Chapter 2 Wedding Cards

"It's too much of a deception." With a bang, in the lobby of the Hou Mansion, Xiao Yun was furious, slapped his palm on the table beside him, and smashed a fine porcelain teacup on the table, splashing the tea. And a graceful woman sitting beside him looked at him worriedly, took out a handkerchief, and carefully wiped his hands. The woman is his wife, she is the daughter of the imperial master, and she is a model of the daughter of the family, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, as if she has the weakness of a Jiangnan woman, but her eyes are also full of a kind of tenacity unique to Jiangmen.

"Xianggong, don't be angry with these people." She said cautiously, and she glanced at a red wedding card on the table, especially the big red wedding letter. It seemed to be particularly dazzling in her eyes, because the reason why Xiao Yun was angry came from this wedding card. Generally, you won't be angry when you receive a wedding post, at least you have to bless others, but Xiao Yun is so angry for a reason. The groom is Xiao Yi, the son of King Jing, although King Jing is a prince, of course, he is also a royal clansman, but he is not the same as His Majesty and Xuantianhou Xiao Dingwen, a mother's compatriot, so the saint's trust in him is not as much as Xuantianhou. However, King Jing's position in the court is also very important, and King Jing's son is also a well-known talent in the Eastern Capital. Wen Taowu seems to be able to share the same situation with Xiao Yun, of course, this is not the reason why Xiao Yun is angry, after all, they are related to each other, and they are also excellent and will not be jealous of Xiao Yi, so angry because of the wife Xiao Yi wants to marry, Xiao Yi has already married a wife, it is the daughter of Mrs. Yang, named Yang Ying, I heard that this woman's talent is also good, and Xiao Yun's wife is also known as a talented woman in the Eastern Capital, but her beauty is far inferior to Xiao Yun's wife. And the second wife Xiao Yi married is naturally a woman with amazing beauty, her name is Wang Manhong, she usually wears a red dress and a purple gold and jade crown, and she looks like a princess everywhere she goes. It's a pity that she is a talentless and virtuous woman, and her temper is still extremely unruly, and she is a well-known eldest lady in the Eastern Capital, if it weren't for her demonic face, no one would want to mention such a person.

"It's just a left-handed imperial history, and he really thinks that he is a green onion, and his daughter is a vase, and he still regards Wang Manhong as a treasure and wants to climb up to Xiao Yi? Hmph, I really thought that Xiao Yat would be a person who was easily eroded by beauty, and he thought too simply. The corners of Xiao Yun's mouth are full of disdain and disgust for this Zuodu Yushi, Wang Manhong is naturally the daughter of the Zuodu Yushi, obviously this Zuodu Yushi has offended Xiao Yun. Although Xiao Yun has never been an official in the court, the things that the imperial court institutions cannot come forward are all things that the emperor personally assigned Xiao Yun to do, so Xiao Yun's weight in the heart of the saint is not lighter than that of his father-in-law. Of course, Zuodu Yushi knows that offending the Hou Mansion will definitely be sad, but he has already climbed the palace, no matter how powerful the Hou Mansion is, after all, it is not as powerful as the palace, there are very few people in the world who know the relationship between Xiao Yun and the royal family, Xiao Yi knows it, but the people of the royal family are always secretive about this matter, after all, Xiao Dingwen faked his death, and the royal family has already set up a spiritual position for him, so he has never announced his identity to the world, of course, this is not what the emperor meant, Because the emperor was eager to give Xiao Dingwen a throne, this is what Xiao Dingwen meant, back then, for this matter, the two brothers quarreled for a few days and nights, and even ignored each other for a while, and finally naturally compromised with the saint, after all, Xiao Dingwen is his own brother, his only younger brother in the royal family.

"This Jingwang Mansion sent the wedding card here, I'm afraid it was also Xiao Yi's idea." Xiao Yun's wife is delicate, and she knows that this matter must not be simple. Xiao Yi is second only to Xiao Yun in the Eastern Capital, and now that he is married to Wang Manhong, he wants to be proud in front of Xiao Yun. Although Xiao Yi usually has nothing abnormal about Xiao Yun, it seems that he must be dissatisfied with Xiao Yun pressing on his head on weekdays.

"You're saying that Xiao Yat did it on purpose?" Xiao Yundao.

"Xiao Yi is in the Eastern Capital, known as the Splendid Prince, when he is said to be the first son of the Eastern Capital, he does not think of him, but you, and the jealousy of you in his heart is increasing day by day, and he thinks that His Majesty values you, so that you become the first son of the Eastern Capital. He consciously is not under you, as long as there is a place for you on weekdays, he always deliberately competes with you, always draws, and the concubine knows that it is caused by the concession of the Xianggong, otherwise with his Xiao Yi's ability, he is not the opponent of the Xianggong. But Xiao Yi won't think so, he thinks that you are just as good, why is this first son you not him? Yan Wan's analysis is extremely thorough, Xiao Yun usually doesn't pay attention to it so much, and if he thinks about it carefully, he always feels that Xiao Yi is secretly competing with him. Today, there is some truth in Yan Wan's words, this man's jealousy is not less than that of a woman, but Xiao Yun never felt that he was the first son of the Eastern Capital, because he never regarded himself as a self-conscious.

"The name of a splendid son, it makes him value it so much, among the Eastern Capital, who wants to have such a reputation, King Jing Hero I, how can there be such a son?" Xiao Yun frowned and said.

"Back then, the princes went to Shenyun Palace for further study, and His Majesty also sent you over, but he was the only one who was left behind, saying that your talent was above him. Surely he was already jealous at that time. Yan Wan said plainly, people's hearts are always the most unpredictable thing, if a person hates someone, even if it is just some small things, it is not a trivial matter in their eyes.

"Going to Shenyun Palace is the dictatorship of His Majesty's Sacred Heart, only the prince is qualified to go to Shenyun Palace in the past dynasties, I have already broken the rules to go, I also mentioned it to the imperial uncle, how can the imperial uncle feel that he owes his father too much. After all, for the sake of this throne, their brothers have never met a few times, and my father has never returned to northern Xinjiang, so he made an exception for me to go with the princes. You must know that sending me to the imperial uncle has been under a lot of pressure, and add him to one, those officials are afraid that the imperial uncle will not be at peace, and the imperial uncle said that his talent is not as good as mine is just an excuse, and he can't even see the situation clearly, he is really a royal person in vain. Xiao Yun said to him with some disappointment.

"Little Hou Ye, Dali Siqing sent someone to spread the word, what should I do with the one Su Yu who is locked up in prison?" Suddenly, a subordinate hurriedly walked into the lobby and mentioned Su Yu's name, Yan Wan and Xiao Yun were stunned. Then Yan Wan's expression showed a look of embarrassment, because the anger in Xiao Yun's eyes was even stronger in the next moment.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yun's voice was very low, as if suppressing a volcanic anger that was about to erupt. If someone mentions others, he may be able to bear it, but when it comes to Xiao Lan, Xiao Yun will definitely not bear it. This Su Yunai is the son of a six-grade official of the Ministry of Industry, who is amorous and lustful by nature, and has already married eight wives and concubines in the family, but he died and came to the Hou Mansion to say that he wanted to marry Xiao Lan as the ninth room. If it weren't for Yan Wan holding him back, that Su Yu would have been slashed by Xiao Yun with a sword by now.

"I heard that Lord Wang invited King Jing's Mansion to come forward, and the manager has already gone to Dali Temple to protect people, as long as we are angry, he will release people." The subordinate said a little reluctantly, extremely cautious, for fear that Xiao Yun would vent his anger on himself, although Xiao Yun would not do this. But he is still afraid in his heart, because Xiao Lan is the reverse scale in the Hou Mansion, no matter who can provoke Xiao Lan, although it is the Hou Family, there is no rich family grudge here, and the dispute between the concubines and concubines, because Xiao Dingwen only married one wife, but after giving birth to Xiao Bai, he died of illness, and he has never married again, and the requirement for Xiao Yun is to marry only one wife, as the son of the Hou Mansion, even if he has only one wife, he can take a concubine, but Xiao Yun has never accepted a concubine. may have identified Xiao Dingwen's principle of monogamy, but in this world, this principle is undoubtedly the most unwise choice. As long as it is a wealthy family, there will be these grievances, but the Xuantian Houfu is the purest Hou Mansion, and there are only two sons in the entire Hou Mansion, and there is also a county lord, so naturally it can't make trouble.

"If I'm not mistaken, this Su Yu seems to be Wang Manhong's brother-in-law, right?" Xiao Yun asked in a low voice.

"Seems like so." The subordinate hesitated for a moment, looked at Yan Wan with some embarrassment, and still said it.

"Bastard, this Wang Manhong really thinks that he has climbed the palace, so he can despise the Hou Mansion so much, and tell Dali Siqing to cut off this guy's head for me and send it in a box." Xiao Yun roared angrily.

"Xianggong, how unlucky it is to take a dead man's head in the house if you kill someone." Yan Wan hurriedly persuaded him.

"I don't care if I'm unlucky now, and when she gets married, I'll use Su Yu's head as a congratulatory gift." Xiao Yun said coldly, he had already made up his mind, since there was no one to persuade him, not even to be gentle, Xiao Yun was also an extremely stubborn person. This is somewhat similar to Xiao Bai, but Xiao Yun is not Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai only said some unrealistic words, no one cares whether his words are true or not, and it is not beneficial to others. But Xiao Yun's words, no matter what he says, others will not despise him, because he is a person who does what he says.

"Got it." The subordinate hurriedly ran out as if he had been amnestied, he knew that it was impossible for that Su Yu to survive. His head will naturally be given to the palace by Xiao Yun as a congratulatory gift, although this is a very offensive thing for others, even if it will offend King Jing because of this, but he doesn't care, because he has never put Xiao Yi in his eyes from beginning to end, and the only one who can make Xiao Yun cautious is this King Jing.

"What? You said Xiao Yun wanted to kill Su Yu? "In the Wang Mansion, the old man with gray eyebrows and white beard looks like a sleek person who has lived in officialdom for a long time, and the kind of officialdom on his body can be seen at a glance. And sitting beside him was a beautiful and extraordinary graceful woman, wearing a golden hairpin, dressed in silk, satin and brocade, all of which were of the highest quality, and this dress was by no means something ordinary people could afford. And the old man is Wang Yuan, the emperor of Zuodu, and the woman who sat next to him was his eldest daughter Wang Manzi, that is, the wife of Su Yu, the son of a six-grade petty official of the Ministry of Industry, how could there be such a precious silk satin, obviously stained with the light of the palace today, so he would wear it so luxuriously, for fear that others would not see it.

"Dad, what's going on?" Wang Manzi asked in surprise, but there was no trace of sadness in his eyes, obviously their relationship between husband and wife was also very plain.

"A letter from Dali Temple, Xiao Yun wants to cut off Su Yu's head as a congratulatory gift to the palace." Wang Yuan said with an annoyed face, his white and wrinkled hand grabbed the sandalwood chair tightly, the chair was sprayed with black paint, it seemed to be as transparent as jade, obviously the chair alone was worth a lot.

"So Su Lang is hopeless?" Wang Manzi said a little anxiously, although he has no feelings, but after all, he is Wang Manzi's husband, a woman always has to rely on her husband, no matter how **** Su Yu is, Wang Manzi doesn't want him to die.

"Hmph, who said that, tomorrow I will play a copy of him, I want to see if His Majesty can really tolerate Xiao Yun being so careless about human life, now that we are also relatives of the emperor, Your Majesty will definitely not despise us." Wang Yuan said arrogantly,

"Will Your Majesty really be on our side? After all, he is now the most favored person by His Majesty's side. Wang Manzi said worriedly.

"Hmph, now that the Manhong wedding is approaching, the second prince will personally preside over it, and even the prince of Langya will come to congratulate, how can Your Majesty not pay attention to it." Wang Yuan said with an extremely confident face.

"Langya Gongzi, is he the descendant of the Langya Sword Sect?" A look of surprise appeared in Wang Manzi's eyes, the rivers and lakes and the imperial court are not the same place, they have never had anything to do with each other, most of the masters of the rivers and lakes are countless, and there are many sects in the world, which can be described as a hundred schools of thought, but the rivers and lakes sects that can even change the color of the imperial court are rare. And the Langya Sword Sect is one of them, because the Langya Sword Sect is one of the sword sects in the world, and the door is full of sword disciples, and its fame is not under the Shenyun Palace at all, you must know that the Shenyun Palace is recognized as the first sect in the world, surrounded by smoke and clouds, surrounded by mountain peaks, far away from the world, it seems to be a sacred place in the fairy mountain, and ordinary people will never easily reach the Shenyun Palace, among which there are so many masters, ordinary people can't imagine, there is a rumor in the rivers and lakes, a sweeping boy in the Shenyun Palace may also be an immortal martial arts master. Today's saints have great respect for the masters of the rivers and lakes, especially the famous characters in the rivers and lakes, which are very respected, Langya Gongzi is naturally one of them, Langya Gongzi is definitely a big event in the Eastern Capital, maybe even His Majesty will personally feast this Langya Gongzi. After all, Langya Gongzi is famous in the rivers and lakes, maybe Xiao Yun is famous in the Eastern Capital, but for Langya Gongzi, Xiao Yun and him are simply different from each other, maybe in terms of identity, Xiao Yun is extremely noble, but in terms of rivers and lakes, Xiao Yun is afraid that even Langya Gongzi's sleeves can't be touched.
