Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Struggle Behind the Marriage

Wu Jin walked quickly through a small door, walked into a courtyard, and came to the small building where the princess and princess of Lanling lived, he waited at the door for a while, and a maid came out and said, "Childe, please come in!" The prince and princess are waiting for you. ”

Wu Jin walked into the room, only to see the prince of Lanling and the princess sitting opposite each other, drinking tea, while talking about something, he hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to salute, "Grandson Wujin, knock on grandfather and grandmother." ”

Huangfu Jiang saw that Wujin knelt out of his heart, naturally and sincerely, without the slightest pretentiousness, he couldn't help nodding secretly, this child's surname is Chunhou, very good.

In fact, speaking of which, Huangfu Jiang is the cousin of Wujin's biological grandfather, and he can be regarded as Wujin's grandfather, and they have a deep blood relationship between them, far more than Huangfu Bailing of Donghai County, and Wujin is completely correct to call him his grandfather.

"Wu Jin, get up!"

"Yes!" Wu Jin got up and stood below with his hands down, "Wu Jin, in the morning, your grandmother went to Sufu to propose marriage, and the other party has already accepted the marriage letter, but I don't know what the result is, but I have one thing to tell you." ”

Huangfu Jiang glanced at his wife, meaning to let her come, and the princess said kindly: "I went to Su Mansion today, it is a coincidence that Princess Qi also came to propose marriage at the same time, it is for her younger brother Luo Qiyu to propose, the origin is very big, a little bit of a feeling of force to force Su Mansion, your marriage will become a little complicated, but you don't have to worry, the prince and I will do our best to make your wish come true." ”

Wu Jin was secretly shocked in his heart, he didn't expect Luo Qiyu to really take a fancy to Jiutian, and let the princess come to ask for marriage, although Jiutian would never agree, with the high level of the Su family, he couldn't look down on Luo Qiyu's character, but the King of Qi was extremely powerful, and the ancestral home of the Su Mansion was in Qizhou, would the Su Mansion not be able to withstand the pressure of the King of Qi?

Huangfu Jiang saw Wu Jin's worries, so he smiled again: "It is precisely because of the competitive situation of several families, so I estimate that Su Mansion will not easily agree regardless of any of them, and their head Su Xun has been isolated now, and it is impossible to have a result immediately, I asked you to come, I want you to settle down, don't worry, wait patiently, I will use all my relationships and connections to compete with King Qi, with the power of my Liang Wang family, I may not lose to him." ”

"The grandson understands, and the grandfather is heartbroken."

Huang Fujiang waved his hand and said: "I called you here to tell you that I will do my best, and this matter will not have a result soon, so don't focus too much on this matter, although you don't have anything to do now, you can make more friends and increase contacts, do you understand?" ”

Wu Jin nodded, "Sun Er understands. ”

"Then you go back first! Organize your thoughts. ”

Wujin retired, and when he retreated, the princess said to Huangfu Jiang: "Lord, why don't you let him fight for it himself?" In fact, I think it would be more effective for him to fight for it himself than for our help. ”

Huangfu Jiang took a sip of tea and smiled slowly: "That's because you don't know him, do you think he will really rely on us all?" I'm just saying this, if you want to get a good relationship, how can he not work hard himself? Rest assured! He's a smart and capable kid, and he'll fight for it himself. ”

........ Wu Jin returned to his yard, and just walked to the gate of the courtyard, just as a family member came from afar, "Childe! ”

"What's the matter?" Wu Jin stopped, "There is a little girl looking for you outside the door, she said that she is Miss Su's maid." ”

Wu Jin perked up, pulled his feet and ran towards the gate, just ran two steps, turned back again, ran back to his yard, and in a moment, he took a letter and ran towards the gate.

Outside the gate, the little maid Ah Qiao stood at the foot of the steps, stretched her neck to look, her eyes were full of anticipation and anxiety, she was most worried that Wu Jin was not at home, then she couldn't send the letter, and the young lady repeatedly told her to hand it over to Wu Jin.

Ah Qiao also knows the importance of this letter, what is this letter, it is a letter from the young lady to the lover, how can it be handed over to outsiders.

At this time, a dark shadow ran in the distance, Ah Qiao's eyes lit up, she immediately opened her eyes wide, and when the visitor ran closer, she also recognized it, it was the young man she had met several times in the Weiyang County bookstore, she beckoned to Wu Jin excitedly, "Childe, this way!" ”

Wu Jin ran to her side and smiled apologetically: "I'm sorry for keeping the girl waiting for a long time." ”

"My name is Ah Qiao, you can call me that in the future!" Ah Qiao pursed his lips and smiled, "Hmm! Miss Qiao, does Miss Su have something to say to me? ”

"There are no words, but there is a letter."

Ah Qiao handed him the letter, "Look for yourself!" Everything the young lady has to say is in it. ”

Wu Jin took the letter and opened it, and a line of juanxiu handwriting appeared in front of him, in which Su Han told a series of things that happened today, although there was no word of friendship, but Wu Jin could still feel a kind of longing hidden by Su Han between the lines, a kind of friendship that would never waver towards him, an expectation of him, hoping that he could take positive action and not let himself suffer a tragedy.

At the end of the letter, Su Han added some more content: "When I wrote this letter, Yi Mei told me that Mrs. Shen Xiangguo also came to ask for marriage, that is, Guan Xianju of Donghai County, you know that person, and we had a misunderstanding, this is a very sudden news, I hope to attract your attention, I personally think that the brother of Princess Qi is not to worry, and the son of the Guan family is a threat, remember!" Remember! I hope you can convince your ancestors that you don't want me to worry. ”

Wu Jin closed the letter, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, he had a little bottom in his heart, and then handed his letter to Ah Qiao, "This is the letter I wrote last night, to Miss Su, in addition, please tell Miss that I will do my best and will never let her down." ”

Ah Qiao took the letter and said with a smile: "With your words, Miss will rest assured, then I will leave, I will come to you at noon in the future, you can be at noon." ”

"Don't worry! I must be here at noon. ”

Wu Jin took out a sapphire from his arms again, handed it to Ah Qiao and said with a smile: "Ah Qiao, this gem is given to you is a little bit of my heart." ”

Ah Qiao took the gem a little embarrassed, and couldn't hold back the joy in her eyes, she hurriedly saluted, "Thank you, Childe, for your kindness!" ”

Wu Jin took off his clan ring and handed it to her, "This is my clan ring, it is my most precious thing, please give it to the young lady and tell her that my heart is like a clan ring, and I will definitely marry her." ”

Ah Qiao took the clan ring, carefully put it away, and saluted Wu Jin, "Childe, I'm leaving!" ”

She turned and ran quickly to a carriage.

Wu Jin pondered for a moment, turned around and went home, and after a while, he led the horse out, turned over on the horse, and galloped towards the north.

........ Half an hour later, Wu Jin and the East Palace guard Tianxing walked into a restaurant near the palace, and a guy greeted them and asked with a smile, "Two guest officers, do you want to drink?" ”

"Hmmm! Give us a quieter room. ”

"Okay! Please come with me. ”

The guy led them up to the second floor, walked to the top, and pushed open a door, "This is the quietest room in the store, the walls are all solid bricks, and you can talk at will." ”

Wu Jin and Tianxing walked into the room, two maids came in with wine trays, and served them a pot of wine and a few plates of cold dishes with wine, Wu Jin ordered a few dishes, and the guy retreated.

He poured Tianxing a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Call you out, the prince won't be angry!" ”

Tianxing picked up his wine glass and said with a smile: "The prince has always attached great importance to you, how can he be angry with you, I advise you to have time to see the prince, he will be very happy." ”

"I would like to go, but there have been a lot of miscellaneous things in the past two days, and I have no clue, and when I straighten it out a little, I will go to visit the prince."

"You have to be serious, you can't just say it, after all, you came out of the East Palace."

"Don't worry! I'll go, come, I'll toast you first. ”

The two clinked glasses and drank the wine, but Tianxing grabbed the wine jug, filled it for him, and asked with a smile: "Why did you think of calling me out today, is there something wrong?" ”

Wu Jin smiled and nodded, "There is something I want you to tell the prince." ”

"You say!"

Wu Jin pondered for a while and said: "I know very well that Su Hanzhen is the prince's henchman, but I don't know what the relationship between Su Fu and the prince is, do you know?" ”

"This...."

Tianxing thought for a while and said: "Because Su Hanzhen has been an official in the East Palace for a long time, the prince is very important to him, so Su Hanzhen has gradually become the prince's confidant, and other people in the Su Mansion, as far as I know, have not had much contact with the prince, like Su Xun, Su Hanchang and others, but during the New Year's Festival, the prince will send someone to send a little rice oil and the like, and there is no deep friendship with others, but since Su Hanzhen is the prince's confidant, then I think even if the Su family is not from the East Palace, then at least they support the prince." ”

After a pause, Tianxing asked curiously, "What are you asking for?" Did something happen to Sioux House? ”

Wu Jin nodded, "There is news I want to ask you to tell the crown prince that Uncle Shen is now trying his best to win over Su Hanchang, and he wants to help Guan Lian, the servant of the Ministry of Rites, marry Su Hanchang, once the marriage is successful, the situation in Donghai County will be delicate." ”

Tianxing was taken aback, "There is still such a thing?" ”

Wu Jin smiled quietly, "It's true, this morning, Uncle Shen's wife went to the Su family to submit the marriage certificate, if the prince doesn't believe me, you can inquire." ”

The news brought by Wujin made Tianxing feel that the situation was very serious, it was obvious that Uncle Shen Guo was digging into the corner of the Su family and fighting for Su Hanzhen from the side, once the Su family and the Guan family in Weiyang County married, Su Hanzhen might not be completely on the prince's side.

Tianxing also had no intention of drinking, drank all the wine in the cup, and then got up and said, "I will go to report to the prince immediately, thank you for the news, and leave first." ”

He turned around and snatched the door out, leaving Wu Jin alone in the room, he picked up his glass and smiled proudly, tilted his neck, and drank the wine down.

At this time, the door opened, and the guy and a few maids came up with the dishes, and they couldn't help but be stunned when they saw that there was only one person, what about the other person?

Wu Jin smiled slightly, "You might as well bring the dishes up!" I'm alone. ”
