Jiang Xuening is happy, but some people are not happy.
Until now, who still can't see that Princess Leyang did all this for Jiang Xuening?
Although Jiang Xuehui's entry into the palace was quite eye-catching, smart people would be aware of Jiang Xuening who stood behind this incident.
When she uttered the word "happy", countless people in the hall darkened their faces secretly, even if they had a good mood for fun, this moment was completely destroyed.
Next, Shen Zhiyi also invited Jiang Xuehui to play together.
Several people in the crowd were obviously forced to smile and accompany, and Xiao Shu never said a word since Jiang Xuehui appeared with that square brocade handkerchief.
At night, Yang Zhizhai, palace lanterns are lit everywhere.
After returning from Mingfeng Palace, she finally got her own room. This eldest lady of the Xiao family and the niece of the empress dowager in the harem finally let all other expressions disappear on her face without the attention of others. Nothing, only the kind of calm that is almost cold and silent.
In the end, he raised his hand and gently pressed his forehead.
Xiao Shu slowly closed her eyes, but the arcs of her fingers were tense, and when she opened her eyes again, she directly swept the teacup on the table to the ground!
The palace attendant next to her was startled, and stared at her with wide eyes.
Xiao Shu's chest rose and fell slightly, but she didn't look at others.
What came to her mind was the embroidered handkerchief that fell from his sleeve when she met Linzi King Shen Jie, and the one she saw on Jiang Xuehui today...
Others may have forgotten.
But she still remembers it clearly.
It's not Jiang Xuening, that person is not Jiang Xuening!
But who could have imagined it?
During this period of time in the palace, Shen Jie also paid attention to Jiang Xuening everywhere, and his words were full of caring intentions. When something happened in the Yongyi Hou's mansion, Yan Lin even directly disregarded Jiang Xuening's relationship.
All kinds of clues point to her.
So last time I will...
The fingers on the table were clenched little by little, and Xiao Shu could only feel a kind of taunting by accident: not only did she not get rid of the real threat, but she also showed traces, and established a real threat for herself. strong enemy...
After all, Jiang Xuening is still perceptive.
At the same time, the atmosphere in Jiang Xuening's room was quite delicate.
After all the troubles of Princess Leyang, there are already all kinds of decorations here, soft and delicate, and a calligraphy and painting hanging on the wall is the authentic work of famous people in the previous dynasty.
Jiang Xuehui is a knowledgeable person who can tell the difference at a glance.
The palace people had already arranged her room, but it was no different from other companions. But when she was invited to visit Jiang Xuening's room, she easily discovered the huge gap between the two, the chasm of nature, so she had a very intuitive and clear understanding of how much her sister was favored in the palace.
Jiang Xuening had already changed out of the complicated palace attire, only wearing a simple sky blue pleated skirt with twigs and lotus patterns, and even broke up the bun that she painstakingly **** before, and her long black hair was scattered behind her head. The strands were gently entangled with her slender fingers and rolled into rolls.
She only looked at Jiang Xuehui with a smile that was not a smile.
Sitting opposite her, Jiang Xuehui was as calm as water, and said, "What exactly do you want me to do by letting me enter the palace?"
There was a qin in front of Jiang Xuening, but it was not Jiaoan, it was just an ordinary qin.
She stretched out her fingers and fiddled lightly.
When I heard the trembling rhyme, I calmed down and said: "They all came to this palace, and they did bring that embroidered handkerchief. Big sister would say that she didn't know why I let you into the palace, but it would be too false some?"
Jiang Xuehui then looked down at the square embroidered handkerchief, and sighed softly: "How much you hate me and what our relationship is, you and I know very well. If you say that you want to help me, I definitely don't believe it."
Her eyebrows and eyes are actually a little bit like Wanniang.
Jiang Xuening looked at it, and the fingers plucking the strings stopped for a while, but what she remembered was what she had done in her previous life because she was jealous of the person in front of her: she accidentally learned that the king of Linzi, Shen Jie, was secretly interested in the embroidered handkerchief. After becoming the master, she tried every means to prevent Jiang Xuehui from participating in the selection of concubines, but she took this embroidered handkerchief and "met" with Shen Jie again. So she snatched Jiang Xuehui's marriage, became the princess of Linzi, and even the queen, and completely trampled this "sister" she hated under her feet.
But is it happy in the end?
It seems that I am not very happy, nor very proud.
Jiang Xuehui is still doing well.
Sometimes, Jiang Xuening even thought: She stole Jiang Xuehui's marriage, did Jiang Xuehui know it?
She failed to show off to her from beginning to end.
Because Jiang Xuehui married away and left the capital shortly after she was chosen as Princess Linzi, so she had no chance to tell this sister the truth, show off to her, and arouse her hatred.
"It's good that you know that I won't help you. Every step of the palace is dangerous. Some people misunderstood something and used the means that should have been used on you, but on me. Didn't they almost die?" Jiang Xuening She pursed her lips mockingly, recalling the sudden change in Xiao Shu's face today, she really felt refreshed, "Someone saw you bring that square embroidered handkerchief today, and her face changed. I think my sister will be in the palace in the future. It won’t be very satisfactory. I, of course, just sit on the sidelines and watch the tigers fight.”
If it were someone else, they might not be able to guess who framed him that time.
After all, everything is clueless.
But Xiao Shu was unlucky because she met not only Jiang Xuening, but also the reborn Jiang Xuening. Nowadays, no one knows Xiao Shu's covetousness for the position of future empress, but Jiang Xuening fought her to the death in her previous life, but she knew from the very beginning that under that seemingly superior face, there were also hidden ambitions and raging desires. desire.
There are so many clues, it's hard not to doubt her!
When Jiang Xuehui heard her words, she immediately remembered what she had heard a few days ago: Sister Ning's frame in the palace was related to the rebellion of the Heavenly Sect and the rebellious party, and she almost lost her life!
The bottom of my heart suddenly became awe-inspiring.
It wasn't until this moment that she vaguely understood: that incident was actually related to herself!
Naturally, Jiang Xuening could tell her the ins and outs, so that she could be wary of Xiao Shu, but after all, she couldn't help but care about Jiang Xuehui, and this sister was indeed not stupid, she didn't need to say it, and she didn't bother to say it.
So we changed the subject.
She was fiddling with her fingering, thinking that she must not make any mistakes when she went to Xie Wei to learn the piano tomorrow, but she said casually: "Do you know whose hand the square embroidered handkerchief I lost fell into?" ?”
Jiang Xuehui stared at her steadfastly, finally lowered her eyes, and said slowly: "I probably know."
"Zheng—"
Jiang Xuening's fingers trembled slightly, and even the sound of the piano trembled.
She suddenly raised her hand and looked back at Jiang Xuehui, but her eyes were suddenly sharp, as if she wanted to see through her at this moment!
Know!
Jiang Xuehui actually said that she "probably knows"!
If she already knew at this time, in the last life she took her embroidered handkerchief to "encounter" with Shen Jie and stole her marriage, Jiang Xuehui should also know about it!
But she never had it...
Jiang Xuening even thought that she didn't know from the beginning to the end!
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Xuehui originally thought that this second younger sister who had always hated her should have understood the whole picture of what happened today. But why, after she answered truthfully, sister Ning showed such an expression instead?
She doesn't quite understand.
"..."
Jiang Xuening did not speak for a long time.
Looking down at the piano in front of him, he felt that he was no longer in the mood to practice, so he stretched out his hand to push the piano, and said coldly: "I'm tired, and I've said enough of what I need to say, please go back." .”
She has always had such a moody temperament, it is rare to be able to sit down and talk to her patiently for a while, and it is not surprising that the order to evict her is issued at this moment.
Although Jiang Xuehui felt that she had something to say, she didn't want to ask too much.
So he got up, told her to go to bed early and rested, pushed the door and went out.
That night, Jiang Xuening was unable to fall asleep again.
The next morning, when I went to Fengchen Palace for class, the palace staff added an extra seat in the second row for Jiang Xuehui to sit down, and the original eight companions officially became nine.
The gentlemen who came to teach were naturally very surprised.
Because Jiang Xuehui joined in midway, and they hadn't learned the lessons they taught in the past, the gentlemen couldn't help but feel a little bit worried. Some of the crowd didn't like Jiang Xuehui very much, or transferred their hatred towards Jiang Xuening to her. Although they all heard that the eldest girl of the Jiang family was different from the ignorant second girl, she was a real lady of the family, but the palace After all, what the teacher taught was different, and Jiang Xuehui couldn't possibly know everything, so they all waited to see a good show, and wanted to see her make a fool of herself in public.
But what happened next was like a slap in the face—
Jiang Xuehui not only knows how, but also knows everything!
Although the lintel of the Jiang family is not considered high, the Meng family really raised Jiang Xuening as a noble lady. She is proficient in poetry, poetry, etiquette and advances and retreats!
It's just that she usually doesn't like to show off, and she rarely shows it in front of others, so few people know about it.
Now, because he had to answer the gentlemen's questions in the palace, and because he didn't know the situation of the court, he didn't dare to be half-hearted and perfunctory. He showed great seriousness and easily won the amazement of the gentlemen.
The current gentlemen are different from the ones Jiang Xuening encountered when he first entered the palace. After what happened to Zhao Yanhong, everyone probably knows what kind of person Xie Wei is, and they no longer dare to favor Xiao Shu on the surface.
Jiang Xuehui is Jiang Xuening's older sister.
Who in this palace doesn't know that Jiang Xuening is under the care of His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess? They really wanted to flatter, but Jiang Xuening's studies were too poor, no matter how thick-skinned they were, they couldn't boast.
Well done, Jiang Xuehui is here!
Just right!
Firstly, she is Jiang Xuening's elder sister, and she was also selected into the palace by the eldest princess; secondly, she is well-mannered, gentle and virtuous, and will not embarrass her husband, and she is not at all like Jiang Xuening's prickly head; thirdly, she is very knowledgeable, It is really rare to be familiar with poetry and books.
Of course, the gentlemen no longer hesitate to praise, and praised Jiang Xuehui a lot.
However, in just two or three days, Jiang Xuehui, who had just entered the palace, had already become a favorite and admiration of the gentlemen in Fengchen Palace.
Originally, Xiao Shu was the only one in Fengchen Palace.
Now that Cheng Yaojin appeared on the way, he gradually suppressed Xiao Shu's radiance, the two moons were competing for brilliance, and it was bright for a while, which is really amazing.
Whether Xiao Shu is happy or not is difficult for others to tell.
But Jiang Xuening knew her temperament.
In the past, she was able to be detached and clean, but because no one could pose a threat to her. But once he felt threatened, the original indifference would naturally be in jeopardy due to the change of the situation.
So, just thinking about Xiao Shu's current mood, Jiang Xuening felt extremely happy in her heart——
no way.
What's more interesting is that Jiang Xuehui's background is not as good as Xiao Shu's. Although she is very popular with her husband in the Fengchen Palace, she has no arrogance in her daily life and is approachable and approachable.
Even Chen Shuyi is willing to talk to her.
Moreover, there have always been rumors in Beijing that the relationship between the two sisters of the Jiang family has always been bad. Jiang Xuening is domineering and domineering in the mansion, always bullying this soft-spoken elder sister. Therefore, the few who had a bad relationship with Jiang Xuening approached Jiang Xuehui intentionally or unintentionally, wanting to make friends with her.
You Yue felt that another big help had come, so she went to Jiang Xuehui's side as she was walking on the road, and said to her with a smile: "When I saw Miss Jiang at various banquets in the past, I always knew that Miss Jiang was Those who are capable, I never expected to be so good. Compared with the ignorant Jiang Er girl, she is really much better, one in the sky and one in the ground!"
Jiang Xuehui glanced at her and said nothing.
Chen Shuyi also said calmly beside her: "Obviously you are the eldest daughter of the family, and your knowledge and talents are much higher than your sister, but it is really a strange story to swallow your breath and be bullied by her in the mansion. It's you, when you encounter this kind of corrupt family style, ignorant and incompetent, you must take the opportunity to treat her well! Otherwise, the whole family's reputation will be completely ruined by her!"
In the past few days, everyone has mentioned Jiang Xuening in front of Jiang Xuehui. Jiang Xuehui always listens and does not refute. Everyone agrees that the quarrel between the two sisters is true, so the words behind the back gradually become presumptuous stand up.
Everyone felt that Jiang Xuehui should be with them.
But who would have expected that when Chen Shuyi said this, Jiang Xuehui's delicate eyebrows frowned, and she stopped to look at her, and said indifferently: "Although my second sister is indeed ignorant, it is not enough to ruin the style of the family and throw everything away." The reputation of the mansion is so high. Ms. Shuyi's words are a bit biased and unfair. Although my Jiang mansion is not as good as some high-ranking families, the discipline at home is also strict. If my sister has any faults, my own father and mother will worry about it. Use Miss Shuyi to talk too much?"
Everyone was stunned.
Jiang Xuehui actually spoke for Jiang Xuening!
The relationship between the two sisters has always been bad? !
Chen Shuyi's complexion changed slightly, her pupils shrank slightly, and she looked at Jiang Xuehui.
Jiang Xuehui looked back at her neither humble nor overbearing.
You Yue couldn't help but gasped, and then she recalled with everyone: no matter how bad the family relationship is, they are all sisters named Jiang, sisters from the same family! The so-called "sister" means that I will swear ten thousand words by myself when I get home, and I will not allow others to slander at will! What's more, with the family's reputation and the family's honor and disgrace in mind, it's just a few cryptic words in the past. If you want to name and name someone who corrupts the family style, how can Jiang Xuehui not get angry?
This time no one can answer.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
Just at this time, Jiang Xuening held a volume of books in his hand, opened the door of his room, and walked out from the inside. When he looked up from a distance, he saw them outside Yangzhizhai, and it was even more difficult to speak.
Zhou Baoying, who was still standing among the crowd, looked at Jiang Xuening curiously, and asked softly, "We were talking about you with Big Sister Jiang, Second Sister Jiang, are you going to learn the piano again?"
As soon as Jiang Xuening saw this group of people gathered together, she knew they had nothing good to say.
Zhou Baoying said that when everyone was talking about her, some people's faces changed.
She smiled inwardly, and said, "I'll go see if Mr. Xie is here."
Xie Wei told her last time that he asked her to go to the side hall to practice **** the next day, but when she arrived the next day, Xie Wei didn't show up.
The palace man said that he was busy with affairs in the previous court and couldn't get away for the time being.
For several days, he didn't show up in Fengchen Palace, and he didn't attend a single class. It stands to reason that Jiang Xuening would not go to the side hall to learn the piano, but she didn't know when Xie Wei would finish his work, and the palace people didn't know even more, so she had to go to the side hall every day to wait for a moment.
If Xie Wei doesn't come, she will leave.
It is the same today.
At this moment, Shen Zhiyi was not there.
Although You Yue was completely scared of Jiang Xuening, she would never dare to speak in front of her, but there was Chen Shuyi beside her.
Hearing Jiang Xuening talk about learning the piano, she chuckled lightly, and then glanced at Jiang Xuehui, who was not giving her face just now, and said meaningfully: "I have always heard that Mr. Xie and Lord Jiang have old friends, and the second girl Jiang is learning the piano. She is so worrying, and she is willing to take the trouble to teach. Now Miss Jiang is also in the palace, and she is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It is a pity that the husband has been busy recently and has not come to teach, otherwise, seeing such beautiful jade as Miss Jiang, he must be very happy I am happy. After all, I have been facing Deadwood for too long, and I really feel sorry for Mr. Xie..."
There was a hint of provocation in the words.
But Jiang Xuehui didn't answer.
Even Jiang Xuening didn't seem to be angry at all, she was still smiling and said to Chen Shuyi: "Xue Ning wrote down what Miss Shuyi said today, and I will definitely tell her when I see His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess tomorrow."
"you!"
Chen Shuyi never expected that she would say such a thing, and threatened her with a small report face to face!
Choking up in one breath, his face was extremely ugly.
Thinking of the scene of being reprimanded by Princess Leyang that day, his body trembled slightly—so angry!
Jiang Xuening didn't even bother to look at her any more, so she snorted coldly, took the book in her hand, and walked straight past her, not paying attention to this gang of people at all. With a straight back, he strode towards Fengchen Hall.
There was only a young **** guarding the gate of the hall.
Jiang Xuening walked up the steps and asked, "Is Mr. Xie here today?"
The little **** shook his head, opened the door for her, and replied: "There is no news. But I heard that Mr. Xie was busy in the previous court. He didn't close his eyes for two nights. He returned to the mansion last night. He might come today."
Jiang Xuening then nodded and entered the hall.
Emei is hung high on the wall, while Jiaoan is placed flat on the piano table.
After entering the hall, she sat down at the piano table.
Put down the scroll in your hand, it is a medical book.
That day, she ran into Zhang Zhe on the street and saw him carrying the medicine, she suddenly remembered that Zhang Zhe's mother was not in good health and had a headache. It just so happened that Xie Wei was busy these few days, and she had time to spare while practicing the piano, so she asked Shen Zhiyi to borrow a medical book from the Imperial Hospital to read. In the early years, she grew up in the countryside, and she also played with traveling doctors, but she was proficient in medical science, and medical writing was not difficult, but she could understand it after reading it slowly.
But today, when the medical book was put down, Jiang Xuening just stared blankly.
Obviously letting Jiang Xuehui enter the palace was already planned on the day she was framed by Xiao Shu. Her elder sister has always been excellent, not to mention the embroidered handkerchief, even if she doesn't have it, she can let Xiao Shu know. There are people, there is a sky beyond the sky, she is not the only one who stands out from the rest of the world.
But seeing Jiang Xuehui enter the palace, she was not as calm as she thought.
Is it because she knew very early on that the embroidered handkerchief was picked up by Shen Jie?
Or is it because Jiang Xuehui is indeed as good as others say?
She grew up in the countryside, Jiang Xuehui grew up in the capital;
What she played was stepping on water spear fish, and Jiang Xuehui studied piano, chess, calligraphy and painting;
She is so stubborn that she doesn't know how to advance and retreat, but Jiang Xuehui is virtuous and dignified;
…
In her previous life, she was dissatisfied, jealous, and even hated because of this.
And in this life, it is not an easy task to frankly accept that you are not as good as others.
One is Miss Jiang and the other is Miss Jiang.
It seems to be born to compete.
Not only are others comparing them, even she can't help but subconsciously compare them...
The medical books were placed in front of him, Jiang Xuening just stared at the words on the cover in a daze, lost in thought for a while.
She didn't even notice that someone came in from outside.
Today Xie Wei changed into that dusty blue Taoist robe, a green jade hairpin is very simple, he just came to visit the side hall of Fengchen Palace, but when he got to the door, he heard the little **** say that Miss Jiang Now, there are some surprises.
He opened the door and went in.
Jiang Xuening was still sitting at the piano table, not understanding.
Xie Wei was holding a red-approved memorial in his hand, and his footsteps made no sound when he stepped on the blanket. He stood behind her, looked over her shoulder, and saw the medical book in front of her at a glance.
"..."
There was silence.
The sweet taste of blood mixed with the bitterness of the herbs rose up in the mouth of the old year, Xie Wei couldn't help but think: this little quack doctor who almost killed him back then, the low-ranking doctor, is thinking about some harmful prescription ?
This looks like a miracle.
He walked over, held up the memorial, tapped lightly on her head, and said: "Wake up!"
Jiang Xuening was knocked down, startled, almost jumped up from her seat.
When she looked up, Xie Wei walked past her with a smile on his lips, with an imperceptible tiredness on his expression, his face seemed paler than the last time we saw her.
Xie Wei threw the memorial on the desk, went to the wall and raised his hand, then hugged Emei down, put it on his piano table, took off the piano bag, slapped his five fingers lightly to test the sound, his head Without lifting it, he said: "I heard that the second girl Ning has come these few days, she must have listened to Xie's words, and she knows fingering, right?"
Ning Er...
When Jiang Xuening heard these two words, she was so stunned that she didn't even listen to what he said later.
Why didn't she ever feel that such a weird title, such a somewhat inappropriate word, sounded so pleasing to the ear, so flattering?
Jiang Xuening, Jiang Xuehui.
Jiang, is the family name;
Snow, but sorted characters;
There is only one word "Ning", which belongs to her and distinguishes her from others.
In the last life, when I met Xie Wei on the way back to Beijing, Xie Wei called her "Second Miss Jiang" like others; "Jiang Er" is called "Ning Er" instead.
This life hasn't changed.
But she never understood why, nor did she know what was wrong with Xie Wei's mind. But in the previous life, she didn't want to have any contact with Xie Wei. In this life, she was too afraid at the beginning, but later she got used to it. She never asked, and rarely thought about why he called her like that.
There were some waves in the bottom of my heart, but it was full of sadness.
Everyone called her "Second Miss Jiang". In the past, I didn't think that when I had Jiang Xuehui, it was how I heard it, how harsh it was.
Jiang Xuening's eyes were hot.
She has always known that Xie Wei's insight into people's hearts is unmatched by anyone, and she has learned from it in the past. But they didn't know that this person had seen through her so early, so early, and instead of calling him "Jiang Er", he called him "Ning Er". No wonder everyone in the government and the public praised her. It's just that she was really dull in her previous life, and she didn't understand...
Obviously this person spoke harshly to her in the previous life, hurt her face, and made her embarrassed. In this life, she is also afraid of him, and because Xueqin doesn't have a good impression of him, she deeply feels that he is disgusting.
But with these two words, she actually felt that Xie Wei didn't seem to be that exaggerated.
Jiang Xuening sat at the piano table, looked at him, and forgot to answer.
Xie Wei said the words, but he didn't hear back for a long time, he frowned, and looked up, but saw the girl's black and white eyes were looking straight at him, the rims of the eyes were a little red, the eyelashes trembled, and the teardrops in the eye sockets Then scroll down.
Why is Hao Duan Duan crying again!
He paused, raised his hand to pinch his eyebrows, felt a headache, and sighed helplessly: "Who recruited you again?"
