Chapter Nineteen

There were many people placing lanterns by the river. I knew that Xiaoqiu was afraid of being alive, so Yu Xiang deliberately chose a quiet corner.

Lotus-shaped lanterns filled the entire river, and the pink lights rose and fell on the river surface, swaying around, as if the nine heavenly galaxies fell into the world, as beautiful as a dream. There were also mosquitoes and moths gathered along the light, buzzing their wings over the lanterns, causing a group of silverfish to hear the sound and jump out of the water to hunt.

Elegant people only think that the lights are beautiful, the water is beautiful, the people are beautiful, and the galaxies in the sky and under the ground are even more beautiful, but vulgar people think that the scene of fish preying on the candlelight is much more beautiful than the candlelight in the river of the river of the river of the river.

Yu Xiang and Xiao Qiuer are the only two ordinary people in Xihe Garden.

A huge carp jumped out of the water, held a moth and fell back, splashing bright water.

Xiaoqiuer applauded happily.

Yu Xiang supported his cheeks with one hand and licked his lips and murmured, "This fish weighs at least two pounds, and it grows in such a clear river. The meat is absolutely delicious. It would be great if it was fished up and made into sweet and sour carp." She rubbed her stomach and sighed long, "Don't say, she's really hungry."

Foodies always have a mutual understanding of each other, and Xiaoqiuer nodded quickly and agreed, "I'm hungry too!"

The master hasn't had such a happy time for a long time, and the old lady smiled and said, "Please wait for two masters, so I will bring some food." Because Yu Xiang's two little girls were also there, and there was a royal garden here, she walked very comfortably. However, as soon as she left, a group of bad-looking ladies came to her feet.

The leader was about twelve or thirteen years old, and his clothes were extremely luxurious. Everyone followed him two steps away, and he was vaguely led by her. The beautiful girl Yu Xiang had seen before was also mixed with Yu Siyu.

"Give me the light!" As I got closer, the girl reached out to Xiaoqiuer, her tone was quite domineering.

Xiaoqiuer was frightened and hurriedly hid behind Yu Xiang, shaking her head firmly.

Peach red and willow green steps to stop him, but the two old wives brought by the girl were dragged to the back and covered their mouths with a veil. This action was done in one go, quite skillful.

"The Holy Light of Nirvana was tributed to the Han Dynasty by the Kingdom of Heaven. This is the only one in the world, and it is priceless. You deserve it? Give it to me!" She took a few steps forward and was full of momentum.

Xiaoqiuer hurriedly hid on the other side of Yu Xiang.

Seeing that she refused to give her, the girl was a little angry and went to snatch her.

Although Yu Xiang likes children, he really can't like those unreasonable naughty children. He is extremely frustrated and immediately got angry and pushed the girl away and sneered, "You dare to bully my balls and take my girl privately. Believe it or not, I will throw your face with a lamp oil!"

"You dare! Do you know who I am? I am Princess Qinghe! My father is Prince Yu!" The girl was pushed and shouted at the top of her lungs.

"So what if you are the princess? This lantern was won back with us openly, and it was also a reward from the Queen. You come up and grab it without asking. What does it mean? In the royal garden, what does it mean to capture other servants for no reason? Could it be that you, a princess, can cross the Queen and the laws of the Han Dynasty?" Yu Xiang took the lantern from Xiaoqiuer's hand, reached it on the surface of the river, and smiled and contemptuously, "I will throw it into the river to feed the fish, and I will not give it to you for free. If you have the ability, come and grab it."

The lanterns are getting closer and closer to the water. If you really come forward to snatch them, maybe you will fall down to feed the fish. Princess Qinghe was so angry that she trembled with her fingertips, and she couldn't speak. Her father, Prince Naiyu, the emperor's cousin, holds 800,000 heavy troops in his hand. She is one of the most powerful nobles in the Han Dynasty. She will not be flattered and pleased wherever she goes. Today she kicked the iron plate, and even a little cripple dared to condemn her. It's so outrageous!

"Which company are you from..." she asked gritted her teeth.

"You guess." Yu Xiang covered his mouth and chuckled.

Xiaoqiuer poked out half of her head and laughed twice. With lotus seed cakes around, she was not afraid at all.

Princess Qinghe was so angry that she was angry by the contemptuous attitude of the two. She was about to get angry when she saw Chang Yafu, the second daughter of Duke Jingguo's mansion, coming out from the crowd and speaking softly, "Princess is angry, this is the sister of Yu Xiang of the Marquis of Yongle. Please don't bother with her for my sake."

Before Princess Qinghe responded, she continued to step forward and squatted in front of Yu Xiang and said in a row, "Xiang'er, my sister has a set of white jade bell phoenix hairpins, which are spliced ​​together from thirty-six fine ornaments. They are made of famous craftsman Fu Xilin. It is not an exaggeration to praise the craftsmanship. How about I exchange the hairpin with you? This lamp looks okay now. After burning for a long time, the inner wall is covered with black lamp oil, and it is no longer as bright as the hairpin as it is." After saying that, he pinched Yu Xiang's fingertips, and his attitude seemed very intimate.

If it were the original "Yu Xiang", he would naturally be willing to exchange a useless lamp for a set of exquisite jewelry. But now Yu Xiang is a stubborn person. He throws his own things and will not be taken away by outsiders. He just looks at the girl and smiles in disguise, "Who are you? Do I know you?"

The girl's face turned pale, she opened her mouth but couldn't speak.

"Yu Xiang, this is Sister Fu'er, who is engaged to her elder brother. Don't you know your future sister-in-law?" Yu Siyu quickly stepped forward to explain.

It would be fine if she didn't explain, but as soon as she explained, the girl's expression became even more embarrassing.

Yu Xiang quickly looked through the memory of "Yu Xiang" and found some information from the corner after a while. The sister Fu'er is the second daughter of the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion. She did have a marriage contract with Yu Pinyan. She came to the Marquis' Mansion two or three times in her early years. Later, the dispute over the title became more and more intense, so she stopped visiting the house again. Yu Xiang had never met her, so naturally she didn't know her. But in her memory, she knew that her ancestor had been angry for more than a month because of the granddaughter-in-law's intention to regret the marriage.

As long as the ancestor doesn't let go of her, the title of sister-in-law will not be on her head in the future. She will not stand up to protect her sister-in-law long ago, but wait until the conflict intensifies before selling it on both sides. This person is a little scheming, no wonder she had to play the trick of waiting for the price back then.

Yu Xiang's impression of the girl suddenly fell to the bottom and sneered, "When my thing was robbed, Sister Fu'er didn't stand up for me. Now she is a peacemaker, and she exchanged a set of ordinary jade hairpins for my priceless palace lanterns, and asked me to remember your love. This abacus was crackling and she fooled me as a fool! Now she is helping outsiders to cheat her sister-in-law and marry into the house in the future! She can't beat her sister-in-law to death! Yes, you are a ruthless person. My brother was so difficult at the beginning, and I didn't see you help me. Instead, I wanted to separate my relationship. I can't count on you now."

Chang Yafu's method of handling it is not bad, but she prefers Princess Qinghe and does not forget to plan some favors for herself. If she changes someone, she might not be able to respond reluctantly. But Yu Xiang eats everything and can't suffer any loss. If she wants to steal something from her, she has to be prepared to be scratched.

She pursed her mouth, and her eyes blinked, and she burst into tears, and she choked, "You group of people with sound hands and feet together to bully me, a cripple, and among them are my future sister-in-law and sisters connected by blood. Is this going to force me to death? Well, I don't have much interest in living anyway. Why don't I jump into the river today and fulfill you!" After saying that, she rolled her wheelchair hard and walked slowly into the river, with indescribable sorrow all over her body.

The two old wives were pressed on the stone table and could not move, and they were so anxious that they whined.

Princess Qinghe was really scared by her. She was obviously sharp-tongued and aggressive in the last second, but she cried with a cry of mourning in the next second, and she was completely disappointed. She didn't even change her face even if she turned a book. What did she want to do? Going into the river in the royal garden? This is to drag everyone into the water!

Just as he reached out to stop him, another face-changing change appeared here. Xiao Qiuer, who was anxious, grabbed Yu Xiang's sleeve tightly, opened his mouth and cried loudly, crying while crying, "Brother, come quickly! Some people bully Qiuer! Some people want to force Lianzi cake to death!"

“…”

Who is the lotus seed cake in your mouth?... You can't call it a nickname privately with others behind your back! Yu Xiang was just a show, but when he heard Xiao Qiuer's magical sound, he couldn't pretend anymore. He looked at her in amazement with tears in his eyes.

The loud voice was probably heard in Xiheyuan! She wanted to scare these children and let them get away with it. Now, things are completely aggravated. So, I should think about how to slander others and whitewash herself in front of the Queen! Fortunately, my brother saved the prince, and he was disabled and possessed. He should not suffer any loss. He was afraid that he would offend Prince Yu's mansion and cause trouble for his brother in the future.

She wiped her face, and her sad expression instantly turned into laughter and crying.

Seeing that these two people were so ignorant, not only did not take the initiative to offer lanterns, but also made the matter worse and worse, Princess Qinghe panicked and threatened, "Today it is the Queen Qianqiu. One of you is so sad and the other is throwing into the river. Is this intention to find the Queen unlucky! Do you still understand the rules? Do you have any tutors?"

"Stop making trouble, I can't die!" Everyone dissuaded them all over the place.

"Yu Xiang, don't drag the marquis's mansion if you die! Come up quickly!" Yu Siyu was so angry that she smoked. Yu Xiang's temperament was becoming more and more unscrupulous, and she didn't even look at the occasion!

"Is Qiu'er's tutor good? Why don't you go and ask Gu's father and mother in person?" A low voice came from the back of the person. Princess Qinghe was shocked and hurriedly turned around to look.

The prince stood with his hands behind his back. Although there was a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, cold rage was surging in his eyes. Yongle Hou walked out quickly from behind him, and his face was so gloomy that it could drip out of water.

"Brother!" the two little girls shouted pitifully, both reaching out to their brother.

The prince and Yu Pinyan each picked up their own precious sister and left here. The group of ladies quickly made way out as if they had seen a ghost and watched them get farther and farther away.

Peach Hong and Willow Green broke free from the old woman's clamp, lifted up the hem of her skirt and chased after her.

"I heard that the Empress is interested in choosing a companion for the Ninth Princess today. You have to show off your good performance..." Princess Qinghe suddenly said that her mother had told her before leaving. She snatched the Ninth Princess's palace lantern. That was the Ninth Princess, the emperor, the queen, the prince, and the most powerful people in the Han Dynasty all loved the Ninth Princess as treasured! How did this end?

Thinking of this, Princess Qinghe felt her scalp numb.

Yu Siyu and Chang Yafu turned their heads and caught a glimpse of the old lady standing on the river bank with an unpredictable expression, and both looked pale.

"Old lady, this, this..." Mrs. Jingguo was brewing words to praise her daughter, but now she couldn't say a word. Yu Xiang's accusations just now were really heartbroken! What does it mean to be ruthless and unrighteous? What does it mean to be ruthless and unreliable? The old lady's eyebrows stood up as soon as she heard it. If the river embankment was not narrow and inconvenient to walk, she would have rushed down long ago. But she didn't rush down, and the prince and the Marquis of Yongle arrived first, and the situation became even more serious.

What kind of evil is this? Mrs. Jingguo is both angry and anxious.

"Forget it, it's not very good-looking." The old lady sneered, turned her head and left.
