Chapter 104: Crowd Plotting (3)

Mrs. Zhang still didn't forget to want Zhang Qi to enter the palace, so she thought about delaying the matter for a while, and when the time came, she begged Jinran to enter the palace and said a few words, and when the will to enter the palace came down, even if the old lady of the Zhang family was unhappy, it would be too late.

The second lady of the Zhang family laughed when she heard this, she was happy alone for a long time after returning to the yard yesterday, she has always been at odds with her own concubine, and she saw her eat deflated yesterday and even called the sky with eyes, so as soon as Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, she couldn't wait to open her mouth next to her: "Mother, don't you know, our sister Qi cried yesterday but it was sad, she was older, and it stands to reason that she can't catch up with this draft, but my sister-in-law ....... her."

The second lady of the Zhang family had the intention to smear her sister-in-law, and now she even added fuel and vinegar to describe what Zhang Qi said yesterday, and wiped her tears when she said that she was emotional.

Now everyone can see that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Zhang family, the eldest lady of the Zhang family wants to send her daughter to the palace, but the old lady of the Zhang family wants to marry her granddaughter to the Sheng family, and the two have not communicated in advance.

Mrs. Zhang Jiada was beaten by Zhang Qi yesterday, but she did not repent at all. And the old lady of the Zhang family thought that her granddaughter did such a thing last night, there were so many people present at the time, this Zhang Qi's reputation couldn't be saved, and he had such a name when he entered the palace to be elected, and Jin Ran would definitely be angry for his brother, and it was not certain that he could not be elected. It's better to marry Zhang Qi to the Sheng family like this.

The old lady of the Zhang family didn't think that her daughter-in-law would have such a mind, and she dared to disobey herself, she was about to speak with a calm face, but she saw a little maid running in outside the door: "Madam, madam, there are a few fathers-in-law in the palace outside the door, saying that they are here to announce the decree!" ”

This little girl's words were said to Zhang, Zhang quickly stood up, she felt a little strange in her heart, after all, the Sheng family did not make any moves in the court, how could she pass on her will in a good manner?

Jin Ran stood beside his mother and vaguely pulled his mother's hand, Zhang felt his daughter's movements, but he was not so anxious.

For a while, everyone didn't have the heart to be busy with Zhang Qi's affairs, Zhang's family was busy ordering people to set up incense cases and so on, and she and Jin Ran also changed their clothes and went out.

The old man who came outside the door to announce the decree was a familiar face, he had not come to the Sheng family to announce the decree before, and today he was even more smiling, and the folds on his face were unfolded: "Mrs. Sheng, congratulations, your family is really happy today." ”

Seeing that the Zhang family was puzzled and did not sell the guanzi, he trembled and unfolded the holy decree, and Jinran Zhang and the others hurriedly knelt down to accept the decree.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said: I heard that Sheng Jinyi, the son of Sheng Ning, is outstanding, Zhilan Yushu, skilled and generous. The queen and I were very happy to hear about it. Today, my eldest daughter, Princess Ming'an, is fifteen years old, and when she is suitable for marriage, she should choose a virtuous son-in-law and a match. Sheng family Jinyi character is precious, dignified, and there is no family, and the princess marriage match can be called made in heaven, for the beauty of the beauty, the princess of Ming'an is descended Sheng Jinyi, all etiquette by the Ministry of Rites Shangshu and Qin Tianjian to discuss the descendants of the posterity. The proclamation is at home and abroad, and the salty envoy hears it. Chin this. ”

The old man's tone was serious, and after announcing the will, he hurriedly walked a few steps, helped the Zhang family up, he solemnly handed over the holy decree to the Zhang family, and said with a smile: "Originally, this will should have been announced to Young Master Jinyi, but the old slave heard that this Young Master Sheng Jinyi suffered some sins yesterday, and his body was not good. And the masters in the palace also told not to let Young Master Sheng Jinyi tired. ”

After speaking, the old man seemed to inadvertently glance at the Zhang family behind Jin Ran, and he said worriedly: "Mrs. Sheng, you have to take care of the affairs of this house." Otherwise, the emperor will not be at ease marrying the princess. ”

Zhang's feelings between her son and Princess Ming'an are only a little felt, she is worried about how to make it clear to the people of the Zhang family, now there is such a timely rain, she can't help but be overjoyed: "I understand my father-in-law's words, this trip is really annoying father-in-law, such a day also came out to announce the decree, father-in-law, come in and drink a few cups of tea before leaving." ”

The old man did not shirk, now the Sheng family is different from the past, not only the young lady in the mansion was named the county lord, and married the family of Fang Guifei in the palace, and now the little master in the mansion has also become a concubine, and it is also necessary for him to take the opportunity to get close to the Sheng family.

The Zhang family hurriedly sent someone out of the lobby, and she took Jin Ran and the father-in-law to talk and laugh together, but the Zhang family behind her was pale.

Especially the old lady of the Zhang family, she now understands that her wishful thinking has failed, and she is just about to make a difficulty, and the holy decree has arrived, where will there be such a coincidence? She thought of what her mother-in-law told her that Princess Ming'an had left in a hurry early in the morning, and her face couldn't help but look even more ugly. She is also the old lady of the Zhang family, what tricks have you not seen? This decree is for the purpose of gagning oneself.

The old lady of the Zhang family remembered the words she had just said that slandered Sheng Jinyi's beloved, she really regretted it, if she had known that the person Sheng Jinyi was happy with was Princess Naming'an, she would not have said that kind of thing anyway. After all, now that the family is weak, she doesn't dare to provoke the royal family at will.

The old lady of the Zhang family secretly speculated, and she glanced at Jin Ran, who was walking in front of her, smiling and smiling: The relationship between Princess Ming'an and Jin Ran has always been excellent, and Jin Ran ....... Do you know about this marriage?

The old man drank a few cups of tea and said goodbye, he touched the purse in his sleeve and smiled incomprehensibly, he had just opened it to see, the purse was a jade jade bracelet with excellent color, not to mention a thousand taels, there are not many people like the Sheng family who know the current affairs, and the old man also likes to intersect with such people. He secretly made up his mind that when he came back and entered the palace, he must say a few more good words for the Sheng family.

As soon as the will came, Rao is Mrs. Zhang's calculations were in vain. She married into the Zhang family at the age of sixteen to fill the house, and her husband did not have other children at that time, but after so many years, those children have already been eliminated by her one by one, and such scheming and means will only be more proficient at such an age, but the old lady of the Zhang family did not expect that her granddaughter would put herself together today.

She pursed her lips tightly, glanced at her eldest daughter-in-law who couldn't suppress her joy there, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, even if Zhang Qi couldn't enter the door of the Sheng family, Zhang Qi probably couldn't be selected to participate in the draft, and this Princess Ming'an was enough for her to drink a pot.

After the old man left, the group returned to the room just now, this time when they came back, Zhang was not as worried as just now, she calmly picked up the tea bowl in her hand and drank tea.

The old lady of the Zhang family understood that the general trend was gone, so she simply didn't say anything, and sat on the Taishi chair next to her and watched her eldest daughter-in-law jump up and down there.

I saw Mrs. Zhang jumping up from the chair with a smile, and she took a few quick steps in front of Zhang: "Hey sister, I know that our Jinyi is blessed, thanks to what Zhang Qi's dead girl did not succeed, otherwise, wouldn't it delay a good marriage?" ”

Zhang said lukewarmly: "This is also thanks to your family Zhang Qi to do such a thing, otherwise the palace would not have issued an edict in such a panic, after all, I don't know what someone has done at night." ”

Mrs. Zhang didn't seem to be able to hear Zhang's irony, she leaned over and smiled: "Yes, then our Zhang Qi has to be the matchmaker between Jinyi and Princess Ming'an!" She laughed as she spoke.

Jin Ran was amazed at the cheekiness of his eldest aunt.

Mrs. Zhang was annoyed when she saw that no one answered, but she didn't dare to show it, so she could only curse in her heart.

The Zhang family didn't bother to entangle with these people, anyway, by now, his Jinyi had been engaged to Princess Ming'an, and it was impossible for Zhang Qi to marry in again even if he used all kinds of schemes. She didn't want to entangle with these people anymore, so she sent the guest away: "It's not too early at this time, there are a lot of things in this Sheng family, so I'll go first." ”

After speaking, she ignored the eldest lady of the Zhang family, who was still with her mouth open, and glanced at Jin Ran.

Jin Ran nodded knowingly: "Mother, then you can go first." She said to the unwilling Mrs. Zhang: "Auntie, it's not too early at this time, you let the girls of the Zhang family come to me as soon as possible to pick out the clothes. ”

The second lady of the Zhang family agreed first despite her sister-in-law's ugly face: "Then it's troublesome, I'll urge Zhang Zi and a few of them to go to your courtyard." ”

After speaking, she ignored the resentful gaze that Mrs. Zhang secretly stole and walked out with a smile.

Jin Ran went back to her courtyard and drank a big bowl of soup before she recovered, she was arguing and thanking this morning, but she was really tired.

She reached out and picked up the fabrics she had originally piled on the table for Fang Tianji, she was a little hesitant, she knew how many catties and taels her level was, if she really let her make clothes, she was still worried that her craftsmanship would not be good.

Li Ying couldn't help but smile when she looked at Jin Ran on the side: "Miss, don't worry, our shop invites a famous embroidery girl in Kyoto, and this embroidery girl has always taught the ladies to embroider and make clothes in the major families, because the draft cut out to help make skirts." After a while, when the embroidery girl arrives, why don't you go to her for advice? You can't do anything behind closed doors. ”

Jin Ran was helpless when he heard Li Ying's words: "Then I can only do as you say, at most, I have made a purse and a sole, and I really haven't made any complete sets of clothes, I guess if I do it myself in a while, I will have to waste some good materials." ”

After Jin Ran finished speaking, he put the fabric on the table: "I'll wait for the embroidery girl to arrive." ”
