White Moonlight of Powerful Officials at large

Chapter 92
"Before I was in Jiangnan for a long time, Ah Ning was eager to talk about marriage. If I came back later, I'm afraid she would marry someone else's wife in a hurry to cover up her son's fault."

Pei You lifted the lid of the tea, took a sip of the tea, and remained calm throughout.

Rong Hua stared in surprise at Pei You who was calm and calm when talking about such a big matter.

No wonder, no wonder the Wen family's marriage was so hasty.The girl's background is not enough for the Duke's family, but it is not a problem for a young man of the right family. In the end, the person who proposed marriage with her was a businessman with little foundation in the capital. The widower of the first son.

This morning, Nanny Cui told her as a joke in her ear.

But I don't want to laugh at my own head!

"This matter is all the son's fault. Ah Ning is innocent and suffers. If it spreads, it will be very inappropriate for her, the Duke's mansion, or the child. Ah Ning has worked so hard on this, and even her family has never mentioned it." , and please mother to keep it secret, don't mobilize the crowd."

Pei You put down the teacup, got up and saluted.

Ronghua has seen strong winds and waves, and has been cultivating herself in the Buddhist hall for many years. She asked herself that she would be calm before Mount Tai collapsed, and her face would not change.

But this matter, she was so choked up that she didn't say a word for a long time.

Even if the folk customs are more open now, but there are children without media and employment, so what is wrong?If her background is unknown, if it spreads out, she will never be able to lift her head up for the rest of her life!

"It's getting late today, the son will leave first, and the mother will go to bed early."

Pei You bowed obediently and considerately, then turned and left.

Rong Hua sat quietly for a moment, slapped the table, and shouted, "Mommy! Nanny Cui! Go to Zhao Di's residence and pass Zhao Di over to me!"

The night has long been dark, but this night in the Duke's Mansion is not peaceful.

Hubu Shangshu came in a hurry and left sweating profusely. Gu Fei was also woken up in his sleep. He didn't understand why the eldest princess asked about the dust-cleaning banquet two months ago, and also asked about Wen Ning, so she just answered truthfully: "When I saw Miss Wen, there was indeed blood on her skirt."

At the same time, two maids in the palace were also sent for questioning, and then Doctor Shi, who had been used by the family for more than ten years, was also called over.

Everyone didn't ask many questions, but the eldest princess' complexion became more and more serious. She beat chickens and eggs all night, and couldn't wait for dawn, so she entered the palace overnight.

No one knows exactly what happened, only that on the second day, the Eldest Princess went out of the mansion once, and on the third day, Mammy Cui ordered the matchmaker to go to the Wen mansion of Honglu Siqing.

Pei Shao was expelled from the mansion, and now there is only one adult son, the eldest son, in the Duke's mansion. It is self-evident why the matchmaker went to make a promise of marriage.

On the same day, word came out from the Fuqu courtyard that the eldest princess praised Wen's Ah Ning for her elegance and good looks. Let the eldest son get married as soon as possible, and be full of joy.

Therefore, within a few days, the marriage between the Duke's Mansion and the Wen family was finalized, and the Eldest Princess took care of it herself, and asked about the dowry list one by one. From the public house, it can be seen that this marriage is very important to that girl from the Wen family, Ah Ning.

At three o'clock in the unitary hour, the setting sun falling on the desk moves back inch by inch until it disappears without a trace.

Pei You looked up at the sky outside, put down the wooden block in his hand, and went out with his hands behind his back.

These days the Duke's Mansion is bustling with people coming and going in various courtyards, but the main hall is not something that idlers can come in and out at will.In the evening, the outer courtyard was still filled with voices and footsteps, making the inner courtyard seem deserted.

Especially on the table full of dinner, only one person eats.

"Mother has entered the palace again?" Pei You asked without raising his eyebrows while eating his meal slowly.

Gu Fei immediately replied: "The steward said that the betrothal gifts are almost ready, so the eldest princess took the list and entered the palace."

"Where's father?"

"Master has eaten before, and is now in the study."

Pei You lowered her eyes, unable to see the color in her eyes, she did not stop eating, and she was always elegant and good-looking, she said "um" and didn't ask any more questions.

Gu Fei stepped back silently, frowning and pondering the meaning of his eldest son's question.

In the past few days, the prince didn't go out very often, and he didn't care much about the dowry, but he paid more attention to the movements of the eldest princess and Duke Pei.

On that night half a month ago, the eldest princess entered the palace overnight, and when he was reporting back and forth, the crown prince asked, "You didn't look for your father before, so you entered the palace directly?"

Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed a bit puzzling.

The son's marriage was not discussed with the master immediately, but entered the palace to discuss with His Majesty.

However, since the eldest son disappeared, the relationship between the Duke and the Eldest Princess has long since disappeared. After the Elder Son came back, there has been no improvement. Except for necessity, the Eldest Princess and the Eldest Princess do not often move around.

Moreover, His Majesty valued the eldest son, and originally planned to marry the eldest son and Princess Zhaohe, so it was reasonable for the eldest princess to go to the palace to report immediately when something happened.

But even His Majesty has to read the dowry list...

Gu Fei nodded his head. His family's eldest son really won the favor. In the past two years, King Rui's wedding may not have been able to get this honor! -
If it wasn't for worrying that Linglan thought she was crazy, Wen Ning would have wanted to be Pei You's villain and give him a stab at him!
This person is still as annoying as in his previous life.

Deliberately driving her into a daze, getting the word "marry" from her, coming to her door non-stop to propose marriage, and sending a "He Li letter" at the same time, as if the contract had been completed, she followed her own pace at her own pace, completely ignoring how she feels.

She took the initiative to invite her out regardless of past suspicions. What would he give her in return?
"none."

what!
Thinking of the big character Wen Ning made her furious.

Don't talk about Wude, right?

Then don't blame her for not talking about martial arts.

After all, their agreement was that when "Xiaoya" came back, she would abdicate even if it was less than three years.When she finds out the real culprit behind the murder of Wen Tingchun, she will return him the "Xiaoya" she has been thinking of!
Wen Ning pondered over this thought that came up when she was extremely angry, and she actually felt that it might not be impossible, but if she wanted to deceive someone like Pei You who was full of scheming, she had to be well-prepared.

Thinking of this, Wen Ning became less angry.

Anyway, he is a person who lives one more time, no matter how he does it, no matter why he wants to do it so fast.

If you marry, marry, if he makes her uncomfortable after marrying, she can always find a way to make him feel uncomfortable too!
Wen Ning took a deep breath, no longer thinking about this marriage, no longer writing letters to Pei You, and not even asking about outside matters, only focusing on embroidering her "multi-children picture".

The days passed quickly, on June [-]th, when He Luan passed the door, her multi-children picture was also before this day, and she was about to embroider it after a long night.

Wen Mansion has been lively for some time.

Ever since Wen Lan and He Luan discussed marriage, Wen Tingchun bought a vacant house next door, and called for labor to come over and merge the two houses into one, so that after He Luan entered the mansion, the old house would not look crowded.

Fortunately, after such an expansion, June [-]th was far more lively than expected. If the old house was kept as it was, the guests would probably have nowhere to go.

"Girl, there are many officials who are not very familiar with the master who are giving important gifts this time, I see..." Ling Lan leaned forward and whispered in Wen Ning's ear, "They all want to curry favor with Mr. Pei..."

After finishing speaking, he raised his chin quite proudly.

No one knew Linglan's mood these days, like a wild goose that suddenly grew wings, jumping from the bottom of the valley to the sky.Two days ago, she was still crying all night over her daughter's divorce, when suddenly, the Duke's Mansion came to propose marriage!
Not only did their girls not lose their marriage, but they also got a wonderful marriage that all the girls in the capital are envious of!

In the past, she was quite dissatisfied with Pei Shizi's cold treatment of her daughter, but when she knew that he came to propose marriage, it all disappeared!
Prince Pei's character is noble and pure, like the unreachable snow lotus on the top of the mountain. His many "unwelcome" in the past are probably... love is hard to express, so be ashamed!

How does Linglan think of Pei Shizi now? She has picked many sons and brothers, but none of them can compare to him.

"A while ago, the prince and his party in Jiangnan, brought back the corrupt official who confessed many big cases! Your Majesty praised the prince several times in front of civil and military officials, and only taught the few people who have been to Jiangnan in the past few years to lose face. They said they would treat that The crimes of the governor of Liangjiang and the eight governments of the south of the Yangtze River have been convicted, and once the son gets married, he will definitely be promoted again!"

Wen Ning was gesturing to the mirror with a pair of earrings.

Today when the bride enters the mansion, she can't dress up too much and steal the bride's limelight, but on the big day, it's not appropriate to be too plain.

Hearing what Linglan said, she angrily slapped the earrings on the dressing table.

Why is Pei You in this life promoted faster than in his previous life.

One year into his official career, he has already reached the third rank, so why should he be promoted to the second rank?
Linglan thought that Wen Ning was dissatisfied with the earrings in her hand, after all, the small pieces of jewelry she could afford were all exchanged for silver at the pawn shop last year...

"Girl, here is a box of jewelry from the Duke's Mansion. Would you like to choose?" She immediately turned around and took out a jewelry box.

The government's attitude towards her in this life is also quite strange.

It is clear that the eldest princess is not a person who regards family status as nothing. In her previous life, she was lukewarm and disgusted. In this life, she has never been a family member. She sends things to Wenfu every now and then, including jewelry and clothes. Many supplements.

I don't know whether it was given by the eldest princess or by someone from Pei You.

Thinking of the "no two pieces of flesh" in his mouth, I feel even more depressed.

"If I don't go out, forget it." Wen Ning put all the earrings she took out into the dowry, "There is nothing new in Beijing recently, and I will be talked about behind my back when I go out."

Linglan wanted to say that she would soon be the legitimate concubine of the Duke's Mansion, who would dare to gossip behind her back?
Wen Ning said again: "Go and help me see if Prince Pei is here?"

Linglan suddenly realized that her girl is also... shy?

"I'll go out and have a look!" Linglan put down the jewelry box and went out.

What Wen Ning actually thought was that if Pei You didn't come today, she would go out, if she came, she would just stay in Xiangti Garden.

She gets angry just thinking about him, let alone seeing him.

But after waiting in the room for half an hour, Linglan still hasn't come back.

There are many customers outside today, and other people in the yard have gone out to help.Wen Ning sat alone for a while, only listening to the more and more lively voices in the outer courtyard, gradually unable to restrain herself.

In the previous life, the Ryukyu prince's dust-cleaning banquet was at the beginning of June. At this time, Wen Tingchun had already been convicted and imprisoned. Therefore, Wen Lan and He Luan's marriage was postponed, and they never got married until later.

Watching the two get married has always been one of her long-cherished wishes.

It's all because of that annoying Pei You!

Wen Ning saw that the auspicious time for the two of them to visit the hall was approaching, and Linglan hadn't returned yet, so she couldn't sit still, so she randomly took a pair of earrings, put them on, got up and walked out.

Just as I opened the courtyard door of Xiangti Garden, I saw a person standing at the door.

Wearing a rare white dress, hair tied with a silver crown, gold-plated belt, hanging a light blue "Pei" jade pendant, raising his hand to knock on the door.

What a chic, handsome, and elegant son of the world.

Wen Ning backhanded with a "snap", closing the door and dropping the bar.

　Close the door and let the dogs go!
