Chapter 51 The truth about choosing a concubine, Liang's identity
After Lu Xingyue went out, Lu Jingzhi felt a lot more comfortable.
She walked quickly to the bedside and asked in a low voice, "Third sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Sick? Wasn't it good yesterday, how could it be so sudden? ”
Shen Lansui was quite moved when she saw that she was really worried, "I'm fine, don't worry, it's just that the menstrual matter is coming." ”
Guanchun followed in to pour tea, Shen Lansui gave her a look, and Guanchun immediately moved a chair.
Lu Jingzhi sat down and breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, "It turned out to be a menstrual matter, is it a stomachache?" ”
"Hmm."
"I also had a stomachache earlier, and it took me a while to relieve." Lu Jingzhi said to Guanchun: "You go to my yard to find Zhishu and ask her to bring my small painted hand stove." ”
"Yes."
Guanchun went out to close the door, Lu Jingzhi held Shen Lansui's hand, frowned and said, "It's really cold." ”
Shen Lansui smiled and shook his head, "How do you know that I have asked for a house doctor?" News spreads so fast? ”
"It's not." Lu Jingzhi said: "I came to look for you, but halfway through I saw the government doctor coming out of Pinglan Courtyard, and I asked before I knew that it was you who passed it." ”
"Huh? Come play with me? Shen Lansui looked at her playfully.
Thinking of something, Lu Jingzhi looked back, no one came in, she still lowered her voice and said, "It's about the chrysanthemum banquet yesterday." ”
Shen Lansui sat up slightly straighter, "What do you say?" ”
Lu Jingzhi was afraid: "Yesterday, as soon as my eldest brother and I came back, my father called me to the study, and as soon as I went in and saw that my mother was there, I knew that something was wrong." ”
She held Shen Lansui's hand and said in a deep voice: "Sister-in-law, your guess is not bad at all, yesterday it was clearly a chrysanthemum banquet, but it was actually a concubine banquet." ”
The guess was verified, and Shen Lansui said in his heart, "What do the princes and eldest ladies say?" ”
"Dad asked me if I saw the prince, if there was a prince to talk to me, I said that I stayed with you the whole time, and someone did look at me during the banquet, but I ignored it, Dad breathed a sigh of relief, praised me for doing a good job, and asked me if I had gone up to perform, I said no, and he let me out."
Lu Jingzhi patted his heart fearfully and said, "When I went back, I thought, if I didn't listen to you at that time and insisted on going up, I'm afraid that the marriage decree will come down today, right?" ”
Shen Lansui's eyes moved, "You mean that someone has received a marriage decree?" ”
"yes!" Lu Jingzhi leaned closer and said, "But it's just one." Cui Han, the second daughter of the Cui family, was pointed out to the fourth prince as the concubine, and the others did not move, I am afraid that they are still discussing. ”
Shen Lansui was thoughtful.
The Cui family has been a famous family since ancient times, a high-ranking family, strict rules, the ancestors disdain to marry the royal family, and the standards for marrying wives and daughters are very strict, and they are generally only selected in the right family.
But in recent years, the Cui family has gradually declined, and he is finally willing to put down his body and let his daughter marry.
However, even if it declines, Cui's position among the literati is still unshakable, with a huge root system, and although Cui's father has a low official position, it is still more than enough to have such a mother family with four princes.
Shen Lansui suddenly asked: "I remember that the mother of the Fourth Highness is a concubine?" ”
Lu Jingzhi bowed, "Exactly." Concubine Shu's mother has been low-key over the years, and she was also favored back then, and her mother and the Cui family were more or less related to each other, which led to this marriage. ”
Shen Lan Sui: "Concubine Niangniang is a smart person. ”
The second daughter of the Cui family is not as valuable as the eldest daughter, but she has her back to the Cui family, low-key but not lowly, and the four princes will also have many backers in the future, but they will not be too ostentatious and hateful.
"Yes, although she is not as popular as Concubine Guifei and Concubine Lan now, she can still speak in front of His Majesty."
Lu Jingzhi straightened up and wrapped his handkerchief around him and said, "Now that this pair is done, the others don't know what the plan is, and I always have a lot of thoughts in my heart." ”
Shen Lansui picked up the tea and handed it to her, "If the courtiers are unwilling, Your Majesty can't just go their own way, marriage is different from the government, and there is no reason for coercion." ”
"Yes." Lu Jingzhi was comforted, she took the tea and was about to drink it, when she suddenly remembered something again, "That's right!" ”
She met Shen Lansui's puzzled gaze and said in a low voice: "I heard that yesterday I not only chose a concubine for the prince, but also intended to choose a concubine for the princess!" ”
"Which princess?" Shen Lansui was taken aback, "It can't be Princess Rongzhao, right?" ”
"I don't know, it may be Princess Jiale, but there are only these two marriageable princesses at present, and anyone can possibly."
Lu Jingzhi muttered: "I don't know who can pick up these two pearls......"
As soon as Shen Lansui's thoughts moved, a deep and tough face immediately appeared in his mind.
"Jing Zhi, do you know General Liang?"
"General Liang?" Lu Jingzhi paused, "Which General Liang are you talking about?" The one who just returned to the capital? ”
"Yes, I took a look at him during the banquet yesterday, and I saw that he was extraordinary and young, and I was very curious."
Shen Lansui didn't dare to tell him about his private meeting with the princess.
Fortunately, Lu Jingzhi didn't think much about it, she smiled and said, "His name is Liang Ci, and he is really powerful." ”
Liang Ci is the only son of Liang Wanguan, the general of the northern border, Liang Wanguan is deeply trusted by His Majesty, and he is alone at a young age, but unfortunately God is jealous of talent, in a major war, he and his wife both died, leaving only Liang Ci who was only thirteen years old.
His Majesty wanted to summon him back to Yangdu to take care of him, but he didn't expect Liang Ci to refuse to accept it, and he guarded the General's Mansion alone, quelled the rebellion, killed countless enemies, and made great military exploits, taking back his father's military power from the hands of villains.
At the age of fifteen, he repelled foreign enemies, and at the age of eighteen, he pursued the enemy for thousands of miles, so that the small border countries did not dare to commit again.
At the age of twenty, he returned to the dynasty and was entitled, and his son inherited his father's business, becoming a new generation of war gods in the north, and won the title of Marquis of Dingbian, which overshadowed the princes of Yangdu.
“…… However, this time he came back not only to be sealed, I heard that he was seriously injured on the battlefield, and this time he came back to recuperate, and he will not return to the northern border city for a short time. ”
Lu Jingzhi finished speaking in one breath, and hurriedly drank tea to moisten his throat.
Shen Lansui was stunned when she heard it, there were many young generals in history, and she passed by at a glance at that time, and she didn't have any real feelings.
Now that she sees the real person, she realizes that what she said is true.
If anyone can match a noble and beautiful person like Princess Rongzhao, Liang Ci is a good choice, and the beauty should be matched with a hero.
"What is my sister-in-law thinking? Liang Ci? ”
Lu Xingyue, who had just walked to the door, happened to hear this.
He paused, and Guanchun, who hurried back, saw this and asked suspiciously, "Why is Gongzi standing at the door?" ”
Shen Lansui and Lu Jingzhi in the room glanced at each other.
Lu Jingzhi covered his lips and laughed, winked at Shen Lansui and said, "Third brother is afraid that he is here to urge me, why didn't I find him so clingy before?" ”
She put down the teacup and got up, "Sister-in-law will rest more if she is not feeling well, I will go back first, and I will come to see you another day." ”
Shen Lansui smiled helplessly: "Okay." ”
As soon as Lu Jingzhi opened the door, he met Lu Xingyue's expressionless face, and couldn't help but smile: "Third brother, I haven't stayed too long, right?" ”
Lu Xingyue: Huh
