The Duke of Wei's mansion is decorated with red lanterns and red silk all over the palace, indicating how important and festive the day is.

Today, the prince of the Duke of Wei and the second miss of the Jiang Mansion got married, and there were many guests who came to the Duke of Wei to congratulate Lu Shizi and Miss Jiang Er on their wedding.

It was late at night, and the guests in front of them were ushered in, and there were still guests who had not yet left the Wei State Mansion, which showed that everyone valued the Wei State Mansion and Lu Shizi.

Compared with the bustle in front, the new house at this time seems a little cold. The red candles in the house are flickering, and in a festive atmosphere, it seems extraordinarily quiet.

The subordinates of the Wei Mansion have all retired, and at this time there are only the bride Jiang Daiyuan and her dowry maid in the new house.

Jiang Daiyuan was wearing a red wedding dress, sitting upright on the marriage bed, her face covered with a red hijab embroidered with mandarin ducks, and she could only see her slender figure.

The maid Yuzhan saw that Jiang Daiyuan got up early today, and after another busy day, she was already tired at this time, she said with concern: "Little, Mrs. Shizi, do you want the slave to go to the front yard to take a look, see if Shizi is coming back soon, there is no ......?"

Lu Shizi has not come back to unveil Jiang Daiyuan's red hijab and drink wine with Jiang Daiyuan, so Jiang Daiyuan can only sit here with his hijab on his head all the time, and he can't relax and rest.

Because she had been sitting upright on the marriage bed for too long, Jiang Daiyuan's body was already stiff, but when she heard Yuzhan's words, she still gently moved her white jade hand to prevent Yuzhan from going to the front yard to inquire about Lu Yunzhen.

On the day of the wedding, the bride was supposed to wait for her husband to return in the new house. Lu Yunzhen did not return to the new house at this time, there should be guests in front.

Yuzhan didn't dare to disobey Jiang Daiyuan's orders, she looked at Jiang Daiyuan's slightly thin figure, her lips moved, and she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it.

Today, Jiang Daiyuan and Lu Yunzhen got married, and Lu Yunzhen, as the groom, should entertain the guests who came to the Wei State Mansion. It's just that it's so late at this time, and the guests who are still in the Wei Mansion at this time can only have a very deep friendship with the Wei State Mansion, and those guests can be entertained by other people in the Wei State Mansion. Today's wedding of Lu Yunzhen and Jiang Daiyuan is such an important day, shouldn't Lu Yunzhen spend his mind on Jiang Daiyuan?

Even if Lu Yunzhen really couldn't get away from the guests who were still staying in the Wei State Mansion, couldn't he send someone to ask or care for Jiang Daiyuan?

Where is there someone like Lu Yunzhen, who leaves the bride in the new house and ignores it?

.

The bustle in front could not be transmitted in the new room, and after Yuzhan finished speaking, she stopped talking, and silence returned to the new room. Yuzhan walked to the window and opened it to let the suffocation in the room dissipate some of it.

As the window opened, the voices of the people in the Wei Guogong Mansion in the courtyard that did not deliberately suppress came into the house one after another.

"Did you hear that? Today, Miss Jiang Er and our son got married, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang did not add makeup to Miss Jiang Er, and Miss Jiang Er's dowry was not even thirty-two lifts, which caused the face of our prince and the Duke of Wei to be lost. ”

"Miss Jiang's body has not been found yet, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang are still grieving the loss of Miss Jiang, Miss Jiang Er has always been not as favored as Miss Jiang, Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang are obviously not very happy about Miss Jiang Er's marriage, and there is no joy on the faces of Mrs. Jiang and Miss Jiang Er today."

"If I were Old Lady Jiang and Second Lady Jiang, I wouldn't be happy. Who doesn't know that today was supposed to be Miss Jiang marrying our son, who would have thought that Miss Jiang would have an accident on the way back to Beijing, so that Miss Jiang Er picked up a cheap ......"

"That's right, Miss Jiang and our son were originally a match made in heaven, and the prince also liked Miss Jiang's fiancée, if the person who married today was Miss Jiang, she wouldn't be so shabby, and she couldn't even get the dowry. Miss Jiang Er played tricks to marry our son, and the prince did not have a trace of newlywed joy on his face today, he was still in the front yard at this time, and he was afraid that he didn't want to face this Mrs. Shizi who married in at all......"

"Squeak", Yuzhan pushed open the door and walked out, she glanced at the few people who chewed the root of the tongue, and said: "I have heard for a long time that the rules of the Wei State Mansion are strict, and discussing the master here is the rule of your Wei State Mansion?" If you feel too idle, I will go to the grandfather and the princess for you to ask for some errands. ”

When a few subordinates who were contemptuous of Jiang Daiyuan's words just now heard that they were going to tell the Duke of Wei and the Duchess of Guo, they were immediately afraid, whether they were sincere or false, they all admitted their mistakes, saying that they had just drunk wine and talked nonsense, so that Yuzhan and Jiang Daiyuan didn't take it to heart.

Jiang Daiyuan only married into the Wei Mansion today, and Yuzhan didn't want to conflict with the subordinates of the Wei Mansion today and bring trouble to Jiang Daiyuan. She glanced at the servants again with warning, and then re-entered the new room.

When she saw Jiang Daiyuan who was still sitting on the marriage bed, Yuzhan couldn't help but redden. In the past few years, everyone only knows the talented and outstanding-looking Miss Jiang, who would have remembered that Jiang Daiyuan is the daughter of the long house, and the position of the head of the Jiang family is also their eldest master, if the eldest lord and the eldest prince are still there, how can Jiang Daiyuan be bullied and scorned everywhere......

Jiang Daiyuan naturally heard the words of the people in the Wei State Mansion just now. Her hands were on her knees, because too hard the white tender fingers were white.

She didn't want to use tricks to snatch her cousin's husband when something happened to her cousin.

The marriage between the Jiang Mansion and the Wei State Mansion was decided very early. At that time, my grandfather was still alive, and when the marriage contract was made, I did not say which junior in Jiangfu would marry Lu Yunzhen in the future.

In fact, according to the eldest and youngest, as well as the achievements of Jiang's father and Jiang's second master in the court, the next head of the Jiang Mansion should be Jiang Daiyuan's father. In the future, it should also be the concubine of the long house to marry into the Wei Mansion.

But Jiang Daiyuan's father's insistence on marrying her mother angered Mrs. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, and even the children with the long house were not treated well in the Jiang Mansion.

Later, his grandfather died, Jiang's father and Jiang's mother died, and Jiang Daiyuan's brother also suffered an accident. The second master Jiang became the head of the Jiang Mansion, and only Jiang Daiyuan and her younger brother, who had been weak and sickly since childhood, remained in the long house, and the long house was completely decayed.

Mrs. Jiang didn't like Jiang Daiyuan in the first place, and this marriage with the Duke of Wei naturally didn't want to fall on Jiang Daiyuan's head.

In recent years, the reputation of the cousin's talent and appearance has become more and more prosperous in the capital, Mrs. Jiang originally loved the granddaughter of her cousin, after the death of her grandfather and father, the Jiang Mansion was not as good as before, and it was originally the Jiang Mansion Gao Pan Wei State Mansion, so she naturally wanted to give this good marriage to her cousin.

Originally, the people of Jiang Mansion also acquiesced in their cousin's marriage to the Wei State Mansion, and Miss Jiang and Lu Shizilang were talented and beautiful, and they were a good match in the eyes of everyone.

I just didn't want my cousin to encounter a landslide on the way back from my grandfather's house, and I didn't even find the body.

Originally, Jiang Mansion and Wei Guogong Mansion were already handling the marriage of Miss Jiang and Lu Shizi, but Miss Jiang suddenly disappeared, and Wei Guogong made a promise not to cancel the marriage with Jiang Mansion, but asked Jiang Mansion to choose another girl to marry to Wei Guogong.

Jiang Fu didn't want to lose the in-laws of the Wei State Mansion, so he had to temporarily suppress the grief of his cousin's death. In order to reflect the importance attached to the Duke of Wei, when the Jiang Mansion discussed the candidates to marry into the Duke of Wei, it specially invited Lu Yunzhen and the Duchess of Wei to go to the Jiang Mansion, and also gave the choice to Lu Yunzhen and the Duchess of Wei. Jiang Daiyuan didn't expect that Lu Yunzhen would choose her to marry him at that time.

That day, Jiang Daiyuan looked at Lu Yunzhen's gaze that fell on her, and the whole person seemed to be in a dream.

She also thought that she could only watch him silently and secretly in her life, and it was impossible for her to have the opportunity to walk to his side.

Although Lu Yunzhen quickly took her eyes off her at that time, she still couldn't come back to her senses for a long time because of his heartbeat at that glance.

After Lu Yunzhen and Duchess Wei left Jiang Mansion that day, Mrs. Jiang slapped her in front of everyone and scolded her coldly: "Your sister's bones are not cold, in order to marry Lu Shizi, you deliberately imitated the dress of your sister on the day she was killed, I don't have a shameful granddaughter like you." ”

Feeling the pain on her face, Jiang Daiyuan recovered from the joy of being able to marry Lu Yunzhen. She didn't know what was going on, she didn't know what her cousin was dressed on the day she was killed, she was not taken seriously in Jiangfu, and what happened to her cousin was the next day, and she heard it from the mouth of the person with a broken mouth.

It turned out that he would choose her to marry him because he thought of his cousin.

She wanted to explain that the dress on her body was not trying to imitate her cousin at all, deliberately attracting Lu Yunzhen's attention. But Mrs. Jiang didn't believe her, she asked her to take her back to the room, and she was not even allowed to meet her only brother.

Until she got married, she was never able to see her brother again.

However, because of the power of Lu Yunzhen and the Duke of Wei, the Jiang Mansion did not dare to change the person who married into the Duke of Wei, and she finally married and married someone she had liked for a long time.

Thinking of her frail and sickly brother, Jiang Daiyuan's heart ached, and the hands on her knees tightened again.

Mrs. Jiang said that she deliberately 'imitated her cousin's dress', she was because Lu Yunzhen praised her for looking good in a silver-red dress, and she only wore that dress that day.

Because of her mother, Mrs. Jiang was very disgusted with her bleeding her mother's blood. After the death of her father, mother and sibling brother, her life in Jiangfu was even more difficult, and her treatment in Jiangfu was not even as good as that of the concubine in the second room. Every year, Jiangfu uniformly cuts dresses, and she is the last one to pick out the leftovers from her sisters.

On one occasion the leftover fabric happened to be something she rarely liked, and she was looking forward to cutting it into a garment. But when the embroidery lady sent the ready-to-wear to Jiangfu, she found that the fabric she liked before had been taken away by her cousin, and the last thing she got was the silver-red dress.

Maybe she had a lot of expectations before, or maybe she missed her parents too much, when she hugged the silver-red dress, it was rare that she couldn't hold back squatting next to the rockery in the garden and crying.

At that time, Lu Yunzhen took the initiative to approach her, and her tone was a little casual and casual, "It's just a piece of clothing, as for crying so sadly?" ”

His hand ran around his waist, but he didn't touch the money bag. He took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Jiang Daiyuan, "This silver-red dress suits you very well." Don't cry, this jade pendant is enough to buy you several dresses. ”

Although he should not have an impression of her, she recognized him. For the sake of the marriage contract between the two families, every time he came to Jiang Mansion, Mrs. Jiang would let a few girls from Jiang Mansion meet him, but he never looked at them seriously. It's just that my cousin has more intersection with him.

That intersection was not taken to heart by him, but she did. She began to cherish every opportunity to see him, though each time she could only look at him from afar, or at most bow to him with her sisters.

It's just that that's it at most, and she doesn't expect to have any closer intersection with him. She was able to marry him as she wished, and her cousin's accident was also unexpected by her.

That day, when she learned that he went to Jiang Mansion, she put on that silver-red dress, originally wanting to say goodbye to her secret love, and in the future, he would marry her sister, or marry a lady from another mansion, and she might not even have the opportunity to watch him silently in the future.

But that day, his eyes fell on her unexpectedly.

It's like a dream that was about to be put down, stirring up a circle of splashes, and it can't be calmed down for a long time.

.

Another hour passed, and Lu Yunzhen still did not return to the new house. Jiang Daiyuan's heart that had been suspended and worried because of today's wedding gradually sank.

"Mrs. Shizi, this is a pastry that the slave secretly hid in her sleeve, do you want to eat a little bit and pad your stomach first?"

Yuzhan handed two pieces of pastries to Jiang Daiyuan and said with concern.

Originally, on a day like today, a considerate husband would instruct his subordinates to bring some meals to the bride in the new house. But Lu Yunzhen didn't go back to the new house today, let alone intimately help Jiang Daiyuan prepare meals. Next, Jiang Daiyuan has to have a cave room with Lu Yunzhen, and she is worried that Jiang Daiyuan's body will not be able to bear it.

Jiang Daiyuan still ate a little bit in the morning, how could she not be hungry after a busy day today? Although she felt that it was not proper to eat at this time, her body was indeed a little unable to support it.

Before Jiang Daiyuan reached out to touch the pastry in Yuzhan's hand, there was a sound of footsteps outside the house. Jiang Daiyuan withdrew his hand, and Yuzhan also hid the pastry back in his sleeve.

Jiang Daiyuan pursed her lips nervously, is he here?

The door of the house was pushed open from the outside, but the person who came in was not today's groom official Lu Yunzhen.

"The prince drank a lot of wine today, got drunk, and was helped to the study. Mrs. Shizi should rest early today. ”

The person who came blessed Jiang Daiyuan and explained his intention.

Jiang Daiyuan waited for Lu Yunzhen for a long time today, and was despised by the subordinates of the Duke of Wei. At this time, when he heard that Lu Yunzhen was not coming to the new house, the jade protector was anxious, and suddenly couldn't help but say: "Today's wedding of the prince, since the prince wants to rest, why don't you help the son to come to the new house?" ”

She thought that her subordinates deliberately let Lu Yunzhen snub Jiang Daiyuan, and took Lu Yunzhen to the study without permission.

Mama Kang, who came to pass the word, smiled and said, "What does the master mean, how dare we dare to disobey?" ”

The implication is that going to the study to rest is Lu Shizi's own idea.

Yuzhan looked back at Jiang Daiyuan, on the wedding night, Lu Yunzhen did not stop in the new house, isn't this deliberately humiliating Jiang Daiyuan?

"What does Mama mean that the prince will rest in the study tonight and will not go back to the new house?"

Jiang Daiyuan's hand fell on the red hijab on his head, and the hijab was removed, revealing a beautiful face.

Lu Yunzhen would rather have someone help her to the study, she can't wait for him to come and cover her head tonight.

Mama Kang looked at Jiang Daiyuan's face under the red hijab, and was rarely stunned. This was the first time she had seen what the lady in front of her looked like.

Jiang Daiyuan's cousin's beauty name, she has naturally heard of it. She had also met Jiang Daiyuan's cousin. It's just that compared with Jiang Daiyuan's cousin, who has always had a good reputation, Jiang Daiyuan basically didn't appear in front of everyone, even if there was news about her, it was not a good rumor, and some people even speculated that Jiang Daiyuan was not good-looking, and her appearance was far inferior to her sister, so she rarely appeared in front of everyone, and basically stayed in Jiangfu without leaving home.

Knowing that Jiang Daiyuan was going to marry their son, Mama Kang also wronged their son.

At this time, she found that Jiang Daiyuan's appearance was not inferior to her sister. Compared with Jiang Xinying's sister, after careful consideration, Jiang Daiyuan is more similar to Jiang Xinying. It's just that Jiang Daiyuan and Jiang Xinying are two different beauties, if Jiang Xinying is a bright and scorching peony, Jiang Daiyuan is more like a legacy and independent, soft but tenacious orchid.

For example, at this time, Jiang Daiyuan's watery eyes looked at her, and Mama Kang actually had a feeling that she couldn't bear to disturb her. Just now she said that the prince had gone to the study, and asked Jiang Daiyuan to rest earlier, but doesn't that mean that the prince won't go back to the new house tonight? It's just that she didn't expect Jiang Daiyuan to say it so bluntly.

Although Mama Kang did not answer, Jiang Daiyuan and Yuzhan already knew the answer.

He would rather rest in his study tonight than come to see her in his new room. Is it because she is the one who marries him today, not her sister?

"Since the prince is drunk, I bother my mother to make a bowl of sobering soup, I will go to the study to see the prince." Because she sat upright for too long, Jiang Daiyuan's body was numb, and she stood up slowly.

Jiang Daiyuan actually wanted to go to the study to see Lu Yunzhen? Mama Kang glanced at Jiang Daiyuan deeply and found that Jiang Daiyuan's words were not false kind words. She originally wanted to stop it, but thinking of Jiang Daiyuan's identity, she didn't say anything, and went out to let the little maid in the courtyard boil the wine soup.

The master's affairs are not something that she, a subordinate, should meddle in. If Jiang Daiyuan was scolded by Lu Yunzhen, it was also their master's business.

.

It doesn't take much time to boil the decanting soup, and when Mama Kang brings the decanting soup, Jiang Daiyuan and Mama Kang walked towards the study.

Walking out of the new house, the cold wind that belonged to the middle of the night blew on Jiang Daiyuan's wedding dress, and Jiang Daiyuan subconsciously hugged her arms.

When I walked up the steps, I saw a small servant standing outside the study. When she saw Jiang Daiyuan and Mama Kang, a look of surprise flashed in the little girl's eyes, and it seemed that she was very surprised that Jiang Daiyuan would appear here.

Jiang Daiyuan was still wearing a red wedding dress, and it was easy to recognize her identity.

Jiang Daiyuan pointed to the sobering soup in Mama Kang's hand and explained her intention to the little girl.

"I'm sorry, but the little one didn't dare to let Mrs. Shizi in." The little guy looked embarrassed.

Jiang Daiyuan had no intention of embarrassing the little girl, she said: "You go in and say goodbye, let the prince drink the sobering soup, if you don't want to see me, I will leave." ”

The implication is that she didn't deliberately come to make trouble because Lu Yunzhen was resting in the study.

On the wedding night, he was left in the new house by his husband. Jiang Daiyuan's face showed no resentment. The little guy was also a little surprised by Jiang Daiyuan's good temper in his heart, but he still didn't dare to let Jiang Daiyuan in.

If he let Jiang Daiyuan into the house today, he would be the one who was scolded by Lu Yunzhen.

The little guy didn't even want to go in and say a word, and Jiang Daiyuan's heart was also a little angry. When she came over just now, a cold wind blew, and her rouge face was a little white from the cold.

While several people were arguing, Lu Yunzhen's voice came out of the house.

"What's going on outside?"
