Chapter 237: Hypocrisy
The night is like a beast lurking and waiting for an opportunity, and a conspiracy begins to unfold under the cover of its huge body.
Lu Yu, who was in the Protector's Mansion, almost didn't close his eyes all night, and the news of the secret guards' investigation was also sent to his desk from time to time.
In just one night, he already had nearly twenty messages at hand.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Lu Yu exhaled a breath of turbidity, and when he opened his eyes again, a trace of tiredness under his eyes had disappeared. The eyes are sharp and clear.
"Lu Er, send all the news to Grandpa Guo, and help me tell me that I will leave Beijing for a few days. The affairs of Jingzhong troubled him to take care of one or two. Lu Yu called Lu Er into the room, handed him the note, and then got up and walked out of the small study.
Lu Er took the order and left, and Lu Yi followed him back to the bedroom to change his clothes. The two rode out of the Protectorate Mansion together.
Le Shaoyuan went to the court as usual in the early morning of this day, and Le Xi and Le Yu also went to Wufuyuan to ask An Yingmao.
But early in the morning, I found that Wei Le's mother and daughter, who were about to move out of the house for a few days, were actually sitting in the house, and Wei Lin pulled Yi Niang and whispered something.
"How's your mother?"
After the brother and sister asked for peace, Yu's unprecedented care was unprecedented.
Le Yu frowned involuntarily, Le Xi's eyes flashed, and he replied with a slight smile: "Xiaoxi cares about my grandmother for my mother, my mother is in good spirits, she eats and sleeps well, but the closer she gets to give birth, the more bulky her body becomes." ”
Yu snorted, and said, "Your father sent someone to say in the morning, and the Protector Nunnery will welcome you in advance." Your mother is heavy, and your third aunt went away with your third uncle. I thought about asking your aunt and second aunt to help one or two, so as not to be too flustered and what went wrong. ”
In ancient times, the process of marrying a girl from dowry to consummation of marriage was complicated and trivial. Especially in a noble family like the Hou Mansion. For the sake of the dignity of the Hou Mansion, but the slightest joke can't be made.
When Le Xi heard this, he glanced at Wei Le's family, thinking that this was originally invited by the Yu family.
"It's up to my grandmother." Le Xi blessed the body and responded to the Tao.
When it comes to marriage, she can't ask a lot about a boudoir woman, and Yu's arrangement is for someone to use it. Anyway, if you don't do a good job, you'll lose face. It is also a loss of Yu's face. What's more, there is the Li family in the back, so there will be no big mess.
Seeing that Le Xi deserved to be so refreshing, Yu Shi was a little unaccustomed to it. This granddaughter hadn't been close to her since she made a big fuss in front of her. Today, this is another matter of seizing power, or is it tied to her, and it is actually like this.
Yu Shi looked at Le Xi's gaze with suspicion. It's just her calm and watery expression. She couldn't understand what she was thinking.
After gathering his thoughts, Yu Shi said again: "Although it is a little rushed, but you are the wife of the prince, and the wedding clothes are regulated, as long as the wedding date is set and reported to the palace, the clothing bureau will rush to make it." There is no need to worry about this aspect, but the four-season clothes for the first year of the wedding still have to be prepared, but have you thought about which shop to formulate? ”
Le Xi replied without thinking about it: "The clothes and decorations are all handed over to the Nishang Pavilion and her granddaughter's own jewelry shop." ”
"Nishang Pavilion. I don't know if I will rush out a dozen sets of ready-to-wear clothes in such a short time. Or scatter to other ready-to-wear stores?! ”
Listen. Le Xi felt a little strange, how could Yu Shi be concerned about these things today.
Frowning secretly, Le Xi replied: "No need, Nishang Pavilion will definitely take it, and the granddaughter still has some friendship with them." ”
Yu Shi smiled, and was about to say something, when Wang's slightly higher and thin voice came from the door. She brought the Lehong siblings in.
Seeing that the Lexi brothers and sisters were still there, and they didn't open after greeting them as usual, they couldn't help but be surprised, and looked at them sideways and said: "Yo, it's rare to see that the prince is still here with his mother today, I heard that the prince is studying hard day and night for the autumn season, so you have to pay attention to your body." ”
Le Yu didn't even give Wang a look, and he only snorted lightly at this slightly harsh word.
The smile on Wang's lips froze, but he didn't expect Le Yu to ignore her with such an attitude. Seeing that his son glanced at himself reproachfully, he had to shut up and say hello to Wei Leshi instead.
At this time, the Yu family also told the Wang family about Lexi's marriage in advance, and the Wang family opened his mouth in surprise and said: "Ah, isn't this Protector Mansion doing this, isn't it obvious that we Xi'er will be happy?!" The whole capital knows about the fact that the old lady of the protector is not in good health, why does the Hou Ye also respond? ! ”
It was obviously a happy event, but it came out of Wang's mouth, but it was forcibly blocked.
Yu Shi also frowned when he heard this, and looked at Wang Shi with displeasure.
"If the second aunt's words are heard by the protector, I am afraid that it will be inappropriate. What is not happy, as if it is cursing people. Trouble comes from the mouth, and the second aunt's unobstructed temperament still has to be changed. Le Xi raised his eyes and looked straight at Wang, and he was also unhappy in his heart.
Wang's is really underdrawn!
Being countered by the general's bad thoughts, Wang's face suddenly turned iron-blue, and he wanted to distinguish it again, but Yu glared at her and hurriedly opened her mouth.
"When I talked about ready-to-wear, I also wanted to do something. There is a draft in March, Xiaoxi, your three sisters have to be selected, and they have already let other ready-to-wear shops make clothes, but I think that so many people are running, your sisters must not be too ordinary. ”
"As soon as you mentioned that Nishang Pavilion has a relationship with you, can you ask Xiaoxi to talk to the shopkeeper and make three sets for each of your three sisters... Well, two sets of ready-to-wear. It's good to lose the dignity of the Hou Mansion. ”
Le Xi laughed after hearing this, no wonder the Yu family was concerned about the Li family and her marriage, so he had this kind of idea.
I'm going to use her!
Le Xi tilted his head, supported his cheek with his right hand, and leaned leisurely. looked like a smile, swept around the three sisters whose eyes were shining.
"What's so difficult about this, it's just to say to the shopkeeper that the shopkeeper will come today. So I told him yes. ”
Telling the other person and saying yes are two different things.
Yu Shi didn't understand the deep meaning, and suddenly a wrinkled old face smiled like a chrysanthemum. Wei Lin and the three of them all got up to thank Le Xi.
Le Xi didn't avoid it, and accepted their salute directly, and her bright eyes flashed and flashed: "Sisters, don't be polite, I'm just saying, shouldn't the other party know yet." ”
Hearing this, not only did the three of them stiffen when they just stood up, but even Yu's smiling face froze. Stared straight at her with anger in his eyes.
Le Xi was not afraid at all, and got up with a smile, "Grandmother, the hour is not early, and Xiao Xi will retire without anything else." ”
As he spoke, Le Xi was about to walk up, but found that Le Yu did not move.
Usually he left with her, and this abnormality made her look at him suspiciously, only to see that he was staring at a maid behind Lehong by mistake...... (To be continued......)
