Chapter 149
When King Zhuhua Heping arrived at the Prince's Mansion in Hengyang, he found that there were quite a few people who came, but they were all unnamed people, perhaps they were going for a few important people who would appear at the banquet.King Zhuhua Heping was naturally not such a character, as he looked at them and didn't come around to say hello.The venue for the banquet was separate for men and women. Before Zhuhua entered, King Ping whispered in her ear: "I will wait for you outside."

Zhuhua nodded, she didn't have the nerve to look up at him, maybe she was thinking too much, she felt that she was being teased.King Ping didn't wait for her answer, smiled and walked away reluctantly.Zhuhua was silent for a while, and did not cheer up until the banquet hall.

After seeing the ceremony, Princess Hengyang took Zhuhua's hand affectionately and said, "Good boy, we will be a family soon. Aunt Huang has nothing to show for it, let's play with this bracelet."

Princess Hengyang took off a bracelet and put it on Zhuhua's hand, Zhuhua pushed it a few times and thanked her for accepting it.It's just that she has always been a somewhat suspicious person, always suspicious of others' excessive kindness, and she took off the bracelet when she was in a place where no one was around.The material of this bracelet is different from the ones she has seen before, but the workmanship is exquisite, it can be seen that it is a good thing, Zhuhua thought about it but still didn't dare to wear it, so she put the bracelet in the handkerchief for Qiu Chu to collect.After watching a few Gongdou dramas with my mother, she always has to learn to be more mindful.

"Miss, won't the Eldest Princess be angry when she finds out?" Qiu Chu asked worriedly.

"If you are angry, you will be angry. We are just trying to save face, and we just pretend to be in front of outsiders. Who knows what the relationship is at the bottom, and I think she knows that our relationship will not get better. I won't Taking risks for face!" Zhuhua said nonchalantly.

It happened that she saw Xie Zhenyan head on, so she went up to say hello to her, and even got acquainted with a few young ladies beside her.Xie Zhenyan found a gap, pulled her over and said, "Princess Hengyang loves face the most, but I'm afraid she will be annoyed in the future. In fact, it's enough to let His Royal Highness Prince Ping come over to show his face, and there is no need for both of them to come over."

"The little girl and His Highness are just engaged. This is also the first time Princess Hengyang has posted a post, so I naturally have to come over."

Xie Zhenyan nodded when she heard the words, and said: "I don't see you coming out these days, and I want my sister to meet my future cousin, but unfortunately she can't come today because of something."

"Mrs. Shizi is used to making fun of people. If that's the case, my daughter won't go."

"Don't blame me, you are a bold one, but you can't hide it from others."

The two chatted and laughed for a while, Xie Zhenyan saw an acquaintance in front of her, and said goodbye to her.Zhuhua recognized that she was a pestering wife, and it was rare for Xie Zhenyan to deal with it patiently.After all, in a stranger's garden, she didn't dare to go to a remote place, so she found an inconspicuous place close to the crowd and sat down.After sitting for a while, she heard a familiar voice not far away.

"...I don't know where she went."

Hey, don't let her run into something, Zhuhua deliberately said to Qiuchu with the instinct of avoiding danger: "The dress of Mrs. Shizi just now is really beautiful."

"Yes." Qiu Chu also deliberately responded loudly.

But she didn't want to hear a few low-key and uncontrollable smiles as soon as the two of them finished talking, Zhuhua thought with black lines, she might have hit the gun herself.Standing up, she tried her best to calmly look at the strange Jiang Sanniang who was walking towards her.

Jiang Sanniang's life has not been easy in recent years. She is one year older than Zhuhua. Not long after Xu Qingqing was married, she also got engaged. It is said that she is the eldest son of a Taiyuan family.The one who was engaged died of illness less than a year after the engagement. After all, Jiang Sanniang had a marriage contract with him, so she had to keep filial piety for him for half a year.It's just that after half a year, her marriage has become even more difficult.I don't know since when, Chang'an has faintly spread the ominousness of Jiang's daughter, and some people say that it is because of Concubine Jiang who died in the palace.Whether it is true or not, there are indeed not many people who dare to marry Jiang's daughter. Jiang Sanniang saw each other for another year, and finally had to settle for a civil servant whose family was not obvious.

This is already a marriage. It is too humiliating for her dignified Miss Houfu to marry such a family. If she had known that, she should have firmly grasped the Xihai County King.Not long after the engagement, she found out that the civil official had an eldest son in his hometown, and she was not soft-hearted, so she immediately sent someone to remove the eldest son and his biological mother.It's just that for some reason, the person who sent them missed, and the mother and son went to Beijing to tell the matter to Jiang Sanniang's betrothed family.After arguing for a while, the two sides finally broke off the engagement silently.

Jiang Sanniang is now eighteen, and her marriage has not yet been settled.She had previously thought that if it really didn't work, she would marry Ping Wang at worst. Anyway, Ping Wang would not be able to succeed to the throne. This would not hinder Wu Xiangxiang's eyes.She even secretly looked up King Ping's birth date, and secretly went to the eminent monk to have a reunion, but the eminent monk did not say that the two would be in harmony.It's a pity that she hasn't mentioned this matter to her family, yet Zhuhua has made a marriage agreement with King Ping.This wild girl in Cheng's mansion dared to come to grab a man with her. The last time her marriage with Xihai County King failed was because of Cheng Sanniang's fault, and Fang Jiulang. If Cheng Sanniang was not an eyesore, how could Fang Jiulang reject the Hou's mansion Proposal.In terms of appearance and talent, she couldn't compare to Cheng Sanniang, she must have used Wu Xiangxiang's power to do something, Jiang Sanniang thought so, and planned to show Zhuhua a little color.

Although the visitor was not kind, both sides saluted politely.

"Sister Cheng is really refreshed on happy occasions, she looks much better than before, she doesn't look like someone who just got sick." Jiang Sanniang said softly.

"Thanks to my sister." Zhuhua responded, she knew about Jiang Sanniang's recent situation, and also knew that she and Princess Hengyang's daughter-in-law were cousins ​​who often went to Princess Hengyang's mansion.

Although Concubine Peng didn't like his son, he thought his daughter-in-law was a good one, with a good temper and good housekeeping.It's just that Princess Hengyang doesn't like this overly capable daughter-in-law very much, and Mr. Peng treats her in the same way. Later, something happened to her during her pregnancy, and she was so angry that she gave birth prematurely.Now her body is getting worse day by day, and for this reason, Jiang Sanniang always comes to Hengyang Prince's Mansion, and gets to know everyone in the mansion well.Zhuhua guesses that Jiang Sanniang was the one who told Princess Hengyang about the shop.

Seeing Zhuhua's alienated attitude, Jiang Sanniang's smile also turned cold, "Sister, why should I be humble. We still want to ask my sister for advice. I don't know how my sister found a good husband."

"My sister was joking, how dare my younger sister talk about how to find a good husband in front of the Jiang family sister. Don't worry about my sister. With her talent and appearance, maybe a good marriage is just around the corner."

Jiang Sanniang laughed dryly, and said, "Borrow my sister's auspicious words. Today's spring is just right, why don't we go for a walk."

When Zhuhua heard this, she showed a troubled expression, and said: "Sister also knows that I am weak, and now that the illness has just recovered, it is better to sit here where there is no wind, and I will not go there."

"What's the point of sitting dry? Sister, let's get up and take a walk. Could it be that the scenery of the Princess Hengyang's mansion is not as good as that of the Marquis of Zhongguo's mansion?"

"Especially the fish pond in the garden." A woman beside him chimed in.

Ever since the news about Sun's cultivation of fish and lotus roots in Zhongguohou's mansion got out, the children of Beijing's official family made a lot of jokes.People in the Cheng family don't care about this, even Cheng Dashan doesn't think much after hearing it, anyway, he can only see that the fish that can't be eaten and the fish that can be eaten are all fish, how can it make people laugh if they raise edible fish? Do you think edible fish looks better than non-edible fish?It must be that other people's homes don't have such a big fish pond to say these sour words.

Zhuhua is not afraid of others mentioning this matter, she said with a smile: "The scenery of Princess Hengyang's mansion is naturally good, and the place is not small, I can't go to every place. If my sister really likes it, just go on her own, So as not to disappoint the spring."

Jiang Sanniang didn't expect that she would not be able to persuade her so much, since they were very easy to talk to when they met before.After a short pause, she said, "That way, I won't disturb my sister."

Zhuhua nodded, and was relieved when Jiang Sanniang led the people away. After sitting for a while, she suddenly came back to her senses and asked Qiuchu: "Should we go back to the banquet hall later? ?”

Qiu Chu thought it was true at first, and couldn't help asking: "Miss, what should I do?"

Zhuhua stood up, looked around, and fixed her eyes on the rockery nearby.

When Qiu Chu saw it, he couldn't help but put on a bitter face, "Miss, you don't mean to crawl over, do you?"

"What are you thinking about? Miss Ben's clothes are very valuable today. Wouldn't it be ruined if she climbed the rocky mountain once?" She said with a straight face, thought for a while, and finally walked to the road that Jiang Sanniang left.

Zhuhua walked slowly, since all the ladies who came to visit the garden had to walk this way to get back to the banquet hall, then she could go with the others.She didn't recognize most of the ladies who came today, but there were always a few familiar ones, such as Xie Zhenyan, it would be the safest if she could go back with her.It's a pity that she didn't find anyone she wanted to wait for after walking for a while, and there weren't even many other girls who passed by, as if everyone had already gone back, and she was the only one left behind.

Could it be that she accidentally sat in the garden for too long?Zhuhua thought to herself, and couldn't help speeding up her pace.Just as she was thinking about it, she saw many young ladies standing by the lake in front of her feeding the fish, and exclaiming from time to time. Zhuhua was not very interested in ornamental fish. Her husband used to keep a tank of tropical fish and breed small fish at home. After that, I feel that the koi in this kind of pond are a bit dull, not as agile as tropical fish.It's just that she didn't go, but a lady who hurried over from behind bumped into her.

"Miss, are you okay? I'm sorry, I left in a hurry."

The person who bumped into her was a young lady in pink clothes, Zhuhua saw that she was about thirteen or fourteen years old, she was charming, she looked shy because she bumped into someone, but from the corner of her eyes, she still looked towards the lake from time to time.

"It's okay." Zhuhua replied with a smile, and didn't intend to pursue it with her.

I don't know if she was very kind, the little girl immediately took Zhuhua's hand affectionately and said, "Sister is also going to see the fish, shall we go together?"

"No, I won't go."

"Sister, let's go together." As she spoke, she enthusiastically pulled Zhuhua to the edge of the lake, pointing to a large group of fish gathering on the shore and saying, "Sister, look quickly, there are so many fish."

"Yes, there are a lot of fish." Seeing that my mass phobia came out, Zhuhua's mind somehow popped up the picture of the koi showing a ferocious expression and yelling at the human beings to feed me.

With a smile, Zhuhua was just recovering when she felt someone bumped into her hard.After all, she has practiced martial arts, and she was still one step away from the lake. Before jumping to the water, she grabbed the person who pushed her with a kick of her heels, and then used her strength to drag her into the water. Then he barely stood firm on the shore, and immediately took a few steps back in fear, looking at the girl in pink who fell into the water.

Sure enough, it's a game. Does anyone know that she is the most soft-hearted towards pink and tender girls, and that's why she hired such a person to harm her?Zhuhua thought to herself, although it's spring now, the lake is freezing cold, if it falls, it's no joke.The young girl who was watching the fish on the bank was screaming in panic when she saw someone falling into the water, and Zhuhua looked at the girl who was constantly thumping in the lake, but she didn't have the kindness to help. Anyway, after a while, the maid from the mansion also came.

"Cheng Sanniang, how could you be so vicious and push Shen Shisanniang into the water." Jiang Sanniang appeared out of nowhere and asked Zhuhua with a righteous face.

When the others heard the words, they all looked at Zhuhua with resentment.

Zhuhua didn't want to shirk, as long as Shen Shisanniang didn't die, the dirty water would definitely fall on her, and Shen Shisanniang who fell into the water pushed her first, and no one else saw it, and they wouldn't say it. Someone believed.Turning her eyes slightly, Zhuhua showed a surprised expression.

"Did I push it? I thought it was a female ghost named Jiuniang."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was also taken aback.

Zhuhua didn't care about them, and said with a frightened expression: "Since I came back from Prince Ping's mansion that day (actually I haven't been there), I often dream of a female ghost named Jiu Niang at night, always coming to ask me for help. I How can a weak woman help me, I just ignored it. But just now, in this place..."

Zhuhua raised her voice, stepped forward and pointed to where Jiang Sanniang was standing, and Jiang Sanniang took a step back in fright, "There is a female ghost in white clothes who suddenly said, since I won't help her, let me accompany her. Fortunately I wear a newly requested peace talisman..."

As she said that, she really took out a safety talisman, which was asked by Mrs. Sun for her to carry for peace of mind, but the corner of the talisman was missing, because she accidentally splashed it with oil when she first received it and rubbed it hard. Scuffed.

"Ah, the peace talisman is missing a corner, could it be that it has exhausted its spiritual power?" She pretended to be panicked.

"Don't get involved in the matter of gods and ghosts, it was obviously you who pushed Shen Shisanniang into the water."

"I remember that it was a female ghost who wanted to push me into the water, but I pushed her away with a wave of my hand, and bumped into Shen Shisanniang next to me. I met Shisanniang for the first time today. There is no hatred, why should I push her into the water for no reason."

"Because she is Shen Jiuniang's younger sister!"

"Shen Jiuniang? Jiuniang?" Zhuhua thought of the name thoughtfully, but she thought, sure enough, Shen Shisanniang and Shen Jiuniang belonged to the same family, and she was really mistaken.But Shen Shisanniang came to ask her to trouble her for what to do, Shen Jiuniang was not killed by her, she has the ability to find King Ping.She snorted coldly in her heart, and looked at everyone seriously, "Could it be that Shen Jiuniang was lonely in the ground and wanted to pull her back, but after being blocked by me, she found her sister, and took advantage of the opportunity to pull her sister down?"

As she said that, she moved away from the lake in fear, and the other ladies jumped away one after another when they saw this, and Jiang Sanniang was the closest to the water by the lake.Even though she knew that Zhuhua was making it up, she couldn't help but move her position.

At this time, Shen Shisanniang had already been dragged ashore by the servant woman, and her mother also rushed over after hearing the news. Knowing that it was Zhuhua who pushed her into the water, she went forward and wanted to argue with Zhuhua, and immediately stopped Zhuhua at the beginning of autumn. In front of her, lest she rush over.
