Chapter 45: pull hatred

Chapter 45: pull hatred

"Great, I think so too!" Yao Xi felt as if she had taken a heart pill after listening to Jiang Xuening's words, the smile on her lips couldn't be suppressed, overflowing like melting ice, and said, " I wrote a letter to my father when I turned back. I thought that although Zhang Zhe took the initiative to withdraw from the engagement, it was not because he didn’t want to marry me, but because he was afraid that I would bring trouble after I married. But if I wanted to, then he would have no worries. So, so ..."

Such a marriage can be done.

With such a high lintel in the Yao Mansion, she asked herself that her color and self-cultivation were considered top-notch in Beijing, so how could Zhang Zhe have any reason to refuse?

However, it was a bit difficult for her daughter to say this, so she murmured for a long time and didn't say it.

But Jiang Xuening understood.

For the next part of the way, Yao Xi walked beside her, seeming to change her hostility towards her and want to be friends with her. After all, if Jiang Xuening hadn't persuaded him before, she might not have known that Zhang Zhe was such a noble character.

But Jiang Xuening didn't want to have a deep friendship with her.

Ask yourself, does she really like Yao Xi, does she agree with Yao Xi?

the answer is negative.

She was also not happy with Yao Xi's marriage proposal with Zhang Zhe.

But at this moment, Zhang Zhe didn't know anything about Yao Xi.

In this life, because of her own obstruction and persuasion, Yao Xi did not use lowly means to slander Zhang Zhe and give him a reputation of restraining his wife. On Zhang Zhe's side, he is innocent. If after receiving the letter of resignation, she not only does not dislike her but wants to marry Zhang Zhe, then from Zhang Zhe's point of view, what kind of person should Yao Xi be?

You don't have to think about it.

Born from a noble family but willing to commit himself to a poor family, giving charcoal in the snow but not making trouble, not snobbish, but also heavy on promises.

Either way, she's a great girl.

Zhang Zhe would agree, right?

Jiang Xuening knew what kind of person Yao Xi was, and didn't think Zhang Zhe should marry her.

But she is not qualified to do anything more.

Previously reprimanding You Yue and warning Yao Xi was because she couldn't just sit back and watch Zhang Zhe's reputation be smeared; now that Yao Xi is willing to marry, anyone in the world can criticize and oppose, only she can't, and she has no position—

Because, she has selfishness towards Zhang Zhe.

If she wanted to destroy this marriage, she would never dare to say with a clear conscience that it was only out of dislike of Yao Xi's character.

In the Fengchen Palace in the early morning, the servants in charge had already tidied up every book case. From front to back, there were nine book cases in three rows and three columns. The table in the middle of the first row is carved with red sandalwood lacquer, and the seat behind it is covered with a golden red brocade seat. It is different from other desks at first glance, and even the Four Treasures of the Study placed on it are more precious.

This is obviously the seat of the Eldest Princess of Leyang, Shen Zhiyi.

When everyone came in from the outside, they could see the specialness of this position at a glance, and they all sat in other positions consciously, and most of them sat in the same position as when they first came to Fengchen Hall.

Jiang Xuening chose the window seat in the corner almost without hesitation.

That's where she sat in the first place.

Even though the windows are open and the skylight shines in, compared to the two rows in front, this is still the most difficult position to be noticed by the gentlemen—for the next six months, she doesn't want to choose a seat in front of Xie Wei. Sitting under the eyelids.

Both Xiao Shu and Chen Shuyi were obviously confident in their knowledge and background, and chose the left and right sides of the eldest princess respectively; Yao Xi chose the middle of the second row, just behind Shen Zhiyi's position; They are Fang Miao and Zhou Baoying respectively; in the last row from left to right, only You Yue, Yao Rongrong and Jiang Xuening are left.

Today was Shen Zhiyi's first real visit to Fengchen Palace.

The queen mother and Su Shangyi have explained in the past few days that it was a matter of great difficulty for the emperor to agree to start a class for her. The court also criticized this, and most of them thought it was incompatible with etiquette, so she must cherish the opportunity. Not perfunctory treatment.

So he deliberately put on a decent palace dress with light yellow woven gold embroidery patterns.

Not long after Jiang Xuening and the other eight companions arrived, and there was still a moment before Maozheng, she came in from the outside with two palace servants who served her personally.

Everyone bowed and saluted one after another: "I have seen the eldest princess, please greet the eldest princess."

Shen Zhiyi hadn't been this happy for a long time, her bright face was full of smiles, with her hands behind her back, she jumped briskly and stood on the threshold, only saying to everyone: "From now on, you will all be mine. Companion reading, we still have a lot of time to meet each other, so don't give big salutes every time, you are tired and I am tired too, get up quickly."

As she spoke, she glanced around.

Immediately afterwards, he let out a "huh" and walked directly in front of Jiang Xuening: "Ningning, why are you sitting at the back?"

There is a petal of cherry powder on Shen Zhiyi's forehead. Since the last Double Ninth Banquet, her face has lost the haze of the past, and she has let go of the airs of the eldest princess that she deliberately put up before. The child is playful.

When Jiang Xuening touched her concerned eyes, he couldn't help but startled.

I remember that I had seen Shen Zhiyi so cute and happy in my last life, but after knowing that she belonged to her daughter, this look disappeared from Shen Zhiyi's face, and she returned to the original eyes that always The eldest princess Leyang who is entangled with a trace of depression and increasingly bad temper.

Jiang Xuening could see that she had been "kind" to him before, and was afraid that she would tell him to sit in front of her as soon as she opened her mouth, so she quickly winked at her and explained: "Your subject is stubborn and not good at studies, so sitting here will not save you The husband is upset when he sees it. Wouldn't it be bad if he accidentally told me to get out later?"

This is a euphemism to say that I don't want to be seen by my husband.

Shen Zhiyi understood, she couldn't hold back her laughter, and said: "With this princess covering me, who dares to tell you to get out?"

The eyes of the other people in the palace immediately fell on Jiang Xuening, full of jealousy, complexity, fear, and deep thought.

Jiang Xuening could feel the subtlety of the atmosphere in the hall.

But she didn't dare to look at it either.

Afraid that as soon as he looked up, the knife would stab him and stab himself to death!

Shen Zhiyi grew up loved by thousands of people in the palace. Apart from treating the emperor's brother and the queen mother, she didn't know what it meant to "be restrained in doing things". When she liked someone, she would treat someone well without any scruples.

She actually wanted Jiang Xuening to sit next to her.

Wouldn't it be nice to sit closer and see it as soon as you turn your head?

But looking forward, Xiao Shu and Chen Shuyi were already sitting on the left and right sides of her in the front row, both of whom she knew before, it would be bad if she asked anyone to get up and change with Jiang Xuening, it would be embarrassing for nothing .

So Shen Zhiyi had no choice but to let it go.

She grunted: "Since you want to sit here, you can sit here first. It doesn't matter if you get tired of it someday."

Jiang Xuening breathed a sigh of relief: "His Royal Highness Xie takes care of you."

Only then did Shen Zhiyi pass by her, and sat down in front of her desk in the middle of the first row.

Xiao Shu stood up at this moment, naturally put a brocade box on Shen Zhiyi's desk, winked and smiled at her.

Shen Zhiyi suddenly exclaimed in surprise: "Ashu brought me a gift!"

She picked up the brocade box and opened it, and there was a delicate shadow puppet inside, and she couldn't put it down immediately.

Chen Shuyi also stood up at this moment, and presented the gift she had prepared with both hands: "I heard that Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess likes Mr. Gu Qi's paintings, and there happens to be a collection at home, so this time I just bring them to you."

Shen Zhiyi was pleasantly surprised once: "Shuyi is so kind to me!"

This time when entering the palace, everyone wanted to accompany Shen Zhiyi to read. Someone in the family planned or thought carefully, but in fact, they all prepared gifts for Shen Zhiyi, some were more expensive, and some were just a thought.

Originally, no one dared to send it first.

But with Xiao Shu and Chen Shuyi taking the lead, and Shen Zhiyi still so happy, everyone became courageous and took this opportunity to follow suit with the gifts they had prepared.

After a while, many things were placed on Shen Zhiyi's desk.

Jiang Xuening was dumbfounded.

She remembered that she had mainly dealt with You Fangyin and Yan Lin's affairs when she returned home this time, and she hadn't thought about Shen Zhiyi at all. Now everyone took out the presents, but she was not prepared at all!

Eyelids jumped wildly for a moment.

She thought silently in her heart that there are so many people giving gifts, and she still has no sense of presence in the corner, so it is best not to be noticed by anyone.

But who would have thought that if the sky does not obey people's wishes, it means that some people have cheap mouths.

As early as when Shen Zhiyi came in to talk, You Yue had already been looking at Jiang Xuening, and now she noticed that everyone brought gifts, only Jiang Xuening was sitting motionless in her seat, with her head bowed.

Don't let her get caught?

With the lessons learned from the last time, she has learned not to confront Jiang Xuening head-on, she just looked curious, pinched her throat and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that everyone had a good understanding, and they all brought gifts for the eldest princess. Although the things are different, they are all different. They have their own novelties. But I see Miss Jiang Er sitting beside her and not talking, did she prepare some special gift?"

As soon as You Yue said this, all the attention that had been diverted earlier returned to Jiang Xuening.

Even Shen Zhiyi turned her head and looked at Jiang Xuening with bright eyes.

Obviously expecting Jiang Xuening to bring her a surprise.

Jiang Xuening really wanted to rush over to tear You Yue's troublesome mouth at this moment, but when she turned her head to meet Shen Zhiyi's expectant eyes, she felt a little helpless in her heart.

She was really unprepared.

Could it be that she was asked to casually take off the jade pendant she carried with her as a perfunctor?

Jiang Xuening really couldn't do it.

She lowered her eyes slightly, instead of looking directly at Shen Zhiyi, she sighed and said, "I didn't prepare a gift."

Xiao Shu, who was sitting in the front row, raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and laughed silently.

You Yue even showed a triumphant smile, and immediately covered her lips, she was extremely surprised: "No way, Your Highness the eldest princess treated Miss Jiang Er so favorably, you actually... you don't even have a gift..."

The rest of the words were deliberately left unsaid, but there was no need to say the malicious meaning.

Others looked at Jiang Xuening's expression somewhat delicately: they should have sympathized with her, but how could it be their turn to sympathize with a person who was treated so favorably by His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess?

Watching silently at the moment.

I just thought: Even if the eldest princess likes Jiang Xuening, under such a strong contrast, she should know that she doesn't care about herself that much, and she won't be happy anyway, right?

They expected well. The moment Shen Zhiyi heard Jiang Xuening said that she hadn't prepared a gift, she felt an indescribable loss, even a little sad. Thinking that she was so kind to her, others would think of preparing a gift for herself. How could she Can't think of it?

But just the next moment, I saw Jiang Xuening's posture with her head down and her eyes down.

There was neither rebuttal nor explanation.

She originally had an extremely voluptuous appearance, and every movement of the corners of her eyes and brows seemed to tremble slightly with dew on the branches. At this moment, the slender neck was drooping, which actually made people feel soft, and even couldn't help but feel distressed.

Shen Zhiyi suddenly thought of what Yan Lin had said to herself, Jiang Xuening's life experience, and her situation in the mansion...

Jiang Xuening was lowering her head and thinking about what kind of reason she should find. Just as she raised her head, she wanted to explain to herself: "Actually, I—"

But she never expected that before she could speak, Shen Zhiyi's eyes were already red, and she said to her: "I know, I know everything."

You, what do you know?

Jiang Xuening's heart skipped a beat, almost thinking that she knew some of her secrets, but when she raised her eyes, she was almost frightened by her appearance of crying or not.

She had an intuition that something was wrong: "Your Highness..."

But Shen Zhiyi got up, came to her, took her hand, and said with a firm look: "Ning Ning, don't worry, with me here, I will never let anyone bully you! No preparations What does the gift matter? If you can come to read with me, it is already the best gift I have ever received."

Jiang Xuening: "..."

But for me it was a bolt from the blue, okay? And what the **** are you thinking about!

Everyone around thought that even if Shen Zhiyi didn't blame her, she would feel resentment in her heart. How could she have expected such a sudden development?

Xiao Shu was already stunned.

You Yue's jaw almost fell to the ground!

However, Shen Zhiyi had already decided in her heart that Jiang Xuening was a poor little boy who didn't love her father or mother, and was in such a situation at home, how could she prepare a gift for herself?

But she almost blamed it, she really shouldn't.

So when I felt distressed, I couldn't help but want to be nice to her, so I pointed to my desk and said, "Look, they gave it to me. See if there is anyone you like, I will give it to you!"

Jiang Xuening: "..."

swipe swipe—

Eyes flying around!

Everyone couldn't believe what they heard. The gift they carefully prepared for the eldest princess was turned around by the eldest princess and given to someone who didn't prepare a gift for her at all? !

Co-author only Jiang Xuening is a treasure, we are all grass!

Not to mention them, even Jiang Xuening couldn't help but have a heart attack for them.

Then he had a heart attack for himself.

This simply filled everyone's hatred for him in an instant!

But looking at the sincere and bright face in front of her, she really treats her well, she really can't blame her.

Thus, Jiang Xuening suddenly had a new realization—

From now on, just hug Shen Zhiyi's thick thigh tightly. As for others, no matter how you look at it, they don't seem to be able to get along with each other again, so just love someone!

Inside Fengchen Hall, the atmosphere froze for a moment.

Everyone has their own thoughts.

Fortunately, at this moment, a calm voice came from outside the hall, breaking the suffocating silence. It was Xie Weiqian who stepped up the steps and asked softly, "Have your highness the eldest princess and the companions arrived?"

Jiang Xuening's eyelids jumped immediately.
