Changtai's thirty-three years of marriage decree gradually came down, in addition to Su Rujun and Liu Suguan, there are Wei Yuqing, Gu Liancheng, Zhang Sansi, Pei Xiyan, these Su Ruhua more or less heard of, among which Pei Xiyan is Su Ruhui's eldest sister-in-law Pei's younger brother, in the Northern Expedition for Changtai Imperial Guard, so he did not earn any military merits, but because of his martial arts and loyalty, Changtai likes him very much, this time to a young talent to marry, he is also listed.

Su Ruhui took the note presented by the housekeeper, and only after reading this line, he ordered Nanzi to make some things and send them to Pei's Daoxi - Changtai's wife to Pei Xiyan is Gu Ming, and the family backgrounds on both sides are also considered to be the right match, in contrast, the imperial capital Gu also had a Queen Mother Jingsu, but after the three sisters of the Su family went home, they said the selection in detail, this Gu Ming was bent on entering the East Palace, and from Su Ruhui's point of view, this Miss Gu family is arrogant, scheming...... She turned her mind for a moment, shook her head with a smile: The Pei family is the same as the Gu family, and it is not a valve reading, so she should be able to deal with it with her background.

Wei Yuqing, as the most valued son-in-law of the Wei family's generation, Changtai was unexpected, and he actually gave a clan woman to him as his wife-Ruiping County Lord, who was the daughter of King Lu, and the county lord, whose reputation in the imperial capital was not obvious, or after the holy decree of marriage was issued, it was gradually rumored that the county lord of Ruiping was born quite beautiful, quiet and elegant, and so on.

Su Ruhui pinched a mark under her name with her fingernails, and said to Nanzi: "Someone will investigate carefully." ”

"This county lord is married to Wei Yuqing, and the fourth lady thinks Wei Yuqing's future ...... in the future" Nanzi is not talking much, but he just wants to ask some Su Ruhua to understand what Su Ruhua means, so that he knows where to focus on it.

Su Ruhui smiled faintly: "This marriage, I suspect that the Wei family took the initiative to marry, Wei Song Shi's marriage, although the relationship has not been as good as before in the past few years, with Wei Yuqing's identity and talent, I will ask my family to marry a few cousins, or several other lords to ask for marriage, and I will never be refused." ”

Nanzi said: "Is the Wei family going to show determination to Your Majesty?" ”

"Now that Your Majesty is in power and has a stable position, what determination do they express?" Su Ruhui chuckled, "This matter may have something to do with the four highnesses in the palace, I won't have time to talk to you in detail, you just need to inquire about the Lord of Ruiping and Queen Lu, just be careful not to let people know." ”

Nanzi hurriedly wrote it down, and accompanied her to look down.

Zhang Sansi's wife Su Ruhui had a premonition when she saw his name, when Zhang Huan braved the heavy snow to go to the Queen Mother for him, but was perfunctory by the Queen Mother, at that time the prince was still Ganlin, Miss Ren's father was in charge of the forbidden army in the palace, and the Queen Mother naturally refused to give her to Zhang Sansi, who was still the companion of the vassal king at that time.

Now that he is willing to be the prince, Changtai did not hesitate to fulfill him in order to cut off the desire of other princes to compete for the prince, and in order to express his intention to defend the prince.

Thinking of the appearance of Zhang Jia's words on the Detai Palace, Su Ruhui suddenly felt a little sudden, from the thirty-second year of Changtai to the thirty-third year of Changtai, it was just less than a year of Chenguang, because of all the things that happened, it seemed like a few years had passed in retrospect.

She stretched out her finger and pinched it under Zhang Sansi's name again, and said, "Pay attention to the congratulatory gifts that can be given to him, and be careful." ”

Gan Ran has always only had this one companion, and he is the adopted son of the same clan of the Empress Dowager Jiayi, and Zhang Sansi's life experience, just like Concubine Lin De back then, Su Ruhui naturally wanted to treat him closer, thinking of Zhang Sansi, she thought of Zhang Juan, and thought of the years and companions in the deep palace - when Changtai was twenty-five years old, the five of them were called into the palace to accompany the queen mother and the queen. is like a poor child's daughter-in-law......

Soon Song Caisu was expelled, and now Xiao Huo is dead, the queen mother is sick, and the queen is also showing a state of losing power...... In the end, he won this game, gambled on Gan Ran's succession, and planned in every possible way, with the support of his family, he became a quasi-princess and embarked on the road to the throne of the most glorious woman in Dayong.

It's just that...... She suddenly became irritable, and looked at it quickly—

Gu Liancheng, married the young daughter of the Duke of Zhongguo: This Duke of Zhongguo is the pursuit of the former Taifu Wuluo, Su Ruhui recalled the appearance and demeanor of that Miss Wuluo, and couldn't help shaking her head, feeling sorry for Gu Liancheng. She remembered that at the end of last year, she and the Pei family went to the martial arts family to mourn, and the backyard was in chaos......

The young lady of the martial arts family is neither beautiful nor can she do it, Su Ruhui feels wronged in her heart for her talented and beautiful senior brother, and the two of them are both literate and martial, and the days to come will ...... She thought of her two cousins who liked Gu Liancheng again, and couldn't help frowning, and asked Nanzi: "Have the tenth and eleventh sisters said what they have been doing recently?" ”

"Mrs. Tai'anjun was invited to enjoy the flowers with Miss Eleven a few days ago—"

Su Ruhui smiled: "There is a way that the world is full of flowers in April, at this time the weather is starting to be hot, there are more insects, and there are no more good-looking flowers, but what flowers are you appreciating?" It's to see the beauty like a flower, right? ”

"That's what Miss Fourth said." Nanzi smiled and said, "Aren't the ladies of our family more delicate than flowers?" ”

"Who invited you?" Su Ruhui asked.

Nanzi said with a smile: "Ten days ago, it was invited by the Wei family, and halfway through Wei Yuqing's one-year-old cousin called Wei Yubai's 'just happen' to go to the Wei family's housewife to ask for peace...... Three days ago, it was Concubine Leng who made a post, and Mrs. Tai'an County had to go, and specially asked Miss Eleven to dress up a little less - Prince Zhao is a month younger than Prince Ning, but he has just reached the age of choosing a wife, I heard that Concubine Leng loves him very much, and plans to take advantage of her time in the imperial capital to personally choose a virtuous and virtuous woman who is as beautiful as a flower! ”

"Prince Zhao?" Su Ruhui raised her eyebrows, "Concubine Leng's granddaughter-in-law is not so easy to do, you just see that Queen Zhao is still Concubine Leng's maiden niece, and the son of King Zhao is not the eldest son!" Although there is a reason why Queen Zhao was happy later, it can be seen that Concubine Leng can't compare with her parents and nieces to her niece, let alone her granddaughter-in-law? Our family does not lack the power and wealth of the royal family...... My aunt and my eleventh sister went, what can I say when I come back? ”

Nanzi shook his head: "Concubine Leng only invited the ladies to take the young lady to the banquet to enjoy the flowers, and played happily in the backyard of King Zhao's mansion for a day. ”

"Isn't it easy to find a random corner in the palace and take a peek?" Su Ruhui was not at ease, "It's just that although you can see a lot of real behavior, it's always clear to take a picture before you come out, this prince of Zhao rarely entered the palace to ask for peace during festivals in previous years, there were many people like that, and I didn't care much about him, I remember that he seemed to be a little pale and weak, but it couldn't be that he was not in good health, and there was some hidden disease, right?" ”

Nanzi was taken aback: "Fourth Miss, you can't just say this!" ”

"Eleventh sister and tenth sister ......" Su Ruhui hesitated, but still asked, "Would you like to go to this kind of flower viewing party?" ”

"The two young ladies are flower-like characters, and they are concubines, and they don't know how many people want to be a wife, but because our family is placed here, ordinary people are out of reach, and the right people are afraid of being rejected and hurting their face, so they can only go back and forth with their names." Nanzi said, "I haven't heard of any refusal from the young ladies of the hall." ”

Su Ruhui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although she thought that Su Rumo and Su Ruran's temperament and upbringing would not be disgraced because of Gu Liancheng's marriage, in the end, she still had to ask to feel at ease.

Although Gu Liancheng has not been able to become the son-in-law of the Su family now, Su Rumo and Su Ruran's talent background is released, and they may not be able to choose a good son-in-law...... She didn't know that Gu Liancheng's marriage was all facilitated by Gan Ran, and even Miss Wu was willing to persuade Changtai to settle it.

There is no other reason - Gu Liancheng does not marry the daughter of the Su family, and in the future, Su Ruhui will live in the deep palace, and he will naturally gradually become estranged from him. The daughter of other families in the imperial capital, Su Ruhua can say a few words, this martial arts lady has enough status, but she has always been mediocre and not good at talking.

Moreover, Wu Luo died at the end of the year, and now that he is married, Gu Liancheng will have to wait for more than two years before he can marry Miss Wu, which means that without the connection of female dependents, after Su Ruhui's wedding, unless he is willing to invite Gu Liancheng to the East Palace, there will be no day to see each other.

- Gan Ran knew that Su Ruhui had a lot of respect for this talented senior brother, although there was no love between men and women, but he quietly pitted the latter to express his depression that he couldn't learn......

Su Ruhui naturally didn't know about these, she let go of her cousins' affairs, and instead had a headache for herself, stretched out her fingers and pressed her eyebrows, sighed lightly, pointed to the paper and said: "I thought Duanmuhui was out of the palace, I thought I didn't have any plans, but now I take a look - Zhou Yi'er, Zhang Yuan, I just left the palace to prepare for marriage, and didn't I get back from home?" It seems that it was too early to rejoice! ”

"What are their plans in the future, how can they get past Miss Four?" Nanzi hurriedly comforted, "That Duanmu Hui met once by chance when King Liang was still the crown prince, and she has always wanted to marry King Liang wholeheartedly, how could Your Majesty give her to the crown prince?" And Zhou Yi'er is the queen's niece, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may not like her, and Huo Guifei may not be able to see her, as for Miss Zhang's family, I heard that she fell into the lake and injured her vitality, and she couldn't even give birth to an heir...... What do these people compare to Miss Four? ”

Su Ruhui smiled faintly, her eyes were deep: "They are just the first to dial, in the future, the days are still long!" ”

Seeing her like this, Nanzi was silent for a long time and said, "Fourth Miss regrets it?" ”

She said this more than she spoke, and after she spoke, she suddenly subconsciously pressed her mouth, and her face was terrified.

Su Ruhui was amused by her appearance, and said softly: "When I was very young, my father taught me that there is no need to waste too much time on useless things, for example, regret it. ”

She squinted, looked at the window where Gan Ran left that day, remembered the past things she had gotten along with, and the depression in her eyes gradually turned soft, and chuckled, "And the future is unpredictable, people can only choose the one they think is the best one at the moment, who told me to grow up, look at it, Gan Ran is the best one?" ”

"There are too many benefits in this world, no one can take them all, I was born and a concubine, and I married the person I like, and I have been greatly favored by God." Su Ruhui closed her eyes, and when she opened them, she had become energetic, and said proudly, "No matter what happens in the future, I was born much better than eight or nine out of ten people in this world, so what's not to be satisfied with?" God has given me so many benefits, and if I still have a bad life, it will be too wasteful! ”

Nanzi was stunned, and then covered her mouth and chuckled: "The slave maid obeys the orders of the fourth lady!" ”

"Go and take care of these few people who are most likely to enter the East Palace." Su Ruhua took the pen and wrote a few lines on a peach note next to her, pursed her lips and said, "When I entered the palace as a guest, I came...... " After she finished writing, she put the pen back on the shelf, the door of the study was open, and she could see the bedroom outside the door when she turned her head.

In the midsummer of the 33rd year of Changtai, the wind blows from the far south, mighty and mighty, through thousands of mountains and rivers, Zhu Hu Chonglou, pounces into the inner room of Zhaonan Garden, the newly replaced lotus lotus color embroidered magpie perches on the plum branch, the silk tent of the metaphor of joy on the eyebrows is gently blowing, the orchid breath in the tent is soft, the ebony wood bed side is covered with gold and feet, the dresser by the window shines out of the room and the cool morning light in early autumn eight years ago is not much different.

It's just that eight years ago, when she left the Hou Mansion where she grew up and went to the unknowable deep palace, she was falling and cautious. Now guarding the spring frost and winter snow, you can see the spring light like water, to this time when the essence and yang grow, all things contend, under the window of the study, is facing a tree of pomegranates blooming scorching bright, thousands of brilliance.

——The pomegranate blossoms shine brightly in May, and the branches are full of seeds.
