In this life, Jiang Xuening originally did not intend to have any contact with Zhou Yinzhi again.

But now suddenly ran into Xie Wei...

She has to protect herself.

Although Zhou Yinzhi is a villain, the advantage of being friends with villains is that as long as it is profitable, they can go on the same path and get what they need.

Today she came to look for Jiang Boyou, took a copy of "Children's Learning Qionglin" as an account book, and she was afraid that Xie Wei would have caught the attention of the servants in the house. Even if it's not considered sophisticated, it still has nothing to do with the word "not smart".

In her previous life, she really had no heart.

I don't know anything about the capital and court.

At the age of fourteen to less than fifteen years old, she is wondering about her own experience and destiny, and she doesn't know what the strange father and mother in Beijing will look like. In the wilderness, a heart is full of fear and panic. How can one have the thought to figure out the deep meaning behind a person's words in his illness?

She had heard it all, but really forgot.

Later, I racked my brains to think back, but I could barely remember such words as "Shen Lang's character is beyond the responsibility" and "the common people of Li are human beings, and the Ninth Five-Year Lord is also a human being".

Even so, Xie Wei still tried to test her three times before he was willing to give up; although four years have passed in this life, after seeing what she did today, he might not think back, suspecting that she actually remembered what he said, It's just that I'm used to pretending to be stupid and get away with it!

The courtyard in the afternoon was extremely quiet.

Thin branches hang down from the flower stand.

The shadow of the sun slanting to the west is like a red gauze covering the verandah and in front of the steps.

Jiang Xuening ordered Tang'er to find Zhou Yinzhi, but she sat on the porch for a long time, and finally calmed down slowly.

There are three ways to deal with the current situation:

First, continue to bite the bullet and pretend to be stupid.

After all, she was the first to show her performance, and her prestige belonged to her prestige, but Yan Lin took the blame, and she also told Jiang Boyou that it was Yan Lin who taught her. On Yan Lin's side, she was even less worried about revealing her secrets, as long as she killed someone and turned around and said Yan Lin did it, Yan Lin would recognize it.

And if there is no accident in Yongyi Hou's house, Yan Lin can protect her.

The question is, will Xie Wei believe it?

Second, learn You Fangyin once, and seek refuge with Xie Wei.

This devil in the skin of a saint was the big winner in her previous life, and apart from the Xiao family, the royal family, and the rebellious party of the Tianjiao uprising, he was not bloodthirsty.

But there are also problems.

In Yanlin, there is the Mansion of the Marquis of Yongyi, with the military power in his hands; You Fangyin is a merchant in the world, and he is a wealthy party.

What about her?

What ability and leverage does she have to make Xie Wei fancy and accept her surrender?

Thirdly, just go against Xie Wei without doing anything.

She knows the biggest secret about him, even knows his final plot, and even knows some trends in the court. She has the advantage of rebirth to give her the foresight, and she can take the lead in many things in the future.

But the problem is—

Now Xie Wei is the emperor's master, she is just a boudoir girl, her status and power are very different, she is afraid that she will be killed before she starts to fight against her. Besides, Xie Wei's ingenuity is alive, but what she knows about her previous life is dead, so how can she know that she will be able to win the fight?

You Fangyin often said that "all roads lead to the capital", but now Jiang Xuening looks back and forth, and all the roads are narrow and dead ends!

Of course, there is actually a fourth way.

No matter how powerful Xie Wei is, she is still a man. In her previous life, she was able to coax men around with a woman's tricks. In this life, she can naturally try to coax this brilliant emperor.

If Xie Wei could become her servant...

It's just that as soon as this idea came up, she couldn't help shivering, and immediately pressed it down, saying to herself: "No, you must not have such a terrible idea..."

Xie Wei with Shen Jie, with Yan Lin, with Zhou Yinzhi, and even with Zhang Zhe...

are different.

Jiang Xuening will never forget that in her last life, when she felt that she had nowhere to go, she had this idea: at night, she changed into a pale yellow palace dress, with bright and attractive makeup, and went to Xinuang Pavilion with a cup of soup cooked in the imperial dining room. . However, Xie Wei raised his eyes to look at her, saw her clothes and makeup, his eyes were dark, and the eyebrows raised almost imperceptibly, he had already seen her through, and smiled at her faintly: "Your Majesty, respect yourself."

She was so ashamed and ashamed that night that she simply ran away.

Now, as long as Jiang Xuening thinks of the scene at that time, she still has the urge to dig a hole and bury herself. How could she pretend to die and experience it a second time?

In front of people like Xie Wei, that is self-inflicted humiliation!

Therefore, judging from her current situation, the best and most feasible methods are the first and the second. As for the third type, Jiang Xuening has directly put it together with a dead end, she will never be forced to go against Xie Wei if she is not forced into a desperate situation!

After thinking about all this, meeting Zhou Yinzhi became very important.

Whether it was the imminent implication of the Yongyi Hou Mansion in the old case of King Pingnan, or simply for the purpose of making himself useful and a bargaining chip.

It's just that Jiang Xuening didn't wait for Zhou Yinzhi.

Tang'er hadn't come back yet, a woman walked up not far in front, when she saw her sitting on the porch, she smiled a little, came up and bowed to her, said: "The old servant is going to go Looking for the second girl, I didn't expect the second girl to sit here. Madam heard that the master called the people in your house to beat and kill. I don't know what happened, so I asked the old slave to invite the second girl to meet and ask. Just ask."

This is served by Meng's side.

Jiang Xuening didn't have much impression of this woman, but she could guess it from her words.

It's just that she suddenly ran into Xie Wei just now and was upset, and now she wanted to see Zhou Yinzhi again, so she came to ask her to see Mrs. Meng for no reason, but she was really not very happy in her heart, and she didn't even look very good, so she just responded coldly : "I know, let's go."

Mrs. Meng is talking to Jiang Xuehui in her room.

When the news about Jiang Xuening looking for the servant girl in Jiang Boyou's cooking house came over, both of them were a little surprised.

Knowing that Jiang Xuening didn't come back last night, Mrs. Meng just called Jiang Xuening to come, first to ask about the previous situation, to see what her daughter who was raised by a concubine was thinking, and secondly, there should be a limit if there are no rules. What's the matter if the girl doesn't come back all night?

Not long after, Jiang Xuening came.

She was not close to her biological mother, Meng Shi, and Meng Shi didn't like her lax rules and indulgent nature, so her attitude towards Meng Shi was already unfamiliar, and when she saw Jiang Xuehui present, her voice became more muted when saluting, as if it was a routine: "My daughter greets her mother."

Jiang Xuehui next to her was directly ignored by her.

As soon as Mrs. Meng heard that she had a grudge against Sister Hui, she frowned the two delicate willow-leaf eyebrows, but she couldn't say anything about her, so she said: "Get up, what's going on today? Is the mother-in-law making a big fuss?"

Jiang Xuening then replied: "They have been unruly in the house for a long time, and today they are getting more and more rampant. Yesterday when I went out with Yan Lin, I mentioned that Yan Lin taught her daughter a way to cure them, that's why what happened today when I came back. If you accidentally disturb It is the daughter's fault to kill the mother."

When others mention Yan Lin, they always call him "Little Marquis" or "Yan Shizi", even Jiang Boyou and the Meng family are no exception. After all, the House of Yongyihou is powerful and holds military power, so he has won the sacred heart. Can afford to take it lightly.

But Jiang Xuening was fine.

Calling her by her name openly and silently shows how indulgent Yan Lin is to her.

Listening to this, Meng frowned even deeper.

Although Yan Lin's background can be regarded as one of the best in the entire capital, except for the children of the Xiao family in Chengguo Duke's mansion, no one can match him, but this is also a bold man who acts like Meng Lang.

Sister Ning was quite obedient when she just picked it up.

But ever since I met Yan Lin, she disguised herself as a man and went out to hang out under the name of "Master Jiang's Cousin" all day long, and even the whole family had to cover her up!

Mrs. Meng felt that it was necessary to say the last thing: "In the past, I thought it was too much for you to go out with Shizi Yan, but after all, the master has acquiesced in this matter, so I can't say anything about it. But tolerance is not connivance, sister Ning , you have to know in your own mind. The eldest girl stays out all night and fools around all day long. If things get out, you have a prince to take care of you after all. In the bottom of my eyes. But your sister is still waiting to be married now, it doesn’t matter if your own reputation is ruined, outsiders always mention the girl from the Jiang family, so where does your sister go?"

Meng Shi's words are reasonable.

If her actions are spread, it will indeed implicate Jiang Xuehui.

Reason told Jiang Xuening that she shouldn't feel that there was anything wrong with these words, but there was a hostility in her heart that made her quietly clenched the palms hanging by her sides, and only closed her eyes and said: "What mother said Yes, my daughter will be more cautious in the future."

Listening to her perfunctory answer, Mrs. Meng stood here with such a complexion, and she became a little angry for a while.

With a "snap", she pressed down the teacup in her hand and was about to punish her.

Jiang Xuehui, who was next to her, saw the scene with her eyelids twitching, and she sighed in her heart. She felt that although her mother was doing it for her own good, such words and harsh words would undoubtedly push her younger sister to face them, and this account might have to be settled in the future. In her body, how dare to sit and watch Meng's attack?

Jiang Xuehui hurriedly held Meng Shi's hand, and stopped her in time: "You must know that my sister may not even listen to the words of Yan Shizi in the past, but now she is willing to listen to other people's words to manage the affairs of her house. Mature and stable. Since Prince Yan can make my sister better, why should my mother worry about gossip? My sister's future marriage will be decent, which is also a good thing for the family. My marriage may not be without my sister's honor in the future , and I ask mother to relax. Today I encountered the Wang Xing family's troubles, and it was my sister who came forward to help me out."

Jiang Xuening thought in her heart that it was just seeing Wang Xing's family talking nonsense behind her back and taking her things, but it had nothing to do with Jiang Xuehui.

At this moment, he watched her coldly to comfort Mrs. Meng with nonsense.

After hearing this, Mrs. Meng thought it was true.

It's just that it's hard to take back what she said earlier. When she raised her eyes, she saw Jiang Xuening standing there with a deadpan expressionless face. Although her facial features somewhat resembled hers, the charm at the corners of her eyes and brows all reminded her of Wanniang, that bitch. people.

She lost her mood immediately, waved her hand and said: "Forget it, anyway, your father is in charge of your affairs. Go back, and don't use it to say hello at night."

"Yes, my daughter is leaving."

Meng Shi didn't want to look at her more, and Jiang Xuening didn't bother to stay longer.

She bowed cleanly and exited.

At this time, the sky will be late and the sunset will be bright.

Under the wall at the back of the west chamber, there is a wood hibiscus planted. The pink flowers are either dark or light, and they look gorgeous under the sunlight.

She took Lian'er to pass by, and suddenly a tree hibiscus hit her on the head.

The blooming hibiscus rolled down, Jiang Xuening subconsciously stretched out her hand to catch it, then raised her head to look, and saw Yan Lin wearing a dark black robe, with a leather belt around her waist, sitting on the wall full of hibiscus, with one leg Bent up, held the sword in one hand, and smiled at her: "Today's daily lecture ended early, but the Holy Majesty dragged me to talk for a long time, and now I came out of the palace. The day after tomorrow is Double Ninth Festival, and there will be a lantern festival in Beijing. You go and see."

The sunset glow fell on the flowers and fell on his cheeks.

Jiang Xuening's eyes were suddenly dazzled, and she was in a daze.

After a while, I realized what he said: Double Ninth Lantern Festival. That was when Shen Zhiyi, the Eldest Princess of Leyang who followed Shen Jie out of the palace in her previous life, met her disguised as a man and fell in love with her...
