Chapter 199 Remuneration

A night of affection lingering to the fullest greed and joy until the fourth watch, Jinxiu lay in Luo Zhen's arms so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, but Luo Zhen was completely drunk, refreshed and energetic, if it weren't for the pity of his wife's fatigue from a long journey, he would have to coax her to get up and fight three hundred times!

Look at the bed is not what it looks like, Luo Zhen called the servant to prepare hot water, hugged Jinxiu into the clean room to clean up a little, changed the clean quilt, and accompanied Jinxiu to hug and lie down for a while, seeing that she slept soundly, she quietly got up and changed into practice clothes and braved the snow to practice a few times in the side courtyard, and then returned to the house when it was almost Yin, after washing and dressing, you could go out to catch up with the big court.

Xiangling and Xiangcha had prepared tea and breakfast, Luo Zhen used some of them, and told them not to quarrel with the young lady and let the young lady sleep well, but at three o'clock in the morning, she must be woken up, dress up ceremoniously, don't go out, and stay at home.

Approaching the New Year's Festival, today should be the last big pilgrimage, two days later is the twenty-second day of the lunar month, and the dynasty will be sealed, ready for the New Year.

Luo Zhen had already entered the palace yesterday to meet the emperor, and today he only needs to report the defense of the Eastern Tour in the court and hand it over.

Nangong Zhao also looked for him last night, the wine that the two drank in a small Xuanyuan in Baoding Houfu, because they met in private, no one knew except for their respective close attendants, Luo Zhen didn't tell Sù Jinxiu when he returned to the room late at night, not deliberately hiding it from her, but felt that her little brain just pretended to be her husband, and there was no need to occupy her mind for other things.

Even Nangong Zhao revealed that there would be a holy decree coming down today and giving Feng Jinxiu a title of fate. He didn't say anything, it's too late to say this, there is no way, as long as he sees the splendor, his brain will always be empty for the first time, and he only keeps his embroidery in his eyes.

Even if it is a seal, maybe others will take it very seriously, but his embroidery is different. So know early or know late. It doesn't affect her, after all, it's all hers!

When the dynasty was dispersed, Luo Zhen deliberately walked with several military attachés. But I still can't hide from it. When I walked to the gate of the palace, I saw auspiciousness and grandfather. Cheng Guogong stood beside his mount with his hands in his hands, his face gloomy, and his eyes swept over coldly.

Luo Zhen called him "grandfather". Respectfully and indifferently waved his hands and saluted, Cheng Guogong snorted: "You entered the palace yesterday to face the saint, and you have just explained the affairs in the court, so you will go to the Hou Mansion to bring your daughter-in-law home!" Even if she is a country woman, she can't be on the stage without rules, since she marries into the Luo family, she has to take on the responsibility of the Luo family's daughter-in-law! ”

"May I ask my grandfather, what kind of responsibility should the daughter-in-law of the Luo family have?"

"Presumptuous! I'm going to teach you this? Have you forgotten the ancestral teachings you have memorized since childhood? ”

The corner of Luo Zhen's lips flashed with a sneer: "Back then, my biological mother used to serve my grandfather and grandmother so diligently and prudently, what happened in the end?" Now, does my grandfather want me to obey my grandmother's wishes, and also learn from my third uncle many years ago, marry a wife and take a concubine, give birth to the eldest son and eldest daughter, and then give birth to a demonic little Luo Zhen, which will make the Chengguo Mansion dark? Yes, I am not the Luo Song of the year, I have my own marquis, if I obey your arrangement to marry a wife and concubine, and give birth to a group of concubines and concubines to that point, you probably can't tolerate my family to stay in the Guogong Mansion anymore, and I will definitely be driven back to the Baoding Marquis Mansion, at that time, the scourge and defeat are my Baoding Marquis Mansion! Grandfather, Luo Zhen is not talented, but he is not stupid, not to mention that our husband and wife love is difficult to tolerate others to interfere, and say that it is thankless and has no benefit to himself, why should I do it? If you want our husband and wife to return to the Gongfu and take the daughter of the Jin family as concubines, that can't be done, forgive your fate! ”

Cheng Guogong was so angry that his beard straightened: "I only ask if you can go home or not, where did you come from?" I don't care if your grandmother does something stupid, whether you accept a concubine or not, your husband and wife must return to the Guogong Mansion before the lamp is turned on tonight! ”

Luo Zhen was expressionless: "If you don't go back tonight, you'll be back tomorrow!" My husband and wife serve their relatives during the day, and they return to the Hou Mansion at night! ”

"Not allowed! Serving the elders is small, and when the year is over, your sons have to take care of the big and small sacrifices in the ancestral hall, and the incense on the altar cannot be broken every day! Your husband and wife will return to the mansion early tomorrow, and you will not be able to return to the Hou Mansion until the Shangyuan Festival! ”

After Cheng Guogong finished speaking, he brushed his sleeves and left.

Luo Zhen paused, sighed lightly, took the horse whip handed by Ji Xiang, and stepped on the horse to rush back to the Hou Mansion.

The decree to Mrs. Baoding Hou was just two steps behind him, Baoliang and others set up an incense case in the front yard, Luo Zhen had received the splendid from the second door, and the couple knocked on Long En to receive the holy decree, and the decree was the emperor's personal servant Huang Gonggong, who specially looked at the splendid embroidery, nodded and smiled haha said:

"The Sprinkle family is also acting on orders, for the emperor and the queen to take a look at the bride of the Marquis of Baoding, sure enough, gentle, intelligent, elegant and dignified, and the Marquis of Baoding is a pair of beautiful people made in heaven, excellent, excellent!"

Baoliang stuffed the red envelope that he had prepared earlier, Luo Zhen usually doesn't smile inhibitedly, he can still say a few words on the scene, Jinxiu doesn't have to worry about anything, just bow his head and pretend to be shy.

Seeing off Huang Gonggong, Luo Zhen helped Jinxiu and was just about to go back to the inner courtyard for lunch, but Jixiang came to report: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and several princes have arrived outside the door, saying that they are here to congratulate the newlywed!

Luo Zhen frowned: Nangong Zhao, that guy, only entertained him for a drink last night, and he just wanted to make trouble again!

Jinxiu whispered a few words in his ear, and told Xiangzhi Xiangtao to wait for Mrs. Fu to go back to the room, but Nangong Zhao came quickly, and Jinxiu just walked five or six steps, and heard a clear and elegant voice behind him jokingly:

"Feng Jinxiu, do you want to cross the river and tear down the bridge? Married to the Marquis of Baoding, as a lady of the first grade, all the wealth and glory, this put the big matchmaker aside, I don't expect you to pour wine and salute each other in person, I don't even want to thank you, bully me, right? ”

Jinxiu had to turn around, and wanted to bow and say a few kind words in a proper manner, but when she saw Nangong Zhao's triumphant and underwhelming appearance, she couldn't help but glance at him first:

"Whose matchmaker are you? I don't know you! When Luo Zhen wanted to marry me, he didn't say that he was the Marquis of Baoding, and I didn't look forward to this glory and wealth! ”

The four or five people who followed Nangong Zhao were not very old, and they were all Luo Zhen and Nangong Zhao's age. Their identities can be distinguished from their clothes, there are nobles and scribes, and when they saw that Jinxiu was so unkind to Nangong Zhao, there was nothing unusual, and they all smiled and looked at it.

Nangong Zhao laughed, pointed at Jinxiu and turned back to those people: "See?" This is Feng Jinxiu, the daughter-in-law I found for Luo Zhen, not bad, right? ”

Luo Zhen didn't give the prince face at all, and directly denied it: "The embroidery was found by myself, and the big media is the previous Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War." What to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! ”

Nangong Zhao glared at Luo Zhen. Angry: "Without Prince Ben to take you to Chizhou to inspect the people's situation, can you meet Xiuxiu?" Don't forget, I helped you come up with a plan in the first place so that you could go to her house and work for a long time. Then I can marry her! ”

Splendid: "......"

Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you will be the emperor in the future. It's not good to talk nonsense with your eyes open like this, right? Here's the problem. Gotta change it quickly!

When those people heard Nangong Zhao's words, they immediately gossiped: "What? Baoding Hou does long-term work? What's going on? ”

"Could it be that Mrs. Baoding Hou is unwilling to marry? So ......"

"You don't need to ask, it must be!"

Nangong Zhao smiled ghostly. Luo Zhen's face was expressionless, and Jinxiu felt the need to change the topic, so he reminded Luo Zhen: "The banquet has been set up, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and all friends to move to the flower hall together, and wait for our husband and wife to toast you!" ”

Luo Zhen led a few people to the flower hall, Nangong Zhao walked side by side with Jinxiu, and said with a smile: "Embroidery, it is really better than Mrs. Baoding Hou, and it is smooth!" Shall I call it that? ”

"This nickname was given by my husband, saying that the husband and wife called each other, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince followed suit, what is that?"

Nangong Zhao paused and glanced at Jinxiu: "You woman, saying something will always make people think wildly!" This prince sues you, Luo and I are really friends of life and death, you can't just do it casually! ”

Jinxiu walked with her head down, too lazy to look at him.

"Hey ......"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't call for hey!"

"What's that called? Mrs. Baoding? I really can't say it, you have to know that these Hou ladies of our Great Xia Dynasty, even if they are continuing, are all in their early thirties, you are so young, I can't bear to imagine that you are thirty or forty years old! ”

Jinxiu couldn't bear it anymore, and looked up at him: "You can imagine it, it's okay to think of me as an old woman in your fifties and sixties, I don't mind!" ”

"Hahaha! Oh, how good, I want to see you so interesting! ”

Nangong Zhaole said: "Let's call you by your name, my identity is different, you don't have to think about it!" ”

Jinxiu wants to go straight away.

I heard Nangong Zhao continue: "Do you remember what I said in the teahouse in Chizhou City before?" I share blessings and misfortunes with Luo Zhen, he is a dignified marquis who went to your house to do long-term work, and even lost my face! So, whatever you pay him, you have to give me a share, Jinxiu, are you ready! ”

Jinxiu glanced at Nangong Zhao and whispered: "His Royal Highness the Prince, you have also seen it: what is the price of mistakenly recruiting a Hou Ye to go home as a foreman?" It's a promise by example! I had to marry Luo Zhen, and that's the pay! If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants a copy, there will be no second Feng Jinxiu in my family! ”

Nangong Zhao: "......"

After a while, he gritted his teeth and smiled: "Okay, you Feng Jinxiu!" Okay, keep this account, and I'll talk about it when I think of what I want! ”

When Jinxiu heard it, he thought of what he wanted, how could it be? Don't say that there may not be, and even if there is, you can't really give it to him!

immediately said: "We countrymen are sincere, but we don't want to delay the accounting, since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has to pay that reward, it is better for us to settle it all at once!" There are no good things in the countryside, nothing more than a few buckets of corn grains, a few handfuls of greens, and some specialties from my hometown, this time I brought a lot, all of them are listed, you take a look, as long as you can see it, it is counted, okay? ”

Nangong Zhao touched his chin for consideration, and asked Jinxiu to beg him twice, and finally nodded in agreement, seeing that Jinxiu was relieved, he laughed as he wished.

Luo Zhen and those people walked in front, looking back from time to time, and saw Nangong Zhao chatting with his wife, knowing that there was no problem, his heart was still very sour.

Nangong Zhao, this guy is really hateful!

Chengguo Mansion, Chengguo Gong and Duchess heard that the emperor had issued a holy decree and gave Feng Jinxiu a seal, although Chengguo Gong was not happy in his heart, he didn't say anything, although the holy decree can be glorified when he enters the door, but who doesn't know that Luo Zhen is a descendant of Chengguo Mansion? The glory of the Baoding Marquis Mansion is also the Chengguo Mansion, there is no doubt about it!

Old Madam Luo was full of anger, blaming Luo Zhen for not knowing things and not being a man, and the emperor did not lead to the Guogong Mansion but had to suffer it by himself in the forced Xiaohou Mansion, and slapped the table to scold Luo Zhen again.

Or the virtuous Zheng family and the filial grandmother Luo persuaded Mrs. Luo to get better, and the second girl Luo mentioned it next to her, saying that since the three young grandmothers were able to get up and accept the seal, it means that the illness should be cured, why don't you return to the national mansion? Could it be that there is something better in the Hou Mansion that makes her reluctant to come back?

Mrs. Luo was moved when she heard this, and she was fine, so she asked Zheng and Grandma Luo to accompany her, and wanted to go to the Baoding Marquis Mansion to have a look.

Under the end of the New Year, there are few old and young people in the family, and there are many things like cow hair, she is a new daughter-in-law who does not come to work, how can there be a reason to hide on the side and be idle!

While changing clothes, while letting people go over to report first, when the group was about to board the carriage, the person who sent over came back again, saying that there was a distinguished guest in the Hou Mansion: His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and several sons of the noble family came to congratulate him, and were drinking in the front yard, and the third master led the third young grandmother to the banquet to toast......
