"Why?" Xie Songhua was puzzled. No matter from which point of view, this was the fastest and most effective solution she could think of.
"There are no secrets in the capital. If your family decides to marry you and Xie Shuhua now, even if it pleases the Holy Emperor, what do you think the Queen and Concubine Gao will think? What will the man who ascends the throne of God think?"
Xie Songhua was dumbfounded, wouldn't it be possible to just find someone to marry?
But in fact, as Yu Ruzhuo said, the Xie family had no intention of letting them see each other as sisters.
The old lady heard that Xie Songhua was feeling better, so she came over to visit him.
This is something that has never happened before. There are not many people in the whole house who can be visited by the old lady.
At this time, he pointed out various deficiencies, first of all, manpower, not counting third-class people, there were only three first-class and second-class people combined, and asked Qi to quickly send two people over.
She also felt that the house was too plain, so she asked Shen's mother to open her own warehouse to add things to Xie Songhua's house.
At this moment, Mrs. Qi showed the magnanimity of a housewife, "She has always been simple, but I didn't pay much attention to her. It was my negligence.
Mother has given you such kindness, and naturally I don’t dare to compare with it. The fourth girl’s room is really quite empty, so I’ll have someone bring over a set of Huanghuali furniture, which is just right for her.”
The old lady was very satisfied. She asked Xie Songhua about her diet in detail and asked the big kitchen to prepare food for her.
As soon as he said this, the entire banquet stage became lively, and there was almost an endless stream of people coming and going.
The attitude of Mrs. Qi and the old lady made Xie Songhua a little confused. Even though the old lady had treated Xie Songhua well before, when had she ever cared about her like this?
What's more, Mrs. Qi's expression was warm almost the whole time, and she was completely different from before.
If it was because of that position, she clearly wanted Xie Shuhua to marry her, so she should be afraid that she would block Xie Shuhua's way.
But as a result, not only did the set of large and small huanghuali furniture move in, but Mrs. Qi also brought big news.
He said that he asked a spiritual master to check the date and found that the tenth day of October was a good time, so he wanted to organize a hair extension ceremony for the sisters.
Judging from the state of the house, this haircut ceremony is not too simple, it looks like it is going to be a big event.
It's only been two days now, and the old lady is already happily discussing with Mr. Qi who to invite to watch the ceremony.
All the sisters in the mansion also came to congratulate Xie Songhua in a lively manner.
In fact, Xie Songhua's birthday is October 15th, but if the haircut ceremony is more important to the family, they will choose a good day and invite all the guests and friends to come and watch the ceremony.
"Fourth sister can be regarded as keeping her guard up." Xie Tu looked at the inside and outside carefully after entering the house. There was only a little joy on his face, not the slightest bit of jealousy. He finally nodded and said, "This was your turn long ago.
.”
Xie Songhua asked someone to make tea, and the two sisters sat together in the living room. Then she raised her eyes and looked at the decoration in the room.
Now the inside and outside of this place look much better than they were at the beginning. Although it cannot be said that everything in Duobao Pavilion is a treasure, none of it is cheap either.
All the furniture in the room has been replaced. Even the chairs the sisters are sitting on are newly sent from the sewing room. The beaded curtain at the partition is worth a thousand taels.
"If you ask me, it's not as quiet and comfortable as before!"
Hearing this, Xie Tu gently held Xie Songhua's hand, pondered for a while before lowering her voice and said: "Fourth sister is not a fool. When things have come to this point, you have to fight even if you don't want to!"
"Sixth sister?" Since the last sentence, Xie Songhua knew that Xie Tu was not really a little girl who didn't know everything.
But she never expected that she would say such words at this time, "Why do you say that?"
There was a seriousness in Xie Tu's eyes that he had never seen before, "Logically speaking, even if there is really any destiny, it can only be one person.
But the rumors outside are divided into two factions. One faction says that you are the real third girl of the Xie family, and the fate of the Phoenix can only be you that day.
The other group said, how could they know that this wrongful embrace was not an arrangement from God? Otherwise, how could the Great Spiritual Master Daoxuan agree with this statement when the third sister was three years old?"
Xie Songhua only knew that there were rumors about Tianfeng's destiny outside, but she didn't know the details here. When she heard Xie Tu said this, she had a guess in her heart. When she looked at the eyes of the girl opposite, she immediately knew whether she had guessed correctly or not.
wrong.
"They are clearly pouring oil into the pot. They are not afraid of grandma and father..."
Xie Tu reached out and squeezed the back of her hand, "Fourth sister, you are two people!"
Xie Songhua received a thunderous initiation and suddenly understood.
I see!
No wonder Mrs. Qi is so generous to her now.
A girl from the Xie family naturally cannot marry two families. No matter which one she marries to, she will bear half the risk, but what if there are two?
One of the princes and third princes will always inherit the throne. No matter which one takes the throne, there will always be one girl from the Xie family who can keep her natal family.
This is simply a sure-fire deal.
Xie Songhua only felt a little cold on his back, and suddenly broke out into a thin layer of sweat.
"So, grandma and father also mean this?"
Although her words were a question, it was clear that they all knew the answer.
If it hadn't been decided above, how could this situation have happened?
As for the hairpin ceremony, there was no news at all before entering the palace, but now I have already posted a message to invite people.
And Xie Shuhua.
Obviously, Xie Yuncang was so tough on the matter of entering the palace and refused to let her go.
But right now, the excitement over Yilan Garden is no less than that at Yanchuntai. If Xie Yuncang objects, how could there be no movement.
Seeing that she was lost in her own thoughts, Xie Tu pushed her hand and said, "Has Fourth Sister seen the two His Highnesses in the palace?"
Xie Songhua came back to his senses and smiled helplessly, "They all fell into the water, so of course they were nowhere to be seen."
"Then let me tell you, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is twenty-five years old this year. Four years ago, he married Zhao's daughter as his concubine and gave birth to a princess. The court evaluated her as having mediocre abilities and eager for quick success.
The other three princes are the sons of Concubine Gao. She is 21 this year. Concubine Gao also gave birth to the seventh son of the emperor. She is 18 this year and is the only concubine to give birth to two princes. She has a transcendent status.
The third prince is humble and polite, has a reputation as a virtuous man, and is quite prestigious among the Qingliu nobles."
"Sixth sister means..."
Xie Tu shook his head gently, "I don't mean it. I'm just a woman who stays behind the scenes. I heard everything about the outside world from my grandmother and uncles talking. I can only tell what I know."
Tell you."
She grabbed Xie Songhua's hand with some force, "The power of the three princes should not be underestimated, but the prince is the crown prince after all. The Gao family is prominent, but the Zhao family is no less generous. If you ask me, these two people can be said to be almost evenly matched.
But Fourth Sister, for this kind of thing, we, the Xie family, can shrink our necks and hide behind us. Anyway, if this move is carried out, the Xie family will be safe and sound.
But what about you? This is related to your future. You must understand it, make a choice, and then fight for it. Otherwise, if you make the wrong choice, nothing will happen to the Xie family in the future, but you will not be able to escape."
Xie Songhua felt an unknown fire burning in her chest, making her so uncomfortable that she could hardly breathe.
She tried her best to suppress the anger in her heart, but she still couldn't help but her eyes turned red. She could only try to curl her lips and said, "Thank you, Sixth Sister, for letting me know. I will definitely remember your love."
Xie Tu sighed quietly, "I know better than anyone what it feels like to be in control."
After Xie Tu left, Xie Songhua sent everyone out and sat alone for a long time before he asked, "Have you known this for a long time?"
