Hou Mansion has a daughter to marry

Chapter 37 Seeing the Reality Clearly
When they arrived at the imperial garden, the queen was not restrained, and drank tea with a group of wives in the gazebo, and let the princes and ladies go their own way.

"Xie Changning" was in the limelight today, and acquaintances and young ladies came forward in an endless stream to make friends, but Xie Chang'an just lowered his eyebrows and smiled, and didn't want to say more, and everyone knew that "Xie Changning" had a relationship with Yan Jun. Wang Shizi had a marriage contract, so the knowledge generally dispersed, and the ears were finally clean, and Xie Chang'an let out a sigh of relief.

Yan Qinglan was secretly anxious in the distance, but at this meeting everyone dispersed, Yan Qinglan found this gap and walked towards Xie Changan.It was still the same Zhilan Yushu, with smiling eyes, Xie Changan was delighted to see it, and smiled sweetly.

Looking at "Xie Changning" with a gentle smile, Yan Qinglan was more sure that she liked the gentle "Xie Changning" more in her heart, and thought over and over again: "Changning, your sword dance today really impressed me. I have never seen you so energetic..."

"You made the prince laugh, but don't dislike Changning's vulgarity..." Xie Changan said this deliberately, because he wanted to know whether Yan Qinglan liked himself who was wielding knives and swords, and couldn't help but look forward to it.

"Changning dances very well, but the sword has no eyes. Qinglan is afraid that you, Changning, will accidentally hurt herself. In comparison, playing the piano is more elegant. The sound of the piano is pleasant and the mind is at peace. Isn't it wonderful!"

Hearing this, Xie Chang'an couldn't hold back the smile for a moment, he forced a smile and said, "What your son said is absolutely true, Changning has no choice but today..." Yan Qinglan said it tactfully, but Xie Changan already understood that Yan Qinglan I don't like her sword dancing...

"Qinglan knows that Changning has no choice but to do so in the future. If it is possible in the future, I hope that Changning will stop dancing swords. The sword has no eyes, and it will hurt your reputation..." Yan Qinglan was afraid of saying "thank you" Chang Ning annoyed himself, and said: "Chang Ning has a high level of attainment in playing the piano, Qing Lan is still looking forward to hearing Chang Ning's piano sound again..."

Hearing this, Xie Chang'an was heartbroken. Not only did Yan Qinglan dislike her dancing with swords, but she even felt that dancing with swords was harmful to her reputation. Could it be that dancing with swords was a lowly thing?Didn't the imperial court rely on the protection of the border generals and countless soldiers to obtain this peace?Is it so unforgivable to dance with swords and swords... But what she is best at is dancing with swords, not such elegant things as playing the piano and painting.Xie Chang'an woke up in an instant. During this period of time, she had been immersed in Yan Qinglan's kindness to her, and was also lost in Yan Qinglan's gentleness, but now she clearly realized that Yan Qinglan was flattering her. The object of love is not her, and the person I love in my heart is naturally not her!Isn't she Xie Changning...

Xie Chang'an took a deep look at Yan Qinglan, turned and left without saying anything, but his heart cooled down little by little.Her heart was full of bitterness, and it was only when her love was deeply rooted that she realized that Yan Qinglan still loved the original Xie Changning, but Yan Qinglan hated her original self so much. Yan Qinglan approaching?
Yan Qinglan saw that "Xie Changning" left without saying a word, and there was an emotion in his eyes that he couldn't see. She immediately regretted it, and secretly blamed herself for being talkative... But, he just followed his own heart, and what he liked was still It was the gentle and caring "Xie Changning", not the high-spirited "Xie Changning" in front of me.While regretting, Yan Qinglan felt a strange feeling in her heart. Is Xie Changning who is so high-spirited today really the same person as the gentle and careless Xie Changning?Why is there such a big difference?
Xiao Yu originally wanted to follow Xie Changan to the Royal Garden, but he never expected to be summoned by the Empress Dowager, so he could only watch Xie Changan leave, and reluctantly followed the little eunuch to the Empress Dowager's Palace of Compassion.

Seeing Xiao Yu's gloomy expression, the queen mother hurriedly took Xiao Yu's hand and said, "Why? Are you so unhappy when you come to talk to the imperial grandmother? But you don't want to accompany the imperial grandmother because she is old? "

Seeing the sad look on the back of the mother, Xiao Yu hurriedly said: "Grandmother, Yu'er misses you so much, why doesn't she want to talk to you? It's just that Yu'er is a little troubled..." After speaking, her head drooped again.

Seeing this, the Empress Dowager knew that it must be related to "Xie Changning", she sighed, pulled Xiao Yu to sit beside her, and asked, "But is it related to that Xie Changning?"

Seeing Xiao Yu shaking her head, the Empress Dowager was puzzled and asked, "Don't you like Miss Xie's family?"

Xiao Yu nodded and said, "Grandmother, what Yu'er likes is Chang'an, not Xie Changning."

The queen mother was puzzled again, she had heard of Xie Changan, but didn't this girl disappear?The queen mother thought about it and asked: "Yu'er, tell the emperor's grandmother that you like the lady who dances the sword today?"

Xiao Yu nodded happily and said, "Grandmother, that is Chang'an, what Yu'er likes is Chang'an!" Hearing this, the Empress Dowager thought to herself, could it be that Xie Chang'an and Xie Chang'an look so similar, otherwise how could Jue'er Admit it?

Seeing that she couldn't find out why, the queen mother said that she was confused, and with a thought, she sent someone to the imperial garden to find the loyal princess.Concubine Zhongqin was anxious and uneasy along the way, thinking that something happened to Xiao Yu or caused some trouble. The incident happened to Xiao Yu in the palace back then.

When they arrived at the Palace of Compassion and Peace, seeing Xiao Yu honestly accompanying the Queen Mother, Princess Zhongqin let go of her hanging heart.The Empress Dowager briefly explained the reason for her summoning, and Princess Zhongqin said: "Empress Dowager, before Yu'er fell into trouble in Qingshan Temple and was rescued by the Second Miss of the Xie family, Yu'er has been thinking about the second Miss of the Xie family since then, but After Miss disappeared, Yu'er always regarded Xie Changning as Xie Changning. In fact, the two young ladies of the Xie family were not born alike. Xie Changan was born full of heroism, not as gentle and charming as Xie Changning. It's different on weekdays, don't blame Yu'er for always admitting mistakes..."

Hearing the words, the queen mother thought, her eyes were deep, she twirled the beads in her hand and said, "If Yu'er likes that Xie Chang'an, the reputation of Xie Chang'an is already ruined, let Xie Chang'an marry Yu'er, the Xie family will not marry her." refused..."

Xiao Yu, who was quietly eating cakes at the side, heard that the queen mother said that Xie Chang'an would marry her, and immediately clapped her hands happily: "Grandmother, Yu'er likes Chang'an, and if Chang'an marries Yu'er, Yu'er will be very happy, and Yu'er will be happy." Chang'an is fine!"

The loyal concubine was not as happy as Xiao Yu, on the contrary, she felt that the queen mother's move was very inappropriate, and said cautiously: "The queen mother, the minister's daughter-in-law intended to tell Yu'er about Xie Changan, and she also went to Rong'anhou's mansion to inquire about Xie Chang'an. Chang'an's whereabouts, but the Marquis of Rong'an said that there is no trace, and they don't want to find Xie Chang'an again..."

The Empress Dowager took a meaningful look at Concubine Zhongqin, and the beads in her hand spun faster, and said after a while: "Didn't Xie Chang'an leave Beijing since he was a child, and disappeared not long after returning to Beijing, except you and Yu'er, People in the capital probably have never seen that Xie Changan, who knows if Xie Changan and Xie Changning look alike?"

The loyal concubine was shocked when she heard the words. The empress dowager actually wanted Xie Changning to marry Xiao Yu under Xie Chang'an's name. This would not count as their bullying and stealing his wife, but it would also allow Xiao Yu to get his wish.

Concubine Zhongqin glanced at Xiao Yu, who was standing beside her happily, and couldn't help but be moved. Not to mention Xiao Yu, even she also liked Xie Changning, a dignified and generous lady. Although today's performance was surprising, Zhongqin The concubine feels that "Xie Changning" is gentle and virtuous in nature, but how could the Xie family agree to marry such an outstanding girl to her own Yu'er... Unless she is Xie Changan whose reputation has been ruined, then only It is said that she disappeared because she fell off a cliff and was rescued by her natal family. She has been in a coma and does not know her identity. This can somewhat save her reputation...

Concubine Zhongqin came back to her senses and realized that she had thought so long-term, she couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.Seeing the appearance of Princess Zhongqin, the queen mother immediately knew that Princess Zhongqin agreed, and said with a smile: "As for Xie Changning, if he died of a serious illness, what can others say? Then Rong Anhou wants to be employed now, or not?" What relationship is more reliable than being married to the royal family? I think Marquis Rong An will also be a smart person..."

Princess Zhongqin saw the exhausted look on the queen mother, and said with great insight: "Queen mother, it is your daughter-in-law who is unfilial, which makes you worry about Yu'er. It's getting late, queen mother, please rest earlier!" Xiao Yu said: "Yu'er, say a few words to the imperial grandmother and we will go back."

"Grandmother, Yu'er likes Chang'an, do you think it's true for Yu'er to marry Chang'an?" Xiao Yu was afraid of being happy in vain, Xie Chang'an clearly had a marriage contract with Prince Yan, and immediately confirmed it again.

The queen mother smiled and said: "Yu'er, has the imperial grandmother ever lied to you? Don't worry, the imperial grandmother will definitely let Xie Chang'an marry Yu'er, but Yu'er, you have to promise the imperial grandmother that you can't tell this matter, otherwise, the emperor will marry you." Grandmother won't let that Xie Changan marry you!"

Xiao Yu nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice and promised: "Yu'er will never say anything! The emperor's grandmother is the best, and Yu'er likes the emperor's grandmother the most! Emperor's grandmother, Yu'er will come to see you some other day!" The queen mother was very happy.

"Mother, let's go home quickly, I want to tell big brother the good news..." After finishing speaking, he quickly covered his mouth and peeked at the queen mother.Seeing Xiao Yu being so funny, the queen mother pretended to be angry and said, "Yu'er, you promised the emperor's grandmother!"

Xiao Yu looked flustered and said anxiously: "Grandmother, Yu'er is wrong, Yu'er promises not to tell anyone, not even my elder brother!" As he spoke, his voice became softer...

Seeing this, the queen mother smiled and said: "Go back, Yu'er, remember you can only tell your elder brother, and the people around you can't say any more!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yu joyfully went home with Princess Zhongqin. He wanted to tell his elder brother the good news quickly. Thanks to his elder brother for letting him persevere, otherwise he would not be able to get Changan to be his daughter-in-law...
