After wearing the book, I spoiled the powerful minister

Chapter 214 Dragon Boat Race

The letter Jiang Yanran wrote to Chen Xiuyan was only opened when she returned to Prince Jin's Mansion. It contained ordinary thanks, and then thanked Pan Ling, and mentioned Wen Niang, like a family letter.

Chen Xiuyan used her small brain, thinking about hidden-initial poems, hidden-end poems, poems with split characters, etc., and discovered the hidden mystery.

The second son of heaven pulls Wu, Jiang has voted, I am a concubine, Lu follows each other, and cherishes it.

If it was Chen Xiuyan from before, she might not understand it, but now that she understands the situation, she understands what Jiang Yanran means. The second prince wins over the Wu family, and the Jiang family has become the second prince's man. King Lu also supported the second prince behind his back, hoping that Chen Xiuyan would be careful.

This matter was of great importance, Chen Xiuyan immediately went to find Xi Muqin, as long as Jin Wang was in the mansion, nine times out of ten she would get tired of being with Xi Muqin.

Sure enough, in the main courtyard on the central axis of Prince Jin's Mansion, King Jin and Princess Jin were both there, and it was a little surprising to see Chen Xiuyan come in.

"Are you back?" Xi Muqin knew about Chen Xiuyan's going out, but she didn't expect to come back so soon.

"My daughter-in-law went to Lei's Mansion." Chen Xiuyan didn't hide the fact that she helped Pan Ling, and even said that Pan Ling used most of her property as a thank you gift for helping her reconcile her.

"The Lei Mansion is so courageous?" King Jin was taken aback when he heard that, Taiyuan Mansion was his fief, not to mention that he knew every corner of the vast fief, but he had already let people inquire clearly about the affairs of the officials' homes in the prefecture.

The Lei family is a sixth-rank official in the chief secretary, and their position in the city is not obvious. They will let the eldest son of the family marry the concubine daughter of the Pan family. What they value is the identity and wealth of Pan Ling, the granddaughter of the Wu family.

However, within a few months of entering the door, he thought of a way to kill two people, and the appearance was too ugly.

"This is a letter from Miss Jiang Wu of the Jiangfu in the capital city." Chen Xiuyan gave Jiang Yanran's letter to King Jin, and King Jin saw the key point after reading countless secret letters.

"Jiang's family and Wu's family have hooked up with the second prince." King Jin frowned, "What did that reckless man, King Lu, get involved with? He's half-buried in the ground and still can't settle down. I won't regret it if I catch up with future generations to see him." .”

"I'm writing a letter to the third prince. I haven't paid attention to the situation in the capital for a long time. Recently, the emperor has been watching closely. I'm afraid that I will provoke him too much. I just recognized the eldest son's family." King Jin muttered. .

"I'll take care of the Lei Mansion's affairs, daughter-in-law, you don't have to worry about it."

When the King of Jin spoke, Chen Xiuyan was of course very happy to throw the blame away, "Then Pan Ling's things should be accepted by my father, too."

"No, you just take what's given to you." King Jin waved his hand, and Chen Xiuyan responded with a smile.

"Xiuyan, let's take a look at the clothes. They have just been delivered." After finishing the business, Princess Jin dragged Chen Xiuyan to pick out the clothes.

"You have fair skin and don't choose colors, but it's the first time you participate in a dragon boat race as a royal concubine, so you still have to dress formally. These are your top-ranked clothes, go try them out."

Chen Xiuyan is a little dazzled, the royal blue crown dress is matched with a pearl head mask; the red crown dress is matched with a ruby ​​head face; the crimson purple crown dress is matched with a jade head face...

Chen Xiuyan just tried a set. The inner layer and the outer layer were too cumbersome. The first set was royal blue, and Chen Xiuyan immediately decided to wear another set. Anyway, there is a chance to wear the rest next time.

When Chen Xiuyan returned to her yard, she heard the sound of crying from afar, she was so anxious that she quickened her pace instantly, and when she got to the house, she took it and casually went to the inner room to nurse.

"You little scoundrel, I really can't wait for a moment." Chen Xiuyan patted her fair and tender face casually while feeding, but she was too eager to eat, so she ignored you.

Going to bed after eating, the baby at this time is still easy to take care of, and apart from breastfeeding, Chen Xiuyan really doesn't need to do the rest herself, she has her own nanny and maid to do it.

The fifth day of May, the Dragon Boat Festival.

Chen Xiuyan got up early to get ready, and when she arrived at the main courtyard, Luo Wenser and Luo Mingxin were already there, all well-groomed.

Chen Xiuyan was a little happy. Luo Wenser's marriage with Yan An was settled, and she could go out to the banquet. She had been avoiding her before because of her status as He Li, but now she doesn't need to.

"Auntie, you are so beautiful." Since Luo Mingxin recognized his relatives, they called Chen Xiuyan Uncle and Aunt, and Chu Yu became a younger uncle. After all, seniority cannot be messed up.

"Ming Xin is also very beautiful, and the second sister is also extremely beautiful." Chen Xiuyan praised, and did not forget to praise Xi Muqin, the whole room was full of rainbow farts, very warm and harmonious.

"Prince Jin's Mansion hasn't been this lively for a long time." Xi Muqin was very emotional, "It will be even more lively after Yu'er marries a wife, and I don't know if that child can pick the one he likes this time."

As soon as Chen Xiuyan heard this, she understood that officials and their family members were present during the Dragon Boat Race during the Dragon Boat Festival, and many people took the opportunity to see each other.

"Is there someone my concubine is interested in?" Chen Xiuyan inevitably became gossipy.

"The eldest daughter of the chief envoy's family has just reached the age of Ji this year. She is generous and dignified, and looks great. I think it looks good; the youngest daughter of the envoy's family is fourteen this year. She looks like a small family jade, gentle and easy-going, and many people like it; hey , Jin'an just doesn't have a daughter, otherwise we'll get married directly." Xi Muqin didn't forget to sigh.

"There are also many good girls in the capital. The last time Yu'er went, I also mentioned it to him at that time. Some of them came back and told me that he liked them, but he said that he didn't like any of them, and he didn't know what kind of girl he wanted to marry." Xi Muqin was a little depressed, she was really not a good mother.

The eldest son was lost since he was a child, and the youngest son didn't bother with him. He blamed himself. Now he wants to make up for it, but he always feels separated, and he doesn't have the confidence to ask for it. He looks like a stepmother.

"There are still many official daughters who are of marriageable age. You can take a look today. As long as he likes it, I don't care about family status." Xi Muqin thought very clearly.

The dragon boat race was held on the moat, and the viewing platform was built by the river. The Jinwang family was naturally the tallest and largest.

When Chen Xiuyan followed Xi Muqin and the others to the edge of the moat, many families had already arrived, and they all stood up and greeted Jin Wang's family when they saw them coming.

The platform of Chen Jin'an's family was set up on the right side of Prince Jin's mansion, and Chen Dazhong's family was also there.

At the moment of Si Shi, King Jin stood on the high platform and gave a speech, which was a rhetoric to encourage all families to fight hard, but at the end, the requirement of safety first was emphasized.

There are already eight dragon boats lined up horizontally at the starting line of the river. The dragon boats are of different colors, and the dragon head is the finishing touch.

In the middle position, on the third dragon boat, Chen Xiuyan also saw Chu Yu, but she hadn't noticed a maid coming up with a tray.

Chen Xiuyan heard from Xi Muqin that this is to add color to the No.1 team.

Xi Muqin gave an ingot of gold, and Chen Xiuyan gave Jin Kezi.
