Chapter 349 The Romantic Widow 47
This time, the peace talks between the two countries went very smoothly.
After the Dasheng Kingdom's mission left the capital, Su Yun was promoted to another level. In just two years, Su Yun had reached the rank of Jiuqing, which was very rare at his age.
However, some rumors slowly spread in the capital, saying that Su Yun's wife was transformed by a flower demon. With the help of the flower demon, Su Yun could rise to prominence and have a prosperous official career.
This word soon reached the ears of the Queen Mother. That day, the Queen Mother saw Prince Xie and asked him.
"There is a rumor in the capital that Lady Jiang is the reincarnation of a flower demon with a peerless appearance. Have you seen her true face?"
Mentioning Jiang Qingxue, Prince Xie felt mixed feelings in his heart. That day at Zuixianjiu, he saw with his own eyes Su Yun helping Jiang Qingxue get out of the carriage. Everywhere he passed, passers-by looked at her sideways.
"She is indeed beautiful. It is not an exaggeration to say that she has captivated a country."
The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes and asked.
"According to what you see, Mrs. Jiang is a flower demon?"
Prince Xie didn't notice the Queen Mother's eyes and smiled.
"Back to the Queen Mother, those ignorant ordinary people who had never seen much of the world were shocked when they suddenly saw a beautiful woman. In addition, Mrs. Jiang is accustomed to using some trivial skills, so there was news about the Flower Demon."
At some point, the Empress Dowager transferred her hostility towards Su Yun to Jiang Qingxue. The more Su Yun became more prominent in the court, the more the Empress Dowager hated her. The three-year period of national mourning had just passed, and the Queen Mother couldn't wait to announce the entry of the female family members into the palace.
Jiang Qingxue also received the post, saying that there was a flower viewing party in the palace. She only glanced at it lazily and threw it aside.
"No good things come into the palace, and good things don't come into the palace."
Ever since she knew that the Queen Mother had dirty thoughts towards Su Yun, she became hostile to this young widow who was not yet thirty. Although she was also a widow herself, she never provoked married men.
The flower-viewing banquet was still held in the Imperial Garden. There was a large lake in the Imperial Garden. It was summer at this time, and the lake was full of colorful hibiscus. Along the lake were pink willows and willows, as gorgeous as brocade.
The female relatives were sitting in the pavilion in the middle of the lake admiring the flowers. Although they could not listen to the opera as usual, the cool breeze was blowing and the flowers were fragrant and the birds were singing, but they still felt very comfortable.
The Queen Mother turned the ring in her hand with a look of longing on her face.
"What a beautiful scene. It's a pity that it lacks a piano player. To tell you the truth, ever since I listened to Lady Jiang's song that year, I still can't forget it."
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, a lady immediately responded.
"Why didn't Mrs. Jiang come today?"
"Ms. Jiang's piano skills are indeed superb. It's a pity that I don't have good eyesight and haven't seen the beautiful scenery that day."
The Queen Mother raised her eyes and said in a faint tone.
"The Ai family also invited her today, but she didn't come because she wasn't feeling well. I don't know if she was really sick or just didn't want to come."
When everyone heard this, they all started laughing, not wanting to cause trouble by talking too much.
Although they looked down on Jiang Qingxue from the bottom of their hearts, they felt that she was just a beautiful woman with some minor skills. In terms of family background, knowledge and accomplishments, how could she, a village widow, deserve to sit with them? flower.
But Su Yun became more and more proud in the court, and the little emperor valued him more and more. No matter big or small, he had to ask Su Yun first.
In the following January, the Queen Mother held two more flower-viewing banquets. The weather in June was very hot, and everyone was unwilling to go out in the sun, but they did not dare not to show dignity to the Queen Mother, so they had to go.
When Jiang Qingxue saw the post, she felt disgusted.
"Just say that I have abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea. I'm afraid it will taint the eyes and ears of the Queen Mother and all the nobles."
The words were spoken so straightforwardly. If the Queen Mother knew what she meant, it would be time to give up her thoughts.
When the ladies heard that Jiang Qingxue had not gone again, and because they were afraid of offending the Queen Mother, their faces were all pink from the sun. They couldn't help but get angry and took out all their dissatisfaction with the Queen Mother on Jiang Qingxue.
"This Madam Su is so elegant!"
"What kind of disease can last for half a month? It's because her husband has gained the power that she doesn't take the Queen Mother seriously anymore."
"What's wrong with her? I saw her coming out of Zuixian Tower not long ago. She must have known that she was born in a rural area and couldn't get publicity, so she hid and didn't dare to come."
"Oh, so she's pretty self-aware."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Xiao Fuzi scratched his head when he heard this.
"Can't my sister be on the stage? My sister has even been the queen of the world. I think you ugly people are just jealous and jealous."
The Queen Mother did not invite Jiang Qingxue, so she naturally refused to give up. Within a few days, the flower viewing post came to the Su Mansion again. This time it was not in the Imperial Garden, but in the Royal Garden Changqing Garden.
Xiao Fuzi encouraged Jiang Qingxue from the side.
"If you don't go all the time, that dead widow won't give up, and she might even think of ways to deal with Su Yun. I think it's better to go to the banquet openly, let her know how powerful you are, and let those ugly people see you. Look at your own differences.”
Jiang Qingxue also had this intention.
"Then go ahead."
Today's flower viewing party is scheduled for midnight. Just after noon, the sun is at its strongest. Jiang Qingxue glanced at the bright sun, went into the house and changed into a lake blue narcissus flower tulle skirt, combing her hair. She tied her hair into a neat bun and went out without a face.
Seeing that she was a little nervous, Xiao Fuzi comforted her.
"Don't be afraid, those women are all paper tigers."
Jiang Qingxue fanned herself with a handkerchief.
"You are still young and don't understand how vicious women can be."
Xiao Fuzi lay on the roof of the car, curling his lips in disapproval.
"No matter how vicious a woman is, she is still a paper tiger in my hands."
It had been a long time since he had done anything, and he was feeling bored. Thanks to the Queen Mother's repeated invitations, he finally had the opportunity to do bad things in an open and honest manner, and his heart was filled with happiness.
When Jiang Qingxue arrived at Changqing Garden, the other ladies had already arrived. Although everyone came all the way in a carriage, they were still sweating. The powder on their faces was washed out by sweat. The maid was holding a handkerchief. , secretly spread it evenly.
Jiang Qingxue cursed, luckily I was smart and didn't apply any makeup or powder, and only lightly traced my eyebrows, otherwise she would have taken off her makeup.
While she was looking around, two ladies came over to her. They looked at her for a long time. Seeing that she was beautiful and enchanting, and she had a vague fragrance on her body, they guessed something.
"Hey, isn't this the famous Mrs. Jiang?"
"You, I am Mrs. Su now."
Jiang Qingxue glanced at the two of them and spoke with a smile.
"You two ladies must have put on a lot of powder. It's such a hot day. You can't put on such a thick powder. It will all come out when you sweat. If you two have time to chat with me, you might as well go and touch up your makeup quickly. "
The two were stunned on the spot, forgetting to retort for a moment. When Jiang Qingxue walked away, one of them yelled at her back.
"I heard that Mrs. Jiang only likes to make friends with the rich and powerful in the capital. It's normal that she doesn't know us. Let's go over there and enjoy the breeze. Why should we get to know each other like these country women?"
Jiang Qingxue had just taken a few steps when she bumped into the nanny beside the Queen Mother.
"Mrs. Su, the Queen Mother invites you."
