Chapter 382: Don't ask where you came from
He Fangnian, the prefect of Pingyang, has been very anxious lately.
He learned from his colleagues in the DPRK and China that the commanders of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies had been ordered to come to Shanxi to inspect the administration of officials, but the exact date was unknown. He hadn't slept a single peaceful sleep for days, often with two smoky eyes until dawn.
He Fangnian is not a corrupt person, nor is he a lazy person, if you want to investigate the cause of his insomnia, it is all to make the Ruan family in Binh Duong Mansion make trouble.
After lunch, he was preparing to take a nap, only to hear the sound of hurried footsteps outside, He Fangnian looked hopeless, so he almost took off his belt and died on the spot.
The chief of the government didn't give him a chance, and before the people arrived, they had already shouted: "Lord Futai, avoid it, the uncle of Miss Ruan Jiasan is here!" ”
He Fangnian just wanted to move, and his brain was already running first.
Miss Ruan is the daughter of Princess Baozhen and the grandniece of the current emperor, so isn't her uncle King Chengping?
Chang Sui rushed in, and He Fangnian immediately grabbed his ear. "You idiot, then Miss Ruan San's uncle is King Chengping! Why don't you change into new clothes for me and go to meet them!? ”
After some tidying up, He Fangnian was neatly dressed and had just crossed the threshold, when he saw a man with a big belly and a round body walking under the sun, and he was about to bow down in a blink of an eye-
"Lord Futai, you have to be the master of my second girl."
Well? He Fangnian suddenly felt that this male voice was really familiar, and he couldn't help but look up quickly, where is the prince.
"Luo Dayou from the General's Restaurant?"
A fat figure walked over one by one, and said with a smile: "Lord Futai has a good memory, isn't it Luo Mou, huh...... Have you changed your clothes today? It's really beautiful. ”
He Fangnian threw up his sleeves and entered the lobby, and snorted at Chang Sui: "How did King Chengping become Miss Ruan's uncle?" ”
Chang Sui also knew that he had caused trouble by passing on the wrong words, and smiled at He Fangnian, so he asked Luo Dayou with a serious face: "I said that the family affairs of the Ruan family and the Xu family should not be interfered with by our adults, why are you still running here?" ”
Luo Dayou naturally knew that it was difficult for Lord Futai to cut off family affairs, but since the Xu family changed his marriage with the Ruan family in a daze, his niece Ruan Miaoyi's eyes were swollen from crying, and he pushed his third sister Ruan Miaoling into the water yesterday.
As an uncle, he doesn't care about this matter, but he is afraid that his niece will go astray because of this, where will there be a beautiful marriage to favor her in the future?
"Futai, the marriage between the eldest son of the Xu family and my niece was set when the two old ladies were alive, how can it be changed? What did his Xu family say, 'The one who wins the champion marries Miss Ruan San', isn't this an obvious intention to let the eldest prince marry the daughter of Princess Baozhen! ”
He Fangnian raised his eyes and asked, "So you think the Xu family is climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix?" ”
Luo Dayou did not shy away from saying: "Everyone in Pingyang knows that Xu Yuan, the second son of the Xu family, is a wreck, and he is different from the eldest son Xu Heng. With his strength, he won't even be able to earn the last place on the Dragon and Tiger list in the spring next year, so what kind of champion can he talk about? ”
He swallowed his saliva and continued: "If the eldest prince Xu Heng wins the champion and then marries the daughter of Princess Baozhen, which one of the courts will not help him. That's why he gave up on my niece and asked to marry the golden phoenix of the third lady instead! ”
He Fangnian took a few sharp breaths before suppressing the idea of wanting to leave the mansion.
"You've been doing business with your brother-in-law for years, why are you still so short-sighted. Is the Xu family, who has been hairpins for generations, the one who needs to climb the high branches, don't forget that Xu Chen is in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies! ”
The Governor's Office of the Five Armies, who is in charge of the military orders of the whole country, is an even more powerful existence than the military department that is in charge of the military and political power.
Luo Da has a slap on the head!
In the past few days, Miaoyi's girl has been nagging in her ear for a while, and she has forgotten about it. shouldn't believe Miaoyi's words, and said to listen to Lord Futai.
……
A letter was sent to the West Mansion where Miss Ruan Jiasan lived alone.
"Miss, look, it's a handwritten letter sent by the second miss's uncle."
After a while, I heard the maid ask: "There is also a set of elegant jewelry that is fashionable in Pingyang, but it is not as good as our workmanship." ”
Ruan Miaoling was holding a letter in her hand, and she smiled at the outside world when she heard the words. Because she inherited the beauty of her mother, Princess Baozhen, she was born with apricot eyes and delicate and cute, and her eyelashes flickered up and down, which seemed to be able to tug at people's heartstrings.
"No matter how good the jewelry in the world is, it is not as good as the royal family, you don't care about this, and you don't bring the letter to me to see."
Ruan Miaoling took the letter and looked at it, and the corners of her lips slowly curled. "He is still the same, he spoils the second sister to the bones, and even admits his mistakes for the second sister."
Q'er was puzzled, "Miss used to call him Uncle Luo, why did many titles change after changing the marriage from the Xu family?" ”
Ruan Miaoling folded Luo Dayou's letter, carefully put the letter she had read before into the box, and said, "He is the second sister's uncle, and my uncle is in the capital!" ”
When it comes to the uncle in the capital, the words of the child are like pouring beans into the bamboo tube, and he will come.
"The last time I saw the prince was when the young lady was ten years old, I don't know if the prince is fat or thin. The prince loves Miss as much as the old lady, if he knows that the second lady pushed you into the water yesterday, he will definitely go thousands of miles to Pingyang to settle accounts with her! ”
Ruan Miaoling jokingly stretched out her finger and poked her forehead and asked, "You girl has heard too much!" My uncle was also very sad in the capital, and he was not allowed to hear about such things. You have forgotten that the emperor's uncle ordered him never to leave Beijing, and if he is imprisoned for my sake, it will be my unfilial piety. ”
"Is the marriage between the young lady and the eldest son Xu really decided like this?"
Wen'er has seen the eldest son of the Xu family, who is not as handsome as the second son, and he has the momentum of being a high school champion when he reads, but it is a little reluctant to be the husband of the young lady.
Since the old man, the general of Zhennan, died in the south a year ago, the lady moved to Dafu Temple to eat fasting and chant Buddha, and only the young lady was left alone in the huge West Mansion.
Now I can't even make my own decisions about marriage, which is still the daughter who was favored by my parents in the past.
Compared with the maid's anxiety, Ruan Miaoling was very calm and said with a smile: "Who said I was going to marry that nerd?" The Xu family has more than one son. ”
"But the second son of Xu is a-" Wen'er was very anxious, she felt that she had suffered a loss when she married a nerd since she was a pampered young lady, not to mention that the second son of Xu was a well-known wreck.
Ruan Miaoling looked out the window and said with a smile: "What's the waste...... He also has times when he doesn't have a pocket. ”
Seven years later, when Ruan's family was beheaded, she cried and begged Xu Yuan to have the courage to intercede with his father, but Xu Yuan ruthlessly gave her a letter of resignation. At that time, maybe he also felt that he was a man, which was ridiculous and pathetic.
Seeing Ruan Miaoling smiling sweetly, Wen'er panicked. Should I go to Daifukuji Temple to report to my wife?
"Miss, think twice, Xu Ergongzi is a rotten piece of wood, it's useless to burn firewood!"
As he was talking, a little maid outside the door said: "Ask Sister Er, the rotten wood of the Xu family is here, and I will see the old lady at this moment." ”
Ruan Miaoling's hand shook and she looked stunned, "Why is it at this time-"
Wen'er had already opened the door and stuffed a letter to the little maid. "Send the letter to Uncle Luo, don't let the second lady see it."
The little maid smiled and said, "Don't worry, Sister Wen'er, the eldest son of the Xu family is also here." That kind of ordinary-looking nerd is only liked by the second lady, and she is meeting him privately at the moment. ”
I used to ask if I wanted to hear this, but when I heard Ruan Miaoling's words about marrying Xu Ergongzi, I couldn't be happy, and I urged the little girl to do something.
