    ?

    Xie Yan was fully dressed and was waiting on the inner room. Seeing the steward entering alone, he was startled for a moment, and then a little embarrassed: "Where is Madam, haven't you come?"

    The steward said respectfully: "Madam left with Sanniang, Liulang and Mr. Xiaolang."

    "How did you leave?" Xie Yan was a little surprised, and asked: "Did you tell her that I am seriously ill?"

    The steward hurriedly said: "According to your order, everything that needs to be said has been said."

    Xie Yan sat up, remained silent, with a gloomy expression.

    Seeing that his complexion was not very good, the steward quickly lowered his head and said, "Actually, madam still cares about you"

    Xie Yan hesitated for a moment, and said: "What did Madam say?"

    The steward was stunned and lowered his head: "Madam said, I want you to drink more hot water."

    "They didn't come to see me, they didn't even come to see me," Xie Yanxu whispered, "We've been married for so many years"

    Mrs. Xing Guogong's 60th birthday was far more lively than expected.

    The sixtieth year, although it is not older than the year of the King of Han who held a birthday a few days ago, it is still considered a long life. The Lu family is quite famous among the scholars, and the granddaughter has a new queen. Their old lady's birthday, Chang'an nobles will basically pass  walk around.

    The Xie family went very early, and the three gentlemen, Xie Yun, Xie Liang, and Xie Tan, were the first guests of the day.

    Although Xing Guogong is still in good health, he is old after all, and he has entrusted all matters in the mansion to the elder son. When the Xie family arrived, the eldest son of the elder son Lu Zhiyu, An Yan, greeted him, and the cousins ??exchanged greetings.  After saying a word, Lu Anyan led the way, and went to kowtow to Xing Guogong and his wife together.

    The eldest son Lu Zhiyu is the younger brother of the Lu family. His eldest son is only fifteen years old. He is a little immature in welcoming and sending him off.  Gentlemen can't help but also help.

    Xie Hualang and Mrs. Lu arrived not too late, only later than the gentlemen of the Xie family. Lu Zhiyu and his wife Mrs. Feng went out to welcome them, and Xie Yan was with him.

    When Xie Hualang saw it, he almost thought he had made a mistake, took a look, and tentatively said: "Father arrived earlier than us."

    Xie Yan didn't look at her, but quietly glanced at Lu Shi, then retracted his gaze, and said, "Yes."

    Xie Hualang vaguely understood that seeing her father like this was really pitiful, but children should not open their mouths about their husband and wife. She turned around and looked around, but still did not make a sound.

    On the contrary, Lu Zhiyu asked with some concern: "Brother-in-law, is it all right? I see that your complexion is not very good."

    Lu's demeanor was calm and gentle, and he also warned: "Master has stomach discomfort recently, don't drink alcohol at the banquet, and eat less cold food."

    "Understood." Xie Yan responded first, and then answered Lu Zhiyu: "I'm fine, don't worry."

    Xing Guogong was five years older than his wife, but he was very energetic. Seeing his daughter coming, he didn't care about greetings, so he and his wife bowed to greet their granddaughter first.

    Xie Hualang was taken aback, and hurriedly told the old man to stand up, then Xing Guogong stood up, stroked his beard and said: "The ceremony cannot be broken, the empress has not performed the wedding ceremony yet, relying on this old bone, we can temporarily avoid going out, and if we don't  Saluting, it is not in accordance with the rules."

    "After the national ceremony, it is a family ceremony. What's the 'empress' and not 'empress', your grandfather is old and confused, Zhizhi ignore him."

    Mrs. Xing Guogong was in her sixtieth year, with silver strands in her temple hair, and she was quite graceful. She held her granddaughter's hand and smiled happily: "Tell them to go out and do business, let's talk here."

    There are many things in the mansion today, and it is inevitable that Mrs. Lu has to take care of them with her younger siblings. Xie Wei and Xie Lan are still young, so they have nothing to do, but children can't hold back their hearts. After kowtowing to their grandmother/great-grandmother, they will  He ran out to play with the cousins ??of the Lu family, and after a while, only Mrs. Xing Guogong, Xie Hualang, and even a few female relatives of the Lu family were left in the inner room.

    "Guests will be here soon, you should go out and play too," Mrs. Xing Guogong said to her granddaughters with a smile, "The flowers in the back garden are all blooming, so it's good to go there for a stroll."

    The gentlemen and girls of the Lu family are all younger than the Xie family. The girls here are only twelve or thirteen years old, and the youngest are only five or six years old. The female family members originally wanted their daughters to be the same as the queen.  To say a few more words, now hearing my mother-in-law say this, although I was a little disappointed in my heart, I didn't dare to show it on my face. After bowing my knees and saluting, I beckoned my daughter to leave together.

    The servants retreated at some point, and there were only grandparents and grandchildren in the inner room. Mrs. Xing Guogong had a white porcelain plate beside her hand, which contained light-colored walnut kernels. She picked up a piece and put it into her mouth.  , after swallowing,Don't dare to say too much.

    Gu Mingjiong said to the maidservant: "You just go back to your mother and say that Gu Mingjiong, Zheng Silu and Zheng Siping are asking to see each other."

    The maid went back, Xie Hualang couldn't help laughing when he saw them going up the road, stood up and went to the inner room, put up the screen, and said to the few people to enter: "Why are you here?"

    Gu Mingjiong bowed and said: "The two cousins ??offended the empress earlier, and today they came here to make amends."

    Xie Hualang neither said good nor bad, but said: "That Mr. Siping is also from Prince Ji's residence, so he must have something to do with Miss Yanxiu?"

    Siping got up and saluted: "Yanxiu is my sister."

    "Oh, I remembered," Xie Hualang said: "Your sister mentioned to me that she has two younger brothers, and that she went to perform at the Princess's mansion that day was also for your future."

    Siping heard her words, her face flushed immediately, she knelt down, and begged: "My sister offended the empress that day, it was because of me and my younger brother, I beg the empress to show her a noble hand and forgive her once."

    "Why," Xie Hualang said, "what's wrong with your sister?"

    Siping clenched her fingers, and said with humiliation: "Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king. Your majesty bestowed the marriage, and my sister dared not harbor resentment. It's just that your majesty released the man who bestowed the marriage. The sky is high and the road is far away. It's really worrying  "

    Xie Hualang only knew that Gu Jingyang had married all the girls of the Zheng family's age, but he didn't know about the release. Hearing Siping's sad words, he couldn't help asking: "Where did the outsiders go?"

    Siping said: "Fengzhou in the north."

    Xie Hualang said: "Excellent."

    "You!" Seeing her speaking softly before, Siping thought she was easy to talk to, but now hearing her speak like this, her heart is like falling into a cave of ice, resentment in her heart, she was about to stand up, but was kicked by Gu Mingjiong  Suddenly, he fell to his knees, and he immediately came back to his senses and lowered his head again.

    Through the screen, Xie Hualang saw that scene vaguely and not very clearly. She didn't mind it, and turned to the person standing on one side, and said: "Is that Silu from Daiwangfu? It's better to meet each other than to be famous."

    Silu's skin was much thicker than Siping's, so he quickly knelt down and said humbly: "I deserve to die, I'm covered in lard and offended my mother."

    As he spoke, he raised his hand and smacked his mouth a few times. Just listening to the sound, he knew that he had used a lot of strength.

    Xie Hualang looked down at him, and said calmly: "What's wrong with you?"

    Silu stopped moving, but he didn't dare to elaborate, and said vaguely: "I was really confused earlier, and I made the empress upset"

    Xie Hualang listened impatiently, and said softly: "The cicadas on the tree outside are singing, and I am also very upset."

    Silu was choked by her words, looked embarrassed, smiled awkwardly, and said nothing.

    Siping raised her head and said earnestly: "Your Majesty, you also have a younger brother. As an elder sister, you can understand my elder sister's painstaking efforts better. I beg you to hold your hand high and spare my elder sister this time."

    "I do have a younger brother, but he never asked me to dedicate myself in exchange for glory and wealth for him. Of course," Xie Hualang took a sip of tea, his tone flat, but his expression was a little fierce: "If he dares to say such a thing, he doesn't need his parents."  Discipline, I'll break his legs! What's the difference between a half-hearted man and a woman?"

    Siping became more and more embarrassed, her cheeks were so red that blood dripped, she gritted her teeth and said, "I never thought about that! Just because our surname is Zheng, do you deny everything about us? If it weren't for this damned background, you wouldn't even give up on your sister's life."  No finger can compare!"

    "Oh," Xie Hualang held up the round fan, slapped it lightly twice, and said, "Then your sister must have big fingers."

    "You!" Siping was suffocated by her words, her throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton, and she was unable to speak again.

    Xie Hualang kept rolling the fan in his hand, and said: "Mr. Siping is crazy, if you don't take him out, if he dares to yell loudly, say something is gone, and spoil grandma's birthday banquet, I will reward him with thirty boards.  It¡¯s mine to be disabled.¡±

    Siping still had reason, hearing what she said, she immediately shut her mouth tightly, but her eyes were full of resentment.

    Xie Hualang couldn't see it, and even if she saw it, she wouldn't care. She turned to Gu Mingjiong and said indifferently, "How could Prince Liang get involved in these things?"

    "Your Majesty, please forgive me and ask for help on behalf of the palace. I really can't get rid of my feelings." Gu Mingjiong lowered his head and said respectfully: "Siping is young, and I have offended you. Please forgive me, Madam, and don't be as knowledgeable as him."

    Xie Hualang smiled and said, "What screen?"

    Gu Mingjiong said: "Siping."

    Xie Hualang said again: "What are you thinking about?"

    Gu Mingjiong paused for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty, this is intentional to tease people."

    "You have finally seen it. One must first love oneself, and then others love others; one must first respect oneself, and then others respect others. He humiliates himself, and he is no different from others."

    "Of course," Xie Hualang said, "this sentence is also bestowed on the good sons and daughters of the Zheng family."

    "Siping," she turned to the resentful young man, and asked with a smile, "Are you convinced?"

    Siping is young, still has the childishness of a teenager, heard the words and said bitterly: "I am not convinced!"

    Xie Hualang let out a regretful "Oh" and said, "Then hold on!" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com)You finally see it.  People must first love themselves, and then others love others; people must first respect themselves, and then others respect others.  He humiliates himself and is no different from others.  "

    "Of course," Xie Hualang said, "this sentence is also bestowed on the good sons and daughters of the Zheng family."

    "Siping," she turned to the resentful young man, and asked with a smile, "Are you convinced?"

    Siping is young, still has the childishness of a teenager, heard the words and said bitterly: "I am not convinced!"
