Two hundred and eighteen: Worried
With Su Yao's character, if he annoys him, he will not be out of sight and out of mind, and will be sent directly to Zhuangzi to meditate, how can he still be in the house?
That is, he was afraid that she would cause trouble or run out, so Su Yao could only leave her in the house.
Su Qingyao and Ding Yi's marriage was finalized in the middle of summer.
Su Ying'an also has a good family business, which Su Yao and Su Hui personally went to find, although Su Ying'an's family is in business, but he has been on the list of merits, so there will be some good girls who are willing to marry him.
I heard that the girl this time is the daughter of a seven-grade civil official family, and her appearance is not outstanding, but she is beautiful and lovely, Su Yingan thinks she is good for the first time.
Fang Lin persuaded him for a long time, so that if he became a relative, he would stop running around, live in peace, get a good reputation, and have children in the future.
Every time Su Ying'an agreed, but he should go, but this time it was different.
He said to Fang Lin that if he really became a parent, then he would not leave, if he really couldn't hold back, then he would go out for a walk in half a year, and he would be near Xunjing without going far, and Fang Lin was relieved and relieved.
The girl's family name is Yuan, called Yuan Qiuhuan, and when she heard her name, she knew that she was a gentle and elegant person, and she was indeed like that when she met.
Several generations of the Yuan family are courtiers, although the official position is not high, but it is better to be innocent and honest, and the emperor will take special care of and trust them Yuan family.
Su Hui does not have a half-official position, and the position of a businessman is low, so he is not worthy of the Yuan family, but fortunately, Su Ying'an is out, and Su Hui's eldest brother Su Yao is an official of the imperial court, so the Yuan family can marry their daughter to the Su family with peace of mind.
In the blink of an eye, the two sons and daughters of Su Hui's family were all married, Su Qingyao was in the middle of summer, and Su Yingan was in early autumn.
In the past few days, Su Yunyao rarely goes out, only occasionally goes to Su Yingkuan's new house to sit and sit with He Nianning, or to walk on the street with He Nianning Sheng Guizhi, anyway, try not to be alone, even if someone wants to beat her idea, it is not easy.
But on this day, she met King Heng.
To be precise, it was King Heng who had been waiting for her.
The restaurant Xianwei Zhai introduced by Bai Chuheng tastes very good, but the place is a little remote, and the taste of the recipe in it is not much worse than that of Ningweilou, Su Yunyao shared this place with He Nianning and them.
Today, it is He Nianning, Su Yunyao, Su Moyao, and Su Wanyao who went to Xianwei Zhai for dinner, and Sheng Guizhi was originally going to come, but Qin Manliu and Cheng Huaiyuan were going back to Yangzhou today, and it was not good for her as a daughter-in-law not to send them off.
And because Su Jinyao is about to get married, she is being taught the rules by Kang Jinglan and Qin Manhuai at home at this time.
"I want a crucian carp and radish soup, crab roe buns with some crab roe meat, braised hoof soup with more sauce, and tomato sauce lotus root slices and minced meat pancakes." Su Yunyao briefly said a few dishes that she often eats.
As soon as the words fell, a person walked downstairs, "I heard that the eleventh girl of the Su family likes to come here to eat, and now this king will come to taste it, and it tastes really good." ”
"His Royal Highness King Heng."
King Heng waved his hand, "No courtesy." ”
He looked at Su Yunyao carefully, this time it was very clear, but there seemed to be a trace of helplessness and boredom in her eyes.
No wonder it was the girl Bai Chuheng liked, and she must hate herself for helping Bai Chuheng wholeheartedly. King Heng sneered in his heart, he is the prince, the emperor's own son, who he wants to marry is not a matter of one word? The girl in front of her resists herself so much at this time, and in the end, she has to be obediently impressed by her identity?
"I heard that Miss Su has a close relationship with the eldest son of the Dingguo Mansion, but is this really the case?" King Heng asked.
Su Yunyao's eyelids jumped, and she secretly screamed in her heart.
She admits not to this matter, and she does not admit it, since King Heng can ask this, then she naturally understands, she doesn't admit that it is not deliberately deceiving people? But if she admits it, firstly, she has not yet reached the end of the day, and it will not sound good after all, and she will be listened to by someone with a heart, and she doesn't know how ugly the words can be said, and then the entire Su family will have to be affected, and secondly, King Heng and Bai Chuheng are absolutely hostile, King Heng is bent on bringing down the prince, and Bai Chuheng is bent on being the prince, which can be regarded as the prince's right and left hand, if King Heng really wants to move the prince, it can only get rid of Bai Chuheng first.
The stakes of the matter were simply passed in her heart, and Su Yunyao replied respectfully, "His Royal Highness the King of Huiheng, the courtiers do know the prince of the Dingguo Mansion, but they don't have a close relationship, they just usually go out to play and eat, and the courtiers appreciate Bai Gongzi very much, especially Bai Ergongzi, who paints a good hand, and the eldest prince is upright, which makes the courtiers admire." ”
Originally, she asked about her and Bai Chuheng, but she skillfully brought Bai Chuheng, it seems that she is really a smart girl.
King Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that Bai Chuheng really had a good eye, although he couldn't see the official position of the Su family in his eyes at all, but this girl's mind and vision were not low, and she was smart and good at investigation, if she could go to her side for her own use, it would be a good thing.
"But how did this king hear that you and the eldest prince Bai have been married for life?"
Hearing this, several people were stunned, and a drop of cold sweat broke out on Su Wanyao's frightened forehead.
"Back to Your Highness, the marriage of the courtiers is naturally to listen to the words of the matchmaker at the behest of their parents, and they will not rebel against their father, mother and anyone who have made a private agreement for life, please don't misunderstand Your Highness, you don't have to spread it and ruin the reputation of the courtiers."
"Good, good!" King Heng looked at her with a little more appreciation, although he knew that she was dealing with herself, but he was still happy for this, and continued to say, "You say this, this king has a bottom in his heart, in fact, the eldest prince of the Bai family is not suitable for you, I heard that he raised two rooms outside the capital, this matter is not known to many people, but it was inadvertently seen by the king's entourage, seeing that you are very suitable for the eyes of this king, I think you are desperate to pounce on the white prince, worried that your feelings will be in vain. ”
Su Yunyao bowed her head slightly, "Your Highness Xie cares." ”
"Add a few more dishes to this table, this king will use it at this table, so the table will be withdrawn."
Which prince doesn't dare to listen to what he says? Even if Su Yunyao wanted to refuse, there was no way, King Heng's dead face could only be said to be more than Bai Chuheng's.
At the same time, Su Yunyao somewhat guessed what King Heng meant by separating her from Bai Chuheng, either because he wanted to disintegrate the people and relationships around Bai Chuheng, or because he wanted to accept himself as a concubine, and similarly, it was also for him.
But when she came out of a small family, except for the ability of her grandfather's family, there was nothing that King Heng had to deliberately woo, and Su Yunyao immediately vetoed the idea of accepting her as a concubine.
It may be that King Heng is worried that she and Bai Chuheng will be together, and when the Su family, the Qin family, and the Bai family join forces, he will have a hard time at that time.
This idea made Su Yunyao somewhat agree.
Eating at the same table with the royal people pays attention to food without saying a word, and no one really speaks when eating, but He Nianning will occasionally glance at King Heng, and the disgust and disgust in his eyes can't be hidden.
Su Yunyao glanced at her and asked her to restrain herself slightly, and when she had finished eating, she immediately left Xianwei Zhai with a few sisters and sisters-in-law under the pretext that she was not feeling well.
Su Wanyao was still a little frightened at this time, patted her chest and said, "I don't dare to eat just now, His Royal Highness King Heng is too scary!" ”
"Be quiet." Su Yunyao lifted the carriage's room and looked back, but she didn't see anyone following the carriage before she breathed a sigh of relief, "Talking about King Heng in the imperial capital, I'm afraid that even if you have a few lives, it won't be enough to kill." ”
Hearing this, Su Wanyao covered her mouth with palpitations.
Su Moyao asked, "What he said just now is true?" If Little Master Bai really loses you like that, I have to ask him for an explanation! ”
"You can't understand such a simple discord meter?" He Nianning comforted, "Don't worry, his character is upright, since he said that he will not live up to his eleventh sister, he will not lose, it is common for men to have three wives and four concubines, and no one wants him to only guard one mother-in-law, but didn't he also swear that as long as the eleventh sister is one, it will be done?" He didn't really need to say that. ”
Hearing this, Su Moyao breathed a sigh of relief.
Back at the Su family, Su Yunyao immediately asked Lisheng to go to the Dingguo Mansion in person with the note she had just written, and informed Bai Chuheng of the matter of Fang Cai's presence in Xianwei Zhai.
Bai Chusui was painting a cluster of budding flowers, but when he saw his brother with a sad face, like someone who had angered him, he crumpled the paper in his hand into a ball and threw it away, and after throwing it away, he picked it up and laid it out.
"What's wrong, big brother? The note Su Shiyi gave you made you so angry for the first time. ”
"How can I not be angry." Bai Chuheng frowned slightly, "King Heng actually hit Su Shiyi's head with the idea, too much!" ”
"What?" Bai Chusui was a little unconvinced, took the note and looked at it, "Not necessarily, it may be to deal with you." ”
"Still don't understand? It was to deal with me that he had the idea of fighting Su Eleven. Bai Chuheng took a deep breath, "There must be an explanation for this matter, I am afraid that King Heng will be unfavorable to the Su family, and something will come to me, but if he doesn't let Su Shiyi have a good time, then I will not let him have a good time!" ”
In the afternoon of the same day, he came to Su's house.
Su Yao sent Qiu Li to personally welcome Bai Chuheng in.
"I don't know what the little grandfather is doing today?" Su Yao asked.
How he looks at Bai Chuheng now, after all, this person is his future son-in-law.
"Master Su, I'm here today for one thing." Bai Chuheng didn't hide it, and directly said the worry in his heart, "You also know that King Heng and the prince have been at odds for many years, and they want the prince to step down, before the first queen funeral and the prince's poisoning are estimated to be related to him, and now he has hit your daughter with his idea, there must be nothing good, I'm worried... It's all because of me, I'm sorry Master Su, but if King Heng comes to make any requests, you must not agree, I really like your daughter, please fulfill it! ”
