"Don't eat cold wine."

Xiao Yi whispered and took away the wine cup from Nan Baoyi's hand.

Nan Baoyi came to her senses.

She withdrew her gaze from Nan Chengli, and her heart was beating tumbling.

When her brother toasted the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, she kept paying attention to her, for fear that her brother would be looked down upon. However, when her brother toasted Ning Fanhua's table, her posture and expression were very different.

He didn't even dare to look directly at Ning Fanhua.

She remembered that her brother said that he had a girl he liked, named Fan Xiaohua.

Could it be that Fan Xiaohua’s true identity is Ning Fanhua?

Yes, Ning Fanhua has been married and has lived at home for a while, and all the information is right...

Xiao Yi stroked her hair on her sideburns: "What are you thinking?"

Nan Baoyi shook her head and did not dare to speak out.

Although the people of Da Yong are open and women remarrying is not a big deal, Ning Er's sister has not yet divorced. If the brother's love for her is spread, she may be ridiculed by the world. The Lu family may even secretly stumbling against her brother.

She looked at Ning Fanhua's table again.

Sister Ning Er ate a chopstick of fish sashimi, suddenly covered her mouth and quickly left the banquet.

The Lu family's mother and son whispered something, and no one chased after him to see it.

The eldest brother was attentive and turned around and chased him out.

Nan Baoyi was afraid that the man and the widow would make a fuss, so he quickly put on his silk skirt and followed him quietly.

The veranda is remote.

Nan Baoyi poked her head out from the corner and saw Sister Ning entering the west room. Her elder brother stood by the railing and stared blankly at the lotus leaves in the pond outside the corridor.

Not long after, Sister Ning Er walked out of the west room.

Suddenly seeing Nan Chengli waiting here, she was startled and her little face was pale.

She looked around and was sure no one was peeping, and then said nervously: "What are you doing here?"

"Seeing you are uncomfortable, come and have a look." Nan Chengli was worried, "Are you okay?"

Ning Fanhua raised her sleeve and covered her face half and turned her mind to her side: "I was confused about that night for a while, please don't take it to heart. From now on, I will only think that you and I are not familiar with each other."

These two sentences are a bit heartbroken.

Nan Chengli's face was dim and his hands hanging in his sleeves were quietly clenched.

But his face was full of bright wind and nodded with a smile: "I understand, I won't make you embarrassed. Since you are fine, I'll feel relieved. But I see, the Lu family treats you very badly. Miss Ning Er, it's useless to be bullied by others. Just relying on your mother's strength, you must become strong yourself. I will forget about that night."

Through the corner, Nan Baoyi leaned quietly on the red corridor, and his mind wandered far away.

What happened that night?

What night happened?

She thought keenly of the night when Zhao Qing died.

Could it be...

My brother and sister Ning Er had an affair that night?

She remembered the way Ning Fanhua had just eaten fish sashimi and left the mat.

It looked like he was so fishy that he was disgusted, which looked like Aunt Cheng's reaction when she first got pregnant with her younger brother.

A guess exploded in my mind like thunder.

She looked disbelief.

...

On the other side.

Zhenguo Duke’s Mansion, Linshui Bao Pavilion.

Shen Jiang leaned against the window.

The dark purple men's brocade robe is elegant and gorgeous, with a golden belt outlined her slender figure, and her hair is majestic and noble, showing off a woman's unparalleled style.

She looked at the garden scenery of the Duke's Mansion, gently shaking the folding fan, and a smile on her red lips: "Panyu, how long has it been since you and I have spoken? I remember when I was young, you and I were the best handkerchiefs in the aristocratic circle in Chang'an City. Unexpectedly, many years later, you and I will marry as women, but it seems that we will never interact with each other."

The eldest princess Xiao Panyu was kneeling behind the short desk and was gently stroking the Changzheng.

The sound of the piano is squeaking.

Many years ago, she and Shen Jiang were indeed the best close friends.

She is the royal princess, and Chen Jiang is the daughter of a powerful minister.

They have the same noble origins, the same talent and beauty, and they appreciate each other.

They once slept on a couch to count the stars, sneaked into the army to watch martial arts performance, once praised which husband is worthy of their lifelong entrustment, and once studied martial arts together...

But such a good relationship ended after Chen Jiang came back from Jiangnan.

I don’t know what I experienced in Jiangnan, but when she returned to Chang'an City, she was no longer the innocent and romantic Shen family Ah Jiang.

She married her emperor brother and transformed herself into Queen Chen who was fighting for power.

She eliminated dissidents in the court and made drastic moves to help her confidants. She once repeatedly advised Da Yong's country, but Chen Jiang turned a blind eye and ignored her kindness.

Such a Shen Jiang made her unfamiliar.

What's even more annoying is that her brother, who was known as the pride of heaven since childhood, and the young emperor who had been determined to pacify the orthodox status of the Great Yong Dynasty since childhood, did not know which style she could draw, and suddenly became mediocre and incompetent.

It was like a sharp sword, with mottled rust on the vines overnight.

He ignored the government affairs and allowed Shen Jiang to do whatever he wanted in the court, even hurting their children.

So the couple also made her angry.

After repeated advice but failed, she turned around and married Ning Su.

She gradually stopped interacting with the palace.

Xiao Panyu thought about everything that happened many years ago, and a little sadness flashed through his eyes.

She lowered her eyes, her voice was indifferent and distant: "Today, Zhenguo Duke's Mansion will marry a bride. The wife still has a lot to do. Please tell me if there is anything to do."

"Empress..." Chen Jiang chewed the word with a smile and sarcastic expression, "Xiao Panyu, this is not the name you should call me. I treat you as a friend, I was a friend when I was young, but I will still be in the future. The hatred between me and Xiao Yu will never involve you."

Xiao Panyu stopped Qin Qian and raised his eyes without emotion: "Chen Jiang, you claim to be fair and you claim to not involve grudges on others. Then tell me, Qingyang and Zizhong, how did they die? How did Ayan fall into the Colosseum? I don't interact with you and your husband, but they are my juniors who are connected with blood! You and your husband don't feel sorry, I feel sorry!"

"I've given them a way out."

"No, it was you who forced them to death."

Baoge fell into strange silence.

Chen Jiang turned her face away, and Danfeng's eyes were even sharper.

She shook the folding fan a few times, and suddenly glanced at Xiao Panyu coldly: "Panyu, I don't want to use a trick on you. I said straight to the point that I came here for the military power of the Duke Zhenguo Mansion. It would be best if you are willing to hand over it on your own initiative. If you refuse, I have my own way, but you and Duke Zhenguo will suffer some hardships. Today is Azhou's day of great joy, and I think you are unwilling to get rid of it."

"Military power... It turns out that you are for military power." Xiao Panyu murmured and suddenly chuckled, "Chen Jiang, if you want to usurp the throne, you should step over my body first. There is only one head, and you can seize it. As for military power, don't think about it!"

With a "bang", Shen Jiang closed the folding fan heavily.

Her eyes were red and she paused: "Do you think I dare not?"
