As Yu Ruiwen was being helped into the carriage by a crying chamberlain, the rumor that the Prince of Qi came to pay the betrothal gift in person rudely spread immediately.
Also spread were the two rude and ridiculous reasons given by Prince Qi, saying that someone was coveting him, and that the backyard of Prince Qi's Mansion was in chaos because no one was in charge.
Someone secretly inquired about which daughter of a family had offended the Prince of Qi. Sure enough, word came out from the palace that she was actually the filial daughter with an excellent reputation now. This meant that she had fallen in love with the Prince of Qi and was disgusted by the Prince of Qi. Both parties even
There was a quarrel, and in the end the Queen Mother punished the Prince of Qi.
So why did Prince Qi go to Xuanpinghou Mansion to cause trouble?
It turns out... is there really a truth?
Knowing the news in the palace secretly, he couldn't help but suddenly realized that this was something Prince Qi was upset about and deliberately provoked. As he said, the three girls in the Xuanping Hou Mansion were the most pitiable.
On the contrary, this so-called "filial daughter" secretly made many noble girls who had thought about Feng Yu laugh at her. She didn't know where she came from, but now she actually dared to think about King Qi with just a good reputation.
The prince is not afraid of risking his own life.
Did the so-called "filial daughter" really not bump into the Crown Prince Qi's face on purpose? Didn't she really have a conflict with the Crown Prince Qi because she fell in love with the Crown Prince Qi?
Now after Feng Yu made such a fuss, many people suddenly felt that this woman was probably just trying to gain fame. Who knows if she had some ulterior motives when she entered Prince Duan's Mansion. She had hooked up with Prince Duan before, but now she found out that Prince Duan's Mansion was full of troubles and wanted to hook up with him again.
The Crown Prince of Qi, but the Crown Prince of Qi is not Prince Duan, so how can she hook up with him...
Speaking of which, the incident of Concubine Xu may really have something to do with this woman. Some people also heard that this woman was very beautiful and more beautiful than any of the wives and concubines in Prince Duan's palace. No wonder Prince Duan was confused.
There are a few men who are not tempted by stunning women.
As for the Crown Prince of Qi? Of course that doesn’t count. This man is extremely beautiful and a prodigy, so how could he be deceived by a woman? Everyone is saying that the one who can make the Crown Prince of Qi fall in love with him.
I'm afraid the woman hasn't been born yet.
The story about Prince Qi's riot in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion was spread silently, and what followed was suspicion of the woman's reputation, as well as suspicion of Prince Duan's character. There was even a faint feeling that Dali Temple should go to this woman.
After more inquiries, I felt more and more sympathy for Xu Anjiao.
At this time, the corruption case at the Ministry of Punishment had basically been concluded.
The point is very clear, Li Xiangyi's father was really wronged.
Therefore, Li Xiangyi is a true filial daughter.
Everyone who knew the news was in an uproar. So is this Miss Li really a good character? But why did she want to seduce Prince Duan and Prince Qi? Could it be because of her father?
When matters related to the Xuanping Hou Mansion, Crown Prince Qi, Li Xiangyi, and Prince Duan in the capital, the palace of Princess Minghe had already sent people to secretly go to the place where the incident occurred, which was not far from the capital. Some matters were not within the scope of the investigation and punishment department.
Within, but within the verification range of Ming and Princess Dachang.
An ordinary courtyard in the Zhennan Hou Mansion.
Now Li Xiangyi lives here temporarily.
In the main room, Li Xiangyi and Zhang Wanyin were both there. Both of them looked unhappy, and the servants had already left.
Li Xiangyi put down the tea cup in his hand: "Princess Duan, at first you said Miss Yu San was easy to deal with, that she would not cause trouble for me, and that I would definitely be favored by Prince Qi."
"Miss Li, there is no benefit now. The Queen Mother gave you a concubine in Prince Yong's palace. Is it still bad?" Zhang Wanyin said angrily.
In the past, she would never have said such a thing, but now not only Li Xiangyi's reputation is not very good, but also King Duan's reputation is also not good.
The prince of Qi was not confused, so how could Prince Duan be seduced by a woman?
Some people even said that King Duan didn't care about Xu Anjiao's life and death. He knew that this woman had evil intentions, so why did he keep her here and even protect her from leaving?
She was extremely kind to this woman, but she was a little too unkind to Xu Anjiao and Prince Duan.
King Duan's reputation is very important now. Zhang Wanyin has regretted it for a long time. If he had known that he would recruit Li Xiangyi to Beijing, he would not be able to do so.
But there was no benefit, and it also ruined King Duan's reputation. She would never think of bringing Li Xiangyi to Beijing.
The acquaintance of the two people was also accidental. They met Zhang Wanyin when he was passing by when he left Beijing. The two talked for a while and both felt that the other person was very suitable for them. So during the period of leaving Beijing, the two of them exchanged letters.
, and became a close friend.
This incident had nothing to do with Li Xiangyi's father. Zhang Wanyin only made a little effort, and Li Xiangyi entered Beijing with an excellent reputation.
If it weren't for Zhang Wanyin's push, Li Xiangyi alone would never have been able to enter Prince Duan's palace. Everything was secretly arranged by Zhang Wanyin.
Li Xiangyi is very beautiful, with a very beautiful face. It is difficult for any man not to care about such a complexion. Zhang Wanyin had already thought about using Li Xiangyi in the future when she saw Li Xiangyi.
It just so happened that Li Xiangyi didn't want to marry just any petty official, but her father was in the local area and the only people she knew were these people. If she wanted to marry well, she would at least have to come from the capital. Even the big families in the capital had to marry her.
There is also a prince, so here is the person she wants to marry.
The two of them hit it off immediately.
However, it was indeed Li Xiangyi who was chosen by Feng Lanxiu for the night banquet that day. After checking Li Xiangyi's background, he found that there was no problem. It happened that he needed such a manpower, so the night banquet escaped to Feng Yu. Feng Yu had no choice but to
He is not a sympathetic person.
As for the fact that Li Xiangyi and Zhang Wanyin had known each other for a long time, Feng Lanxiu didn't know about it.
It can only be said that Zhang Wanyin pushed everything forward, but something went wrong after that, and then it was no longer under Zhang Wanyin's control, running like a horse in an uncontrollable direction.
Li Xiangyi stood up and saluted Zhang Wanyin: "Princess Duan has been extremely kind to me. I will never forget it in this life, and I will definitely repay Princess Duan's kindness."
This was said tactfully, and Zhang Wanyin felt a little more at ease. She looked up at Li Xiangyi, looked her up and down carefully, and then said to herself: "After all, Miss Yu is the one who is good-looking and can catch the eye of Prince Qi?"
This was not said in a polite way, but Li Xiangyi heard it clearly and was very unconvinced. She had known that she was good-looking since she was a child, and she had wholeheartedly wanted to marry into a high family. Not only did she have this idea, but also her
Parents also think so. They think that if their daughter is born with such a good appearance, she must marry into the emperor's family...
"If I were also the legitimate daughter of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, Prince Qi would not treat me like this." Li Xiangyi said unconvinced and sat down again. She had always been conceited about her appearance.
Glancing sideways at Zhang Wanyin, she saw that Princess Duan was still a bit inferior to her.
"How did Prince Qi treat Yu Xijiao?" Zhang Wanyin curled her lips sarcastically, "The two families are now quarreling about canceling their engagement, and the reason is because of you."
Don't think that she couldn't see Li Xiangyi's hidden sarcasm. She couldn't help but stab Li Xiangyi, "Yu Xijiao... Whenever she is in the crowd, she is the first thing he sees. Her delicate appearance is also...
Only Prince Qi can compare."
Li Xiangyi curled his lips slightly. As for the first person he sees, Li Xiangyi feels that if she is in a crowd, she will be the first person others see. She has always been conceited in terms of appearance.
"Princess Duan, I don't care what happens to Miss Yu. It's just the rumors outside. What should I do? Can I still get close to Miss Yu?" Li Xiangyi did not stand up to Zhang Wanyin. After all, she knew that Zhang Wanyin was still weighing on her, Zhang Wanyin thought.
It was Prince Qi's Mansion that let her enter, and now Li Xiangyi of Prince Yong's Mansion is also very satisfied.
"You go directly to see Miss Yu San." Zhang Wanyin thought for a while and said.
"Should I come directly to the door to ask for an audience?" Li Xiangyi was surprised. What if Zhang Wanyin said it before, but now she feels that she is already a concubine of Prince Yong's palace, and her status is different.
"Yes, you came directly to ask for an audience. It happened that Prince Qi went to cause trouble in Xuanpinghou Mansion. Xuanpinghou Mansion is also in chaos now. Yu Xijiao's current situation is pitiful..." Zhang Wanyin paused here.
In fact, she really didn't think Yu Xijiao's situation was pitiable. Every time she met Yu Xijiao, she felt very calm.
But people outside are saying this now.
"It sounds like this happened because of you. You came directly to Yu Xijiao to complain.
." Zhang Wanyin continued, "If she accepts your kindness, you can be her best friend... help me find out about the jade pendant, my jade pendant... you can take another look." Zhang Wanyin said, deliberately putting the jade pendant away.
Place it in front of the table.
Li Xiangyi picked up the jade pendant and looked at it before nodding: "Don't worry, Princess Duan, I will definitely accomplish this."
"If..." Zhang Wanyin was not that optimistic, and her face darkened, "If Yu Xijiao didn't see you... you would have gained your reputation and expressed your goodwill, so you can explain yourself directly in front of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion.
Yu Xijiao is the future Princess Qi, if she cares about what happened in the palace, she will definitely call you in."
Yu Xijiao is difficult to deal with. Are all the coincidences really just coincidences?
Li Xiangyi waited and saw that Zhang Wanyin didn't say anything further, so he smiled: "Don't worry, Princess Duan, if Miss Yu San sees me, I will explain to her that it was not my intention for Prince Qi to be angry with her, and I will apologize to her."
.If she doesn’t see me, I will explain the affairs of Prince Duan’s Mansion in front of the door, indicating that the person I wanted to ask for help at that time was actually not Prince Duan and had nothing to do with Prince Duan. There were several other princes and princes present at the time.”
Now that he has decided to enter Prince Yong's Mansion, Li Xiangyi does not want his name to be associated with Prince Duan. Some things are good or bad, and reputation is very important.
"No!" Zhang Wanyin waved her hand to stop Li Xiangyi, "You don't have to explain what happened in Prince Duan's Mansion, just explain what happened in the palace. This is a misunderstanding."
Some things are getting darker and darker as time goes by. Zhang Wanyin doesn't want Li Xiangyi to involve Prince Duan in this matter anymore. There is no real evidence, so everyone just accepts it. After the marriage decree is issued, there will be no speculation about the prince.
, and then secretly pushed, everyone guessed that it was King Yong.
Thinking about it this way, Li Xiangyi may not be a messenger when he enters Prince Yong's palace.
Losing something in the east and gaining something in the mulberry tree may not be an errand, but it is a delicate situation, like a turtle that has shrunk its neck and cannot find a place to intervene.
Wanting to be Yu Xijiao's lady was actually just a thought on her part, and Li Xiangyi came to her just to prick her heart.
No woman can endure her future husband's flirting with other women, not even herself, nor Yu Xijiao.
Then the only thing left to do is to hammer down...
