Chapter Seventy-Four: Marriage Proposal
Xiao Han went to ask the old lady's opinion, and the old lady naturally happily agreed to go into the palace with her to ask for peace with the concubine.
The next day, Chang Muzhi personally came to pick up his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and entered the palace.
Originally, Chang Runzhi could also go, but Chang Muzhi considered that her face was tender and he was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so he didn't take her with him.
This made Chang Runzhi breathe a sigh of relief.
traveled all the way, entered the palace, got off the carriage and changed to a sedan chair.
The concubine was already waiting, and when she saw Han and Xiao Han, she greeted her.
The two sides met with a salute, the palace maid served tea and snacks, chatted about some things, and gradually moved to the topic.
"I saw Runzhi once during the last palace banquet." Concubine Xian smiled: "That child is gentle and quiet, he doesn't talk much, but he looks steady." It was also the old lady and Mrs. Hou who taught well. ”
"Thank you for the compliment." Xiao Han responded with a smile, but sighed and said, "Runzhi is good anywhere, but his fate is a little worse." ”
This is to talk about the harmony of Changrun.
Concubine Xian didn't pretend not to know, but only nodded: "Runzhi's child and the matter of leaving, Mu Zhi also muttered to me twice." In the final analysis, it was still from a small family in the Fang family, with shallow eyelids, and he couldn't get on the stage, so he was wronged. ”
Xiao Han was about to answer the call and scold the Fang family, when Han's eyes swept over, and she immediately withdrew the words she wanted to export.
Han said slowly: "The old body doesn't feel that Runzhi has been wronged, on the contrary, this is also an experience for her." In the past, Runzhi's child was very rich, and I really couldn't get used to it. Now after this experience, it is like being reborn, and the whole person has become different. I still have to be grateful to that family. ”
With a smile on her face, Concubine Xian quietly listened to Han's words.
Han said: "I'm not afraid of Niangniang's jokes, if Runzhi is still the same as her before, a stuffy gourd, the old body is not happy to take care of her business."
It's just that she has changed her personality now, and in the end, she is the granddaughter of the old body, and the old body is reluctant to wronged her. ”
Concubine Xian nodded, Xiao Han admired the old lady in her heart for being able to speak, and she didn't belittle the Fang family in a word, but who couldn't hear the old lady's disdain and dissatisfaction with the other family?
This was much higher than the number of paragraphs she originally planned to scold the Fang family.
Xiao Han continued: "Although Runzhi didn't crawl out of the belly of the courtier, the courtier's wife also watched her grow up little by little, although she couldn't match Muzhi, but she also took the trouble to teach, and naturally hoped that she could have a good home." ”
As soon as the words were said here, the concubine naturally threw out what she wanted to say today.
"I also like Runzhi to be tight, now that she has returned home, she always has to find a good family, why not, I will be a matchmaker for Runzhi, what do the old lady and Mrs. Hou think?"
Since Princess Rui brought the old lady and Mrs. Hou of the Marquis of Anyuan Mansion into the palace, the Nine Emperors' request, the Marquis of Anyuan's Mansion thought that they agreed.
So when the concubine asked this, she was also very relaxed.
Xiao Han naturally smiled: "Of course, it is better to have a concubine as a matchmaker." ”
The concubine said: "What does Mrs. Hou think, how about the Nine Emperors as your son-in-law?" ”
Xiao Han suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes: "The courtiers naturally can't ask for it." ”
The concubine smiled happily.
sent away the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Marquis of Anyuan, and the concubine left Chang Muzhi to speak.
"Listen to the old lady, didn't your sister in the past have the same temperament as she does now?" The concubine asked suspiciously.
Chang Muzhi thought for a while and said: "Speaking of which, the daughter-in-law doesn't have much contact with Runzhi, although there are only three sisters in the family, but Runzhi is introverted, and the daughter-in-law mostly plays with Qinzhi when she is young."
The old lady's eyes were vicious, and she said that Runzhi had become different, and it must have become different. ”
Chang Muzhi sighed: "If it weren't for the big changes, who would have changed their temperament for no reason?" ”
Concubine Xian nodded, and said with some hesitation: "It seems that the Fang family hurt her very deeply." Then she ...... to that Fang kid"
"Don't worry, Mother Concubine, Runzhi is not that kind of person." Chang Muzhi hurriedly said: "Now that she has made up her mind to cut off relations with the Fang family, she naturally will not have anything to do with the Fang family anymore." ”
The concubine was still a little hesitant.
Chang Muzhi could only say softly: "The ninth brother came to ask the concubine for help, and the concubine only helped him." In the days to come, won't the two of them have to slowly run in and accommodate each other? What's more, the mother concubine also has to believe that the vision of the ninth brother is. ”
Concubine Xian sighed, nodded and said, "You have a point, when did Xiao Jiu make up his mind...... I hope that girl of yours is worthy of him. ”
Chang Muzhi naturally said a few good words about his sister-in-law, and then quit the palace.
With the approval of the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion, the concubine sent a message to Liu Tong and asked him to enter the palace at a time.
Liu Tong got the news, and he couldn't wait to enter the palace, but he scared the concubine a lot.
"Look at you monkey hurry!" The concubine glanced at him angrily, counted him down, and then took him to the palace of the concubine.
The noble concubine Qin came from the people, and she and Queen Chun were almost the same as the prince's mansion at that time.
Queen Chun is the crown princess and wins a man in one fell swoop; The Qin family has always been infertile, and his position is only a widow.
But it was the Qin family who had the last laugh.
Queen Chunyu couldn't wait to see her son being crowned prince, so she passed away regretfully.
The Qin clan relied on the strategy of boiling frogs in warm water, and gradually took the place of Empress Chun, and cherished Emperor Yuanwu. So even though the Qin family didn't have a son, Emperor Yuanwu still pushed her step by step to the highest position in the back palace except for the queen's phoenix chair.
As the oldest concubine in the palace today, the concubine is naturally not young. But because of proper maintenance and embellishments such as clothing and makeup, he looks like he is only in his early thirties.
Concubine Xian and Liu Tong greeted the concubine, and the concubine smiled kindly, called up, and asked Liu Tong: "It's not strange that Concubine Xian came to me, why did the Nine Emperors come to me?" ”
Liu Tong said with a smile: "Erchen came today to ask Niangniang to help Erchen deliver a message in front of his father......"
Liu Tong paused when he said this, but he still said bluntly: "Erchen likes a girl and wants to marry her." ”
The concubine suddenly smiled and said: "Now that you have a sweetheart, since you go to your father to ask for a marriage decree, why bother to let me go one more trip?" ”
Liu Tong said: "Go back to Niangniang, because the girl that Erchen likes...... In the eyes of his father, the identity may be somewhat inappropriate. ”
"Oh?" The concubine suddenly became interested: "How is it inappropriate?" ”
"Although she was born in a high family, she is a concubine. Moreover...... She was married. ”
The concubine nodded, she had seen and heard too much, and she was not surprised at all, and asked, "Is she widowed?" ”
"Not really." Liu Tong shook his head: "She is gone." ”
The concubine glanced at Liu Tong in surprise at this time, and her expression was the same as when the concubine knew about it.
"Which girl is it?" The concubine asked, "Heli is here...... It's rarely heard. ”
Liu Tong explained Chang Runzhi's origin and identity in detail.
