Xu Mingyan nodded implicitly.

The eldest princess looked at her daughter and showed an unpredictable smile, and she instructed Mother Qin beside her: "Prepare a sedan chair, this palace has to go out!" ”

Mother Qin answered yes and hurriedly ordered the matter to go on.

The eldest princess looked at Xu Shuxuan again, and said meaningfully: "This palace is a person who can't rub sand in his eyes, since this palace is allowed to manage the inner house of this Guogong Mansion, then you have to do things according to the rules of the palace, and the slaves of the back master are the most intolerable, as the prince of the Guogong Mansion, you will have to take on the heavy responsibility of the head of this family in the future, in addition to the due cultivation and bearing, you must also learn the art of controlling people!" ”

Xu Shuxuan naturally heard what she meant, so he nodded very respectfully and replied, "Mother has taught me a lesson!" ”

The eldest princess still looked coldly at this son, who had always maintained the image of a humble and calm son, and asked, "I heard that this palace heard that Gongzi Yan sent you a beautiful maidservant. How? The palace selected for you, you don't like any of them, but you accepted the concubine given by Yan Fan? ”

The eldest princess deliberately accentuated the tone of the word "concubine", which means sarcasm, who doesn't know the lustful name of Yan Fan, and what kind of good goods will the concubine he gifted?

Xu Shuxuan smiled and replied, "Mother should know that Shu Xuan didn't dare to refuse the gift from the East Building!" His father taught Shu Xuan that the Xu family does not attach itself to the party, does not make enemies, and respects the mean as a virtue. It's just a maid, so why make an enemy because of her? Shu Xuan still knows what to do? ”

That means that he wasn't happy to take in this maid in his heart, but he just didn't want to offend Yan Fan, but who knew what Yan Fan's intention was in placing this maid in the Wei Mansion?

The eldest princess looked at Xu Shuxuan for a while, and finally had nothing to say, so she changed the conversation and said: "Okay, this matter has not been mentioned, you have also done the gift of tying your hair this year, and you are the eldest grandson of the Xu family's generation, since you are an adult, you should find a family business and continue the heirs of your Xu family." Speaking of this, she paused, and added, "The boudoir lady selected by this palace for you, presumably you don't like it either, why don't you tell this palace yourself, what kind of girl do you like, and this palace will help you say goodbye?" ”

She asked this because she already knew that the reason why the family affairs she said before were disturbed was all because of his manipulation behind his back, but she was not angry at all, and let him choose for himself? Since ancient times, marriage has been decided by parents, especially the children of a big family like them, who have no right to choose by themselves, but why is she willing to give him the right to choose?

Xu Shuxuan had a trace of confusion in his heart, he didn't know what the eldest princess was thinking in her heart, could it be that this kind of situation of mother-to-son filial piety had been maintained for a long time, but she really cared about and respected herself?

A wry smile appeared on the corner of Xu Shuxuan's lips, but Xu Mingyan, who was standing next to the eldest princess, changed color after hearing this, and a trace of displeasure and melancholy appeared on Duanxiu's face.

She looked at Xu Shuxuan nervously, but when she saw that his pursed lips were lightly opened, she said very humbly and helplessly: "Thank you mother, but Shu Xuan doesn't want to get married now, and I ask my mother to put this matter aside for the time being, don't worry about it anymore!" ”

"Don't want to get married?" The eldest princess's tone showed a slight surprise, but a trace of gloom on Xu Mingyan's face melted like spring water.

"Why?" The eldest princess asked again.

Xu Shuxuan said: "Although I am the prince of Wei, after all, I am different from ordinary people, if I can't allow people to last a long time, why delay others?" ”

Although these words were vague, the eldest princess could also understand the meaning, she was stunned for a long time, and finally said: "There are unpredictable circumstances in the sky, people have good fortune and misfortune, and those who are healthy and normal may not live longer than you, everyone in the world says, the unicorn in my Wei Mansion was born, and the phoenix came to Yi, since there is such an auspicious omen, people like you should marry more and have more lives to live in vain The ancestors of the Xu family expect you to be in vain!" ”

"Think about it again!" After saying this sentence in the end, the eldest princess called Qin's mother and walked into the inner room.

Xu Shuxuan was left stunned in the hall, but Xu Mingyan was stunned and smiled.

After about a pillar of incense, the eldest princess changed into a purple and blue cross-necked jacket with cherry blossoms, covered with a gray civet mink velvet, and walked out surrounded by a group of maids.

"Go to Ding'an Street!" She finally commanded.

Mother Qin complied, glanced at Xu Shuxuan with pity, and then followed the eldest princess towards the gate of the main courtyard, where a dazzling and gorgeous soft sedan chair was prepared, and eight servants were already waiting by the sedan chair.

Looking at this formation, it's really time to go out!

Xu Shuxuan looked at Mother Qin's arms holding a long sword wrapped in satin, and thought for a while.

At this time, Xu Mingyan walked to his side and said softly: "Although I don't know why the eldest brother wants to help the Yang family, as long as it is what the eldest brother wants to do, I will definitely help the eldest brother!" ”

Xu Shuxuan was stunned, he looked at Xu Mingyan and remembered the Shang Fang Sword she had just mentioned to the eldest princess!

Shang Fang sword is the sword given by the emperor, and it has the power to cut first and then play, and those who see this sword are like seeing the emperor!

What is the eldest prince going to do with it?

Just as he was hesitating and thinking, he heard a cheerful voice coming from again, and shouted loudly from afar: "Big brother, something big has happened in the capital, do you want to go out with Scarlet Smoke to have a look?" ”

The person who came was his third cousin Xu Feiyan, who was wearing a cherry coat with snow fox trim today, with a light blue dress with a golden light, and a sparkling collar around her neck, dressed very gorgeously.

As usual, wherever she went, she was accompanied by four maids, each with what she needed, ready to serve.

"I heard that all the heirs of the Yang family, as well as the old and weak women and children, have been escorted to the capital, is the case of the Yang family closed? It's almost the end of the year, the emperor won't use them to worship the sky, right? I heard that the emperor is about to hold a ceremony to worship the sky? Xu Feiyan said heartlessly, "Also, eldest brother, I heard from the guests in the teahouse that the two youngest grandchildren of the Yang family are under the age of ten, and a little girl who looks like she is only six or seven years old has also been arrested together!" This family is really weird and pitiful, big brother, let's go and see it too! ”

Xu Feiyan said, the person had already arrived behind Xu Shuxuan, and he raised his hand to push his wheelchair forward.

But I heard Xu Mingyan say: "I don't want to see the Yang family, but I want to see Lu Gongzi, right?" ”

Xu Feiyan stomped her feet when she heard this, and said ashamedly and annoyedly: "How can the second sister make fun of my sister like this, what's wrong with Lu Gongzi?" Lu Gongzi is very good, he saved me and gave me lanterns, he is a big hero! ”

"The third sister is admitted!" Xu Mingyan continued to quip, "Everyone in the capital is afraid of him Lu Yanzhao, and he has given him the nickname Little Yama King, and only the third sister treats him as a hero." Did everyone look for him thousands of times, and suddenly look back, but that person was in the dim light? ”

The last sentence really fits the scene when she and Lu Yanzhao met at the Lantern Festival that time.

The halo on Xu Feiyan's cheeks deepened, and he said coquettishly in front of Xu Shuxuan: "Big brother, look! The second sister is not ashamed, she is here to talk nonsense and make fun of me! ”

Xu Shuxuan couldn't smile as easily as them, but only tugged the corners of his lips slightly to hide his anxious state of mind.

After the two girls had enough trouble, he said, "Then let's go and see!" ”

The streets of Ding'an were still bleak, and when Jinyiwei passed by, the crowds on the street had almost retreated, and at this time, only the small windows of the teahouse and hotel next to the street were open, and countless faces were quietly peeping behind the windows.

There was no one else on the street except this team of brocade guards, but suddenly before, there was a soft sedan chair in front of that group of people, the soft sedan chair was extremely gorgeous, and next to it were not only a few luxuriously dressed maids, but also several tall and burly side sword guards, and the back of the sedan chair was followed by a group of men who were entangled and high-spirited.

Xu Moxuan recognized the identity represented by this soft sedan chair at a glance, and then looked at the middle-aged woman in a red and flowered skirt next to the soft arrogance, and shrank his eyes sharply.

Lu Yanzhao had already jumped off the horse, bowed respectfully to the person in the soft sedan chair, and said, "Meet Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!" ”

"Her Royal Highness the eldest princess asked: Where are you going to send the people of the Yang family?" Mother Qin stepped forward and said with a smile.

Mother Qin was holding a sword in her arms, although it was covered with silk, the exposed beaded sword hilt Ming Huang Jian Sui had already made him recognize that it was Shang Fang's sword!

The eldest prince presides over the sword of Shang Fang, and he can behead the unconscious king at the top and the traitor at the bottom! Of course, no matter how mediocre the emperor is, she doesn't dare to cut it, but if it is against a courtier like them, this sword represents the king of Hades!

"Back to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, I will be ordered by the emperor to bring them to the imperial prison for trial!" Lu Yan replied.

Mother Qin passed the words to the eldest princess in the soft sedan chair, and after getting the hint from the eldest princess, she said to Lu Yanzhao again: "Her Royal Highness the eldest princess means that no matter how you interrogate and train, you must keep the lives of everyone in the Yang family for at least three days, and after three days, you can do whatever you want!" Now that the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens is imminent, the emperor doesn't want any bad omen in the capital, let alone any killing and blood! ”

Lu Yanzhao listened and thought for a while, isn't this in line with his father's intentions?

He didn't want to do anything to the Yang family? It's just that they were brought to the capital on the orders of their father! In this way, with the eldest princess's will, they have even more reason to protect the lives of the entire Yang family!

Jin Yiwei has never only killed people, and has never done anything to save people!

Lu Yanzhao couldn't help but smile in his heart, and replied with a straight face: "Yes, the meaning of the eldest princess, I understand the humble position!" ”

"That's good! Lu Gongzi is really a smart person! Mother Qin smiled with satisfaction, she took a step to the right, suddenly turned her gaze to a horse behind Lu Yanzhao, raised her voice slightly and said coldly, "Fifth Young Master, have you forgotten your identity and are no longer from the Duke of Wei's mansion?" ”

Xu Moxuan jumped off the horse with a swish, stood side by side with Lu Yanzhao, and said with a smile: "Dressed like this, I thought that Mother Qin couldn't recognize me anymore, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, please say hello to Mother Qin, and please say hello to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!" ”

"The slave maid thought that the fifth young master was going to leave the Guogong Mansion and set up his own door! Presumably, the ancestral training of the Xu family, the fifth young master has never taken it seriously! ”

Seeing Mother Qin's sneering and nostrils facing the sky, Xu Moxuan sneered twice, and suddenly raised his head and shouted, "Mother Qin!" ”

Mother Qin trembled sharply and was startled.

Xu Moxuan said: "You have big nostrils when you get angry, do you know? ”

What's going on? Is it good to have a completely bull's head on the horse's mouth? Why did the topic and focus shift to her?

Mother Qin was dumbfounded, and when she reacted, she was so angry that her nose was full of white smoke!

Lu Yanzhao lowered his head, covered his mouth and smiled!

"No wonder you're so old and haven't gotten married? Can't you speak softly? Can't you be a lady? Can't we have a little bit of love? What am I doing wrong? Didn't I just become a brocade guard, who did I offend? Why do you say that about me? Do you still want my father to open an ancestral hall and remove me? ”

Xu Moxuan's series of questions made Qin's mother's face turn red and white for a while! In the end, in Qin's mother's stammering groan, he pointed to her nose very aggrieved and said indignantly: "Don't think I don't know that's what you think!" ”
