Chapter 127: Hold the Field
"What?" Xu Zigui didn't react for a while, and after he reacted to what Mo Leyuan asked, he couldn't help but pinch Mo Leyuan's face to explain
"Concubine Shu's sister is the eldest son and daughter-in-law of the Right Minister's Mansion, and Concubine Shu is thinking about the big boat of the Right Minister's Mansion on the list, and is playing Shao Qingyuan's idea, my grandfather's mansion and the Right Minister's Mansion have always been at odds, but in order to show the emperor that she is very virtuous, the makeup gift given to my cousin will naturally not be bad, although the concubine is in the position of concubine, but the concubine's mother's family is not very prominent, naturally it will not be like Concubine Zhao Jieyu and others who are not short of silver flowers, although Concubine Shu and her sister have been friends over the years, and the right prime minister is on the list, but people will not take money to an outsider to spend it."
"No wonder," a gloating smile flashed on Mo Leyuan's face, "Concubine Shu should be embarrassed now"
Seeing Mo Leyuan's gloating look, Xu Zigui couldn't help laughing, poked Mo Leyuan, got up and said goodbye, "Rest early, you have to get up early tomorrow morning."
Mo Leyuan nodded and asked, "Is your sister-in-law still going?" ”
"My grandfather's family is her grandfather, and my cousin is her cousin, do you think she will go?"
Mo Leyuan pouted, "Then you can be careful of these, what kind of moth will she come out of to frame you again"
"I know" Xu Zigui nodded, and said as he walked out: "It's not early, you rest early, I'll come over to have breakfast with you tomorrow morning."
Mo Leyuan nodded, sent Xu Zigui to the door, and after watching Xu Zigui leave, he went back to the room and fell asleep
Xu Zigui always felt that someone was following him all the way, but every time he inadvertently turned back, he couldn't find the shadow of that person, Xu Zigui couldn't help but feel a little anxious, thinking that Yuerong was protecting himself in the dark. With some confidence in his heart, he held Zi Dai's hand and accelerated the pace of walking back, but he didn't want to, as soon as he walked out of Mo Leyuan's main hall, he was blocked on the road
"Miss Xu, don't come unharmed"
The warm voice is like a spring breeze, and it is Xu Zigui's favorite voice. Now I hear this man's voice again. Xu Zigui only felt as disgusting as swallowing a fly
"What's the matter with the four princes looking for courtiers?"
Although Xu Zigui tried his best to hide it, Mo Qingyuan still heard disgust from Xu Zigui's tone, and he didn't know why. There was a faint pain in my heart, and the words blurted out involuntarily
"You're so disgusted with me?"
It's not just disgust, it's the heart to kill you! Xu Zigui secretly slandered in his heart, but his face was still peaceful," the fourth prince laughed. The body of the four princes' daughters, how can they get the turn of the courtiers to disgust them"
The subtext is. I really loathe you
Mo Qingyuan also heard Xu Zigui's subtext, but he didn't have the anger that Xu Zigui expected, but suddenly chuckled and was born, "Xu Zigui, you are still among the women in the capital." The first one to say he loathed me"
Xu Zigui nodded, looked at Mo Qingyuan with a "so what" expression, and sneered: "Men and women don't kiss." If the four princes are fine, please forgive the courtiers for not accompanying them anymore."
After speaking. Bypassing Mo Qingyuan, he had to go to his own side hall.
Xu Zigui looked like he was ignoring it, in Mo Qingyuan's eyes, just as she was about to refuse and welcome, Mo Qingyuan didn't catch up with her, but just said a word behind Xu Zigui as if he was playful, making Xu Zigui freeze in place
He said: "Miss Xu intercepted the letter from my mother to me, and when it was sent back to me, the letter added Miss Xu's kind reminder that the prince is here to thank Miss Xu."
After speaking, Xu Zigui, who was left frozen in place, left on his own
Imitating handwriting is Lan Xiang's best skill, but he didn't want to, but he was still discovered by Mo Qingyuan, and this person's delicate mind is really scary......
Fortunately, Mo Qingyuan pretended to be high, and because of his extraordinary appearance, he thought that as long as he was a little girl, he would fall in love with him and be willing to do anything for him, which led Mo Qingyuan to take the letter that had been manipulated, and he didn't think about the dark side, but thought that Xu Ziguifang was pleased with him, so he willingly came to remind him
With a long sigh of relief, Xu Zigui put his hand on Zidai's hand and said lightly: "Go back"
Zi Dai couldn't help but worry: "Girl, what should we do if we are ...... and the four princes see our plan?" It's just that before she could ask the words, she was stopped by Xu Zigui's eyes, and Zi Dai remembered that this was not in the Hou Mansion, there were ears everywhere in the palace, it was she who was too careless
Xu Zigui saw Zidai's apologetic and guilty expression, so he spoke up in time: "We are used to being comfortable, but we can't relax our vigilance too much, you must know that you are born in sorrow and die in peace, when to say something, you don't need me to remind you."
"The slave and the maid are provincial, it is the slave and the maid who are negligent" Zidai lowered her head and humbly comprehended, and Xu Zigui nodded with satisfaction
"You have always understood proportion, I am naturally relieved" said, patted Zidai's hand, looked in the direction of Mo Qingyuan's departure, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "In a few days, I will give the fourth prince a big gift"
Zidai naturally understood what Xu Zigui's "big gift" was, and didn't ask any more, helping Xu Zigui to walk to the side hall where they were
"Cousin Ming'er is getting married, can the girl think of what to give to make makeup?"
Xu Zigui nodded: "Ming'er, you go to Zuo Xiang's Mansion with Bai Zhi before I go to my grandfather's mansion."
Zi Dai was surprised: "Girl Ming'er wants to wear the county lord's palace clothes?" ”
Seeing his own words, Zi Dai could understand his deep meaning, and Xu Zigui's eyes became more and more satisfied when he looked at Zi Dai
"Although the eldest cousin is the eldest granddaughter of the Zuo Xiangfu, but the uncle's official position is only the deputy protector of the fourth grade, Wan Shangshu is a good official from the first grade, the eldest cousin is married to a high marriage, it is inevitable that people will not look down on it, I and Anyang's high-profile can be regarded as letting the Wan family see clearly who is standing behind the eldest cousin, if you want to bully my eldest cousin, first see if you have enough weight!"
Although there is a handkerchief in the boudoir as a sister-in-law, and from the current point of view, the personnel in Wanshangshu's mansion are simple, and there will be no such smoky miasma, judging from the memory of the previous life, Qin Siyuan married Wan Yanting's eldest son Wan Yanting within two months, Wan Yanting's cousin's father died of the cold, and within three months of marriage, Wan Yanting's aunt took Wan Yanting's cousin Cheng Huashang to live in Wanshangshu's mansion (because Wan Yanting's aunt's husband's surname is Cheng, take the writing method on the red mansion, and call her Aunt Cheng below)
Wan Yanting's mother, Geng, has had a very close relationship with Aunt Cheng since she was a child, and Aunt Cheng's husband died in the previous life, so Geng naturally took more care of her sister. also regarded his sister's daughter as his own, because he was afraid that his nephew's daughter would be bullied when he got married, he repeatedly signaled his son to go to Cheng Huashang as his wife, Wan Yanting disagreed, Geng and Aunt Cheng always made some moths to toss Qin Siyuan, Aunt Cheng was even more vicious, and even let her own daughter drug Wan Yanting. After the good deeds of the two were completed, he took everyone in Wanshang Shufu to catch the adulterer. Wan Jia didn't dare to offend the Prime Minister's Mansion, and in the end, Wan Jia gave Cheng Huashang the title of a concubine
can be a mother-in-law with an aunt. Geng's family is eccentric to Cheng Huasheng, the people in the house are the most likely to meet the wind envoy, Cheng Huasheng's life is more comfortable than that of the lady, but Qin Siyuan's life is more difficult than that of ordinary concubines
In the previous life, Wan Lu did not have a good relationship with Qin Siyuan before he married into the mansion. Between Qin Siyuan and her cousin, Wan Lu is naturally the eccentric cousin. Even though Wan Lu was kind by nature and did not force Qin Siyuan to accept Cheng Huasheng, he also looked down on Qin Siyuan more or less because of the provocation of Aunt Cheng and Cheng Huasheng
In this life, Xu Zigui wanted to ruin the marriage between Qin Siyuan and Wan Yanting, but he thought that in the previous life, the two of them really loved each other. This cousin-in-law also really loves Qin Siyuan, but he is forced by filial piety and has no choice. Xu Zigui couldn't bear to break up, just thinking about it. In this life, I have my own help, I hope Qin Siyuan's life will be better
Xu Zigui breathed a deep sigh of relief, and smiled at Zidai: "You go down to rest earlier, when Ming'er is ugly, you go to Zuo Xiang's Mansion with Bai Zhi to send makeup gifts" said, pointing to the box placed at the door, "The Queen Mother rewarded six, the queen rewarded five, the four concubines of the harem each rewarded four, and Anyang rewarded three, I can't go past them, those two boxes were given by me,"
said, pointed to the gift list on the table, and said with a smile: "Ming'er, you have to do enough pomp and circumstance, follow Bai Zhi to learn, let's Ming'er is to congratulate the eldest cousin, and the second is to support the eldest cousin, although I can only send two gift boxes, but the inside is full, and the box is also sunk, these are four purses, there are some broken silver in them, Ming'er remembers to reward the father-in-law who carried the box"
Zidai responded with a smile one by one, Xu Zigui waved his hand and asked Zidai to go down to rest earlier, and she was waited by the red-sleeved willow and green two into the clean room
"Now it is rumored on the street that the eldest son of Wanshang Shu is a blessed man who married the eldest granddaughter of Zuo Xiangfu, and the girl Ming'er will give her cousin a long face, and when the time comes, the cousin will marry into Wanshang Shufu, I am afraid that she will be offered up as a Bodhisattva."
"It's sweet for you"
Xu Zigui twisted the nose of the red sleeves, and she also heard a little about the rumors on the street, the eldest granddaughter of the Zuo Xiangfu got married, which attracted the Queen Mother, the Queen and the four concubines of the harem to give gifts, such pomp is rare in the capital itself, during which it was rumored that on the day of Qin Siyuan's wedding, the most favored princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty would come to the Zuo Xiangfu to marry Qin Siyuan
Soaking in the water, Xu Zigui raised his head back comfortably, then got up and got dressed and walked out of the clean room, took the soothing tea handed over by Liu Lu, took a sip, and lay down on the bed with red sleeves, before instructing: "Just call me up after Ming'er Zidai leaves."
"Got it" Liu Lu smiled and tucked the corner of Xu Zigui's back, and after extinguishing the candles in the house, he walked out lightly with the red sleeves
Zi Dai is the main hall at the end of the ugly time with Bai Zhi, and a few little eunuchs carried the two of them out of the palace gate for Qin Siyuan's makeup gift, Zuo Xiangfu is in Xuanbei Hutong, and the Forbidden City is about an hour away, Zi Dai and Bai Zhi arrived, it was the end of the Yin period and the beginning of the time
Because Bai Zhi was serving by Princess Anyang's side, when the two came, everyone in the Zuo Xiang's mansion went to the second gate to greet them, and the one who stood at the head was Qin Wei, the one who stood next to him was his eldest son Qin Yang, and then there was today's protagonist Qin Siyuan
After Bai Zhi and Zi Dai got out of the car, Qin Wei led everyone to salute when they were stopped by Bai Zhi
"I can't help it, the slave and maid can't afford to be the courtesy of the master" said, looked at Qin Siyuan who was standing aside, and said with a smile: "The slave and maid are here to congratulate Miss Qin."
Qin Siyuan hurriedly replied with a salute, saying "don't dare"
After Bai Zhi finished greeting the people of Zuo Xiangfu, Zi Dai stepped forward with a smile and bowed to everyone, and said with a smile: "The slave maid is also on the order of our county lord to congratulate the cousin."
Hearing that Zidai moved out of Xu Zigui's title as the county lord, the people of Zuo Xiangfu understood that Xu Zigui was doing this to give the head of Zuo Xiangfu a face, Qin Siyuan's eyes were slightly hot, and his heart was moved, and the people who came to congratulate him couldn't help but be shocked when they heard it, Wanshang Shufu was really a blessing
Respect first and then humble, and after Bai Zhi finished reading the gift list, Zi Dai read Xu Zigui's gift list
“…… Two pairs of mutton fat white jade bracelets, a statue of Guanyin"
"Do you like the gift I gave my cousin?" Zidai just finished reading the gift list, Xu Zigui took the county lord's sedan chair outside the door of the Zuo Xiang's mansion and got off the car, with it, it was Princess Anyang wearing the princess's palace clothes, everyone saw the princess coming, they all wanted to kneel and bow, but were interrupted by Anyang's soft voice
"This palace is here today for Miss Qin's wedding, there is only Anyang here, there is no princess, everyone does not need to be restrained"
I have to say that although Anyang doesn't have a proper line on weekdays, after all, she is a princess who grew up in the palace, which is the same style, and it looks quite like that
Looking at Mo Leyuan's appearance, Xu Zigui was funny in his heart, but his face was also like Mo Leyuan's, smiling gently and elegantly
Qin Siyu rarely saw Xu Zigui look like this, and now he is also holding back his laughter and almost holding back his internal injuries, but fortunately, after everyone saw the ceremony, Xu Zigui and Mo Leyuan followed Qin Siyuan and others into the flower hall, gossiping, waiting for the groom to pick up the bride
Zhou Guogong's Mansion is also in Xuanbei Hutong, so Zhou Yining came earlier than Xu Zigui, just when Bai Zhi came, the Qin family went to greet outside the second gate, Zhou Yining, as an outsider, didn't have to go out to greet him, he stayed in the flower hall and waited, and now seeing Qin Siyuan coming back, Zhou Yining hurriedly stepped forward
After giving Mo Leyuan and Xu Zigui two blessings first, Zhou Yining smiled and said, "I didn't expect you two to come to support Sister Qin in such a high-profile manner."
"You didn't expect a lot" Xu Zigui twisted Zhou Yining's nose, his movements were intimate, he looked around, and when he saw Qin's figure, the smile on his face couldn't help but amplify, and the movements on his feet were a little faster
"Mother"
The Qin family was still thinking about the Qin family coming out of the second gate to greet Bai Zhi beside the princess, thinking that Xu Zigui was coming soon, and at this moment he vaguely heard someone calling him, and when he looked back, he saw his daughter standing not far behind him and looking at him with a smile
"You lazy girl, it's too late"
"Mother" Xu Zigui took Qin's hand and coquettishly said, "The Forbidden City is an hour's journey from Xuanbei Hutong, and my daughter will get up when she is in Yin"
Seeing Xu Zigui's painful look, Qin Siyu smiled and quipped, "Auntie, don't blame Hui'er for coming late, it's not easy to get up when Gui'er is able to get up, and my niece and nephew wonder if the sun is coming out of the west today."
"Just what you will say" Xu Zigui glared at Qin Siyu with disgust, and said with a smile: "Mother, you are busy first, and your daughter will stop chattering."
Qin nodded, Xu Zigui and everyone followed Qin Siyuan into Qin Siyuan's boudoir, Qin Siyuan got married, Wu wanted to wait for Qin Siyuan and Wan Yanting's farewell tea in the main hall, it was inconvenient to show his face to greet everyone, there was only one son and one daughter on the left, Wu had no concubine to help, so he had to invite his sister-in-law to help greet those guests who came to congratulate (to be continued)
