The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 140

Wang Xifeng was taken aback, and immediately said angrily, "You are dead, you didn't make a sound when I came in?" After she finished speaking, she came to the bronze mirror, took the jade bracelet from Jiamu, and took a picture of herself. stand up.

Jia Lian looked up at Wang Xifeng, who was looking at the stinking face in the mirror, "Just now Prince Zhongjing sent someone to see me and asked me some things, which made me a little puzzled."

Wang Xifeng asked strangely, "Loyalty Wang Shizi, when did you have friendship with him?"

"I've only met him a few times around the prince of Dongping, so there's no friendship here." Jia Lian shook his head, and continued, a little confused, "He just sent someone to ask me, how does cousin Xue look like? Is Prince Zhongjing interested in Cousin Xue?"

"That's unlikely. Baochai is not bad looking, but their identities are too different."

Jia Lian also nodded in agreement. The husband and wife guessed for a long time, but they couldn't figure it out, so they had to let this matter go.

……

After Tu Zhen and the others left, Mu Xu ordered Mei Jian and the others to pack their bags and head back home.Due to the encumbrance of the female relatives, it was already the beginning of the night when he returned to the mansion.

The next day Mu Xu came to grandmother's place early, seeing him coming back, Concubine Zhang asked curiously, "When did you come back, no one told me?"

"The grandson went back home last night. Seeing that it was getting late, he didn't come to disturb grandma."

Concubine Zhang also asked casually, and naturally did not say more after hearing Mu Xu's explanation.On the contrary, during the meal, they talked about Mu Xu's marriage,

"In three days' time, it will be the day when Lin Yatou is married. Yesterday, the Lin Manor sent an invitation card. I will take Tong'er to watch the ceremony, and I will let the matchmaker Nan'an Taifei mention your wedding date. Wait. His father agrees, our family should let Qin Tianjian set a date, and try to finish your marriage in the first half of the year."

Mu Xu was startled when he heard this, and knew that he had nothing to say about it. Even if he said that he would marry later, his grandmother would not listen, so he said directly, "Grandma can do it as she sees it. Here is a gift for Daiyu, and grandma will bring it to her. After all, we have already engaged, and I can't see her in public."

"Well, that's natural." Concubine Zhang nodded in satisfaction when she saw that he had no objections.Thinking that her grandson will soon get married, Concubine Zhang was very happy, and she couldn't help but think of her granddaughter again, so she told Mu Xu, "Go to Zhongjing Palace today and bring back that crazy girl Tonger. From the sixteenth day of the first lunar month until now , I’ve been playing for half a month, and I haven’t come back, this temper is too wild.”

Mu Xu replied with a smile, "This girl has no playmates in our house. Isn't she like-minded with that girl Ying'er now? I'll come and catch her in the afternoon and hand her over to my grandmother."

Concubine Zhang nodded with a smile. The grandparents and grandchildren were talking when they saw a girl walk in, and she leaned back and said, "Concubine Zhang, son, a father-in-law came outside and said that he has a purpose."

Mu Xu was a little puzzled, didn't he just met Tu Zhen yesterday, why didn't he hear what he said, so he asked, "Didn't you say it was for whom?"

The girl replied, "Say it's for the son."

After hearing this, Mu Xu stood up and said to Concubine Zhang, "Grandmother sit down, I'll go see what's going on."

He came out of Songhe Hall and came all the way to the front courtyard, and saw Zhao Le standing in the courtyard holding the imperial decree.Seeing him coming, Zhao Le smiled all over his face, "This servant has seen the son."

"Eunuch Zhao is very polite." Mu Xu clasped his fists politely, and then asked, "What is Your Majesty's will for me?"

Hearing his question, Zhao Le showed a strange look on his face, and he handed the imperial decree to Mu Xu, "Your Majesty said that you don't need to read this decree, but just give it to your son." Seeing Mu Xu took it, he didn't wait for him to check the content , and immediately said goodbye, regardless of Mu Xu's persuasion, and left in a hurry.

Judging by his performance, Mu Xu didn't know that there must be something strange about this imperial decree.So he quickly unfolded it for a closer look, and then he showed a look of disbelief, and saw that it was written impressively that Xue Baochai was bestowed on him as a concubine.

He came back yesterday and thought about what method Tu Zhen would use to block Tu Qi's mouth, come on, don't think about it now.As a person who has seen the Red Mansion in his previous life, if he said that he has no idea about Xue Baochai, he must be lying.But the conscience of heaven and earth, he just thought about it, and didn't intend to take any real measures.Because he was full of plans, he only met the girl once, and he couldn't do the thing of robbing the girl from the people. Now it's all right, and his caring cousin helped him take care of the matter.

He was still a little happy in his heart, but then he screamed inwardly, not knowing how to tell Daiyu about this matter, after all, there was something wrong between her and Xue Baochai.

"My son, the concubine asked me to call you over." Chuntao's arrival interrupted his thoughts.

Mu Xu nodded, and went back to his grandmother with Chuntao.As soon as she saw him, Concubine Zhang said with concern, "I heard people say that after you received the imperial edict, you lost your mind in front of you, but what happened?"

Mu Xu didn't speak, but just handed the imperial decree to his grandmother.Concubine Zhang took it, looked at it suspiciously, and then she also showed a strange look, and asked after a while, "Where did this Xue family come from? Why don't I remember that there is a surname Xue in Beijing?"

Mu Xu had no choice but to explain the reason for this matter, and Concubine Zhang didn't care about Mu Xu having an extra concubine.In her opinion, it would be better for her grandchildren to marry more at a time.She is concerned with other things,
"Is the Xue family's family status too low? I don't know how this girl looks like?"

After thinking for a while, Mu Xu still told about how he met Xue Baochai, and then described her appearance and personality to Concubine Zhang.

Concubine Zhang listened, and nodded in satisfaction, "From what you've said, this girl seems to be pretty good." Then she noticed that Mu Xu's face was somewhat embarrassed, and she frowned, "What's wrong?"

Mu Xu hesitated and said, "I'm going to marry Daiyu soon, and I'm afraid it's too rude to make such a sudden incident."

"Well, Miss Lin is your official wife, and you should inform her about this matter both emotionally and rationally." Concubine Zhang pondered for a while, "Forget it, I will go to the Lin Mansion in two days and I will personally explain it to her father and her. of."

Mu Xu was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked her grandmother.

……

At this time, the Xue family, the mother and son who had received the imperial edict, also looked at each other in blank dismay.Xue Pan came back yesterday and told Aunt Xue, mother and daughter, that he had met the emperor, and the emperor promised to be the master of his own family. The mother and daughter were overjoyed.

But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, such an accident would happen.Aunt Xue looked at her son, but saw him standing there, apparently he didn't know.Aunt Xue looked at her daughter again, only to see that her daughter was lowering her head, unable to see her expression clearly for a while.

The room was quiet for a while, Xue Pan came back to his senses, and he said happily, "I think this marriage is good, my lord... no, it's my future brother-in-law who is a good man, with a noble family background, my sister married She should be right."

When Aunt Xue heard that he had even changed his address, she was furious and slapped him on the arm before opening her mouth to curse, "You bastard, what are you talking about, I haven't asked you yet, you That's how you beg for help, your sister is a child, you are very honorable, aren't you?"

Xue Pan rubbed his arms, and argued, "Mom, can you explain something? This is what the emperor wants. If you don't want to, it's against the decree and you will be beheaded!"

"You..." Aunt Xue was so angry with her son that her orifices were about to burst into smoke. She was about to scold again when Xue Baochai pulled down her sleeves and turned her head to look at her daughter.

But Xue Baochai said calmly, "Mom, why do you blame brother? He also tried his best, just like what brother said, does our family still dare to resist the order?"

"My son, don't I feel that I have wronged you? With your appearance, if it weren't for the burden of your family background, even the imperial concubine would do it, but now you are a concubine, and that girl Lin is the concubine. Before we were in Rongfu At that time, because of your aunt's relationship, what should she do if she doesn't make fun of you in the future?"

Hearing her worries, Xue Baochai smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, Miss Lin is not that kind of person. She seems to like to care about every detail, but in fact, if you get along with her, you will find that she is a person with a bright moon in her arms. Most men are older. So you can rest assured that she will definitely not trouble me, on the contrary, I know her well, and I can gain a better foothold in the palace."

　I thought about it for a long time, it is too difficult for the protagonist to get in touch with Xue Baochai.If you haven't crossed over to Jia's house, you can't get in touch with an inner house girl for no reason.If the original heroine can be set up, let her show her face.But Xue Baochai is an ancient traditional woman, and everyone knows who she is, so we can only make such a blunt twist
