Chapter 436, Comparison
It is precisely because it is difficult to say what will happen in the future, although Mrs. Li is reluctant to get too close to the imperial concubine, she definitely does not want to offend her.
Not to mention, although Tong Yao's words were not asked in public, there were many people around who heard them, and Mrs. Li couldn't help but respond.
"Back to the imperial concubine Niangniang, the dog grandson is eighteen, his birthday is small, it is the end of the year, this child's family affairs are a little not smooth, and I have seen several families, none of which are suitable, the old body is not less worried about this, and I went to the monk to calculate a hexagram, saying that the red luan star has not moved."
Tong Yao naturally knew that these words were a pretext, although she was a little angry and dissatisfied, but it also boosted her fighting spirit.
She didn't believe it, she couldn't handle Zeng Rong and Zhu Heng, and she couldn't handle a Zhenguo Gong!
However, she didn't really want to promote this family business, she just wanted to insert a foot in the middle and muddy the water, she didn't sit in vain for half a day, and she also understood one thing, the ancestors and grandchildren of the Zhang family must have fallen in love with Zhu Heng, but Zhu Heng took a fancy to Zeng Rong, and it was Zeng Rong who wanted to marry.
The Queen Mother naturally would not agree to her precious grandson marrying a peasant girl from a small palace girl, she was an example back then, no, the same operation happened again.
In this case, if she doesn't make some efforts to make things bigger, how can she be worthy of the tears she has shed and the humiliation she has suffered in the past twenty years!
Tong Yao has more connections than Zhu Hengda, and her people have already told her that Zeng Rong was sent to the Huanyi Bureau, and when she learned that Chang Dezi personally sent it, Tong Yao understood that the emperor's move was for show, but in fact it was to protect Zeng Rong from being punished by the Queen Mother and the Empress.
Also, the Queen Mother announced the Imperial Doctor in the afternoon, Zhu Heng has not moved, and has been with him all night in the afternoon, most of them were also frightened by the Queen Mother's anger.
I don't know if she sees someone proposing to the eldest princess of Jingyang on the spot, will she rush to settle Zhu Heng's family affairs in a hurry?
Does Zhu Heng dare to resist when he learns that his family affair has been decided? Also, what would he do if he learned that the girl he wanted was sent to the Huanyi Bureau? Will the old lady be so angry with her grandson's behavior that she will collapse again?
It's a bit of a stretch to look forward to.
"Old man, at this time and that time, maybe, this red luan star has begun to move, this palace looks at the girls who come here are all good, could it be that your old man is not in love?" Tong Yao still asked with a smile.
"Back to the imperial concubine, the girls here are all golden branches and jade leaves, and the old body is only afraid of abrupt others, how dare you think of anything else?" Old Madam Li replied with sincere fear.
There was a busy interjection next to him who was not afraid of big things: "The old man is wrong, your granddaughters have married into the Huainan Palace, your grandson is one of the four princes in the capital, your old man is going to loosen his mouth, I am afraid that the threshold of the Zhenguo Mansion will be stepped on by the matchmaker." ”
This is not all joke and exaggeration, the Li family is the head of the eight princes, holding 100,000 soldiers, Li Man himself is a beautiful son with both civil and military skills, and the four princes rank first, but because of the presence of the imperial concubine, everyone is embarrassed to mention this name, after all, Zhu Wu's identity is the prince, and he has to take care of the face of their mother and son.
"That's right, don't say that the palace has forgotten, it seems that your Li family and our royal family have a lot of fate." Tong Yao smiled happily.
As soon as he said this, most of the people around him understood who Tong Yao was alluding to, and although there were a few people who had shown their talents just now who were related to the royal family, except for Zhang Ruxin, the others were not outstanding.
Thinking of Zhang Ruxin, everyone also thought of the one who played the opening song "Mountains and Flowing Water" and the second song "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", could it be that these two people are not the same person? The latter is Li Man?
So who is the former?
It is said that when you hear the song and know the elegance, the former refused to respond at first, and the two of them played their own games, and many people present thought that the person would be Zhu Wu, because Zhu Wu was engaged, and the woman could not appear, so Zhu Wu could only stick to his own rhythm in order to express his heart.
But the two of them cooperated so well in the second piece that everyone once thought that the other party was expressing their apologies, of course, there were also insiders who could tell that the two were not the same person, but they couldn't say it in public at that time.
Therefore, after listening to Tong Yao's words, some people immediately echoed it, and many people just understood.
Li Man with Zhang Ruxin? Soon some people began to compare these two people, if you talk about family background, appearance, and talent, these two people are really a match made in heaven, but the problem is that Zhang Ruxin can't speak.
This is too wronged by the first son of the capital, right?
Besides, Li Man is the grandson, and he will take over the Zhenguo Mansion in the future, and Zhang Ruxin will marry to be the head of the house, not to mention anything else, this will not be able to do this as a presiding officer, right?
She can't just nod or shake her head to decide, right?
Even if she can use a pen to replace her mouth, how many of the people are literate?
In such a comparison, some people were silent, and some people took a few steps away for some reason, this matter can no longer be mixed, whether it is to offend the imperial concubine or the Li family, it is not advisable.
At this time, the eldest princess of Jingyang came over, and she also heard someone mention the sound of the piano and flute intermittently, guessing that someone was mentioning her granddaughter, so she came to join in the fun.
"Back to the eldest princess, it's not a big deal, we are discussing the eldest son of the Li family, they all say that such a good character and talent, I don't know which girl will go cheaper in the future." After Tong Yao finished speaking, she smiled at Jingyang meaningfully.
Jingyang grew up in the palace, and has been the housewife for all these years, and now she is here at the age of now, and she has experience and experience, seeing this, what else do you not understand?
She naturally knows that Li Man has never been married so far, and she also knows how good Li Man is, but she knows better her granddaughter's ability, and Xin'er, the wife in charge of the Zhenguo Mansion, can't do it.
Although Xin'er also divided the mansion and lived separately after marrying Zhu Heng, Zhu Heng would definitely have to be crowned king at that time, and the rules and pomp of the palace would definitely be greater than that of the Zhenguo Mansion, and it would be more difficult to talk about the wife of the palace.
But that's two different things.
The palace is new, the population is simple, at the beginning, there are only two serious masters, but the Zhenguo Mansion has been nearly a hundred years, the branches are luxuriant, there are many children and nephews, and the grandparents are complicated, not to mention that the masters are difficult, even those housekeepers and stewards who have been over the years have no worries.
Therefore, Jingyang weighed again and again and chose Zhu Heng.
Fortunately, her granddaughter also took a fancy to Zhu Heng, no, Jingyang suddenly realized one thing, these people mentioned Li Man, isn't the person who played with his granddaughter Li Man, not Zhu Heng?
Jing Yang, who realized it later, looked at Mrs. Li, and then at Tong Yao, she wanted to see some clues from the faces of these two people.
