443: Killing without a Knife

With the Queen protecting her, Su Xinyi was really relaxed. Seeing the Queen's actions, so many people in the main hall of Yuanhui Palace couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. Prince Rong followed the Crown Prince to do things, and now the Queen, the biological mother, also wanted to protect the Crown Princess for her son. It seems that the Queen and her son are determined to be in the same mind with the East Palace.

In this way, with the support of the Queen, the legitimate mother, the Crown Prince's position is even more unbreakable.

In this way, everyone looked at Concubine Li with a very subtle look, and even You Xiangru was a little uneasy now.

After You Xiangru came in, she had already suppressed her presence very much, but she couldn't stand the Queen and Concubine Li fighting and dragging her out. Even if You Xiangru was very dissatisfied in her heart, she didn't dare to show it at all.

You Xiangru has been living with her tail between her legs for the past few months. When she married the King of Xiang, she thought very clearly that she was afraid that the King of Xiang would only hate her and not like her, so she tried her best to please her after she married him, even suppressing her disgust in her heart, and taking good care of Fuyun, the concubine.

When the news that Fuyun might be related to the King of Yi came out, she really laughed in her dreams. She thought that Fuyun would capsize without her doing anything.

Who knew that at this time, when she saw that her relationship with the King of Xiang had made some progress because of her kindness to Fuyun, the King of Xiang suddenly treated Fuyun better than before. You Xiangru thought that she had always been a person who was good at judging the situation and tolerant, but she couldn't help it at this time.

Because she couldn't hold back her emotions at this time, Fuyun caught her handle and accused her fiercely in front of the King of Xiang, which made her hard work in the past few months go to waste, and she was accused of hypocrisy and cruelty by the King of Xiang.

You Xiangru couldn't bear it anymore, so she confronted Fu Yun directly. Now, she pushed King Xiang further and further away.

You Xiangru had never suffered such a loss since she was born. In such an occasion today, King Xiang wanted her to pretend to be sick and take leave, but of course she refused. The two of them had a quarrel because of this.

Now she entered the palace as she wished, but was picked out by the Queen and roasted on the fire. Concubine Li hated her and didn't even say a word for her. You Xiangru didn't need to look to know that she would become a joke in everyone's eyes.

But she didn't care. As long as she was given a chance, she could turn over. She just had such good patience. She would continue to fight with them. She wanted to see whether King Xiang could protect Fu Yun with the matter of King You hanging over her head!

You Xiangru lowered her head slightly, and everyone couldn't see her face. They just thought she was afraid and worried because of the previous things. Su Xinyi looked at You Xiangru thoughtfully.

Zhu Chanyi said softly to Su Xinyi, "Do you think Princess Xiang regrets it now?"

Su Xinyi shook her head slightly, "It's hard to say. People who can do such things should be very resolute. It's not easy to make her regret it."

Zhu Chanyi felt that You Xiangru should regret it. She talked to Su Xinyi softly, "You said that in the matter of Prince Yi, You Xiangru was the unlucky one who was calculated, and Fu Yun was Prince Yi's man. I heard that after the incident, Prince Xiang not only did not sever his relationship with Fu Yun, but even protected him more."

Su Xinyi: ...

If this is true, Prince Xiang is probably really crazy.

Although You Xiangru was blamed for her own mistakes and did not deserve sympathy, at this moment, if Zhu Chanyi's words were true, Su Xinyi felt a little bit of pity.

Unexpectedly, Prince Xiang was actually a lovesick person. No wonder Concubine Li looked abnormal today. It would be strange if she was in a good mood after encountering such a thing.

At this time, the eunuch in the front hall came to pass on the message that His Majesty ordered to prepare for the banquet.

The Queen immediately ordered people to prepare, and the hall became busy all of a sudden.

Su Xinyi and Zhu Chanyi walked to the side, and Tu Jingjia followed. She whispered: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, I heard that Li Taishi was ill."

Ill?

Su Xinyi looked at Tu Jingjia, "When did it happen? I didn't hear about it before."

"I just saw my mother, and what my mother told me was what happened today." Tu Jingjia whispered, looked around quietly, and then said: "I heard that Master Li Er was going to be driven out of the house by Master Li."

Su Xinyi: ...

Zhu Chanyi was also shocked, "Really? Master Li only has this one son, and he is going to be driven out of the house? What did Master Li Er do?"

Today's incident can still make Master Li sick, it seems that the matter is not small.

Zhu Chanyi and Su Xinyi are both military families, so they are not as quick to get news about civil affairs as the Tu family, which is also a civil service family.

Tu Jingjia said, "The specifics are not very clear. It seems that Li Taishi wants Miss Li Qingyi to break off the marriage and marry someone arranged by Li Taishi, but Mr. Li Er disagrees."

Su Xinyi heard this and suddenly remembered what Li Qingyi said to her. Li Taishi forced Li Qingyi to marry, which shows that Li Taishi has run out of tricks because of Li Ji's matter.

This is naturally good news for her, but thinking of Li Qingyi, if she hadn't reminded herself at the beginning, they wouldn't have made such a precise arrangement later.

Su Xinyi secretly remembered it in her heart and decided to ask someone to go back and inquire carefully. If it is true, she will repay Li Qingyi's favor.

She can't let her be forced to ruin her life. Although the marriage arranged by Mr. Li Er and his wife for their daughter is not the richest family, it is the best family for Li Qingyi.

But for the sake of his eldest son and his daughter, Taishi Li is filling the hole with the young and old of the second family of the Li family. Wouldn’t his conscience hurt?

They are all their own sons and grandchildren. Since it is about Li Ji, why not let the eldest son's children get married?

In the final analysis, Taishi Li knew that the arranged marriage was probably not good.

At this time, she listened to Zhu Chanyi saying to Tu Jingjia: "If it is true, Li Qingyi is so pitiful. Speaking of which, the second wife of the Li family is really unlucky to have such a father."

Tu Jingjia was more reserved than Zhu Chanyi, so she said, "I hope Miss Li can overcome this difficulty and have a smooth journey in the future."

While the three of them were talking, they heard the announcement of His Majesty's arrival and immediately stood with everyone to greet him.

His Majesty entered the main hall, and Su Xinyi saluted with everyone.

His Majesty and the Queen walked up to the throne hand in hand, looked at everyone and said: "No courtesy, stay on your own."

Everyone stood up to thank him and then took their seats one by one.

Su Xinyi sat with the prince like the previous year. The two couples looked at each other and smiled in unison.

Su Xinyi felt many eyes around her falling on her. She tried her best not to look strange and sat upright.

Yan Jun secretly cooperated with Xin Yi when he first saw this. The couple's bodies were as straight as a benchmark, and other people's eyes slowly turned away.

Su Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief, and Yan Junchu heard clearly from the side. At this moment, he controlled himself not to laugh too obviously, and said softly to Xin Yi: "Don't worry, it's okay."

"I'm not worried, I just find it troublesome." Su Xinyi said her complaints seriously.

Yan Junchu lowered his head slightly to hide the smile on his lips and said, "Your eldest brother and the others have arrived in the capital."

Su Xinyi's eyes lit up, "I came here to eat some food today, and I didn't even have a chance to talk to my aunt and mother. I don't know the news yet."

"They don't know yet, and I just got the news."

Su Xinyi felt very happy, at least he could come back on New Year's Eve and spend the New Year's Eve with his family.

"Did your father respond here?" Su Xinyi asked softly.

Yan Junchu nodded, "Of course, my father asked them to go back to their respective homes first and announce the call after the new year."

"Father is truly a wise king." Su Xinyi said with a smile.

Yan Junchu glanced sideways at Su Xinyi. The couple stopped talking when the empress began to speak New Year's messages, and listened carefully to the holy teachings.

His Majesty spoke less this year than last year, and his energy did not look as good as last year. He said a few words briefly and then started the banquet.

So the queen and her concubines made a toast, followed by the prince and other princes, and then the courtiers, and the palace became lively.

Su Xinyi changed her posture slightly, and felt that her right arm was suddenly turned, and then a cup of tea was spilled on her skirt. Immediately afterwards, a palace servant knelt down to apologize.

Su Xinyi glanced at Forsythia, who immediately stepped forward to hold the palace man, and said with a smile: "It's better not to disturb the Holy Master during the palace banquet. Sister, you should go out with me first, what do you think? ?”

After saying this, Delphinium also came over from the other side, and the two of them helped the person out, one on the left and the other on the right. The palace man seemed to want to say something, and Su Xinyi's eyes looked at Delphinium, who quickly took out the handkerchief and pressed it on On her mouth, he made a gesture of wiping the corners of her lips.

Aunt She's usual teachings were still very effective. Su Xinyi glanced at the hem of her skirt and splashed more than a dozen drops of tea. It was hard to tell whether it was unintentional or intentional.

"What's wrong?" Yan Junchu realized something was wrong before and got away.

Su Xinyi looked up at the prince and said with a smile: "It's a small incident. It's okay now. Your Highness will go and do your work first. I will talk to you later."

Yan Junchu frowned slightly, then smoothed it over and whispered, "Don't worry, don't worry if something happens."

"I know, please rest assured, Your Highness."

Yan Junchu really didn't feel at ease. Ever since Xin Yi married him, he had always been considerate of him, but his temper had been much restrained. He knew it very well.

As soon as the prince left, Zhu Chanyi called Tu Jingjia over and pretended to be toasting, and asked with concern: "Are you okay, sister-in-law?"

Su Xinyi met the two worried looks and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't worry."

Tu Jingjia said softly from the side: "I was on the opposite side, and I just raised my head to see things clearly. When the palace lady came to you, she paused, and there was a trace of hesitation on her face. I was curious, and then I saw her hand holding the tea tray trembling slightly. "

Su Xinyi didn't expect to be seen by Tu Jingjia. She thought about it and said, "This palace lady was hesitating before. She was probably thinking about how much tea soup to pour on me."

"You can still joke, I'm going to be pissed to death. Who is so bold? A palace maid would not be rude to you." Zhu Chanyi said.

Su Xinyi said: "It's hard to talk about this now. I've already stayed here. I'll find out when I ask later."

Zhu Chanyi was worried, "I'd better stay here with you until His Highness comes back. It's really uneasy."

Tu Jingjia also nodded, picked up the tea cup, poured a cup of tea for Su Xinyi, and said with a smile: "I just happened to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha, so I wish my sister-in-law all the best and peace and prosperity next year."

"This is good." Zhu Chanyi smiled.

Su Xinyi picked up the tea cup and took a sip, then smiled at Tu Jingjia and said, "Then I'll borrow some good words from my sixth brother and sister."

Ji Yun looked at Su Xinyi from a distance, talking and laughing happily, and the look on his face was even more ugly. At this time, King Wu happened to come back, and when he saw the look on Ji Yun's face, he couldn't help but stop.

Ji Yun raised her head suddenly and met the surprised and disappointed eyes of King Wu, and she became a little nervous.

Although she didn't like this marriage, she had already married King Wu, and her family still needed his help, so she couldn't be like before. She tried to force a smile, but before she could speak, she saw King Wu turned and left.

Ji Yun's heart sank, and then she heard a sarcastic laugh from the side. She didn't need to look to know it was You Xiangru.

She was pretending not to hear, but You Xiangru was not willing to give up. She heard her say, "Third sister-in-law, I can't believe that the harmonious marriage you mentioned is like this. Oh, how did you laugh at me at the beginning? It seems that you can only say such vicious words because of your personal experience."

"You..."

"Third sister-in-law, I advise you to restrain yourself. This is not the Prince of Wu's Mansion." You Xiangru smiled even sweeter. When Ji Yun looked down on her and mocked her with a condescending look, she didn't expect that she would see such a scene one day, right?

What a joke.

Ji Yun simply turned her head away and didn't look at You Xiangru.

But You Xiangru refused to let her go and continued, "Third sister-in-law, you were showing off to me at the beginning that Third Brother treated you as a treasure in his palm. It turns out that a treasure in the palm is like this. Then I really opened my eyes. You people in the capital really know how to play. We people in Luzhou dare not compare."

Ji Yun gritted her teeth.

You Xiangru felt very happy when she saw her like this. Everyone was not a good person. Why could she treat herself like a fairy and look down on her? If Ji Yun was really as she said, she would accept it. It was not glorious for her to marry the King of Xiang. It was because the King of Wu personally asked for Ji Yun to marry her. The two of them were two living contrasts.

But now...

She saw that Ji Yun was afraid that there were not many truths in what she said. If she got the chance, You Xiangru would have to vent her anger. She had been holding back since she was ridiculed by Ji Yun. It had been several months. Today, she finally got a chance to vent her anger.

Happy.

"Third sister-in-law, I heard that Lord Ji has a close relationship with King Yi. How can Lord Ji be so stubborn? Just like our Aunt Fu, he has to be with King Yi. I don't know what will happen in the future. Third sister-in-law, you don't have to worry. Maybe Lord Ji will be lucky." You Xiangru said slowly.

Ji Yun was almost fainted with anger. This little bitch killed people without using a knife!
