Chapter 149 Master Zhou proposes
Zhao Yao said: "Who?" β
Although Zhao Yao has just opened the mansion, but in the end, he is the prince, his status is noble, and ordinary people come to the door to ask for a meeting, he can not see it, just let the chief historian or housekeeper deal with it, and then the housekeeper will tell himself, obviously this person's status is relatively high, and he is not inappropriate. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Lord Zhou of the Earl's Mansion of Qing'an." Butler Road.
"Him?" Zhao Yao couldn't help but wonder, he had no relationship with his family, and the previous Pingwang Mansion didn't have much contact with each other, how could he come to him? It can't have anything to do with hibiscus, right? But that's not right, they shouldn't know about themselves and Hibiscus, right? Even if you know that it is related to hibiscus, it should be Master Zhou Tao on Tuesday who came to find him, how can it be Master Zhou?
The butler nodded and said, "Yes! said that he wanted to talk to the prince about something, but he thought that although the Earl's Mansion of Qing'an had declined, he was still noble, and it was a little inappropriate for Changshi to send him, so he came to report to the prince. β
"Hmm...... Then let him come over. Zhao Yao thought about it, but still planned to meet him.
When Master Zhou saw Zhao Yao, he smiled and said, "I've seen King Linjiang." β
Zhao Yao didn't have time or interest in talking nonsense with him, so he said bluntly: "I don't know what you have to do with me." β
Master Zhou didn't greet him at all, but asked directly, the smile on his face couldn't help but stiffen, and secretly said that this king of Linjiang County really doesn't understand the rules of hospitality at all, so he always has to say a few words, right? Asked like this, the disgusted face was too obvious, and when he thought that the king of Linjiang County disliked him, Master Zhou was naturally a little unhappy.
However, for the sake of marriage, I could only endure it, so I immediately regained my smile and said: "That's the case, a few days ago, I sent someone to the door and wanted to propose to the prince, but the prince has been busy, so the old man came in person today and wanted to mention this matter." β
In fact, there are very few parents who come to the door to say this kind of thing, usually through the matchmaker, so that even if it is not successful, the woman's parents will not feel embarrassed because they are rejected in person, so Master Zhou actually sent a matchmaker to the door at the beginning, but the next person could not be the master of the prince's marriage at all, but he proposed to see the prince and was rejected, and he couldn't see Zhao Yao at all. As a result, he didn't see anyone, what should he do with his relatives? Don't you plan to get married?
In fact, Master Zhou didn't know, it turned out that Zhao Yao was a prince at a young age, and he didn't know how many people came to propose marriage, wanting to marry his daughter to him, because he already had a wife candidate, he was annoyed by these harassments, so he directly ordered his subordinates not to notify themselves if anyone proposed marriage in the future, so this situation occurred.
Master Zhou didn't know the situation, there was no way, so he went to the door in person.
Zhao Yao heard him say that he was going to propose, thinking that he was really going to talk about hibiscus, right? Did he know so fast? However, his matter with Mu Hibiscus is almost ready, just wait for his future grandfather, King Changping County, to pass his application for marriage, then it will be fine, and he doesn't need to say this for Mu Hibiscus.
Because of doubt, Zhao Yao immediately asked, "Oh? Is it? I would like to hear about it. β
Seeing that Zhao Yao didn't directly refuse and sent him away, Master Zhou felt that there was a way to do this, so he touched his beard and said with a smile: "The old man and the third daughter, thirteen years old, have a long flower and moon appearance, and want to marry to the prince, but I don't know what the prince wants?" β
When Zhao Yao heard that Master Zhou was not mentioning hibiscus, but his daughter, he was immediately uninterested, and immediately said lightly: "I'm not interested." β
Master Zhou saw that Zhao Yao was obviously quite interested just now, and when he mentioned his third daughter, he was not interested in convenience at all, and he only thought that Zhao Yao cared about the background of Zhou Zhou Niang, so he laughed and said: "Does the prince care that she is a concubine?" β
Zhao Yao was noncommittal - in fact, in his opinion, as long as it was what he liked, of course he didn't care about the identity of the other party, but if it wasn't what he liked, it was for the sake of interest and marriage, the girl in the Earl of Qing'an's mansion, let alone a concubine, was a concubine, and he couldn't look down on it.
What's more, as far as he knows, his concubine is married to the eldest young master of the Earl's Mansion of Zhongyong, but the son of a mere viscount, and now he marries his concubine to him, why, do you think that he is not even as good as the son of the viscount, so he is only worthy of marrying a concubine? Zhao Yao didn't know what Master Zhou was thinking, how could he be embarrassed to make this request to himself and let him marry his concubine when his concubines were only married to a viscount's son. - Because Mu Hibiscus's real relatives are from the Earl's Mansion of Qing'an, he investigated the Earl's Mansion of Qing'an, and he was also more clear about the affairs of the Earl's Mansion of Qing'an.
Seeing that Zhao Yao was silent, Master Zhou thought that he was concerned about this, and immediately said: "Although she is a concubine, she is really beautiful, not me blowing, the third girl in the second room (he naturally refers to Aunt Bai's daughter Zhou Airu), although she is said to be the first beauty in the capital, but in fact, she often walks outside, so she has this reputation, if my third daughter also often walks outside, I am afraid that the name of this first beauty will be hers." β
Zhao Yao said secretly, not to mention that he likes hibiscus, so no matter how beautiful others are, it is not his dish, just say that Aunt Bai's daughter has also seen it at banquets before, and she is also the first beauty, not as beautiful as hibiscus at all! Hibiscus is really stunning, so what to blow it.
Because he was not interested in listening to Master Zhou anymore, Zhao Yao said at this time: "I said that I am not interested, I am not interested." In this way, I still have something to do, Lord Zhou, please take care of it. β
Master Zhou saw Zhao Yao drive him away, he was really angry, thinking about what Zhao Yao was doing, but he was an idle prince, if it was a prince, it would be just that, after all, the level of dignity, the official village and the county king are not at the same level at all, but what is the county king, there are not many people, there are not many official villages, and they are as depressed as their own family, what is the big deal, do you treat yourself like this!
Although the Zhou family is down, but Master Zhou is noble, glorious and rich, and he doesn't need to go to the court, so he has always lived a smooth life, and he hasn't been inferior to others, so at this time, seeing Zhao Yao like this to himself, he naturally can't bear it, so because he can't talk about it at the moment, he brushed his sleeves and left, and when he went back, he told Liuzhou Niang that Zhao Yao refused and the matter was not done.
Zhao Yao will refuse, which is also expected by Zhou Liuniang, because Zhao Yao did not marry a wife in the previous life, in fact, because Zhao Yao was named the king of the county at that time, it is naturally impossible for no one to propose marriage, obviously, they were also rejected by Zhao Yao, so it is normal for Zhao Yao to refuse his own proposal in this life.
Understanding is understanding, but this does not mean that she is willing to accept this result, so Zhou Zhou Niang begged Master Zhou to help her talk about it again, but Master Zhou was despised by Zhao Yao today, and he was angry in his heart, and he was unhappy at the moment: "You want to go by yourself, anyway, I won't go, I'll say something for you today, but that guy is too empty!" I don't put being a father in my eyes at all, such a son-in-law, no matter how good it is, I am not uncommon! β
Saturday Niang saw that Master Zhou was reluctant to go because of Zhao Yao's bad attitude, and couldn't help but be anxious, thinking that you want to know that he will be the emperor in the future, so I don't care about his attitude, after all, which emperor's attitude is good, and then I am afraid that I will be willing to say anything, after all, our Zhou family just wants to marry their daughter to the palace? But if it's not the queen, just a concubine, you can only wait to give birth to a prince, wait for that prince to become the emperor, and become the queen mother, and then there will be a chance to bring further opportunities to the Zhou family, but that has to wait until the year of the monkey, and there are too many variables, and the chance of success is too small, but it is different to be the queen, the queen's mother will be able to be a marquis immediately, and when she becomes the queen mother, she will go further to the prince, whether there are children or not, it will not affect this title, and the concubine only has a son who becomes the emperor and is promoted to the queen mother, so there is such glory, It's much less difficult, and now there is such an opportunity in front of you, why don't you fight for it?
It's just that she can't say that she knows that Zhao Yao will become an emperor in the future, so she can only be in a hurry.
Thinking at the moment, since Master Zhou can't do it, then she will try to take the path of Mrs. Zhou, who was not hopeful, if Mrs. Zhou can't do it, then she will go on her own, anyway, this princess, she is done.
Just do it, and when she went to find Mrs. Zhou, she saw that Mrs. Zhou was talking to the second daughter who was going back to her mother's house, that is, Grandma Li, to discuss the invitation to Changping Wangfu and invite people to participate in the banquet of Zhou Mujin and Jinfeng County Lord.
Grandma Li wanted to go home and tell her mother about it because she heard that Mu Hibiscus was her cousin and was named the county lord, but she didn't expect that as soon as she came back, she ran into the Changping Palace's invitation to her mother's family.
Also, the Zhou family and the Changping Royal Mansion are in-laws, and now the hibiscus is the child of the second room, and now the Changping Royal Mansion is holding a celebration banquet, it is impossible not to invite the immediate relatives of the hibiscus.
"Mu Hibiscus is a person from our house, and now that she is the county lord, she should be set up by our house, why don't you take it back, but let the Changping Mansion put it for her?" Grandma Li asked incomprehensibly.
Mrs. Zhou sighed and said, "This is not because the holy decree was sent to the Changping Palace, that is to say, this happy event happened in the Changping Palace, so the Changping Palace wants to hold a banquet, and your uncle can't say no." β
In fact, she wants to do it in her own house, so that she can make a lot of money by receiving red envelopes, after all, for the sake of hibiscus is the granddaughter of the prince of Changping, there must be many people who come, and when the red envelopes are collected, she can receive soft hands, and a banquet is held, she is going to send it, but everyone knows that the uncle is a humble gentleman, since the Changping palace said that they want to do it, the invitations have been dispersed, and the uncle can no longer slap his face, saying that they are not allowed to do it, let them take back the invitation, so it can only be done.
Speaking of Changping Palace, it is really treacherous, it is even cut first and then played, if it weren't for the invitations all dispersed, the uncle said that he couldn't say anything about running the Changping Mansion in the Zhou family, and now that the invitations are scattered, there is no way to mention it again.
"This hibiscus, his life is really good, and he can be named the county lord." Grandma Li said jealously.
In the past, when she was in the Earl's Mansion of Zhongyong, Hibiscus was just a subordinate, a character she could call and drink, but now it's good, she has become her cousin, and she has been named the county lord, which is really infuriating.
It's no wonder that Grandma Li is so angry, I heard that Mu Hibiscus is going to marry Wei Xuan, and when she may become a Duchess of the Kingdom in the future, she was jealous that she could have such a future, so she made trouble from it, and then Wei Xuan finally retired, she was very happy for a while, and she had followed others to ridicule Mu Hibiscus A sparrow wanted to climb the high branch and become a phoenix, but people really don't have to climb, people were originally phoenixes, but they used to be bullied by dogs in Pingyang, and now the phoenix has returned to the nest, and there is such a powerful grandparents who don't count, has also become the county lord, isn't he going to be angry?
As a result, I heard Mrs. Zhou say in a low voice: "No, the fate is really good, the foreign family is so powerful, forget it if you are the county lord, I heard that the king of Linjiang County still wants to marry her." β
Saturday Niang, who originally came in, didn't dare to disturb the conversation between her mother and sister-in-law, so she was obediently staying aside, in front of the wallflowers, quietly listening to Mrs. Zhou and Grandma Li talking about hibiscus, ready to wait for them to talk, and then mention their own affairs, at this time I heard them say that they heard such a gossip, I couldn't help but be shocked, I didn't care about my mother and sister-in-law's dislike of me, and hurriedly interjected: "Is this true?" The king of Linjiang wants to marry hibiscus? β
How is it possible, hasn't the king of Linjiang County never married a wife, or later became an emperor, and he didn't even set up a queen, why did he marry hibiscus at this time?
Grandma Li was about to ask, but at this time, she was interjected by Liuniang, and couldn't help glaring at her, and then said, "Yes, how is this possible?" Didn't the king of Linjiang County hear that no one had agreed to propose marriage, why did he want to marry Hibiscus? Besides, the hibiscus has withdrawn from the family, won't the prince care? β
Even Zheng Xiuxiu of the Chengen Mansion didn't want itβthis was what she heard when her sister-in-law Li Xin told Mrs. Liβwould she want hibiscus? Anyway, although the Chengen Mansion and the Changping Mansion are both in full swing, one is his own family and the other is a foreign family, which is still different, right? Hibiscus is still worse than Zheng Xiuxiu's conditions, right?
At that time, in the Earl's Mansion of Zhongyong, when Hibiscus was about to leave the mansion, he was taken to the mansion by the king of Linjiang County to play for a while, but everyone never thought about this aspect at that time, without him, the main reason is that Hibiscus's status is too low, who thinks she will become a princess It would be strange, besides, at that time, Mu Hibiscus was engaged to Wei Xuan, and it was impossible to marry the king of Linjiang County again, so it was normal for Grandma Li not to expect this out.
Mrs. Zhou sighed and said, "Who knows what's going on, anyway, I heard that's what happened." β
Grandma Li rolled her eyes and said, "That'...... Can Aunt Bai agree to this family business? β
