031 Beauty is like jade
The first spring rain was a little late. But winter goes to spring. Everything recovers.
Whether it's the court. Or among the common people. The whole of Kyoto is alive and well.
After the New Year. There are happy events almost every day.
Another month passed. March 3rd Daughter's Day. It is a big day for Nanliang.
And not only because of this day. All unmarried women can take to the street and throw sachets at the man they like. Second, the new emperor chose a concubine for the first time after ascending the throne. There are many women who want to go to Huangze Temple to worship Xianhe. Pray and make a wish. Even if you can't enter the palace and live a rich life. I also look forward to a happy marriage.
The night before Daughter's Day. Shangguan Le called Shangguan Erya to the study.
Shangguan Erya saw that Shangguan Le's whole person had lost weight. I couldn't help but say, "Father still has to take care of his body."
Since the spring rain, Shangguanle has been busy. As the head of the household, he needs to select beautiful women from all over the country for the emperor. Shangguan Erya hadn't seen him for nearly a month.
Exactly. Since the night of Richie's "accident". Shangguan Le became very eccentric.
Shangguan Le nodded with satisfaction. You've got a heart."
"Father is so busy. Call me suddenly. There must be something important."
Shangguan Erya saw that Shangguan Le had something unspeakable. Then he took the initiative to ask.
Shangguan Le said with a smile on his face: "Tomorrow is Daughter's Day. I heard that you have made an appointment with the daughter of the Lan family."
"yes." Hanging Erya saw him and talked about him left and right. smiled: "I asked Ah Jiu to go to Guhe to put lanterns."
In addition to worshipping Xianhe, the Daughter's Festival. It is also possible to put lanterns. The girls meet to give each other gifts. As a sign of friendship.
"Good. The Yongkang Hou Lan family is now favored by the emperor. It's good to be close to them."
Don't wait for Shangguan Erya to say anything. Shangguan Le said again: "I heard what the Wang family said. Your sister has been very well-behaved lately. Take her with you tomorrow."
Shangguan Erya was stunned. smiled: "Is my father talking about the peach?"
Then. Shangguan Le's face became a little delicate. Disdainfully: "Hmph. The one who was embarrassed. How could it be her."
"Father. The peach is also your daughter after all." Shangguan Erya persuaded him with good words: "Even if Yunzhu made such a big mistake at the beginning. Didn't you forgive her too."
Shangguan Le sighed: "You don't know what Zhitao did."
"Father said about her and Richie." Of course Shangguan Erya knew. All of this was what she arranged for Shangguan Le to know. She said lightly: "No one knows now. And I heard that Richie had an accident. Very badly injured. Every day at home to recuperate. The matchmaker who came last time also scolded back. He didn't move. I guess I don't dare to mention marriage again."
"I'll break his leg if he dares." Shangguan Le said viciously.
Just think of his daughter who has been spoiled since she was a child, and she is so shameless. and Richie. His heart ached.
Even if it's shameless. You can't choose Richie either.
They are inseparable from the Gong Wangfu and the Li family.
Shangguan Erya continued: "Father. The peach can't help but get married. In half a month, she'll be in time......"
"Hey. But she is like this now. Who else can I marry?" Shangguan Le is not angry." In short, you can't marry Rich."
"Did the father ever think about ......?"
Shangguan Erya paused deliberately. Successfully attracted the attention of Shangguan Le.
She lowered her voice and said, "I heard that my father recently chose a concubine for the emperor...... If our family has a harem master. That's the icing on the cake."
This ...... "Shangguan Le didn't think about it." But...... You know the peach isn't finished."
Shangguan Erya smiled. Father. You're the head of the household, and this matter is not easy to handle. Even if you can't buy those who check it. I begged for rain before and made a great contribution. The emperor's reward has not yet come. If the father doesn't mind. And this reward was given to the peach. Our family's status is no longer the same."
I said before that I would use this reward to establish the prince of the palace. But Shangguan Le felt that it was not appropriate. After all, Chun Yan is crippled. And Chunliang is still young. It's a concubine again. The emperor may not agree.
But if you use this reward to send the peach to the palace. With the beauty of the peach and the status of Prince Gong's mansion. At least she can be promoted to a concubine. Even if there is no son. It can also keep the wealth of Prince Gong's mansion.
Shangguan Le didn't know that the emperor would suppress Prince Gong's mansion sooner or later. He also had to plan ahead.
Shangguan Erya saw that Shangguan Le was a little moved. couldn't help laughing and said, "Even if the emperor doesn't give this grace. It's not a bad thing to send the peach to the palace. After all, she must know that she is not perfect when she marries into a big family. And marrying into a small family will not be criticized."
"You're right."
Shangguan Le nodded heavily. This is also the reason why he doesn't want to think about Shangguan Zhitao's marriage.
Rather than marrying out and losing face. It's better to rot at home. Or send to the temple to be a nun.
But it was sent to the palace. It's different.
He can pull down his old face and ask the emperor for this grace.
See Shangguan Le agree. Shangguan Erya got up and said, "Then tomorrow I will take the peach to Huangze Temple to worship too. May my father's wish come true."
"Okay." Shangguan Le should be down. Then he thought about it and said, "Take your fourth sister with you."
Shangguan Erya's heart was cold. She knew that when it came to the head, Guan Le wanted to let herself take Guan Min out.
Shangguan Le was a little good and said: "Your fourth sister has also learned to be well-behaved during this time. Staying in the house all day will get stuffy. Take her out and you can point her out personally. You can rest assured. If she's a moth again. I, as a father, won't spare her."
"Father is serious. The fourth sister is playful. It is also appropriate for my daughter to take her out to see her."
A word of playfulness. Just let Shangguan Min lose face.
Shangguan was happy to see Shangguan Erya agree. Secretly relieved.
This family seems to be the Wang family's master. But even he has to discuss anything with Shangguan Erya.
Since when he was led away by his own daughter.
Shangguan Le was helpless. There's no way around it. His heirs are thin; Two sons, one crippled and one young. and only the eldest daughter can do everything.
He didn't dare to say anything serious to Erya. Be careful everywhere.
Come to think of it. Shangguan Le couldn't help but feel a little sneering in his heart.
Following. March 3rd Daughter's Day.
Shangguan Erya got up early in the morning rarely. Nothing to do for a month. She slept until three poles a day. It's very laid-back.
However, she asked Lan Ajiu to meet in the teahouse. I'm sorry to be late.
Had breakfast. Shangguan Erya saw the clothes Zihan was looking for. I couldn't help twitching the corners of my mouth." It's not like going to the palace for a feast. What do you do wearing so ceremoniously."
Qingwei on the side jumped up and said, "Today is our Nanliang's Daughter's Day. What woman on the street doesn't dress more fancy than for the New Year. Of course, the eldest lady can't be compared."
"But you don't need to wear ......."
Shangguan Erya pointed to the pink Shu Jinxiang cloud pattern skirt in Zihan's hand. And it's mopping the floor. Don't say it's bad to walk and get dirty. So many people on the street will definitely be stepped on. If you don't get it right, you can take two steps and fall on your head.
She patted her forehead. Keep it simple. I'm not like other people who go to worship immortals and ask for marriage."
Mama Yang quipped, "yes. Our eldest lady is just meeting up with friends. If King Jane knew that she went to ask for marriage. Don't lift the roof of our house yet."
Everyone in the room burst into laughter. King Jian's vinegar is not small. Especially when he starts a temper, it's even more terrifying.
They still remember the last time.
Shangguan Erya shook his head solemnly. What is our house? I think he can overturn the whole palace."
Lian Zihan was also amused by the eldest lady like that.
Jokes. Zihan still went to change into a light blue light blue silk dress. Shangguan Erya nodded with satisfaction. That's it."
She's always been carefree. He also took a ribbon of the same color and tied a black hair with an ingenious hairstyle.
"That's all. Qingwei went out with me."
Zihan hurriedly stopped again. Miss. It's so casual."
Shangguan Erya looked at herself in the mirror. Simple to wear. Dress up freshly. She doesn't think there's anything wrong with it.
Just thinking about it. Zihan stuck a turquoise hosta in her hair. And Qingwei quickly smeared jasmine cream on the ends of her hair. It gives off a charming flavor.
Mama Yang tied a sachet around her waist as if she didn't admit defeat. smiled: "Although the eldest lady will not give the sachet to others. But according to custom, it is still necessary to wear it. Maybe you will meet His Royal Highness King Jane. You can give it to him."
Dress up like this. The girl in the mirror immediately becomes charming and moving.
Shangguan Erya pulled out a helpless smile. You can only accept your fate.
She took Qingwei to Ermen. Shangguan Zhitao and Shangguan Min have already arrived. I saw her coming over. The eyes invariably zoom in.
Beauty is like jade. Shangguan Erya is like this.
Shangguan Min saluted obediently. Big sister."
I haven't seen you for a few days. Shangguan Min is really "sensible".
Shangguan Zhitao still turned his head with disdain on his face. Let's go. Make people wait that long."
"I'll go to the teahouse to meet a friend first. Zhi Tao will take Min'er to Huangze Temple first. I'll be there later."
"Big sister. Father said let me follow you......" Shangguan Min showed a cowardly expression.
Shangguan Zhitao snorted. You're willing to let you follow me."
She slanted to Shangguan Erya. Father said. We'll follow you wherever you go. I have to listen to you today, big sister."
When Shangguan Zhitao learned that this was proposed by Erya to his father. She didn't think it was good. So I brought joy with me.
Shangguan Erya saw that she was happy and pulled Shangguan Zhitao's sleeve. Motioned for her not to speak. Just a faint smile." Good. Then come with me to meet Miss Lan. When we meet her and make peace, we will go to Huangze Temple together."
After speaking. Shangguan Erya got into the first carriage first.
Shangguan Min followed to go up. Qingwei stood in front of her. Said politely: "Fourth Miss. The carriage is too small. You and Miss Three sit in the carriage behind."
Shangguan Zhitao in the back heard it. sneered: "Yes, fourth sister. People are different from us. She's a concubine, how can she sit with us."
In fact, Shangguan Zhitao hated it so much in his heart. I think she was also a concubine back then......
Back in the day.
Shangguan Zhitao clenched his fists tightly. Everything she had was snatched away by Shangguan Erya.
She got into the carriage first. Huanxi whispered, "Bear with me. Don't show any flaws."
