I was Idle and Cool - Chapter 175

This is the first time that Lu Jinxi has heard the word “poor” to describe Wei Yi. If it wasn’t for the vague and faint pity on Sun Xuedai’s face, she might have wondered if she had heard it wrong.

But if you think about it carefully, it may not be impossible.

Although she doesn’t know Wei Yi, she can infer from those rumors that this is a person who is arrogant and arrogant. What if she becomes the favorite concubine in the palace?

She is not free to move, and she has to rob her husband from others.

For others, the palace may be a paradise, but for Wei Yi, it may be the opposite.

It’s just that she didn’t know what Sun Xuedai meant by “somewhat said”, and listening to the tone of Sun Xuedai’s conversation with her, although she felt that the two knew each other, they were not yet familiar with each other.

So after a little thought, Lu Jinxi didn’t ask.

Lu Jinxi didn’t know much about Sun Xuedai, but she had a mechanism to adapt, and the conversation with her did not reveal any flaws; for Lu Jinxi, Sun Xuedai may not have seen her for a long time, and she only attributed her changes to the struggle of life.

After all, time is the big winner.

It is not unusual for a person to undergo earth-shaking changes after fourteen or five years. What’s more, she has married Gu Juefei in the past three and a half years?

Those close to ink are black, those close to vermilion are red.

Under the influence of Gu Juefei, I wanted to know whether Lu Jinxi should get worse.

So from the beginning to the end, Sun Xuedai never doubted Lu Jinxi’s change.

Not long after returning to the capital for the first time, she obviously didn’t know many people in the capital, and she didn’t feel that she needed to know anyone, but she was impatient to deal with things around the stage and walked around at will.

Instead of dealing with those people, it is better to reminisce with Lu Jin.

The two of them were quite tacit, they didn’t talk about the things on the table, they just picked up some innocuous corners and chatted, mostly old things.

Talking about the three people back then, Gu Juefei back then…

Of course, it is inevitable to talk about the Wei family school back then, and I feel a little bit sorry for the current situation of the Wei family school.

“Thinking back to the Wei family, there was Taifu Wei in the previous dynasty, the first empress in the harem, and the seventh prince. Even if they were weaker and sicker, they were the direct descendants of the middle palace. That’s the glory and wealth that I want to see…”

As Sun Xuedai spoke, she looked at the silent palace maids on both sides.

“But fate makes people, these things in the world are changing rapidly. In a palace change, the seventh prince is gone, and the first queen is gone. There is a big Wei family, and only Taifu Wei is left to support her. Even if her Wei Yi is only eighth high Dou, who looks like a fairy, what is the use?”

What awaits her is nothing more than a way to enter the palace.

The last one was her aunt Wei Qiang, and the next one was her own.

The Wei family and the Gu family have always been Daxia, especially in the capital, the two scholarly families that are always mentioned at the same time, the hairpin Ying family.

One has the old lady Gu Chengqian and the other has the old lady Fu Weibinggan.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that these two are actually checks and balances of power, and no one will overwhelm the other too much.

But now…

The Grand Master’s Mansion already had a Gu Juefei inheriting the family business, and it even took only three and a half years to be promoted to the terrifying position of a scholar, the official worship of the first rank.

What about Weiss? Wei Shi has only one Wei Yi.

Of course Lu Jinxi could understand it, and she had heard of the palace change thirteen years ago, but she always had a very strange intuition.

Intuition for conspiracy.

Where in the world is there such a good thing?

At that time, Taifu Wei’s younger sister, Wei Chang, was the empress, and she had a frail and unnamed seventh prince. At the same time in the palace, there was a favored concubine Chen Shi, the fourth prince Xiao Qi, and a less favored concubine Ji Shi. He has three princes, the current emperor Xiao Che.

In the previous dynasty, the two Gu and Wei families competed against each other.

When the emperor was critically ill, he convened two auxiliary ministers to secretly appoint the seventh prince as the heir, but the rumor that somehow leaked was known to the fourth prince, Xiao Qi.

So the palace changed.

The fourth prince actually led troops to force the palace, first killing the seventh prince, and then forcing Empress Wei to take the throne.

But he was really unlucky.

At that time, the eldest princess Yongning had already married Xue Huan, the second son of the general’s mansion at that time, that is, Xue Kuang’s second uncle, and indirectly held military power.

As soon as the news came out, he quietly opened the palace gate and led the army camp into the palace.

There are troops outside, and there are ministers inside.

No matter how unwilling the fourth prince is, he can only capture it without hesitation.

With the seventh prince deceased, of course, only the third prince, Xiao Che, who is inconspicuous and has no one to rely on, is left to inherit the throne.

In the eyes of others, this situation is reasonable and dangerous, but in the eyes of a conspiracy theorist like Lu Jinxi, it is full of strange and ambiguous coincidences.

The emperor established the prince, and the two ministers were not vegetarians. How did the rumors leak?

The fourth prince, Xiao Qi, is favored again. Where can he draw soldiers to the palace and bring soldiers to force the palace?

Coincidentally, the two princes who were most suitable to inherit the throne both lost their thrones in this palace change. thorough……

Here, what role does Princess Yongning play?

What are the roles of Gu Wei’s two assistant ministers?

Thinking about it carefully, Lu Jinxi only felt that there was a chill in the bones.

It’s just that now she is holding the hand stove, chatting with Sun Xuedai in the pavilion by the lake, listening to the clear and smooth singing from the Bo Yue platform from a distance, but she doesn’t say a word of doubt.

Because Sun Xuedai didn’t mention a word.

Smart people are not always silent, but they are always silent when they should be silent.

“Snowing.”

Taking a slight step forward, Lu Jinxi glanced at the dark and gloomy night sky. When the wind blew, pieces of snowflakes fell from the sky.

Snow on New Year’s Eve.

The lights in the palace shine brightly, as white as jade.

Sun Xuedai followed her gaze and couldn’t help but smile.

Almost at the same time, there was a sound of exclamation from the palace concubine and noble ladies intertwined under the stage in the distance: “It’s snowing, and it’s really snowing. It’s a perfect occasion, it’s snowing in the sky…”

The palace was suddenly filled with laughter.

On such a good day, surrounded by palace lanterns and a good snowfall, who wouldn’t like it?

It’s just that Lu Jinxi and Sun Xuedai didn’t talk much anymore.

The two just stood under the pavilion and watched.

This New Year’s Eve palace banquet started when You entered the palace and lasted for two hours. At the beginning of Hai Shi, the news that the previous party had been scattered did not come to an end.

The queen drank a little too much tonight.

When the hour came, she didn’t even say too many polite words to the concubines and concubines in the palace, so she took the hand of the palace servant and went back to her palace.

The rest of the people also dispersed.

Under the wave platform, everyone is saying goodbye.

Lu Jinxi and Sun Xuedai met here, but they didn’t expect the queen to leave so early today without even saying hello.

It’s simply disrespectful.

“It’s not early, just as the banquet is over, let’s go back.”

After Sun Xuedai was slightly startled, she knew that the two of them were chatting here, and they didn’t say goodbye to the queen, which was somewhat rude, but it wasn’t their fault to blame, so she was still calm.

Lu Jinxi smiled lightly and had no objection: “It’s just right, I can still say goodbye to the concubine Xiangui.”

This was a joke.

Sun Xuedai heard the teasing about Wei Yi in her words, but she didn’t take it to heart, she just walked out of the pavilion with her, and wanted to say goodbye to everyone on the table.

Unexpectedly, when they were walking towards Bo platform, there was also someone walking towards them.

Almost as soon as they saw the figure of that person, Lu Jinxi and Sun Xuedai stopped in unison, and the corners of their eyes jumped slightly.

It’s Weiyi.

With that graceful figure, and the crowd of palace servants who were carefully surrounding her, you don’t need to think about it to know that there will be no second person besides her.

This is not the direction back to her own palace.

Lu Jinxi and Sun Xuedai were both smart people, and they knew that Wei Yi was actually looking for them. I just don’t know who it is.

As soon as people come over, they bring a faint scent of ambergris.

Lu Jinxi and Sun Xuedai bowed their heads and saluted: “The minister has seen the virtuous concubine, the concubine, and please give her condolences.”

“Why are you two so polite?”

Wei Yi’s voice was gorgeous, floating on the lakeside of the snowy lake on New Year’s Eve, but it was plainly stained with a dash of mocking coldness.

“Get up.”

The two stood up as they said.

Wei Yi’s eyes fell on them, first looking at Sun Xuedai for a long time.

It seems that she is looking at her judgment to see how she has changed in the past ten years, whether it is good or bad.

Then he smiled faintly and said, “It’s snowing in the middle of the night, so I won’t stay with Mrs. Tang Shilang any more. Ben Gong and Mrs. Gu have something to say, so they won’t be far away.”
