Chapter 161: The Su Family Proposes Marriage
The queen knew that Song Rongjin was obsessed with Xie Chen, although she felt that Xie Chen's temperament was not a good match, she still couldn't stand Song Rongjin's hard work.
The queen said: "This palace sees that your face is not good, except for the younger brother, there is no one in your house to serve, why don't you let Jin'er and a prince go to have a break with General Xie?" ”
Xie Chen's expression was stunned, the queen came prepared this time, if he just let Song Rongjin come to the mansion by himself, he still had a reason to refuse, and now there is a prince, if he still pushes it, it will be a refutation of His Majesty's face.
Xie Chen glanced at Song Rongjin, who was excited, and lowered his eyes: "Thank you for your compassion." ”
There was an eye-catching vase in the Quandang Mansion, which didn't matter to Xie Chen, he was just curious, which prince would the queen send to do this errand......
The queen's eyes fell on Song Jue, the third prince who was eating silently on the side: "Jue'er, you are the most careful of all the princes, you can go with Jin'er." ”
Everyone's eyes fell on Song Jue, faintly sympathetic, Song Jue was stunned for a moment, and then smiled gently: "Yes." ”
Seeing that Xie Chen responded, His Majesty and the Empress's faces looked a little better, and the emperor smiled and said: "This time to quell the barbarian war, Aiqing has made a great contribution, I haven't asked you yet, what reward do you want?"
Xie Chen looked stunned and said with a smile: "Can the minister go to the treasury to choose by himself?"
Xie Chen's words made the emperor stunned, Xie Chen was not interested in those things outside his body, thinking that he was looking at some treasures, the emperor didn't pick the door, and said with a smile: "Okay, when the banquet is over, let the little forest beside me take you to choose by yourself." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”
Xie Chen remembered that a few years ago, he had obtained a good material from the Miaojiang War, which was woven from special ice silk, and if it was made into a fairy skirt and worn on a woman's body, it seemed to be covered with a layer of soft mist, as if a fairy descended to earth.
This rare material in the world, the eldest princess once begged her to give it to her, but her majesty did not give it to her, if it was made into clothes and worn on her body......
-
The day before the engagement, Lu Yu returned to the courtyard from Xie Mansion early, and as she expected, someone from the second room came.
The person who came was the maid next to Lu Wange, and said with a smile: "Ming'er is the day when the second son of Sufu comes to propose marriage, tomorrow's banquet, the second lady dresses up well, don't be late, our second lady specially made a cloud brocade dress for the young lady to find the best embroidery girl in Beijing, our family said, you are a sister, don't embarrass her!"
After the maid left, Ling Yue snorted and said angrily: "Do you still use them to teach this truth? Isn't this deliberately humiliating!"
Lu Yu saw that Ling Yueqi's face turned red, and sighed helplessly, he didn't blame them for being angry, Lu Wange's thoughts of showing off with her could hardly be hidden, and now he deliberately came to the door to humiliate people, which was too deceitful.
Mama Zhao sighed: "Miss, they expected that you wouldn't be able to take out beautiful clothes and jewelry, deliberately!"
Although Lu Yu's food and clothing are not worse than ordinary maidens, they are just some common clothes for everyone's daughters, nothing special, and the same is true for jewelry, even Lu Wanyu can't compare. Tomorrow's banquet, whether she goes or not, whatever she wears is destined to be laughed at.
In this regard, Mama Zhao was helpless.
Lu Yu was light: "For the engagement banquet of others, I just went through the motions, it doesn't matter what I wear." ”
"But Miss Third will not let go of this opportunity to laugh at you. ”
"Laugh at me, tomorrow I only need to dress politely, if she is not afraid of losing a mean reputation, even if she troubles me. ”
Lu Wange's little trick Lu Yu didn't see it, and at this time, the gatekeeper outside the house suddenly came.
"Second Miss, someone has sent you a burden. ”
Lu Yu was stunned: "Who sent it?"
"The minions don't know either, they just say it's for you. ”
Lu Yu asked Mama Zhao to accept the package and bring it into the room, Lu Yu wanted to reach out to solve it, but was stopped by Mama Zhao: "Miss, be careful of fraud." ”
"Who's going to hurt me, I look inside like a garment. ”
Lu Yu smiled and was about to unpack the baggage, but suddenly thought of something, and his movements stopped.
Could it be that Old Man Feng is settling accounts after the autumn, right? Could it be some kind of strange secret weapon in this baggage?
The master and servant stared at the burden for a long time, and finally Lu Yu came to a conclusion, this is a dress!
After Lu Yu untied it, he and Mama Zhao were stunned.
Mama Zhao exclaimed uncontrollably: "The old slave has lived for most of his life, and he has worked in the Huanyi Workshop for decades, and he has never seen such a beautiful skirt." ”
Lu Yu was also a little surprised, not to mention Mama Zhao, she had never seen this kind of material in her two lifetimes, the outermost layer seemed to be a layer of soft mist, the hem of the sleeves and feet of the skirt was a gradient of smoke, ingenious, lined with a light purple fairy skirt, which seemed to be covered with starlight, and would be slightly starlit in the candlelight.
On the lower layer of the clothes, there was a box, and when Lu Yu opened it, it was a complete set of jewelry, just looking at the condition, it was absolutely valuable.
Mama Zhao was shocked and said, "Who will give you such a precious dress?"
Lu Yu was silent, such a precious thing, there are only a handful of things that can be taken out in Huajing...... If it is deliberately aimed at Su Changfeng or Lu Wange, it is reasonable, if it is to help her, except for Xie Chen, I am afraid that there will be no one else.
Lu Yu said: "Don't care who sent it, send it to me at this time, you can imagine what the intention is, since this is the case, I don't want to spoil people's minds, so I'll try it instead." ”
......
The next day, Su Changfeng of the Su family personally came to the door to hire him, and the dowry was sixty-four lifts, and there had never been a concubine in Beijing who had such treatment.
The reason why the Su family married a concubine so generously was to prove Su Changfeng's determination to marry Lu Wange like Lu Fu.
As a result, Lu Yu, who was rejected by Su Changfeng rather than death, was inevitably taken out by the guests again.
"is also a concubine, the second son of Su would rather die than marry Lu Yu, but he was so solemnly hired to marry Lu Wange, tsk. ”
"Lu Yu was picked up later, from the countryside, you don't have to think about it, you know that it's ugly and vulgar, how can you compare it with Lu Wange?"
These people had never seen Lu Yu, but from what they heard from the mouths of others, they could guess how unbearable this second lady was.
Master Lu and the eldest lady and the second lady greeted the Su family in the front hall, and everyone who went to the banquet in the backyard arranged Lu Yu wantonly with a word, and after Su Changfeng was over, he came over, and Lu Wange, who was finely dressed, also walked out with the old lady.
Everyone stepped forward to say goodbye, and one of the young men said, "Miss Lu San, where is your eldest sister?"
Those who came to the banquet today, in addition to the congratulatory ones, many people came for the Lu Wanjun who everyone in Beijing praised, and Miss Lu is not young now, what if she falls in love with their son?
