Chapter 62: Choosing a Concubine
Zhang Yuqing unexpectedly got up from the bed and glanced at Wang Chunniang.
"Why is he here?" Wang Chunniang asked uneasily, after such a long time, the Luo family left the capital, and everyone thought that the Luo family regretted it, left her as an orphan girl, and quietly left.
Zhang Yuqing got dressed and said, "Since you're here, let's see you!" β
It was not surprising that the Luo family would not come to propose marriage, after all, she was just an orphan daughter whose parents had died, and it was normal for the Luo family's uncle-in-law to want to find a better wife for his son.
But Mrs. Luo and her two children were very good to her, so that she experienced a rare warmth in the capital, and she was only grateful to the Luo family, not resentful.
It's just that she didn't expect Luo Danyang to come to the dart game to look for her at night, so it can be seen that Luo Danyang had already gone to Zhang's house to look for her, but she didn't find anyone, so she found the dart game.
He Qi went out and brought Luo Danyang with him.
Luo Danyang was looking for Zhang Yuqing outside for a day, and searched all the inns, and only after night did he find out that Zhang Yuqing had settled in a dart game.
Although Zhang Yuqing had already fallen asleep, he was really worried about Zhang Yuqing's safety, so he could only ignore etiquette and have to see Zhang Yuqing at this moment.
The midsummer night was still sweltering, the sky was shining with stars, and unknown insects were chirping outside the window.
Luo Danyang was sweating on his forehead, the moon-white robe embroidered with green bamboo on his body was already soaked with sweat, his face was covered with sweat and black ash after running in the capital for a day, he was exhausted, and he was always worried that Zhang Yuqing would encounter accidents outside, completely losing his former elegance and calmness.
However, the moment he saw Zhang Yuqing standing there with her hair scattered in the candlelight, he felt that any fatigue and uneasiness had disappeared, and it was worth it.
"Cousin, why are you here?" Zhang Yuqing asked in surprise.
Luo Danyang just wanted to say, "I'm here to propose", but he felt inappropriate when the words came out, so he hurriedly changed it to, "I'm here...... Find yours. β
Zhang Yuqing looked at the undisguised joy that Luo Danyang showed when he looked at her, lowered his eyes, and said, "Cousin must have been to Zhang's house, I should know that I have come out of Zhang's house and have nothing to do with them anymore." β
Luo Danyang hurriedly said: "Although I don't know what happened, but with my understanding of Yuqing, it must be that the Zhang family has done something excessive. β
"Thank you cousin for your understanding." It was rare for Zhang Yuqing to hear such words to defend her, and her heart was sour, and her eyes almost turned red.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, there was nothing more to say, except for the chirping of small insects under the windowsill.
Luo Danyang tried his best to suppress the tension in his heart, his palm was already sweating, and his heart looked at Zhang Yuqing in the candlelight.
"Yuqing." Luo Danyang spoke, "We went back to Wu County a few days ago. β
"I know." Zhang Yuqing said with a smile, "Are your aunt and Danxia okay?" β
Luo Danyang smiled and nodded, "It's all good, I went back to Wu County to tell my father that you are a very good girl, I want to marry you, and my father agreed." β
Zhang Yuqing raised her head in surprise and looked at Luo Danyang.
"I, I, I'm here to propose to you!" Luo Danyang blushed and stammered, "Yuqing, I know this is unreasonable, but the Zhang family treats you badly, and you also came out of their house, I think you are unwilling to let the Zhang family decide your lifelong affairs, so I came to propose to you directly." β
Zhang Yuqing was flustered for a moment, and then said: "Cousin, thank you for your love, but I am just a homeless orphan girl, and you are the son of an official family with a promising future......"
"No, it's not like that!" Luo Danyang hurriedly said, "You, you are the best girl in my heart, smart and kind, I, I like you very much!" β
Zhang Yuqing was silent for a while and said, "Cousin, you went back to Wu County to persuade your uncle, right?" Even if my uncle-in-law agreed, it was only out of love for his son, and he was not really satisfied with me. β
"That's because your father doesn't know you, and when he gets to know you, he'll know that you're a very good girl!" Luo Danyang said, "Yuqing, you can go back to Wu County with me!" β
Wang Chunniang and He Qi hid under the windowsill and eavesdropped, and the two looked at each other in surprise.
"Girl can't leave?" He Qi asked quietly.
If you want him to say, it's good to go to Wu County, the Luo family is an official, and at first glance he is a rich man, Luo Gongzi is gentle and affectionate, with such a good home for the Luo family, what else do you go to Qingzhou to find relatives?
Wang Chunniang made a boo gesture, and her gentle eyes were full of sorrow.
With her understanding of Zhang Yuqing, she is afraid that the girl will not go to Wu County.
Zhang Yuqing took a deep breath, her eyes were cold and rational, "Even if I go back to Wu County with you, I won't be able to give the Luo family any help, it will only make you embarrassed between my father and me." β
Luo Danyang was stunned, as if he understood what Zhang Yuqing meant, and asked softly: "Yuqing, do you believe that I can protect you?" Or do you think he will change his mind and abandon her in the future?
"No, I'm just, I just think that you and your aunt are good people and don't want to embarrass you in the future. Cousin, you deserve better. Zhang Yuqing said ruthlessly.
Silence spread between the two, remembering what Zhang Yuying had said, the Luo family's proposal for marriage had been delayed for so long, and Zhang Yuqing must have suffered a lot of ridicule and ridicule, Luo Danyang felt pity in his heart, and mustered up the courage to ask: "Yuqing, are you angry that I came to propose marriage for so long?" β
Zhang Yuqing looked at him in surprise.
"This matter is indeed our rudeness, failing to take into account the meanness of the Zhang family." Luo Danyang said sincerely, "My father did not agree to the marriage before, but now he has agreed, my father is a man of his word, he is willing to accept you as a daughter-in-law, he will sincerely treat you as a family, will not embarrass you, and please Yuqing cousin believe me!" β
Zhang Yuqing's heart was warm, and she shook her head with a smile, "Cousin, your family is all excellent people, you deserve a better girl." β
One day, if someone finds out that her adoptive father and brother are all wanted criminals by the imperial court who should have been beheaded a long time ago, the Luo family will face a catastrophe.
Previously, she had no money and wanted to go to Qingzhou through the Luo family, but from beginning to end, she never thought about really marrying Luo Danyang.
In good conscience, she likes a gentle and amiable son like Luo Danyang, generous and humble, with the vigor of a young man, knowing the world but not the world, and her whole body is full of warmth. If it weren't for the identity restrictions, she would also be willing to tie the knot with a down-to-earth and credible person like Luo Danyang in this time and space, have children, and spend a dull and stable life.
Zhang Yuqing looked at the handsome Luo Danyang, and a faint regret welled up in her heart, I don't know which girl will have this blessing in the future and can become Luo Danyang's wife.
He must have been a good husband and would be a good father in the future.
Seeing that Zhang Yuqing still refused, Luo Danyang didn't say anything more, and said with a gentle smile: "It's not early, Yuqing, you have a good rest, and I will come to see you tomorrow." β
Zhang Yuqing thought that they would set off for Qingzhou before dawn the day after tomorrow, and with the traffic conditions of this era, it was very likely that they would never see Luo Danyang in their lives, so they smiled and nodded, "If my cousin is not busy, I am very welcome." β
Luo Danyang suppressed the loss in his heart and said with a smile: "I'll come back tomorrow." β
He thought, a few more times, Yuqing will always be able to feel his sincerity.
Early the next morning, Luo Danyang came over again and brought a message to Zhang Yuqing, saying that last night there was a word in the palace that the senior monks of Huangjue Temple watched the sky at night and saw that there was an auspicious atmosphere falling into the capital, and it should be a new daughter of the phoenix.
Zhang Yuqing was surprised and said softly: "I heard that the crown princess passed away......"
Luo Danyang nodded, "It is to choose the new crown princess." β
"The Zhang family doesn't recognize our girl, and our girl doesn't have to go!" Wang Chunniang said with a smile.
Otherwise, wouldn't you have to go to Huangjue Temple to let the monks see each other's fate? What if it's really a phoenix fate......
Zhang Yuqing smiled, "Chun Niang, you think too much!" Even if they recognize me, this daughter of the phoenix will not be able to take my turn! β
The gimmick of "The Daughter of the Phoenix" is much better than the "Four Sisters of the Capital".
The four sisters in the capital are self-appointed by Zhang Yuying's sisters, and they are joking, and no one can take it seriously. The name of the daughter of the phoenix is certified by the seal of the "master", and with the blessing of this name, it is really a fart with fairy spirit, and the queen can also be worthy of it in the future, the benefits are real, and every family must not squeeze their heads to fight for the name of their own girl.
He Qi asked curiously: "Those high-ranking monks are really so powerful, can they see people's lives at a glance?" β
Zhang Yuqing smiled, "Do you remember the strange rumors that spread when you were trying that case?" It's all the same! Those great monks who pretend to see through the heavens are actually just mortals in the flesh, ordinary people who are mixed with the power of the court. β
It was just a good show performed from top to bottom to maintain the emperor's orthodox status.
It doesn't matter who is the daughter of the phoenix, the important thing is that the daughter of the phoenix marries the prince, and the prince is the true dragon son, the country is stable, and the name is justified.
As for whose girl has the auspicious spirit of national fortune, it is estimated that it depends on whose backstage is hard enough and gives the most money!
Luo Dan raised his eyebrows with sorrow, and sighed when he heard the words: "It's still Yuqing's mind that is transparent." β
"I think my cousin seems to have something on his mind." Zhang Yuqing was about to leave, and at this moment, he only thought that Luo Danyang was a friend to talk to, and said bluntly.
Luo Danyang sighed and said sincerely: "I just think that today's court is very different from the court I longed for when I was studying. β
The top and bottom don't think about how to govern the country and strengthen the country, but are busy choosing what kind of phoenix life daughter, as if choosing a woman to come out, pressing the "phoenix life" life on this woman, and the emperor's family can live on the dragon chair for generations.
The scholar has studied hard for many years, thinking that he will step into the officialdom in the future, display his talents, and govern the country, but such an emperor and such a court really disappointed him!
At this moment, the people from the dart bureau ran over and said breathlessly: "Miss Zhang, someone from the Zhang family is here, and their master came in person, saying that he wants to pick you up!" β
Sweetheart Theatre:
He Qi: Girl, let's go!
Zhang Yuqing: Wait a minute, I'll send a good person card.
