Chapter 53: A Case
Wang Xi calmed down when he thought about it.
Fortunately, no matter who takes a fancy to Wang Xi, as usual, it is impossible for Mrs. Xiangyang Houfu to give people a matchmaker at this time, so why wait for the birthday feast of the eldest princess of Baoqing to end, find an opportunity to officially go to Yongcheng Houfu as a guest, and then test the attitude of Yongcheng Houfu.
This matter passed after a few jokes.
Wang Xi also pretended not to know, and followed Mrs. Tai to the people around her for a while, and then followed her to pay homage to the eldest princess.
Although the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion was arranged in the first group of people, it can be seen from the interaction between the female dependents of the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion and the people around them that the female dependents of the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion are far inferior to those of Jiangchuan Bofu, even compared with the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion.
It can be seen that the Marquis of Yongcheng can have its current status, all of which depends on the men in the family who can still have a foothold in the officialdom, and the Marquis of Yongcheng can enter the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies by virtue of holy grace. This is like a woman who serves people in Israel, and if she doesn't talk about it for a long time, if she is down, she doesn't even have a real helper.
It's too dangerous!
Wang Xi looked at it, and felt more and more that the capital was not a place to stay for a long time, and it would be best if he could return to Shuzhong before the New Year.
The eldest princess of Baoqing changed into a bright red woven gold Zhai robe, wearing a dotted emerald phoenix crown that only the queen is qualified to wear, and sat on the Luohan bed with radiance.
Qinggu and Cuigu both served by her side.
When Wang Xi went in to greet her birthday, she didn't know if her heart was too big or she had other ideas, so she actually smiled at Wang Xi. Laughing so much that Wang Xi's heart was furious, until the end of dinner, she smoothly followed the lady of Yongcheng Houfu out of the eldest princess's mansion, and her heart did not settle down.
She found that Princess Baoqing and Chen Luo were worthy of being mother and son, and they both had that ability to make people uneasy.
It's just that when she got into the sedan chair, Chang Ke pulled her sleeves, and whispered to her: "We'll go back together when we go home." ”
According to the etiquette, after they returned home, they had to go to greet Mrs. Tai first, and then they could go back to their rooms to rest.
Wang Xi thought that Chang Ke should have something to say to her, nodded, and after greeting Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Tai was also very tired, so she didn't keep them, urging everyone to disperse early, and also avoided greeting her early the next morning, saying, "Everyone is tired today, have a good rest at night." The first day of May is the birthday of Mrs. Hou of Xiangyang Houfu, and I invited a few good families to celebrate. These days, you should prepare your clothes and jewelry for the birthday party. On May 14, the 60th birthday of the Han family's Lao Anren, a few of you juniors also went to join in the fun. ”
What is this? Socializing from now on?
However, what about the old people of the Han family?
In the marriage with the Marquis of Yongcheng, the surname Han is only the Yue family of Chang Sanye, and Miyunwei is the commander of Han Lin.
Their home is in Miyun!
Do they still have to travel to Miyun tirelessly?
Wang Xi didn't plan to go.
But she wisely didn't say it at this time, after all, she didn't know what was going on.
The others didn't ask, everyone thanked Mrs. Tai with a smile, and walked out of Yuchun Hall.
Wang Xi and Chang Ke walked back together, who knew that Miss Pan, who was usually with Chang Yan, was also with them. At this time, Wang Xi and Chang Ke are not good at saying anything considerate.
Chang Ke's brows frowned almost invisibly, and finally he was determined to vomit even if he offended Miss Pan, and said to Miss Pan when he walked to Qingxue Garden: "I made an appointment with Cousin Wang today to spend the night here......
The implication is to let Miss Pan go back by herself.
Miss Pan is a caring person, and immediately said, "Then I'll go back first." She also asked Chang Ke if she wanted her to bring a message to Chang Ke's grandmother in the house.
In the young lady's house that has not been out of the cabinet, there is a housekeeper who is responsible for teaching.
Chang Ke thanked him, pointed to the two maids beside him to go back and get her the usual toiletries, and entered Qingxue Garden with Wang Xi.
As soon as she stepped into the courtyard gate, she couldn't wait to pull Wang Xi and whispered: "Do you know which family's son the wife of the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion wants to tell you?" It is the cousin of the sixth lady of Qingyun Hou Mansion, the youngest son of the Bo family, Bo Mingyue! ”
"What did you say?" Wang Xi stood up suddenly, stunned and couldn't believe his ears, "You heard it right, right?" Bo Mingyue of Qingyun Marquis Mansion?! ”
It is said that he is the top meat of the wife of the Marquis of Qingyun.
A boy like him who grew up in a honey pot, the elders of the family are not allowed to hold it, do you think that no girl in this world is worthy of him? Mrs. Xiangyang Houfu is not that mindless, how could she think of being a matchmaker for her and Bo Mingyue?
Isn't she afraid that the matchmaker will not succeed and become an enemy?
Chang Ke hurriedly said: "Oh, what do you know? Bo Mingyue said, if it is about family background, who can compare to their Qingyun Hou Mansion! That's non-existent. If he wants to take a wife, he must marry a beautiful one. Mrs. Xiangyang Houfu must have seen that you were good-looking, so she started to think of being a matchmaker. Maybe he secretly pointed it out to the people of Qingyun Hou's Mansion to see it.
"You must not agree to this!
"Don't look at the Qingyun Marquis Mansion like flowers now, but as long as the prince's matter is not settled for a day, no one can say what will happen to the Qingyun Marquis Mansion. Instead of marrying at this time, it is better to be safe and find a safe family. Besides, that Bo Mingyue has liked to hang out with beautiful girls since she was a child, and if she wants to serve in his house, she has to look at her face first.
"Even individuals can't stand it.
"Their family can only deceive the people who come from outside.
"But I listened to Chang Yan's meaning, and my grandmother also thought that this was a very good family affair. If the Qingyun Marquis Mansion came to propose, the grandmother would definitely agree. You hurry up and bring a letter to your family's big shopkeeper, and find a way to let your eldest brother or aunt know about this, whether it's a letter or a person, you can't marry into the Bo family no matter what. ”
Wang Xi couldn't help laughing, and he couldn't wait to cross his waist and raise his head and laugh three times.
If the Bo family really comes to propose, it is really worth seeing!
Bo Mingyue wanted to get out and came up with the idea of exchanging her fame, but in the blink of an eye, the girl they had a crush on was rumored to admire Chen Luo...... Is this retribution?
Wang Xi really wanted to say to Chang Ke that let the Bo family come to propose, and it was best to come and propose as soon as possible.
Bo Mingyue's face must be very interesting!
Chang Ke misunderstood that Wang Xi thought that Mrs. Xiangyang Houfu was whimsical, so she was so anxious that she pulled Wang Xi into the inner room, pressed her in front of the big kang by the window, and said, "My aunt, don't think it's a joke." You are not only beautiful, but also have a lot of money, if it weren't for the fact that several princes didn't marry wives and didn't dare to take a concubine first, it would not be impossible to marry a prince. Don't think I'm alarmist! ”
"No, no!" Wang Xi comforted Chang Ke.
Anan served refreshments.
Mama Wang, who heard the news, also rushed over.
She said hurriedly, "What's going on! Did Mrs. Xiangyang Houfu talk to herself, or did Qingyun Marquis Mansion already hand over a message to Mrs. Xiangyang Houfu? Who else was present when he said this? What did each of them say? ”
Mama Wang mainly thinks that "Qi Da is not a couple", and Bo Mingyue is not a good match for Wang Xi.
Chang Ke is not very clear, saying that he heard what Miss Pan said: "The third sister also said the same, I don't think it's like a rumor." ”
But in this way, if you ask me and I ask you, it is a waste of time not to say, and it is easy to get wrong information.
Mama Wang said: "Mama Shi should have been serving by Mrs. Tai's side, if there is really such a thing, she should know best, I will ask her." Then he thanked Chang Ke for his kindness.
Chang Ke's face flushed, and he said straightly: "Ah Xi and I are sisters, I hope that I am good, and I also hope that she can be good." ”
Mama Wang couldn't help but look at her differently.
Chang Ke is not conspicuous among the sisters, and the family style of the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion is not very good, but I didn't expect her to be a rare integrity.
From then on, Mama Wang was willing to take care of her for a thing or two, which is not to be mentioned.
She hurried to Mama Shi's.
Wang Xi urged Chang Ke to freshen up and rest early.
There was so much going on today that she had to take care of it.
The old is always new. Only by frequent reflection can you know where you are not doing well enough, and how to deal with things in the future.
Chang Ke was furious and said, "Can you serve a snack?" ”
Wang Xi smiled: "Didn't Mama Wang go to inquire about the news?" It's useless for us to be in a hurry! You might as well have a good rest, and you will have the energy to deal with it tomorrow! ”
Chang Ke thought about it and felt that it made sense. But she was still worried in the end, tossing and turning, and playing the drum for three watches before falling asleep in a daze.
Wang Xi, who understood all the truths, lay on the bed with his eyes closed, and he never fell asleep.
The affairs of the Qingyun Marquis Mansion can not be worried for the time being, and the affairs of the eldest princess of Baoqing have Chen Luo's support, and there is no need to think about it, but the fourth prince owes her a personal debt, but she has to think about it.
She can't lose her reputation, and she doesn't get any benefits.
But one of the four princes is neither a concubine nor a long-term prince, and the mother concubine is still beautiful and not very favored, what benefits can it bring her? It's really like Lu Buwei, and the four princes are not winning politics!
But forget it like this, Wang Xi is unwilling.
The Four Princes can always be useful, right?
Business in the capital, you don't have to think about it.
A mountain is taller than a mountain.
Instead of counting on the four princes who did not become a vassal, it is better to expect Bo Mingyue to repay this debt of favors.
Business in Gangnam? I don't know how deep the water in Jiangsu and Zhejiang is, not to mention the four princes, it is her father, who spent so much thought, but failed to get a piece of the pie from Jiangnan.
Thinking about it this way, how can these four princes look like a waste?
Didn't she die in vain!
No, she can't make such a big deal?
Wait until the fourth prince becomes a vassal?
Maybe it's just one or two years in between?
The emperor can't always let his sons not get married, and he will never establish a prince, right?
Didn't Dr. Feng say that the emperor has a heart palpitation, which is a disease of wealth and nobility, and he can't get angry at all.
Wang Xi thought about it and didn't think of a good way.
Without this ability, we will not do it. Otherwise, I am tired half to death, others still don't appreciate it, and things have to be messed up, isn't this asking for hardship?
She decided to write a letter to the big shopkeeper at dawn tomorrow, telling his eldest brother that the fourth prince owed her a favor, and asking his eldest brother to think about what to do?
The sky is falling, isn't there a ready-made tall top?
Wang Xi was completely distressed all of a sudden, and was finally able to sleep peacefully.
