royal girl

Chapter 227
Everyone's focus fell on Huiyu. Huiyu looked at Xia Bingyu with a smile on her face, but her heart became sharp.Originally, she and Ji Qiyu suspected Yue Shuiqing's identity, but they were not quite sure, but now that Xia Bingyu was so aggressive, Huiyu felt that this matter was more and more likely.In particular, the topic of Yue Shuiqing was first brought up by Xia Bingyu.

Speaking of which, Huiyu had fought against Xia Bingyu several times since marrying Ji Qiyu, but to be honest, the two of them were at most talking tit for tat, and most of the time they just tried to cover it up.But Xia Bingyu's words and deeds today are a little weird, as if she is chasing Huiyu and refuses to let go.Huiyu can naturally sense the difference, but there are some things she can't say.

If it can be confirmed that Yue Shuiqing is really a fake, then Xia Bingyu has only one purpose in letting Yue Shuiqing come out to meet people in such a hurry, which is to force Huiyu and Ji Qiyu to first reveal the fake Yue Shuiqing's identity. After the decision is made, Huiyu can't figure out what Xia Bingyu will do with it after the decision is made, but it must be nothing good.

How could Huiyu let go so easily, and was about to tactfully refuse, when Chu Ke said, "Second sister-in-law is really enthusiastic about the housework of the fourth sibling's house. Those who didn't know would think that Yue Shuiqing and second sister-in-law It's a relative. If the second sister-in-law is really curious, I can go and watch it myself. I don't want to see the jokes of the little girl, I will wait for the fourth sibling to post a post after the year, and the spring is a good time to bloom." Speaking of Here Chu Ke paused, and looked at Xia Bingyu with a half-smile, "Speaking of which, Miss Yue still has filial piety on her body, isn't she the second sister-in-law?"

This is a bit powerful. If a girl wears filial piety, you have to see her. How can there be any reason for wearing filial piety to entertain guests? What kind of heart do you have?
Chu Ke and Xia Bingyu had never dealt with each other. Huiyu and Zhang Yuqiong had seen each other like this before, but this was the first time seeing Princess Huai, Princess Yi and Princess Jia. The expressions of all three were somewhat surprised. Obviously shocked by Chu Ke's merciless words.The disagreement between Chu Ke and Xia Bingyu was buried when she was in her boudoir, not to mention that Chu Ke was forced to marry King Chun because of the Xia family's handwriting behind it, Chu Ke naturally hated Xia Bingyu very much.Chu Ke didn't even flatter King Chun, let alone Xia Bingyu.

Linguo’s mansion and Xinguo’s mansion are also bad debts. At the beginning, Chu Jing participated in the draft and wanted to marry Ji Qiyu, but she didn’t expect to be tricked by Xia Bingyu, and even Princess Jin didn’t get her. In the end, Chu Ke was accused of marrying her. To Alcohol King.Chu Jing and Sister Chu Ke turned against each other, making the Duke's Mansion and the Duke of Xinguo's Mansion also enemies. In order to make up for this mistake, the Duke of Xinguo's Mansion let the eldest son Xia Shanchang marry Chu Jing as his wife, and the relationship between the two families was reconciled.The older generation reconciled, but because of this, Chu Ke and Xia Bingyu were even more at odds. The relationship between Chu Jing and Xia Bingyu, the sisters-in-law, was also very cold, and the relationship between Chu Jing and Xia Shanchang was not harmonious.It can be seen from the fact that Ping's full moon Chu Jing did not go to Ning Wangfu but went to Fengyuan last time, but these things are usually hidden in the dark. When there is a chance, Chu Ke may not embarrass Xia Bingyu.

The expression on Xia Bingyu's face was slightly stiff, but she quickly covered it up, and said with a surprised face: "Thanks to the reminder from the third sibling, I forgot all about this, I'm really sorry, fourth sibling, look at me This memory."

Huiyu looked at Xia Bingyu with both eyes, the expression on her face did not change, she just smiled and said softly: "No one is perfect, not to mention that the second sister-in-law has a new brother Ping in her family, and she has to take care of sister Jiu. Sister Jiu's health is not very good when she enters the autumn, and the second sister-in-law should also take care of herself, so as not to exhaust herself."

Xia Bingyu only gave birth to a daughter, and King Ning's two sons were both born to his side concubine Dong Wan, and Dong Wan was the cousin of Princess Jing.Who doesn't know that this is a thorn in Princess Ning's heart, but Princess Jing said it in such a concerned tone, it really makes people feel embarrassed to vent their anger.

"Thank you four brothers and sisters for your concern. I'm fine here. Brother Ping is well-behaved and obedient. Concubine Dong has been recuperating since she gave birth in poor health. Most of the time, Brother Ping is watching in front of me. I like it very much." This kid." Xia Bingyu looked at Huiyu and said with a smile.

Huiyu raised her eyebrows slightly, and her smile softened, "Brother Ping is much more blessed than his older brother Jia. He can get the blue eyes of his aunt. I think Jia brother almost lost his life once. The second sister-in-law is taking care of Brother Ping, and I think my uncle and aunt will be very grateful."

At the beginning, Dong Wan and Jia Geer's carriage overturned had different opinions, but now Huiyu brought it up again, Xia Bingyu's expression was naturally not good-looking, not to mention that Huiyu also brought Ding Guogong and his wife out to make a public appearance. There is no one behind Dong Wan who warned her.

"Fourth younger siblings really like to joke, why should Dingguo's family worry about the family affairs of Prince Ning's mansion." Xia Bingyu's words were a bit harsh, even looking at Huiyu with a bit of hostility in her eyes.

"It turns out that the second sister-in-law also understands this truth. I thought that the second sister-in-law is so interested in my family affairs in Prince Jing's mansion, and she is very happy that others are interested in the family affairs in Prince Ning's mansion."

In the end, Huiyu got back to Yue Shuiqing's matter and counterattacked Xia Bingyu fiercely. Xia Bingyu naturally felt that it was very ugly, and she didn't say anything for a while.

"Why are you so happy? Whose housework are you interested in?"

Concubine Han's voice came from outside the hall, Huiyu and the others got up quickly, and saw Concubine Han, Concubine Xian, Concubine De and others walking in slowly behind the concubine, and everyone quickly saluted, "Here Greetings, ladies and gentlemen."

"Get up." The imperial concubine walked in the front and sat down in her seat before she spoke slowly.

Everyone sat down one after another, Concubine Han's eyes seemed to have missed Huiyu inadvertently, and finally fell on Xia Bingyu, and the brows and eyes became more and more joyful.

Concubine Han asked a question just now, but no one spoke at this time, and the hall fell silent for a while.Huiyu knew that she had to speak first about this matter, and if Xia Bingyu answered first, she might say what she said.Without hesitation at the moment, he smiled and said: "Our sisters-in-law are joking. This is not my prince's cousin who came all the way to visit relatives. The second sister-in-law said that she wanted to meet her cousin and wanted me to prepare a banquet for everyone. Introduce, introduce and recognize relatives. The third sister-in-law said that the cousin still wears filial piety. It is not good to meet people at a banquet at this time, and the cousin is from the countryside. The prince and I also thought that the countryside is a small place after all, and the rules must be There is something lacking. My cousin is a girl and she has to take care of her face, so I asked Nanny You to explain the rules and etiquette to her first, so that she can look better when she meets people, and we are talking about this."

Hearing that what Huiyu said was quite standard, but thinking about it carefully, Xia Bingyu was rude. Huiyu took the opportunity to clarify the words first, but Xia Bingyu was not easy to make up for herself, and felt a little ugly for a while .

Concubine Han chuckled, and instead of looking at Huiyu, she turned to Concubine Liang and Concubine Gui, and said, "This is an interesting thing, what do Concubine Gui and Concubine Liang think?"

The imperial concubine flicked her fingernails stained with fresh flower juice, she just smiled and said nothing.Concubine Liang glanced at Concubine Han lightly, with a smile on her smug face, she picked up the conversation, and said slowly: "It's a bit interesting, Princess Ning and Princess Jin both have reason, but I don't know what Princess Jing intends to do. what to do?"

Although she knew Concubine Liang was not a cheap lamp, but now she easily threw the topic back to Huiyu, which still made Huiyu sneer inwardly.Concubine Han actually wanted to help herself. After all, King Su and King Ning are not dealing with each other very much now. Concubine Liang would be happy to find fault with Princess Ning, but she didn't expect Concubine Liang to be so cunning and unwilling to be fooled at all. Huiyu roasted on the fire.Everyone in the palace is a human being, Huiyu also knows this truth, but when the flames of war spread to him, he also took a look at Concubine Liang.

Huiyu was very shy, and responded very obediently, "I listen to our prince."

As a result, the hall was instantly quiet.

Prince Jing's affection for Concubine Jing is so deep in the capital, who doesn't know that Concubine Jing said such a sentence, which is actually true at all, but from Huiyu's mouth, there is just a little bit...the taste of being beaten what.

"Princess Jing is really a role model for women, Second Madam Dong taught her well." Concubine Han said.

Marrying from a husband, Huiyu's words really did not violate this principle at all, no one could fault Concubine Han's compliments like this.

"Your Majesty praised it absurdly. If my mother heard it, she must be relieved." Huiyu smiled very brightly.

Everyone was silent again, watching Concubine Han and Concubine Jing going back and forth, why did they feel uncomfortable.

Since Concubine Jing always listens to Prince Jing, there is nothing to say about Yue Shuiqing's affairs. After all, even Concubine Jing is very virtuous in expressing that she wants to listen to her prince, so who can make decisions for Prince Jing?In other words, who still has the guts to break ground on Prince Jing's head now? The current Prince Jing is not the person who could step on anyone back then.

"The Empress is here!"

Today's greetings have just kicked off, but the smoke is already filled, and each has its own winners and losers.

After coming out of the palace, Xia Bingyu didn't go back directly to Prince Ning's Mansion, but the carriage turned a corner and went to Duke Xinguo's Mansion.

Before Xin Guogong came back, Mrs. Xin Guogong was really surprised when she heard that her daughter was back, and hurried out to greet her, "Why did you come here at this time, and didn't let you know in advance, does the prince know?"

Xia Bingyu looked at her mother, couldn't bring a smile to her face, and shook her head slightly, "I didn't tell my cousin, I'll just stay for a while and leave right away. Is brother at home? If he is, mother will take him away." Come here, I have something to ask him."

Mrs. Xin Guogong looked at her daughter's expression, and heard that her daughter wanted to see her son, she remembered what happened when she went back to Fengyuan last time. , Children are debts.After thinking about it, I decided to ask someone to call my son, and then I accompanied my daughter into the house and waited.

The two sat down separately, Mrs. Xin Guogong looked at her daughter and hesitated to speak.

Xia Bingyu looked at her mother and said, "There is nothing you can't say to me. I understand that my mother has her own difficulties about what happened last time."

Mrs. Xin Guogong breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that her daughter understood her, she couldn't help complaining: "I've already trained your brother on this matter, but you also know your sister-in-law's temper. Yes, we can't do too much, and the Duke's Mansion is still watching. I know you have been wronged, don't worry, mother will always vent your anger for you. "

Xia Bingyu's eyes turned red when she heard this, and the grievances accumulated in her heart burst out, "It's okay for others, after all, Chu Jing is my direct sister-in-law, and she ran to Le Fengyuan. Look at my jokes. She knows how difficult my situation is now, she just wished that I would be trampled under her feet, and she didn't think about what would be good for her if I fell down. "

"Originally we agreed to go to Prince Ning's Mansion together, but the next morning, we said that we were a little uncomfortable and we had to go one step later. I was thinking of you so I agreed to her. Who knew that she would run away without telling me? Garden." Mrs. Xin Guogong was also a little helpless, Chu Jing was her sister-in-law's daughter after all, and there were some things she couldn't do.Duke Xin is just such a direct sister who married Duke Ling, and Chu Jing is her first daughter, so she is very precious.Moreover, in the audition, her daughter was sorry for my sister-in-law's daughter, and she was at fault for the bad debt. Every time her son and daughter-in-law got into a fight, my sister-in-law would come to her brother and cry, even bringing her along. , she was really bored.

Xia Bingyu naturally knew about the involvement, but now she was fed up with the ridicule from her sisters-in-law, and she didn't want to see the wives all over the capital look at her jokes. If this matter can't be suppressed, she How to hold your head up in the future.Thinking of this, she said to her mother: "No matter what, my sister-in-law will restrain herself in front of outsiders in the future. You know that King Jing and his cousin are having a lot of trouble now. If our own backyard doesn't stop, we'll start the fight before others beat us." fall down."

"I will tell your father, but your father has a good relationship with your aunt, Sulai, and your aunt is from the mansion of Duke Ling, so you know that some things are difficult to handle." Mrs. Xin rubbed her forehead and sighed. However, the problem of sister-in-law is also a big problem, especially when sister-in-law and sister-in-law are of equal status.

"It's not difficult at all, I just need my mother and brother to cooperate with me." Xia Bingyu's voice slowly sank. Since Chu Jing is not on the road, she will force her to be on the road. If this is not enough, then this sister-in-law Just a decoration, don't bother her, otherwise she won't be lenient even if it's her aunt's daughter.

"What do you want to do?" Mrs. Xin Guogong looked at her daughter, and was taken aback by the cruelty in her eyes. She felt her heart beating violently, and cold sweat broke out on her hands.

"Why isn't brother here?" Xia Bingyu didn't notice her mother's strangeness, and turned her eyes to the door.

As soon as the words fell, Xia Shanchang opened the curtain and strode in. When he saw the girl, he said, "What are you looking for me in such a hurry, I'm about to go out."

Xia Bingyu looked at her brother with a smile, "Brother, sit down, I have something important to tell you."

Xia Shanchang was still very protective of his sister. Hearing this, he sat beside his mother, looked at her and said, "You came back without making a sound, and you jumped so suddenly."

Mrs. Xin Guogong patted her son, "Your sister has business with you, so stop talking nonsense."

Xia Shanchang snorted, "Okay, tell me what you want me to do."

"Brother." Xia Bingyu looked at her brother and yelled, "You have loved me the most since I was a child. No matter what I want, you will find me. You have been beaten by your father several times."

Hearing his sister talking about this, Xia Shanchang laughed, "I'm just a direct sister like you, I don't love you or anyone else."

"Then if you were asked to choose between my sister-in-law and me, who would you choose?" Xia Bingyu stared at her brother intently, and her breathing slowed down.

Xia Shan didn't react for a long time, and looked at Xia Bingyu after a while and said, "You...what do you mean?"

"That's what you mean, brother, you clearly understand." Xia Bingyu frowned.

Xia Shan fell silent for a long time.

Xia Bingyu looked at him and knew that his brother must be hesitant. After all, although Chu Jing had a bad temper, her aunt treated him well. It was because of her aunt's sake that Chu Jing had been tossing about in the past few years. His brother could bear it. Endure it, Xia Bingyu is clear about this.However, if Chu Jing continues to toss about like this, Xia Bingyu will definitely disagree. In the future, King Ning still has a long way to go. It won't work if Jing is suppressed, so she must not be soft this time. Seeing that Prince Jing is getting stronger and stronger, if they can't hold together, it will only get worse.

She has always been a calm person, she can endure Dong Wan's entry into Prince Ning's Mansion, and she can endure Chu Jing's tossing in the past few years, but when she is unwilling to endure, no one can stand in her way, no one can.

Xia Shanchang didn't like Chu Jing at all, and he married her because they were sorry for her by the Xinguo government, and because of his aunt.In fact, this multiple-choice question is very easy to choose. Between the younger sister and Chu Jing, he will definitely choose the younger sister.But if he had to choose between Prince Ning's Mansion, Duke Xinguo's Mansion and Duke Linguo's Mansion, he hesitated.

"What do you want me to do?" Xia Shanchang finally asked, and looked at his mother after speaking.

Mrs. Xin Guogong shook her head slightly, she didn't know what her daughter was going to do, the mother and son looked at Xia Bingyu together and waited for her to speak.

Xia Bingyu sighed softly, "Mother, brother, Prince Jing is getting more and more powerful, you can all see it. But our own house is in a mess, if this continues, Prince Jing won't need to do it himself, we will finish the trouble ourselves. The only thing is that I feel sorry for my sister-in-law, but in a place like the palace, I can't protect myself when things like the draft are at the head of the line. Do you think my sister-in-law won't use me to frame me? It's just that I took the first step to preemptive strikes. In recent years, no matter what No matter how much she tosses, whether it's my brother, me, or my mother, our family will let her go, let her go, but if this continues, let her go on, what consequences will happen, I don't say you can tell I know. I know, my brother won’t divorce his wife, even for the sake of my aunt, I can’t do it, my mother won’t agree to it, and I don’t want to see it come to this. So in the worst case We need to stop it before it happens."

What's the worst?If Chu Jing continues to make trouble like this regardless of the severity, sooner or later the Xinguo Mansion will be seen as a joke. The more she tosses, the conflict between the Xinguo Mansion and the Dinguo Mansion will become deeper and deeper. When it is relieved, the two may really fall apart.

"Divorcing a wife is absolutely impossible. Our family can't afford to lose this person." Mrs. Xin Guogong looked at her daughter and said, "But your sister-in-law did a little too much, but there are some things that your aunt is around, so I just say you Daddy won't listen either."

Xia Shanchang seemed to have thought of something, so he looked at the girl and said, "You don't need to go around in circles, just tell me what you want to do." Xin Guogong's mansion and Ning Wang's mansion are tied to the same boat, and both will prosper, and both will suffer. King Ning has that blessing, and when the girl sits in that honorable position, even the aunt's family will not dare to do anything.There might be momentary annoyance now, but he didn't think the girl would really go too far.

"Brother, you must be the eldest son."

The room suddenly fell silent, Mrs. Xin Guogong looked at her daughter in surprise and forgot what to say for a while.

Xia Shanchang saw the girl's brows were tightly frowned, and her breath was slightly unsteady, and soon he understood what her sister meant, "Do you want to use the eldest son to suppress your sister-in-law?"
