Chapter Seventy-Seven: If You Want to Get Married!
"Congratulations, a fart, a nonsense, a nonsense!" Fan Xian was so annoyed when he thought of having something wrong again, and even learned Chen Pingping's mantra to the fullest, and scolded with a smile: "Those old ladies eat too many pickles and are not afraid of exhausting us errand runners." ”
Lin Wen was taken aback, thinking that what a great rebellion this said was, and hurriedly explained: "The affairs of the imperial court have the rules of the imperial court. But the affairs of the palace have their own channels in the palace, and adults should not care too much. ”
Fan Xian nodded, thinking that although this marriage seemed to be a bit nonsense, seeing that the two courts were so anxious, it was also a situation that everyone wanted to see. It's just that Nanqing and Northern Qi are called the two great powers in the world, if these two countries are married, those small emperors who hide in the remote places and spend their days snickering are afraid that they will not be happy, of course, the most headache should be Dongyi City, which is guarded by a sword and a sword.
"By the way, you just said that I had a happy event?" Fan Xian frowned, not knowing how happy he was with the marriage of the eldest prince who was scheduled to return to Beijing in the early autumn.
Lin Jing and Lin Wen glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency has read the letter from the imperial court. "According to the usual practice, when the imperial court sends a letter, if the envoy is not there, Lin Jing, as the deputy envoy, has the right to open it first.
"Say it. Fan Xian rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little uneasy from nowhere, and this feeling became stronger and stronger.
"Yes. Lin Jing responded, and said with a smile: "After the marriage of the eldest prince is decided, the marriage of the second highness is also decided, Your Majesty has a decree, and the marriage between the second prince and Ye Ling'er, the young lady of the Ye family who guards Kyoto, is scheduled for next spring." ”
Fan Xian was slightly stunned and sighed. He had seen the second prince and knew that the second prince had read poetry and books, but he had a restless heart. At this time, I heard that Ye Ling'er was going to marry the second prince, and I couldn't help but be a little worried about Ye Ling'er, and at the same time I was thinking about what His Majesty the emperor wanted to do...... Change the prince?
Fan Xian's heart was shocked, but his face was unusually calm, and he tilted his head slightly and said, "What does this have to do with this official?"
Lin Wen smiled flatteringly before his brother: "Congratulations to Lord Fan, congratulations to Lord Fan, Your Majesty? Generally knowledgeable, specially given to marry Li Hongcheng, the son of King Jing......"
......
......
Miss Guifu? Fan Xian was a little confused, a little stupid. Which mansion is your mansion? It took him a long time before he reacted, could it be that he was talking about Ruoruo?
If your sister wants to marry Li Hongcheng?
"No!" To everyone's surprise, Fan Xianhuo stood up and waved his sleeves!
Several close officials beside him opened their mouths wide, not knowing that Master Fan heard about his sister's marriage. Why such a strong reaction. Everyone congratulated Lord Fan, congratulations to Lord Fan, who said it absolutely from the bottom of his heart, thinking about the Fan family. Si Nanbo Fan Jian is the secretary of the ministry, in charge of the money and grain of Qingguo, Fan Xian is the secretary of the Supervision Yuan, His Majesty refers to the daughter of the former prime minister, that young lady also has a noble identity that everyone knows but dare not mention, and now even the eldest lady of the Fan family has been promised by His Majesty to the dignified prince Li Hongcheng...... With such a holy favor, there is really no second one in this dynasty.
Lord Fan's reaction was unexpectedly ...... No way?!
Fan Xian lost his temper for a while, and looked at everyone in stunned expression out of the corner of his eye, and his heart was confused. immediately woke up, laughed and said: "This is not good, Li Hongcheng, this kid goes to the Qinglou every day, and I don't need hundreds of cans of wine to accompany my brother-in-law, so I won't let my sister marry this guy." ”
He covered it up very well, and the officials also knew that the Fan family was good friends with King Jing's family, and he was also very good friends with King Jing's son, so he was really joking.
The officials laughed, saying that Lord Fan was humorous, and said that he would go to the palace to disturb him after returning to Beijing, and some people said that he wanted to go with Lord Fan to find the prince of Najing and extort a few good meals.
Fan Xian also danced with his eyebrows, gossiping with the officials with joy, like a brother who was elated when he heard that his sister was about to get married.
......
......
After everyone dispersed, Fan Xian walked to the quiet backyard alone, stood beside the pillars, and looked at the stars in the southern sky that came out of the gaps in the sky full of black clouds, and was speechless for a long time.
My sister is getting married.
My sister is getting married!
Fan Xian squinted his eyes, watching the stars in the sky that were not bright flickering among the heavy clouds in the night, and his heart palpitated, and his mind was full of this sentence, this matter.
Although he had long known that this was inevitable, not long after he came to this world, when he told the yellow-haired little girl about Snow White in Shanzhou, Fan Xian knew that the little yellow-skinned monkey in front of him was going to marry one day in the future. In the correspondence between Lanzhou and Kyoto, he occasionally thought that the little girl on the other end of the letter, who grew up and didn't know what she looked like, would also marry a man in the future.
Later, when he came to Kyoto, he saw that there was a trace of ice and snow hidden between his eyebrows, and people were as smart as ice and snow, regarded himself as a teacher, and respected him as a brother and a girl's family, Fan Xian smiled and thought that if an ordinary man married her in the future, he would definitely have a hard time.
But I don't know when, maybe from the day Fan Xian guessed his background, Fan Xian began to subconsciously refuse to think about Ruoruo's sister getting married in the future.
Even when His Majesty the Emperor, who was visiting Weifu, said to the brother and sister in the teahouse on the bank of the Liujing River that he would arrange a good family affair for Ruoruo in the future, Fan Xian still refused to think about it.
But things have never been transferred according to people's will, and when Fan Xian got married, Fan Ruoruo's marriage naturally became a problem that had to be solved immediately.
Fan Xian subconsciously patted the pillars beside him, feeling confused, although he had told his sister about this problem at the beginning, and swore that he would definitely let his sister find a good family as an elder brother, but when it came to the end, he had always loved to pretend to be confused. In fact, Fan Xian, who was clear-minded, was rarely confused, and it was like there were countless lines interspersed back and forth in his mind, making him difficult to breathe and unable to think.
Bang bang bang. The sound of palms and pillars clapping gently echoed in the courtyard.
"It's noisy. A voice came from the other side of the hallway, very coldly.
Fan Xian smiled bitterly, his mood fluctuated too much today, so he forgot that in the courtyard where he lived, there was still an equally indifferent Yan Bingyun living now.
"My lord's mind seems to be a little confused today. Yan Bingyun didn't care about him, but was just curious about why this inspector of the Supervision Yuan, who was accustomed to hiding all his thoughts and leaving only outsiders with a clear and sunny appearance, was so embarrassed tonight.
Fan Xian took his eyes back from the dark night sky, thought for a while and said, "My sister is getting married." ”
"Miss Fan?" Yan Bingyun said quietly: "Kyoto's famous talented girl, I think it should be Your Majesty's marriage." ”
"Yes, my future brother-in-law is Li Hongcheng, the son of King Jing. ”
Yan Bingyun said: "Young people in Kyoto. I know that Shizi likes your sister. ”
Fan was stunned: "Really, why don't I know." ”
"I heard that the lord and Li Hong made a good deal, and now your mansion is married to King Jing, looking at the south and the middle. Except for a few royal relatives, in terms of noble relatives alone, there is really no courtier who can match the Fan Mansion, and the lower officials really want to congratulate the adults. ”
Fan Xian always felt that Yan Bingyun's cold congratulations always had a hint of viciousness in them, and he tilted his head slightly and smiled: "It is indeed a happy event." ”
"Since it's a happy event. Why are you sorrowful? ”
Fan Xian smiled and said, "Hongcheng is my friend, and I naturally like his temperament. But ......," he shrugged, "a prodigal prince who frequents the flower boat will become his brother-in-law, I think, no matter who he is, he will be a little worried." ”
Yan Bingyun coughed lightly twice, and said mockingly: "Could it be that Lord Fan has never visited the Qinglou in his life?"
Fan Xian smiled and shook his head, he was in a weird mood today, so he didn't want to have a verbal argument with Yan Bingyun. At this time, there were no candles in the room, the stars in the sky were silent, and the courtyard was dark. Fan Xian turned his head, looked at the indifference in Yan Bingyun's eyebrows, which could not be erased in the night, and suddenly his mind moved, and blurted out:
"Do you want to marry my sister?"
......
......
"Nonsense!" Yan Bingyun scolded Lord Tisi for his ridiculous questioning.
Fan Xian shrugged his shoulders and sighed: "That's right, you are a person who only loves yourself, how can you know how to cherish a woman?" Yan Bingyun didn't bother to pay attention to him.
Fan Xian looked at him and said, "How did the matter between you and Miss Shen end? ”
Yan Bingyun's face was frosty, but the sharp-eyed Fan Xian finally managed to find a trace of gloom in the other party's eyes for the first time, and only heard him whisper: "I'm not you this kind of lewd thief, as for Shen ...... I don't have anything to do with her. ”
Fan Xian understands that Yan Bingyun and Miss Shen are destined to be separated from each other in the future, looking at each other from afar, although I don't know if Yan Bingyun has been emotionally involved in this process, but I think that for an infatuated woman, he will always feel guilty.
His mind turned back to the marriage, and a faint sorrow came to his heart. In fact, everyone is right, it is better for my sister to marry Li Hongcheng than to marry those princes, Fan Xian should be happy, but he can't be happy anyway.
In fact, in his heart, even he didn't know what he was thinking, maybe it was just some details, some initial reactions, such as the long body in front of his head, and the gloomy clapping afterwards, revealed those desires in the deepest part of Fan Xian's heart that he was not aware of.
He said to Yan Bingyun on the other side of the corridor: "Miss Shen naturally has no way to marry you, but what if you ...... I mean, what would you do if, if that were possible?"
"I never think about the impossible. Yan Bingyun replied indifferently.
Fan Xian smiled and left the corridor. Yan Bingyun looked at his long lonely back that disappeared into the darkness, and fell into deep thought.
