the first lady

Chapter 22

Zong Zhengye felt a little embarrassed when Qiao Linger looked at him like this, but he didn't show anything. The expression on his face was also calm and full of concentration.

"General!" A man ran in from outside the courtyard. There was dense sweat on his forehead, but his breath was not disturbed, which showed that he had a certain amount of kung fu.

"En!" Zong Zhengye got up, and the man spoke a few words in his ear skillfully before stepping aside.Then he turned around and said to Zongzheng Yan and Qiao Ling'er: "Yan, brother and sister, there is something to do in the court, so I have to say goodbye first."

"Brother, go get busy!" Zong Zhengyan was not at all surprised that Zong Zhengyi suddenly said that he wanted to leave, he didn't need to go to court, but it didn't mean that he had nothing to do when he came back from the south.

Qiao Ling'er is also a lady's blessing, in fact, she doesn't like so many courtesies of the ancients.

Zong Zhengye left quickly, and Qiao Linger and Zong Zhengyan were sitting in the small booth. Qiao Linger didn't look uncomfortable at all, and was enjoying the delicious snacks.

"Ningxiang, go and get my piano and sheet music." Qiao Linger said to Ningxiang.

"Yes, ma'am."

"Ningxiang, you're going to change your address." Qiao Linger corrected her mistake.

Ning Xiang blushed, lowered her head and called "Madam", which was really not used to.

Zong Zhengyan was more interested in Qiao Linger's usual behavior, and thought of what he said on the boat that day, so he asked: "Second sister-in-law, you said that I was like a friend of yours on the boat two months ago, I don't know which friend it is?"

The hand that went to get the pastry didn't stop because of Zongzheng Yan's problem. Zongzheng Yan looked dissolute on the outside, but his level of shrewdness was extraordinary.

Qiao Ling'er's expression was light, and she asked innocently: "Did I say that?"

Zongzheng Yan was stunned by this question, then smiled wickedly, and said, "Didn't you say that?"

"I will remember everything I said, but I really don't remember saying that third brother, you are like my friend!" Qiao Ling'er said very innocently, before he was about to speak, he said: "Don't you think third brother Do you remember, Miss Qiao Si has never had any friends, no matter whether it is the daughter of another family or the son, they are not friends. Especially the other sons, they may not even be able to name them when they meet, third brother, you should be very clear Is not it?"

Zong Zhengyan frowned slightly as he looked at Qiao Ling'er who was chic and easygoing. Her words were described lightly, but the sarcasm in them was very strong.

However, Zong Zhengyan also adjusted his mentality in the shortest time, and moved his body to get closer to Qiao Linger.

"Who are you? Really Qiao Ling'er?" Zong Zhengyan lowered his voice and asked.

Later, Lan Feng also made preparations. The third son who is not known to be romantic in the capital, and because he has the capital, countless women are also willing.But now, her young lady is his second sister-in-law, so he can't think about it anymore!
"I'm not, are you?" Qiao Ling'er asked lazily.

She was Qiao Ling'er, but she was not that cowardly young lady, Qiao Ling'er. She hadn't forgotten that the person in front of her had a familiar face, but she was also one of the accomplices who killed her previous owner.

If it was Lan Sa, it was absolutely impossible for him to sit back and do nothing while watching someone fall into the water, except of course the bad guys.

As for Zongzheng Yan, it's not that she said belittled words, in her eyes, Zongzheng Yan is far worse than Lan Sa!

"I suspect that you are impersonating." Zongzheng Yan said with a smile on his face, "Maybe, I can check it out..."

"As long as you have that ability!" Qiao Ling'er smiled calmly, without any fear.

Zong Zhengyan was a little confused, her smile was so confident, could it be that his guess was wrong?But the gap between the two people before and after is very big, and he can't accept it.

Qiao Ling'er smiled narrowly, there was no point in being suspicious, she was completely Qiao Ling'er now!
As for Zongzheng Yan, maybe she can also take this opportunity to "educate" him well so that he can get on the "right track". Lan Sa was cuter back then.

"Third brother, second sister-in-law knows that you are proficient in rhythm. I got a sheet of music by chance a few days ago, and I can't understand some parts. Could you help me?" Seeing that Ningxiang brought the piano, Qiao Ling'er quickly changed the subject. .

Zongzhengyan glanced at the woman who quickly restrained her cunning appearance, and shifted her gaze to the sheet music. She was thinking a lot, but still couldn't see her clearly. Forget it, let's discuss it with Qingheyu later!
Yin Renju.

In the hall in front, literati and elegant scholars danced and played with ink, so that they were very comfortable.

In the elegant private room, Helian Feiyu and Ning Xiaojian were playing chess, while Feng Qing was playing with the phoenix on his lap.

"Qing, the person who tampered with the piano last time, have you found out who it is?" Ning Xiaojian dropped a sunspot while talking.

"Who else? Don't look at whose hands the Qin is now, it's already so obvious." Helian Feiyu laughed, focusing on Bai Zi and Hei Zi, not even looking at Feng Qing.

"It's not lightly allowed, otherwise with Yan Hong's courage, she would not have done such a thing." Ning Xiaojian glanced at the leisurely Feng Qing.

"Light, it's your fault. The needle is highly poisonous. If Miss Qiao accidentally touches it, the Qiao family won't let it go so easily." Helian Feiyu's tone still sounded relaxed. , but the sharpness in his eyes should not be underestimated.

Perhaps, as Qiao Ling'er said, the person who poisoned was targeting Feng Qing, not anyone else.Feng Qing understands that Yan Hong weighs a few catties and a few ounces, at most she just dares to put a needle in the piano, but she doesn't have the ability to get the poison that seals the throat when it sees blood.

But Yanhong really thinks her status is too high, thinking that she will spare her if she moves a needle and cuts first, then plays Fengqing, but she doesn't understand Fengqing's true nature.

Self-assertive women are the stupidest kind to Feng Qing, and Yan Hong's fate is worse than other dramas.

"Yan, what's on your mind today?" After playing the song, Feng Qing asked Zongzheng Yan who hadn't said a word since he came here.

When Feng Qing said this, both Helian Feiyu and Ning Xiaojian put down their movements, they didn't notice it at first, but looking at it now, although Zong Zhengyan's people were here, their thoughts obviously flew away.

"Yan, you said that Miss Qiao Si, who is 'good', has become your second sister-in-law, so you are depressed here?" Helian Feiyu teased with the previous words.

"If Miss Qiao Si and Qingyi broke off their engagement, she would take the initiative to pursue her, maybe she would become your wife." Ning Xiaojian teased, the four of them are in a tight relationship, teasing also becomes a kind of relaxation The way.

Zongzheng Yan didn't answer, and his eyes were lazy. Although he didn't feel that way towards Qiao Ling'er, at least until now, all he could think of was that pretty face.

"Are you really emotional?" Feng Qing also made a rare gossip, Zong Zhengyan's appearance made him care.

Zong Zhengyan raised his head and glanced at Feng Qing, and said lightly: "Her words and deeds are completely different from Qiao Linger before..."

"Why is it different?" Ning Xiaojian asked.

"Qing, do you know which party was the one who robbed the bride's sedan chair yesterday?" Zong Zhengyan didn't answer immediately, but asked another question first.

"People from Sanssouci Palace." It was very normal for Feng Qing to know about such a big event yesterday, and with his intelligence network, he was able to get accurate information even before the court's intelligence.

Sanssouci Palace, an organization that seems to be both righteous and evil, in layman's terms, it is a trading organization, but the transactions can be money, house deeds and other things outside the body, or life.A mysterious trading center that no one knows about, as long as they can get it, they will do it. The people inside never show their true colors to others, and no one even knows the direction of Sanssouci Palace.

When talking about Sanssouci Palace, Helian Feiyu couldn't help but frowned. For the royal family, Sanssouci Palace has become a huge security risk.

"She was taken away yesterday, but I heard from my elder brother that she was calm and calm." Zong Zhengyan thought about Zong Zhengye's description, and he was even more calm than a martial arts student.

"Really?" Ning Xiaojian opened his eyes wide in surprise.

Zongzheng Yan nodded calmly, and Helian Feiyu immediately said: "If it was the cowardly Miss Qiao Si who cried when she saw a slight movement in the past, she would be more likely to faint in such a situation."

"Isn't she Qiao Ling'er?" Ning Xiaojian came to this conclusion, and recalled the previous scene, and said, "After that sunset, she seemed to have changed a bit. Could it be that someone faked it?"

"I asked her this morning, but she is very confident." Zongzheng Yan said helplessly, "If someone is really pretending to be someone else, they should show some flaws no matter what."

"Didn't the people from the Qiao family find out?" Helian Feiyu asked, outsiders like them don't know, but the people from the Qiao family who watched Qiao Linger grow up should know it, right?

"She knows everything about the people and affairs of Qiao's family. At first, the maids around her were also suspicious, but she knows about some private matters. So..." Zongzheng Yan said lightly, and the rest of the words were just No need to say it.

If someone with a heart wants to pretend, he will try his best to investigate everything about Qiao Ling'er, but outsiders cannot investigate clearly the private matters.

In addition, it was the real person before the sunset. If someone pretended to be when she fell into the water, it is impossible for her to be unaware of the movements in the water with the ability of Fengqing, and everyone saw her when she was splashing, and there was no time to steal the dragon.

In other words, Qiao Ling'er is still Qiao Ling'er, but no one really knows why her temperament has changed drastically.

"Qing, what do you think?" Zong Zhengyan shifted his gaze to Feng Qing. He was silent before, but now it is Feng Qing.

There was a harmless smile on Feng Qing's face, and the black eyes were like stars twinkling in the night sky, shining with gentle light, just one glance could make people fall into it.
