It's not that he's afraid that he's not good for his daughter, Sheng Qian is naturally not afraid of this.

His Majesty gave the marriage, there is a royal guarantee, and Guan Ping is in such a position now, and the relationship between the two families is involved, I am afraid that he will do his best to make his daughter happy, so as to complete this marriage and preserve the relationship between the two families. It's just - he doesn't think it's appropriate, if Guan Ping is the moon in the sky, cold and silent.

But what he wants to find for his daughter is a husband who can pamper her, not such a high-ranking character. Sheng Qian wanted to say more, and Emperor Wei said again, "Or do you think there is something wrong with Guan Ping?" He looked at Sheng Qian again, and said sincerely, "Squire, I advise you to think about your daughter, but who is more suitable than Guan Ping in this family?" ”

Emperor Wei's words have a deep meaning.

He is a lonely minister, and the family is not suitable. He chose Liu Zhiran in his heart, but now Emperor Wei has the intention of giving marriage, and it is not appropriate to talk about the side, besides-it seems to be as Emperor Wei said, Guan Ping is a person in the family, and he is a person who can be trusted, "Your Majesty, marriage is a major event, and the minister's wish for his daughter to be happy in the future." ”

Emperor Wei glanced at Sheng Qian, like Sheng Guogong, this family was all stones in the pit, smelly and hard.

——

Sheng Mingzhu also heard the conversation between the two from inside the screen, and looked at Guan Ping, but he didn't speak.

After a while, the maid came back, only knelt beside Sheng Mingzhu, and whispered to her, "Your Majesty called you out-" Guan Ping was holding a cup of tea in his hand, his eyebrows and eyes were steaming with tea, he was already handsome, and now he was close, as if he was really perfect. Sheng Mingzhu used to feel very far away, but now-

"Your Majesty called you." Guan Ping raised his eyes to look at her.

Sheng Mingzhu got up from his original position and went out of the room again. Emperor Wei was still seated, and Sheng Qian glanced at her. Sheng Mingzhu saluted Emperor Wei, and Emperor Wei looked at the people below him—they looked very well-behaved and very white, and only spoke after a while, "Did you hear what I just said?" ”

"The courtiers heard." Sheng Mingzhu nodded.

"What do you think of Guan Ping?" As if he was chatting with someone, Emperor Wei sat on the chair and played with the wrench in his hand, "After all, it is a major event in your life, so you don't have to worry about me." ”

She hung her head, "Your Majesty's marriage is a grace from heaven, and the governor is the dragon and phoenix among people, why don't you want to." Sheng Mingzhu gently straightened the hem of her skirt and knelt down again, "The courtiers thank Your Majesty for your grace." ”

Emperor Wei stroked his palms and laughed, "Sheng Aiqing, so you don't have anything to say?" ”

Sheng Qian hung his head and arched his hand. As if solving a big problem in his heart, Emperor Wei's expression was unexpectedly enthusiastic, he picked up the cup in his hand, and put it down after a while, "Wang Fu, Wang Fu-" shouted a few words, and Wang Fucai, who was waiting outside the garden, hurriedly ran in and knelt down, "Your Majesty, the slave and maid obey the order." ”

Emperor Wei said, "You go and let Qin Tian supervise it, what are the good days this year-" patted his head again, looking at the girl standing on the stage now, how she looked at how well-behaved, "The queen always told me before that she liked you and wanted to accept you as a righteous daughter, but I forgot it several times." Now that you're in charge of the queen, you won't want to, right? ”

Sheng Mingzhu said respectfully, "It's the honor of a courtier." ”

——

Sheng Qian and Sheng Mingzhu entered the palace at lunchtime, and when it came to night, the holy decree came back, not a holy decree for marriage, but a decree for the queen to accept Sheng Mingzhu as a righteous daughter and give the county lord, Ruan Shi was stunned, Sheng Feifei glared at her on the side, and quickly entered the house.

"What now?" The silk handkerchief in Sheng Feifei's hand was stirred up by her, "That Sheng Mingzhu is now the county lord, what if she doesn't marry Liu Er and tells the story of that day?" ”

Ruan Shi said, "She doesn't dare, and the old lady won't let her say it." ”

One is prosperous, one is lost, as long as she is under the roof of the Sheng family, she will not dare. After all, Sheng Feifei is the daughter of the Sheng family, and what happened to her smeared the face of the Sheng family. Sheng Feifei is now thinking about her own marriage - the Ruan family said that it was good, and when the time comes, she will have a big event for her to marry.

But now the money situation in Ruan's hands Sheng Feifei couldn't be clearer, "In the past, I advised you to follow your uncle less to do those businesses, but you won't, and now I have no money to return." I don't care, if you don't have a charter before I get married, I'll go tell my grandmother and ask her to prepare for my marriage. ”

Ruan was busy coaxing her, and the mother and daughter were talking, but the gatehouse outside the house came in.

Cuizhu reported, Sheng Feifei's eyes were still red, the porter was outside, and she was holding a prayer post, "Second Miss, it was the greeting post handed over by the princess lord of the princess's mansion, saying that the second lady was invited to the princess's mansion for a small banquet." ”

Sheng Feifei got up from her seat in surprise, and walked to the gatehouse to take a look, and the payment was Jiangzi. Sure enough, it's Jiang Runyan? How could she suddenly look for her, Sheng Feifei had a headache recently and didn't want to go, but some people who had always wanted to catch up with her in the past suddenly began to communicate with her at this moment, even if she wanted to refuse to go, she still took the post.

"Prepare my clothes for me in a while, and I'll go to the princess's mansion for a banquet in the evening."

Wipe the tears off his face, "Cuizhu, put makeup on me." ”

Jiang Runyan was entertaining guests in the lakeside courtyard at home, swaying in the starry night. Sheng Feifei came from a distance with her maidservant, a person who is about to get married, during this time, Sheng Feifei always likes some pink clothes, her dress is eighty percent the same as the dress that Sheng Mingzhu participated in the poetry meeting for the first time in Beijing, Jiang Runyan looked up.

Sheng Feifei had already arrived at the small pavilion and saluted Jiang Run.

Then he knelt down opposite her in the service of the maidservant. Jiang Runyan was still recalling that at the beginning, Sheng Feifei asked her for a long time and didn't respond, her face was quite embarrassed, and the maid next to her reminded her county lord a little, Jiang Runyan woke up quickly, smiled, and only reached out to pinch a long-spouted pot with a silver handle.

Under the moonlight poured some silky white liquid, "This is the wine that the Tuoba nobles used to like to drink, different from the wine of the Han people, strong and sweet—but it is slowly being discarded," Jiang Runyan said.

Sheng Feifei had never drunk this before, and only tasted it slightly, frowning slightly. Looking at Jiang Runyan again, she drank the wine in her cup, "As the daughter of the Sheng family, you are just like this wine." It is not as strong as liquor, but not as sweet as wine, and it is tasteless to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it. ”

Sheng Feifei never expected her to say such a thing, "If the county lord wants me to say this, then I will listen to it and leave." As he spoke, he got up from his position.

Jiang Runyan raised his head and looked at her appearance of daring to be angry and not daring to speak, "Second Miss Sheng, are you about to get married?" ”

"So what?"

"I learned today that Your Majesty has conferred Sheng Mingzhu as the county lord."

Sheng Feifei said, "There are more than 120 county lords in Dawei, and after all the meritorious heroes, it is common for them to be crowned county lords. Jiang Runyan looked at her and continued, "I also heard that Your Majesty gave Sheng Mingzhu a good marriage - if you marry her one after the other, you are the county lord, what are you, do you say that you are tasteless and it is a pity to abandon it?" ”

Sheng Feifei looked back at her, "The county lord invited me here today, what the hell is going on?" ”

"I want you to do me a favor", Jiang Runyan looked up and looked at her with a smile, the hairpin flowers on her sideburns shimmered slightly in the night, "I know you don't like Sheng Mingzhu, and you don't need to do anything else-" She knocked on the table, and a maid respectfully walked slowly from the side of the corridor, her body slender.

"I don't like Sheng Mingzhu either," she said, "Don't you want her to marry Liu Er?" I can do you a favor, you just have to take her. ”

Sheng Feifei glanced at the maid, with a cold temperament - as if she had come out of the barracks.

——

Emperor Wei's marriage did not come to the fore, but it was the consideration of Sheng Qian's father. My daughter has been in a lot of peach incidents these days, and this has just left Liu Er, and he gave other marriages, which will inevitably make others speculate, so he just went home and told people close to him.

But the marriage is decided. After Guan Ping came back from the palace, Steward Zheng was already busy putting up lights for the Guan Mansion, and it was easy to look forward to the happy event that had been waiting for so many years.

The affairs of the household department are not over yet, and Sheng Qian has not yet taken office in Zhongshu Province. Liu Zhiran is no longer the former petty official of the household department, since he heard that His Majesty summoned Sheng Mingzhu and Sheng Qian into the palace, he has been waiting in the household department, today he always feels a little uneasy in his heart, until the night, I saw Sheng Qian to the household department, and the light on the table just turned on.

"Grand Man".

Sheng Qian looked up, the night was very dark, and Liu Zhiran was carrying a lantern outside. He rubbed his forehead slightly to wake up, "So, it's so late, if you don't go home, is there anything unfinished?" ”

Liu Zhiran put the lantern outside the door and stepped into the door by himself. He closed the door again, and then turned around and bowed his hand to Sheng Qian, and he didn't call Sheng Daren, "The student has been taken care of by the teacher since he joined the school, and according to the rules, you should be called a teacher." ”

Sheng Qian knew something he wanted to say, "Zhiran ......"

"Teacher, a few days ago, you asked the students to go to Zhenguo Temple to pick up the third lady and return home, but you didn't understand her meaning at that time, and you were afraid of misunderstanding the teacher's intentions. Thinking about it, but now I still want to ......" Liu Zhiran's words of marriage and before he could say it, Sheng Qian said, "Today, Your Majesty summoned me to the palace with Mingzhu, and has already given her a marriage." ”

Liu Zhiran stayed where he was, and he hadn't reacted yet.

Sheng Qian came out of the case and smiled helplessly, "I originally intended to let you be my son-in-law, kiss and kiss." It's a pity that we don't have that Weng son-in-law's fate-" Fortunately, there was nothing to do before, and Sheng Qian said that it was not a big deal, after all, he didn't say it clearly. patted Liu Zhiran on the shoulder, "Go back to sleep early, there are still many things to deal with in the household department early tomorrow morning." ”

"Isn't the teacher going to marry the third lady to me?" Liu Zhiran stubbornly asked again.

Sheng Qian's brows furrowed slightly, but Liu Zhiran had already waved his hand to say goodbye to him, "It's the student who didn't say anything just now." Xu was a little late, and his brain suddenly hurt, so the student said goodbye first. After that, he ignored Sheng Qian, and walked out of the door of the household department in a daze.

Sheng Qian stared at his back, his eyebrows worried for a while.
