Chapter Ninety-Nine: Something Happened
Wang Yan's illness has not been cured, but the West Factory is still as stable as Mount Tai, and it must be fine. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
As for the West Factory, even Fu Mingxian and other women in the back house can hear from Fu Jiahuan's mouth from time to time, I am afraid that they are really going to be defeated like a mountain and have no strength to return to the sky.
The fall of Cao Jixiang is nothing more than the final situation and evidence.
Fu Mingxian's most surprising thing was Lu Lijiu, his performance was really ...... It was too shocking, and it jumped from the unknown editor of the Hanlin Academy to the hot upstart in Beijing.
Means and abilities are indispensable, how could such an unbearable person fall into his calculations back then? Fu Mingxian's heart suddenly had a terrible thought.
Maybe it was back then...... There really is something else going on.
She has always felt guilty about Zhao Wanrong.
She knew that it was very wrong for her to design Zhao Wanrong to marry someone else, but she was really dizzy at the time, and under the persuasion of her fourth cousin Zhao Wanyao, she still wanted to try it knowing that it was wrong.
If it is said that she died of grief in the later period, partly because of the Zhao Guogong Mansion, partly because of the disappointment in the Fu Guogong Mansion, and partly because of Zhao Wanrong.
So far, Fu Mingxian would rather her uneasiness be superfluous, living with guilt and self-blame is too bitter, and it would be good for her to bear such pain alone.
Lu Lijiu was busy mediating the government, although Fu Mingyuan only came to ask for advice every once in a while, when he came back, he would always do something about Lu Lijiu in front of her, Fu Mingxian just didn't doubt it, and she was even more uneasy in her heart.
Fortunately, Shen Yu can always make her feel a lot more comfortable, every time she thinks of her family, Fu Mingxian feels that her impetuous heart is also stable, and she is even more afraid in her heart, and she doesn't know what she is afraid of.
It's more like hoping to escape something through marriage.
Shen Yu had a very good impression of Fu Mingxian, and when he returned to the house, he had already said that his parents wanted to marry Fu Mingxian, and he even sent some small gifts from time to time.
Although Fu Mingxian's father has a low official position, he is considered to be a scholarly family, Fu Mingxian's family background is innocent, and the second elder of the Shen family has no objections.
coincided with the wedding banquet of Fu Mingqiao in the Fu Guogong Mansion to invite relatives and friends, and Mrs. Shen made an appointment with Fu Mingxian on the same day, and Fu Mingxian expressed her understanding.
There was a storm in the court, and it was early spring in February.
After a few heavy snowfalls, the snow and ice in the shade have not yet melted, and the winter chill is still there, but the willow trees have already pulled out their green branches, adding a bit of novelty to the earth.
On the seventh day of the second lunar month, the day before Fu Mingqiao's marriage, Fu Mingxian unexpectedly received her invitation.
Fu Mingqiao has no friends around her, she hopes to be accompanied by Fu Mingxian and Fu Mingmei until she gets married, and her words are a little urgent, as if she has something to say to herself personally.
Fu Mingxian originally avoided the Fu Guogong Mansion, but after thinking about it, she didn't want to delay the big event, she also wanted to see Fu Mingmei and Fu Zhou, so she discussed it with He Zhixiu, and left for the Fu Guogong Mansion before nightfall, Fu Mingqiao was really waiting for herself anxiously.
In order to win over the Fuyuan Marquis Mansion, Fu Yu restored the preferential treatment that Fu Mingqiao should have for the second concubine, and the first should be enshrined is the best in the Fu Guogong Mansion, and it is much more free and casual.
Lu Qiao had already listened to Fu Mingqiao's instructions and waited for Fu Mingxian's arrival outside the gate, "Miss Fu, Fourth Miss said, after you come, go directly to her Linxue Xuan." ”
Fu Erye marrying a daughter, Fuyuan Hou Shizi marrying a flat wife is a big deal, Fu Guogong's mansion has already arranged the red lantern at this moment, no matter how reluctant the big house is, he doesn't dare to show it openly, just an excuse to send Fu Mingchan to Zhuangzi to pick it up, can't stop it, at least add to Fu Mingqiao.
Fu Mingxian was very familiar with Fu Guogong's Mansion, and followed Lu Qiao all the way directly to her residence, looking at Fu Mingqiao, I don't know if it was set off by the joy in this room, her face was ruddy, and her complexion was much better.
"The fourth sister is overjoyed, Mingxian has nothing to do, this concentric knot is made up by me personally, and it is a congratulatory gift from me. Fu Mingxian stepped forward with a light smile and personally delivered the congratulatory gift to her, "I hope that the fourth sister can be married forever with the son, and I hope the fourth sister will not dislike it." ”
In all fairness, I still think that Fu Mingqiao should be more compatible with Meng Jiahong.
Fu Mingqiao took it from Fu Mingxian's hand very happily, "Sister Heng Hui Lanxin, this is the best gift I have received when I get married." ”
"But ......"
Midori said goodbye and went down, closing the door again as he left.
Even if Fu Mingxian understood, it seemed that what she was thinking was really good, Fu Mingqiao really had something.
Fu Mingqiao pulled Fu Mingxian into the inner room with a panicked expression, and said thoughtfully, "The situation is urgent, and the letter transmission is afraid that it will fall into the hands of others, and Lu Qiao is the maid next to me and it is too conspicuous, so I have to let you come in person." ”
Fu Mingxian sighed in her heart, "What's wrong?"
"Something happened. Fu Mingqiao lowered his voice and said, "Something happened to the Fu Guo Mansion. ”
"Something happened to Fu Guogong's Mansion?"
Fu Mingxian's expression was complicated, she had long known that Fu Guogong's mansion was too deep and had many problems, but she didn't expect it to be so fast, and even a lady like Fu Mingqiao could smell the abnormality, thinking that this time the crisis would not be small.
Fu Mingqiao looked at Fu Mingxian worriedly, "The eldest uncle is already working on sending Sister Ru to the Wang Governor's Mansion, and the fourth aunt has been making trouble for a long time to no avail." ”
"If so...... It's fine if the Governor of the West Factory agrees, but if he doesn't...... Mingxian, I'm afraid that after my father did whatever he could, the first person who thought of you would be you!"
"It's just the work of the past few days!"
The more urgent the situation in Fu Guogong's mansion, the more Wang Yan will be regarded as a lifesaver by Uncle Fu and Second Master Fu, and they will desperately grasp the survival chain, they know very well that there is no friendship with Wang Yan, and only interests are left to let Wang Yan help.
Although Wang Yan's condition has not improved, the ministers of the court are not old foxes who have been crawling for many years, and the battle between the West Factory and the East Factory has always been Wang Yan's upper hand.
Now Cao Jixiang is still supporting, waiting for Cao Jixiang to fall, and it will be their turn!
Existential matters.
These people in the Fu Guogong Mansion are used to living a pampered life, and they have an inexplicable desire for power.
Moreover, the mistakes made by Fu Qi and Fu Yu may not only be unable to keep their wealth and wealth, but even their heads will be lost.
Fu Mingqiao said worriedly, "If you have an idea, I'm afraid you have to prepare as soon as possible." ”
"Sister Ru'er's matter is not a secret in the house, so I deliberately instructed Lu Qiao to inquire about a lot of things. ”
"Since Yang Hua and his son entered Beijing a few years ago, Lu ...... Everyone has heard of Lord Lu's methods, and Yang Hua spit out a lot of things, which were widely implicated for a while, and many officials were imprisoned, as if they were ......"
"The most serious of them is the case of the Zhao Guogong Mansion that year, which seems to be ...... It seems to be the Fu Guo Mansion...... He also participated. ”
The candlelight flickered, and Fu Mingqiao's pale yellow light looked directly at Fu Mingxian's face, and she felt that Fu Mingxian was the opportunity she had been waiting for for so many years from the first time she saw Fu Mingxian.
She originally wanted to marry Wang Yan and use Wang Yan's power to take revenge on Wan, but she never thought that Fu Yu had become estranged from Wan, and she also wanted to marry Meng Jiahong.
No matter how you look at Fu Mingqiao, she should be grateful to Fu Mingxian, and she is indeed the same, otherwise she would not have had much trouble to inform Fu Mingxian.
She has always had a vague concept of Fu Mingxian, obviously this face also misses the third child, but her personality is ...... But it's a little different, and Fu Mingqiao can't tell where Fu Mingxian came from.
Fu Mingxian's brows were tightened, and her eyes were full of disbelief, Lu Lijiu was actually investigating the matter of the Zhao State Mansion, and it was also related to the Fu State Mansion.
Fu Mingxian always thought that Fu Yu was just falling into the well, but now ......
"But don't worry, it's not that there is no opportunity, just waiting for the news from the Governor's Mansion, there is always Sister Ru'er's ......" Fu Mingqiao looked at Fu Mingxian's pale face, thinking that she was worried that Fu Yu would force her to marry Wang Yan.
Fu Mingqiao sighed, "Everyone is the happiest woman in the big family, who really knows the sadness in this, the so-called happiness is just those who are favored, and there are like us who are out of luck, and they are not as happy as those ordinary people." ”
"It's not you, it's Sister Ru, poor Sister Ru, it's a year younger than you......" Fu Mingqiao is just an outsider, and he feels unbearable, regardless of Wang Yan's power and temperament, but a little eunuch, Sister Ru'er's future happiness is completely ruined.
"Thank you Fourth Sister for reminding me, Mingxian knows!" Fu Mingxian nodded to Fu Mingqiao, "Since I'm here, I want to go and say hello to the old lady first." ”
The words fell, without waiting for Fu Mingqiao to answer, Fu Mingxian had already turned around and went to Qingtong Courtyard, she always felt that Fu Zhou's seemed to have something unspeakable to say to herself, and at this moment, this bad premonition in her heart was getting stronger and stronger.
She is not at ease, and some words must be asked clearly in person.
Fu ...... Miss Fu?" Mama Xu was wearing a tea-blue coat, and she was under the corridor with the incense ash in the red gold rui beast incense burner, and she was really startled when she saw Fu Mingxian who suddenly appeared, "Miss, why are you here at this time?"
Fu Mingxian said perfunctorily, "The fourth sister got married, and I was invited to come in advance, did the old lady go to bed?"
"I want to meet her?"
"The old lady hasn't fallen asleep yet, I would be happy if I knew you were here......" Before Mama Xu's words were finished, Fu Mingxian had already rushed in.
"Hey......" Mama Xu wondered, what happened to Miss Fu, who was dignified and steady?
Looking at it this way, it has come to the temperament of some of the third lady back then......
"Old lady......" Fu Mingxian saw that Fu Zhou was leaning against the red lacquered wooden table and squinting his eyes and napping, and suddenly stopped his voice.
She took a deep breath, stepped forward slowly, went to the carved Arhat bed, took a velvet blanket and covered Fu Zhou's body.
Fu Zhou opened his eyes a little confused, "Mingxian?"
Fu Mingxian nodded, "Well, the fourth sister got married, and invited me to come to the mansion to accompany her for one night in advance, so I thought about coming to see you." ”
Fu Zhoushi smiled, "Look at me, I'm really old and useless, even if I'm waiting for Mama Xu to pour incense ashes, I can fall asleep." ”
Fu Mingxian felt a pain in her heart, "It's late at night, you should rest early, tomorrow is a good day for the fourth sister, you always have to be there." ”
Fu Mingxian talked with Fu Zhoushi for a while, and left a little decadently after serving Fu Zhoushi to sleep.
She stood in Qingtong Courtyard a little dazed, since Fu Zhou's chose to hide it from each other, I'm afraid she won't say it now if she asks, looking at her old appearance, Fu Mingxian's willow eyebrows are furrowed, even if she doesn't ask Fu Zhou's, she will definitely be clear.
Like what...... Lu Lijiu must know something!
……
Lu Lijiu stood in front of Zhao Wanrong's door, frowned and asked Laneige lightly, "Madame is asleep again?"
He had just taken over Xu Youzhen's position during this time and took control of the military department, and there were many things, and he hadn't come to see Zhao Wanrong for some days.
The few times she wanted to come to Zhao Wanrong's room to visit her, she was turned away by Laneige, and this time was no exception.
Lu Lijiu had doubts in his heart, in fact, the matter of feelings is really invisible, untouchable and uncontrollable.
Zhao Wanrong has been married to him for many years, he knows her thoughts, and he also feels very guilty about her, in addition to the love that can't be given, he gave her the best care, even if Zhao Wanrong is sick, he has never refused him to see.
Lu Lijiu's eyes were slightly worried, "Madame's condition is serious?"
Lanzhi shook his head and gave Lu Lijiu a long time according to Zhao Wanrong's words, "Madame is still the same, but it may still be cold in early spring, so she is resting, sir, don't worry, Mrs. Yao is eating on time, there is no big problem." ”
Lu Lijiu's eyebrows tightened, "Then you can talk to her when Madame wakes up." ”
"There are still some things waiting for me to deal with in the military department, I won't go back to the house tonight, tomorrow is the wedding of the fourth lady of the Fu Guogong Mansion, and then I will come back, so that she doesn't have to wait for me." ”
Laneige's eyes were slightly red, "The slave knows." ”
"Sir, don't you worry?"
Zhao Wanrong slowly opened his eyes and listened to Lu Lijiu's words.
Fu Guogong's Mansion?
The corners of Zhao Wanrong's eyes were a little moist, and tears flowed out of her eyes even more unconsciously, "I should have thought of it a long time ago, why am I still holding hope." ”
When Lu Lijiu married her, it happened to be when everyone thought that Lu Lijiu would make a big difference in the court.
"So you really like her so far...... silently paid so much for her. Zhao Wanrong raised her head and stubbornly wiped away the tears that flowed out, "Even Lanzhi has seen that person, how can you not know?"
Zhao Wanrong seemed to be muttering softly, "The sound is not small and unheard, and the line is not hidden and invisible." The jade is in the mountains and the grass and trees are moist, and the pearls are born and the cliffs are not dry. ”
"Taoguang has been in obscurity for so many years, and has taken care of me for so many years, it's really hard for you......"
