Chapter 240 Conspiracy (1)

And during the few hours Xie Xingyun stayed in the General's Mansion, the capital has exploded!

The people who witnessed moving more than a dozen boxes and cages ran around telling each other as if they had seen a ghost. After a while, every alley was discussing this matter.

"You read it right, the young master of the Zhenbei Hou family went to the General's Mansion to propose marriage!"

"I'm sure I'm not mistaken, the woman next to him is a well-known matchmaker in Kyoto, who specializes in business for dignitaries!"

"I don't know what treasures are contained in those boxes, and I don't know if the negotiation has been completed."

"It's definitely going to happen, that's Xie Xingyun! Famous young and well-known in Beijing, if the girl from the Bai family doesn't suffer from extinction, then she must be a couple of gods and immortals!"

"..."

The news seemed to have wings and flew into Lu Xi's ears.

She obeyed Princess Jing'an's words, and still lived in the guest room of Zhenbeihou's Mansion. Princess Jing'an had not returned to the Princess's Mansion these days. Ever since she met Xie Xingyun that day, she seemed to be a different person, and she was exceptionally quiet.

"Miss, the young master has personally gone to the General's Mansion of Zhen Guo to propose a marriage! It seems that he has stayed in the General's Mansion for a long time."

After hearing what the maid said, Lu Xi accidentally dropped a cup, "So fast..."

As soon as Bai Tanshen came back, he went to propose marriage, before she even had time to meet him, he actually went to propose marriage?

The servant girl knew what the girl in front of her was thinking, so she didn't answer the words, but said: "But I see, those young masters in the general's mansion should not agree so quickly, there is still room for change!"

"Ah."

Lu Xi thought the same way, but the word "marriage proposal" kept circling in her mind, she grasped the hem of the skirt, and then let go, "Let's go to the water pavilion."

Princess Jing'an likes to stay in this water pavilion in her spare time, and the master and servant soon saw the woman lying sideways on the beauty couch.

Lu Xi saw her calm face, it must be Xie Xingyun who cut it first and then played it!
Originally, Princess Jing'an was a little shaken, and it would be best to start with her.

She stepped forward with a gentle smile, blessed her body and said: "Congratulations, Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess!"

Princess Jing'an turned her eyes to look at her, and said indifferently: "Congratulations?"

"I heard that the young master has prepared a gift to propose marriage to sister Xianyu. Although the minister told you last time that sister Xianyu's physical problems may cause future troubles, but... the young master has gone to propose marriage. It must be the eldest princess." Your Highness, do you agree?" There was a harmless smile on the corners of Lu Xi's lips, "It seems that you are very satisfied with Sister Xianyu, both you and the young master are satisfied with this marriage, I should congratulate you!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Xi stood aside, staring at Princess Jing'an with bright eyes, refusing to let go of any slight expression of her.

The eldest princess must be furious!
The elders in the family are still there about the marriage proposal, but the eldest princess would rather lie here and bask in the sun than go to the general's mansion. Whether it's because the young master didn't tell her or she was dissatisfied with the marriage, what she said, according to Jing'an The princess has such a temper, she can't hold back her anger for sure!
Even if Xie Xingyun couldn't be prevented from proposing marriage, it would sound good to create some barriers between Bai Xianyu and Princess Jing'an.

Thinking about it, Lu Xi brought some anticipation.

Moments later, Grand Duke Jing'an took the initiative.

But there was no sullen look between his brows, but his tone was steady, "Yeah."

Lu Xi frowned, then quickly let go, and asked with a smile, "What is the meaning of this, Your Highness the Eldest Princess?"

"Didn't you say, congratulations to me?" Princess Jing'an scooped up a spoonful of ice silk bird's nest with a silver spoon, and said indifferently.

Lu Xi froze by the side for a long time before realizing the meaning of her words.

[My daughter, congratulations to Your Highness the Eldest Princess! 】

【Um. 】

But... this shouldn't be her answer!

Princess Jing'an should be angry, angry, and even rush to the general's mansion to ask for all the gifts sent by Xie Xingyun, and give Bai Xianyu a vicious warning!

How could it be a calm "hmm"!
Lu Xi's heart was turbulent, and he asked unwillingly: "His Royal Highness, do you mean that you... are satisfied with this marriage?"

Princess Jing'an paused, and silently glanced at her.

Lu Xi immediately realized that she had said something wrong, she was a little impatient, Xie reluctantly smiled and explained: "Don't get me wrong, because before the servant girl saw that you still seemed to have some concerns about this marriage, which is a little different from your current attitude. , so I feel a little curious."

Princess Jing'an dug another spoonful and seemed to accept the answer. She chewed carefully and swallowed, "The original was the original, and the present is the present. Yun'er can marry her if she likes it."

Lu Xi resisted this answer very much in her heart, but she couldn't do anything, neither could she stop Xie Xingyun from proposing marriage, nor could she prompt Princess Jing'an to sabotage the marriage!

"So today, the young master is going to propose marriage, is it also ordered by His Royal Highness the eldest princess?" Lu Xi asked sideways, "But how did I hear that the matchmaker went to propose marriage?"

There must be a lump in my heart!

She didn't believe that she couldn't arouse the eldest princess' anger.

But this time, Lu Xi was disappointed again.

Princess Jing'an nodded under her gaze, and said, "Yun'er said..."

Lu Xi pays the most attention to manners, and has always been a model of noble ladies in Kyoto, but now he lost his composure, subconsciously leaning forward, and the veil and silk threads in his hands all came loose.

But Princess Jing'an didn't finish her sentence, so she stopped by herself, and immediately showed a bit of embarrassment on her face, and changed the topic, and turned to Lu Xi, "By the way, I am in a much better mood now, and you don't have to Stay here with me, if Yun'er or the in-laws find out later, it will have a bad influence."

Lu Xi bit her lips tightly, "Your Highness, I..."

"Okay, I'm tired, let's step back."

Guo Ying stood in front of Lu Xi when she heard the words, brushed away her hand that was trying to touch Princess Jing'an calmly, and said with a smile: "Miss Lu, now you can take your servant to pack your things, and the servant will let you Prepare the carriage and take you back home before dark."

Guoying is the dowry maid next to Princess Jing'an, and she was pointed out to Princess Jing'an by the former empress. Her status is extraordinary, and her meaning also represents the meaning of Princess Jing'an.

Lu Xi knew that she couldn't stay anymore, but she was not convinced if she left like this!
"Your Highness, the court lady brought a lot of things, and my home is a little far from the Marquis' Mansion. Can I come back tomorrow?"

It was dark.

Princess Jing'an yawned and said calmly, "Well, let's keep it for now."

No matter how urgent you are, you still need to have dinner before sending people back, otherwise it won't sound good to spread the word. It will be dark after dinner, so there is no need to be in a hurry.

After receiving the words of Princess Jing'an, Lu Xi's heart is still on hold.

There is only one night, she has to make good use of it!
After Lu Xi left, Guo Ying also became curious, and asked with a smile: "Your Highness, I also want to know why you didn't come to propose marriage in person. After all, the ceremony is prepared according to the gift list?"

That day after the young master came back from Jiangnan to meet the eldest princess, the eldest princess asked her to prepare a door-to-door gift. Even though there was a quarrel afterwards, Keli still prepared it correctly. If she didn't have this intention, she would definitely not be allowed to prepare it. up.

But since there is this, why not go?

Princess Jing'an was silent.

She has all the gifts ready, and she must be going to come to the door by herself!

But when the palace banquet came back that day, Yun'er said that he was going to propose a marriage, and that if she came to the door, he would mess things up, as if he was forcing her!

Princess Jing'an was angry and sad, but in her heart she faintly felt that what he said was right, if those boys refused, she might really put on airs, that's why she was a little depressed.

But Guoying didn't want to tell such a thing, let alone an outsider.

She glanced at Guoying, and said: "Wouldn't it be better for him to come to the door by himself, maybe the girl from the Bai family would not be happy to see me."

Guoying didn't ask any further questions, but smiled slightly.

……

After Xie Xingyun left Bai Xianyu, he went straight back to the General's Mansion.

Sure enough, Bai Mohuai sent someone to send back the things he sent back intact. At this time, many people surrounded the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

Because many of the treasures inside were precious objects, they couldn't stand the bumps of the carriage, so they were all picked up by the guards.

Even though Xie Xingyun lingered in the general's mansion for a while, it was just in time for the guards of the Bai family to enter the mansion with boxes and cages.

At this time, many people have gathered around and are discussing privately:

"Why did you send it back again? Didn't negotiate!?"

"There must be no marriage, otherwise there is no reason to send back the things of the in-laws!"

"I just said it's not that easy. Miss Bai's family is so easy to marry! Those who say that Miss Bai's family can't have children and can only be a concubine, open your dog eyes and have a look!"

"..."

Xie Xingyun's hearing was quite good, but he didn't feel anything when he heard these remarks. Instead, there was always a slight curvature on the corners of his lips.

Whenever he thinks of the girl's reluctance before he leaves, he can't wait to turn around immediately and hold her tightly in his arms.

Her affection for him became more and more undisguised, and even the focused eyes made him a little at a loss.

He stepped into the yard, but Xiao Zheng on the right back said "Huh", "My lord, is that Miss Bai Wu?"

Xie Xingyun raised his eyes to look, and quickly retracted his gaze, his tone was slightly cold, "See clearly."

Xiao Zheng rubbed his eyes and looked carefully for a long time.

The girl turned her back to them, wearing a familiar jade-white long dress, with low-key and luxurious hairpins on her head, she looked a bit like Fifth Miss Bai in terms of dress and manner.

"This subordinate is wrong. This is not Miss Bai Wu. Miss Bai Wu has a thinner waist and looks thinner."

Xie Xingyun paused, his eyes darkened slightly, and his voice was mixed with frost, "You are getting bolder now."

Xiao Zheng suddenly covered his mouth, knowing that he had said something outspoken and presumptuous just now, so he could only remedy it by saying: "This subordinate knows his mistake."

"Go and receive the punishment yourself." Xie Xingyun said with a blank face, "I'm not going to make an example."

"Yes!"

The woman in front seemed to have heard their voices, picked up the veil and put it on her heart, and turned around slowly.

This time, Xiao Zheng could see her face clearly, isn't this the woman who went to the boat that day?
what do you say that is?

He couldn't remember very clearly at the moment.

Xie Xingyun didn't even give her a look, stepped into the yard, and said in a cold voice, "When will my yard become a place where anyone can come in and out at will?"

Xiao Zheng hurriedly said: "My lord, this subordinate will take her away!"

"Wait, Young Master, I'm Lu Xi!"

Xiao Zheng didn't know why, he kept hitting the gun as soon as he came back, he couldn't help whispering: "Don't say your name is Lu Xi, even if you are Li Xi, you have to leave."

Li Weiguo's surname.

Lu Xi became cruel and bit Xiao Zheng's arm hard!

"what are you doing!"

Xiao Zheng's arm went numb, and he reflexively threw him far away!

There is already a circle of bloodstains on the arm, which is very shocking to look at.

He rubbed and hissed, and saw that Lu Xi had just been thrown to the ground by him, only one step away from Xie Xingyun.

Startled, he immediately ran forward.

But Lu Xi was even faster, hugging the man's boots.

"Little Marquis, I'm Lu Xi! I came today to tell you something. I know that today you are going to propose marriage to Sister Xianyu. I also heard from the Eldest Princess that Sister Xianyu cannot bear children for you, but I can! "

Xiao Zheng gasped, cursed a few times inwardly, and didn't dare to look up at the man's face.

Xie Xingyun's face was so heavy that he could drip water, and he easily kicked her away, "You deserve it too?"

Lu Xi only felt severe pain in her lungs, a slight sweetness in her throat, and bloodshot eyes after coughing. She knew that she didn't have much time left, so she finished speaking immediately:
"I know that sister Xianyu is the one you love, Brother Xingyun, but the Zhenbeihou Mansion must have no heirs, and the eldest princess has always been worried about sister Xianyu's body. She will marry you as a legal wife. I, I can be you of the concubine!"

Xiao Zheng found a rope and tied him up immediately, he didn't want to be bitten again!
Lu Xi didn't realize it, just seized the time, and spoke quickly, "In the future, the child born to you and me, Young Master, can be placed under the name of Sister Xianyu. In this way, people outside will not gossip, and I will never gossip about the child. Come back, can you?"

In her heart, she felt that Bai Xianyu had taken advantage of such conditions.

Think of her as the daughter of a majestic doctor, and her family is well-known. She is also well-known among the aristocrats in this capital for her gentleness. No matter who she is, except for the emperor, she can be the official wife of any prince or general!

The side room is also inferior, not only has food and clothing expenses restricted, but also suffers from the anger of the main room everywhere!

For the sake of Bai Xianyu's face, she would give up the child she gave birth to. Did Bai Xianyu suffer a disadvantage?
Lu Xi felt that no one would refuse!

As long as Xie Xingyun relaxes, there will definitely be nothing wrong with the eldest princess!
"If the young master thinks that he can't deal with sister Xianyu's brothers now, I can wait!"

Xiao Zheng has refreshed his horizons. He thought that Lu Xi should be a lady from a famous family, who is more polite than Miss Bai Wu, the younger sister from Qingzhou, but he didn't expect to be like this!

Sure enough, the rumors are unbelievable!
After Lu Xi finished speaking, he looked at Xie Xingyun with confidence.

But who knows, the tall man sneered, his black eyes were sharp, "Her child can only be me and her child."

Lu Xi's smile froze on his face.

This is rejected?
She is willing to be his concubine, shouldn't he agree?There is no harm to him or Bai Xianyu!

She looks no worse than Bai Xianyu!
"If you like being a concubine so much, why don't I arrange a marriage for you." Xie Xingyun's handsome face looked like a god, and he slightly lifted his closed eyes, "Xiao Zheng, please come to Lu Douzhi."

Lu Xi's complexion changed drastically.
