Marrying blindly and by mistake, the general’s misplaced wife

Chapter 148 There is an embarrassment that makes your mother-in-law think you should get married.
As soon as this was said, no one objected.

Because many people are indeed old enough, they will go to the county examination first to pass the child examination, and then take the government examination and college examination a few years later, and continue to accumulate experience. There are very few people who do this all at once.

Lu Yuyang chuckled and said: "Yes, yes, what you said is right, then we will wait and see to see Mr. Kong win the top prize! At that time, the boss of Wangyue Tower will not be allowed to give Mr. Kong three days for free alone!"

The endless teasing in his words made Kong Changan so angry that his face turned green.

At the same time, Xia Yuxuan's face turned blue.

With so many powerful people coming, can he, a [-]-year-old from the capital, enter Chunwei High School?If you can't win, can't you be named the crown prince?

Although even Xia Haicheng had comforted him, it was normal not to be granted the title of Crown Prince once. King Qingjiang's Crown Prince had to grant the title seven times before the Emperor agreed.A prince represents a family's recognition of a certain younger generation. It is a family matter and the emperor will not interfere too much.

Just ask for the seal again after the battle has passed. The emperor is too embarrassed to keep denying it after too many times.

But this did not comfort Xia Yuxuan at all.

Xia Chixiao, why doesn't he die?
God seems to be deliberately against Xia Yuxuan. In less than two days, Beijing will receive good news from Xia Chixiao.

The bandits were suppressed with overwhelming force, and Qi Sheng Emperor was in a good mood that could be seen with the naked eye.

Of course, there are also some discordant voices.

For example, he assimilated to the prefect Zhao Xuqing and joined Xia Chixiao to interfere in local garrison military affairs, disrupt local government affairs, and interfere in criminal administration and prisons;

For example, the governor of Zeyi County, Shen Xia Chixiao, supported his troops with self-respect, was extravagant and arrogant, relied on his status as an imperial envoy, did not take the local officials seriously, and enslaved the officials like his own servants;

For example, the prefect of Hua'an, Shen Xia Chixiao, was headstrong, greedy for money and lustful. Women often appeared in the military tents, and sometimes there were even hundreds of women in the camp.All proceeds from the suppression of bandits go to private treasury;
……

These participation notes are no less than Xia Chixiao's good news.

All the details of the Qi Sheng Di Jia were missed and they were still hammering away at the court: the soldiers were working hard outside, but some officials were trying their best to catch the wind and make nonsense.Such officials are either incompetent, have ulterior motives, or are jealous.Such officials are not allowed to exist in the DPRK. If there is a next time, they will never be hired!

Who knew who those local officials belonged to? The whole hall was silent after the emperor's beating.

At the same time, many people were jealous. Xia Chixiao had indeed won the Holy Heart. If another person was involved in so many twists and turns, no matter whether the matter was true or false, it would always arouse suspicion.But here in Xia Chixiao, the emperor had no doubts.

Many generals also secretly regretted it. If they had known that it would be so easy to suppress the bandits, why would they have to retreat and stand in the way?The credit given to him was actually pocketed by a young boy like Xia Chixiao.

Xia Haicheng originally wanted to miss the limelight and ask Xia Yuxuan to be crowned prince again, but he didn't dare to ask now. He thought it would be better to wait until after the Spring Festival, and it wouldn't be too late to ask Yuxuan to be crowned prince after he reaches high school!
Some people are happy and some are worried about such a holy family member.

Jingyuan is a gathering place for dignitaries in the capital, with silk and bamboo orchestral music, charming music, enchanting singing and dancing, but with an air of elegance.

This place is only open to a very small number of people, similar to the high-end membership clubs of later generations.

There are four courtyards inside, each with a different landscape pattern, exquisite pavilions, pavilions, and pavilions. Not only is each courtyard unique and highly private, but different guests in the courtyard are also highly private. .

Not only would they not be disturbed here, but they would also be private and no one would spy on what they were doing.

The east courtyard has been booked.

At this moment, a group of beauties with graceful figures and cool clothes were dancing in the hall.

Sitting on the main seat was a young man. He was young and had a weak crown. He wore indigo blue brocade clothes with luxurious patterns embroidered with gold thread. An aura of wealth emanated from his bones, which could not be ignored.

His face was a little gloomy. There were two beauties with excellent looks sitting next to them, pouring wine and feeding them. He lazily stretched out his arms to hug one of them, and his free hand was wandering around the beauties' bodies in boredom.

But it was obvious that his mind was not here, so there was only a sinister look in his eyes, but no lust.

A man walked in hurriedly.

The man waved his hand, the singing and dancing dispersed, the music stopped, and the beauties stepped back silently, including the two beside him.

The visitor saluted: "Your Highness, Fourth Prince!"

Shang Yuanwei was playing with a wine glass in his hand. He stared at An Guogong coldly and said nothing for a long time.

Duke An Guo forced a smile: "My lord, who made you angry?"

Shang Yuanwei suddenly said: "Cousin, do you think that this king has no hope, so you are perfunctory?"

An Guogong was shocked. He was the cousin of Concubine Xian. He had been tied to the fourth prince for a long time and had been working for the fourth prince. He really couldn't bear such a heavy sentence.

He hurriedly said: "Why did your Highness say this? I have always been loyal to Your Highness!"

Shang Yuanwei said quietly: "Don't you know what the situation in Tianchaotang is these days? Shang Jianye is so full of ambition now, haven't you seen it?"

Duke An Guo wiped his sweat and said, "Your Highness, don't take it to heart. An arrogant soldier will be defeated. If he gets carried away with himself, that's when he will fall down!"

"Bang", a wine glass hit the ground. Because there was a thick carpet, the wine glass didn't break, it just bounced up.Shang Yuanwei's face became even more gloomy, and he sneered: "Is Xia Chixiao really so difficult to kill? Do you still remember what you said at the beginning? What you mean to deal with him is to send some people to give some innocuous memorials?"

An Guogong was helpless and said: "Your Highness, those memorials are not painless. Moreover, our people attacked Xia Chixiao several times, but he was extremely alert, and his hands were like a piece of iron, unable to break through. We also killed a few people, Those people are all powerful local officials who have worked hard to arrange it."

"So we just let him go on like this? Just to see that Shang Jianye has another important military minister in his hands?"

"We can no longer use our own hands, but Your Highness, there is an organization in the world called Kamikaze Temple!"

Shang Yuanwei glanced at him coldly: "Since we knew there was such a place, why didn't we do it earlier?" He also wanted to sacrifice his own manpower.

An Guogong was also aggrieved.

Didn't he want to bring down Xia Chixiao in a fair and just way through political struggle?

He said: "I will make arrangements right now!"

Chu Nanning, who was firmly sitting in the capital but quietly expanding his business, was a little surprised when he received a letter and a gift.

The letter came from the North, and so did the gift.

The content of the letter is strange:
"Everything is safe in the north, and the suppression of the bandits is going well! I will be returning to Beijing soon, and I look forward to hearing from you then!"

Are he and her still friends?Just a familiar stranger.He had helped her, and she had helped him, but those were trivial things.Even though he helped him place many women who had been harmed by bandits, he still benefited from it, and he paid for it.

There was no need to tell her whether he was safe in the north and whether the suppression of bandits was going smoothly or not.

Still looking forward to a chat?It's so formal, huh, it's completely unnecessary!

Of course she didn't know how much paper Xia Chixiao wasted writing just these few sentences, thinking again and again, correcting again and again, the paper was short and the love was long, all of which was left unsaid.

Unfortunately, this literal meaning does not seem to be felt by the recipients of the letter.Chu Nanning opened the small box containing the gift and narrowed her eyes. This gift was also very valuable. It was a pair of top-quality jasper jade bracelets.In terms of value, this pair of bracelets can be exchanged for a four-bedroom house in a good area of ​​Beijing.

Neither the letter nor the gift was sent from the inn, but he specially sent someone to deliver it quickly from the north.

How many months has he gone to suppress bandits?
There are so many bandits in the north, and he will be able to return to Beijing soon. This ability is quite powerful.

Chu Nanning didn't think much about it. This gift was too expensive and she couldn't take it. She would give it back to him when he came back.

She was very busy and had no time to deal with Zhao Yuan and her daughter.

Although Aunt Guo, who was newly favored, knew that it was only temporary, she cherished it very much. This opportunity was given by the eldest lady, so not only was nothing deducted from Mingxia Garden, it was actually very generous.

When Chu Nanning returned to the house, Qiu Yi would inadvertently tell her some news about the house.

Qiu Yi is really a good person when it comes to inquiring about information.Chu Nanning deliberately trained her and taught her many skills.The autumn mood was revealed at once, and a few eyes and ears were actually developed in the house.

Qiu Shuang takes care of everything in Mingxia Garden.

At first, there were some careless stewards or aunts. Under Zhao Yuan's instigation, Qiu Shuang directly asked several women to beat Chu Nanning out while Chu Nanning was not in the house to cause trouble for Mingxia Yuan.

Their marriage contracts are in the hands of the eldest lady, so they will not listen to other people's words.Moreover, you are free to do things in the eldest lady's courtyard, as long as you do your job well, you don't have to be scolded, and you don't have to please others.

This is not the case in other yards.

When Chu Nanning came back that day and found out the whole story, instead of blaming them, she said that they had done a good job in protecting Mingxia Garden, and everyone was rewarded with a full ten taels of silver!
You know, they earn one or two per month, which is much higher than the maids and women in other hospitals.The third-class maids and rough envoy women in other courtyards only earn [-] yuan a month.

The eldest lady is so generous, how can they not try their best?
The servants of Mingxiayuan are very sticky, and Chu Nanning doesn't need to look at anyone's face, so it is very comfortable to live in the Anyuan Hou Mansion.

But she still went to spend a day with Mrs. Pei every two days, sometimes all day long.

What made her dumbfounded was that Mrs. Pei repeatedly encouraged her to attend more grand events. She also said sincerely: "Lan'er, you have missed the best age. Fortunately, young talents in the capital also get married late. As long as you meet If you like it, don’t hesitate any longer!”

The old lady sighed.

Grandfather and grandson are now dependent on each other, but how long can she live?This child has been delayed for three years and cannot be delayed any longer.

It's a pity that she is just a business woman now, she knows a limited number of people, has no connections in the capital, and can't plan for this child.

Chu Nanning: "..."

There is an embarrassment that makes your mother-in-law think you should get married!

Could it be that Mrs. Pei already believed that Pei Tingan was dead?
Of course she wouldn't bring up this topic, she just said with a smile: "Don't worry about this, as you said, you have to meet the one you like!"

The old lady said: "After you return to Anyuanhou Mansion, will you receive those party posts?"

It makes no sense that her Lan'er looks like this. It's been several months and she hasn't met anyone suitable!

Chu Nanning was very busy. Those parties were just for ladies to have fun in their boudoir. However, Chu Nanning expanded her shops and built charity halls in various places, including her own silk weaving workshops, garment workshops, and rouge craftsmen. Although these have not yet reached a large scale, she personally does the selection of personnel, long-term planning, and setting of short, medium and long-term goals for each store. She really does not have that much time.

Of course, despite the grand return banquet, those ladies were still proud. After all, the family status of the Anyuan Hou Mansion was not high.

Chu Yunzhao couldn't receive those.The reason why Chu Nanning received it was because Taifu Ye was her uncle.

The old lady said: "Then you have to promise grandma that you will attend as many such gatherings as you can!"

"Okay, I will listen to my grandmother!" Chu Nanning responded with a smile.

After dinner with the old lady, Chu Nanning stayed here. The next morning, Chu Nanning went back to Anyuan Hou Mansion.

I don’t know whether Mrs. Pei’s expectations moved the heavens, or whether the Anyuan Hou Mansion is really on the uphill road now. She had just returned to Mingxia Garden when Aunt Guo came to look for her.

Aunt Guo was very happy, and she said with a bit of flattery: "Miss, good news, what do you think this is?"

In her hands were two beautifully crafted posts.

Chu Nanning took it and saw that it was an autumn party organized by Qiao Zongyan, the second son of Duke Dingguo, and Qiao Ruomeng, the legitimate daughter.

A hundred miles away from the east city is Juwu Mountain. Although this mountain is not as good as Bowang Mountain to the east, it is also deep, green, and frequented by foxes and rabbits.

At the foot of the mountain is a good place for an outing. There is a crescent-shaped lake with beautiful scenery like a picture scroll.

That area is the property of Dingguo Gongfu. Every spring and autumn, it will be open for a few days for people to go out for autumn outings. When it is open, it is crowded with people and very lively.

He built a villa there, and usually, they would invite friends to play there.

This time, the young lady from Duke Dingguo's mansion was the host. It was crowded and lively, and all the people invited were high-ranking officials and young ladies from noble families.

She and Chu Yunzhao were invited in these two posts.

Aunt Guo said: "The eldest lady has the final say on how to deal with this post! If the eldest lady doesn't want to go, I will go back."

Chu Nanning's eyes fell on the words Dongcheng Juwushanxia, ​​and she smiled and said, "Go, of course!"

"What about the second lady?"

"Since you've invited me, Anyuan Hou's Mansion can't help but appreciate it. Hasn't the second lady's grounding time been lifted? Show this post to her, and she can decide for herself whether to go or not."

Aunt Guo flattered her: "Miss, you are really rich. I'll go right now!"

Zhao Yuan's confinement time has also come, but at this time, Chu Baikui did not ask Aunt Guo to hand back the keys and cards. She doesn't know whether she forgot, or Aunt Guo is looking for an opportunity to meet Aunt Zhang. Let's make him comfortable together.

Zhao Yuan was so angry that she couldn't help but feel resentful towards Chu Yunzhao. This child would cheat his mother after causing trouble.

She couldn't swallow this breath, but when Chu Xiong came back from Fei Academy on a day off and learned about this, he told Zhao Yuan not to make trouble and not be like that idiot Chu Yunzhao.

Zhao Yuan has been cooking in person these days and is trying to win back Chu Baikui's heart.

But Chu Baikui was really busy.

The imperial examination is held once every three years. Although autumn has passed, preparations for spring are about to begin, and the Ritual and Cleaning Department is the main force.

When Aunt Guo took the post over, Chu Yunzhao stared and said, "Of course I want to go, why don't I go?"

Her mother said she was stupid, scheming people in her own house, killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred to herself.This time she was outside and she wanted Chu Nanning to die!
