Chapter 703 Such a Little Thing
The fifth prince stood up happily and said, "In this way, I just took advantage of these two days to ask my father for the holy decree of marriage, and strive to announce it in public at the banquet held by your wife. "The person invited by Mrs. Jing must be a noble girl in the whole capital, so that Qingwu is highly regarded and envied, and she will be moved to protect him with her life.
Jing Rong bowed slightly, expressing agreement.
The fifth prince said happily: "It's late at night, I've been disturbing Brother Jing for a long time, so I will leave." ”
Jing Rong got up to send him off.
Without waiting for the fifth prince to open the door of the study, Qing Wu, who was guarding outside, heard the footsteps of someone approaching, and took the lead in pushing open the door of the study, and then bowed his head and retreated to the side.
The fifth prince walked out and stared at Qing Wu with a happy face.
Jing Rong glanced lightly and ordered: "Qing Wu, send the fifth prince out of the mansion." ”
"No." Qing Wu responded and saluted the five princes. "Your Highness, please." Lead the way.
Jing Rong stood on the spot and glanced at the backs of the five princes and others leaving, jumped to the roof, turned around and flew to the top of the back mountain to practice.
Qing Wu has been sending the five princes out of the gate of Jingfu.
The fifth prince suddenly turned around and hugged Qing Wu tightly in his arms, lowered his head and whispered: "Jing Rong has promised this prince to release him, and ordered Mrs. Jing to accept you as a righteous sister." When the Japanese prince enters the palace, he will ask his father for the position of concubine, no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are, he will not be able to stop the prince's determination to marry you, dance, wait for me! Suddenly pushed Qing Wu away, turned around and walked towards the carriage.
Qing Wu looked moved with tears in her eyes, and looked at the back of the fifth prince walking towards the carriage stupidly.
The eunuch Quancai looked at Qing Wu with a flattering face and saluted: "Congratulations to Mrs. Qing." Seeing Qing Wu's shy and timid excited look, he followed closely behind the fifth prince and got into the carriage with disdain.
Qing Wu stood in place stupidly, until he saw the carriage completely leave his sight, the infatuation on his face instantly dissipated, and his eyes were full of pride.
Don't cry if you don't see the coffin! Marry her as a side concubine earlier, how can there be an assassin tonight.
Turned around and stepped into the gate of Jingfu.
The next day, it was still dark outside.
Jing Rong got up and went to the morning court, and before leaving, he suddenly remembered that he hadn't told Zhuo Nan about accepting Qingwu as a righteous sister. Reaching out and gently pinching her nose, "Madame, wake up." ”
Zhuo Nan slapped his hand impatiently, and muttered without opening his eyes. "I know that you are going to the morning court, you don't need to tell me, go quickly......."
Jing Rong saw that she looked lazy and wanted to continue sleeping, and chuckled and said: "Last night, my husband promised the fifth prince to marry Qing Wu as a side concubine, and you accepted her as a righteous sister, and the next day in the mansion to feast on the wife of the ministers." ”
"Uh-huh......." Zhuo Nan answered in a daze, turned over and continued to sleep.
Jing Rong stretched out his hand to help her cover the quilt, and reminded her with a smile: "The matter of recognizing Qingwu as a righteous sister is just a superficial article to fool others, and it will not really be a blood sacrifice for the alliance to worship the Bodhisattva, don't take it seriously." Seeing her close her eyes and a perfunctory 'um', she turned to leave.
More than an hour later, Zhuo Nan didn't look like she was awake, sitting lazily in front of the dresser and letting Aoyagi serve her to make up.
The green housekeeper stood aside and indifferently reported the affairs in the house. "Madam, the invitation to the slave and maid has been sent out, and a banquet will be held in the mansion on time the day after tomorrow to entertain the wives of the ministers."
"Oh." Zhuo Nan answered lazily. Banquet for the wives of the courtiers? Fuchu?! His eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Aoyagi through the treasure mirror. "What invitation banquet?"
The green housekeeper said lightly: "You accept the banquet held by Qingwu for the righteous sister." ”
Zhuo Nan: "......" When is she going to accept Qingwu as a righteous sister!
When Aoyagi heard this, she lowered her eyes and continued to help Zhuo Nan make up.
Zhuo Nan raised her eyebrows and glanced at Qingliu through the treasure mirror, looked at Steward Qing and asked, "When did Mrs. Ben say that she wanted to accept Qingwu as her sister-in-law?" Why take her? ”
The green housekeeper replied indifferently: "The master instructed the slave and maid, saying that you have agreed." ”
Zhuo Nan: "......" recalls carefully with a stiff face, before Jing Fox went to court, it seemed to be ...... Seem...... It's what the five princes said, what the righteous sisters. She seems to ...... It's time to go!
Steward Qing continued: "The master said that the fifth prince wanted to marry Qing Wu as a side concubine, and the status of the maidservant was too low. If you have any opinions, you can accept Qingwu as a righteous sister in his name. ”
Aoyagi: It would also be a blessing for her to be the righteous sister of the Lord if Aomai could be the lord's righteous sister. It's a pity that she knows that all this is just a trick to fool the five princes, and it is impossible for either the lord or the lady to really become a relative with her sister Qingwu.
Zhuo Nan frowned, and let go randomly: "He doesn't even want his own sister, what more sister?" He glanced at the green housekeeper. What's more, you've sent out invitations in the name of Mrs. Ben, and now it's too late to ask Mrs. Ben if she has any opinions? You and your master are the same dog! ”
made it clear that she would rather let the world think that she recognized Qingwu as a righteous sister, rather than Qingwu and Jing Fox to have a brother-sister relationship.
Even if Jing Fox said that he was just doing superficial articles and pretending, it would not work!
Aoyagi's eyes flashed with a look of loss.
The green housekeeper let Zhuo Nan blame, and his eyebrows and eyes remained indifferent.
Zhuo Nan waved his hand back and said, "Okay, Mrs. Ben agrees, you can do it." ”
The green butler responded. "Yes, the slave has one more thing to return. The Prime Minister's Mansion sent someone to inform Madame, saying that he had obtained the tea that Madame had specified and asked for it, so that you would have time to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion today. ”
Zhuo Nan thought about it for a moment and looked at the Qing Yan on the side. "For such a trivial matter, you will go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion on behalf of Mrs. Ben."
Qing Yan smiled sweetly. "The slave and maid are doing things safely, madam, please rest assured."
Zhuo Nan glared at her. "Okay, don't brag about yourself, you all step back and hurry up."
"No." Qing Yan and Qing Butler responded in unison, and retreated and left in turn.
The green housekeeper and the green man left Jinmoju one after another.
The green housekeeper ordered someone to organize the banquet for the day after tomorrow.
Qing Yan left Jingfu, walked to the street and hailed an ordinary carriage to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Jinmo was inside, Zhuo Nan sat at the table and had breakfast, and after using it, he went to the pond to feed the fish.
Honeysuckle walked over. "Madam, Miss Ru Mei wants to see you."
"Hmm." Zhuo Nan didn't raise his head in response, and looked at the carnivorous fish in the pond with burning eyes.
Mama Qian stood aside, looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, and bowed her head to remind, "Madam, be careful that the scorching sun hurts your skin." ”
Zhuo Nan stood up and went back to the room. Sitting at the table, I took a sip of the teacup, and suddenly felt that there was no taste.
Mama Qian noticed this scene and proposed: "Madam, the slave in the manor just sent a basket of watermelons and grapes today, do you want to taste it?" ”
Zhuo Nan nodded in agreement.
Mama Qian turned around and went to the small kitchen.
Soon Mama Qian went and returned, bringing two plates of fruit, a plate of washed grapes dotted with crystal water droplets, and a plate of cut watermelon.
