The Jinxiu Troupe will put on several new plays every year and festival, and the one they sang at the Jin Palace today was the newly compiled play "Blessings from Heavenly Officials".

Wearing a big red robe, the jubilant Tianguan sang: "The auspicious auspicious light and purple mist are rising, and the blessed Lord on earth celebrates his longevity. I am happy to see the sun rise in the world, and we can enjoy peace together."

The children didn't like watching this kind of babbling play, so the concubine ordered Princess Kangren to take them to play in the thermal pavilion.

The Heavenly Official read: "Now, by the order of the Jade Emperor, because the Blessed Lord of the lower realm is willing to do good and has great yin skills, I specially invite all the blessed gods to go to the lower realm to bestow blessings and fortunes to show the rewards of accumulated virtue and good deeds, and to protect everyone."

The gods responded: "Yes".

Tian Guan said: "I would like to invite all the Star Lords."

The gods said: "In response to the decree, I would like to invite all the star kings."

Dressed as a birthday boy, a cowherd, a weaver girl, a god of wealth and other actors, they took the stage to the beat of gongs and drums.

Jiang Changning didn't like to watch this play either, but she was a married woman and had to socialize with others. She smiled politely and commented on the actors on the stage with her cousins ​​from the Yan family, Gu Chen.

"That fairy's appearance is really beautiful, especially her gait, which is so graceful and graceful. She really has the charm of a fairy." Mrs. Yan Si said while chewing melon seeds.

"The one who plays the fairy is the newly promoted Xiaodan from the Jinxiu Troupe. Not only is his appearance beautiful, his singing is also very pleasant." Mrs. Yan raised two opera troupes to make money, and she was very familiar with the roles these troupes promoted.

"Cousin, I heard that Prince Wendebo is going to take that little Taohong from Ji Qingkun's class into the palace to be his concubine. Is it true?" Lady Yan asked.

"I'm afraid it was Mrs. Wen Debo who spread the news." Mrs. Gu Chen sneered, "It's really a snake's mouth and a wasp's tail. She ruined her stepson's reputation like this, and she's not afraid of her own mother crawling on her bedside in the middle of the night.

.”

Mrs. Yan curled her lips and said: "There are a few stepmothers who really love their first wife's legitimate son. Besides, if the prince is not destroyed, how can her own son succeed?"

"Mrs. Wen Debo married me and gave birth to a child within seven months. I'm afraid that if the first one is not dead, he will have done something dirty with someone else." Mrs. Gu Chen said with disdain.

"Hey, by the way, the Queen Mother proposed marriage to Prince Wendebo. Which girl did she choose?" Lady Yan asked.

Mrs. Gu Chen and Lady Yan's eyes fell on Jiang Changning. Jiang Changning smiled, "It's Zhuang Juyue from the Zhuang family's Xifu."

Mrs. Yan knew about the relationship between Jiang Changning and the banker, so she couldn't continue the topic. She turned her eyes to the stage and said, "The lyrics are quite well written."

"The fragrance of flowers welcomes the painting pavilion, and the green grass and green grass fill the courtyard. It is indeed a blessed place." the actors sang.

On the stage, all the actors walked through flowers and willows.

The birthday star sang: "The little god has nothing to give as a gift, so I present a scroll of a hundred-year life chart. May you live a long and prosperous life and raise more sea houses."

Who doesn't look forward to a long life? The concubine said happily: "Reward."

Mrs. Qiao had already prepared two large baskets of copper coins for the concubine to reward.

When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law heard this, they grabbed two handfuls of copper coins and threw them on the stage.

The music played during the cutscene, and all the actors saluted the concubine, "Thank you, concubine, for the reward."

A group of little actors quickly picked up the copper coins on the stage, and the opera continued to sing, "The fairy wishes you good luck and peace every year. May the rice grow double ears and the grain be plentiful."

After listening to the play for half an hour, at noon, Mrs. Qiao had arranged the banquet and came over to invite everyone to move in.

Across the distance, the two sisters looked at each other.

Mrs. Qiao's eyes were dark, and Jiang Changning's eyes were smiling.

The group of people went to the banquet hall, and when they passed Mrs. Qiao, Jiang Changning said, "Today is my mother's birthday. Sister-in-law, you'd better be peaceful."

Qiao was in charge of the concubine's birthday party. Logically speaking, she should be on guard against Jiang Changning sabotaging it.

However, Jiang Changning did not do this. Qiao, who was waiting for her to take action, simply arranged for people to sabotage it, hoping to put the blame on Jiang Changning.

Jiang Changning never thought that Mr. Qiao would do this, but if there were no jujubes, people would stare at Mr. Qiao.

Seeing that Qiao actually sent someone to replace the ingredients, he wanted to use the bad to pass off the good and the inferior to the good.

Jiang Changning's evaluation of her was that she didn't understand the general situation and had no overall perspective.

The banquet was hosted by Mr. Qiao. When the ingredients were changed, everyone would assume that the person who wanted Mr. Qiao to make a mistake was Jiang Changning.

Jiang Changning is the Princess of Jin, but the housekeeping power of the Jin Palace is not in her hands. If she caused Qiao Family to make mistakes, the concubine will definitely take away Qiao Family's housekeeping rights and let her take charge.

It was a good plan, but it was a pity that it didn't work.

At the banquet, both the host and the guest were happy.

At three o'clock in the morning, send off all the guests.

"Your Majesty, please send your mother and concubine back to the courtyard to rest. I have my concubine and sister-in-law here." Jiang Changning sent King Jin away.

"Don't be too tired." King Jin warned and helped the concubine to leave.

Jiang Changning turned around and looked at Mrs. Qiao, "Sister-in-law, you are so willing to spend a lot of money to harm me. Thank you so much for giving me the money."

To make people believe that the stolen goods are true, Jiang Changning's confidant must do it.

Mr. Qiao spent nearly a thousand taels of silver to bribe the people around Jiang Changning.

The four maids, Xiulan, Jinya, and Xiangdai, were so valued by Jiang Changning that they could not be bribed.

The other maids were not suitable either, so Mr. Qiao set his sights on Liu Ye.

Liu Ye was appointed by the palace, and it was very possible that Jiang Changning arranged for her to do this in order to show her loyalty.

After the incident failed, Liu Ye was able to escape unharmed because he was sent by the palace.

With this mentality, Mrs. Qiao deduced that if Jiang Changning wanted to do this, he would let Liu Ye do it, so she tried to bribe Liu Ye.

Liu Ye resisted at first, but money moved people's hearts.

One hundred taels, three hundred taels, five hundred taels, seven hundred taels, Liu Ye agreed.

"You knew from the beginning that you asked her to accept the money." Mrs. Qiao stared at Jiang Changning with fierce eyes.

"Sister-in-law, you're not that stupid." Jiang Changning said with a smile.

Ms. Qiao was so angry that her chest heaved up and down, "Ms. Jiang, you're very proud that you figured me out, right?"

"No." Jiang Changning shook his head. The middle card was still in Qiao's hands, so she had nothing to be proud of.

"Ms. Jiang, let's wait and see." Mrs. Qiao walked away with a puff of sleeves.

"We'll see, we'll see. If you make a move, I'll catch it. If I make a move, you have to catch it well and don't hit the instep." Jiang Changning said in a loud voice.

Mrs. Qiao stumbled and turned around to glare at Jiang Changning.

Jiang Changning smiled and glanced at the servants who looked like they were cleaning up, but were actually eavesdropping on her conversation with Mrs. Qiao, "Work hard and don't be cunning."

He took Xiulan and others and swayed away.

Jiang Changning was fighting overtly and covertly with the Qiao family in the mansion, and there was also an undercurrent surging in the court.

On the morning of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Mr. Tan, the Second Assistant to the Cabinet, came out and said: "Since Your Majesty's Imperial Majesty, the world has become peaceful and peaceful. As the saying goes, in the peaceful and prosperous times, books and biographies should be compiled. I sincerely request your Majesty to compile a book "Wenyuan Yu" at your request.

"View" to pass on to future generations."

The reason why the emperor was so happy about his achievements had a lot to do with the praise from his courtiers.
