61. Marriage

In the first year of Jinglong, Shen Mengxi moved to Chang'an.

Yin'er and Lu'er should get married, and Li Xian gave his nephew and niece mansions in Chang'an respectively, which is to urge Shen Mengxi to move to Chang'an.

And Yin'er finally got her wish and married Cui Shi Niangzi.

After Mrs. Fang died, he had been waiting for Cui Shi Niangzi persistently, refusing to look at other ladies, and not accepting the ladies that Shen Mengxi was looking for for him.

In recent years, Cui Jin was retaliated against by the five kings for refusing to cooperate with the forced palace, and on the other hand, he was disliked by Li Xian because of the poor management of his subordinates who violated the order.

Mrs. Fang's death hit him very hard, the relationship between their husband and wife was very deep, and the death of his wife was inseparable from him, and the whole person was devastated.

It has been a year since Mrs. Fang's death, and Mrs. Cui made the decision and found him a concubine who looked like Mrs. Fang, but Cui Jin refused twice, but still accepted.

Cui Shi Niangzi saw that her parents were deeply affectionate and loyal, and now she watched her father happily accept a concubine, and she didn't know whether she should believe that there was true love in the world for a while, and she also had a grudge against her grandmother. How could Mrs. Cui not see her granddaughter's emotions, so she asked her to come to her and said in detail, "Your aunt has passed away, but my son is still alive!" No aunt could bear to watch her son decadently for the rest of his life. The affection in the world, there is no immutability, your aunt was alive to get your father's favor and loyalty, it is rare, presumably your aunt has knowledge, and I don't want your father to be lonely and old! ”

Cui Shi Niangzi cried and fell on Mrs. Cui's knees, and her tears wet Mrs. Cui's skirt.

"The king of Shouyang County is a good one, your grandfather watched him grow up, and his grandmother inquired, he is in Luoyang, and he has not been married, although he has not said it explicitly, but it must be related to you." Mrs. Cui patted her granddaughter on the back and said.

Cui Shi Niangzi stopped crying, straightened up, and was a little stunned.

"Princess......" she remembered that her grandmother did not look down on the princess's mansion at the beginning.

"By the time my grandmother was her age, she no longer looked at people with her eyes. The princess is not what it is rumored. Despite saying this, Mrs. Cui couldn't help but think of Princess Taiping coming to condole, and her words were amazing.

Cui Shi Niangzi nodded.

"Although you can't marry without filial piety, you can get married. If there is a suitable one, grandmother still has to plan for you. Old Madam Cui looked at her granddaughter inquiringly. Cui Shi Niangzi hung her head in shame and nodded again.

In the end, Shen Mengxi couldn't see his son suffering, so he invited Mrs. Di Guangyuan to visit the Cui Mansion, but he didn't expect that although the Cui family did not agree, it was also relieved, Yin'er went to Chang'an happily, looking for an opportunity to meet Cui Shi Niangzi twice, and when he returned to Luoyang, he urged Shen Mengxi to hurry up and leave the six rites.

Shen Mengxi's heart was sour, but she understood that if Yin'er did not achieve this wish, Cui Shi Niangzi would become the knot of his life, and no matter who he married, he might not be happy.

sighed, fortunately, I am marrying a daughter-in-law, not a daughter, this in-law family, let's get married! The only pity is that Ding Siniang has never been married, Shen Mengxi knows that she really likes Yin'er, and it is a pity in her heart.

Lu Xingzhi served as the assistant teacher of Liupin Guozi, although he was not ugly, but he was not amazingly handsome, but Luer liked it, and she couldn't either. Li Xian gave a mansion of Yongle Fang to Lu'er, and named him the lord of Baoquan, and by the way, Yu'er was crowned the lord of Yuhua.

Therefore, no matter how unwilling she is, Shen Mengxi also wants to go to Chang'an, she only hates that she can't really become a monk.

On the second day of Chang'an, Shen Mengxi solemnly entered the palace to meet Li Xian.

But I saw that Nawu Sansi was also in the emperor's dormitory, and there were also Empress Wei and Shangguan Wan'er, and the four of them were sitting together. Seeing Shen Mengxi come in, Li Xian clapped his hands happily and got up to greet him, just like when he was not the emperor, with a sincere smile on his face, which made Shen Mengxi have mixed feelings in his heart.

Shen Mengxi wanted to make a big salute, but was stopped by Li Xian, pointed to the case and said: "Yue'er is exempt from courtesy, why should the family be polite, come on, only you can compete with Wan'er, and King Liang is also defeated."

There was a backgammon board on the desk, with pieces staggered, and it was clear that they were playing before she came in.

"Yue'er is not good at this, so don't be ugly. How is the third brother in good health in recent years? After Shen Mengxi and the other three saluted each other, he sat next to Li Xian, looked at his face and asked.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Li Xian's harem has a new beauty from the Western Regions, a Goryeo beauty, if it weren't for Wu Sansi entering the palace, he would generally be in the apse. Most of the political affairs were handled by Empress Wei, and these two years were the most chic days of his life.

Shen Mengxi saw his way of survival from the eyes of this honest and cowardly emperor, knew that it was unnecessary to worry about him, and said with a smile: "That Yue'er will rest assured!" ”

Empress Wei and Shangguan Wan'er are both in their forties, slightly blessed, but still radiant, full of pearls, gorgeous skirts, shoulders draped with light gauze and half arms, most of the skin on their chests are exposed, the waves are turbulent, and although their faces are covered with heavy makeup, they still can't hide their complacency.

Empress Wei saw Shen Mengxi's face that resembled Emperor Wu, and suddenly remembered that Emperor Wu had killed his own son and daughter, and twitched the corners of her eyes uncontrollably. In the past, she was only in awe of Emperor Wu, but now facing the face of Princess Taiping, she was subconsciously afraid for a moment, but then she remembered that she was now the mother of a country, and she was afraid of what she would do!

The expression couldn't help but be awe-inspiring, Shen Mengxi noticed it and pretended not to be aware.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Princess Taiping and was stunned for a moment, she didn't think that Emperor Wu was alive, Emperor Wu had passed away, and when she looked at Taiping again, she felt that their mother and daughter were really like Xiao. How could she forget the long years of accompanying Emperor Wu, her eyes couldn't help but get wet, she couldn't help but get up, went to the princess, and bowed again. Shen Mengxi held her and smiled at her.

Wu Sansi was not as submissive as he was to Emperor Wu at the beginning, and he couldn't even raise his head, he half-raised his chin and glanced at Shen Mengxi, his eyes flashed with calculation, and he didn't shy away from it.

Shen Mengxi felt that he was even more disgusting than Wu Chenghe.

"Taiping, Jian'er hasn't decided to marry yet, Brother Fool has a young daughter, who is exactly the same age as Jian'er, so it's better to ......"

Without waiting for Wu Sansi to finish speaking, Shen Mengxi interrupted him and said with a smile: "King Liang, from my mother's side, we are cousins, but from the side of Youji, we can be regarded as a family, how can the children get married!" ”

Wu Sansi's face twitched, he had been smooth sailing in the past few years, Wu Youji had lived in Luoyang for a long time, he almost forgot this cousin, and he also forgot that Princess Taiping was the daughter-in-law of the Wu family, and blurted out that he wanted to marry her.

Shangguan Wan'er promptly turned the topic to the last poetry meeting, which resolved Wu Sansi's embarrassment.

Li Xian stayed with Shen Mengxi for lunch, and during the banquet, Shen Mengxi found that Wu Sansi and Empress Wei were secretly exchanging eyes, and also saw Wu Sansi's hand on Shangguan Wan'er's ankle. Li Xian only cared about gossiping with her, his eyes lit up, and he didn't notice it at all.

Shen Mengxi smiled, everyone has their own needs, each has their own needs, the parties don't mind, why should she bother.
