Chapter 989: Think Beautifully
After the beginning of spring, in mid-February, Li Qianqian was finally engaged.
As soon as the news came out, many people's jaws were shocked!
How is this possible? How could it be? Why was there no news beforehand? Feng Gongzi had just appointed the Li Sect Master of the Rui Yao Sect? Is it really fake? If it is true, how can the news not be revealed?
If it is false, is it necessary for Fengjiazhuang and Ruiyao Sect to put such fake news?
Because the engagement was held in Xiangcheng, Mrs. Fengzhuang held her stomach to insert hairpins for her good sister and future concubine, can this matter still be fake?
Afterwards, everyone understood.
Sect Master Li has Tianbaofang and Jinyifang under his name, and the craftsmen in the people's workshop work day and night for the dowry of their own sect master, and no one outside can see it! Besides, there are many talented and skillful craftsmen in Tianbaofang and Jinyifang! Even if the daily orders are shipped as usual, it will not affect the dowry of their sect master.
Before I thought of it, what uncle Feng Gongzi's uncle had already divided into sects, came to the door to make trouble about marrying his daughter to him, and he had a gracious face, which really makes people feel funny when they think about it!
Shang Jianjun and Shang Zhigao, who learned about this, had different reactions, but they both felt that their faces were swollen!
Shang Zhigao thought, this marriage must have been decided a long time ago, otherwise he hadn't seen how close the two sides had been in contact these days, why did he suddenly get good news, and it was still not engagement, but directly engaged.
It can be seen that the two sides have been prepared for a long time, maybe when they came to Xiangcheng, the two sides were already preparing to get engaged.
Thinking of that time, although the two of them couldn't see Feng Gongzi and the others, they didn't give up talking to the outside world, thinking that they praised their daughter to the sky at that time, Shang Zhigao blushed.
Mrs. Shang pulled him and asked, "You wanted to start a new stove at the beginning, did you already know that that stinky boy and the slut of Rui Yao Sect have a leg?" Although her daughter has another destination, Mrs. Shang is angry when she thinks of the treatment she received in Fengjiazhuang.
You know, our house is given by Feng Gongzi, if he knows, if you open your mouth and close your mouth, you will scold him for being a stinky boy and a slut for his fiancΓ©e, do you think he will take this house back in anger?"
Mrs. Shang didn't know that this mansion was such a source, so she immediately covered her mouth with her hands and looked around with wide eyes, wondering where Feng Gongzi's people were hiding and staring at them.
"Why didn't you say it earlier!" Mrs. Shang complained, "If you tell me earlier, I won't dare to scold people like this!" Shang Yingying is now married, I heard that the county lord of Baoru will be on the table soon, and please be named the prince of Nan for her son Yuan Sishao, if this thing is done, her daughter will become the princess, and in the near future, she will become the princess of Nan, ah, even if she is demoted, she will be a princess of the county!
No matter how you look at it, it is better than marrying Feng Gongzi.
It doesn't matter, when her daughter becomes the princess of the county, no, let's still be the princess! Anyway, no matter which one it is, it will be better than Feng Gongzi, and when the time comes, after stepping on Feng Gongzi and asking him to hand over the deed, how she wants to scold the two of them in her own home, Feng Gongzi will not dare to do anything to her!
Thinking of the smugness, Mrs. Shang couldn't help but smile.
After Shang Zhigao glanced at his wife, he shook his head and went out, this stupid woman didn't bother to pay attention to her!
After Shang Jianjun learned the news, he was blindsided for a long time before he came back to his senses, it turned out that the Feng family had long been a good partner for Feng Gongzi! But he looked at himself in front of him, like singing a big play, and told him a lot of nonsense? Is this despising himself?
If Feng Gongzi knew that Shang Jianjun thought so, he would definitely tell him, you think too much!
For their brothers, whether it is Shang Jianjun or Shang Zhigao, they are just strangers with the surname Shang, that is, the elder brother of his mother's mother, and their own uncle has never interfered in their life's affairs so much, well! The eldest uncle once intended to do so, but was later persuaded to retire.
But what are the two of them? The merchant who has been separated from the sect wants to interfere in the marriage of the son of the merchant's descendant? When this kind of thing is said, people will not say that their brothers are unfilial and disrespectful to their elders, but will only say that the two merchants are self-righteous.
First of all, their ancestors were favored by the ancestors of the merchants, who adopted them and gave them surnames, gave them reading and learning characters, and gave them money so that they could stand on their own.
But why these side branches were finally divided into branches of the grandson, outsiders don't know, don't they know?
That's too long, isn't it?
Shang Jianjun quickly thought about how to get back to the field, but no matter how he thought about it, it seemed that he couldn't show it a little, he brought a lot of people over, but these people were used to deal with Shang Zhigao, and they were only scattered not long ago, and before they saw the results, they had to withdraw people to send another errand, so wouldn't it be in vain to do the previous work?
He comforted himself and said that as long as that muddy boy sent him a post and invited him to his engagement party, then he would be generous and not bother with him.
Just thinking so, the attendant next to him came in with a wedding card sprinkled with red and gold. "Master, master, Fengjiazhuang's wedding card. β
"Bring it here, I'll see. β
Unfolded it and took a look, sure enough, it was the engagement banquet between Feng Gongzi and Li Qianqian, Shang Jianjun didn't know that the corners of his mouth were raised high, and the people waiting around him saw it, and they lowered their heads one after another, not daring to let the master see them and laugh.
As for other chivalrous women or families who had been interested in Feng Gongzi, after knowing the news, even if they were half dead in their hearts, they were full of smiles on their faces, saying that they would definitely go to participate in the grand event that day.
Li Qianqian didn't care about these people's reactions, she just stared at Liu Er every day, "Is there a letter from the capital?"
"Not yet. Liu Er replied with a bitter face, God knows what's wrong with the sect leader? Obviously he only asked half an hour ago, why did he ask again?
Li Qianqian also knew that she was asking too often, but she couldn't control herself!
Once again, I feel a deep regret for the underdevelopment of communication in this world, if this was in her previous life, a phone call would have been solved, but here, from the capital to Xiangcheng, even if you are fast, you have to run for half a month, think about how long it took to escort Lantang from the capital to Xiangcheng, oh, yes, they still lived in the village outside Yuecheng for a long time!
Alas!
Li Qianqian waved his hand like a water-deficient flower, signaling Liu Er to go on his own, Liu Er sighed and said, "Sect Master, don't worry, the generals know that you are engaged, even if they can't come in person, they will send someone to watch the ceremony." β
Li Qianqian nodded, she can say, dad can't come, it doesn't matter, the second brother doesn't matter if he doesn't come, the eldest brother doesn't come, she will be very sorry, as for the third brother? Well, it's better if he doesn't come!
It's a pity that she can't say it, alas! The consequence of sighing again is to be glared at by Mother Ye.
Mother Ye said that she couldn't sigh all the time, she would be sighed by blessings.
But she can't help it!
Especially now that she is about to get engaged, she is not allowed to touch the big and small things at home, and it is really boring to let her sit idle all day!
I can't read it, I draw a pattern, it's a bad drawing, I settle the account, uh-huh, it's only after the New Year, and I only checked the accounts a few years ago, so where can I get so many account books for her to see.
Chunjiang saw that she was really idle, so she had to go to Li Shu, who was fine, opened the warehouse, and asked Chunjiang to come back with a stack of books.
Li Qianqian thought it was some kind of miscellaneous book that made her feel bored! Who knew that it was not, it was not a martial arts secret book, or a book related to the treasure map, and Sima Zhao's heart was well known! My cousin wanted her to read more martial arts cheats and learn more exercises, so that she could create her own exercises, and then he wanted her to help crack the treasure map.
It's just that the location of the treasure map has not been checked, and where did these books come from?
Chunjiang looked at her with doubts on her face, and answered for her with a smile, "These are the ones that Feng Gongzi moved in to honor the Great Sect Master before. β
The Great Sect Master didn't have time to read it, so he threw it all in the storeroom, and only now did he have a chance to let some books see the light of day.
Li Qianqian picked up a book and flipped through it, all the stories recorded in it were stories of the early days of the Tiansheng Empire, the reason why it was a story was because the writing was extremely exaggerated, not to mention history, even wild history was not so exaggerated, so Li Qianqian felt that this was all just a story and could not be taken seriously.
"Sect Master, take a look, are you interested, if not, there is still in the Great Sect Master's treasury, let's move it again?"
"Don't, I'll read this first. Li Qianqian looked at the stack of books and felt a little headache, why did she think that her cousin was cheating on her?
When she finally quieted down and read a book, the next day, someone from the capital came.
The three brothers who came were Li Shaoxi.
Li Jingshi didn't come, and Blue Ocean didn't come either, and the two of them accompanied the emperor to the royal palace to play.
Although it was to play, Li Mingxi said that what could I do when I went to the Royal Palace on a cold day? Ice frolic? Don't think about hunting, I still hibernated! What kind of prey do I want to hunt?
"The emperor brought a few concubines who are good at ice frolic to accompany them this time, those little concubines are not very old and the most coquettish age, Mr. Lan strictly warned the emperor for this, pay attention to the ...... room" Li Mingxi was knocked on the head by the eldest brother halfway through his words.
"Got everything you need for the engagement?"
"It's ready, right?" Li Qianqian smiled bitterly, "They don't let me take care of things, so I don't know if it's ready, but with Mother Ye watching, it should be fine." β
Li Lingxi leaned up and bit her sister's ear, "The queen mother gave you two grandmothers, and the queen and concubine also gave people, of course, there are a lot of good things, and there are no fewer people." β
can have this good opportunity to put people into a famous martial arts family like Fengjiazhuang, how can those ladies in the palace let it go.
It's just that they have to see if the emperor is happy to see if they do this.
Li Jingshi was an important minister he had cultivated with great difficulty, and he had no friendship with the nobles and families in the court, because he was not happy that he was being co-opted by these people, so he never urged his father and son to get married quickly, and never stuffed women into his house, so he didn't want to set this precedent.
Because once the emperor makes this example, those ladies in the palace can follow the example and stuff people to the father and son during the Li Jing, so that they can put eyes and ears around them, and second, they can also win over their father and son.
In order to ensure that their position was biased towards himself, the emperor reluctantly gave up such a good way to win people's hearts.
Unexpectedly, Li Qianqian became their breakthrough, and the emperor was not in a good mood for this, so he could only go out of the palace out of sight.
But he didn't know that his departure made the ladies in the palace have no fear, and they rushed to give Li Qianqian people.
The queen mother and the concubine still know how to measure, and they give it to the old mother, who is proficient in palace rules and women's childbirth.
As for the queen and concubines and other concubines, they are all palace maids who are young and beautiful, smart and clever will come to things, and they are good to say, they are here to wait for Li Qianqian, in fact, they are coming for whom, and people with long eyes can understand it at a glance.
"It's fine. Li Shaoxi comforted his sister, "Give people in the palace, don't dare to go out of the way." "No one dares to do the thing of deducting the personal deed, and they don't want to be sued by the Li family's father and son to the emperor.
Oh, I gave someone to the daughter of the important minister to marry, but the deed was held in my hand, and the master of these people who was given to him was the daughter of the important minister? Or these ladies in the palace?
Since the lady in the palace gave the palace maid to someone and held the palace maid's identity deed, what did she want to do? Who can say that she has no selfish intentions, and that deducting the palace maid's identity deed is a favor for the daughter of an important minister? Is being a fool to be a fool?
Then just keep the deed in hand, and everything will be easy to do.
It is always difficult for the ladies in the palace to call Li Qianqian into the palace and ask her how to deal with these people.
Therefore, when Li Shaoxi received the will of the gift, he did not refuse, and after seeing the deed, he followed all, even if these people obeyed the orders of the old master and came to the Li family and the Feng family to make trouble, they had to see if their weight could withstand the storm.
Li Qianqian listened to the eldest brother's words and relaxed slightly.
Mother Ye frowned and came in to report, saying that it was the girl and grandmother who came with the uncles, and she wanted to come to Li Qianqian to say goodbye.
"What girls, they are all palace maids, they are all maids who wait for people, but they come from the palace, and now! they are all subordinates of Loei, and my mother doesn't have to look down on them. Li Lingxi reminded angrily.
Mother Ye said, "The ceremony cannot be abolished, and they haven't seen the sect leader yet, and they are still the people in the palace now." β
They have to meet their new masters before they can change their identities.
Li Shaoxi nodded, "Let them in!"
Mother Ye motioned to the little maid beside her, and the little maid went out to lead people in.
The first to enter the house were a dozen young and beautiful palace maids, and they were all smiling, looking shy, but in fact, their eyes were shining with ambition.
After them, there are six grandmothers who are a little old, saying that they are grandmothers, but they are actually not too old, at most they are in their early thirties, and they are still in their prime of life.
"They were given by the Queen Mother and the Concubine?" Li Qianqian asked curiously.
Li Shaoxi replied, "No, these are given by the concubines in the palace. The queen mother and the concubine are behind. β
Li Qianqian didn't understand, "Why is it not the grandmother given by the queen mother in front?"
His Holiness comes first, doesn't he?
Li Shaoxi whispered to his sister, "It's true that the reasoning is so, but the queen mother is old, and when she is in the palace, the queen will still make a show of honoring her old man, but isn't it out of the palace now?"
So the palace maids given by the queen are not even lazy to behave? This is inevitably too much, but it can be seen from this that the queen mother really has no majesty, and even the palace maids don't want to give her face? Even the concubines should give the queen mother and the concubines a look at their faces, and enter the door before the people they give.
Li Qianqian looked at the palace maids in the front row, his face sank and he let them out, until those beautiful girls broke out in a cold sweat, couldn't stand, and finally fell to the ground one after another.
"Mother Ye. β
"In. β
"These people will be handed over to you! Although they are from the palace, our family is different from the palace, and before the rules are learned, don't let them be embarrassed in front of me, and they will not lose the face of their old master. β
Mother Ye promised to be blessed.
A few old ladies who were over sixty years old standing under the corridor looked quite relieved, these palace maids were quite honest when they saw them in the palace, and they didn't want to change their faces as soon as they left the palace, thinking that they could really rely on their masters and their youth and beauty to fly on the branches as phoenixes?
Will Li Hou Ye let them step on his daughter's throne? Will Uncle Li's brother agree that they are above their sister? Will Li Da Sect Master let these nameless juniors press on his apprentices?
I thought that Sect Master Li was protected like this, and she should be a weak person, but I didn't expect her to have an idea.
It's so easy to suppress these people!
They were under the porch, and they only heard Li Qianqian's words, and they couldn't feel the coercion she exuded, so they didn't hear those guys who liked to talk back, and they felt quite surprised.
