Chapter 10 Appeal
"Sister Tang'er, can you get out of the car and meet me?" The clear and pleasant sound is only a car curtain away from Gantang.
Gan Tang tried his best to maintain the pride and demeanor of everyone's ladies, and when he raised the curtain with his hand, he repeatedly warned himself that even if the answer he got was not good, he should not be ashamed, so he lifted the curtain and wanted to get out of the car.
"Girl, put on your hat and go out."
The convoy has not yet left the city, and today is the Heavenly Doctor's Day, and many people are rushing to the venue, so there is an endless stream of pedestrians on the road.
The housekeeper is afraid that someone will bump into Gantang, after all, the customs in the Yanlong area are very different from the customs in the Xichuan area, and the women in the Yanlong area are almost not out of the door, and Gantang has to follow the customs when he comes to Yanlong.
Gan Tang looked at the hat, felt a little relaxed, put on the hat according to the words, and then was escorted by the housekeeper, four maids, and two guards to Lu Xun.
Lu Xun saw that the curtain of the car was moving, and his joy was overflowing, he waved at Gan Tang, "Thank you Sister Tang'er for being willing to see me, this place is chaotic, I have asked Yang Sheng to open a private room in the teahouse in front of me, sister please first." β
As soon as Lu Xun's words fell, the housekeeper glanced at Lu Xun angrily, then grabbed Gan Tang and said as if discussing, "Girl, there is a big tree over there, which can provide shade and shelter, the old slave will find a few guards to separate the place, and let the prince talk to you." β
Gan Tang's housekeeper was raised by his grandmother, and since Gan Tang went to Xichuan three years ago, he has been waiting by Gan Tang's side.
She didn't know everything about Gan Tang and Lu Xun, but she knew nine times out of ten.
This time she came to Yan Long, and she also got an explanation from Gan Tang's grandmother, that is, Lu Xun and Gan Tang were not allowed to talk about what they had or not, especially when they were alone before marriage.
Gan Tang glanced at the big tree and the teahouse not far away, then raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "Shizi, I want to know why those things happened later, can you answer?" β
"I can, Sister Tang'er, I know everything, I can't say anything." Lu Xun's tone was like an oath.
Gan Tang fell on him again, she folded her hands in front of her lower abdomen, bent her knees slightly, lowered her chin and said, "The eldest husband is full of words, and the son of the world should not lie." β
"Never deceive ......" Lu Xun raised his fingers, as if to swear.
Before he was about to say his oath, Gan Tang walked in the direction of the teahouse.
The housekeeper didn't react, "Girl, have you forgotten the old lady's orders?" β
Gan Tang shook his head and said sincerely, "Mama, it's up to me this time, grandma may not know my intention to come to Yan Long." β
The whole Bian Mansion loves Gan Tang very much, especially the housekeeper Mama is still Gan Tang's close attendant, she is like a daughter to Gan Tang, and now she sees that Gan Tang's eyes show no light all the way, so she is reluctant to say anything, so she can only let her go.
Entering the private room of the teahouse, the housekeeper was not allowed to close the door, and put down the curtain hanging on the beam of the room to separate Gan Tang and Lu Xun.
After the housekeeper had done everything, she left the private room to the two young people who had a lot of questions to answer.
There was a curtain separating it, and Gan Tang took off the curtain, and then stood in front of the curtain.
This scene reminded Lu Xun of the first meeting with Gan Tang, the clever and innocent little girl who was ignorant of the world has grown into a beautiful girl with a beautiful posture.
"Brother Yi, about what happened from Xichuan in February to now, Tang'er just wants to hear the truth." Gan Tang repeated in an accentuated tone, "Whether it's good or bad, just listen to the truth!" β
"Yes, what my sister wants to know, I dare not hide it." Lu Xun promised.
"Sister Tang'er, do you know that two years ago, on the eve of His Royal Highness the Prince's wedding, the eldest girl of the Jin family, who was designated as the crown princess, lost her morality before marriage and was dismissed?"
Two years ago, the current crown prince was sixteen years old, and the crown princess was fifteen years old, and she was originally a pair of golden boys and girls, but because the former crown princess did not sew the wiring of the dress at the ceremony, the former princess split the dress when she saluted the guests.
The former crown princess was untidy on the spot, and was criticized by the scholar for damaging women's morality, and was unworthy of being the wife of the prince, and was dismissed.
Two years ago, Gan Tang was still immersed in the grief of the destruction of his family, ignoring foreign affairs, and did not know that the prince did not marry his own Qingmei. But after a long time, she chatted with her about the book and talked about a similar story, when she was angry and ascended to heaven, and she was indignant and said that this kind of man was not responsible, and her fiancΓ©e was really miserable.
Now it seems that there was a storyteller who told the story of the royal family under a pseudonym.
"Know." Gan Tang replied.
"Tang'er, do you know that after that, there was a palace girl in the harem who gave birth to the second prince?"
Gan Tang nodded slowly.
Lu Xun is now explaining his background, and seeing that Gan Tang is clear about these two things, he doesn't stop and says, "At the beginning, the queen wanted Wen Shu to leave this matter and continue to marry the golden girl into the East Palace, but Wen Shu was unwilling, and since then he has had a quarrel with the queen's mother and uncle's family." β
"Because Wen Shu is His Majesty's only child, a well-deserved prince, the queen didn't say anything at first, but later the second prince was born, and the queen had other thoughts. In the past two years, the queen's mother's family and uncle's family have openly and secretly given Wen Shu a concubine. β
"Last year, the general sent someone to Yan Long to inquire about my marriage, and I learned that I was going to give you to me as my wife, so I got carried away, and told Wen Shu about it in the palace, but I didn't expect it to be heard."
"Since the contradiction between Wenshu and the queen is getting bigger and bigger, the queen's party intends to win over the Yanguo Mansion to support the second prince, but my father is Wenshu's grandfather, I am Wenshu's companion, there is nothing wrong with Wenshu as a prince, I have a friendship with him for many years, and I will not break it off, so even if we want to establish a party, our Yanguo Mansion will only be an auxiliary minister of the princeling, so the Yanguo Mansion has become a thorn in the side of the Queen's party."
"Sister Tang'er, when I came back from Xichuan and learned that the queen wanted to use you as a yard to let me break with Wen Shu, I hated myself day and night for not speaking at the beginning."
"When I left from Xichuan, I didn't get my sister's understanding, I wanted to finish Yan Long's affairs and go to Xichuan again to ask for your forgiveness, but time is no longer waiting, Wen Shu told me at the time, I must rush to ask Your Majesty for marriage when the queen proposes to His Majesty, and I agreed."
"Later, I didn't expect that my family had already asked His Majesty for marriage, and the queen would propose to accept you as a concubine for Wen Shu, and Your Majesty was in a dilemma."
"At this time, the former internal officials around Your Majesty mentioned to Your Majesty that the queen's sister Chen Niangzi is your third aunt, and asked Your Majesty to ask Chen Niangzi about your heart, coinciding with your fifteenth birthday, the queen said that she would send you a congratulatory gift, and I also asked people to prepare to re-enter Xichuan, but the queen made it bad, so that my trip to Xichuan did not succeed."
Gan Tang quietly listened to Lu Xun tell what happened during this time, and inexplicably felt flustered, and his mouth was dry.
She barely thought about it, and lifted the curtain, "The queen mother and His Royal Highness the crown prince are fighting for power, and you, as the prince of Yanguo, are you caught in the middle, are you injured?" β
Lu Xun didn't expect Gan Tang to open the curtain and care about himself, since the prince was deposed, for more than 20 days, he has been running hard, and his heart is sour.
He took a step forward and almost exchanged feet with Gan Tang, "Tang'er, I thought at the time, even if you blame me for marrying you later, I will be good to you, hold everything you want in front of you, and let you forgive me." β
"At that time, I was thousands of miles away from you, the last misunderstanding has not been resolved, and there is a new misunderstanding, I am afraid that you will resent me, but at that time, the news of the abolition of the crown prince of Wenshu East Palace has not yet been announced, and there are also omissions in the thousands of miles of communication, I didn't dare to write the matter in detail in the letter, so I had to let the housekeeper and the general say that I will marry you this year, as long as you come to Yanlong, I don't have to pass it on for a few months in one sentence, and the old misunderstanding with you has not been resolved, and the new misunderstanding will regenerate."
The distance between the two of them was close, Lu Xun analyzed himself so sincerely, begging for forgiveness, Gan Tang, who had already sorted out everything, lost his resistance, and the whole person was like a cooked shrimp, red inside and out, "You, what are you doing so close to me!" β
Lu Xun sensed that he was inappropriate, retreated to the position where he was standing just now, and apologized, "Xiaosheng is reckless, don't blame Sister Tang'er." β
Gan Tang looked at Lu Xun with a nervous and timid look, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat, "There should be many beautiful women around you, what good am I about, worthy of your memory for so many years." β
Due to etiquette, in the two years that Gan Tang was in Yanlong, he and Lu Xun had very few meetings, and even if they did, they were a large number of servants, and there was no chance to speak in private.
If it weren't for the changes in his family later, Lu Xun ran three or four times to persuade himself, Gan Tang didn't know that Lu Xun, the prince of Yanguo, who always likes to play with his brother at home on weekdays, has other thoughts about himself.
Lu Xun looked serious, "Out of its east gate, there are women like clouds." Although it is like a cloud, I think about it. Silk clothes and scarves, chat about my members.
Out of its ranks, there are women in full swing. Although it is in full swing, I think about it. Dressed in clothes, chatting can be entertained. β
"Rhetoric!" Gan Tang was short of breath, and Yixi Yi snorted.
Gan Tang knew the whole story, and he was no longer angry, but now he was more shy, and he didn't want to hear such a modest word as rhetoric, so he became nervous again, "Sister Tang'er, what I said is from the bottom of my heart." β
Gan Tang looked at Lu Xun's eyes, those Danfeng eyes were particularly arbitrarily seductive, she bit her lip lightly, Luo Pa in her hand had been rubbed into shape, for fear that she would lose her temper, she retreated into the curtain, "Brother Yi, I will tell my fourth uncle and eldest cousin what you say, if they find out half a word of falsehood, it will be a rebellion, a monk, and I will not marry you." β
Lu Xun swore an oath, "Sister Tang'er, what I Lu Xun said is absolutely not half a lie, as long as you are willing to marry me, your fourth uncle and eldest cousin will check me." β
"Tang'er, when I learned that your third aunt sent a letter to refuse marriage, and His Majesty agreed, my heart was like a knife, during that time in Xichuan, I saw a lot of Xichuan Erlang, when the general said that I was not as good as them, I was afraid that I would lose my fate with you, and now you are willing to come to Yanlong, I am very happy."
