Mu Xuan couldn't wait to return to the villa and told the Duanhui county lord of Rongjiang's decision.

Duan Hui was drinking tea, and when he heard that Rong Jiang had agreed to this family business, his eyes almost popped out.

"Doesn't he look down on our family? What about changing your mind at this time? ”

Mu Xuan said: "Maybe Lord Rong finally knows how good I am and is willing to hand over his daughter to me." ”

Duan Hui saw her brother's proud look, for the first time in more than 20 years, she was so happy to see her brother, and said: "This thing is really full of twists and turns." Then we had to go back to the house. Since they all agreed, it was a matter of heart to settle down early. You're really not young, and you should have started a family a long time ago. ”

"But listen to my sister." Mu Xuan said in his heart, and he would go to Beijing with confidence when this matter was settled.

After some discussion, the sister and brother set off to go back to the palace.

Princess Yu was serving at Concubine Yan's place, and when she heard the maid's report that the county lord's sister and brother were coming, her face was a little cold, and she complained to Concubine Yan: "This sister and brother don't come to the door very much, why did they come back?" ”

Concubine Yan said: "It's also a good thing that they are willing to come back and walk around. ”

After a while, Lord Duanhui walked in front, Mu Xuan followed, and the sister and brother walked in together. They saluted Concubine Yan and the princess one after another.

Concubine Yan was crooked on the couch, looking in good spirits, nodded and smiled: "You two haven't been back for a long time." ”

Duan Hui said with a smile: "It's time to come back and say hello to the concubine." Are you still in good health? ”

Concubine Yan nodded and said, "The weather is warmer, and my body is a lot stronger." Here I just told the princess that I was going to Shanqing Cave to fight Jiao, do you want to go with me this year? ”

Duan Hui hurriedly said: "It's not too hot here, why did you prepare so early?" ”

Concubine Yan nodded and said, "It's past the Dragon Boat Festival." By the way, I was talking to the princess about your brother and sister, and your brother and sister came. ”

"Oh, I wonder what the concubine said about us?"

Concubine Yan said with a smile: "I am telling the princess that there is a suitable candidate here. ”

Concubine Yan said and looked at Duan Hui and smiled.

Duan Hui was a little puzzled, and hurriedly asked, "Are you talking about me?" ”

"yes."

When Mu Xuan heard that it was about his sister, he couldn't help but listen attentively.

Concubine Yan was in a good mood. He said to them: "That family also has a foundation, and the ancestors have also listed marquis." Although there is no lord in the family now, it is also a very noble family. I've seen that guy once, how old he is. It looks like he's in his thirties. It has been three years since Yuan Pei died, leaving only a daughter, and now he is married. I look fine, what does the county lord think? ”

Duan Hui was taken aback, today was originally here for his younger brother's family affairs. Why did it get to her, she glanced at Mu Xuan, and Mu Xuan was also looking at her.

Duan Hui hurriedly said: "Don't think about it in advance, let's let Junhua get married first." ”

Concubine Yan nodded and smiled: "It's time to talk about it well, if you are satisfied, we will talk about it first, and when Da Lang's matter is finished, we will continue to discuss, do you think it will be done?" ”

Mu Xuan called: "Sister! ”

Duanhui was a little flustered, when she was in a hurry, she was just trying to coax Mu Xuan to get married. made an excuse, when did she think about remarrying? She blushed slightly, bowed her head and said, "I didn't see anyone, I can't say." ”

Concubine Yan was very happy when she saw Duan Hui relieved: "Okay, it's easy for you to meet him, just let the princess arrange it when you go back." As he spoke, he glanced at the princess again.

The princess didn't want to care about their sister and brother's affairs, and now there was no concubine to name them, so she had to bite the bullet and say, "It can be arranged." ”

"Princess, princess, our sister and brother are here today. It's for the big things of Meritus. His business is more important, and I don't care. ”

"Oh, then, whose woman do you have your eye on?"

Duan Hui said for his younger brother: "Concubine Yu." The second master of the Rong family has already promised us a family affair, let us send a matchmaker to propose another marriage! ”

As soon as the words fell, Concubine Yan and the princess changed their eyes.

The smile on Concubine Yan's face gradually faded, and she said a little coldly: "The daughter of their Rong family can't get married, what's the matter, why don't you want to do it before." What about the immediate change of words here? ”

Mu Xuan opened his mouth at this time: "Concubine Yu, Lord Rong didn't agree to this family affair before, all because of me. ”

"Oh, aren't you worthy of their family's infamous third lady. I used to see that this marriage was not commensurate, and if it weren't for the princess who said that she moved me, I wouldn't have agreed at all. ”

It turned out that it was the princess's idea to mention this family affair before, Duan Hui glanced at the princess, and said in her heart What kind of idea did this stepmother have, deliberately to tell Junhua about a woman who doesn't sound so good, in order to deliberately disgust their sister and brother. I didn't know that I hit it by mistake, and it was in the arms of Junhua. She was also very angry before, but she couldn't resist it because of Junhua's favor, and she contacted Rong Zheng twice before she slowly accepted it.

Mu Xuan knelt down to Concubine Yan and said sincerely: "Concubine, my grandson has grown up so big, I have never begged you for anything, only this time." I hope you can agree to this. ”

Concubine Yan glanced at the princess with some embarrassment, then at Duanhui, and said weakly: "You kid...... Let me say what you are good about. You're right, you've never begged me for anything when you're so big, and it's hard for me to refute this is the first time you speak. You really want to marry the third lady of the Rong family. ”

Mu Xuan said categorically: "Yes! ”

Concubine Yan sighed and said, "If you beg me this time, I can't refuse to agree." Cheng, since you asked for it yourself, you can't blame us for what your life will be like in the future. You are a sister, no opinion? Concubine Yan said, and glanced at Duanhui again.

Duan Hui hurriedly said: "Junhua is willing to marry, it's better than escaping into the empty door." Marry one and come back satisfied, and the family will be kinder. ”

Concubine Yan sighed and said, "That's it." When your father returns, tell him about it. He had to nod his head in agreement. ”

By the time King Yu returned, it was already dusk.

King Yu was also a little surprised when he saw Duanhui's sister and brother coming to the house, but he didn't have a good face when he saw Mu Xuan. At that moment, the younger brothers and sisters all came over and greeted each other.

After the meal, Concubine Yan left King Yu to speak, and told King Yu about Mu Xuan.

After hearing this, King Yu's face turned pale, and he said coldly: "You are not ashamed, I am still ashamed." How? Are all the women of the world dead? You're just staring at the young lady of the Rong family? ”

Mu Xuan said stubbornly: "I won't marry anyone else except her." ”

"Why, don't you even listen to your father? I don't promise! King Yu simply and rudely expressed what he meant.

Concubine Yan interceded for Mu Xuan this time. Kind and pleasant persuasion: "The first time Da Lang opened his mouth to beg me, I always have to give him face, don't I?" The county lord is right. It's better than Da Lang escaping into the empty door. It is also the marriage of two people. You agreed to this, but you also had a heart in your heart for many years. ”

King Yu looked at Mu Xuan sullenly. Slightly angry: "You identified her?" ”

"Yes!"

King Yu and this eldest son don't have much affection, and what the father and son have said can only be counted with one pair of hands. He looked at Mu Xuan's appearance, but he looked a little like the Chai family back then. The Chai family went early, Mu Xuan was sick when she was young, and she grew so big in the temple. As the eldest son. But nothing was left for him, and King Yu had some mixed feelings in his heart.

"Lord Wang, my son has something to say to you alone."

King Yu nodded and walked out first.

Here Mu Ying couldn't help but walk up to Mu Xuan and said with a smile: "Big brother, do you really like Miss Rongsan?" ”

Mu Xuan nodded.

Mu Baowen also smiled: "The marriage between people is really peculiar. ”

Duanhui pushed Mu Xuan and said, "What are you still doing in a daze, don't you want to have something to say to your father." Don't go yet. But there is one sentence I want to sue you, don't make my father angry, if you have something to say. ”

Mu Xuan got up and said, "I know." As he spoke, he strode to catch up with the figure of King Yu.

The outer study of Yuwangfu is the most beautiful study in the whole Bianliang. Not only are there many rare books from ancient and modern times, but also the golden silk nanmu used for everything from bookshelves to bookcases to chairs, and the windows are inlaid with large pieces of glass. The floor is covered with terrazzo bricks engraved with the pattern of passionflower that can only be used in the royal palace. The caisson on the top is also gorgeous, painted with five-colored river seaweed. The toys and components of Dobaoge have a history.

The sky had all darkened, and the lights were lit up every time in the house.

King Yu let a small eunuch beside him hold a glass hydrangea lamp, and he personally fed a handful of food to the carp kept in the large roll tank.

Mu Xuan had already stepped into the threshold, and King Yu didn't reply, only said: "If you say anything that makes me angry, get out of here as soon as possible!" ”

"Lord Wang!" Mu Xuan called respectfully.

King Yu fed the fish. The servant brought hot water and asked King Yu to clean his hands, and then put on a handkerchief and wiped it. He sat on the couch and said, "If you have anything to say, I don't have the time to spend it with you." ”

Mu Xuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Lord Wang." Please allow me to do this! ”

"If that's the case, you don't have to say it, let's go!"

Mu Xuan continued: "My son plans to go to Beijing after this matter is settled. ”

"Oh, what are you doing in the capital?"

Mu Xuan said truthfully: "At the beginning, the second master Rong did not agree to the family matter, and his son also went to Anyang. I found the second master Rong and wanted to ask what happened. Second Master Rong is right, I just rely on my background to be good, but I am still a good-for-nothing person. What is the difference between it and ordinary gentlemen, even if she marries Miss Rongsan, she can't protect her and rely on her. When I get married in the future, I won't let my wife and children suffer with me. You have to earn some money. The prince made his younger brother the son of the world, and I have nothing to say, and it was said early on that the family would be separated as soon as I became married, so I figured out my own hard work. ”

Mu Xuan's words made King Yu very surprised, father and son for more than 20 years, Mu Xuan was the first time to talk to his father about his thoughts, future plans, I have to say, King Yu was very satisfied. The expression on his face softened a little under the illumination of the lamp, and his tone was not as stiff as just now, and said, "Well, it's not too bad for you to have this kind of awareness." So what are you going to do when you go to Beijing? ”

Mu Xuan lowered her eyebrows and said, "My son wants to go to the northwest." ”

King Yu was very surprised: "Northwest? Your body can endure it, it's a bitter cold place! ”

Mu Xuan looked up at his father, his eyes flashed with determination, and he said earnestly: "My son is a man, what kind of hardship can't be endured." It is also a penance in Puci Temple, and I have become accustomed to it over the years. Even if it starts from a small flag, the son is willing. ”

"Are you really planning to join the army?"

"Yes!" It's the same tone as when he said he was going to marry Miss Rongsan just now.

King Yu felt that this son was even more unfamiliar. He had three sons, all of whom were grandchildren. The eldest son was young and sick, and he was thrown into the temple early. The second son was crowned the prince, and he will inherit his title in the future and be in charge of the palace of the king of Yu. The third son is young, although he still likes to read, but he is exposed to some things like wind and snow, poetry and songs. He has been a vassal king for decades, but he is a famous idle king, he has been a gentleman for most of his life, he likes to eat and drink the most, and he is used to ignoring mundane affairs, and it is also because of this that the emperor is particularly at ease with him. The character of the son of the world is a little bit of him.

He thought that this was the case with their Yu King, but he didn't expect to hear the words of the eldest son. Xindao, a son who didn't grow up by his side, has a bit of ambition. He thought about it for a long time, and finally said slowly: "What are you saying to your sister?" ”

Mu Xuan said truthfully: "My son didn't dare to tell Sister Sù that she was going to the northwest, for fear that she would worry and that she would stop her." ”

They have heard of their sister-brother relationship, and King Yu nodded and said, "Your worries are reasonable, women are a little timid." It's good to go out and see the world. I don't have much to say about it. ”

Mu Xuan said: "Thank you for the success." ”

"As for the Rong family's family affairs......"

Mu Xuan immediately knelt down and said sincerely: "Please fulfill the prince!" ”

King Yu said: "You really don't know those words outside? I heard that she was taken captive a while ago and did not return overnight. Who would dare to marry such a woman? ”

Mu Xuan said: "I saved her, she lived in Qixia Villa that night." ”

King Yu was a little surprised.

"If his father didn't agree before, did he really think that you were not very competitive and incapable of protecting his daughter?"

Mu Xuan nodded silently.

It seems that this second master Rong is still a little interesting.

"Well, you've got it all said, I don't want to say yes. After the separation, I don't even ask what kind of life you live. Let you become a family, continue the blood of our Mu family, and it can be regarded as an explanation to your mother who went first. I know about it. ”

King Yu finally relented.

Mu Xuan solemnly kowtowed to King Yu three times.

"Child, destiny is fought for by yourself. As the eldest son of our branch, you have not been asked to be the son of the world, it is your life. Now you don't admit defeat and want to fight for yourself. I also respect this point, and if the road doesn't work in the future, you can still come to me. I've never done anything from you over the years. "King Yu is nearly fifty years old, and he is quite emotional when he talks about this. (To be continued.) )
