Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 45 surrender
The news that Prince Chun's son was incontinent quietly spread at the end of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

Not to mention Princess Chun's complexion, if not for her concentration, she would almost fall off the chair.Princess Yi'an's face was flushed with embarrassment, and she stared at Li Taiwei viciously, in her heart she was certain that if she hadn't drank fifty bowls of herbal tea because of the loss just now, why would her brother have made such a fool of himself!

The mother and daughter of Taiwei Pan's family had different expressions. Mrs. Pan had a sullen face and did not speak to the lady next to her, as if she was not close to strangers.

When Pan Yumei got the news, she kept her face sullen, her ears flushed red, and she got up and left after a while, avoiding everyone's ulterior motives.

Only Pan Yulan acted as if she had nothing to do with herself, and dealt with everyone with a decent smile, as if she had never heard of it.

Li Taiwei lowered her eyes, feeling a little strange in her heart that Prince Chun's son just drank too much tea, how could he be so ugly?
Just thinking about it, Nian Xia came back, her face was not very good, she blessed Li Taiwei, and shook her head secretly.

Li Taiwei guessed that she hadn't found anything, and looked at her calmly. Seeing that she had changed her clothes and even combed her hair again, she was slightly surprised, but it was inconvenient to ask further questions.

It wasn't until the palace banquet was over that Li Taiwei had time to listen to Nian Xia Caocao.

After a while, the servant came to report that the banquet at Xiangye's side was not over yet, and told them to go back to the mansion first, Li Taiwei nodded.Mrs. Bai stood there feeling lost for a while, and then Mrs. Zhao helped her into the carriage.

When they arrived at the mansion, seeing that it was still early, Mrs. Bai took Li Yao and Mrs. Zhao to Yunshuiju to visit Zhaohe.

Today Li Taiwei stole the limelight at the palace banquet, even Li Yao, who has always been reserved, couldn't help but tell Zhaohe about this exquisite chess game!

Li Taiwei had something hidden in his heart, it was not easy to refuse at this time, so he went to his mother's place with Erfang and his party.

Zhaohe was leaning on the couch, watching Jinmao put the baby's underwear in front of her eyes, her eyes were full of softness.Seeing Li Taiwei coming in with Bai's mother and daughter, she hurriedly asked people to sit and pour tea.

Li Yao and Mrs. Zhao stepped forward to meet the ceremony, and their eyes were attracted by the little clothes in Zhao He's hand.

"Ah! These clothes are so pretty!"

Li Yao casually picked up a small white embroidered carp bellyband, the material was soft and smooth, with two red koi embroidered on it, the stitches were tight and vivid.

Mrs. Zhao also looked straight ahead, these small clothes are all exquisite, not only the fabrics are exquisite, but the embroidery is one in a million, absolutely extraordinary.

Seeing that the two couldn't put it down to the baby's little clothes, Zhaohe couldn't help laughing and said:

"These are the old clothes that Aluan wore when she was born. I have nothing to do today, so I asked Grandma Jin to tidy them up and see what else I can use."

"I heard from Mammy that children will look good only when they wear Baijia clothes. At the beginning, we, Aluan, bought all the clothes from the palace, and most of them only passed through a river. I think children will be able to wear them in the future."

After saying that, Zhao He said to Mrs. Zhao with a smile:

"I see that my niece and daughter-in-law like these little clothes very much. When you have a crush in the future, you can just pick some you like."

Zhao immediately blushed, smiled and hid behind Bai.

Covering her smile with her handkerchief, Bai Shi stepped forward and asked Zhao He a few words about her body, and then told her about Li Taiwei's chess game with Prince Chun's son today.

Zhaohe was shocked when he heard that, looked at Li Taiwei, and asked:
"Is it true? When did Ah Luan improve his chess skills to this point?"

"I remember...you used to be inferior to Changping..."

Zhaohe thought it was a fluke to win Mr. Wenxiu last time, but today's move really surprised her.

Sitting across from Showa, Li Taiwei was curiously looking at the clothes she wore when she was young, and raised her eyes when she heard the sound and said:
"When I was in Xiliang, I often went to my little uncle's library, and there were two rooms full of chess records..."

"I often play chess with my little uncle when I have nothing to do. Maybe I have read a lot of chess records, and I have some ideas, and I have achieved a little success."

Zhaohe looked at his daughter's eyes and added a bit of pride, saying:

"The people in Prince Chun's Mansion rely on their status as relatives of the emperor, and they usually have their eyes above the top. If you get angry in front of them today, your father will not stand by and watch."

Li Yao nodded and agreed:
"Why do you need Third Uncle to take action? Third Aunt doesn't know that Prince Chun's son will lose face today..."

Bai cast a sideways glance at Li Yao, Li Yao hurriedly covered her mouth and kept quiet, how could she speak about Ming Yu's incontinence as a girl who has never left the court.

Li Yao's silence made Zhaohe curious, and couldn't help but look at Li Taiwei.Li Taiwei had never been restrained by Zhaohe since she was a child, so she leaned into her ear and told about the embarrassment of Prince Chun's son, which made Zhaohe laugh out loud.

"Unexpectedly... there is such a thing..."

Zhaohe smiled, and the servants who served in the room covered their mouths and laughed too.

Mother Tian came in with the freshly stewed snow swallow, heard the laughter in the room, but did not raise her eyebrows, she gave Li Taiwei a wink.

Li Taiwei put down the little clothes in his hands, and chatted with everyone for a while, Bai got up and said he was going back.

After Li Taiwei personally sent Bai Shi and his party out, Mother Tian found a reason and pulled Li Taiwei to a secluded place, whispering:

"Girl, the fish is just as you expected, it took the bait!"

Li Tai slightly bent the corners of her lips and said:
"After tomorrow, how can she stay in the mansion all the time? It's not uncommon for a dog to jump over the wall..."

"What? What did Biyun tell you?"

Mother Tian looked around and said:
"Following the girl's instructions, the maidservant chatted with Biyun privately when she found an opportunity. A few days ago, she gave her a handful of silver melon seeds. She refused to accept it at first, but later she heard that the girl wanted to flatter her, so she was happy." I happily accepted it."

"In the afternoon today, she secretly came to look for the maidservant, and said that someone brought two boxes of incense to Biaogu Xue's place early in the morning, one in a red lacquered wooden box and the other in a black lacquered wooden box, which looked very precious. appearance."

Mrs. Li frowned slightly:
"Did you say something about the fragrance?"

Mother Tian shook her head:
"Biyun only said that Aunt Xue had put away the incense. She hadn't seen it, and she didn't know what the incense was for."

"However... Cousin Xue mentioned that the incense in the red wooden box will be used tomorrow, and asked Biyun to wait for her orders."

Mrs. Li shivered slightly.

"tomorrow?"

Li Taiwei faintly felt uneasy and asked:
"Is there another box of incense? What is it for?"

Mother Tian said:

"Biyun said that Cousin Xue didn't give orders, so she didn't dare to ask more."

"The servant rewarded her with a piece of silver and told her to report something tomorrow as soon as possible."

Li Taiwei lowered her eyes and thought carefully, tomorrow will coincide with Xiu Mu, and her father will stay in the mansion when he is not in court.

If there is something wrong with Naxiang, it is very likely that this matter came for her father!
Li Taiwei couldn't help thinking of her previous life, Xue Shi climbed into his father's bed, could it be that she used this kind of incense on her father?

Li Taiwei's eyes turned cold, and said:
"No matter who comes to invite me tomorrow, I can't ask my father to go to Hua'an Hall!"
