Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

Chapter 462 My cousin is here

By the time Jingshu got up, Li Ling and the children were already busy with their own affairs. She ordered Ziyun to summon her sister.

Ziyun promised, but couldn't help but murmured to Jingshu: "Since I came back from the palace banquet yesterday, my servant has been a little weird when he saw the third lady."

Jingshu wondered: "Why is this? But someone bumped into her and made her unhappy?"

Ziyun shook her head and replied: "Probably not. The third lady is not someone who can hide her worries. If someone offends her, she will definitely complain."

Jingshu nodded and said, "Just find her and I'll ask her."

Ziyun responded and left. After a while, Shen Jingxuan followed Ziyun to Jiaofang Hall. When Shen Jingxuan entered the Jiaofang Hall, she happily hugged Ji'er Qiqi as usual.

Jingshu felt a little relieved when she saw that her sister was fine, so she didn't say anything more. She just ordered the female officer to fetch the day's events and immersed herself in the palace to read.

Shen Jingxuan hugged Ji'er and coaxed her, and asked Jingshu unintentionally: "Eldest sister, is the person who was called fourth brother by her brother-in-law at yesterday's banquet the same concubine who was the Duke of Zhenguo back then?"

Li Yu was not the biological son of the Duke of Zhen. Only the people in the Duke of Zhen knew about it. Even after they later learned the truth, the Duke of Zhen always regarded Li Yu as a bastard.

Even Jingshu’s natal family did not know about the twists and turns of this secret.

Jing Shu heard her sister suddenly ask about this. She put down what she was doing, looked up at Shen Jingxuan and replied: "He is the concubine of Duke Zhen, his name is Li Yu. He won the Jinshi title a few years ago and went to work for other places. He is an honest official and has made many achievements in the local area over the years. Your brother-in-law is now vigorously promoting young and promising juniors, so he transferred him back to the capital."

Shen Jingxuan nodded inadvertently, but Jing Shu could see that when she said this, Shen Jingxuan listened very carefully.

Jing Shu was an extremely meticulous person, and she couldn't tell what a little girl like Shen Jingxuan was thinking. She called the wet nurse to carry her infant son down, waved her sister to sit beside her, and asked, "Yesterday, your brother-in-law did something for you." Are you really not considering the young people you selected?"

Shen Jingxuan shook her head hurriedly and said: "Sister, I know that I am only of mediocre qualifications, and I really can't reach those people."

Jingshu asked again: "What about this Li Yu? Do you like him?"

When Shen Jingxuan heard this, her face turned red. "Sister, what are you talking about? How could I be attracted to a random man?"

Seeing her sister like this, Jingshu became even more determined.

Jing Shu smiled and replied: "My fourth brother was a diligent and motivated person when he was in school. Now that he is an official, he is also an ambitious man. Although his temper was a bit gloomy in the past, he has been tempered for so many years outside. Yes, even though he is now twenty-five years old, he has never been married."

Shen Jingxuan listened with her eldest sister's words with her ears pricked up. She blushed half-red and mumbled: "He is really not married yet."

Jingshu suppressed her laughter and deliberately teased her sister: "Since you have no interest in this person, why do you care about his marriage?"

Shen Jingxuan's face turned red: "Sister, you are teasing me again and ignoring you." After saying that, the little girl ran out shyly.

Since Pingyang got the family letter from his mother, Princess Lan, he has sent people to wait for his cousin outside the city every day. In just a few days, the servants picked him up.

This cousin from Pingyang was named Pei Yunqian. He followed the young man into the palace. Someone had already reported back to Pingyang. Li Xiang happened to be Mu Xiu at home today, and the couple hurriedly welcomed him out.

Pingyang has been married to Beijing for seven or eight years. When Pei Yunqian saw Pingyang for the first time, he couldn't help being slightly stunned.

"What's the matter? After several years of separation, doesn't Cousin Pei recognize me?" Pingyang smiled at Pei Yunqian and said politely.

Pei Yunqian quickly saluted and said hurriedly: "My cousin has changed so much that Pei almost doesn't recognize her anymore."

Pingyang Gui is the only legitimate daughter of Prince Yong. She has been pampered and pampered since she was a child. Before she left the court, she was a naive little girl who did not like the fireworks of the world. The person in front of her was dressed strictly and behaved dignifiedly. She was a typical example. Looks like a clan wife. Pingyang smiled and said: "My cousin has not changed much." After that, she introduced Li Xiang to Pei Yunqian and said: "Cousin, this is my husband."

Pei Yunqian then looked carefully at Li Xiang beside Pingyang, but Li Xiang kept looking at Pei Yunzhi calmly.

Pei Yunzhi saw that Li Xiang had a handsome appearance, gentle demeanor, and the noble temperament of a noble son, which was worthy of his noble cousin.

Li Xiang felt a very familiar feeling when he met Pei Yunzhi, or it was because of the familiar temperament exuded by the military generals. Pei Yunzhi's temperament was somewhat similar to Li Xiang's elder brother Li Ling, but Pei Yunqian was a little less temperamental than the cold and solemn Li Ling. The field is a bit gentler.

A few people chatted together, and Li Xiang and Ping Yang invited Pei Yunqian to the front hall.

After sitting down, Pei Yunqian didn't even bother to drink the hot tea, and ordered his entourage to bring the things that Princess Lan asked him to bring to Pingyang.

Pingyang was naturally eager to see the gifts her mother had sent her all the way, but she was always reluctant to be rude in front of guests.

Pingyang suppressed the joy in his heart and said politely: "It's a long journey, but my concubine has to work hard for my cousin to bring all these things. It's really hard for my cousin."

Pei Yunqian once served as a personal guard under Prince Yong, so he often went in and out of Prince Yong's palace. He was very familiar with his cousin Pingyang. He recalled the outspoken little girl back then, but now seeing Pingyang's self-denial, Pei Yunqian felt that he was not used to it.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Pingyang, and replied: "It doesn't matter about the other things, it's just that some of the things my aunt asked Pei to bring are your favorite snacks. These things may break if kept for a long time. You It’s better to order someone to take it out and store it in a cool place.”

After staying away from home in Pingyang for several years, she has never forgotten the snacks in her hometown. Now when she heard that her mother-in-law had brought food, she couldn't help but swallow her saliva, but she still had a serious look on her face: "My mother-in-law is really awesome. , Why bring some snacks? I'm not a child anymore, I'm still greedy for something to eat."

With that said, she called to the little girls: "Hurry up and open the box, take out the food and put it away first. It's not easy for cousin Pei to deliver it all the way, so don't let it spoil from boredom."

The girls responded and came forward to open the box. Although Pingyang looked calm on his face, his almond-shaped eyes were staring at the slowly opening box. When the girls opened the box, Pingyang saw the various snacks inside. , but she couldn't care about anything else, and stood up in a hurry and said in surprise: "Cousin, you brought all these snacks here, oh my, they are all the ones I liked when I was at home, oh my, I haven't tasted them in several years, I really saw them It’s convenient.”

As she spoke, Pingyang finally realized her gaffe. She quickly sat down again and smiled awkwardly at Pei Yunqian: "It's just a little bit of food. I'm so rude. I made my cousin laugh."

Love watched helplessly as her man, Sima Chao, married someone else to fulfill his ambition. She repeatedly forbeared because she firmly believed in the promise he made: she was the only one in his heart, and he would marry her with all his might.

It wasn’t until Sima Chao personally killed their flesh and blood in order to seize power that Love was awakened: How much sincerity could there be for a person who could even be cruel to his own children?

　　　It's just that he is lying and she is obsessed with it.

After starting over, Love felt cold towards him and decided not to make the same mistakes again.
