"Grandma, is it true?" Looking at the looks of An and the eldest princess, Yu Xijiao immediately knew there was something wrong.
"There is something, Yu Ruyi." An and Grand Duke suddenly smiled, with a cold look on his lips.
"Yu Ruyi? What is that?" Yu Xijiao asked in surprise. She had never heard of it.
Princess An and the eldest princess took a long breath: "Your grandfather saved the late emperor, and the late emperor rewarded him with a piece of jade, which is now in the hands of your eldest brother."
"Is there another explanation for this Ruyi jade?" Yu Xijiao became more and more curious. After hearing the origin of this Ruyi jade, she knew it was unusual.
"This jade Ruyi was given by the late emperor. In order to reward your grandfather, I specifically stated that with this jade Ruyi, I can make a reasonable request to the royal family. As long as it does not involve the serious crime of rebellion and conspiracy, any reasonable request will be accepted." An Heda
A flash of memory flashed in the eldest princess's eyes.
Rebellion and rebellion are against the royal family and are naturally not allowed.
This is already the greatest honor of the royal family.
Yu Xijiao's heart skipped a beat. She had always suspected that there was something in the Xuanping Hou Mansion, but now she felt that it was it.
In addition to treason, anything else is acceptable. There are many meanings in this. It sounds very vague, and the scope is large and small. Whether this kind of thing is treason depends on the royal family's own opinion. Others think it is.
Or it's not, it doesn't matter, as long as the person in charge of the royal family thinks it's not, then it's not.
"This kind of thing can be big or small. Your grandfather didn't think much about it at the time. He only thought that it was the favor of the royal family, and the thunder and rain were all your kindness." Princess An and the eldest princess said solemnly, reaching out and touching Yu Xijiao
She didn't need to say this kind of thing to her little granddaughter. She wanted her little granddaughter to be an ordinary person and live an ordinary life.
But now, it can’t be done...
"Grandma, the effect of jade is so great, the royal family... would be willing to have such a thing in our hands?" Yu Xijiao raised her bright water eyes and looked at An and the eldest princess in astonishment.
This matter was so big that it was beyond her expectation. She had some guesses, but it was definitely not this.
The royal family was most afraid of this kind of thing leaking out. Although Yu Xijiao said nothing, she looked nervously at An and the eldest princess. There was such an important thing in her house.
Improper use of this kind of thing will lead to disaster.
Seeing the childish little granddaughter looking at her eagerly, her eyes filled with nervousness, An and the eldest princess smiled and said softly: "Yu Ruyi is nothing serious anymore, my grandmother told you so."
, also to let you know about the affairs of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, so as to prevent you... from accidentally falling into other people's schemes in the future."
"grandmother……"
"Good boy, grandma may not be able to protect you for long now that she is old. From now on... you have to support each other. Your eldest brother was similar to your father when he was young. He was a good person and missed old friendships, but he was too soft-hearted.
I have lost some control over everything and have no decisiveness in doing anything, so I decided to send your eldest brother away early to prevent your father from leading your eldest brother astray."
Princess An and the eldest princess said slowly, Princess An and the eldest princess really don't like their son's temperament. He is sticky and he is not a man. It would be fine if he is a daughter, but he is a son, and he is still a man.
Their only son, sometimes An and the eldest princess also wonder why he was born with the wrong gender!
"There are many hard-blooded men on the border. Your eldest brother has been completely different since he went to the border than he was in the capital. I can rest assured that he will stay at the border to experience. After so many years, your eldest brother has long ceased to be what he was before." An.
He and the eldest princess continued, "After knowing that you had this little sister, he also wanted to write to you, but I rejected him."
"Grandma is worried that others will pay more attention to... me?" Yu Xijiao said as if she didn't understand. She had always kept this question in her mind, and all her directions seemed to be this.
My grandmother obviously loves me very much and only writes one letter to me every year. My father and eldest brother completely ignore me.
My father may have been tricked by Mr. Qian. I heard that there was such a big accident when he left Beijing. My father got angry and kept holding on. It is also possible that he did not lack a daughter.
The eldest brother, on the other hand, surprised Yu Xijiao. He had been ignored for so many years. The two of them must be brothers and sisters from the same father and mother. There was no way they could be so indifferent.
Grandma said it was because it was inconvenient to send news across the border, and she hadn’t written a letter for so many years, and she can’t do it now.
There were so many meanings in these words, and Yu Xijiao also made many guesses. When her grandmother talked about it, she couldn't help but ask about her doubts.
This idea is very strange and has no reason, but this is exactly what Yu Xijiao thinks.
But, is she so important?
"You are living a good life in Jiangnan. I feel at ease with your grandmother taking care of you. The Xie family is a great Confucian family and your grandmother is protecting you. There will be no problem with your character. When you grow up and come back, your grandmother will take care of you."
Just choose a suitable marriage and live peacefully in the future."
Princess An and the eldest daughter looked at their little granddaughter gently and said, this is the day she had planned for her little granddaughter before.
But it doesn’t work now…
"Now that we have been involved in the whirlpool, how can we stay on our own? Has my aunt lived too quietly for so many years and forgotten the royal battle?"
Feng Yu's words were still ringing in his ears, awakening the already elderly An and the eldest princess.
Royal battle? How come An and the eldest princess don’t know...
The little granddaughter has already appeared in front of the palace and has attracted the attention of those in the palace. She can no longer hide herself from others. Looking at Yu Xi's delicate and beautiful appearance, An and the eldest princess reached out and touched her gently.
Looking at her pale face, her eyes were filled with bitterness. How could she hide such an outstanding appearance?
What I thought before was too simple.
"Grandma, grandma is very good." Yu Xijiao saw the sadness in the eyes of Princess An and the eldest princess, and let her hand slide across her cheek, with a look of admiration in her eyes.
"Good boy, your eldest brother may have given the jade Ruyi to the Qian family." Princess An and the eldest daughter's hand fell on their granddaughter's face and she smiled gently.
"Grandma, such an important thing... How could big brother..." Yu Xijiao was startled, and her eyes suddenly widened.
"It's not important anymore, it's long been unimportant." Princess An and the eldest daughter shook their heads, raised their heads, and looked at the hanging bead curtain, "If it were important, your eldest brother wouldn't lend it to your second sister.
"
"Is it the second sister who lent it to me?" Yu Xijiao understood.
"Your eldest brother mentioned it a little bit in the letter. Your second sister mentioned Qian's intention and said that she wanted to imitate a similar jade Ruyi and liked your eldest brother's jade Ruyi." The gentleness on Princess An and the eldest princess's face turned cold.
After Prince Xuanping wrote to his family, he also wrote a letter to his grandmother. He also mentioned the jade Ruyi in the letter, but Princess An and the eldest daughter didn't take it to heart. Prince Xuanping also brushed it off, saying that the jade had lost its effectiveness.
Ruyi was actually just Yu Ruyi. If Yu Xijiao hadn't mentioned it, An and the eldest princess wouldn't have thought of it at all.
Yu Xijiao's heart moved, and her eyes suddenly lit up: "Grandma, this jade Ruyi is no longer of that great use?"
Princess An and the eldest daughter smiled. This little granddaughter is really smart. Many years ago, this jade Ruyi was just an ordinary reward from the late emperor...
"Did you get Jade Ruyi?" Madam Qian suddenly stood up, her body trembling slightly and she almost fell down, but her face was extremely excited.
"Here... I got it. It's at Madam's place." The maid who secretly ran to Qian Shilang's house to report the news said. Qian didn't want things to go wrong and wanted to be more sure, so she sent the maid to ask Mrs. Qian for help. She must
Please ask Mrs. Qian to attend that day.
"Let your madam bring Yu Ruyi over for me to take a look at first." Mrs. Qian sat down slowly, her voice was excited, and her eyes were so bright that she almost didn't look like a sickly old man.
"Old madam, madam said... I can't take out this jade Ruyi, for fear that if something happens, madam won't be able to resist it." The maid said calmly.
"I am your wife's biological mother. Is it possible that I can defraud your wife of something? I have heard of such a jade Ruyi and want to see it first and help your wife see if it is true." Mrs. Qian
His face darkened and he said coldly.
"Old madam, madam said... She said she must not leave the house." The maid knelt down with a frightened voice and stammered.
Mrs. Qian's face showed anger and she slapped the table.
The maid lowered her head to the ground and did not dare to say a word.
"Can your wife visit?" Mrs. Qian suddenly asked.
"You can visit, the second girl can visit, the other people... slave... slave don't know." The maid said in panic. When she just entered the door, the old lady was still very kind. After hearing that the lady's supervision was loosened, she even went out of her way to
He comforted Egypt with a few words and told him to serve his wife well. Why did he become so gloomy when he heard about Yu Ruyi?
The maid didn't dare to think or ask.
Mrs. Qian had a gloomy face and said nothing. It was inconvenient for her to come forward at this time. After thinking about it, the only feasible option was that she could go to the Xuanping Hou Mansion on the day of the banquet.
The note has been placed on the table. Originally, Mrs. Qian didn't plan to go, and she felt shameless talking about it, but now she had to go.
He frowned tightly: "Tell your madam not to act rashly. I will come over early that day to discuss this matter with your madam."
"I understand, I will tell the lady when I get back." The maid nodded repeatedly and breathed a sigh of relief.
Mrs. Qian had no intention of telling the maid anything else at this time and waved her hand to signal the maid to leave.
After the maid kowtowed to Mrs. Qian, she stepped back tremblingly. She breathed a sigh of relief when she reached the door. She looked back at the door and was scared. Today, Mrs. Qian seemed to be a different person. It was because of this.
What is Jade Ruyi? The maid was confused, but she didn’t dare to stay at the door any longer.
He hurried back to report the news.
Mrs. Qian in the room frowned tightly, and it took a long time before she heard her let out a sinister laugh, and then said to herself: "Jade Ruyi? It is actually the Jade Ruyi given by the late emperor! The critical moment is
