Chapter 294: Many Enemies
Chapter 294 Many Enemies
Now that he is in charge of the Secret Guard Division, he has as many enemies as she does. But as soon as he was suspended, someone wanted his life. Who is the person behind this?
She was worried, but said nothing.
If he finds out and can tell her, he will definitely tell her.
In the next few days, Lan Yanyu was indeed very busy. She didn't see him for several days in a row. In the blink of an eye, it was late July, which was the emperor's grandson's first birthday party.
The first-year banquet was organized by the Ministry of Etiquette, and all the guests were personally appointed by the prince and princess. All those who received the invitations came to the East Palace one by one.
Chi Jinzhi came with his wife, daughter and son, and Chi Nanqing also came with him.
Chi Nanqing originally didn't want to come, but Su Xiangwan forced her to come. Chi Shenbei didn't want to get married. Men can delay, but women can't. If they keep delaying, they may not meet a good one.
I came here with Chi Nanqing, and I also wanted to see if there was anyone I could catch my eye on during the emperor's grandson's first birthday party.
Chi Nanqing had no choice but to follow Chi Yanqing to stay with Su Xiangwan. After Chi Jinzhi arrived at the East Palace, he went to meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with other ministers of the DPRK!
The female guests were brought directly to the banquet hall where the emperor's grandson's birthday party was held.
As soon as the three people sat down, a joyful voice sounded from beside them: "Auntie, fourth sister, fifth sister, you are finally here!"
Chi Yanqing turned her head and saw that the person sitting next to her happened to be Chi Nanyu.
The one who spoke was Xu Ruyue. Her family belonged to the Ministry of Etiquette. According to the rules, she should have sat here with them. Moreover, the Xu family's hometown was in Hunan and they ran Hunan embroidery. Naturally, they were among them this time.
Xu Ruyue said: "No, it's your close relatives from your mother's family. When they get married, you are the one who comes first. When they see you, they should naturally bow to you!"
"This is Dayan's rule!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xiangwan stood up, took Chi Nanqing and Chi Yanqing beside him and bowed to Chi Nanyu: "In that case, I have seen the concubine."
Next to Xu Ruyue was her mother, scolding: "Ruyue, don't be ridiculous."
"Now, her body is in my hands!"
Su Xiangwan's face remained unchanged: "I have misunderstood."
Having said this, she looked at Chi Nanyu: "On the other hand, your Majesty, your second uncle's family has countless servants, and your Majesty is also the second highness's concubine. I don't know why, but you have to sell your own sister?"
After being reminded by her, Chi Nanyu thought about it carefully and said, "That's true!"
"Mrs. Marquis Yong'an has been in poor health before. Perhaps she has forgotten the rules of the capital!"
A voice sounded from the side: "Nan Yu, since your aunt said that rules cannot be abolished, then you are now the concubine of His Highness, so by rights, you shouldn't be treated as a courtesy?"
Su Xiangwan said quietly: "Since your Majesty doesn't know, it's better for you to go back to your parents' house and find out what's going on before you intervene in my family's affairs!"
She frowned slightly: "Why are you here?"
She is now considered a member of the royal family, so she should sit opposite Li Chaoyang and the others.
Chi Nanyu smiled: "It seems that the fourth sister is really good at taking care of people, and she takes good care of my eldest aunt very well."
Chi Yanqing: "…………"
She said it was such a good opportunity to get closer to other members of the royal family, how could she miss it?
Chi Nanyu still smiled very gently and looked at Su Xiangwan: "How is auntie doing now?"
"But the fourth sister is my father's daughter after all. She..."
Su Xiangwan's eyes were light: "Excuse me for your concern, my wife, I'm in good health now!"
After saying that, the painting style changed and he looked at Chi Nanqing coldly: "On the contrary, the fourth sister, her biological father is still alive, but now there is no one to take care of her, but she has been staying in Yong'an Houfu. This is looking at the two families.
The family is separated, so you don’t like your father anymore?”
"It's just that since the second uncle sold the fourth girl, and the deed is in my hands, the second uncle can't help but intervene in the fourth girl's affairs, and he has no qualifications."
Su Xiangwan looked at Chi Nanyu: "My mother's father's house has dozens of servants to serve her, but I don't know why there is no one to take care of her. Besides, if I remember correctly."
Su Xiangwan said quietly: "Your father's daughter was also sold before."
Her expression finally improved a little, but she still pretended to be indifferent on the surface: "It doesn't matter, my eldest aunt and the others are also my mother's family."
There are a total of eight embroidery workshops selected, and their status is the most valuable, so they are at the front, right next to the Chi family, and to the left and right of Chi Nanyu.
No wonder.
Chi Nanyu's eyes turned cold: "Auntie, I misunderstood."
"I don't dare to interfere with the affairs of the Yong'an Marquis."
Chinan dialect: “…………”
Chi Nanyu gritted his teeth and looked a little sad: "Auntie, now you are angry with Nanyu!"
Su Xiangwan said: "But I bought the fourth girl now. She is my person. She can go wherever I tell her to go. Moreover, the body deed I bought is also the one your father sold to the four girls."
Girl’s!”
"The empress's father sold the fourth girl, and now her deed is in the hands of my wife."
"Logically speaking, they are people from my Yong'an Marquis House. Are you meddling in the affairs of Yong'an Marquis House?"
Chi Nanyu's face froze: "What are you talking about, aunt? We are all one family. How can we sell this thing to our own family?"
Chi Nanyu curled her lips and smiled: "Fifth sister knows that all the owners of the embroidery workshops that make clothes for the crown princess and the emperor's grandson are here, including our Jiang's embroidery workshop, so naturally it is the right place to do it.
"
Xu Ruyue said: "What's your mother's family? Aren't you all separated?"
The phrase "concubine" made Chi Nanyu's face freeze, and this salute made Mrs. Xu's face freeze even more. Then she smiled slightly and said: "It seems that the Marquis Yong'an still remembers the etiquette!
"
Chi Nanyu's expression changed: "I don't know about this either."
"I……"
Chinan dialect: “…………”
"The rules cannot be broken."
Chi Yanqing turned her head sideways: "But according to what I just looked at, Mrs. Xu has never given a gift to the concubine!"
Mrs. Xu immediately frowned and blurted out instinctively: "Is she worthy?"
Chi Nanyu's face suddenly darkened this time. She didn't deserve it. If she didn't deserve it, who would?
However, after Mrs. Xu finished speaking, she immediately realized what she had said and quickly bowed: "Concubine, please forgive me. I made a mistake as a minister and had no other intention."
Even if Chi Nanyu is a high-ranking concubine, how dare she say anything?
The fists in her hands tightened: "I know, Mrs. Xu doesn't need to explain."
