Chapter 379: The Road Meets a Nobleman
Look at Yuliu's dress and conversation are very extraordinary, presumably her master must also be noble.
This group of minions didn't dare to offend, so they let Yuliu go back to the carriage.
At this time, inside the carriage.
"Niangniang, the person who just collided was Miss Zhang Ruxue from the Bachelor's Mansion, and the person who followed her on the other side seemed to be Imperial Doctor Li who was expelled from the palace before, Li Chenxiu."
Yuliu bowed her head and respectfully reported to Shang Kelan, Shang Kelan looked at her, a touch of nostalgia flashed in her eyes, and then said, "Help the palace to go out and see them." ”
"Yes, sissy."
Everyone was waiting outside, and after a while, they saw Yuliu helping a woman in red to come out, although she was combing the woman's hair, she looked very young and beautiful.
She was calm and elegant, her demeanor was gentle and dignified, and everyone was stunned for a while.
Zhang Ruxue and Li Chenxiu were stunned, and then, Li Chenxiu was the first to react, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted: "The grass people see Concubine Chen!" ”
Zhang Ruxue also followed, and hurriedly curtsied: "The courtiers see Concubine Chen!" ”
Concubine Chen? Isn't that His Majesty's favorite imperial concubine? is still the daughter of the left prime minister who leans towards the government and the opposition!
Suddenly, these little guys were startled, and hurriedly withdrew their eyes, and bowed down to Shang Kelan together: "Slaves, see Concubine Chen!" ”
Shang Kelan ignored them, and couldn't help frowning after seeing the appearance of Li Chenxiu and Zhang Ruxue.
She stepped forward and helped the two of them up, and said with concern, "How did you get like this?" Miss Zhang, why are you wearing a wedding dress? ”
Zhang Ruxue had never been asked so concerned, and she only felt sad for a while, so she lowered her eyes and replied: "My father and mother listened to the words of the second sister and wanted to marry me to Zhang Yuanwai in the city as a wife." ”
Hearing this, Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly, looking at Zhang Ruxue's appearance, she must not be willing to marry; Li Chenxiu had Zhang Ruxue's help before, and he would definitely not stand idly by, so he came to save her.
In a moment, Shang Kelan guessed the ins and outs of the future, and it seems that this person is not a good match.
As soon as Zhang Ruxue's voice fell, Shang Kelan held her hand and said helplessly: "Alas, it's no wonder that the palace didn't make it clear to Lord Zhang and Mrs. Zhang, my eldest brother felt guilty about you because of the wedding that day, so he let the palace make the decision for your marriage, but I didn't expect this misunderstanding to happen today!" ”
As she spoke, she changed her voice and asked with a smile: "Ruxue, do you want to marry that Zhang Yuanwai?" ”
"Yes."
Zhang Ruxue nodded without hesitation.
Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly, and she smiled: "Well, if you don't want to marry, then you won't marry." ”
A calm and unhurried sentence made Zhang Ruxue's heart shine into the sun again.
She raised her eyes to look at Shang Kelan in shock, but her face couldn't help but show excitement and joy.
Suddenly, the surrounding little guys became ugly, in stark contrast to Zhang Ruxue.
I saw Shang Kelan turn her eyes to look at these little guys, and said lightly: "The matter of your bachelor's mansion using the second lady to replace the eldest lady to marry my eldest brother before, this palace has not pursued it, but this palace and Miss Zhang fell in love, and the eldest brother was temporarily entrusted, and this palace will definitely not let Ruxue marry someone she doesn't love." ”
"You go back and bring this original word to Mrs. Zhang and Master Zhang, if they want to ask for an explanation, just come to the palace to find the palace!"
As soon as the words fell, Yuliu stepped forward and looked at these people with a serious expression: "If you hear clearly, please go back, could it be that you can even listen to Concubine Chen's words?" "Odd book e-book
Yuliu has been in the palace for a long time, and she has brought a lot of minions in her hands, so she naturally has a sense of oppression when she is serious, which makes people dare not refute.
"Yes! Be! Slaves retreat! ”
The little guys hurriedly said and reluctantly left here.
After they left, Zhang Ruxue was completely relieved, and her legs and stomach were a little weak.
She helped Li Chenxiu, curtsied to Shang Kelan, and said, "Thank you Niangniang for coming to the rescue, Ruxue is grateful, he will repay him every day!" ”
Shang Kelan shook her head, helped her and said, "There are many people here, don't stay for a long time, let's get on the bus with the palace first." ”
Zhang Ruxue nodded.
After the group got into the carriage, the coachman drove slowly again, and according to Shang Kelan's instructions, the carriage came to a secluded house in the east of the city.
The door of this courtyard reads "Shang House".
"Mother, it's here." The coachman took the reins and turned back to the inside.
After he stopped the carriage, Yuliu helped Shang Kelan get out of the carriage, followed by Zhang Ruxue and Li Chenxiu.
I saw Shang Kelan come forward and knock on the door of Shang Mansion, and after a while, the door opened, and an old man with white hair stood in the door, his face was peaceful, and he looked about sixty years old.
Shang Kelan saw him, smiled slightly, and said in an affectionate tone: "Uncle Xu." ”
Uncle Xu was also very surprised when he saw Shang Kelan, hurriedly got out of the way, nodded and smiled: "Miss, are you back?" Don't worry, I take good care of the house, there is no dust at all, hurry, please come in! ”
Shang Kelan nodded and walked in with the people behind her.
Zhang Ruxue held Li Chenxiu's hand a little nervously, Li Chenxiu paused for a moment, pursed his lips, and did not speak.
After entering the lobby and sitting down, a grandmother and a maid came from the house and served them tea.
After Shang Kelan took a sip of tea, she pointed to them and introduced: "This is Uncle Xu, who used to be the housekeeper of my family, and the palace has a close relationship with Uncle Xu, but now thanks to him, he helps take care of this house." ”
Uncle Xu stood beside her, and said with a modest smile when he heard this: "Where is it, little old man, thank Miss for giving me this place to stay." ”
Shang Kelan nodded and smiled, and then pointed to the grandmother and maid standing in the lobby, and said, "These two are Sister-in-law Tian and Xiaomei, and they take care of everything at home, and they are also very familiar with me." ”
Sister-in-law Tian has a country accent, dresses plainly, and looks like a loyal and honest person. And Xiaomei is young and beautiful, her eyes are bright and clear, and she is a clever girl.
As soon as Shang Kelan's words fell, they nodded to Zhang Ruxue and Li Chenxiu with smiles.
After the introduction, Shang Kelan said to Zhang Ruxue: "Miss Zhang, is there a place to stay temporarily?" ”
Zhang Ruxue sighed, and said with a lost expression: "The courtier's daughter escaped from marriage today, even if she has nothing to do with the bachelor's mansion, there is nowhere to go, if I go to my grandfather's house, I am afraid that I will cause trouble for my grandfather's family." ”
Shang Kelan smiled and said calmly: "Since this is the case, then temporarily wronged Miss Zhang to live here first, this palace has always admired Miss Zhang's pipa, and when she is free, she can come to learn piano skills with Miss Zhang, and Uncle Xu, Sister-in-law Tian, and Xiaomei are all smart people, and they can also be dealt with if there is anything." ”
Uncle Xu, Sister-in-law Tian and Xiaomei nodded to Zhang Ruxue, Zhang Ruxue's eyes were moved, and she couldn't help the tip of her nose, and then got up and saluted her and thanked her: "Concubine Chen's mother is very kind, and the little woman can't repay it!" ”
Shang Kelan smiled, Yuliu stepped forward to help her up, and said, "The girl doesn't have to be polite, it's rare for the mother to fall in love with you, so you can sit down and rest." ”
Li Chenxiu didn't dare to glance at Shang Kelan from beginning to end, but when he saw that Zhang Ruxue was properly placed, he also breathed a sigh of relief, got up and said, "Since the mother and mother have been properly settled, the grass people will retire first." ”
