Chapter 130: Urging Marriage
The palace banquet lasted until it was almost unitary, and after leaving the palace gate, Rong Wan breathed a sigh of relief, and accompanied the Qi family and Rong Jun to sit in the carriage.
After Luo Jingyu returned, he rode a horse together.
In the carriage, Qi closed his eyes and rested, Rong Wan and Rong Jun were beside Qi on the left and right, the two happened to be opposite, Rong Jun was quiet when he first got into the carriage, but when he was on the road, he became more and more restless.
"Sister, do you know any lady in the palace?"
When the palace maid came to call Rong Wan, Rong Jun was fascinated by watching the play, and when she came back to her senses, Rong Wan was gone, and the palace didn't want to ask much, so she endured it all the time, and planned to talk about it after returning home.
But in the carriage couldn't help it.
Rong Wan nodded, "It's my uncle's cousin Yanran, and now I am the side concubine of His Royal Highness the Prince, and when Cousin Yanran got married, you were still young, so you haven't seen it." ”
Rong Jun nodded thoughtfully, and asked again, "Then does Cousin Yanran have a good relationship with Sister A?" I saw that my cousin didn't talk to my mother? ”
Rong Wan paused, subconsciously looked at Qi, but saw that Qi's eyes were open at this time, although no one didn't look at it, but Rong Wan felt that she seemed to have some emotions.
While pondering, he spoke more carefully, "Ah Jun is wrong, I have some holidays with Cousin Yanran, and Cousin Yanran called me over to warn me, if she is unhappy, she can kill me at any time." ”
Rong Jun was taken aback, then frowned and said, "Then what should I do?" If her cousin insists on scheming, Sister You'll be miserable, Sister. You don't want to go to the palace again, maybe if you don't enter the palace, she won't be able to remember you. ”
Originally, Rong Wan thought the same thing, but after this incident, this idea was self-defeating.
But I heard Qi Shi say coldly, "Where can you hide?" How could the crown princess and the crown princess be as simple as a word difference? ”
Then he closed his eyes and continued to close his eyes.
At this time, it is naturally not as simple as Rong Jun said, and Qi also reminded her not to think that this matter can be turned into a big thing and a small matter. This matter will probably become a thorn in Qi Yanran's heart forever. Every time I think about it, although the thorn is small, the sting hurts fiercely.
Rong Wan discerned his meaning and knew that Qi's intentions were good. Then he obediently said yes.
Then he looked up at Rong Jundao. "Ah Jun can rest assured. I'm fine. ”
Rong Jun's face was still Qi Qiran, although she heard Rong Wan so comforted, she still couldn't convince herself not to be afraid.
Rong Wan saw her appearance clearly. In her heart, although she is now nearly thirteen years old, the youngest child in Luofu is a woman, and she rarely goes out, so her temperament is a little soft, and her temperament is lively, no different from when she was ten years old, she can't leave Rong Jun alone in the mansion.
Qi also knew this, so he called Rong Wan to the main courtyard, and let her take Rong Jun to see more people when she went out.
When they arrived in the mansion, Qi and Rong Jun were a little tired, so they wanted to go back to rest, but Rong Wan walked slower, almost walking with Luo Jingyu.
When she arrived at Ganlin Courtyard, Rong Wan was about to say goodbye to Luo Jingyu, but when she saw Luo Jingyu glancing at Qi's Tong Rong Jun who had just entered the second gate, she turned her head and looked at Rong Wan with a serious expression, "Ah Wan, come with me to the study." ”
Rong Wan was stunned, I don't know why Luo Jingyu was so serious, but she still went to the study with Luo Jingyu.
Rong Wan stood in front of Luo Jingyu and asked, "Brother, what happened?" ”
Luo Jingyu frowned, "Awan, did you go to the East Palace today?" ”
Rong Wan was stunned, the male and female guests were seated separately, and Qi Yanran directly sent the palace maid to look for her, the palace maid naturally wouldn't even be able to find the way to the imperial garden, but how could the troublesome male guest know?
Rong Wan nodded in response, and then said, "When I came out of Concubine Qi's palace, I was called by the aunt next to the crown princess, saying that the crown princess was waiting for me. ”
Luo Jingyu didn't speak in a hurry, she thought about it, except for the crown prince, the status of the crown princess is naturally the highest, and she knows that it is normal for the side concubine to enter the palace.
"Awan, when I went to the banquet today, the prince went out for a trip, but when he came back, he said two words to me."
Saying that, Luo Jingyu paused and continued, "I was sitting at the end of the banquet, but the prince came directly to find me, I think the prince doesn't know me, but Awan, why do you say the prince will talk to me?"
Luo Jingyu was puzzled, but when she looked up at Rong Wan, her eyes became clear, a little complicated, and there was a deep sense of powerlessness, "Later, the prince's attendant asked me, how old are you?" Have you ever promised to be married? ”
Rong Wan was stunned, and suddenly understood what Luo Jingyu meant, she was just silent and didn't speak.
Luo Jingyu continued, "I told the truth, and the attendant frowned and left. ”
It's just that after the attendant left, the panic in his heart still didn't decrease, but it became worse as time went by, so he was absent-minded all the way, and after returning to the mansion, he informed Rong Wan of the matter.
Today's prince is romantic, better and beautiful, although Rong Wan is not a captivating posture, but still has a different posture, cool and not proud, easy-going but not approachable, humble but not humble, can only be viewed from a distance, not blasphemous.
Looking at the concubines in the East Palace, Cai Yuji was born in a Confucian family, and has been taught since childhood, although some families are poor, they are still generous, more like everyone's ladies, and Qi Yanran always looks cold and arrogant, but now in the deep palace, she is more inclined to the small jasper, and the daughters of the generals stationed in Guan and the daughters of the Hubu Shangshu are very different from Rong Wan.
Rong Wan didn't know when she had met the prince, so the prince's question was a bit clueless.
Thinking about it, Rong Wan said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never seen me, how can you make the attendants come and ask?" ”
Luo Jingyu sighed, "The problem must be in the East Palace!" ”
In the East Palace, the only two masters who have seen Rong Wan are the crown princess and Qi Yanran, today Qi Yanran still wants to kill her with a rod, so naturally she will not be introduced into the East Palace to be the prince's favorite concubine, if that is the case, it will be more difficult for Qi Yanran to avenge her for ruining her name.
And the crown princess was kind to her today. also invited her to grow into the palace to accompany her, which complemented the prince's intentions, if this is the case, I am afraid that she will be the princess.
It's just that if she enters the palace, what's the benefit?
Let's not talk about this matter for the time being, not to mention that she still has a marriage contract on her, if the prince really accepts her as a concubine, he really has to take care of his reputation, and snatching the wife of an official is enough to anger the saint.
For a while, the prince should not act rashly. As long as there is time. She wouldn't be so passive.
Thinking about it, Rong Wan looked at Luo Jingyu and said with relief, "Brother, don't worry." I was married. The prince will not act rashly. ”
Luo Jingyu paused. In his heart, it was different from what Rong Wan thought, he remembered the prince he saw yesterday and drank a few glasses of wine. His expression was a little intoxicated, and his body had to be supported by his attendants, and his eyes lit up a little when he spoke to Luo Jingyu.
When the attendant wanted to take him away, he was scolded loudly, no matter how you look at it, it won't be a generation of Ming Jun, an official's wife, you can't take it, I'm afraid it's not so useful!
It's just that the matter has come to this point, I don't know how others will move, and I always feel as if I have been caught, he thought, why don't I hurry up and ask Meng Sheng when I will marry Awan.
Thinking of this, Luo Jingyu's heart was a little more stable.
Rong Wan saw that Luo Jingyu's expression returned to normal, afraid that he would remember this matter, and she couldn't sleep at night, so she said something else, "Brother, the period of filial piety has passed, when will you take office?" ”
Although he is the left patrol envoy of the Qipin Army, he is still an official, and he is still much older than ordinary people.
Luo Jingyu nodded, he has been idle at home for a year, it is time to take office, no matter what, his mother and sister are waiting for him to protect, "I'll go to the ministry tomorrow to ask." ”
"Well, if my brother is fine, I'll go back first."
Luo Jingyu glanced at Rong Wan again and sighed, "Try not to enter and leave the East Palace in the future, go back!" ”
Rong Wan responded, and then left the study.
She should think about it, if the prince really has the intention of accepting her, what should she do, go and tell Meng Sheng to propose marriage as soon as possible? She couldn't seem to open her mouth.
Both Wenming and Najib had done it before Luo Qian's death, and all that was left was to wait for the man to send the bride price, and then choose a suitable day for marriage, and then the man's guests would greet him, and finally the candles in the cave room.
And Luo Jingyu just flashed the idea of euphemistically reminding Meng Sheng today, and went to Meng's mansion the next day.
Not long after Meng Sheng got out of the morning court, he was thinking about business in the study, and he heard the attendant say that Luo Jingyu had arrived in the mansion, and hurriedly went out to greet him, but when he went out, he saw Luo Jingyu looking sad, and he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, so he asked, "What's wrong with Brother Jingyu?" ”
Luo Jingyu shook his head helplessly, "Go in and say." ”
After speaking, he plunged into Meng Sheng's study, Meng Sheng paused, and followed.
The two sat opposite each other, neither of them made a sound, Meng Sheng was waiting for Luo Jingyu to speak, but Luo Jingyu didn't know where to start.
After seeing it for two quarters of an hour, Luo Jingyu always opened his mouth to speak, but he stopped frequently, Meng Sheng couldn't wait any longer, and opened his mouth, "Brother Jingyu has something to say, it's okay." ”
Luo Jingyu finally glanced at Meng Sheng deeply, although he felt embarrassed, for the sake of his sister, he still opened his mouth, "Brother Meng, Awan is now out of the filial piety period, I don't know when you plan to marry Awan?" ”
Meng Sheng choked on Luo Jingyu's words, stroked his forehead with his hand, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were as gentle as before, "Don't hide it from Brother Jingyu, I've been busy with the bride price for the past few days, and I haven't had time to go, but who knows that Brother Jingyu came to mention it first." ”
Luo Jingyu coughed dryly, extremely embarrassed, if he knew that Meng Sheng was already preparing, he would not come, but he didn't know, so he could only accept this oolong.
However, he still didn't mention the prince's affairs, he didn't know, if the prince obstructed him, Meng Sheng would let go, but he wanted to come to the holy decree was rejected by Meng Sheng, and Meng Sheng should not mind the prince's affairs.
He was still happy to learn that Meng Sheng had this intention, so he said a few more words to Meng Sheng and went back to the house.
Meng Sheng could only shake his head helplessly when he saw Luo Jingyu leaving, thinking that Luo Jingyu would come out of the battlefield in blood and have more anger on his body, but who knew that since he returned to Beijing, he has been protecting his sister like this.
As long as Rong Wan is doing well, he will be happy, with this brother, Ah Wan She has had a good life in the past few years, I don't know if she has forgotten, there was such a person before, who took her joys, sorrows and sorrows as the top priority, and even risked her life.
Meng Sheng stood silently for a while, then turned his head and went back to the study, trying his best to solve the problem given by the saint, only if he was promoted, Awan would not be bullied and persecuted.
He will do his best to protect her for the rest of his life.
Rong Wan stayed at home for the past two days and did not go out, and was carefully teaching Rong Jun to make up for the blank in Rong Jun's heart in the past two years.
Not long after Rong Jun came over today, Rong Wanfang said a few words to her, and then saw Yinglu walking in from outside the house excitedly, with a red face, and happily called Rong Wan a lady.
Rong Wan was stunned for a moment, she didn't know what happened to Yinglu today, why she was so happy, so she glanced at Bai Yao, Bai Yao understood, and hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Yinglu's arm and said, "Ah Lu, why are you so happy?" ”
Firefly Green laughed twice, glanced at Bai Yao, then turned to look at Rong Wan, and said directly to Rong Wan, "The new aunt is here to send a dowry, and I am talking to my wife in the outer courtyard at this time!" ”
As soon as these words fell, Rong Wan realized what Firefly was happy about, she was watching her own lady's joke?
Thinking about it, Rong Wan frowned, looked at Bai Yao, and said as if she was angry, "Bai Yao, pull her out and tickle her." ”
Bai Yao was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips tightly to keep herself from laughing, and dragged the firefly out of the room, and after a while, there was a laugh like a silver bell of firefly green, mixed with the slightest cry for mercy.
Rong Wan didn't speak, and the outside continued.
Rong Jun looked at Rong Wan with wide eyes, stretched out her finger and pointed, "Sister, you seem to be blushing." ”
Rong Wan was stunned for a moment, subconsciously reached out to cover her cheek, and came back to her senses, but saw that Rong Jun also covered her mouth with her hand, for fear that she would laugh out loud, Rong Wan walked to the bronze mirror, and saw that her face was as usual, and couldn't help but be annoyed, she was actually tricked by Rong Jun.
Thinking about it, Rong Wan walked up to Rong Jun and said, "Copy "The Mean" today and give it to me before going to bed." ”
Rong Jun suddenly cried and said, "Sister, how can you physically punish students?" ”
Rong Wan glanced at her, ignored her face and said, "I'm your sister, it's natural to discipline my sister, go ahead, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep peacefully tonight." ”
Rong Jun had no choice but to find a pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and spread out "The Mean" to copy.
Rong Wan saw that Rong Jun was honest, so she walked out, and saw that Bai Yao and Yinglu were still messing around, so she coughed dryly twice, and when Bai Yao Yinglu stopped standing in front of Rong Wan, Rong Wan said, "Bai Yao, you go to the front yard to watch, when Meng Langjun is leaving, please wait a while, I have something to say." ”
Bai Yao answered, and walked out of the courtyard step by step.
Firefly Green took two steps forward, bowed to Rong Wan and said, "Lady, the maid knows that she is wrong." ”
Rong Wan nodded, glanced at Yinglu, and saw that she was a little disheveled because of the trouble, so she said, "Whole clothes, what does it look like?" ”
Firefly stuck out her tongue before reaching out to tidy it up. (To be continued.) )
