Chapter 14: Unexpected Joy

The Lu family responded, and Qingrong was also passed into the inner room. She thought that the wife of this military general would also be domineering, born tall, and she could see the Lu family, but she was a little surprised, she was not tall, nor short, her body was a little rich, her face was round and kind, and she looked at herself with a smile.

Qingrong stepped forward and saluted, and called out in a proper manner.

Lu Shi was satisfied, and said with a smile: "Your Highness really lifted that kid from my family, wouldn't such a good girl cheapen him." He said to Sanniang again, "Sanniang looks like a person who reads poetry and books, my Shiro is like a reckless man, I'm afraid you can't deserve it." ”

The queen smiled: "Madame, it's a joke, who doesn't know that in the previous battle with Tubo, Xue Shilang led his subordinates to win one after another, helping the Ye army, but it is rare to be brave and good at fighting." ”

The queen looked at Qingrong again, and the smile in her eyes did not decrease, "As for Sanniang, although the court is not as good as Shiro, she is virtuous and quiet, knowledgeable, not to mention that she is also fond of Shiro, I think the two of them are very compatible, so today I want to be the master of the marriage of the two of them, what does Mrs. think?" ”

Qingrong hung his head and was silent beside him, waiting for Lu's reaction. But unexpectedly, the Lu family did not feel embarrassed, so they followed the queen's words, "Your Highness has a good eye, and Your Highness has said yes, so naturally it can't be wrong, and the concubine thanked Your Highness on behalf of the dog." ”

The queen looked at Lu Shi with satisfaction, nodded, smiled, and looked at Qingrong again, "So good, very good." ”

The marriage was decided so quickly, it was unexpected, and now the family does not know about it, and if they do, they don't know how to worry. Qingrong has been hiding on the side, listening to the queen and the Lu family's greetings, and it didn't take long for the Lu family to retreat.

The queen looked at Qingrong, and Qingrong felt that according to her original statement, after Mrs. Lu agreed to this matter, she should now make a look of ecstasy in her heart, so she had to thank the queen with a happy face.

The queen stared at her drooping head and chuckled: "No need to be formal, you have also seen Mrs. Lu's attitude, and besides, this matter is not only my willingness, but also the meaning of a saint." Think about it or are you lucky, so you don't have to worry about it now? ”

Qingrong smiled shyly: "Yes, Qingrong has thanked the saint, thanked His Highness, and everything is arranged by His Highness." ”

The queen smiled: "Okay, since this matter has been decided, you can go down first, as for when to leave the palace, according to the meaning of the concubine." ”

Qingrong bowed down and retreated in an orderly manner.

It has been half a day since Lu returned to the house. Lu Shi came to Xue Shao's courtyard, but there was no one to see, only Ah Cheng was in the house, she asked, "Where is Shiro?" ”

Ah Cheng said: "In the study." ”

"Study?" Lu Shi was surprised and muttered: "This is unusual, I haven't seen him take the initiative to go to the study at home before, but today the sun is coming out in the west." ”

Ah Cheng said in his heart Why not today, the general has been in the same study as he has been in the study for the past few days, and he has been staying all morning, and no one is allowed to go in to disturb him.

Lu Shi thought about it, but still didn't believe it: "I'll take a look." ”

Lu led the maid to the door of the study, she pushed the door directly and walked in directly, she didn't see anyone reading in front of the table, only saw a man lying on the soft couch sleeping soundly, still holding a scroll in his hand, and I didn't know who to fool. Lu Shi sat on the couch, stretched out his hand to wake Xue Shao, and couldn't help but laugh: "Do you know what time it is?" Still asleep here? ”

"I woke up when A-Niang was outside the door." Xue Shao opened his eyes slowly, and said that he was also alert when he slept, and when he heard the voice outside the door, he knew that it was Lu Shi who came.

"Yo, I also look at the "Nanhua Sutra". I thought you had worked hard these days, but it turned out that you were hiding here and sleeping lazy. ”

Xue Shao was quite helpless, he originally wanted to read books, but as soon as he saw these dense words, his eyelids were heavy, he couldn't stand it, and he didn't know how Qingrong could read those books...

He got up and sat up straight, and he was a lot taller than Lu, looking very oppressive.

The Lu family looked up and down, and he didn't know if such a delicate little lady and his own little son could get by..."Hmph, you can sit still." Lu Shi glanced at him, as if he was just here to pass on the word, "I can tell you that I entered the palace today for your important business." ”

Xue Shao frowned when he heard this, what did he do?

The Lu family deliberately sold Guan Zi and said: "Today, the queen specially pointed out the marriage for you, and actually pointed to the daughter of a civil official, but I see, this person is good, but he is not a good match for you." ”

Finger marriage? "You promised?" Seeing that Lu Shi didn't speak, Xue Shao's brows furrowed even tighter, and he said in a deep voice: "Since it is not suitable for me, what else does A-Niang promise to do?" ”

Lu said: "Hmph, you said it lightly, Her Royal Highness the Queen's golden mouth and jade words, can bother to give you a marriage, can you still do it?" Besides, I said that you are not worthy of others. ”

Although Xue Shao was not annoyed by this sentence, he was really unhappy, he was not an object, how could he be arranged to be with someone for no reason! Marrying a wife and having children is all set for them by others, what is this! He wanted to marry, but no one cared!

The Lu family was still chattering: "The secretary is the third mother of the Lu family, she was born well, and she is polite, but I don't see it in my eyes, and I actually fell in love with you, a martial artist." ”

Who? Lu Sanniang? Xue Shao stood up stiffly and stared at Lu Shi with surprise in his eyes, "It's her!" ”

"What is who, is it, do you still know her? I can tell you, this time it's not me and your grandpa who have the final say, you always have to be a little measured, since Her Royal Highness the Queen has given marriage, you can take over this family affair with peace of mind, and you have picked up a big bargain. Although the other party is not a princess of the county, don't be like the eldest man of your third uncle's family..."

Seeing Xue Shao's lost soul and unknown look, the Lu family was about to open her mouth to persuade her that this marriage event should always focus on the family. Who knew that Xue Shao smirked to himself again, he paced back and forth in front of the Lu family, opened his mouth several times, wanted to say something, but still didn't say anything.

This appearance frightened the Lu family, she hurriedly grabbed him and asked, "What's the matter, don't you scare A-Niang, aren't you mad when you hear the news?" ”

Maddened? Xue Shao shook his head, this won't be, at most he is happy and stupid! "Auntie, what you said is true?"

Lu slapped him dissatisfiedly and said, "Are you really stupid, do I dare to say this to deceive you!" Even if you don't want to, you don't have to scare me like that. ”

"Who said I was reluctant!"

Lu Shiqi said: "You mean that you also agreed?" Okay, okay, I finally know that I can save some snacks with your grandfather. ”

After she finished talking, Xue Shao also came back to his senses from the surprise, but he was a little unsure, "That... And what about her? Would she like to do the same? "Can she be willing? Obviously, last time, she broke up with him, and he couldn't believe it.

"How do I know this?" Lu Shi thought about it, but still replied to him, "Although this is what the queen meant, I heard that this Lu Sanniang has taken a fancy to you." ”

These words surprised Xue Shao even more than the news of the marriage just now, and he also wanted to be happy about it. But he wasn't stupid in the end, and after thinking about it for a moment, he knew that this was just her scene, if it was true, where would he not feel half a feeling?

Lu Shi said earnestly: "Although this matter is not your grandfather's decision, but presumably he also agrees, the emperor and queen are of the same heart, since the queen has the heart to marry the Xue family, no matter who the candidate is, this marriage is a certainty." It's not Lu Sanniang, and Li Sanniang... In that case, why didn't he accept the queen's intentions. What's more, this marriage has never been a one-person business, where can it be willful? ”

Xue Shao nodded and said in a deep voice, "My son understands." With this result now, he is already overjoyed, where is there any other dissatisfaction?

At this time, he was surprised and happy in his heart, obviously still outside the situation, and asked in a daze: "A-Niang, when are you going to handle this marriage?" ”

Qingrong's marriage was decided, Liu Yuniang was very happy, and rewarded Qingrong with a lot of gold, silver and satin. After the Lu family got the news the next day, the queen also specially summoned the Wang family into the palace to talk about the matter, and Qingrong went home with the Wang family.

In the carriage out of the palace, both mother and daughter seemed a little silent.

Compared with the previous Xu family, and the things in the palace in the past few days, it should be a good thing to be able to settle the Xue family. But the Wang family can't help but worry, the other party is a military general, one scholar and one martial arts, and the rules are different, not to mention, the gap between this family... In this western expedition, the sage named Xue Mingding as the head of the march, and this court was naturally glorious. It's just that it stands to reason that such a person shouldn't look at the daughter of the above-mentioned civil official, not to mention that Lu Wenzhong is only a five-grade civil official, and he is not an important position, and many things in the future are beyond the reach of Lu Wenzhong and the Wang family, I am afraid that Qingrong will be wronged in the future.

But if you don't agree to this marriage, who can afford to take this risk? Lu Wenzhong was also silent after hearing about this, and sighed again and again.

Wang saw that Qingrong's face was in a trance, in the end, it was the mother and daughter who were connected, how could she not pity Qingrong's current mood, she took Qingrong's hand and persuaded: "This person can't make his own decisions most of the time, although he can't be happy everywhere, but it also has its benefits, where in this world are so many perfect things?" Always look at the better. ”

Qingrong nodded and said lightly: "My daughter knows." ”

Although Qingrong's mind is older, it's just that she hasn't lived that long, and some truths still have to be told to her, "It's just that what you encountered, if it's not good in this place, or there is a deficiency in that place." This life is not a matter of saying that you are happy and you are willing. It's like this woman's needlework, but it's just tinkering and mending this head. If you don't see it yourself, you will compete everywhere, and you will naturally not be happy. ”

Although this marriage was not Qingrong's original intention, it was also unexpected by her, but now that she listens to Wang's words, she can think about it. Yes, she smiled lightly: "A-Niang is reasonable, in fact, it is nothing more than this thing, if it is really not good, you have to think of yourself to make up for it, if you start to think of this and that, I am afraid that nothing will be done, then it will come, then it will be safe." ”

Wang nodded in response, and also showed a relieved smile, "That's the truth, you can understand, A-Niang is also relieved." ”

Although Siniang is young, she is also worried that she will be broken, for fear that Sister A will not be willing, but she also knows that some things are not able to be decided by herself. Fortunately, she still has good news to tell Qingrong, so that Qingrong can be relieved.

After waiting for dinner, he hurriedly pulled Qingrong to the room to talk. Qingrong learned that Siniang's previous misunderstanding with Lord Ming had been clarified, and now there should be no major incident.

Qingrong couldn't help but be curious when she heard this, and looked at her and said, "Oh? Who helped you? Can I speak for you in front of the county lord? ”
