really!
Wei Hanzhang narrowed his eyes and bowed solemnly: "Thank you for your two helpings."
"You're welcome," Chen Zishu nodded slightly, his smile unchanged, and said softly: "Take it, this ointment will be good for the wounds on your face."
Wei Hanzhang: "..."
There were so many people and so many eyes. She really didn't want to talk to the same man for too long, so she pursed her lips and declined again: "It's really not necessary."
After saying that, without any regard for etiquette, he pulled his cousin away quickly without waiting for the other party's reaction.
………………
On the carriage back home, Wei Hanshuang didn't seem to have recovered from the scene just now. She looked at her cousin and didn't know what she was thinking.
Wei Hanzhang didn't realize it. She drank two cups of tea in a row to relieve the long-pressed anger in her heart. She took a deep breath to calm down and apologized: "I have caused trouble to my sister today."
"What are you talking about? We are sisters. If we can't write two characters in one sentence, how can I still watch you being made difficult for and remain silent?"
Thinking of what happened before, Wei Hanshuang was also a little confused: "But why did Qi Yuxiao target you?"
"Today is the first time I see her," Wei Hanzhang smiled bitterly: "I wish I knew where I offended her."
These days, she didn't even leave the house. She went to the yard next door every day. Even if she wanted to offend someone, she had no place to offend him.
Wei Hanzhang really didn't understand what provoked the princess.
The first time I met this noble princess, I was warned to let go of things that didn't belong to her...
It sounds like she has taken a liking to something of her own?
Wei Hanshuang suddenly said, "Speaking of which, I heard Liniang say something the day before yesterday. Doesn't it really have anything to do with it?"
Wei Hanzhang looked sideways at her: "What's the matter?"
"The Gu family's house in Beijing was given by the imperial court, and it happens to be next door to Li's house." Wei Hanshuang said hesitantly with a worried look in his eyes: "Linang said she saw Qi Yuxiao entering Gu's house more than once."
? ? Wei Hanzhang was stunned for a long time.
Princess Chengyi goes to the Gu family? more than once? The Gu family is a prominent family in Xuzhou in the south of the Yangtze River, but has no foundation in the capital. Not to mention having contact with the Duke of Qi, even ordinary noble families don't know a few of them.
Qi Yuxiao, such an arrogant noble girl, actually came to visit her? Combined with that sentence: let go of things that don't belong to her as soon as possible, there is nothing unclear about it.
Did Qi Yuxiao fall in love with Gu Yunran, and when she learned that she was planning to get married to her sweetheart, she came to seek trouble out of jealousy?
So... today's disaster... was caused by Gu Yunran, and she was made to suffer the disaster?
Wei Hanzhang reasoned things out clearly, and after straightening out his thoughts, he looked up and saw Wei Hanshuang's worried face.
She was stunned and said with a smile: "Sixth sister, don't worry, it's useless for her to take a fancy to her. Gu Yunran definitely doesn't have that intention. It doesn't matter if there are some twists and turns in the marriage. Good things come in hard times."
Childhood sweethearts grew up together, and Wei Hanzhang still had some confidence in this. She would only be pessimistic about the marriage a few years or more than ten years later, but for now, Gu Yunran's young heart was all about her. There is absolutely no duplicity in the body.
"..." Wei Hanshuang saw her innocent little face. After being silent for a few seconds, Wei Hanshuang opened the carriage curtain and looked to both sides to make sure no one was approaching. Then he whispered: "Why hasn't Mr. Gu family come to look for you these days?"
"that is because……"
"Ran Ran!" Wei Hanshuang interrupted her and said angrily: "Do you know how the marriage between Princess Changle and the Duke of Qi came about?"
Wei Hanzhang was stunned by her question and remembered the 'secret stories' Jiang had told her that were known to everyone in the capital, one of which was about Princess said that the current prince-in-law, the eldest son of the Duke of Qi, had a wife before, and was not from a small family. She was the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Ziyi, and she was also a famous and talented woman in the capital at that time.
The two were talented and good-looking, with similar family backgrounds, and they were married. Less than two years after their marriage, their eldest son was born, and their relationship was even more sweet.
It wasn't until Prince Qi came to the palace to report on his duties that Princess Changle bumped into her. At that time, Princess Changle had just grown hair and was at the age of Huaichun. When she saw this Prince, her whole heart fell on him.
After finding out his identity and knowing that he already had a wife, she refused to give up and begged His Majesty to find her a hand in marriage.
Princess Changle is His Majesty's eldest daughter. She can't get anything she wants, including men.
A little bit of news came out in the palace. Within a few days, Prince Qi divorced his wife. Within three months, Princess Changle entered the palace with great grace.
At this point, it was just the royal princess domineeringly grabbing a man, but the subsequent consequences were even more frightening.
The good daughter was abandoned and returned home, but the Ziyi Hou Mansion did not dare to seek justice for her. They could only close the door and endure the anger, and since then they have been outside the circle of the aristocratic family.
I thought that after a few years, no one would talk about it and the matter would be over. Unexpectedly, within a year, something happened that instantly overturned the century-old prince's mansion.
The reason was that Zi Yihou, who had always been cautious in his words and deeds, suddenly made wild and arrogant remarks after being drunk. Every word was filled with dissatisfaction with the emperor and the father and daughter of the Tian family.
On the second day, he was accused of "disobedience" by his political opponents in the court.
The emperor was furious, and with a wave of his imperial pen, he sentenced all the men in the Ziyi Hou Mansion to be beheaded, and the women were sent to the Jiaofang Division.
From then on, the matter of the princess raping her husband was finally over.
When it comes to this matter, the father and daughter of the Tian family are actually unreasonable. However, this is the ancient time when the king let his ministers die and they had to die. The king who holds the power of life and death is himself justified.
Your Majesty's eldest daughter just wants a man. Even if she breaks her marriage and gets her, there is nothing wrong with that.
And now Princess Changle's daughter also falls in love with Gu Yunran, who is discussing marriage...
Wei Hanzhang knew that his cousin was worried that his marriage would be disrupted by Qi Yuxiao, the princess's daughter.
This princess who was pampered and grew up is just like Princess Changle's domineering temperament when she was young. Maybe she will do whatever it takes to get her wish for the man she likes.
If that was really the case, then...it can only be said that she and Gu Yunran were not destined to be married.
...............
The fact that the two girls in the family were being made difficult by the princess quickly spread to the ears of the elders of the Wei Mansion.
They were better informed, and Qi Yuxiao had no intention of covering up his whereabouts when he went to the Gu Mansion... But after a little exploration, he knew the whole story of this difficulty.
If the juniors had a few quarrels, the adults would not take it seriously, but...but this concerns the daughter of the royal princess.
She is still the daughter of a princess who has a history of robbed brides.
The lesson is right in front of us...
That night, Wei Heng, who had not entered the main room for a long time, came to Jiang's courtyard.
It was getting late at that time, and Jiang had already taken off her makeup and hair. She was slightly startled when she saw him coming in and said, "Why didn't you send someone to say something in advance?"
