Ling Xiao, on the other hand, had some enlightenment at that moment. Her visualization could make herself inconspicuous, which was good. She didn't like the feeling of being so radiant, and felt that she was more low-key.
good.
Later, the coachman told her that the result of the investigation was that Aunt Dou belonged to Dingxibo's Mansion. Dingxibo's Mansion? After Ling Xiao repeated it in her mind, she quickly dug out the information about Dingxibo's Mansion.
Dingxibo Mansion was once a marquis's mansion, not a bureaucracy. There once was a capable man who was able to conquer and fight. After he achieved unparalleled achievements, Dingxihou Mansion was established. However, it has declined in recent years.
This is because the situation in the Hou Mansion is not very good, and there is no situation where I am a hero and my son is a good man. Most of the descendants of the Hou Mansion are mediocre children who only take the credit of their predecessors.
Because the first Marquis of Dingxi spent his whole life in battle, he had no extra time to guide his children and grandchildren, and could not take into account the education of his own offspring.
In the end, all the descendants who came out of the Dingxihou Mansion were incompetent in literature and martial arts. They had no ability at all and were always the most ordinary people.
This has resulted in the Bofu now becoming a Bofu. In addition to having a Bofu brand, it has become the most common official family with little strength.
The first generation of Dingxihou was very dissatisfied when he learned the true situation of his family. He did not expect that his descendants would be a bunch of losers.
But then he changed his mind and thought, forget it! His previous mother-in-law always wanted him to live and not to become famous.
But when he grew up, he didn't listen to his mother's words at all, and fought his way through thousands of troops to become a marquis.
When he had sons, the Marquis would send them to his mother as a filial piety for his son.
The old lady naturally raised each of her grandchildren according to her own ideas, no matter how mediocre they were.
By the time Ding Xihou discovered the problem, it was already irreversible, and in the end he just sighed.
In the days that followed, I didn’t say anything about asking my children and grandchildren to work hard and make progress.
This resulted in the Dingxi Marquis' Mansion becoming a Bo's Mansion, with mediocrity from generation to generation.
Although not so rich and wealthy, it has always been very ordinary.
But it has been passed down.
Many of the same nobles have perished.
The people in the uncle's house have always lived a very contented life.
With the name of the uncle's family, the family lives a very mediocre life.
There is also an alien among them, that is the old lady’s biological son.
The half-brother of the current uncle has a few skills and has been passed the imperial examination.
Speaking of which, the age gap between the uncle and this younger brother is not small, as much as forty years.
Someone once said that the eldest grandson of the current uncle is actually older than this uncle.
Ling Xiao was a little surprised after hearing this. The gap was too big, and it didn't feel like old clams.
In later generations, there are women who became mothers in their sixties or seventies, but they used scientific methods to become mothers, which was unlikely in ancient society.
Generally, modern women begin menopause around the age of fifty, which means that her ovaries have not matured new eggs, and the ovaries and uterus have begun to shrink.
How is it possible to give birth to a child again at the age of sixty or seventy? This is not the so-called world of immortals. Ling Xiao thought about it and felt that it was very possible that this old lady was not the original wife, but a step-wife.
If the guess is correct, the age gap between the old uncle and the old lady is quite big. Alas! The woman who became the stepmother was really miserable, marrying such an old husband, she suddenly remembered something
In other words, that is: a pear tree weighs begonias.
After Ling Xiao thought about the situation clearly, she planned to come to see who Aunt Dou was at night. She felt that she was not far from the truth, and she would know what was going on after she found out.
A group of them went to the place where Shiba Niang lived. After all, the Shiba Niang siblings entered the capital after receiving the imperial edict. I wonder how the little girl is doing now? Besides, Zhen Su was very angry after arriving in the capital. She
The marriage was actually being manipulated.
This seemed to make her jump into a trap. Although she had considered going to Yandi before, before she had time to do anything, she was transformed into a person who could fill the trap by an imperial edict.
Partly angry and a little unhappy.
She has been thinking about what she should do these days. Wanting to go to Yandi and being escorted to Yandi by imperial edict are completely different concepts. Anyway, it can be seen that none of the noble ladies in the capital want to go to Yandi.
land.
This discovery made Zhen suddenly very angry. He would not think of himself when something good happened, but he would think of himself when something was unsolvable. What kind of emperor is this?
Anyway, she didn't like the new emperor's behavior at all. She had made up her mind how to do things after arriving in Yandi. It was her own decision.
There was another question: What about An Geer? Keep him in the capital? No! Zhen suddenly rejected this bad idea.
She wants to take away her only biological brother, and she absolutely cannot trust him alone. Who knows what will happen if she stays in the capital?
She even thought of her grandmother, everything she had done for their siblings, she had always lived for them.
After Zhen suddenly thought about it, she felt that she had the strength to face all difficulties, and she also had the Tao sisters with her.
Because of the Tao sister, Zhen suddenly felt very grateful to Twelve Niang and gave her a generous gift when she got married.
Why are you grateful to Twelve Niangs? It suddenly occurred to Zhen that she knew Sister Tao because of her.
She knew that her younger brother would benefit a lot from her friendship with the eldest lady of the Tao family.
It was the presence of Sister Tao that made An Geer's health improve.
Although Zhensun sometimes doesn't want to trouble the other party any more.
But I still hope that Sister Tao will pay more attention to An Geer's situation.
Fortunately, after several years of conditioning, An Geer's body still looks weak.
But it's actually much better than before, and I basically don't have to take medicine every meal.
This is the best state for An Ge, so that the little guy can start to become a little naughty.
Especially when Zhen suddenly knew that Taoist Priest Yuzhen said that if he continued to nurse himself back to health, Brother An would be like a normal person.
Why doesn't this make Zhen suddenly happy? Before, she was a little annoyed that her brother's recovery was too slow.
But now, Zhen suddenly feels that this is an opportunity. If An Ge'er is not in good health, he can be taken away.
Instead of staying in the capital and letting the two siblings worry about each other, if anything happens, it will be too late.
During this period of time, she has been busy with etiquette training, which makes her a little boring every day. Just today she received news that Ling Xiao had arrived.
She was very happy after hearing this, and quickly sent a message for Ling Xiao to come in. After waiting for a while, the two met, and it was the first time for many people to see Zhen's sudden enthusiasm, and their whole person suddenly became alive.
It was the first time for many of them to see this sister from the Tao family. They saw that she was slender, wearing a green Taoist robe, and had the simplest Taoist bun on her head. She smiled after seeing the Eighteenth Niang.
"Senior sister, you are finally here. I miss you so much. By the way, where are Sanlang, Wulang and the others? Didn't they come with them?" Zhen said suddenly.
After living together for several years, Zhen suddenly regarded Sanlang Wulang as his brother, and was a little surprised that the two of them did not come to the capital.
"They are here, and they should still be in the Hou Mansion now. They can't come in to see you, so they have no intention of coming in to see you."
"Hou's Mansion?" Zhen was a little surprised. He didn't know which Hou's Mansion it was. But he soon came to his senses. It was the Changchun Mansion.
"Today I went to see the future Madam Hou first, and then I had time to see how you are doing now."
"Well, I guess it's her. There's nothing more to say now. Everyone has changed." Zhen said suddenly.
"Fortunately, I still have senior sister here. I just wanted to talk to senior sister." Zhen said with a wink.
She reached out to hold Ling Xiao's arm, trying to gain the courage to continue going down.
She knew before that she would definitely go to Yandi, so she agreed to it.
But she was actually unsure because of the legend of Yan Di.
After seeing Ling Xiao coming today, I suddenly felt like I had a backbone.
Ling Xiao patted her hand gently and glanced at the unhappy people.
He said to the person who taught Zhen Su: "I wonder if I can have time to talk to Shiba Niang?"
Ling Xiao could see that they should come from the inner courtyard of the palace, and there was a nanny who came here to train Zhen Su's manners.
When she gets married, she must represent the face of the royal family, and must undergo special training in many etiquette aspects.
At this moment, Shiba Niang was a little nervous and wanted to find a strong friend to support her. Ling Xiao found that she was late.
She had never considered Zhen Su's idea before. This was indeed a lot of pressure for a young girl who had not experienced any major events.
Zhen Su is not someone who has traveled through several worlds. She feels that the current training is a heavy pressure on her spirit. Is it necessary to be so picky?
The nun in the palace originally didn't want to show off her face, but she was also well-informed. When she saw Ling Xiao, she realized that this young Kun Dao was not an ordinary person.
Although this nanny is very proud, no one who can get out of the palace is a fool. Although this lady of the Tao family is not well-known in the capital, she is very impressive.
Although this kind of aura rarely appeared, she could feel it and nodded: "Okay, the princess has been practicing for a long time, so why not stop here for today's lesson."
Ling Xiao nodded after hearing this, and everyone else left one after another, giving Zhen Su and Ling Xiao a chance to have a good conversation. Then Zhen Su said: "Senior sister, I feel a little scared."
After hearing some hesitant words, Ling Xiao looked at her. She was still a fifteen-year-old child. She was just preparing to pass the high school entrance examination in modern society and had not yet entered high school.
Even though children in ancient times generally matured prematurely, it still made Shiba Niang feel pressured. This kind of fear and hesitation is relatively normal.
"What are you afraid of? Zhen Su, you are not going alone, there is Brother An, and we are all going together." Ling Xiao said.
Zhen nodded suddenly. After hearing what he wanted to hear, his eyes felt sour, but he laughed again.
The two people slowly walked to a pond and stopped, and then Ling Xiao said: "We all have to face reality."
"You won't be bullied when you arrive in Yandi, but you have to be strong yourself, after all..."
At this point, Ling Xiao paused and said, "There is no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever."
"There will always be separation between people, so you must work hard on your own."
Zhen suddenly nodded after hearing this. She naturally knew that one day she would have to rely on herself.
"Just like I thought I would be with my parents forever."
"But after the flood came, they finally returned to the west on a crane."
When she said this, Ling Xiao's voice still sounded very calm.
But it can be heard that Ling Xiao's voice is a bit deeper, and actually contains a bit of sadness.
Zhen suddenly didn't say anything because she remembered that her guardian grandmother, the eldest princess, had also gone to the west.
For her, this is a dull pain deep in her heart, and this pain may stay with her for the rest of her life.
On the contrary, An Ge'er is still young and many things have been gradually forgotten. For example, he has gradually forgotten his late grandmother.
Ling Xiao asked her to tell An Ge'er in detail about the eldest princess when he grew up. At that time, he would not easily forget the past.
I will never forget the memorial ceremony every year. I will go with An Geer to visit my grandmother’s tomb and her parents, who also need to pay tribute.
Ling Xiao looked around and said, "Today's Twelfth Mother is very funny." Ling Xiao didn't smile when she said this. In her opinion, Twelfth Mother's position had changed a bit. In the early years, Twelfth Mother had not done anything.
Something bad happened to her, but now the situation has changed.
Zhen Su was very smart and heard that Ling Xiao was even more distant from Twelve Niangs. She looked at Ling Xiao and said, "Did Senior Sister find something wrong?"
"She wants me to keep Sanlang and Wulang, saying that she can take care of them both. It's really funny." Ling Xiao shook his head and said.
When Zhen suddenly heard this, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his ears. What? Twelve mothers want to take care of Sanlang, Wulang?
Then Sister Tao will owe a huge favor, and the Twelve Mother will only do it if there is some benefit.
She said: "What? She is so thick-skinned that she actually plans to pick peaches? Senior sister, I am on your side."
As she spoke, she patted her chest, feeling that she and her senior sister were from the same country.
Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said, "I asked Twelve Niangs two things and gave up my original plan."
"She wants it when it comes to the benefits, but balks at the risks."
Zhen suddenly shook his head and said, "Isn't this a matter of asking the horse to run fast and not eating grass? How can there be such a good thing in the world?"
After saying that, she laughed, and Ling Xiao also smiled. At this moment, Zhen suddenly understood Twelve Niangs.
I've seen her conduct herself well before.
But now it seems that she cannot be deeply friends with her.
If something happens, she will definitely run very fast.
The two people talked for a while.
Zhen suddenly went to practice etiquette by himself.
She was somewhat neglectful after leaving the eldest princess.
Ling Xiao doesn't care much about etiquette and prefers to be casual.
And as civilians, they really don’t have any use for those things, so they don’t pay much attention to them.
Fortunately, Zhen Su's foundation is still there, and it's not that Ling Xiao is rude, but her movements are a little more casual.
