the first lady

Chapter 19

"Yan, do you really want to see my jokes so much?" Feng Qing said helplessly. Although Zongzheng Yan was not satisfied with the details of his and Qiao Ling'er's divorce, he didn't mean to blame him. It's just a joke.

Zongzhengyan raised his eyebrows and said, "It's not bad to be able to see the first son's jokes about you, Yu, don't you think so?"

The nominated Helian Feiyu immediately nodded, playful: "Not bad!" The number one son in the world is the incarnation of a perfect man, and it is not easy to see his jokes.

"It seems that I am really unattractive?" Feng Qing drank alcohol with a smile that was not a smile, but the smile that overflowed from the corner of his lips was so enchanting.

The marriage of the talented and beautiful prime minister Zongzheng Yi made many women cry and their eyes were red. Now that it is better, there is another woman who wants to marry into Zongzheng's family and become Zongzhengyi's wife. If it is transferred to another person, it is Fengqing.

Feng Qing didn't pay attention to the shy and timid gazes of the women around him, if he noticed by chance, he would just nod politely without expressing too much expression.

However, Qiao Ling'er's appearance in the gazebo in the backyard of Qiao's mansion could not help appearing in her mind, she was so chic and composed, like an elegant white orchid, and like a rose with thorns, she wanted to get close, but she had to beware of being stabbed.

It's a pity that he didn't have more time to study her "transformation".

"By the way, big brother, you won't leave so early when you come back this time, right?" Zong Zhengyan asked while pouring wine for Zong Zhengye while drinking and talking.

"The south is relatively stable now, and I can stay for about ten days." Zong Zhengye replied.

"That's good. Let's find a place to have a drink after the second brother's bridal chamber is finished tomorrow." Zong Zhengyan was quite interested in his two brothers.

"Second brother doesn't know how to drink, so you should drink less tomorrow." Zong Zhengye glanced at Zong Zheng Yi who was toasting, and showed a faint smile.

As if in agreement, Zong Zhengyi raised his head and met Zong Zhengye's gaze, and the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened.As everyone knows, just this charming smile ignited the fighting spirit of those women who were about to give up.

So what if he married a wife?With the position of the main wife gone, wouldn't there be another position for the concubine?
Qiao Ling'er in the bridal chamber was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back. How many times she wanted to lift the veil on her head and find something to fill her stomach, but both Ningxiang and Lanfeng were stubborn. Human beings have deep-rooted thoughts and are unwilling to make any concessions.

In fact, she can completely disregard Ningxiang and Lanfeng, but she knows that now that she is in this position, how many pairs of eyes are standing outside the door staring, and no clues can fall into the eyes of those who are peeping outside. .

Finally, after a long wait, it was dark and there were palm lights in the room.Outside, there was also the sound of steps.

With a sound of "squeak", the mahogany door was pushed open, Ning Xiang and Lan Feng couldn't help being startled, when they saw the man in the red robe, their hearts suddenly stopped beating.

Zongzheng Yi's eyebrows are very good-looking, unlike Feng Qing's seemingly indistinct laziness and high-profile brows, he only has a natural gentle temperament like a banishing fairy.

If Fengqing is gold exuding dazzling golden light, then Zongzhengyi is a gem hidden under the snow. Although the light is restrained and hidden, if you push the snow away, you will see the purest gem.

"Uncle!" Ning Xiang and Lan Feng finally came back to their senses after a brief daze, and a suspicious red glow appeared on their faces.

"En!" Zong Zhengyi nodded and walked towards them with a gentle smile on his face.

The hearts of Ningxiang and Lanfeng jumped again, losing the rhythm they should have.

"Uncle, let's go down first." Ning Xiang Fushen said, blushing and lowering her head.

"Okay, you have worked hard!" Zongzheng Yi smiled lightly, his voice was like the warm wind in March, blowing away the cold of winter.

Qiao Ling'er, who was under her hipa, was startled when she heard this warm voice. This voice... seems to have been heard somewhere...

With Zong Zhengyi's smile, Ning Xiang blushed again without confidence, blessed her body with Lan Feng and went out, closing the door gently.

Qiao Linger, who had always been calm, felt unprecedentedly tense at this moment. Hearing the inconspicuous sound of breathing, mixed with the sound of her heart beating "thump-thump", it made her not know what to think for a while.

Although she was already 22 years old in her previous life, she never wasted time on things like dating, let alone getting married. Now, she only pays homage to the world because of "one obeisance to the heaven and earth, two obeisances to the high hall, and couples obeisance to each other." "These three sentences became a man's wife, the wife of a man who was completely unfamiliar to her.

She won't let mermaid go, so if he wants to do something, she won't sit still!
Zongzheng Yi looked at the woman sitting on the bed, a slight melancholy appeared on his handsome and gentle face.

"I'm sorry, Miss Qiao." Zong Zhengyi said softly, apologizing sincerely.He naturally knew that there were people waiting outside now, waiting for them to report to their masters after they made any movement.

Qiao Ling'er was taken aback when she heard that, he was apologizing to her?Why?And his voice, why does it seem familiar?
"Miss Qiao, I'm really sorry that I couldn't prevent the emperor from granting the marriage. The Qiao family was forced to choose a position and put you in danger." Zong Zhengyi said slowly, he regretted it, why didn't he notice it at the beginning Only by the intention of Emperor Wu will everything happen today.

The sincere apology and the bewitching gentle voice made Qiao Linger relax her guard. She didn't feel any threat from him, only a faint smell of medicine.

The smell of medicine, that's right, it was the smell she smelled when she sneaked into the Zong government and broke into a room.

It's that person!

Qiao Linger is a thief, she not only practices her hands, feet and eyes, but often an excellent thief also has an excellent sense of smell, so her sensitivity to smell is better than ordinary people.

According to the rumors, the Fourth Miss of the Qiao Mansion is quiet and virtuous. She lives in seclusion and never pays attention to other things. If she doesn't know her situation, he will not force her to instill it.He won't force her. His responsibility now is to protect her and protect the Qiao family from any harm. As for the others...

When Zong Zhengyi was about to tell her that she could have absolute freedom, Qiao Ling'er moved, and pointed to Xipa, who had been covering her head and covering her face, with the purpose of letting him push it away.

After getting married, the bride must follow the rules, not to speak, not to pick up the hipa by herself, otherwise it will be regarded as unlucky, and she followed these rules.In addition to the previous speech.

Zong Zhengyi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Sorry, Miss Qiao, I was negligent." Then he took the scale from the side, took a step forward, and stretched it under Xipa.

Qiao Ling'er suddenly held her breath, the gentle voice that day, after she returned to Qiao's mansion, she also thought about what kind of man a man with such a voice would be, but she didn't expect that now there would be a chance to meet for real. But in this way...

The too bright candlelight made Qiao Linger's eyes unbearable for a while, she squinted subconsciously, and then continued to hold her breath and look at the man standing in front of her.

It’s okay if you don’t look at it, Qiao Ling’er’s mind went blank when she saw it——

"It's you?" Thanks to her photographic memory, she saw at a glance that the person in front of her was the man in white that she and Ningxiang saw on the way back to Qiao's mansion on the first day of June. His robes were spotless and white at that time , was very different from the bright red wedding gown at this time, but the bright red color on his body was still elegant.

Zong Zhengyi couldn't help being stunned when he saw the appearance of the woman under Xipa, it turned out to be her?

"You are the current prime minister, Zong Zhengyi?" Qiao Ling'er finally recovered her voice after a long while, questioning the identity of the man in white that had been etched into her mind that day.

"Next." Zong Zhengyi also quickly sorted out his thoughts, but he had to admit that when he saw her face, he was more surprised than sorry.Although it wasn't his fault.

Zhong Zhengyi's indifference made Qiao Ling'er feel a little embarrassed, and her face was inexplicably hot.That day when she sneaked into the Zong government, she saw him about to take a bath. Although the light was not very bright at that time, she also saw his overly fair breasts.

Qiao Ling'er didn't speak, and neither did Zong Zhengyi, as if he was thinking about it, but he didn't know how to speak.

"You..." "You..." Either neither of them spoke, or both of them spoke at the same time, and the result was that both of them were silent here at the same time.

Zong Zhengyi and Qiao Linger looked at each other, and then both laughed.Zong Zhengyi smiled warmly, while Qiao Ling'er smiled a bit out of style for a lady.

Zong Zhengyi had never met Qiao Ling'er before, but he had only heard about her. He described her as gentle and graceful, stunningly beautiful, and at the same time cowardly, he would not even raise his head when there were people around.That day on the street, I saw her lift her foot up without a trace and trip Chen Guojiu's nephew, she was as calm as the wind, the slyness in her eyes was not the cowardice in the rumors, and the haughty temperament was not possessed by ordinary weak daughters.

"The girl is really Miss Qiao Si?" Zong Zhengyi knew it was true, but still asked.

"Why, you don't believe it?" Qiao Ling'er raised her eyebrows slightly.

"...That's not the case." Zong Zhengyi shook his head.

"It is rumored that Miss Qiao Si is gentle and virtuous, cowardly and timid, so the prime minister has doubts when he sees the little girl at this time?" Qiao Ling'er took Zong Zhengyi's words, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.

Hearing this, Zong Zhengyi's mouth twitched into a deadly charming smile, and said: "Rumors are rumors after all, seeing is believing, hearing is believing!" Now that she is standing here in real life, he believes his eyes even more.
