After crossing, I was dragged by the bamboo horse and became a queen

Chapter 303 Questioning
Shangguan left quietly, and the guests who came to see him off naturally would not stay long, and they all took their leave and left.Su Chaoyun also left quickly, but Shangguan Yuan and Su Qingyun stayed in the Marquis of Wuding's mansion, and went back after having lunch with the second wife of Shangguan.

After returning home, Shangguan Yuan seemed a little preoccupied. Su Qingyun thought that Shangguan Jing had entered the palace, and she was sad, so she didn't think much about it. She just comforted his wife and asked her to go back to rest first.

After Shangguan Yuan returned to Su's mansion, she went straight into the bedroom, lay on the bed, staring at the bed curtain in a daze, Lan Rui didn't dare to disturb her.

She just stayed on the bed like this, and didn't get up to redress until dinner time.In fact, she didn't want to go out at all, and she didn't want to see the Su family, but helplessly, as the granddaughter-in-law of this family, she had to go to Mrs. Su's house to serve dinner.

Shangguan Yuan took her maids, Lan Xin and Lan Rui, to Mrs. Su's yard. Just after turning around the stone road in the garden, she saw Su Chaoyun coming from another direction, and she seemed to be going to Mrs. Su's yard as well. .

Shangguan Yuan hesitated for a moment, then took a few steps to catch up, and called Su Chaoyun from behind.

"Brother." Shangguan Yuan said, "But go to grandma's yard?"

"So it's younger siblings. I'm having dinner in my grandmother's yard today." Su Chaoyun turned his head, and while briefly responding to Shangguan Yuan's question, he nodded politely at Shangguan Yuan, with a gentle attitude, but there was no smile on his face. He seemed to be in a bad mood, and he didn't intend to chat with Shangguan Yuan. After answering, he wanted to walk away.

"Brother." Shangguan Yuan took a step forward, and blocked Su Chaoyun's way with his hand: "Can you wait for a moment, I have something to ask face to face."

"What's the matter?" Although Su Chaoyun was a little impatient, seeing Shangguan Yuan's serious expression, he took back the legs he had already stepped forward and stood still.

"Lan Xin, Lan Rui." Shangguan Yuan didn't answer Su Chaoyun immediately, but told the maid behind him: "Stand back, stay away, and don't let others approach."

This move made Su Chaoyun frown directly, he was a little confused, what on earth was Shangguan Yuan going to say, he was so careful, and he had to let the maids watch and keep people from approaching.

The location where Shangguan Yuan and Su Chaoyun are now is actually not too far from Mrs. Su's yard. There are only some low shrubs planted on both sides of the narrow bluestone road, and the view is wide. Someone who approaches should be able to notice it easily. Great place to talk.

She looked around and made sure that no one could hear the conversation between the two, before she said: "Brother, we are all a family, so I will speak directly. I will go to Marquis Wuding's mansion today to send my younger sister into the palace." , Brother, did you notice the peach blossom hairpin on my little sister's head?"

Su Chaoyun was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes became dark instantly, he stared at Shangguan Yuan's eyes, paused for a moment before answering: "What do you want to say, it's okay to say it straight."

"My little sister said that the hairpin was a gift from me to her." Shangguan Yuan stared at Su Chaoyun's eyes without showing any weakness, and said, "But I remember that in the wedding ceremony I prepared for my little sister back then, there was no Hairpin. My husband-in-law entrusted my elder brother to send it to the Huaiyang Palace for me as a gift back then, so I would like to ask how this hairpin of unknown origin was regarded as a gift from me and sent to Huaiyang Palace. In the hands of my little sister."

Shangguan Yuan originally thought that Su Chaoyun would deny it, and she even thought about how she would respond if Su Chaoyun prevaricated her casually.However, Su Chaoyun didn't speak, just looked her in the eyes without saying a word.

"Brother?" Seeing Su Chaoyun like this, Shangguan Yuan couldn't help being furious, and she suppressed her anger and asked again: "This hairpin was given to my little sister by lending my hand, isn't it?"

Su Zhaoyun was silent for a few more seconds, then lowered his eyes, and replied as calmly as possible: "After all, she is a relative. She is your sister and my cousin. If I don't know her and Ji, that's fine. Now that I know, I still pretend not to know." , wouldn’t it be a loss of etiquette among relatives?”

"Really?" Shangguanyuan gritted her teeth and replied, "If you want to give a gift, you can give it generously. Why did you use my name to give my younger sister a hairpin? Brother, give it to a married woman. Hairpin, may I ask what your heart is?"

Shangguan Yuan's questioning left Su Chaoyun speechless.What does it mean to send hairpins, Shangguan Yuan doesn't need to explain to him.According to the customs of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a man would solemnly present a hairpin when he admired a woman very much and wanted to marry her as his wife.

Therefore, according to the customs of the Great Zhou Dynasty, everything can be missing in the dowry gift for marrying a wife, except the hairpin presented by the future husband-in-law.

If the man was unmarried and the woman was unmarried, Su Chaoyun would present a hairpin at Shangguan Jing's Jiji ceremony, which meant a straightforward marriage proposal, and no one in the whole Zhou Dynasty would misunderstand this point.

However, Shangguanjing was already married, and already had a husband when he was nine years old.In the eyes of Shangguan Yuan, Su Chaoyun secretly gave a hairpin to a woman with a husband.

"Brother!" Shangguan Yuan glared at Su Chaoyun angrily: "I don't care what you do, but you don't want to provoke my younger sister. My younger sister is already married and has a very good relationship with her husband. I advise you to let it go as soon as possible. Although I, Shangguan Yuan, have no skills, I am willing to do anything to protect my sister. If you let me know about you..."

"I won't do anything to her." Su Chaoyun raised his head, and directly interrupted Shangguan Yuan's words. His calm expression finally showed a crack, and there was a trace of pain in his eyes: "I know she is the princess, I really do." I know. I just wanted to... just..."

Shangguan Yuan had never seen such a troubled and painful expression on Su Chaoyun's face, but it didn't make her even feel sympathetic.

"You just like her very much, don't you?" Shangguan Yuan smiled coldly at Su Chaoyun: "I know my sister is a national beauty! She is so breathtakingly beautiful that it is unforgettable at first sight. But this is not the reason why you covet her! Remember your dark thoughts, and stay away from my sister in the future, otherwise I will never let you go!"

Su Chaoyun turned around as if evading, and wanted to walk away, but Shangguan Yuan, who was burning with anger, did not intend to let him go.Before he left, Shangguanyuan said again: "Brother, a few days ago, I occasionally heard my grandmother mentioning that she wanted to marry you. She is the niece of Lu Zhaoyi in the palace. It is said that the girl is gentle and virtuous, and she is a good candidate for the clan wife. Hope Brother, please don't disappoint grandma's painstaking efforts this time, she has been looking forward to your marriage for a long time."

　---Here is the dividing line for Sister Yuan--
　　Su Chaoyun missed Shangguan Yuan's married younger sister, so he had the audacity to borrow her hand to give the hairpin. Sister Yuan was so angry that she couldn't help tearing Su Chaoyun apart.
