This is an anti-theft seal, with a 60% anti-theft ratio, supporting the genuine version. Thank you, the little fairies and girls, after walking in, I was inevitably surprised.

The Dingguo Duke's Mansion prepared various precious silk cloths for them, all of which were cut into small pieces for their use. There were also various silk threads of more than thirty colors, gilded awls, large and small embroidery strips of white jade bones, and various exquisite and fashionable patterns, placed neatly and orderly on the table.

There are also small plates of pea yellow, date paste milk cake and ginger-flavored plums.

In this hot summer, in order to avoid the women's heatstroke, the Duke of Ding Guo also specially prepared mung bean soup to cool down. The mung bean soup is even more exquisitely made. The warm and cold soup is served with rose braised, and in a small white jade bowl, it is placed on a large ice bowl. The girl stood by and waited to add soup to the women. Each lady was assigned a girl to serve her. There were more than 20 people in the wide embroidery room.

The women of the Xue family have never seen such a noble family like this! In this way, wouldn’t it cost dozens of taels of silver to just those silk threads and fabrics?

The old lady of Dingguo was helped in by the nanny, followed by Old Lady Xue. When the old lady saw the room, she was stunned and immediately reacted and thanked the old lady: "...I can't bother the old lady!"

Yuan Jin stood among the wife at the end, but in fact she wanted to say, Mrs. Xue doesn't have to thank her. The show in the aristocratic family is just small, maybe the old lady doesn't care about this at all. They are all arranged by the people below according to the rules.

Of course, the old lady is a very wise person. She smiled and said, "No need to thank you. Since I studied here, don't let them down."

The ladies in each room naturally became envious of the wealth of the aristocratic family again. In addition to Wei Xianlan, the lady of the Wei family, she was of a good background and had a much higher horizon than the Xue family. After looking at the fine and luxurious embroidery room, she only turned her eyes to Yuan Jin and snorted softly: "With your brother, can you be selected?"

Because of the last incident, the two formed a bond.

Yuan Jin just pretended that he didn't hear it, so there was no need to pay attention to her at this time.

At this time, the old lady smiled and asked all the ladies to sit down: "Today, Duke Ding returned to Taiyuan, and happened to meet the boys. I had some time to see you learn embroidery. There is no need to be restrained, you just learn from you."

It turned out that Duke Ding was back today!

The ladies could not help but whisper. Who in Taiyuan Prefecture would not know about this Duke Dingguo. It’s just that Duke Dingguo has been in Xuanfu, so it’s rare to come back once. Could it be that he came back specially to choose a prince?

The old lady and Duke Ding Guo, the one who can really make a decision is of course Duke Ding Guo.

The ladies sat down after they divided the order. The embroidery lady An, the embroidery lady who taught Su Xiu, began to tell the ladies about Su Xiu. The ladies thought about the Dingguo Mansion and the Marquis of Wei Yong, naturally they were full of energy and concentration. They tried hard to stand up straight, hoping to show their best side to the old lady, except for Yuanzhu who was sleepy and napping, and Yuan Jin, who was not interested in Nu Hong and was only good at fighting power.

It’s not that Yuan Jin is not serious. She is really not good at Nu Hong, and even to the point where she feels a headache after hearing too much. However, after this morning when the girls were so focused, the girls were in a state of depressed spirit. When the nanny said she could go to the flower hall next to her to have tea and rest, she was relieved.

However, Yuanzhu woke up on time at this time and asked Yuan Jin: "Sister Four, have you finally finished teaching?"

Yuan Jin raised his hand and stuffed a piece of pea yellow into her little mouth: "My grandmother glared at you a few times just now, and when she went back carefully, she was scolded by your mother."

"I'm not afraid." Yuanzhu said while chewing pea yellow, "I can't miss a few words of cursing, so I'll just say it! I'm so young, it's just when I need to sleep."

No matter how hard heals such a stingy person is, it is useless. Although Yuan Jin didn't listen, he still remained awake and felt that he was still better than Yuanzhu. She also gave herself a cup of tea. Thinking that Wen Yu saw Duke Ding today, he didn't know whether it would be smooth or not, but he saw Wei Xianlan, the lady of the Wei family, stood up and walked to the old lady and Mrs. Xue to salute.

"Grandma, I have something I want to tell you, but I don't know if it should be said or not?"

Several ladies were attracted by her sudden words and looked at her.

The old lady didn't know what she wanted to say, so she nodded naturally: "You'll just say it."

Wei Xianlan said: "Since my grandmother is willing, I will say it directly. Dingguo Duke's mansion chose a lady who is virtuous and virtuous, and the background is naturally not important. But if this person does not adhere to etiquette, does not know the etiquette, is the politeness, integrity and shame of the girl's family, and does not know whether this person can be selected? I am not saying it for myself, I am also saying it for all sisters. If there are flaws in character, I still have to fight with all sisters, wouldn't it be unfair?"

The old lady didn't expect Wei Xianlan to say this, and her smile was a little stiff: "I don't know who you are talking about?"

When Yuan Jin heard this, he silently pinched the teacup tightly.

"But it's not someone else, it's this Fourth Lady Xue!" Wei Xianlan turned around and looked at Yuan Jin.

Old Mrs. Xue's expression changed slightly, and the old lady put down the teacup: "Xianlan cannot speak casually. Do you say this to Mrs. Xue, is there any evidence?"

"Of course I have it!" Wei Xianlan continued, "She is the one who liked my younger brother Wei Heng before and was entangled with him. If my grandmother didn't believe it, she could ask my younger brother's entourage to see if this Si Lady Xue had been entangled with my younger brother! Marriage is the words of the matchmaker of her parents' order. Before the girl's family was married, she should have adhered to her duties. With this Si Lady Xue, it is naturally not necessary to be a wife with my younger brother, so she thought of these despicable means and wanted to confuse my younger brother liked her, so she could marry into the Wei family! How could such a person be ungrateful, righteous and shameless?"

Old Mrs. Xue obviously didn't know that Xue Yuanjin still had this part. Although she didn't know whether it was true or not, her face suddenly became bad. The other ladies of the Xue family naturally knew that Xue Yuanjin had admired Wei Heng, but they were not clear about whether Yuan Jin had really bothered Wei Heng. There was still obvious difference between the two. If they just admired her, then it would be fine. Any lady didn't have a crush on her. If she really pestered the man and wanted to marry into the Wei family through other means, then the girl's reputation would be bad.

But they didn't dare to speak at this time, and naturally they didn't know much about helping Xue Yuanjin. If they wanted to harm her, such things that involved their daughter's reputation might involve the sisters next to the Xue family if they were not careful, so it would be better to watch the fire from the other side of the river.

Old Mrs. Xue cleared her throat and said, "Although our Xue family is not as good as the Wei family, the child's rules and education are strict. Don't worry, Mrs. Wei, if Yuan Jin really did something extraordinary, I will naturally punish her. If I didn't do it, you can't just say it." She turned to Yuan Jin and asked, "Si Meitu, have you told my grandmother and the old lady now that you have ever bothered Master Wei San?"

When Wei Xianlan talked about this, Yuan Jin felt nervous at first. Although she knew that the Fourth Lady Xue liked Wei Heng, she also learned from others that she did not know whether the Fourth Lady had done something extraordinary.

Naturally, she calmed down the next moment. A girl like Madam Xue Si was born in a polite house and never had any inappropriate thoughts about her future. Can she really do something to bother Wei Heng? If she had really been entangled and where was she entangled, wouldn't there be no girl around her? And if she entangled, Wei Xianlan wouldn't speak verbally here, but would have taken out her certificate.

However, it doesn't matter whether Wei Xianlan distorts the facts. The key to this matter is that even though she has never done anything entangled, the fact that she likes Wei Heng before is true and cannot be denied. Wei Xianlan's words are three points true and seven points false, but they will really damage her reputation. Especially, they will leave a bad impression on the old lady, which is her purpose!

Yuan Jin had already thought about it in his heart, stood up and walked to the old lady, saluted and said, "I used to like Young Master Wei San before."

Old Mrs. Xue's face almost became ugly. "You have done this seriously?"

This inconspicuous little girl in the fourth room really did such a shameless thing?

"Grandma, the old lady listens to my clear statement. Although I like Master Wei San, I have only been admiring Master Wei San, and I have never done anything entangled. I never wanted to marry into the Wei family. Marry as a wife and become a concubine. Miss Wei also said just now that your family would never allow Master Wei San to marry me. Since I knew Master Wei San would not marry me, how could I do such a humiliation? Wouldn't that be too stupid? I think I am not stupid enough to what Miss Wei said." Yuan Jin said slowly clearly. Not to mention whether it is true, just her attitude of being slow and slow, advancing and retreating in moderation made people convinced her.

How could such a person do such a stupid thing?

After listening to Yuan Jin's words, Old Mrs. Xue's expression obviously improved a lot.

Wei Xianlan was caught by her and forced to calm down: "You can deny what you have done? You told my brother that you like him and don't care about reputation, so you will marry into my family as a concubine. Isn't this trick my brother to marry you? Don't you want to deny it!"

Yuan Jin laughed even more and more: "Ms. Wei's words are a bit confusing? I just said that I am obsessed with your brother for glory and wealth. Now I am going to follow him regardless of my status. What kind of speech is this? Miss Wei must think about it before saying it, so as not to make a joke. Besides, Miss Wei's words about my obsessed with your brother are nothing more than to destroy my reputation. I want to ask Miss Wei, if you don't have a certificate and slander others, is it your own illusion? You just said that you want to ask your brother's servant, but your servant is naturally directing you. Wouldn't you say whatever you ask him to say?"

Yuan Jin's light words not only showed his innocence, but also defeated Wei Xianlan's army!

The old lady's face was naturally a little stagnant, and she asked Wei Xianlan again: "In addition to your brother's servant, are there anyone else in your certificate?"

Wei Xianlan couldn't come up with other evidence, her face turned red and her tone was a little flustered: "But you liked my brother and even expressed your thoughts to him. Do you dare to say no? The girl's family must abide by her duties. What else can you do if you don't know shame? Even if I don't have other certificates, it is true that you try to cling to my brother for the sake of wealth and honor!"

Old Mrs. Xue almost couldn't stand it anymore.

Only Wei Xianlan, a person who has been spoiled and spoiled since childhood, can do such stupid things as Wei Xianlan.

She said this and was at the end of her strength, so Yuan Jin naturally smiled but didn't say anything.

"What's wrong? It's so lively inside." At this moment, a voice came from outside, and a thin man wearing a purple-red dark cloud pattern robe and jade leather belt walked in. His skin was dark and he must have been on the frontier all year round. Walking behind him was Pei Ziqing, who had a calm face and a handsome face. Many guards stood outside the flower hall and did not come in, but the scene was not small at all.

Yuan Jin immediately guessed that with Pei Ziqing following him, the person who spoke should be Duke Ding.

But why did I meet Pei Ziqing again?

She lowered her eyelids slightly and looked at the teacup with bean-green ice cracks on the old lady's table.

She only hoped that Pei Ziqing had not heard the words just now. It was not that she was afraid of embarrassing, but that Pei Ziqing was too familiar with her words. Last time she met only after one meeting, Pei Ziqing became confused about her. If she heard her long speech, wouldn’t she be more familiar with her! After all, she had always spoken to him like this a long time ago.

"It's nothing, they're just gossiping about their girls." The old lady stood up with a smile, "You've seen all boys? What do you think?"

"There are still a few materials to make." said Ding Guogong, "I'm here to tell you that Lord Pei and I are going to Chongshan Temple. You have to take care of the matter at home."

"Just go, I'll wake up at home." The old lady nodded and smiled at Pei Ziqing, "I can't treat Lord Pei well. I'm afraid I'll go back to Beijing soon?"

Pei Ziqing smiled and said she didn't care, but then looked at Xue Yuanjin: "Just now, it seems you were talking?"

Did he really hear it?

Xue Yuanjin slowly looked up and smiled, "Mr. Pei is so powerful."

Naturally, Duke Ding and others did not expect Pei Ziqing to suddenly talk to a little girl, and looked at Xue Yuanjin unexpectedly.

"Last time I saw you talking to Wei Heng. Later, I heard him say that you seem to admire him?" Pei Ziqing asked again.

"Mr. Pei is too worried. Last time, it was just Mr. Wei San talking to me." Yuan Jin said. When others heard Pei Ziqing's words, they would feel that she was pestering Wei Heng and talking. But that day, Wei Heng was obviously self-indulgent and wanted to come to warn her for a few words. Naturally, he couldn't let him turn black and white!

Pei Ziqing narrowed his eyes slightly and said lightly: "My nephew is arrogant and is afraid that he will not look down on the noble daughter of aristocratic families."

After saying this, he left with Duke Ding. But the meaning of his words was simply obvious.

The remaining people in the flower hall looked a little complicated when they looked at Xue Yuanjin. Xue Yuanjin's face was very bad. She obviously had to turn defeat into victory. Why did Pei Ziqing come out to disrupt the situation? Now I am afraid that no matter whether she has been bothered by Wei Heng or not, she really can't wash away her reputation as a family!

Wei Xianlan smiled almost immediately: "Since Lord Pei has spoken, I believe the fourth lady should still pay attention to her words and deeds in the future."

The old lady glanced at Yuan Jin.

The old lady couldn't tell the depth, and the impact of this incident on her was hard to say. But for Mrs. Xue, the impact was very obvious. Even though Xue Yuanjin had never done anything out of the ordinary, she liked Weiheng and was discovered, which really made her feel aggrieved. She felt that this common house was indeed not as obsessed as the one who came out of the legitimate house. She inevitably became a little cold to Yuanjin.

"Don't drink tea, ladies, let's go with me to eat vegetarian food." The old lady said, and then the group went to the dining room.

Yuan Jin fell behind and took a deep breath.

*

On the corridor of Chongshan Temple, Duke Dingguo and Pei Ziqing were walking one after another with people.

Duke Ding thought about the situation just now and was a little curious and said to Pei Ziqing: "Why did you notice a little girl today?"

Didn't he know Pei Ziqing yet? This man was the most capable person under the command of the Danyang County Lord. Later, he betrayed and followed Prince Jing and became the commander of the Jinyiwei. His daily life was extremely boring. He was neither rich nor greedy, and he asked those who wanted to please, flatter him, and bribe him to find a way. But he suddenly talked to the little girl. The little girl was not old and was still young, but she looked really good. He was really rude to talk to others. He was considered to have harmed others. Could it be that he had touched the hearts of ordinary people?

Pei Ziqing said lightly: "There is nothing else, it's just like an old friend."

"Who do you look like?" Duke Ding wanted to ask the truth, his tone was meaningful, "If you really like it, it would be better for me to do this favor..."

Pei Ziqing immediately said: "How old is she!"

Duke Ding said casually: "Mr. Pei, why do you think you have worked so hard to finally achieve such a powerful position now?"

Pei Ziqing also understood what he meant. When they reached their current status, they were not just to do whatever they wanted and get whatever they wanted. Regardless of worldly constraints, they could only follow their own desires. But he was just silent.

That person is his inner demon, his guidance, his longing...his sin.

Too complicated to speak and touch.

"Okay, I'm going to see Your Highness soon, so don't say that." Pei Ziqing reminded him.

In front of him was the villa where His Highness lived. When they walked to the corridor, they saw a line of guards surrounding the villa, so they could not even fly into it.

Duke Ding felt a little strange: "Why is this guard stricter than the previous few days?"

Of course, the guards guarding the door recognized the two of them and took them away and let them in. However, their guards could only stay outside.

His Highness Jing has this hobby. When he returned to Taiyuan Mansion, he did not live in his Prince Jing Mansion, but instead liked to live in the temple. He felt that Prince Jing Mansion was too big and too complicated, and it was not as purity as living in the temple.
To be continued...
