Chapter 492: Coming
After settling the matter of the princess Zeng's family, the old concubine Xue said to Princess Guojun again: "The last incident will definitely make the Meng family dissatisfied, you can prepare a generous gift and apologize." ”
"This ......" Princess Guojun looked embarrassed, and asked her to come to the door to apologize, how could she pull this face, besides, she didn't think she was at fault, although this matter had the Zeng family distorting the facts, but it didn't mean that everything was fake, and the kid from the Meng family might not be following his daughter.
"If you don't want to, forget it. Old Concubine Xue closed her eyes tiredly, "Hengzhi is your own daughter, the two families are about to form a family, what is it, it is your own daughter who is wronged." ”
"The old lady taught me that the daughter-in-law will go later. "Princess Guojun thinks of her daughter, for her daughter, it is worth being wronged for a while, besides, the current Meng family is not the Meng family of the day, their family is now thriving, maybe there will be something to borrow in the future, so don't complain.
Old Concubine Xue nodded.
Princess Guojun returned to her courtyard and was about to tell King Guojun about Zeng's affairs, and by the way, let King Guojun persuade the prince not to worry about Zeng all day long.
When she returned to the room, she saw that King Guojun was in a hurry, sorting out her clothes, she couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Lord Wang, where are you going?"
King Guojun commanded the maid to pack a few pieces of clothes into the box, and said: "Dajing has an envoy to bless, and the saint asked me to go to the border to greet me for the sake of grandeur." ”
"Aren't Da Zhou and Da Jing incompatible? How could there be envoys coming? And let the prince personally pick him up? Who is it?" Princess Guojun was a little puzzled.
"What are you doing with so many questions?" said King Guojun, who was not in a very good mood, and was a little impatient. "Women should take care of the affairs of the court, lest they go out and chew the root of their tongues. ”
Princess Guojun was just reprimanded by Old Concubine Xue, and was said so by King Guojun, and she was even more aggrieved in her heart, she wanted to tell King Guojun about Zeng's affairs, but seeing King Guojun like this, it seems that she is not in the mood to listen to these trivial matters in the inner house, so she simply doesn't say it, anyway, Old Concubine Xue is in charge. What will happen in the future. I can't complain about her, but I can't say nothing, lest the king of the county say that he doesn't care about him. Then he asked again, "How many days is the prince going?" I'll prepare for tomorrow. ”
King Guojun said: "As little as half a month." It will be a month at most, and it will depend on the envoy, if he is slow. We can't rush either. ”
With that, King Guojun packed up everything and hurriedly went out again, with a lot of things to prepare.
King Guojun was not in the house, Princess Guojun ignored Zeng's crying, and took advantage of the opportunity of the prince to send King Guojun out, tied up Zeng, sent him to the carriage, and sent him to the nunnery of his hometown in the countryside, and ordered a few strong grandmothers to guard it, so as not to let Zeng have the opportunity to escape back and entangle the prince.
After that, he ordered someone to prepare a generous gift and came to the Meng family.
When Mrs. Meng heard that Princess Guojun was visiting, she naturally didn't dare to slack off, but she didn't know the intention of Princess Guojun, and it happened that Mrs. Quan Si also came to visit the door at this time, and it was not good to ask Mrs. Quan Si to avoid it immediately, thinking that Mrs. Quan Si and Princess Guojun also knew each other, and could talk well, with her on the side, talking to Princess Guojun, the atmosphere was not easy to be embarrassed.
After Princess Guojun came, she didn't mention anything serious, just said that she would come to the door.
Although Mrs. Meng didn't believe that Princess Guojun would come to the door if she had nothing to do, but Princess Guojun said so, it was not good to ask too bluntly, plus the matter of the family last time, she was a little taboo about Princess Guojun, since Princess Guojun didn't take the initiative to say it, she didn't want to be troublesome, and the three women gossiped together.
During the banquet, when talking about the affairs of the house, Princess Guojun mentioned that the king of Guojun had gone to greet the envoys of Dajing.
Although King Guojun said that he would not let Princess Guojun talk nonsense everywhere, this matter is not a secret matter, and it doesn't hurt to mention a few words casually.
Saying this, Mrs. Meng was a little curious, and asked casually, "Is it the envoy from Dajing?"
"Naturally, he is an envoy of the Dajing royal family. Princess Guojun was secretly a little disdainful when she answered, as a royal family, she was very taboo about those unorthodox forces, in her opinion, the other two forces in Dajing were all chaotic ministers and thieves.
And for Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Quansi, as long as they are from Dajinglai, they are all the same, but for Mrs. Meng, this is good news, since there is an envoy visiting, it means that the relationship between the two countries has eased, and for their military generals, men do not have to go to the battlefield, that is good news.
Although Meng Ye is no longer a general, but her two sons are still training in the military camp, she is worried all day long, let Meng also find a way to get his son out of the military camp, ready to study or donate an official in the future, this matter was mentioned, but was reprimanded by Meng Ye, he is more a martial artist, although he is now mixing well in the temple, but after all, there are still shortcomings in his heart.
He hopes that his son can make up for this shortcoming, become a general again, and go down in history.
Mrs. Meng couldn't persuade Meng Ye, and worried about her son all day long, for fear that as soon as the war broke out, her son would go to the battlefield.
Now the news brought by Princess Guojun is really good news for her, and suddenly, her smile is much more sincere, and she can't help but ask a few more questions.
Princess Guojun didn't know much, and she was not interested in this matter.
It was Mrs. Quan, who suddenly interjected: "I heard about this a few days ago, I heard that the merchant met the envoy team, and brought a lot of things, and the long queue, I always thought it was a random rumor, but I didn't expect it to be true." ”
"Oh, is it, what the merchants say?" said Mrs. Meng, who was interested again, turned her head and asked Mrs. Quan.
Mrs. Quan Si thought for a while and said: "I heard that the leader is a marquis of Dajing, who is quite young, what is the name of Yongxiang Hou, there are women in the team, I don't know if there will be a princess who is kind." ”
Princess Guojun said: "No, there is no princess of the Dajing royal family anymore, and there is no unmarried prince in my dynasty, how can I get married?"
"How many golden branches and jade leaves are there in these dynasties, and they are probably just the daughters of ordinary clan girls or palace ministers. Mrs. Meng saw that Princess Guojun's posture was a little high, and she seemed to look down on them, so she said casually. It's not interesting, it's just to suppress the arrogance of Princess Guojun.
"Then there has to be a suitable candidate, always pull out someone to marry, what's the point of this and kiss?" Princess Guojun was a little impatient, and always felt that Mrs. Meng was a little ignorant.
Mrs. Meng said lightly: "Or can it be sent to the harem?"
"I am facing the harem and forbidding foreign women to enter. "Princess Guojun really thinks that Madame Meng is ignorant and shallow.
Mrs. Meng was dissatisfied with King Guojun for a long time, and said, "Is there such a rule? Isn't Princess Xiangshan also a foreigner, married to the sixth prince, and has lived in the harem for a long time?"
"That's different, the holy harem is different from the inner courtyard of the prince. The impatience on Princess Guojun's face was even worse.
"Oh. I remember. It seems that I also heard from the businessman that this Dajing Yongxiang Marquis is still related to the prince Ding. Mrs. Quan Si saw that these two women were not speculative, and the more she spoke, the more stiff she became. Hurriedly made an excuse. Divert the topic.
"What's the pro?"
Princess Guojun and Madame Meng asked in unison. As soon as the words came out, both of them looked a little embarrassed.
Mrs. Quan Si thought for a while and said, "I also heard about it, but I don't know if it's true or not." I heard that the wife of the Marquis of Yongxiang and the first princess of King Ding, that is, the former county lord of Dajing, were sisters...... By the way, according to this view, maybe the female dependents brought by the Marquis of Yongxiang are his wives? After all, he is related to King Ding. ”
When Mrs. Meng heard this, she immediately frowned.
As Xiaofu's mother-in-law, she always felt that this matter was a little bad, although the first princess of King Ding's previous had been missing for many years, but this really had to come out of a wife and sister, and when she came to King Ding's mansion, Xiaofu must be a little embarrassed.
Princess Guojun obviously thought of it, and said with some schadenfreude: "If you want to say that, maybe the first princess of Prince Ding is in the convoy?" I heard that this princess was just missing back then, and King Ding also offered a lot of money to look for it for a while, and she has never seen anyone alive or dead, and this time she can't find anyone, so she sent it back. ”
Mrs. Meng's face suddenly changed.
Princess Guojun may just be talking nonsense, but this possibility cannot be ruled out. If this is the case, what should Xiaofu do? Isn't Xiaofu's position embarrassing?
Thinking of this, she was a little restless.
Princess Guojun achieved her goal, and suddenly remembered the purpose of this trip, and secretly regretted it, why did she forget the purpose of this trip? She was not here to find trouble, so she quickly diverted the topic and remedied.
At this time, Mrs. Meng was still in the mood to listen to what Princess Guojun said, and dealt with it randomly, and then it was all up to Mrs. Quan to enliven the atmosphere.
It's easy to wait until Princess Guojun is gone.
Mrs. Meng pulled Mrs. Quan Si and asked carefully, about the rumors about the Marquis of Yongxiang, but unfortunately Mrs. Quan Si didn't know much, it was all hearsay, but according to those descriptions, it was really a little bad, who was the female dependents in the envoy group, or if it was really what the princess of the county said, it was not certain.
As soon as she thought of this possibility, Mrs. Meng became anxious, sent Mrs. Quan away, and immediately ordered someone to prepare a car and rush to Dingwang's Mansion.
Dingwang's mansion.
Su Yiqing listened to Mrs. Meng's speculation.
The teacup in his hand suddenly couldn't hold it, so it fell to the ground and shattered.
Yongxiang Hou Mansion, that is the Xu family's maiden family, her eldest sister Su Yirong married into the past, and at the same time, there is another existence that makes her afraid, Mrs. Zhou.
Xin'er's matter, she has been deceiving herself, telling herself that the matter has passed, she already has another identity, she is no longer the Su Yiqing of the past, she is Meng Xiaofu, and everything starts again.
But that was just a moment of self-deception, and she didn't think about it, what was the purpose of Mrs. Zhou taking so much trouble to change her new identity?
Xin'er was killed by the people of the Lian Wind Sect, and she told herself that this matter was over, and for the things that could not be controlled, forget about the past, and don't think about it again.
Since then, no one has been looking for her, so she just thinks that nothing will happen, and she is only worried about some things in the Dingwang Mansion, as well as about Lian Yufeng.
She has always deliberately avoided everything in Dajing, don't think of Mrs. Zhou anymore, and sometimes she can't help but think that Mrs. Zhou is also old, old man, maybe there is a tribulation, maybe she can't take care of things at all.
The Yongxiang Hou Mansion is a powerful person for Mrs. Zhou, if there is anything to Mrs. Zhou, the eldest sister Su Yirong is certainly capable, but it has nothing to do with her, and she will not come to trouble her for no reason.
But now her idea of self-deception no longer worked.
If it is really the Marquis of Yongxiang, I heard that it is a young man, then it can only be Su Yirong's husband, and the female dependent in the carriage is Su Yirong.
There are so many princes and ministers in Dajing, why did they choose the Marquis of Yongxiang to be the envoy? Xu Zhe, the Marquis of Yongxiang, had the impression that he was a cowardly and incompetent man, and he could not afford such a heavy task at all.
Maybe it has something to do with her, it must be Mrs. Zhou, who asked the Yongxianghou couple to come.
came to her, and worked hard to make her change her identity and become the princess again, Mrs. Zhou must have some purpose, and now is the time to ask for returns.
What should she do? Let them come to the door and make demands?
Why didn't even Yu Feng remind her? Even the outside knew the identity of the envoy, it was impossible for the people in the Dingwang Mansion not to know, why didn't anyone tell her?
Su Yiqing was a little puzzled.
Is it deliberately concealed by Yufeng?
Or is there something else?
"Xiaofu, Xiaofu, what's wrong with you?" Mrs. Meng looked at Su Yiqing worriedly.
I always felt that this concubine was very courageous and not surprised, but this time, I think the stimulation to her was too great, so that she lost her temper.
It's no wonder, Xiaofu is filling the house, if the original match appears, her identity will be embarrassing, if the county lord is really coming, how should Xiaofu be good?
If this is not good, Xiaofu will become ......
Mrs. Meng didn't dare to think about it, it was hard to imagine how to deal with herself if Xiaofu became a concubine, which was also related to their Meng family, and many things would be affected.
Xiaofu has always been so arrogant, how can he be low?
But I heard that King Ding and the previous county lord also had a good relationship, and Mrs. Quan Si inquired about the news, after the county lord disappeared, King Ding also offered a heavy reward, and looked for it for a long time, but then he really couldn't find it, so he gave up and came back.
Even if the relationship between Wang Ye and Xiaofu is good now, mixed with such a wife, how can these three people get along?
The more Mrs. Meng thought about it, the worse it became, and she was very worried about Su Yiqing.
Su Yiqing eased her emotions, in front of Mrs. Meng, she didn't show too much, restrained herself from losing her temper, and said after a long time: "Mother is too worried, this is just some of your speculations, how can someone who couldn't be found with so much effort back then appear again?"
"Xiaofu, I hope not, but if you're not afraid of 10,000, you're afraid of what if, if you really have a case, you should prepare early. When Mrs. Meng saw Su Yiqing's gaffe, she felt even more uneasy in her heart. (To be continued......)
