Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Marquis of Weiyuan's Mansion

Since Yuwen Zhao ascended the throne, the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion has become more and more popular in the capital of the Great Zhou. Because the old marquis and the old marquis are still alive, they have not separated, and the several rooms of Pei's mansion in Beijing all live in the Weiyuan marquis's mansion.

The Mansion of the Marquis of Weiyuan is the founding noble, and the mansion covers a very large area, which used to occupy almost half of the entire Hutong.

More than ten years ago, Pei Tingyan sealed the Marquis of Wuning, and the second room lord was named Chengenhou more than a year ago because his daughter became the queen.

Last night's heavy rainstorm finally stopped in the early hours of the morning, and the bright morning light seemed to gild the entire capital. But the people of the capital did not care to enjoy the coolness after the rain, because the rain was so heavy that all the lower places were flooded by the rain.

The terrain of Weiyuanhou Hutong is slightly higher than the surroundings, and there is a large artificial lake in the house, which is very conducive to drainage, so it was washed by heavy rain overnight, and even the water was very little, but the bluestone pavement inside and outside the house was exceptionally clean and refreshing.

Mama Zheng, who was scared last night and was drenched in cold sweat, didn't dare to hold it up today, and the palace door opened early in the morning, and she took a few palace maids out of the palace.

The thoroughfares in Kyori are smooth, wide, and drained smoothly, and not only are they not flooded, but the roads are almost dry. But some slightly remote roads are not at all, the road is crowded with the officials who command the drainage and the people who are busy working, the carriage in the palace is wide and large, and it is very inconvenient to drive, until the time has passed before Mama Zheng arrives at the Weiyuan Marquis's Mansion.

Mama Zheng was originally the son of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion, she was born and raised in this mansion since she was a child, and she is very familiar with every qiē in the mansion. Although she is now a grandmother in the palace, and she was ordered by the queen to pick up the little princess, she still had to go to greet the former master, Mrs. Laohou.

Mrs. Yang has long been past the age of the old marquis, although she is still in good spirits, in the early years she handed over the middle feed in the house to the wife of the prince Xiao Yang, and she herself has long lived a comfortable life of letting her granddaughters and great-granddaughters talk with her to relieve boredom, or wiping dominoes with a few old grandmothers to pass the time.

Since the second room has become more and more powerful, the situation inside the Hou Mansion has become a little different. Although the rule of the Hou Mansion is that the parents do not separate the family, in order to avoid conflicts within the family, the old Yang family divided the affairs of the second room and let the second room take charge of it.

The second master Cheng Enhou's current wife was originally a step-room, and her cowardly personality was never a person who could stand up, and the middle feed of the second room was all handed over to Mrs. Wu Ninghou Gu Xi.

Because the mourning period of the Emperor Taishang has not passed, the major mansions in Beijing have stopped gathering and feasting, and every household is living quietly behind closed doors, and the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, as the queen's maiden family, is even more cautious in such a special period.

Mama Zheng took the two palace maids all the way, only to see that the Hou Mansion was indeed in line with the etiquette everywhere, the colorful decorations had long been removed, there were no birds and birds chirping, and the people were all doing things quietly, and they also came to the Fuze Hall, the main courtyard where the old Yang family lived.

The Fuze Hall was also very quiet, and several mothers-in-law and Mama Zheng who were in charge of the doorkeeper were old acquaintances, and they came to greet her one after another.

As soon as Mama Zheng helped a few people up, there was a faint cry of a girl in the main room, followed by a kind and elderly voice coaxing the girl softly.

These two voices are very familiar to Mama Zheng, the old one is the old Hou lady Yang, and the girl is Gu Xi's daughter Pei Jinxin, the lord of Ruijia.

Mama Zheng was very suspicious in her heart, who didn't know that the little county lord was not only deeply favored by the queen's mother, but also liked her very much today, who was so bold that she dared to make her so sad?

She pulled a mother-in-law and whispered, "What's wrong with the little county lord today?"

The woman secretly pointed to the west, which was where the second room of the Hou Mansion lived, and she lowered her voice and said: "The little county lord was reprimanded by Mrs. Hou to cry early in the morning, and we don't dare to inquire about the specific purpose." ”

The Mrs. Hou she said will naturally not be Mrs. Chengenhou, but Mrs. Wuning Hou Gu Xi, the reason why the little county lord was trained must be clear when they stood here and listened for a long time, but no one dared to say the rights and wrongs of the masters behind their backs.

How could Mama Zheng not know their thoughts, and nodded lightly: "Then I'll go first to see the old lady." ”

Empress Pei's father, Cheng Enhou, was a noble son who did not learn or know, and in the words of Lao Wei Yuanhou, "I have lived for fifty years, and I have lived for half a lifetime." ”

Fortunately, he is not the eldest son and does not need to inherit the family business, and he is not a big trouble, otherwise he would have been kicked out of the house by Lao Weiyuan.

Because he didn't grow up, in the past, their second room basically had no status in the Hou Mansion, Pei Tingyan is a boy, it's good to say, he moved to the outer courtyard at a very young age, and Lao Wei Yuanhou personally supervised his study and martial arts. Pei Tingyu, a girl, is miserable, her father is not angry, her mother went early, and the only luck is that her stepmother is weak and incompetent, and she doesn't have the ability to grind her.

Pei Tingyu, who has no one to rely on in the inner house, can only be strong by herself, and she has a tough appearance, how can the old Yang family, who is used to seeing her granddaughters like delicate nephrite all day long, still think of her?

As the old saying goes, thirty years in Hexi and thirty years in Hedong. Who would have thought that the second master of the old man Pei had a national father-in-law, his cautious and decent eldest brother was over half a hundred years old and was only a prince of the Hou Mansion, and he had already become the old man of His Majesty today, the marquis of grace.

Old Wei Yuanhou has always cared about the affairs of the inner house, and he needs to think more about the happiness of the mother of a country. Lao Yang regretted it, her granddaughter, who she couldn't like at the beginning, was just married to a prince who was not favored, and finally sat on the throne of the queen!

However, let her regret her intestines, the past will not happen again, and the old Yang family can only make up for the debt to Queen Pei back then on her favorite Pei Jinxin.

Mama Zheng followed the big girl who led the way and slowly walked into the old lady's main house, only to see the gray-haired old Yang holding Pei Jinxin in his arms, still patiently coaxing in his mouth.

Seeing this situation, Mama Zheng couldn't help but feel a little sour in her heart, she was Queen Pei's nurse, and she saw how much her master had been wronged in the Hou Mansion. The little county lord also has a "handsome" face that is almost exactly the same as that of Marquis Wu Ning, how can the old lady know that she is distressed now? It can be seen that no matter how big or small people are, they have the same mind to worship the high and step on the low.

But no matter what she thought in her heart, she could only bow respectfully to the old Yang family: "The slave has seen the old lady, and the old lady is fine." ”
