Chapter 440: The Wedding Feast
It's just that no matter how enthusiastic the ladies at the banquet were, none of them mentioned Fu Nianjun's family affairs.
She is in the limelight now, and there is no accurate number of marriages arranged for her in this palace, how dare they take the lead?
I can only wait and see.
Fu Nianjun drank some wine, and was lazy to deal with them, and soon withdrew, standing alone under the porch to blow the wind.
There are not many lively nights in the Fu family, and the slightly cool air is filled with the fragrance of wine and food, mixed with the smell of firecrackers and sulfur that has not dissipated during the day, a different taste.
Fu Yuan finally got married.
Yilan walked up to Fu Nianjun and whispered a few words to her.
Fu Nianjun was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Daddy has gone back to the house?"
Yilan nodded, "Xianggong may have drunk too much wine, do you want to go and see it?"
Fu Kun now, there is not even a person around him who knows hot and cold, and he has long lost interest in taking concubines or something, and his colleagues want to send women, but they refuse every time.
Fu Nianjun suddenly blamed herself, Fu Kun is like this now, she also has to take a little responsibility for this.
"Go make a pot of decanting soup, I'll bring it myself. ”
She commanded to go down.
Is Fu Kun so depressed because of his eldest son?
Of course, he also loves Fu Yuan, but Fu Yuan is his eldest son and has inherited all the expectations of him and his deceased wife, so from childhood to adulthood, he has to be estranged from his son, avoid being too close, and spur him to be motivated.
Thinking like this, Fu Nianjun felt that tonight, perhaps the most sad person was Fu Kun.
When he arrived at Fu Kun's study, Fu Nianjun felt that he seemed to be not only sad, but also a little wrong.
She didn't even notice when she came in.
"Daddy?"
Fu Nianjun called and put the sobering soup on the table, and Fu Kun came back to his senses.
"It's you who came, Nianjun......"
"What's wrong with Daddy?"
Fu Nianjun felt that his face was a little strange and absent-minded.
"It's fine, I'm just a little tired. ”
Fu Kun raised his hand and pressed his eyebrows.
This action, every time he encounters something difficult in the court, Fu Kun will do it.
Fu Nianjun didn't understand why he had such an expression today as Fu Yuan's big day.
"Daddy, are you bothered by something......
Fu Nianjun still didn't feel at ease.
Fu Kun smiled at her and took the initiative to divert the topic.
"Nope. Nianjun, unconsciously, you are all so old, you and your brother ...... I'm going to get married, and I'm getting old. ”
The melancholy in his words is poignant.
"Daddy may be able to hold his grandson soon, aren't you happy?"
Fu Nianjun comforted him.
Fu Kun laughed a few times, nodded, took her decanting soup, and drank it all.
Putting down the bowl, Fu Kun stood up and said, "It's been long enough to be idle, it's time for me to send off the guests." ”
In fact, with his identity, it's nothing if he doesn't give it away.
But with the two county kings here today, he really can't be too lazy.
Fu Nianjun went to help Fu Kun, only to feel that he seemed to be a little unstable under his feet.
"Daddy beware!"
Fu Kun is not a greedy drinker, and Fu Nianjun doesn't think he will get drunk depressed on his son's big day.
He was indeed absent-minded.
Seeing Fu Kun leave, Fu Nianjun turned around and asked the little guy who was serving with him:
"Who did Daddy just meet?"
The little guy thought for a while and hesitated, "Also...... There is no one, Zuo is just the adults who went to the banquet today, and the future students who came to visit. ”
Fu Kun has a good temper, and he has never put on a stand for some juniors, so there are naturally many people who take this opportunity to visit him today.
Fu Nianjun looked at the deep night, so he had to nod, "Okay, I know." ”
******
On the other hand, the two brothers, Zhou Yuchen and Zhou Yubai, both attended the wedding banquet tonight, but their moods were different.
drank too much wine, and it was rare for a polite person like Zhou Yuchen to let go.
He took Zhou Yubai's arm, supported one hand on his shoulder, frowned and talked to his younger brother.
For him, the Fu family is like a nightmare.
Fu Lihua.
Even if she is not in the Fu family now, she is a daughter of the Fu family who has been left of the family, but Zhou Yuchen clearly knows that as her marriage is approaching, the day she will enter the palace is getting closer and closer.
Such a woman turned out to be Fu Xiang's daughter.
Zhou Yuchen only felt that his heart was full of bitterness.
He couldn't bear to criticize his mother, even though he knew that it was all her own doing.
"Brother Qi'er, have another drink with me......"
Zhou Yuchen raised the wine glass in his hand again.
Zhou Yubai's amount of wine is very good, Zhou Yuchen saw it last time, and he knew that he couldn't drink him at all.
"Sixth brother should be careful of his body, drink so much, Concubine Zhang Shufei should send a doctor to sober up for you. ”
He reached out to help his brother.
Zhou Yuchen waved his hand away, and his eyes were exceptionally bright.
Sometimes people are quite strange, obviously drunk inside, but their eyes look brighter than usual.
"Seventh brother, tell me the truth, do you want to be the prince?"
Zhou Yuchen's eyes looked straight at Zhou Yubai.
Zhou Yubai's pale pupils shone brightly under the lights.
He didn't have any reaction on his face, just said lightly: "Sixth brother, you are drunk." ”
Zhou Yuchen smiled and asked him:
"Do you hate my aunt? I know that she has done a lot of wrong things over the years...... The position of the prince should be yours, it should be yours...... It's not my turn......"
If it weren't for Zhou Yubai knowing him very well, he would really think that Zhou Yuchen was pretending to be drunk to test him.
His hand passed under Zhou Yuchen's armpit, exerting force to make him stand up, and the people next to him wanted to help, but Zhou Yubai just waved them to stand farther away.
"The prince is my father's preferred candidate, even if my brother becomes the prince, will it be difficult for me?"
He whispered in Zhou Yuchen's ear.
Zhou Yuchen laughed, laughing.
"Yes, yes, we're brothers, we're brothers...... Is it a brother?"
The more he spoke, the more confused he became, leaning on Zhou Yubai's shoulder, and began to babble indiscriminately, so that people could no longer hear what he said.
Only then did Zhou Yubai call two inseparable guards and ask them to help Zhou Yuchen leave.
He looked at the moon in the sky alone, and felt that it was too cold.
He always remembered that when he was a child, he and Zhou Yuchen learned to ride a horse together, the two were naughty, took advantage of the master's inattention, took a horse, and finally both fell down, but Zhou Yuchen still remembered to press himself on him.
Until now, Zhou Yuchen's knee still has the scar left by the stone back then.
They are brothers, but they are brothers of the royal family, and too many people want them not to be brothers.
But he is not an outsider, Zhou Yubai thought, curling his lips and smiling.
The outcome is set by him, not by others.
