Destroyed outside, gold and jade inside

Chapter 276
"Xiniang," Gongsun Lan suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at Shen Xinniang seriously, "If you have trouble in the future, if you treat me as a trustworthy friend, don't hide it like this! Just tell me, and this time I am responsible for what happened, if you don't let me know, I don't know how guilty I am."

Shen Xinniang looked at her and nodded seriously, "Thank you this time..."

"Don't, don't," Gongsun Lan quickly waved her hand, "Don't say thank you again! You said it is a redemption, if my brother and I can't rescue Si Niangzi, I don't know how ashamed I will be, I'm afraid I will lose face in the future Goodbye you guys!"

Shen Xinniang smiled lightly and shook her head slightly.

"Thinking about this period of time, you are not living a stable life. My brother and I will not delay you, and let's take a break. Let's go first." Gongsun Lan said with a smile.

Gongsun Ling was still in Fang Yan's study, and he was depressed until a servant of the royal family came to look for him and said that Mrs. Gongsun was leaving. The little flame of dissatisfaction just wanted to burn Fang Yan up.

"General Gongsun, go slowly." Fang Yan said politely.

Gongsun Ling clenched his fists, cupped his hands angrily, and followed the servant without saying a word.The attitude is really strange.

Sitting on the carriage home all the time, Gongsun Ling's expression was not very good.He didn't even hear his sister talk to him.

"Brother!" Gongsun Lan whispered in his ear.

Gongsun Ling was startled suddenly, and turned around, "What are you doing?"

"You have been absent-minded. What are you thinking about?" Gongsun Lan asked, "Could it be that you are worried that Yu Miao will not let it go? Probably not. Anyway, everyone has been rescued, so what if he is not reconciled? After this After this incident, I feel at ease! By the way, let's have a drink or two when we get home to celebrate!"

Gongsun Ling's brows were tightly wrinkled, and he didn't open his mouth for a long time. When he came home, he murmured: "At first, I thought King Qi was a nice person, and he was a person who valued love and righteousness. If I didn't think about it, I would be a fool... ..."

Gongsun Lan was taken aback when she heard the words, "Why did King Qi provoke you?"

Gongsun Ling snorted, his face darkened.

This made Gongsun Lan who was sitting on the side very inexplicable, "You guys are at odds with each other in the study? Is there any conflict? Shouldn't it? Brother, do you have prejudice against others? I think he treats Xin Niang very well. Why? Isn't he a person who values ​​love and righteousness?"

Hearing this, Gongsun Ling turned to look at his younger sister, "Xinniang, Xinniang, is there only one Xinniang in your eyes? He treats Xinniang well because he values ​​love and righteousness? That's his wife. She's good, shouldn't it be taken for granted?"

His tone was rather aggressive.

Gongsun Lan was taken aback by him, and nodded inexplicably, "It's as it should be, brother, why are you so crazy..."

The carriage stopped at the Chuihua Gate, Gongsun Ling stopped talking nonsense to her, got off the carriage, and went straight to his courtyard.

"Hey, brother, we agreed to have two drinks to celebrate?" When Gongsun Lan jumped off the carriage, where could she see her brother, she muttered to herself, "Why is that so weird?"

When Fang Yan returned to the main courtyard, Shen Xinniang was already half-lying on the bed, with her hands resting on her lower abdomen, her eyes slightly closed, slowly drawing the warmth of the Yin-Yang Spring Eyes in the palm of her left hand, and drawing it all over her body, at the dantian, Surrounded for two more weeks.Only then did the feeling of uneasiness and dull pain in the lower abdomen subside.

Suddenly a big warm hand covered the back of her hand, and that warm feeling went straight from the back of the hand to the bottom of her heart.

She slowly opened her eyes, facing Shang Yan with slightly worried eyes, "Are you still uncomfortable?"

She shook her head, "No, don't worry."

"You are like this, how can you not make people worry? You said that if there is anything, you will tell me. Now tell me what you should worry about, and let me worry about it. You just need to be at ease and don't think about anything , just think about the fact that you are going to be a mother, okay?" Fang Yan smiled slightly, looking at her intently and warmly.

Shen Xinniang nodded slowly, "Okay, I will learn to be a good mother."

Fang Yan nodded, "It was originally a troublesome matter, but it made me realize that there is a good thing in it."

"A good thing?" Shen Xiniang raised her eyebrows slightly, "What a good thing?"

"Aren't you always worried about Si Niang's marriage?" Fang Yan asked softly, "What do you think of Gongsun Ling?"

"Gongsun Ling?" Shen Xiniang was taken aback for a moment, then nodded after a while, "You mean, General Gongsun is interested in Si Niangzi?"

"He seems to have misunderstood, thinking that the fourth lady is my concubine, and there is clearly pity for the fourth lady in his words. If he knows that the fourth lady is not my concubine, come to think of it, he is willing to take care of the fourth lady." Fang Fang Yan said.

Shen Xinniang nodded, but shook her head again, "General Gongsun is already in his thirties, right?"

"Yes, when Gao Tang was still alive, he arranged a marriage for him. Later, when Gao Tang passed away, the woman withdrew the marriage. He always regarded taking care of his sister as his own responsibility, so he didn't think about it anymore. Maybe someone came to ask And, he gave up because his sister didn't like it." Fang Yan explained, "He is honest and reliable, and his character is also good."

"People are naturally good, and they are more mature and stable when they are older. However, he is now a general after all, and he has the trust of the late emperor. Even if Shen Shangshu sees him, I am afraid that he should respect him a little bit. Fourth lady concubine I don't know if she will be wronged by him as a woman." Shen Xinniang said slowly.

Fang Yan lowered her eyes, "Maybe he doesn't care about his identity?"

"If he can treat Si Niang sincerely, everything will be fine. Given his status, he may not formally propose to marry Si Niang, right? Si Niang regards me as her own sister, and I also treat her as my younger sister. I definitely don't want to call her I was wronged." Shen Xinniang said seriously.

"Why don't you ask Si Niang what she means?" Fang Yan held her soft hand.

Shen Xinniang nodded, "Let's pass in two days."

It was almost dawn, and Fang Yan and Yi lay down with Shen Xinniang for a while, seeing that she was fast asleep, he got up and turned to face her.

During this period of time, because she was worried about Shen Siniang, she didn't sleep well, so that the life in her womb felt her uneasiness and felt a dull pain.Now I can take a good rest.

After a few days, seeing that Shen Siniang's condition was stable and the smile on her face was warm, the previous incident didn't seem to cast too much shadow on her, but when she mentioned the Shen family and Shen Wuniang, her The face will be extraordinarily cloudy.

The sun was good this day, Shen Xiniang was sitting in the warm pavilion covered with translucent glass screens in the courtyard, mixing dyes, and someone invited Shen Siniang to bask in the sun together.

"Si Niang," Shen Xin Niang said slowly while mixing the dyes, "Have you passed the hurdle in your heart in the past?"

When Shen Siniang heard this, she was slightly taken aback on her smiling face, "What did sister say?"

Shen Xinniang put down the dye in her hand, looked up at her, "Qin Langjun, have you forgotten?"

Shen Siniang's face froze for a moment, she sighed slightly, and nodded, "It's over, don't think about it."

Shen Xinniang smiled, "People always have to look forward and move forward. It's good if you can look away."

The warm pavilion fell silent for a while, neither of them spoke.Shen Siniang secretly wondered what her sister was going to say, only to hear her sister sigh softly, "There is something, I don't know whether it is joy or worry."

"Is it related to me?" Shen Siniang raised her head and said, "Sister, please tell me?"

"General Gongsun, what do you think?" Shen Xiniang asked very straightforwardly, as if she was not good at making rounds.

Although she didn't say anything more, at the mention of the name, Shen Siniang's face immediately burned, and she understood a little bit in her heart, "Sister, my past is unknown to others, doesn't my sister know? What is the status of General Gongsun?" What kind of person? How dare Si Niang think about it? Sister Mo..."

At a loss for words, Shen Siniang lowered her head and fiddled with her scallion-like fingertips.

"What if he wants to?" Shen Xinniang asked again, "Are you willing?"

Shen Siniang lowered her head, looked at her fingers, and didn't speak for a moment.

Shen Xinniang waited for a while, without pressing any questions, and continued to mix her dyes, as if there was no sensitive topic mentioned between them.

The Nuan Pavilion was as quiet as if nothing had happened. Occasionally, a melodious bird song came in from outside the Nuan Pavilion, and I don't know who's ear or whose heart it fell into.

The two sisters sat there so quietly for an unknown how long, before Shen Siniang raised her head hesitantly, "People are good, I'm afraid my life will be bad."

Hearing this, Shen Xiniang stopped her hands and looked up at Shen Siniang, "Your life is in your own hands. Whether it's okay or not depends on what you think and how you live. With your first sentence, I understand."

Shen Siniang heard the words, raised her hands to cover her burning cheeks, lowered her head shyly, "Sister..."

"Then stop for a few days, then pack up and prepare to go back to Shen's house." Shen Xiniang said.

Shen Siniang's expression changed when she heard the words, "Go back to Shen's house?"

The current Shen family seems to her to be a very terrifying existence. There is Shen Shangshu who doesn't want to see her, and Shen Wuniang who cheats her. There is no sister, no support.

"Sister, I..." Shen Siniang's face turned red and white in an instant, and even her lips trembled slightly.

"Don't be afraid." Shen Xinniang immediately stretched out her hand to hold her slightly cool fingers, "Let's send a letter to General Gongsun first, and he will be ready before you go back to Shen's house. If General Gongsun proposes marriage, no one in Shen's house can make things difficult for you." you!"

Shen Siniang nodded, but the expression on her face did not ease much, she was still worried in her heart.

After staying for a few more days, before Shen Xiniang invited her, Gongsun Lan took the initiative to come to Prince Qi's Mansion and gave several sets of new clothes, food, precious medicinal materials and so on.

"Although I know that there is nothing missing in the palace, but during the cold clothes festival, I didn't care to give it to you. After some thought, the princess should not reject it, just accept it." Gongsun Lan said with a smile.

Shen Xinniang asked Dan Xin to take it down, and the things were carried into the warehouse.

Gongsun Lan looked around, "Why don't you see Fourth Lady coming? She's not at the house?"

The news of Gongsun Lan's arrival was naturally told to Shen Siniang, but Shen Xiniang's words made her blush when she heard the surname of Gongsun now, fearing that seeing Gongsun Lan would be embarrassing, so she excused not to see her.

"Although she lives in the mansion, she is not a member of the palace." Shen Xinniang said suddenly.

Gongsun Lan was slightly taken aback when she heard the words, and looked up at Shen Xinniang, "Huh? Why did you mention this all of a sudden?"

"She always wants to go back to her own home. Although the palace is spacious, I am her elder sister, and I treat her sincerely, but the little lady is inevitably delicate and sensitive. Even if the prince and I care about her, it can't stop her from living under the fence. feeling." Shen Xinniang said.

Gongsun Lan nodded inexplicably, "Xin Niang treats people sincerely, Si Niangzi certainly wouldn't think so."

Shen Xinniang smiled at her, "Really?"
