Chapter 318: Chance Encounter
"Thank you to the three princes for their love, but the little girl was lost not long after she was born. Now that you have found it, you have no education and your behavior is not decent, how can you become your princess and lose your royal face?"
In order to stop the marriage of the third prince, the general's wife had to expose her shortcomings.
Knowing that Mrs. was trying to protect herself, Leng Wan on the side simply lowered her head at this time, pretending to be afraid and frightened.
"Madame's words are serious, I just said a few words to Miss, but I felt that her words and actions were all inappropriate, and I even won my heart. Now that my heart is pleased, I want nothing more."
An infatuated county lord has just walked away in this hall, and now there is another dedicated prince, and today it is really eye-opening.
"But ......"
The general's wife wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Concubine Yu Guifei, who had been sitting underneath.
"Madam, it's rare that I Heng'er likes a girl so much, please see Heng'er's sincerity and agree."
Concubine Yu is the biological mother of the third prince, relying on the favor of the saint, she has always been dominant in the harem.
clenched her fists and endured it for a long time, but the general's wife was stunned and didn't say a word.
Seeing this, Leng Wan already understood.
Above the court, there is a strict hierarchy.
Even if they are concubines in the harem, they are all favored after having a guard of honor.
Although the General's Mansion has great military exploits, it does not dare to offend these people.
Leng Wan understood, so she didn't blame the general's wife.
"Thank you to the three princes for their love, and the courtiers are overjoyed."
It was embarrassing to save people, so she took the initiative to get up and filled the mind of the third prince.
"The young lady of the General's Mansion is really exactly the same as the old general, she has a bold temperament, and she is a heroine among women. Passing on my will, the eldest lady of the General's Mansion is well-behaved and intelligent, and she has been suffering outside for many years. I am grateful that it is not easy for the old general's family to reunite, so I will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and a green ruyi."
The first time I saw the emperor's generosity, just by moving his mouth, he exchanged for a wealth that Leng Wan couldn't get in her life.
It's a pity that she can't be happy at all now, as if someone has poked a hole in her heart.
"The courtiers thanked the emperor."
After saluting respectfully, Leng Wan sat down.
The ghost sent the gods, she turned her head to look at the front of the hall, and happened to meet Fu Jiulan's eyes.
In an instant, my heart slowed down.
Quickly turned around, Leng Wan didn't dare to look at it again.
For Leng Wan, every minute and second of this banquet was torment.
Finally waiting until it was over, she pulled the general's wife and walked out without looking back.
"Miss Leng."
A familiar voice came, and Leng Wan's feet seemed to be filled with lead, and she couldn't move a step.
She stopped and looked at Fu Jiulan, who had changed back into civilian clothes behind her.
"What's the matter?"
"Take a step to speak."
Fu Jiulan has always done things properly, and now is no exception.
There were many people standing back and forth at the gate of the palace, and it was indeed not the place to speak.
"I'll wait for you in the carriage."
The general's wife immediately understood something, stretched out her hand and patted Leng Wan, and went forward alone.
As Fu Jiulan walked to a hidden corner, he opened his mouth to get down to business.
"The third prince married you with ulterior motives. You can think about it yourself, and I'll help ......you then."
"What is my relationship with Fu Gongzi?" Leng Wan suddenly asked rhetorically.
This question only taught Fu Jiu to be speechless, but just looked at her with a sinking face.
"My son and I met just Pingshui. is so unfamiliar, I'm afraid it's not worth the trouble of the son for me. Besides, although the third prince has a thousand kinds of badness, he is willing to marry me, and this is enough."
I don't know who I said this deliberately, and in my cold words, the directivity couldn't be more obvious.
"Childe, you and I are not familiar with each other, and it is best not to cause misunderstanding. My mother is still waiting for me in front of me, so I won't delay and take my leave."
After saying the last sentence, Leng Wan almost ran away.
The moment he turned around, the tears fell like beads with broken threads, and he couldn't hold them back.
The carriage returned to the general's mansion, and seeing that it was not early, the general's wife persuaded her to stay overnight.
Thinking that when she returned to the shop, she would inevitably want to see things and think about people, so Leng Wan agreed.
The general's mansion is not small, and the general's wife asked people to prepare a yard for her in advance, so it is simple to live in it directly.
Tonight, the general's wife rarely abandoned the old general, and had to sleep in the same room with Leng Wan.
"Wan Niang, have you really figured out that you want to marry the third prince?"
Before going to bed, the general's wife asked tentatively.
"Didn't you say that? A woman's life is complete only if she is married."
Leng Wan smiled, noncommittal.
"But what if the third prince is not a good match?"
Although the emperor has set up the crown prince, but now the princes are also waiting for the opportunity to move, and in the end, everyone can't say who will kill the throne.
It is precisely because of this that several princes have to gather forces everywhere and recruit troops for themselves.
For example, the third prince, although he Yu Guifei helped him speak, he was still no match for the prince after all.
If you really want to increase your chances of victory, it is wise to pull the neutral general's mansion into your hands.
With this meaning, this marriage is no longer so simple.
The general's wife was worried that Leng Wan had made a decision on impulse, and she was afraid that she would regret it, so she asked.
"Since ancient times, it has been a gamble for a woman to marry. If you marry the right person, you will have the same scenery, but if you marry the wrong person, you will have a miserable life. Since you have to gamble no matter who you marry, why don't you marry someone who is sincere and marry me?"
Leng Wan thought about it, and in turn comforted the general's wife.
"You kid, if you really don't want to get married, even if you fight for the merits of the General's Mansion, I will give ......."
Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Leng Wan.
"I'm sleepy, go to sleep."
turned around, and Leng Wan stopped talking.
In the darkness of the night, the sigh of the general's wife was faintly heard.
Early the next morning, as soon as Leng Wan finished washing, the third prince came to visit.
"The three princes are coming, and the old ministers are not welcome."
The old general arched his hand at him and said some polite words.
"The old general doesn't need to be polite, I came here today to take the young lady out shopping. Today's Wind and Flower Festival should be very lively."
"The little girl is used to being lazy, and I'm afraid I'm ...... at this time."
Before the old general's words fell, a voice came from the back hall.
"Daddy, since the three princes have all arrived, I don't want to touch him, I am willing to go out with him."
Although Leng Wan doesn't understand etiquette, she has a general understanding.
Seeing that she herself said yes, the old general couldn't stop her, so he had to let her go.
"This is the pastry fruit in the palace, seeing that you liked to eat it yesterday, I specially asked people to go to the imperial dining room to ask for some."
As soon as he went out, the third prince handed over a food box.
"Thank you."
didn't even open the lid, Leng Wan handed it to the maid on the side.
Seeing that she was so unconcerned, the third prince was not annoyed.
"It is said that the Wind Flower Festival is an annual day when men and women make a marriage, and the streets are very lively."
"Oh? Really?"
replied coldly, not salty, and not light, and didn't seem to be interested.
The two walked and talked, and when they came to a corner, they suddenly met Fu Jiulan and Zhaoping County Lord.
