Chapter 174: Intended
The two men climbed the stairs, and the waiter hurriedly pushed the door open.
He took her hand and reminded her to cautiously cross the threshold.
After entering the door, Liang Yan began to eat snacks while shopping around as if visiting ancient buildings.
King Jing's Mansion is much larger than Li Xuanyi's current Shizi Mansion. I haven't seen the specifications of other palaces, but this Jingwangfu occupies most of the area.
Pavilions and pavilions, rockeries and strange stones, small bridges and flowing water, water pavilions in the center of the lake. The landscape layout is unique.
There is still a large area on the westernmost side of the palace, and there is no pavilion, but it is an empty flower garden, planted with all kinds of flowers and plants, and most of them are flowers and plants that can be used for medicine and are very ornamental.
"How did you grow so many herbs?" Liang Yan asked curiously while eating a snack.
Li Xuanyi glanced at her, "Don't you like it?" ”
Liang Yan shook her head, "No, I like it very much!" Before...... I look at herbs more than anyone else. ”
After speaking, she smiled first, in her previous life, she didn't think much about the boyfriend who was poached by her best friend, and she didn't think much about herbal medicine.
Now it's different for Li Xuanyi, this is the feeling that you really like a person, right?
Li Xuanyi touched her hair, and seemed to understand the loneliness in her tone, "In the future, I will always be by your side." ”
Liang Yan nodded, "Thank you......"
"Huh?"
"I love this medicine garden."
Medicine Garden, this is Medicine Garden, belongs to her and his Medicine Garden.
After visiting King Jing's Mansion, the overall pattern is very exquisite, and what the Holy God rewarded Li Xuanyi would naturally not be bad. Liang Yan doesn't understand furniture and the like, except for herbs, she doesn't have much research on the side of her.
Li Xuanyi handed it over to the housekeeper to arrange.
After reading the entire Jingwang Mansion, even the lunch meal has passed. The kitchen in the palace has not yet been opened, so Li Xuanyi took Liang Yan to the first floor to eat.
But I accidentally heard a news here, related to the Shangguan family.
It is said that the Shangguan family took a fancy to the house in Pingkangfang, but they have not succeeded for a while.
When Liang Yan heard the news in the hall, her footsteps paused slightly, but the person listening to the speaker quickly moved on to something else. She just walked forward again.
The two of them went up to the private room on the second floor one after the other, ordered the dishes, and when Xiao Er stepped back, there were only Liang Yan and Li Xuanyi in the private room, and she asked: "Is there any difference in Pingkangfang?" ”
Li Xuanyi took a sip of tea, "Pingkangfang is close to the palace, and there are only four families living in Pingkangfang, one is the prime minister, one is the princess of Danyang, the other is the general of Dingguo, and the other is the Wang family. Many of the heirs of the Wang family held important positions in the court. ”
"The Wang family?" Liang Yan inexplicably felt a little familiar.
Li Xuanyi nodded, "It's Shangguan Ruixing's maiden family who married the Xuxian Wang family." ”
Liang Yan nodded, "In this way, the people who can live in Pingkangfang are not ordinary people?" ”
Li Xuanyi smiled, "So to speak." The various squares adjacent to the palace were inhabited by the dignitaries of the court. The Shangguan family wants to buy a house in Pingkangfang, but they are actually handing out an attitude. ”
"The Shangguan family wants to be among the court?" Liang Yan said.
Li Xuanyi took a sip of tea, "When I wanted to come to Shangguan Ruixing to accept you as a righteous daughter and announce this matter with great fanfare, I had already started to prepare." ”
Liang Yan frowned and pondered, "I'm just a woman, and I don't have any foundation in the court, why did he choose me?" ”
"Maybe it's chance, and maybe I want to use you to test the attitude of the saint. If the Holy One does not allow it, you will not be allowed to serve as a woman and then hold the position of court. Li Xuanyi explained lightly.
Liang Yan nodded slightly, "In this way, does the Holy Lord mean to acquiesce to the Shangguan family?" ”
"We'll have to wait and see. The Shangguan family has always monopolized water transportation and shipping, so that the forces of the imperial court cannot intervene, and this change in the attitude of the Shangguan family may also be beneficial to the imperial court. After all, controlling water transportation is a very important matter for transporting grain from the south to the north. Li Xuanyi patiently explained.
"It's so complicated...... I thought that I was recognized as a righteous daughter because I cured Shangguan Yuanlong's illness......" Liang Yan muttered.
"Naturally, not only from the perspective of interests, but also your ability and character are also within the scope of his consideration." Li Xuanyi finished speaking.
I heard Xiao Er knocking on the door outside, "Lord Wang, the meal is ready!" ”
The two stopped talking, and Li Xuanyi let Xiao Er in.
After setting the meal, the two ate quietly.
At this moment, the leisure time is particularly beautiful, as if the sun has been dragged out of a soft arc, tiptoeing, quietly walking through the tiles of time.
After the meal, Liang Yan drank light tea and said: "I see that Renjitang's business is good, and I want to expand its scale, so I first set up branches in various shops in Chang'an, and then expand Renjitang's branches to the entire Dazhou. This will inevitably require a larger amount of medicine, and I would like to build a workshop to produce finished medicines...... Hmm, the pharmaceutical factory! ”
Li Xuanyi was stunned when she heard this, and gently held her hand resting on the table, "You can't be idle." ”
Liang Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at him and said, "Don't think that after I marry you, I will stay in the backyard and hate Chang Le!" I have to have my own things to do to make life better. ”
Li Xuanyi was amused by her tone, "Okay, it's all up to you." ”
Liang Yan smiled and pecked him lightly on the face, "Reward you!" ”
Li Xuanyi stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms, lowered his head and said, "This is too perfunctory, no, no." ”
He stretched out his hand to itch as he spoke, Liang Yan smiled softly in his arms, and he grabbed his lips and kissed him deeply.
In the afternoon, Liang Yan was sent home. Two mothers-in-law, one picks up in the front yard and the other does laundry in the backyard.
Zicao accompanied Lin Sanniang out of the East Market, but she didn't see Bai Wei.
Liang Yan pushed the door into her room, but saw Bai Wei in her room, sorting out her clothes.
Liang Yan was slightly stunned.
Bai Wei turned around, blessed her, and said with a smile: "Miss, you're back!" The lady instructed the maid to serve the young lady's daily life in the future, and if the young lady had anything to do, just tell the maid. ”
Liang Yan nodded, and looked at the clothes that she had organized, which were classified and stacked unusually neatly, and the wardrobes that she had sorted out seemed to be much more spacious.
"Okay, you go and get busy with something else, get up a little early in the morning, I'm sleepy at this time, I'll sleep for a while."
Liang Yan sent Bai Wei out, and fell asleep on the bed.
She was woken up by a burst of talking. I straightened up and listened carefully, the voice was a little familiar, but I couldn't remember who it was for a while.
She kicked the clogs next to the bed, rubbed her sleepy head, and was about to lie down at the window to see who was coming, but saw Bai Wei gently push the door in.
"Miss, it's the second lady of the Lin family who brought the young lady of the Lin family here." Bai Wei entered the house, closed the door and whispered.
Liang Yan nodded, the Lin family is here again? He was diligent enough to run.
Liang Yan asked Bai Wei to comb her hair, get dressed, and go to the main room.
The second lady of the Lin family, Bai Shi, was holding Lin Sanniang's hand and whispering something. Lin Susu knelt on the side, hanging her head, and playing with her fingers.
Comfrey served the tea soup, held the lacquer plate, and stood aside.
"Yo, is my aunt awake?" When Bai Shi saw her approaching, he immediately smiled all over his face, "Su Niang is thinking about you!" ”
When Lin Susu heard this, he immediately stood up, "Cousin, let's go outside, shall we?" ”
Liang Yan looked at Lin Sanniang's hesitant expression, and wondered if the Lin family had already revealed their plans when they came this time?
She smiled and knelt down on the side, "Don't be in a hurry to go out, I couldn't say a few words when I saw my second aunt last time, and I should accompany my second aunt this time!" ”
Bai nodded and smiled.
Lin Susu had no choice but to sit down on her knees boredly.
"What are the second aunts talking about with A-Niang?" Liang Yan asked.
The comfrey served the tea again in front of her, and looking at the tea on the table, Liang Yan was slightly stunned.
Comfrey smiled at her and stepped aside to stand still.
"I'm talking about you." Lin Sanniang said.
"My business? Then I should listen to it. Liang Yan took a sip of tea and smiled.
Bai's face was a little unnatural, but she quickly said with a smile: "Second aunt, this is to congratulate your mother, raising a promising daughter, I heard that the saint has given marriage, so that our sister-in-law and Princess Changle will marry into King Jing's Mansion on the same day, although she is not a prince...... It's a bit of a pity...... But she is the same princess as Princess Jing! This is unprecedented! Princess Changle is the daughter of the saint and the queen, and she is a princess! Our sister-in-law will also be on an equal footing with the princess in the future! Congratulations to the little sister, and congratulations to the mother-in-law! ”
Liang Yan bowed her head, "Thank you, second aunt!" ”
"Don't thank you, don't thank you!" Bai Shi looked around, and his smile narrowed slightly, "It's just that you mother and daughter, living here, is a little inconvenient." Although the second uncle is gone, we are all members of the Lin family! I can't write two Lin characters with one stroke. Although the third sister said that she was entrusted to a non-person when she was young, it has all passed, and if the second uncle is here, he will definitely have forgiven the little sister now! Little sister, you just relax! Let's talk to my sister-in-law and move to the Lin family. Living together as a family, it's good to have a care! ”
Sure enough, that's what the Lin family planned.
Liang Yan smiled and didn't squeak.
Lin Sanniang glanced at Liang Yan and hesitated for a while.
Bai Shi said again: "This place is small, and there are only a few people who serve them, and they are all women, how worry-free are they?" Besides, should you let your sister-in-law marry from here? Princess Changle got married from the palace, our concubine is not as good as Princess Changle, but it can't be too shabby, right? ”
Liang Yan looked around, this house adjacent to the medicine garden, the two are a little smaller, but it was still very generous to only live with their mother and son. and lives in the same place as the Gu family. Why can't she see what's shabby?
Lin Sanniang did not refuse, but she did not show the intention of agreeing, no matter how the Bai family persuaded her, she was vague.
Bai knew that he couldn't push it too hard, so he sat for a long time and left with Lin Susu.
When there were only two mother and daughter left in the house, Liang Yan looked at Lin Sanniang and asked, "What does A-Niang think?" ”
Lin Sanniang looked at her and sighed faintly: "It's not bad to move to the Lin family, it's just ...... Just ......"
Liang Yan raised her eyebrows, "What other requirements do they have?" ”
Lin Sanniang frowned and said, "They asked you to change your surname to Lin!" ”
Liang Yan was stunned when she heard this, and changed her surname to Lin? Let her be called Lin Yan?
