In the second room of the landlord of Herui Garden, the atmosphere is also solidifying.

Huang sat on the kang, glanced at the side with his eyes down, silently the maid Sanniang, his eyebrows finally piled up a pile of impatience, and the cover clock with tea noodles in his hand was a meal, and he gently put it on the kang table, only a crisp sound that was not loud when it fell into the porcelain tray, or shocked Sanniang's heart trembled, and her toes involuntarily rubbed back.

Huang slowly raised his eyelids, his eyes were calm, his tone was as gentle as usual, and he even sighed slightly: "I know that you are still unwilling in your heart, but that thing is really not to be thought of, your father originally said first, let me pay attention to the right people, Grandpa Guo has always loved you, and I will also be your mother, I will plan for you well, although the choice is not a relative of the emperor and the country, they are all called nobles, and the children are all talented and talented, and there will be no half of the grievances against you." ”

It turned out that since Wei Guogong spoke, let the Huang family pay attention to Sanniang's marriage, these days, the Huang family has also been quite concerned, although Aunt Cui is now out of favor and ill, Wei Guogong should know that Sanniang Xiao wants the three princes, and in anger, he has also said that he is not harsh, only to test the character, but Huang naturally knows that he can't take this seriously, if he really finds a poor son for Sanniang, others don't talk about her mother's mistreatment of concubines, after all, Wei Guogong has hurt Sanniang for many years, and he still can't bear to see his daughter's grievances.

Although Sanniang is a concubine, but the door of the Guogong Mansion is placed here, and it is not difficult to choose a second son in the family of someone who is slightly inferior in the court.

But the Huang family is used to being a "good mother", and when he is optimistic about several nobles, he wants to discuss with Sanniang and ask her about her plans, but after several conversations, Sanniang has such a sullen and depressed attitude, repeatedly delaying, but refusing to nod.

For example, right now, the words have been said to this point, but Sanniang held back such a sentence: "My daughter has been raised and cherished by her parents for many years, and she has not fulfilled her filial piety a little, she just wants to spend more time under her knees, and she is reluctant to leave her parents early." ”

Huang's heart is really impatient - Yijing in Bingzhou Zhufan's "actions" have long been spread, and now the nobles of Kyoto are full of praise for her, saying that there is the style of the eldest princess back then, and the women do not let the eyebrows, these days, back to attend the banquet, the ladies are full of light when they mention the beautiful scenery, but the Huang family knows that the three princes are so persistent, they will fight for this marriage.

Huang was already anxious.

As a woman's intuition, she has insight into the three princes' dedication to Yijing, which is by no means the same as that of Yichen back then, and is only regarded as a pawn in the Guogong Mansion. And Yijing's temperament, I don't know how much higher than Yichen, intelligence and intelligence should not be underestimated, it is by no means that she can master the control, the second brother claimed that with the means and abilities of the third prince, the chances of winning the prince are eight or ninety, if this is the future......

Su Xun has such a pair of sisters-in-law and sons-in-law to protect the air, but it is not conducive to her calculations.

Even the second brother, although he is the third prince's person, he is afraid that he will not be able to compete with Yijing's status in the hearts of the three princes in the future.

The Huang family really hopes that Sanniang can get involved in such a case, but at the moment, even if Sanniang has such a mind, she does not have such an ability.

How can you be impatient with Sanniang's hypocritical words of "for filial piety, unwilling to marry early"?

But the kindness on the face still had to pretend, Huang took a deep breath and smiled lightly: "It's that I misunderstood your child, but it's just that although you are out of filial piety, you also have to understand that this daughter's family is of marriage age, even if the parents are reluctant, they can't delay the child's life, not to mention that people like ours are here, and the order of the young and old has to be followed." ”

The point stopped, but Sanniang also understood the meaning of Huang's words in her heart - if you talk about the ranking of the big family, she is the third line, and the fourth mother is also discussing the kiss, and the fifth mother of the house is close behind, but it will be in time for a few days, and the two younger sisters are "pressing step by step" in the back, which allows Sanniang to delay hypocritically.

But Sanniang is really unwilling!

At the spring banquet of the Fuwang Mansion that day, she walked around a few gardens next to each other, and did not "meet" her sweetheart as she wished, but in Qinfang Garden, she happened to hear the words of the mother and daughter of the third prince's side concubine Kong, but what she said was another side concubine Ning, of course, there were no good words, such as how to be extremely charming in front of the three princes, and how much flattering gossip in front of the queen, in short, let Sanniang understand a message - it seems that in the prince's mansion, the more favored is the Ning family.

As soon as he turned around and walked not far away, he saw Ning's curling Tingting coming, Sanniang's heart moved, so she cleverly reminded: "Looking at it from a distance just now, it seems that Concubine Kong and the fourth lady are resting on the edge of the stone screen, but Niangniang is here to talk to them?" ”

In this way, he formed a "good fate" with Concubine Ning.

In the next few banquets, there was no shortage of coincidental encounters with Concubine Ning, Sanniang intended to curry favor, and the "good fate" became deeper and deeper, and finally found an opportunity to euphemistically express her admiration for the three princes.

Sanniang was desperate and seized all opportunities, but she didn't want to hit Concubine Ning's heart.

Of course, the position of the third princess will not be suspended for a long time, and she will have to marry a famous lady, Concubine Ning was originally the "eyes and ears" of the queen, and she can also touch the queen's thoughts.

But Wu Niang's identity is so noble, deeply favored by the eldest princess and the queen mother, it is said that she is a smart and clever person, and there is a talent in Kyoto Shuanghua, if she has such a talented and beautiful concubine who is born with honor, and the Kong family is closer to the queen in the end, once Wu Niang and Kong join forces, how can she Ning Concubine stand in the future, but I am afraid that it will be sooner or later to fall out of favor.

Sanniang is just a concubine in the end, look at this means that she is trying to be good with herself, if she helps her become the third princess, she will become a Kong family in the future, although she knows that marrying into the prince's mansion as Sanniang is not a small resistance, but for the future, but there is a chance to have a try.

When Concubine Ning thought of this, she did not refuse Sanniang's overtures, and even said words that she had the opportunity to help as much as she could, so that Sanniang saw a glimmer of hope again.

Naturally, she will not be satisfied with the few noble children of the Huang family, but she finally won a "help", although there is no substantial progress at the moment, she finally has a thought.

Originally, the Ning family also planned to leak the whereabouts of the three princes first, provide them to Sanniang, and strive for the opportunity to "meet", if the three princes had that will, this matter would be added a few points, and before it was planned, the three princes were sent to the state by a holy decree, so they had to give up for the time being.

For her own relatives, of course, Sanniang has to do her best to delay, especially when the third prince returns to Beijing.

But Huang's words obviously forced her into a difficult situation again.

Sanniang was worried, but someone took the initiative to relieve her.

But it was Mama Lan who entered and asked the Huang family to go to Yuanying Hall-

"Duchess Guo, someone has come to the palace, holding a holy decree in his hand, saying that it is awarded to Wu Niang, and Mrs. Tai invites you to go."

When Huang heard this, he was full of caution, and he was in no mood to pay attention to Sanniang for the time being, so he sent her back to his yard first, and hurriedly changed the clothes and crowns that the first-class wife wore when she received the order, and hurried to Yuanying Hall.

He also said that Sanniang was full of jealousy of the beautiful scenery and prosperity, and secretly wondered if it were not for the connivance and pampering of her grandmother and the queen mother, and changed to the boudoir woman next to her, she was so involved in political affairs, I was afraid that not only would she not be able to win the praise of others, but also have to bear the notoriety of "frivolous faux pas" and "uneasy boudoir".

But in this world, there are many people who are not right, how can there be justice.

But the maid next to her sighed again: "Wu Niang has made a great contribution this time, and it should be rewarded by the palace." ”

It made Sanniang even more impetuous, glared at the stupid girl who was talkative, but turned around and sent a clever one to Yuanyingtang to inquire what the purpose was.

Two moments later, news came back - but it was the decree of the saint, and he was enshrined as the lord of Guangping!

If this alone doesn't make Sanniang anxious, then when I hear the reason for this grace book-

First, of course, in the matter of merging the state, the eldest princess donated private property and purchased Artemisia annua in time to relieve the danger of the epidemic, and the saint intended to commend her, but the law of Dalong was determined, and only the daughter of the prince could be crowned as a princess, and the eldest princess's daughter Su Lian was already a favor by the county lord, and she could not add grace to Su Lian because the eldest princess had contributed to quelling the epidemic this time; In addition, when Yijing went to the same time this time, he should be aware of Shi De's crime of "corrupting ink and perverting the law", exert his wit and courage, and make great contributions to the fight against the epidemic, and it is natural for him to be grateful.

For this, Sanniang was only slightly unconvinced, and even more jealous.

What made her anxious was the second.

Yijing not only contributed to the suppression of the epidemic, but also helped the three princes in time when they were ambushed in Bingzhou, and the three princes had the grace to save their lives!

Undoubtedly, this is an imminent threat to Sanniang.

Now she finally faces up to one point - the beautiful scenery is the stumbling block on her marriage road, and her number one rival in love!

As the sister of the party concerned, who is also the daughter of the Guogong Mansion, Sanniang has never heard of the slightest rumor of "life-saving grace", let alone heard that the third prince was almost assassinated!

And the eldest princess has never entered the palace since she returned from the state, so naturally she has not had the opportunity to go to the Holy Lord to ask for merit for the beautiful scene.

Sanniang had a good understanding of her father's temperament of Wei Guogong, and immediately denied the possibility of her father asking for merit in front of the saint.

What does this mean?

It shows that the "life-saving grace" is very likely to be reported by the third prince himself.

Although Sanniang does not have much foresight in political affairs, she also understands that the assassination of the prince involves a wide range of issues, and under normal circumstances, before the real culprit is known, it will not be made public, not to mention that the incident happened far away in the state, and it has been a while since then, and there is no half a word of rumor before, indicating that there are not many people who know about this matter. Now, in order to justify the name of Yijing's grace book, the Heavenly Family has spread it widely regardless of the impact of the prince's assassination, which seems to show that the royal family attaches great importance to Yijing, the lord of Guangping.

Maybe the fifth sister, the county lord's grace, was personally invited by the third prince.

Whether it is the hero's rescue of beauty, or the grace of beauty, it is a "wonderful inducement" to achieve a good relationship, how can Sanniang take it lightly?

But even if you understand the direction of the threat, you can't do anything for a while, and you can't think of a good strategy to "turn defeat into victory", and you are just anxious and unwilling.

In addition to Sanniang, Huang was also shocked by the "life-saving grace", and his heart was a little cold, and he felt helpless.

Although the eldest princess did not expect this sudden grace, she thought that the assassination of the third prince of the Holy Admiral would be made public, and she must have good intentions, but she did not have any doubts.

When the second lady Li heard this, she was very excited about the beautiful scene, and took her two daughters to take the lead in going to Yuanying Hall to congratulate.

The third lady Xu didn't rush to add icing on the cake, because she also thought of the "marriage" and secretly sweated for the prince.

The holy decree was issued, and naturally it did not spread so quickly to the point where the streets were known and heard, but after this happy event, the Guogong Mansion couldn't hide its own servants and the Chu Wangfu of the opposite door.

The old princess always didn't pay much attention to other people's affairs, and after hearing about it, she just praised "Shangyuan is good at training people".

The general's wife, Xiao Xie, was a little bad - in the past, the Su family's five mothers were enough to be petted, and now there is the title of this county lord, and she will have to be pampered in the future, where can she dare to raise the majesty of this mother-in-law? Therefore, when he saw that his husband was excited, his son Yu Zhou was overjoyed, and the father and son were full of earnestness, they had to hurry up and go to the Guogong Mansion to propose their relatives first-

Compared with General Zhenguo, Yu Zhou is of course more anxious, and wants to take advantage of Yu Feng's late return to make the first move.

Xiao Xie was unwilling in his heart, and his mouth was a procrastinating word.

"Seeing that Wu Niang should be in a hurry, this time I will be in a hurry to mention it, it is too much of a trace, it is better to talk to the Huang family first when it is a ceremony."

General Zhenguo waved his big hand: "It's useless to look for her, how many times have I blamed you?" I still have to say it to my aunt, but my wife has a point, and the time to make a ceremony is an opportunity. ”

There is also a person who is excited, that is, Mama Song, her old man has lived a "seven-trick smoke" life since these years, I will not repeat it here, just say why Mama Song is excited? Of course, it was because I also thought of the "marriage" between the three princes and Yijing, and I was excited about Dongyu's future prospects.

In her opinion, the statement about Wu Niang's "outstanding contributions" really can't be taken seriously, can a boudoir woman have such ability? The matter of merging the state is obviously planned by the eldest princess behind her back, in order to add luster to Wu Niang's reputation, she also knows that Wu Niang practiced riding and archery, and secretly thought that it was possible to save the third prince by chance.

Of course, the saint is wise, and he must know that the credit for the state is in the princess, and the reason why he is kind to Wu Niang is that he is sympathetic to the princess's hard work, and then he comes to this grace book, and he will be full of Wu Niang's "precious life", and the three princes are not a perfect match?

It's really - the same thing, in everyone's eyes, the "truth" is varied.
