The Ups and Downs of Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 76 Going to the Princess Banquet ([-])

The talents have been demonstrated, the rewards have been fixed, and the emperor has spoken again.

"It's been a long time since I've been so happy. Seeing that the place is pretty good, Royal Sister, I won't keep you guys around anymore. Just walk around here as you like, and I just happen to be resting for a while."

"That's right, I haven't been to the princess mansion for a long time, so I just took this opportunity to take a stroll." The queen echoed without losing the opportunity.

"Okay, brother, please feel free, I will accompany the queen for a walk here."

So, a bunch of officials rested with the emperor, and a bunch of women slipped away with the queen and princess, but they didn't go far, they were nearby.And those boys and girls, accompanied by servants, scattered in the garden in twos and threes, and they could be regarded as meeting freely, but they met under the supervision of several pairs of eyes around them.

The Princess Mansion is indeed very big. When you turn around, there are beautiful small bridges, flowing water, pavilions and pavilions next to it.Since it's a stroll, everyone naturally finds people they know well to go with.Madam Gu came to Fang Xiuyi's side again at this time, Fang Xiuyi was very grateful for this.

"Mrs. Gu, why didn't you see Qizhi?"

"Bringing her here is just to meet people, not on the stage. She is with her friends now."

Fang Xiu nodded, feeling a little comforted in her heart.

"Today's weather is really good, really suitable for playing." Fang Xiuyi remembered that the most suitable topic for chatting with people is always the weather.

"Yeah, it's still hot in the morning, but I didn't expect it to be cooler in the afternoon."

Fang Xiuyi suddenly remembered that Mrs. Cheng, she looked around, and found that Mrs. Cheng didn't seem to fit in, and was walking at the right rear of the team.

"By the way, Mrs. Gu, what did you mean by that Mrs. Cheng you told me at noon?"

Mrs. Gu also glanced at Mrs. Cheng before saying, "Don't take it to heart, it's a long story, I'll talk about it later when I have a chance."

Fang Xiuyi became even more curious about what happened. She thought this Mrs. Cheng was not bad.She looked at Mrs. Gu suspiciously, but the other party obviously didn't want to continue this topic.

Suddenly there was commotion in front, Fang Xiu looked over and found several ladies standing on the bridge, looking into the river one after another, pointing, not knowing what was going on.

The river in the Princess Mansion is really wide, there are many ornamental fish in the river, and there are many lotus leaves floating on the river, which is really beautiful.The bridge body is also very high, with a large span, and it doesn't look like a bridge in someone's house at all.

Many people, including the queen, came to the bridge soon. It turned out that a lady's hairpin fell into the river.The eldest princess immediately sent people down to salvage.As soon as Fang Xiu saw a woman wearing unlined clothing, she plunged into the water, but she couldn't see her figure. It seems that the river is quite deep.This eldest princess is really not an ordinary person. The streams in other people's houses are just for decoration, but there is a river in her house, and she is not afraid of people falling into it.

After the woman went up and down a few times, she picked up her hairpin. Everyone exclaimed and applauded. The lady also thanked the eldest princess frequently.

After going out like this, everyone found that standing on the bridge to see the scenery here is really an excellent venue. For a while, many people stood on the bridge to appreciate the scenery and comment on it.

Fang Xiuyi didn't go anywhere else, afraid of being out of place under the eyes of everyone, but fortunately, the scenery is pleasant.

"Madam He, how about looking at the scenery?"

Just as Fang Xiuyi was immersed in the scenery, the eldest princess asked a very abrupt question, which made others look at Fang Xiuyi.

"Yeah, it's so ingenious and so beautiful."

"I heard that Mrs. He has been to many places before, is there such a thing?"

Fang Xiuyi didn't know what the eldest princess was going to do and why she mentioned these things on this occasion.

"Princess Lao is concerned, I did bring my child all the way from the south to the capital."

"Mrs. He is really extraordinary. Under such a difficult environment, she brought Mrs. He and her two children with her, and she managed to come to the capital safely and become a first-class lady. It is really admirable." In the words of the eldest princess He said barbedly, "I think, among us all, no one can do as well as Mrs. He."

Fang Xiuyi didn't know what this had to do with the eldest princess. She looked at the queen next to the eldest princess, who seemed to be calm, and then looked at the ladies around her, with expressions of watching a show, but Mrs. Gu was still very concerned. Her, gently squeezed her hand, she smiled at Mrs. Gu, telling her not to worry.

"The eldest princess is absurd. Everyone is a mother. I don't think I need to say more about what efforts can be made for the child. Everyone has their own measure. Do you think so, eldest princess? If you are in a difficult situation, Wouldn't it be doing that?"

If the other party's question is not easy to answer, the best counterattack is to ask back.

Hearing what she said, the faces of the people around her immediately showed approval.For any mother, her child is her reason for strength.

The eldest princess glanced at the queen, and then said: "Unexpectedly, Mrs. He is really eloquent."

"Sorry, princess, I just say it from the bottom of my heart." Fang Xiu saw it, the princess seemed to have come to avenge the queen, but is this timing, this occasion, appropriate?She just wanted to live the rest of her life smoothly, why didn't these people let her go?

"From the bottom of my heart? Well, since you're from the bottom of my heart, why don't you be honest about the things you've been implicated in?" It seems that the Eldest Princess is really going to confront Fang Xiu to the end today.

"Also ask the eldest princess to clarify!"

"It seems that you don't feel guilty at all for what happened to those people. In this case, we will reveal your true face today." The eldest princess said righteously, "I heard that you used to make a living in some people's homes, but these People have had some accidents because of you. You have bad luck, and you don’t reflect on yourself, but you go out to harm others.”

The accusation of the eldest princess is very serious, because in such an era, people are very superstitious and easily bewitched by these invisible things.So many people spontaneously took a step back after hearing what the eldest princess said, and looked at Fang Xiuyi suspiciously.

"It's rare for the eldest princess to be able to hear such distant rumors in the deep compound." Fang Xiuyi might have given in to these people before, but now she knows that if she takes a step back, others will step forward, "Listen to my lord, the eldest princess She is Emperor Renzong's favorite princess, and also His Majesty's favorite sister. She has been educated since she was a child, and she has learned a lot. Why do you believe these nonsense?"

"Bold, dare to criticize the eldest princess of the court!" The queen finally ended her silence and scolded Fang Xiuyi.

Fang Xiu smiled, and she confirmed again that, in terms of identity, this queen is stupid.

"Empress empress, it is clear that nonsense is just criticism!"

"You..." The queen realized her identity, and raised her hand noblely again, "Could it be that the grown-up princess has wronged you?"

"Empress, I really don't understand what the eldest princess said just now."

"You really don't cry until you see the coffin!" The eldest princess was angry, and she had never seen such a ignorant woman, "But there is a sufferer!"

Everyone looked at Fang Xiuyi, but they didn't dare to say anything.Mrs. Gu stood by Fang Xiuyi's side all the time, supporting her. Fang Xiu smiled at her to show her comfort.

Soon, a person was brought before him.Seeing that the person who came was Mrs. Chang, Fang Xiu realized at once that she had climbed the high branch of the eldest princess, but this high branch was not as secure as she thought.

It was also the first time for Mrs. Chang to see so many noble ladies, none of whom were more noble than her, and she was a little at a loss for a while.

"I haven't seen the empress yet!" The eldest princess was also a little annoyed that she didn't appear on the stage like this.

"My concubine has met the empress, thousands of years old. I have met the eldest princess, thousands of years old." Mrs. Chang did not expect to see the queen again, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.

"Get up and answer." The Queen's tone hinted at the joy.

"Thank you, Empress."

"Madam Chang, are you from Hangzhou Mansion?" the Eldest Princess asked.

"Yes, princess."

"Do you know a He Fang family?"

"I did know a He Fang family before, and she once worked in my residence for a living."

"Oh? Asking for a living? What kind of a living?"

"At that time, Mrs. He Fang was telling stories to the wives and ladies in some big families. I also invited her to the house."

The eldest princess glanced at Fang Xiuyi, and continued to ask happily: "Since it's telling stories, it's understandable to earn living expenses, but I heard that her reputation is not very good, is that true?"

Mrs. Chang seemed to feel that it was a bit serious, how important a woman's reputation is, she hesitated before saying: "It's all right at first, this He Fang family is very hardworking, and the stories he tells are good, but later, everyone she went to was out of order." Some things. As far as I know, she also sold a few recipes to several restaurants, but then there were accidents in these restaurants. Therefore, everyone said that she was a broom star, and whoever met her was unlucky."

As soon as Mrs. Chang finished speaking, there was a burst of surprise among the group of noble ladies.They were full of all kinds of speculation and doubts about this Madam He who turned out to be born out of nowhere, and they also had a lot of disdain, but after hearing this today, it seems that there are still many unknown things.Once the name of the broom star is confirmed, life will be difficult.

"So that's how it is!" The eldest princess asked Mrs. Chang again, "Take a look around, is there the He Fang family you mentioned among this group of people?"

Mrs. Chang was also a little surprised, but she still took a bold look. When she saw Fang Xiuyi, her eyes were as big as copper bells.Today's Fang Xiuyi is different from what she saw that day, today's Fang Xiuyi is even more wealthy.

"Miss He, why are you here?" Mrs. Chang was extremely surprised.

"Madam Chang, are you safe? That day I wanted to invite Madam Chang to the mansion to thank her for her kindness, but Madam Chang refused. I didn't expect to see you in the Princess's mansion today." Fang Xiuyi remembered that Madam Chang Her husband came to Beijing to report on his work. From this point of view, he should have asked someone to find the eldest princess.

"You..." Mrs. Chang looked at the eldest princess again without knowing the situation.

The eldest princess is very satisfied with the current situation.

"Why, Mrs. He, I didn't expect to see the client in the capital, right?"

"I don't know what this party is referring to?"

"Bold! I am a bastard, and I am still showing off everywhere, causing trouble to others. Mrs. Chang has the opportunity to appeal today, and pity those who cannot come to the capital. It is really hard for them. Don't you feel guilty?"

Fang Xiuyi did not expect that the eldest princess would be so naive. Under the current emperor's rule of not believing in ghosts and gods, she would dare to advocate such evil principles with great fanfare. If it is publicized, I don't know how the emperor will deal with her.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiuyi smiled happier than anyone else.

"Since the Eldest Princess thinks so, then I really admire the Eldest Princess for her courage. She dared to send me a post, inviting me to the mansion, and invited a group of wives to come." After finishing speaking, Fang Xiuyi did not mind Da, stepped forward a few steps and whispered, "There are even emperors and queens!"

The faces of the eldest princess and the queen changed drastically. They only thought of using this to suppress Fang Xiuyi, a mere cook, who could have any brains, but they didn't expect it to become the current situation.
