Chapter 194: Xu Jiner and the Sixth Consort
Chapter 194 Xu Jiner and the Sixth Prince-in-law
Jing Yu came to Xu Ruyi and said to Xu Ruyi: "Is this bringing the fifth sister back?"
Xu Ruyi smiled and said, "Yes! Be a companion for me on weekdays, so I can save myself from being bored when you are away."
Jing Yu sighed: "It's not bad, after all, the fifth sister is indeed quite well-behaved."
Xu Ruyi replied: "Don't describe her like this. The more you praise her for being good, the more she will be good in the future. After a long time, people will be no longer angry."
Jing Yu scratched his head, not knowing that there was such a statement. If the words could control a person, Xiao Cao would have grasped the brothers thoroughly.
Xu Ruyi turned her head and asked Jing Yu, "What have you been doing after sending the Second Prince away? I haven't seen you at home in the past few days."
Jing Yu replied: "I went to the palace and asked the official family. I want to find out if I have the opportunity to become an official in the future."
"What do the officials say?"
Jing Yu paused, not knowing whether the next news would be a good or a bad thing for her.
"The official said that it will be a provincial examination in two months, so I will take the provincial examination invigilator in surrounding townships."
Xu Ruyi: “…”
You should know that after Qi Teng came back, Xu Yinghong deliberately transferred him to Dali Temple. As a result, Qi Teng was too lazy to go to Jing Xi, so he went to the Ministry of Revenue and now works under Jing Xi.
Although this has made Xu Chang look so mean, he is still a serious official no matter what.
And what about Jing Yu?
After coming out of Changqing Palace, Xu Mingxiao became the crown prince and Qi Teng became the capital official, but Jing Yu was not sure what he had gained. He seemed to have returned empty-handedly. He felt it was inappropriate, so he went to Xu Yinghong to discuss the matter. Unexpectedly, Xu Yinghong's answer was to go to the provincial examination for invigilance.
Xu Ruyi smiled and said, "Mosquito legs are also fleshy, just go. Do it well then, maybe your father will appreciate you."
Jing Yu curled his lips, and after a while, he nodded.
The capital seemed to have returned to peace, and everyone found what they should do.
A month later, the palace held another banquet. This time, Xu Jiner came much earlier than before. She was wearing a gorgeous dress and supporting her disabled prince-consort, and sat in the right seat.
The sixth prince consort was used to being a concubine's son and was a little surprised: "Can we sit on this?"
Xu Jiner smiled and said, "Of course! Queen Chen slightly changed the family tree and adopted the palace under her name. In this way, no one can question whether we are suitable for us to get together."
Although this matter is quite absurd, the Sixth Prince-Confucian could fully feel the helplessness of Queen Chen at that time, he still smiled and congratulated Xu Jin'er.
But he was not sure about it - Xu Jiner planned for a long time, and chose to sacrifice her marriage just for Empress Chen to transform herself into a legitimate daughter.
Xu Changjiao was always sitting with Qi Tengluo. As usual, Xu Changjiao is a good chat. She can chat with anyone, but as she chatted, the other party found that Xu Changjiao must say the first thing. Even if Xu Changjiao hasn't understood many things, she had to point fingers to highlight the uniqueness of her legitimate princess.
And what about Xu Ruyi? Just like in the past, she fed Jing Yu delicious food in public. Jing Yu is much bolder now than before. What did she feed him? He also feeds her the same food.
Their behavior made the other couples angry. After all, the marriage between Xu Changjiao and Xu Jiner was a problem after all. Of course, Xu Ruyi's son-in-law was not perfect, but Xu Ruyi particularly missed his son-in-law.
Except for the eldest son-in-law, Xu Mingshu had no backer. He kept asking the eldest son-in-law to drink less wine at the banquet. If his father asked him to do anything, he would definitely be out of control.
Xu Yinghong looked at the four couples below and felt a lot of emotion.
He had two queens and had many beauties in the harem at the same time. How could he not see the marriage status of these young couples?
But he just observed silently and watched their actions at the banquet.
Jing Yu also noticed the one-eyed concubine at the banquet. The man also glanced at Jing Yu, as if he recognized the hatred he had with Jing Yu back then.
Xu Ruyi's eyes also looked at the man, and he saw that he was also staring at Xu Ruyi, not knowing what the other party was staring at.
However, after Xu Jiner turned to Empress Chen's name, she became much tougher. She did not let her husband look away, but instead smiled and said to Xu Ruyi: "What do the third sister think of the prince consort in this palace?"
Xu Ruyi chuckled: "Don't say that on the day you got married, I couldn't see the sixth prince-consort clearly. This is the first time I saw you today. I couldn't help but feel a little emotional. It was a while since I saw you, my sister was already married. It's really incredible to think about it."
"I fell in love with my husband at first sight. Since we are in love with each other, we won't wait. Now the husband is very good at treating me, and the food, clothing and consumption are excellent."
While holding the meat for Xu Ruyi, Jing Yu started to think: How good are these people willing to brag about how good the food and clothing her husband gives him? Xu Ruyi has never mentioned this, but Jing Yu can guarantee that the food and clothing she gives her is not available in the entire Zhou Dynasty.
But Xu Ruyi smiled and replied, "That's really good. A while ago, I heard from Chang that after she married into the Marquis' Mansion, my mother-in-law went to her to buy expensive ones for her and bought them good ones. If she was frugal, her mother-in-law would be angry with her."
"Isn't that good?" Xu Jiner asked curiously, "The third sister and sister Chang are the same mother-in-law, why don't the third sister mention the good things about mother-in-law?"
Xu Ruyi chuckled and said, "I like to live my own life with my husband. The husband has handled the matters in money very well. There is no need for others to buy it, and there is no need for mother-in-law to give it to me. After all, the husband has handed over the entire capital industry to me. If I have hands and feet, I can decide what I want."
Xu Jiner choked slightly.
Fortunately, she didn't show off her special show in front of Xu Ruyi. After all, Xu Ruyi's expression was still a little disdainful. Her words also gave Jing Yu enough face, and she compared the other prince consorts' economic abilities in terms of their words.
But this obviously made Qi Teng unhappy. He immediately asked Xu Ruyi, "Is the third prince consort still idle at home?"
As soon as these words were finished, Jing Yu glared at Qi Teng fiercely.
If Qi Teng lives smoothly, it would be really blind.
Jing Yu then said, "I wonder why I am idle in the eyes of the fifth prince consort?"
Qi Teng smiled and said, "There must be a one-official or half-official?"
Qi Teng's mouth twitched slightly, his eyes fell on Xu Jin'er's son-in-law, and he asked, "When it comes to this, I don't know what the sixth son-in-law is doing now? Does the sixth son-in-law have an official position?"
He turned around and planned to pull the Sixth Prince Consort, who was supposed to be his mortal enemy, into the water. Facing the mean-mouthed person, he should find a few people to form a group to fight back.
