On the third day of Yaodong's return to the imperial city, Su Yan held a chrysanthemum banquet at home, specially invited the young grandmothers and young grandmothers of the Jiang family to attend the banquet, and invited Mrs. Qi mother and daughter (Yu Pan'er), Mrs. Song Yuanming's mother and daughter, and Gu's grandmother and daughter to come together.

Miss Song sat beside her mother generously and decently, neither humble nor arrogant, politely and modestly talking to the young ladies around her, she had a beautiful goose egg face, picturesque eyebrows and eyes, Yaodong took a closer look at it, although the first time he saw it, he felt a little familiar, and suddenly, he found that this woman's face was very similar to Su Yan, and even the red lips were pixel Yan's mouth shape.

Miss Gu may have stayed in the palace, her smile is contrived, her smile is very stiff, not as generous and decent as Miss Song.

Miss Qi's laughter is a bit exaggerated, especially the sound when she laughs, which is quite scary.

Only Miss Song, everything seems very decent, even her smile is neither ostentatious nor suppressed, it is such a natural smile, a smile as gentle as the sun.

Her smile made Yaodong feel good at just one glance.

This reminded him of the first time he saw Yi Jingjing, and it was her smile that made him feel excited.

When the chrysanthemum feast was about to disperse, Su Yan and Ling Wei called Yaodong aside.

Yao Dong said: "I think Miss Song is good. ”

Among the three young ladies, Miss Song's appearance is not the most beautiful, Miss Gu is the most beautiful one, but Ling Wei has inquired and is the best among the three. Also one of the most virtuous.

Ling Wei's heart was happy. looked at Su Yan and said, "Then order Miss Song." If you still have a crush on others. You can marry home as a side concubine, you are the prince of the palace, you can not learn your father's set, not to say ten or eight, marry three or five or ......"

Before she married any of them, Ling Wei was thinking about letting Yaodong marry a side concubine.

Su Yan said: "If you are really good to your wife, she is the only one." ”

Yaodong nodded slightly, thoughtfully. "I understand, but all women in the world are eager for the same wish as their mother."

Her wish: a couple for a lifetime.

In this life, she has already sought it.

Su Yan said softly: "It's good that you understand." ”

On the second day of the first month of August, Prince Yu Wenheng and Yi Jingjing got married, ten miles of red makeup, the whole country celebrated, and the mighty dowry was lined up from outside the city to the gate of the palace, even if the princess got married, she had never seen such a lively and rich makeup. There are as many as one hundred and eighty lifts, and there are night pearls in it that many people have never seen. Not one, but a box of six, more valuable golden jade clothes, more tall than one person, bright and dazzling like a flame of red butterflies......

This kind of magnificent makeup is unheard of by the people, and it overshadows the weddings of princes and emperors in previous dynasties.

On the third day of the eighth month, in the flower hall of the palace on the left shoulder, Mrs. Song was exchanging Geng posts with Su Yan and Ling Wei.

Su Yan took the post, but saw the three words "Song Jiangxue" jumped into her eyes, for some reason these three words made her feel tight, and her heart fluctuated, so many years, she rarely felt like this, this is an ominous premonition, she looked up in amazement, looked at Song Jiangxue who was standing quietly behind Mrs. Song, and looked at Yaodong who was sitting upright.

Yaodong had joy on his face.

Song Jiangxue's face was surprisingly calm, when a woman encounters this kind of thing, she has to marry a husband who is talented, has a good disciple, and looks upright and burly, and everyone should be happy. Song Jiangxue is not happy, but there is a kind of indifference and uneasiness in this calm.

Could it be that there is something in this that she doesn't know?

Su Yan whispered to Ling Wei: "Mother-in-law, and find someone to give them the eight characters." ”

Usually when the two families exchange Geng posts, they will invite a fortune teller or a layman who is good at divination to their home in advance, and once they can be closed, they will be considered engaged.

Su Yan smiled and said, "Miss Song, accompany me outside." ”

Song Jiangxue responded, got up and followed Su Yan out of the quiet hall, the two walked one after the other, not far, Su Yan raised her hand to rebuke left and right, she raised her head and looked straight ahead, "Miss Song, you tell me the truth, what are you hiding?" ”

"I ......," Miss Song said, "I don't understand why the princess asks such a question?" ”

Su Yan can't tell when she started, at critical times, she will always have some strange emotions, just like Zhang Shuangshuang's eldest son Qijun wants to be engaged to the Lin daughter, she has a bad premonition, and in the end she came forward to stop it, only to know afterwards that the Lin daughter is really an affair and has an affair with her cousin.

This time, she felt the same as that time, "Tell me about you and that person, since you have someone you like, why do you agree to marry my son?" If you don't explain it today, don't blame me for preaching it in front of your mother. ”

She is also a person from the past, and the two families are engaged, but they are indifferent and uneasy, and there can only be one reason: Song Jiangxue has a heart, but Yaodong is not the person she has in mind.

Song Jiangxi's body trembled, and she looked at Su Yan fixedly, "Princess......"

Su Yan looked at the unexpected Song Jiangxue, and became more and more sure that she had guessed it, smiled and said, "Did that person force you?" ”

"Princess." Song Jiangxue pounced, knelt down heavily, and put her head on the ground, she thought that she had hidden this from everyone, but she didn't expect that she couldn't hide it from the princess on her left shoulder, "The little girl deserves to die, and I ask the princess to forgive her sins." ”

Su Yan smiled and said sharply: "Since you like him, you shouldn't accept my son's proposal." If he is sincere to you, how can he let you marry my son? My son's wife is the only one who is both physically and mentally satisfied. Song Jiangxue, I won't ask anymore. Since you truly love him, you should be your parents, and it is only right for you to marry him sincerely. ”

Since we love each other, we should strive for it, not be afraid of others, let alone give up our happiness. No one will hold happiness in front of you, even if it is in front of you, you must have the courage to accept and face it, if not, no amount of happiness will slip away in vain.

Song Jiangxue knocked heavily, "Please also ask the princess to teach me!" ”

Su Yan looked at the beautiful girl in front of her with a solemn face.

"Don't hide it from the princess, the little girl and His Royal Highness the Third Prince have known each other for a long time and love each other sincerely. But my father said that he didn't agree to anything. said that the third prince was just the son of Hua Concubine. In terms of dignity, it is far inferior to the second prince, the fourth prince, the sixth prince and others, even if I marry Hui Shizi, it is far better than with him. But he is also cautious and cautious, and refuses to reveal his sincerity to me......"

The prince born to the imperial concubine will be crowned in the future, if there is no military merit, he can only be the king of the county at most, but the prince born to the imperial concubine can be crowned the prince, and even the fief can be increased by half. The prince born to the harem concubines below the rank of the emperor can only be named the prince, or the fief of the three counties and the second county.

Although they are both princes, because of their biological mother's position, they decide the order of their respective fiefs and titles.

I was afraid that Yu Wenyi and Hua Concubine would know about this matter early on, not only did they not say it, but they also persuaded her to marry the left shoulder palace, all for the reason to increase his chances of winning the throne in the future.

He is just the son of Concubine Hua, how to take it away from the son of the queen and Concubine Duan.

The four princes born to Concubine Duan did not want to compete with the crown prince. Even when Liyu Wenheng was the prince, the four princes also helped. Everyone knows that the queen and the concubine are good friends, and the relationship between the four princes and the prince is also good, and the concubine is even more disdainful, since the concubine entered the palace, she is the queen's right-hand man, and she has never changed for so many years, even the sixth prince Yu Wenyi, who was born to Concubine Liang, has also become the most loyal brother of the prince Yu Wenheng.

Now, the queen's son is the crown prince, and Concubine Duan's son Yu Wenke is also quite favored.

Can't fight!

"Once this matter is publicized, you can't talk to others except to marry him." Su Yan had already told her the answer, and reached out to help her up, "Since your heart belongs, you shouldn't give up lightly and go back to the Jingtang with me." ”

In the flower hall, the fortune teller finished the eight characters again, and said a lot of auspicious words as before.

Su Yan didn't wait for him to speak, raised her arm and said, "Sir, you can step down." Dogwood, reward three taels of silver. ”

Bai Zhu responded.

Su Yan was in front of the official media, with a reproachful face, and said angrily: "Mrs. Song, you know that Miss Song has a heart, so you shouldn't let her be engaged to my son anymore, what my son wants is someone who is physically and mentally tied to him." ”

When the words fell, Ling Wei's face changed, as if she was about to attack at any time.

Yaodong's face changed again and again at this moment, and he was pale and colorless at the most, and he was also angry, but he finally suppressed it.

Su Yan said: "Forget it this time, Mrs. Song will leave with Miss Song." We just don't know about it, but for the sake of Miss Song's name, I persuaded Mrs. Song to fulfill Miss Song's wish. ”

Mrs. Song has never been so embarrassed as now, biting her lips, her face is white and red, and the official media is even more angry at the moment, which makes her lose face in the left shoulder palace, the left shoulder palace is a powerful person in the dynasty, and she actually introduced a young lady with an interest in her heart to Hui Shizi, and people will talk about it in the future, don't you say that she is abrupt.

Mrs. Song pulled Miss Song, retrieved the Geng post, and said continuously: "Old Concubine Jing, princess, I'm sorry!" Stretched out her hand and grabbed Miss Song, Miss Song's arm hurt but she didn't dare to scream, looking at her mother's cannibalistic gaze, she suddenly felt that a storm was coming.

On the third day of the eighth month, the emperor gave a marriage decree to give the eldest daughter of the right minister, Qi Mo, to the fourth prince Yu Wenke as a concubine, and the marriage was completed on a certain day.

Now, among the remaining three Imperial City Heroes, only Miss Gu remains.

Ling Wei waited for the mother and daughter of the Song family to leave, and let out a long breath, "What's going on?" How could Miss Song be interested in someone? ”

Su Yan didn't intend to hide it, and said in a low voice: "She admitted it herself, she is His Royal Highness the Third Prince, and the two are like-minded, it is not overnight." She raised her head, Su Yan stretched out her hand and pulled Yaodong to sit down beside her, and finally had a good impression of the second woman, but she didn't expect it to be like this, "Yaodong, emotional matters can't be forced." ”

Ling Wei hurriedly said, "Isn't there still Miss Gu?" ”

"Miss Gu and the four princes' childhood sweethearts have long been in love."

Ling Wei was stunned and froze, "Then the emperor ...... Also married Qi Mo and the four princes? ”

Su Yan sighed lightly, "If you really have affection, I'm afraid that Miss Gu will be willing to be the side concubine." ”

Yaodong raised his proud chin and smiled with relief, "Mother is right, I have to find someone who treats me sincerely." They don't like me, and I don't like them yet. ”

Su Yan felt distressed for a while, looked at Yaodong with a smile, and said, "You are very good, you will definitely be able to find the best woman in the world as a companion." ”

After that, Su Yan arranged two blind date banquets for Yaodong, but they all ended in dissatisfaction.

In October of this year, before Yaodong's twentieth birthday, the palace's canonization decree arrived, this time it was the will of the old prince, Yaonan (Yuwenjun) was named the king of Xiangjun, and the five counties of Xiangzhou were given as fiefs; Yew Chung (Yu Wenlian) was given the title of Anyang Hou. The other three counties of Xiangzhou were given as fiefs. Each is hereditary for five generations. Yuwenyan's original fiefdom of twelve counties was reduced to ten counties. Subtract the two counties of Yanping and Daya. Zhaohua (Xixi) Deweizhou Yanping County is Mu Shiyi, Zhaole (Beibei) Daya County is Mu Shiyi, because it is adjacent to the fief of the king of the left shoulder, although it is reduced by two counties, it is actually their family, and the second son and the youngest son still have the title of plain, and there are more fiefs.

Later, Su Yan heard that the old prince had resigned from all the emperor's rewards and wanted to ask for a knighthood for Yaozhong. And Yaodong is the same, thinking of his younger brother Wujue, his heart is uneasy, Xu is he listened to Ling Wei chattering a lot, the emperor admired the left shoulder of the prince's ancestral brother benevolence, broke up and promoted Yuwenjun to the throne of the county, and named Yuwenlian as Anyang Hou.

The two sons were rewarded by the Jin Jue, and the palace on the left shoulder held another family banquet.

YCIS is 10 years old this year, and when she reached the age of governor, she has been hearing about her grandmother and grandfather worrying about her brother's marriage. When I went to the Jiang family's house to study, I had a lot of discussions with the young masters of the Jiang family, and today is the day of the day. It's Mu Xiu again, there are a lot of guests at home, and I brought a few classmates and friends from the family school to play in the house.

Several people huddled together, chattering and discussing.

"Didn't you say that you would introduce your beautiful cousin and cousin to my eldest brother? Are they coming? ”

Among the other children, one of them is Cai Tianxiang's youngest grandson, who looked out cautiously at the moment, "My seventh sister is good-looking, but I don't like to go out the most, you are the most knowledgeable, my eldest sister is the smartest and most talented in our Cai family, and my seventh sister is the most beautiful in the family, and she plays the piano very well......"

Back then, Cai Tianxiang was punished by the emperor not to speak, and later the emperor asked him to speak, he still didn't say, the emperor smiled and joked, "Come to someone, pass the decree, Cai Tianxiang's eldest granddaughter entered the palace on the same day to serve the ......" The words did not fall, Cai Tianxiang was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, he hurt the most is this eldest granddaughter, legend has it that when this girl was born, Cai Tianxiang had a dream at night, dreamed that a goddess descended from the sky and handed him a mirror, "according to the truth and hypocrisy of the world, good and evil" left a sentence and flew away, and when he woke up, he listened to the next person to say, saying that his eldest daughter-in-law gave birth to a daughter, Therefore, this woman was given the milk word "mirror girl". This woman is very intelligent and most pleasing to him.

Later, Jing Niang married Gu Lixing's most proud son, Gu Lingshi, as his wife.

A concubine and a concubine were originally unworthy, but Cai Jingniang admired Gu Lingshi's talent and still insisted on marrying. finally achieved a good relationship, and it was rumored that Gu Lingshi repeatedly solved strange cases, and Cai Jingniang had nothing to do behind his back.

The children hid to the side to look at the young and beautiful young lady, and commented from time to time.

"That's Miss Yu, right? Look too ordinary. ”

"Miss Li is also very ordinary!"

Because it was the second son and youngest son's Jin Feng wedding banquet, Su Yan didn't plan to show Yaodong again. However, Yaonan and Yew Chung pestered her to ask for a few more wedding party posts, saying that if they invited their classmates and friends to play at home, they couldn't give too much, and each gave three of them.

A few children were discussing, only to see Cai Xiaoye pointing to the Moon Cave room, pulling Yew Chung and saying, "Yew Chung, look!" Look, it's my seventh sister who has arrived, you see if she looks good, hehe, I'm so big, I've never seen anything better than my seventh sister. ”

Eighth Young Master Jiang stretched his neck, glanced over there, and said coldly: "Hui Shizi is not judged by his appearance, he is much better-looking, and I don't see who he has taken a fancy to?" My aunt and grandmother are the same as our Jiang family, marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person, understand? ”

Cai Xiaoye rolled his eyes in displeasure, "My seventh sister is the best, you don't understand, how can you say that she is not virtuous." If it weren't for her, my grandfather wouldn't have stayed until now and not betrothed her, and she is now my grandfather's favorite granddaughter. ”

Who said that there are few beauties in the Celestial Empire, earlier there were Song Jiangxue, Miss Gu, and now there is Miss Cai Qi, now Miss Cai Qi appeared on the stage, and amazed the eyes of countless people for a while, she gave birth to a beautiful melon seed face, smiled slightly, and the corners of her mouth revealed two intoxicating dimples, as if full of smiles, can immediately get drunk and tired of people's hearts, white as a feather, seemingly ordinary facial features, matched in one place, actually give people a sense of amazement, willow eyebrows, slightly raised the corners of the eyes, revealing an innate pride.

Yaodong was talking to the Fourth Prince, Jiang Qijun and others, and suddenly saw Miss Cai Qi arrive, and several people stopped talking, and their eyes converged on her.

Yu Wenke said curiously: "Which lady is this?" How have I never seen it. ”

There was a humane on the side: "Isn't this the granddaughter of Prime Minister Cai, she attended several banquets with her mother in her early years, but later when she got older, she rarely showed up, and she didn't see her for a few years, but she was more energetic than before." ”

Yaodong didn't think so, he didn't look at people who looked good, he had to marry home, and his wife who lived a good life had to be virtuous. As if he hadn't seen it, he continued to talk to Qijun.

Ling Wei mentioned this matter twice later.

Yaodong refused on the grounds of "not wanting to start a family for the time being".

Su Yan knew that he had a knot in his heart, so she didn't force him, she just let him go.

Today's Yaodong, like Yuwenyan back then, is also on an errand in Jinwuwei, Yuwenyan is the commander, and he is the general of Zuolang, Yuwenyan does not have to be an errand in the palace, but is topped by Yaodong.

Earlier, I didn't realize that with the comparison, several teenagers felt more and more that this Cai Qi was smart and good-looking.

In the afternoon of this day, Yaodong came back from the palace, passing through the lively streets and alleys, but saw a girl in a green shirt buying a pestle there, not a few catties or a basket, but buying all the villagers' pestles at once.

I wanted to ride away, but I heard a small child flatten his mouth and say, "Aunt Seven, why did you buy so many pestles, and when will you finish eating this?" ”

"Didn't you hear from the seller? His son was sick, so he waited for the child to be cured after selling the pistol. I bought it at once, and he would be able to go home earlier. There are not many of them, turn around, I can dry them into cakes, don't grandfather and you love to eat them, my aunt will give you the most fragrant and sweetest cakes to eat......"

The seller was full of gratitude, "Miss, let me help you carry the pestle to the car?" ”

"Don't work big brother, I'll bring someone and let him get into the car." (To be continued......)
