Chapter 523: Pingle is married, and Wei Ran enters Beijing
To face the middle-aged woman in the poetry and book family, and to justify the "notorious" Pingle, the princess said that the pressure was not small, but to her surprise, Mrs. Wei was not inflexible in etiquette, but quite open-minded, when the princess went through a long courtesy, it was easy to carefully touch the topic, I never expected Mrs. Wei's reaction to be relieved-
"Don't hide it from the princess, for my wild and unruly nephew, I have not been complained by the patriarch in the past, and it is easy to expect him to restrain his heart and take the career seriously, the pressure on my and my grandson's shoulders is a little easier, and for the incident in the early years, we don't dare to force Suitan in marriage, this time I heard that he actually took the initiative to go to King Kang's mansion to propose marriage, and he really had to read a few words of 'Amitabha', although there were those gossips...... The patriarch also said, not all the wind rumors can be believed, I also inquired, compared with ordinary boudoir women, the county lord's temperament is much more arrogant, and his behavior is also contrary to etiquette, but if it is not, Suitan will not be tempted. ”
Yijing listened to Mrs. Wei's directness, but she didn't tactfully anymore, thinking that the Wei family could accept Pingle's "otherworldliness", and simply only targeted the charge of "domineering": "I have been friends with the county lord of Pingle in the past, and I know that she doesn't like to intrigue with people the most, but at that time, when she was young, the nobles and ladies could not help but fight and win in one place, Pingle did not admit defeat, and couldn't stand those twists and turns of ridicule and ridicule, once there was a conflict, I couldn't help but do it...... It is often the fault of both sides, and the county lord suffers from impatience. ”
Mrs. Wei can also understand that it was all many years ago, when King Kang's Mansion was jealous of the Son of Heaven, and there were those arrogant so-called ladies, who were suspected of being the first to provoke, and Pingle embarrassed them, because they had the title of county lord, they were bullied by others. But there is still one thing that Mrs. Wei is not worried about: "I heard that the county lord once whipped my sister, I don't know if it is a rumor?" ”
Sure enough, he still asked about this matter, Yijing sighed secretly, and did not cover it up for Pingle: "It was originally a dispute between two concubines, and I don't know how it annoyed Pingle, is it true...... It was because of this incident that Princess Kang realized that Pingle was too strong, and no matter what, she couldn't scold her sister and punished her severely...... It was only that time that Pingle also understood his mistake and never made a mistake again...... Over the years, not to mention the little lady of the palace, even for the cousins of the Yan Mansion, there are those who disdain and alienate on the surface, and Pingle has also forbearance a lot. ”
Mrs. Wei saw that the princess intended to "correct the name" of Pingle today, but she did not distort and conceal it, and put all the responsibility on the princess of the palace, but she believed that Pingle really "changed the evil and returned to the right", and she did not inquire before, although Pingle has a notoriety, and several sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law in the family can get along and get along, the two side concubines of King Kang's mansion, the concubine and the concubine have grown up safely, Princess Kang did not treat any of them, neither "stick killing" nor "killing", the side concubines have never had a miscarriage, and there is no violent illness and hidden disease, which shows that Princess Kang is generous. There is such a mother, even if she is spoiled by her only daughter and has developed a peaceful and straightforward temperament, she should be upright in her heart and not harbor evil.
If a person is not a sage, Mrs. Wei thinks that although it is "terrifying" to whip her sister, it is also a mistake when Pingle was young and ignorant, she can't just beat people to death with a stick, and besides, her nephew has a favorite person easily, this time there is a change again, is it really true that her nephew is lonely and will not grow old? Even the patriarch can't let go of these uncles and elders of Suitan.
So he happily gave Yijing a quasi-word: "Suitan is too rash, how can he rashly invite the official media to propose marriage, thanks to the prince who wrote a letter to Jizhou, otherwise we would still be in the dark, it is really rude...... The second uncle and his wife left early, I should have done something about Suitan's marriage with my grandson, but fortunately, it was not too late at this time, although Suitan was not in Jingyang at the moment, I thought he should have made up his mind, and my grandson and I should officially visit King Kang's mansion...... There is one thing, although there are many old friends in Kyoto, compared with the palace, the identity is still not important enough, and the concubine wants to ask the princess to see if she can find a suitable Baoshan. ”
At present, the marriage of the aristocracy, in addition to inviting the official media as evidence, the man has to find a respected guarantor to match in the middle to be considered a courtesy, Yijing is a woman's family, and Pingle is still the same generation, and the identity is not enough and is not in line with etiquette, but she is from a noble background, and now she is a clan woman, so she can naturally find a "significant" guarantor for the Wei family.
It's just who is the best fit...... The princess was indecisive for a while.
Mrs. Wei, who didn't know what to do, hurriedly advised: "If you can invite the Duchess of the Kingdom, it will be an honor for our house." ”
Of course not......
Mrs. Jianning Hou should be happy, but in the old years of Houfu, because of the matter between the Jiang family and the third master, there was a lot of turmoil, and it was not so appropriate to guarantee the marriage at this time; The Wei family is the first family, and it is important enough, but Yijing and Uncle Wei are not close, so it is inconvenient to bother her; Mrs. Wei's own family was busy with the family affairs of the Zhenguo Mansion, and it was also inconvenient; Mrs. Zhuo, Yijing is not very convinced.
It was easy to look at, but the princess felt a difficulty in her heart.
I had to explain that my stepmother had been feeling unwell recently, and Mrs. Wei was obviously a little disappointed.
"What does Mrs. Dong think? She was my sister-in-law's grandmother. Yijing thought about it for a while, and finally had a flash of inspiration.
Mrs. Wei pondered for a moment, the Dong family and the Weiguo Mansion are in-laws, the old lady Dong herself is the daughter of Jingyuan, and her son is now the governor of Zhongshu Province, and he is a second-class official, so he is naturally very important, so he can not lose the identity of Prince Pingle's concubine and county lord, so she hurriedly thanked her.
So Yijing was also a success this time, solved Pingle's lifelong destiny, and happily said goodbye to Mrs. Wei, very excited along the way, discussing with her cabinet how to blackmail Wei Yuan, and knocking on a thank you matchmaker.
As everyone knows, in the Qianrao Pavilion, the county lord of Pingle, who is "about to get married", was waving two silver tickets with great momentum at this time, and shouted at one who threw out twenty taels of silver and asked Du Yuniang to accompany the wine and sing the song: "Master is doubling here, please sit in Yu Niang's elegant room." ”
On the one hand, Princess Jin Yuan was also wearing a round-necked arrow-sleeved men's dress, sitting on the wall with half a corner of her eyes and watching, and suddenly received the charming eyes of a beauty, and hurriedly responded with an eyebrow, seeing that she was shocked by Pingle, and was thinking about "hooking up" with that beauty again, but she never thought that the beauty passed by, and she greeted a man with a sweaty head in a graceful manner.
I actually made a mistake! Princess Jin Yuan sighed.
"Uncle Wen, why haven't you come for so long......" The princess vaguely heard this, and saw Du Yuniang stepped forward with a smile on her face, immediately got up and hugged her, and took the pipa in Du Yuniang's hand very diligently.
The princess didn't know that the beauty just now looked at her back, her expression was very unwilling, and her eyes suddenly gouged Du Yuniang, and she was ruthless.
turned around and accompanied "Uncle Wen" to another private room.
Wen Jin didn't miss Xiao Yan's jealous appearance, so he slammed the door and warned fiercely: "Are you no better than the original person, who is already the fourth highness, and still wants to hook up with three and four?" His Royal Highness can make a special trip to let Chen Changshi take care of the bustard, and he won't let you pick up guests! ”
Xiao Yan rolled her eyes angrily, twisted her waist to herself, and sat down in the rose chair leaning against the embroidered screen: "I can't get used to those personable Yulang, I am circling around Du Yuniang, what's so great about her...... I can't wait until when you will act, and let me whisper to please that cheap prostitute. ”
Wen Jin was also very frustrated: "The master said that everything was ready to take the opportunity to do it, but I didn't know that the leader with strange whereabouts suddenly came to Kyoto, with him, he couldn't act rashly, I came back to tell you to still please Du Yuniang, don't let her notice something wrong...... Calm down, I can warn you, I can afford you to come to power, I have the ability to dismantle the stage, don't think that you can climb the prince can do it in vain, cross the river and tear down the bridge, in the end, you are still happy, if we don't have our protection behind, don't expect the fourth highness to give you a lifetime of wealth, your status, that is, just have fun, don't want to enter the door of the prince's mansion in this life. ”
Such disdain and contempt made the corners of Xiao Yan's lips twitch for a while, but she had to be afraid of Wen Jin and the gangs who didn't know the details, although His Royal Highness found her to go to the private garden twice, she was also very gentle when she was happy, and also sent Chen Changshi to mention the old bustard, gave a large sum of silver, and ensured that she could do whatever she wanted in the pampering of Qianrao Pavilion, and it was limited to this, even if she was happy, she never mentioned that she would be admitted to the house.
As long as she is still in the quagmire of Qianrao Pavilion for a day, she can't really raise her eyebrows, Wen Jin and that master want to clean her up, and the four princes are also beyond the reach of the whip.
can only forbear, after helping them succeed, and then slowly clean up Du Yuniang and Mei Niang, the two cheap prostitutes.
Xiao Yan grinded her teeth in her heart, reluctantly squeezed out a smile, and said euphemistically: "Didn't you say that the leader Shenlong saw the head but didn't see the tail, why did he suddenly come to Jinyang?" ”
"How do I know, I just heard from the master that the first few hall masters and deputy hall masters have been haunted these days, and they have explained that the leader is in Kyoto, and there may be a task at any time to wake them up." After Wen Jin finished speaking, he didn't want to stay any longer, so he turned around without even taking a sip of tea: "I can't stay here for a long time, and now I have to avoid a melon field and plum, but you have to remember that if it happens, the fourth highness will have to mention the master in his ears, otherwise...... The master has won the trust, you can be regarded as having a reliance, in the future, there is no hope to leave this fireworks willow lane, maybe you can still strive for a great wealth, but if you don't rely on it, you are a plaything, and there is only a dead end when the color is declining. ”
Xiao Yan squinted her eyes, and finally when Wen Jin pushed the door out majestically, she sputtered out a cold glow like quenched venom, and she took a sip, still puzzled, and muttered to herself: "What is there about me that is inferior to others, my appearance and singing voice, where can those famous ladies be compared, but my life is not good, I was born in a civilian home, and I met a useless old man who is addicted to gambling like his life, he wanted to sell me to a rich and noble family as a slave, why should I wait for those noble girls with empty status, and I have no future in my life?" I voluntarily came to this Yihong Street, and when I became a Qing man, I wanted to keep my innocent body, so that I could get the pity of the children of the official eunuchs to redeem me, but I met Du Yuniang, a stumbling block, and monopolized Jiang Lang's heart...... broke my body, and there was no hope of being a wife, but I was taught to run and climb to the sky. Hmph, wait and see, in the future, I will have the opportunity to become a Venerable Master, and none of you will want to live! ”
Speaking of Princess Jin Yuan, with the light of Pingle, enjoying the scenery of the streamer river while tasting wine and delicacies, listening to Du Yuniang singing several local folk songs with different flavors, she couldn't help but praise: "Where is the girl's ancestral home?" Listening to the little song you just sang, it seems to be very different. ”
Du Yuniang said with a smile: "The slave family was born in Kyoto and grew up in Kyoto, but they make a living from this, the guests come from all over the world, and my mother asks to learn more local songs, so that people can feel at home." ”
Princess Jin Yuan bowed her head: "This method is wonderful, when I return to Xiliang, let the leaders learn from it, even if you can't travel all over the country, you can also appreciate the customs of various places." ”
Pingle was envious: "Princess, you are really at ease, in Dalong, like me, I am an outlier, those famous families have strict family education, and every word and deed is inseparable from the rules, but even if my father and mother indulge me in fun, I still have a lot of scruples, and I can't be pure and free." ”
Jin Yuan saw that Pingle was open-minded and straightforward, but he was no longer polite: "To talk about it, Xiliang women are indeed not as restrained as Dalong women, and it is also a custom in the past, when the Three Kingdoms did not form an alliance, the southwestern countries were constantly in turmoil, and from time to time they had to be harassed by the Northern Plains. Even if Xiliang was founded, many customs followed the state of Dalong etiquette, but there are not too many rules for women, my women in Xiliang, all of them do not let the eyebrows, thirty years ago, the prime minister of Xiliang is the daughter, and the princess of Xiliang, can be in charge of military power, can be involved in political affairs, and it is common and necessary to travel to Zhuyi. ”
Listening to Pingle, he couldn't stop talking, and he was very longing for Xiliang.
After spending half a day like this, Princess Jin Yuan had heard enough music, and seeing that it was evening, Yihong Street was about to usher in the boiling time, considering that Pingle was the daughter of the Dalong clan, and it was too conspicuous to appear in the brothel at night, and it was easy to be criticized.
When she returned to the State Guesthouse, the princess opened her mouth to ask the good doctor, but she was very upset when she learned that she had not returned.
But she also understands and tolerates: "Miss Chenwei is a common person in Dalong, although she is not a person from Jinyang, but when she returns to her homeland, she will inevitably have to go out for a tour. ”
