The Xu family.

Master Xu Jianwen and Mrs. Ying looked at each other and did not speak for a long time.

They are a young husband and wife who have been married for many years and know each other tacitly. But the news brought by Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Jian Anbo made them not know what to say.

The Xu family and the Shi family are cousins, close to each other, although the career of Master Shi is not smooth, but Miss Shi is gentle and graceful, talented and beautiful, in order to promote this family affair, Ying and Xu Jianwen quarreled, and the only son Xu Tingshen almost separated from mother and son. Seeing that the two families were about to be officially decided, Miss Shi was favored by the queen. But at this time, the matter of the Xu family and the Shi family discussing marriage had already spread out, and the Ying family only had to bow their heads and invite Mrs. Liang to the Jin family to propose marriage.

I thought this was a matter of course, but a few days later, when Xu Tingshen came back from attending the cultural meeting, he rushed into the house, did not eat or drink, and became ill at night.

The next day, there was news that the Zhenguo Mansion also went to the Jin family to propose marriage, and Ying found the people around Xu Tingshen to ask carefully, only then did he know that Xu Tingshen and a Qingqi person on the Wenhui had eyebrows and went out together.

Xu Tingshen is sixteen years old, and there is not even a maid with an open face in the room. Mrs. Xu, who heard the news, called Ying to the front for a good meal, blaming her for forcing Erlang to study hard, but she did not fulfill her mother's responsibilities, this age is the time when men and women are most curious, big families, even if they don't marry a wife, will first put one or two girls in the room, so as not to learn badly outside.

Ying hurriedly picked two honest and dignified maids and put them in Xu Tingshen's house. She thought, although the Gu family proposed to the Jin family. But if the Gu family learns about the Feng family, I am afraid that this family affair will not be able to be completed, besides, the Jin family is also the emperor, and he has already become a leader, so he will not even have self-knowledge, the Gu family is a first-class prince, a relative of the emperor. The Jin family is not even worthy of the Xu family, do you still want to marry the Gu family?

Therefore, Ying originally wanted to wait for Erlang's illness to get better. Then ask Mrs. Liang to go to Jin's house. But just a few days later, Mrs. Jian Anbo hurried back to her parents' house.

Mrs. Jian'anbo listened to the two women who entered the palace to ask for peace, and Miss Jin Wu was summoned into the palace by the queen's mother and talked for a while. and he who took the reward.

If it's usual. The queen has nothing to do. It doesn't matter how many ladies you are looking for to gossip about homely things. But this year is in the draft, and Miss Jin Wu is not a noble daughter, she is just the daughter of a small official from a merchant.

In order to avoid the disaster of the former dynasty and the harem. In the early years of the Zili Dynasty, there was a saying that officials and women above the fifth rank were not drafted, and even the queen's maiden family was no longer a marquis.

The princes, county kings, and generals of the town are quite down-to-earth, and they all marry noble daughters from famous families as concubines. But as far as the eye can see, the emperor's harem is all women from humble backgrounds.

Although Jin Wu is not in the draft, her background is not high, if she is really favored by the queen, it is normal to point out a certain prince as a concubine like she did to Miss Shi.

When Mrs. Xu got the news, she hurried over, the Jin family's family affairs can no longer be discussed, hurry up and change the family!

Ying sighed, and he didn't know if the Xu family was lucky or unlucky. Whichever family you talk to, which daughter will be favored by the queen, which will not let people live.

Slander is slander, and the top priority is to use the fastest speed to find another one.

Chunfu is just around the corner, if there is news that Erlang and the candidate woman are talking about marriage, no matter how good the article is, the character will eventually be damaged, and even if he is admitted to the Jinshi in the future, it will be difficult to do anything again.

Xu Tingshen has been sick, and the two Tongfang are serving beside him, he didn't think much about it, and thought that his mother sent him to take care of him.

Coincidentally, Mrs. Liang's sister-in-law took her daughter to live in the capital, that Miss Liang had just been married, and she had not yet been engaged, so Ying went to see each other, and within a few days, the two families made a decision, and at this time, Xu Tingshen's illness had not yet recovered, and he didn't know what was happening outside.

Besides, Linglong, since she left the palace, Mrs. Jin has never given her a good look, and Master Jin San, who has always been speechless with his daughter, also hated to look at Linglong, and never wanted to see her a second time.

It was Jin Zifeng, the third master of the Jin family, who came to the Linglong small cross-courtyard, carefully asked about the details when he entered the palace, and then went to the Zhenguo Mansion non-stop.

When he arrived at the gate of the Zhenguo Mansion, he happened to see a black painted flat-topped carriage going out of the Guogong Mansion, and he asked the little guy who took him in: "Is that the son of the world going out?" ”

The little servant said: "The prince is still in Mulan Hall, and the lady is sitting in the carriage of Fang Cai, and the queen mother announced that the lady has entered the palace." “

Jin Zifeng remembered the incident on the street of the lamp market, so he asked, "Miss Seven didn't accompany her lady into the palace?" “

There are a lot of people who are in the world, this Jin Sanye has been here a few times before, but he hasn't seen how rare the prince is, and he asks questions at this time, and he also asks about Miss Seven, he is really an ignorant person. In a door like Zhenguo Mansion, the little guys in the house already felt that they were superior, Jin Zifeng only asked a few words, and this little guy put on a contemptuous look, and said coldly: "Mrs. and Miss are in the back garden, the Guogong Mansion is not a small family, the front garden and the back garden are distinct, don't ask more." “

Jin Zifeng's face was red, and he secretly regretted that he had said the wrong thing, and he had provoked the spittle of the minions. I wanted to leave with my sleeves up, but when I thought about it again, no matter how high the threshold of the Gu family is, and now they are proposing to the Jin family, how can they forget the purpose of coming here because of a few words from the minions.

When he arrived at Mulan Hall, Gu Jinzhi was not at the banquet. A little guy named Xiao Hammer came over, saying that the prince was called by the grandfather of the country, and asked Jin Sanye to wait a little longer.

Jin Zifeng waited for an hour, until the sun went down, and Gu Jinzhi did not come back.

Jin Zifeng had no choice but to say goodbye first, and as soon as he arrived at the gate, he saw a noble lady with a big makeup supported by the maids, and came out of the carriage with a pale face, got into a small oil cart with a green mantle, and entered the house.

Looking at the age and makeup of that noble lady, I think it is the Duchess Meng, wasn't she called into the palace by the queen's mother? Why does it seem like you've come back from a walk in the Yama Temple?

Jin Zifeng was puzzled, but he didn't dare to ask more, and looked inside again, and he didn't know what happened to Gu Jinzhi being called by Grandpa Guo, so he had to leave in a huff.

Meng almost stumbled out of the small oil truck, and if it weren't for the maid to support her, she might have passed out.

Since she became the step-chamber of the Duke of Zhenguo, she has entered the palace countless times for more than ten years, but it is the first time she has heard the queen's cold tone. "This palace has been in this Yonghua Palace for many years, but I also know that all the housewives who can manage the back house properly are not stupid, and of course they can't do it without some means. But then again, a teenage girl, it doesn't matter if she is stupid, there is time for her to learn a little better. What this palace dislikes the most is those who pretend to be smart and think about making waves all day long, the harem is also the queen, the back house is not, such a woman, which man can't afford it. “

One-one-one-one
