Chapter 750: Marriage
Xu Qing waited for four days and received a reply from Xu Yan, but such a reply made Xu Qing himself stunned.
Gao Ziyue couldn't help but be a little surprised when she saw the shock on her face, and hurriedly snatched the letter and looked at it herself.
The content of the letter is very short, which probably means that Xu Yan agrees to this marriage.
The corners of Gao Ziyue's mouth twitched, and then she was relieved, for Xu Yan, career is more important.
"How could he agree?"
Xu Qing walked around the room a few times, her face was dazed, she had lost a lot of weight in the past few days, and she looked a lot haggard, and she had been thinking about helping her younger brother ask for a way to get married.
However, the result she finally waited for turned out to be like this, it was like trying to lift a boulder with all her might.
However, when she reached out to lift it, she found that the stone was as light as a feather, and her whole body was carried by the stone and fell.
"It's better to write him another letter, maybe he was forced by your father."
Gao Ziyue sighed lightly and said helplessly.
Xu Qing shook his head, and there was a sense of powerlessness in his eyes: "No need, I understand him, this is his own choice." ”
Gao Ziyue saw her burst into tears, and she didn't know what to say, so she sighed for a while.
"Why don't we go to the East Side Hall and sit for a while."
She knew that she would definitely not be able to persuade Xu Qing, so she simply asked Murong Hui to persuade her.
Xu Qing shook her head, only said that she wanted to stay by herself for a while, and then turned to leave.
Gao Ziyue stood at the door of her room for a while, seeing that she never had the intention of coming out, she had to let the maid wait outside, and if she heard any movement in the room, she would notify her at any time.
She went to the East Wing Hall and personally invited Murong Hui to come over, and she also brought the letter with her by the way.
Murong Hui was busy preparing gifts for Murong An and Murong Ning in the New Year, and she embroidered two fan pendants by herself.
Seeing Gao Ziyue hurriedly walking in, she knew what was going on.
Murong Hui took the letter and glanced at it, then nodded and said, "In this case, let's not worry about it, it's his own choice whether it's good or not, just like Sister Ning said, it's not really bad." ”
Gao Ziyue sighed, leaned on the table and said helplessly: "But Sister Xu is not happy, she locked herself in the room, not eating or drinking, it is really sad to watch." ”
Murong Hui glanced at this guy helplessly, and knew that she was coming over and asked her to persuade Xu Qing.
"Don't bother her, she will figure it out on her own, and the more others persuade her, the more chaotic it becomes."
Murong Hui glanced at her helplessly, and she didn't know what kind of marriage this guy would encounter.
"You should hurry up and prepare for your brother's business, Xu Qing can't help you, whether this matter can be promoted depends on yourself."
She touched Gao Ziyue's hair, and there was a bit of worry in her eyes.
Gao Ziyue nodded, ate a plate of dim sum, and felt that it was not enough to eat, so she asked Mama Zhang to bring a plate of dim sum.
"I thought Miss Gao would be sad, but I didn't expect to be able to eat it."
Mama Zhang watched her finish two plates of dim sum and couldn't help but be surprised.
"I call it turning grief and anger into appetite."
Gao Ziyue took a big sip of tea, and after she was full, she regretted: "Today's dim sum is particularly delicious, but it's a pity that Sister Xu has no appetite." ”
"Let's go back to accompany her earlier, I can't say that she has already figured it out by now."
Murong Hui only felt a little depressed in her heart, so she didn't want to get involved in this matter, so she had to let Gao Ziyue accompany Xu Qing more.
Gao Ziyue nodded, took another plate of dim sum and went back, saying that it was for Xu Qing to eat.
The next morning, when she was in class, Murong Hui saw Xu Qing, who was pale, and her condition seemed to be much better than before.
"Want to open it?"
Murong Hui didn't know what to comfort her, so she asked tentatively.
"I think about it, what Princess Huaqing said is right, since he has chosen a career, then I will support him."
Xu Qing nodded, there was a bit of determination in her eyes, Murong Hui couldn't help but be stunned, she didn't understand what Xu Qing meant.
However, before she could ask in detail, Xu Qing had already walked away, and she glanced at Gao Ziyue, who was also confused, and hurriedly followed.
The days that followed were very peaceful, and the calmness made Murong Hui frightened, always feeling as if something was going to happen.
Murong Hui originally wanted to talk to Xu Qing and Gao Ziyue before the holiday, but after the year-end exam, Xu Qing said that she was sick and no longer participated in any banquets, so Murong Hui never had a chance to see her again.
There were too many socials during the Chinese New Year, and Murong Hui was tired of coping with them, so she slowly lost the energy to care about these anymore.
She also gave New Year's gifts to Xu Qing and Gao Ziyue, and dragged Gao Ziyue to visit Xu Qing.
It's just that Gao Ziyue didn't see Xu Qing, and the gift was only handed over to the housekeeper.
She originally thought that Xu Qing had been abused and wanted to forcibly break into the back house of the Xu family, but was stopped by Xu Qing's personal maid.
"Your Highness, you don't know, Sister Xu is mysterious, and I don't know what to do at home."
When Gao Ziyue entered the palace in March of the following year, she couldn't help but complain to Murong Hui.
"Probably because of her brother's marriage, it will be fine in a few days."
Xu Qing and Xu Yan have a deep relationship, and it is normal for them to be awkward in their hearts.
She thought it would be fine after a while, but she didn't know that they had guessed wrong.
Gao Ziyue nodded, and also felt that what Murong Hui said made sense, so she didn't think much about it, and went back to Ningcui Palace to pack her things.
As soon as she left, the grandmother of Fengyi Palace rushed over and saluted Murong Hui and said, "Your Highness, the queen mother, please come over." ”
In the past, before attending banquets, Lin Yingxue would always send a grandmother to invite her.
Therefore, she didn't care, changed into a lilac embroidered hibiscus Liuxian dress, put on a white fox fur cloak, and rushed to Fengyi Palace with Qingyue.
As soon as he walked into Fengyi Palace, he saw that the palace was full of Mrs. Decree and the noble daughters of the family.
Murong Hui couldn't help but be stunned when she saw this, and hurriedly asked, "Auntie, what are you looking for me?" ”
"Xu Qing has already made a marriage, so I can't go into the palace to accompany you anymore, I will invite everyone here today and find a companion for you to read."
Putting down the tea in her hand, Lin Yingxue's face was calm, this matter was a little sudden, but in the end, it was understandable, Xu Qing was also fifteen.
Murong Hui couldn't help but be stunned, she hurriedly asked, "Why don't I know about this?" Which one did she order? ”
"Tang Ke, the eldest son of the second house of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, Tang Ke is a young man who gives the public, and this family business is not bad."
Lin Yingxue obviously also noticed Murong Hui's surprise, she thought that with the relationship between the three sisters, Murong Hui would know about it in advance.
However, Murong Hui didn't know, Lin Yingxue didn't know what was going on, and she didn't bother to think about it, so she pulled Murong Hui aside and introduced these noble girls.
What kind of person is Murong Hui, all the official ladies in Beijing have heard of it.
The most evaluation of her is that she is righteous, rich, and mild-mannered.
Therefore, she chose to study with her partner this time, not as embarrassed as last time, but many people want to be competent.
Among them, Murong Hui is naturally familiar with it, but her mood is quite complicated now, and she doesn't have the heart to choose a companion to read, so she turned her head to look at Lin Yingxue.
"Auntie, you can help Hui'er choose, so that Hui'er won't offend anyone."
"You little clever ghost!"
Lin Yingxue was amused by her, a child who was obviously very broken, but still pretended to be calm.
"Tan Yanran, you stay."
Shaking her hand, Lin Yingxue said lightly.
Mama Huang didn't come to talk to her before, Gao Ziyue and Xu Qing were not dignified and steady enough, and it was easy to bring the princess badly.
Therefore, this time she chose Tan Yanran, this noble girl has gained a virtuous name at such a young age, and her talent and morality are also top-notch among the nobles.
Murong Hui nodded, still fighting his spirits and said, "In the future, you will live in Ningcui Palace, be with Gao Ziyue as your companion, just tell me what you want." ”
Tan Yanran hurriedly saluted and thanked Murong Hui.
Her etiquette is much higher than that of Gao Ziyue and Xu Qing, but Murong Hui doesn't feel anything when she looks at it.
She nodded, and then turned to look at Lin Yingxue with an expression that I wanted to go back.
"Let's go back and play, it's really childish."
Lin Yingxue was stared at by her, couldn't help but smile, and allowed her to leave.
"Hui'er retired."
Murong Hui hurriedly got up and saluted, and hurriedly left Fengyi Palace.
She had barely walked out when she heard a shout behind her.
When she turned her head, she saw Tan Yanran chasing after her, she was wearing this grass-green wide-sleeved skirt, and she looked very dignified.
"What else?"
Murong Hui was in a hurry to find Gao Ziyue, and when she saw that she was chasing after her, she didn't even have a politeness, so she asked bluntly.
Tan Yanran's grandmother immediately frowned, obviously thinking that Murong Hui was too cold.
Mama Huang snorted coldly, and said in her heart, Her Royal Highness is a princess, why should she be polite to a princess?
"If Your Highness wants to know more about Miss Xu's family affairs, I do know a little, my aunt has an old relationship with the Marquis of Dingyuan."
Tan Yanran was very smart, so she could see at a glance why Murong Hui was in a hurry to leave.
"Let's talk as you go, I'll take you to Ningcui Palace for a turn."
Murong Hui nodded, and beckoned her to continue walking forward.
On the way, she learned that Xu Qing asked for this family affair by herself, and the woman's aunt took the initiative to go to the second room of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to propose marriage.
Fortunately, the second room also knew that Xu Qing was Murong Hui's companion, and she had been raised in the palace for two years, and her appearance and talent were good, so she agreed, and now the two families are even half gone.
When the two of them said this, they had already arrived in the Ningcui Palace, Gao Ziyue was sitting in the small living room drinking tea, and when she saw Murong Hui bringing Tan Yanran in, she also had an indifferent expression.
Looking at her appearance, it is not difficult to guess that she must have known about Xu Qing, and she is also uncomfortable in her heart.
"Sister Xu is too unrighteous enough, and she hides the big thing of marrying from us, what does she mean?"
She endured and endured, and eventually broke out.
"You go out of the palace for me tomorrow afternoon to meet Xu Qing, and I still have two red Shu brocades, bring them to her together."
Murong Hui sighed, and finally understood what was going on with Xu Qing's strange expression before.
