Sick King and Concubine

Chapter 253
Even in old age, it is still unshakable.

Jiang Gracilaria walked through the Moon Gate, passed the promenade where the wisteria bloomed, and crossed a small bridge facing the water to Jinhua Garden.

Before entering the door just now, several nuns came up and said, "Princess Qi, please follow us."

Jiang Li nodded, then followed them forward, passed through a large courtyard, and saw a group of women in gold and silver in the lobby, some of them were aunts whom they had seen last night, while some had never seen them before. of.The woman sitting in the first place was holding a bowl of Biluochun, looking at Jiang Li from the tea smoke with a pair of red phoenix eyes, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of her mouth.

A slight tug, like mockery, provocation, excitement, but also neglect.

Jiang Li's face was expressionless, she walked up and said, "I haven't seen you in half a year, I don't know if Erniang is in good health?"

The word "Er Niang" made the breathing of the entire hall stagnate. Some people had already looked at Long Bihua cautiously, but the corners of her mouth froze so quickly that no one could see it, and she nodded calmly. Said: "I haven't seen you in half a year, but my girl is better off. It seems that the marriage I chose for you at the beginning is not bad."

Others straightened their bodies again, the word "marriage" reminded people that Jiang Li married a sick young man who was about to fall into the ground, so how long will the glory be?
However, Jiang Li just smiled and said: "For the marriage, I am really grateful to Erniang. I came here today and prepared some gifts for Erniang and all the aunts to show my shallow gratitude."

After she finished speaking, Mingyue and Caiyun came up holding a plate covered by a brocade handkerchief.

The plate is made of high-quality Hetian jade, and the outline of the mountains and rivers meanders along the bottom of the plate. Every carving is exquisite. The contents alone are enough to be placed in a high-rise seat for people to appreciate and admire. It's amazing.

Qing Ge opened the brocade handkerchief on it, and then revealed small boxes. The jadeite box was very small, no more than the size of two thumbs, but on such a small jadeite box, there was a series of lifelike engravings. The pictures of beautiful ladies, hairpin flowers, lotus hoe, looking back, are full of charm and beauty.

Jiang Li smiled and said: "This is a few scattered gemstones I got when I was in Dongzhi a few days ago, and I made them into small objects such as moon pendants and rings. There is no shortage of anything in the mansion, but it can be used as an ornamental item. "

After Jiang Li finished speaking, Qing Ge picked them up and sent them to the aunts and wives around her one by one, and Jiang Li personally took a box and sent it up, saying: "Please, Er Niang."

Long Bihua wasn't angry either, things like Jiang Gracilaria were rare things, even the most extravagant people couldn't do the generosity of giving them away, he looked at the emerald green box, and then took it , smiled and said: "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness."

But here, those aunts who took the things can't wait to open the small emerald boxes in their hands. Inside the clear emerald emerald, there are dazzling gemstone earrings, etc., even the royal princess who often comes, is also very ugly. To such fineness.

Long Bihua glanced at the astonished eyes of those around him with a smile, and finally turned a blind eye to it, and asked Jiang Li, "I wonder if the Ninth Prince of Chu State is satisfactory?"

Jiang Li was actually grateful to her for this point. If it wasn't for her plan, she might not have met Chu Yu. She nodded and said, "He's very good."

Long Bihua's eyes turned around her stomach, and said: "Women, what is the most important? Heirs. Men will always have three wives and four concubines. You should also pay attention, especially the royal family. They are used to seeing characters. It’s time to try to be fresh, and it’s inevitable to steal. You have to be prepared, don’t be old and have nothing to rely on. Chu is rich, and you can take things now, but it may not be the case in the future.”

Every word she said was thinking of Jiang Li, but who couldn't understand what she meant behind the scenes?This is stabbing Gracilaria secretly.

However, Jiang Li just smiled faintly. Even if she really got into this matter, she wouldn't care too much, just pack up and leave, but with Chu Yu, these stabbing words seem a little ridiculous, because Jiang Li raised his eyes and said, "Zixiu will come soon. I believe these things will never happen to him."

As she spoke, she did not look at Long Bihua's face, but raised her eyes to look around, and said, "Er Niang, I heard that everything in the Ding'anhou Mansion must be the first child of the wife's birth." Children inherit, regardless of whether the child is in Jiang's family or not. I don't know if it is?"

Long Bihua's expression changed slightly, and he stood up abruptly: "What do you mean?!"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "What's wrong with Erniang? Recently, Erniang's eyes are astringent and her brows are urging. It seems that she is very angry. She needs to calm down for a while, otherwise even the best beauty medicine will not be able to resist it."

The woman in front of her looked back and smiled lightly. She was obviously as gentle as water, but it made people feel a sense of threat.The handkerchief in her hand was tightly pulled, almost torn, how dare she speak to her like that!She missed it!At that time, I thought it was just a ugly flower, and it only took a little force to hold it in the palm of my hand, but I didn't expect that this seemingly harmless flower turned into a thorn in my palm when I pulled it out. It can't be taken out and can't be taken back, it can only be stabbed so bloody.

Long Bihua endured it to the extreme, but smiled calmly, and said: "Wangfei will come back this time, and she will wait until after His Majesty's birthday."

"Naturally." Jiang Li nodded.

Long Bihua said: "Okay then, if you have time tonight, Wangfei, please come to the palace with me, and you should go and see it too."

Jiang Li said, "That's natural."

Jiang Li stepped out of the courtyard, and Mingyue said beside him: "Princess, do you have to go tonight?"

Jiang Li smiled and said, "It's just a Hongmen banquet, it happens sooner or later."

Jiang Li went back to her room, changed into men's clothing, and said to Mingyue and Caiyun, "Come out with me."

The two nodded.

Jiang Gracilaria came to the stable, but found that the "Treading Snow" that had been tethered there was gone, and the stable was also in a mess, with fodder and blood everywhere, human blood and horse blood.

Jiang Li immediately stood still, then went straight to the guard next to the stable, and asked, "Where's the horse?"

The man hurriedly said with a pale face: "I don't know, the little one doesn't know."

Mingyue took a step forward, Jiang Li raised her hand to stop her, then glanced at the stable again, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

There was still a scent of makeup in the stable, she said: "Let's go, Mingyue."

Jiang Li went to another stable, then rolled up, and Mingyue and Caiyun also rode up.

Jiang Li said to Mingyue: "Go and ask, where is Miss Jiang's family?"
