Chapter 288 Chapter 157 Mind Exposed
After having lunch in Jintong Courtyard, Wei Shengxian returned home in a complicated mood, dismissed everyone, and only explained to his two daughters in private: "Your cousin suggested that it is better not to tie this family affair, and my mother also felt reasonable after listening to what she said." β
Song Xiyue said with a red face: "The daughter is up to her mother." "I don't ask why.
Wei Shengxian was very satisfied with his daughter's etiquette and understanding, and had to explain to the two of them: "Your cousin said that Deng Zongqi is a very good person, but his parents died, and he was mostly blessed by the concubine, and he will inevitably be affected by the concubine in the future." Roughly talked about the feud between the queen and the concubine in the palace and the current situation, sighed, "Actually, your cousin just said at the beginning I think this family business should not be over, throughout the ages, there is no simple thing when it comes to things in the palace, our family's own family affairs are so troublesome, how can I find you a husband who is also troublesome?" Not to mention the palace, yesterday your second aunt also whispered that Deng Zongqi's father had a grudge with the clan when he was there, and even their brothers and sisters suffered a lot......"
Song Ruxuan listened and couldn't help but remind: "Mother, since our family doesn't plan to give my sister to the son of the Deng family, what if the concubine takes a fancy to my sister?" β
Wei Shengxian said worriedly: "Your cousin is now pregnant and inconvenient to move around!" Your second aunt couldn't find any suitable people for a while...... Fortunately, Deng Zongqi is now in Xiliang, thinking that he is only the nephew of the concubine, not the prince. There is still the queen above the concubine, even if she has this heart, it is not easy to ask for the holy decree of marriage? Take advantage of this situation to find it again, it's really not good, I'll take you back to Fengzhou to save your relatives! When the time comes, your grandmother will be in charge! β
Saying that, Wei Shengxian was afraid of increasing the pressure on his daughters, so he hid Wei Changying's last reminder - Wei Changying said this: "The son of the Deng family is now far away in Xiliang, and it stands to reason that he will have to wait for him to return three years later." But the concubine is starting to look at each other now, obviously either Deng Gongzi entrusted this matter to the concubine when he left, or the concubine decided to give Deng Gongzi full authority to decide! No matter which one it is, you have to prevent the concubine from setting down Sister Yue first! β
This made Wei Shengxian even more worried, although Deng Zongqi made great achievements in Xiliang, and he still caught up with an excellent opportunity. However, it is always necessary to go to war...... Swords and guns have no eyes, Liu Jizhao, the sister-in-law of the Donghu Liu family, can die on the battlefield in Sangzidi, why can't Deng Zongqi, the son of the family and who has no foundation in Xiliang?
Not to mention whether he will be affected by any palace battles and bullying in the Deng clan after marrying his daughter to Deng Zongqi, in case Deng Zongqi has a good deal in Xiliang, his daughter will not even see her fiancΓ© at a glance and will first guard him as a widow - Wei Shengxian has just two daughters, who have been raised like flowers and jade for more than ten years, quiet and elegant, should they go to change to a cold chastity archway? !
Pretending to be calm to appease his daughters, Wei Shengxian always felt that his heart was beating suddenly and couldn't settle down, as if he had some ominous premonitions. However, if you want to refuse Deng Guifei's proposal as your nephew, unless Song Xiyue's marriage is finalized before the concubine mentions it. Otherwise, with Deng Zongqi himself and the face of the concubine, Wei Shengxian really couldn't think of any reliable reason to refuse.
"It's better to send someone to my husband's place and talk to my husband......" Wei Shengxian groaned, thinking secretly, "If something is wrong, I will first take them back to Fengzhou under the pretext of saving relatives, and ask my mother to find a way, my mother has always been resourceful and decisive, and there must be a way!" β
Thinking of the perfect mother-in-law in his mind, Wei Shengxian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and ordered someone to find a servant, and while sending a letter to his husband, he asked them to take care of their luggage and prepare to leave at any time.
She hastily made a countermeasure here, but she didn't know that someone in the palace had also noticed this-
Queen Gu took the osmanthus glutinous rice porridge presented by the little palace maid, ate two bites casually, and stuffed it into the little palace maid's hand: "I've rewarded you." β
The little palace maid hurriedly thanked her happily, took the porridge and retreated aside. Yun persuaded: "Niangniang has been working hard day and night for His Royal Highness the Prince's wedding these days, and she got up early this morning to receive the big gifts from the prince and the princess. How can I eat such a little bit a day today? β
"I'm tired." Welcome to Jiupin Literature, any search engine search "Jiupin Literature" can quickly enter this site, free of charge to provide high-quality reading and txt format download services! Queen Gu sighed and said, "I've been looking forward to finding a child's wedding before, and it's good to rest after being busy, it's good-looking:." I don't want to be idle now, but I have no appetite. β
"I've been boiling chicken soup in the small kitchen since last night, and it's made with ginseng, and it doesn't smell too much medicine. Or maybe the mother doesn't want to drink porridge and some soup? As Yun spoke, a clever palace man went out along the foot of the wall and went to the kitchen to get it.
Queen Gu didn't want to drink chicken soup either, but she couldn't help the Yun family's repeated persuasion, and after the palace people took it, they still drank most of the bowl, and the remaining half bowl was rewarded to the palace people who entered the soup.
In the end, the chicken soup made up for people, and the queen's complexion improved a lot after drinking it, so she wanted to talk about something serious, so she sent all the palace people except the Yun family away.
"There were a lot of things at the banquet yesterday, and the palace didn't have time to ask in detail, it is said that the Deng family called a Miss Song by his side and couldn't stop interrogating?" Empress Gu asked, "Which young lady of the Song family is it?" Don't be that one! β
Yun said: "The eldest lady of Jiangnan Hall's branch has been shrinking in the mansion since the accident. Previously, Mrs. Wei of the Shen family was pregnant, because Mrs. Wei was her cousin, it was rare to go there, but she also wore a hat to cover the front and back so that no one could see her face. Not to mention, if it weren't for her accident, she would have been the one who was envied by the audience yesterday, where would she enter the palace to congratulate? Reported sick as usual. β
"Which one is that?" So far, when it comes to Song Zaishui, Queen Gu still inevitably has some regret in her eyes, this is not the first time that the queen has revealed her satisfaction with Song Zaishui, the original prospective daughter-in-law, but Liu Ruoyu of the Liu family was re-elected as the crown princess - outsiders seem to have done it by Deng Guifei, and the Song family and the Wei family may think that it is their choice, but the Yun family knows that it is also Queen Gu's own meaning.
The Yun family was also puzzled by this, but since Empress Gu didn't tell her what she meant, the Yun family also knew that she shouldn't talk too much, so she replied: "It's the eldest daughter of Song Tong, the assassin of Ruanzhou, and her name is Xiyue." β
"Ruan Zhou is Zhongzhou, and the history of thorns is on the fourth grade." Empress Gu muttered, "If there is no Deng clan's layer, with Deng Zongqi, it will be more than enough!" After all, when his father died, he was just a loose official from the fourth grade. β
Yun said: "The maid also thought that the Deng family paid attention to this Song Xiyue, mostly for Deng Zongqi. It's just that Deng Zongqi is now in Xiliang, and it is said that after three years, he will return from his meritorious service, so he can take the opportunity to marry the daughter of Gaomen to strengthen his power! It seems a bit strange that Deng is looking for a candidate for him now. Or, is this Song Xiyue not looking for Deng Zongqi? β
Empress Gu narrowed her eyes and suddenly asked, "Before, Shenbo asked Nawei Lingyue to be the main concubine...... Has he changed his mind these days? β
"Nope!" The Yun family hurriedly said, "Niangniang is saying that the Deng family wants this Song Xiyue?" β
"Actually, if this palace thinks about it now, there is nothing wrong with Wei Lingyue giving Shen Bo." Empress Gu groaned, "After Wei Qi was defeated by Wei Huan, the two of them raised their old age in Fengzhou together. Zhibentang looks at the many heirs, but there is no very outstanding in the inside, these two years are not enough, after a year or two, if Weiqi can't recover, it will definitely show a trend of decline. It's Rui Yutang, that Wei Changfeng is very good in the rumors, and his sister Wei Changying is Shen Zangfeng's wife! Shen Xuan has also taken good care of Rui Yu Tang over the years, and the position of Situ has now fallen back into the hands of Rui Yu Tang...... Even if Wei Changfeng can't take over Rui Yutang, Wei Shengyi has been in charge for many years, and his scheming methods are not bad. β
Yun said: "Then, does Niangniang want to persuade the saint to agree to him?" β
"Speaking of which, it's all Song Zaishui who dragged Chenguang." Queen Gu frowned and said, "Originally, Xun'er should have gotten married last year, so in October this year, Shenbo will be sixteen, just marry him a concubine and send him to the fief." As a result, Xun'er didn't get married until yesterday, and Shenbo kept saying that he didn't dare to overtake his brother, but he didn't want to leave until now! It seems that he is going to drag out the marriage again-it may not be all about Wei Lingyue not marrying. β
The queen muttered, "It's just that if the Deng family pays attention to this Song Xiyue for Shenbo, what does she want to do?" Do you want Shen Bo to ask Song Xiyue to be the concubine? It doesn't matter whether it's Wei Lingyue or Song Xiyue, it's okay to be a queen, after all, the official positions of father and brother are not low, and they are all concubines! How can you delay Chenguang by changing your choice? β
Just asked, "Has Shenbo seen Song Xiyue?" Have you ever noticed her? β
Yun said: "Come on
