Chapter 381: Seeking Advice
"The Xue family has raised the strength of the whole clan to let you grow up with dignity and dignity, and have carefully educated you, and you have repaid the Xue family one by one, and this is how you repay the Xue family?
Xue Lanzhi's biological father, the eldest master of the Xue family, was so angry that he slapped the table, and the tea set on the table made a loud noise. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Xue Lanzhi raised her head with tears in her eyes, very aggrieved in her heart.
"But my daughter doesn't want to go to the palace...... What kind of place is there, father, you know it......"
Seeing that his daughter dared to fight back, Master Xue trembled with anger, and simply turned to his wife Xiao Lu and scolded angrily:
"Look, this is the good daughter you have raised! What kind of place is in the palace? It is the most noble place in the whole world! It is her blessing to be able to enter!"
Although Xiao Lu is also the wife in charge of the Xue family, she does not speak with weight like her sister Da Lu in the He family, and she was angry and scolded by her husband, so she could only listen with her head buried in it, and she didn't dare to defend herself.
Xue Lanzhi saw that her mother was scolded, but she didn't do it, wiped her tears, and the eldest lady's temper, which had been arrogant since childhood, couldn't be suppressed even if she was facing her father, and opened her mouth to ask:
"Blessings? How many of the concubines who have entered the palace can get a good death? That is a place where you don't see the light of day! The second brother has been ruined by you for a lifetime, and now, you want to cut me off again, what is the difference between us and the drama advocate Ling bought at home? It's just that we can raise it well, and we can sell it for a good price in the future!"
Master Xue originally heard his daughter mention Xue Yunhai, the nephew of the eldest princess of Huijun, and his heart was extremely uncomfortable, and the more he listened, the more angry his face rose, and he raised his hand, eager to give his daughter a slap!
Xiao Lu saw that something was wrong, so he hurriedly pounced on Master Xue and stopped Master Xue, while glaring at his daughter angrily: "What are you talking nonsense, don't you hurry up and apologize to your father!"
Xue Lanzhi's expression was gloomy, but she bit it to death and did not bow her head:
"Am I talking nonsense? The second brother was originally a two-rank jinshi with a great future, but for the sake of royal power, the family asked him to be a concubine who looked at people's faces, and ruined his splendid future! Now when he sees that he is in trouble, he will immediately leave the clan -- how can you be cold and selfish to such an extent? Now you want me to see the emperor's face, I tell you the truth, the seventh cousin is still alive, and I will never enter the palace again, even if I die, I will never enter the palace again!"
Master Xue almost didn't come up in one breath, his heart, liver, lungs and spleen, everywhere hurts!
"My Xue family is also a big clan in Shaanzhou, and I used to be famous in the capital, why is the eldest daughter who was raised is such an ignorant thing!? I will tell you today, I can't help you!"
He didn't bother to explain to Xue Lanzhi that if he didn't leave Xue Yunhai, the Xue family might have a catastrophe, and he didn't want to stay here anymore to move so much, so he covered his chest and waved his hand in despair, leaving a cruel word, and staggered out.
It wasn't until he walked to his study that Master Xue sat in front of the bookcase, and after a while, suddenly two lines of old tears fell on the snow-white rice paper, and the head of the Xue family, who was not confused, lay down on the bookcase, whimpering and choking.
Back then, in order to cling to King Ning, he sent the most prominent son and nephew of the clan to be a concubine, and he also objected, but how did those clansmen who were blinded by the royal wealth listen to him?
Now, the original act of clinging has become a fatal thing, and what makes him even more heartbroken is that the younger generation of the Xue family has actually become such a person!
The life and death of the most promising Xue Yunhai is uncertain, and he has become a waste, and it is just Xue Yuntao, a concubine with an unscrupulous heart, but now even the eldest daughter of the Xue family, who is the most capable of the family, is such a person who has no clan in his heart, just for his own pleasure, not to mention the others in the clan!
With such a junior, even if the Xue family escapes this incident and is not purged by the emperor, what future can it have?
"Lanzhi, how can you talk to your father like this? Your father wants you to enter the palace, but also to spell out a way for the Xue family to live, you were born as the daughter of the Xue family, how can you be so ignorant? You must know that your children are long-term, and compared to the lives of the He family, they are nothing! If the Xue family has a chance and is implicated by King Ning, even if your seventh cousin is alive, he will never marry you, it is your life, whether you can be here or not, it is unknown!"
Xiao Lu was worried about her husband and didn't worry about her daughter, so she could only stay and admonish her daughter.
She was also extremely dissatisfied with her daughter's words.
What woman was not born for the sake of the family? When my sister married into the He family, she married into the Xue family, although it was based on her husband's family, but who dared to forget her origin and family?
Xue Lanzhi saw that her father was angry with her, and she was also a little uneasy, but as soon as her mother spoke, her uneasiness disappeared again.
"King Ning is King Ning, the Xue family hasn't helped him in all these years, what are you afraid of? The second brother has been out of the clan by you, even if it is implicated, it should not be implicated in the Xue family!"
Xiao Lu sighed, her daughter has been smart and clever since she was a child, but why does the more she grows up, the more stupid she becomes?
"Then you have to meet a Qingming emperor, know that our Xue family has nothing to do with King Ning over the years! Look at the current emperor, what he has done and done, which one is Qingming? That Wang Du is still the imperial history, saying that the nine clans were punished by the nine clans, have you ever heard of the nine clans who have been punished by the imperial history since the establishment of the Great Qi Dynasty? Now that the Xue family is innocent, it is also stepping on the tip of the knife, whether it is life or death, it all depends on the emperor's thoughts!"
Xue Lanzhi lowered her head and thought about it, but what she thought was completely different from her mother, and a sneer appeared on her beautiful face: "Since you all know that the current emperor is not virtuous, mediocre and willful, but he still wants to send me to the palace, is this completely disregarding my life and death?"
Xiao Lu was really angry by his daughter's words: "If you can survive in the palace, the Xue family will naturally have a way to live, but if the Xue family is gone, even if you don't enter the palace, can you live? How could I give birth to such a stubborn and conscienceless daughter as you!"
Xue Lanzhi turned her head indifferently, her face was full of indifference and resoluteness: "No matter what you say, if I say that if I don't enter the palace, I won't enter the palace, as long as the seventh cousin doesn't get married for a day, I won't give up for a day! If you think I have no conscience, you can treat me as a daughter without me!"
Xiao Lu really felt her husband's anger and powerlessness in an instant, she stared at her daughter who was pinned on the hope of the whole clan without blinking, and she couldn't tell whether she was pleading or angry:
"Laneige, your seventh cousin is dead, and that person is the prince of Qin!"
"No, I know he is, and I recognize it at a glance. ”
Xue Lanzhi didn't eat oil and salt, but his eyes were a little fluttering.
The seventh cousin on the horse is still as handsome as before, which is unforgettable at a glance, and the shadow of the unruly boy has faded, which makes her feel even more brilliant.
Such a seventh cousin, she can't let go no matter what!
Xiao Lu's rules and demeanor are as good as that of her sister Mrs. He, but at this time, she couldn't help but shout angrily:
"Even if he is, he can't decide the life and death of the Xue family, he's just a powerless proton, Laneige, can't you be sober?!"
Xue Lanzhi shook his head: "Can't be sober...... At least, compared to you, he never had a thorough desire to take advantage of me. ”
Xiao Lu's tears welled up in his eyes.
How could a daughter have such an idea? What use or not, she is the daughter of the Xue family, isn't it the right thing to sacrifice for the Xue family?
Xiao Lu couldn't figure out this truth.
Xiao Shaotang had already sent a secret letter to Yuzhou yesterday, but when Bai Chenghuan talked about it today, it made him even more uneasy.
The emperor who was suspicious of his heart attack, even his own brother who had done nothing wrong had to rush back to the fiefdom, not to mention the He family, and naturally there would be no softness in dealing with it.
Mr. Yuan thought for a while, rubbed his chin and said, "Shizi, why don't you go quietly and meet the Seventh Master?"
"Uncle Seven?"
Xiao Shaotang muttered and was silent for a long time.
Since coming to the capital, he has been cautious in his relationship with the He family, lest someone see something and implicate the He family.
Even the seventh uncle, who served as a waiter in the ministry, never dared to come forward to say a word, and the last time he saw it, he went to meet him by visiting his father's old friend.
Uncle Seven obviously didn't know what happened back then, and he was polite when he saw him, but secretly he also had tears in his eyes, and he must have some suspicions in his heart.
"The prince is worried that the seventh master doesn't know what happened back then?"
Mr. Yuan asked, picked up the fan, and fanned the cold air coming out of the ice basin to his side, and then said: "Or is the prince worried that this visit will be discovered by the emperor's people and cause trouble to the He family?"
Xiao Shaotang nodded: "Both." ”
If the Seventh Uncle didn't know, why did he get involved in this incident? What's more, Xue Lanzhi cried like that at the city gate yesterday, if the emperor was suspicious, his every move would have been in the emperor's eyes.
Mr. Yuan was not reluctant: "Since the prince has this worry, then I won't see the seventh master first, let's seal a secret letter to the prince, and let the prince solve this matter from the northwest." ”
"That's a good idea. ”
They are in the capital, under the emperor's nose, and the northwest is far away, even if the emperor is suspicious for a while, his hand will not be able to stretch out so long for the time being, and his father must be more thoughtful than him in handling this matter.
Xiao Shaotang immediately put his pen and ink on the table and was about to write a letter.
Mr. Yuan talked about something else.
Mr. Yuan, who calls himself "unintentional Fengyue", has a gossip on his face, like gossip on the street, and the freshness of the literati is gone:
"Shizi, you went to Weibei Houfu today, and Miss Bai saw you, and didn't she kick you out immediately?"
The pen in Xiao Shaotang's hand leaked a big cloud of thick ink on the paper.
Mr. Yuan's eyes widened: "Really kicked you out?"
Xiao Shaotang picked up the pen again, remembered Bai Chenghuan's calm and indifferent attitude of throwing flowers with his hand, and shook his head: "No, she didn't drive me out immediately, but it was more uncomfortable than driving me out as soon as we met...... She doesn't have me in her heart. ”
Mr. Yuan's eyes immediately turned into a pair of copper bells: "You, you, you have said everything, otherwise how do you know that she does not have you in her heart?"
Didn't you say take your time?
Xiao Shaotang nodded, and said with a straight face: "Mr. told me that emotional matters are not in a hurry, but the moment I found her, I looked at her dressed in red, which was very different from the past, and I was very scared in my heart - I was afraid that if I was one step late, she would never see me in her eyes again." ”
Mr. Yuan sighed again and again: "Young, young in the end, can't hold your breath...... She can't see you, who can she see? She doesn't go out of the door on weekdays, what are you afraid of? Wouldn't it be embarrassing for you to see her again?"
If you want to say who Bai Chenghuan might like, Xiao Shaotang can name a series of people: "The one on the dragon chair, as well as Song Sanlang, and King Jin ......"
"If she can look down on the one on the dragon chair, will she build this bridge between us and Weibei Houfu and lead this line?" King Jin, that is a simple-hearted person, if she has any thoughts, she will definitely not hide it, look at what King Jin did, but really treat her as the eldest sister, as for Song Sanlang......" Mr. Yuan remembered the clear Song family son yesterday, and shook his head: "It can't be done, that kind of person, a rich son who is full of idleness, she won't be clumsy to this point, ten out of ten King Xiang have dreams, and the goddess has no heart." ”
After listening to Mr. Yuan's analysis one by one, Xiao Shaotang also felt relieved, but he was a little lost: "Now it's my King Xiang who has a dream, and the goddess has no heart, sir, you teach me, what should I do to make her change her mind?"
Mr. Yuan laughed out loud, stretched out his bone fan and fanned slowly: "I didn't let you twist this not sweet melon at the beginning, you had to twist it, but now you come to ask me, I am really ...... I'm an old bachelor in my forties, what can I teach you?"
"Mr. has hills and valleys in his chest, Shao Tang knows in his heart that if this melon is twisted, it will naturally be sweet, doesn't Mr. want Shao Tang to have a sweeter melon to eat in this life?"
Xiao Shaotang could see that Mr. Yuan had an idea in his heart, so he simply begged cheekily.
Mr. Yuan laughed when he heard this, laughed so much that the folds at the corners of his eyes were stacked on top of each other, closed the fan and clapped his hands, before he stopped laughing and said:
"The son of the world is a wise man, don't you know what is the most important thing in this world, if you want to marry a woman?"
Xiao Shaotang thought for a moment: "Isn't it to please that girl, and the two are happy?"
"Wrong!"
The fan tail in Mr. Yuan's hand habitually knocked heavily on the desk, and he was very helpless about the little master, a tendon head that was different from ordinary people:
"No matter how much the girl likes you, what's the use? For ordinary people, the life of the parents and the words of the matchmaker are the right way!"
Xiao Shaotang's eyes suddenly lit up: "Mr. means ......"
"I mean, you don't have to twist this melon, just pick it home and raise it slowly, it's not sweet, it's always sweet, right?"
Regarding the matter of twisting this melon, Mr. Yuan made a final decision.
