It turned out that Mrs. Tai was annoyed that she didn't tell her about Shen Yu's overnight stay here in time...... Izuku hurriedly explained: "My uncle came too late last night, and you have already rested, so I thought about not disturbing you......"

"But how did I hear that when you went to visit King Cheng's Mansion last night, he had already informed you? Then why didn't you tell me in advance when you got home? Mrs. Tai asked again in a condensed voice, obviously very displeased.

As soon as he finished saying this, Izumi immediately understood that Shen Yu said something that should not be said...... So she glared at Shen Yu hatefully, and then replied to Mrs. Tai: "I was careless about this matter, I originally thought it was not a big deal, and I will report it to you this morning." ”

"I didn't see you this morning." Mrs. Tai's face was even darker, and she pointed to Shen Yu on her right: "If he hadn't come to ask for peace on his own, I wouldn't have known that he stayed in the wing room of the outer courtyard last night, and besides, Nie Qi had promised him to be the Marquis of Weiyuan." ”

Izumi bit her lip and didn't explain again, not to mention that she was also at fault for this matter, so she had no way to explain it, so she had to admit her mistake speechlessly.

Mrs. Tai didn't seem to have reprimanded herself, and she was quite angry: "The night before, when you came back from the banquet in King Cheng's mansion, you only said that your heart was burned, and you didn't say a word about Shen Yu!" Although the will of Jin Feng has not yet been issued, you dare to hide such a big matter from me? He is still from General Sanpin, you let an uncle with an official position stay in the outer courtyard, so snub him, what will the people think? Is this in line with the rules of Yunfu? ”

Out of Xiu was reprimanded speechless, and she was not afraid of losing face in front of Shen Yu, so she had to reply respectfully: "Don't be angry, I'll let my subordinates clean up the eldest lady's Nishang Pavilion, and my uncle can live in it tonight." ”

"Still called uncle?" Mrs. Tai suddenly raised her voice and slapped her right hand on the table.

Izumi was startled, and then saw that Shen Yu looked like he didn't care about himself, and he was even more annoyed, so he asked Mrs. Tai in a low voice: "If you don't call him 'uncle', what should you call it?" ”

"Do you need to ask me?" Mrs. Tai coldly asked this question, and Xiu was confused.

At this moment, Shen Yu, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally spoke "at the right time" and smiled to ease the atmosphere: "Don't make any noise about her, I was going to sleep in the outer courtyard last night." In the past, when I lived in Yunfu, I also fell asleep in the outer courtyard, and I got used to sleeping. ”

"She's confused, are you confused too?" Mrs. Tai turned to reprimand Shen Yu: "What was your identity before? What is the status now? Do you think it's appropriate to sleep in the outer yard? ”

"It's not quite right." Shen Yu remained silent, and made a look of sudden realization: "I owe it to consideration." ”

Mrs. Tai calmed down her emotions, looked him up and down again, and said again quite critically: "I just held back and wanted to ask you, where did you get this dress?" The material is poor, and it is loose, so you come to see me dressed like this? Is this a salute to me? ”

Hearing this, Shen Yu immediately glanced at Chuxiu with his spare eyes, but replied to Mrs. Tai: "It rained heavily last night, and it rained on the road when I came, this is the clothes that Steward Yun found for me, or new." I can't come to you in wet clothes! ”

Mrs. Tai reluctantly said "um", groaned and asked, "How many days do you plan to stay here?" ”

"I can't say for sure." Shen Yu pretended to sigh: "The Holy Servant is out on patrol, and I don't know how to arrange it next." If he really wants to canonize me as the Marquis of Weiyuan, I'm afraid I will have to go back to Beijing to be crowned, and now I really can't say what the day will be. ”

Mrs. Tai waved her hand when she heard this: "That is, how many days do you have to live?" Okay, let Yunjinzhuang hurry up to make a few clothes, you can wear them after all. ”

Shen Yu hurriedly smiled back at Mrs. Tai as if flattering: "Thank you for your compassion, if you really want to talk about me, the nominal uncle, or your old man who cherishes me the most...... As for the others, it is obvious that they do not take me to heart. After saying that, he deliberately looked at Xiu, meaning something.

Mrs. Tai also smiled faintly, followed his gaze and raised her hand to show Xiu: "I'll leave this matter to you, get him some clothes." What material to use and what style, you can ask Yunfeng. ”

Yun Feng used to be the general manager of Yun Jinzhuang, and he was most familiar with the material of clothing. But what Chuxiu didn't understand was, why did Mrs. Tai arrange this matter for herself? Isn't it okay to assign it directly to Yun Feng? Why let yourself get out of it again?

Izumi felt that Mrs. Tai was very abnormal today, and she was a little puzzled, but at this time, she heard a report from outside the dining room, which happened to be the housekeeper Yunfeng: "Mrs. Tai, Mrs., Uncle, there is a greeting post from the Chengwang Mansion." ”

Sending a greeting post? Could it be...... Mrs. Tai and Izuku both immediately lifted their spirits, glanced at each other, and greeted in unison, "Come in." ”

Yun Feng respectfully walked behind Mrs. Tai, bowed down and handed the gilded greeting post in his hand to her, and then said: "Nanxi Tianzhi Emperor Weifu went out to Yanlan City, and I want to make a special trip to visit, so you can pick a day." ”

These words gave Mrs. Xie enough face. The Yun family has now bowed down to the Emperor of Heaven, and has greatly supported him to ascend the throne, thinking that he will be dignified Emperor Nanxi to come to the Yun family, and he even has to send a post, regardless of his own daily opportunities, please ask Mrs. Tai to pick a day to meet, which shows the respect of the week of the ceremony.

The more Mrs. Tai thought about it, the more she felt useful, and her face, which had been cold, improved. She opened the post and looked at it carefully, the handwriting was not written by Nie Qi, but it was in his tone, and it should have been written by someone else. There were only a few words on the post, which basically said that the Emperor of Heaven would personally come to greet Mrs. Xie, and finally attached a few recent auspicious days for the host to choose one.

Mrs. Tai's eyes swept away, and the three auspicious days were all within ten days, that is to say, Nie Qi would only live in Fangzhou for ten days at most. Welcoming the arrival of the true dragon emperor, this is indeed not something that ordinary people can afford, if it is not for the people who are deeply blessed, they may also die because of this.

Naturally, the Yun clan can afford this courtesy. Mrs. Tai thought for a while, and then asked Chu Xiu again: "If I set up a banquet to entertain Nie Qi in seven days, will you have time to prepare?" ”

Izuku pondered for a moment, carefully calculated the time, and nodded, "It should be in time." It's just that there are a few dishes that are a bit more troublesome. ”

Mrs. Tai impatiently taught Xiu again: "He is the Son of Heaven, what dishes have you not eaten?" The Buddha jumped over the wall and cooked for three or four days, do you still have to cook it for ten days or eight days? ”

Out of Xiu could only smile and receive the order: "That should be in time." ”

Mrs. Tai thought for a moment, and then instructed: "The banquet room must be rearranged, and all the things that should be replaced are replaced with new ones." ”

"You can rest assured that I will save my money." Izuku solemnly returned.

Mrs. Tai nodded, then closed the prayer post and pressed it on the table, and said to Yun Feng: "You go to King Cheng's Mansion in person to reply, and after seven days, the Yun Mansion will wait for the holy driver." ”

Yun Feng was also very nervous, since he took over the position of the head of the Lixinhou Mansion, this can be regarded as the most important guest he has ever received. He cautiously said yes, and hurried to prepare to reply.

Mrs. Tai looked steady, and looked at Xiu with a smile: "Cheng'er is also fourteen years old this year, and I want to ask for a marriage for him by taking the opportunity of Nie Qi's visit this time." ”

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thought of going together, and Chuxiu couldn't help but hide her face and smile: "I won't tell you, when I went to King Cheng's Mansion for a banquet the night before, I had already made this mouth on my own initiative." ”

"Oh? How did Nie Qi reply? "Mrs. Tai is interested.

Izuku shook his head: "He was noncommittal, he didn't agree or refuse. ”

"That's a play!" Mrs. Tai was quite confident: "I want to ask him to point out the young daughter of Zuo Xiang Zhuang Qin to Cheng'er, what do you think?" ”

Zuo Xiang Zhuang Qin? The father-in-law of the Heavenly Emperor? Izuku and Shen Yu were both taken aback: "You want to marry the Zhuang family?" ”

Mrs. Tai nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Zhuang Qin is the national abbot, and his daughter-in-law is Nie Qi's sister-in-law." If this thing is really done, you will be a generation higher than Nie Qizu. ”

Izumi couldn't laugh or cry when she heard this, and the annoyance that had just arisen because of Shen Yu gradually subsided, and she began to carefully consider the feasibility of this family business.

On the contrary, Shen Yu suddenly reminded: "But I remember that Zhuang Xiang's daughter is a concubine ......."

"That also depends on whose daughter is the daughter." Mrs. Tai has thought it clearly: "Zhuang Yiran is fourteen years old this year, the same age as Cheng'er, although she is a concubine, but after all, she is the sister-in-law of the queen Zhuang Xiaoran. Besides, when it comes to bloodline, Cheng'er is also inherited, and it is also suitable for Zhuang Yiran. ”

"I'm afraid that the Heavenly Emperor will not agree." Izumi had a lot of worries and felt that this move was very difficult. Of course, if Yun Cheng can marry the sister of the queen of the current dynasty, then he will become a brother-in-law with the Emperor of Heaven, which is naturally the best.

"I'm not afraid he won't agree." Mrs. Tai is confident and confident: "Now that Nie Qi has ascended the throne for the first time, he has ambitions to unify the north and the south. As long as he has this plan, he will inevitably need the support of the Yun family, I think there is a drama in this matter! ”

Since Mrs. Tai was so determined, it was difficult for Chu Xiu to say anything, so she just said: "I will send someone to inquire about Zhuang Yiran's character and appearance today." ”

"The girls taught by the Zhuang family are not bad in appearance." Mrs. Tai commented, thought about it, and said with a faint smile: "Those who have big ambitions get middle ambitions, and those who have medium aspirations get small ambitions...... If the attempt to marry Zhuang Yiran fails, there is a second candidate in my heart, and if I retreat to the second, Nie Qi should agree. ”

"It turns out that you still have a trick, I'm really taught." Shen Yu was extremely impressed, and asked curiously: "Who is the second choice in your heart?" ”

This time, Mrs. Tai sold Guan Zi instead: "Let's take the first choice as the main choice, if it doesn't work, you will know who the candidate is sooner or later; If it happens, don't mention this alternative, so as not to ruin the reputation of other girls. ”

"Or are you thoughtful." Shen Yu nodded in agreement.

Mrs. Tai pursed her lips and snorted coldly again: "Don't just say good and obedient words to make me happy, my old woman has a grudge, you used to be against me, I remember it clearly." ”

This was said very bluntly, and Shen Yu was also greatly embarrassed. In the past, when Yun Ci was alive, the relationship between the mother and son was estranged, and he always stood on Yun Ci's side; Later, Yun Ci died, and Mrs. Tai wanted to let Chu Xiu marry in, but he also resisted greatly, and even said many disrespectful words to Mrs. Tai.

In fact, until this moment, Shen Yu didn't know whether he was right or wrong at the beginning. signed that marriage letter as a matchmaker, did he bring himself closer to Izumi? Or is it pushed further?

For a moment, the three of them had their own thoughts, and they all fell silent. After a while, Mrs. Tai knocked on the table with chopsticks first, and said to Chuxiu: "I see that you don't have any appetite, so you can go back and prepare for the banquet seven days later." If you want to eat and drink, there are also cooks in Zhiyan Xuan. ”

Izumi really didn't have much appetite at the moment, and her mind was full of the granddaughter-in-law candidate that Mrs. Tai fancied, so she said, "Then I'll retire first." ”

Mrs. Tai took the opportunity to look at Shen Yu again: "You are still the uncle of the Yun family now, so naturally you have to contribute to the Yun family." This time Nie Qi came to the door in person, you go and give Xiu a hand. ”
