Guan Ping turned his head and didn't say anything more.

On the stage, when singing and dancing were leveling, occasionally a cold wind slipped past his ears, Sheng Mingzhu tightened his clothes, and his eyes skimmed to Jiang Runyan and Wei Xi's side. But seeing that Wei Xi, who was still cold-faced just now, was smiling and saying something to Jiang Runyan, and the person standing next to him was the crown princess - obviously he didn't like it, but he had to force a smile.

Sheng Mingzhu looked at it, and suddenly remembered something, and said to Guan Ping, "It is said that old age and decay are lovely." In the future, Mingzhu and the overseer will get married, sooner or later there will be a day of aging appearance, if the overseer wants to take a concubine, Mingzhu will not stop it, but on that day, I hope that the overseer will not favor a woman too much and break the rules of the back house. ”

When I was a child, I was looking forward to growing up, but now when it's time to get married, I have to face these things. In the past, when he was in Bingzhou, he heard that a family had accepted a concubine and snubbed his original wife, Sheng Mingzhu always scoffed, and what he was thinking about was Zhuo Wenjun's white-headed chant - if you don't have the heart, I will leave.

But when it came to the end, she realized that she didn't do what she wanted, for example, how could the person in front of her allow her to leave the house.

Guan Ping's brows furrowed deeply, and there seemed to be a layer of unevenness at the end of his eyes. He forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and after a while, he still couldn't hold back, "I used to think that you were arrogant and impatient, but I didn't expect to have a generous heart." In this case, Guan thanked Miss Sheng San for her generosity in advance for the concubines who had not yet entered the mansion in the future. ”

After speaking, he got up from his chair, "There are still many things to deal with in the house, everyone is happy." ”

After saying a few words to the person sitting next to him, Guan Ping quickly got up and left. Sheng Mingzhu was still sitting and didn't look up, as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water in front of her. I couldn't figure out what kind of feeling was in my heart, but I felt that a bitter taste came up my throat, and I hurriedly raised my wine glass and drank it gently.

The banquet was dispersed very late, and it was a little cold in the cold wind. Sheng Mingzhu drinks fruit wine every day, and today at the banquet, it is because Guan Ping is sitting next to her, the wine is quite spicy, and after drinking a little more, she feels hot all over her body, and she is slightly drunk. Jin Zhi followed behind her, and also saw that her eyes were a little confused, and she only stared carefully, for fear that she would fall down if she didn't look at the steps steadily.

Sheng Mingzhu was so drunk that she didn't go crazy, but she was much quieter than usual. She knew that she was a little drunk, but she hadn't reached the point of being unconscious, all the way to the outside of the prince's mansion - the wind was still cold at night, Sheng Mingzhu's heart was frozen by the cold wind blowing in front of her, and she was about to hang her head to hide in the sedan chair, but suddenly there was a pair of feet in front of her, blocking her way.

Sheng Mingzhu went to the left, and he also went to the left.

Soon she raised her head to look at him, she was really a little drunk and unclear, she frowned slightly, and said, "Good dogs don't get in the way." ”

Guan Ping regretted it as soon as he went out, after all, the two hadn't seen each other for several days, and he didn't want to break up unhappily after the last meeting. After waiting for a long time in the cold wind, I waited for a sentence [Good dogs don't get in the way]? Even a good-natured person loses his temper when he hears it, let alone him.

"This is the rule that Ling Zun handed over to you?" Guan Ping broke her face, "How did you become the mother of the back house like this?" ”

Sheng Mingzhu originally remembered the matter of taking concubines in the future, and then remembered the messy inner houses outside the state, so he pushed his hand away, "Which one said that he wanted to be the mother of the queen house?" Zuo but in the future, you will marry a lot, and you will also learn from Your Majesty to draw green cards, and choose one to be your master and wife at will. ”

Guan Ping was a little angry, but after a while, he suddenly lost his laughter.

There are some concubines in his house, and I haven't seen them much. They were all rewarded from the palace, but when these concubines first came to the house, they all showed jealousy, and they had never eaten pork and always saw pigs running. I always feel that this little girl doesn't understand love, but now it seems that I have some thoughts about myself.

"Golden Branch, where is Golden Branch?" Sheng Mingzhu was a little dizzy, feeling that he couldn't stand steadily, so he hurriedly evoked the golden branch. Guan Ping waved his hand, held her arm, and quickly picked up the person, and smelled the aroma of wine on her body, "That wine is spicy, how much have you drunk." ”

"It's only half a cup." Sheng Mingzhu rubbed her forehead, only feeling that her brain was the same as her body, it was burned, and it was a little unclear. Nowadays, there are people who are willing to travel and do not struggle.

Guan Ping walked all the way, the night wind was a little strong, but the person in his arms seemed to have no weight.

"Now that you are not married, you can ask for anything", Guan Ping said, "Women are always delicate, especially women who are liked." ”

Sheng Mingzhu was slightly stunned for a moment, and then looked up at him again. In fact, today she also understood that she was a little unreasonable, so she looked at him, in fact, there are many differences between the two, although she occupies the name of the granddaughter of the Shengguo Mansion, but she is a girl who grew up in a small place in Bingzhou.

"My father told me in the past that the girls in our family are not allowed to take concubines when they marry men, and if they can't find this article, it is better to recruit a son-in-law."

In fact, Sheng Qian said such a thing, but it was a long time ago. Since the family came to the capital, he has never mentioned such jokes. Sheng Mingzhu made a request that he felt was very excessive, and shrank his head slightly.

No matter how good Guan Ping's temper is, when he hears the word son-in-law, he is afraid that he will have to fall from his arms.

After waiting for a long time, I didn't see any movement from him. Sheng Mingzhu's closed eyes opened slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at him again, but he could only see his chin. Maybe it was inadvertent, he suddenly lowered his head, the two collided eyes, and Sheng Mingzhu found that he really had a pair of extremely deep eyes.

She was so close to him that she couldn't see what kind of look was in his eyes.

"I promised you, if one day, if I take a concubine, I will join your Sheng family as a son-in-law."

Sheng Mingzhu felt that her feet were a little soft, but fortunately she was held. The wine was much lighter, she looked at Guan Ping with round eyes, and she couldn't imagine that this sentence came from the mouth of the master who had always been above the top.

"Any more requirements?" Guan Ping smiled, originally a pair of phoenix eyes were slightly curved, and the starlight fell into it, and suddenly it was much gentler.

Sheng Mingzhu shook his head, "It's really gone?" He asked, as if there was a hint of coaxing.

She thought about it, but she didn't come up with anything. Guan Ping was about to say something, but when he saw Tsing Yi coming in a hurry and saying something next to Guan Ping's ear, his expression suddenly changed.

Sheng Mingzhu found that Guan Ping was looking at himself again, which was different from the gentleness just now - something similar to the feeling of compassion and distress. She suddenly panicked and blinked, "What's wrong?" ”

——

In the middle of the night, the wind was much lighter than before, and there was a slight breeze blowing on the face.

Sheng Mingzhu squeezed the hand of the golden branch, got off the sedan chair all the way, and arrived at the Shengguo Mansion, just in time to see a column of people dressed as guards coming out. She walked closer, but saw Wang Fu, who was holding a holy decree in her hand, with a gloomy face, Sheng Mingzhu walked over and took the holy decree, regardless of Wang Fu's expression, and directly spread it out to see.

Except for those crepe words, it was a holy decree to remove her grandfather from all official positions and allow him to be relieved and returned to the field.

Sheng Mingzhu looked at it, tears suddenly fell out, raised his head again, and asked Wang Fu in front of him, "Where is my grandfather?" ”

Wang Fu looked at this little girl, in the end, he had been paying attention to it before, and now he couldn't bear to see her crying, but the long and short pain was painful, so he said, "The slave maid originally came to announce the holy decree by the emperor's will, but before she entered the mansion, she heard the funeral report from the people in the mansion, saying that the old prince had gone." I went because of illness. ”

The imperial doctor sent from the palace prescribed a patch medicine after pinching the pulse of the old man, and after drinking it, he became seriously ill and died.

There was not even a slag in the bowl of medicine, and no one knew what was going on. It can't be said that she is grief-stricken, just like her grandfather is always happy and laughing in her heart, and now the smile is like a thin needle pricking her, at first she felt nothing, she could bear it, but later it was about dense.

Guan Ping helped her, "Go home first, tomorrow I will send someone to the house, how to deal with the funeral of Old Duke Sheng, and ask your mother." ”

It stands to reason that the Sheng family's three rooms and one family have already lived away from the Sheng Guo Mansion, and the Sheng Guo Gong has gone, and the funeral should also be handled by the Ruan family. Guan Ping said this, but Sheng Mingzhu didn't hear anything wrong, and returned to the house in a daze with the holy decree.

——

Sheng Guogong went due to illness, and the news spread to everyone on the second day.

Naturally, there are discerning people who know in their hearts that the imperial doctor who went out of the palace early that morning saw the old prince Sheng, and he was obviously to see a doctor, but who knows if it was because of the dissatisfaction of the prince who was provoked by the defeat this time. On the day Sheng Guogong went, Mrs. Song also wiped her neck with a white silk.

I don't know who came out with the news, saying that the prince first forced the old prince to death for the military power of the Shengguo Mansion. The old lady had nowhere to redress her grievances, so she hanged herself in one breath. Everyone knows that this is a raft made by others, but Ruan's doesn't know, and Sheng Feifei doesn't know.

Especially when the old prince Sheng had just gone on the front foot, the Su family on the back foot moved away with Li Qianran and Li Qiancheng, and sent someone to follow him to know that he had gone to the prince's mansion. The Ruan family sent someone to deliver the letter several times in the past two days, asking when the wedding date would be delayed - after all, now that Sheng Lao Guogong is gone, Sheng Feifei has filial piety on her.

Grandfather, at least three months. But he couldn't wait for Su's letter.

It gradually became clear in my heart that the old man had gone, and the old lady had gone. The only big ship in the mansion fell, she didn't blame the Su family for falling into the well, after all, it was estimated that it would be the same if she was herself, but as long as she thought of who killed Sheng Lao Guogong and who killed her, she couldn't bear it in her heart.

The more the news spread, the more Ruan stumbled.

The prince was originally a violent temper, and in the past few days, the officials have thought that he forced the old prince to death, and the Ruan family is still jumping there. I couldn't get angry for a while-well, since you all said that I had done it, there was something more, so I directly sent some guards, pinched some names at will, and seized the Guogong Mansion.
