Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Eldest Princess's Banquet
Just remembered the wife that the second brother had married in his previous life on the carriage, and he still had a vague impression, but now that he saw the real person, Ji Ruhuan remembered that it was one of the pink-shirted women standing behind the eldest princess.
Seeing someone at this time, Ji Ruhuan vaguely remembered that this woman was the cousin of the county lord of Huining, the younger brother of Yu Yuma, and the concubine of Lord Yu, the household servant.
Just when the grandmother mentioned the second brother's family affairs, such a coincidence at the eldest princess's banquet saw the woman the second brother married in his previous life, could it be that the second brother's relatives in the previous life were not Aunt Yun's Zhang Luo, but the grandmother came to the eldest princess's mansion to attend the banquet and saw the girl of the Yu family, and then set it for the second brother?
Looking at it like this, this woman looks gentle and lovely, I am afraid that after marrying the second brother, she will change to another face.
At this time, the eldest princess who sat in the first place spoke, "I took the liberty to invite everyone today, there is no plum to reward, and please forgive me, it is really these days that Kyoto has come to Kyoto because of the assassin matter, and the palace wants to be lively and lively, and now the assassin matter has finally come to light, and the palace can finally relax its heart, so I can't wait to invite you over." ”
Then a woman opened her mouth and said, "Your Highness is polite, it is an honor for the courtiers and others to be favored by His Highness." ”
"Speaking of this assassin, Old Madam Ji and the Fengyang County Lord are afraid that they are frightened, are the two of you okay?" The eldest princess suddenly looked at Ji Ruhuan and said.
Old Madam Ji hurriedly answered, "His Royal Highness Lao cares, and it's okay to have His Majesty's protection." ”
The eldest princess smiled and said, "That's good, the palace is still worried, General Ji is injured, the rest of the Ji family is not in Beijing, no one is in charge, I don't want General Ji's sons to be adults and be able to take charge on their own." ”
Old Madam Ji replied, "Your Highness praises falsely, and you are still a few yellow-mouthed children, and you can't afford it." ”
"Old Madam Ji is modest, and the palace will not go around the corner," at this time, the eldest princess's words changed, and she said, "The people who called you here today are all unmarried sons of the right age in the family, and all of them are outstanding talents, which is praiseworthy." ”
As soon as these words came out, these ladies had almost guessed two or three, and their children and grandchildren were praised, and there was already a satisfied and expectant smile on their faces.
"It's really these girls around this palace, they have reached the age of marriage, but they haven't landed yet, this palace is a straight person, and they won't beat around the bush, so they simply invited a few ladies to look at each other. ”
Ji Ruhuan frowned, this eldest princess really thought of it, when the girl next to her was cabbage, did she call someone to pick it at will? Why didn't she bring her daughter over for everyone to choose?
She said, why didn't she see the county lord of Huining, she was the only daughter of the eldest princess, could she not be called out for this plum banquet?
What is the idea of this eldest princess? Why did she suddenly become a matchmaker and give Zhang Luo family affairs.
At the same time, I was worried about how to dispel my grandmother's thoughts and prevent her from having the idea of marrying this girl from the Yu family today.
At this time, the eldest princess had already begun to introduce several women around her, "This girl is the concubine of Yu Ziheng, the second brother of the palace concubine, called Yu Ping, although she is a concubine, but the second brother and sister of the palace do not have a daughter, and she has always kept this girl by her side, and she is no ......different from the concubine."
Ji Ruhuan's eyes flashed, and she hurriedly leaned into her grandmother's ear and whispered, "Grandmother, this eldest princess doesn't take our Zhenguo Mansion too seriously, our brother has no distinction between concubines and concubines, the eldest princess has found a bunch of concubines from the Ma family to be a matchmaker to pull the red line, is it because she wants to stuff the concubines of the Yu family into our family?"
Old Madam Ji frowned and reprimanded in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense. ”
Ji Ruhuan didn't plan to shut up like this, and continued to mutter, "Look at these people who were invited, they are not well-known, my father was just injured and recuperating at home, but he was not taken away from his official position, and he actually looked down on us like this." ”
Old Madam Ji's face gradually darkened, and she reprimanded coldly again, "Shut up." ”
Seeing that her grandmother was already angry, Ji Ruhuan couldn't continue to speak, but looking at her grandmother's face, what she just said should have played a certain role.
"Old Madam Ji, what do you think of these girls?" the eldest princess suddenly looked over and asked.
Old Madam Ji had a smile on her face, but she was obviously a little perfunctory, and said, "Well, they are all good girls." ”
The eldest princess smiled and said, "The palace is still worried that Old Madam Ji will not be able to look at it, but I don't know which girl is more suitable for Old Madam Ji's eyes?"
Old Madam Ji responded, "There is no shortage of girls around me, thank you for the kindness of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment when she heard Mrs. Ji's words, and when she came back to her senses, the smile on her face gradually became a little unbearable, but it was not good to turn her face directly, so she only smiled and said, "Old Madam Ji is really good at laughing." ”
Ji Ruhuan couldn't wait to applaud her grandmother when she heard it, this stupid pretending was really just right.
The eldest princess didn't seem to give up, and continued, "This palace remembers that there are still a few brothers in Mrs. Ji's family who are not married, aren't these girls able to get into the eyes of Mrs. Ji?"
Without waiting for Mrs. Ji to answer, Ji Ruhuan took the first step to clap her hands and responded, "That's right, grandmother, my eldest brother is not young, and he is not married, and he is quite compatible with the county lord of Huining of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”
Ji Ruhuan had an innocent smile on her face, and continued, "Grandmother, Huan'er and the county lord of Huining are the best, if only the county lord of Huining could be Huan'er's sister-in-law." ”
Everyone was silent and looked at Ji Ruhuan, the smile on the eldest princess's face finally couldn't be hung up, and a pair of eyes stared at Ji Ruhuan tightly, eager to breathe fire.
Old Madam Ji didn't have anything to say, and there was no joy or anger on her face.
Neither of them spoke, of course the others remained silent and did not dare to speak casually, but Ji Ruhuan still said innocently, "Grandmother, what do you say? But why didn't I see the county lord of Huining today, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, why didn't the county lord of Huining come? Huan'er still wanted to catch up with her." ”
The eldest princess was annoyed, but she still had to pretend to be calm on her face, and said with a smile, "Huining is a little uncomfortable today, and when she is well, the palace will let her have a separate banquet for the lord of Fengyang County to catch up with the past." ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Ji Ruhuan to speak, so he opened his mouth again and said to Old Madam Ji, "This palace thinks that the second son of Old Madam Ji's family is very compatible with Yu Ping, the nephew of this palace, I don't know what Old Madam Ji thinks?"
Mrs. Ji replied, "The old body thanks His Royal Highness for his grandson's love, but the eldest grandson's family affairs have not yet been settled, and he was tossed by his father to the bitter cold military camp to experience. ”
Ji Ruhuan responded, "That's it, Your Highness, why don't we discuss the relationship between my eldest brother and Sister Huining first." ”
