Chapter 458: Marriage
After Mama Rui finished speaking, she was silent.
Qin Niang's eyebrows sank, why didn't she know what those girls of the Lu family were thinking, not to mention anything else, just say that Lu Yu is not anything to be content with ordinary, if she can marry the prince, she will naturally be a little proud.
She doesn't care who Lu Yu wants to marry, what she cares about is that Jiang Guifei wants to marry the Lu family for no reason, I'm afraid that she has some purpose, if the girl of the Lu family doesn't hold back at this time, does something insulting, and forces the Lu family to marry the royal family, then the fate of the Lu family will be tied to the Jiang family in the future.
Now that the situation is turbulent, Song Xi, the king of Changle County, is still unwilling to be his idle county king, and the Jiang family, as a relative of the five princes, is naturally not willing to be lonely, if they do something that angers the heavens, then the fate of the Lu family will really be inseparable from them.
"Mama Rui, we can't interfere in this matter openly, otherwise it will inevitably be said that the hand is stretched too long, but the Lu family is also my mother's maiden family after all, if the Lu family is destroyed, my mother will definitely be sad, in this way, you go to the Lu family for me to pass a message to my grandmother, just say ......" Qin Niang beckoned Mama Rui to come forward and whispered a few words to her.
Mama Rui nodded: "Miss, don't worry, the old slave will go now." ”
It's still early, and there's still some time before the curfew, so she should be able to move faster.
The marriage of the girls of the Lu family is naturally arranged by Mrs. Lu, but even if Mrs. Lu is partial to the granddaughter of the Zheng family, she has always been kind to her own granddaughter, but she is not a confused woman, as long as she casually mentions a few words, she naturally knows why the Jiang family is looking for their Lu family to marry at this time.
As long as Old Madam Lu has an open heart, she will naturally control the girls in the mansion well.
Those cousins who want to come to the Lu family are indeed of age, and they should indeed be in a hurry.
However, Qin Niang obviously underestimated the ambitions of the Jiang family, she originally thought that they just wanted to marry one of the daughters of the Lu family for the fifth prince as political capital, but she didn't expect that their target was all the concubines of the Lu family who had reached the age of now.
When Mama Rui came back, there was only a pillar of incense left before the curfew, and it would not have been so long for her to pass on the word, but after she went, she walked in Mrs. Lu's courtyard for a long time before returning to Gu's house in a hurry.
"Miss, the old slave heard from Mrs. Lu that Concubine Jiang is interested in Lu Xue, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, but she also promised the Lu family's concubine the position of a side concubine." Mama Rui stood aside and carefully recalled what she had just heard in Mrs. Lu's courtyard.
Qin Niang looked at Mama Rui in surprise: "You mean, this Jiang Guifei has a lot of appetite, and it is not enough for her to want one daughter of the Lu family, but also two?" ”
Mama Rui nodded: "Yes, she was afraid that the Lu family would be afraid of the current situation of the Jiang family, and she was afraid that she would not be able to rely on her daughter after marrying into the royal family, so she promised a position as a side concubine, she said that even if the five princes accepted other side concubines or concubines in the future, but the Lu family has two girls with sides, and the status is absolutely stable, and no one will be able to shake the position of the Lu family girl, and now that the prince has been deposed, the prince in Beijing is an adult, and there is hope, it is none other than the five princes." ”
Anyway, Concubine Jiang Guifei made a lot of wishes in order to let the fifth prince marry the girl of the Lu family, and also took a detailed inventory of the current situation, the seventh prince is a little younger in the end, and he has no intention of taking the throne, and the rest are still young, and the mother family is not necessarily how strong, the third prince is far away at the border, and it is one thing whether he can come back alive, so after analyzing and analyzing, the possibility of the five princes succeeding to the throne in the future is the greatest.
The person sent by Jiang Guifei is indeed a good lobbyist, and her words made Mrs. Lu's mind fluctuate for a while, looking at the capital, there is indeed no family affair better than this one.
Although the Lu family is also relied on by the imperial court and respected, the old man Lu is only a six-grade civil official, and none of the sons and nephews below are particularly outstanding for a while, and they are quite a little green and yellow, with their family background, it is impossible to find a high-ranking family for these girls in the house, but it is too low, and it is indeed unwilling.
Mrs. Lu is an ambitious woman, and she is naturally not willing to see the Lu family in her lifetime, and she naturally wants to make the Lu family go to the next level by climbing a good family business.
However, after all, she has been married into the Lu family for decades, and she also knows the temperament of Old Man Lu very well, he is absolutely unwilling to get involved in these things to seize the heir, if she agrees, I am afraid that Old Man Lu will turn his face with her.
"Just because those five princes also want to be the crown prince?" Qin Niang couldn't help but sneer, who was the prince was an irrelevant matter to her in the past, but now that so many things have happened, the balance in her heart has long been tilted, and with contrast, she naturally can't look down on these princes who are ambitious and incapable but like to jump up and down.
Not to mention that there are three princes in front, but there is no such person as the three princes, so where can the five princes be Song Xi's opponents?
If you really talk about means and scheming, I'm afraid that ten five princes are not enough for Song Xi to die.
He still wants to be an emperor like this?
It's a fool's dream.
"Miss, Concubine Jiang doesn't just want the two girls of the Lu family." Mama Rui looked at her with complicated eyes and said, "She also intends to ask for one for the son of the Jiang family." "135 Chinese
Qin Niang opened her mouth wide and looked at Mama Rui, this time, her mood could not be described as shocked: "What did you say? She also wants the Lu family to marry their daughter to the Jiang family? ”
Isn't this Jiang Guifei a bad brain?
Even if they ask to marry the two daughters of the Lu family as daughters-in-law at one time, they still have to ask for one for the son of the Jiang family, when the girl of their Lu family is a maid in Nanu City? Can you get a discount if you buy a few more at once?
"Yes, she said that in this way, the Jiang family and the Lu family can be closely linked, and in the future, the five princes will win the world, and the Lu family does not have to be afraid of the Jiang family crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, she said that she is thinking about the Lu family." When Mama Rui said this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
Unexpectedly, this royal woman's ideas are so grotesque, and she really can think of any way to consolidate her power.
However, I have to say that these conditions put forward by Concubine Jiang are indeed quite tempting for Mrs. Lu.
If this is achieved from the dragon's skill in the future, the Lu family will become the emperor's relatives, and this status is outstanding, but on the contrary, if the five princes fail to seize the heir, they will not be able to do it, and the whole family will be copied.
Either be pampered, or raid the family and exterminate the family, while the great temptation is great, there is naturally a great risk, so Mrs. Lu did not reply for a while.
"There are not only three girls in the Lu family who have reached the age now, this Jiang Guifei is very calculating, and she will leave all the girls of the Lu family at one time, with my grandmother's ambition, I'm afraid she is moved, right?" Qin Niang tugged at the corners of her lips and said, even if she hasn't agreed for the time being, she can't be guaranteed that she will nod in a few days.
If she wasn't moved, she would go back directly, so why think about it for a few days?
It seems that Jiang Guifei also made a bloody effort in order to pull the Lu family into the camp of the five princes.
"Miss, Old Man Lu is only a six-grade person, why does the Jiang family have to pull them over? also promised such a big benefit to the Lu family at one time, not to mention whether the five princes can be emperors in the future, that is, to be an idle prince, the status of the five princesses' Yue family is also very high, and it is not enough for the granddaughter of a mere six-rank official to be worthy. Mama Rui asked puzzled.
"What's so strange about that?" Qin Niang tugged at the corners of her lips, if she was still a little stunned when she first heard the news, then she probably had some clue at this time, "I wonder why my grandmother asked Lu Xue and Lu Yu to come to Gu Mansion to have a relationship with me?" Naturally, it was because I, Jin, was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and they wanted the Yang family to help. ”
Now that Jiang Guifei is doing this, it is naturally similar to what Mrs. Lu thought at the beginning.
If it weren't for the Yang family and the Gu family, would the Jiang family be able to look at the Lu family? also promised the position of a main concubine and a side concubine in one go?
"The old slave has already brought the words to Mrs. Lu, if they really want to marry the royal family, the Yang family and the Gu family will never have anything to do with them, and they will become victims of the heir in the future, and the Gu and Yang families will definitely not come to the rescue." Mama Rui said, "Mrs. Lu's face was quite unsightly at that time. ”
Qin Niang didn't care about Mrs. Lu's face, she must have made it clear, and she should have a good idea of how to choose Mrs. Lu.
She wanted to take the Lu family to take this risk, but if there was no relationship between the Gu and Yang families, how could Jiang Guifei take a fancy to the Lu family, and even treat the Lu family well in the future?
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a sentence, whether to choose Mrs. Lu to choose whether to choose a temporary false name and climb the royal family, or to choose the nepotism of the two families like the Gu and Yang families, since ancient times, the royal love is as thin as paper, for that chair, killing brothers to seize the throne, brothers cannibalism is not uncommon, how can they treat them as outsiders sincerely?
Once the Gu family has no use value, they will definitely be ruthless when they wield the butcher knife.
"It doesn't matter if she doesn't look good, the important thing is that she listens to it." Qin Niang breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the sky outside, and instructed Qiu Tao to light the lamp, "Although my grandmother is ambitious, she is not a stupid woman, she can naturally understand the stakes involved." ”
Mama Rui nodded and asked her if she wanted to pass the meal, after she asked, Qin Niang felt that her stomach was really a little hungry, Gu Chen had not returned at this point, and she must have been left in the palace by the emperor.
"Let's set the table." Qin Niang casually tied the ends of her hair with a head rope, wore a moon-white robe and went to the dining room next door, and the people brought the food one after another.
Gu Chen is back.
"Madame, who do you suppose I met in the palace?"
