Tong's mother said: "Madame hopes that the eldest lady will marry the young master, just so that she can be happy in the future. The eldest lady's temper, Mrs. also knows, she has always been very fond of others to take their own ideas for her, if you force it too quickly, it will backfire. ”

Tong's mother has watched Jin Zhao grow up since she was a child, and what she said is also reasonable, how Fu Shi doesn't know the character of this daughter, she sighed and said: "What you said, how can I not be clear, you don't forget, the third prince has asked the saint to ask for marriage, not only these, the saint also summoned the general into the palace to talk about this matter, the general's personality, I know very well, I have always obeyed the emperor's orders, maybe this holy decree will come down in two or three days." Speaking of this, Fu Shi raised his eyes and looked at Tong's mother, "You told me not to be anxious, do you think I can not be anxious?" ”

It's just that Jin Zhao has a non-negotiable attitude at the moment, even if she is in a hurry, it is useless to be afraid.

This matter, if the parties do not let go, it will be tricky.

Mother Tong listened, pursed her lips, buried her head slightly, and did not speak. This was something she hadn't expected.

She thought, in addition to the eldest lady's level, there are also three princes, and the young master has encountered a problem this time.

The room was silent for a while.

After a while, Fu Shi moved his body, opened his mouth slightly, and said slowly: "Ye Er likes Jin Zhao, I didn't know about it before, now that I think about it, Ye Er is indeed different from others to Jin Zhao, I should have seen the clue earlier." If I had known that Ye'er, the child, was fond of Jinzhao, I would have given him advice. ”

Hearing this, Mother Tong said softly: "It's not too late for Madam to know now, we can help Young Master Cousin think of ideas."

After the words fell, Fu Shi shook his head: "In my opinion, it is a little late to know, at the moment the three princes' thoughts about Jin Zhao are self-evident, in case the Holy Lord really issued a holy decree at the request of the three princes, Jin Zhao's family affairs will be a foregone conclusion, I just want to help Ye'er, it will not help." As he spoke, a thought flashed through Fu's mind, and he said in a firm tone, "This matter must be grasped quickly, and the current situation does not allow us to slow down." For the sake of Ye and Jin Zhao, I have to go and tell the general about this matter in person, so that he can dispel marrying Jin Zhao into the emperor's family. ”

Everyone is trying their best to marry their daughter into the royal family, but Fu is different from others. In the things that others don't understand, Tong's mother understands.

Tong's mother hesitated and said, "If the eldest lady can understand Madame's hard work, how good it would be."

It sounds like it has something else to say.

Because of the incident between Su Jiannan and Shen Manxin back then, over the years, Fu and Su Jiannan have been a harmonious husband and wife, and in private, Fu has always been obsessed with the events of that year. Since then, Fu has never taken the initiative to find Su Jiannan. Most of the time, Su Jiannan took the initiative to come to her.

Therefore, when Fu Shi appeared in the study alone, Su Jiannan was naturally very surprised, and hurriedly put down the book and walked over to her.

"Why are you here?"

Su Jiannan said in a gentle voice.

Facing the other party's outstretched hand, Fu Shi dodged without a trace, she walked to the chair on the side and sat down slowly, straightened her clothes, and sat on the side very carefully.

Seeing this, Su Jiannan withdrew his hand, and then walked to Fu Shi and sat down.

"Madame has come to me this time, but what is the matter?"

The reason why it is said to be an important matter is because with Su Jiannan's understanding of the Fu family, if it is an ordinary trivial matter, just send a maid over to say it, and there is really no need to run it in person. As for what is important, I have to listen to what Fu Shi has to say.

Fu Shi raised his eyes, didn't turn around, and said bluntly: "The concubine came over today, and she really has something important to tell the general."

"Oh?" Su Jiannan suddenly became curious, and seeing Fu's solemn expression, he asked, "What is the matter, Madame might as well say it directly." ”

Fu Shi didn't answer directly, but asked him: "You told me before that the third prince asked the Holy Lord to ask for marriage, what do you think about this matter?"

Su Jiannan has a good impression of Yu Wenyu, and he can't say a reason for opposing it for a while, after all, the other party's status is noble, considering that Jin Zhao's disfigurement will inevitably affect the rest of her life, Su Jiannan said: "I don't have any objection to this matter, the character and appearance of the third prince have nothing to say, our daughter is like this now, it is undoubtedly the best choice, besides, the third prince personally went to ask the saint for marriage, this courage is not necessarily comparable to anyone." After a pause, he continued, "Madame asked, do you have any ideas?"

Sure enough, Su Jiannan had no opinion on the matter of giving marriage, Fu Shi pulled the corners of his mouth, and sneered: "Hasn't the general already decided, and the concubine can have any other ideas."

When Su Jiannan heard this, he was slightly stunned, he couldn't help but look at the person in front of him, as if he felt that Fu's today seemed to be different from the past, he sighed and said: "If Madame has anything to say, you might as well say it directly, between you and my husband and wife, why do you say such extraneous words." After a pause, he asked, "Or do you think there's anything wrong with this, and if you have any questions, just say it." ”

Su Jiannan said this, Fu Shi took out a letter from his cuff and handed it to him: "You can read this letter first."

Su Jiannan took the letter suspiciously, and then opened it and read it.

After Su Jiannan finished reading the letter, he said in a surprised tone: "I didn't expect Fu Ye to have such thoughts about Jin Zhao."

Fu Shi interjected and said: "That's not what I said, Ye'er, this child was grown up by me, and there is nothing to say about his character and ability, if I marry Jin Zhao to him, I will naturally be a hundred relieved in my heart." As for other people's ......" While speaking, Fu Shi glanced at Su Jiannan, others here are talking about Yu Wenyu, Fu Shi said, "I don't know much about it, besides, the other party's identity is special, if we really marry Jin Zhao, if we are wronged in the future, we parents can only turn a blind eye, and we can't offend the royal people." The general has always been loyal to the imperial court, if something happens, let the general offend the royal people for Jinzhao, this is a big taboo for the general, dare to ask the general, I don't know if what the concubine said is right? ”

Su Jiannan listened to these words, but did not make a sound, and still didn't know how to answer in the end. Fu Shi hit with one word, he really wouldn't offend the royal people because of family matters. After all, his greatest wish in life was to be loyal to the imperial court.

Su Jiannan's reaction was expected by Fu Shi, she sorted out her thoughts, and continued: "It's just that the concubine is a person who can't see the child being wronged, if the concubine Jinzhao is bullied, I, as a mother, will definitely find the other party for an explanation, but in this way, it will make it difficult for the general to be caught in the middle." It will be difficult in the future, but it is better to decisively refuse now, and regret it later. ”

Before Fu Shi came here, he had made up his mind in his heart, and naturally he would not give in easily.

Su Jiannan also heard the meaning of Fu's words, he slowly put the letter in his hand aside, thought about it secretly, and said: "It seems that Madame has decided to let Jin Zhao marry Fu Ye, since this is the case, Madame will no longer agree to this family affair of the royal family, I don't know if I am right?"

Fu Shi did not evade, nodded and replied: "As the general said, the concubine body does mean this."

These words undoubtedly showed Fu's attitude and position, and it seemed that he was not here to discuss with Su Jiannan, but as if he was here to inform him.

Su Jiannan has no opinion on Fu Ye's behavior, and he is the Fu family, so it is naturally better to be close to each other. It's just that at the moment, it's about the three princes, and it's careless.

Su Jiannan thought for a while and said: "Today in front of Mrs., I will say something unpleasant, our Jinzhao has become like this now, the people who came to propose marriage before saw her, they all retreated, and they were no longer seen at the door of the Su family, it is rare that the three princes do not dislike it, and take the initiative to ask for marriage from the saint today, I naturally have no reason to refuse." As for Fu Ye, at the moment, he is afraid that he still doesn't know Jinzhao's situation, if he ......"

Before Su Jiannan finished speaking, he was interrupted by Fu Shi: "General, don't worry, Ye'er is not that kind of person, I can assure you of this."

The reason why Fu Ye is so confident and confident is that she just knows the inside story, but she doesn't plan to tell anyone, including Su Jiannan. Of course, she did this with her intentions, but after all, it was just for Jinzhao's good.

Su Jiannan naturally didn't expect Fu Shi to be so determined, he said: "Since Madam believes in Fu Ye's personality, she naturally has nothing to say as a father, but Jin Zhao's side, I don't know what she thinks?" I don't think she seems to have a male or female meaning for Fu Ye. ”

Speaking of Jin Zhao, it was Fu Shi who was most worried, in order to dispel Jin Zhao's concerns, Fu Shi said: "The general doesn't have to worry, Jin Zhao, this child has always listened to the concubine's words the most, if she knows that I am a mother for her good, she will naturally not be disobedient." As for the matter of marriage, I have to trouble the general to make it clear to the saint as soon as possible, lest the matter be irreparable when the holy decree is given. ”

This is what the Fu family is most worried about, if Su Jiannan can help her get rid of the royal family, Jin Zhao's side, she will try to persuade her.

Su Jiannan is not a person who climbs the dragon and attaches the phoenix to marry his daughter, if it is for the good of his daughter, he has no reason not to agree.

Su Jiannan said to the Fu family: "Since you have a better candidate, I will find a suitable time to make it clear to the Holy Lord, and implore him to dispel the matter of marrying Jin Zhao to the third prince." Speaking of this, Su Jiannan looked at the person in front of him, his eyes were a little affectionate, and even his voice softened unconsciously, "Yinghua, it's true that Jin Zhao is your daughter, but she is also my eldest daughter Su Jiannan, you are good for Jin Zhao, and so am I, as a father, so please don't doubt my fatherly love for Jin Zhao." ”

As soon as she said this, Fu's body stiffened, and she looked at Su Jiannan with an unnatural expression, and after a while, she spoke: "General, don't forget, your daughter is not only Jinzhao."

Su Jiannan closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened his eyes again, he said to Fu Shi helplessly: "It's been so many years, can't Madam forget what happened back then?"

He thought that after so long, the original hatred would be somewhat gone.

Now that the words are open, Fu Shi doesn't want to endure it anymore, she spoke up: "I'm afraid that no woman in the world will encounter this kind of thing, and she can forget it if she forgets it."

She wanted to spit out all these years of forbearance, but in the end she had some concerns, Fu Shi bit her lip, changed her tone instead, and said: "That's it, after so many years, the concubine doesn't want to mention the past anymore, the concubine came over today to tell you about Jinzhao, it's rare that Ye'er has a deep affection for Jinzhao, I hope you think about your daughter, don't make her unhappy in the future."

After speaking, Fu Shi slowly got up and prepared to leave.

"It's not too early, the concubine will not disturb the general's official business, and will retire first."

The person was about to walk to the door, and at this time, Su Jiannan suddenly opened his mouth: "Madame is doing this because she is worried that Jin Zhao will be the same as you."

As soon as the words fell, Fu immediately stopped, paused at the door for a few seconds before raising his feet again and stepping out of the room, without leaving a word.

When Su Jiannan turned around, Fu Shi had already disappeared.

As soon as Fu Shi arrived in front of Yinghua Pavilion, Tong's mother came out to greet her and helped her into the house.

"Madame has been gone for so long, how are things going?" Tong's mother asked with concern.

Jin Zhao also grew up watching her, and Tong's mother is naturally very concerned about her affairs.

Fu Shi remembered what Fang Cai and Su Jiannan said in the house, as if he was relieved, and said, "The general has promised to go to the Holy Lord and persuade the Holy Lord to dispel the idea of marrying Jin Zhao to the Third Prince."

When Tong's mother heard this, she nodded reassuringly: "In this way, it couldn't be better, Madame's troubles can be solved." It seems that the general can still listen to Madame's words. ”

After Fu sat down, Mother Tong personally poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her: "This is the tea that the slave maid just cooked, after talking for so long, Madame must be thirsty."

It is indeed some, Fu Shi took the teacup, and at this time, the temperature of the tea was suitable, and he took a few sips.

After Fu Shi finished drinking tea and put down the teacup, Tong's mother said again: "The general is willing to persuade the saint, from this point of view, he also likes the young master."

After speaking, he saw Fu Shi shaking his head on the spot.

"What, is it possible that the slave is wrong?" Tong's mother asked.

It is indeed wrong.

Fu Shi said: "The general's favorite candidate is actually the third prince, if I don't go to him today, maybe I will wait for the holy decree." Fortunately, he finally agreed and changed his mind. ”

At this time, Tong's mother said loudly: "If this is the case, the slave maid feels that the general still cares about his wife, otherwise he will not easily change his decision."

Fu Shi listened to Tong's mother's words and thought about it for a long time, probably she thought so in her heart.

Fu Shi suddenly realized something, so he suppressed his thoughts and explained to Tong's mother: "Since there is no problem on the general's side, you can go with me to Mu Jinyuan when you go back, and I still have to talk to her on Jinzhao's side, hoping to persuade her to agree to this family business, which is also what I, a mother, can do for her."
