Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang attacked suddenly, and they caught the Jin Palace by surprise.

When the servants of the Jin Palace found out that it was Wang An and Concubine An arrived, they were so scared that their souls would fly. They rushed inside to inform the master, and when Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen arrived, they just saw Jiang Mingwei hurried out.

Prince Jin's mansion already had a regular wife, and the relatives visited Jiang Mingwei naturally. Jiang Mingwei had obviously just taken care of her, her face was rushed to powder, some traces were hidden, but her face was pale and unnatural, and she looked stiff and lifeless.

Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang came without warning, and they didn't even have a greeting card. It was actually a bit rude to come to the door abruptly. But who made Xie Xuanchen not a guest, but an older brother. What my brother did was unreasonable and reasonable.

Jiang Mingwei's complexion is not good, and looking at the scribbling of powder, I am afraid that his mental state was not suitable for meeting people. In this case, the guests should look away from him. However, it is strange that Mu Mingtang can be so considerate. The more inconvenient the owner, the more she has to ask.

"My prince and I were talking, but I didn't know what was wrong. Suddenly I wanted to see my third brother and younger siblings, so we came over. My younger siblings don't blame us for being abrupt, right?"

Jiang Mingwei smiled like a hostess. She intended to be decent and generous. However, her expression was stiff and her face was dead white. She looked a little rigid in every way: "Where does the sister-in-law say, we are a family and a neighbor, come and go. It's like your own home, how can it be abrupt?"

"That's good." Mu Mingtang nodded and said, "I'm relieved when my younger siblings say that, otherwise, I thought we were not here at the right time. By the way, why didn't I see King Jin?"

Jiang Mingwei was obviously more embarrassed after this sentence was said. She smiled reluctantly and said: "The prince has something else, and he is not in the house now. I will let someone call the prince."

Jiang Mingwei almost couldn't control the look on her face. Yesterday Xie Xuanji didn't know what news she heard, and even suspected her. Xie Xuanji was very dissatisfied in the palace, but because of the emperor and others, he barely endured it. When he finally returned from the palace, Xie Xuanji didn't even hide it, turned his head and went back to his yard.

Last night, Jiang Mingwei met the servants and went back to the house to watch the night. Even today, when Xie Xuanji came back, he went directly to Lianhan's yard, and never came to see her regular wife.

It happened that there were some problems with the procurement in the mansion. Xie Xuanji was unhappy, and said in front of Lianhan and many of his servants: "Since the princess doesn't have the energy to take care of these things, then just leave it alone, and leave the kitchen and procurement to Lianhan in the future. "

Jiang Mingwei cried for half the night last night, and cried for a long time because of this this afternoon. Before Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang came in, Jiang Mingwei was crying with the dowry mother. The dowry maid and the maid took turns to persuade them for a long time, and it was just one thing to let Jiang Mingwei relax and coax Xuanji. Tonight, no matter what, let Xie Xuanji stay overnight in her room.

Today's New Year's Day, it is related to the foundation of Zhengfei's body, and it must not be snatched by Lian Han.

Jiang Mingwei was fighting between the heavens and the people, but she suddenly heard that King An and Concubine An were here. Jiang Mingwei was so frightened that she quickly asked the maid to put powder on her face, which would cover the tears, and walked out quickly.

Xianxian met Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanchen at the door.

As for why Xie Xuanji is not here... Isn't this something completely predictable. Jiang Mingwei sent the maid to invite Xie Xuanji, and Mu Mingtang responded, not daring to ask Xie Xuanji again.

She already felt that the ancestor next to her was very upset, and she said to thank Xuanji again, to ensure that Xie Xuanchen would turn his face on the spot.

However, Mu Mingtang was also a little surprised. When she was in Mu's residence, her father stayed in her mother's house, and she also lived with Xie Xuanchen after she got married. In her impression, the place where the wife lived was by default a man's living place.

How do you see Jiang Mingwei here, it is not so? So when the guests came to the main courtyard of the back house, Jiang Mingwei had to send someone to invite Xie Xuanji. On the first day of the first lunar month, Xie Xuanji would not have any court affairs. At the moment, there are no visitors from Jin Dynasty. Where is Xie Xuanji?

It's about other people's housework, so Mu Mingtang is embarrassed to ask too much detail. And I don't know if it was Mu Mingtang's illusion, she was used to her own palace, and always felt that Jiang Mingwei was a bit crowded here, and it was too dark.

It is not spacious enough and bright enough, and it is far less comfortable than Yulintang.

They had a polite conversation here, and Xie Xuanji was late, and there was also a graceful young woman who came with him. Looking at the posture, Xie Xuanji also hurried here.

As soon as Xie Xuanji saw Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang in the room, he immediately handed over to apologize: "My minister is negligent, I don't know that my second brother is here. Please brother confess the crime."

"It's our sudden rise. No wonder you guys." After Xie Xuanchen finished speaking, he casually answered, "Do you and your wife live far away? Why does it take so long to get here?"

Xie Xuanchen happened to ask what Mu Mingtang wanted to ask. The smile on Jiang Mingwei's face stiffened. Only Xie Xuanji was still so good and angry. He lowered his head to apologize and said: "It's not the minister, let the brother wait a long time."

Seeing the scene froze, seeing the woman behind Xie Xuanji in a bun and wearing a pink dress, Ping Ping Tingting stepped forward to salute everyone: "Slavery pity, I have seen King An, Princess An."

Xie Xuanchen glanced at the woman, and immediately guessed her identity. Xie Xuanchen didn't want to pay any attention to her at all, and his face clearly showed this. Xie Xuanchen didn't speak, and Jiang Mingwei also deliberately pretended to be deaf and dumb. The woman bowed for a long time but was ignored. Slowly, her body began to tremble slightly, looking very delicate.

After all, it was Mu Mingtang who couldn't see it in the first place and asked, "This one is?"

A cold light flashed in Jiang Mingwei's eyes, and she obviously hated the woman in front of her. However, Xie Xuanji was already dissatisfied. Jiang Mingwei did not dare to provoke Xuanji's dissatisfaction, so she could only reluctantly introduce: "This is a concubine in the mansion, who is called a pity, and has served the prince. Now it is the mansion's assistant kitchen and procurement. The hero."

Mu Mingtang gave a low voice. In fact, looking at the dressing, you know that this is Xie Xuanji's concubine, but the amount of information revealed in Jiang Mingwei's words can be described as huge, at least much more exciting than Mu Mingtang thought.

It seems that this is a very famous concubine who dared to pretend to be sick and rob Jiang Mingwei on the fifteenth day. Mu Mingtang originally thought that even if he was pampered, he would be a concubine after all. How could he be better than Jiang Mingwei, who also gathered childhood sweethearts, famous couples, Ming media is getting married, and young white moonlight. No matter how arrogant the concubine is, it can only reflect Jiang Mingwei's magnanimity, and in the end it is a pinch of cannon fodder at Jiang Mingwei's feet.

But after listening to Jiang Mingwei’s words, this little concubine even robbed part of the housekeeping rights?

Mu Mingtang wowed softly in her heart. She looked around and finally realized that she seemed to have strayed into the battlefield of a wives-concubine struggle. This concubine who looked very scheming not only underestimated Jiang Mingwei's favor, but even wanted to grab the housekeeping rights with Jiang Mingwei, which is really not small.

Lianhan is now in its heyday, and Xie Xuanji is very fond of her. He is not in the main courtyard on the first day of the new year. Instead, he comes to her small courtyard and personally speaks to Lianhan to help the housekeeper. Lianhan's momentum is like a rainbow, and even dared to compete with the royal concubine in front of outsiders: "The princess is a slave and so on. The slave is not as noble as the princess, and he is not as good as the princess who has a poem. The prince has nothing to worry about. The slave and maidservant are naturally not as intelligent as the princess, but as long as the prince speaks, there is a sea of ​​swords and flames ahead, and the slave and maid must try it. The slave does all this for the prince, how dare you take credit?"

Gee, wonderful. If it were not for the wrong occasion, Mu Mingtang would like to applaud. This pity really didn't live up to her very scheming look when she looked at it, and it was not good. Jiang Mingwei deliberately killed him, and Lianhan first pretended to be weak, and finally used Xie Xuanji as a shield to retreat as an advance, and attribute all his actions to Xie Xuanji. In this way, it can be said that both hit back at Jiang Mingwei and Xie Xuanji's goodwill. The most important thing is that Lianhan himself is still an innocent, pitiful, bullied white lotus.

Very good, they succeeded in arousing Mu Mingtang's interest. Mu Mingtang changed his posture, leaned on the armrest, and watched the scene with interest. She comes from a small place, short-sighted, and has never seen a wife and concubine fight in a living high-door compound.

Xie Xuanchen knew immediately that Mu Mingtang was interested, and she was obviously planning to sit and appreciate it. Knowing that he would not be able to go back for a while, Xie Xuanchen took a chestnut to Mu Mingtang on his own initiative and asked, "Would you like to eat it?"

Mu Mingtang nodded quietly. Xie Xuanchen squeezed his fingers lightly, and the nuts fell out completely. Xie Xuanchen handed it to Mu Mingtang, who also picked it up casually.

In order not to disturb the two heroines, she deliberately relaxed when she bit something.

However, Mu Mingtang just let it go, she and Xie Xuanchen will never disappear. Jiang Mingwei glanced at Mu Mingtang quickly from the corner of her eye, and she was very unwilling to expose the indecent side of her life in front of Mu Mingtang. Jiang Mingwei became anxious, and her tone became blunt: "In front of foreign visitors, how can you be a concubine to speak? The prince asked you to buy temporarily as a stopgap measure. Now you have not done anything practical, and you are rampant in front of me. Woke up?"

Jiang Mingwei's tone was urgent and rushing, which shows that he has been really angry for a long time. Lianhan's eyes reddened when she heard it, and she knelt on the ground and wiped her tears, and her shoulders shrugged: "The slave and the maidservant make the princess unhappy, and the slave is guilty. The prince, the slave and the maid are humble and shouldn't solicit some noble jobs. , You better take it back! The servants are not worthy."

Lianhan started crying as she said it, and finally choked up. Jiang Mingwei wanted to send the pity down as soon as possible, but she cried in front of everyone, as if she had suffered a great grievance. Jiang Mingwei endured the anger for a long time and couldn't control it. "Why are you crying? You are just a concubine room. The housekeeper is not something you can imagine. Even if you take it back, it is justified. Who is it for you to cry like this?"

Lianhan didn't speak, but cried more sadly. This is Xie Xuanji's woman after all, crying like this Xie Xuanji really can't stand it, and said in a deep voice, "It's the New Year, so what kind of demeaning is it to cry and cry? Help auntie up."

Lianhan cried, Jiang Mingwei was obviously delighted, and then scolded: "That is, crying for the New Year, people who don't know think what's wrong with you, bad luck."

Lianhan was supported by the maid to stand up, although there was still uneasy expression in her eyes, she did not dare to cry anymore. Jiang Mingwei was so unhappy that he was chasing after the victory, but Xie Xuanji frowned and looked at her and said, "You don't want to say a few words, it's just the new year, so it's so hostile."

Jiang Mingwei's expression was stunned, and she looked at Xie Xuanji in disbelief. Hostile? Xie Xuanji actually said that she was full of hostility?

"Lord..."

Jiang Mingwei just spoke out, and seeing the opportunity to stop her, she said softly and weakly: "The princess is also kind, and the prince should not be angry with the princess for the sake of the servant. It's just that the princess has been in poor health recently and was sick last year. , I just got better at the end of the year, and I coughed again these few days. The well-being of the princess is the health of the whole house. If the princess is overworked, tired and sick, then it is our sin. The princess has been recuperating recently and should not be worried about it. If, let the servants continue to share some chores for the princess."

Jiang Mingwei was angry when she heard it. She thought she had just pityed her and said that she wanted to hand over the housekeeping rights. It was considered interesting and the matter was resolved. Unexpectedly, Lianhan was just acting, but actually didn't give up. Jiang Mingwei was not anxious, and forced her eyes to look at Xie Xuanji: "The prince, your wife and concubine are different, please think twice."

Lianhan knelt down equally unwilling to show weakness, and said softly and repeatedly: "Lord."

Jiang Mingwei and Lianhan are tit-for-tat, not giving way to each other. The end of the contradiction is Xie Xuanji. Xie Xuanji could not help hesitating. One was his wife and the other was his favorite concubine. Jiang Mingwei had the Jiang family behind him. He couldn't bear to lose the face of Lian Han. It was really hard to choose...

Xie Xuanji was in a dilemma. For a while, he was angry with Jiang Mingwei and Lian Han. Do these two women have to pick things up? Even if they are not gentle and honest, they can't even get along with each other in harmony?

Xie Xuanji was hesitating. At this moment, a chestnut fell to the ground and Gululu flicked beside Lianhan's clothes. The field was already very quiet, suddenly a chestnut appeared, and everyone's eyes turned to the other side.

Mu Mingtang blinked innocently with the shredded shell still remaining on his fingers. She didn't hold her hands firmly and fell to the ground by accident. Mu Mingtang didn't expect such a coincidence, and he just rolled over to Lian Han.

"I said that it's not good, you have to try it yourself." Xie Xuanchen jumped out of the fruit tray as if at his own home, and handed it to Mu Mingtang, "This mouth has been cracked. Good pinch. Try this if you want to do it yourself."

Mu Mingtang took the chestnut lightly, not forgetting to smile at the people next to him: "I'm just pinching a chestnut, don't say hello, you continue."

Mu Mingtang squeezed, and sure enough, the shell cracked in the middle. It's just that the strength of Mu Mingtang's hands is not enough after all. When she peeled off the whole chestnut skin, the nuts were already broken into several pieces. She saw Xie Xuanchen completely peeling off a chestnut, and she was very jealous: "Why can you peel so complete, mine is broken?"

"Don't just use brute force, use cleverness." Xie Xuanchen said as he picked up another chestnut and separated it completely in front of her. "You see, it's very simple."

Mu Mingtang was sour and said, "I want to eat yours."

Xie Xuanchen handed her hand naturally and took away the nuts she peeled off casually. Mu Mingtang looked at Li Ziren, whose palms were intact, and was amazed. When she looked up, she found that the Zhaidou trio over there were all looking at her.

Mu Mingtang realized that she and Xie Xuanchen seemed to be too arrogant. She changed the posture of watching the show and compared her hands with the protagonist: "No interruption, just keep talking. Who is the stewardship in the end?"

Xie Xuanji's face turned from white to black, and he was obviously gloomy. What are Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang doing? Did you order a play?

Jiang Mingwei and Lianhan know the faces best, and at a glance they know that Xie Xuanji is really angry this time, and they dare not speak at the moment, let alone fight for housekeeping rights.

Xie Xuanji said with a calm face, "It is really rude to argue about these trivial matters in front of my second brother and sister-in-law. I neglect my brother-in-law and let my brother-in-law and sister-in-law hear these disgraceful things. The ministers have no place to show themselves."

What a shame? Mu Mingtang smiled meaningfully and said: "Yin and Yang are in harmony, husband and wife have a relationship. This is normal. The third brother's house is prosperous, and the family lives under the same roof. It is normal for some bumps and bumps. What can be called disgraceful things? The third brother said this, it seems that the younger brother and sister have done something."

Jiang Mingwei's face was also ugly. When she heard Mu Mingtang's words, she didn't know whether to thank or refute. She said that Mu Mingtang had no good intentions, she was still talking to herself, to say that she was kind... But when these words came out of Mu Mingtang's mouth, why did it sound so uncomfortable?

Lian Han's eyes rolled around, timidly saluting: "What Princess An said is that the slave family would like to thank Princess An."

Mu Mingtang smiled, his eyes staying on Lian Han for a while, smiling without saying a word. Lianhan was hairy by Mu Mingtang's eyes, with weak questions on his face, and asked: "Why does Princess An look at slaves like this?"

Mu Mingtang completely ignored her, instead looking at Xie Xuanji: "Third brother, although I am not your sister-in-law, but I am the princess who is dying of life after all. At any time, I was reduced to a nameless servant. Concubine dialogue?"

When Lianhan heard that her face changed drastically, Jiang Mingwei was relieved and embarrassed, stood up and said: "Sister-in-law, forgive me, the prince and I did not mean that. This concubine is humble and arrogant, and I don't know the manners. Please don't care about her."

Even Xie Xuanji stood up and apologized. Mu Mingtang patted the chestnut residue on his hands, and the maid immediately handed the wet kerchief to Mu Mingtang. Mu Mingtang wiped his fingers carefully, as if the other people were not important at all, and his fingers were the most important thing.

Mu Mingtang said slowly, "This is your family affair. Your brother and I are outsiders. How the King Jin places his wives and concubines has nothing to do with us. Naturally, I don’t care about a concubine, but I really don’t want to be a concubine. The concubine cries around and drinks."

Lianhan immediately knelt down to plead guilty, her face was shockingly pale, this time she was really trembling. Xie Xuanji lowered his head and glanced at Lianhan, suppressed his emotions, said nothing, and still apologized to Mu Mingtang: "It is the minister's disciplining that is unfavorable, so that the lowly concubine has offended his sister-in-law. Although the second sister-in-law will never appear again in the future. Kind of thing."

Mu Mingtang didn't care at all when she heard that, anyway, she didn't often come to the palace of the Jin Dynasty. How would Xie Xuanji deal with his Yingying Yanyan, and what to do with her? Mu Mingtang said that he had cleaned his hands, and watched the play and ate the chestnuts. Mu Mingtang was satisfied and stood up and planned to go back home: "This is your housework. It's fine for King Jin to do as he pleases. It's not early. , We should also go back. King Jin and Princess Jin stay."

Xie Xuanchen thought that he could leave, and immediately got up, almost unable to wait to leave.

Mu Mingtang said to stay, but Xie Xuanji didn't dare to not send it. He and Jiang Mingwei sent the two to the gate of the second door. On the way, Xie Xuanji looked at Mu Mingtang's red dress and bright hair crown, and realized that his wife was a wife and a concubine was a concubine. It was really insurmountable.

No matter how careful Lianhan is, she will be a concubine after all, serving him privately, and she can't even wince on serious occasions. On occasions like Xiang Fang, Lianhan can only reply, and even talking to Mu Mingtang is offensive.

Such an identity, no matter what the actual ability of Lianhan, the reputation of being a housekeeper will only make people laugh. Not even just to assist.

Xie Xuanji dispelled the idea of ​​letting Lianhan assist in the internal affairs. He originally only wanted to use Lianhan to beat Jiang Mingwei, but Lianhan's status was too low and he acted arrogantly, which might not be a good choice. There is a way to alert Jiang Mingwei, but if the Jin Dynasty is ridiculed by others, it will be more than worth the loss.

After Xie Xuanji made up his mind, before Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang went out, he said: "Today Ji concubine is rude and offensive. The minister apologizes to his elder brother and sister-in-law. After all, there is a difference between his wife and his concubine. The second brother is the model. Make the mistake of petting concubines and destroying their wives? It is the princess's responsibility to manage the house affairs. It is a joke to ask Ji concubine to assist her, and it should not be true."

Jiang Mingwei showed an unexpected look. She really didn't expect that the things that had been disgusting for her for so long would be solved in this way. She said so much just now, Xie Xuanji only felt that she was hostile, but only a few words from Mu Mingtang, Xie Xuanji changed his mind?

Jiang Mingwei looked at Xie Xuanji incredulously. Mu Mingtang hadn't spoken yet, but Xie Xuanchen laughed. The ridicule in her voice was clear: "Forget it, I didn't show you how to marry a wife and concubine. No one wants to care about your own affairs, but if the woman who put you offends Mingtang, it means that you are wrong. Today is the New Year, it is not suitable for a big fight, I will not send you off. But if there is another next time, I don’t care what occasion , Can you get off the stage. If you want to maintain your face in front of women, then take care of them and stop messing with me."

Xie Xuanji was said to be skinless and faceless, but he didn't dare to refute it at all. He could only lower his head and replied respectfully: "The second brother taught me that I remembered it."

The atmosphere was very serious, Mu Mingtang and Jiang Mingwei stood aside and did not interrupt. After Xie Xuanchen trained Xie Xuanji, he turned his head and looked at Mu Mingtang still relaxed and casual: "Let's go, let's go home."

Mu Mingtang gave an "um", and finally glanced at Xie Xuanji and Jiang Mingwei, then turned and chased Xie Xuanchen away.

This drama committee is really an unexpected joy. Mu Mingtang was swept away by the depression of the Jiang family, and he was very comfortable.

In the evening, after Mu Mingtang took a shower, she had nothing to do because she had to wait for her hair to dry naturally, and she couldn't help but remember what she saw in the afternoon. Mu Mingtang sighed sincerely: "The next door is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, it's really wonderful."

Xie Xuanchen had just taken a bath, and his hair was half dry. He glanced at her amusedly when he heard what she said, "Is it finally fun now?"

"Yeah." Mu Mingtang nodded, "I am happy to see that they are not doing well."

After Mu Mingtang said this, he felt that it was not right. A man who lived like Xie Xuanji seemed to have nothing to do with a bad life from any angle.

The young Bai Yueguang became his regular wife, her concubine was charming and weak, and her beautiful maidservant hugged her from left to right. Although there were more fights between women, it was all because of him. How many men dream of Xie Xuanji's life.

And Jiang Mingwei may not be unwilling. Mu Mingtang sighed here that Xie Xuanji's backyard was full of smog. Maybe Jiang Mingwei was proud that she was a regular wife and had the right to take care of her disobedient concubine.

A's honey and B's arsenic are not the parties involved. Mu Mingtang rigorously revised the wording and said: "I can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, so I should take it back. Jiang Mingwei is a first-class princess, and the scenery is infinite, and Xie Xuanji is also a prince. The happiness of people, how can this be called a bad life? I am speculating here, maybe people themselves are very happy in it."

Xie Xuanchen glanced at Mu Mingtang and couldn't help reminding: "You are also the princess."

"I know I know, this is not what I want to say." Mu Mingtang approached and asked Xie Xuanchen in a low voice, "I have a question that I am particularly curious about. If it were you today, how would you handle the conflict between your wives and concubines?"

Here again, Xie Xuanchen glanced at Mu Mingtang helplessly, and said: "Your sentence is not true, I have no concubine."

"I didn't make you want to be a concubine, so I asked if you stood in Xie Xuanji's position, how would you deal with today's affairs." After Mu Mingtang finished speaking, he gave Xie Xuanchen a disgusting look, "Is this your sincere heart" What? Do you want to take a concubine?"

Xie Xuanchen raised his eyebrows and felt that he was extremely wronged: "Who thinks? I didn't say anything from start to finish, and you are raking it back."

Mu Mingtang thought about it, but Xie Xuanchen did not say anything. Since she provoked it, this topic can be turned over. Mu Mingtang quickly skipped the incident and said, "Don't entangle with irrelevant things. I am particularly curious about what men think about these similar things."

Xie Xuanchen didn't even think about it, and said, "What is there to consider, that woman..."

"Pity." Mu Mingtang reminded him quietly beside him. Xie Xuanchen remembered his name, and then said: "The pity of the pity is not correct. He has repeatedly discredited the mistress, and also wanted to confuse the mistress's housekeeping power on the grounds of sharing worries. What is left of such a scourge of the house?"

Mu Mingtang looked at him in surprise: "So you can see it?"

Xie Xuanchen gave a hum, and felt that this sentence was not quite right after responding: "What does it mean to be able to see it? Isn't such a clumsy trick obvious?"

Mu Mingtang seemed to have refreshed his cognition and sighed sincerely: "I always thought that only women can tell that women can pretend to be pitiful, but men can also. Since you can see at a glance, why can't Xie Xuanji work? Time, Xie Xuanji has been moved by Lian Han. Could it be that he is the kind of person who is shrewd outside but messed up in his own home?"

Xie Xuanchen laughed and said softly, "How is it possible."

"Ok?"

"It's not that men don't intrigue. The truth in the court hall is true and false, and the fights are more fierce than those in the back house. If he can't even see the relationship between the back house, how can he enter the court hall? "

"But Xie Xuanji is toward Lianhan." Mu Mingtang said, "He still feels that Lianhan is very weak and innocent."

"Because that is his woman." Xie Xuanchen said nonchalantly, "He doesn't understand, but his emotions will blind his judgment. If it were me, I would be partial to my own woman. If you scold the Jiang family, I think you are What I said is justified, very reasonable, and pitiful."
