Sitting in the sedan chair, Zhao Qingzhi lifted the curtain on the small window of the sedan chair and looked out with a smile. Although there have been many changes in this life, fortunately her marriage with Jiang Jingqiao has not changed.Looking at the bustling street market outside, Zhao Qingzhi's mood became more and more cheerful.

Arriving in front of the gate of the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Qingzhi lifted her skirt lightly and put down the sedan chair, looked at the two guards of the Wang Mansion, and said with a smile: "Go back, both of you, and thank His Highness King Jing for me."

"Here, take your leave." The guard clasped his fists in salute, and after the salute, he turned around and left with the bearer.

Zhao Qingzhi looked at the sedan chair of the palace going away, and twitched the corners of her lips. In her previous life, when she was about to get married, she was unhappy, and she couldn't die, and she was unwilling to marry. .

"The sedan chair is gone, are you still in a daze?"

Second brother Zhao Ninglang's voice came from behind.

Zhao Qingzhi suppressed her smile, turned around slowly, and was taken aback for a moment, only to see the three elder brothers looking at her with their arms folded. Then she stabilized her joyful heart and said, "Are the three elder brothers going out?"

"Don't go out, mother asked us to come out and wait for you." Zhao Ninglang said, pointing to the incense burner beside him, "Mother said, if you don't come back within the time of a stick of incense, we will go to the palace to pick you up."

Zhao Qingzhi smiled and said: "It's my sister's fault, she delayed the lunch time, let's go to eat quickly, lest parents wait for a long time."

Zhao Qingzhi walked inside after speaking.

Zhao Ninglang followed behind, anxiously said: "Little sister, have you been in Prince Jing's Mansion all morning?"

"Yes." Zhao Qingzhi responded with a smile.

Zhao Ningbo has always been steady, and he frowned when he heard the words: "Then, has Director Wu, who is beside the Queen Mother, gone to Prince Jing's Mansion to announce the decree?"

Zhao Qingzhi stopped, looked at her elder brother Zhao Ningbo, and said after deliberation: "Well, it just so happened that I didn't leave at that time. When we met, I knelt down to accept the order."

"Brother and brother, look at the expression on the younger sister's face, you can guess that the younger sister knows the truth, and now she comes back with a smile or not, isn't it good?" Zhao Ningxuan spit out half a grass from his mouth, and patted Patted Zhao Qingzhi's shoulder, "Just be happy, third brother is on your side."

Zhao Qingzhi raised her beautiful eyes slightly, looked at third brother Zhao Ningxuan, and said with a smile, "Thank you, third brother!"

After Zhao Qingzhi finished speaking, she walked up the corridor with a smile.

Zhao Ninglang widened his eyes and shouted: "Little sister, you still laugh, you..."

"Second brother, my younger sister is obviously willing, please don't let the emperor be in a hurry with the eunuchs?" Zhao Ningxuan said and followed him up the corridor, running to Zhao Qingzhi, and the brother and sister happily went to the west courtyard.

Zhao Ninglang and Zhao Ningbo followed worriedly. The four brothers and sisters entered the west courtyard and walked to the main hall, where their parents were already sitting at the dining table.

"Are you back?" Seeing her daughter, Mrs. Xu stood up quickly, glanced at the three sons, saw the eldest son nod, knew that the daughter already knew about Yizhi, and said worriedly: "Zhi'er, come, drink first." Order soup!"

"Thank you, mother~" Zhao Qingzhi smiled and took the soup, scooping it up spoon by spoon.

Seeing her daughter smiling, Mrs. Xu was taken aback, and sat beside her nervously: "Zhi'er, you..."

"Oh, mother, don't worry about her carefully, she is happy." Zhao Ninglang said and looked at Zhao Qingzhi, "You, I forgot what the second brother told you, that Jing Wang is a ruffian Annoyed, who in this capital doesn't know that she loves flirting, if you are willing now, don't run back to your mother's house and cry in the future."

Zhao Qingzhi tapped the soup on the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said leisurely: "So what if I know, I won't marry my second brother to resist Yi's decree for me?"

"Er... this..." Zhao Ninglang choked, and put down his chopsticks for a while. No matter how good his kung fu was, he couldn't resist Yi's orders. Zhao Ninglang suddenly felt uncomfortable. Can't protect my sister.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xu and Zhao Dongxi looked at each other, eyes full of helplessness and guilt.

"Besides... I think King Jing is pretty good." Zhao Qingzhi put down the chopsticks, moved the stool to put her arms around her mother's arm, and said with a smile: "Mother, look at Grandpa's birthday, King Jing is quite righteous." Yes, especially her pair of clear and beautiful eyes, it doesn't look like a bad person."

"You know again!" Zhao Ninglang said angrily.

"Then, second elder brother goes against Yi's order?" Zhao Qingzhi rolled her beautiful eyes slightly, and looked at second elder brother Zhao Ninglang.

Zhao Ninglang pursed his lips and stopped talking.

Mrs. Xu patted her daughter's hand and said: "Mother is afraid, she is afraid that King Jing will provoke a bunch of women, and you will not be able to bear it in the future. Your second brother said that when the first emperor of the founding of the country was in power, there was King Wei. Not the emperor's biological sister, but she married more than 20 women, and that woman died a few times a year, and the princess died and continued to die."

Zhao Ninglang added after hearing the words: "That King Wei married a bunch of women, and later adopted a male favourite. This is unprecedented in official history, but it can be written in the dialects of the streets and alleys."

Zhao Qingzhi retorted: "Second brother, what the wild history tells may not be true, besides, the previous King Wei was King Wei, and the current King Jing is not necessarily a true romantic, I don't think she is a person who is promiscuous. Besides, King Jing also helped us get back so much money, because of this, you shouldn't talk about her like that, second brother, she is your prospective younger sister now."

"Let's not talk about it. If you haven't married, you will protect her." Zhao Ninglang muttered.

Zhao Qingzhi's cheeks turned red after hearing this, and seeing everyone staring at her, she felt ashamed as a married woman in her heart, picked up the chopsticks and lowered her head to eat, and said, "I won't tell you any more."

"Okay, Qingzhi is right. King Jing is not the former King Wei. Don't worry too much, let's eat." Zhao Dongxi said, picking up the bowl, "Ning Bo, Ning Lang, you two, eat quickly, tomorrow You guys are going to enter the Tribute Academy, speaking of it, the chief examiner this time is King Jing, you have to be mentally prepared, if you do well in the exam, others may say that King Jing opened the back door for you in terms of brother-in-law relationship."

"What? It's King Jing?" Zhao Ningbo was surprised.

"That's over." Zhao Ninglang's face was a little grim, "Does King Jing understand? I suspect that King Jing will not be able to understand the article by then. Isn't this just making fun of the world?"

Zhao Qingzhi heard the words and argued: "Second brother, King Jing is the daughter of the royal family. The children of the royal family got up to study in the study at four o'clock when they were young. The husband is a bachelor, so he must be well-educated after all these years."

"Okay, okay, okay, let's not talk, I don't understand why you care so much about King Jing." Zhao Ninglang confessed and shut up.

Zhao Qingzhi pursed her lips. She was telling the truth. She wanted to go back to her room to embroider something for marriage, so she quickly finished her meal and went back to her small courtyard.

Entering the small courtyard, I saw Meng Qing talking to a girl about how to prune flower branches.

"Miss." Meng Qing saw Zhao Qingzhi, and brought the girl forward, "This is the little girl that the third young master bought for Miss, called Xiao Jiu."

Hearing this, Zhao Qingzhi looked him up and down, and seeing that he looked upright, he nodded, "Come in and answer!" Then he entered the room.

Xingjiu followed behind, looked at Zhao Qingzhi in front, and saw that the hem of her skirt was floating as she walked, and its shape was like a lotus flower. Such a pure woman can be said to grow lotuses every step of the way, with excellent temperament.No wonder King Jing asked her to serve her, probably because she was afraid that Meijiao Niang would be missed by others, but she heard that the third lady was already Princess Zhunjing when she first entered the mansion.

Zhao Qingzhi entered the room, sat down, and looked at the little girl in front of her with a smile.

"Xiao Jiu, why did you sell yourself into the mansion?"

Xingjiu heard the words and replied: "Miss Hui, the servant's father is a wandering doctor. He traveled all over the world. Not long ago, my father passed away. I am a girl who only has a little money with me. I have no other place to go. I happened to meet Aunt Yazi."

Zhao Qingzhi's eyes lit up when she heard the words: "Your father is a doctor in Youfang, did he teach you to practice medicine?"

"I have taught, not only that, my father also taught me the art of boxing and kicking to defend myself." Xing Jiu replied.

Zhao Qingzhi became interested, and said with a smile: "Oh? Then you can make some gestures for me to see?"

Xing Jiu started to play immediately when he heard the words, each move was quite skillful, then he lifted a cup of tea from the table, caught it in the air, turned over and fell to the ground, without spilling any water in the tea.

Meng Qing stared blankly and applauded again and again.

However, Zhao Qingzhi's smile gradually disappeared. With this kung fu and good medical skills, how could she be willing to sell herself to be a little maid?It seems that the third brother has to inquire again to find out whether his net worth is innocent.

"Xiao Jiu, there are ranks for maids in the mansion. You should start as a second-class maid. If you perform well in the future, I will make you a first-class maid."

Xing Jiu smiled and said, "Thank you miss."

Zhao Qingzhi gently raised her hand to help her up, and said, "Meng Qing, take Xiao Jiu to familiarize herself with the environment, and let her do some work."

Hearing this, Meng Qing happily took Xing Jiu's hand and went out.

Zhao Qingzhi looked at Xing Jiu's back, and her sixth sense made her feel that something was wrong, but this little girl is really good, she knows medical skills and is good at kung fu, she really needs such a person, to guard against the elder brother, I hope this little girl will come in There is no other purpose.

Meng Qing took Xing Jiu to tell her what she was going to do in the future, and then went to the housekeeper to get Xing Jiu's clothes and other supplies. On the way back, she heard the little maid in the East courtyard mention King Jing, so she listened with all her ears, and heard King Jing After sending Zhao Ziyou back in person, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly ran to the west courtyard with his things in his arms.

"Miss!!!" Meng Qing ran into the room and looked at Zhao Qingzhi panting, "King Jing, King Jing..."

Zhao Qingzhi put down her needle and thread, and asked, "Speak slowly, what's wrong with Prince Jing?"

"Prince Jing sent Missy back in person. I heard from the little maid over there that King Jing specially asked the cook to make the soup that Missy likes to drink."

Zhao Qingzhi stared blankly at Meng Qing when she heard the words, thinking about Jiang Jingqiao's attitude towards Zhao Ziyou today, she shook her head and said: "This is just hearsay."

Seeing that her young lady didn't believe her, Meng Qing hurriedly said, "Miss, I can hear you clearly."

Zhao Qingzhi comforted Meng Qing: "Okay, they may have said it to you on purpose, but it's not true."

"Miss." Xing Jiu stood at the door, "There is a maid outside who said that the eldest lady asked her to deliver things."

When Zhao Qingzhi heard this, doubts flashed across her eyes: "Let her in."

Hearing this, Xing Jiu waved to Rui Xiu who was outside.

After Ruixiu came in, she saluted, put a bowl of soup on the table, and said with a smile: "Miss San, King Jing invited our lady to have lunch at noon today. King Jing saw that my lady liked this soup, so he asked the cook to cook it again. Made it for our lady to bring back, our lady said, sisters want to share good things, and specially asked the servant to bring a bowl to the third lady to try something new."

Meng Qing was so angry that she turned her head to look at her young lady, only to see that her young lady looked at the bowl of soup like a fool, and then lightly touched her shoulder.

Zhao Qingzhi came back to her senses, seeing the soup bowl, she had to believe it, such a bowl can only be found in the palace, besides, if such a thing is not true, Zhao Ziyou would not dare to arrange it, just why?

The front foot Yizhi just arrived, and the back foot sent her away, leaving Zhao Ziyou behind, and we had lunch together, what does Jiang Jingqiao mean by this?

To slap her in the face?

Zhao Qingzhi took a deep breath and said with a smile: "Understood, tell your lady for me that Prince Jing now has a concubine-to-be. I hope that the eldest sister's words and deeds will be thoughtful, so as not to provoke gossip, and it is difficult to talk about marriage."

The corners of Ruixiu's lips turned up when she heard the words, and she smiled contemptuously: "The maidservant will definitely bring what the third lady said." After speaking, Ruixiu turned and left.

Zhao Qingzhi stood up, picked up the bowl of soup, her face was already a bit cold.

"Meng Qing, take it to the Xiaotian dog raised by the second brother." Zhao Qingzhi's face was three points cold, seven points wronged, she couldn't accept it.

Xing Jiu raised his eyebrows, this matter must be passed on to King Jing, but King Jing is also very strange, obviously he cares more about this one, so why would he want to be nice to the other one?Isn't it easy to make a beautiful woman unwelcome?

"Wait a minute." Xing Jiu was complaining in his stomach when he caught a glimpse of the small air-filled particles in the soup, his eyes turned cold, he pressed Meng Qing's hand, took the bowl of soup, took another look, and said, "This thing can't be eaten. , with Madman Grass in it, people will lose their hair if they eat it, and it will wither after a long time, and animals will lose their hair after eating it, and they will be thin and weak."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Qingzhi and Meng Qing were shocked into a cold sweat.

Meng Qing said angrily: "Miss, she wants Miss to marry without face, she is really cruel, let's take this bowl of soup to find the Duke."

Zhao Qingzhi shook her head and said: "It's useless. Now that things are here, they can deny them completely, and even say that we have drugged them to frame them. Besides, this soup comes from Prince Jing's mansion. Grandfather will not provoke Prince Jing, for sure. Will reprimand us for causing trouble."

"Then forget it?" Meng Qing was very angry.

Zhao Qingzhi was about to say something when she heard the words, but when she saw Xiao Jiu was there, she said, "Keep this bowl of soup and seal it up."

"Little sister!!!"

At this time, Tang's voice suddenly came from outside the house, and Zhao Qingzhi came out of the house upon hearing it: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Tang said anxiously: "Your second and third brothers hit King Jing on the back of the head with a small stone, and now King Jing is checking people everywhere."
