Chapter 81 Late Night Lobbying
Seeing her crying, Duan Xian patted her on the back lightly, her expression was extremely gentle.

Duan Yi thought about the appearance of Duan Xian being tricked in Guan's ingenious garden and knelt on the ground to burn paper for the deposed prince of the Eastern Palace, and suddenly felt that she suddenly came alive.

She wanted to enter the East Palace, not only because of her competitive heart.

It's just that the tender buds in my heart froze to death in the cold spring before they sprouted.

"Okay, okay, how can I tell you that you are crying? If it gets out, it's a joke." Duan Xian said, pulling off a handkerchief, and wiped Duan Shu, "Let's go back and lie down and talk. Fifth Younger Sister is in poor health, so she can't soak for too long."

As she spoke, she slapped her palms a few times, and the five maids who were waiting outside filed in and changed the clothes for the sisters.

As soon as Duan Yi entered Duan Xian's room, Duan Yi became depressed.

Good guy!In contrast, the small house she lived in was like a doghouse!

There are calligraphy and paintings by famous artists on the wall, night pearls on the head of the bed, that is, the cat lying on one foot in the room, and the body is covered with embroidered brocade satin.

After walking a few steps, what came directly into sight was a huge bed.

Five pillows and five quilts have already been placed on the top.

Duan Xian noticed her gaze and said with a smile, "The bed is too small. I was afraid that five people would sleep crowded, so I asked my mother to arrange the quilts horizontally. I can't sleep. Let's lie down and talk. No matter what, we They were born and died together."

"Especially Fifth Younger Sister, I'll follow you, but you'll step on every trap, go up the mountain of knives, go down into the sea of ​​fire and into the frying pan."

Duan Hao blushed and coughed again.

Duan Xian saw that all the maids and women had gone down, so she walked to the table and picked up a brocade box on top.She quickly climbed onto the bed and waved to the others.

"I prepared gifts for my sisters, everyone together."

Duan Yi saw that she was so polite, her eyes lit up, "Eldest sister gave pearl bracelets before, and this time she gave jade seals, but every time you get married, you give them? If you marry the third highness once a month, how can you no……"

Duan Xian was dumbfounded by what she said, "You still hate that string of pearls! It was agreed earlier, we will not mention hatred tonight, and I won't be too late if you embarrass me tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow when you get married, I will let you off with great mercy. Let's wait for the day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow is an auspicious day for revenge." Duan Yi said, looking into the box, the five small seals were the same size, The pattern is almost exactly the same.

"The previous string of pearls was just a plaything. It was originally a whole piece of jade, but Auntie got three pieces of jade back then and didn't touch it. I think that when our sisters get married, they will take it out to make head jewelry."

"I thought about it and asked someone to make a seal. Hurry up, each of you can take one." Duan Xian said, pushing the box out, but no one made a move.

Duan Yi was about to reach out to take it, but she saw Duan Jing reaching out first, she took out a seal from the box, and said with a smile, "Then I will be cheeky, thank you big sister."

With her at the beginning, it will be easier for the rest of the people to pick up.

Duan Xian put the wooden box back on the table, got on the bed again, and lay down among the quilts in the middle, Duan Shu was lying on her left, Duan Yi was lying on her right, and Duan Hao was with Duan Jing. Sleep on the outermost side.

The lights in the room were turned off, and it became quiet all of a sudden.

It was approaching the fifteenth day, and the moonlight outside was very bright, spilling in through the flower window, as if covering the ground with a layer of silver frost.

Duan Yi opened her eyes and looked at the big red bed curtain, which was embroidered with the pattern of hundreds of sons and grandchildren. A child with braids turned upside down, with round eyes and a standard smile symbolizing good fortune, looked at Like a horror movie.

After all, the sisters who get together are not very close after all, and they really can't say anything heartfelt.

In particular, other people know clearly, but she doesn't know.

But she knew very well in her heart that the five people lying on the bed might have completely different fates in the future.

Women in war are more than rootless duckweeds, the most fragile petals, and they will be crushed into the mud with just a raindrop, and they will never turn over.

Not to mention far away, in the not-too-distant future, she and Duan Xian will be enemies.

As Duan Yi thought about it, she felt a little embarrassed, if it was a peaceful and prosperous world...

Unfortunately not.

Soon there was only the sound of deep and shallow breathing in the room.

Duan Yi closed her eyes slightly, and felt her arm being poked. She turned her head, and saw Duan Xian get up, and made a gesture to her. She quietly rolled over and got off the bed. He picked up the red cloak on the side and wrapped it around himself.

He handed it to Duan Yi again, a royal blue dress with white fluff trim, and beckoned to her.

In the same big house as Duan Yi's small courtyard, the bed and table are different.

Duan Xian also has a small flower hall dedicated to receiving guests, where hot tea is arranged and charcoal basins are lit.

She walked over, turned on the fire in the charcoal basin, and smiled at Duan Yi, "Sir, sit down, since you are a smart person, you should know what I intend to do tonight."

Duan Yi sat down, took a sip from the teacup, stretched out her hand again, and roasted it on the charcoal fire.

"Three points of sincerity, four points of falsehood, two points of bribery, big sister is good at scheming. Before entering the door of the Chen family, she started to be a lobbyist for the third highness... If you want to build a big memorial archway for a good wife, you can Find me, I will find the best craftsman in Jincheng for you."

Duan Xian gave a wry smile when she heard the words, "It's not that hypocritical, that's all, you won't believe me even if I tell you."

"It is indeed His Highness the Third Highness who asked me to lobby my sister, or rather, to lobby Mr. Gu behind my sister." Duan Xian said, picked up the teapot on the table, and filled Duan Yi with water.

"East Palace..." Duan Xian paused, and then said nonchalantly, "The East Palace has been abolished, and the crown prince has fought for the last moment to bet on the treasure. How can there be a neutral minister in this world? What does it mean for me to marry the Third Highness as soon as possible... ..."

"Other sisters can't see clearly, you must know it. This means that the Duan family represented by grandfather, and the Lu family represented by grandmother, both chose to support His Highness as the crown prince. Not only that, there is one thing that my sister may not know."

"Grandfather sent Duan Jing to the Wang family, not because he wanted to bet on the fifth prince at the same time. But now, Wang Zhan and the entire Wang family have changed to the third prince's sect."

Duan Yi rubbed the cup in her hand thoughtfully.

"Isn't Wang Zhan a close friend of the fifth prince? Wang Shilang is also a staunch supporter of the fifth prince."

Duan Xian was overjoyed when she saw her picking up the quarrel, and hurriedly said, "Sister doesn't know, the reason why Wang Zhan was seriously injured in the Garden of Ingenuity is entirely because the Fifth Prince pulled him as a shield."
