Chapter 114: Retreating from relatives and proposing relatives is not wrong
After Liu Hemu sent the Liu family out, he hurriedly let go of Yu Mochu, walked to Yu County Order, patted Yu County Order's shoulder and said with a smile: "Lord Yu, that's right!" The best of both worlds, why not! Rest assured, Yu Gongzi is full of scriptures and has a bright future, and he will be able to glorify the lintel for your Yu family. ”
"Lord Wang, Weichen has a small request."
"Master Yu, speak up."
"Wechen is such a son under his knees, and Wechen is getting old, I want my son to stay by my side to do my filial piety, and I ask the prince to be gracious."
Liu He wandered around the house, and said confidently: "This is easy to do, in Luoyang City, there are many old departments of this king, and tomorrow I will find a suitable errand for my son." ”
"That Weichen thanked the prince." Yu Xianling frowned, his expression still heavy.
Yu Mochu felt relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Then I will bother Yu County to accompany the king to Sima Mansion, return Miss Sima's Geng post, and return the matter of retiring to Yin Yanming of Luoyang Mansion." Liu He made a respectful hand ornament and signaled Yu County to go along.
Yu Xianling looked thoughtful, hesitated for a moment, walked to the side of the main seat, picked up the brocade box of silver coins, and put his hands in front of Liu He's eyes and said, "Lord Wang, please take back these silver coins!" Weichen made a reversal, and he had no shame to face his ancestors. If he accepts these coins again, then Weichen will really have no shame to live anymore. ”
Hum! There are really fools in this world who don't like money, love it or not, don't want this king to save it, you can go to the drunk beauty knee one more time.
"Manager Jin, Yu County Order has a clear breeze on his sleeves, and he will not take away this thing that insults Yu County's high wind and bright festival." Liu He said angrily to Jin Yi who was following behind him.
Jin Yi responded and took the brocade box from Yu Xianling's hand.
Yu Xian Ling explained a few more words to Yu Mochu, and then followed Liu He to Sima Mansion.
On the way to Sima Mansion, Liu He sent someone to purchase a number of precious meeting gifts.
Junyi is a place of ointment, and Liu He is like collecting money in the local area, so as long as it is a matter of money that can be settled, he thinks it is not a matter.
As if he had just arrived at the Yu Mansion, Liu He was respectfully welcomed into the Sima Mansion. Behind him was a group of people holding big boxes, small boxes, and big bags of things.
At this time, Sima Qu was still in the yali, and the person in charge of entertaining Liu He was naturally his wife Lu.
Listening to the snow pavilion guest hall, the atmosphere was extremely tense.
The Lu family has never dealt with such a royal relative, and she is still a man, she is a woman, and she really can't find a suitable topic. She smiled awkwardly and said without stubble.
At the gate, she had already sent the housekeeper Xie to ask Sima Qu to come back. If this Junyi king has anything important, she is afraid that she will not be able to be the master and will miss the right thing.
"I don't know what the prince has to say when he comes to our mansion today?" Lu asked cautiously.
Liu He smiled without saying a word, and clapped his hands three times.
The applause fell, and the subordinates waiting outside the door lined up and walked into the inner hall with their things in their arms.
Lu Shi was confused.
It is difficult for the husband to make meritorious contributions, and this is specially to come to encourage.
She didn't think about proposing marriage at all, the two school-age girls already had a marriage contract, Sima Daining was still young, and it was not yet time to talk about marriage, so it was no wonder that she didn't think about it.
She couldn't help it and asked, "Lord Wang, is this?" ”
Liu He got up and pointed to the pile of uneven gifts in front of the hall with a closed folding fan, and said with a smile: "These are all gifts for proposing, Madame see if it is enough?" If it is not enough, the king will immediately send someone to buy it. ”
"Propose?" Lu Shi's face was full of surprise and stunned, and he smiled bitterly: "Isn't there any misunderstanding on the prince's face?" There is no girl in the courtier's family who is suitable for marriage? ”
Yu Xianling sat silently on the side, because the Lu family had never seen Yu Xianling, so they didn't know that the person in front of him who was worried was the future father-in-law of her Sima Mansion.
"Not now, but later." Liu He moved his gaze to Yu County Order, "Yu County Order, I still haven't solved my wife's confusion." ”
After that, Liu He sat back in his chair, drinking tea leisurely with a face, and listened to his ears.
Yu County's face is full of embarrassment, the two heads of the family are officials in the same dynasty, and there is no resentment in the near future, and there is no enmity in the distance. This kind of backsliding, he is really hard to talk about.
Liu He is reaping the benefits of the fisherman, but for the Yu family, it is simply a disaster. If this kind of thing spreads, the rest of his family will be notorious.
Thinking about this, he felt a little remorseful and wanted to retreat.
Seeing that he was stunned, Liu He coughed lightly twice and brought him back to his senses.
He took out Sima Daiyuan's Geng post from his arms, held it in front of Lu Shi with both hands, and handed it to Lu Shi. Then you can turn around and go back to your seat, with a look of guilt on your face.
He looked at Lu Shi without face, and he couldn't stand there groveling like a subordinate who had made a mistake.
He is a seven-foot man, even if he is helpless, he should have the humility and arrogance of being a county magistrate.
Lu Shi took the Geng post, opened it and took a cursory look, and hurriedly asked: "This is the Geng post of the eldest girl in my house......" She lowered her voice and muttered to herself: "Yu County Order, Yu County Order ......" After repeating Liu He's name to the person in front of him a few times, he suddenly realized: "Isn't it you or Xin'an County Order?" ”
Yu Xianling grimaced and nodded slightly in response.
"Then, what does Yu Xian Ling mean by this?" Lu Shi raised the Geng post in his hand and looked at Yu Xian Ling a few steps away suspiciously, as if questioning.
"Yu's family is poor, and Erlang is not the best among the people, so he is not worthy of the daughter of the Yin family. After thinking about it again and again, Yu still decided to quit this family business, so as not to miss Miss Sima's life. ”
He lied, and he, who has always judged cases like a god, hates people who are full of lies the most. He never dreamed that one day, he would also be reduced to making up nonsense and deceiving people, and there was a reason, his face was not red and his heart was not beating.
Divorce from Sima's family and Yu Mansion is not necessarily a good thing, and the Lu family can't understand why this Yu County Order would lift a stone to shoot himself in the foot.
There was no need to discuss this matter with Sima Qu, she also knew in her heart that it was absolutely undesirable, and she hurriedly responded: "Yu County Order, how can you think so!" The slave family and the master of the family have never felt that your son is not worthy of my girl. On the contrary, the slave husband admires your son very much. ”
"Madam, you will no longer comfort Yu. This matter is that the Yu family is sorry for the Sima family, if there is a chance in the future, my Yu family will try their best to compensate. After that, Yu Xian Ling got up and wanted to leave, "Yu still has something to do, so he will leave first." ”
"Yu County Order, Yu County Order, please stay ......" Lu got up and chased out the door, wanting to keep Yu County Order, and wait for Sima Qu to come back and then maneuver around to see if there was room for maneuver.
When Yu Xian Ling heard the voice, he could only turn a deaf ear, took a hurried step, and soon disappeared at the end of the corridor.
There is still a big Buddha in the guest hall that needs to be entertained, and she can't catch up anymore, so she can only give up and turn back into the guest hall. Laughing awkwardly, he sat back in his seat.
Liu He looked at the depressed Lu Shi and said with a smile: "Madam, it is Yu Xian Ling who has no eyes, and he does not know the blessing in the blessing, you don't need to worry about it." ”
"Thank you for your relief!"
"Since your eldest lady is free again, then this king will take the liberty to propose to his wife today, and this king is willing to marry the eldest lady." Liu He's face was full of pride, "This king has just said that these are gifts for proposing relatives, Madame take a closer look, if it is not enough, this king can send someone to buy it." Liu He repeated what he had said before.
It's really strange today, and it's a good fate that was originally a nail in the coffin, but if you don't say it, you don't have it. Suddenly, there was an unexpected, just quit over there, and rushed to propose here, it's really a nail and an eye.
However, losing a jinshi in exchange for a prince is simply shit luck for the Sima family.
Such a good thing, the Lu family can't wait to respond immediately.
But she thought about it, where in the world is there such a coincidence? How can there be such a pie in the sky?
No, there's some intrigue in this, right?
She knows that she is not good at scheming and calculating, and she knows very little about officialdom. For such a big thing, she still waited for Sima Qu to deal with it.
"Lord Wang, as soon as you quit your family, you immediately chose another good fate, I'm afraid it's a little too hasty." Lu Shi looked embarrassed.
Liu He retorted: "Madame's words are wrong! Good things are better than later, so why rush them? ”
"Marriage is a major event, and it is a marriage with the prince, so you should be more cautious. The Sima family is so high, and the slave family is afraid of provoking criticism and ruining the reputation of the prince. ”
Liu He saw that the Lu family had been pushing and pushing, and he was unhappy in his heart. He Liu He wants to marry, and the good girl can be lined up from the Junyi Wangfu to the city gate.
Now, he deigned to come to the door, but the Lu family didn't know what to do, and he felt that his majesty was gone.
He said angrily, "What do you mean, madam? Do you want to reject this king thousands of miles away? ”
Seeing Liu He's face change suddenly, the Lu family hurriedly reassured: "No, no, the slave family doesn't dare, the slave family just wants to inform the husband and let the husband discuss this matter with the prince in person." ”
"Aren't you going to get married? If there is anything to discuss, tomorrow the king will send someone to fetch Gengti. With that, Liu He flicked his sleeves and left angrily.
Lu Shi followed closely behind, sent him out of the door, and respectfully watched the carriage he was riding in drive away before turning back to the house.
Not long after Liu He left, Sima Qu hurried back.
The Lu family told them one by one about retiring from their relatives and proposing their relatives, and after Sima Qu heard it, his brows were tightly locked, and he did not have the joy of climbing the high branches.
Others may not know, but he Sima Quke knows very well what kind of person this Liu He is.
After the autumn of last year, the Holy Lord specially sent him to Junyi on an errand.
Diagonally opposite the post house where he stayed, it happened to be a Chu Pavilion.
That day, he was basking in the sun on the balcony facing the street.
I accidentally found Liu He walking out of the Chu Pavilion with a drunken face and lazy eyes. Thinking with his toes, he knew that he must have been drunk and lying on the knees of a beautiful woman last night.
Because he had a few encounters with Liu He before, he immediately recognized the person who hugged him left and right and fell in love with Liu Lane on Flower Street was Liu He, the king of Junyi.
Sima Qu didn't care too much, rich people, it is inevitable to act on the spot.
However, the next scene really surprised him.
A white-haired old man, dragging a young woman who was shy to answer, blocked Liu He's way at the gate of the Chu Pavilion. The two were dressed in coarse cloth clothes, and they looked like they were from poor backgrounds.
Before the two approached, they were forcibly stopped by Liu He's entourage.
