The newlyweds' sedan passed by. The groom in front of the sedan was handsome and cheerful. It was obvious that he was very happy about this marriage. I heard that the groom was the son of General Jingyuan, so he postponed the wedding because he was about to go to the border. The bride was Xuan Ping.
The eldest girl in the Hou Mansion, whose father was also a border soldier, died on the border. She was also a daughter of a general, but she was still young when her father died and her mother died.
Marquis Xuanping adopted the girl who lost her parents.
Nowadays, even if the ten-mile red makeup was prepared in a hurry, it can be seen that Xuanping Hou really put his heart into it. The passers-by on both sides watched the sedan chair passing by and talked about the marriage between the two families.
Although Xuanpinghou is not very popular, I heard that he is also the most useless. He is really good to his daughter. You can clearly see the dowry in the first few lifts, which one is not exquisite. Even the first to lift it, there are An and Dachang.
The jade Ruyi given by the princess personally gave the Jingyuan General's mansion a decent reputation.
Watching the procession of welcoming the bride pass by, the woman in front of the window sat down and asked with a smile: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Li Xian was still standing in front of the window, looking at the retreating team, and smiled faintly: "The eldest son of General Jingyuan's residence is usually a low-key person."
They were in a private room on the second floor of a tea shop. The business of this tea shop was particularly good today, and many people came to watch the fun. The daughter of Marquis Xuanping was married to the eldest son of General Jingyuan. The best way to go from here was
It's a must-go road, but luckily you book a private room early, otherwise you might not be able to book one.
"Compared to the last Yu girl, this one is really lucky." The sixth princess whispered, her words were gentle, but there was a hint of ridicule in her eyes.
Li Xian couldn't see it. Li Xian's eyes still fell below and he just nodded casually: "Who is Yu Lanyan? She can be compared with the daughter of Marquis Xuanping."
"Speaking of Zhengyuan Hou's Mansion, I also went to Zhengyuan Hou's Mansion that day." The Sixth Princess smiled softly.
Li Xian slowly withdrew his gaze, but did not turn around in a hurry: "Princess, why did you come to Zhengyuan Hou Mansion?"
"Go and pay homage to Yu Lanxuan. Yu Lanxuan is really pitiful. Why did she end up with such a cousin? Chu Zihan is also completely stupid. He doesn't care about such a good girl, but he cares so much about a despicable woman." The sixth princess said, her eyes falling on her.
There was tenderness on Li Xian's back, and then he said bluntly, "Your cousin's character is not good."
Li Xian finally turned around, sat down on the other side of the table, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup. He also reached out to pour a cup for the Sixth Princess, and pushed it in front of the Sixth Princess: "That's why you soiled your gauze that day.
this?"
"I burned some pieces of paper for Yu Lanxuan, but I didn't notice that my clothes were stained. The prince reminded me when he saw it later," the sixth princess said sheepishly.
Li Xian did not pursue the matter further, and simply replied to the original topic: "Cousin...he really doesn't know what happened."
"When Yu Lanxuan was here, we didn't see much, but if we did, we would definitely say a few words. We were still young at that time, but later her father passed away and she kept her filial piety, so we never saw her again. I didn't expect this.
It's actually a farewell. If I had known this earlier, I would have gone to see her no matter what."
The Sixth Princess took the tea handed by Li Xian, took a sip, and sighed: "There is no better fate than this for a beauty. It is really a pity for such a person."
"Princess, do you think Yu Lanxuan is a person?" Li Xian took a sip of tea and put it down, smiled slightly, and asked.
"Of course she is a character. Although she is just a woman, I haven't met her much, but I still talk a lot about her. I just regret that it was not easy for me to leave the palace at that time, otherwise I might have become a sister with a different surname at that time. She...
It gives me a different feeling, different from other daughters of aristocratic families."
The sixth princess said thoughtfully, her eyes slowly looking out the window, seemingly lost in memories.
"What's the difference?" Li Xian played with the tea cup in his hand.
"I can't tell what's the difference, but it's just that I'm different from ordinary daughters of aristocratic families. I feel more knowledgeable, more dignified and decent, and do things with grace. Unlike other people, who either pretend to be dignified on the surface, or act like a fool.
She has a little temperament, in short, she is very different, I like her very much, but it’s a pity...I didn’t expect that she would meet those people from the Ning family."
The sixth princess sighed again.
"Ning, Yu Zhongyang and these people are just treacherous villains." Li Xiandao.
"What the Crown Prince is saying is that these people have harmed Yu Lanxuan. It's a pity that such a beauty has ended up in such a burning position. The Ning family is really hateful." The Sixth Princess withdrew her gaze and felt the same, "At that time, if I
If you know better, you will definitely save her from the sea of suffering, and you can't let her sink into the hell of hatred no matter what."
Li Xian didn't say anything. He picked up the tea cup with lowered eyes and took another sip. Then he slowly put it down. When he raised his head, he still smiled elegantly, giving off the feeling of a young master.
"The Emperor's gift of marriage, I may... be unable to do anything about it."
"Your Majesty, I don't blame you... I can only say that we are destined to be incompatible." The sixth princess lowered her head bitterly, "Sometimes the fate is really unclear, just like Yu Lanxuan, who was about to get married.
They all thought that she would be able to get rid of her sorrow and return to the circle of aristocratic families. Who would have thought... that this would be the result in the end."
"I'm sorry!" Li Xian's voice became a little hoarse.
"I really don't blame you." The sixth princess raised her eyes, affection flowing in her eyes, "I just hope that in the future... if there is a chance, I can still see the crown prince. Even though we can't get married, we can still be close friends, not long-term companions.
You can at least stay with me forever."
"Okay!" Li Xian nodded heavily, his eyes falling on the sixth princess's face, which also revealed a bit of tenderness.
The room suddenly fell silent, as if no one knew how to speak. Finally, the Sixth Princess spoke first and said with a wry smile: "Actually, we don't have to do this. Maybe things will turn around, or my father may think it would be better to marry me.
Some, she must be arrogant, but she is the Queen's legitimate daughter, and no one can stop her from her status."
After the sixth princess finished speaking, she lowered her head and covered up the redness in the corners of her eyes.
They are also princesses, and the legitimate princess is naturally the most noble. Just like being a prince, the legitimate prince can be established as a prince when he is born. Nowadays, the Jin Dynasty has not established a crown prince for a long time. This is because even if it is established, many people are not convinced.
Rules and standing are not necessarily the same.
"You're fine." Li Xian raised his eyes and said.
"I am very good, but unfortunately, I am not the Queen's legitimate daughter. No matter how good I am, it is useless. I just hope that in the future, I can... make my own decisions." The eyes of the sixth princess turned red, "Yu Zhuqing is just an adopted daughter, but she actually...
I can marry the one I love happily, but I..."
As he spoke, he started to swallow even more.
Li Xian sighed softly, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it over. The Sixth Princess took it and pressed it on the corner of her eyes to cover up the eye marks, "Let the prince laugh."
"It's all my fault." Li Xian's voice was hoarse.
"It has nothing to do with the crown prince, it's all my fault. If I were the queen's biological child, how could it be like this? It's all my fault." The sixth princess shook her hand, smiled with tears in her eyes, and put the handkerchief on the corner of the table.
The two of them were silent again.
The Sixth Princess stood up: "Your Majesty, I'll take my leave first. If you leave the palace for too long, it will attract others' attention. We will meet again next time you leave the palace."
Li Xian nodded and did not get up to see him off.
The sixth princess put on her curtain hat, turned around and left with the palace maid.
The door of the room closed, Li Xian leaned back slowly, his eyes slowly turned cold, and there was no longer the affection that had just flowed around. Then the corners of his lips curled up, he picked up the handkerchief and threw it in the corner, and put it on his back again.
He stood in front of the window with his hands, looking at the lively crowd below, and could vaguely hear the discussion about the wedding just now.
Shili Hongzhuang marries her sweetheart?
He had lost this childish idea many years ago...
The sixth princess entered the courtyard through the back door. This courtyard was her first residence in the city. In the past, there was only one mother-in-law guarding here.
After sitting down in the middle room, the mother-in-law came forward to greet her.
"Is there any news?" The sixth princess raised her eyes and asked, picking up the tea in front of her and taking a sip.
"There is news, but it didn't work." The mother-in-law knelt down in panic.
Zhongzhong put down the tea cup heavily, and the Sixth Princess snorted coldly: "What's going on? Is it because no one went there or no one noticed?"
"The person went, but didn't enter the house. He just sat in the wing. When others went there, they found nothing. The girl even said she saw someone enter the house, but in fact he didn't enter at all." The mother-in-law said.
Lying on the ground, trembling slightly.
"It's really useless. She can't do anything well. She's just a stupid girl." The Sixth Princess snorted coldly, frowning fiercely with a gloomy look on her face.
The other people in the room didn't even dare to take a breath, they all lowered their heads and remained motionless.
It took a while before I heard the sixth princess above speak: "What else did the mother-in-law of Qian Mansion say?"
"They also said that their old lady was injured by Princess An and the eldest princess, and sent a maid to...injure Mrs. Qian's leg. Now her leg is broken, and she has returned home for treatment," the mother-in-law said.
"So serious? Is it true?" The sixth princess was shocked. She didn't expect An and the eldest princess's methods to be so drastic. She had heard about An and the eldest princess's extraordinary methods back then, but since she became conscious,
Princess An and the eldest princess have always been useless and seem to have fallen out of favor. Even if all the married princesses in the palace come back, she excuses herself because of illness. With the incident involving Marquis Xuanping, she feels more and more unbearable.
use.
The sixth princess didn't think much of what she said about a heroine.
She is just an old princess who has passed away. The son she gave birth to is still so disappointing, and the grandson is just a useless warrior. Apart from the kindness of the old Marquis Xuanping, this old princess of the Marquis Xuanping Mansion is also
What is left to admire.
"I heard this from the mother-in-law of the Qian Mansion."
"Now that I said it, it must be true. Have you cleaned up the matter in the follow-up?" the sixth princess said coldly. She was not willing to let this old princess find her head.
"Princess, don't worry, this woman from the Qian Mansion led Mrs. Qian to do this. Originally, Mrs. Qian wanted to save her daughter, and it had nothing to do with us. It is said that Mrs. Qian has cleared up all the clues.
"The mother-in-law said.
This was originally a chain of events.
The Sixth Princess's people bribed Mrs. Qian's people, and Mrs. Qian's people bribed Xu Jiayi's maid, and they were all closely linked. It really wasn't appropriate to investigate the Sixth Princess...
