Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 84 and 笄 (2)

  Lu Mingyu had a lot of dealings with Princess Hui'an in her previous life.

  Princess Hui'an is irritable and irritable, with an unruly temperament, and turns her face at every turn.

  The princes have to respect this eldest sister. With the support of the emperor, Princess Hui'an's confidence is of course very solid. It is common to be mean and make things difficult for brothers and sisters.

  The eldest prince concubine Liang has a gentle temperament and never competes with Princess Hui'an. The second concubine, Meng Yunluo, wanted to compete with Princess Hui'an, but her mother-in-law and her husband were not on her side, so she could not support herself alone. The fourth prince concubine Zhao Yu was even more useless.

   Only Lu Mingyu never gave in.

   Princess Hui'an made things difficult and pungent, and she was as hot as fire.

   Princess Hui'an is mean and tough, her tongue is like a sword.

   In the beginning, she had to suffer some losses.

   Princess Hui'an is powerful and has a convenient status. When a married aunt goes back to her parents' home, she always has some privilege over others. No matter how powerful she is, she can't beat Princess Hui'an.

   Later, the second prince died on the battlefield, Li Hao was established as the prince, and she became the prince concubine. Queen Qiao was seriously ill, Emperor Yongjia passed away, Princess Hui'an had no support from her brother, mother and father, just like a tiger whose teeth had been pulled out.

   Later, Queen Qiao "died" in the harem. Su Zhaorong became the Empress Dowager Su, and Princess Hui'an's hard days came.

   Empress Dowager Su, who has been neglected for many years and wronged, once gained power with insidious and sinister methods. Queen Qiao, Concubine Meng Guifei, Concubine Qin, died one by one in the palace.

  Princess Hui'an didn't die, but she was sent to Jingxin Nunnery to eat fast and chanting Buddha because of "disrespecting the Queen Mother" and "speaking evil words". He never showed his face in public again.

  …

   "Mingyu is very grateful for Her Royal Highness's visit to Lu Mansion." Lu Mingyu saluted, neither humble nor arrogant.

  The crowd also saluted along with them.

Princess Hui'an's eyes swept away and fell on Lu Mingyu's face, with a light tone: "Miss Lu, don't be too polite, get up!" After a pause, she added: "Today, Miss Lu and her sister-in-law, the mother specially asked me to come to watch the ceremony, Let me bring congratulations here."

  A palace maid stepped forward and presented two brocade boxes respectfully.

  Lu Mingyu took the brocade box and opened it in front of everyone.

   When the first brocade box was opened, it turned out to be a night pearl. That night pearl was the size of a pigeon's egg. At a glance, it is a treasure of priceless value.

   In the second brocade box, there is a jade Ruyi. Glittering faint green, it is also not ordinary.

  People: "..."

   Among the famous ladies in the capital, who has received such a generous gift from Queen Qiao at the wedding ceremony?

   Last year, Qiao Wan was rewarded with some fine silk and a set of exquisite jewelry. Far less valuable than today's rewards.

   The subtlety contained in this, as long as you are not a fool, you can think of one or two.

   Everyone's eyes turned to Lu Mingyu, and then another to Qiao Wan.

  Lu Mingyu looked as usual, smiled and thanked the Queen for her grace, and ordered the maid to put away the two brocade boxes.

   And Qiao Wan, who was standing by the side, had a smile on the corner of her mouth, her eyes full of shock.

  What, what's going on?

  Lu Mingyu's wedding ceremony, why did Queen Qiao give such a generous gift? Princess Hui'an was also ordered to watch the ceremony in person! A shocking conjecture suddenly jumped into my mind.

  Qiao Wan's pretty face turned pale, her right hand tightly clutching her dress.

   Princess Hui'an's gaze swept across Qiao Wan's suddenly pale face, and she felt a little regretful in her heart.

   It would be great for the second brother to marry Qiao Wan's cousin! The cousins ​​and sisters of the direct relatives are familiar with each other, and their affection is far better than others. It is a happy event of kissing.

   The second brother is determined to marry this rude and scary Lu Mingyu!

   What is even more irritating is that the mother and the queen can't beat the second brother, but she actually helps out with advice and plans. Today was also urged by her mother again and again, and she reluctantly came to the Lu family.

   This marriage, the father has already nodded, and there is no reason to change it.

   Poor cousin Qiao Wan is destined to be a disappointment.

   Princess Hui'an thought so, and she couldn't help but feel a little more anger at Lu Mingyu. She glanced at Lu Mingyu, her voice was cold: "The wedding ceremony has not yet started, I will wait in the inner hall. Miss Lu Si should go back to the room and stay first!"

   This is clearly not going to enter Lu Mingyu's boudoir.

  Shen Lan knew something and could not help frowning secretly.

  The second prince is gentle and good-natured, but this Princess Hui'an is a bit too much. Come here, but deliberately put on airs. Didn't he tell everyone in public that he didn't like Lu Mingyu?

  Lu Mingyu didn't see the slightest bit of embarrassment, she responded lightly, and asked Qiyun to ask her eldest sister, Lu Mingfang, to come over.

   When Lu Mingfang got the news, he hurried over and greeted Princess Hui'an to the inner hall with a smile.

  Princess Hui'an was born tall, so she held her head high, turned around and left without swiping the corners of her eyes.

   fully shows what "defiant" means.

  Lu Mingyu returned to the boudoir with a calm expression. Everyone sat for a while, then went to the inner hall together. Soon, only Lu Mingyu, Shen Lan and others were in the boudoir.

   Zhao Yu opened her mouth first to break the silence: "Lu Si, why did the Empress suddenly reward you with such a treasure?"

  Lu Mingyu's face was magnanimous: "I don't know either. Please come to the palace another day, and ask the Queen for me how?"

   Zhao Yu: "..."

   Really think she is stupid!

  Zhao Yu rolled her eyes secretly, and looked at Qiao Wan again: "Sister Qiao, Niangniang is your own aunt. You often go to the palace to greet Niangniang. You should know what Niangniang is thinking!"

Qiao Wan's hands trembled slightly, but her face was much calmer, and she replied with a smile: "Sister Zhao is really asking the wrong person. I haven't entered the palace for a few days to greet me. Besides, the Queen's concubine's heart, how could you and I be able to do it? random guessing."

   As expected of the well-bred daughter of the Qiao family, she was so shocked and sad, and she didn't make a fool of yourself.

  Lu Mingyu glanced at Qiao Wan and sighed inwardly.

   I didn't mean to rob your sweetheart.

   In fact, even without me, you wouldn't be able to marry the second prince.

   Qiao Wan also raised her eyes and met Lu Mingyu's. Lu Mingyu's eyes were a little complicated, and there was even a hint of guilt.

   This look made Qiao Wan's heart tremble again.

  The girls here are not stupid. At this time, they are all pretending to be confused.

  Jin Can'er didn't know what to think, a hint of shyness and joy flashed in her eyes.

   Meng Yunluo's heart was filled with strong sourness.

   After the palace banquet that day, she entered the palace to greet her and met her aunt, Concubine Meng Gui. Concubine Meng Gui made a few meaningful hints. She thought... that she would be the second prince concubine.

  The second prince is a descended prince, and his status is noble, so there is no need to elaborate. Gentle, personable, and handsome as jade. For such a handsome young man, she secretly thought of marrying, and it was not something she was ashamed to say.

  I never expected that she would wait and wait, and she didn't wait for the following.

   Queen Qiao's daughter-in-law was actually Lu Mingyu!
