Chapter 14: The Marriage That Has Been Put on Hold for a Long Time

"Yongyibo's family has already returned to Yongyibo's mansion. Jin Liang hurriedly said, "The county lord of Jingshu sent someone over to thank you yesterday evening, saying that he knew that you must be very busy now, so he will officially come to the door in two days to thank you for taking care of you when you were in Nanfeng County...... At that time, we were all at the banquet in the palace, and we were received by the steward. Yesterday you fell asleep on the way back, and the slave didn't have time to tell you. ”

Sheng Weiqiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that they don't have any trouble...... Well, the title of Earl Yongyi also has the title of Jingshu's county lord?"

"Of course it didn't move. Jin Li covered her mouth and smiled, "These two are canonized by the Empress Dowager herself, and they originate from Duke Huan." Who in the world doesn't know that if there is no Duke Huan, eighty percent will not have the Queen Mother today! So when Chongxin Hou was in charge of Chang'an before, he didn't mention the Huan family. ”

Sheng Weiqiao was relieved at this time, and said with his head bowed: "That's good." ”

Jin Li said again: "Niangniang, although you and the old lady have only come here, after such a while, there have been many posts on the door, and the slave and maid have flipped through with Sister Yishan, either to invite you to the banquet, or to visit the door." Most of the posts come with generous gifts, you see?"

"I've only come to Chang'an now, and the recent situation here is not very clear, and there are still Xu family and other world friends who need to be visited, and the house also needs to be familiar with the rules, where is this kung fu?" Sheng Weiqiao had a headache when he heard this, and he muttered for a while, and said, "I'll ask Mi Zhen what the rules are!"

Just as he was saying this, he saw Rong Sleeping Crane coming in from outside, holding Rong Ruibin in his hand. The time of contact between their father and son is too short, and Rong Ruibin is not full moon, somehow, he is extremely distant from his parents, and anyone can hug him, which is the kind that his biological parents can't touch.

So much so that Rong Sleeping Crane was very rusty in his way of holding the child at this time, and his stiff posture didn't dare to move at all after being instructed by Feng or the nurse.

Seeing him as cautious as if facing a great enemy, Sheng Weiqiao couldn't help but bend the corners of his mouth, and said happily: "I know that you came over with a child, but if you don't know, I thought you were holding a tiger with your head!"

"If I really hugged the tiger, I wouldn't be so nervous!" Rong Sleeping Crane didn't say a word, walked up to her, stuffed the child into her arms, and watched his wife pick it up, before he said with relief, "It doesn't matter if the tigers fall and beat left and right, where is it like our own flesh and blood......? I'm afraid that somewhere, my hand will hurt him!"

"Where is it so squeamish?" Sheng Weiqiao said disapprerovingly, "My father and mother say that he is like you, and his body and bones are good! ”

That being said, she was also carefully holding the swaddling clothes.

Rong Sleeping Crane made fun of her: "Do you dare to go to your father and mother to say this?"

Sheng Lanci and his wife look at Rong Ruibin's grandson like a heart, and they are not spoiled at all compared to raising Sheng Weiqiao before, how can they tolerate others' casual attitude towards Rong Ruibin?

My mother can't do this!

Sheng Weiqiao choked and said, "I dare to go to my father and say!

Compared with Feng's, in the end, Sheng Lanci dotes on her daughter more.

“…… I dare to go to my father and say it!" Rong Sleeping Crane pondered for a moment and said resolutely, "Do you dare?"

Sheng Weiqiao slapped him with tears and laughter, and said, "Fang Jinli said that there were many posts on the door, and they all followed the ceremony, and many of the gifts were not light...... What is going to be done about this?"

"You look at it, almost everyone has taken it. Hearing this, Rong Sleeping Crane thought for a while and said, "After all, now that I have a heavy army, I don't accept the generous gifts sent to the door, and some people are just afraid that they will have to sit still." ”

Sheng Weiqiao was about to answer, but he said again, "By the way, there is something you need to help do." ”

"What's the matter?" Sheng Weiqiao asked hurriedly.

"It's Axi's marriage. When Rong Sleepy Crane said this, he looked down at his infant son, lowered his eyelashes to hide the emotions in his eyes, and said casually, "Didn't you say it before? It was for him to show the Zhao family? It's just that when he came to Chang'an, he happened to be in a hurry to change, and the army was in chaos, so this matter was delayed." Now that we're back, my uncle mentioned it euphemistically two days ago. ”

Gongsun Xi and Empress Meng because of Dong Liang's calculations, the queen is now pregnant with Gongsun Xi's child, but she announced to the outside world that she is the concubine of Emperor Xuanjing, and Rong Sleeping Crane has known about this for a long time.

Originally, he thought that Gongsun Xi and Empress Meng were in love, although the queen's status was more special, but for Rong Mianhe, it was not a big deal. Since the henchmen who grew up together like it, then it will be fulfilled.

But when he came back to Chang'an this time, Dong Liang came to ask for guilt, and after repenting that he shouldn't have made such an embarrassing life for Gongsun Xi, he began to complain: he knelt in front of Rong Sleeping Crane, and poured out his snot and tears about the difficulty of cultivating the five people in Wuyi Camp, such as Wiyin, Wixin and Meng Li, as well as the loyalty of these five people to Rong Sleeping Crane, but in the end he died because of Queen Meng, and according to the news from the inside, the five people died worse than the other.

Such as the wisp of sound and the wisp of the heart, it was in front of the queen who touched the pillar and committed suicide, and was watched by the queen to swallow his last breath.

And Meng Li and the others, because they didn't know it, were tortured by Meng Guiyu, refused to betray the Wuyi camp, and were tortured to death.

Rong Sleeping Crane was already tightly protected, not to mention that a few wisps died for his loyalty, if he didn't express this situation, what would the people below think?

Although with Rong Sleeping Crane's current status and power, this matter is so vague in the past, and it can't shake him anything. But ordinary subordinates are also okay, the Wuyi Camp is the foundation of his family, and the trust is even higher than the Jishan Battalion, not to mention the loss of five in one go, even if one is seriously injured, he will feel distressed.

It's a rage right now!

Originally, because of Sheng Weiqiao and Gongsun Xi's relationship with Queen Meng, he still thought that after the matter was completed in the future, it would be better for Queen Meng to change her identity and continue to be a noblewoman.

Now that I heard that the death of the five henchmen is suspected to be related to the queen, where can I be polite to Queen Meng?

Immediately summoned Gongsun Xi to him and re-mentioned the matter of marrying the Zhao family!

Because Dong Liang hid the death of Weiyin and others from Gongsun Xi, Gongsun Xi only knew that the queen was pregnant with his own child, and he was surprised when he heard this, and euphemistically mentioned the pregnancy of the queen and the queen, but Rong Sleepy Crane said coldly: "No one outside knows about this matter, so you should not know what to do." It's just that you slept with a Meng girl, and with your identity, what is it to reward you with all the Meng daughters in the future?

When Gongsun Xi heard this, he naturally understood that Rong Sleeping Crane didn't plan to let the queen give birth at all, and didn't even plan to let the queen live, but wanted him to have a child with the queen, and it would become a secret forever.

After a short period of thought, he finally chose to obey Rong Sleeping Crane.

This performance made Rong Sleeping Crane feel better, and decided to give the queen a happy ...... when he cleaned up the queen in the future. If Empress Meng really enveloped her henchman, it would be strange if she didn't cut this person with a thousand knives!

He grew up with Gongsun Xi for his life, and worked hard to cultivate this henchman, hoping that the master and servant would work together to have a good future, but not to pick peaches for Queen Meng!

"After all, the third cousin is not young, and if she doesn't leave the cabinet, her youth will be delayed. There were all kinds of thoughts in his heart, but Rong Sleeping Crane didn't show anything on his face, teasing his son, and said calmly, "So after visiting the Xu family, how about you take Ah Xi to the Zhao Mansion and let him meet with the third cousin?" I think Ah Xi's appearance, the Zhao family should be satisfied." But in order to show respect for the eldest uncle, it is better to ask the third cousin to take a look at it in person!"

Sheng Weiqiao has been away from Chang'an for a long time, and the matter between Gongsun Xi and Queen Meng, Wuyiying has been suppressing and not telling her, I heard that the queen is happy, and I thought it was really Emperor Xuanjing's child.

So even if she had noticed a little affection for Gongsun Xi earlier, at this time, only the queen had accepted her fate, and even had an heir with Emperor Xuanjing, so she naturally had nothing to think about about the marriage between Gongsun Xi and Zhao Taoxi.

After agreeing to it, he also reminded Rong Sleeping Crane: "I said before that I want to recognize Ah Xi as my righteous brother, so that he will marry the third cousin, and the third cousin's face will also have brilliance?"

Rong Sleeping Crane has been entangled in everything during this time, and he has forgotten this.

At this moment, Wen Yan smiled and said, "Fortunately, you reminded ...... Otherwise, let's recognize Ah Xi first, and then you will naturally take him to Zhao's house to visit relatives?"

So the matter was decided, Sheng Weiqiao checked the gift list for Ming'er to go to the Xu family, and summoned the stewards and others to discuss what to do with the ceremony of recognizing the righteous brother.

When Sheng Lanci and his wife heard the news, they came over to help with the details, because Rong Mianhe and his wife and Gongsun Xi didn't like red tape, not to mention that it was not too cumbersome when Chang'an was turbulent at present.

A cadre of people discussed for a long time, and then called Gongsun Xi himself to come over and ask for some opinions, and soon decided to set up a wine in the county king's mansion the day after that, and only invited the Xu family and a few stewards who had appeared in front of people to come to the banquet, and announced during the banquet that they would exchange a meeting gift or something, that is.

After the agreement, the stewards retired, and Sheng Lanci and his wife asked about their daughter: "I heard you mention this matter to your aunt earlier, but since it has been delayed for so long, and now we have just come to Chang'an, and we have never heard of any credit that Ah Xi has made recently, why do you have to do it in a hurry?"

"When I was in Northern Xinjiang earlier, didn't Ah Xi follow me?" Sheng Weiqiao glanced at the henchmen all around, pursed his lips, and then said, "At that time, the eldest uncle took a fancy to him for the third cousin, but the eldest uncle is also a daughter who loves him, and I think that although he looks at Ah Xi well, it is always necessary for the third cousin to like it." Therefore, it was agreed that Ah Xi would show the third cousin, and the third cousin would have no opinion, and then settle down!"

"It's not that Mi Zhen thinks that Ah Xi also has this age, he is only one year younger than Mi Zhen, and now Rui Bin is two years old, his marriage has not yet been settled, and the eldest uncle is afraid that he will miss the flowering period of his third cousin, so he urges euphemistically...... That's why I want to match them up. ”

"I remembered the words of this righteous brother earlier, and persuaded Mizhen to recognize Ah Xi first, and go back to the Zhao family, which is more decent. ”

"The Zhao family?" As soon as Sheng Lanci and his wife heard about the Zhao family, their faces turned a little dark, and they snorted lightly, "Are their families okay lately?"

In matters involving his daughter, the Feng family would occasionally look up to Xuanyu Feng's family, and couldn't help but add another sincere sentence, "That old lady Qin, at a very old age, has tossed back and forth from Chang'an to Ruzhou for such a time, but she is not dead?"
