Chapter 588: The Princess's Domineering Aura
"Grandma, is it okay for our family to see you walking around in the future?" Snow Owl Thirteen Lang said with a bitter face, "The Lu family is a tiger's den, and the Meng family is a Longtan, you are in the middle of the night, Baba called me here, and let me break into these two places at one time!" Even if you play people, you don't want to toss like this! No, no, no. ”
"It's just to deliver a letter, and it's not for you to fight," Qing'er interjected, "Anyway, it's up to you whether to go or not, whether the antidote will be given to us, and when the time comes, it's itchy to scratch your ears and cheeks, don't come to us to ask for an antidote!" ”
When Xue Xiao heard that there was an antidote, his eyes lit up, and he asked He Angelica: "The antidote to our itch, girl, have you already made it?" ”
He Angelica said with a smile: "Although I have the ability to dispense antidotes, it is especially difficult to find raw materials for the antidote to this poison in yours, so I wrote to ask my uncle and asked him to help inquire." But Xue Xiaojun, you are lazy to run errands, so there is no way, so just forget it. ”
It turned out that the snow owl, who prided himself on being an old man, also capsized in the gutter when he was in Qingzhou, and fell into someone else's way. Zheng, the leader of the rebels, was not at ease when he opposed him, and felt that his defection might have ulterior motives, so he put a strange poison in his diet, and his skin was bright red and itching, and he could not be relieved by scratching his skin. At that time, Luo Baishao used to play with Diao Yam compared to this poison, but it was not enough to see at all, because although this poison only occurs once every half a month, but it is more powerful than one time, only some short-term antidotes for delaying symptoms, but can not eradicate the toxicity, every time it occurs, the poison will go deeper, which can be called a poison without an antidote. The snow owl, a kite flying in the sky, was also tied to the line.
In Qingzhou, as soon as Qing'er was kidnapped by him, he was poisoned and in pain, so Qing'er tied him with a rope and won a small game without blood. The snow owl coveted the temporary antidote to He Angelica, so he had to silently follow their convoy back to the capital.
Xue Xiao also secretly hid some antidotes, and asked the pharmacy master of the pharmacy to dispense, but for some reason, the anti-itching effect was not as good as Angelica's "original medicine", so he firmly believed that He Angelica was the best medicine, so he disguised himself as an accompanying servant and followed him from Qingzhou to the capital. He Angelica felt that a servant who could fly without spending money, and it didn't hurt to follow if he was willing to follow, but after Meng Xuan recognized the snow owl, he wanted to dismantle his kite, but was stopped by He Angelica, saying that she could handle it and didn't have to worry about her husband. So Meng Xuan called two more secret whistles, focusing on the snow owl and watching his small movements.
The snow owl is not stupid, of course he knows that He Angelica is not so kind, and specially asked Lu Jiangbei to prepare an antidote for such a small role as him, but at least He Angelica has verbally promised to find a way to do the antidote, so how dare the snow owl not be attentive.
He laughed dryly and said: "People are under the eaves, I have to bow my head, our family is an expert in delivering letters, of course we are willing to serve the girl, but in the past, I went undercover in the Jinyi Guard, and deeply offended General Lu, General Duan and General Liao, so after entering Beijing this time, our family didn't do anything, and I felt cold in the back of my head." ”
"Who cares about you," Qing'er sneered, "this is called retribution." ”
He Angelica said lightly: "When I meet them, you only say that you will help me run an errand now, maybe they will look at my face, but if it is not good, I can also say two words of love." Okay, it's dawn to don't deliver the letter anymore, go quickly. ”
The snow owl had to come down, feeling really aggrieved to be shouted by such a little girl.
He Angelica finally instructed: "If my uncle is there, I will wait for a reply; In my absence, you handed the letter to his cousin Lu Yao and asked him to write a reply at will as a proof that you have completed the task honestly - the employment relationship between you and me has not been established for a long time, and there is a lack of trust on both sides. ”
The snow owl raised his hand to ensure that he was not strange (only strange).
He Angelica smiled and said: "That's good, as for the letter to the Seventh Prince, just throw a dart and throw it on his table, it's not very important, you don't have to wait for his reply." ”
Xue Xiao scolded in his heart,, you husband and wife gossip, you have to let our family walk through the Meng family's Longtan with fear, you said it strangely light, I threw Meng Xuan's table with a dart, do you know if he doesn't throw my head back? But he said respectfully: "Our family will send a reply letter tomorrow, the girl should rest in peace as soon as possible, the antidote depends on the girl, please bother." ”
He Angelica gathered the packets of medicinal herbs and nodded: "How much loyalty you have, how much trouble I have." Take care on the road, Snow Owl. ”
The snow owl's dark cloak melted violently into the night, and Qing'er asked puzzledly: "Xiaoyi, why don't you ask Meng Xuan to beat him up and go back to his hometown?" A guy like him who is in the twilight of Qin and Yang and Yin is disobedient, don't want him to be loyal for the rest of his life. ”
He Angelica's phoenix eyes seemed to be closed, and said: "The secret on his body has not been solved yet, so he is still useful." A useful person can live longer, even if he is not right-minded. "In fact, the letters sent to the Lu family and the Meng family are not confidential letterheads that need to be delivered at the door of the third watch in the middle of the night. This time it's just a test of the snow owl's ability to lay the foundation for the next time he touches the palace.
Qing'er secretly sweated, feeling that Xiaoyi had passed through the trip to Qingzhou, and she was much more domineering and stable than before, she was the reincarnation of the unlucky tenth princess, could it be that this is the legendary "king overlord spirit" exclusive to people in the royal family?
※※※
If two days have passed, it is already the time for marriage. How did the Meng family internally digest the Xiancao County Lord proposed by Mrs. Su, outsiders don't know, however, on the morning of April 30, the second master Meng Qi married Wen Li, the second master Meng Zao married the king of the side room, the fourth master Meng Zao married Liu Zhi of the main room, and the seventh master Meng Xuan married Zhu Qingning, the county lord of Qingning. The family affairs were prepared a few days earlier, and they were done together when Meng Xuan went home, so they didn't come in a hurry, but the political atmosphere in Beijing in April was tense, and the red and white affairs of each family were all simplified.
The old lady of the Meng family, Mei, is seventy-two years old this year, and is the daughter of the Mei family, a relative of the imperial family, and has two sons, Meng Shan, Meng Xi and a daughter, Meng Yuer. This Meng Yuer was widowed at the age of forty, entered the Meng family's family temple in Xicheng to practice, and often took the old lady to live there. When the old lady was young, she was greedy for meat, so she fell into several diseases of wealth and wealth, and every time she stayed in the family temple and listened to the scriptures, she felt that people were also refreshed. Moreover, the master who makes vegetarian dishes in the temple is very skilled, and the taste is no worse than meat, and the old lady gradually turned the small residence into a long stay.
But today, there is a wedding banquet for her three grandsons in the Meng Mansion, and this old man who likes to be lively will definitely not miss it. Last night, a small sedan chair from the west of the city to the south of the city took the old lady home. Originally, I had to pick up my aunt's wife Meng Yuer to have a cup of wine, but my aunt's wife, who knew how to help her, had a hexagram: avoid traveling, there are sinuses in the southeast (doubtful sinus, uncertain factors). So she insisted on refusing to leave the temple, and besides, she was also a person who had been shaved, so she gave up.
The lively sound of gongs and drums sounded in the courtyard of the Meng family, and a forty-person troupe sent by the in-laws and merchants to set up a stage in front of the atrium corridor and sang early in the morning. When Meng Xuan walked through the corridor, he happened to hear a sentence "The crescent moon is like a beautiful woman, and the moon is like a beautiful woman; The new moon is like a beautiful woman, and she is colored at the beginning of the sea", which made him distracted for a while, and remembered the last time he saw He Angelica sitting in a sedan chair dressed in red. Meng Chen, who was walking behind, patted him and reminded him that it was not too early, and the welcoming team was already waiting, so Meng Xuan hurried away.
In the midst of the hustle and bustle, the relatives of the clan came in an endless stream, and for a while the carriages and horses filled the door and sent them to usher, saying "great joy and great joy", and said "rejoicing and rejoicing".
The famous eleven tigers of the Meng family, except for the "big tiger" Meng Xian who led the troops back to Huguang and came back in time to watch the ceremony, the rest of the ten tigers were impressively seated, which can be called a grand occasion that has not been encountered in three years. When the relatives who had already been trusted and the female relatives of the family of the world friends made a special trip to congratulate them, they did not forget to bring their daughters who had not yet left the cabinet, and their meaning was self-evident. While listening to the play, Mrs. Su and Aunt Hong watched and listened to all directions, quietly observing the words and deeds of those girls.
The brothers of the Meng family, except for the three who were going to greet their relatives, the rest were all wearing hand-embroidered kudzu shirts with silver threads, and the seven young sons who brushed together walked out, shaking the eyes of many people. They received Mrs. Su's public assignment task, accompanied by the side, and had to attend all day, among them, a few of them couldn't sit still, such as Meng Yu and Meng Xiao, all of them had a wry smile on their faces at the moment, tilting their heads left and right, but they did not lose their handsome demeanor at all, and they had a lazy style. There were already a few daughters of the official family who saw that their eyes were moist, their eyes were red, and they whispered: This must be a fairyland, and this is the dream country that every girl pursues!
Because the stage was full of new plays this season, and most of the guests who came were watching the show, it gradually became noisy, and the audience became second. Under the eaves of the atrium, the largest number of female guests gathered, and Mrs. Su saw that the old lady also watched with relish, so she simply asked people to separate a group of red sandalwood opera screens in the back building, and a banquet was also set up inside.
The first table was an old lady, accompanied by Meng Shan's concubine; The following are the daughters of the family, the girls of relatives, the daughters of Mrs. Su and her children and grandchildren, the daughters of the family of the world, and the daughters of the rest of the official families. Although it is known as simple, the wedding card is only scattered out of a hundred, but before noon, the guests have been full of fifty tables, everyone laughs and groans to watch the play, meet people, and look at the scenery happily, others also regard them as scenery, and the guests and hosts are happy for a while.
The "pseudo-county lord's mansion" in the east of the city was also busy in the morning.
A set of saffron Luo Su embroidered gold-edged wedding dress, is hired by several masters to make out at night, Lan is not good at female red, can only twist a thread from the side, dial a set of lights, sometimes with a big belly, personally pour tea for the tailors, it is considered to add her mind to the wedding dress. The dowry of gold, silver, fine and soft and other colors purchased at a cost of two thousand taels entered the Meng family three hours earlier than the sedan chair, and now only the bride herself is missing.
On the fourth watch, He Angelica was awakened by mint and hawthorn, and after washing with herb soup, the two girls combed her a gorgeous crescent moon bun, and also wore the phoenix crown that she had not worn last time, and inlaid nineteen equally large South China Sea pearls. A half-person-high water mirror was lifted over, and the girl in the mirror with gorgeous makeup and low temples was covered in red, and she was also looking back at her with a pair of watery eyes, with a faint smile on her lips.
