lingyun, He Lingping, who wants to marry the two more particular girls?

The eldest lady originally thought that Li Yuxi acted reasonably, but now she was disappointed to find that this person was almost like her own mother-in-law, and her eyes only stayed in front of her eyes.

"You are young, you have achieved fame and fame, and it is normal to act biased. If you are young and inexperienced, there is no need to be too harsh." Suddenly Mrs. Song spoke. Fame, why should you bother about it?"

Probably no one thought that this old lady who was not very talkative would defend He Xichao, and they all showed surprise on their faces. No one knew that Mrs. Song stopped dating after the death of Mrs. Wei Guogong's original wife.

But only the lady's heart sank. These words seemed to be defending, but they were actually alienated.

It was still Princess Liyang who laughed and said: "Is there nothing else for everyone to talk about? It's too flattering to talk about a concubine who has been around for so long."

"I was wondering why this topic was changed here, but who knows if someone has cut it?" Princess Rong An looked around with cold eyes, and snorted.

Princess Qinghu also looked at the female relatives of Duke Wei's mansion with a smile that was not a smile, "He was a good-looking young man, and he was thinking about which girl in the family would be suitable, but now, he also stopped thinking about the incongruous mother. "

Who would send their daughter to serve a lowly concubine as long as they love the girl?Everyone responded one after another.

"Okay, okay, are you tired from sitting? The scenery is good today, and the weather is also suitable. Why don't you go outside and have a look. The banquet will start soon, so let's take a walk?" Princess Liyang stood up, and everyone left their seats one after another. , Talking and laughing in twos and threes and going out.

The eldest lady thought about it, and still wanted to fight for it, so she took two quick steps to follow Mrs. Song, and said with a smile: "Old lady, one cannot choose one's origin, but it's a pity that Chao is a righteous child who grew up reading the books of Confucius and Mencius. Yes, the most respectful rules. It was also my fault that day. I arranged the meeting. I didn’t like it. This child has been with the Duke. How can you know what happened in the backyard? You can ask Liang Guogong. .This kid, I can assure you, he has a good character, he doesn't mess with anything, and he can be entrusted to him for life."

Madam Song's earnest words and sincere eyes made Madam Song calm down and said: "When your mother-in-law was here, she often praised you for being a virtuous housekeeper. If he is your child, I will agree to this matter. But I believe you You won’t frame me either, so let’s discuss later.”

Mrs. Song patted Mrs. Madam's hand as she spoke, and walked forward with her daughter-in-law.

Da furen let out a breath, with a wry smile on her face, she turned her head to look at the two people who seemed to get what they wanted.

He said in his heart that if it was her child, how could Duke Wei's mansion allow those two people to be so presumptuous.

Mrs. Song supported her mother-in-law and said, "Mother, then He Xichao and Qian'er..."

"You can only listen to half of what you say. Let the concubine's room be ignored, but this family style is really uncomfortable." Mrs. Song said.

On the waterside pavilion by the lake, the sound of the piano is accompanied by the laughter of the girls.

They are all girls in the boudoir, and there are rarely so many opportunities to get together and play around.

Sitting in the gazebo, the sisters of the He family watched in amazement a reclining red plum tree appeared in Song Qian's pen.

"Sister Song, you draw really well, just like the real thing!" After Song Qian put down her pen, He Lingyun raised her hand and praised the plum blossom in front of her.

"I just have nothing to do to pass the time." Song Qian smiled modestly.

"Can my sister give it to me? I'll go back and frame it."

"As long as my sister likes, just take it."

He Lingyun handed the painting to He Lingping, then grabbed Song Qian's wrist, and said with a smile, "Sister Song is so kind, as long as she thinks that she and her sister will become a family immediately, Yun'er will be happy."

Song Qian couldn't help lowering her eyes slightly when she heard this, a blush appeared on her face, and said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense."

From time to time, Young Master Song told his younger sister how wonderful He Xichao was, which made Song Qian let go of her status grievances and slowly look forward to it, so she didn't mean to blame her.

But Mrs. Song Si who was at the side corrected her solemnly: "Miss He can't talk nonsense, it's all about nothing."

He Lingyun blinked her eyes, and asked in doubt: "But, it has been spread all over the house, saying that Second Brother and Sister Song are getting engaged?"

As soon as these words came out, anger appeared in the eyes of Mrs. Song Fourth, and Song Qian couldn't help but change her face.

Mrs. Song Si said dissatisfiedly: "Your manor is too careless, and such words can be spread indiscriminately. Could it be that our girls are determined?"

He Lingyun seemed to be taken aback, and said to He Lingping helplessly, "Third sister... I seem to have said something wrong."

He Lingping comforted in a low voice: "Second sister, don't panic, you are just telling the truth."

This made Song Qian's heart sink.

He Lingping only heard He Lingping continue to say: "And Aunt Li of An Yunxuan bought a lot of jewelry, saying that she would give Sister Song a meeting gift."

"What qualifications does an aunt like her have to give a meeting gift?" Mrs. Song Si was shocked and angry. She and Song Qian glanced at each other, feeling that things seemed a little bad.

But He Lingyun and He Lingping didn't dare to talk any more, but it was a pity to look at Song Qian quietly.

Fourth Madam Song wanted to take Song Qian to find the old lady to make decisions immediately, but it was not suitable now, so she comforted the sisters of the He family after thinking about it, and forced a smile: "You two sisters, then Aunt Li is He Xichao's biological mother, right? Don't know what it's like?"

"This..." The two sisters showed embarrassment on their faces, and He Lingyun said, "We don't have much contact with An Yunxuan, and we have never had contact with Aunt Li, so we really don't know what kind of person she is. But the second brother and Li Auntie is dependent on each other, when Auntie Li came in, mother didn't agree, so the second elder brother tried to find a way to keep her, otherwise he would go with him, he must be very filial to her."

"It's human nature to grow up to be big." Song Qian said softly.

He Lingyun lowered her eyes, and said meekly: "Sister Song said, it's just..."

Song Qian said with a smile: "Sister, if you have something to say, just say it."

"But I don't think it's good for my sister, and it's not good for my second brother."

"It's okay, it's just chatting, I won't say it." Mrs. Song Si said.

"Well, I've heard about this too. Whether it's true or not, my sister asked someone to ask, but don't let us leak it."

Song Qian nodded.

"It happened last year too. Aunt Li prepared two good-looking maids for my second elder brother..."

"What?" Mrs. Song Si was stunned, "He Xichao is so young and there are people in the house?"

No matter how well-mannered Song Qianrao was, she couldn't hold back a smile on her face.

"No, no." He Lingyun quickly shook her head, "Second elder brother is still young and hasn't married a wife yet, so naturally he disagrees, and someone took him away."

Even if not, this is too careless!

He Lingping added in a low voice: "The second elder brother seems to be soft-hearted when facing Aunt Li."

He Lingyun sighed, "I like Elder Sister Song very much. Since I want to become a family, I would like to remind my elder brother that the second elder brother is going to meet Aunt Li, and my elder sister may suffer a bit."

The Fourth Madam Song couldn't sit still any longer, so she pulled Song Qian up to find the old lady, but she saw He Lingshan leading the two ladies into the water pavilion, but it was the Wang family and Uncle Xi'an who had been deliberately left in the Pinhuatang before. House girl.

It seems that the eldest prince has finished reading.

As soon as the two girls entered the crowd, they were pulled and joked.

He Lingshan accompanied her for a few words, then searched around, and finally saw Song Qian, but her eyes fell on the two sisters of the He family, and she couldn't help frowning again.

Then she came over.

"They're all hiding here, so I can find them easily."

Several people greeted each other, He Lingshan casually asked the two sisters, "What did you talk to Miss Song about?"

He Lingyun smiled and said: "It's just small talk, big sister is tired today, please sit down and rest."

"It's really rare that you finally know how to be considerate, but you won't sit down anymore." He Lingshan said and looked at Song Qian, "A few days ago, I promised to let Sister Song see "Picture of Playing the Qin in the Pine Shade". Just about to present it to the eldest princess, my sister might as well come along and take a look?"

Song Qian asked in surprise: "Really?"

"Yes, I will send it to the eldest princess after you finish reading it, but I may not be able to give you a detailed taste."

"Qian'er will be satisfied just by looking at it." Song Qian swept away her previous depression and became happy.

Mrs. Song Si was fine before, but now she is a little worried.

He Lingshan looked at her and joked, "Why, are you afraid that I will kidnap Sister Song?"

Mrs. Song Si replied with a smile: "I'm really worried, who made my girl recruit so much?"

"Yo, it's really thick-skinned when you're married." He Lingshan gave her a sharp look, "It won't take half an hour to return it to you, don't worry, keep it intact."

"Then big sister, can we go together?" He Lingyun asked.

He Lingshan said: "I would like to, but there are all precious things, if they are bumped, I don't dare to trust my sister, my dear, let's have a dinner later, and I will give you delicious food."

He Lingshan then took Song Qian away, while the maid Jasmine ran out quietly.

The author has something to say: Madam: I have tried my best...
