, update the latest chapters as soon as possible!
Zhu Chanyi and others hurried over and saw Yan Ruixue standing opposite Su Xinyi, looking like they were quarreling.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Chanyi hurriedly squeezed into the crowd, and without saying a word, she pulled Su Xinyi behind her and looked up at Yan Ruixue, "Miss Yan, why are you here?"
Yan Ruixue looked at Zhu Chanyi's posture. When she was in the palace, Zhu Chanyi followed Su Xinyi everywhere. Unexpectedly, she was still so protective after leaving the palace. She couldn't help but said sarcastically: "Zhu Chanyi, why are you here?" I haven’t been able to follow Su Xinyi enough in the palace, so I want to continue after leaving the palace?”
Zhu Chanyi's expression suddenly changed, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Su Xinyi say unhurriedly: "Yan Ruixue, if I'm talking about being a follower, it sounds like you have a lot of experience, and you seem to be cultivating your virtue. Gong Shi has learned well, but I don’t know if Miss Li still pays attention to you after leaving Yangde Palace?"
Yan Ruixue's expression changed, "What are you talking nonsense about?"
"Hey, this person doesn't panic if he doesn't do anything wrong. If I lie, why do you look so guilty? Miss Zhu and I are like-minded friends, but do you dare to tell people that you and Li Qingyi are good friends? Do it yourself If someone acts like a bastard, it really depends on who is a bastard." Su Xinyi did not expect that Yan Ruixue would suddenly come to cause trouble.
When she was in Yangde Palace, she could only live in the back hall because of her status. On weekdays, she was with Zhu Chanyi, Wang Yingyao and the others, so she couldn't get close to them. She didn't expect that after leaving the palace, she would really be a monster. Climbed out.
"What kind of bastard?"
Shang Yuqing lost sight of his sister-in-law in the blink of an eye, and hurriedly led people out to look for her. Unexpectedly, he heard such a sentence as soon as he got closer. When he looked up, he saw that the speaker was Su Xinyi. Naturally, he was very unhappy and asked There was inevitably a hint of questioning in his words.
Su Xinyi felt very unlucky as soon as she saw Shang Yuqing. She hadn't seen her for a long time, but she didn't expect to meet her when she went out. The good mood of the day was gone.
"Sister-in-law, you are here. She bullied me and called me a bitch. You have to make the decision for me!" Yan Ruixue immediately grabbed his sister-in-law and said angrily.
Hearing this, Shang Yuqing looked at Su Xinyi, and couldn't help but remember that his brother had choked with her several times because of her, and the anger in his heart rose, "Who do I think it is? It turns out to be Miss Su. After all, she grew up in the countryside. Yes, very sharp-tongued.”
Zhu Chanyi was confused by what she heard. She looked a little confused at Shang Yuqing, so she turned to look at Guo Yunrong, "Yunrong, who is this?"
Guo Yunrong spoke in a low voice, "Yan Ruixue calls her sister-in-law. Who do you think she is? Her husband is Yan Shao, the censor of Youqiandu, and her mother is the princess of Pingjing County."
Zhu Chanyi frowned. This was a bit troublesome. The Yan family was not afraid, but the princess of Pingjing County was not easy to deal with.
Just as he was thinking about this and wondering how to open his mouth to smooth things over, Su Xixian stepped forward, looked at Shang Yuqing and said softly: "Mrs. Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time, you still look so charming. I don't know what offended my sixth sister. Madam, why do you always sneer at my sixth sister every time we meet? Now in front of everyone, please speak clearly. If it is really my sixth sister's fault, I will definitely tell the elders in the family and let them be detained. Let the sixth sister come to apologize to the young lady."
Su Xinyi looked at Su Xixian in surprise. Today was the day for her to meet each other. She showed her little claws like this, so she was not afraid of making the marriage dirty.
Su Xixian didn't look at Su Xinyi, but just stared at Shang Yuqing. She had long been disliked by her. She was always in trouble with their Xiaoliu at her age. How shameless?
If she doesn’t want it, then tear it off for her!
Su Xixian's words were not easy to accept. First, let everyone know that Shang Yuqing had targeted Su Xinyi several times before. This time he came up indiscriminately and talked about her affairs in the countryside, which shows his character.
He also asked Shang Yuqing to reveal the grudge between the two, but if there was really evidence, Shang Yuqing would still carry a gun and a stick every time. If there was really evidence, he would have pushed their Xiao Liu to the ground!
Therefore, Su Xixian is not afraid at all. Anyway, she can't provide evidence or give a reason, and it's not her who is embarrassed!
Zhu Chanyi rolled her eyes and immediately said, "What Miss Su Wu said is that Madam Yan Shao must not speak half of what she said. After all, it is related to other people's reputation. You'd better explain it clearly in front of everyone."
Shang Yuqing's brows furrowed tightly. The more he looked at Su Xinyi, the more disgusted he became. Being forced like this, he felt resentful and immediately said, "If she hadn't seduced my brother, my brother and Runyi would have been together." How can the princess's marriage be full of twists and turns..."
Before Shang Yuqing could say anything, he slapped her on the face!
Mrs. Su Si's face was full of anger, she pointed at Shang Congqing and said: "Mrs. Yan, I think you are a junior, I won't care about you, this slap will make you sober up. My Xinyi family has nothing to do with your family's eldest son, so I don't care. It sounds nice, you regard your brother as a treasure, and based on your words and deeds, no one from our Xinyi family will enter your house!"
As soon as Mrs. Su Si showed up, Mrs. Yan over there also got the news and hurried over. Seeing the unkind expressions of her daughter-in-law and daughter, and then looking at the angry faces of the group of people opposite, she felt really weak.
The foundation of the Yan family is shallow, that is, the son succeeded in taking the position of censor, and unexpectedly married a high-class daughter-in-law. As a mother-in-law, she usually has difficulty in maintaining airs. She accepted all these for the sake of her son, but she did not expect this The daughter-in-law was so capable of causing trouble that her teeth itched with hatred. She pretended she didn't see the slap and smiled directly at the Fourth Madam to apologize, "Four Madam, please don't be angry. The younger generation in the family is innocent. I will definitely go back and teach her well."
When Mrs. Su Si saw Mrs. Yan's smiling face, her anger was still unyielding. She tried her best to calm down and said: "Mrs. Yan, our two families have always been in harmony with each other. In the past, there was no injustice. Now, there is no injustice. First, your daughter made a mockery. My daughter, followed by your daughter-in-law, is like this, how did we offend your Yan family? "
Mrs. Yan didn't expect that her daughter was involved here. She always thought that Shang Yuqing was causing trouble, so she couldn't help but turn around and glare at her daughter.
Yan Ruixue met her mother's eyes and flinched before daring to act like a monster, but she was still unconvinced and couldn't help but get angry again.
Su Xinyi is just a country girl, why?
Shang Yuqing was not convinced and wanted to argue. How could he swallow this? As a result, he was glared at by his mother-in-law. Shang Yuqing recalled that her husband's concubinage and her mother-in-law were fanning the flames. At this moment, she was still on someone else's side. She immediately brushed Yan Ruixue's hand away and left.
Everyone:...
Oh, it is indeed remarkable to be born in a county prince's palace.
Mrs. Yan did not expect that her daughter-in-law would not give her any face. She was so angry that her vision went dark. Yan Ruixue was so frightened that she could not care about Su Xinyi and others, so she quickly helped her mother leave.
The rest of the people looked at me and looked at you, and they all felt that Su Xinyi was pitiful. This was really an unreasonable disaster.
After something like this happened, everyone lost interest in outing, so they all said goodbye and left.
The third lady was talking to Mother Yin in the brocade shed set up over there. She didn't know what had happened yet. Knowing that everyone was going back, she said goodbye to Mother Yin. Over there, Yin Ru came to pick up her mother and greeted the third lady. Very polite and polite.
On the carriage back, the third lady realized what had happened. She was so angry that her face turned black. She looked at the fourth lady and said, "Why didn't you ask the girl to call me?"
The fourth lady then said: "Third sister-in-law, you are talking to Mrs. Yin. How can you disturb this important matter? It's just a dispute of words, so Xin Yi didn't suffer. I saw that the Prince of Pingjing County repeatedly targeted Xin Yi. This incident You have to tell the lady about it.”
The third lady nodded, "I want to say that Prince Pingjing manages the family affairs really well. The married daughter actually dares to put on the airs of her parents' family and leave her mother-in-law alone. It's really amazing. There are so many people in the capital. I have never seen a lady from a famous family who is so powerful. Fourth brother and sister, don’t worry, I see that Mrs. Yan will definitely not give up, and there will be some trouble between these two families. "
The Fourth Madam didn't care about the quarrels between the two families. She looked at the Third Madam and said, "What kind of daughter is born from someone's family? Look at the people in Pingjing County Prince's Palace who have eye problems. You must say that we Xinyi are related to their heirs. Isn’t this lying? When did our Xin Yi associate with that Shang Junyan? When the crown princess is chosen, Xin Yi must hurry up to avoid being caught by these villains, which is really bad luck. "
The third lady also nodded, "Yes, just settle down on the marriage."
The fourth lady didn't want to think about these boring things anymore. She looked at the third lady and asked, "Third sister-in-law, look at the Yin family. Can this marriage happen?"
The third lady became energetic when she talked about this, "Mrs. Yin is really good-tempered and doesn't speak loudly. I think if Xixian really gets married, Mrs. Yin won't be able to suppress her. If this is the case, I feel I feel a little sorry."
Fourth Lady:…
The third lady sighed, "Yin Ru is tall, young and promising. What happened to the martial artist? Our family is from the military. I think the kid is good, but he talks a little. Fourth brother and sister, what do you think?"
The Fourth Madam nodded and said, "Today she looks good. She has a rough and tumble, and she knows how to take care of Xixian. However, getting married is a lifelong matter. Although Mrs. Yin has a good temper, the third sister-in-law still has to ask the third brother carefully. ask."
The third lady curled her lips and said, "I won't ask any more. I, as the legitimate mother, have done my best. Aunt Weng is still crying and complaining that I want to suppress her daughter and deliberately choose a bad marriage for her."
The third lady became angry when she talked about it. She had already made up her mind. If Aunt Weng dared to talk nonsense again, who would care about Su Xixian's marriage?
The fourth lady also frowned when she mentioned Aunt Weng. Although Aunt Weng was favored in the past, she had always kept a low profile in the mansion. However, since the last marriage between Xixian and the Weng family failed, she seems to have changed.
It's just that this is the housework of the third room, and the fourth wife can't say anything, so she has to keep her mouth shut.
On the other side, Su Xinyi was also asking Su Xixian.
Su Xixian didn't have the shyness of a younger daughter on her face, and she said bluntly: "I think it's okay, there's nothing to fault."
Su Xinyi glanced at Su Xixian.
Su Xixian was happy when she met Su Xinyi's eyes, "Why do you look at me like that?"
Su Xinyi said: "I thought the fifth sister would have many opinions."
For example, how about Yin Ru, how about Mrs. Yin, she can write a policy review from appearance to words and deeds, and there are many places to look at. But I didn't expect that Su Xixian, who has always valued these things, could finish it with just one sentence this time.
Su Xixian smiled, "Sixth sister, I now understand that there are many things that are not as good as saying more. With my status, since I don't want to marry a concubine's daughter-in-law in a wealthy family, I can only find a middle-class family like this. The Yin family is very outstanding. My father thinks carefully about me and my mother works hard for me. What else can I be dissatisfied with? I met Yin Ru, who is also handsome and behaves in accordance with etiquette, that's enough."
People can't ask for too much. The more you ask, the less you get.
Su Xinyi looked at the smile on Su Xixian's face and knew that what she said was true. She smiled, "Fifth sister, you can think like this, and you will definitely live a good life in the future."
"Of course!" Su Xixian raised her head slightly and said with a smile.
She used to compare with Su Jingmo, comparing everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation, but when she grew up, she knew that there was one thing she couldn't compare with, that is, birth.
When her aunt was willing to commit herself to her father as a concubine, it was destined that they would be inferior to each other in this life.
Although the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children is not valued much in the Su family, it is taken very seriously by people outside.
Otherwise, the ladies who come to inquire about Su Jingmo's marriage are all looking for their legitimate children, but it is different for her.
Who can she blame?
She can only straighten her back and move forward.
People have different fates. Although Xiaoliu is also a illegitimate child, she is the only flesh and blood of the fourth uncle, and is also registered by the fourth aunt. To put it bluntly, her weight is heavier than Su Jingmo.
Because Su Jingmo has an elder brother, their third room has an heir, but everything in the fourth room belongs to Xiaoliu.
When Su Xinyi just took Su Jingmo back, she was still a little repulsive and envious, but now that they have been together for a long time, she just thinks that this is what Xiaoliu deserves, and she has suffered too much in the past.
When they were living in luxury in the Duke's Mansion, she suffered in the mountains and fields.
Weng Xixian had no objection to the marriage. After the Third Lady discussed it with the Third Master, when the Yin family sent a message to invite a matchmaker to come, the Third Lady agreed.
For a while, Su Xinyi had nothing to do. No one knew what the Crown Princess selection palace was thinking. There was no movement for several days. Su Xixian had passed the small engagement, so she simply went out for a walk.
The Fourth Lady did not stop her this time. Xiaoliu had been staying at home for a while, so it was time for her to go out for a walk. She also gave her a handful of silver coins to buy snacks.
Su Xinyi was so happy that she changed into men's clothes and went out with the silver given by her mother. After working non-stop before and after the New Year, there was really no time for anyone to go out shopping.
First go to the teahouse for tea, order a pot of clear tea, book a seat on the second floor and sit at the table by the window, listen to the storyteller in the teahouse, who was so excited, and she even gave him a reward.
The big teapot went upstairs and downstairs, constantly refilling tea for everyone.
Su Xinyi didn't drink the big bowl of tea, but ordered a pot of tea. She leaned against the windowsill in men's clothes, holding her chin with one hand and holding tea with the other, humming a little tune, looking relaxed and comfortable.
On the street opposite the teahouse, Shang Junyan walked back with a gloomy face after coming out of the government office. After a few steps, he suddenly raised his head and saw Su Xinyi in such a comfortable scene.
Thinking about the constant fighting at home because of her in the past few days, the eldest sister is now staying at her parents' home and refusing to return to her husband's home. I don't know what the Yan family thinks, and they haven't called anyone. His mother also asked him to find Yan Shao.
He didn't know what happened, how could he talk to Yan Shao?
But he knew that this matter was related to Su Xinyi.
Shang Junyan immediately turned a corner and walked towards the teahouse.
Su Xinyi was listening happily, humming a little tune with her eyes closed, and suddenly felt someone approaching. She immediately opened her eyes and was stunned when she saw Shang Junyan.
The two hadn't seen each other for a long time. Last time they parted unhappily. Su Xinyi felt very strange. This time she went out on the street honestly and didn't cause any trouble. She just found a teahouse to drink tea. How could she meet Shang Junyan?
This is weird!
"Oh, the Shang prince came to visit. I wonder what's the matter?" Su Xinyi hesitated for a moment. Seeing Shang Junyan's frown, she didn't think of Shang Yuqing for a while. When he opened his mouth, she immediately understood.
Su Xinyi's face was not good. She looked at Shang Junyan and said, "I advise you to go back and persuade Madam Yan. After all, you embarrassed your mother-in-law and left her alone. Such a thing is not acceptable to any lady."
Shang Junyan suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. "What did you say?"
Su Xinyi knew that Shang Yuqing would definitely be in trouble after returning that day, but she didn't expect that Madam Yan was also a powerful person. This drove her daughter-in-law back to her parents' home.
Tsk!
I was very happy. Su Xinyi's mood became particularly good at this moment. She asked Shang Junyan to sit down and ordered him a pot of tea. Then she told him in detail about the day when Yan Ruixue had trouble with her and Shang Yuqing stepped forward to help, which resulted in a mess.
After Shang Junyan heard it, he was completely numb.
Su Xinyi looked at him, "tsk", and said with a smile: "Shang Junyan, I have said everything I should say. It is absolutely fair and just, not a word more or less. There were many people present at the time, you can go and ask. Later, your sister was so angry that her mother-in-law fainted, and Yan Ruixue was only concerned about her mother and didn't bother to bother me."
Shang Junyan wiped his face and looked at Su Xinyi for a while, not knowing what to say.
Su Xinyi poured herself a cup of tea, "I said, you should be more careful in the future. When we meet, we will act like we don't know each other, so as not to prevent your sister from always thinking that I am seducing you. For my reputation and your purity, from now on, we will fight each other on the road. Walk half way, okay brother? Just treat it like I’m begging you.”
Shang Junyan wiped his face vigorously and looked at Su Xinyi, "I rejected the marriage to Princess Runyi."
Su Xinyi looked at Shang Junyan when he heard this, "Why are you telling me this? If your mother and your sister heard this, I would jump into the river and not be able to wash it off."
Shang Junyan was silent for a long time and then said: "I don't know who to talk to. Suddenly I feel that there are some things that I can only talk to you."
"No, please don't." Su Xinyi stood up immediately, "We don't get along, and we have swords in our lives. Every time we meet, we kill one thousand enemies and harm ourselves eight hundred. Can you just let me go?"
Shang Junyan wiped his face vigorously, stood up and said, "I understand. One last thing I want to tell you is that I plan to go out. I really can't stay in Beijing anymore."
Before Su Xinyi could react, she saw Shang Junyan turning around to leave with a lonely look on his face. She looked at him with a hint of softness and said, "You may not be clean if you hide away. I will watch your whole life." Things are uncertain, and there is no peace for a moment.”
"Anyone you marry is cheating others. I have no intention of getting married in this life." Shang Junyan turned back to look at Su Xinyi, "I know you entered the palace to stand for election. Do you really want to enter the East Palace?"
"What do you care about me? Whether I get in or not has nothing to do with you. Besides, I'm not as indecisive as you. I can neither resist your mother's tyranny nor control your sister's selfishness. You are like a rat in a bellows caught in the middle. Both sides are angry. You said that you were once a famous official, but you live like this. Tsk, I really look down on you."
"You... those words are too unpleasant to hear." Shang Junyan was so angry that he didn't leave and sat back down again.
"Good medicine is bitter and good for the disease. It doesn't matter if you don't listen to it, it has nothing to do with me." Su Xinyi stared at Shang Junyan, "Why did you sit down again? Aren't you leaving?"
"Su Xinyi? It's really you!"
Su Xinyi had a bad premonition when she heard the sound. When she turned around, she saw King Rong running up, making a clanging sound on the stairs.
Su Xinyi was afraid of being disturbed, so she booked a private room on the second floor to enjoy the peace and quiet. Little did she know that first Shang Junyan came up, and now King Rong came up. She felt that this private room was fake!
She was so angry that she asked the shopkeeper to refund the money!
"His Royal Highness King Rong, why are you here?" Su Xinyi stood up and asked.
Shang Junyan also stood up to greet him, "We have met His Royal Highness King Rong."
King Rong looked at Shang Junyan, then at Su Xinyi, and rolled his eyes, "Why are you drinking tea together?"
"A chance encounter!"
"Wei Chen came to ask the county chief about something."
Su Xinyi:......
Shang Junyan:......
The two of them just don’t have a tacit understanding!
King Rong looked even more uncomfortable. He didn't look like it was okay. "Su Xinyi, you are not honest. The candidate for the crown princess in the palace has not been chosen yet. How can you go on a blind date in private? Brother, hurry up." Come on! Su Xinyi is on a blind date in private!"
Su Xinyi felt a chill in her heart when she heard footsteps coming up the stairs again, and soon the face of His Royal Highness appeared in front of them.
Su Xinyi wished she could kick Prince Rong out of the window. She felt a little guilty for some reason, but she still saluted His Highness the Crown Prince and said, "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
"I pay my respects to His Highness the Crown Prince!" Shang Junyan bowed and saluted.
Yan Junchu's eyes fell on the two of them, and finally looked like Su Xinyi, "Miss Six, are you on a blind date?"
Su Xinyi immediately said: "Your Highness, how can you believe what His Highness King Rong said? A dog's mouth can't spit out ivory. This is pure slander. My daughter just met Prince Shang by chance!"
King Rong was scolded by Su Xinyi and immediately dismantled her, "Brother, don't believe her. That's not what Shang Junyan said just now!"
