Chapter 258 Pei Family Wants to Marry
Jiang Xinyue patted her head lovingly: "When you grow up to be as old as your elder sister, you will be taller than your elder sister."
"You two sisters are so affectionate, but you don't take your mother seriously."
Ruan joked, and looked at the more and more beautiful eldest daughter with a little worry: "Sister Yue, your father told me this morning that you and the emperor...is it true?"
She didn't dare to say the word "quarrel", always thinking that quarreling with the emperor was something she dared not even dream of.
"It's true."
Jiang Xinyue nodded: "The concubine suspected that I had an affair with a painter in the palace, and brought the emperor to block me and the painter in the bamboo forest, insisting that I wanted to elope with the painter. The emperor was jealous and wanted to kill me, so I scolded him and drove him away."
Good guy!
This short explanation shocked Ruan and Jiang Xinyan a thousand times.
Having an affair with a painter, eloping, being caught, there were bystanders, the emperor was jealous, scolding the emperor, and driving the emperor away.
Whether you look at this sentence separately or together, not a few words are wasted.
"What's that expression, mother?"
Jiang Xinyue was amused by her shocked look: "Now that I'm sitting here well, it means that I haven't done those unfounded things. I have proved my innocence. Mother, don't be afraid."
"That's good, that's good..."
Ruan patted her chest, but then reacted, what's good about it?
Her daughter was suspected of having an affair with a man outside, and she dared to quarrel with the emperor. It was not good no matter how you look at it!
She wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it more tactfully so that her daughter would not resist and get annoyed.
"I think the emperor feels sorry for my sister, and he knows he is wrong."
Jiang Xinyan comforted Ruan: "I just saw a palace maid carrying a lot of precious jewelry downstairs. It should be sent by the emperor's brother-in-law to make my sister calm down. Mother is really too worried. My sister must have her reasons for doing this."
The reason is to take advantage of Emperor Xuanwu's every time he is wronged to PUA him and KTV him, so that he will trust himself unconditionally in the future.
People will not cherish people, things, and things that are easily obtained.
Emperor Xuanwu is the emperor. In this world, there is nothing he can't get as long as he wants.
Only women try their best to please him, and he never needs to think about anything. Often, he just needs to beckon his finger, and countless women will come to him.
The dignified and self-respecting empress, the scheming and vicious Concubine De, the arrogant and straightforward Concubine Ligui, the white moonlight Concubine Shu, Concubine Yu, Concubine Rong...
These women have their own merits, but they all bow down to Emperor Xuanwu's dragon robe, fighting for his favor, and plotting for him.
They didn't let the emperor suffer the pain of love, so even if Concubine Shu was the emperor's white moonlight, it seemed so easy to give up.
Jiang Xinyue just wanted him to spend time on her, scratch his ears and cheeks for her, and keep guessing when she would forgive him?
Let the emperor test step by step, to what extent she would be satisfied.
In this way, the emperor can clearly realize how difficult she is to coax.
The more you give, the more reluctant you will be to give up even if you don't love him anymore, because the cost is too high and the feelings you have given are too deep, and you can't afford to lose.
Jiang Xinyue did not lose herself in the favor of Emperor Xuanwu, and she didn't think she was so great.
She always planned ahead and chose to pave her future when the emperor loved her the most.
In this way, even if the emperor doesn't love her anymore and has someone else in his heart, he will always be reluctant, or unwilling to hurt her.
Jiang Xinyue is always vigilant and thinks about the future retreat while the love is strong.
She may not be the queen, but she must be the queen mother. If she
doesn't become the queen, she can directly skip being the emperor's mother. When she becomes the queen mother, she can just spread her hands and directly support herself in her old age.
How comfortable it is!
I almost laughed to death just thinking about it.
Seeing that both her elder and younger daughters looked like nothing was wrong, Ruan relaxed.
But then she looked at Jiang Xinyue with a sad face: "Sister Yue, someone from the Pei family came and wanted to arrange a marriage between your sister and the eldest grandson of the Pei family. Your father couldn't make up his mind, so he asked me to ask your opinion."
The eldest grandson of Pei Zhongshu, isn't that Pei Wu's brother?
What does Pei Zhongshu think?
Although neither Li Guifei nor Li Guifei's mother died at the hands of Jiang Xinyue, they both had a thousand connections with Jiang Xinyue.
Pei was even executed by the emperor because she brought the snake girl into the palace to poison Jiang Xinyue.
For every reason, they should be mortal enemies, so why did he come to ask to marry her sister?
Seeing her in deep thought, Jiang Xinyan added, "It's the eldest son of Pei Zhongshu's second son, named Pei Zhishuo, who is seventeen years old this year. My father said that he has investigated privately. This Pei Zhishuo is extremely talented, gentle in temperament, and looks like Pan An. He is one of the eight talents in the capital."
"Sister, have you seen this Pei Zhishuo?"
"Well..."
Jiang Xinyan nodded: "This time he came to the palace to escape the summer heat, he also came with his grandfather. I met him once on the road. He looks good, but..."
She was cautious, not knowing whether she should say this.
Jiang Xinyue glanced at Shuangjiang, and Shuangjiang immediately understood: "The ice here seems to be running out, you guys, come out with me."
Several maids and eunuchs were taken away, and Xiao Xiangzi followed them out and stood guard outside the door. The queen was talking to her family in private, and they couldn't be eavesdropped by others.
After everyone else left, Jiang Xinyan leaned over to her elder sister's ear and whispered a few words. Then she blushed and looked embarrassed.
"So exciting?"
Jiang Xinyue widened her eyes and looked at Ruan who was standing beside her: "Your father told his sister about this kind of person? What's wrong with him? Is he crazy?"
Ruan put her index finger on her mouth and smacked: "Your father doesn't know yet. How can you tell others about this kind of thing?"
Jiang Xinyue sneered: "The Pei family is shameless. They want my sister to suffer this stupid loss. How can such a good thing happen?"
She patted the uneasy Jiang Xinyan: "You stay in Changchun Fairy House for a few days. No matter where you go, stay with my sister. I want to see if he has the guts to do that." She
turned and said to Ruan: "There are many people in the palace, and mother should be more careful. Don't fall into the trap of bad people. As long as father is not busy, stay with him. If father is busy, you should bring more servants with you. In short, you can't be alone. Do you understand?"
Seeing that she suddenly became serious, Ruan nodded quickly: "I've made a note and I will definitely not cause trouble for you."
"My daughter is not afraid that you will cause trouble."
Jiang Xinyue also held her hand: "My daughter does not want you to encounter any danger, but if you really encounter it, don't be afraid, send someone to find me, no matter what trouble your mother encounters, your daughter will help you solve it."
Just don't lose your composure.
