Chapter 1017: Choose the tallest among the short ones
Zhuo Ziao hurriedly bypassed the dark guard and ran out of the courtyard gate, but the warning sound of the dark guard sounded behind him again.
"The fifth aunt is the first person the Lord allows you to kill, and the Li family is the last person you can kill. That's it, otherwise...... The next dead person is yourself. ”
Zhuo Ziao: No wonder when he sneaked in and wanted to kill his mother, he found that Yinqiao, who was keeping vigil, had fallen to the ground!
No wonder he could easily enter the firewood room and kill the fifth aunt, it turned out that the lock on the door of the firewood room was opened by the masked man in front of him!
At that time, he mistakenly thought that it was the grandmother who locked the door, and he was careless and did not lock the door at all, it turned out ...... He's been taken advantage of!
His every move is under the noses of others...... The more I thought about it, the more terrifying and terrifying I felt.
Anyway, he has already killed two people in a row and avenged most of the revenge, it's worth it!
In a panic, he escaped from the Prime Minister's Mansion at night!
The secret guard had been following Zhuo Ziao, and after making sure that he had escaped from the Prime Minister's Mansion, he also left and returned to the Blood Demon Gate to resume his life.
The next day, it was still dark, Jingrong kissed Zhuo Nan, who was still asleep beside him, got up to get dressed and washed.
Steward Qing served breakfast and replied before Jing Rong started: "In the middle of the night last night, the disciple who lurked beside the Prime Minister's wife completed the task and returned to the Blood Demon Gate. ”
"Hmm." Jing Rong responded lightly and picked up chopsticks for breakfast.
The green butler stepped back.
Jing Rong finished breakfast and went to the morning court as usual.
By the time Zhuo Nan got up, the sky was already bright, the cold wind was biting, and the cold people were shivering.
In order not to add clothes, Zhuo Nan ordered Aoyagi to find a warm jade and put it on, and the whole person instantly warmed up.
Washing and dressing up as usual, sitting at the table and preparing for breakfast, Honeysuckle walked in and saluted: "Madam, the maid in the old lady's courtyard asks to see her." ”
"Let her in."
"Yes."
Honeysuckle turned around to lead people, and Zhuo Nan started as usual.
When Xiao Wei walked in, she saw Zhuo Nan eating and didn't dare to disturb, standing with her head down. waited until she finished her breakfast and when Honeysuckle and Mama Qian removed the dishes and chopsticks, then she stepped forward and saluted: "Young lady, old lady is invited." ”
Zhuo Nan glanced at her and asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”
Xiao Cumin replied truthfully: "The slave doesn't know. ”
Zhuo Nan was silent for a moment before saying, "You go back first, and Mrs. Ben will arrive later." ”
"Yes." Xiao Cumin finished saluting and turned to leave.
Zhuo Nan took a sip of tea before standing up and taking Qing Yan and Qingliu to Muqiu Courtyard.
As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I saw a person dressed as a matchmaker coming out of Qiu's house.
The matchmaker was carrying the silver in her arms with a happy face, and when she looked up, she saw Zhuo Nan, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, followed by Qing Yan and Qing Liu, and immediately stepped forward to salute with a roll of her eyes.
"The old woman has seen Mrs. Jing!" Even if she didn't know Zhuo Nan, she could guess her identity just by looking at her eyes and looking at the other party's dress as a woman.
Zhuo Nan glanced at the matchmaker, and continued to walk forward and stepped into the house without stopping.
Qiu was talking to Jing Yan when he saw Zhuo Nan walking in, and immediately said straight to the point: "You came just in time!" I have asked the matchmaker to go to the Taishi's Mansion for Yan'er to propose marriage. If the other party agrees, they will get married within a month.
Ru Lan and Ru Mei live in the west courtyard, and now Aunt Huang and two children have been added, too young!
You and Jing Rong moved out and vacated the East Courtyard so that Yan'er could get married. "Don't dare to mention it to my son Jingrong, let's get Zhuo Nan, the eldest daughter-in-law, first!
Speaking of the Taishi Mansion, Zhuo Nan remembered that all the officials who rebelled had been beheaded two days ago.
Those who have not been beheaded have been sent to exile on the frontier.
Among those executed was Li Zheng, the eldest son of Taishifu.
Thinking of the person detained in the rockery secret room in the courtyard, Master Stick, she has long wanted to move out!
Qiu's proposal to split up the family is with her mind.
Looking at Qiu's nodding and agreeing: "Jing Rong returned to the mansion after the next dynasty, and his daughter-in-law mentioned this matter to him." His eyes fell on Jing Yan's body. moved out of Jingfu as soon as possible to vacate the East Courtyard for his uncle and let him get married. ”
Jing Yan deliberately turned his head to look at the other side, pretending not to hear anything.
The nobles of the Taishi Mansion either got married within a month of the period of filial piety, or they could only wait until the expiration of the period of filial piety after three years. But by that time, the school-age nobles of the Taishi Mansion would have become leftovers, and no one would be willing to marry!
Therefore, the Taishi Mansion wants to marry off the nobles in the mansion as soon as possible within a month, and the time limit makes them succumb.
But the Queen Mother stood by and allowed Li Zheng to be executed by the prince, and the power of the Taishi Mansion plummeted.
Ordinary people can't avoid it and won't come to the door to propose marriage at all, but Jing Yan is now highly valued by the five princes, so ...... Pick the tallest of the shortest ...... Jing Yan's proposal to marry the Taishi Mansion will definitely respond!
Qiu didn't expect Zhuo Nan to agree so happily, thinking that the other party would have long been eager to break up! There was some unhappiness in her heart, but she had achieved the goal she wanted and could only endure it. "After Rong'er returns home, you talk to him well, so that he understands that Weiniang is not trying to drive him away, but Jingfu is too small!"
Zhuo Nan glanced at the fake Qiu clan and turned to leave.
Qiu Shi stared at Zhuo Nan's departing back, turned his head to look at Jing Yan and explained: "After they move out of the mansion, you will go up the mountain to pick up Ruomei from Lianruo Temple." "I finally remembered that she also had a daughter! Because the matchmaker came to the door today, she remembered that it was time to find a mother-in-law for Rumei!
Speaking of Jing Rumei, Jing Yan's eyes flashed with guilt, and he nodded solemnly.
Qiu Shi looked at Jing Yan and complained: "I asked her to move out, and she agreed without saying a word!" I thought it was going to be a lot of work! ”
Jing Yan frowned and said: "I heard the fifth prince mention that the eldest brother had a merit in arresting the prime minister this time, and the prince rewarded the Mei Shang Mansion to the eldest brother. ”
After hearing this, Qiu Shi immediately said angrily: "No wonder she immediately agreed when I mentioned the separation!" Living in Mei Mansion? Your sister-in-law is not afraid of nightmares every night, dreaming that the prime minister and those who died unjustly seek revenge on her! ”
Jing Yan. "......" obviously heard that because Jingrong and Zhuo Nan had a bigger Mei Mansion to live in, the Qiu family was jealous but had no face to comfort her. just secretly swore in his heart that once the five princes achieved hegemony, Zhuo Nan and they would definitely be raided.
At that time, he begged the fifth prince to give him the Mei Mansion, and he took the Qiu family and his wife to live in.
I didn't think about the two younger sisters at all, because I thought in my heart that they would marry sooner or later, so they were naturally from someone else's house.
Zhuo Nan walked out of Muqiu Courtyard, Qing Yan quickened his pace and walked side by side with Zhuo Nan, and said with a smile: "Madam, when you should divide the family, the old lady is not very happy." ”
Zhuo Nan responded casually: "It doesn't matter what she does." Now that the other party has spoken, she plans to move out within this month!
Qing Yan asked, "Who do you guess Jing Yan will marry?" Li Ruoyuan or Li Ruolin? ”
Zhuo Nan said directly without thinking about it: "The Qiu family will definitely choose Li Zheng's eldest daughter Li Ruoyuan for him." "The Qiu family looks down on concubines in their bones, and another noble girl of appropriate age, Li Ruolin, is precisely a concubine.
