Xie Wenyuan was still twitching, and after a while she said: "Where can I contribute to the empress, how can I have that face? It's Princess Chen!"
When she came to the palace, she happened to see a set of jewelry belonging to the empress that was somewhat damaged. She thought that I had a shop here that was quite good at craftsmanship, so she asked me about it. After asking me about it, she asked me to buy a set from her shop.
I planned to present it to the Empress at the Qianqiu Banquet, it was so easy to get, but I don’t know how much hard work I put into it, and now it’s just lost like this!”
Lin Jiyan swallowed and secretly clenched his fists.
Yes, the third girl of the Xie family was given a marriage to King Chen. As Princess Chen, she is of course qualified to meet the Queen, and it is natural for her to give gifts to the Queen.
But……
But that set of things was already with Jiaorui. If the superiors knew that he had given the things he intended to give to the empress to an actor, it would probably be a serious crime that would bring harm to the family.
He remained silent, but he didn't dare to lift his hand like this. He was really afraid that some news would come from him.
At the same time, he was hesitating whether to go to Jiaorui's place to get the things back.
But this thought made him press it immediately. Jiaorui liked it so much, but he still didn't know how to be moved. How could he pour a basin of cold water on it at this time?
And if he does this, I am afraid that the man named Zhang will take advantage of him immediately, and Jiaorui may never agree to be with him forever.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiyan sat up straighter and just stayed in the room.
However, Xie Wenyuan asked doubtfully: "Don't you go out every day to socialize with old friends in the capital? Why are you staying at home today?"
"You are such a strange woman. Since my mother-in-law arranged for me to live here, I can stay here whenever I want. Why else?"
He was thinking about the matter of accountability in the palace, so he was naturally in a bad mood and his tone was irritable.
Xie Wenyuan got angry at this moment, "You know I'm in a bad mood today, so don't provoke me in front of me! I don't know if someone comes later, it won't hurt you."
"You..." These words made Lin Jiyan's heart tighten, and he immediately said, "What are you talking about?!"
"I'm not talking nonsense. The Holy One is seriously ill at the moment, and the prince and the third prince are busy attending to His Majesty's health. It happened that King Chen was sent to the border. My niece who is the princess was very anxious, so she thought
I want to use this to please the queen and the queen, and I want the prince to issue an order to summon the prince back.
Now that the things are gone, I'm afraid all her plans will be in vain. How could she not be annoyed with me? She paid for me to do it in the first place, and she believed in me as her aunt, so she entrusted me with such an important matter.
, and now I have been screwed up by her all my life..."
Xie Wenyuan started crying again while talking.
Lin Jiyan was completely frightened, "No... Isn't it just a divorce? Why are you still related to the prince... the prince or something?"
"Otherwise, I don't know anything about living with you in the south. The movements of women in the back house are inextricably related to the previous dynasty, especially the royal family. You think they are just a few women.
Isn’t it okay for people to drink tea and chat together?”
Lin Jiyan was shocked by what she said, but he didn't dare to refute.
The Lin family had never been in such a bad situation before, so he knew in his heart that what his wife said was right.
It's just that in recent years, the Lin family has become worse and worse with each generation, and he has been living in a dream, ignoring those complicated political relationships.
Now that I heard this, I felt a little confused, but finally I softened my voice and said, "Then... what should I do now?"
"What should we do?" Xie Wenyuan rolled her eyes at him, "Things have already happened, what else can I do but carry it?"
"Can……"
"You don't have to laugh at my jokes!" Xie Wenyuan sneered, "Even if it's my mistake, you are my husband, so you have to bear it with me!"
Just as he was saying harsh words, someone outside suddenly announced, "The princess is here, please come over to meet her guests!"
Then Lin Ruoxi ran in, "Mom, the princess's cousin is here, what can I do?"
Xie Wenyuan took a deep breath, with a look of determination on her face, "Groom me, you have to face what you have to face!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Jiyan grabbed him and said, "Don't mess around!"
Xie Wenyuan frowned and looked at him, "What do you mean?"
"Don't say something is missing right away. It's not like the Queen's Chitose has just been in the past two days. If we wait a little longer, maybe we can find it again."
As soon as I finished speaking, I heard people cheering and saluting outside. It was actually the sound of greeting the princess.
"Aunt! I came here specially to see you. I heard that you are not feeling well?"
Xie Wenyuan no longer cared about saying anything more to Lin Jiyan and hurriedly took her daughter out to greet him.
When Lin Jiyan heard that the person speaking outside was Princess Chen, he was immediately frightened and did not dare to go out, but the people outside had already asked, "My aunt is here too today?"
Xie Wenyuan's tone froze for a moment, then he said with a smile: "I'm right here!"
Lin Jiyan had no choice but to walk out. After one glance, he immediately felt that he was not worthy of being looked at.
Xie Songhua was wearing a gorgeous and expensive palace attire today. Her black hair was combed into a complicated peony bun, and she was walking with a seven-tailed phoenix. A huge drop-shaped pearl shone on her forehead, which made the painted face even more beautiful.
His eyebrows are noble and domineering.
The maids at the back stood in two rows, each holding something in their hands and walking in the same pace, which made people feel awe.
Lin Jiyan felt that he did not dare to express his dignity, so he quickly bowed and raised his hand to salute Xie Songhua. His performance was quite satisfactory and there was nothing wrong with it.
Xie Songhua nodded slightly and still turned to Xie Wenyuan, "Actually, I came here today to ask my aunt if the queen can get the jewelry? When I entered the palace a few days ago, I saw that the queen was not in a good mood and faced me.
I poured out a lot of bitter water.
I also know that she has always liked these gorgeous jewelry. Although it is difficult for the Holy Father to bring them out now that she is ill, we are all women and naturally we all know that looking at these beautiful things will make you feel good."
Hearing what she said, Lin Jiyan felt more and more that he couldn't stand or sit. The maid next to Xie Songhua asked him to sit down, so he sat down with his butt next to the chair.
Then he went to see Xie Wenyuan for a while, and then secretly looked at Xie Songhua's face.
Xie Wenyuan looked a little ugly and seemed a little embarrassed to speak.
Lin Jiyan on the side was so frightened that she was afraid that she would say something bad, so he coughed twice.
Xie Wenyuan didn't speak, but Xie Songhua asked doubtfully: "Master, does he have a cold?"
As soon as she said this, a maid next to her immediately poured out a pill from a porcelain bottle for Xie Songhua to take.
Seeing Xie Wenyuan's confusion, the maid explained with a smile, "This is the medicine prepared by Zhuo Yuan of the Taiyuan Hospital. It is said that our princess has a weak body and is more likely to get sick than ordinary people. It is better to be safe."
Hearing this, Lin Jiyan felt ashamed and embarrassed, but he did not dare to say any disrespectful words, so he had to raise his sleeves to wipe his sweat.
However, Xie Songhua did not continue this topic, but said with some worry: "Auntie, don't blame me for rushing you. The prince's matter cannot be delayed any longer. You must find a way to sell well in front of the Queen. Listen to Kun
The maid of Ning Palace revealed the news to me, and the empress even asked me about it a few days ago!"
"ah?!"
Lin Jiyan was so frightened that he immediately lost his voice, which shocked the aunt and nephew over there. Xie Songhua frowned, "I must be impatient to hear about the quarrels between us women. Why don't you go and do your own thing!"
