Chapter 48
Halfway through the banquet in Qufu, Wen Jing was about to leave, and all the female relatives in Qufu went out to see each other.
In this way, Princess Ning also had to say goodbye, the prince needed the help of the Qu family, and Princess Ning planned to make friends with the Qu Mansion before she came. However, Old Madam Qu kept talking to Wen Jing, and Princess Ning sat aside without interjecting a few words.
Now that Wen Jing is going to leave early, she stays again, and it seems that they are climbing the Qu clan in Ning Wangfu.
The carriage that Wen Jing was riding in was replaced by another one, and next to the carriage stood Zhu Zhan, the great eunuch beside Jiang Xufeng.
The eunuch's dress was different from that of the ordinary maid, Mrs. Qu, Qu Huaiyu and Qu Huaiyu's mother, the county lord of Qingping, all saw it, and it was self-evident who was sitting in the carriage.
The county lord of Qingping has been extremely low-key since entering Beijing, and the banquet in Qufu is her first official appearance in the capital. The banquet was very quiet, and she followed Mrs. Qu like a foil, but her face suddenly changed at this time.
waited until the carriages of the Prince's Mansion and King Ning's Mansion gradually moved away, and Mrs. Qu beckoned the ladies to continue the banquet.
The county lord of Qingping held his daughter's hand and retreated on the grounds of physical discomfort, Qu Huaiyu looked at her mother's serious expression and pursed her lips: "Mother? ”
The county lord of Qingping sighed: "I always thought that the harmony between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess was a rumor, but now it seems that it may not be a lie." ”
Qu Huaiyu frowned, she didn't understand: "His Royal Highness just came to take the crown princess back to the house, this is also ...... Mother, the crown princess's father is still guarding the northeast and holding military power, and it is understandable for His Royal Highness to do this. ”
"Seeing the big from the small, even if it is acting, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can do this step for the crown princess is not completely emotionless." The county lord of Qingping patted the back of his daughter's hand, "It's me and your grandmother who are too anxious, thinking that my aunt is still ...... back then."
"Mother," Qu Huaiyu didn't want to listen to these words that had been said over and over again, "Mother, I just said a few words to the crown princess alone...... The crown princess is not a simple woman. ”
"Nonsense!" The county lord of Qingping was startled at first, looking at Qu Huaiyu's somewhat aggrieved look, and couldn't bear to continue to scold his daughter.
After a long time, the lord of Qingping County said: "Huaiyu, if our Qu clan wants to go further, we can't stand on the wrong team." Although your father and I have been in the southwest for many years, we have watched every move in the capital. ”
"Although King Ning has Concubine Rong and Zhou...... It's just a matter of gold. The crown prince looks weak now, but he hasn't let King Ning take advantage of him for so many years, and there is the Song family behind him, and he will ...... in the future Huaiyu, if you enter the prince's mansion, are you willing to be just for Liangyuan? ”
Qu Huaiyu fell silent, and the figure of the fourteen or fifteen-year-old Jiang Xufeng flashed in front of her eyes, and suddenly became the crown princess Wen. She seemed to hear Wen saying 'you're not fit in red' again.
On the carriage of the Prince's Mansion, Wen Jing looked at Jiang Xufeng in front of him: "It's not yet lunch time, Your Highness ran out early." The next time the concubine sees the queen mother, she must tell Her Highness well. ”
Jiang Xufeng pretended to wrench his face, and wanted to knock Wen Jing with the folding fan in his hand: "There is a new flower market on the West Street, and I am thinking about taking the princess out for a walk, and the princess still wants to sue me." ”
The flower market on West Street is actually not as diverse as the garden in the Prince's Mansion, so it's just fresh. It allowed Wen Jing to find a few books of talented and beautiful people, and the story is not vulgar, and it is very interesting to have contacts and contacts.
Jiang Xufeng rarely read the script, Wen Jing leaned on the low couch to read, and he also made fun: "There is something new in writing." ”
This book is written about a girl who falls in love with a talented man, and hints at the pursuit of a bend, and finally the talented man with the elm head finally reacted and finally became a family with the girl.
Wen Jing also knew that Jiang Xufeng just said it casually, but it reminded her of the big girl in Qufu today. The words in his hand suddenly lost interest, and he slapped the words book on Jiang Xufeng's chest: "It seems that His Royal Highness likes active beauties, and there will be more and more beauties in the mansion in the future, can the concubines still blindfold His Highness?" ”
Jiang Xufeng was inexplicably stunned, but he didn't get angry, and stuck it in front of Wen Jing: "The crown princess is wronged and lonely, it is enough to have a lonely princess, and no matter how much else it is, it is just icing on the cake." ”
Wen Jing laughed out loud, not because of Jiang Xufeng's words. But if the concubine in the backyard or Song Liangdi heard Jiang Xufeng's words, I am afraid that he will tear his heart.
Wen Jing glanced at him with disgust: "Your Highness's words to coax the concubine, the concubine will not believe it." ”
The two masters laughed in the house, and Zhu Zhan was worthy of being the big eunuch next to the prince, and he found a gap and let Holly wait for the orders of the masters. I went to ask Lan Yuan, Lan Qian, who went out with the crown princess today.
Lan Qian almost wanted to say everything in one go, so that His Royal Highness could also see what kind of talent Miss Qu was. I remembered what I had promised my mother last time, and I couldn't help it.
Lan Yuan just told Zhu Zhan about the process of going to the banquet, and as for what Miss Qu said to Niangniang, Lan Yuan didn't mention half a sentence.
But after all, Zhu Zhan has served his master longer than the two of them, and he is like a good person, and he can hear something boring from it in just a few words.
In the early morning of the second morning, Jiang Xufeng and Wen Jing had breakfast and were about to go out to go to the morning court.
Zhu Zhan looked far away from Changchun Garden, and then said, "Your Highness, the servant asked last night." At the Qufu banquet yesterday, Miss Qu stopped the princess from speaking alone. ”
Jiang Xufeng looked at Zhu Zhan, and Zhu Zhan hurriedly said: "Miss Lan Yuan didn't elaborate, only the slave looked at Miss Lan Yuan's expression, I was afraid that I would not like anything." ”
Jiang Xufeng's face sank in an instant, and the Qu family he had seen when he was fourteen or fifteen years old seemed to treat everyone else as fools, and almost wrote their ambitions on their faces. Especially the county lord of Qingping, like a poisonous snake spitting letters, when he saw him, greed almost overwhelmed the whole person.
After all these years, it's still just as disgusting.
Zhu Zhan has been serving Jiang Xufeng since he was a child, and the ins and outs are naturally clear: "The Qu family handed in posts several times, and the minions all asked someone to stop them." ”
Jiang Xufeng glanced at him: "Even if you are not tired of life." ”
Gonggong Zhu was also surprised in his heart, His Royal Highness's temperament was not good. However, as a prince, he can't let people guess his thoughts, so his emotions are rarely exposed. What makes His Highness disgusted on the surface, Qu is the first.
A few days later, Qu Huaiyu's father took up the post of secretary of the Criminal Department, and now he wants to call him Master Qu.
Lord Qu has been in a daze recently, originally thinking that the prince is weak, and he will definitely use their Qu clan to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai. However, there was no reply to the post sent to the prince's mansion several times, and it was not easy to meet His Royal Highness the prince, but the prince's attitude was polite and detached, and he never answered his words head-on.
King Ning's mansion frequently handed him olive branches, and King Ning was even more heartfelt and sincere.
If it goes on like this, it is not a way at all, Lord Qu did not dare to offend King Ning without getting the permission from the prince's side. In a few days, he was almost forced by King Ning to the alley where he finally made a choice, and it was difficult to ride a tiger.
The day is approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet held in the palace finally gave Lord Qu a chance to breathe.
