first princess

Chapter 138 The Reunion (4)
Compared with the flirting young couple, others are not so lucky.

Leng Youru was reclining on the couch of Concubine Sixi, which was covered with autumn fragrance embroidered with begonias, holding a bird-patterned silver hand stove in her hand, with a sick look on her face. If she was pretending to be sick a few days ago, she was really sick this time.

But the story of the wolf is coming tells us that there were too many lies in the early stage, and even if the truth came, no one would pay attention to it.

Qiao's mother entered the bedroom with a gray face, and said with a distressed expression: "My lord... My lord wants you to recover from your illness. He is a little busy." What are you busy with?Busy teaching Zhao Yun to write, paint and paste couplets!
Once a person crossed the bottom line, she no longer has a bottom line.

If Leng Youru had stood firm from the beginning and never took the first step to bow to Zhuge Liuyun, perhaps now, she still retained her original arrogance.

Leng Youru's knuckles holding the bird-patterned silver hand stove turned pale: "What date is it today?"

"26."

Leng Youru's eyes flashed, as if she had made some kind of decision: "I see."

In the twelfth lunar month, there are many good days and many happy events. Not only the king of An County successfully married Qiao Hui, but also Xun Feng of Pingnan Houfu also married Shui Lingxi back home. The difference is that Shui Lingxi is not qualified to go through the front door. The sedan chair is carried in through the side door.

Zhi Fan flicked the charcoal fire in the stove, and said with a happy face: "Second young mistress looks very quiet, I hope she is a good person to get along with." Putting it in my heart, the masters next to me are three points of grudge, two points of defense, and one point of alienation. Therefore, God bless the second young lady to be kind-hearted and kind, and most importantly, don't make trouble for the eldest lady!

Shui Linglong held Tang Pozi tightly in her hand, and the corners of her lips raised slightly: "Look at it, it's really quiet!"

In the previous life, there was no war in Kashgar this year, King An did not make military achievements, the second wife moved to the capital, and Qiao Hui and Prince An got married. Who is Qiao Hui?She had no impression of Qiao Hui at all.

Concentrating her thoughts, Shui Linglong asked: "Are you sure that matter is settled?"

Zhi Fan couldn't hide a smile and said: "It's done, that contractor happens to be a regular customer in the restaurant, Uncle Zhang treats him to a lot of food and drinks for free, and the two of them call each other brothers, so things won't go wrong! Second Miss over there..."

At this point, Zhi Fan covered her mouth with a veil, "Mother Du said that the second young lady refused to marry her life and death, she cried and made trouble in the house and hanged herself, and the young master waited at the door for a quarter of an hour and she still didn't come out. In the end, the young master simply found a bowl of ecstasy soup and poured it down for her, and then carried her into the sedan chair!"

Shui Linglong suddenly found it funny. In her previous life, Shui Lingxi did not hesitate to be a mother for Xun Feng for two months in order to climb onto Xun Feng's bed. Taking advantage of his afternoon nap, he hooked up with Xun Feng who came back from the next court.In this life, she actually... refuses to marry anyway?

There is nothing funnier than this!
Shui Linglong laughed until her stomach ached, at this moment, Ye Mao opened the curtain and came in: "Miss, something happened to Miss Si!"

In the Xianglan courtyard, Zhuge Shu lay in Qiao Hui's arms and wailed loudly: "So many...so many evil spirits! They...they want to catch me...what should I do? Woooo...I'm so scared...sister-in-law...I'm so scared..."

Qiao Hui had a small round face, her complexion was not white but very delicate, with curved willow leaf eyebrows and blue phoenix eyes, she looked very gentle and beautiful.On the first day of her marriage, before serving tea to the elders or recognizing relatives, my sister-in-law suddenly had a nightmare in the middle of the night, and her husband was very anxious. As a wife, she should be considerate of her husband and come to visit together.

King An Jun stood aside, frowning, but he didn't know what to do.Since the fourth sister accidentally pushed Miss Lin into the water, causing Miss Lin to be scalded to death, she had nightmares from time to time. Taking medicine or asking Taoist priests to exorcise evil spirits didn't work, and he or her mother had to stay with her all night.

Qiao Hui gently stroked Zhuge Shu's shoulder, and said softly: "Shu'er, my sister-in-law looked at it, but there is nothing there. You are having a nightmare, it is not true."

Zhuge Shu didn't seem to believe it, and cried harder: "Second brother! Sister-in-law doesn't believe it! Second brother, I'm afraid...I'm really afraid..."

Crying and crying, she stretched out her arms towards King An as usual. Qiao Hui was taken aback, a little embarrassed. King An subconsciously planned to hug her, but was stopped by Zhen Shi with a wave of his arms: "If there is me here That's enough, you and Xiaohui go back first."

How could such a beautiful wedding night be ruined?
King An Jun looked at Zhuge Shu, then at the quiet and elegant Qiao Hui, and sighed, "Xiaohui, let's go."

Qiao Hui nodded and wanted to get up and leave.

Zhuge Shu's pupils shrank, she hugged Qiao Hui tightly, and burst into tears: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo I want sister-in-law..."

...

Shui Linglong put Tang Po down and looked at Ye Mao in surprise: "What happened to Fourth Miss?"

Ye Mao reported the news truthfully: "I had a nightmare and cried so much that it was useless to persuade her. The Second Young Mistress had a way of coaxing the Fourth Miss to be quiet. Tonight, the Second Young Mistress will accompany the Fourth Miss. sleep."

Shui Linglong raised her eyebrows suspiciously, on the wedding night, the couple did not consummate their marriage!
absurd!

It is not easy for the first wife to intervene in the matter of the second room. The old lady loves her granddaughter and feels that Zhuge Shu's behavior is inappropriate but she doesn't criticize anything. However, Mrs. Zhen couldn't sit still the next day, and imitated Shui Minyu's method. A bowl of ecstasy soup was poured down by Zhuge Shu. On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, King An and Qiao Hui finally got married.

New Year's Eve, family reunion, in Tian'anju's Nuan Pavilion, a large family sat down around a round table with the old matriarch and Zhuge Liuyun, the old matriarch on Zhuge Liuyun's right, and Leng Youru on the left , Zhuge Yu, Shui Linglong, Zhuge Shu, Qiao Hui, King An, Zhen Shi, Zhen Shi is next to the old lady.

This was the busiest year in the history of the Zhenbei Palace. Usually there were only Zhuge Liuyun, Leng Youru, Zhuge Xi and Zhuge Yu. This time, the table was crowded with people old and young, and it was very lively.

Qiao Hui gracefully walked to Shui Linglong's side, and said kindly, "Sister-in-law."

Shui Linglong's first impression of this younger sibling was pretty good. Dong Jialin has the gentleness and graciousness that Dong Jialin doesn't have, and she also has the elegance that Dong Jialin doesn't.Shui Linglong smiled and said: "Second brother and sister are tired, drink more medicinal soup later."

Qiao Hui instinctively wanted to say, "I didn't do anything, so I'm not tired." It was only on the verge of her words that she realized that Shui Linglong was referring to the belated bridal chamber last night. Will make me happy!"

Mrs. Zhen smiled and said: "Oh, what are the two sisters-in-law talking about? They laughed so hard that they couldn't see their eyes!"

Qiao Hui looked at Shui Linglong and gave her the right to speak.

Shui Linglong smiled slightly: "Speak something in a whisper, don't tell Second Aunt!"

Seeing that the two granddaughters-in-law get along well, the old lady is also full of joy.

The New Year's Eve dinner consists of [-] meat dishes, [-] vegetarian dishes, [-] sweet soups and [-] nourishing herbal soups. These dishes are carefully selected from hundreds of dishes, but there must be one of them that everyone likes on weekdays. Therefore, everyone was quite satisfied with the meal.

The old matriarch's eyes were narrowed into two slits: "I was busy in the dining room when I was not well, thank you for your hard work!" He handed the sweet soup served to him by the maid to Leng Youru.

Leng Youru stood up, took it with both hands, said respectfully and softly: "The Gu family is my duty, no hard work."

Everyone couldn't help being slightly stunned, shouldn't Leng Youru say something like "Well, thank you for your compliment" with a cold face?

The old matriarch's eyes lit up, and she gave Leng Youru another candy corn that she was hiding in her sleeve and planned to eat one by herself, and gave Linglong a piece.

Leng Youru's eyes trembled, and then raised the corners of her lips: "Thank you, mother."

Zhuge Liuyun looked sideways at Leng Youru, who was pale and sweaty on his forehead, and finally said, "Sit down and drink some hot soup."

Shui Linglong ate a chopstick dish, her puzzled eyes swept over the slightly tired Leng Youru, she was wearing a short jacket with lavender pattern and gold thread, two purple and gold magnolia hairpins on her hair bun, and earrings of the same color The earrings, and the amethyst on the Yingluo, are shining brightly. If she used to give people a sense of fairy spirit, tonight she is so charming that she is a bit like the spirit coming out of the foggy forest.

Leng Youru intends to take the initiative to settle the suspicion with Zhuge Liuyun?

After the New Year's Eve dinner, the old lady took Zhen Shi, Qiao Hui and Zhuge Shu to play leaf cards for a while, everyone let her go, and she won a lot of gold, half of Shui Linglong and half of Qiao Hui, on the surface they were treated equally, but When Shui Linglong left Tian'anju, the old lady reluctantly gave up her love and secretly stuffed the corn candy she planned to keep into Shui Linglong's hands.

Leng Youru performed well tonight, Zhuge Liuyun was slightly moved, and let Leng Youru push the wheelchair and accompany her back to the Qingyou Courtyard: "Rest early, I will pick you up tomorrow morning to kowtow to your mother for New Year greetings."

Leng Youru clenched her plain hand, a hint of surprise flashed in her icy eyes at a very fast speed, then she bent her knees and said softly: "My lord is safe."

Zhuge Liuyun let out a "huh" and pushed the wheelchair away from the spot.

When Zhuge Liuyun turned the corner and disappeared, Leng Youru began to gasp for breath, and the anger burned from the dantian to the bottom of the eyes in an instant!
Mother Qiao stepped forward and said, "Princess, don't get angry. The prince is willing to send you back to the yard and promises to pick you up tomorrow to pay his respects to the old lady. This is already a big step!"

Leng Youru's nails were deeply inserted into the palm of her hand, blood flowed out little by little, staining her white uppers red, but she couldn't say a word!
Qiao's mother's eyes turned, and a flash of inspiration flashed, she said: "Princess, don't miss this opportunity! The prince didn't bring Uncle Yu with you, so he was giving you a chance! Although you showed your favor to the old lady, you never came back again! Didn’t resolve the misunderstanding with the prince! Since he is the prince, he has to be begged and coaxed! If you don’t try to win back the prince’s heart, the prince may be completely fascinated by Zhao Yun! Thinking about your persistence and forbearance for so many years, After suffering so much, don't you still want to part with this face?"

Leng Youru closed her eyes and shook her whole body several times, as if it was a breath, and it seemed as if a century had passed. Suddenly, she opened her eyes, stepped forward to catch up with Zhuge Liuyun, and embraced Zhuge Liuyun from behind. Hold him, tears streaming down his head...

But it was said that after Zhuge Yu brought Shui Linglong back to Mohe Courtyard, he didn't go directly into the bedroom, but went to the study instead.

The study is a "military important place", and the secret room is its necessary equipment, and the study here is no exception.Zhuge Yu held Shui Linglong's hand, pressed the switch next to the bookshelf, and the bookshelf moved to the right, revealing a dark space. In this life, Shui Linglong had a natural fear and resistance to darkness, and her heart trembled , the body stiffened.

"Don't be afraid." Zhuge Yu gently touched her head, picked up the candlestick and entered the secret room. There are three secret rooms, and they entered the innermost one.

Zhuge Yu let go of Shui Linglong's hand for a while, and lit the incense candles on the desk, and the room suddenly became brighter. With the slightly trembling light, Shui Linglong saw clearly that this was a shrunken version of the ancestral hall, with incense candles, A desk, a bench, and a cushion, and on the desk is a mahogany carved tablet, which reads—the spirit tablet of the late mother Dong Nuomin.

He didn't do anything. She thought he forgot, but he remembered.

Zhuge Yu lit a stick of incense, knelt down on the cattail mat, and respectfully worshiped Nuo Min. There was no pledge of eternal love, no rhetoric, just one sentence: "I will treat Linglong well, mother, please rest in peace under the Nine Springs."

Shui Linglong's heart skipped a beat, and tears burst out of her eyes uncontrollably...

After she finished worshiping Nuo Min, Zhuge Yu hugged her into his arms and said softly, "I know you are suffering, so cry if you want to. You don't have to pretend to be in front of me."

Thinking of the wrong payment of love in the previous life for more than ten years, in exchange for a decree to abolish the empress, a torture, a son cannot be raised, and a daughter cannot be protected...

She really didn't dare to love anyone anymore in this life, but this man always blindly approached him tirelessly, giving recklessly regardless of the cost...Her heart is not made of stone...

Shui Linglong grabbed Zhuge Yu's skirt, lowered her eyes, and big tears fell on his palm: "Don't be so kind to me...Once I become addicted, I won't be able to quit...At that time...if you no longer belong to me , I will not allow you to belong to anyone..."

I will kill you…

Zhuge Yu raised the corners of his lips slightly, raised his hand to wipe away the tears on her face, and said: "I know what kind of person I marry, and I can predict the end of betraying her. If I really hurt her one day , I deserve the 'glory' in her hands."

Shui Linglong smiled through tears, held back the tumbling emotions in her heart, and looked at him for a few seconds. Just when she was about to drown under his affectionate gaze, Shui Linglong bit her lip, and suddenly threw herself into his arms, sucking the snot out of her nose. Tears wiped all over his body, and then looked at him gloatingly.

Zhuge Yu... breaking power!
Shui Linglong leaned forward and backward with a smile.

Zhuge Yu said with a dark face and a hoarse voice, "Let's see how I will deal with you later!"

Shui Linglong narrowed her eyes provocatively, and snorted, "Whoever cleans up doesn't know yet!"

"I've learned a lot, huh?" Zhuge Yu had a half-smile, his eyes fell into her slightly opened skirt, and the evil fire in his heart was churning, and he hugged her back to the bedroom.
