Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Mansion of the Marquis of Ankang
"At that time, the emperor wanted to marry the little princess to the eldest prince of the Ankang Marquis Mansion, and the talented woman did not lose a good story. The holy decree was issued, and An Kangbo was also promoted to An Kang Hou, and the scenery was the same for a while. ”
"It's a pity, the beautiful man praised by everyone in the capital is not looked down upon. The little princess fell in love with the second son of the Fuguo General's Mansion at that time, and she didn't marry this person. The second son of the Auxiliary General's Mansion was also a brilliant figure back then, and the eldest son of Zhenguo and the second son of the Auxiliary State were all rising stars among the generals at that time. ”
"Huh? Brother-in-law? Is Uncle so powerful? ”
Wang Chengwen was a little surprised, in fact, although his father always likes to work against him, but in fact, Wang Chengwen is not afraid of Second Uncle Wang at all, in his eyes, his father is a paper tiger, in vain. But the person Wang Chengwen is most afraid of is his uncle, as long as Uncle Wang stands there and glances at it lightly, Wang Chengwen will be covered in cold sweat inexplicably, and he will walk against the wall in fright.
"Of course, what do you kid know, your uncle is not an ordinary character!"
Second Uncle Wang worships his eldest brother groundlessly, he is the father of three children, and he still does not change his true colors.
"Well, whatever you say, it's what you say."
Wang Chengwen muttered in a low voice, but he thought in his heart that when he fell in love with the second son of the Fuguo General's Mansion, maybe it was because the uncle was too fierce, but Wang Chengwen didn't dare to say this in front of the second uncle Wang.
Mu Qingwan watched the interaction between Second Uncle Wang and Wang Chengwen, and shook her head helplessly.
"And then? And then? Wang Chengwen couldn't help but ask, and Mu Qingwan was also more curious.
"Later, I heard that it was the eldest princess who had entered the palace and became a beauty at that time, who was in charge, drugged the little princess, and forced the little princess to marry the little princess to the Ankang Hou Mansion.
"But who knows, on the second day of the wedding, the little princess found out that she was drugged and wanted to die or live, which was in a uproar in the capital at that time."
"A few years have passed, and I thought that this matter would be calm from then on. But later, in a border turmoil, the second son of the Auxiliary General's Mansion disappeared and his whereabouts are unknown. At that time, the little princess avoided the guards and escaped from the Ankang Hou Mansion, and the little princess also disappeared, and her life and death were unknown. ”
Later, about another year later, the second son of the Fuguo General's Mansion returned to the world, it is said that he was rescued by a family of ordinary people at that time, but unfortunately the place where he lived was too remote, and the second son was seriously injured at that time, and in desperation, he could only recover from his injuries before coming back. In short, the second son is back, everyone is very happy, and the emperor specially commends the second son. As for the little princess, it seems to have been forgotten. ”
"After another half a year, the old marquis of the Ankang Hou Mansion died, the eldest prince inherited the title, the house can not be without the hostess of the house, and the previous emperor's marriage, some of them can't live in the Ankang Hou Mansion, therefore, the emperor authorized Ankang Hou not to wait for three years of filial piety before getting married, and gave Ankang Hou another family business, this time specially promised a gentle and virtuous noble daughter to An Kanghou."
However, what everyone didn't expect was that just a month after Ankanghou got married, the little princess returned to Ankanghou's mansion and vowed to live a good life with Ankanghou from now on. At this moment, An Kanghou can be embarrassed. Before and after, they were all married by the emperor, and they were all the wives that they were marrying, how could this be good? ”
Speaking of this, Second Uncle Wang picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
"And then? And then what happened? ”
Wang Chengwen was a little anxious to ask about the development of the story, and Mu Qingwan also wanted to know what these things had to do with Li Ying in the future.
"Don't worry, don't worry, for such a thing, the emperor turned a blind eye and told An Kanghou that the women in his house should take care of it himself. There is no way, the two women are not good stubble, and An Kanghou is a person with little courage and courage. Since then, there have been two women, big and small, in the Ankang Hou Mansion, which are considered two equal wives, and the Ankang Hou Mansion has divided into two courtyards, and they don't care about each other. This is also a unique one in the capital, and it has often made jokes. ”
"As for that Li Xiaoya, she also found the Ankang Hou Mansion not long ago. It is said that after the little princess left Beijing, she found out that she was pregnant, gave birth to a daughter halfway, and sent a sample to a people's house, and when she sent someone to look for it in the future, she found that the people had moved away. ”
For such a statement, Mu Qingwan was a little disbelieving. Zhuangzi has existed for many years, and listening to Aunt Wang's previous statement, it was a woman who called herself Li Ying's aunt who put Li Xiaoya in Zhuangzi, and the people of Zhuangzi waited for more than ten years but no one ever came to pick up anyone.
"Uncle, what do you think? Is such a statement doubtful? Zhuangzi is obviously easy to find, and he has never moved away, so it is impossible not to find it. ”
Mu Qingwan told Second Uncle Wang about the doubts in her heart.
"There are many twists and turns in big families, and such things can't be delved into. However, it is true that the eldest lady of the Ankang Hou Mansion has no children, and in the more than ten years since she married into the Ankang Hou Mansion, she has not given birth to a single child, but the little lady has given birth to a total of three daughters, although she has not given birth to a son, but it is much better than not having children. ”
"Hey, I really don't understand, what does this have to do with Li Xiaoya's return home."
Wang Chengwen scratched his head, not knowing why.
"The eldest lady should want a child by her side, and it just so happened that Li Xiaoya appeared and made up for the vacancy. The eldest lady and the younger lady are fighting each other, so the timing of Li Xiaoya's appearance is just right, so whether she is the eldest lady's child or not, and why the eldest lady didn't pick her up, these are no longer important. ”
"Okay, okay, I still don't understand. Women are troublesome, and I really don't understand what to do with so many things. ”
Wang Chengwen shrugged, saying that he still couldn't understand.
"Uncle, then Li Xiaoya will be unfavorable to us in the future, after all, she came out of our Zhuangzi."
Mu Qingwan didn't care much about Li Ying's confession, the only thing she cared about was whether Li Ying would be unfavorable to her family.
"Then don't worry, that Li Xiaoya has such a hand, and it didn't take long to break into the circle of nobles in the capital, such as playing cards is a means she uses to make friends with noblewomen. The girl is very high-spirited, so she cares more about her reputation, she herself said that she was an adopted daughter in a Xiucai family before, although the family is poor, but she has also been literate since she was a child. Xiucai's family died, and he moved the idea of looking for relatives, but what he said was clear-sighted, and he earned the tears of many ladies and ladies in the capital. For example, she almost died of illness in Zhuangzi before, and she had the experience of being a miscellaneous girl, which is simply secretive, but she doesn't have to worry about causing any trouble in the future. ”
In this way, Mu Qingwan is relieved, no matter how Li Xiaoya behaves in the future, it has nothing to do with her. Everyone has their own ambitions, and I also hope that this fellow traveler of mine will seek more blessings for himself.
