"Hehe, isn't he already grown up? He did a good job in Jingzhou, Pei Yun and Mu Shizi didn't come by himself," Su Jin said with a smile, Su Weixin could say that he was not, but he definitely couldn't say that his precious grandson, Su Jin patted Xiao Mocheng's shoulder and said fondly: "I see, after a while, his wings will be stiff, and he doesn't need my old man to worry about him!" "Su Jin never doubted the strength and ability of his grandson.

Su Weixin thought about it carefully, it seemed to be the case, then he had to say that His Royal Highness the Nine Emperor Princes was too good at pretending, and now even he, his own uncle who watched him grow up, couldn't see his joys, sorrows, and sorrows.

However, suddenly Su Jin frowned, and asked Xiao Mocheng, "Cheng'er, why are you reluctant to marry?" If you don't like that girl, there are still a few ladies in the court, you have to marry one sooner or later! ”

Su Weixin also looked up at him when he heard this, this is also what Su Weixin is worried about, he has heard a lot about Jiang Mei and him, but he has always felt that Xiao Mocheng does not care much about etiquette when he interacts with women, and that Jiang doctor girl also saved his life, and it is reasonable that the two have a harmonious relationship.

As soon as he asked about this matter, Xiao Mocheng had a headache, he didn't know how to talk to Su Jin, although Emperor Xiao had promised him to marry Jiang Mei, but I am afraid that Su Jin would have to approve this matter, Su Jin would not agree, and Concubine Su would not agree, so the matter would be troublesome.

Xiao Mocheng's eyes kept rolling, and he couldn't think of a single argument left and right, and finally decided to get straight to the point, so Xiao Mocheng took a long breath. Facing Su Jin and Su Weixin, he said solemnly: "Grandfather, uncle, I want to marry Jiang Mei as my wife!" ”

Su Weixin was so shocked that he almost lost his big teeth, "You....what..."It turns out that some rumors in Beijing are true, and he really has an unusual relationship with that medical girl.

Su Jin didn't react for a while, and asked carefully, "Which family is she?" However, Su Jin thought about it, it seemed that there was no famous family surnamed Jiang in the capital, and he looked at Su Weixin, who was already angry, in surprise, hoping that he could explain what was going on.

Su Weixin took a breath and said to Su Jin: "Jiang Mei is the medical woman who untied the thread for him. Although she is famous among the people. But after all, she is a Jianghu woman. ”

Immediately, Su Weixin looked at Xiao Mocheng and wondered, "How can you marry her as a concubine?" Have you ever wondered if she is likely to be the future queen? "Su Weixin never thought that he would make a Jianghu girl become the mother of the country. It's just incredible.

Su Jin finally understood Jiang Mei's identity, but he was obviously much calmer than Su Weixin. He turned his head sideways and asked, "Cheng'er." Since you like her. It's good to accept her as a concubine, this shouldn't be a difficult thing, and your father will approve it. I'll just talk about your mother's side. ”

Su Jin still didn't want to disappoint Xiao Mocheng, isn't it just a woman, let him get it if he wants.

Xiao Mocheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, if she was willing to be his concubine even if it was a side concubine, he wouldn't have to worry at all, but Xiao Mocheng's understanding of Jiang Mei, she would never go to be a concubine, of course, Xiao Mocheng herself didn't want her to be wronged.

Su Jin saw his look, and he was quite puzzled, he never thought that Xiao Mocheng was a man who would hurt his feelings for his feelings, Xiao Mocheng's name as a playboy, he knew it, he seemed to be amorous but was actually quite ruthless emotionally, which Su Jin agreed with very much, because dedication is taboo for an emperor, although Su Jin was satisfied with the obsession of the two emperors with his daughter, but he didn't think that his grandson would also take such a path.

It's a pity that although Su Jin understands Xiao Mocheng, he doesn't know that there is a kind of person in this world, the more ruthless they are, the more dedicated their hearts are, once he finds the person who makes him dedicated, then he pours all his feelings into her, and that kind of attachment is incomparable to anyone.

When Xiao Mocheng really realized that Jiang Mei was the woman he wanted to spend his life with, his heart was full of persistence, and he would not marry her in this life.

"Grandpa, I won't marry her!" Xiao Mocheng looked at Su Jin fixedly and said resolutely. This is the first time that Xiao Mocheng has revealed his truest heart in front of people.

Su Weixin's eyes widened even more, frowned, and was about to speak out to persuade him, Su Jin raised his hand to him, signaling him not to worry, and then said gently to Xiao Mocheng: "Child, your heart is unexpectedly understood, but grandpa still has to think about this matter..."

Xiao Mocheng saw that Su Jin was at least not in a hurry to object, and his heart relaxed a lot, he estimated in his heart that he would wait for Su Jin's birthday the day after tomorrow and bring Jiang Mei over, and when they saw Jiang Mei, they would definitely be impressed by her demeanor. In this way, Xiao Mocheng played his wishful thinking and helped Su Jin down to the attic.

And Su Weixin was a little stunned behind him, because Xiao Mocheng's persistence of 'not marrying her' just now reminded him of his adult past, he didn't seem to be as persistent as Xiao Mocheng back then, if his father tried to insist on marrying her back, would things have a completely different ending, but at least she should be alive and well now.

But Su Weixin thought about it and it seemed that things were not so simple, back then she only had someone else in her heart, she had fallen in love with that person, and that person was not Su Weixin who often played with her.

Su Weixin shook his head with a wry smile, more than thirty years have passed, why is he still thinking about it?

The 23rd day of the 14th year of Dahuan Jingxi is the traditional stove sacrifice festival, this day both the court and the people have large-scale worship ceremonies, every year at this time Emperor Xiao will personally take a hundred officials to worship the god of the stove, for the coming year's wind and rain and the people's warmth and worry-free prayers.

However, what makes the people of the capital talk about this year is not how grand this year's stove festival is, but the 70th birthday banquet of the old lady Su of the Su family, the head of the Dahuan Anointing Rice and nobles. Dahuan has two veteran merits, one is Pei Yan, who was named Taifu, and the other is Su Jin, who was named Taibao.

However, compared to Pei Yan, Su Jin's reputation in the court is greater than his, and now Pei Yan's reputation has been greatly damaged because of the last battle of Luoshan for allegedly designing to kill Yun Lingbo's family, and the government and the opposition are all hindering Pei Yun and not pursuing too much. But in his heart, he was faintly contemptuous of Pei Yan. Even Pei Yun himself didn't expect that the events of the year were planned by Pei Yan, and every time he thought about it, he was like a stalk.

Therefore, Su Jin seems to be the most respected hero of Dahuan, and his 70th birthday is even more exciting. Of course, the people don't all care about his birthday banquet as an old man, but they care more about the luxurious style of a generation of nobles.

Su Jin's eldest son Su Weixin is young and tall, and his body is clear and good-looking, and Su Weixin's eldest son Su Junyi is even more moist and beautiful. Known as the most beautiful man in the capital. Several other beautiful sons are also the talk of people after dinner. Therefore, the people of the capital are happy to talk about Su Taibao's birthday banquet.

Early in the morning of the 24th, red lanterns were hung outside the door of the Su family, and the entire mansion was also dressed up elegantly and luxuriously. Although after many days of cooking. The whole house is ready. But the two butlers, Su Yi and Su Shao, both stood in the side hall and carefully instructed the servants. A large number of servants then rushed out and returned to their respective areas of responsibility in an orderly manner to do the final inventory.

Too often Su Weizhen because of his own residence and a clear post. So he went back home early, after all, today's birthday banquet was handled by him, and Su Weixin only asked a few words during the period, and all the matters were handed over to him to deal with. But despite today's busy government, Su Weixin also returned to his house in the afternoon.

As soon as Su Weixin entered the mansion, he asked Su Shao, "What about the second son?" The second son in Su Weixin's mouth refers to his eldest son Su Junyi, although people outside the mansion have always called Su Junyi the eldest son of the Su family, but all the sons and nephews in the Su Mansion are ranked together, Su Junyi is smaller than Su Weizhen's eldest son Su Baiqiu, so the mansion has always called him the second son, and then Su Tan and Su Weiheng's son Su Qi.

Su Baiqiu, the commander of the horses, has always been quiet and doesn't like to go out, and the captain of the horses is even more of an idle position, so he is also idle. However, more leisurely than him is Su Junyi, Su Junyi is over twenty-two years old, one does not marry a wife, and the other refuses to serve in the court. Whenever he is in Beijing, he is either listening to music in the major pavilions in the capital, or studying the music with his military advisor Dongfang Zhan in the mansion of the Seventh Prince Xiao Moheng. And Su Junyi just concentrated on these elegant arts, and had no intention of making a statement.

For Su Weixin's question, Su Shao has a headache, the most divine dragon in the whole house is this Junyi son, but there is no way, the old man favors Xiao Mocheng first, and Su Junyi second, although Su Junyi has an elegant temperament, but he is not a good lord to serve, for example, at this critical moment, there is no shadow of the second son.

Su Shao pressed his head and replied in a low voice: "The second son seems to have something to go out and hasn't come back yet..."

"Nonsense! I'm too used to him on weekdays, go, go and send someone to get him back for me! Su Weixin's face was angry, his whole face collapsed and reprimanded, he kept panting, Su Weixin is not a person who is easy to get angry, but once he is angry, his face is very ugly, and when he is angry, his chest is stuffy, and God doesn't want this elegant and hopeful prime minister to lose a bit of image.

Seeing this, Su Shao immediately retreated, and sighed in his heart, in fact, it is no wonder that the always gentle old man will be angry, on such an important day, hundreds of people in the entire mansion are busy coming in and out, but the second son is the same as no one, and the old man can't help but not be angry.

However, Su Shao estimated that this person should not be difficult to find, presumably he must be in the Seven Princes' Mansion. When Su Shao was about to step out of the second door and was about to order someone to go to King Ling's Mansion to find it, he bumped into a person head-on, Su Shao thought that it was a servant who was not long-eyed to block his way, and was about to scold with anger on his face,

But as soon as he raised his head, his face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny, and he smiled with a sigh of relief: "Ouch, the second son, you can come back, the master is angry in the hall!" Su Shao immediately turned sideways and let Su Junyi come in first, Su Junyi, who was dressed in a blue robe, chuckled indifferently when he heard this, and didn't seem to care at all, just nodded lightly and walked inside.

When Su Junyi entered the inner hall, he saw Su Qi pouring wine for his father, and when he saw Su Junyi striding in, he immediately greeted with a smile: "Second brother, do you want to drink hot wine!" ”

Compared with Su Tan, Su Junyi preferred this well-behaved and obedient cousin, and when he heard the sound, he immediately smiled at him and nodded.

Then he looked at Su Weixin fearlessly, and Su Weixin was glaring at him without saying a word, and that look seemed to tell Su Junyi. Let Su Junyi give him an explanation, Su Junyi is not afraid of his father who lives in Zaifu at all,

First, Su Weixin loves all the sons and nephews in the house, otherwise he would not let himself go without marrying a wife for so many years, and secondly, Su Junyi has always been casual, and Su Weixin can't manage it if he wants to, so that now Su Weixin has pinned all his expectations on his youngest son Su Tan and nephew Su Qi, since Su Qi entered Beijing, he either followed Su Jin to read poetry and books, or listened to and taught by Su Weixin's side, Su Weixin liked this nephew's well-behaved and intelligent very much.

And Su Tan is also a lot more obedient than Su Junyi. In fact, strictly speaking, Su Tan is not obedient, he can only say that he is willing to pay for the interests of the family, Su Tan feels that the children and nephews of the Su family should stand up for the glorious lintel. As for his brother Su Junyi's behavior, although he persuaded him many times, after many unsuccessful times, he didn't say much, and finally he had to tell himself that he couldn't let the elders in the family down.

Su Junyi glanced at Su Weixin's gloomy face, and immediately replied: "Father, today's grandfather's birthday, I naturally want to prepare a birthday gift for my grandfather, just left the house to repeatedly confirm that there is nothing wrong with this matter, the father is not strange, the son is not an unreasonable person, and the house is also ready, and I have nothing to do, so I took the time to go out." ”

What Su Junyi said was also true, Su Weizhen didn't arrange for him to do anything at all, because Su Weizhen knew that Su Junyi was unreliable.

Su Weixin listened to his defense, his face softened a lot, and he thought that now was not the time to settle accounts with him, so he would be busy with today's talk first, so Su Weixin took a sip of hot wine, "You will greet guests in the front hall today!" Su Weixin instructed as he drank.

Su Junyi's face immediately frowned when he heard Yanjun, the last thing Su Junyi wanted to do was to be good at dancing with people with long sleeves, and immediately refused: "Father, let Su Tan do this, he is more suitable." ”

Su Weixin immediately put down his wine glass when he heard this, he knew that Su Junyi didn't like this kind of thing, but after all, Su Junyi had an elegant temperament, how many people came for the fame of the Su family, Su Weixin wanted him to receive visitors in the front hall with Su Tan, and he just took the opportunity to give him some hardship.

Su Weixin didn't get angry, but just threw a sentence coldly, "Your mother has already shown you a daughter-in-law, and she will let you marry early next year........."
