MTL - Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress-Chapter 680 [Fan] No colorful phoenix with double flying wings (22)

After Li Ling ascended the throne, the position of the crown prince of the Duke's family naturally fell on Li Xiang, and his wife Xu became the head mistress of the Duke's family.

 The status of the two people has improved, which naturally attracts more attention.

So much so that later on, the ladies in the capital began to vaguely spread rumors that the two were not in good terms with each other. Xu came from a high family and was also a very high-spirited person. Xu was doing this for the sake of face and to break these rumors, and the three of them were married. As a daughter, she also became pregnant not long after Li Xiang's aunt Jiao Xing became pregnant.

Perhaps Mrs. Xu was holding her breath. Since she became pregnant, not only did she not pay attention to rest, but she became more active in socializing with ladies.

After Li Ling defeated Gaoshan, he held a grand celebration banquet in the palace, and rewarded Zhou Jin, Pei Yunqian, Hu Dahai and other heroes at the banquet.

In the last life, Pei Yunqian defeated the Gaoshan Kingdom in Li Ling. Later, when he was governing Yuzhou, he was granted the title of Marquis for his meritorious service. In this life, because of Pingyang's company, he progressed even more rapidly. Before Li Ling destroyed the Gaoshan Kingdom, he was already a first-class general. Therefore, after assisting Li Ling in destroying the Gaoshan Kingdom, he was directly granted the title of Marquis and was hereditary. for.

Pingyang will naturally attend Cousin Pei’s celebration banquet.

 After the banquet, cousin Pei took Pingyang's hand and walked out of the palace. After leaving Xuandemen, the two happened to encounter Li Xiang and his wife arguing in front of the carriage.

Although Xu's voice was suppressed, maybe she was too angry, and the voices blaming Li Xiang still reached Pingyang's ears clearly.

 I only heard Mrs. Xu reproaching: "I don't care if you secretly dote on that delicate apricot. It's just that in public, you have to give me enough face."

Li Xiang retorted: "I will leave it to you to handle the affairs of the back house. Every time you ask me to accompany you to socialize, I will accompany you to the end. Now that you are the prince's wife, I don't understand. What else do you have?" Unsatisfied.”

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she couldn't help but raise her voice and said angrily: "At today's banquet, you ignored me. Does this count as giving me face? You don't know how those noble ladies laughed at me behind my back. I have always been strong, but now I have become a joke for others to talk about after dinner. Have you ever considered my mood?"

"That's all!" Before Xu could finish his words, Li Xiang interrupted impatiently: "Aren't you just dissatisfied with Jiao Xing's pregnancy? I don't understand. I'm not as concubine as other men. Chengqun, I only want a concubine like Jiao Xing, and she has always behaved herself, why are you so intolerant?"

"If she really behaves, can she get pregnant behind my back?" Mentioning this finally touched Xu's pain, and she yelled loudly regardless of her dignity, with a choked tone in her voice: "Since you Why do you care about that concubine so much that you want to marry me? For her, you have spent so many years trying to hide it and treat me like a fool. Li Xiang, are you still a human being?"

The palace banquet was over, and there were many people coming and going. Xu's making such a fuss could not help but attract the attention of many people coming and going.

When Li Xiang saw this, he angrily lectured Xu: "If you want to act up, go home and do it. I can't afford to lose this person to you."

After saying that, he left Mrs. Xu and walked away.

Li Xiang walked forward angrily. After passing by Pei Yunqian and Ping Yang, she came back to her senses. Li Xiang recognized the two of them and turned back. He calmed down the anger on his face, first He slightly cupped his fists at Pei Yunqian and said politely: "Brother Pei has made another great contribution and is now a marquis. Congratulations."

Pei Yunqian is not a petty person, but he has always been resentful about the fact that Li Xiang ignored Pingyang's wishes and asked for a marriage without permission. Therefore, although Li Xianggui was the emperor's favorite brother, Pei Yunqian never treated him favorably. meet him.

In addition, the quarrel between the genius Li Xiang and his wife also reached the ears of Pei Yunqian. Pei Yunqian was an upright gentleman and was very disdainful of Li Xiang's behavior of pampering his concubine and destroying his wife.

 So, Pei Yunqian just responded lightly to Li Xiang's warm greetings. Although Li Xiang couldn't understand clearly, he was a well-educated person. Faced with Pei Yunqian's naked neglect, he showed no annoyance at all. Instead, he smiled politely and then greeted Pingyang: "Cousin Pingyang, it's been a long time." You’re gone. Why haven’t you been seen coming to the house since we got married?”

It’s not that Pingyang doesn’t go to the palace, it’s that she only chooses to go there when Li Xiang is not around.

In all, since the two met at the gate of the city, Pingyang had never met him in person or spoken to him in all these years.

Before Pingyang could respond, Cousin Pei took a step forward, blocked Pingyang tightly behind him, and replied to Li Xiang: "Today's palace banquet has been too long, and my wife is tired. Let's go ahead. Your Majesty, please go slowly." .”

 After saying that, he turned around and carried Pingyang into the carriage, and then closed the door tightly.

After the carriage had driven a long way, Pingyang opened the window and Cousin Pei rode to protect her.

He is just thirty this year, which is when a man is at his best. Today, because he is going to the palace for a banquet, cousin Pei is wearing a red red first-class ducal python robe. The tiger pattern embroidered on the chest is lifelike, which makes the upright man stand out. Even more heroic.

Seeing Pingyang sticking his head out, General Pei, who had a cold face, immediately turned his head. The moment he saw Pingyang, his eyes could not help but be filled with tenderness, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

“It’s cold at night, why open the window?”

He was angry at his wife like this, but he was reluctant to close the car window immediately. He only raised his hand and patted his wife's head lovingly like he would a child.

Pingyang was lying on the car window. She looked up at Cousin Pei and replied with crooked eyebrows: "I'm not cold, I just want to see you."

When Cousin Pei heard this, the smile on his face grew stronger. Then he turned over and got off the horse, and neatly threw the reins to the accompanying boy. Without waiting for the carriage to stop, he took a step with his long legs and pulled Opening the door, he easily got into the carriage.

Pei Yunqian sat down next to Pingyang, then stretched out his arms to hold his wife in his arms, and said dotingly: "Are you tired, please lean against me and relax for a while."

 Cousin Pei's arms are warm and solid. Lying in his arms makes people feel indescribably at ease.

Pingyang raised his eyes and glanced at Cousin Pei, and replied with a smile: "I'm not tired. Today is your celebration banquet. I see you in such good condition, and I'm really happy for you."

After hearing what Pingyang said, Pei Yunqian laughed, touched Pingyang's head tenderly, and replied: "My little Pingyang has really grown up, and now he talks like an adult."

"Don't treat me like a child all the time." Although Pingyang was sweet in his heart, he said angrily: "I'm telling you serious things."

Pei Yunqian hugged his wife and said with a happy and satisfied look on his face: "Although these achievements are external things, a man is walking in the world. If he can't earn a lot for his wife and children, he is not a man." He stared at his wife in his arms: "I had nothing at the beginning, and you silly princess actually wanted to marry me like that. How could I not work hard to make progress? I will definitely not let the world see your joke."
