Chapter 842, Embarrassed

The next head of the Jiang family and the eldest grandson that he had worked so hard to cultivate were killed one after another, which made Gu Jian very happy. When Daohua and Xiao Yeyang came to the Four Seasons Villa, they clearly felt this.

July is the hottest time, and the hot weather didn't stop the old man from being in a good mood.

Lord Yong is old and can't stand the heat. Every summer, he comes to Zhuangzi to escape the heat. He often chats and drinks tea with Gu Jian. The two old people are getting more and more familiar.

During this time, Daohua and Xiao Yeyang didn't have a good reputation, but knowing that the two were here, the old prince immediately sent someone back to the house to call his grandson Xiao Yexuan.

Xiao Yeyang saw the intention of Prince Yong Lao, and he didn't say anything about it. Although Xiao Yexuan's ability was not outstanding, the advantage was that he was still sincere, and he was willing to befriend him.

In the royal family, he still needs to establish his own network.

The prince is not allowed to make friends, but the clan can still get a little closer.

Since there was no errand, Xiao Yeyang arranged for the dark guard to keep an eye on the Jiang family, and then he and Daohua stayed in the village.

The day before Qixi Festival, Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong came to the Four Seasons Villa together.

"Why are you here?"

Daohua looked at the two in surprise.

Kang Naixin asked with a smile, "Why are you not welcome?"

Daohua immediately smiled and said: "Miss Kang and Miss Wu can come here, but the poor house is full of brilliance, how can you not welcome them?" After saying that, she welcomed the two of them into the house.

After drinking a sip of tea, Wu Xirong said with a smile, "Tomorrow is Qixi Festival. The ladies in the capital will meet at Yunhe Tower to hold a begging party. Naixingu and I don't like such a party, so we hid in the village."

"A gathering with a lot of people is boring." Daohua let the maid serve iced watermelon and grapes, and chatted with Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong about other things with a smile.

Kang Naixin ate the watermelon with a smile: "Xirong and I will stay in Zhuangzi for a few days. We will come to play with you every day. Don't be reluctant to entertain us."

Daohua laughed: "Watermelon and grapes are full."

After eating the fruit for a while, Kang Naixin glanced at Wu Xirong and asked Daohua with a smile, "I heard that Xiao Yexuan often comes to your villa?"

Daohua nodded: "The old prince likes to chat and drink tea with my master. He came here with the old prince."

At noon, Cai Ju came over to announce that they were eating, and Dao Hua took the two to Gu Jian's yard. As soon as they entered the yard, they saw Xiao Yexuan and Wu Dingbai standing beside Xiao Yeyang.

"Is your brother here too?"

Wu Xirong nodded and said, "My father thought my brother was doing nothing at home, so he kept scolding him. Knowing that Naixin and I were coming to Zhuangzi, he hid with us."

With a few more young people, the dinner table became lively.

Everyone was talking and laughing, and Gu Jian and Yong Lao Wang Ye were also very happy.

In the next few days, Kang Naixin, Wu Dingbai and Wu Xirong came to the Four Seasons Villa every day, and they had more contact. Xiao Yeyang and Daohua got to know more and more about them.

During this period, Daohua noticed that Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong always moved to Xiao Yexuan's side intentionally or unintentionally.

She remembered that the two of them had also visited her village during the Chinese New Year. The time was also when Xiao Yexuan was there. They were both guests and knew each other. At that time, she and Xiao Yeyang had entertained three people in the pavilion.

A chance encounter is a coincidence, but two or three times are not.

Daohua looked at Kang Naixin and Wu Xirong.

The two are about a year younger than her, and their family background and appearance are first-class, but they have not yet been engaged.

I don't know who these two people are interested in Xiao Yexuan?

The time spent in Zhuangzi passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was July 16. Tomorrow was the Queen Mother's birthday. Even if Xiao Yeyang and Daohua didn't want to go, they got up and went home.

In the carriage returning to the city, Xiao Yeyang saw that Daohua was not in a good mood, so he thought about it and said, "You had a good time with Miss Kang and Miss Wu?"

Daohua: "It's alright, both of them have a straightforward temperament, they're not fickle, and they get along very well."

Xiao Yeyang suddenly smiled and said, "Since you get along well with them, you will invite them to the palace to accompany you in the future, lest you be bored."

Daohua sighed: "Yuanyao went back to Zhongzhou with Sun Changze, Shiyu also followed his fourth brother to Yuezhou, Jingwan is about to give birth, I can't even find a person who can speak her own words, it is true Pretty boring."

Xiao Yeyang hugged Daohua and said with a smile: "The eldest princess and the Wu family are both neutral royalists, we can befriend them."

Daohua made an "um".

July 17, the Queen Mother's birthday.

Because of Jiang Shizi's death, there was no big event for the birthday celebration this time, but the royal family members were gathered together and a family banquet was held in the Cining Palace.

Daohua and Xiao Yeyang honestly followed behind Prince Ping to greet the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother gave a 'hum', but didn't even give a good face to Prince Ping.

Under the watchful eyes of all the clansmen, Prince Ping took Daohua and Xiao Yeyang to his seat with a stiff smile.

Compared with the liveliness elsewhere, Daohua and the others seemed to be separated by a vacuum.

Daohua and Xiao Yeyang didn't care much about this, but Prince Ping felt a little uncomfortable.

After sitting for a while, Prince Ping went over to talk to Prince Rui.

Princess Huijia also brought Kang Naixin, and when Kang Naixin saw Daohua, she smiled and greeted her.

A very ordinary greeting stabbed the queen mother in the eye, and the queen mother broke out on the spot with Princess Huijia and Kang Naixin.

"Hui Jia, this Naixin is not too young, why haven't you told her about her? If you don't have a suitable candidate, the Aijia can give her a marriage proposal."

Hearing this, Princess Huijia and Kang Naixin's expressions changed.

The empress dowager's reference to marriage must be based on interests, and it is also from the interests of the Jiang family. What kind of good marriage can you refer to?

The eldest princess Huijia said quickly: "Back to the empress dowager, my son has given Naixin a good view of others."

Empress Dowager: "Oh? Whose family is it? You can listen to it. Aijia will help you to see the details."

Seeing that the Queen Mother looked like she was about to marry without saying who she was, Princess Huijia hesitated. She knew her daughter's thoughts. How does she speak?

Kang Naixin noticed her mother's embarrassment, thought about it, and said, "Back to the queen mother, Naixin likes Wu Dingbai from the Wu Governor's house."

She only said that she liked it, but did not say that the two families were settled. In the future, whether the Wu family wanted to marry her or not, it would not be considered to deceive the queen mother.

The empress dowager obviously didn't want to let Kang Naixin go: "You like Wu Dingbai, so does Wu Dingbai like you?"

Asking a question like a girl who hasn't left the cabinet is really humiliating.

Princess Huijia clenched her fists in anger.

"Why so quiet?"

The emperor walked into the hall with a smile, glanced at Eldest Princess Huijia and Kang Naixin who were standing, and calmly went next to the Queen Mother.

The empress dowager said with a smile: "The emperor came just right. This girl Naixin said that she likes Wu Dingbo of the Wu family. Do you want it?"

The emperor interrupted the empress dowager with a smile: "Dingbai, that kid is really good." As he spoke, he didn't give the empress dowager a chance to speak, and looked at the clan present.

"Are all your gifts for the queen mother ready?"

Lord Yong immediately took over the words: "I'm ready, I'll be waiting for the emperor to come and show it to the queen mother."

The emperor: "Then what are you waiting for, present it, and I will see what good things you have sent."

Under the leadership of Prince Yong, all the royal clansmen began to present gifts one after another, which was a distraction from what had just happened.

Seeing this, the queen mother was so angry, but she couldn't face the emperor directly, she could only face the people presenting the gift with a straight face to express her displeasure.

In the past, Prince Ping was the most active presenter, but this time, he sat still.

The Queen Mother didn't give a good face to Prince Ping's mansion before. He didn't pay much attention to her because she was old, but Queen Huijia's daughter was embarrassed in public just because she said hello to Yan girl.

What is the Queen Mother trying to do?

Do you want everyone to crowd out and ignore Ye Yang and his wife?

Did she think about his feelings when she did this?

At the thought of Cheng Huan's flattery over the years, Prince Ping always felt that he had paid by mistake.

The queen mother didn't really care about him at all.
