Chapter Seventy-Four: Expedited

Whether Xu Yanzhu's intuition is accurate or not, there is no way to verify this matter at present.

However, because she learned the news today, the next day when the Fifth Princess, Xu Nuanwen, sent someone to pick up Xu Yanzhu to go to the Fifth Prince's Mansion to relax, and asked her if she needed help, Xu Yanzhu took the initiative to inform Xu Nuanwen of the matter.

"Auntie, I just came to the capital, and I don't know much about the Jiang family, and I only brought a cuihua to Beijing this time." Xu Yanzhu looked at Xu Nuanwen and spoke, and after thinking about it, she continued: "I want to ask my aunt to borrow two people to help me gain a firm foothold in the Jiang family." ”

Xu Nuanwen looks very much like Mrs. Xu, but she is much more delicate than Mrs. Xu, and her eyebrows and eyes are the same as Xu Shiqiu.

Although she couldn't leave the capital for so many years, because she was spoiled by the five princes, she looked like Xu Yanzhu's sister.

Hearing Xu Yanzhu's words, she first hooked the corner of her lower lip, and then said, "If you don't say it, my aunt will also arrange two helpers for you." As she spoke, Xu Nuanwen glanced at her head, and immediately two maidservants who were nearly thirty years old walked out.

"Peony and Begonia are from the palace Concubine Niangniang, and they are both high-grade female officials." Xu Nuanwen didn't lie to Xu Yanzhu, after seeing the surprise in Xu Yanzhu's eyes, she continued with a smile: "You don't need to worry, Peony and Begonia both understand what they should do. ”

As soon as Xu Nuanwen's words fell, Peony and Begonia immediately saluted her and Xu Yanzhu, without arrogantly not taking Xu Yanzhu in their eyes because they were from Concubine De's side.

Looking at the peony and begonia, Xu Yanzhu couldn't say that he didn't want them.

In the end, Xu Yanzhu could only nod to the two of them, and then called Cuihua to take the two of them to the side first to familiarize themselves with their own affairs.

After Peony and Begonia left, Xu Yanzhu couldn't wait to look at Xu Nuanwen, wondering why her aunt arranged it like this.

"Are you curious why your aunt did this?" Xu Nuanwen knew Xu Yanzhu's thoughts, and asked directly before she could speak.

"Yes, I don't understand why my aunt gave me both of them." After Xu Yanzhu said this, she thought for a while and continued: "Could it be that my aunt was also forced? ”

"No, the two of them came to the palace specially for you by my aunt." As soon as Xu Nuanwen spoke, Xu Yanzhu's eyes widened in shock.

Seeing Xu Yanzhu's shocked look, Xu Nuanwen sighed before continuing: "Yanzhu, our Xu family is different from the past, but the Jiang family has climbed up to the concubine.

Now in the palace, only Concubine De is barely the opponent of the concubine, and the ladies of the other palaces dare not directly oppose the concubine.

Although my aunt is the fifth princess, she is a junior after all, and she can't help you directly, so she went into the palace and begged Concubine De to ask her to select two female officials in her palace to help you.

With them here, even the Jiang family has to take care of Concubine De behind them, and they will not dare to embarrass you directly. ”

After saying this, Xu Nuanwen saw that Xu Yanzhu was still a little reluctant, raised her hand and pointed at her head before continuing: "Silly boy, if you accept these two people, it means that the Xu family still supports your uncle, and the concubine will only think that Concubine De values you."

Don't be angry, your grandmother has already written to me about this matter, and Xu Jiaru must really be involved in these things, and will only support your uncle, and will not vote for others. What you are going to do in Beijing this time, although your grandmother did not say it explicitly, but your aunt can guess.

With peony and begonia, Concubine De will also rest assured that the Xu family, and when you get married, your aunt will take you into the palace, and you will negotiate the conditions with Concubine De on behalf of the Xu family. No one else knows what happened back then, but Concubine De must have evidence in her hands.

Although the Xu family is different from the past, when the ten-year period of next year arrives, your uncle will enter Beijing as an official, your cousin will already marry the Hu family, and there will be King Duan, even if your third uncle is unwilling to return to Beijing, the Xu family will slowly get up by then.

Concubine De understands this, so she is willing to arrange two henchmen to help you. My aunt arranged them for you to protect yourself, and if you have your own affairs, you can naturally leave them to your henchmen to do.

As for my aunt, after learning that you were going to marry into the Jiang family, she bought and arranged a few people in the Jiang family, this is the list, and you will burn it after reading it. ”

After Xu Nuanwen finished saying this, Xu Yanzhu understood why her aunt had made some arrangements.

Thinking of her aunt's bright and dark arrangement, Xu Yanzhu looked at Xu Nuanwen with emotion and said, "Grandmother is really right, my aunt really loves me." As she spoke, Xu Yanzhu carefully put away the list sent by Xu Nuanwen, ready to read it when she went back, and she also rested her head on Xu Nuanwen's shoulder after collecting the list.

"Silly boy, you are your aunt's flesh and blood, how can your aunt not hurt you." Xu Nuanwen really felt sorry for Xu Yanzhu, thinking of her father and mother like her second brother and sister-in-law, she couldn't help sighing: "Yanzhu, no matter how much my aunt does, the next thing still depends on yourself, only when you are strong yourself, you are not afraid of anything."

As for the things of the year, don't worry, after you get married, your aunt will take you into the palace to see Concubine De, and you will make the attitude of the Xu family clear, Concubine De is reluctant to help the Xu family, and will definitely help you. ”

After saying this, Xu Yanzhu said that she would definitely make good use of the two female officials that Concubine De gave her, and Xu Nuanwen asked how Xu Yanzhu was preparing for marriage.

"On the day you get married, Ye Huan and Ye Shuo will come to give you a wedding, presumably with their two brothers here, the Jiang family will also have some scruples, and they don't dare to embarrass you too much."

As soon as Xu Nuanwen watched Xu Yanzhu finish saying this, Xu Yanzhu looked at her happily and said, "Then thank you aunt, there are two cousins here, and no one will dare to embarrass me." ”

After hearing Xu Yanzhu's words, Xu Nuanwen was not at ease, but still carefully inquired about her dowry.

After learning that Xu Yanzhu's dowry was transported from Xiahe Village and guarded by Xu Shiqiu's people, Xu Nuanwen was relieved.

"Jiang Han's matter, I will send someone to investigate, before the investigation is clear, you must remember not to act rashly."

"Auntie, don't worry, I'll be careful." Xu Yanzhu looked at Xu Nuanwen seriously after she opened her mouth and assured.

Seeing that Xu Yanzhu understood, Xu Nuanwen didn't continue to say anything.

Xu Yanzhu was moved by what Xu Nuanwen did for herself, and naturally mentioned this matter in the letter she wrote to Xu Shiqiu and Mrs. Xu.

After waiting for half a month later, after the Xu family in Xiahe Village received a few letters from Xu Yanzhu, Xu Shiqiu looked at the letters and thought for a long time before sighing.

"Xianggong, what embarrassing thing did Yanzhu say in the letter he wrote to you?" Dong Shu held her stomach and stared at Xu Shiqiu for a long time, and she didn't ask until Xu Shiqiu came back to her senses.

Hearing Dong Shu's inquiry, Xu Shiqiu instantly came back to his senses, looked at her and smiled, and then said: "It was Yanzhu who said something about her sister, and said that the pomegranate was finally eaten, and she missed the taste of the pomegranate very much." ”

Although Dong Shu is not smart, she is not stupid. She could see that Xianggong had deceived herself, but her brain couldn't figure out what Xianggong had deceived herself, so when Xu Shiqiu was staring at herself, she thought about it and didn't open her mouth in the end.

Xu Shiqiu could also see that Dong Shu guessed that he had something on his mind, but he couldn't think of a good way to do it for a while, so he didn't open his mouth to continue to ask about it.

"Xianggong, today is the day of Yanzhu's marriage, right?" Dong Shu was afraid that she had made a mistake, and after looking at Xu Shiqiu and confirming it, she continued: "I don't know what Yanzhu will do, whether she thinks about us, and whether the Jiang family embarrass her." ”

Hearing Dong Shu's words, Xu Shiqiu hurriedly looked at her and shook his head with a smile: "Didn't Yanzhu say it in his letter?" My sister arranged for Huan'er and Shuo'er to marry Yanzhu, and with their brothers here, who else would dare to embarrass Yanzhu. ”

After all, Ye Huan is the eldest son of the five princes, and Ye Shuo is also a famous royal gentleman, the most important thing is that Ye Shuo's temperament is liked by today's saints, and today's saints have praised in front of others more than once, 'The little two sons of the old five families are lively, not bad'.

Thinking of this, Xu Shiqiu was also glad that Ye Shuo understood in his heart that he didn't have the intention of competing with his eldest brother, otherwise just because of the saint's words, his brother-in-law's family would be uneasy.

Dong Shu didn't understand so many things, and after hearing Xu Shiqiu's words, she hurriedly glared at the crescent moon and said, "I haven't seen Huan'er, but Shuo'er's temperament is lively, and with him, I think Yanzhu will be happier." ”

"I'm afraid that I'm not only happy, Shuo'er also wrote me a letter a few days ago, saying that she wanted to teach Jiang Han a good lesson on the day Yanzhu got married. Although I wrote back to ask him to restrain himself, I am afraid that his temperament will not be easily obedient, not to mention that he has also pulled his eldest brother. ”

Dong Shu is right, Xu Yanzhu got married today, because Ye Shuo was there, she was indeed very happy.

Xu Shiqiu didn't guess wrong, Ye Shuo did not listen to him today, but under Ye Huan's persuasion, he still restrained a little.

Early in the morning, Ye Huan and Ye Shuo rode to Xu's house, ignoring the Jiang family's obstruction, and came directly to the courtyard where Xu Yanzhu was to be married in the backyard, and guarded the gate of the courtyard.

"Cousin Yanzhu, don't worry, with me and my eldest brother here, waiting for Jiang Han to come, I must embarrass him and let him know that the girl of the Xu family is not so easy to marry." After saying this, Ye Shuo also glanced at Xu Yanwei and Xu Yanlang, who were standing aside, and said with a disdainful expression: "Cousin Yanzhu, if your two younger brothers don't support you in the future, you will go to me and my eldest brother, and our two cousins will support you." ”

Hearing Ye Shuo's words, Xu Yanzhu, who had already been dressed in the room, couldn't smile bitterly, but he also knew that he was kind.

Not only the two of them are guarding here, but at the door of the front yard, there are also the heirs of several officials who have a very good relationship with Ye Shuo here.

The Jiang clan wanted to invite them to the side to rest, but they insisted: "Ye Shuo's cousin is our cousin, today my cousin is married, we must block the door, Second Madam Xu, don't worry." ”

"That's it, we were specially called by Ye Shuo to support my cousin, don't be embarrassed, Jiang Han's guy will never let him in."

"Yes, we have already discussed it, we must embarrass Jiang Han today, we can't let him marry his cousin so easily."

When Jiang heard their words, he thought of his nephew who was going to come to greet him later, and he didn't know what to say at all.

The few little Langjun in front of her are either rich or expensive, and she really can't be offended.

Just looking at the wooden sticks in their hands, they were worried about Jiang Han, who would come to greet them later.

Xu Yanzhu also quickly learned what happened before, and when she thought of what might happen later, she couldn't help but have a trace of anticipation.

And today's events, she will also write in detail in the letter, telling her grandmother, third uncle and third aunt who are far away in Xiahe Village.

Xu Shiqiu and Dong Shu both thought that Xu Yanzhu was busy with marriage and had not had time to write to them for at least a few days, but they didn't expect that at the beginning of November, Xu Yanzhu's letter still arrived in their hands at the agreed time.

"Xianggong, is it Yanzhu's letter?" Dong Shu looked at Xu Shiqiu expectantly with her belly for nearly seven months, waiting for Xu Shiqiu to pick out the letter that belonged to her.

Listening to the little lady's words, Xu Shiqiu glanced up at her, and after seeing the expectation in her eyes, he spoke: "Lady, you go and sit on the side first, and then send it to you after I find the letter that Yanzhu gave you." After saying this, Xu Shiqiu quickly glanced at the letter in his hand, and after seeing that it was written by Xu Yanzhu to himself, he hurriedly picked it up and gave it to Dong Shu, "This is written by Yanzhu to me, presumably the next letter is for the lady." ”

Xu Shiqiu guessed wrong in the end, Xu Yanzhu's letter was not a letter she wrote to Dong Shu, but a letter written by Ye Shuo to him.

On this letter, there are also three cinnabar dots, which represent the letter, urgent and especially important.
