303 Red Dust Idiot
The palace has never revealed the tone of the marriage, even Prime Minister Zuo, has never said anything about the marriage, so although Hua Heng and Hua Ke are anxious, they don't dare to do anything, let alone ask Prime Minister Zuo.
The fact that they have their own sources of information is a hole card related to their lives, and they can't be leaked out at will.
After Hua Tian's initial anxiety, he returned to his usual good food and accommodation in the evening.
Before dinner on the second day, news came from Agarwood's side.
The matter of marriage is the saint who the young general Zhong Liche personally begged, and the saint has initially agreed, but he is still waiting, and it seems that he will wait for Hua Tian and Lu to make an order.
Hua Tian showed the news to Hua Heng and Hua Ke, but the two were not much easier. The more prudent the saints are, the more stressed they are.
Now at the end of March, Hua Tian's birthday is in mid-May, and Hua Tian's birthday is in mid-May. It's only been a little over a month now.
Hua Heng and Hua Ke hoped that some news would come out from the palace earlier, so that they could ask the saint to take back their lives.
Hua Ke walked around the house with his hands behind his back, "It is said that Zhong Liche is infatuated with Lin Ruoran, but I don't know why I want to ask the sage for permission to marry my sister." Isn't there some conspiracy involved? β
"Some feelings, but infatuation may not be. He lingers in the ji hall all day long, and intersects with many artists, but Lin Ruoren is only one of them. Hua Heng obviously also heard a lot of news.
He usually doesn't like to gossip, but at this moment, he has a very bad perception of Zhong Liche, who covets his sister, so he can't help but inquire about it and complain at this moment.
"It's different, after all...... According to the news I heard, Lin Ruoran left the Prime Minister's Mansion and opened the Ji Pavilion in person, just for Zhong Liche. Hua Ke lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Such a woman is willing to fall into the red dust for herself, will Zhong Li Che not be moved." β
Hua Tian was surprised and moved when he heard this, and he couldn't wait to urge the two to talk more.
What touched me was that the two brothers, who usually don't like to inquire about the news of others, were stimulated by the alleged marriage to inquire about the news.
To her surprise, the news she heard earlier was that Lin Ruoran was in love with the Seventh Prince, and Zhong Liche was concerned about Lin Ruoran. Now listening to Hua Ke, it seems that something is wrong.
I don't know whose news is true.
However, if Hua Ke's news is true, then Lin Ruoran is not an ordinary deep love for Zhong Liche, but I am afraid that it is in the bone marrow.
Hua Tian thinks to himself that he will never give up the status of Miss Xiangfu for a man, and is willing to fall into the red dust. This is not only a lack of self-love for oneself, but also a betrayal of one's parents.
"Zhongli has a deep belonging, but he begged the saint to marry his sister, he really deserves to die!" Hua Heng has always been gentle, and he can't hold back his anger at this moment.
"Maybe I miss my sister's talent, he is a martial artist, and he can't enter the literati circle at all." Hua Ke thought for a while and said.
Hua Tian listened and frowned, "I'm afraid it's not." That day in Princess Shuhua's peach orchard, he was impatient with us talking about poetry. β
"Then why the hell does he want to marry our house!" Hua Heng and Hua Ke couldn't figure it out.
At the same time, in Zhongli's General's Mansion, Xie Jun also asked the same question, "Why did you ask to marry Hua Liuniang?" β
Zhongli Che drank the wine, his eyes lit up, as if he was already drunk, and he didn't speak.
"Hua Liuniang is a poet, and he is a master disciple of Mr. Zhanbo, which is very good. If it weren't for the fact that I already had a marriage contract, I would have to go to the Hua family to ask for marriage. Zheng Ling shook the paper fan and said with a smile.
Wang Xu glanced at Zhongli, "If you are not afraid of being beaten, you will go to the door......"
Speaking of this, Zheng Ling also glanced at Zhong Liche and sneered, "Aren't I joking......
Zhong Liche stopped drinking and slowly looked sideways at Zheng Ling. He didn't move much, but Zheng Ling was extremely flustered, leaned back slightly, and said, "I don't know how Lin Ruoran will ...... if he knows this news."
"What do you have to do with me...... Zhong Li Che drank all the wine in his hand, finally opened the golden mouth, and said lightly.
Xie Jun frowned, "Although Hua Liuniang is cunning, she is a woman from a good family after all, you better not provoke ......" Speaking of this, he remembered something and looked at Zhong Liche, "Haven't you always never provoked a woman from a good family?" β
"If you ask for a marriage, you can't be provoked." Wang Xu picked up the wine glass next to him and poured himself a glass of wine, "I heard that the Hua family's wine is excellent, when is it time to taste it." β
Zheng Ling folded the fan, sat up straight and looked at Zhong Liche with his eyes shining, as if he had discovered the truth, "The Hua family's brewing recipe, could it be the reason why you asked to marry Hua Liuniang?" β
Zhong Liche didn't seem to hear it, closed his eyes and seemed to fall asleep, his brows frowned slightly, as if he was sleeping unsteadily, but the corners of his mouth were slightly smiling.
Unable to get Zhong Liche's answer, Zheng Ling didn't care, he looked at Xie Jun and asked, "You had a very bad impression of Hua Liuniang before, thinking that she was scheming, innocent, and ruthless, how can you help her speak now?" β
Xie Jun's face was a little embarrassed, and he coughed and said, "It's just a matter of facts, although she has such shortcomings, she is good at poetry, better than many men, and has something to do with my Xie family." β
What he said was the fact that Hua Tian was Mr. Zhanbo's protΓ©gΓ©. Mr. Zhan Bo was born in the Xie clan of Chen County, which is a well-known thing in the world.
"When it comes to poetry, it's really good. I didn't expect her to have such talent, no wonder Mr. Zhanbo, who has never accepted female students, accepted Hua Liuniang. Zheng Ling squinted his eyes and said.
Xie Jun nodded, and said in a low voice, "Thousands of blows are still tough, and the wind is blowing from east to west, north and south." Groaning, I thought of the poem "Nian Chun" again, and thought of "Peach Blossoms with Human Faces", and I was stupid for a while......
After a while, he came back to his senses, looked at Zhong Liche, closed his eyes and took two deep breaths, and said, "Our patriarch also plans to marry the Hua family, because there is no young lady of the right age, maybe he will help the children of the clan to marry Hua Liuniang......"
Before he finished speaking, Zhong Liche opened his eyes in an instant, and his eyes were like eagles, and he looked at Xie Jun sharply.
In the Xie generation of Chen Jun, there are many children who have not yet married, and the best of them is Xie Jun.
Hua Tian is the only female disciple of Mr. Zhanbo, and if she wants to marry the Xie family, she will definitely marry the best child. And this person is most likely Xie Jun.
Ignoring Zhong Liche's gaze, Xie Jun lowered his eyes and said, "The news that you asked the saint for marriage, our clan faintly heard the rumors. Because of the relationship between the uncle, the patriarch may come to the door in advance to propose ......"
Zhong Li Che stood up and clenched his fists, "You can't snatch my ......"
Wang Xu and Zheng Ling, who were stunned on the sidelines, were a little difficult to digest when they heard the words.
After a while, Wang Xu looked at Xie Jun, "You won't rob Zhongli, right?" You can't forget Qiao'er's ......"
Hearing Wang Xu mention Qiao'er, Xie Jun was stunned, his face flashed with pain and sadness, and he said bitterly for a while, "If I have the intention, I won't say it......"
Looking at his friend's face, Wang Xu looked regretful, he reached out and patted Xie Jun's shoulder, and said, "I'm sorry......"
Xie Jun shook his head and stood up, "I'll go back first......" The whole person's temperament changed, and he looked depressed.
Watching Xie Jun leave, Wang Xu and Zheng Ling didn't follow, they all knew where he was going, and they also knew that they should let him be quiet at this time.
After Xie Jun left, Zheng Ling thought for a while and said, "Chen Jun Xie is very likely to succeed because of Mr. Zhanbo's relationship. β
Even though Mr. Zhanbo has never done anything for the Chenjun Xie clan for so many years, it is a fact that he was born in the Chenjun Xie clan. And Washington is weak, so letting Washington marry the Xie clan of Chen County is beneficial to both aspects, and he will work hard to promote it.
Zhong Liche didn't understand that now the sage has a great imperial examination, indicating that the emerging forces will rise, and the Hua family is the representative of the emerging forces. And the Chenjun Xie clan is an old power, belonging to a long-standing family. If you want the Chen Jun Xie family to prosper, if you want the Hua family to go steadily, the marriage of the two families is the best plan.
Xie Yan, as the link in the middle, would definitely agree to this marriage.
Just as the three of them were silent, footsteps came from the garden gate, and they quickly stopped.
"Come inβ" Zhong Litou said.
A tall man outside the gate walked in and asked, "Is the news going to be spread?" β
"Spread out...... If you talk nonsense, you will have to pay the price......" Zhong Li Che smiled on his face, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.
The man nodded, and quietly withdrew.
Hua Tian began to follow the housekeeper to deal with some affairs in the house, leaving the matter of marriage behind him.
The Winter Food Festival is coming, and she has to make some preparations in advance. Before the Flower Dynasty Festival and Shangsi Festival, she was on her way to the imperial capital, and she did not feel the festive atmosphere.
Mama Lan has been too busy lately, and according to her, she is going around collecting good things.
After interrogating Luo Yun, Hua Tian already knew what Mother Lan was going to buy, but she was not easy to come forward to ask.
What Lan's mother bought was her dowry. She was too young to pay attention to this, and her two brothers, as men, inevitably did not notice this. Mother Lan took pity on her and went to do it herself.
In the past few days, it is said that someone on the west side of the imperial capital wants to change the hot spring Zhuangzi in his hand, and Mother Lan heard the news and couldn't wait to pass.
She didn't reply for a few days, only sent back the news that many people were vying for the Zhuangzi, and she was trying her best to maneuver.
Mother Lan's martial arts are strong and she has a lot of money in her hands, so Hua Tian is not worried.
Previously, the Zeng family came to the door for help, and the cow steward came forward to deal with it, took the Zeng family's honorarium, and handed it over to Lan's mother to buy a dowry. The Zeng family was really frightened to the extreme, so the amount of money they took was extremely high.
When Hua Tian saw it, he once sighed that a general scholar has such a rich family background, no wonder many people want to be Beijing officials.
followed the housekeeper around the house, picked a few points, and after surveying that there would indeed be no fire, Hua Tian took Luo Yun back to the west chamber where he lived.
As soon as she entered the garden gate, Lilac jumped out excitedly and announced a message.
Zeng Yan, the eldest lady of Zeng's mansion, had a personal affair with a dramatist, and they also gave each other love letters! R1152
