Chu is the emperor's empress's daughter-in-law, although she is young and widowed, she is pitiful, but it is not Wang Yan and Hui Niang's turn to comment.The two sighed for a moment, then changed the topic tacitly at the same time.

Princess Rongcheng is a rare person whom the husband and wife both know very well, so it was naturally interspersed in the topic.After asking from Wang Yan that Princess Rongcheng's temper hadn't changed at all in the past year, Hui Niang felt relieved a lot.When they really saw Princess Rongcheng the next day, the sister-in-law and sister-in-law quickly became as close as ever.

Even because of the change of Anise's identity, the gap between the two of them due to their identity has disappeared.

"Sister Hui!" Princess Rongcheng called out cheerfully, and quickly threw herself into Hui Niang's arms. After getting a few winks from Wang Yan and the nuns beside her, she stuck out her tongue and changed her name, "Sister-in-law Seven."

Having been married for less than ten days, Hui Niang herself felt that the title "Sister-in-law Seven" was very awkward, but in front of everyone, she also had to abide by royal rules, so she awkwardly agreed, and quickly called everyone into the house.

The aunt and sister-in-law are old acquaintances. They haven't seen each other for more than a year, and they both have a lot to say.But Wang Yan was a big man here, and Hui Niang and Rongcheng felt a little inconvenient. Fortunately, Wang Yan was quite understanding, and after sitting with him for a while, he got up and found an excuse to go to the study, leaving his wife and younger sister to talk about love in Hui Niang's room. own words.

Also, as soon as Wang Yan left, Hui Niang waved to the maids to refill the tea, and greeted the maids brought by Princess Rongcheng. Rongcheng also put on airs and asked all the accompanying people to go down, leaving only the two aunts and sisters-in-law in the room. People, just relax.

"Sister Hui, I haven't seen you for over a year, I miss you so much!"

When Rongcheng spoke, Hui Niang felt that she was even more childish than before, and was about to respond with a few words, when Rongcheng continued: "For more than a year, my mother asked me to accompany my second sister-in-law every day. bored to death!"

If Rong Cheng can complain like this, Aniniang doesn't dare to respond, so she just smiles and keeps silent.

Rong Cheng just continued on his own, "Second sister-in-law knows how to sit in a quiet room in a daze all day long, and it is difficult for her to talk to me a few words. Going to accompany second sister-in-law is really like going to jail—"

Hui Niang hurriedly interjected, "Your Royal Highness has a noble status, yet you know what it's like to be in prison?"

"Oh, it's just that there is no one to accompany and nothing to do—it's boring!" Rong Cheng waved his hand innocently, "Sister Hui, can you enter the palace often now? I'm still waiting for when you will play horses with me again." Where's the ball!"

"With my current status, I'm afraid I can't enter the palace at will." Hui Niang didn't answer the question of "playing polo".

"Oh." Rong Cheng sighed, "Sister Hui, you are not here, and the queen mother won't let me play polo anymore—I haven't ridden a horse for a long time!"

As Princess Rongcheng, at her current age, the biggest worry is probably nothing more than this.Hui Niang smiled slightly, "Our mansion is small, playing polo is not enough, but if the princess wants to ride a horse, she can walk around the lanes on it."

"That's not interesting." Princess Rongcheng shook her head, "I'm already very happy to come here to talk to Sister Hui. If I really ride a horse, let the queen mother know, and I won't be able to come here often in the future."

Princess Rongcheng really lacks playmates of similar status and age.Hui Niang couldn't help but think of Shan Niang, after all she took time out to finish writing the letter back to her hometown, and Ban Xia had already arranged for someone to deliver the letter.It would be great if my uncle's family could come to Beijing. Shanniang is slightly younger than me, and she is about the same age as Princess Rongcheng, but...

never mind.She silently suppressed the thoughts in her heart again, and she didn't know if her uncle and aunt had betrothed Shanniang to someone else.Moreover, although Shan Niang is good, her identity is even more disparate with Princess Rongcheng. Letting her accompany Princess Rongcheng may not be as speculative as she and Rongcheng are.

She quickly put aside the thoughts in her heart and only concentrated on listening to Rong Cheng.

"Actually, I also know that the palace has not been peaceful for more than a year. The queen mother is afraid that I will get into trouble if I play outside all day, so I go to the second sister-in-law's every day... She is also unwilling to let the Wei family get what they want. Wei and Qiong come into the palace."

Hui Niang was a little distracted at first, but the three words "Wei and Qiong" pulled her attention back in an instant.Wei Heqiong fell in love with Wang Yan before, and there was a lot of commotion in the palace, even the queen mother and noble concubine were involved.However, if it weren't for her troubles, Hui Niang might not have the marriage she is now—not to mention whether it is good or bad, at least she has completely escaped from the fate of her previous life.

Now thinking of Wei and Qiong, Hui Niang still feels a little weird.

Rong Cheng stared at Hui Niang for a few times, he seemed to have misunderstood her expression, thinking that she still remembered Wei Heqiong's desire to marry Wang Yan, and was jealous of Wei Heqiong.She hurriedly smiled to make amends, "However, it was only those few months when the Wei family thought about it. Now Wei and Qiong are betrothed to the eldest grandson of the governor's family in the southeast, and they will marry southeast in the new year. Maybe we will never see each other again."

The Wei family must have known the news that Wei and Qiong were betrothed to each other, but it never reached Aniang's ears at all.After hearing this, Hui Niang didn't feel at ease - she didn't regard Wei and Qiong as rivals in love at all, her first reaction was that she was married to the grandson of the governor of the southeast, wouldn't the noble concubine and Duke Huai's faction have another strong supporter? ?

It's just that these words can't be said for Princess Rongcheng to hear.The crown prince died early, and the third prince and the seventh prince are all concubine brothers of Princess Rongcheng. Now that the empress has not made her attitude clear, even if Princess Rongcheng is not close to her brothers, it is inconvenient to be involved in the matter of seizing the heir inside.

Or maybe, the reason why the Empress has not clearly stated which prince she supports is for the sake of her own daughter.

Hui Niang was afraid that if she continued to chat like this, she would hear more and more news that would make her toss and turn, so she planned to play Shuanglu with Princess Rongcheng, to distract herself with games, so she would not lose her mind in front of Princess Rongcheng.

After playing like this for most of the afternoon, Princess Rongcheng reluctantly went back to the palace instead of having dinner here under the tactful urging of her mother.

However, with the experience of being a guest this time, I don't know how Princess Rongcheng would be soft and hard after returning to the palace, and she even asked the queen to allow her to come to Animiang's place to play and relax for half a day every four or five days.

Today, Hui Niang was reading the reply letter written by Qin Mengzhang's family. She just read the beginning of the letter and saw that it was Shan Niang's handwriting. .”

Hui Niang had no choice but to hastily put down the letter she had just read, and asked the maids to help her recomb her hair and change clothes, and led the maids and mothers to the outer courtyard to greet her.It was also a coincidence that Wang Yan was not in the mansion that day, and went out early in the morning, not knowing where he went.When Rongcheng came, seeing that Wang Yan was not there, he became a little happier, dismissed the nurses around him with a few words, and took Hui Niang's hand to rush into the main room.

"Sister Hui, my father gave me a piece of high-quality ink yesterday. I heard that after adding water and grinding it, it has a sweet fragrance--I don't like writing, and the ink is useless after grinding, so I wanted to use it. Come and try it at your place." While talking, he went straight into the study.

Hui Niang wanted to tell her to slow down, but Rong Cheng's temperament was always fickle, so Hui Niang was dragged into the room before she had time to speak.

"Sister Hui... Hey, why is there a letter here?"

Rongcheng picked up the letter, didn't read it, put it aside, laid the paper himself, and stared at Hui Niang expectantly.

Hui Niang just thought it was funny, and signaled the maids to come forward to help serve, "It's just right, after grinding the ink, it can't be used up, and I can use it when I can reply letters."

"Who wrote that letter to you?" Rong Cheng asked casually, "The Qin family is in the capital, and your sisters still need to write to you?"

"It was written to me by my cousin's younger sister." Hui Niang replied nonchalantly, "She lives in her hometown all year round, and I can only communicate with me through letters... I haven't seen her for a few years."

Princess Rongcheng has known about Huiniang's experience for a long time, and she has heard a little about Shanniang. She heard that it was her letter to Huiniang, but she didn't take it to heart. That piece of good ink.But Hui Niang couldn't help thinking about the letter, she managed to deal with Princess Rongcheng, and as soon as she sent her out, she went back to her room and picked up the letter.

The letter was not long, less than two sheets of paper, but the content of the letter made Anise overjoyed.She couldn't help holding Banxia's hand, "Shan Niang is going to Beijing with... my aunt, Banxia, ​​help me think about how to entertain them?"

Although Ban Xia is the maid who has been with Hui Niang for the longest time and has the deepest affection, her impression of Zou Shi and Shan Niang only stays in Hui Niang's occasional descriptions.and……

"Your Highness, even if Mrs. Tang and her family come, they will still live in the Shangshu Mansion, right? At that time, there will be old ladies and wives to entertain you..."

"That's not necessarily the case." Hui Niang raised the letter in her hand, "Shanniang said that she and her aunt came here this time because of cousin Jiayu's participation in the examination, and they will go to Beijing together when the first month of next year comes out. Uncle I was thinking about asking someone to find a second-entry house in Beijing, and let my aunt bring Shanniang and cousin Jiayu to live in it, and I didn't plan to live in the Shangshu Mansion at all."

Ban Xia couldn't help being happy for Hui Niang, "Then it will be convenient for His Highness to communicate with his wife and daughter."

"Yes." Hui Niang is happiest because of this, if Shan Niang lives in the Shangshu Mansion, she doesn't want to see Wei Shi's face, and she doesn't want to deal with the Shang Shu Mansion often.But if Mrs. Zou took Shanniang to live outside alone, she could visit her often, or bring Shanniang to the Seventh Prince's mansion to play.

After Wang Yan came back from the outside, what he saw was Hui Niang who was smirking from time to time, which aroused his curiosity, "Zisu, what happened to your master today? Why are you so happy? It was Rongcheng who brought her What good things are here?"

Zisu was not working in the main courtyard in the middle of the afternoon, and she only knew a general idea about Shan Niang's letter, but she didn't know what she said in detail, so she just said: "Maybe it's because I received a letter from Miss Tang, Miss Tang said What happy event?"

Wang Yan's understanding of Hui Niang's past and Qin Mengzhang's family is much more detailed than Princess Rongcheng's. In addition, he has been thinking about making friends with Qin Jiahong since many years ago, so he can't help but fall in love with him.

"What did your cousin say in your letter?"

Hui Niang had heard the conversation between Wang Yan and Zisu a long time ago, and Wang Yan and Qin Jiahong could be regarded as classmates for a while, so she didn't hide it. In the first month of next year, my aunt will bring her first cousin and Shanniang to Beijing together. Shanniang also said that my cousin is planning to ask someone to find a house in the capital for my aunt, first cousin, and Shanniang to settle in."

Wang Yan's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands, "This is indeed a happy event! Brother Jiayu is a man of great talent, this time he will take the exam and he will definitely go to high school... You don't need your cousin to worry about finding a house. It’s in Beijing, let the housekeeper go out and look around, and you can find good ones.” The words came out quickly, but after she finished speaking, she was afraid that Hui Niang would think he was too enthusiastic and would become suspicious, so she hurriedly went on to find love, “Your cousin also As my teacher, renting a yard for my wife and brother is what I should do as a student."

Hui Niang didn't think much about it, she just thought that what Wang Yan said was very reasonable, the students she had taught, the niece and niece she had raised were all in the capital, so why bother?It was right for the two of them to do it, so they accepted Wang Yan's kindness.
