Chapter 264: Preparing for Marriage
Liu Mingyan looked at Shen Qingge quietly, as if he hadn't understood yet.
"If my sister is willing, you will live in Gu Mansion after going to Tiansheng, take care of everything in Gu Mansion, and let me have a maiden home in Tiansheng."
……
On the way back, because the Lantern Festival is approaching, the midwinter season does not look bleak, but the crowd is full of excitement.
Liu Mingyan lifted the corner of the curtain and looked at the dazzling street stalls, the smiling faces on her face that were so red from the cold that her nose was red, she gently leaned on the pillow. In the days when she didn't meet Shen Qinge, she was a golden hall and jade boudoir who didn't go out of the gate, and she was a model of the boudoir woman in Beiyuan Beijing. Shen Tingge sneered at her and said: It turns out that the ending of the boudoir model is to marry a half-old man as a continuation!
Shen Tingge said that a woman is a blooming flower in her twenties, and fifteen or sixteen is nothing, and her body has not developed well.
Shen Tingge is right, maybe if he leaves, his father will continue with confidence. When he goes to work so far away, there should always be someone around him who knows the warmth and coldness. If another son is born to him, it will be consummated.
Liu Mingyan gradually figured it out, and he actually had an anxious mood for his future life. She sent the girl next to her to tell Shen Tingge that as soon as the people arrived at Liu's Mansion, the people from Gu's Mansion arrived.
She recognized it as the guard who was following Shen Tingge.
"If Miss Liu wants to send a letter to Lord Liu, her subordinates can use the swift to pass the book, and it will arrive in an hour."
Liu Mingyan looked at a petite and cute little swallow on Tianwu's shoulder in surprise, nodded and entered the house to write a letter.
In the afternoon of the same day, the new emperor made an order.
The will said that Liu Mingyan has both ability and political integrity, pure filial piety and goodness, and is a model for women. Although these words sound euphemistic, everyone knows that it is to belittle the county lord of Zhuohua, and the emperor is afraid that the county lord will damage Beiyuan's face if he goes to Tiansheng in terms of female virtue, so he asked Liu Mingyan to accompany him and persuade him at all times.
Liu Mingyan couldn't calm down for a long time after receiving the order.
What is the origin that made Shen Tingge treat her like this.
She was intelligent enough to immediately understand the true purpose behind this decree and the benefits it could bring her.
In the eyes of others, it is a bit ridiculous that she is just a 'second-grade fate' and has no position, as if she went to Tiansheng and only married the dowry girl next to the county lord, but they didn't know that such a false position made her lose her relationship with the Beiyuan Imperial Court. In the future, her speech and demeanor had nothing to do with the imperial court.
Shen Tingge, if you treat me like this, I, Liu Mingyan, will treat me sincerely!
In Taoyaoju, Xu Wenyan was dressed in a white brocade robe, and in order to hide people's eyes, he wore a cloak and hat.
Shen Tingge felt that Xu Wenyan used to wear a white robe with wide robes and large sleeves, which made people feel that he was a suave talent, but when he changed into a formal brocade clothes, he still felt that he was a romantic talent.
"Why, don't you think I'm still good-looking!"
The slender phoenix eyes were raised, and a handsome face came over.
"Cut, a man looks good and can be eaten as a meal?"
Xu Wenyan immediately lowered his face, looked at Shen Tingge sadly, and said in an urn voice: "I forgot my relatives when I saw it, and said that we are family." ”
Shen Qingge glared at him with disdain, please, it's a bit of an emperor's appearance!
"Uncle Junior, can you believe it? I really don't like the position of emperor. ”
Shen Tingge finally woke up from her shock, she touched Xu Wenyan's head, very puzzled. In this world, there are still people who don't want to be emperors? If she is a female streamer, if she has the opportunity of Xu Wenyan, she is also willing to use this dragon chair at her fingertips.
With supreme rights, she is no longer afraid of being hurt, and she is no longer afraid that the people she cares about will be implicated because of herself. Sometimes, Shen Tingge would be taken aback by his sudden ambition.
"No wonder, with your talent and wisdom, how could you let the old emperor take power and override you. It turns out that it's not that you can't earn it, but you don't want to earn it at all. Yanchi, you must know that being a puppet emperor also has to pay a price. ”
"I want the throne to be filled by the capable. Although I have a strategy and a good understanding of politics, I have no intention. There is a world of difference between unintentionality and powerlessness. Since I was a child, my husband planted the seeds of hatred in my heart, and the master said that he had only one wish, which was to overthrow the Zhao regime with his own hands, so that he could see everything he cared about the most disappear. But now, the person I hated for more than 20 years turned out to be my father. Not only will I not be able to overthrow his regime, but I will help him inherit it. You may never think of the contradiction in my heart. It makes me feel ashamed of my husband and betrayed my husband. ”
For the first time, Xu Wenyan's cynical face showed a blank look.
"That-Yanchi, how did my senior brother tell you about your background?"
Xu Wenyan glanced at Shen Tingge, and then looked out the window, the branches of the kapok tree were all over the place, just like his heart.
"Twenty-five years ago, Xu Qian, the son of cloth, was suspected of being involved in the rebellion of King Liang, and someone impeached him for being old friends with King Liang, and the two still corresponded privately, and the emperor exterminated the nine clans in anger, and I was the only survivor."
"My brother said he saved you in your infancy?"
Xu Wenyan nodded at the irony that raised the corners of Shen Tingge's lips.
Shen Tingge suddenly felt a silt in her heart, she stood up, opened the window, and the cold wind blew in her face, but she didn't feel a trace of coldness.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Wenyan became more and more puzzled about Shen Tingge's reaction.
"It's nothing, it's just that all of a sudden I feel that hatred is really a terrible thing, it's like a raging fire, igniting itself, burning all the way. Anyone who approaches him will be mercilessly burned! ”
"That's why you chose to go to Tiansheng and promised Bailiyao? Scold! Uncle Xiaoshi, on this point, Yanchi still admires you. Let go when it's time to let go, decisively get out of the smoky past, and start again! ”
Shen Tingge turned around and looked at the facial features similar to the painting, and felt more concerned about Xu Wenyan in his heart.
When he knew that the person who called himself Mr. was actually his own father, he had planted hatred in his heart since he was a child, and Li Mo'er, whom he regarded as a relative, had told such a big lie, in the final analysis, they never thought that Xu Wenyan would be hurt, but just selfishly let him fulfill their wishes!
"Alright! We'll leave it at that. Yanchi, if you want to leave the Beiyuan Palace one day, I will always be your family! ”
Good.
Xu Wenyan smiled, and the deep affection in his eyes was like the jade belt river water drunk by the spring breeze, and the catkins were flying, which fascinated anyone's eyes.
In recent days, the Gu Mansion has been busy. Shen Zhiyuan's brothers brought their son and daughter-in-law to help, and Shen Tingge also acquiesced. Externally, it was just said that Gu Li went to prepare the dowry, and sent it directly to Tiansheng, and joined the pro-team at the junction. The people who heard the news not only sighed, but they couldn't see the dowry prepared by Gu Li, but it was a big loss.
People like Bao Inquiring took the lead in dispatching, just to see the dowry!
Shen Tingge's shop in Beiyuan Capital was closed down due to the opening of the Liufu Teahouse, and there was no property right except for Taoyaoju. But despite this, the dowry taken out by the Shen Mansion is also staggering, which makes people wonder if this Shen Mansion has turned out the entire family background.
