"Really?" Rong Zhan raised his eyebrows, judging Rong Run.

"Yes, Brother Huang, don't you know, the second lady is careful, I have to be careful every time I talk to her, for fear that I will annoy her by saying half a word wrong. Rong Run rubbed his palms uneasily: "She has been angry all her life, but it is difficult to coax, and her brother is frightened every time, and she sweats in a hurry." ”

Rong Zhan laughed loudly and slapped Rong Run on the shoulder twice: "Since it's so terrible, does the sixth brother still want me to give you a marriage?"

Rong Runbian flattened his mouth and said: "Brother Huang, this is not terrible, this is happiness." In fact, Yuan Yue also has my brother in her heart, but she is too shy to tell her brother. She looked at her brother with a very special look, as if she was a clear spring. ”

"So you melted in this clear spring?" Rong Zhan looked at him with a smile.

Rong Run laughed twice: "The imperial brother is from the past, why bother to interrogate the younger brother? Didn't the imperial brother go through a lot of hardships for the sake of the imperial sister-in-law? trekking through mountains and rivers, walking alone from the capital to Yuexi, and being ...... by others."

"Ahem. Rong Zhan covered his mouth and coughed twice, if he chattered like this again, wouldn't he overturn his old bottom?

"Okay, my business, I will think about it carefully, first ask the queen what she means, and then ask Wei Dongshu what she means, and you also ask the queen mother what she means. ”

"Don't, the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, the emperor just ask Lord Wei directly, why bother the imperial sister-in-law? I heard that the imperial sister-in-law has not been in good health recently, and the marriage match is a troublesome matter, so don't make trouble for the imperial sister-in-law. When the happy event is settled, it's not too late to tell the imperial sister-in-law?"

Rong Zhan raised his right eyebrow and examined Rong Run, until he looked at Rong Run's hair.

"Brother Huang, why are you looking at me like this, is there anything dirty on my face?" Rong Run turned his face away, and smiled to avoid Rong Zhan's gaze.

"The sixth brother is a little weird today, why are you afraid that your marriage will be known by the imperial sister-in-law?"

"I'm not afraid, how can my brother be afraid of the imperial sister-in-law?" Rong Run said with a smile: "The younger brother is just thinking about the imperial brother, and the imperial sister-in-law is now pregnant with Liujia, it is really not easy to work, just ask Wei Dongshu directly about this matter." ”

Rong Zhan stared at Rong Run, and replied lightly, obviously not very satisfied with the reason he made up.

"Then according to the meaning of the sixth brother, why don't I announce this matter directly at the palace banquet?"

Rong Run was overjoyed, and almost jumped high: "It's okay like this, it's sudden and reasonable." The emperor's golden mouth and jade words, the Wei family can't help but obey it. ”

Rong Zhan smiled and snorted: "What you think is beautiful." He breathed a sigh of relief: "This matter is not discussed, and it must be explained clearly to the queen." There is also the queen mother, when the father said that he wanted to marry Chen Xiang to Wei Chengyong, the queen mother was very reluctant. Now that you are going to marry the daughter of a merchant, the queen mother must be even more dissatisfied, so you should think about how to tell the queen mother first. ”

"Yes......" Rong Runbian flattened his mouth, arched his hand, and slowly withdrew from the dormitory.

"Thinking about it is coming out of it. Rong Zhan turned around, picked up a folded notebook, and looked at Qin Shun: "What are you laughing at?"

Qin Shun hurriedly touched his mouth, hid his smile, and said, "When you go back to the emperor, the last general didn't smile?"

Rong Zhan threw down the music and tore off his hand: "You are clearly snickering." ”

Qin Shun shook his head: "Your Majesty, the last general just thinks that it is rare for the sixth master to lose his temper because of a woman." ”

Rong Zhan was stunned for a while, yes, he did lose his temper today. Thinking about himself, in fact, Rong Zhan can still understand Rong Run's mood very well, but with the Queen Mother, Rong Run really can't explain it. The Queen Mother wanted to choose the daughter of a famous nobleman to be the concubine for her two sons, and the Queen Mother looked down on Yuan Xi back then, and most of the reason was her background. Later, Yuan Xi's life experience gradually surfaced, and the Queen Mother was able to accept it.

It's just that this month, if she was just a businessman's daughter, her biological mother would be so unbearable. Although people are reluctant to say it openly, who doesn't know that the biological mother of the second miss of the Wei family secretly met with wild men and gave birth to a mongrel fourth girl. Rong Zhan thought about it, and couldn't help but sigh, why did all the unlucky things fall on the head of this second young lady?

If this matter was known to the Queen Mother, she would inevitably suspect that Yuan Yue was not the bloodline of the Wei family. Rong Run seems to really like Yuanyue, and even has to give her the position of the concubine, and says that she only needs to be a woman. If this marriage fails, the blow to Rong Run will not be small.

Wei Yuanyue and Yuan Xi have had a sisterhood for so many years, presumably their character can't be wrong. With so much gossip, this girl has already shown up to continue to open Xi Yintang, thinking that she is a very strong and self-respecting girl. That's a good point.

"How is the spirit of the Queen Mother today?" asked Rong Zhan.

"The Queen Mother is in good spirits today, and she went to the Inner Mansion in person and changed all the palace maids in the North Palace. The new palace maids were also rewarded, and no one had a piece of silk or silver. I heard that there was a palace maid named Lingzhi who was very pleasing to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother specially promoted her to be the palace maid in charge. ”

"That's good, I hope the sixth brother is at the Queen Mother's place and doesn't touch the nails. Rong Zhan picked up the fold again and read it carefully.

"Passing the decree, at night, it is still in the queen's bedroom, and the small kitchen called Zichen Palace is prepared first. ”

When Rong Zhan finished reviewing all the notes that had accumulated over the past few days, it was already sunset. The sedan chair was hurriedly carried to the door of Zichen Palace, and a lantern had been lit at the entrance of Zichen Palace.

Rong Zhan entered the dormitory, and when he saw that Yuan Xi was not there, he turned around and asked Xiangyun, "Where are you mothers?"

Xiangyun Fufu's body: "If you go back to the emperor, the master said that you will go to the warm pavilion to rest for a while, and then eat together when the emperor comes." ”

There are a few new vases in the warm pavilion, which is the copper red glaze of the Jun kiln, and there are a few newly opened pear blossoms in it, which are as white as snow, clustered and beautifully bloomed on the branches.

Rong Zhan stretched out his hand and stroked the flower spike, turned around and saw Yuan Xi taking a soft pillow, leaning on the couch to rest. She was only covered with a thin quilt and fell asleep, but it couldn't hide her bulging lower abdomen. The five fingers like shallots are exposed in the sleeves, gently holding the round belly. She looked very beautiful when she was asleep, and she looked a little obsessed with Rong Zhan.

Quietly walked to the bed and sat down beside her, Yuan Xi vaguely felt that there was someone around him, and slowly opened his eyes: "Are you here?"

Rong Run leaned down with a smile, stroked her soft lower abdomen with one hand, and said, "Why did you fall asleep with your clothes?"

"I wanted to lie down and wait for you for a while, but I fell asleep. Won-hee sat up with his body propped up.

He grabbed Won-hee's stomach and buried his cheek in her shoulder blade: "I'm sorry for you, pregnant with two children." ”

The fetus in the womb writhed restlessly, Rong Zhan was close, and he also felt that the child was moving, and stretched out his hand to lie on her lower abdomen in surprise: "You little thing, the father is here, are you very happy, aren't you?

Rong Zhan grabbed her waist with one hand, hugged her legs with the other, and hugged her Heng'er in his arms: "Let's go, go to dinner." Then I have something big for you. ”

The two children grew up very fast, squeezing their stomachs, so Yuan Xi couldn't eat anything, so he simply used half a quiche, Shi Yushui's stewed Buddha jumping over the wall today tasted very good, so he drank half a bowl of soup, Rong Zhan sandwiched two chopsticks chicken for her, and she ate a piece.

After dinner, the dishes on the table did not change much, so they asked someone to withdraw and reward the eunuchs and palace maids to eat.

Rong Zhan helped her, sat down slowly, and said, "Your appetite is too small, if you go on like this, can you eat your body and bones?"

"I don't usually eat so little, but today I just slept for a long time and didn't have much appetite. ”

Rong Zhan shook his head and said, "You, you have always reported good news and not bad news, and the things you eat every day are all there, and they are not the size of a fist together." What's wrong with this?"

Yuan Xi leaned on his shoulder, stroked his stomach and said with a shallow smile: "Your father feels sorry for you two and is afraid that you will be hungry." ”

"Are you jealous?" Rong Zhan turned his face sideways and kissed the corner of her lips: "I'm afraid that you will eat too little, your physical strength will be weak, and you will not have the strength to produce when the time comes." ”

"Where is it so delicate?" Yuan Xi smiled disapprerovingly: "Oh yes, didn't you say just now that you have something big to tell me?"

Not to mention that he almost forgot, Rong Zhan responded and said: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's the sixth brother, the sixth brother has taken a fancy to the second miss of your family and wants to marry the second miss as a concubine." I thought, you two sisters have a good relationship, I should ask you about this. ”

"The sixth master wants to marry the second sister?" Yuan Xi's heart was suffocated, and he only felt that his heart was beating like a drum, and he jumped wildly.

Rong Zhan saw that she was a little dignified, so he tentatively said, "What's the matter? If it's not right, I won't allow it." ”

Yuan Xi covered his heart, remembering what had happened in that small cabin ten miles outside the capital. I think of the mournful weeping of the Japanese month. remembered that when she was in Yuexi Prefecture, she received a letterhead from Yuanyue, and the paper was full of admiration for Rong Run.

Yuan Xi shook his head: "The second sister will never agree." ”

"Second Miss doesn't like the sixth brother?" Rong Zhan was stunned for a moment, this was the opposite of what Rong Run said to himself, and he didn't know who to believe for a while: "The sixth brother said, the second miss is thin-skinned, and she is embarrassed to talk about people if she likes them, could it be that she didn't tell you?"

Yuan Xi shook his head, this is impossible, Yuan Yue will never marry Rong Run, even if she loves Rong Yun deeply.

Because to marry him, you have to take the risk of deceiving him, and perhaps even more serious, that is, deception. With Yuanyue's character, she definitely can't bear to hurt Rong Run, marrying him is a harm, not marrying is another injury, and in both cases, it is not something that Yuanyue's fragile heart can bear.

Yuan Yue has encountered too many hardships, it is inevitable to be narrow-minded, if the sixth master is forced too tightly, what can she do on impulse?

"No, this matter can't be too hasty, it's useless for anyone to speak, you must listen to the second sister's meaning. Won-hee stood up suddenly, causing a throbbing pain in her abdomen, and the pain was so painful that she couldn't straighten her waist.

Rong Zhan hurriedly helped up: "Look at you, if you are pregnant with a child, you should not be careful, beware of the tire gas." Don't worry, I Ming'er sent a message to the Wei Mansion to ask the second miss to enter the palace, and you sisters have a good chat to see what the second miss means. ”
