After exchanging pleasantries, Zhao Yong accompanied Jiang Jingqiao to Gao Peng Tang to meet the Jinshi students of Enke High School, while Zhao Qingzhi left the old lady and other relatives to accompany his mother Xu back to the house to talk about himself.
As soon as they entered the house, Mrs. Xu dismissed the maid and closed the door.
"Zhi'er, you have been wronged." Xu looked at her daughter lovingly.
Zhao Qingzhi smiled and said, "Mother, why is my daughter wronged? My daughter lives comfortably in the palace. Mother, you should be at ease."
"Still cheating, mother has heard that King Jing embarrassed you on the day of your wedding, and King Jing really went too far in front of so many guests." Xu's face was a little ugly when he mentioned King Jing, "After all, your father You're just a fifth-rank official, so we shouldn't be talking about it. Now King Jing looks down on your father, so naturally he won't save face for you. If things go on like this, your life in Prince Jing's mansion will only become more and more difficult, mother How can you feel relieved when you think about the past and the future?"
Zhao Qingzhi looked at the mother in front of her who was anxious for herself, her eyes were slightly sour, she moved slightly, and leaned into her mother's arms as if she was at her mother's house, and said in a muffled voice: "Mother, before my daughter and King Jing had some misunderstandings, now It's all solved, especially since my daughter successfully cleared up the grievances of King Jing in the Golden Luan Hall yesterday, and King Jing's attitude towards her daughter is already different from the day of the wedding."
When Mrs. Xu heard this, she said anxiously: "Your father and your elder brother also told me about this matter when they came back. It's okay if you don't tell me. When I tell you, my mother's heart is even more confused. There is a lot of rumors about what King Jing looks like. What if In the future, if a child really emerges from outside, you will not be stunned to death with your temperament."
Zhao Qingzhi was silent for a long time when she heard the words, and slowly left her mother's embrace, and said with a smile: "My daughter will not let this happen. Now that King Jing and my daughter have no heart-to-heart relationship, the daughter who should be on guard will guard against it. It's just that my daughter believes that sincerity can If you change your heart, there will be a day when there will be no doubts or guards between my daughter and King Jing, and then I can enjoy life with peace of mind."
"Pull it down quickly, with King Jing's insolent and playful appearance, can she put all her heart on you?" Mrs. Xu didn't believe it.
Zhao Qingzhi smiled: "Mother, you have too much prejudice against King Jing. In fact, no matter how arrogant she is, she knows how to know her. Mother, don't you think King Jing is sometimes very cute?" With an awkward look, the arc of the corner of the mouth is getting bigger and bigger.
When Mrs. Xu heard the words, a basin of cold water was poured down: "I didn't think she could humiliate the princess who just entered the door in front of so many people on the day of her wedding. How cute is it? Even if it's a misunderstanding, it can't hurt people like this. It's too hateful." .”
Seeing her mother's indignation, Zhao Qingzhi shook her head slightly, now her mother will not easily relieve her hatred, she can only win Jiang Jingqiao's favor little by little in the future.
"Yes, yes, yes, Prince Jing is annoying sometimes, so let's not talk about her."
Mrs. Xu looked her daughter up and down when she heard the words, and asked with a blushing face for a long time: "You are married to King Jing, who else can she talk about if you don't tell her now, you, you tell mother honestly, on the night of the wedding, King Jing will have sex with you." But...but treat each other with tenderness?"
When Zhao Qingzhi heard this, she blushed naturally like an innocent little girl.
"What? King Jing didn't show mercy? Hmph." Seeing her daughter's expression changed slightly, Xu thought that Jiang Jingqiao's actions were rude, and said angrily, "She doesn't show mercy to you, so you don't have to show mercy to her after ten days."
Zhao Qingzhi's face became even hotter when she heard the words, and she thought that she hadn't had intercourse yet, but her mother's worrying personality would make her sleepless every night.
"Mother, King Jing is very...very gentle to his daughter. Oh, mother, let's not talk about this. By the way, have you opened the rock candy I asked my elder brother to bring you yesterday?" Zhao Qingzhihong Change the subject with a straight face.
Upon hearing this, Xu's expression became solemn.
"It's open." Xu said and glanced in the direction of the door, "At first I thought you were making a big fuss, but when Zhao Ziyou came back, your elder brothers felt that it was not easy, and now your third elder brother has been released in the east courtyard. Eyeliner, I just don't know what kind of monster this woman is going to do when she comes back?"
Zhao Qingzhi laughed and said, "It's nothing, mother."
Zhao Qingzhi took a sip of tea as she spoke, and said with a smile: "She just wants to find a chance to stun Prince Jing, and wants to take this opportunity to marry into Prince Jing's mansion."
"What???" Xu's face was furious after being shocked, "She dares!!!"
"Mother, calm down, what she thinks may not necessarily come true." Zhao Qingzhi laughed.
Seeing her daughter laughing, Mrs. Xu got very angry. She stood up and raised her hand to poke her temple: "You still laugh, there are contingencies in everything, and if she does, just wait and cry."
Zhao Qingzhi shook Xu's arm with a smile, and said with a smile: "Mother, be safe and don't be impatient. Your Highness knows about this, and she will take precautions. Besides, even if she is useless and really fainted, isn't it Do you still have a daughter? If Zhao Ziyou wants to play tricks, can he still hide it from the eyes of the third brother? If something happens, the daughter will bring someone to carry His Highness out."
"Carry it out? To put it bluntly, that is the prince. If there is a mistake, she will not be punished!" Mrs. Xu rubbed her temples. People in the royal family love face, and if they lose face, they must use their power to bully others.
"How could it be? She should thank me for saving her. How could she repay her kindness?" Zhao Qingzhi said with a smile, and was stunned as soon as she picked up the teacup. It is really possible for people like this to "repay kindness with revenge", so I can only pray that Jiang Jingqiao will live up to this time and say goodbye to Zhao Ziyou's way.
Xu shook her head, she didn't have a good impression of the royal family at all.
"Bang bang bang!" At this time, the door was knocked, and Zhao Ziyin's voice came, "Second aunt, third sister, are you in the room?"
Zhao Qingzhi's expression changed slightly when he heard the words, and after glancing at Mrs. Xu, he slowly got up, walked to the door and opened it.
"Sister Wutang, what's the matter?" Zhao Qingzhi looked at Zhao Ziyin with a smile.
Zhao Ziyin raised an innocent smile, stepped forward and put her arms around Zhao Qingzhi's arm and said, "Oh, Marshal Liu's wife has brought her daughter to the house, and now she is in grandma's Yisongtang, grandma ordered me to invite third sister and second aunt to meet her See."
"Marshal Liu's wife and daughter?" Zhao Qingzhi murmured, then said with a smile, "Okay, let's go then."
When Zhao Qingzhi and Mrs. Xu arrived at Yisong Hall, Liu Jinding, daughter of the Liu family, was dancing swords, so they stopped to watch.
This Liu Jinding has extraordinary martial arts skills and is good at calculating. Marshal Liu can defeat the enemy many times without the help of Miss Liu.
"Okay, okay, okay, Ms. Liu is really a hero among women." The old lady clapped her hands and praised when she saw Ms. Liu finished dancing the sword, "Mrs. Liu, I don't know if your lady is married or not? Is the marriage settled?"
Mrs. Liu laughed and said, "Her marriage is her own decision, and her father and I don't intend to force her. If there is someone she likes, she will marry if she wants to."
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of both married and unmarried women in the hall were gloomy. In this era of marriageability, most people still have to rely on their parents to decide, and most of them marry off their daughters for the benefit of the family.
Zhao Qingzhi was also stunned for a long time. She was told that she was promised to Song Ziyou since she was a child. When they met, she could talk about poetry and songs. It seems that this world is actually unfair to women.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhao Ziyin quickly shouted: "Grandmother, third sister and second aunt come."
After hearing the words, everyone looked towards the door, and after seeing the attire of the prince and concubine, everyone got up one after another.
"The minister's wife pays homage to the princess."
"The courtier pays homage to the princess."
Zhao Qingzhi walked in with a smile, and said in a warm voice: "Everyone, please get up quickly, there is no need to be formal." After finishing speaking, she personally stepped forward to help the old lady up, "Grandmother, sit down quickly. I heard that you have not recovered, and my granddaughter is very worried."
The old lady was taken aback when she heard the words, Zhao Qingzhi was so tactful when she got married to the palace and came back.
Mrs. Liu praised: "Princess Jing is really filial."
Zhao Qingzhi replied with a smile: "Mrs. Liu is absurd. I heard that Ms. Liu once climbed the West Mountain to collect medicine for Mrs. Liu. Compared with her, I feel ashamed."
"Princess Jing is too modest." Liu Jinding clasped his fists aside and said.
Zhao Qingzhi saw that Liu Jinding acted freely and freely, and felt good about her, so she said: "I heard that Miss Liu can observe Fengshui, I wonder if I can walk around the mansion with my concubine and give some advice?"
"I'm willing to help." Liu Jinding nodded slightly.
Upon hearing this, the old lady hurriedly said: "That's really great, Ziyou, Ziying, Ziyin, Zimo, you all follow along, and gain a lot of experience."
The corners of Zhao Qingzhi's mouth raised slightly when he heard this, it was really like guarding against her like a thief.
Zhao Qingzhi took Liu Jinding out of the Yisong hall, and when he entered the cross corridor, he saw his third brother coming from a distance, so he went up to meet him.
"Third Brother!"
"Little sister." Zhao Ningxuan smiled, and when he looked at the group of women behind him, he held back the words he was about to blurt out, "Princess looks good, are you going to Gao Pengtang to find His Royal Highness King Jing?"
"No, it's rare for Ms. Liu to visit the mansion today, and my younger sister is about to invite Ms. Liu to see the Feng Shui of the mansion." Zhao Qingzhi blinked at Zhao Ningxuan.
Zhao Ningxuan immediately understood that this was a good opportunity to enter the East Court in a righteous way, but he had already sneaked in and sprinkled something on the flowers in Zhao Ziyou's room. If he could hold back and wait, he didn't have to risk it. Take a dangerous walk.
"Oh, Ms. Liu? You have admired her name for a long time." Zhao Ningxuan looked at Liu Jinding, "I heard that Ms. Liu was soaked in the water for two days and two nights to escape the enemy's search during the battle of Luohe River. When she came out, her whole body was swollen. I really admire her , Heroine among girls."
Zhao Qingzhi was taken aback when he heard the words, did his third brother have any grudges with Liu Jin?It's not a gentleman's style to mention the pain in front of everyone here.
There was a sneer at the corner of Liu Jinding's mouth: "The third son is too famous. I heard that the third son got his right leg stuck on the wooden bridge not long ago and almost fell into the river. I wonder if your leg is better?"
Zhao Ningxuan laughed twice, and blew on the temple hair on his forehead: "Miss Liu just came back to Beijing and knew about Doha soon."
"The rumors in the market are too sad and funny, so I have no choice but to listen to it one more time. Don't mind the third son."
"Hahaha, I don't mind, of course I don't mind." Zhao Ningxuan gritted his teeth, rolled his eyes and said, "I heard that Ms. Liu can pinch and count, here is a cross corridor, why don't you ask Ms. Liu to do the math, Xiaosheng is going forward and backward Or go left and right?"
Liu Jinding sneered: "If I count you going forward, I think you must go backward. What's the point of such a subjective thing?"
"Oh, Ms. Liu admits that she is not good enough?" Zhao Ningxuan smiled while crossing his arms.
Liu Jinding's face turned cold when he heard the words, he glanced at Zhao Ningxuan, and said slowly: "I count you going forward, backward and left and right."
Zhao Qingzhi looked at the two of them as if she was watching a play. This Ms. Liu was quite interesting. She had said everything before and after, so she could be sure which way her third brother would go.
Zhao Ning raised his eyebrows, lifted his back robe, sat on the long corridor behind him, raised his legs, and said with an expression that he didn't want to be spanked: "Wrong, I don't go forward, backward, left or right, and I just want to sit here to rest my feet. "
As soon as these words came out, Zhao Qingzhi was stunned, why did her third brother seem to be possessed by Jiang Jingqiao?so childish.
Liu Jinding rolled his eyes, strode forward, and snorted coldly when passing by Zhao Ningxuan: "Boring!"
As soon as they entered the house, Mrs. Xu dismissed the maid and closed the door.
"Zhi'er, you have been wronged." Xu looked at her daughter lovingly.
Zhao Qingzhi smiled and said, "Mother, why is my daughter wronged? My daughter lives comfortably in the palace. Mother, you should be at ease."
