Chapter 247: Righteous Sister
Chu Junlan was puzzled, walked over quickly, and saw the old lady coming out with the daughters of the whole family.
"Sister Lan is back," the old lady smiled, "The Jade Princesses from the western part of the Northern Yuan Dynasty are coming to visit our mansion, and you are back just in time, let's greet them together." ”
"Jasper" means "Nuomin" in the Northern Yuan dialect, isn't Princess Jasper Nuomin?
"Yes." Chu Junlan smiled and stood beside Xu. The second sister-in-law and Chu Lingxi both squeezed their eyes at her, obviously looking for a good reason for her to go out privately.
Chu Lingxi took advantage of the old lady to walk out, and leaned beside Chu Junlan and whispered: "We just came back and said that you went to see a doctor for Prince Gongding, don't say it." ”
Chu Junlan went to Gongding's palace on weekdays with the consent of the Xu family, and this reason was also in the past.
"Got it." Chu Junlan pulled Chu Lingxi's hand and replied in a low voice.
Out of the corner of his eye, Xu saw Chu Junlan and Chu Lingxi muttering together, shook his head funny, and didn't go deeper.
The third aunt Ren has a cheerful temperament, and she is the most lively in front of the old lady, so she leaned forward and asked quietly: "Mother, our Dayong's team has just started, and the princess from the western part of the Northern Yuan Dynasty will come to our house, will there be any trouble?" ”
"You're too worried, we're attacking Bolno Khan in the east, this Princess Jasper's relatives were all killed by Borno, and there will be no trouble," the old lady smiled and said quite gossipy, "I heard that the emperor intends to make Princess Jasper a concubine, and the good days are approaching. ”
"So there's such a thing?" The third aunt said in surprise, "I go around the house all day, and I don't even know it." ”
Chu Junlan was shocked, no wonder Bai Yin said before leaving that Nuo Min wanted to stay and marry, she thought that Nuo Min would marry a prince or clansman, but she didn't want to, she was going to marry the emperor!
But if she remembers correctly, the emperor is forty-four years old this year!
Xu and Chu Junlan thought of one thing: "Princess Jade seems to have just reached Xuan this year?" ”
"Yes, the best years, the emperor is in the prime of life, and it is also a good story." The old lady smiled.
Chu Junlan lowered his eyes and was silent, his heart heavy.
Thinking of Nuo Min's pitiful and delicate appearance, she is also a woman, she felt pity when she saw Nuo Min, and the emperor would accept her as a concubine, whether it was politically or emotionally, it seemed to be reasonable.
Although it makes sense, some of Chu Junlan's concepts in modern times are deep-rooted, even if it is normal for old husbands and young wives to be in the Dayong Dynasty, she is still a little uncomfortable in her heart.
Just then, there was the sound of wheels and footsteps around the corner.
Several chamberlains dressed in iron-gray round-necked sunflower shirts and palace guards in red arrow sleeves surrounded a luxurious brocade curtain and vermilion wheel canopy incense cart to meet them.
The ladies of the Chu family stood still and greeted each other respectfully.
The chamberlain brought a footstool and placed it in front of the carriage, and carefully helped a figure in a goose yellow dress.
The old lady hurriedly led the salute: "The courtiers bring the daughters of the Chu family and greet Princess Jasper." ”
The daughters of the whole family saluted together: "Blessed Princess Jasper." ”
"Hurry up, please." Nomin smiled and supported, and her voice was sweet and soft, like gummies wrapped in nectar.
Everyone straightened up, and they all quietly looked at the princess of Beiyuan who was about to enter the palace as a concubine, the old lady and the third aunt felt a little kind when they saw Nuo Min, and when they saw Nuo Min's appearance, everyone was very surprised.
When Xu saw Nuo Min's face clearly, he was shocked, although his face was calm, his heart was already turbulent!
Isn't this the maidservant girl that Chu Junlan brought with him when he entered the mansion!
Thinking back to the time when the maidservant disappeared, and then recalling the time when Chu Hua was impeached for treason, and the gloomy clouds at home at that time, plus Nuo Min and Bai Yin were all suddenly found by Chu Hua to offer, the answer is already coming out! Xu Shi looked back at Chu Junlan with a complicated look in his eyes.
Chu Junlan noticed Xu's eyes and stuck out his tongue at her, and the funny Xu couldn't help but want to laugh, and he liked Chu Junlan more and more in his heart.
"Princess Jasper, please come in." At this time, the old lady had already made a gesture of invitation to the side, and politely led Nuo Min into the door.
The ladies naturally lined up on both sides to see each other off.
Nuo Min smiled and thanked him, staggered half of his body and followed behind the old lady, passing by Chu Junlan before entering the door, but he stopped.
The ladies looked back at each other for some reason.
"Sister." Nuo Min took Chu Junlan's hand, smiled with crooked eyebrows, and said softly, "Long time no see, I miss you so much, are you all right?" ”
Chu Junlan didn't expect that Nuo Min would take the initiative to talk to her, but after thinking about it, she understood that this was Nuo Min's promotion to her, and she was really close to her.
"I'm fine, but I can't go to see you, you are a princess, don't call me a sister, this is tormenting me."
Nuo Min shook his head with a smile, took Chu Junlan's hand to keep up with the old lady's pace, and said in a low voice: "No matter when, you are my sister." Besides, the emperor has already allowed me to recognize Lord Chu as my father-in-law, so that you will be my sister-in-law. ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and in shock they made their way to the front hall.
The old lady asked Nomin to take a seat, but Nomin refused.
"With the emperor's orders, the prince of your mansion is my father-in-law, you are naturally my grandmother, the emperor means that on the day of the concubine, I will be allowed to go out of the cabinet in your mansion, and in the future, the Maoguo Mansion will be my maiden home, where is the granddaughter sitting in the first place, and the grandmother is on the side?"
Things are already clear.
In addition to arranging a "kiss" daughter for Chu Hua and the Xu family, the emperor also arranged a righteous daughter who was about to enter the palace as a concubine.
This is a great grace for the Chu family, and from then on, the Chu family will not only have a daughter to be the princess of the county king, but also have an extra daughter to serve the holy driver in the palace!
Nuo Min and the Chu family are both prosperous and lossy, support each other, support each other, and form a win-win situation, and the affinity between the Chu family and the royal family has deepened again, which is a good thing that many people can't look forward to!
It can be seen that the emperor trusts and relies on Chu Hua!
The old lady was in a complicated mood, and she had another granddaughter in plain form, or a granddaughter from such a noble background, which was simply a pie-in-the-sky thing.
But this pie has repeatedly fallen in the Maoguo Mansion, and I don't know if it's luck or a hidden crisis.
Everyone agreed, and when Chu Hua returned to the house, Nuo Min officially saluted Chu Hua and Xu, and officially became the righteous daughter of the two of them, the righteous sister of Chu Yuan, Chu Zhan and Chu Junlan.
That night, the emperor ordered his attendants to inform him of the good day of Qintian's election. The family received the order, and it was naturally a busy time.
When the waiter left, Xu said with a smile: "Concubine Feng is on the eighteenth of this month, if the princess doesn't dislike it, she will live in the mansion, and I will order someone to clean up the courtyard." ”
"My stepmother doesn't have to bother, I want to live with my sister." Nuo Min took Chu Junlan's hand and didn't let go.
