Chapter 22: The Marriage Gift
Xue Qianye raised her eyebrows, "Queen Mother, this matter still needs the consent of the imperial brother." ”
Saying this, I was already thinking about who to send in.
Over the years, Xue Qianyu has not been close to women, and the defense in the palace is like an iron bucket, if he agrees, he will take the opportunity to arrange for his own people.
"Don't worry, the emperor has already told Yu'er, and he agreed."
"That's great."
A smile spread across Xue Qianye's tense face, and then Xue Qianyu was pushed over.
"I just talked to the queen mother about the marriage of the emperor's brother, I don't know if you have a favorite woman?"
Xue Qianyu was silent for a moment and hooked his lips, "None." ”
"In this case, I and the queen mother will be in charge, and I will select a few good-looking noblewomen for you to send to the mansion."
Xue Qianye's eyes swept over the nobles, and many people lowered their heads silently, for fear of being chosen.
Seeing this, his face was a little not good-looking.
Xue Qianyu didn't care, "Brother Xie Huang's grace, it's just that the wolf mastiff in my house is short-tempered, everyone must have heard of it, and a few newcomers don't need it, and the younger brother only wants to marry a concubine." ”
As soon as these words came out, the nobles were relieved, after all, their identities were not worthy of the royal princess, and they didn't have to suffer from that fear.
Back then, the wolf mastiff bit two beauties to death, but it was so uproar that the road in front of the royal palace became a forbidden area, and no one dared to walk day and night, for fear that he would become a good meal for the wolf mastiff.
Xue Qianye's face was a little solemn, as long as there was one person, it was a little difficult to do, and almost all the daughters of important ministers were inextricably linked with the second and third children.
The Zhao family is not involved in disputes, but now that Concubine Zhao Shufei is pregnant with a dragon son, and the queen mother is the Zhao family, if the Zhao family marries Xue Qianyu again, if someone moves his crooked heart, it will be a big trouble.
He glanced at Zhao Tingting, and saw that the other party was bowing his head and twisting his handkerchief, with a reluctant look, and he was secretly relieved.
Also, Zhao Tingting has always been above the top, and since Xue Qianyu was blind, she has not seen her set her eyes on him, not to mention that now Xue Qianyu has a crippled leg.
Even if the two really get married, it is difficult to have one mind.
In contrast, Empress Dowager Zhao was overjoyed, it seemed that Xue Qianyu listened to her words, and it was unexpected.
There is only one concubine, so you don't have to worry about someone competing for status with Zhao Tingting.
At this time, Xue Qianyu spoke again.
"Brother Huang, Queen Mother, Princess I want to choose myself."
Without waiting for Xue Qianye to excuse herself, the Queen Mother hurriedly agreed, "Yes, this is your own family affair." ”
The corners of Xue Qianyu's lips raised a touch of arc, and she stretched out her hand to point over.
"That's it."
"What?"
Everyone was stunned, looking blankly at Lin Feiwan's direction, some regretting and some gloating.
"Yu'er, don't mess around, the county lord of Jiarou has just passed the filial piety period, how can he handle a happy event?"
The Queen Mother's face was full of anger, and she did not hide the threat in her tone.
"Can't it, the imperial brother almost gave the two county lords of the Hou family a marriage just now, huh, the imperial brother?"
Xue Qianye, who was named, couldn't keep up with his brain at this time, he had heard that Xue Qianyu wanted to stand up for the Hou Mansion before, but then the matter was over, and he didn't take it seriously.
Now that Xue Qianyu suddenly wants to marry Lin Feiwan as a princess, she has to make him think more.
However, Xue Qianyu couldn't see it, so it was obviously a casual finger, or it could be a coincidence.
Moreover, compared to Xue Qianyu's 100,000 blood-clothed guards, the 3,000 private soldiers of the Hou Mansion were not enough at all.
It also saves the second and third children from worrying about it in the future and making other things, which can be counted in one fell swoop.
While he was still thinking about it, he heard Xue Qianyu say lightly: "The son didn't want to marry, and he promised the queen mother because of a filial piety, since the queen mother didn't want to, the son will no longer marry in the future." ”
The Queen Mother was anxious, "What nonsense are you talking about, when did the mourning family reluctant, I just wanted to ......"
"Since the queen mother has agreed, let's ask the royal brother to give her a marriage."
Facing the Queen Mother's angry face, Xue Qianye coughed lightly, although he also wanted to agree, it was not good to fight against the Queen Mother.
"Brother Huang, don't worry, it just so happens that the county lord of Jiarou is also here, why don't you ask her opinion, cough cough, county lord Jiarou, what do you think?"
Lin Feiwan pretended to be frightened, "The royal king is kind to the Hou Mansion, and the courtiers are ...... The courtiers were willing to marry the royal king as a concubine. ”
"Haha......"
Xue Qianye laughed dryly, "Passing on my will, the lord of Jiarou County is smart and gentle, showing off his wisdom, and he is a talented woman with the royal king, which is the marriage of heaven, so he is appointed as the princess of the royal king, and he chooses an auspicious day to get married." ”
"Brother Xie Huang's grace."
"Courtier, Emperor Xie, Longen."
"Today is a double happiness, all the secretaries returned to the Yuehua Hall with me and drank together."
"Congratulations to the King."
"Congratulations to the county lord of Jiarou."
The celebrations came and went, but there was a bit of sincerity, and everyone knew it.
The banquet did not last long, and ended on the grounds that Concubine Zhao Shu was tired.
When she returned to the Hou Mansion, Yu Qingyun came back to her senses, grabbed her and muttered, "Later, you really want to marry ...... The King? ”
"Mother, rest assured, the king is not as terrible as outsiders say, and my father was kind to him in his early years, and I will not be wronged after I get married, don't worry."
"How can I rest assured, you don't know, the wolf mastiff in his house is ......"
"The panther is actually very cute, don't believe you ask Holly."
Holly, who was named, swallowed and nodded stunned.
"Indeed, the wolf mastiff is very good to the young lady."
"Really?"
"Well, that's true."
"That's good, that's good, it's just the king's body...... Alas, I will have to wronged you in the future. ”
"Mother, don't worry, I'm not wronged at all, you can rest well."
After Lin Feiwan appeased Yu Qingyun, the first thing he did was to go to Zhou Mei and Lin Ran to settle accounts.
At this time, the Qinghe Courtyard was brightly lit, Zhou Mei was panicked like an ant on a hot pot, and Lin Ran was sitting on the side in despair.
Her collar was not high, and she could faintly see the bruises inside.
"Bang!"
The door was kicked open, and Lin Feiwan came in angrily with a few maids.
"What are you going to do later, Ran'er is now the county lord of Ronghua, and her identity is on an equal footing with you, you don't want to touch her hair!"
"Smack!"
Lin Feiwan's right hand shook down fiercely, stunned Zhou Mei, and it took a while to come back to her senses.
"You...... How dare you hit me! ”
"I'm the one who hit you!"
Lin Feiwan took the box from the maid's hand and threw it on the ground, "Say, whose idea is it to change things!" ”
Zhou Mei panicked and said, "I'...... I don't know. ”
"Heh, auntie, don't forget, I'm now a quasi-princess, if you don't say it today, believe it or not, I'll go to the royal palace tomorrow to borrow a few people to come over, they are well-informed, and they will definitely let my aunt explain well."
Hearing the word king, Zhou Mei shuddered.
I said...... Be...... It was my idea, but the pair of priceless jade gourds I sent to replace them with were obviously priceless, and I don't know how they could be turned into scissors. ”
"Where's the maid who changed things?"
"The maid is from the Zhou Mansion, and the person left early."
Lin Feiwan glared at her hatefully, and turned his eyes to look at Lin Ran.
Condescendingly, you can see the traces on her body at a glance.
Lin Feiwan's apricot eyes narrowed slightly, whispered a few words to Holly, gritted his teeth and scolded: "Lin Ran, you are confused!" ”
Her idea at that time was to let Lin Ran make a show, but she didn't expect her to be so affectionate to Xue Chengche that she didn't hesitate to use her innocence as the price.
Lin Ran seemed to be out of breath, raised his eyes and fell again, without saying a word.
"Tomorrow, I will send someone to Ningci'an to take care of it, and you will leave early the morning after tomorrow."
Zhou Mei became anxious when she heard this, "Why, Ran'er is not what it used to be now, you don't have the right to touch her, and do you know about our sister like this?" ”
Lin Feiwan hooked her lips and sneered, "Auntie, if your mother knew what you did, do you think she would still care about you?" ”
Seeing Zhou Mei's pale face, a sneer crossed her eyes.
"Auntie, don't worry, I will declare to the outside world that you will go to the nunnery to pray for the Hou Mansion, if Lin Ran has a sweetheart in the future, he will marry him directly, but this Hou Mansion, you don't want to take another step in the future!"
"And ...... If you let me know that you will do something unfavorable to the Hou Mansion again, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”
"You...... You dare, I'm your aunt! ”
Zhou Mei pulled her neck and grabbed white.
Lin Feiwan's face sank like ice, picked up the scissors on the ground and came to Zhou Mei coldly, so frightened that she fell to the ground.
"I dare not, my aunt can try it."
"Miss, here's the medicine."
Lin Feiwan took the decoction in Holly's hand and handed it to Lin Ran, "Drink it." ”
"What is this, I don't drink it."
"Holly, autumn frost, hold her!"
"What are you doing, don't ...... Auntie save me......"
Zhou Mei was already scared stupid, where could she take care of her, so she watched Lin Feiwan pour a bowl of decoction into her mouth.
"Ahem......"
"Don't worry, there is no poison in the decoction, but if there is a next time, it may not be."
Lin Feiwan glanced at Zhou Mei on the ground and threw the medicine bowl to Dongqing.
"Hold the Qinghe Courtyard, and no one will be allowed to enter or leave before leaving the morning after tomorrow!"
"Bang!"
The gate was locked.
"Vomit, vomit......"
Lin Ran bent down and put his index finger into his throat, but he couldn't vomit anything after retching for a long time.
"Don't worry, Ran'er, I will never let you go to the nunnery, I will definitely be able to figure out a way to ......"
"No, it's my own decision to go to the nunnery."
"What nonsense, you are now the lord of Ronghua County, you don't have to be bothered by the identity of a concubine anymore, you ...... in the future"
"The future? Hahaha...... I don't have a future, I don't have a future, I don't have ......."
Looking at Lin Ran's back, Zhou Mei staggered to the ground.
"God, what the hell did I do wrong, why did you do this to me!"
The crying and shouting in the Qinghe courtyard did not disperse for a long time, and the Wanyuan on the other side was not peaceful.
Lin Feiwan was stunned as soon as he entered the door, and there were dozens of black-clothed people lying on the ground.
Chasing Cloud drew the last sword and whistled, and soon the dark guards disposed of the corpses.
"Miss Lin, the master is waiting for you in the flower hall."
"Oh...... Good. ”
There will be no need to endure it anymore, Lin Feiwan limped in.
I saw Xue Qianyu sitting in a wheelchair, playing with a porcelain vase in his hand.
Suddenly, a chill hit, "Lin Feiwan, you are really good!" ”
