Chapter 198: Ups and Downs (4)

Draft, no typos, hurry up and be in full attendance, and it will be revised soon...... The car rolled over the bluestone pavement, and the silence was broken by the rumbling of the goo.

Zhen Xuan accompanied Mrs. Li and Ji to ride in a blue-curtained carriage, and a few waiting maids got on the back one and slowly drove towards Qingrong Hall.

Old Mrs. Li closed her eyes and rested, the atmosphere was a little heavy, so Ji glanced at Zhen Xuan worriedly.

Zhen Xuan lowered his eyes, and the Xia family suddenly invited Mrs. Zheng to come to the door to propose marriage, so that they did not have the slightest preparation, and the second monk was completely confused.

Zhen Xuan knew the reason why Mrs. Li was angry, the old lady was angry, she must have felt unhappy when this kind of marriage fell into her ears, but since she was unhappy and had already invited Mrs. Zheng to leave, why did she rush to Qingrong Hall?

Putting aside the person Xia Erye, and the few face-to-face meetings between her and him, this family does have some taste of being out of the right door.

The door is not right, and when she thought of this word, Zhen Xuan suddenly remembered the old lady of the Xia family.

At that time, the young daughter of Zheng Ge, who was in power and the opposition, married into the family of the imperial businessman, and where was the right family.

Zhen Xuan was still thinking to herself, but Mrs. Li suddenly called her, and she quickly raised her eyes in response.

"Xuan'er, what do you think of yourself?"

Mrs. Li asked, Ji glanced at Zhen Xuan, and signaled Zhen Xuan with her eyes not to panic.

Zhen Xuan took a deep breath, there were only three of them in the carriage, and Mrs. Li asked her if she had a sincere idea, if she put on an attitude that the woman in the boudoir did not talk about marriage. On the contrary, it will disappoint Mrs. Li.

"My granddaughter has seen Second Master Xia a few times, and the matter of Tao Aya last time also relied on him to turn evil into good fortune, from the bottom of my heart, I am grateful to Second Master Xia." Zhen Xuan paused at this point. Old Mrs. Li still had her eyes closed, but looking at her expression, she knew that she was listening to Zhen Xuan very seriously, "But just because I've seen it a few times." asked the Xia family to invite Mrs. Zheng to protect the media, I think it's unlikely. The Xia family has married the daughter of a powerful minister, but they should also know that not all official eunuchs will let their daughters marry into the family of the imperial merchants. The Xia family suddenly did this, there must be a reason, but this reason, the granddaughter still can't figure it out. Guess casually. It's about royalty......"

Old Mrs. Li's tense face soothed a little, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly: "Yes, you and I have come together." If it was just an ordinary imperial merchant who asked to marry my granddaughter, my old woman would have driven people out of the city with a feather duster. But if there is another reason for this, it is not something we want to do. ”

Mrs. Li didn't speak again after saying this. Zhen Xuan chewed on those words, and her heart suddenly tightened for no reason.

If there is really another reason, I can't say anything from the Pei family, even Zheng Ge Lao has to let his daughter be a chess piece, let alone the girl of their Pei family?

I suddenly remembered what Mrs. Ma had said to Zhen Lin on the day I came back from the capital.

Your surname is Pei, and you have received all kinds of benefits as the daughter of the Pei family, so don't hate it when you pay the price.

The body shook slightly, and it turned out that Qingrongtang had arrived.

Mom Aya swayed her feet with her hands and feet. The little maid who was guarding the door of Qingrong Hall was sharp-eyed, and when she saw that it was two cars in front and behind, she hurriedly smiled and said, "Sister Taoya is here?" It's Miss Seven in the car, right? Who else is coming, the slave and maid hurriedly report it. ”

Moma Aya lifted the curtain and replied, "I'm tired of talking to the old lady, our old lady, Mrs. and Miss are coming over together." ”

When I heard that, even Mrs. Li came with me. The little maid hurried to pass it on.

Here, Zhen Xuan helped Tao Aya help Mrs. Li and Ji's get out of the car, and Xi Shu and Wan Niang hurriedly came over to help the old lady.

was going to the courtyard of the old lady Ma, and when she was halfway there, Jinhong came out, smiled and saluted: "Our old lady knows that you are here, but she is happy, and she asks the slave to come out to greet you." After speaking, he took the position of Wan Niang and personally supported Mrs. Li.

Entering Mrs. Ma's house, the Duan family had already sent Mrs. Zheng away, and she was replying, and both sides saw each other and sat down.

Mrs. Ma knew Mrs. Li's temperament, and she also knew her intention: "You are also anxious." ”

"I'm not in a hurry." Mrs. Li answered, and asked if Mrs. Zheng had left the house, and after getting a positive reply, she shook her head, "I think this matter is not so simple, I must come and talk to your sister-in-law." ”

"I'll tell my eldest daughter-in-law about this." Old Madam Ma nodded knowingly, "Do you think something is strange?" I and you, two old women who have lived in Yongzhou for a long time, really can't see through it, but fortunately, the boss will come back in a few days, and we will listen to what he has to say when the time comes. ”

Old Mrs. Li sighed: "I just want to listen to his analysis and analysis." The Xia family's hundreds of years of imperial merchant family, how could they suddenly think of us Xuan'er? Sister-in-law, there is something I didn't mention before, a few years ago, I vaguely felt that the emperor was going to use soldiers, but there was no evidence, and I thought that it had nothing to do with our Pei family, so I didn't say it. ”

Mrs. Ma's eyes widened: "How do you say this?" ”

Mrs. Li originally told Xia Erye about collecting a large amount of cotton from the Ji family, and said that she didn't know that Zhenlu would join the army later, and she didn't expect Zhenqi to be rationed to Fu Siye, otherwise, she was not sure to mention it.

"It's also a coincidence of marriage." Mrs. Ma waved her hand, "I look at Fourth Master Fu very well, and I am satisfied with being my grandson-in-law." Even the emperor likes it, and the person who jokingly said that he wants him to be a concubine has become the husband of our five girls, and my family must have nothing wrong with it. ”

These words were to make Mrs. Li worry about the old things in her heart, and Mrs. Li also understood when she heard it, so she said: "I'm not afraid of anything else now, if I really have something to pay attention to later, can I disobey the order?" It's just that I don't know which side the Xia family is on? Our Pei family also has several close in-laws who are in the court, so I am afraid that if we can't stand together, it will be a bad thing. ”

Mrs. Ma can listen to this sentence, what does the family rely on? Isn't it just the same heart! Share honor and disgrace, advance and retreat together.

Holding Mrs. Li's hand, Mrs. Ma said, "We'll hear the boss in a few days." Eldest daughter-in-law, you go back and send some return gifts to Mrs. Zheng, no matter what, you have to get by on face. ”

Duan should be down.

After sending Mrs. Li and Ji back to Qing'an Hall, Zhen Xuan's heart was always a little fluctuating, and she thought about talking to Zhen Lin, so she went to Qingfu Hall.

When I really arrived at Zhenlin, smelling the faint sandalwood in the room, my mood calmed down little by little.

If it comes, it will be safe.

Just like Mrs. Li said, if they are particular, how can they hide from the anxiety here?

Six days later, on May 14, the saint drove to the outside of Yongzhou City, and lived in the Yongliang Palace, which had already been prepared for the palace.

That night, Master Pei returned home.

The brothers and nephews at home all went to the door to greet them, and the eldest man went back to the room to change his clothes, and when he arrived at Mrs. Ma's house, he knelt down and kowtowed three times, making Mrs. Ma's eyes red.

A banquet was set up in Qingrong Hall, and when the meal was over, the men went to the study to talk, leaving the women to accompany a few old ladies.

Mrs. Ma motioned for the eldest lady to come back early.

The night gradually thickened, and a group of people went back, but the fifth room was still sitting, waiting for the master.

At three o'clock, the eldest lord came.

Mrs. Ma told him in detail about Mrs. Zheng's request to marry Zhen Xuan for Second Master Xia, and asked him for an opinion.

The eldest man touched his chin and was silent for a moment, and then said his opinion.

The eldest lord started from the old days, and said that Zheng Ge wanted to let his young daughter enter the Xia family.

When the first emperor was in power, he liked the great prince born to the current saint rather than the first queen, but the first queen's maiden family was prominent, and the strength of the relatives made the first emperor very taboo.

Zheng Ge Lao and the first emperor were also teachers and friends, and the relationship was very good, and the first emperor hinted several times that he would not pass the throne to the eldest prince, but to pass it on to Jinshang, who was still the fifth prince at that time.

The mother concubine of the fifth prince was just a noble concubine at that time, and her mother's family was weak, but the fifth prince did have something extraordinary, and he was a seedling of a good emperor.

The first few times the emperor mentioned it, Zheng Ge Lao was sloppy and avoided it, but the emperor was getting more and more anxious, Rao is that you are in power to the government and the opposition, and this power is also given by the emperor, so you can't be disobedient.

Zheng Ge's old heart was crossed, and he nodded and promised the emperor to support the five princes, and then added the young daughter to the century-old imperial merchant Xia family, which means that the power of my Zheng family and the money of the Xia family are all bet on the five princes.

Later, the noble concubine Niangniang gave birth to the current Prince of Huai'an, and raised it to Zhaoyi, and Zheng Ge Lao even realized the emperor's mind and sent Miss Zheng to the palace to be a nurse.

After the end of the day, the five princes ascended the throne and became the present, Miss Zheng returned to Yongzhou to continue to be the head of the Xia family, but she did not interact with the official eunuchs of Yongzhou, and did not mention some of the past.

When Mrs. Li heard this, she also understood a little in her heart, if this past was not important, the eldest master would not bring it up now, so she asked: "Then which is His Royal Highness's favorite prince in the Holy Lord today?" ”

The eldest man looked at Mrs. Li, and then at Mrs. Ma, their eyes were all about this question, and they couldn't help but say in their hearts, although they are all so old, but in the end, they are all a product's fate, and they see things to the point.

Lowering his voice, the eldest lord spoke: "The emperor's favorite thing now is the Seventh Prince. ”

Zhen Xuan was stunned when he heard this answer, and what came to his mind was the young man he had met at the back door of Tianning Temple that day, who was not very old and had his own nobility.

"What about the Xia family?" Mrs. Li asked.

The position of the Xia family......

Zhen Xuan's eyes shrank, and before the eldest master could answer, she already knew the truth.

The carriage on which the seven princes got on that day belonged to the Xia family.

The Xia family stands behind the Seven Princes, there will be deviations in history, and there are similarities, the past of the year has passed for a while, and it will happen again.

This time, the Pei family was involved.

It's just, what is the Pei family? The Pei family is far inferior to the Zheng family back then! (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )RV
