The Eldest Daughter's Marrying into a Royal Family is Extremely Difficult - Chapter 135

  ：、、、、、、、

  Lying on that intricately carved wooden bed, smelling the faint floral scent drifting in from outside the window, Jiu Si'er felt extremely comfortable and at ease.

  She turned over and over again, the space was spacious, the bedding was soft, looking at the exquisite sachets hanging on the four corners of the mosquito net, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

  This dead man must not come back tonight, tomorrow night, or the night after that... never come back again.

  A good night's sleep, and a rare good mood. Got up at 4am, and got dressed and washed under the service of Qing Xing.

  As usual, Yang Guofeng's concubines came to pay their respects, and she naturally sent them away as soon as possible. After having breakfast, she rushed straight to the Taihe Hall to pay her respects to Empress Dowager Meng.

  However, Old Lady Meng seemed to be in a bad mood, with a solemn and stern expression, as if she had a lot on her mind.

  The ninth sister couldn't help but feel a wave of doubt.

  Turning her head to look at Qin Shi and Xiao Yan Shi, they also had worried and cautious expressions.

  Her good mood was instantly discounted, and she felt like something big had happened.

  But what is it about? Is it related to Yang Guofeng's entry into the palace last night?

  Madam Meng naturally didn't have the heart to keep them chatting, so after asking about their well-being, she let them each return to their own rooms.

  Qin's family took the lead, followed closely by Xiao Yan's family, and then Xiao Yan's family. The three of them walked out of Taihe Hall together in a line, but when they reached the entrance, they ran into Yang Guoshou, the third master of the Yang family, who was walking towards them with big strides. He hastily entered Taihe Hall without even greeting anyone, and didn't even respond to his wife Xiao Yan's questions.

  Xiao Yan furrowed his brow, as if he wanted to say something.

  "The weather is bad, it's going to rain." But Qin Shi, who was walking in front, suddenly said in a low voice.

  Xiao Yan immediately looked up at the sky, and when he met the sunlight on top of his head, he was slightly stunned. He wanted to ask Qin Shi about it, but at this time, Qin Shi had already walked far away.

  She hastily rushed up to catch up.

  Jiujie, who was following behind the two of them, also looked up at the sky and then gazed at the figures of the two people before silently returning to the house.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, for two consecutive nights, Yang Guofeng did not return.

  But her mood was completely different from that of the first night, instead, she was nervous and full of worries.

  Uh...

  She was not worried about that unpleasant man, but worried about her own future and fate.

  Because this marriage, no matter how much she didn't want it, how much she rejected it, had already closely tied her fate with his.

  His honor is her honor, his shame is her shame, if he really has any misfortune, she will naturally have no good result.

  Now she can only silently pray for this man, hoping he will be fine, and she can also rest under the shade of this big tree...

  "The princess, just now Luo's mother came and said that today's early morning greeting is exempted, the old lady is not feeling well." At this time, Cui Cui, who was holding a basin of water, pushed open the door and interrupted Jiu Si'er's train of thought.

  "Oh..." Ninth Sister nodded, her heart growing even heavier.

  It seems like something big has happened!

  Madam Meng is certainly not uncomfortable physically, but rather mentally.

  These two days, with several adult men absent from the mansion... Yang Guoqing and Yang Guoshou also didn't come back last night and the night before.

  A gloomy cloud hangs over the imperial court.

  Although there is no frightening news coming, but all the men are not here, isn't this the best proof that something is wrong?

  No one says it, but everyone should understand it in their heart.

  However, the old lady still insisted on persevering, although her complexion was somewhat poor and she spoke much less, but she still ate and slept as usual, accepting the greetings of her children and grandchildren, and occasionally even went to the small garden to practice her boxing.

  The old man's actions made the people in the mansion feel much more at ease.

  But at this moment, the old man is also like this, isn't it... doesn't it represent that the situation is really very serious?

  Could she really be so unlucky? This princess has been on the throne for less than ten days.

  Cui Qiao, who was serving her while she washed and dressed, also seemed to be affected by the atmosphere of the mansion. Her beautiful face hung low, not making a sound.

  This made Jiu's mood even worse, and she casually let Cuiqiao help her tie a simple bun before going out to eat.

  Yang Guofeng's several concubines had been waiting outside and saw her come out and pay their respects.

  However, it can be seen that several people are also in a bad mood, with dull complexions and not well-dressed.

  Looking at the few people with a mournful appearance, she only felt her mood becoming increasingly annoyed, and was even more afraid that they would ask her about Yang Guofeng again. So she perfunctorily spoke a few words to them and sent them away.

  After a few people left, she hastily ate some food and sat in front of the window to embroider until Qingtao invited Zhou Dahan's wife Cuihong in.

  "What's going on?" she asked after letting Cuiqiao close the door.

  This was a serious matter, and others didn't mention it. As the new daughter-in-law who had been married for less than ten days, she naturally couldn't go around asking questions randomly. If she wanted to know, she could only let her husband Zhou Dahai secretly do this thing.

  "It seems that one of the princes in the palace was stabbed and seriously injured, and the assassin somehow got involved with the soldier who serves under the king... " Cui Hong replied softly.

  "Which prince?" Ninth Sister was taken aback at first, then asked in pursuit.

  "Who is it?" Cui Hong thought for a moment before answering somewhat uncertainly, "It seems to be... the Sixth Prince..."

  Her words were heard by Jiuniang, but they made her face change color.

  Ouyang Zhì? !

  "The river... The river also asked the gatekeeper at Ermen last night after drinking, maybe it's not reliable..." Cuihong is also a clever person, seeing her reaction, hurriedly and carefully said.

  She took a glance at Cui Hong, nodded, and then reminded her of a few words to be careful and cautious before letting her go back.

  She saw off Cui Hong and then couldn't bring herself to do anything else, standing by the window staring blankly outside.

  It's indeed serious, thinking about it, it involves the struggle for the throne, how can it not be serious?

  These six princes, Ouyang Jian and his mother, Empress Lan, had always been inclined towards the position of Crown Prince, but unfortunately, the weak and sickly Ouyang Zhi was in that position, so they resorted to all sorts of tactics.

  The result of having a hundred ways to get what they want naturally enraged Empress Yang and the Yang family, and it's very likely that something like an assassination will happen.

  And at this moment, it is related to the Five Elements Military Department under Yang Guofeng's jurisdiction, and the spearhead is pointing directly!

  She certainly believed that Yang Guo would not plan this assassination... uh, not only Yang Guo, but also Empress Yang, she believed that she wouldn't dare to take this risk, but the problem is that Emperor Xianzong didn't believe it.

  Uh...

  Of course, there is another situation, which is intentionally disbelieving.

  At the beginning, when she and Yang Guofeng were engaged, she had wondered why the queen's position of the powerful Wang Ye would fall to her, a small concubine from a declining family. Later, it was her fourth sister's husband, Xie Jun, who explained this point to her.

  The Emperor of the Showa era was actually quite wary of the power of the Yang family, and with Ou Yang Zhi's body, he really feared that one day the Ou Yang family's world would fall into the hands of outsiders, so naturally he hoped that the Yang family would marry a woman from a family without much power.

  It can be seen from this matter how he guarded against the Yang family, and how could he not have used this matter to strike at the Yang family's heart.

  I don't know how this Emperor of Showa plans to deal with the Yang family, whether it's a minor punishment or a major move...

  "Your Highness, lunch has been sent over, would you like it served?" Just then, Qing An pushed open the door and asked her.

  She was taken aback, only to realize that it had unknowingly become noon. With a heart full of worries, how could she eat? So she shook her head at the little girl, "I'm not hungry yet."

  "But..." Qing Xing wanted to say something else.

  "Go out first, let's talk later!" She waved her hand at her.

  The little girl had no choice but to leave.

  She continued staring outside in a daze, but before long, the door was pushed open again.

  "Let me calm down for a bit... okay?" She couldn't help but furrow her brow, turning her head, but when her gaze fell on the man at the door, the words that were about to come out of her mouth came to an abrupt halt.

  "Help me change into another set of clothes!"

  Yang Guofeng had already seen the surprised expression on his little wife's face, and his deep and sharp eyes couldn't help but flash with a hint of gentleness, but only for a moment before returning to their usual calm and collected state. He spoke in a flat tone, "Come."

  "Me?" Ninth Sister stared at the man who had been ordering her around like a servant girl.

  Yang Guofeng didn't say anything and turned around to walk into the inner room.

  Jiuer had no choice but to follow him in, only to discover that Yang Guofeng was personally opening the trunk and taking out clothes.

  She had no choice but to go forward, take his clothes and help him put them on.

  As she helped the man tie his shoelaces, her close-up gaze fell on the man's face, and only then did she notice that the man's complexion was sallow, with bloodshot eyes and a faint stubble around his lips.

  Her eyes suddenly welled up with tears, so she quickly lowered her head.

  "Let's go eat!" But unexpectedly, the man's low voice sounded in her ear, "I'm going to my mother's place!"

  She was taken aback.

  Yang Guofeng had already taken big strides out, but at the door he suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around and looked back at her, saying softly, "Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen!"

  She was stunned again, but the man's figure had already disappeared at the door.

  She gazed at the doorway for a long time, and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh, smiling faintly.

  Yang Guofeng didn't stay long at Meng Taifei's place and hurried back, then had the second half of lunch with Jiu Sier.

  After eating, Jiuniang felt that he should rest and sent all the maids away, going to the warm pavilion herself, fearing that she would disturb him.

  But unexpectedly he didn't sleep, instead he called someone in to attend to his bath and got dressed, then came out refreshed and was about to go out again.

  "Where is the king going?" she couldn't help but ask him.

  "I've already made an appointment with my uncle just now when I came back. He's going to Wang Jiu's place."

  "Ah......" Jiū jiě ér yī zhèng.

  Translation:

  "Ah......" Ninth sister was stunned.

  The matter of helping Wen Jing with the water diversion was supposed to be done two days ago, but now it's naturally delayed. But since it's already been delayed, who let it happen anyway?

  At this critical moment, he still remembers her, what can she say?

  But the man didn't care what she said, turned around and walked away, leaving Jiuniang standing there staring blankly at his back.

  Yang Guofeng came back very late at night. Jiujie had originally planned to wait for him, after all, his hard work this time was also for her.

  But in the end, I couldn't wait any longer and went to sleep ahead of time.

  But today Yang Guofeng didn't do as he usually did, watching her fall asleep and then quietly lying down beside her. Instead, he woke her up...

  ……

  Digression

  Should Xiaojiao repay Yang Guofeng?
