Chapter 38: Prudence and trust
Yurui came to the West Garden, entered the hall, opened the door curtain, and walked through the inner room, but Mrs. Wen Sichun was not there.
She was puzzled, and Madame's maid Xueqin greeted her, "Miss Rui is here?" Madame is just talking to you. ”
Yu Rui was stunned, "Madam, aren't you there?" ”
"Miss Fang Cai Yujiao is here, and Madame accompanies her to the garden." Xueqin smiled, "Madame instructed me, girl, you are here, let the slave take you over." Girl, please come with me! ”
"There is Sister Lao Xueqin!"
Miss Lou Yujiao came to find Mrs. Wen? Yu Rui pondered, probably encountered something, and came to discuss with her mother-in-law. Although the Wen family is not Yujiao's mother, she is sincere in taking care of Yujiao.
Wen married because Yujiao in swaddling clothes needed to be taken care of. Mrs. has good medical skills, and has a motherly heart, raised Yujiao very well, and taught the girl knowledge and insight.
Xueqin led the way, and Yurui followed closely behind, through the courtyard, walking through the verandah, and came to Zhilanxuan in the depths of the garden.
Zhilanxuan was close to the water pavilion in the center of the garden, and Lou Yujiao was sitting next to Mrs. Wen, and the two were talking in a low voice. The mother and daughter seem to be very close and harmonious.
Wen raised his eyes, and at a glance saw the slender figure that appeared on the garden path, and stood up and walked out of Zhilanxuan to greet him.
"Miss Rui, I heard something happened last night? I wonder if you can come. Wen kindly took his right hand and asked as he walked, "Is there anything wrong?" Does it matter? ”
"Don't worry," Yu Rui lowered her eyes, worried in her heart, lest Mrs. would scold her, "It's Yu Rui's recklessness that makes Mrs. worry!" ”
"It's okay, it's okay, the so-called eat a trench, grow a wisdom, you don't need to blame yourself so much!"
Wen Sichun gently stroked the back of her hand, raised his eyes to look at her slightly haggard white face, and felt very unbearable. The little girl is a little aggressive, and after suffering this loss, she will be careful in the future. Fortunately, she is a good person, she didn't make a big mistake, and there is no need to hold on to these details.
"Madame,......"
Madame didn't teach her a lesson?
Yurui raised her eyes, and there was doubt in her eyes, "Then, why did Madam call me?" ”
"Sister Rui, please take a seat!" Yu Jiao had already gotten up, took her left hand, and surrounded her into Zhilanxuan with the Wen family.
"Today, it's Kyaukjiao Tuo Niang who is looking for you." Yujiao helped her sit down, poured a full cup of tea and handed it over.
Miss Chang's words were earnest, but her eyes were a little wandering.
"Miss Yan is polite, if you have something to do, just tell me!" She is gentle and amiable, and Jade Rui likes her very much.
"Jiaojiao doesn't take Sister Rui as an outsider," Yujiao's eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, her phoenix eyes were crooked, and her jade fingers pinched the silk handkerchief, "Sister, Jiaojiao has something to trust, and I ask my sister to agree!" ”
"Miss Jade, please speak up!"
"Sister Rui, do you know that Wen Yunshi will?"
"The annual Wen Yun Poetry Club?" Yurui nodded and said with a smile: "After the saint ascended the throne, he did it for the selection of talents, promoted the virtuous and did not avoid relatives, heroes did not ask where they came from, and selected virtuous and talented students with outstanding abilities for the use of the country. ”
"Exactly!" Wen nodded frequently and said with a smile: "What Miss Rui has seen is good. In his later years, the Wenyun Poetry Club was supervised by the superintendent of Taixue. This year's Wenyun Poetry Society, the saint made a decree, which was run by the prince Yuanchen, and first, for the prince's smooth ascension, and the nobles of the various clans were attracted to strengthen the momentum; Second, to gather a group of students with real talents and practical learning for the prince to use in the future. ”
"Well, that's right," Yu Rui thought carefully and nodded, "The prince is seventeen years old, Tianhuang is noble, and the East Palace is on the throne, as it should be!" ”
"With the appointment of the saint, the prince personally presided over such a grand event, and invited the famous nobles of the capital to watch the ceremony together,...... Prince, sent someone to send an invitation letter to Yujiao," Wen paused for a moment and asked, "I wonder if Miss Rui is interested in going to watch the ceremony with Yujiao?" ”
"Yurui, a vulgar woman in the mountains and wilderness, how can she enter the hall of elegance?"
"The girl should not be humble, the girl acts politely and politely, how can she be said?" Wen's words were gentle and drizzly, and extremely sincere, "Besides, when Jiao'er Xiuhu was assassinated, my heart was always uneasy, for fear that someone would embarrass Jiaojiao,...... So, please go with Miss Rui. ”
Yu Rui nodded, "Wen Yunbi will be a matter for the sons, does Miss Yujiao have to go?" ”
How can she say that the day she marries into the East Palace is death?
In the last life, she participated in the grand event as a stand-in, and the prince Yuanchen gave her a five-blessing jade Ruyi. She accepted it in a daze, but she didn't know that this jade Ruyi was the prince's love thing, and which girl the prince liked, so she gave this thing to the selected princess.
The grand event, is it not a concubine selection conference? The crown prince's concubine position has been vacant, and the prince is afraid that he will already be interested in Yujiao.
"Miss Rui probably doesn't know that not only men participate in the Wen Yun Poetry Club, but girls from all families are also vying to go, so as to gain some knowledge and see the demeanor of literati and artists!"
Mrs. Wen didn't know what she was thinking, and when she saw her sitting there in a daze, she smiled and said, "Second, it's also a good place for each family to choose a son-in-law!" If there is a son who is really talented and learned, and he enters the eyes of the fern girl, the mansion will come out for you to say goodbye. ”
"Oh, don't make fun of Yu Rui, madam," Yu Rui lowered her head in shame when she heard this, and a touch of red light flew up her cheeks, "Those noble sons should look at famous and noble girls, and people probably can't look down on me as a vulgar girl." ”
She was stupid in her heart, so she didn't want to be looked at by those sons! She has to choose her husband, not to mention how noble and illustrious, the important thing is to have her in her heart, and there can only be her and no other woman.
"Alright, no kidding!"
Seeing that she couldn't help but laugh, Mrs. Wen restrained her smile, very serious, "At the Yujiao and Lu banquet, an assassin suddenly appeared on the painting boat,...... Someone is targeting the building. The invitation of the prince's mansion can't be pushed back, but how can it be good? ”
"Well, I can only go." Yu Rui knew that she couldn't persuade her, "I promised to go with the identity of the girl Yujiao, the identity of the girl is extraordinary, and the girl is still pretending to be a stand-in?" ”
"No!" Wen Sichun shook his head, "You look very similar to Kyaukyao, but you probably can't fool people who are familiar with her and close to her!" ”
"Madame is very right!" Jade nodded.
In the last life, she was a stand-in for three years, didn't anyone see it? Until the day she married into the prince's mansion, everything went well. How can I say this?
I can't say what I thought in my heart. Because the prince is ready, he will give Yu Jiao a gold-inlaid Wufu Jade Ruyi, and he basically locked the candidate for the crown princess.
Wen Sichun nodded, and said: "The current queen is Yujiao's aunt, who gave birth to a princess who died early, and then she has no children. The crown prince is from the imperial concubine, and the concubine is from the Yongning Marquis Mansion. Loufu and Xie Mansion have a very good relationship, you live down, and some rules will be slowly told to you. ”
"Yes, Yu Rui understands."
