Zuo Xiangning went back and learned from Jiang what Zuo Xiangrong said.

When Jiang heard that Zuo Xiangrong didn't know about this at all, her face became extremely ugly.

"Why does King Chu need to use the name of Princess Chu?"

Zuo Xiangning and Zuo Xiangrong didn't know why King Chu said this.

"The King of Chu thought that you would agree if he said it was the eldest sister." Zuo Xiangning guessed.

"Anyway, I have rejected the marriage proposal from Prince Liang's Mansion." Mrs. Jiang rubbed her temples with a headache.

She always thought that her eldest daughter married well, but now it seems that her eldest daughter should be more thoughtful.

Both Jiang and Zuo Xiangning were in extremely heavy moods.

Because they could all see that King Chu and Princess Chu were slightly at odds now, which was a big blow to everyone who wholeheartedly supported King Chu.

The next day, the proposer from Prince Liang's palace came again, but Jiang flatly refused again.

On the third day, the emperor summoned Zuo Xiangning into the palace and set a date for Zuo Xiangning to leave the capital six days later.

Jiang's mood suddenly became much lower. She cheered up and went to the Min Mansion to discuss the matters decided by the two families with Mrs. Min.

Zuo Xiangning went to the other courtyard outside the city and saw the ten newly bought girls by Bingyun. She named them each with the word "purple", from purple one to purple ten.

She left Bingyun at the farm to train these ten people, while Bingyu left the capital with her.

She took away the four people Ling Xiao arranged to come over.

Zhang Rui's family stayed in the capital.

"I will tell Madam that you all will wait for Madam first, and Zhang Rui will be in charge of the property under my name." Zuo Xiangning arranged for everyone, soaked in the hot spring for a while, and then returned home in the afternoon.

When she entered the Youth Courtyard, she found that something was wrong.

There was silence in the yard, and all the girls and women were standing in the yard.

Zuo Xiangning entered the main room and saw Mr. Jiang talking to Cai's mother with a pale face.

"What happened?" Zuo Xiangning sat next to Jiang and asked with concern, "Did the talks with the Min family not go well?"

"The Min family is sensible and has not made any demands. They have already agreed that the marriage will be scheduled for the end of this year." Jiang said coldly: "This morning, while we were not at home, Zuo Ziteng came over with the matchmaker from Prince Liang's Mansion. , and exchanged Geng Tie with the old lady. The old lady said that your father is seriously ill, and she wants to celebrate your father's happiness. Everything will be kept simple, and it has been arranged to marry Xiangyu into Prince Liang's palace on the tenth day of next month."

"Ah?" Zuo Xiangning didn't expect that Mrs. Zuo and Zuo Ziteng would team up to do such a big thing, "Then does my third sister know?"

"Why don't you know?" Mrs. Jiang sneered, "Today, the matchmaker for Prince Liang's Mansion is Mrs. Wu of Hanlin Academy. She came to exchange invitations with the old lady in the morning, and came to me again in the afternoon and said politely, "Liang Wang was worried and wanted her to help check Zuo Xiangyu's appearance and conduct. I was already very angry, and after hearing what she said, I became even more furious, but your cousin from the Jiang family has just arrived at the Hanlin Academy. , happened to be working under Mr. Wu, so I had to treat her with courtesy." Jiang took a sip of tea angrily, and then continued: "I asked someone to invite Zuo Xiangyu, and specifically asked Mother Cai to invite her. Cai's mother told her that Mrs. Wu came to see her on behalf of Prince Liang. As long as she behaves inappropriately in front of Mrs. Wu, if I find any excuse, the marriage will most likely be canceled. But who would have thought that, Zuo Xiangyu is very happy at all... After doing this for a long time, we, mother and daughter, are all fools, and we are being fooled around by the three of them!"

Jiang patted his chest angrily with his palms.

"Zuo Xiangyu also said in front of Mrs. Wu that everything was up to her mother. I said that the age difference between her and King Liang was too big to be suitable. But Zuo Xiangyu said that she felt that age was not a problem, mainly because she was afraid. Mother feels that the Zuo family has been disgraced and criticized..." Jiang took a deep breath, "The expression and tone of her words are exactly the same as those of Aunt Liu! It can really make someone angry to death!"

Zuo Xiangning simply couldn't believe what she heard.

Could it be that Zuo Xiangyu was just acting in front of her, just looking for this opportunity to deliberately damage the reputation of Jiang's aunt?

"I'll go see her." Zuo Xiangning stood up and said.

"She should be in Shi'antang now, discussing strategies with Mrs. Zuo and Zuo Ziteng." Jiang said: "You should stay away from her in the future. She is very cunning. Be careful of being deceived by her again." !”

Zuo Xiangning returned to Xianglanzhai and asked someone to look at Zuo Xiangyu. When she came back, she told herself.

Before the people sent out could come back, Zuo Xiangyu ran over first.

She looked at Zuo Xiangning with a smile on her face, "Where did the fourth sister go today? Why did she come back at this time?"

"Didn't you say you don't want to marry Prince Liang?" Zuo Xiangning frowned and said, "This is your life-long event. You have to think about it clearly. Don't act out of emotion and harm yourself."

"Do you believe me when I say I don't want to?" Zuo Xiangyu looked at Zuo Xiangning's pink face with a smile, "If I become Princess Liang, my wife will have to bow when she sees me. That's Chu." When the princess sees me, she has to call me aunt. Why don't I want such an honor? Aren't I just short of the word "concubine" in this life? All the children I will give birth to in the future will be legitimate children, and they will also be noble. The prince of the royal palace, this is the day I have dreamed of, why wouldn’t I want it?”

Zuo Xiangning sighed, and her brows gradually relaxed, "Since this is what the third sister has dreamed of, I wish the third sister that she will get her wish, and I also hope that you will be happy in the future."

Zuo Xiangyu, who had just been brainwashed by Mrs. Zuo, thought that Zuo Xiangning would be envious and jealous of her, but who would have thought that Zuo Xiangning just blessed her lightly and didn't seem to care.

"If the fourth sister has the opportunity to return to the capital in the future, I will invite the fourth sister to stay for a few days in Prince Liang's Mansion. There is a large lotus pond in the backyard of Prince Liang's Mansion. It is very beautiful to drink tea on the pavilion in the middle of the pond in the hot summer." Zuo. Xiangyu said with a smile.

"Thank you Third Sister for your kindness. I have a conflict with water, and I'm even more afraid that Third Sister will miss me and push me into her hand to feed the fish. It's better for Third Sister to slowly sip tea in the lotus pond." Zuo Xiangning said to Pan Xia Said: "Let someone come in and change my clothes. I'm a little tired and want to lie down for a while."

"Fourth sister, are you trying to chase me away? You will be leaving Beijing in a few days. Don't you want to say a few more words to your sister?" Zuo Xiangyu asked with a smile.

"Third sister and I have never talked to each other. If third sister has anything to say, we should leave it to her future third brother-in-law to talk to her slowly. It's just that the third brother-in-law is already old and I don't know if he and third sister have anything in common. Also, When the third sister talks to him, it's best to speak louder so that the third brother-in-law can't hear her clearly!" Zuo Xiangning looked at her arrogant look and couldn't help but stab her.

"How are you talking?" Zuo Xiangyu's face changed as Zuo Xiangning wished.

"However, it's okay if the third brother-in-law can't hear it. There are many concubines in Prince Liang's palace. The third sister can talk to them more. You should have a lot in common. After all, you all serve the same husband. Of course, the third sister also You can often chat with your concubine daughters. You are all born as concubines, so you should have many common topics..."

"Zuo Xiangning! You are so brave!" Zuo Xiangyu waved her hand towards Zuo Xiangning angrily.

Bingyu reached out from the side, and with just a slight flick, Zuo Xiangyu was thrown four or five steps away.

Zuo Xiangning sneered twice and said: "Third sister is not Princess Liang yet, it's best not to be so arrogant!"
