Chapter 256: Family Affairs (1)
"Ji Yunshu's grandfather was the secretary of the Criminal Department, and his father was appointed as a county guard. The Ji family and the Murong family can be described as a good match. Zhao Xiyan said lightly: "This family business is suitable." β
Zhao Queyu pursed his lips: "If I am the second girl Ji, I am not happy." β
Murong Shen regretted his marriage for no reason, and he was entangled with Zhao Xiyan, who had already decided on a family affair. Even if Murong Shen is young and handsome, in the hearts of the girls who are waiting for words, it is not a good match.
Zhao Xiyan sighed lightly: "This news has reached your ears, it can be seen that this family business is not far from ten." You just wait and see, soon there will be news of the Ji family and the Murong family's marriage. β
Zhao Queyu was a little depressed: "I'm just not worth it for Sister Ji." Marrying such a merciless person will definitely have a hard time in the future. β
Zhao Xiyan's mind flashed Ji Yunshu's round and fair face, and he sighed lightly.
β¦β¦
Half a month later, the happy news of the Murong family and the Ji family's marriage spread.
This good news suppressed the rumors that the princess of Yingchuan was pregnant in one fell swoop, and became a gossip in everyone's mouth.
Gao Pingping was the first to come to the door and said indignantly in front of Zhao Xiyan: "Although Ji Er is shallow and annoying, he shouldn't marry Murong Shen's bastard." β
Zhao Xiyan glanced at Gao Pingping silently.
Gao Ping was straightforward and blurted out: "What do you think I am doing like this?" You don't think I'm pantothenic acid in my heart! β
Zhao Xiyan smiled: "This is not true. With your temper, from the moment Murong Shen repented of the oral marriage contract, you and him would have nothing to do with him anymore. β
"Of course." Gao Pingping snorted lightly: "I'd rather never marry for the rest of my life than be humiliated and sullen." β
Then, he sighed again: "I really didn't expect that the Murong family would go to the Ji family to propose marriage." Unexpectedly, the Ji family actually responded to the family affair. β
The circle of nobles in Beijing says that it is not small, but it is not big when it is big. The ladies who are at the age of marriage are left and right, but these are the same. Murong Shen is the eldest son of the Murong family, and he is deeply trusted by the Son of Heaven in the palace. No matter how anxious General Murong is, he will not marry low, and he will always marry his eldest son to a famous lady.
As a result, the second girl Ji, who had a fairly talented and outstanding family background, became Murong Shen's fiancΓ©e.
"The Murong family has always been in charge of the guards, and their power is huge. Murong Shen is the top among the younger generation of generals. Zhao Xiyan said lightly: "It is not unusual for the Ji family to have family affairs. β
There is a father who feels sorry for his daughter like Marquis Zhongyong, and naturally there is also a civil official like Ji Shangshu who wants to marry Jiangmen.
Gao Pingping was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said, "I want to go to Ji Mansion and see Ji Er." β
Zhao Xiyan glanced at her and reminded euphemistically: "The dowry of the Murong family has been brought into the Ji Mansion, and this family affair has been decided." At such times, it is not appropriate for you and me to come to the door. β
Gao Pingping thought for a while and sighed: "What you said is also right. When the two of us saw her, what should we say? It's embarrassing to think about. β
Think about how Ji Er made fun of her at the beginning?
Who would have thought that the last person to marry into the Murong family would be Ji Er himself.
Gao Pingping was a little excited, and his voice also lowered: "We women are like duckweed." Growing up in his mother's house, he should marry at the age of sixteen and live in his husband's house in the future. Husband and children, serve in-laws, and live a lifetime of patience. I don't want to live a day like this. β
Zhao Xiyan smiled slightly: "Therefore, being able to marry someone you like is the happiest thing in the world." β
Gao Pingping's mood was complicated and subtle, and he couldn't help muttering: "Say it lightly." How many people in the world can have such good fortune as you. β
Zhao Xiyan pretended not to hear a trace of loss in Gao Pingping's tone, and said with a smile: "In a few days, let's go to Su Mansion to see Sister Su together!" β
Gao Pingping immediately responded: "I haven't seen her for a few days." We'll go tomorrow. β
Gao Pingping stayed at Zhao's house for most of the day, and did not return home in a carriage until the evening.
The iris probe glanced at it, sighed, and then patted his chest again, his tone was full of joy: "That Xu San, finally disappeared." β
Gao Pingping glared at Iris and glanced out of the car window.
What caught his eye was a young soldier with an honest and honest face.
The tall, silent boy was gone.
Gao Pingping became inexplicably irritable, and suddenly asked the coachman to stop: "Hey, come here." Who are you? Where did Xu San go? β
Xu Shiyi replied respectfully: "Little Xu Shiyi, I was ordered by Miss Zhao to send Miss Gao back to the Hou Mansion." Xu San entered the palace with the prince. β
In other words, if she wants to see Xu San in the future, it will be difficult and difficult.
It was as if a dark cloud was flying in the sky, pressing heavily on my heart. Gao Pingping knew that he shouldn't say more, but he still couldn't hold back: "Xu San was on an errand in the Zhao family, why did he suddenly enter the palace again?" β
Xu Shiyi smiled honestly: "Xu San has the best skills, and he is the most trusted and reused by the prince, and now the prince is busy recruiting new soldiers to build a new army, so he asked the little one to change with Xu San." β
Gao Pingping snorted lightly: "You are too useless." β
Xu Shiyi happily responded: "Yes, yes, the small one is really useless, and it is far worse than Xu San." β
Gao Pingping: "......"
Gao Pingping lowered the curtain, and the driver raised his whip again.
Xu Shiyi rode with him, grinning secretly in his heart.
Shizi suddenly asked him to change errands with Xu San, and he also felt puzzled. Today, I finally know why. Xu San, this kid, who is silent, turns out to be the most powerful one. It actually hooked the heart of the tall lady of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion.
β¦β¦
On the second day, Zhao Xiyan and Gao Pingping went to Su Mansion together.
Su Jin was wearing a sky blue Luo skirt today, which was very beautiful, with a smile in her beautiful eyes.
Zhao Xiyan smiled and quipped: "Sister Su, is there any happy event, she is so happy today." β
Since the holy decree of marriage arrived at the Su family, the boulder hanging above her head disappeared without a trace, and Su Jin's mood became better day by day.
Naturally, such words cannot be spoken. However, there is a happy event, but I can share a thing or two.
Su Jin blushed slightly, and said softly: "In a few days, the Meng family will come to the door for the dowry." β
Zhao Xiyan and Gao Pingping glanced at each other, and smiled together to say hello to Su Jin.
Su Jin's joy and happiness were radiant from the bottom of her heart, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were sweet: "I didn't expect such a day." β
Yes, who would have thought that the prince would give up Su Jin and marry Su Huan and Murong Yan?
Zhao Xiyan looked at the radiant Su Jin, and secretly sighed in her heart.
Gao Pingping said quickly: "You have got what you wanted." If you can marry your sweetheart, you won't get sick again in the future! β
Su Jin blushed and slapped Gao Pingping.
Gao Pingping said half envious, half jokingly: "It's a pity that I don't have your good fortune." β
Su Jin naturally picked up the conversation: "Do you also have a crush on someone in your heart?" β
Gao Pingping: "......"
