The matter of this flower hall is not a big deal, it will pass quickly, except for the small episode just now, the Shu family has arranged it properly, and everyone will look at it, and everyone quickly forgot about the unhappiness just now, and when Li Jiaonu's mother got the news, this matter has already passed.

Knowing that his daughter had just come over and had a relationship with the Shu family's daughter-in-law, and it was still her own daughter's pick, he was a little worried that she would do something too much, so he kept her firmly by his side.

In particular, men and women are invited separately, the ladies and ladies are in the backyard, and the front hall is where Shu Zhenyuan receives his colleagues. Because Shu Zhenyuan was promoted to an official and was made a marquis, this is the best time for many people to tie the knot, so everyone who has some thoughts is here.

Shu Zhenyuan was also busy in the front hall, but suddenly heard the porter calling: "The second prince has arrived." ”

As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately stopped what they were doing, and waited for Wei Chi to ask, and as soon as he came in, they saluted one after another: "I've seen the second prince." ”

Wei Chi asked and waved his hand: "You don't have to be polite, I came today to congratulate An Guohou for the crown prince, An Guohou is the right-hand man of his father, I am fortunate to have this general, you don't have to be like this." ”

Shu Zhenyuan also hurriedly welcomed the second prince in: "Thank you, second prince, thank you, His Royal Highness the Prince." "It's another great gift.

Wei Chi asked and stretched out his hand to help Shu Zhenyuan: "An Guohou doesn't have to make this big gift, I just came over to take a look, An Guohou's politeness makes me feel guilty." ”

"The second prince is serious."

Wei Chi asked and waved his hand boldly, he was indeed entrusted by the prince today, but he also came for another thing. That day, he asked his subordinates to go to the yamen to check, but found that it was the daughter of the Shu family who bought the tea garden, he thought that although the Shu family now has military exploits, when Shu Zhenyuan is old, he will definitely return to Beijing, and it will not be difficult to talk about this matter at that time, after all, where can the general who has no military power say anything, then if Shu Zhenyuan knows each other afterwards, he will stand obediently, and he is sure that he can convince the general.

didn't think about it, but later this Shu Zhenyuan was favored by the emperor because of a trivial matter, and he was named a marquis, and he was somewhat afraid of the Shu family with the throne. If you can't move hard, you can only come soft, so I wanted to take this opportunity to explore Shu Zhenyuan's tone.

But just last night, his spies sent the portrait of Shu Manyin, the eldest lady of the Shu family, to his study, and told himself that Shu Zhenyuan's favorite thing was her.

He has always been confident in his appearance, and now the Shu family is also a new noble, and Miss Shu's appearance is rare in Beijing, if he can marry Shu Manyin, he will definitely get the full support of Shu Zhenyuan, and this transaction is not a loss, so he ordered to prepare a gift.

Shu Zhenyuan thought more than that, although he was fighting on the battlefield over the years, he had also heard about the situation in Beijing, the emperor was getting older, the prince was cowardly, and after the adult prince, there were only two princes, the fifth prince and the sixth prince were still a little bit interesting, these two princes have been doing things for the prince, but no one can say for sure, whether he has his own selfishness.

At this juncture, he didn't want to stand, his years of officialdom career and battlefield acumen made him clearly know that he could only be loyal to the emperor, whether it was the old emperor or the new emperor in the future, his family could be safe and sound, although he didn't want to have a big official position and how much money he had, it was what he wanted to do if the family could stand safely.

After Wei Chi asked, the originally lively atmosphere in the hall was a little colder, and everyone was afraid that the prince was here, so they didn't make too much ridicule.

At this moment, the porter sang again: "The Nine Princes have arrived." ”

This sound sounded, not only the officials in the hall, but even Wei Chi, who was sitting on the top seat and drinking tea, raised his head with some doubts, to know that his uncle was a lawless lord, not to mention that this and the Manchu Dynasty were afraid of him, even the father and queen mother had to let him score three points, not to mention the current queen mother, who had spoiled him since he was a child.

But this Nine Emperor Uncle is also capable, so everyone is also happy and convinced, but the Nine Emperor Uncles have never liked to participate in the affairs of officials, why did he suddenly make an exception today? Could it be that this Marquis of Anguo Mansion is interested in the Nine Emperor Uncles? The sharpness in Wei Chidu's eyes flashed, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye, put down the teacup in his hand, stood up and strode towards the door of the front hall, followed by An Guohou and other officials.

I saw that it was the little sixth son next to Mo Jinyu, and as soon as he saw the person, he arched his hand: "I have seen the second prince, I have seen the Marquis of Anguo, I have seen the adults, and the slave has been ordered by the master to send the plaque inscribed by the prince to the Marquis of Anguo." ”

After saying that, he waved his hand, and the guards behind him lifted the plaque, with the four big characters of "loyalty and bravery" written on it, the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, and the atmosphere was surging, just like the person of the Nine Princes.

An Guohou is happy to close his mouth, everyone knows that the nine princes have never liked to make friends with people, this time in Jiangnan met the prince, after coming back, he was sealed, and now he is inscribed by himself, An Guohou is not a fool, naturally he knows that he is the official this time, he must have been supported by the nine princes, but the nine princes are not concerned about that position, but gave way to the current saint.

"Thank you, Six, Six, come in for a drink?" An Guohou arched his hand and welcomed Xiao Liuzi in.

"Then the miscellaneous family will thank An Guohou?" Xiao Liuzi came over today because his master heard that the second prince was coming, so he asked himself to come over, and An Guohou of the province felt embarrassed.

Xiao Liuzi has always felt a little strange, when did his prince become a person who waded into the troubled waters of the world? Hasn't he always been a god who doesn't eat fireworks? Moreover, the last time the prince went to Jiangnan, he also had a temporary idea, and obviously asked the emperor to play chess on the second day, but as soon as the secret guard came back, he rushed to Jiangnan non-stop. Sure enough, God is God, and we laypeople can't guess it.

With the people of the Nine Princes here, no matter who it is, it is even more restrained, who doesn't know that it is a character who can't distinguish anger and has good means, so even with Wei Chi asked a little bit of extravagance.

Soon, there was a word from the backyard that the banquet could be held, originally the man and woman should have sat at separate tables, but today is not only Shu Zhenyuan's promotion, but also the old lady's birthday, not to mention, although everyone knows that it is naturally more important to be promoted, but the Shu family is unwilling to do a big deal, and the invitation received by everyone stated that it was mainly for the old lady's birthday.

Everyone greeted each other and went to the backyard, and the ladies and ladies in the backyard also came over, and after a while, Shu Manyin and Shu Fangyin helped the old lady to the high position together, and helped the old lady to sit down. Everyone congratulated: "Shoubi Nanshan" and other auspicious words, which made the old lady happy.

"Wei Chi asked the old birthday star to wish the sun and moon to be prosperous, and the pine crane to be Changchun." Shu Manyin's hand stiffened, this voice? Why is he coming today? This voice will be remembered even if she turns to ashes and burns to bones.

The old lady felt Shu Manyin's stiffness and called softly: "Man'er? ”

When Shu Manyin raised her eyes again, she returned to a calm appearance, looking at her grandmother and shaking her head slightly. But when Shu Fangyin on the side saw Wei Chi asking, her eyes lit up a lot in an instant, she had never seen such an outstanding man, with a straight nose bridge, a thin and distinct face, eyebrows like swords, narrow peach blossom eyes, all over the body showing her noble identity, a moon-white robe, it was really like a crown of jade.

Looking at it, Shu Fangyin couldn't help but have a flying glow on her face, and she heard the young ladies discussing in her ears: "Oh, the second prince is also here, the second prince is really a dragon and a phoenix among people." ”

"What's more, the second prince is not only the leader of today's men, but also a talented person under the Nine Princes."

"That's it, it's a pity, although the Nine Princes are good-looking, they are as cold as a Hades face, which is really scary."

Shu Fangyin listened to the words of these noble girls, and she was even more shy, especially because Wei Chi asked because she was slightly stunned because she saw the different tastes of the two sisters of the Shu family, which made Shu Fangyin ecstatic in her heart.

"Thank you, old man, Second Prince." The old lady was a little surprised to see that the second prince was also coming, but after all, she was a person who had experienced wind and rain, and she quickly cleaned up her mood.

Soon the dishes were served on the table, and in order to celebrate his grandmother's birthday, Zhou invited the troupe, so everyone was waiting for the dishes to be served while watching the troupe sing, and they were also happy.

Soon Zhou's, Aunt Feng gave the old lady and Shu Zhenyuan with a good gift, and the brilliant treasures also opened the eyes of everyone present, and then, it should have been Shu Manyin's gift, but thinking that Wei Chi was also here, she deliberately hid it, and when she was hesitating, she heard Shu Fangyin say crisply: "Grandmother's birthday is happy, granddaughter is not talented, I don't know what to offer for a while, I smell my grandmother likes Buddha, so I embroidered a Bodhisattva statue with my own hands, and I hope that my grandmother will not give up." ”

The red apricot behind him held the Bodhisattva statue and handed it to the old lady, and the old lady's Qian Mama hurriedly stepped forward to take it, with a look of satisfaction on her face, and erected the Bodhisattva statue and showed it to everyone.

When the old lady saw this lifelike Bodhisattva statue, she was very happy: "The second girl really has a heart, this Bodhisattva statue must have taken a lot of effort, good, good, good." ”

"My granddaughter also has this embroidery skill, and I only hope that my grandmother likes it." With that, she knelt down and bowed deeply. The evaluation of the crowd entered their ears.

"This Shu family is really a good person, and the daughter raised is both beautiful and virtuous, and this embroidery is like the real one, which has made my mood open up a lot."

"It's really a good embroidery skill." Wait a minute

Shu Fangyin, who was burying her head, sneered in her heart, with her own pearl and jade in front, look at how you Shu Manyin are going to crush me with a dead thing today. Fu raised his head again, thinking about Shu Zhenyuan's direction, and bowed deeply: "Today is also a happy event for my father, and my daughter has also prepared a gift for my father." ”

Shu Zhenyuan leaned forward: "Oh? The second girl also prepared a gift for her father? Is it possible to embroider a portrait of my father? ”

"The father laughed, the father is a general, he is majestic, the daughter has never seen the father cross the horse and hold the sword, but he worships and respects the father, so he found a sword, since ancient times the sword is a hero, in the daughter's heart the father is a hero, naturally the sword is given to the father." This remark was quite beautiful, and even Wei Chi, who was drinking tea with his head down, couldn't help but look up at her, this Shu family is really well-educated, and a concubine has such knowledge, no wonder.

Yu Guang peeked at the man he liked looking at him, especially the appreciation in his eyes, Shu Fangyin was even more happy in her heart.

"Okay, okay, the second girl really fits the father's heart." Shu Zhenyuan looked at a sword presented in front of him, although the scabbard was a little gorgeous, but it looked very sharp inside, and it could be regarded as attentive.

Aunt Feng looked at what Shu Fangyin had done today, but she inadvertently frowned slightly.
