Jie a husband is too arrogant
Chapter 138
Chapter 138
The second lady knelt on the ground to pick up the broken teacup, her body trembling with anger, her lips were bruised.
After she was dismissed by Su Wenqian, the 200 taels of silver she gave was quickly seized by her two sons. Later, Su Wenqian didn't have any money to give to her again. She was kicked out by the shopkeeper of the inn and lived on the street, so she had to go back to Su's house with the cheek.
Su Wenqian had already sold the house to pay the debts of Su Yu and the two, and rented a commoner's house, but at least there was a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
Her daughter didn't live up to it, and she gave birth to a child with the mountain man, and she refused to go back to the mountain.
When the family was in chaos, the eldest lady who had lived outside for a few months suddenly came back, and brought back the bandit who had pretended to be her daughter before, and said it was the eldest miss of the Su family.
The evidence is solid, and there are witnesses who say that Ji Yuxian personally checked it out, and even the details of the clothes he wore when he was rescued from the water were correct.
Moreover, as soon as Su Jiu came back, he bought the former Su house back. Su Wenqian was so happy that he didn't need to ask for proof, and directly admitted that Su Jiu was his daughter.
When Su Wenqian saw Su Jiu, he was both happy and regretful at the same time, tearing up all the time.
This is not pretending, he liked Yuejiu when he was young, and later the second wife told him that Yuejiu had sunk in the middle of the river, so he was very sad for a while.
That day in Ji's mansion, he felt an indescribable familiarity with this woman, but since he never saw Su Jiu again and there were many troubles in the mansion, he forgot about it.
Hearing the eldest lady talk about Su Jiu's experience in these years, Su Wenqian was emotional for a moment and burst into tears.
And I didn't expect his daughter to be so capable now!Opened an escort agency, opened a commercial firm, and the business has already reached Fuyang, which is a hundred times stronger than his son!
The Su family's house was redeemed, so Su Wenqian naturally wanted to go back with the eldest lady, but the second wife of Su Jiudao had already retired, and was no longer part of the Su family, so she could no longer return to the Su house.
Su Wenqian hurriedly pleaded for his second wife to explain, and finally Su Jiu reluctantly agreed, but the second wife can only return to Su's house as a servant.
The second wife had no choice but to agree, at least she would not have to go hungry or cold when she returned to Su's house, and she would have a place to live.
She thought that she still had a certain dignity in the Su family after all, even if she came back, no one would dare to order her. She never thought that Su Jiu's beating and scolding her would be better than being kind to the lowest servants.
Now she finally understood why Su Jiu promised her to come back, it was clearly to revenge and insult her!
Did Su Jiu already know what happened back then?
impossible!
She was so young at that time, it is impossible to remember, if she remembered, she would have come back long ago.
Besides, Nanny Qin is already dead, and there is no proof of her death. She just needs to bite her to death and refuse to admit it!
"Second Madam?" Seeing that she was in a trance, the maid next to her hurriedly asked.
"Qiao'er, go and help me find the master!" Lin said in a low voice.
The servant girl looked embarrassed, "Miss does not allow slaves to help Second Madam."
Mrs. Lin gouged her out and said bitterly, "I didn't ask you to help me clean up the house, so why don't I just call the master?"
The little maid trembled in fright, and hurriedly turned around and left.
After a while, Mrs. Lin, who was kneeling on the ground to pick up the broken porcelain, heard footsteps approaching, her eyes flashed fiercely, and she shook the broken porcelain in her hand vigorously, and blood dripped down the palm of her hand.
As soon as Su Wenqian entered the door, he happened to see it. He hurriedly helped Lin up, looked at her hand cut by the porcelain, and said, "What's the matter?"
Lin hurriedly took her hand back, with an aggrieved look, "Yuejiu thought the tea I made was hot and threw it on my body, but my body didn't catch it, and fell to the ground and broke. Yuejiu asked me to clean it up. clean."
Su Wenqian frowned, ordered Qiao'er to get the wound medicine, and sighed, "Just bear with it! Now it's not the same as before, we live, eat, and the wages of the servants are all paid by Yuejiu, if not Yuejiu, maybe we are all hungry and cold. And what happened back then was indeed your fault, so you should just forgive me!"
Lin burst into tears, "Isn't this concubine doing that for the sake of the Su family? Besides, if she says she is Master Yuejiu, she will believe it. What if Ji Yuxian and her partner together to deceive the madam and the master!"
Su Wenqian frowned, shook his head and said, "No! What's the benefit of them lying to the Su family?"
"My lord sees that she doesn't look like a lady in the slightest. I saw her in the newly opened brothel today. I saw her spend 10 taels of silver for a Qinglou woman, fooling around with Qinglou women all day long. There is such a daughter , isn't the master afraid of ridicule?" Lin blurted out.
Su Wenqian's face turned cold, "The banished son went to the brothel again? Didn't he harm this family enough? He didn't even have the slightest sense of shame and repentance! Didn't he go to arrange Yuejiu in front of you? He has the ability to make him stay away from this family of silver!"
Lin knew that she had slipped her mouth, so she immediately shut up.
At this moment, the servant suddenly came in and said, "Master, Master Ji is here!"
Su Wenqian was startled, greeted him personally, and told Lin by the way, "Go back to your room first, let's talk about it later!"
Lin's face was full of resentment, and he left angrily.
Welcoming Ji Yuxian into the flower hall, Su Wenqian smiled politely, "Young Master Ji is here in the humble house, what's the matter?"
"I'm here to pick up my wife!" Ji Yuxian sat on the chair, with a graceful and dignified figure, and smiled slightly.
"Ma'am?" Su Wenqian said in astonishment.
"Yes, there is no marriage contract between Ji and Su's families. The eldest lady in the house is my son's wife, and we have paid homage to him before." Ji Yuxian said in a leisurely manner.
When Su Wenqian saw that Ji Yuxian had admitted to the marriage of the two families again, his eyes lit up immediately, and he didn't dare to mention the matter of the previous reconciliation, so he nodded hurriedly.
"Then, where is my wife?" Ji Yuxian asked.
"Yue Jiu? The old man will send someone to call Yue Jiu over immediately!" Su Wenqian was so excited that he hurriedly ordered his servants to invite the eldest lady to the flower hall.
After Su Jiu left the flower hall, she went into the Da Furen's room and was practicing calligraphy with her.
The eldest lady looked at her loving face, "When you're free, accompany me to practice calligraphy in the room, don't go out to mess around!"
Su Jiu hooked her lips and said with a smile, "What did Su Wenqian say to you?"
"Isn't what he said true?" The eldest lady smiled at her.
Su Jiu shrugged, noncommittal.
The eldest lady poured a cup of tea for Su Jiu, looked at the handwriting she wrote, and said, "It's very different from the handwriting you wrote when you were young, who taught you?"
"Ji Yuxian" Su Jiu said casually.
Da Furen's eyes flashed when she heard the words, and she said, "I think the eldest son really cares about you, a man worthy of entrustment, what do you think?"
She was only afraid that her daughter would go her own way, love someone she shouldn't love for the rest of her life, share the same bed with her husband, and live alone all her life.
"I didn't think much about it." Su Jiu was obviously perfunctory.
"Jiu'er!" The eldest lady took the pen in her hand and said seriously, "Whether you are Su Jiu or Su Yuejiu, you are engaged to the eldest son, you are his wife!"
Su Jiu smiled nonchalantly, "Don't tell me mother doesn't know that the Su family and the Ji family have reconciled and have nothing to do with each other?"
"But I see that the eldest son still likes you!" The eldest lady said with certainty.
During the month on the mountain, she could clearly see how Ji Yuxian cared and liked Su Jiu.
"I know!" Su Jiu took a deep breath, and turned her eyes to the window.
"What about you? Still like the prince?"
"Xiao Lie?" Su Jiu sneered, "Don't worry, I have figured it out in the past few months. I have never had a relationship with him. I was together because he said he liked me and moved me. Now he has betrayed me." How could I still take those ridiculous feelings to heart when I said it back then?"
"Then why don't you accept the eldest son?" The eldest lady frowned.
Su Jiu was silent for a moment, then turned around and continued to write with a pen, and said in a low voice, "It's not very good now. People don't necessarily need love in life. If they don't, they feel relaxed. Don't worry or worry that the other party will betray you one day, and don't care about it." Does he like other women?"
She is not one of those women who need to rely on her mother's family before marriage and her husband's family after marriage. She can be self-sufficient by herself and live a very comfortable life.
The eldest lady shook her head and sighed, "Mother just wants someone to take care of you. When my mother is old and gone, there will be someone to accompany you!"
Su Jiu looked back and smiled, "Mother will stay with me all the time!"
Da Furen caressed her black hair, "Of course I will!"
"Dong dong dong" knocked on the door several times, and Tao Zi's voice came from outside the door, "Miss, the master sent someone to invite you to the flower hall."
"Understood!" Su Jiu responded, put the pen on the pen holder, picked up a cloak and wrapped it around the lady, and said with a smile, "It's autumn, the weather is cold, mother should pay more attention to her body!"
"Okay, let's go!" The eldest lady smiled softly.
Su Jiu went out, saw Taozi was still waiting outside, pinched her face casually, looked at her pink dress, smiled lightly, "Taozi looks more and more beautiful!"
She was still wearing a man's brocade cannon, her hair was tied high, and her waist was tied with a jade belt. She looked like a romantic and noble son. Even though Tao Zi knew that she was her eldest lady, she still blushed when she teased her, and said with an annoyed smile, "Miss Go, don't make fun of slaves!"
Su Jiu's lips curled into an evil smile, and she turned around.
Su Wenqian looking for her?
Could it be because he punished his beloved second wife?
Then she wanted to see how he would fight against his second wife.
Su Jiu walked towards the flower hall unhurriedly. When she got closer and saw the dark red figure, she slowed down and walked in step by step.
From the moment she appeared, Ji Yuxian's gaze has been on her, from the initial anger and hatred, gradually turned into soft yearning, the thought that he had planned to spank her before disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Su Jiu sat on the opposite chair without changing expression, and said with a smile, "Isn't the eldest son satisfied with the gift Su gave to the eldest son, why don't you leave the beauty here when you have time?"
Su Wenqian looked at Su Jiu's men's robe and her lazy posture, fearing that she would be disgusted by Ji Yuxian, a look of embarrassment slid across his face, and coughed softly, "Yue Jiu, the eldest son came to see you specially!"
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows and looked at Ji Yuxian.
After not seeing each other for several months, the girl seemed to pop out of his late-night dream, the man stared at her face with thick eyes and said, "Just now I have spoken to my father-in-law, I am here to take my wife back to the house. "
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows, looked at Su Wenqian, and asked suspiciously, "Hasn't the marriage between the Su family and the Ji family been dissolved?"
Su Wenqian smiled awkwardly, but did not speak.
Ji Yuxian took out the Heli book from his bosom, unfolded it and showed it to Su Jiu, "Is this what Ma'am said? I didn't sign it because my husband didn't sign it, so it doesn't count. It is clearly recorded in the household registration of the government office that Ji's eldest son Ji Yuxian's wife, Su Yuejiu!"
Su Nine
Glancing at He Li's book, he said in a low voice, "Since we failed to reconcile last time, let's do it again!"
Ji Yuxian's face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at her gloomyly, "Then I want to know the reason why Madam wants to reconcile?"
Su Wenqian panicked even more, "Yes, Yuejiu, reconciliation is not a trivial matter, you have to think it over carefully, and you must not be hasty!"
Su Jiu held the tea in his hand and remained silent.
Ji Yuxian said to Su Wenqian, "Master Yuezhang, please go out for a while, I have a few words that I want to say to my wife alone."
Su Wenqian got up immediately and said with a smile, "Okay, let's talk slowly, Yuejiu has been stubborn since he was a child, so the eldest son will take care of him."
"Yes, I understand my wife's temper!" Ji Yuxian chuckled lightly.
"Yuejiu, have a good talk with the eldest son!" Su Wenqian said flatteringly, turned around and went out, taking away all the servants in the room and closing the door.
There were only two of them left in the room, Ji Yuxian was sitting opposite, his long eyes covered with mist, just staring at her lukewarmly.
Su Jiu smiled and looked over, "If the eldest son delays any longer, it will be dark soon, 10 taels of silver for one night, don't waste it!"
Ji Yuxian's face was ashen, he got up and went over, grabbed the girl's arm, pulled her up and hugged her in his arms, his chest was filled with suffocation, but as soon as he touched her, it instantly disappeared without a trace.
A vague sigh overflowed from the thin lips, and the tone was as soft and pampering as ever, "Have you had enough trouble? I haven't settled the bill with you for running away from home. How dare you put a woman in your husband's arms? It's just eating!" It's decided that I dare not hit you, right?"
The man was covered with the water lotus fragrance that Su Jiu was familiar with. She took a deep breath very lightly, and said in a light tone, "Ji Yuxian, I am not suitable to be Mrs. Ji Shao!"
"Whether it's suitable or not, I have the final say!" The man tilted his head and kissed the sensitive part of her ear, and asked in a low voice, "Did you not be happy being the young lady in the Ji Mansion before? You said that you like being with me."
A series of shudders came from under the man's lips, Su Jiu's chest went numb, and she almost collapsed into the man's arms, she hurriedly turned her head away, "But I'm happier now."
"Where are you happy?" Ji Yuxian pinched her chin to prevent her from avoiding it, leaned over to hold the corner of her lips, "It's very happy to hang out with those women in the brothel."
"Those women are gentle and considerate, they say exactly what they say, and naturally make the young master happy!"
Ji Yuxian bit her earlobe hard, and said in a hateful voice, "Young master? You really treat yourself like a master, if you dare to mess around again, I will kill those women directly!"
Su Jiu pushed him away with both hands, turned around, "Ji Yuxian, don't force me!"
"If you don't force you, you will be bullied like last time!" Ji Yuxian hugged her from the back and laughed coldly.
I haven't seen her for nearly three months, and the man couldn't help but want to get close to her. Moreover, she was his legitimate wife, whom he hugged and kissed.
Su Jiu's face turned pale after hearing his words, and her breath suddenly became cold.
Ji Yuxian knew that he had touched her sore spot, resting his chin on her shoulder, his voice couldn't help slowing down, "You still can't let him go? How long will it take to let go! Married a wife but has been living alone in an empty room, isn't Madam You should be considerate as a husband."
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows, "So I spent 10 taels of silver to give you a beauty, isn't that considerate enough!"
"Don't dare to say it!" Ji Yuxian turned the woman around abruptly, unable to resist her refusal, bowed his head and kissed her on the lips.
Su Jiu struggled for a while, but her body was so weak that she put her rejecting hand on his chest as if she was holding onto the man tightly. From the beginning until now, she has been unable to refuse his intimacy.
Could it be because the man is so beautiful, and his kissing skills make people feel comfortable.
Su Jiu was thinking wildly, and was dismissed by the man as being inattentive, so she bit her tongue hard.
Su Jiu glared at him painfully, and bit back without hesitation, but was so deeply entangled by the man that she couldn't exert any strength, so she retreated steadily and broke into an army.
The sky gradually darkened, and with Su Wenqian's order, no servant dared to approach the flower hall, and in the silent room, there was only the sound of kissing water.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Jiu stopped and leaned weakly on the man's body, her clear eyes filled with spring water, and she gasped slightly.
Ji Yuxian wrapped her arms around her waist, and kept sizzling kisses on the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, and said in a low voice, "You obviously like to be close to me, how long are you going to run away?"
Su Jiu grabbed his shoulder with her palm, bit her lip and remained silent.
"Come home with your husband!" Ji Yuxian coaxed her softly by biting her thin white earlobe.
The water in Su Jiu's eyes gradually recovered, she pushed the man away again, pursed her red and swollen lips, with a charming expression, but her tone was light,
"I said I won't go back, if you force me again, I will never see you again!"
The tenderness in Ji Yuxian's phoenix eyes dissipated, and she looked at her with anger and hatred, "Su Yuejiu, are you determined to eat me?"
Su Jiu shrugged, "The eldest son voluntarily falls for me, what can I do?"
Ji Yuxian's lips curled into a self-deprecating sneer, "Okay, it's my son who is willing to be humble to fall in love with a heartless woman like you. I'm going to clean up the building now, and dote on the woman my wife picked for me. Maybe, after a night of love, the Japanese master will forget you tomorrow!"
After the man finished speaking, he turned around and left, decisive and indifferent.
Su Jiu frowned, staring coldly at the man's back.
Su Wenqian walked in and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with the eldest son?"
Su Jiu's expression was displeased, and she walked away without saying a word!
At night, when it was almost midnight, the eldest lady got up at night and saw that the light in Su Jiu's room was still on, she knocked on the door and went in, and saw Su Jiu sitting on a low couch reading a book.
"Why don't you go to bed so late?" The lady walked over, took out the book in Su Jiu's hand, and put it aside, "It's late at night, don't read it, it will hurt your eyes."
Su Jiu stretched out her arms to embrace the eldest lady, buried her head in her arms, and said in a muffled voice, "Mother, I can't sleep."
"The eldest son came today, and I heard that he left very angry. What did you say to make him angry?" The eldest lady asked softly, stroking her black hair.
"I, I told him to find another woman!" Su Jiu whispered.
The eldest lady sighed deeply, "You always make him sad like this, sooner or later he will really give up and not like you!"
Su Jiu sniffed and said softly, "But I can't go back to Ji's Mansion right now."
"why?"
Su Jiu shook her head and said nothing.
"You have suffered so much before, mother only hopes that you will live better. I know you have your own ideas, mother can't force it, but the body is still the most important thing, go to sleep, don't think about it!"
Su Jiu nodded, "Mother, go to sleep, I will sleep right away!"
"Okay!" The eldest lady patted her on the shoulder before turning around and leaving the room.
Su Jiu was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, listening to the sound of drums beating the third watch outside, she sat up suddenly.
Biting her lip, Su Jiu got up, put on her clothes, and left the room silently, darting into the darkness.
At this hour, the only one still open to welcome customers is the brothel.
However, after a while, Qinglou has also quieted down. After entering, there were only a few guests drinking with their arms around the woman, and the voice of the girl who played and sang was exhausted and became lazy.
Su Jiu walked straight towards the third floor. From time to time, blushing voices could be heard from the closed rooms on both sides of the corridor. Su Jiu's face turned slightly pale, and her pace began to speed up.
When they reached the door on the third floor, Su Jiu bit her lip and kicked the door open.
A man and a woman were sitting in front of the table inside. The woman was leaning on the wooden chair and was about to fall asleep, while the man was still drinking by himself.
A strong smell of alcohol spread over the face, and the man had been drinking for a long time while sitting here.
Hearing the sound of kicking the door, the man turned his head slowly, looked at her with a pair of dark eyes, and said in a low voice, "You are finally here!"
After a moment of astonishment, Su Jiu turned around and left.
"Ajiu!"
The man got up quickly and grabbed Su Jiu's wrist, "Ah Jiu, even if you want to sentence me to death, you should give me a chance to defend yourself, right?"
Su Jiu broke away from the man's hand, returned to laughing and said, "His Royal Highness is joking, how can a commoner in the lower district dare to sentence His Highness to death?"
"Ah Jiu!" Xiao Lie grabbed Su Jiu's wrist again, turned his head and said coldly to the woman behind him, "You go out first!"
Qian Qiu had already been awakened, looked at the two of them, stepped back silently, and closed the door.
Without waiting for Su Jiu to dodge, this time the man said directly, "At that time, my father was poisoned and controlled by Xiao Jing. I had no choice but to marry Princess Yulong and win over the Yunnan Palace, otherwise my father's life would be in danger. I and Yulong The princess has discussed it, and when the matter is resolved, we will reconcile, I have no husband and wife relationship with her, I have been waiting for you!"
"Xiao Lie!" Su Jiu turned around, brushed his hand away, and looked at him calmly, "You don't have to make peace with Princess Yulong, and it is impossible for me to be with you. You are the most suitable one. Between us Regardless of their status, there should be no intersection."
"No!" Xiao Lie's dark eyes were painful, "We didn't get along very well before, and there is no place in my heart at all!"
Su Jiu took a step back, "Xiao Lie, we can't go back, we can't go back from the day you married Yulong!"
"But it's a lie that I married Yulong, and I'm sincere to you!"
Su Jiu smiled, "Fake? I saw with my own eyes that you welcomed her into the door and married her. How could this be fake?"
"You and Ji Yuxian also worshiped, why can I not mind? Or, the person you like is still him, and leaving me is the relief you can't wait for?" The man's handsome face was gloomy.
Su Jiu glanced at him coldly, and said with a sneer, "The Crown Princess in His Royal Highness's residence is still Yulong, what qualifications does Your Highness have to say these things to me?"
Xiao Lie's face suddenly turned pale.
Su Jiu snorted softly, turned around and walked out the door, and walked downstairs slowly, feeling unspeakably happy in her heart, left the Qinglou, and went home to sleep!
Three days later it will be the annual Mid-Autumn Festival. Empress Dowager Xiao is not in good health recently, so she does not participate in the palace banquet at night, so the palace ladies and some officials' wives went to the palace early in the morning to pay their respects.
Nangong Bi is the imperial princess and the wife of the third-rank general, so she can no longer be as lazy as before, and she has to follow her mother into the palace.
Once entering Fushou Palace, the courtyard was full of well-dressed women, chatting in groups of three or four.
The most eye-catching thing is the side of the Crown Princess, surrounded by a circle of elegantly dressed women, who are flattering her.
Nangong Bi cast a cold glance, and sat down on the porch with her mother to rest.
Empress Dowager Xiao got up late today and was still having breakfast. The aunt in charge came out and asked everyone to wait for a while.
Everyone naturally responded humbly, not daring to disturb the Queen Mother's meal.
Seeing Nangong Bi, Yulong took the initiative to come over, and said with a smile, "When did Mrs. Nangong and Mrs. Hu come?"
Mrs. Nangong was about to get up, but she was grabbed by Nangong Bi, who sneered and said, "When did we come, and what does it have to do with the princess? Do you think I didn't take the initiative to go over to say hello?"
Yulong frowned, and said with a light smile, "Madam Hu is serious. After I enter Beijing, it is rare to have a few close friends. I just want to get closer to Madam Hu!"
Nangong Bi looked up at her, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her lips, and said crisply, "I don't dare to get close to the Crown Princess, if I'm betrayed one day, I'm not as lucky as Su Jiu to survive!"
Yulong's face turned pale in an instant, and she looked at the eloquent girl indifferently.
Mrs. Nangong frowned and winked at Nangong Bi, stood up and said with a smile, "The little girl never speaks thoughtfully, she didn't mean to offend the Crown Princess, please don't be as knowledgeable as her!"
Yulong smiled sarcastically, "Yes!"
With a slight nod, Yulong flicked her sleeves, turned and left.
After walking two steps, Yulong turned her head, still with a dignified smile on her face, "I heard that Su Jiu has returned, Madam Hu and her are so close, you should already know it!"
Nangong Bi was startled, she really didn't know that Su Jiu had returned to Beijing, she disappeared for three months, and she didn't even tell her when she came back.
And Hu Dapao, he must have known about it and kept it from her!
Nangong Bi was upset, but raised her head and smiled coquettishly, "The princess doesn't have to think of ways to provoke, no matter how good my relationship with Su Jiu is, I won't be stabbed in the back when we are clearly on good terms!"
Yulong's eyes turned cold, she glanced at her lightly, then turned and left!
Mrs. Nangong looked at her daughter reproachfully, and said in a low voice, "After all, Yulong is the crown princess, the future empress, and she took the initiative to come and talk to us. Why is Bi'er so ignorant of etiquette?"
Nangong Bi snorted disdainfully, "What kind of etiquette and old love can we have with this kind of villain?"
Mrs. Nangong shook her head, "No matter what, Bi'er can't talk like this so she doesn't leave a way out for herself. If the princess feels resentful towards you in her heart, she will definitely retaliate in the future."
"I'm not afraid of her!" Nangong Bi said angrily.
Mrs. Nangong also understood her daughter's temper, and persuaded, "You are already a wife, you can no longer be as willful and messing around as before, you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Cannon, everything you say and do now is related to him ,Understand?"
When Hu Dapao was mentioned, Nangong Bicai's expression calmed down, and he put his arms around Mrs. Nangong's arm and swayed coquettishly, "My daughter knows, at worst, I will run away when I see the princess, and I will scold her behind my back!"
Mrs. Nangong chuckled, and nodded helplessly between the woman's eyebrows, "You are really a child!"
After nearly half an hour, the aunt in charge who served the Empress Dowager Xiao came out and asked everyone to line up in order to have an audience inside.
Among these people, the empress with the highest status was naturally the empress, and then the crown princess. The two entered the inner hall one after the other to say hello and congratulate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Empress Dowager Xiao sat on the back of the large golden pomelo beauty with carved phoenix and gold, wearing a palace dress inlaid with gold silk and hibiscus color blessing pattern, she was very happy to see Yulong, "This child looks good, has a good temperament, and is kind You really are a rare couple!"
The queen stood aside with a pale face.
Ever since Xiao Lie was made crown prince, the queen's complexion became more and more ugly day by day, and she couldn't even find an excuse to come to the Empress Dowager Xiao's daily greetings.
"Thank you for your compliment!" Yulong was wearing a lilac-colored golden hundred butterfly and flower cloud satin palace dress, which was elegant and fresh, softening her own heroic temperament, dignified and soft, and had a grand demeanor.
Concubine Rong's eyes flickered, and she said with a smile, "The Empress Dowager likes Yulong, so let Yulong come to the palace to accompany you more from now on!"
"Okay, okay!" Empress Dowager Xiao loved the house and Wu, she just liked it when she looked at Yulong, and smiled happily.
Several people had a conversation, and other wives also entered the palace to pay their respects, and Empress Dowager Xiao responded to them one by one.
At the end, Empress Dowager Xiao was a little tired, so she asked everyone to leave and was accompanied by Concubine Rong to the bedroom.
"The Ai family hasn't seen Jingrou for a long time. A few days ago, someone invited her into the palace, but she was not at the Su family. Now she is back?" asked the Empress Dowager Xiao.
"Yes, I heard that Sister Rou has returned, and she has been with her daughter recently, so she didn't go to the palace to visit the Queen Mother." Concubine Rong said softly.
"Her daughter is also a poor child. She was robbed by mountain bandits and divorced by the Ji Mansion. When Jingrou is allowed to enter the palace again, let her bring her daughter."
"Yes!"
Yulong came out from the palace, sat on the carriage, closed her eyes, with a faint tiredness on her face.
Su Jiu has returned!
But he didn't come to her, not even any movement.
The more this happened, the more uneasy she felt.
Qinglan brought tea to her, and said displeasedly, "The young lady of the Nangong family is so disrespectful to the princess, why do you put up with her?"
Yulong opened her eyes slightly, and said softly, "It's just a girl who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, why should I have the same knowledge as her?"
"But this servant is not convinced on behalf of the Crown Princess. You are His Highness the Crown Prince who personally proposed to the Emperor, the Crown Princess who is being married by the matchmaker, and it's her turn to give pointers?" Qing Lan said angrily.
"His Royal Highness has just appointed the crown prince, and his status is not stable. He still needs the support of the Nangong family and Hu Dapao. Why should I cause unnecessary trouble for him just for the sake of talking quickly?" Yulong held the tea, even though she was alone with her The servant girl also sat very upright.
"Yes, the Crown Princess has a lot of people, so don't bother with her!" The angry expression on Qing Lan's face was replaced by complacency.
The carriage stopped in front of the Prince's Mansion, Qinglan took Yulong's arm and got out of the carriage, walking towards the gate of the mansion.
"Has His Royal Highness returned to the residence?" Yulong asked when she entered the door.
The guard next to him hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "I haven't come back yet!"
Yulong nodded slightly, and walked inside.
"There is a banquet in the palace today, His Highness may come back later!" Qinglan comforted in a low voice.
Yulong smiled self-deprecatingly, "So what if he came back early?"
In this prince's mansion, she is almost a precious decoration, only the servants call her the prince concubine.When Xiao Lie saw her, he didn't even give her a look.
Entering the inner courtyard, the two had just entered the Hanging Flower Gate when they heard servants and servants in the house talking and laughing behind the flower tree.
"Hurry up and cut it, His Highness and the Crown Princess will be back soon!" The little maid laughed.
The other person said lazily, "What's the rush, Your Highness won't be returning home so early."
"His Highness comes back so late every time, and never enters the courtyard of the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess was left out just after entering the mansion!"
Another person said in a low voice, "I heard from the guard who followed His Highness that a new brothel has just opened in Shengjing, and His Highness will go there every day after the court, and stay until very late before coming back!"
"Ah? No way, His Highness is distinguished, how could he like a woman in a brothel?"
"If your highness really likes who can say no, maybe we will have a side concubine soon in our mansion!"
……
Qinglan frowned, turned her head and saw that Yulong's expression was not very good, she immediately reprimanded, "Who is chewing on the master's tongue? Why don't you get out of here!" Behind the flower tree, it suddenly became quiet and disappeared. movement.
"Get out!" Qing Lan shouted coldly again.
The two servant girls rushed out and knelt on the ground, kowtowed, "Damn the maidservant, the Crown Princess, spare me!"
Yulong asked softly, "Is what you said just now true?"
"No! The slaves are talking nonsense!" the two servant girls hurriedly said.
Yulong glanced at them lightly, then walked along the bluestone road to her yard, and said softly, "If you have a long tongue, you can only talk nonsense, so don't!"
The two maidservants trembled, sweating profusely, "Princess Concubine, please forgive me, servants and maidservants don't dare anymore!"
"Come here!" Qing Lan shouted, and said to the guards who came, "Pull out the tongues of these two slaves, and throw them out of the mansion, and they are not allowed to appear in front of His Highness and Princess!"
"Yes!" The guard responded, and stepped forward to pull the two maids on the ground.
"Crown princess, spare me! The servants really know their mistakes!"
"Sister Qinglan, please spare me!"
The two maids cried and begged for mercy, trembling in fear, Qing Lan didn't even look at them, and waved for the guards to take them down.
After catching up with Yulong in front, Qing Lan hurriedly said, "Don't take the words of the servants seriously, the Crown Prince will definitely not do that!"
Yulong's eyes were filled with coldness, she went back to her room without saying a word.
After Nangong Bi left the palace, she bid farewell to Mrs. Nangong and went back to the General's Mansion in a carriage.
After entering the mansion, Hu Dapao was waiting for her, before Nangong Bi questioned Su Jiu, he had already walked out the door, holding her hand and said with a smile, "You are finally back, let's go, I will take you to meet someone! "
Nangong Bi raised her eyebrows curiously, "Who?"
"You'll know it when you see it!"
Nangong Bi was dragged out of the mansion by him, and a guard outside the door was leading Hu Dapao's horse.
Hu Dapao held the woman's waist with both hands and led her to the horse, kicked the horse and rushed out.

(End of this chapter)
The second lady knelt on the ground to pick up the broken teacup, her body trembling with anger, her lips were bruised.
After she was dismissed by Su Wenqian, the 200 taels of silver she gave was quickly seized by her two sons. Later, Su Wenqian didn't have any money to give to her again. She was kicked out by the shopkeeper of the inn and lived on the street, so she had to go back to Su's house with the cheek.
Su Wenqian had already sold the house to pay the debts of Su Yu and the two, and rented a commoner's house, but at least there was a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
Her daughter didn't live up to it, and she gave birth to a child with the mountain man, and she refused to go back to the mountain.
When the family was in chaos, the eldest lady who had lived outside for a few months suddenly came back, and brought back the bandit who had pretended to be her daughter before, and said it was the eldest miss of the Su family.
The evidence is solid, and there are witnesses who say that Ji Yuxian personally checked it out, and even the details of the clothes he wore when he was rescued from the water were correct.
Moreover, as soon as Su Jiu came back, he bought the former Su house back. Su Wenqian was so happy that he didn't need to ask for proof, and directly admitted that Su Jiu was his daughter.
When Su Wenqian saw Su Jiu, he was both happy and regretful at the same time, tearing up all the time.
This is not pretending, he liked Yuejiu when he was young, and later the second wife told him that Yuejiu had sunk in the middle of the river, so he was very sad for a while.
That day in Ji's mansion, he felt an indescribable familiarity with this woman, but since he never saw Su Jiu again and there were many troubles in the mansion, he forgot about it.
Hearing the eldest lady talk about Su Jiu's experience in these years, Su Wenqian was emotional for a moment and burst into tears.
And I didn't expect his daughter to be so capable now!Opened an escort agency, opened a commercial firm, and the business has already reached Fuyang, which is a hundred times stronger than his son!
The Su family's house was redeemed, so Su Wenqian naturally wanted to go back with the eldest lady, but the second wife of Su Jiudao had already retired, and was no longer part of the Su family, so she could no longer return to the Su house.
Su Wenqian hurriedly pleaded for his second wife to explain, and finally Su Jiu reluctantly agreed, but the second wife can only return to Su's house as a servant.
The second wife had no choice but to agree, at least she would not have to go hungry or cold when she returned to Su's house, and she would have a place to live.
She thought that she still had a certain dignity in the Su family after all, even if she came back, no one would dare to order her. She never thought that Su Jiu's beating and scolding her would be better than being kind to the lowest servants.
Now she finally understood why Su Jiu promised her to come back, it was clearly to revenge and insult her!
Did Su Jiu already know what happened back then?
impossible!
She was so young at that time, it is impossible to remember, if she remembered, she would have come back long ago.
Besides, Nanny Qin is already dead, and there is no proof of her death. She just needs to bite her to death and refuse to admit it!
"Second Madam?" Seeing that she was in a trance, the maid next to her hurriedly asked.
"Qiao'er, go and help me find the master!" Lin said in a low voice.
The servant girl looked embarrassed, "Miss does not allow slaves to help Second Madam."
Mrs. Lin gouged her out and said bitterly, "I didn't ask you to help me clean up the house, so why don't I just call the master?"
The little maid trembled in fright, and hurriedly turned around and left.
After a while, Mrs. Lin, who was kneeling on the ground to pick up the broken porcelain, heard footsteps approaching, her eyes flashed fiercely, and she shook the broken porcelain in her hand vigorously, and blood dripped down the palm of her hand.
As soon as Su Wenqian entered the door, he happened to see it. He hurriedly helped Lin up, looked at her hand cut by the porcelain, and said, "What's the matter?"
Lin hurriedly took her hand back, with an aggrieved look, "Yuejiu thought the tea I made was hot and threw it on my body, but my body didn't catch it, and fell to the ground and broke. Yuejiu asked me to clean it up. clean."
Su Wenqian frowned, ordered Qiao'er to get the wound medicine, and sighed, "Just bear with it! Now it's not the same as before, we live, eat, and the wages of the servants are all paid by Yuejiu, if not Yuejiu, maybe we are all hungry and cold. And what happened back then was indeed your fault, so you should just forgive me!"
Lin burst into tears, "Isn't this concubine doing that for the sake of the Su family? Besides, if she says she is Master Yuejiu, she will believe it. What if Ji Yuxian and her partner together to deceive the madam and the master!"
Su Wenqian frowned, shook his head and said, "No! What's the benefit of them lying to the Su family?"
"My lord sees that she doesn't look like a lady in the slightest. I saw her in the newly opened brothel today. I saw her spend 10 taels of silver for a Qinglou woman, fooling around with Qinglou women all day long. There is such a daughter , isn't the master afraid of ridicule?" Lin blurted out.
Su Wenqian's face turned cold, "The banished son went to the brothel again? Didn't he harm this family enough? He didn't even have the slightest sense of shame and repentance! Didn't he go to arrange Yuejiu in front of you? He has the ability to make him stay away from this family of silver!"
Lin knew that she had slipped her mouth, so she immediately shut up.
At this moment, the servant suddenly came in and said, "Master, Master Ji is here!"
Su Wenqian was startled, greeted him personally, and told Lin by the way, "Go back to your room first, let's talk about it later!"
Lin's face was full of resentment, and he left angrily.
Welcoming Ji Yuxian into the flower hall, Su Wenqian smiled politely, "Young Master Ji is here in the humble house, what's the matter?"
"I'm here to pick up my wife!" Ji Yuxian sat on the chair, with a graceful and dignified figure, and smiled slightly.
"Ma'am?" Su Wenqian said in astonishment.
"Yes, there is no marriage contract between Ji and Su's families. The eldest lady in the house is my son's wife, and we have paid homage to him before." Ji Yuxian said in a leisurely manner.
When Su Wenqian saw that Ji Yuxian had admitted to the marriage of the two families again, his eyes lit up immediately, and he didn't dare to mention the matter of the previous reconciliation, so he nodded hurriedly.
"Then, where is my wife?" Ji Yuxian asked.
"Yue Jiu? The old man will send someone to call Yue Jiu over immediately!" Su Wenqian was so excited that he hurriedly ordered his servants to invite the eldest lady to the flower hall.
After Su Jiu left the flower hall, she went into the Da Furen's room and was practicing calligraphy with her.
The eldest lady looked at her loving face, "When you're free, accompany me to practice calligraphy in the room, don't go out to mess around!"
Su Jiu hooked her lips and said with a smile, "What did Su Wenqian say to you?"
"Isn't what he said true?" The eldest lady smiled at her.
Su Jiu shrugged, noncommittal.
The eldest lady poured a cup of tea for Su Jiu, looked at the handwriting she wrote, and said, "It's very different from the handwriting you wrote when you were young, who taught you?"
"Ji Yuxian" Su Jiu said casually.
Da Furen's eyes flashed when she heard the words, and she said, "I think the eldest son really cares about you, a man worthy of entrustment, what do you think?"
She was only afraid that her daughter would go her own way, love someone she shouldn't love for the rest of her life, share the same bed with her husband, and live alone all her life.
"I didn't think much about it." Su Jiu was obviously perfunctory.
"Jiu'er!" The eldest lady took the pen in her hand and said seriously, "Whether you are Su Jiu or Su Yuejiu, you are engaged to the eldest son, you are his wife!"
Su Jiu smiled nonchalantly, "Don't tell me mother doesn't know that the Su family and the Ji family have reconciled and have nothing to do with each other?"
"But I see that the eldest son still likes you!" The eldest lady said with certainty.
During the month on the mountain, she could clearly see how Ji Yuxian cared and liked Su Jiu.
"I know!" Su Jiu took a deep breath, and turned her eyes to the window.
"What about you? Still like the prince?"
"Xiao Lie?" Su Jiu sneered, "Don't worry, I have figured it out in the past few months. I have never had a relationship with him. I was together because he said he liked me and moved me. Now he has betrayed me." How could I still take those ridiculous feelings to heart when I said it back then?"
"Then why don't you accept the eldest son?" The eldest lady frowned.
Su Jiu was silent for a moment, then turned around and continued to write with a pen, and said in a low voice, "It's not very good now. People don't necessarily need love in life. If they don't, they feel relaxed. Don't worry or worry that the other party will betray you one day, and don't care about it." Does he like other women?"
She is not one of those women who need to rely on her mother's family before marriage and her husband's family after marriage. She can be self-sufficient by herself and live a very comfortable life.
The eldest lady shook her head and sighed, "Mother just wants someone to take care of you. When my mother is old and gone, there will be someone to accompany you!"
Su Jiu looked back and smiled, "Mother will stay with me all the time!"
Da Furen caressed her black hair, "Of course I will!"
"Dong dong dong" knocked on the door several times, and Tao Zi's voice came from outside the door, "Miss, the master sent someone to invite you to the flower hall."
"Understood!" Su Jiu responded, put the pen on the pen holder, picked up a cloak and wrapped it around the lady, and said with a smile, "It's autumn, the weather is cold, mother should pay more attention to her body!"
"Okay, let's go!" The eldest lady smiled softly.
Su Jiu went out, saw Taozi was still waiting outside, pinched her face casually, looked at her pink dress, smiled lightly, "Taozi looks more and more beautiful!"
She was still wearing a man's brocade cannon, her hair was tied high, and her waist was tied with a jade belt. She looked like a romantic and noble son. Even though Tao Zi knew that she was her eldest lady, she still blushed when she teased her, and said with an annoyed smile, "Miss Go, don't make fun of slaves!"
Su Jiu's lips curled into an evil smile, and she turned around.
Su Wenqian looking for her?
Could it be because he punished his beloved second wife?
Then she wanted to see how he would fight against his second wife.
Su Jiu walked towards the flower hall unhurriedly. When she got closer and saw the dark red figure, she slowed down and walked in step by step.
From the moment she appeared, Ji Yuxian's gaze has been on her, from the initial anger and hatred, gradually turned into soft yearning, the thought that he had planned to spank her before disappeared without a trace in an instant.
Su Jiu sat on the opposite chair without changing expression, and said with a smile, "Isn't the eldest son satisfied with the gift Su gave to the eldest son, why don't you leave the beauty here when you have time?"
Su Wenqian looked at Su Jiu's men's robe and her lazy posture, fearing that she would be disgusted by Ji Yuxian, a look of embarrassment slid across his face, and coughed softly, "Yue Jiu, the eldest son came to see you specially!"
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows and looked at Ji Yuxian.
After not seeing each other for several months, the girl seemed to pop out of his late-night dream, the man stared at her face with thick eyes and said, "Just now I have spoken to my father-in-law, I am here to take my wife back to the house. "
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows, looked at Su Wenqian, and asked suspiciously, "Hasn't the marriage between the Su family and the Ji family been dissolved?"
Su Wenqian smiled awkwardly, but did not speak.
Ji Yuxian took out the Heli book from his bosom, unfolded it and showed it to Su Jiu, "Is this what Ma'am said? I didn't sign it because my husband didn't sign it, so it doesn't count. It is clearly recorded in the household registration of the government office that Ji's eldest son Ji Yuxian's wife, Su Yuejiu!"
Su Nine
Glancing at He Li's book, he said in a low voice, "Since we failed to reconcile last time, let's do it again!"
Ji Yuxian's face suddenly turned cold, and he looked at her gloomyly, "Then I want to know the reason why Madam wants to reconcile?"
Su Wenqian panicked even more, "Yes, Yuejiu, reconciliation is not a trivial matter, you have to think it over carefully, and you must not be hasty!"
Su Jiu held the tea in his hand and remained silent.
Ji Yuxian said to Su Wenqian, "Master Yuezhang, please go out for a while, I have a few words that I want to say to my wife alone."
Su Wenqian got up immediately and said with a smile, "Okay, let's talk slowly, Yuejiu has been stubborn since he was a child, so the eldest son will take care of him."
"Yes, I understand my wife's temper!" Ji Yuxian chuckled lightly.
"Yuejiu, have a good talk with the eldest son!" Su Wenqian said flatteringly, turned around and went out, taking away all the servants in the room and closing the door.
There were only two of them left in the room, Ji Yuxian was sitting opposite, his long eyes covered with mist, just staring at her lukewarmly.
Su Jiu smiled and looked over, "If the eldest son delays any longer, it will be dark soon, 10 taels of silver for one night, don't waste it!"
Ji Yuxian's face was ashen, he got up and went over, grabbed the girl's arm, pulled her up and hugged her in his arms, his chest was filled with suffocation, but as soon as he touched her, it instantly disappeared without a trace.
A vague sigh overflowed from the thin lips, and the tone was as soft and pampering as ever, "Have you had enough trouble? I haven't settled the bill with you for running away from home. How dare you put a woman in your husband's arms? It's just eating!" It's decided that I dare not hit you, right?"
The man was covered with the water lotus fragrance that Su Jiu was familiar with. She took a deep breath very lightly, and said in a light tone, "Ji Yuxian, I am not suitable to be Mrs. Ji Shao!"
"Whether it's suitable or not, I have the final say!" The man tilted his head and kissed the sensitive part of her ear, and asked in a low voice, "Did you not be happy being the young lady in the Ji Mansion before? You said that you like being with me."
A series of shudders came from under the man's lips, Su Jiu's chest went numb, and she almost collapsed into the man's arms, she hurriedly turned her head away, "But I'm happier now."
"Where are you happy?" Ji Yuxian pinched her chin to prevent her from avoiding it, leaned over to hold the corner of her lips, "It's very happy to hang out with those women in the brothel."
"Those women are gentle and considerate, they say exactly what they say, and naturally make the young master happy!"
Ji Yuxian bit her earlobe hard, and said in a hateful voice, "Young master? You really treat yourself like a master, if you dare to mess around again, I will kill those women directly!"
Su Jiu pushed him away with both hands, turned around, "Ji Yuxian, don't force me!"
"If you don't force you, you will be bullied like last time!" Ji Yuxian hugged her from the back and laughed coldly.
I haven't seen her for nearly three months, and the man couldn't help but want to get close to her. Moreover, she was his legitimate wife, whom he hugged and kissed.
Su Jiu's face turned pale after hearing his words, and her breath suddenly became cold.
Ji Yuxian knew that he had touched her sore spot, resting his chin on her shoulder, his voice couldn't help slowing down, "You still can't let him go? How long will it take to let go! Married a wife but has been living alone in an empty room, isn't Madam You should be considerate as a husband."
Su Jiu raised her eyebrows, "So I spent 10 taels of silver to give you a beauty, isn't that considerate enough!"
"Don't dare to say it!" Ji Yuxian turned the woman around abruptly, unable to resist her refusal, bowed his head and kissed her on the lips.
Su Jiu struggled for a while, but her body was so weak that she put her rejecting hand on his chest as if she was holding onto the man tightly. From the beginning until now, she has been unable to refuse his intimacy.
Could it be because the man is so beautiful, and his kissing skills make people feel comfortable.
Su Jiu was thinking wildly, and was dismissed by the man as being inattentive, so she bit her tongue hard.
Su Jiu glared at him painfully, and bit back without hesitation, but was so deeply entangled by the man that she couldn't exert any strength, so she retreated steadily and broke into an army.
The sky gradually darkened, and with Su Wenqian's order, no servant dared to approach the flower hall, and in the silent room, there was only the sound of kissing water.
After an unknown amount of time, Su Jiu stopped and leaned weakly on the man's body, her clear eyes filled with spring water, and she gasped slightly.
Ji Yuxian wrapped her arms around her waist, and kept sizzling kisses on the corners of her eyebrows and eyes, and said in a low voice, "You obviously like to be close to me, how long are you going to run away?"
Su Jiu grabbed his shoulder with her palm, bit her lip and remained silent.
"Come home with your husband!" Ji Yuxian coaxed her softly by biting her thin white earlobe.
The water in Su Jiu's eyes gradually recovered, she pushed the man away again, pursed her red and swollen lips, with a charming expression, but her tone was light,
"I said I won't go back, if you force me again, I will never see you again!"
The tenderness in Ji Yuxian's phoenix eyes dissipated, and she looked at her with anger and hatred, "Su Yuejiu, are you determined to eat me?"
Su Jiu shrugged, "The eldest son voluntarily falls for me, what can I do?"
Ji Yuxian's lips curled into a self-deprecating sneer, "Okay, it's my son who is willing to be humble to fall in love with a heartless woman like you. I'm going to clean up the building now, and dote on the woman my wife picked for me. Maybe, after a night of love, the Japanese master will forget you tomorrow!"
After the man finished speaking, he turned around and left, decisive and indifferent.
Su Jiu frowned, staring coldly at the man's back.
Su Wenqian walked in and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with the eldest son?"
Su Jiu's expression was displeased, and she walked away without saying a word!
At night, when it was almost midnight, the eldest lady got up at night and saw that the light in Su Jiu's room was still on, she knocked on the door and went in, and saw Su Jiu sitting on a low couch reading a book.
"Why don't you go to bed so late?" The lady walked over, took out the book in Su Jiu's hand, and put it aside, "It's late at night, don't read it, it will hurt your eyes."
Su Jiu stretched out her arms to embrace the eldest lady, buried her head in her arms, and said in a muffled voice, "Mother, I can't sleep."
"The eldest son came today, and I heard that he left very angry. What did you say to make him angry?" The eldest lady asked softly, stroking her black hair.
"I, I told him to find another woman!" Su Jiu whispered.
The eldest lady sighed deeply, "You always make him sad like this, sooner or later he will really give up and not like you!"
Su Jiu sniffed and said softly, "But I can't go back to Ji's Mansion right now."
"why?"
Su Jiu shook her head and said nothing.
"You have suffered so much before, mother only hopes that you will live better. I know you have your own ideas, mother can't force it, but the body is still the most important thing, go to sleep, don't think about it!"
Su Jiu nodded, "Mother, go to sleep, I will sleep right away!"
"Okay!" The eldest lady patted her on the shoulder before turning around and leaving the room.
Su Jiu was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, listening to the sound of drums beating the third watch outside, she sat up suddenly.
Biting her lip, Su Jiu got up, put on her clothes, and left the room silently, darting into the darkness.
At this hour, the only one still open to welcome customers is the brothel.
However, after a while, Qinglou has also quieted down. After entering, there were only a few guests drinking with their arms around the woman, and the voice of the girl who played and sang was exhausted and became lazy.
Su Jiu walked straight towards the third floor. From time to time, blushing voices could be heard from the closed rooms on both sides of the corridor. Su Jiu's face turned slightly pale, and her pace began to speed up.
When they reached the door on the third floor, Su Jiu bit her lip and kicked the door open.
A man and a woman were sitting in front of the table inside. The woman was leaning on the wooden chair and was about to fall asleep, while the man was still drinking by himself.
A strong smell of alcohol spread over the face, and the man had been drinking for a long time while sitting here.
Hearing the sound of kicking the door, the man turned his head slowly, looked at her with a pair of dark eyes, and said in a low voice, "You are finally here!"
After a moment of astonishment, Su Jiu turned around and left.
"Ajiu!"
The man got up quickly and grabbed Su Jiu's wrist, "Ah Jiu, even if you want to sentence me to death, you should give me a chance to defend yourself, right?"
Su Jiu broke away from the man's hand, returned to laughing and said, "His Royal Highness is joking, how can a commoner in the lower district dare to sentence His Highness to death?"
"Ah Jiu!" Xiao Lie grabbed Su Jiu's wrist again, turned his head and said coldly to the woman behind him, "You go out first!"
Qian Qiu had already been awakened, looked at the two of them, stepped back silently, and closed the door.
Without waiting for Su Jiu to dodge, this time the man said directly, "At that time, my father was poisoned and controlled by Xiao Jing. I had no choice but to marry Princess Yulong and win over the Yunnan Palace, otherwise my father's life would be in danger. I and Yulong The princess has discussed it, and when the matter is resolved, we will reconcile, I have no husband and wife relationship with her, I have been waiting for you!"
"Xiao Lie!" Su Jiu turned around, brushed his hand away, and looked at him calmly, "You don't have to make peace with Princess Yulong, and it is impossible for me to be with you. You are the most suitable one. Between us Regardless of their status, there should be no intersection."
"No!" Xiao Lie's dark eyes were painful, "We didn't get along very well before, and there is no place in my heart at all!"
Su Jiu took a step back, "Xiao Lie, we can't go back, we can't go back from the day you married Yulong!"
"But it's a lie that I married Yulong, and I'm sincere to you!"
Su Jiu smiled, "Fake? I saw with my own eyes that you welcomed her into the door and married her. How could this be fake?"
"You and Ji Yuxian also worshiped, why can I not mind? Or, the person you like is still him, and leaving me is the relief you can't wait for?" The man's handsome face was gloomy.
Su Jiu glanced at him coldly, and said with a sneer, "The Crown Princess in His Royal Highness's residence is still Yulong, what qualifications does Your Highness have to say these things to me?"
Xiao Lie's face suddenly turned pale.
Su Jiu snorted softly, turned around and walked out the door, and walked downstairs slowly, feeling unspeakably happy in her heart, left the Qinglou, and went home to sleep!
Three days later it will be the annual Mid-Autumn Festival. Empress Dowager Xiao is not in good health recently, so she does not participate in the palace banquet at night, so the palace ladies and some officials' wives went to the palace early in the morning to pay their respects.
Nangong Bi is the imperial princess and the wife of the third-rank general, so she can no longer be as lazy as before, and she has to follow her mother into the palace.
Once entering Fushou Palace, the courtyard was full of well-dressed women, chatting in groups of three or four.
The most eye-catching thing is the side of the Crown Princess, surrounded by a circle of elegantly dressed women, who are flattering her.
Nangong Bi cast a cold glance, and sat down on the porch with her mother to rest.
Empress Dowager Xiao got up late today and was still having breakfast. The aunt in charge came out and asked everyone to wait for a while.
Everyone naturally responded humbly, not daring to disturb the Queen Mother's meal.
Seeing Nangong Bi, Yulong took the initiative to come over, and said with a smile, "When did Mrs. Nangong and Mrs. Hu come?"
Mrs. Nangong was about to get up, but she was grabbed by Nangong Bi, who sneered and said, "When did we come, and what does it have to do with the princess? Do you think I didn't take the initiative to go over to say hello?"
Yulong frowned, and said with a light smile, "Madam Hu is serious. After I enter Beijing, it is rare to have a few close friends. I just want to get closer to Madam Hu!"
Nangong Bi looked up at her, with a hint of sarcasm on the corner of her lips, and said crisply, "I don't dare to get close to the Crown Princess, if I'm betrayed one day, I'm not as lucky as Su Jiu to survive!"
Yulong's face turned pale in an instant, and she looked at the eloquent girl indifferently.
Mrs. Nangong frowned and winked at Nangong Bi, stood up and said with a smile, "The little girl never speaks thoughtfully, she didn't mean to offend the Crown Princess, please don't be as knowledgeable as her!"
Yulong smiled sarcastically, "Yes!"
With a slight nod, Yulong flicked her sleeves, turned and left.
After walking two steps, Yulong turned her head, still with a dignified smile on her face, "I heard that Su Jiu has returned, Madam Hu and her are so close, you should already know it!"
Nangong Bi was startled, she really didn't know that Su Jiu had returned to Beijing, she disappeared for three months, and she didn't even tell her when she came back.
And Hu Dapao, he must have known about it and kept it from her!
Nangong Bi was upset, but raised her head and smiled coquettishly, "The princess doesn't have to think of ways to provoke, no matter how good my relationship with Su Jiu is, I won't be stabbed in the back when we are clearly on good terms!"
Yulong's eyes turned cold, she glanced at her lightly, then turned and left!
Mrs. Nangong looked at her daughter reproachfully, and said in a low voice, "After all, Yulong is the crown princess, the future empress, and she took the initiative to come and talk to us. Why is Bi'er so ignorant of etiquette?"
Nangong Bi snorted disdainfully, "What kind of etiquette and old love can we have with this kind of villain?"
Mrs. Nangong shook her head, "No matter what, Bi'er can't talk like this so she doesn't leave a way out for herself. If the princess feels resentful towards you in her heart, she will definitely retaliate in the future."
"I'm not afraid of her!" Nangong Bi said angrily.
Mrs. Nangong also understood her daughter's temper, and persuaded, "You are already a wife, you can no longer be as willful and messing around as before, you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Cannon, everything you say and do now is related to him ,Understand?"
When Hu Dapao was mentioned, Nangong Bicai's expression calmed down, and he put his arms around Mrs. Nangong's arm and swayed coquettishly, "My daughter knows, at worst, I will run away when I see the princess, and I will scold her behind my back!"
Mrs. Nangong chuckled, and nodded helplessly between the woman's eyebrows, "You are really a child!"
After nearly half an hour, the aunt in charge who served the Empress Dowager Xiao came out and asked everyone to line up in order to have an audience inside.
Among these people, the empress with the highest status was naturally the empress, and then the crown princess. The two entered the inner hall one after the other to say hello and congratulate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Empress Dowager Xiao sat on the back of the large golden pomelo beauty with carved phoenix and gold, wearing a palace dress inlaid with gold silk and hibiscus color blessing pattern, she was very happy to see Yulong, "This child looks good, has a good temperament, and is kind You really are a rare couple!"
The queen stood aside with a pale face.
Ever since Xiao Lie was made crown prince, the queen's complexion became more and more ugly day by day, and she couldn't even find an excuse to come to the Empress Dowager Xiao's daily greetings.
"Thank you for your compliment!" Yulong was wearing a lilac-colored golden hundred butterfly and flower cloud satin palace dress, which was elegant and fresh, softening her own heroic temperament, dignified and soft, and had a grand demeanor.
Concubine Rong's eyes flickered, and she said with a smile, "The Empress Dowager likes Yulong, so let Yulong come to the palace to accompany you more from now on!"
"Okay, okay!" Empress Dowager Xiao loved the house and Wu, she just liked it when she looked at Yulong, and smiled happily.
Several people had a conversation, and other wives also entered the palace to pay their respects, and Empress Dowager Xiao responded to them one by one.
At the end, Empress Dowager Xiao was a little tired, so she asked everyone to leave and was accompanied by Concubine Rong to the bedroom.
"The Ai family hasn't seen Jingrou for a long time. A few days ago, someone invited her into the palace, but she was not at the Su family. Now she is back?" asked the Empress Dowager Xiao.
"Yes, I heard that Sister Rou has returned, and she has been with her daughter recently, so she didn't go to the palace to visit the Queen Mother." Concubine Rong said softly.
"Her daughter is also a poor child. She was robbed by mountain bandits and divorced by the Ji Mansion. When Jingrou is allowed to enter the palace again, let her bring her daughter."
"Yes!"
Yulong came out from the palace, sat on the carriage, closed her eyes, with a faint tiredness on her face.
Su Jiu has returned!
But he didn't come to her, not even any movement.
The more this happened, the more uneasy she felt.
Qinglan brought tea to her, and said displeasedly, "The young lady of the Nangong family is so disrespectful to the princess, why do you put up with her?"
Yulong opened her eyes slightly, and said softly, "It's just a girl who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, why should I have the same knowledge as her?"
"But this servant is not convinced on behalf of the Crown Princess. You are His Highness the Crown Prince who personally proposed to the Emperor, the Crown Princess who is being married by the matchmaker, and it's her turn to give pointers?" Qing Lan said angrily.
"His Royal Highness has just appointed the crown prince, and his status is not stable. He still needs the support of the Nangong family and Hu Dapao. Why should I cause unnecessary trouble for him just for the sake of talking quickly?" Yulong held the tea, even though she was alone with her The servant girl also sat very upright.
"Yes, the Crown Princess has a lot of people, so don't bother with her!" The angry expression on Qing Lan's face was replaced by complacency.
The carriage stopped in front of the Prince's Mansion, Qinglan took Yulong's arm and got out of the carriage, walking towards the gate of the mansion.
"Has His Royal Highness returned to the residence?" Yulong asked when she entered the door.
The guard next to him hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "I haven't come back yet!"
Yulong nodded slightly, and walked inside.
"There is a banquet in the palace today, His Highness may come back later!" Qinglan comforted in a low voice.
Yulong smiled self-deprecatingly, "So what if he came back early?"
In this prince's mansion, she is almost a precious decoration, only the servants call her the prince concubine.When Xiao Lie saw her, he didn't even give her a look.
Entering the inner courtyard, the two had just entered the Hanging Flower Gate when they heard servants and servants in the house talking and laughing behind the flower tree.
"Hurry up and cut it, His Highness and the Crown Princess will be back soon!" The little maid laughed.
The other person said lazily, "What's the rush, Your Highness won't be returning home so early."
"His Highness comes back so late every time, and never enters the courtyard of the Crown Princess. The Crown Princess was left out just after entering the mansion!"
Another person said in a low voice, "I heard from the guard who followed His Highness that a new brothel has just opened in Shengjing, and His Highness will go there every day after the court, and stay until very late before coming back!"
"Ah? No way, His Highness is distinguished, how could he like a woman in a brothel?"
"If your highness really likes who can say no, maybe we will have a side concubine soon in our mansion!"
……
Qinglan frowned, turned her head and saw that Yulong's expression was not very good, she immediately reprimanded, "Who is chewing on the master's tongue? Why don't you get out of here!" Behind the flower tree, it suddenly became quiet and disappeared. movement.
"Get out!" Qing Lan shouted coldly again.
The two servant girls rushed out and knelt on the ground, kowtowed, "Damn the maidservant, the Crown Princess, spare me!"
Yulong asked softly, "Is what you said just now true?"
"No! The slaves are talking nonsense!" the two servant girls hurriedly said.
Yulong glanced at them lightly, then walked along the bluestone road to her yard, and said softly, "If you have a long tongue, you can only talk nonsense, so don't!"
The two maidservants trembled, sweating profusely, "Princess Concubine, please forgive me, servants and maidservants don't dare anymore!"
"Come here!" Qing Lan shouted, and said to the guards who came, "Pull out the tongues of these two slaves, and throw them out of the mansion, and they are not allowed to appear in front of His Highness and Princess!"
"Yes!" The guard responded, and stepped forward to pull the two maids on the ground.
"Crown princess, spare me! The servants really know their mistakes!"
"Sister Qinglan, please spare me!"
The two maids cried and begged for mercy, trembling in fear, Qing Lan didn't even look at them, and waved for the guards to take them down.
After catching up with Yulong in front, Qing Lan hurriedly said, "Don't take the words of the servants seriously, the Crown Prince will definitely not do that!"
Yulong's eyes were filled with coldness, she went back to her room without saying a word.
After Nangong Bi left the palace, she bid farewell to Mrs. Nangong and went back to the General's Mansion in a carriage.
After entering the mansion, Hu Dapao was waiting for her, before Nangong Bi questioned Su Jiu, he had already walked out the door, holding her hand and said with a smile, "You are finally back, let's go, I will take you to meet someone! "
Nangong Bi raised her eyebrows curiously, "Who?"
"You'll know it when you see it!"
Nangong Bi was dragged out of the mansion by him, and a guard outside the door was leading Hu Dapao's horse.
Hu Dapao held the woman's waist with both hands and led her to the horse, kicked the horse and rushed out.
