The emperor went to court and was reviewing the papers in his study. A minister asked to see him.
After the man came in, he told the emperor a piece of news: Princess Xingrong, a few months ago, selected several embroiderers from the market to come into the palace and said they would embroider something for her.
However, for such a long time, the embroiderers were not released, and there was no news. The family was worried and went to the door of the princess's house to ask, but the princess's house denied it, saying that it had never happened.
The families of those embroiderers did not dare to harass in front of the princess's house, but they were anxious. Since they were embroiderers, they would always recognize a few ladies. Finally, they found him after wandering around and said, "Long live my lord, I don't even know about this matter."
What's going on? I'm thinking, if this really happens... it may be big or small. But it's better to know something in advance. You see..."
The emperor frowned when he thought of what Xing Rong had exposed at the summer palace banquet.
The emperor didn't have the courage to inquire about Princess Fuyang's affairs, so he kept Xingrong under lock and key. He originally thought that he would wait for some time and calm down before talking.
It's so good, what is she doing with a few embroiderers?
Send this minister away, call King An, who is preparing for the wedding, and ask him to investigate.
If there is really a royal scandal, it cannot be leaked.
Prince An was about to get married soon. He had been busy all day. The emperor called him here. Hearing that it was about the eldest princess again, he felt angry. Without any nonsense, he took people to the princess's mansion and searched the house as soon as he entered.
people.
Princess Xingrong finally waited for her father to send someone, but it turned out that it was Prince An who came to search the palace!
She immediately became anxious and didn't care who Prince An was.
He was so angry that he screamed and asked questions and got furious.
King An didn't pay much attention at first. He was circling around ten vases in the living room.
Well, what a rare thing! I vaguely heard that when the emperor’s grandmother celebrated her 40th birthday, the emperor’s grandfather gave her a set of ten vases, which was a perfect metaphor.
This is probably the set!
Unexpectedly, the emperor gave it to her...
Princess Xingrong was still hopping and throwing a tantrum. Seeing that King An ignored her, she directly talked about his princess, which must be unpleasant...
How could Prince An hear this?
With a wink, his men jumped out, drove the princess's servants out, and beat the princess directly...
It was so cruel. He knocked her to the ground and kicked her twice... The princess's newly healed ribs were broken again.
This time it hurt more than the last time... Princess Xingrong lay on the ground, unable to get up, and screamed...
She simply couldn't believe that King An would treat her like this! He was lying there with a ferocious face, shouting, "I'll let my father kill you when you turn around and punish your nine tribes!"
King An was so angry that he said, "Princess, you are as stupid as a donkey! You and your father are both members of the nine clans of this king!"
His men actually found a few embroiderers in a few spare rooms at the back and brought them all over. In the hands of the embroiderers, they were holding the dragon robes that were about to be embroidered...
When King An saw...dragon robe?! He also fainted. He pointed and asked, "Why are you embroidering this? Is it possible that you want to usurp the throne and become the emperor?"
Of course Princess Xingrong did not admit that "I don't know...where it came from!"
She broke out in sweat and moaned softly.
The embroiderers knelt on the ground and cried, "Sir, please forgive me! It was the princess who drew the shapes and asked the ladies to follow them. The ladies knew they couldn't make the dragon robes, so they only embroidered the shapes and did not open the faces.
.”
King An took a look, and sure enough, the dragon robe was almost finished, except for the eyes and nose.
Prince An really didn't know what to say, "Xingrong... this matter is not a trivial matter. Even if you are the eldest daughter of the emperor, it is the crime of beheading! Why don't you explain it truthfully as soon as possible?!"
Of course Xingrong refused to say, "It has nothing to do with me. This is the last time I offended you, and you framed me for it!"
One of King An's eyes brightened, and he smiled, "Okay, okay. I am the one who framed you for the fault... Then I, the king, will give you another beating!"
He stepped forward, stepped on Princess Xingrong's injured ribs with his foot...
Xingrong couldn't even hide...
She finally had it too, when the pain was unbearable!
After a while, King An was done with it, and went to the emperor with full malice: "Brother, your eldest daughter wanted to have Qi Erlang, but she failed, and she was beaten by Lao Qi. She hated her so much!
She felt that ordinary means could not defeat the Duke of Qi. So, she thought of getting a dragon robe, secretly placing it in the Qi family, and then charging the Qi family with conspiracy to usurp the throne, it would be best to have the whole family beheaded."
After saying that, King An chuckled again, "What a handiwork, tsk tsk! Fortunately, she is just a princess. Otherwise..."
The emperor was a little helpless. This temperament was really inherited from Concubine Li. "Why are you laughing? This girl is really... disappointing to me. In Tianmu Temple, prepare a courtyard and let her go?!"
Tianmu Temple is a royal temple, and some childless concubines, sick princesses, etc. will arrange to go there.
When King An heard this, he said, "Yes! That's right for you, you're opening up a bit!"
The emperor said, "Oh, sin. I used to think that it was not easy for her to be a widow when she was young. I should have been more considerate! I didn't expect that she was so ignorant. Humph, let's not mention it! You don't know, Lao Qi, she is also guilty of being stupid these days."
! He fell in love with a woman and told me that he would only marry her and not others! You said this bastard... I learned it all from you! Huh, it seems that I am usually too good-tempered and spoil you!
"
The emperor's face looked very ugly.
King An chuckled, "Brother Emperor, Lao Qi's place... after all, they are a couple living together for the rest of their lives, so you can just turn a blind eye..."
The Emperor: "Huh! Dreaming! Now that you have thought about it! I will ask Concubine Xian to find two suitable concubines for you. From now on, you can live a serious life!"
King An smiled and said, "Yes! No matter how much you give me, I will accept it!"
Just take it! As for where to throw it, don’t you just listen to my princess?
When he left the princess's house just now, he had quietly sent ten vases home. The princess saw them and must have loved them...
The Emperor "Go, go, go!"
————The case of the Li family was cleared, and the newly revealed Marquis Li also took back the property of the Nuo family!
For a time, many people in the capital were filled with regret!
This gold nugget has been dazzling in front of my eyes for a long time, why didn't I notice it?
Then, rumors about Marquis Li's marriage also spread.
Two houses on one shoulder? The eldest wife is actually Wu Jingxiang, the granddaughter of the Wu family. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk... This silly boy is so lucky.
But this... the future Mrs. Hou... the Zhang family? Who are the Zhang family!?
Many people began to inquire, but after inquiring enough, not many people knew...
There are many curious people, so the Zhang family has many more opportunities to visit!
Mrs. Zhang’s interpretation of the Wu family’s affairs is: After all, the Wu family daughter married into the Li family and got so much property! She is still the eldest sister-in-law! She took advantage of her. His family should be satisfied!
So, I happily dressed up and took my daughter out to socialize.
After officially going out, I realized that it is not easy to integrate into the circle of ladies in the capital.
Zhang Wenzhen still followed her accustomed approach. She wanted to please people, wanted to know the news, and also wanted to find opportunities to hurt Wu Jingxiang. It would be better if Lin Zhixiu could be added to the list.
As a result, it was completely useless.
No one paid attention to her. She had never experienced such failure and depression.
Wu Jingxiang is the wife of the Li family and will marry into the Li family first.
Her dowry has been taken care of long ago.
The Li family has a simple population. She already knew how to deal with Mrs. Li the last time they met. So she didn't need to prepare anything else.
But it’s a busy time for the Li family.
How can we take over so many industries?
Li Feng, he is good at fighting, but he is definitely not good at these things.
Mrs. Li... can barely read. She can't handle such a large amount of property and it's so complicated.
She was anxious, if she could get in early...she would do it!
But now...
She sent people out to inquire, and when they came back, she was extremely surprised...
First of all, someone took over the Li family's property. One was an official of Prince Qing's palace, whose surname was An. He was the uncle of Lin Zhixiu, the beautiful girl he liked. The other one turned out to be his distant cousin, Wu Dong.
They were the ones who took the lead in doing the work. The people who did the actual work were the people in charge of these two people. Moreover, they had already been divided into several groups and went to the south.
Secondly, the Li family bought a house... I heard that you can live in it once you move in!
She knew that yard, it was quite good.
Finally, she no longer had to marry into that little shabby yard. Originally, she was still worried about this matter...
