Chapter Eighty-Five: Play
It's said to be a trip, but it's just a trip around Changyan Country. The rules in the palace are too cumbersome, and Shen Anrong doesn't like it, so she finds a reason to go out and play. I often come back once in March or May, or sometimes only once every six months. The specific date depends on Shen Anrong's mood.
A few days ago, Xiao Zhiyan heard that Shen Anrong would not come back for a while. Unexpectedly, this time he came back without warning, which surprised Xiao Zhiyan. That's why I asked Shen Anrong very nervously, for fear that something would happen to Shen Anrong. Before, the Queen Mother was still shouting and bored, but now that Shen Anrong is back, someone has to talk to the Queen Mother. I just don't know, Shen Anrong can't leave yet.
"Sister-in-law, I don't want to come back! But I heard on the road that the imperial brother had decreed that the imperial brother had given him a marriage, and I naturally wanted to come back to celebrate such a good thing. On the way, I was still wondering why you didn't inform me, but I didn't understand until I got to Youjing. What is going on with the imperial brother, how did he give the Wen family's marriage to the imperial brother? He knew that the emperor's brother liked it······ still insists on this, and is not afraid of ruining the brotherhood between the emperor and his brotherhood. This time I came back a little suddenly, but I should have come back. I've seen all the great rivers and mountains in Changyan, but there's really nothing to see. And I'm also at the age of getting married, and I don't know who the royal brother will marry me if I don't come back! It's better for me to come back and watch by myself, so that I won't be able to get out of the marriage if I don't like it. "Shen Anrong doesn't have the slightest princess in front of Xiao Zhiyan, and talking to Xiao Zhiyan is like an ordinary aunt's sister-in-law.
Lan Xi was also sitting next to Xiao Zhiyan, and Shen Anrong's relationship with Lan Xi in the past was not bad. When I talked about giving marriage before, I also glanced at Lan Xi, obviously feeling sorry for Lan Xi. There are some things that Shen Anrong and they know very well in their hearts, so they don't need to say it so bluntly, so as not to be listened to by someone who cares about it and gossip.
"Your Majesty's thoughts, no one can guess! Even I don't know why His Majesty suddenly gave this holy decree to marry. It's just that what I know is that the fifth brother made trouble outside the Qinzheng Palace, and then he was called in by His Majesty and didn't know what he said. The queen mother also knew about this and hurriedly returned from Hanshan Temple. It's just that when I went to ask for peace just now, the queen mother didn't mention a word, and I don't know why. I was at a loss, so I could only follow the instructions and do whatever I was told. Xiao Zhiyan shook her head and told Shen Anrong that she didn't know why Shen Zhiye was like this.
In this way, the princess could not leave at will. lest His Majesty be interested in it that day, and give the princess a marriage. At that time, if the princess is not in Youjing, she can only obey orders. When the princess returned, it was all a sure thing. But if the princess is in Youjing, the courtiers may be able to stop one or two and fight for their own marriage! Lan Xi heard Shen Anrong say this, and also knew that Shen Anrong was afraid of being given marriage.
chuckled and teased Shen Anrong, and explained that Shen Anrong should stay in Youjing and not run around.
"Lan Xi, do you still have time to laugh at me? What can you do about this, you can't really watch the marriage of the fifth brother and the Wen family, and make you the laughing stock of the entire Youjing, right? Shen Anrong saw Lan Xixiao's happiness, she didn't understand very much, she didn't understand what Lan Xixiao was doing so happily. As if Lan Xi was an outsider throughout this matter.
"What the princess said, if the courtiers don't laugh, what can they do, can't they cry and run to the beam to hang themselves? At this point, what can the courtiers do can only obey the holy will. Besides, His Royal Highness the King and the eldest lady of the Wen family didn't say anything, wouldn't it be abrupt if the courtiers stood up? The Queen Mother didn't mention this matter, and she thought that the eldest lady of the Wen family was the daughter-in-law of the royal family, so what could the courtier do if she didn't want to? If you say it, it will only make people laugh at the delusion of the courtiers. The face of the Lan family is completely tied to the body of the courtier, and the courtiers can't bury the entire Lan family for their own selfishness. Lan Xi saw that Shen Anrong was very calm when she talked about her head.
I thought about it before, otherwise I wouldn't have said it so smoothly.
Lan Xi has now completely figured it out, whatever. Whether you marry Shen Yang Xi or not is the same for a lifetime, you can't just want the Lan family to be full for Shen Yangxi, right? Lan Xi is the only heir of the Lan family, so naturally he has to put the Lan family first, and the face of the Lan family and the prosperity of the Lan family are the most important.
"Well, it doesn't make sense to you. You were just taught by Mrs. Lan Shangshu and Mrs. Shangshu to be too old-fashioned, and you don't know what belongs to you to fight for it. It makes me and my sister-in-law anxious here, as if this matter is not your business. But what you said is also true, I should stay in Youjing and watch it in the future, lest the imperial brother point me to a family I don't like, and it will be too late to come back. If I had been there at the time of the marriage, I would have saved a lot of trouble. However, you don't care about your marriage at all? Shen Anrong still agreed with some of Lan Xi's words, and she didn't want to become a pawn for Shen Zhiye to win over the courtiers in the end.
Although this possibility is very small, as long as there is the slightest possibility, Shen Anrong does not want it to have. For the sake of insurance, it is better to live in peace of mind in Youjing. Anyway, the princess's mansion outside the city has been built, and whether Shen Anrong wants to live in the palace or the princess's mansion, it all depends on her temperament. And the Queen Mother also wants Shen Anrong to accompany her more, and Shen Anrong has also seen it everywhere in Changyan, it's time to get married with peace of mind.
The main thing for Shen Anrong to come back is not for her own affairs, but for Lan Xi and Shen Yangxi. Lan Xi and Shen Yangxi, Shen Anrong is also very optimistic. used to always urge Shen Yangxi to ask him when he would get married, and notified Shen Anrong in advance, so that Shen Anrong could come back early to prepare congratulatory gifts.
Now that Shen Yangxi is getting married, the bride is not Lan Xi, which makes Shen Anrong unacceptable. What a pair she is optimistic about, there was a promise from the emperor before, Shen Anrong must not let these two people who like each other be separated. Only then did he hurriedly come back, wanting to think of countermeasures with Xiao Zhiyan and see how to persuade Shen Zhiye to let Shen Zhiye take back the holy decree.
However, before doing these things, Shen Anrong still has to ask the parties what they mean. In case Lan Xi is unwilling to marry into the royal family······
