Hou Ye returned home and heard what happened, the mother and son sat together to discuss the state banquet, Hou Ye became more and more dull, I thought that Mrs. Hou would remember Zhu Ranhong to his name for him, and participate in the state banquet in the name of his son-in-law, in the design of marrying the eighth princess back to the house, Zhu Ranhong is still the princess, naturally will not compete for the position of the prince, and she has no conflict of interest, why not.

The old lady was in a hurry in the room with a cane, which burned her eyebrows, and the Hou Ye hadn't been able to come up with a way to deal with it, how should this be.

"Son, you have to make that idea as soon as possible, even if your daughter-in-law is unwilling, it is really not possible to bring someone in in the name of our Hou Mansion, no matter how bad it is, it should be brought in as a small girl, and when the time comes, you are telling Hong'er's identity, and the eighth princess has to swallow it in her stomach if she knocks out her teeth, and when the time comes, the concubine will come forward, and the queen mother will be restrained, and Hong'er will be logical."

The old lady was really anxious, so she let Zhu Ranhong enter the palace as a subordinate of the little maid, and she also had to design the eighth princess, if it became it, it would be easy to say, no, according to the decisive nature of the eighth princess, she could take Zhu Ranhong's life on the spot.

Such a bad idea, Master Hou, a person who has lived in officialdom for a long time, actually nodded and agreed. When Mrs. Hou got the news, she really didn't know if she was blind at the beginning, so she fell in love with a person like Hou Ye.

Zhu Rancheng was calm and calm, such a result was within his expectations, but he was suddenly confused, his grandmother was dedicated to the Hou Mansion, how could she ignore the safety of the Hou Mansion for the sake of a son of the outer chamber and burn the century-old foundation, is there a secret he doesn't know.

Zhu Ranqing was so angry that he almost dropped the cup, such a disgraceful son of the outer room, his father was so loving, his grandmother strictly followed the rules, and people who always cared about the difference between his concubines and concubines could accommodate him to go to the palace to attend the state banquet, and he whimsically wanted to marry the eighth princess.

Regardless of the status of the eighth princess, just rely on the temper of the eighth princess, if things fail, where will there be good fruits to eat in the Hou Mansion. The concubine is now a special favorite, even the queen's aunt has to be humble for three points, the storage position is undecided, and there are a few people in the Hou Mansion who dare to design the pearl of the royal palm.

"Big brother, we just sit back and watch what happens to the Hou Mansion." Zhu Ranqing has respected this brother since he was a child, and he must put his brother first in everything, of course, it is common for his brother to be punished for him, and he has never complained.

"The state of affairs is unknown, why be so impatient, we might as well go to our mother's place and sit down, there will be a state banquet in two days, and we must always ask our mother what preparations should be made, even if grandmother wants to detain her, she can't stop us as sons."

The two hit it off and asked Spear to inform his sister, and the three brothers and sisters went together so as not to make their grandmother suspicious.

Spear and Changlin are twin sons, the son of Mrs. Hou's mother's family, she has been a follower to Zhu Rancheng and Zhu Ranqing since childhood, and the two boys are clever and loyal, and they are undoubtedly the most suitable candidates.

Changlin sent someone to return to Mrs. Hou as soon as the incense was burned, and Mama Liu hurriedly ordered the kitchen to pick up the dishes, in fact, the kitchen is not troublesome, the dishes in each room are the dishes that the masters like, as long as the meals of the three brothers and sisters are sent to Mrs. Hou's courtyard.

The kitchen steward was rewarded by Mama Liu, so how could he not care.

The three brothers and sisters walked in the courtyard, and the afterglow of the slanting sun fell on their bodies, hazy like a light mist. Zhu Rancheng raised his eyes and looked, and the deep buildings and palaces around him were actually separated from the vast world of his dreams.

Mrs. Hou's courtyard is elegant and chic, not extravagant, nor cumbersome, but it looks spacious and comfortable.

Zhu Rancheng is the eldest son, young and old, not like Zhu Ranhuan who is cheerful like a bird swooping into Mrs. Hou's arms to be coquettish, even Ran Qing is a little more childish.

He shook his head helplessly, but he was also very happy, Mrs. Hou saw his thoughts, beckoned them to sit down, Ran Wan and Ran Qing chirped to discuss the service to be prepared for entering the palace, Ran Qing said bluntly, the girl's house is hypocritical, the jewelry style is not novel, you should buy new ones, and the clothes should be made better every season.

Ran Wan is not humble, and it is not okay to threaten envy, who makes him a man, and he can't complain about others. Shengsheng was speechless when Ran Qing spoke, and only then did he die down.

Mrs. Hou looked at a pair of children bickering, and she was not partial, and she was happy.

The dinner table is very simple, the sleep is silent, the children are sandwiching each other's dishes, Mrs. Hou's bowl is piled up, and the children's strong care makes Mrs. Hou's heart sweeter than eating honey. Naikan bar Chinese network

After the meal, after the refreshments, Mama Liu willingly led Ran Wan to the back room, saying that it was to take a look at the clothes and jewelry that Mrs. Hou had made for her, Ran Cheng specially asked Ran Qing to help as a staff officer, Ran Qing understood in her heart, knowing that the eldest brother had something to discuss with her mother, and obediently pulled Ran Wan away to give their mother and son enough time.

"The Hanlin Yuan is the Qingshui Yamen, and it has no substantive rights. But it is also a place for cultivating talents, teaching talents, and compiling history books, and at the same time examining the system and arbitrarily doing political affairs, your queen aunt said, the emperor wants to sharpen your temperament, you have the talent of the prime minister, but you are not in a hurry, and the current trend in the court is unknown, and the crown prince has not been established, so you need to be cautious. Mrs. Hou spoke softly, although she was in the back house, she was really worried about the changes in the court.

Ran Cheng smiled happily: "The mother doesn't have to have a heart for her son, the food of the king, the matter of loyalty to the king, this truth, the son has entered the way of Confucius and Mencius, and he will abide by it." ”

In the afternoon, the sun is shining, reflecting the white swaying of the snow a little dazzling, the ice and snow on the ground are still not moving, the ice on the branches of the roadside is crystal clear, the light and shadow are shining, and there are still no water droplets falling, it seems that no matter how warm the sun is, it cannot warm the cold ice that is as solid as stones in winter.

Mrs. Hou remembered all the past events with Hou Ye, and couldn't help but sigh, it was really like the current weather, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get Hou Ye's heart back, she was tired, rolled, if her son wanted to say a few words for this, she could only listen silently.

"Mother, my son has something unclear, tangled to no avail, and can't think about it, so I want to come to my mother for advice."

"Mother, grandmother is the future of the Hou Mansion, but Zhu Ranhong's entry into the mansion is not only incompatible with the ancestral teachings, but also the family and country system is also contrary to each other. Why did grandmother still bring Zhu Ranhong into the Hou Mansion, and even had to fight with the eighth princess. The son felt that this was not as simple as the bloodline of the Hou Mansion. I have to admit that Zhu Rancheng looks at the problem from a very accurate angle.

These days, Mrs. Hou herself is also pondering, when the Hou Ye could give up that woman and coax himself into the mansion at all costs, isn't it for the century-old foundation of the Hou Mansion, and now the old lady can't wait to bring the son of the outer room into the mansion in a grand manner.

"This is also the unpredictable place for your mother, your father has always been silent about his mother, he had a beloved at the beginning, with your father's temperament, how can he bow his head and ask to marry his mother. Still sparing no effort to refuse many times, but not giving up, even calculating my reputation, your grandmother is indispensable. ”

The mother and son analyzed the pros and cons, and felt more and more that the old lady's approach could not be seen through, if the woman was holding the handle of the Hou Mansion in her hand, why did she delay it until now, she could have done it in the first place.

Zhu Rancheng's gaze was plain and waveless, but it was deep and far-reaching, as if it contained endless waves: "The enemy of the enemy, my friend." ”

Mrs. Hou was clear in an instant, yes, since the results can't be found in the mansion, why don't you go to other places to ask, maybe someone pays more attention to the secrets of the Hou Mansion over the years.

Zhu Ranhong rode away from the Hou Mansion in a hurry, no matter how much the little guy persuaded him, he was thrown two whips, touching his cheeks that had blood stains, the pain was hot, but the little guy didn't dare to slack off, and returned to the old lady with a sloppy smile.

The richest street and alley in Chang'an City in the north to say Huayang Lane, where most of the officials who live are of high rank, or the wealthy families who are in the northern imperial merchants, the house here is the price of every inch of land, when buying real estate here, the old lady can pour out her private money, and even sold a lot of jewelry, in case Mrs. Hou, did not dare to use the public account of the Hou Mansion, so she reluctantly bought a small courtyard here with three in and three out.

Zhu Ranhong's horse head slowed down as soon as he entered Huayang Lane, here he didn't have the courage to be presumptuous, if he annoyed any nobleman, the Hou Mansion couldn't afford it.

Hou Ye's outer room, her maiden name is Yu, because Hou Ye is not marrying Ming, she can only call herself Yu. Living in a simple place, the identity is embarrassing, although living in this rich alley, but never dare to easily walk around with neighbors, after all, the officials all value rules and etiquette, she, the outer room of the Hou Mansion, those noble official wives are the most despised people are afraid of her.

Zhu Ranhong has been in the Hou Mansion for a few days, she is restless, the Hou Ye knows the cold and the hot and cold to her like no longer again, and there is a faint sign of boredom, so she begged the old lady to bring Hong'er into the Hou Mansion, her son is rich, it is her future reliance, as for the man, she can't afford it.

Mama Yu beside her, who is also her grandmother, the son of her mother's family, said that the young master was back, and before she could lift the curtain, Zhu Ranhong kicked her to the ground, and scolded in her mouth.

Mama Yu endured the pain and accompanied the smiling face, such things often happened in the past, this child has been pampered by the young lady since he was a child, and regarded the lives of these minions as grass mustard, and there were not a few maids killed in his hands, Mama Yu sighed in her heart, it was really a sin, but she didn't dare to be disrespectful with words, for fear of provoking this Lord of Hades.

Yu's sorrow in the past few days has long disappeared when he saw his son, where can he still take care of Mama Yu, and he reached out to pull his son to sit down, but he was thrown away with disgust: "How many times have you said it, don't always treat me as a child." ”

His face was full of anger, his tone was not good, and Yu Shi accompanied him with a smile: "Hong'er, you want to be your mother, but you have just entered the Hou Mansion, don't provoke the disgust of your father and grandmother, everything must be restrained, but your grandmother said when you will go back?" ”
