Chapter 34
Ling Xiao's side was very deserted, and only Eighteen Niang followed.
She didn't care about the cold reception at all, but she didn't think about who to cling to.
It's not particularly eye-catching to stand there, after all, there is an eye-catching eighteen mothers here.
But others will also be able to see her, and although they don't plan to make friends, many people will.
Most of the people who can participate in this contemporaneous ceremony are upper-class elites, and they can see the character and bones of Ling Xiao.
Some people feel that Ling Xiao doesn't care about the scrutiny of others, nor does he care about the cold reception of others, and he is psychologically strong.
After watching it, there are smart people who plan to tell their own people that they can not befriend Ling Xiao, but don't step on Ling Xiao, she is the one who knows what she wants.
There are also people who are not too smart and think about how such a poor and sour person is here? If you didn't think that this place was not your own home, you would have to drive Ling Xiao out.
Ling Xiao completely ignored those cold and bored eyes, she was not afraid of any of the magnates of this world at all, not even the emperor, afraid of these female dependents?
She is looking at the process of Twelve Niang and Lu Li, so close to watch the genuine and Lu Li, or more happy, this is a long insight, and even she did a little secretly shooting work, this is a more precious historical material, maybe I will have the opportunity as a memory in the future.
In the whole process, I watched Twelve Niang complete a series of actions: the first plus, one worship, two plus, two worship, three plus, three worship, and take the word, which means that the Twelve Niang has changed from a child to a real adult who has entered the society, that is to say, the Twelve Niang can be married.
In the middle, the twelve mothers changed into a total of three different clothes, the last one was a large-sleeved dress, wearing a hairpin crown on her head, slim and elegant, so that Mrs. Hou was very happy after seeing it.
Ling Xiao was amazed, you must know that the clothes of Twelve Niang are very gorgeous, and the jewelry she wears is also very delicate and beautiful.
There is no trip in vain, it is quite good to see such an authentic and etiquette, especially this kind of etiquette in a powerful family, it is a rare opportunity.
After this close contact, Ling Xiao could see that Twelve Niang was very interested in the original owner and wanted to get close to Ling Xiao, the daughter of a down-and-out family.
But because she belongs to the noble daughter of a powerful family, she is naturally very busy, and the ancient ladies are not just eating and drinking.
A large part of the noble ladies are going to study, of course, there are no mathematics, physics and chemistry, mainly liberal arts and some other skills.
There are not a lot of things they need to learn, such as learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, as well as other skills such as female red housekeepers.
It takes a lot of time to master the skills you need, and many of them have to be practiced every day.
It can be seen that Twelve Niang has undergone strict upbringing, and every step she takes in the ceremony is very standard.
Even the smile and the lips curled up by the same amount, which she needed special training.
In the future, she will marry into the right family and become a housewife with exquisite faces.
In this form, the people of the Hou Mansion will not let Twelve Niang and Ling Xiao have more contact.
Because it is too cost-effective, the Hou Mansion and the Tao family do not have much contact.
Now the Tao family is basically finished, and it will not be completely restored in a few decades.
The person who is optimistic about Twelve Niang is not only the one who lost his father and mother and eldest daughter, but also his face was damaged.
This situation completely cut off any possibility of marrying into a wealthy family, and no one even wanted to be a concubine.
To break the sky is to marry a poor child, just a poor child, I don't know if I can rise?
Even if she can come out, I'm afraid it will be more than 20 years later, and the people in the Hou Mansion at that time are still very good.
No matter how you look at it, Twelve Niang doesn't need to be too good to the Tao family's daughter, because the Tao family's future is uncertain, but the daughter is interested.
Mrs. Hou decided that she would not openly prohibit her daughter from contacting the Tao family's daughter, as long as she kept Twelve Niang busy, she would not take care of the Tao family's daughter.
Anyway, the daughter of the Tao family should be grateful to her daughter for letting the broken family participate in her own ceremony, which is a great kindness to the daughter of the Tao family.
Ling Xiao naturally saw that Twelve Niang didn't want to tell her the truth, so she didn't think about asking, on the one hand, there was no opportunity, Twelve Niang was very busy.
And the two of them confronted each other over this issue, Ling Xiao is definitely a white-eyed wolf in the eyes of others, so she doesn't bother to think about Twelve Niang's true thoughts now.
What is the reason why Twelve Niang has been paying attention to herself, if she can know, she will know it, and if she can't know, it won't get in the way, anyway, she won't deal with Twelve Niang for the time being.
It's normal for her to have her thoughts, and it's normal for everyone to want to live well, as long as they don't count it on themselves, but if Ling Xiao is dragged in, Ling Xiao will fight back.
After the ceremony, everyone went to see Mrs. Hou and the ladies of the Hou Mansion, and Ling Xiao's appearance surprised people who didn't know her identity, because she had a very good bearing.
Wearing a mask, she attracted a lot of attention at the ceremony, and some people thought that the injury on her face should not be very serious, otherwise how dare she come out as a guest.
Most of the women with damaged faces stayed at home and didn't dare to come out at all, but Ling Xiao kept her body straight, without any frustration or fear.
However, people who think they are cultivated will not directly ask about the damage to Ling Xiao's face, they just ask each other and whisper.
And among the guests, there are some noble ladies who don't know anything, they want to come on a blind date, and there are many girls who appear at the ceremony.
"Come, whose little lady are you?" There was a young lady who kept looking at Ling Xiao and felt that she should be a beauty.
She has always wanted to find a wife for her baby grandson who can calm down, and this time she fell in love with Twelve Niang at the ceremony.
You must know that Twelve Niang is beautiful and has a high status, she belongs to the noble daughter of the Hou Mansion, and the Weiyuan Hou Mansion is a Hou Mansion with real power.
But she suffered several blows because of her grandson's marriage, but she still had a little brains and knew that it would not succeed.
In her eyes, her grandson is really good, and not long ago she couldn't wait to find a princess to marry her grandson.
You must know that her daughter is the queen, and the Chengen Mansion is a royal relative.
She ran to the palace and told her daughter that it would be better for the princess.
It's a pity that the current queen, her daughter scolded her mother after knowing about it, and directly said that it was impossible.
You must know that the emperor has many sons, but there is only one princess in the palace, Princess Chang'an, who has just become an adult.
After having more sons, the emperor is not so rare as a prince, but he likes princesses more who will not threaten his throne.
gave the princess the title early, and also gave a very rich fief, and the princess is also very smart and very good at pleasing the emperor.
Compared with Princess Chang'an, another Princess Yun, who was much older, was not very likable at all, and was driven directly to the fief by the emperor.
Princess Chang'an became the emperor's favorite child, she seemed very ordinary, not too arrogant, but more decent.
The emperor has long told the queen that the standard of a horse is to be handsome, preferably a handsome guy of Pan An and Pan Zidu's level, and to have cultural literacy, that is to say, to be educated.
In addition to these two standards, people are also required to be polite, whew! After marrying the princess, you must not take a concubine, and there is another requirement, because the princess likes to play the piano, so the concubine must be able to play the piano.
After the queen said the relevant conditions, she snorted and said, "Which one can Jiulang achieve?" Still want to marry a princess? Don't look at yourself to see if you have that qualification? ”
She was really angry this time, as a party who knew that she was not the emperor's concubine, and she had never given birth, it was really difficult to live in the palace.
In many cases, she must forget that she is also a woman, needs the care of others, suppresses all feelings, and does everything that is not in line with the emperor.
As soon as the emperor told her the criteria for horses, the mother ran to the palace, and when she heard her thoughts, the queen almost exploded.
Over the years, she has been thinking about brushing up her favor with the princess in front of the emperor, but her mother actually hit the princess with the idea.
But do you really dare to think about it, and don't look at what Jiuro is? What can a gentleman marry a princess?
If it were her, she wouldn't be happy, not to mention that the emperor wouldn't agree at all, would it be easy for her to live?
The old lady of the Duke was frightened by the empress's outburst, and she knelt on the ground.
The queen didn't know her much when she saw her mother, was this her own mother?
She doesn't ask her mother to be able to help her, but don't pull back.
In a tantrum, she looked at the kneeling person, and she didn't intend to take care of her mother at all.
They belong to the biological mother-daughter relationship, and the queen will not be difficult for her mother in many cases.
Even if the mother makes the queen angry, it will soon make the mother up, she is always her daughter.
But now the queen's seizure has made her mother understand one thing: as the queen of a country, her mother and mother are not ordinary mothers and daughters.
When the two of them get along, there is an entanglement, it should be Mrs. Guo's concession, in addition to being a mother and daughter, they are also the relationship between the king and the minister.
Even if Mrs. Guo is the queen's mother, she has to kneel down to worship the queen. Today, the queen seems to be a different person, and plans to let her mother remember the difference between the monarch and the minister.
didn't immediately let the old Duchess get up, and then said: "Since Mrs. Guo thinks that Jiulang is suitable for the princess, then you can tell me, which condition can he reach now?" ”
The queen looked at Mrs. Guo, but found that her mother still didn't find the problem, which made her feel that she was too indulgent to her mother before, once the emperor wanted to complete the mansion, the princess would be finished with this kind of housewife.
Mrs. Guo was naturally not convinced, in her eyes, her grandson was good, not to mention the royal princess, even the fairy in the sky, she had the heart to argue: "......"
But the queen didn't wait for her to speak, so she opened her mouth first and asked, "Is Jiulang beautiful?" "There is no doubt about this at all, Jiulang is not beautiful.
Mrs. Guo opened her mouth, the queen's family, including the queen, is not the kind of person who is beautiful, and their congenital conditions restrict them, they are not beauties.
The reason why the queen was chosen was because she belonged to the original family and had a good foundation, and later she was selected by the emperor to become the crown princess because of her relatively famous morality.
There are no handsome and beautiful genes in the Cheng'en Mansion at all, but it has been improved for several generations, and finally it is the appearance of the middle and upper ranks.
"Look, my mother also knows that Jiulang's appearance is not handsome at all, and his appearance cannot meet His Majesty's requirements."
"For another request, what is Jiulang's ability? As far as I know, Jiurou hasn't even been able to show off his talent until now. ”
Speaking of this, the queen was angry in her heart, and when her grandfather was still there, she could make the people in the mansion straighten up and walk out.
After the death of my grandfather, all the people in the house did not have much money, and they were all a group of wine bags and rice bags.
There is only the title of Duke Chengen, but what is the use of the title? It's a gift.
The queen couldn't think about it in her early years, and she wanted her mother's family to cheer up again.
But so far, this is not bad, at least it won't cause a big incident.
The only problem is that the mother swells up without the suppression of her elders.
In the queen's opinion, this is definitely a curse or a blessing, and she still wants Jiulang to marry Princess Chang'an?
I don't look in the mirror to see what I'm capable of, and the queen is very angry when she thinks of this.
She had a dream one night, and when she woke up, she figured out a lot of things at once, and she realized that she was lucky.
First of all, she doesn't have a son, so there is no team problem in the Cheng'en Mansion, anyway, she is her mother-in-law, and she will always be the queen mother.
There is a good saying: If you have no desire, you are strong, and after thinking clearly, the queen plans to ventilate with the people in the public mansion, but the mother arrives for Jiulang.
And the queen was not very comfortable after seeing her mother-in-law, she had talked to Mrs. Guo after she never gave birth to a child.
Instead, Mrs. Guo complained, saying that the queen herself had no ability to be a woman and couldn't catch her husband's heart. is also ready to let the queen send a beauty to the emperor and give birth to a child in the womb.
made the queen so angry, she was the worst person in the purple palace, although some people said that you don't need to look at the posture of a woman, but look at that heart.
But the emperor can't be such a man, you must know that there are more beauties in this palace, and the emperor needs to review and review the folds every day, so he naturally thinks about how to be happy, then he won't go deep into it at all, and look at the appearance.
And the beautiful queen and the beautiful concubine are naturally more pleasing to the eye by beautiful people. The queen also once asked herself that if she was with ordinary people, she would indeed prefer to be in the same place as beautiful. The queen complains a little about her mother-in-law, why doesn't she give birth to a more beautiful one?
In fact, the emperor came to the queen to spend the night, generally pure rest, as the queen of a country, it is impossible to rush to want more communication with the emperor, resulting in her no chance of pregnancy, without the emperor's cooperation, she naturally can't conceive a child, what good way does she have herself?
And the only thing she can show is that she has a good character, naturally she usually holds it, which makes the emperor even more respectful, if he didn't need to take a break alone later, he basically wouldn't come to the queen to take a rest.
The queen saw the reality clearly, knew that it was impossible to give birth to a child, and did not want to adopt the prince, she noticed the chaos, and she did not tell anyone after she knew.
Especially the emperor will never say it, she has already seen that the emperor has a more fucked up trait: he is generally crazy about love, and he will be put to death if he hates it.
