Chapter 124: The Queen's Birthday
Song Yu hung his head, his husband was innocent, and he was guilty.
It's not that she doesn't understand this truth. Sheng Mingzhu took her hand and proposed, "It's better to follow me to Shangshu Mansion to live, no one dares to go to my house to make trouble", she knew Song Yu's temperament, and she didn't like to cause trouble to others, so she hurriedly added, "Sister Song, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the child in your belly, you also saw the scene just now, if your belly grows bigger in the future, you may not be able to get out of it like now." β
Song Yu shook his head, "It's not appropriate." β
Not to mention that she and Sheng Daren were confused by her mother Cheng before, even if Mingzhu didn't mind, how could Mingzhu's mother not mind. Sisters are really good to themselves, how can Song Yu not consider others. Ordinary people say that they don't help the poor, and she is like a hot potato now.
Guan Ping also frowned slightly, obviously a little dissatisfied with Sheng Mingzhu's words.
Song Yu also knew that the incident he had already spread some time ago, and Mingzhu was going to marry into the Guanfu after all. What man would like his wife to stay with a woman with an unclear reputation for a long time.
There was some silence in the room.
"Tanhualang has found a good place, the place is quiet, and the melons and fruits are sweet." Guan Ping said suddenly, facing Chen Cen, his tone was relaxed, as if he was just gossiping. Chen Cen lowered his head slightly, "The scenery here is really suitable. β
"Yes, the people are beautiful, and the scenery is also beautiful."
The two of them seemed to be playing dumb riddles, Song Yu raised his head and looked at Guan Ping, "It's not a good place for outstanding people, but except for the son of the chief soldier who I saw today, the people in the other places are very easy to get along with, and they can be regarded as beautiful." β
Guan Ping didn't say anything more.
ββ
At night, Guan Ping sent Sheng Mingzhu back to the house, and the sedan chair went all the way to Shangshu Mansion, both of them were on the sedan chair, Sheng Mingzhu didn't speak, and Guan Ping didn't speak. Originally, before he decided to marry, or before he showed interest in her, Sheng Mingzhu felt that there seemed to be countless topics to talk about with him.
In her impression, Mr. Guan is a wise person who knows astronomy and geography.
But once the identity has changed, the smooth words of the past can no longer be said. Before the sedan chair arrived at Shangshu Mansion, Sheng Mingzhu asked the sedan chair bearer next to him to stop, "It's almost there, let's send it here." β
Guan Ping's eyes narrowed, as if he was pretending to sleep, and ignored her. Sheng Mingzhu told him that he should not, and his heart was angry, so he opened the sedan curtain and prepared to walk back to the house by himself, but before he got off the sedan chair, he was held by someone, and he fell into the carriage without standing firmly, and Guan Ping put his hand on the side wall so as not to touch her head.
The posture of the two was very intimate, Sheng Mingzhu struggled for a moment, did not break away from his hand, and said sarcastically, "When did the governor of the capital also get into trouble with the chief soldier today?" Could it be that you don't know that molesting a woman from a good family is to be imprisoned in the Dongchang prison and cut off her hands as a punishment? β
The naughty character next to him rose again, and he used his own words to teach the disciple today. Guan Ping pulled her back into his arms with one hand and gently hugged her, "Stay with me for a while?" Well? His tone was a little more restrained in the night.
The spikes on Sheng Mingzhu's head were as if they were wrapped in cotton, and he couldn't stab people if he wanted to. If you make trouble again, it's like tickling someone, and you don't speak. Lifting the curtain with one hand, there is a wind blowing in, the cold wind of different winters, the night breeze is still a little cool, but it also has a refreshing taste.
Sheng Mingzhu couldn't say, but he relied on him in the end. I don't know how long I sat down, the night was deeper than before, the sedan chair was fine, the golden branches outside the sedan chair were blown by the cold wind but shivered, and she just ventilated in the porter, but it was only too late.
"Miss, aren't you going back yet?"
Sheng Mingzhu heard Jin Zhi's voice, so he withdrew his hand from Guan Ping's hand, "I'm going home." β
I didn't feel anything just now, but Jin Zhi was born and felt a lot of embarrassment in his heart. The original calm passed, Guan Ping asked his subordinates to drive to the gate of Shangshu Mansion, Sheng Mingzhu had not gotten out of the car, he suddenly said, "Don't go to the suburbs of Beijing in the future, it's not safe." β
Sheng Mingzhu frowned slightly, didn't speak, and continued to get out of the car. Guan Ping was a little displeased, in the end, it was the superior who was used to giving orders, seeing that she obviously heard her words but turned a blind eye, and continued, "Haven't you heard what I said? β
"I hear you."
Sheng Mingzhu didn't like his tone either, "But didn't the governor send someone to protect me for twelve hours a day?" Although there were no guards patrolling the suburbs of Beijing, Mingzhu thought that since there was someone in charge of the governor to take care of him, if someone could still take advantage of the loophole, there seemed to be no safe place in the world. β
Guan Ping knew that she didn't like her to send someone to follow her, and now she deliberately used words to block herself, "If you really have a good relationship with that Miss Song family, I can help you search for a house and settle her, and there will be no more today's incident." β
Sheng Mingzhu's eyes paused slightly, but he was a little strange, where did he have the leisure to care about her children's trivial matters. Soon, Guan Ping's tone changed, "County Lord, what a husband can do, if you have a need, I will find a way to do it for you." There is only one thing you need to remember that your future husband is a man who has no room for sand in his eyes. That Tanhualang is always a foreign man anyway, you need to avoid suspicion. β
I was thinking about it here.
Sheng Mingzhu laughed angrily, "I didn't know that Guan Dudu still had such a hobby, and before he got married, he wanted to pick up a green hat and put it on his head-" She was really angry, but she didn't know how she was poked in her lungs, so she lifted the sedan curtain and left, never looking back.
Guan Ping looked at her back, his eyes were dark, as if he was hiding something.
The gray clothes next to him have been hidden in the night, and seeing the conflict between himself and Miss Gengsheng's little couple, he couldn't help but step forward and say, "Master, which pot do you not open?" "It's a good time to spend money, and when it comes to this stubble, it seems that Miss Ren is a person who is in the twilight.
Guan Ping only glanced at him, and the gray clothes closed his mouth and retreated.
How could he not know what she was angry with - it's just that Chen Cen had seen her in the mansion before, and he had been following her buttocks, and now he was in the capital, and he was also an official, but he was still so obedient to a woman in the house.
is willing to be a stone for a woman, but Guan Ping doesn't believe it, as a man, he will only be for the sake of kindness.
Thinking of this, I feel a lot of boredom in my heart.
ββ
The queen's birthday is approaching, but Emperor Wei's illness has not been hidden, and the government and the opposition know about it.
Originally, the banquet planned to be held in the palace had to be cut down, and the emperor and queen had to celebrate with the court officials.
There is also Sheng Mingzhu, as the heroine who is about to marry into the Guanfu, she is also among the invitees this time.
Emperor Wei was seriously ill, but at this time, he invited Guan Ping to participate in such a banquet that only belonged to the royal family. Many princes who were originally not on good terms with Guan Ping had countless twists and turns in their hearts, at this time, how much power did the father give the governor of Guan Ping, and then seize the throne, as long as anyone can pull Guan Ping to his side, it will be a powerful help in the future.
On the eve of the banquet, the princesses of the Prince's Mansion and many county princes' mansions all sent a message to Sheng Mingzhu, and it was very clear what she wanted.
"Now is on the cusp of the storm, since you have settled down with Guan Ping, you will take him as the lead in the future."
There are a lot of people coming to Sheng Mansion these days, what are these people going to do in Sheng Qian, and I am afraid that my daughter will not be able to stand the pull of the people next to her, "Dad is a close minister next to His Majesty, and it is not good to take care of the people next to him." But you must have a scale in your heart, and you will have to go in whichever way you are level. β
After all, although they were all people around Emperor Wei, Sheng Qian knew that he was different from Guan Ping.
What kind of person is Emperor Wei, although Sheng Qian is loyal, he also knows that the heavenly family is unpredictable. But the things that Emperor Wei handed over to Guan Ping, which one was not enough to balance the future emperor, those princes still don't understand, and they want to win over Guan Ping. To put it bluntly, now that Emperor Wei is seriously ill, in that position, whoever Guan Ping lets sit will have the qualifications to sit.
Although Sheng Qian did not understand that Emperor Wei was an emperor, he trusted an outsider so much. But this is also the reason why he is relieved to let his daughter marry Guan Ping at such a time - Nan Nan Dream and don't mention it first, now Guan Ping has great power, she is his wife, and she can always protect him.
If it was ten years earlier, Emperor Wei was still young, and Sheng Qian Xing might not be happy with this marriage.
can be born in troubled times, if a woman is too beautiful, she can only rely on the strong. Guan Ping is a strong man in this era, he is not only interested in Nannan, but also willing to give her the respect of the main room, which is what Sheng Qian can think of, and his daughter has a good home now.
Sheng Mingzhu nodded, "My daughter understands." β
These days, the news that Emperor Wei is seriously ill has come out, and the government and the opposition are not very peaceful. She didn't want to get involved in these things, so she asked Jin Zhi to go back, "Let's just say that I have to prepare clothes and jewelry to go to the palace today, so I can't go to the banquetββ"
"Does everybody say that? Where is the crown princess too? Jin Zhi asked, but it was because it was the grandmother next to the crown princess who came to deliver the post today, and she grabbed her hand and said for a long time that Sheng Mingzhu saved the county lord of Yongning, and the county lord of Yongning helped his young lady in the winter hunting, and there was fate and so on.
"It's all the same."
The Prince's Mansion is indeed more familiar than the next place, and the county lord of Yongning has a good relationship with her. But in such a situation, she still shouldn't get anywhere.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the queen's birthday.
After Wei Xi got married, he went out of the house with the new princess Jiang Runyan, and was also crowned king by Emperor Wei, only as the seventh prince, and he had no time to be rewarded with the title. Today, the two of them entered the palace one after the other, separated by a long distance, and their faces and expressions were very serious, not like newly married couples, like strangers.
All the way to Concubine Liu's bedroom, Wei Ci asked Jiang Runyan to say goodbye, Wei Ci was half-kneeling, but Jiang Runyan was still standing.
