Text Chapter 106: Scheme

Who is the eldest princess of Yunping? Being able to win the favor of her old man and take her as a goddaughter is probably something that countless famous and noble girls dream of. Although Cailuo's words were polite, they also revealed that he was consulting the elders of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, but the tone was obviously when everyone agreed. In fact, it's no wonder that the color basket is such a good thing, unless it is a fool, how can anyone refuse?

Yi'er was a little confused, Old Madam Yang suddenly became the eldest princess of Yunping, and she still couldn't react.

Naturally, no one will object to this matter, even from the standpoint of the entire Qingxiang Hou Mansion, taking the eldest princess of Yunping can be said to be beneficial and harmless to the Hou Mansion.

As a result, some people in the audience were happy, some were happy, some were unwilling, and some were jealous......

Who would have thought that Yi'er's falling into the water would have been a disaster, but in the end, it would have been a blessing in disguise?

Cai Luo was respectfully sent out by the subordinates, and the old lady Lin looked at Yi'er with pity and repeatedly told Yi'er several times how to pay attention to her body when she fell into the water and suffered a cold, before she got up and left, and the rest of the rooms also went with the old lady.

Li Shi pulled Yi'er and didn't let anyone go, let the kitchen boil ginger soup and black tea, and saw Yi'er drink a full bowl before giving up. Yi'er has returned to the house unharmed, the Hou Mansion has already sent someone to Qiao's Mansion to report the news, everyone is relieved, those who are friends with Yi'er like the Yun family or the Hou Mansion have all wanted to come to the house to see Yi'er, and they thought that Yi'er fell into the water, they must have been frightened, and they should recuperate, so they expressed their concern to Du Ziwu, and they did not return to the Hou Mansion with Du Ziwu.

When Du Ziwu and the other men of the Hou Mansion returned to the house, the porter unexpectedly received an invitation, which made the entire Hou Mansion boil.

The next post is the Ningguo Mansion, but it turns out that May 18 is the birthday of the prince of Ningguo, and a banquet is going to be held to invite all the rooms of the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion to come. This post came too suddenly, who in the capital doesn't know the temperament of the prince of Ningguo, for so many years, how could he have invited guests to a birthday banquet and held it once? Moreover, for the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion, this is not the point at all, the point is that even if the Ningguo Mansion wants to hold a banquet and entertain guests, with his Qingxiang Marquis Mansion's family, where can he get the face and honor that the Ningguo Mansion specially invited?

What's more, the banquet on May 18, although it is now approaching, but the queen mother was seriously ill before, and all the red and white things in the capital were afraid to be handled because of taboos. And it was not just to invite the room of Qingxiang Hou, it was clearly written on the post that it was the Du family's rooms, which made Du Ziqi, the Marquis of Qingxiang, who was holding the post, puzzled.

The fourth lady Wei was also surprised, she thought for a while before saying, "Does Master Hou know that the prince of Ningguo also went to Qiao's mansion to celebrate his birthday today?" ”

Du Ziqian nodded and said, "This matter has spread throughout the Hou Mansion, how can the master not know?" It's just that the lord has never seen the face of this prince of Ningguo in the front yard, but I don't know why? ”

Wei said: "This prince of Ningguo will be eighteen years old soon, but I heard that even the marriage has not been finalized now. ”

Du Ziqian glanced at Wei and said, "Madam means that this birthday banquet of Ning Guogong is related to the marriage of the prince?" ”

Wei Shi smiled and said: "How can there be a mother in this world who doesn't worry about her children?" The concubine just felt that the prince of this world had just gone to Qiao's Mansion to celebrate his birthday, and the post of Ningguo Mansion had gone down to the mansion in the evening, didn't Hou Ye think it was too coincidental? ”

Du Ziqian suddenly said: "Could it be that the prince of this world went to Qiao's Mansion to celebrate his birthday, and it is true to take the opportunity to take a look at the daughters of various mansions?" ”

"Otherwise, Master Hou thinks that with a Yin Qiaochuan of Jingzhao Mansion, can he invite this prince who is famous for his cold heart and cold lungs to celebrate his birthday?"

Du Ziqian nodded and said, "Madame is reasonable. Then he thought of something again, and said busily, "The invitation from the Ningguo Mansion is coming down so quickly, it can't be ......."

Wei said: "The concubine also thinks that there is this possibility. ”

Du Ziyan frowned and said, "That lady thinks that this prince has a crush on which girl in the house?" ”

Wei said: "Master Hou is confused! There are only a few girls in our house, the one in the second room is the one who returned to the house with Li, and he didn't go to Qiao's Mansion at all, and the two eldest ones in the third room are only eleven years old, and they don't grow up, so how can they get into the eyes of the prince? ”

Du Ziqian agreed: "Yes, in this way, it can only be the eldest brother's kite and our Yao'er." Speaking of which, the color of the girl in the kite is so good, is it difficult to ......"

Wei snorted coldly and said, "No matter how good you are born, it will be useless if you don't have that life." Hou Ye didn't know, when the prince of Ningguo went to Qiao's mansion to celebrate his birthday, the girl in the long room had already gone to Nanhu with the girl of the Yun family, and the prince of this world had never seen anyone at all, so how could he look at her right? ”

Du Ziqian was a little stunned at this moment, and said, "Madam is saying that this prince of Ningguo should have taken a fancy to our Yao'er?" ”

"The concubine body feels that eight or nine are not far from ten."

Du Ziyan's brows furrowed even deeper, and he said, "Then this matter will be difficult to do." Ning Guogong and his father-in-law have always been at odds, and His Royal Highness King Tang is also very jealous of King Xiang, so we are caught in the middle, but we are in a dilemma. ”

Wei Shi smiled and said: "Hou Ye's rectal temperament, really, I can't change it after such a long time." The initiative in this matter is not on us, Hou Ye thought, if this Ningguo Mansion really comes to the door to propose, can Hou Ye refuse? Hou Ye is now serving in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, but Ning Guogong is the Governor of the Chinese Army, and he is the top boss of Hou Ye's boss. Hou Ye has been in this position for two years, Hou Ye has never thought about it, why has Hou Ye not had a chance to move again for two years? ”

Du Ziqian looked at Wei with amazement.

Wei Shi said again: "The concubine also knows that the Duke of Ning Guo is high and powerful, and she will definitely not and disdain to do anything directly to Hou Ye, but where does this kind of thing need to be expressed?" Hou Ye was labeled as the Marquis of Weiqin because of his concubine, and the indispensable people excluded and suppressed Hou Ye in order to appease Ning Guogong, Hou Ye thought about it, then Lu Bo, the military governor of the Hou, was very picky about Hou Ye's debriefing documents many times ago, is it really just because there are some flaws in Hou Ye's documents? ”

Du Ziqian sighed and said, "What Madame said makes sense, so according to Madame's opinion, is it possible that the Ningguo Mansion will come to propose marriage, and we will only have to agree?" But in this way, the father-in-law's side ......"

Wei said: "On my father's side, I don't need to think about it for the time being, but on the side of the Ningguo Mansion." Hou Ye thinks about it, we all have this scruple, so Ning Guogong is scheming, he can't think of it? If it was because of this, the Ningguo Mansion dispelled these thoughts, then there would be nothing to do, and the Hou Ye would not need to be entangled! But even so, if the Ningguo Mansion still wants to come to the door to propose marriage, it can only show that the prince is really interested in our Yao'er, if so, the concubine thinks that this is an opportunity for us? ”

"Opportunity?"

Wei said: "Master Hou thinks that among the current princes, who has the greatest chance after a hundred years of the current saint?" ”

Du Ziqian was taken aback, and saw that the maids and servants on the left and right had already been sent out by the Wei family, and there was no one else in the house except for him and his wife, so he thought about it and said: "His Royal Highness the Tang King is the elder, and he has the support of his father-in-law, and there is a great opportunity, and His Royal Highness the King of Xiang is the concubine, and there is Ning Guogong behind him, and it should not be underestimated. ”

Wei said: "Master Hou's analysis is yes. The concubine thought, marrying with the Ningguo Mansion, first of all, in the career of the Hou Ye, it can be said that there is no harm in it, and secondly, we can also take this opportunity to take the big ship of the Ningguo Mansion, in this way, whether it is the king of Tang ascending the throne or the king of Xiang laughing to the end in the future, we can be invincible. ”

Du Ziqian was stunned for a moment, looked at Wei fixedly, and after a long time, Fang let out a sigh of relief, and said: "Madame is really the master's interpretation flower, and she can be called Zhuge in the middle of the woman." Ye is really lucky, he can have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for? It's just that my father-in-law is there, I'm afraid of ......"

Wei said with a smile: "Father, although the Hou Ye can rest assured, don't say that we can't shirk this matter, there is no choice, that is, there are really other choices, I am afraid that my father is also happy to see it!" ”

"Why?"

Wei said: "My father taught concubines since he was a child, saying that no matter what time it is, the chips can't be pressed in one place. Father and Ning Guogong, to put it bluntly, is just a dispute between Tang Wang Xiang and King Xiang behind him, in fact, in private, he admires this Ning Guogong Jiang Pei very much. If the Ningguo Mansion is really willing to go to the mansion to propose marriage, then in a sense, it is equivalent to throwing an olive branch to his father, and his father is tactful, how can he let go of this opportunity? Besides, the two sides have set up a family affair, and there is more possibility of entanglement and constraints in many things, I am my father's own daughter, he should trust me, in this way, in the Weiqin Marquis Mansion, in fact, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. ”
