Xiao Shun and Ren Yaohua are both vigorous and resolute characters, so it is very profitable for both parties to prepare for marriage after Xiangqin is married.

Xiao Shun has a formal official position in the Yanbei Royal Mansion. Xiangqin used to marry a high-level marriage. The marriage was more serious than the average maid. Nevertheless, Ren Yaohua still set the wedding date in October. Xiangqin was very sad about this. For a while, she thought that her master was eager to sweep her out, until Mulberry persuaded her that the master let her marry earlier to take care of the second lady who was pregnant, and Xiangqian was happy again.

Although Ren Yaohua hated the maid Xiangqin, he was not at all ambiguous when she gave her a dowry. In addition, whether it was because of his own feelings or because of Xiao Jingxi’s reuse of Xiao Shun, Ren Yaoqi also A lot of makeup was added to parsley, so that parsley, the first maid to marry, was not inferior to the ladies of ordinary wealthy families, and it really envied many people.

At the same time, the Yun family and Zhao Yingqiu are busy with the wedding. After Zhao Yingqiu’s wedding date is set, they rarely go out. Although the Zhao family has prepared a generous dowry for her, Zhao Yingqiu still insists on embroidering her wedding dress and being happy to come in. Shoes and socks dedicated to my aunt.

Yan Ningshuang and Zhao Yingqiu have a good relationship. When they were in Beijing, they had handkerchiefs. For a while, Yan Ningshuang was a little depressed, so he often went to visit Zhao Yingqiu in other courtyards, and they talked together to relieve their boredom.

That afternoon, Yan Ningshuang went out after lunch and went to the other courtyard to talk to Zhao Yingqiu. Zhao Yingqiu was taking two big maids to do needlework. Zhao Yingqiu was also ingenious. The pair of mandarin ducks playing in the water on the hikerchief was caught by her. Embroidery is vivid.

Yan Ningshuang sat aside and watched, suddenly said, "Yingqiu, why did you come to Yanbei?"

The needle and thread in Zhao Yingqiu's hand paused slightly, then raised his head and glanced at Yan Ningshuang, then smiled: "This is what the queen mother meant, can I still resist the decree?"

Yan Ningshuang was immersed in her thoughts. Hearing the words was only a sorrowful saying: "At the beginning, the queen mother made an order to select celebrities and ladies to come to Yanbei, and all the family reports were the concubines who were not favored at home. Or the concubines who lost their mother's support Girl, no one who is really pampered is willing to come. Only I... only I am kneeling in front of the empress dowager and begging for three days before she agrees. I come to Yanbei for a reason I must come, but why are you Do you want to come? You are still favored at home, and the empress dowager is willing to love you. If you stay in Beijing, you will definitely get a good marriage. When the time comes, the Li family will decide for you, and your husband will not dare to treat you badly. you."

Zhao Yingqiu was silent for a moment, then smiled slightly and looked up and said: "I grew up in Beijing, and the farthest place I have been to is Zhaode Temple, which is 80 miles away from Beijing, so I have longed for Yanbei since I was a child. What? Isn't it good for me to come to Yanbei? I can still be your company."

Yan Ningshuang was in a bad mood and didn't notice Zhao Yingqiu's deliberate ambiguity about her question. He just said to himself: "I'm just a pity for you. I heard that the eldest son of the Yun family has been reluctant to get married because he has a lover. Now. If you marry, aren't you afraid that they can only have different dreams in the same bed?" Yan Ningshuang said as she thought of her marriage, a trace of pain appeared in her eyes.

Zhao Yingqiu smiled, lowered his head to continue threading the needle and thread, holding the needle and thread still firmly: "It's too early to think about this now? This is something for the future."

Yan Ningshuang looked at Zhao Yingqiu and sighed. There is a sense of grief connected with fate.

Zhao Yingqiu said suddenly, "By the way, Yanbei will be lively again in a while, right? I heard the people at the head talk that the imperial court and the Liao state are about to reopen border trade. Presumably there will be fewer wars."

Yan Ningshuang didn't know what she thought of, and frowned, "It's too early to make a conclusion."

Zhao Yingqiu looked up at Yan Ningshuang with some surprise: "What?"

Yan Ningshuang shook his head and refused to talk more.

Zhao Yingqiu smiled and didn't care. He just said unintentionally: "I heard that when the court and the Liao State sign the letter of credence, someone from the Yanbei Palace will also be there."

Yan Ningshuang's eyelids twitched, "Who is going to Yanbei Palace?"

Zhao Yingqiu thought for a while. He casually said: "I don't know, but I guess it should be the second son of Xiao, right? The prince fought with the people of Liao every year. I heard that the Liao people wanted to kill the prince and hurry up. This kind of occasion is the most suitable for the second son of Xiao to come forward."

Yan Ningshuang was startled when she heard the words, and almost jumped up: "No! He can't go!"

Zhao Yingqiu glanced at Yan Ningshuang strangely: "Why can't you? If Xiao Er Gongzi doesn't go, who else can go to Yanbei Palace?"

Yan Ningshuang's face turned pale, but she couldn't say anything.

Zhao Yingqiu did not speak when she saw her. So he lowered his head to embroider her mandarin duck.

Wherever Yan Ningshuang was sitting, she was uneasy. I don’t know how long she had passed. She suddenly stood up, scared Zhao Yingqiu into her finger with a needle, and a tiny blood bead was printed on the half-embroidered one. Hi Pa.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhao Yingqiu asked worriedly.

Yan Ningshuang shook her head: "I suddenly remembered something else. I'll go back first, and see you next time." After saying this, she hurriedly left without waiting for Zhao Yingqiu to speak.

Zhao Yingqiu watched her back disappear into the room, smiled slightly, lowered her head and embroidered an eye on the blood stain just now, blood-red mandarin duck eyes.

After Yan Ningshuang returned from the other courtyard, she went straight to the Zhaoning Hall. This time she was stopped outside the hall without surprise.

"I have important things to see your young wife." Yan Ningshuang said anxiously.

The gatekeeper said with a respectful face: "Our young lady is resting, and the third lady, you should come back another day."

"I have to see Ren Yaoqi if I have an urgent matter! I will regret if she doesn't see her!" Yan Ningshuang said in a heavy tone.

The gatekeeper woman apologized to apologize, but she refused to let Yan Ningshuang in.

Yan Ningshuang gritted her teeth and turned around to leave, but when the gatekeeper turned around, she suddenly turned back and jumped over the two gatekeepers and rushed in.

The gatekeeper was stunned, and then immediately stepped forward to stop: "Mrs. Sanshao!"

These backdoor women outside Zhaoning Temple all had one or two brushes, so they quickly stopped Yan Ningshuang. Just as the two sides were in a stalemate, Yan Ningshuang looked up and saw a young woman dressed as a woman coming out of it, and then immediately recognized that this was Ren Yaoqi’s confidant. The last time she looked for Ren Yaoqi, this woman also stayed. There was no evasion in the hall.

"Wait, go and report to Ren Yaoqi for me, I have important things to tell her." Yan Ningshuang hurriedly said.

The young woman was the manager of Zhaoning Temple, and she looked at Yan Ningshuang and didn't move.

Yan Ningshuang looked around, and then quickly said: "I am willing to tell her the last time I asked your young wife, and there is no need for her to promise me any conditions. Go and report to me, and she will be willing. See me."

Apple looked at her in silence for a while, as if thinking about it, and then said: "Wait a moment." Then he turned around and went in again.

Ren Yaoqi was very helpless when he heard that Yan Ningshuang was here again, but after listening to Apple's report, Ren Yaoqi thought for a while and let Apple go and Yan Ningshuang stayed in.

When Yan Ningshuang came in, she was a little out of breath, and sweat broke out on her forehead.

Ren Yaoqi greeted people to serve her tea, but was interrupted by Yan Ningshuang: "I know you don't like me, and I don't like you either. I am not here as a guest today, I am here for Xiao Lang."

Ren Yaoqi was not annoyed when he heard the words, and asked the little maid serving tea to retreat first, leaving only the two maidservants Apple and Leshan to wait, changing the cynicism from the last time, and speaking calmly: "Miss Yan has something to say but It’s okay to say."

Yan Ningshuang rushed to find Ren Yaoqi this time because she figured it out. She couldn't sit back and watch Xiao Jingxi fall into a trap. Although both Xiao Jingxi and Ren Yaoqi refused her request, she still couldn't do it. My sweetheart is cruel.

So this time, Yan Ningshuang didn't sell it, and asked straightforwardly: "It won't be long before the court will officially sign a border trade document with Liao. Do you know this?"

Ren Yaoqi thought for a while and nodded: "I heard Jing Lin mentioned it before."

Yan Ningshuang frowned: "At that time, the court will ask Yanbei Palace to send someone there. Do you know who is going to Yanbei Palace?"

Ren Yaoqi said: "What does Miss Yan want to say?"

Yan Ningshuang sighed, real worries appeared in her eyes: "I heard that it was Xiao Lang who went there. I wonder if it is true?"

Before Ren Yaoqi could answer, Yan Ningshuang continued: "In any case, Xiao Lang definitely can't go, because this trip will be very dangerous, and there may be no return."

Although Ren Yaoqi was slightly shocked when he heard the words, he still remained calm on the face: "Why did Miss Yan say this? But where did you hear something?"

Yan Ningshuang said: "The last time I came to you, this is what you wanted to talk about. This time Xiao Jingyue will try to follow along when the court and the Liao Kingdom sign the document, but he didn't have any kindness in the past, but wanted to take the opportunity to set an ambush. Killing. I wasn't sure who the person he wanted to kill was before, but now I know that the person he wants to kill is Xiao Lang."
