Several ladies around him were quiet, and the atmosphere became stiff and strange. The prince and his concubine have been married for several years, and there are no heirs or concubines in the house. Mrs. Fang's words are clearly aimed at the princess.
Think of the scene just in the open hall, it seems that the relationship between the Fang family and the princess is really tense!
All eyes fell on Nangong Yue.
Fang Ziman, who was sitting with Mrs. Fang Sitai, was standing tall with a trace of expectation.
Nangong Yue chuckled and said: "as the old saying goes, if you set up the emperor, you will not make the princes doubt you; if you establish the princes, you will not make the officials doubt you; if you establish your own son, you will not make the common people suspect you. Therefore, when the princes lose their positions, the whole country will be in chaos; if there are no senior officials, the imperial court will be in chaos; if wives and concubines are not divided, the family will be in disorder; if there is no difference between the two, the clan will be in disorder. " Speaking of this, she deliberately stopped for a moment and asked, "Mrs. Fang Si Tai, what do you think?"
I'm choking, madam.
What a "wife and concubine do not divide the family chaos, di Shu no other clan chaos"!
If she refutes, it is to deny the natural status of her eldest son, which is equal to the opposition to the ladies present, and even to the whole ethics. Such a treacherous act can not even protect her. If she should, she is beating her own face. She has just pointed to the concubine and son of the scholar on the stage with consolation and praise
Nangong Yue's eyes swept over Mrs. Fang's and said, "my son's concubine thought that the three fangs of Fang's family had spoiled my wife and killed his wife, but they didn't know the etiquette, so they acted recklessly. Now it seems that the upper beam is not straight, and the lower beam is crooked? "
The ladies around took a breath of cold air. The words of the imperial concubine offended the whole Fang family. The Fang family is the son's mother's family at all costs. The son's concubine can't ignore the son. Is it his will to fall out with the Fang family? Thinking of this, they can't help but feel a little subtle when they look at Mrs. Fang Sitai.
Madame Tian looked at her mother-in-law and saw her tiny jaw. Then she said with a smile: "you are right, princess. Since the old prince was poisoned by his son more than ten years ago, the Fang family has been acting on the top and acting down, ignoring the rules and etiquette, and becoming increasingly arrogant."
It was quiet for a moment.
A lady immediately thought of something and sighed, "well, I think of one thing. I heard that a commoner daughter from the sixth room of the Fang family married Gong's house the year before last. The next year, she gave birth to lin'er two months ago, and her legitimate sons drowned in the lake..." The lady thought about it, and she was in a state of panic.
"Didn't the eldest grandson of the four fangs of the Fang family died of two main rooms? I heard that I was angry by the concubines in the house. I don't believe it. How could my wife be so angry by the humble concubines? Now I want to come here, isn't it true? " Another lady said, thoughtfully looking at Mrs. Fang Sitai, as if wondering whether the other side deliberately opened one eye and closed one eye, conniving at grandson's concubine killing his daughter-in-law.
The eyes of all the women around her were focused on Mrs. Fang Sitai. Her old face turned red and she almost vomited a mouthful of blood. Just as she was about to denounce each other's nonsense, another familiar voice rang out.
"Is there such a thing?" A lady dressed in a lake colored mound said in a startled, frightened heart. Originally, her parents and daughter were discussing with the eldest grandson of the fourth room of the Fang family. Fortunately, they have not exchanged Geng tie yet, and there is still time to repent
"Mrs. Li, it's a rumor. You can't believe it." Mrs. Fang Sidai tried to defend her eldest grandson, but no one was willing to listen to her. All the women were whispering and whispering.
Mrs. Fang Si Tai was so angry that she could not help but clench her hands in her sleeve.
She's out of line!
I thought that she could run on the princess with the jade pillow. Unexpectedly, the princess didn't care about the face of the Fang family. She didn't pay attention to the prince.
It's so arrogant!
At this moment, Mrs. Fang Si Tai really wanted to shoot the case, but she still held back when she thought of the scene in the open hall. The Fang family has lost face today. I'm afraid even the king of Zhennan is dissatisfied with the other family. If he leaves in anger at his birthday party, he is afraid that the relationship between the Fang family and the palace will become worse and worse.
"Grandmother." Fang Ziman anxiously calls for Mrs. Fang Sitai and caresses her chest for her comfort. Then, she took a timid look at Nangong Yue, a pair of beautiful eyes floating a mist, as if to say: how can you treat an old man like this.
Mrs. Fang patted her granddaughter's hand in a placid way, and said with resignation: "the imperial concubine said it was right to spoil my concubine and destroy my wife. It's the root of chaos in the family."
South palace Yue one face is pleased ground says: "square four too madam understand good."
It's too tight, ma'am.
When the Fang family was run to such an extent today, she would not believe that her uncle would not care. The eldest uncle is the son's grandfather. It is safer for him to come forward than for his own family. This time, the uncle will definitely understand that they want to marry man's sister into the palace. In any case, we must not let the imperial concubine dominate! Otherwise, the position of Fang family in southern Xinjiang will be in danger!This is related to the whole Fang family!
Even for the sake of the Fang family and the son of heaven, the uncle will certainly help them!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Fang Sitai settled down. She pretended that she didn't hear the whispers around her. She looked down and watched the play carefully. However, her mind had already gone out of the blue.
Several actors on the stage had already left the stage, and soon the gongs and drums sounded again, and "Mulan joined the army" was sung on the stage, but this time it was the last fold of the play.
At this time, a little servant girl in blue and blue came up the stairs in a hurry. Because of the big drum and small drum in front of the stage, no one paid attention to her.
"Baihui sister..." The little servant girl whispered a few words in Baihui's ear, even if she was calm like Baihui, she could not change her face slightly.
Baihui went to nangongyue's side and told him in a few inaudible volumes: "Prince concubine, the second childe just ran into Miss Zhou of Dingyuan's general mansion."
Nangong Yue held the tea cup in the middle of the air for a moment, but he was not in the mood to drink tea. He put the cup back on the table and left the table.
Nangong Yue didn't need to say anything more. Baihui and that servant girl immediately followed up.
After leaving the theater, the servant girl went to the front to lead the way: "princess, please follow the maid."
Along a blue slate path, the three people came to a quiet bamboo forest. The sound of gongs and drums in the back became more and more distant and lighter. Finally, they couldn't hear it at all
Seeing no one around, Nangong Yue asked the servant girl, "what's going on? How did the second young master run into the girl of Zhou family? "
, a little servant girl, kept on leading the way at the same time, explaining: "the princess of the world, the girl of Chou Da lost the round clothes she used to press the skirt angle. When her sister accompanied her to look for it, she found that there was an Indus tree hanging around two doors. Sister Bai Zhou can't climb trees, so she goes to her wife to get a ladder At that time, the wind was strong, the branches swayed violently, and the ring was swaying in the wind, almost falling. In a hurry, Miss Zhou went to climb a tree and almost fell down. Fortunately, the second young master happened to pass by and caught Miss Zhou... "
Nangong Yue did not speak, saying that Xiao Luan "bumped into" Zhou Rujia, so it was. Xiao Luan was wronged.
It's just that there's something strange about it.
When Miss Zhou came to the palace, she could easily find out where she had been. How could she hang her jade ring on the tree in the front yard, unless someone did it on purpose?
That's the question. Who did it? Did Miss Zhou make up and sing her own performance, or was someone deliberately trying to frame her up? Whether it's the former or the latter, this person has done so many small moves in the palace, which is too disrespectful!
Nangong's eyes are sinking, and there is no more thought. With the little servant girl walking all the way, from the west side to Gui Pu Tang, one can see that Xiao Luan, Zhou Roujia and Bai Zhou are standing at a high wall not far from the two door.
Xiao Luan seems to be a little careless, but he looks at the sky, the tree, and the front yard. His behavior shows obvious manic depression.
Zhou Rujia was standing two or three feet away from Xiao Luan. She looked embarrassed. She kept her head half down and could not see her expression.
Nangong Yue's gaze pauses on Zhou Rujia. In her impression, Miss Zhou didn't look like this dress Wait a minute. This is Xiao Fei's, isn't it?! It seems to be the autumn clothes just made a few days ago.
Xiao Luan and others also noticed the arrival of Nangong Yue. When she came near, several people saluted her one after another.
Nangong Yue didn't talk to them more. He said directly, "let's find a place to talk."
A group of people followed nangongyue to Guipu hall, which was composed of five main rooms with wing rooms on both sides. Nangong Yue took them into the West Wing of Guipu hall.
After they sat down, the room was silent, and Baihui was guarding the door.
"Second brother," Nangong Yue first said to Xiao Luan, "you should not be in the Xing Su Lou?"
Xiao Luan said: "I felt bored with the play and wanted to go to my study to have a chat. When we passed by, we just saw Miss Zhou climbing on the tree. We ran over and saved Miss Zhou."
Nangong Yue doesn't care what Xiao Luan and the two young masters want to do when they go to the study. The point of the problem is that the childe of Tang family and Zhang Jia family was also there just now? So this is not something that the Xiao and Zhou families can pretend never to have happened
Nangong Yue's heart sank again.
Nangong Yue asked again, "where are the three princes of Tang Dynasty and the fifth master of Zhang?"
Xiao Luan replied, "they went back to the plain building." After a pause, he added pleasantly, "sister-in-law, I told them not to talk nonsense."
Nangong Yue doesn't think so. The palace can control the mouths of the servants, but not the mouths of the outsiders. Today, there are so many visitors in the palace, so it is inevitable that they will spread from one to another This matter has something to do with the reputation of the girl's family. Once things get out of the way, Xiao Luan is a man, but it's OK. At most, her reputation will be damaged. She is afraid that she will become a green Buddha.Nangong Yue asked Xiao Luan just now, also want to confirm whether someone is calculating him.
If not, it can be ruled out that Miss Zhou intended to do it. If you think of the jade pendant hanging on the tree, I'm afraid that Miss Zhou is the one who has been calculated.
A sharp light flashed in Nangong Yue's eyes. At this time, magpie quickly walked into the wing room. As soon as he entered the door, he nodded slightly to Nangong Yue.
Magpie'er stepped forward and blessed Nangong Yue. Then she said, "princess, there is a lady who looks furtive when she sees that the maid of the girl on Tuesday has been there before. Without waiting for the woman to ask questions, she ran away in dismay... "
Nangong Yue dropped his eyes and did not speak. After meditating for a moment, he told Bai Zhou to go back to the theater. Then he stood up and said, "Miss Zhou, please follow me to my ear room to talk."
Chou Rou Chia raised her pale face, but she straightened her back. She made such a big mistake when she came to the palace for the first time. She almost had no face to face her mother.
Thinking, her lips trembled. Does the princess think she is a frivolous girl with no manners? Do you think it's she who's scheming with Mr. Xiao
Two people pick curtain into ear room, servant girls were left outside the wing room.
"Miss Zhou," Nangong Yue asked, with a gentle attitude, "when did your huanpei fall?"
Zhou Rujia, who thought she would be censured, was stunned for a moment. Then she took a deep breath and said simply that when she was using the mat, she was accompanied by Bai Zhou to change her clothes because she was splashed with soup. Then she went on: "princess, I think about it carefully later. Before I change my clothes, my huanpei has disappeared." But she remembered that she stroked the train when she got out of the carriage, and the ring was still there. After that, her memory was vague and could not be confirmed.
Zhou Rujia's blue and blue Tuzi is really Xiao Fei's. Nangong Yue raised his eyebrows and immediately caught the key point. He asked, "Miss Zhou, how did you splash the soup on your clothes?"
“……” Zhou Rujia hesitated. Her father was also the second wife, so that her relationship with her two sisters was delicate. But anyway, it's my sister. She is a sister, how good to say that she is not a sister to others.
Nangong Yue naturally saw that, in his eyes, he had a lot of affection for this girl, but on his mouth he said, "but on Tuesday girl?"
Zhou Rujia was stunned and frowned slightly, feeling a little strange. Think about it carefully, the second sister spilled the soup on her dress. Many people saw it on the mat, and it was not surprising that the princess knew it. But if the imperial concubine had already known about it, why did she know it? Is it possible that the princess is based on a certain basis to guess?
A picture flashed through Zhou Rujia's mind. The servant girl of her second sister knelt beside her and wiped the soup from her skirt train with a veil
Zhou roujia suddenly understood something. Her pupils shrank sharply and her body trembled slightly.
So it is!
It was the second younger sister who tried to frame herself. She knew that the ring pendant was the dowry left by her dead grandfather to her mother. She knew how important it was to her. She knew that it was her personal belongings. She deliberately threw it into the front yard. What was her idea
The more she thought about it, the more frightened she was.
No matter what the reason is, it is an indisputable fact that one's reputation is damaged. Zhou rouhui still got her wish!
Nangong Yue sees Zhou Rujia and wants to understand, and he doesn't ask.
She sighed and thought for a moment. She took off a jade bracelet on her left wrist. Then she took Zhou roujia's left hand and put it on for her. She said, "the second uncle bumped into the girl. I, the sister-in-law, will compensate you for him..."
Between the words, the bracelet has been covered with Zhou Rujia's bright wrist, and she has no time to refuse.
The jade bracelet is delicate and pure in texture, green and clear, like a pool of spring water, but in Zhou Rujia's eyes, it is like a shackle, locking her tightly.
She moved her lips and wanted to speak, but her dry throat could not utter a word. She only heard that the princess ordered her maid to send her back to the theater.
Zhou roujia's action was stiff and she left.
She bit her lower lip uneasily. The Zhou family in southern Xinjiang can only be regarded as a new aristocrat, far from a well-known family. In terms of family status, it is not worthy of Zhennan Wangfu. Even compared with the second room, the big house is still weaker. She has no brothers and lost her reputation as a boudoir For the rest of her life, she had to go to the palace as a concubine.
She could imagine that if the palace asked her to enter the mansion as a concubine, to protect the reputation of a sister, and to please the palace, her father would agree.
But --
she is really not reconciled!
She once swore secretly: it doesn't matter if she's almost a family member. She wants to marry a man to be a real lady. She doesn't want to be in such an embarrassing situation as her mother When she was young, she watched her mother weeping in the dark in no one's place, and saw that her mother was forced to live in seclusion by her second aunt
She didn't look down on her mother. She really loved her.
Her grandfather's father was a subordinate of her grandfather, Mr. Zhou. In those years, her grandfather died to save her grandfather in the battlefield, leaving only her mother as a orphan. She was adopted by her grandfather and grew up in the Zhou family. This ring pendant is one of the dowries that my grandfather had painstakingly saved for her mother when she was alive.When his mother was 15 years old, old Zhou would marry his mother. However, at that time, the uncle of Dafang died in the war, and the old master Zhou was grieved and asked his father to live together. At the request of her grandmother, Mrs. Zhou, the mother agreed to marry her father in order to support her
Zhou roujia showed a trace of bitterness on her face and squeezed her handkerchief tightly.
Her servant girl's eyes looked at her girl anxiously. She could only sigh silently in her heart. What she said was unnecessary now. She blamed herself for not stopping the girl from climbing trees at that time It's too late now!
Zhou Rujia was suddenly awakened by the sound of gongs and drums. She looked up and found that the theater had appeared at the end of the road.
The sound of gongs and drums is getting louder and louder
Zhou roujia took a deep breath and tried to return to her usual appearance, gentle and elegant.
At the moment, the theater is singing "the ancient city meeting". Guan Er ye, with a red face, green robe and gold armor, rushes to the stage with a whip in his hand. His eyes are like lightning, and his majestic momentum arises spontaneously and wins the applause of the audience.
Magpie sent Zhou roujia to the theater and left. Zhou and her maid went up the stairs leading to the second floor.
Her two sisters are still sitting in their original seats, but Zhou roujia deliberately does not go to see them. She is afraid that her mood will collapse if she is not careful. She is afraid to look at them. She can't help but wonder what her second sister is trying to do and what role her third sister plays in it!
Zhou roujia meets Xiao Fei's caring eyes. Bai Zhou stands behind Xiao Fei. Obviously, Xiao Fei already knows what happened, but there is no trace of contempt in her eyes. Zhou roujia felt that her heart was almost full of holes. She seemed to have strength again, but at the same time, she could not help feeling sarcastic. Sometimes the sisters who grew up together are not as good as the one-on-one acquaintance
Zhou roujia smiles at Xiao Fei, indicating that she is OK.
At the same time, on the stage, Zhang Fei, with black robes and silver armour and a black face, appears with a long gun. Guan Yu is full of joy and thinks it is the reunion of his brothers after the robbery. Zhang Fei is furious and mistakenly believes that Guan Yu has defected to seek to seize the ancient city.
Zhou Rujia was about to sit down when she heard Zhou Ruhui's voice: "big sister, are you back?"
You can't make people see jokes. Zhou said to herself in her heart. While sitting down, she turned her head to see Zhou rouhui and nodded: "second sister."
"Big sister," said the girl with a caring face on Wednesday, "Why have you been out so long? Are you all right? " With a touch of inquiry in her eyes, she watched carefully.
Zhou Rujia seemed to have been poured a bucket of cold water by the pawn. His heart was chilly and clear. It turns out that this is a conspiracy between their two sisters!
Why?
Why do you do that?!
Repressing her anger, Zhou roujia said meaningfully, "second sister, third sister. After watching the play for a long time, I felt a little noisy, so I went out for a walk."
On the stage on the first floor, Zhang Fei is accusing Guan Yu of surrendering to Cao's enemies, and Guan Yu can only defend himself by raising his sword. For a moment, brother Guan Zhang comes and goes and dances with swords and guns
The drums rumble!
