Min Yanshi's head slammed, could it be that his life's event was decided?

"Childe, go in." The steward in front of the door said respectfully, "It's General Pingnan Houjin inside." ”

Min Yanshi calmed down, nodded, and walked into the door.

As soon as Jin Dongsheng saw him, he complimented him loudly: "Gongzi is really a talent, I have been in the capital these days, and I have seen countless princes and grandchildren, no one can compare with the eldest grandson of your mansion, the old man is so blessed, and Lord Min is so blessed." ”

The old man said to his grandson: "Your father and I married your cousin Chu Xia Xu to General Jin's only son, and we will get married in a few days. “

Min Yanshi's heart fell heavily back into his stomach, but the next moment, because his innocent cousin was not worth it, the poor child had no father and no mother, and he lived at home, so he was dismissed by his grandfather so easily.

Min Yanshi didn't listen to what he said after that, and finally Kim Dongsheng left, and he was called to him by his grandfather and father, saying that he was not very hospitable.

Min Yanshi was tired of hearing such a reproach, and he wouldn't even fluctuate his emotions for half a minute until his grandfather mentioned his marriage.

"Jin Dongsheng originally wanted to marry his daughter to you, and your father and I repeatedly excused ourselves to let him succeed, but we can't afford to offend this new favorite of the emperor, and a few girls in the family are in the boudoir, so they picked one of them to continue his son." The old man said, "After I retire in the coming year, you will also have to contact the Jin family more, and if you have more power, you will always have one more opponent." ”

"Yes." Min Yanshi responded expressionlessly.

At this time, I heard my father say: "There have been a lot of people who have come to propose marriage over the years, and your grandfather and I are not compatible. ”

The old man said: "But the princesses of the right age in the palace are all from low-grade concubines, and they are not as noble as the daughters of the princely family, so it is better not to marry." ”

Min Yanshi stood respectfully, silent, he had no right to choose his future, everything was subject to the arrangement.

The old Xiangye continued: "If Prince Sheng's father and son are really dead, there will be no hidden dangers in the imperial court from now on, with the emperor's deep affection for your aunt, you can please the emperor even more if you marry Yao Nian." ”

Min Yanshi raised his head suddenly: "Have you discussed this matter with your aunt?" ”

The old man coughed dryly, he was naturally disgusted by the eldest daughter, and he didn't say more than ten words over the years, but she couldn't nod her head in this matter, what matters is that the emperor is happy.

He said: "Your father and I will naturally arrange it, if outsiders ask about your marriage, you don't have to ask about it, just say that the family is already in Zhangluo." ”

But Min Yanshi asked again: "What if...... Are my uncle and father still alive? ”

The old man couldn't wait for his eldest son-in-law and grandson to turn into ashes, and said hatefully: "They are dead, you have to recognize this fact." ”

At the same time, in the Xinghua Hall of the Zhu family, the husband and wife discussed the matter of the old lady wanting to marry from the palace of Prince Sheng, Zhu Chengqian compromised, and persuaded his wife to enter the palace to ask the queen.

The eldest lady was forced to be anxious, and said with tears in her eyes: "Do you think that I was scolded by the queen not hard enough, and that I still don't provoke her to hate, this year, I have been in front of her, which time was happy, and which time was not blamed for entering the palace?" Even my brother and sister-in-law can come to accuse me, no, I was busy in your Zhujia family, and now I can't even go back to my mother's house, and you still come to pit me? ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "You listen to me after I finish speaking, you just tell the queen like this." ”

He taught his wife to tell the empress that he hoped that the future duchess would have a good background, and also in order to alleviate the recent rumors that the emperor did not pay attention to Kishu and intended to reduce military power.

The eldest lady will be suspicious: "Does this work?" If the emperor wants to abolish the military power, what does it have to do with where Yan Fuyi got married? ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "Naturally, I am sure that Min Cheng's status as the princess of Jizhou will not be shaken, don't forget, the military power is in her hands." ”

The eldest lady said disdainfully: "I'm really strange, why didn't the emperor take back the military power five years ago and willingly give it to a woman?" ”

Zhu Chengqian sighed: "That is the world won by Prince Sheng, every subordinate is willing to pay for him, if the emperor takes back everything at that time, Min Cheng's mother and daughter will have no support for the rest of their lives, and they will definitely rebel." In short, it's a long story, you do what I say to persuade the queen, the queen is smarter than you, and she will tell the emperor tactfully. ”

The eldest lady's eyes rolled faintly, and she cleared her throat and said, "Then I also have a condition." ”

Zhu Chengqian said: "You say yes." ”

The eldest lady's eyes were full of disgust: "After Yan Fuyi enters the door, no matter how my mother-in-law behaves, don't help you talk as a father-in-law." Don't ask your old lady and son to come to me as soon as you instigate it, you swear to promise me now, if you interfere, you will let Zhu Rong die a good death. ”

Zhu Chengqian said angrily: "I promise you, what swear and curse, why bother." It is natural for you to be a mother-in-law and teach your daughter-in-law a lesson, but you don't want to be unreasonable, don't forget that you still have a mother-in-law above you. ”

The eldest lady glanced at her husband, and secretly said in her heart: That also wants her to have a long life.

As soon as they finished talking about it, they reported in front of the door that the third prince had come home to ask for peace, and Zhu Chengqian immediately straightened his mood, welcomed him out, took his son to the study, and said something heartfelt about his marriage.

Zhu Rong has always respected and thanked his father for his nurturing grace, since his father is willing to accept the support and want to hold a grand wedding for him, he is naturally grateful.

As for the grandmother who had to marry from the palace, he didn't care, and he definitely didn't care.

But after leaving Xinghuatang and going back alone, I thought that in a few days, I would leave Beijing, and I would go all the way to pick up Fuyi.

Although his heart had already flown to Kishu, but when he met, he couldn't tell Fuyi what she had been looking forward to, and he couldn't tell her in person that Prince Katsu's son was still alive, and it was likely that even the prince was still in the world.

Walking through the Qingqiu Pavilion, Zhu Rong stopped, his father said that the feng shui here is good, and the construction will start tomorrow, and the Qingqiu Pavilion will be their new house, and Fuyi will be happy.

But at this moment, the family is really deserted, and he can't hear the laughter of his younger brothers and sisters for many days, and it is clear that his happy event is imminent, but the people he cares about are not happy.

Yunzhi for her mother's business, Zhu Rong still has a bottom in her heart, but her grandmother has said it a few times, Huizhi is sullen, Zhu Rong guesses that she should have found out what her own brother of a mother's compatriot is doing.

In his eyes, something worthy of pride and pride has become a heavy burden in his little sister's heart.

Walking further, they happened to meet Pingli after school and came to greet his grandmother, and the brothers saw each other from afar, but Pingli pretended not to see it and turned around to bypass.

Zhu Rong also went around to the road, Pingli looked back to check what he was doing, and then turned around, and saw his brother standing straight in front of him, he smiled awkwardly: "Brother......"

Zhu Rong asked, "What are you doing hiding from me?" ”

Pingli hurriedly said: "No, isn't this road close, the house is too big, and walking around every day is exhausting." ”

"You're going to say hello to your grandmother?"

"Hmm."

Zhu Rong stepped out of the way and said, "Then go." ”

Pingli cautiously walked in front of him, and was about to run away, when serious words came from behind him: "Does Huizhi know something?" The third aunt has a big belly, you should be careful, don't show your feet again, don't frighten the third aunt. ”

Pingli stood still and didn't speak, and when he calmed down, he wanted to refute his brother again, but when he turned around, his brother was gone.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and was full of unconvinced, and muttered: "I saved you that night, that guy didn't die, you were accused of going to the emperor, and you had the intention to let go of the world, and the whole family was finished with you." ”

On this day and night, Zhu Rong received a secret letter from the palace, the emperor no longer pursued Princess Min, he didn't have to be busy, and the next day the princess left the palace, and the old lady came to the door in person to discuss the marriage of her grandson.

Zhu Rong packed his luggage and prepared to leave Beijing, on the day of leaving, the family had already started construction, the Qingqiu Pavilion would be renovated inside and out, and his father invited hundreds of craftsmen to start work at the same time, so it must be completed before July 17.

When I left home, I came to say goodbye to my grandmother, and the old lady smiled: "This time I will come back again, but I will come in pairs, be careful on the road, don't be in a hurry, on the way back, take good care of Fuyi." ”

Zhu Rong said: "I want to calculate the date, meet my aunt and her party on the way back, and give Yun'er a surprise." ”

The old lady said, "It's good, but don't be in a hurry, don't be tired of my granddaughter-in-law." ”

Zhu Rong smiled: "In front of you in the future, there is only help, and there is no more me." ”

The old lady said angrily: "You have a daughter-in-law who is in pain, what else do you want me to do as an old grandmother?" Don't be poor, hurry up and get on the road, the weather is getting colder and colder as you go north, be sure to add clothes, and don't drink unclean water. ”

Let's say that Zhu Rong's trip was not only to pick up the help to return to Beijing, but also the important task assigned by the emperor, so after leaving home, he soon joined several other people outside the city gate.

They will go separately to find out the whereabouts of Prince Sheng's father and son, but after the son Xiang Qi left the capital, it was as if he had disappeared from the world, and there was no trace.

On the day of Zhu Rong's departure, the Kishu Yan family received another holy decree, this time even the date of marriage was set, but the holy decree did not mention that Zhu Rong would come to greet the bride in person.

July 17 married, counting the days on the road, Fuyi will leave Kishu in ten days, Mrs. Yan at this moment, suddenly felt the sadness of parting, her daughter is gone, and she will live in the capital for a lifetime.

In the evening of that day, Fuyi came out of his father's study, asked his mother to get a smock for his father, pushed the door into the bedroom, but saw his mother in a hurry to wipe her tears.
