first princess

Chapter 6
At this time, Ye Mao opened the curtain and came in: "Miss, the carriage is ready, Madam let you go. Huh? Aren't you going to offer incense? Is this dress too much?"

Huahong glared at Ye Mao, and said, "Miss is the eldest daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, where is this attire?"

Shui Linglong smiled, since the old lady reminded her, she knew what Qin Fangyi was thinking.She was actually very curious. In her previous life, Qin Fangyi found Xun Feng for her, and who did she want to "sell" her to in this life!
When they got to the gate, everyone knew that Shui Lingxi was sick and couldn't go to the temple.

Qin Fangyi looked at Shui Linglong's clothes, smiled with satisfaction, and got into her exclusive carriage.

There are also two carriages, Shui Lingyu and Shui Lingqing are sisters of the same mother, and they share a carriage, which means that Shui Linglong and Shui Lingyue will ride in the same carriage.

Just when Shui Linglong was about to get in the car, Shui Lingyue stepped onto the wooden bench first, turned her head and sneezed loudly at Shui Linglong, Shui Linglong held her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, Shui Lingyue smiled apologetically: "Dear Sister, I have caught the cold, you should take the carriage of the third sister and the fifth sister, lest I get sick to you!"

Huahong tugged Shui Linglong's sleeve very cooperatively, and said in a low voice: "Miss, it's just that we can take this opportunity to ask Miss San for the secret recipe of making rouge."

Shui Linglong pretended to be embarrassed and said: "But counting you and Ye Mao, will the car be too crowded?"

Shui Lingyue smiled: "Ye Mao is a second-class maid, with rough skin and thick flesh. If you want to be strong, let her sit in my carriage."

The attitude is so firm!

Along the way, Huahong asked about the details of the rouge gouache very professionally, and even asked to see the formula. Shui Lingyu prevaricates it by saying that the formula is too complicated to remember clearly, and is very irresponsible. He said that he would go back to the house to look for it later, and if he found it, he would send it to Shui Linglong.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, several people joined Qin Fangyi. None of the cases of murder, rape, abduction, and dismemberment of underage girls that Shui Linglong had been vigilant to had never happened. Shui Linglong raised her eyebrows. Shui Lingyue actually hated her so she didn't want to Riding in the same car with her?And Huahong really wanted the rouge formula, so she got involved with Shui Lingyu?
It's rare for the daughter of the boudoir to go out, even if there are bald-headed monks next to her, she thinks their bald heads are really cute.

Shui Lingqing blinked her crystal eyes, full of innocence and interest.

Shui Lingyu has always maintained a ladylike dignity, but it can be seen that she is happy in her heart.

Shui Lingyue is like a proud peacock, pretending that she is a prostitute without Shui Lingxi, but her eyes flash faster than Shui Lingqing's, which shows that curiosity is an indispensable brown candy for every age group quality.

In Shui Linglong's mind, she was thinking about who is the financial backer for Mrs. Dingyuanhou to act as a matchmaker for her. Qin Fangyi must have a good background for Shui Lingxi and the prince to win over the backstage.In her previous life, she and Xun Feng had eloped without a name, but now Qin Fangyi is obviously preparing to go through the normal procedure after spending so much time, so it will take at least a year and a half to complete the three media and six employments, which means that during this period, She will have the opportunity to obtain a powerful backer, as for whether to marry or not...

After Qin Fangyi took a few daughters to offer incense, she went to rest in the meditation room for pilgrims. The meditation room is in the east of the temple, away from the quiet courtyard of the major Buddhist halls. All are top-quality narcissus, wintersweet and nandina, competing for splendor under the golden sun.

When passing through the Moon Gate, a well-dressed middle-aged woman came over. It was Mrs. Dingyuan Hou, whose husband's surname was Wu. She took Qin Fangyi's hand in surprise, and said without 300 taels of silver here: "Oh, water Madame, what a coincidence? Are you coming to offer incense too?"

Qin Fangyi smiled in response to the situation: "Yes, ask my mother-in-law for a bodhisattva, and bless her to recover soon."

Mrs. Wu praised: "The old lady is lucky to have a daughter-in-law like you who has such a family background, filial piety, righteousness, and top-notch people. You have spread your filial piety in the capital for a long time. Today, I know the rumors are true." Fake."

Thousands of wears and thousands of wears, flattery does not wear.After flattering, Mrs. Wu finally looked at the "parallel importers" as if she had discovered a new world, "Oh! These are the daughters of the Water Mansion! It's a pity that I didn't see them last time. Look at this one." He's handsome, like the royal princess!"

Qin Fangyi said: "This is Mrs. Wu from Dingyuanhou's Mansion."

"Parallel importers" Qiqi saluted Mrs. Wu: "Greetings to Mrs. Wu."

"They are all lovely children!" Mrs. Wu glanced at the things with her eyes, deliberately ignoring the luminous Shui Linglong, took out a piece of candy from her sleeve, and stuffed it into a small hand, "It's almost nine years old!" Well, he's really tall, and his aunt raised him well."

Qin Fangyi's face darkened.

Shui Lingqing said shyly and timidly: "I...I am twelve."

Qin Fangyi asked for two guest rooms, one for Shui San, Shui Si, and Shui Wu, and one for her and Shui Linglong, for nothing else but Shui Linglong's make-up.Hua Hong and Ye Mao couldn't get in the way at all, Qin Fangyi told them to rest where they were cool, and let Hua Yi stay by Shui Linglong's side when they saw people later.

"Okay, go to the toilet, and then follow me to visit some ladies." Qin Fangyi said very cryptically.

Is this because she is afraid that she will pee in fear?

Gong’s room is behind the Wintersweet Garden, not too far away but absolutely remote, Shui Linglong walks straight to Gong’s room through the elegant and fragrant Wintersweet Garden, unexpectedly, after walking a few steps, she hears a very loud noise. Untimely noise.

"Let me go, are you crazy? This is a temple!" A young woman with a charming face, about 23 or [-], lowered her voice and pushed away the man who was hugging her.

The man has a strong body and a bronze complexion. Compared with the gorgeous dress of the woman, he looks very shabby. When he was pushed away, he couldn't help being angry: "What? You also feel ashamed sometimes? It's embarrassing to be with me? Throwing Wouldn’t it be shameful for you to abandon your son as a concubine?”

The woman trembled all over, looked left and right and said: "You...don't talk nonsense, I have nothing to do with you, don't insult my innocence..."

"Xue Juan, that's enough! My son cries for his mother every night, do you know that? It's been three months, and I dare not even go home, lest he ask me why I didn't bring my mother back, do you know You know? I've worked hard to make money, go, come back with me!" The man grabbed Xue Juan's wrist, Xue Juan was shocked, and kicked his crotch, the man let go of the pain and covered the bottom.

Xue Juan took the opportunity to run away, but she was probably really scared, so she ran in the direction of the men's room in a panic, and as a result, she met a black figure before she had gone far.

There is some distance, but between the sparse petals, Shui Linglong can faintly see his fair complexion and fortitude outline, and even the slightly trembling eyelashes, thick and curly, whitewashed with bright eyes, at first glance, as if The big eyes of a baby are as clear as steel blue; when you look at them again, they are full of hostility like the pupils of ghosts and demons.

Just when Shui Linglong was in a daze, Xue Juan was about to bump into him, and with a swipe of his hand, a palm wind hit Xue Juan, Xue Juan stared, and fell straight down...

This is... dead?
Shui Linglong was surprised.

The man was startled at first, and then he came back to his senses: "You...you...how can you kill people indiscriminately? Is there any law under the emperor's feet?"

Zhuge Yu stopped in his tracks, opened his eyes as bright as obsidian, and said in astonishment: "Huh? Don't you hate her for abandoning her husband and son? You should be happy that I killed her. Why are you crying?"

The man was heartbroken and said: "You...you...you are unreasonable!"

Zhuge Yu raised his head, thought for a moment, then looked down at her, and suddenly realized: "I understand, you blame her and hate her at the same time, right? Then I will be a good person to the end, Anping, and send him on his way."

As soon as the words fell, Anping pierced the man's heart with his sword.

Shui Linglong has black lines all over her face!
Zhuge Yu continued to move forward, and when he passed by Shui Linglong, a powerful coercion rushed towards him, like a mountain pressing down on the top, or like a vast sea, time quietly stood still, as if he could hear the sound of space freezing inch by inch, Shui Linglong's instinct She wanted to bend her knees, but she pinched herself hard and straightened her spine.

Zhuge Yu's thick eyebrows raised slightly, and he couldn't help but look at her more, and said coldly: "Do you think anyone can be the soul of this son's subordinate? This son only kills beautiful women. Obviously, you are still far from that standard."

Shui Linglong turned sideways, and smiled: "Master, I don't like to eat dog meat!"

Zhuge Yu didn't know why, but he didn't investigate further, and approached Gong's room.When the loud hiss came to Shui Linglong's extremely sensitive ears, Shui Linglong laughed loudly: "So, even if the dog bites me, I don't bother to bite it!"

Zhuge Yu choked, and choked back half of his pee!

From Shui Linglong's point of view, as long as her fiancé is not like the perverted prince, she can accept it.I reviewed the memories of my previous life in my mind. There are many princes and viscounts in the capital, and there must be many sons, but Zhuge Yu from the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion seems to be the only one who treats life like nothing and is perverse and violent.This prince never seeks fame, never participates in government affairs, and does not even attend formal social activities.But this is not to say that he has autism, Qin Hui still has three friends, and he still has few cronies?It's just that what they do are gathering crowds to gamble, fight and fight, and other unscrupulous things.The King of Zhenbei in his previous life may not have had the ambition to usurp the throne, but it is a pity that he "wiped his ass" for this unfilial son and wiped away too many contacts, which eventually made Xun Feng cheaper.

Huayi greeted Shui Linglong at the gate of the Lamei Garden, and said with a smile, "Missy has been away for a long time, but her stomach feels unwell?"

As expected of being the big maid next to the mistress, no matter what she thinks in her heart, at least she has done her best on the surface, Shui Linglong nodded slightly: "I'm fine, please sister Huayi lead the way."

It was not the first time that Huayi was called "sister" by the concubine masters, but it was mostly flattering, unlike the eldest lady who took a bit of sincerity, Huayi pursed her lips, a trace of pity and sympathy flashed in her eyes, as if she said casually : "I heard that nobleman avoids red color this year, Missy should pay more attention."

In the elegant and simple big Zen room, Princess Zhenbei is sitting on the warm kang head, and there are delicate and delicious pastries and fragrant hot tea on the square table beside her. The maid Cen Er is serving tea to the other two in the room. Presented by a lady.They are Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Li, the eldest daughter-in-law of Duke Xuanguo's mansion. The former Marquis of Dingyuan Wu Han and Duke Xuan Guo were both great generals who followed the late emperor's conquests. The enemy ambushed, Wu Han gave up the chance of survival to Xuan Guogong, and he himself led the pursuers away, and finally died in Jianhai.

Xuan Guogong was grateful for Wu Han's life-saving grace, and married his eldest daughter Li Xian'er to Wu Han's eldest son Wu Xuping as his wife.Even without Wu Han, as long as they hugged Xuan Guogong's thigh tightly, the life of Wu and his wife would be prosperous.On the other hand, Wu Xuping has mental twitches, is addicted to gambling, dotes on his concubine and destroys his wife, loses his wife's dowry to a large extent, and refuses to give his wife the sexual benefits she deserves. There are so many concubine daughters, why should she, the eldest daughter of the concubine, be pushed into the fire pit?Gradually, she stopped interacting with her natal family.

Today, I happened to meet my sister-in-law, Li Xian'er, also known as Mrs. Wu, considering that Princess Zhenbei's face was considered polite.

"Did sister-in-law come to offer incense alone today? Brother didn't accompany you?" Mrs. Wu smiled pointedly.

Madam Li's complexion changed, and she forced a smile: "Your elder brother is busy." He was busy trying to please the new concubine!
Mrs. Wu smiled again: "Oh, I heard that you are going to be a grandmother. My niece and son-in-law are really capable. Congratulations, sister-in-law."

The pregnant one is an aunt!Mrs. Li's face became paler and paler.

Mrs. Wu suddenly felt a sense of revenge. It turned out that her man was not the only one who doted on his concubine and killed his wife, haha!
After running on her natal family, Mrs. Wu did not forget to "hook up" the master: "Princess, is the eldest son here?"

When mentioning her son, Leng Youru had a gentle smile on her face.Everyone in the world knows that the man from the Xun family, the daughter from the Leng family, and the dragon and phoenix from the Yun family are unmatched.Shui Lingxi is beautiful, right?But compared with Leng Youru, he is brother and middle, especially Princess Zhenbei, who is nearly forty years old, and she still smiles like a peach: "He is a restless person, but he came here, so he just wandered somewhere. "

Mrs. Wu smiled and said: "My son is filial, isn't everything just up to the princess?"

Leng Youru took a sip of tea, lowered her eyes, and said lightly: "The banker is for others' good, and his children are for his own good. He is filial. I have no choice."

After serving the tea, Cen'er heard footsteps outside, hurriedly went out and led Qin Fangyi and Shui Linglong in, followed by poetry and painting.

"My wife and eldest daughter Shui Linglong greet the princess, and the princess is blessed." The four saluted Leng Youru politely, but Shui Linglong's heart thumped after scanning around the room. Matchmaking can be ruled out, so her fiancé must have been born in Zhuge's family and Li's family...

"Be flat, give me a seat." Leng Youru said indifferently.

Cen'er led Qin Fangyi to take the first seat under Mrs. Li, but placed a hexagonal embroidered stool for Shui Linglong to sit in front of Princess Bei.Shui Linglong's heart sank suddenly, she didn't want to do anything... Her luck is not so bad!

After Shui Linglong sat down, Leng Youru began to "check the goods": "How old is it?"

"Back to the princess, fifteen."

"Are you literate?"

"A little bit."

"What books do you read on weekdays?"

""Women's Admonitions", "Women's Training", and some Four Books and Five Classics."

"Well, how is the girl doing?"

"So-so."

"Cen'er, take a look." Princess Zhenbei smiled gently.

Cen'er handed over to Shui Linglong the little golden lock and a pair of icy glutinous jadeite bracelets that she had prepared earlier in the morning. Shui Linglong was slightly taken aback, did she pass the test?Why did she feel that the princess didn't look at her at all?Could it be that Zhuge Yu's market is so bad that he can't choose what to eat?
Mrs. Wu secretly paid, if Zhuge Shizi hadn't been notorious, violent, moody, and killed three fiancées in a row, any decent family in the capital would never dare to marry him again, how could the princess treat a Shangshufu? The little concubine moved her mind?However, when Shui Linglong first met the princess, she did not appear timid and shy, on the contrary, she was able to answer the questions fluently, calmly and calmly, which made her look a little sideways.I just hope that her life will be tougher, so that she will not be overwhelmed to death by Zhuge Shizi.

Qin Fangyi let out a long breath, it doesn't matter whether she can die or not, anyway, the generous dowry given by the princess will never be taken back.

But Shui Linglong changed her mind. After she disgusted Zhuge Yu when he peed, is there any difference between using him as a backer and jumping into the tiger's mouth?
She remembered the reminder of the painting - noble people avoid red!She buried her hands in her wide sleeves, and was about to pull out the red embroidered mespa inside, when a magnetic voice slowly sounded from behind: "Concubine Mother."

Except for the concubine, everyone in the room got up together and bowed to Zhuge Yu: "See you son!"

Among them, of course, Shui Linglong, who was gnashing her teeth, was also included.

When Zhuge Yu saw the villain next to Princess Zhenbei, his gaze turned cold for a moment. Don't tell him that his fiancée is this stinky girl that he can't wait to slap to death!
Shui Linglong gave him a look of "Master, you guessed it right", and then pulled hard, the silk handkerchief slipped into the palm of her hand. Unexpectedly, just when she was about to show the red color to offend the nobleman, a shocking burst of weeping ghosts and gods came out. A scream came from outside the door: "Ah—Madam, Madam is not good! Aunt Xue...Aunt Xue...was killed!"

Madam Li's hand trembled, and the teacup fell to the ground, smashing it to pieces!

Aunt Xue, Xue Juan, the new aunt of Xuan Guogong's eldest son, Li Cheng, is very loved by Li Cheng. On weekdays, even Mrs. Li has to give her a three-point face. A few days ago, Xue Juan was diagnosed as pregnant. Take her out to offer incense, and ask for a peace talisman for the child in her stomach.

No one witnessed the incident, but the little novice monk at the entrance remembered the people who entered and exited the Wintersweet Garden during that time: Shui Linglong, Zhuge Yu, Anping, Aunt Xue and a man. The latter two died, and no one believed the murderer It would be Shui Linglong, a weak woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, and Zhuge Yu became the only suspect.Of course, he could rely on Anping, but he didn't.

In the room, the atmosphere was extremely gloomy, a bloody incident happened in a good blind date, Princess Zhenbei's expression turned extremely ugly.

An hour later, Li Cheng came.
