Chapter 48: The Great Wedding (1)

After Meng Yingqi respectfully sent the father-in-law surnamed Song away, he could have time to go to his mother's side to say goodbye. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Listening to Meng Yingqi truthfully talk about the experience in the palace and the real reason why she entered the palace, Mrs. Meng raised a question: "Yingqi, how do you plan to arrange Mingzhu?" ”

Hearing her mention Fang Mingzhu, Meng Yingqi was silent. This second wife, on the second day of their wedding, he left her. Looking at the affectionate attitude of her mother and An Niang, you know that this woman is a good woman. It's just that this woman, how should I arrange her? They haven't done the courtesy of Duke Zhou, but he is going to marry the princess, and he may have to stay in the princess's mansion in the future. This woman may have to stay alone in the empty room.

The two of them, strictly speaking, are actually two strangers. For her, in fact, he is not as familiar with Princess Fengyi.

Tonight, I obeyed my mother's arrangement and completed the previous etiquette with her? Meng Yingqi was a little hesitant. It stands to reason that he could and should have done so. But he just didn't want to do it, because he felt that it was too unfair to her!

Over there, in the new house, Fang Mingzhu was also worried. She is still perfect, and Princess Fengyi on the other side is waiting for Shang Yuma! As a woman, she only has two choices, either to have a round house with Meng Yingqi while the princess has not yet married, in order to have a son and a half daughter, which can not only stabilize her position, but also avoid the emptiness of her knees. Or, the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha will live a lifetime and ignore the disputes of the world.

However, the handkerchief in her arms reminded her that in this life, she could not live a stable life, and she had to take back those things that belonged to her and the glory that belonged to her parents!

To do all this, she must learn to endure and learn to plan. She had to have a good talk with Meng Yingqi to understand the current situation in the outside world.

When Meng Yingqi returned to the room, he saw that the dim lights in the main hall were becoming more and more hazy in the misty night rain. Fang Mingzhu was sitting under the lamp, focusing on embroidery. On the pale pink satin, the tender green needlework outlines a small pattern. It can be seen that what she made with her own hands should be the clothes for An Niang. His heart couldn't help but warm. I was even more disgusted by my mother's proposal.

Such a virtuous and virtuous woman, she deserves to be cherished by better people. You can't be too selfish. When he was thinking like this, Meng Yingqi heard his voice suddenly sound: "It's so late, haven't you slept yet?" Needlework under the lamp is sad! ”

Fang Mingzhu looked at his slightly embarrassed expression, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably. Tonight, it doesn't seem like anything she'd been worried about will happen.

"Sit down! Drink a little hot water first to warm your hands! Naturally, she put down her embroidery work and made a bowl of hot water herself and handed it to him.

The heat in the room and the hot steam of the hot water were intertwined, making Meng Yingqi sneeze involuntarily.

He was a little embarrassed, took out a handkerchief, wiped it indiscriminately, and stuffed it into his arms again. Fang Cai sat down with some restraint. glanced at Fang Mingzhu, and saw that she was still looking at herself with a smile and kindness, and couldn't help but secretly blame herself for being weak at the moment.

After taking a sip of water and clearing his throat, he mustered up the courage to speak: "Mingzhu, there is one thing I have already thought about, in short, this matter is that I am sorry for you, let's leave!" You take all your dowry with you, and I'll give you another thousand taels of silver!" You can find another good person to live a good life! ”

Fang Mingzhu felt a bang in his head, and the whole person was completely blinded by the harmony he said. What does he mean by that? Did he actually mean what Princess Fengyi meant? On the surface, he said that he didn't rob her father-in-law, but secretly he asked Meng Yingqi to come back and reconcile with her?

She is just a concubine of the Fang Mansion, and she has never been taken seriously. If she leaves, I'm afraid that Mrs. Fang's Jiang family may not accept her!

Moreover, with her identity as a divorced woman, where can she find a good marriage? What's more, at present, she needs the identity of this Fang Mingzhu Meng's wife, because with the identity of this official wife, it is convenient for her to act. If she leaves, it should be much more difficult for her to do what she wanted to do before!

Seeing Fang Mingzhu's instantly pale face, Meng Yingqi felt even more uneasy, and he tried to explain, hoping that Fang Mingzhu could understand what he meant. "Mingzhu, it's not that you're bad, it's that I think you're too good and I'm not worthy. We don't have a husband and wife now, and it's still too late. I won't let you be wronged! In fact, I know that I have wronged you! However, in the future, if the princess enters the door, I am afraid that you will be even more sad. Because of Princess Fengyi, she is really arrogant. I'm afraid she'll be bad for you then. Instead of letting you suffer all kinds of grievances and troubles in the future, it is better for me to write a letter to let you go back to freedom. ”

Meng Yingqi's sincere tone made Fang Mingzhu slowly calm down, she lowered her head and savored what Meng Yingqi said, and finally came to a conclusion, Meng Yingqi wanted to reconcile with her, at least the starting point was good. He really thought that he was good for himself, so he made this suggestion.

It's just that he is well-intentioned, but he is unrealistic, and he does not understand his real situation. However, he really doesn't seem to know himself. Except for a marriage contract, aren't the two of them still like strangers?

In his eyes, he is a noble prime minister's daughter, and he has a seemingly rich dowry. If they reconcile and leave, he will be spurned by the world for coveting wealth and power, but she will only get the sympathy of the world. After all, in the eyes of people who don't know the truth, she was indeed abandoned by him. And in this era when scholars pay the most attention to morality, Meng Yingqi is tantamount to ruining his future by doing this.

Thinking of this, Fang Mingzhu's mood slowly stabilized, and the eyes that looked at Meng Yingqi were no longer sharp. Under the light, Meng Yingqi seemed a little at a loss, he saw Fang Mingzhu's reaction, and suddenly realized that he had actually done something stupid. Even if it is his own proposal for peace, but in the eyes of outsiders, especially in the eyes of the emperor and the queen mother, I am afraid that Fang Mingzhu will be blamed, right? The first thing they would consider must be that Fang Mingzhu was not generous enough and refused to serve the two daughters together, so they would react like this. And if a woman is considered jealous, then what good end does she have? It's still too inconsiderate for myself.

"Otherwise,......"

"This thing must be ......"

The two men spoke almost at the same time, and then shut up together, waiting for the other to continue.

"Mingzhu, you say it first." Meng Yingqi wanted to know Fang Mingzhu's true thoughts, so he chose to take a step back.

"We still think about it in the long run. Even if what you say is really for my good, I have to go back and ask my father before I can make a decision. What's more, my family has never had a second married daughter to this day, and if I get married, I'm afraid that I will go to the house immediately. Fang Mingzhu said very calmly, but Meng Yingqi felt even more ashamed when he heard it.

It's too simple for me to think. Although it was a good intention, I was afraid that it had already made Fang Mingzhu sad. Hearing her mention the monkhood, it reminded him of his wife, Mei's monkhood, which was the biggest pain in his life. If the Fang family became a monk again, then he would really feel guilty for the rest of his life.

He looked at Fang Mingzhu as if he was a little crying, and he blamed himself even more. In a hurry, he said to her, "Don't leave home!" This incident itself is my fault! Don't worry, since you have married me, you are my wife. I won't let anyone hurt you! As long as you don't dislike it, I will try my best to be a good husband! Princess Fengyi, I will definitely find a way! ”

Hearing him say this, Fang Mingzhu suddenly felt a warm current surging up in his heart. Growing up so big, I always find my own way when I encounter things. No one has ever really cared about their own joys and angers, their own feelings. The man in front of her, although he was not very familiar with her, gave her a sense of peace of mind for the first time! Yes, whatever he said, he was actually thinking about her. Putting aside the composition of male and female ****, this man is really good!

Fang Mingzhu suddenly felt that God was actually not thin on herself, at least, the man she met was a rare person with responsibility and conscience!

She said in a voice that only she could hear: "I don't dislike you, Xianggong." With that, his head was already lowered deeply.

The night was silent, and Meng Yingqi heard what she whispered. I just feel shocked, this girl is really good. When she got married before, she saw the embarrassing situation in her family, but instead of complaining or having the slightest hint of the daughter's shelf, she treated her mother and daughter An Niang very kindly.

Now that she is about to marry the princess, her status has been threatened like never before, and there are many unknown troubles, but she still does not abandon herself. I didn't complain to myself at all because of my difficult situation.

How lucky are you to meet such a kind girl? Although at present, Meng Yingqi knows that he has no love for this girl, but in his heart, he has secretly sworn that he will never let down this good girl.

Both of them were immersed in their own thoughts, unaware of the passage of time.

At night, there was a distant sound of bangs outside the window, reminding the two under the lamp that it was not early. Meng Yingqi came back to his senses first, looked at Fang Mingzhu, and said with some embarrassment: "That, it's not too early, lady, go and rest early!" I'll go to the study, and I still have things to attend to, so I won't be here tonight. After he finished speaking, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Fang Mingzhu put away the needle and thread at hand and said, "Xianggong just came back from outside, don't be too tired." In the end, the body matters! ”

Meng Yingqi nodded, turned around and went to the study.

In the study, Meng Jiu sat in front of the desk and looked at him with a serious face. In front of him, a white porcelain cup was still steaming, and it was clear that he had been waiting for him.

Seeing Meng Jiu, Meng Yingqi was a little ashamed: "These days, Uncle Nine is tired!" ”

Meng Jiu's expression was extremely grim: "Yingqi, do you know how much trouble you have caused to your family?" That Princess Fengyi, what's going on? In order to rescue Meng Yingqi these days, he has inquired about countless news in Beijing. There are all kinds of stories I heard, but in the final analysis, it is nothing more than Meng Yingqi falling in love with Princess Fengyi at first sight, and then falling in love, it is inevitable that he will not be formal. Or Princess Fengyi fell in love with Tanhualang at first sight, and she had to commit herself to marry. No matter what people say, it is clear that these two people have a personal relationship.

Based on Princess Fengyi's usual domineering personality, everyone is sympathetic to Tanhualang's majority.

When Princess Ancheng was discussing marriage before, Princess Fengyi's marriage was actually put on the table by the Queen Mother, but helplessly, those princes and ministers were not sensitive to Princess Fengyi, and no one paid attention to the Queen Mother's explicit hints. So the Queen Mother had no choice but to give up at that time. Secretly, he decided to try to find a noble son-in-law for Princess Fengyi.

Who knew that Princess Fengyi's proposition was so big, and she actually took a fancy to Tanhualang, who already had a wife! If Tanhualang's wife is the daughter of a small family, I am afraid that she has been secretly given three feet of white silk now. Fang Mingzhu is fortunately the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Fang Xiangye has the arguments of the Queen Mother, so he obtained the qualification of a wife similar to that of a flat wife.

A daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is already considered a high climb for the Meng family. Another princess, she is still a princess who is famous for her domineering and willfulness, for the small Meng family, there is no background in Beijing, it is really a blessing in disguise!

Meng Jiu's first reaction after learning the news that Meng Yingqi was about to marry Princess Fengyi was that he had caused a big disaster.

Looking at the Ninth Uncle with a serious expression, although he was the same age as himself, Meng Yingqi still didn't dare to be slack. truthfully explained to him all the situations in the palace, and told him everything that happened in the court, Meng Yingqi sat down and listened to his instructions.

After listening to Meng Yingqi's story, Meng Jiu quickly grasped a point: "Princess Fengyi and the Mei family look alike?" Yingqi, don't be confused, she is a princess, golden and noble, but not the Mei family in your heart! Moreover, since the Fang family arrived at our house, they have always kept to themselves and done a good job. You have to figure out for yourself how to arrange these two wives! ”

Hearing Uncle Nine say this, Meng Yingqi knew that he had completely peeked into his own mind, and also knew the reason why he would provoke Princess Fengyi. couldn't help but feel ashamed and ashamed, and said with a red face: "Uncle Jiu, my nephew knows that he is wrong!" Before, I was thinking about the Mei family, but I snubbed the Fang family. In the palace, because I missed the Mei family, I provoked Princess Fengyi. I'm even more sorry for Fang's. In the future, my nephew will definitely not be confused again! You can rest assured! ”

There is no need to re-strike the gong, and since Meng Yingqi already knows his mistakes, Meng Jiu naturally does not mention this topic anymore.

"Then next, about your marriage with the princess, is there any arrangement in the palace?" The princess's marriage is a big deal, and Meng Jiu is naturally the first to care.
