When Chen arrived at the Yingchuan Palace, he deliberately took a few glances in front of the palace, and there was a red gold plaque hanging on the gate of the palace, but there was no majesty and liveliness of other palaces, no guests came to the door, and there were no majestic palace guards, only a few attendants stood in front of the palace gate, and they were very surprised to see her coming, it seemed that there were really few people who came to the door.

Chen smiled slightly, after all, it is empty of the name of the palace, if it weren't for His Majesty's soft-heartedness in recent years, the mother and son here are afraid that they would have lost their lives a long time ago, and now they are left in Chang'an, just to avoid future troubles, after all, Xuzhou is so far away, if it is not a trouble to raise a tiger.

She was even more down-to-earth, and followed the servant woman into the palace with a smile.

"Princess, come here rashly, and ask for forgiveness." Chen's salute to Lu's after a few weeks.

Lu Shi was strange, looking at Chen suspiciously, Duchess Wei Guo is not an ordinary official eunuch, even if she doesn't bother to ask about the affairs of the court, she also knows that Wei Guo Gong is now the generalissimo of the Western Expedition, the Wei Guo Mansion is hot, and the two most trusted generals of the prince, how could they get to the door of the Yingchuan Palace.

She smiled kindly: "Madame is so polite, I don't know why she came to see me?" ”

Chen's smile was just right: "I have long wanted to come to meet the princess, but I am afraid that it will be too abrupt, and I heard that the princess lives in a simple place and does not come out to walk around, so I dare not come to the door to disturb, and today I came because of a happy event to ask the princess for a favor." ”

Lu Shi was even more puzzled: "Happy event? ”

“…… It is Guozi Jian Cheng Guo Fu Shangerlang, who has already won the lift, and now he is studying in Taixue, and he will end next year, his homework is excellent, and several doctors are full of praise for him. Chen didn't go around in circles, and told Lu about Guo Erlang with a smile, "I'm just seventeen this year, and the age is also appropriate." There are only two brothers in the Guo family, Mrs. Guo I have seen, neat and generous, and I can take care of them a little more in the future. ”

Lu Shi didn't expect that Chen Shi actually wanted to propose marriage to Xiao Rongyue, and he was stunned for a while: "But ......"

Seeing her ignorant, Chen was even more confident: "The princess is afraid that she doesn't know the Guo family, the two old people of the Guo family are old, and they don't ask about the affairs of the house, they are all given by Mrs. Guo in the host, if you marry in the past, you don't have to worry about tea, rice, oil and salt, and you can live a small life comfortably with the door closed." ”

"When Mrs. Guo found me before, when she talked about this family business, I was also worried, I was afraid that I had wronged Mrs. Xiao, but then I asked carefully, and I felt that it was indeed reliable and reliable, so I should go down and help come to the door to say goodbye." Chen smiled with crooked eyebrows and a happy look.

The Lu family came back to his senses at this time, but he frowned and said, "How did Mrs. Guo Jiancheng know about Yue Niang?" Has she seen Yue Niang? ”

Chen choked up and said hurriedly: "I heard about Mrs. Xiao." ”

Heard? Lu Shi is not confused, she has always been careful, but she is not as bold and assertive as Xiao Rongyue: "Just when I heard about it, I wanted to ask for a marriage?" Did you also invite your wife to come forward? ”

Chen didn't know how to answer for a while, she didn't expect that looking at the cowardly Lu family, she would actually study this in detail, originally thinking that she would come to the door to propose, how could the Lu family be happy, after all, the Yingchuan Royal Mansion is now isolated, if you can have some friendship with the Weiguo Mansion, it is a rare good thing.

Seeing that Chen couldn't answer, Lu Shi had some bottom in his heart, and his face sank: "I understand Madame's kindness, but although Yue Niang is my sister-in-law, her family affairs are not something I can decide at will, and she must be willing to do it herself, not to mention that when I entered the palace a few days ago, His Majesty also asked Yue Niang to come, and what to do after that must be clarified." ”

Chen didn't want the Lu family not only not to agree, but also to say such a thing, and froze on the spot for a while, and it took a long time before he pulled out a smile in embarrassment: "This is natural, the princess is also planning for Xiao Niangzi, or am I reckless." ”

Lu Shi listened to her words and smiled: "Madame is also thinking about Yue Niang, this matter is still waiting for Yue Niang to come, I will discuss it with her, after all, marriage is a good thing to marry two surnames, and it is better to have wishful thinking." ”

After a few words, Chen got up to take his leave, and hurriedly took the maidservant and left, completely without the smugness he had when he came.

The Lu family's face was ugly, and he called Cen 's mother: "Let people inquire about the Guozijian Guo's mansion, and find out better, as well as the relationship between Mrs. Guo and the Weiguo Mansion." ”

Mother Cen rarely saw Lu's solemn look, and she was busy, but she didn't understand: "Princess, this is ...... suspicion?"

Lu Shi wrung his brows: "I have never seen Mrs. Guo, nor have I had any dealings with the Guo Mansion, Yue Niang has only been in Chang'an for more than two months, and she rarely goes out on weekdays, even if she goes to a few princely mansions with me, how can the Guo Mansion hear about her, not to mention that she has to come to the door to propose marriage, this matter is really strange." ”

"What's more, if the Duchess of Wei Guo was invited, if it was Guo Jian Cheng's mansion and Wei Guogong who were close, then there was a reason inside."

Mother Cen was shocked when she heard this: "What is this for, how could she hit the idea on Mrs. Xiao." ”

Lu Shi shook his head: "No matter what, you can't let Yue Niang be calculated." ”

She didn't plan to hide Xiao Rongyue, and she also wanted Xiao Rongyue to pay attention to herself, so she sent someone to Shengyefang to invite Xiao Rongyue over, and told Xiao Rongyue about Chen's visit.

“…… Duchess Wei Guo wants to propose marriage to me? Xiao Rongyue was stunned.

Lu Shi nodded, worried: "I asked people to inquire, saying that Mrs. Guo rarely walks around the Weiguo Mansion, or has she only been there once in the past few days, and she didn't have much friendship before." ”

The look of surprise on Xiao Rongyue's face gradually faded, and it was more indifferent: "Then the Duchess of Weiguo took the initiative to come to the door to say goodbye, I'm afraid she has other plans." ”

"That Guo Erlang's character and talent are really good, but it's just ......," Lu sighed, "It's just that Mrs. Guo is in charge of the house, I heard that Mrs. Guo is quite powerful, and she has a rigid temperament, so I am afraid that I will have to suffer a lot of grievances if I marry in the past." ”

She said very tactfully, but the news that Cen mother asked people to inquire about was that Mrs. Guo's Fang family was rigid and stingy, and treated her uncle like a nephew, and even Guo Jian Cheng gave her a little respect, if she married a new brother-in-law, I am afraid that there will be one more mother-in-law in this family, not to mention letting the bride go out to shop Zhuangzi, at that time, I am afraid that I can only hand over all the dowries to Fang's family.

When Xiao Rongyue heard this, there was anything she didn't understand, but she didn't get angry, she just sneered slightly: "Thank you princess, I'll deal with the rest." ”
