204 Dilemma
By the time he returned to the yard in the pouring rain, it was already dark. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as he came out after changing his clothes, he was reported by Yu Xinxun, an old man in his sixties who was newly proposed, saying that the master was invited.
Hearing this, a fine light flashed in Yu Manman's eyes, how could Yu Xinxun suddenly think of finding himself?
After hearing this, Wang Ma, who was standing on the side, couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked the housekeeper:
"Steward Lin, do you know what the master is looking for Miss?"
"This old slave doesn't know, but the young lady will know when she goes. The old man bowed his head and replied.
When Wang Ma heard this, she couldn't help but look at Yu Manman with a worried face:
"Miss, look at this ........"
"Since Daddy is looking for me, I'll go and see it. Yu Manman said lightly.
"But, miss....... It's time for dinner........" Mama Wang squeezed out a sentence under the gaze of the old butler.
"It's okay, it just so happens that the master hasn't eaten yet, and the young lady went just in time to have dinner with the master. The old butler said with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, Yu Manman nodded in agreement, then turned his head to Wang Ma and ordered:
"Steward Lin is right, I haven't eaten with my father for a long time. Mother Wang, you can eat for a while, don't wait for me. ”
Seeing this, Wang Ma didn't say anything more, lowered her head and replied respectfully:
"Yes, miss. ”
"Well, Steward Lin, let's go. Yu Manman left a sentence lightly, and then walked out slowly.
Before the old man of the housekeeper could react, he saw that Yu Manman only had a back left, and he hurriedly stepped forward to follow.
Cangwu Temple
In Yu Xinxun's dormitory, Yu Xinxun sat at the table with his eyebrows twisted, looking at the good food on the table and fell into deep thought.
Since Yu Feifei was accused of being the concubine of King Ping, many officials have shown favor to themselves, and they are also smooth sailing in the court.
Unexpectedly, the emperor issued another holy decree and gave Yu Manman as the crown prince and concubine, which made him a relative of the emperor all of a sudden.
Compared with Yu Feifei's side concubine, it is obvious that Yu Manman's position as the concubine of the East Palace is much more powerful, as long as the prince ascends the throne, then Yu Manman will be the justifiable queen, and he will become the national ruler.
Thinking of this, Yu Xinxun's eyes couldn't help but flash a hint of pride, but in an instant, there was a little sadness.
I have two daughters married into the royal family all of a sudden, which is a unique favor in the eyes of others, but this is also a big problem.
Because the prince and the king were born incompatible, they often compete in the court on weekdays, and the relationship between Yu Manman and Yu Feifei has not been good since childhood, and the prince and the king have each formed a faction.
Although Xuanyuan Haoling is the crown prince, he is the rightful heir to the throne. But the power of the Liu family behind Xuanyuan Haodi is huge, and Xuanyuan Haodi still has military achievements, and the voice behind him is no less than that of Xuanyuan Haoling.
And which faction to choose, this is the biggest question.
Now that the voice behind the crown prince and the king is equal, if he chooses the wrong direction, then I am afraid that the Taishou Mansion will be gone, and the status and identity that he has been thinking about for decades will also be gone.
One is the crown prince and the other is King Ping, Yu Xinxun suddenly fell into a dilemma.
Yu Xinxun suddenly felt that being a relative of the emperor was not so happy, especially since the two daughters were married to different royal children.
Fingers unconsciously tapped on the table, which was Yu Xinxun's habitual action when he encountered troubles.
"Knock knock" The door slammed, Yu Xinxun came back from his thoughts, and sat down in a deep voice:
"Come in. ”
The door was opened from the outside, and the old man of the housekeeper walked in respectfully, followed by a cold and indifferent Yu Manman.
"Master, the eldest lady is here. The old man said respectfully.
"Well, you should step back first. Yu Xinxun waved his hand.
"Yes, sir. The old butler saluted the two of them, then turned and walked out gently.
As soon as he saw Yu Manman coming in, Yu Xinxun hurriedly pulled out a smile, stood up and beckoned to Yu Manman:
"Man'er, you're here, come and dine with your father. ”
Yu Manman glanced at the table full of food, and then walked to Yu Manman with a faint expression and sat down, and said coldly:
"Daddy, why did you suddenly think of calling your daughter over to dine with you?"
Hearing this, Yu Xinxun glanced out of the dark window outside, and then said slowly:
"It's okay, I just thought that I hadn't eaten with you for a long time, and you would marry the prince soon, and it would be a rare opportunity for us to eat together again. ”
After hearing this, Yu Manman couldn't help but hook his lips and chuckle:
"Daddy, you are thinking too much, even if your daughter marries a wife in the future, it is also your daughter. As long as you ask, your daughter can come back and eat with you at any time. ”
Hearing this, Yu Xinxun was suddenly shocked, Yu Manman's attitude was much better than Yu Feifei's.
Since Yu Feifei was accused of being the concubine of King Ping, she began to get carried away.
And he followed her again and again, offering good food and drink every day, and even promised to take Yao Meier back to the house.
As a result, she was fueled by her arrogance, and she became less and less concerned about her father, and commanded her in the house. Before marrying into the Ping Palace, she took out the attitude of a princess.
Compared to Yu Manman, who was accused of being the crown prince and concubine, but was still respectful and polite to himself, it was simply not worth mentioning.
I can't help but regret a little for so many years, how I isolated this daughter in the north courtyard and allowed Yao Meier's mother and daughter to bully at will.
Thinking about it now, I couldn't help but sigh secretly, blaming myself for mistaking Yumu for a pearl.
Xu Wei, a woman she didn't like, gave birth to a good daughter for herself.
Yu Xinxun suddenly missed Xu Wei and the woman who was as elegant and delicate as a rose.
It's like the wife who has been ignored by herself since she entered the door, and now it's not so annoying.
However, I didn't hate Xu Wei originally, but I married her for the general's mansion behind her, but I didn't get the result I wanted at all, so I blamed her for everything.
made her bear the resentment that she couldn't ask for, and now that she thinks about it, Xu Wei is miserable after marrying her.
There is no husband who cares about her, there is no family to complain about, all this is for herself, and she treats her like this.
Yu Xinxun couldn't help but feel a trace of guilt in his heart, guilt for his deceased wife.
Suddenly came back to his senses, and saw Yu Manman's black and white, cold eyes looking at him, and he couldn't help but have a moment of sparkle.
Hurriedly lowered her head to avoid Yu Manman's gaze, but somehow, this daughter's eyes made her dare not look at each other, as if she was about to suck herself into a deep pool.
When the strange feeling in his mind disappeared, he raised his head and looked at Yu Manman with a loving face:
"Okay, good, Man'er, you're really Daddy's good daughter. ”
Hearing this, a trace of disdain flashed in Yu Manman's eyes, and it was fleeting.
