Chapter 276: Trade-offs

"Yesterday, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion sent someone to send an invitation, saying that we were invited to go to the house the day after tomorrow to enjoy the plums, to put it bluntly, people are very fond of Saburo, it depends on our attitude." Huangfu looked at Shen Qingli with crooked eyebrows, and said with a smile, "On the day of the garden party, although I didn't see the two daughters of their Hou Mansion, but the Dingyuan Hou Mansion is a scholarly family, and the daughter who was raised must not be wrong." ”

In the past two years, Dingyuan Hou often said that he was sick and did not go out, and he did not like to socialize with people, and his life was not as good as a year, but Mu Yunxuan was Langjun in the second room after all, and this family affair was still a good match no matter how you looked at it.

Otherwise, Mrs. Hou would not have returned to the Yongding Marquis Mansion to see the plum blossoms, and she didn't want to try her best to promote this marriage.

The Huangfu clan naturally understands that if the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion wants to make a comeback, most of them have to rely on these three daughters, because the prince of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion is only eight years old, and he is expected to take up the important task of reviving the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, I am afraid that he will have to wait for the last ten years and eight years.

The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Dingyuan Mansion married a cousin of Mrs. Sun's mother's family three years ago, and followed her husband to Yuzhou on an errand and did not come back often, so the Marquis of Dingyuan relied more on the two daughters to be married.

It's just that over the years, there is no high or low, and there is no one who is satisfied with picking and choosing.

is very fond of Mu Fu Saburo Mu Yunxuan.

Although Dingyuan Hou has not made any meritorious achievements in the past two years, his connections for many years are still there, if Mu Yunchao becomes his son-in-law, it will naturally help Mu Yunxuan's career in the future.

On the second side of the room, the second old man Mu Changfeng has been like this in this life, and he will not cause trouble. It's done.

Mu Yunchao can't count on it, even if Wu Shunde doesn't drag his feet, even if he burns high incense, can he still be expected to carry this son-in-law?

Therefore, San Lang Mu Yunxuan's family affairs can't be sloppy, and the second room has to cultivate a pillar to support the family business.

If you can marry the Marquis of Dingyuan, it is also a good choice.

The Huangfu clan has the plans of the Huangfu clan.

What Mrs. Tai said is very true, on the day of the garden party, the slave maid had seen the two daughters of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion with her own eyes, and in terms of appearance, the third lady was better than the second lady. If you talk about temperament. The slave felt that the second miss was more calm and serious, and the third miss was a lively character. Mama Chu tried her best to recall.

"With Saburo's temperament, he naturally has to be matched with a calm and dignified person to complement each other!" Huangfu picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. Said disapprovingly. "Anyway, Saburo will have to go when the time comes. Whoever he likes is whoever he likes, and getting married is a big deal. Of course, you have to let him choose the one he likes. ”

"Grandmother, I heard Erlang say that the third brother still belongs to Miss Chen Er in his heart, and said that if he can't marry Miss Chen Er, he would rather never marry." Shen Qingli took the opportunity to say, "Although the third brother is a taciturn character, he is very assertive, even if my grandmother has other plans, my granddaughter-in-law thinks it is better to listen to the third brother's opinion first." ”

With her understanding of Mu Yunxuan, most of them would not accept this family affair of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

Instead of tossing and going to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to admire the plum and then express his position, it is better to refuse directly.

"I know San Lang's thoughts, but Miss Chen's secret illness is really unacceptable." Huangfu sighed and said, "I'm just worried that San Lang is still young now, and he likes Miss Chen Er with a hot brain, and he will not marry for life, if he really becomes a relative, and he feels the desolation of having no children under his knees, it will be useless to regret it at that time, who is willing to marry his daughter to him as a concubine." ”

Then doesn't he have no sons and daughters all his life, how can he raise his head in front of people in the future?

When Shen Qingli heard this, she suddenly didn't know what to say, after all, what the Huangfu clan said was not unreasonable, as an elder, she knew that Miss Chen Er could not have children, and it was not deliberately embarrassing to disagree with Miss Chen Er marrying, but Mu Yunxuan was in his youth and insisted on marrying his beloved, which was understandable.

Neither side looks wrong.

It's up to who makes the compromise in the end.

In the end, the Huangfu clan still obeyed Shen Qingli's advice, and asked Mama Chu to call Mu Yunxuan over to ask, who knew that Mu Yunxuan's attitude was very firm, that is, Miss Chen Er would not marry, and said that if there were no heirs in the future, it would be good to pass on a son and a half daughter from Shilang.

was so angry that the Huangfu clan looked for a feather duster everywhere to beat him: "Are you going crazy or what's wrong?" How do you know that someone else is willing to pass on a child to your name? ”

Mu Yunxuan stood there motionless, silent, and his expression was extremely determined.

Xu is often reading in the house, a handsome face is as white as jade, the light blue robe shows that his figure is extraordinarily slender and straight, coupled with the bookish air exuded from his body, he is a gentle and jade-like Pianjun Langjun.

Thinking of such a young talent, there will be no successor in the future, Huangfu's heart was mixed, seeing that Mu Yunxuan was silent, he continued to persuade bitterly: "San Lang, although you are young, but you also grew up reading the sage book, you naturally know that there are three unfilial pieties, and there is no queen, if we don't know Miss Chen's secret disease, it's fine, but now we know that she can't give birth, and you still insist on marrying her into the door, you say that you are not asking for hardship!" ”

Mu Yunxuan knelt on the ground in his robe, and said straightly: "Grandson begs grandmother to fulfill it, if he can't get his wish, he would rather be alone for the rest of his life." ”

At this time, the Liu family hurriedly walked in, saw Mu Yunxuan kneeling on the ground, and hurriedly exclaimed: "Oh, San Lang, what's wrong with you?" How did you make your grandmother angry? ”

Mama Chu explained in a low voice on the side.

Liu Shi also cried, poked Mu Yunxuan, and cried: "You said that you have a demonic disease, why do you have to marry that Miss Chen, you can't give birth to a son and a half daughter if you marry in, what do you say you are doing." ”

Shen Qingli suddenly fidgeted a little, and hurriedly got up to say goodbye.

It's better to rely on Mu Yunxuan directly.

More on that later.

Huangfu nodded, and asked Mama Chu to prepare a soft sedan chair to send Shen Qingli back.

As soon as he walked out of the door, Shen Qingli heard the reprimand of the Huangfu clan behind him: "Liu, what do you say you are crying for the New Year?" I'm not confused! One by one, you don't take it into account. Anyway, I've already taken the post from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, as for whether to go or not, you can do it! ”

"Mother, don't be angry, wait for your daughter-in-law to go back and persuade Saburo." The Liu family dragged Mu Yunxuan away.

"Mother doesn't have to persuade me, I've made up my mind." Mu Yunxuan broke free of Liu's hand and walked away.

Angry, Liu stomped his feet: "Why did I raise you such an unconscious person, do you have to anger us to death?" ”

When I returned to the house, I saw that Mu Changfeng Xiumu was at home, and he didn't go out, so he couldn't help but complain: "Shilang belongs to the Wu family." I didn't want to. Now San Lang insists on marrying Miss Chen Er, you say that Miss Chen Er can't have children, why do you marry back? There's no need to be blocked. ”

Mu Changfeng was sitting on a chair drinking tea leisurely, listening to what Liu said. Said disapprerovingly: "What's wrong with not being able to have children?" Xia can't give birth either. When the time comes, I will carry another aunt. The important thing is that as long as you can climb the family business of the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

Liu was a little surprised.

Didn't Mu Changfeng originally disagree with this family business? Why did you suddenly change your mind and attitude now?

Mu Changfeng continued: "You think, if it weren't for Second Miss Chen, she wouldn't have been able to give birth. Can it be our second room? I also want to open these days, the heir is important, but the future is also important, for our second room, take 10,000 steps back, and Shiro will continue to have an heir, not to mention that I have to worry about whether Miss Chen Er can have children. ”

Liu was dumbfounded.

After a pause, he asked again: "Then, will you still go to the plum appreciation party of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion?" ”

"Go, why not?" Mu Changfeng said with a pleasant face, "Anyway, this matter is not clear, it's just tacit, the day after tomorrow, you take Siniang and Wu Niang to go, maybe you can show Siniang and Wu Niang a good family, if it is Mrs. Hou, mention this matter, just deal with the past vaguely, and say that the mother has to make the decision." ”

Anyway, it is impossible for the Huangfu clan to go to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to see any plum blossoms.

Liu Shi nodded hurriedly yes, seeing that Mu Changfeng's eyes were becoming softer and softer, his face flushed slightly, and asked, "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”

"Let's go to dinner together!" Mu Changfeng took advantage of the situation to hold her hand and said softly, "Rest early after eating." ”

Liu's mind couldn't help but be overjoyed, although the two were husband and wife, but he hadn't been exposed to her body for a long time, she was not yet forty years old, and it was when a woman's energy was at its peak......

The next day, the two hugged each other with a smile on their eyebrows and walked in the garden, and met Mu Shuang who came to ask for peace, and Liu Shi also said very enthusiastically: "Wu Niang, tomorrow my mother will take you and your fourth sister to Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to enjoy the plum blossoms, you can wear new clothes for the New Year, that is, I don't see much jewelry for you, and I will take you to Ruyi Lou to pick out a few headdresses later, you are getting older and older year by year, and you naturally have to dress up well when you go out as a guest." ”

Mu Shuang was flattered and said: "Thank you mother, my daughter has enough jewelry to wear, so she doesn't have to spend silver." ”

"Wu Niang, the elder can't give up, since your mother wants to buy it for you, you just have to pick it." Mu Changfeng smiled, "Don't be so polite to your father and mother. ”

It's rare for Liu's mouth to let blood, don't be in vain!

"Yes." Mu Shuang had to bless herself again.

On the sixth day of the first month of the twentieth year of Baoqing, the capital was still immersed in the festive atmosphere, but the Western Regions began to provoke on the border of Youzhou.

Going together were the grandfather of the country, Xia Yan, the prince of the Jin Dynasty, the prince of the Jin Dynasty, and the military squire Xu Youze, all of whom were close relatives of the prince.

Xia Yan had already inquired, but it was just a small group of thieves making trouble, and it was easy to exterminate it.

The intention of this trip is not to resist the enemy, but to make a war merit and put gold on the face.

The enthusiastic Huang Funuo named Mu Yunting to garrison the capital and be responsible for the logistics of the army, logistics in wartime is not a good errand, if you win the battle, if you lose the battle, you can find a reason at will, you can blame the poor logistics support and so on.

Therefore, many people complained about Mu Yunting, and they didn't adopt the opinions of the first military general of Daliang, but let him do such trivial things in the rear, which was obviously squeezing him out!

Mu Yunting didn't pay attention to the rumors at all, knowing that the emperor was about to leave, he still solemnly made a fold, saying that it was really not suitable to send troops at this time, and hoped that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would think twice.

Huang Funuo sneered, threw the song aside, and said disdainfully: "Mu Yunting has always been arrogant, thinking that Daliang will not turn away from him, I want him to see, without him, we will still win the battle." ”

On the twelfth day of the first month of the twentieth year of Baoqing, the army officially set off.

The Huangfu clan also felt that Mu Yunting had been treated unfairly, and was worried, thinking that Mu Yunting and Mu Changyuan, father and son, did not like to form gangs with others on weekdays, and the only thing they had to do was the fourth prince Huang Fu Zhuo, and Huang Fu Zhuo had already been promised by Huang Fu

regarded as a thorn in his side, he was sent to Yuzhou to inspect the people's situation, and he has not come back so far.

However, Shen Qingli comforted: "Grandmother doesn't have to worry, there is chaos over there, and it is just right that the prince does not go, but it is really worrying if he goes!" ”

Anyway, she didn't want Mu Yunting to make any military achievements, and now, there was nothing wrong with staying in the capital to preside over the rear.

"You can think about it." Huangfu smiled and patted her hand, and her mood was a little lighter, and she sighed, "I know that the prince and Erlang are not on good terms, but they can still get by on weekdays, but now that the prince is openly squeezing out Erlang, I still feel very uncomfortable." ”

She hoped that Mu Yunting could personally lead the army to fight the enemy in the state and make military exploits.

In her mind, her grandson is omnipotent, and even the crown prince has to respect her precious grandson.

The two talked and talked, and then talked about Mu Yunxuan's family affairs.

Shen Qingli said his opinion directly, instead of letting Mu Yunxuan regret it for the rest of his life, it is better to fulfill a pair of lovers, as for the heir, since Mu Yunxuan doesn't care, it is not a problem.

After all, there is still Mu Yunchao on the other side of the second room.

The Huangfu clan was silent.

suddenly thought that Prime Minister Chen Cheng was the father-in-law of the four princes, if the second room could have a relationship with the four princes, then he would not be helpless in the future.

In this way, the entire Yongding Marquis Mansion will not all rely on the ups and downs of Mu Yunting alone.

After all, the power of the four princes should not be underestimated.

The crown prince is so impulsive and reckless, it is difficult to say whether he can ascend to the throne.

After thinking about it for a night, after weighing it repeatedly, the Huangfu family finally agreed to the marriage of Mu Yunxuan and Miss Chen Er, and soon invited the official media to come to the door to propose marriage.

The Chen family naturally agreed.

The two families soon exchanged Geng stickers, and the wedding date was set for the second day of February.

Wu Lijuan felt that her opportunity had come.

Knowing that Qingxinyuan was heavily guarded, she deliberately learned several ways to restrain ingredients, even if she found out, she said that she didn't know at that time, it was a big deal to be reprimanded, anyway, she was pregnant with a child...... (To be continued......)
