"You don't have to give her face. A concubine really wants to crawl onto me." Mrs. Qian snorted coldly and was very angry. Whenever she thought about the servants in the house talking about her in private, she would lift Aunt Zhou to her.
Qian couldn't stand it anymore, not even for a moment.
Even if Aunt Zhou, a bitch, doesn't end well in the end, she still can't bear this.
"Then let me arrange a few people. Madam, we can't be too obvious, otherwise Aunt Zhou will get the handle, and then the Marquis will blame you."
Grandma Xi reminded.
"Okay!" Mrs. Qian listened to the advice. Even though she wanted to scratch Aunt Zhou's face and trample Aunt Zhou under her feet, she knew that she had to keep a low profile at this time.
"Madam, what about Mrs. Ning?" Nanny Xi asked cautiously, "The pot of flowers I told you about before... do you want to send it there?"
Asking for a pot of flowers is a trivial matter, the most important thing is to send news. During this time, Qian and Ning often spread news for similar reasons.
"Send it over and tell me that this kind of thing won't happen again in the future. The Marquis won't allow it." Qian said angrily. She was also confused at first and actually listened to her cousin's words. Now she is still scared when she thinks about it.
Now that the incident has been defeated and all the bad breath has been directed at Ning, there is no time left to deal with Ning.
"Second girl's marriage?" Nanny Xi reminded.
Mrs. Qian snorted coldly: "Xi'er's affairs are almost over. It doesn't matter if we don't have a cousin."
My daughter came to see me last night and specifically mentioned this matter. She said that she would be settled after a while, so that she didn't have to worry.
This was a great thing for Qian, and it also made her breathe a big sigh of relief. Looking back on her past experiences, she felt as if she was being held hostage by Ning.
My daughter is right, the Zhengyuanhou Mansion is no longer good, and the second wife of the Zhengyuanhou Mansion is nothing. How can it be that she, the majestic Madam of Xuanpinghou, has to endure the second wife of the Zhengyuanhou Mansion?
Madam cannot be held hostage.
After receiving Qian's words, Grandma Xi retreated with understanding, took a maid to the flower room to pick out a pot of flowers, and took the flowers to the side door.
After knocking on the back door, the door opened. Mrs. Ning stood behind the door with a woman, and Aunt Xi stepped forward to salute.
"Where is your wife?" Seeing that Qian was the only one, Ning asked displeasedly.
"Mrs. Ning, our wife is not feeling well." Aunt Xi said with a smile. In fact, she really despised the Ning family in front of her. If the Ning family had not given birth to a Ning Concubine, the Ning family would have been nothing more than a run-down house, unmarried.
In the past, he had taken advantage of the power of the Qian Mansion and was just his wife's follower.
"My cousin is feeling unwell, what's wrong with her?" Ning frowned and looked at Nanny Xi carefully.
"Madam has a headache and can't get up for a while. I asked my old slave to bring flowers. Madam may not come here in the future. Our Lord Marquis knows this and doesn't like it very much."
Aunt Xi said with a smile on her face but not on her face.
"Does Marquis Xuanping know?" Ning was startled.
"Yes, our Lord Marquis will not allow our wife to have more contact with Mrs. Ning." Aunt Xi raised her head and said.
"My cousin and I are flesh and blood, what does Marquis Xuanping mean by this?" Ning's expression changed drastically. Now Xuanpinghou Mansion is the only place where news can be conveyed to Zhengyuan Marquis Mansion.
"Madam, I don't know about this. The flowers have already been delivered." Aunt Xi said disapprovingly, and asked the maid to come forward and deliver the flowers, then turned to leave. Ning was angry at her slack behavior.
Her face turned blue, and she was about to scold Aunt Xi when she suddenly felt her sleeves being pulled. She turned around and saw her eldest daughter, Yu Lanxue, who had come with her.
"Aunt Xi, please wait a moment." Yu Lanxue put down Ning's sleeves and said to Aunt Xi with a smile.
Aunt Xi stopped and saw that there was Yu Lanxue on the opposite side. She had to stop when she was called: "Miss Yu."
"Mother Xi, is Sister Zhuqing back? She used to be on good terms with Sister Lanxuan. Now that something like this has happened to Sister Lanxuan, she should be allowed to come back to pay homage."
This is actually just asking for something to say, as the news has been sent to them before.
"Miss Yu, our eldest daughter has just come back. The county king has been buried. If you come back late, you can't worship for the time being." Aunt Xi still has a good feeling for Yu Lanxue. Among the children born to the Ning family, this is the only one.
A big girl is very polite, and she used to be polite to her servants.
"Even if it's late, we still have to pay our respects. When the ban on our house is lifted, we still have to pay our respects then." Yu Lanxue said softly, with a bit of sadness on her face: "Sister Lanxuan
Although she is no longer here, she must be our sister. Even if others forget her, we cannot forget her."
These words were very affectionate and meaningful, and there were even tears in the corners of Yu Lanxue's eyes. Even though Aunt Xi was a little angry at Mrs. Ning, she could not say anything hidden in her words when facing Yu Lanxue.
"Miss Yu, when the ban is lifted in your house, several girls from our house will come together to worship the eldest daughter." Aunt Xi agreed.
The third girl is bound to go. The eldest girl has not been here yet so she should go. Both girls have gone. If the second girl doesn't go, she will be criticized.
"Mother Xi, could you please ask Sister Zhuqing to embroider a sachet for me? The one she embroidered for me took a long time and is already broken." Yu Lanxue thought for a while and said.
Yu Zhuqing was an excellent embroiderer, and both governments knew about it. In the past, the Qian family often asked Yu Zhuqing to embroider some things. This matter was considered a small matter, so Aunt Xi made the decision for Yu Zhuqing on the spot and agreed.
After Grandma Xi left, the side doors of the two mansions were closed again. Ning's face was still livid, and she cursed fiercely: "You dog slave!"
A slave with the power of a dog and a stick. In the past, he looked like a dog, but now he actually dared to glare at him.
"Mom, don't be angry. If your uncle knows about your dealings with your aunt, he will definitely not be happy." Yu Lanxue advised.
"Is this your uncle's business? This dog slave obviously did it on purpose." Ning had been waiting here for a while, but now she didn't get any news. Instead, she saw the dog slave looking indifferent and angry.
It doesn't work.
"Mom, wait until the government lifts the ban before talking about other things." Yu Lanxue advised softly.
"The ban will be lifted. When will it be lifted? Is the ban going to be lifted if we don't say it is? Why haven't we released him yet? What does the assassination of Prince Qi have to do with our family?"
Ning said irritably.
As long as one thinks that Yu Chengxuan is still alive and may have returned to Jiangnan now, even if his son goes to Jiangnan to get rid of Yu Chengxuan in the future, the changes in this matter will be huge.
Ning just regretted that she couldn't go out now, otherwise she would definitely catch up with Yu Chengxuan and kill him. If Yu Chengxuan didn't die, the title would not fall on her family.
"Mother, it's useless no matter how anxious you are. This matter has something to do with the royal family." Yu Lanxue sighed softly, raising her eyes to the direction of the palace. That is where wealth and power lies. Compared with the Zhengyuan Marquis in her own house,
For a noble title, the palace is the most desirable place.
When she saw Concubine Ning coming in her best clothes, Yu Lanxue knew that her goal was here...
In the royal study room of the imperial palace.
The emperor looked at the book in front of him with a heavy face. After reading it, he put it down heavily, and then picked it up again. After repeating this several times, he suddenly slapped the table and said angrily: "What a gift."
Duan Wang Feng Lanxiu raised his head uneasily: "Father... this..."
"It's really ridiculous." The emperor said sternly, with an angry expression on his face, and pointed at his eldest son: "How can you get such a discount? It's obviously his nonsense."
"Father, Prince Qi said that if he didn't bring it, he would have to go to court and present it directly to his father even if he struggled to move." Feng Lanxiu actually didn't want to give this booklet, but he had to give it.
He also knew that if he came over, he would be scolded by his father.
"Want to go to court? Okay, I'll go to court with him. I want to see if he dares to take out this envelope in front of his face." The emperor said angrily, and patted the envelope on the table hard, "
He is the eldest son of a feudal lord, and he already has a lot of guards around him, so he actually wants to send a team of guards here, what do you want to do?"
He didn't ask Feng Yu to come to Beijing just to let him come over and cause trouble. If he wasn't afraid of his younger brother, he would have been rude to his nephew long ago!
"Father...does that mean you don't allow it?"
Feng Lanxiu asked hesitantly.
The emperor took a deep breath, fell back heavily, and pursed his lips tightly. If he could, he would have sent troops to march into Qi's ground and knock Qi's ground down directly. Why would he let it go?
A nephew was lawless in front of him, but now Feng Yu could not move.
"What is he doing in the palace during this time?" The emperor suppressed the anger in his heart and asked.
"In the house next to the Marquis Zhengyuan's Mansion, I don't do much on weekdays. I just watch singing and dancing. I also sent two beauties to my son's house, and also gave them to my second and third brothers.
I sent two." Feng Lanxiu is mainly responsible for Feng Yu, and pays special attention to his every move.
The emperor waved his hand and said impatiently: "There is no need to talk about such a trivial matter. Is there anything else?"
"Others... I just want to get more guards. Prince Zhongshan almost died this time, and he was stabbed again and again. He still doesn't dare to go back to his house. Now that his legs and feet are inconvenient, he is even more afraid to go outside.
"Feng Lanxiu almost finished speaking through gritted teeth.
He said this...as if he was about to be assassinated when he left home.
"Have you found out everything about Prince Zhongshan?" The emperor thought for a while and said gloomily.
"This incident... must have been an accident. There were many people watching the excitement in front of the Xinkangbo Mansion at that time. Prince Zhongshan left in casual clothes. No one knew that he had followed him. The reason why he was injured so seriously was because
Because Prince Zhongshan was injured before." Feng Lanxiu reported what he found.
"I really don't know what to say when something like this happens in the Xinkangbo Mansion." The emperor snorted coldly and expressed his anger at the Xinkangbo Mansion.
Feng Lanxiu didn't dare to answer the call.
"You don't need to inform me in advance. You go and tell your imperial grandmother... Your imperial grandmother will make the decision on this matter and ask him to move back quickly. It doesn't matter if he doesn't live in Prince Qi's Mansion!" The emperor was silent for a moment and said softly.
, a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, I understand." Feng Lanxiu breathed a sigh of relief. It was indeed the most appropriate time for the Queen Mother to step forward at this time.
After retreating to the door, Feng Lanxiu stopped when he saw the beauty Yingying hanging outside the door...
