While Chen Yu was tasting peach blossom cake, she admired the beautiful scenery of the peach blossoms in the garden. Then she glanced at Xue Pingli, who had been following them.
Dayong's restrictions on men and women are not that strict, but if the other party keeps following them, they can see some of his little thoughts. For example, his eyes are always following Yan Long.
Chen Yun doesn't have any negative feelings towards Xue Pinli. So what if he was Chen Ruowei's husband in his previous life? They have nothing to do with each other in this life, and it's not Xue Pinli who is reborn.
As for Xue Pingli's early death in his previous life, and now that he has neither married Chen Ruowei nor gone to the frontier, his fate has also changed somewhat.
Chen Xun said objectively that Xue Pingli is really an outstanding young talent.
He was born in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, and his family background can be considered prominent. Although the Xue family is not a top-notch family, it is not a small family either, and the family background is still there.
And Xue Pingli himself is also very good. He is not as handsome as the young man with a weak crown, and his martial arts is strong. His literary talent is not outstanding but he is also very good. He is good in all aspects.
The most important thing is that he is not the kind of passionate and lustful person. There are very few concubines in the backyard. Yan Long will have less trouble competing with the backyard for favors if he marries her.
Of course, fights in the house are inevitable. Mrs. Zhenyuan Hou, the second and third aunts of the Xue family, and the concubines of Zhenyuan Hou are all going to fight.
Of course, it doesn't matter what she thinks. It depends on what Yan Long and Concubine Yun think, and what matters most is whether Emperor Yun Zhao is willing to let his daughter marry Xue Pinli.
Of course, she didn't bother to care about Xue Pingli's feelings for Yan Long, as long as it didn't affect Yan Long's reputation or her.
"Hey, isn't this the eldest girl from the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion? Are you going out to enjoy the flowers with your brother?"
Just when Chen Yun and the others were getting along harmoniously, a strange and unpleasant voice broke the warm atmosphere.
Chen Xun and the others looked at the source of the sound and saw a girl wearing a light green skirt. Her face was lightly painted and looked very delicate and beautiful. She was a very beautiful girl.
Xue Mingzhu's face darkened when she saw the other party, "Miss Liu Si is also here to enjoy the peach blossoms, why can't I come?"
Miss Liu Si, the second daughter of Uncle Anyuan's house, is about the same age as Xue Mingzhu, and the two families are relatively close, so they can be said to be mortal enemies, and they cannot become good sisters just because they are neighbors.
Miss Liu Si smiled when she saw Xue Pingli and said, "Prince Xue is here too?"
"It's true, Miss Xue, you are already a hair-length girl. Why do you ask your brother to follow you when you go out? Is it because you are afraid of any danger outside, so you ask your brother to follow you all the time?"
"Miss Xue should also think about your brother. Prince Xue is not married yet, so he can follow you out, but he will get married soon. By then, he will definitely spend more time with his wife, Miss Xue
But you can’t be unconsiderate.”
Xue Mingzhu smiled reluctantly when she heard this and said, "Miss Liu Si is so lenient. My brother loves my sister, so why is he willing to accompany me out?"
"Miss Liu Si, why didn't your brothers accompany you? Or, as you said, they all went to accompany your sister-in-law?"
"That's good. After all, we are all married. How can we hang around my sister?" Xue Mingzhu said, looking like she finally remembered, "I forgot, Miss Liu Si, your brother
We didn’t even accompany you a few times before we got married.”
"Oh, I forgot that not all brothers love my sister as much as my brother. He is worried about her comfort and has protected me since I was a child." Xue Mingzhu said with a proud smile.
Miss Liu Si couldn't help but be jealous after hearing this. Just like Xue Mingzhu said, her brothers would not protect her sister like Xue Pingli all the time. What they care more about is themselves and their family, sister? It's just that
They're just relatives with whom we have a good relationship.
"Miss Xue is still as sharp-tongued as ever." Miss Liu Si forced a smile and then looked at Chen Yu and Yan Long. When she saw their faces, she couldn't help but feel jealous. These two people
She looks so good-looking, right?
Miss Liu Si passed Yan Long and frowned slightly when she looked at Chen Yu. She was about to start mocking her for not being dignified in appearance and who she was as a concubine, but was interrupted.
"Your Majesty, the British Duke Chu Jiuniang has met Princess Ning." Chu Mingluan, the legitimate daughter of the British Duke, interrupted Miss Liu Si's sarcasm about to speak, and politely saluted Chen Yun.
"The Ninth Lady of the British Duke's Palace?" Chen Yun looked at Chu Mingluan after hearing this. The little girl about the same age as her was young and beautiful when she was young and beautiful. She was born in a prominent family, pampered, and had good genes. She was also very good-looking and a big girl.
beauty.
"It turns out they are from the British government. Is the Nine Lady also here to enjoy the flowers?" Chen Xun said with a smile, "You can come over, let's try the delicious peach blossom cake and peach blossom stuffing together, and then enjoy the colorful fallen flowers together.
How about peach blossoms?"
"Your Majesty, Princess Xie Ning." Chu Mingluan said politely. Of course, she was not too polite in her actions, and walked into the pavilion with her little friend.
The pavilion in Taoyuan is very large and can seat many people, so Chu Mingluan and the others still have a place for them to sit after they enter.
Miss Liu Si was stunned when Chu Mingluan spoke out. She stared at Chu Mingluan and Chen Xun exchanging greetings, and looked at her face blankly. She really didn't expect that the other party turned out to be the famous Ning.
princess.
Princess Ning was also the subject of discussion among countless people in Chang'an some time ago. People in Chang'an couldn't help but talk about the real daughter living abroad, her marriage to Prince Ning, etc.
Miss Liu Si really didn't expect that the other party would be so good-looking, and she still had that kind of enchanting beauty.
Doesn’t it mean that the elders don’t like this kind of uneasy appearance? Why does Princess Ning look like a fairy? Are you sure she didn’t become a vixen?
Miss Liu Si was really jealous. Of course, besides being jealous, she also had a sense of superiority. The sense of superiority came from the fact that her appearance was dignified and beautiful, which her elders liked very much, while Princess Ning turned out to be as enchanting as a vixen.
"So it's Princess Ning? I'm disrespectful." Miss Liu Si quickly collected her emotions and greeted Chen Yu politely.
"I didn't expect that Princess Ning would go out with people from the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion to enjoy the flowers and ask Princess Ning to forgive me. I didn't recognize you," Miss Liu Si explained.
Chen Xun nodded. She was quite surprised by how adaptable and flexible this Miss Liu Si was, and how well she could assess the situation. Just watching the exchange between her and Xue Mingzhu, she thought she was a very brainless person who only cared about doing things for her own pleasure.
But Chen Xun changed her mind. Although Uncle Anyuan's Mansion is only an earl now, it can be regarded as a well-established family that has been passed down for many years. As the direct daughter of the uncle's family, Miss Liu Si's education must have not fallen behind. She still understands what the other party should know.
of.
For example, she remembers it very well, such as not easily offending those who cannot be offended.
No matter how jealous and disdainful Ms. Liu Si is of Chen Chun, Chen Chun is the legitimate daughter of an uncle like Princess Ning, so she must be respectful and polite, and cannot offend her according to her own wishes.
