Rong Ming paused, and raised his eyes slightly.

From his perspective, you can see the way she laughed and her sun-drenched eyelashes. The breeze blows her, and the pear vortex on both sides of her sinks, and her smile looks very soft and sweet, innocent and childish.

This smile seemed to be very true to what she had just said, without any falsehood.

Rong Ming suppressed his irritability, and then just laughed. Even if his smile is very weak, it can still be matched with his beautiful face, it is still a bit coquettish, like a silent temptation. He lowered his voice, "If you are happy, so be it."

He really is greedy.

I want to make her look completely on him, but also want to see the smile on her face.

That being the case, there is nothing wrong with calling Hu Tang to accompany her.

But it can't be too long.

"But I heard that Madam Hu is having a headache with her marriage, isn't she?"

This time Jiang Lao was taken aback for a while.

She thought about what Rong Chen had just said, and suddenly felt that she hadn't considered it well.

Hutang came to see her every day, as if there was nothing to do.

But her elder sister Hu Li made a marriage decision last month, and Xu gave it to the second son of Zhang Yushi's family.

Hu Tang is more headstrong than Hu Li, and he refuses to listen to Mrs. Hu's arrangements, and the marriage is delayed.

She had heard Hu Tang mentioned in private that she thought about what kind of person her future husband would be, like her dad who is stationed in Saibei, who should be as tall and sturdy as her dad who is stationed in Saibei. free.

But when Hu Tang said so, she hadn't seen her interested in any of Jinling's sons. It was obvious that she was addicted to swordsmanship books every day, and wanted to go to Mobei where her father was staying.

Jiang Lao has always been lazy to spy on other people's private affairs, but he is somewhat more concerned with those who care about him.

She "na" for a moment, and her smile dimmed.

"Even if I am taking a break, there will be more or less effort after I leave the office. If you want someone to accompany you to Liyuan to listen to the opera, you can talk to me early."

Jiang Lao suddenly raised his head to look at Rong Ming.

Guangliyuan? How did he know that she went to Guangli Garden?

Rong Lu looked at her eyes that could reveal her thoughts, "A colleague has seen you in Guangli Garden."

Jiang Lao didn't doubt, but she bit her lower lip, "I came to Guangli Garden, do I want to get close to two people?"

Rong Chen's expression changed slightly, "Who?"

"Princess Xiang and her daughter Xie Xi."

Not interested in other men.

The irritability in Rong Ming's heart subsided, and he asked without hesitation, "What do you want to know?"

Jiang Lao always doesn't like to think about it in front of people he knows

Some twists and turns, simply frank and direct, "I want to take a peek, I want to find their handle, and I'll do something bad for them..."

"We can't just allow them to bully us." She blinked. "We are not allowed to bully him."

US.

Not "you".

This slight change made Rong Ming's fingers tremble slightly.

But after he watched Jiang Ruo mumble and talk, her eyes were attracted by the little novice sweeping the floor outside, and he laughed bitterly.

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional.

He followed her and spoke quietly, returning the little girl's gaze back to him, "Princess Xiang has fallen out of favor for many years, so she often goes to Liyuan to listen to dramas to relieve her boredom."

Jiang Lao turned around.

So, what Chen Congyun said to her may be true.

But even if she knew this, it was still difficult to find out from Princess Xiang and Xie Xi. Jiang Lao gradually realized what Yun Guifei had said to her that the Xu family was difficult to deal with. Caution seemed to be written in the Xu family. Something in the bones.

She has been to Guangliyuan a few times again, and discussed with the owner of Liyuan to give her a seat that is not easy to be found by others, and secretly watched Princess Xiang and Xie Xi who came to listen to the music.

They never talk to people, and even when the drama on the stage reaches the wonderful stage, the expressions on their faces are muted.

As if afraid of being seen through their minds.

…

In a blink of an eye, summer entered.

It's easy to get sleepy in summer. Jiang Lao cools off in the pavilion. This is the season when she is most likely to doze off. Listening to the sound of cicadas, hiding in the shadows under the pavilion, her eyelids are like fighting.

Was awakened by a buzzing sound close to my ears.

Jiang Lao leaned on the stone table and moved uncomfortably. The annoying sound persisted. She opened her eyes strangely, and she was shocked when she saw the mud pips moving on the table.

Looking intently, it was a cyan dragonfly whose wings were stuck in mud. It was buzzing its heavy wings on the stone table with difficulty and spinning on the table.

Jiang Lao looked at the little boy who was squatting on the edge of the table, his eyes were flush with the edge of the table, and his hands were around the table to block the dragonfly from falling. He suddenly felt helpless.

Jiang Jinxing was resting in the academy today. It was rare to have fun with fun, and he had a great time. When he caught the dragonfly, he didn't care much about his sister, but his eyes were still entangled in the dragonfly's body.

"Sister slept too much." He said, "Just now, my mother came to you and asked you to check your dowry with her. You fell asleep, and she didn't wake you up."

Jiang Laohuan's somewhat blank look in his eyes instantly sobered up.

She didn't know how the days passed.

Obviously yesterday, I felt that the divorce period had changed for a long time.

In a blink of an eye, there are only less than two months left.

Dazhao has always had a tradition of only three months before marriage and that unmarried couples are not allowed to see each other. She has not seen Rong Chen for more than a month.

"In two days, there will be a palace banquet. Sister A must not forget. Sister Tang has written an invitation to enter the palace with you." Jiang Jinxing said while teasing Dragonfly.

Jiang Lao thought about getting up, feeling a little heavy on her body, and took a deep glance at her. With a thin blanket draped over her shoulders, Jiang Lao stretched out her hands together, "Is this my mother covered it for me?"

Jiang Jinxing squeezed the dragonfly with his hand, then raised his eyes to look at Jiang Nao, pouting a little dissatisfiedly, "It's me."

Jiang Lao was surprised.

It was the first time she had this honor to be taken care of by the little guy.

She smiled and asked, "Who taught you to do this?"

Even though she asked, she was waiting for the little guy to say that no one taught him. Then praise him a few words, so that he can do more of this kind of thing in the future.

"Someone taught me."

Jiang Lao froze for a moment, but instead smiled like just now.

Even though the younger brother was the blanket he put on her after listening to other people's words, her heart was still happy, "Who is that?"

"Daddy is my mother?" she guessed.

Jiang Jinxing shook his head, but didn't say who it was.

He just glanced at her like a little adult, and said stubbornly: "If you are sick, you won't be able to marry."

"..."

In this tone, as if wishing her to marry out?

Jiang Lao coughed.

She got up and left the pavilion, but in the evening, she asked Yu'er to go to the small servant Jiang Jinxing who was waiting for her to inquire.

"Who has the young master met recently?"

Afraid that someone would ruin his younger brother, Jiang Lao would send a maid to Jiang Jinxing's young man to ask him a few sentences to see who Jiang Jinxing had encountered.

Xiao Si hesitated a little, wondering that Rong Chen, who had often met them in the college recently, was not a new person. Didn't he often meet him before? It's just a coincidence recently that I have encountered it more often. It seemed that there was no need to report it specially, and he shook his head at Yuer.

…

When going to the palace banquet, Jiang Lao and Hu Tang rode in the same carriage, and the people hurried on the street to the east, as if something had happened to the east.

Hu Tang couldn't sit still a bit, and wanted to go east. Jiang Lao saw her like this, stopped the carriage, sent Ming Shao out, and stopped a passerby to ask.

Ming Shaohui

When he came, his face was pale, his eyes frightened, "It's Liu Qi, who was executed at Caishikou..."

"Liu Qi? Liu Shangshu?"

Hu Tang looked ignorant of what had happened.

Madam Hu saw the marriage for her. Hu Tang not only refused to follow her, but wanted to sneak out of Beijing to find her father in the north of Saibei. She was detained by Madam Hu for three months and knew nothing about what happened to the outside world.

Jiang Lao explained to her, "He was greedy for too much silver and was condemned to death by the emperor."

Liu Qi is the Shangshu of the Ministry of War.

Except for him, many officials in the six ministries were investigated.

Chen Bing was one of them. He had close ties with Liu Qi and was not as sinful as Liu Qi and was demoted to the middle of Hunan.

Chen Congyun got his wish in the spring and was promised to the third prince, but was not implicated by her father.

Jiang Lao is in the back house, it is difficult to have a chance to know about the affairs of the officialdom, all these turbulences can make her ears, Jiang Lao also vaguely feels the turmoil of the situation.

Only after hearing the news of Chen Bing's fall did he feel relieved, and felt that God was on her side.

The same news reached the ears of Queen Jiahe, but her face was filled with irritation that could not be suppressed.

Zhang Qi and Chen Bing were replaced by other officials investigated in the past six months. Nearly half of them are closely related to her father and the Xu family.

It's all that crippled handwriting!

He didn't even show his face, and asked the Liao family's seemingly trash little son to help him, and gradually wiped out the dissidents from the court. At this level, she began to feel that the foundation was shaken and worried about all these years. The plan fell short.

It's all about Rong Chen's marriage.

She didn't think of any "gifts" to give him, but he was dull, and first gave her a big gift and the queen gritted his teeth.

She shouldn’t easily listen to Shen Xianying’s words, just because she was told by Emperor Zhaowu’s sudden illness, she really thought that she had opened her eyes and could easily know what would happen in the future. Believing her words, eradicating them, she would become content in the future. Ning An Bo Mansion assisted by the help.

Now that the Ning An Bo Mansion has not collapsed, Rong Ming's foundation has been firmly established.

She had a look of disgust when she thought of Shen Xianying. It took her a lot of money to pry open her mouth. She thought that she could seek advantages and avoid disasters, but she would have made her own situation even more difficult.

Even though Shen Yanying is dead, she still tickles her teeth with hatred.

As for Ning'an Bo Mansion and Rong Ming...

Really wait until the day her son becomes the emperor, these people will be prisoners sooner or later.

The arc of her mouth is downward, her eyes are cold.

The palace who is combing her hair

The woman looked at the hostile face in the mirror, stopped her movements in fright, and knelt down, "The slave maid and the slave slave weren't intentional, and the lady spared the slave maid."

Jiahe Queen glanced at her, in a bad mood, seeing everything in the way was an obstacle, and a maid combed her hair.

Piles of beads and greens, wearing a good phoenix hairpin, suddenly heard someone calling her "mother queen" behind her.

Queen Jiahe caught a glimpse of the seventeenth prince in the mirror with joy and smile, and her face sank, "Why did you come back early today?"

"I heard that there is a flower viewing banquet in the palace, I..."

The seventeenth prince looked at the increasingly gloomy expressions of Jiahe, and suddenly he dared not say any more.

Queen Jiahe scolded him and said: "You can't come back without sending someone to call you back."

The seventeenth prince lowered his head and was unhappy.

His timid appearance, on the contrary, made Queen Jiahe tighten her eyebrows even more, "If you don't live up to it, when you leave the palace, how can this palace be like now, everything will follow you? What will you do then? Is good?"

At this time, a maid offered tea.

"Niang Niang calms down."

The ordinary-looking palace lady bowed herself to pour tea for Queen Jiahe, and when she put down the tea cup, a letter was pressed under the steaming tea cup.
