Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 139 Is He Proposing Marriage?

Shen Mao is younger and has a nanny and maid, not to mention that Shen Ruopu has already confessed that Aunt Zhou will take care of his life.

Although Shen Qu and Shen Mao are Shen Yan's biological brothers, she has little affection for them.

Ji's treatment of her son and daughter is completely different. As the one who has been mistreated, it is impossible for her to have much affection for them who have been superior since childhood.

After Mrs. Ji left, she basically had no contact with their brothers, but recently that rumor has also reached her ears.

She was also guarding against any accidents, so she never stepped out of the house.

After breakfast, Pearl said that Wang'er was here, and Shen Xi let him in after drinking a few mouthfuls of shredded chicken porridge.

"I came to inquire. It turns out that Miss Han's Biao is currently discussing marriage with Prince Yan's son!"

Shen Xi was stunned suddenly.

Song Jiao and Xiao Huai discuss marriage?
Wang'er said: "Every year, the Ministry of Rites will select a part of unmarried men and women of the right age from the official households above the second rank to choose marriages.

"As a vassal prince with a higher status than the prince, the Prince Yan's Mansion receives marriage proposals from the Ministry of Rites every year, and this year, the Han family sent this cousin to the candidate list for marriage proposals.

"My little one found out outside the Han residence that today is exactly the day when Prince Yan sent someone to the Han residence to pick up Miss Song and meet him at the palace."

Shen Xi didn't know anything about this matter!
At the Han family that day, I heard Qiu Shi say that Song Jiao was discussing marriage, but it turned out that it was Xiao Huai who was discussing?
Liu Ling didn't even show a hint of his tone?

She grabbed the silk and pondered.

Although Song Jiao was not a young lady of the Han family, she was a relative of the Han family and the daughter of Wen Chan's only daughter, so she could barely be considered a good match.

But other things don't matter, if the Han family has an in-law relationship with Yan Wangfu, wouldn't it be even more difficult for her to attack Wen Chan in the future?

"What are the odds of this marriage?" she asked.

Wang'er couldn't decide how to answer, so she thought for a while before saying, "The odds of winning are great, right? After all, Ms. Song's status in the Han family is quite high."

Shen Xi frowned.

As far as Xiao Huai's virtue is concerned, it's nothing if not successful. If he becomes the grandson-in-law of the Han family, how can he allow her to break ground on Wen Chan's head?Just crush her to death casually.

But he and Song Jiao are in the same family, and the possibility of this matter hitting it off is indeed extremely high!

Didn't he send someone to pick Song Jiao into the palace to see him?
If he wasn't interested in Song Jiao, why would he send someone to pick her up?

Wang'er looked at her for a while, and couldn't help but asked, "Is this very important?"

She nodded.

She can still control the affairs in Shen's residence with one hand, but it is a bit difficult for her to control the affairs outside the residence, let alone involving the court.

If Shen Ruopu was among the first and second ranks, she might still be able to do something, but this——

But think about it again, why did the Han family suddenly marry Yan Wangfu?

As the two powerful ministers of the current dynasty, if they marry under such circumstances, wouldn't the mother and son in the palace let them be slaughtered?
Empress Dowager Zheng came here with Li Ding all the way to fight the world, and she won the final battle after many years of fighting in the palace. It is impossible for her to condone such a thing that is obviously unfavorable to her.

Moreover, the concubine of Prince Yan's mansion is very important. If the Han family wants to marry, why not choose Han Ning or Han Min?

Even if Han Ning might have a marriage contract, Han Min wouldn't make an appointment at a young age, right?
Why do you have to choose a young lady to be the concubine?

After all, Song Jiao is from the Song family, and some honors are destined only to the Song family.

According to the status of Prince Yan's Mansion in the Great Zhou... Could this Song Jiao be a puppet? !

Thinking of this, her eyes lit up.

Yes!Prince Yan's Mansion, which is in charge of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the world, can be said to have divided half of the Zhou Dynasty equally. Compared with the Han family, which is a civil servant, it has every reason to be feared by the royal family.

Even if Empress Dowager Zheng's mother and son were unable to compete with the Yan Palace, she would definitely try to contain it.

And if she instructs the Han family, or uses the Han family to contain the Yan Palace, it is very possible.

Thinking about it this way, the taste of Xiao Huai's marriage has changed...

If Song Jiao marries into Yan Wang's mansion, if things go well, the Han family will benefit a lot!If the end is not good, there will be no loss for the Han family.

Ms. Song was also being used!
Xiao Huai is such a meticulous person, he didn't even dispel his doubts about her until he was sure that the route she provided was correct, how could he fail to see through this point?
It is even more impossible to jump down knowing that it is a pit.

So she felt relieved.

At this time, Wang'er said again: "If this matter is very important to the girl, there is still news for such a small one."

"What's the matter?" Shen Xi poured tea.

"It's been rumored in the streets and alleys that Prince Yan not only killed Datong general Chen Xiu and seven others a few days ago, but also killed several generals in a row when he went to Datong not long ago.

"Nowadays the teahouses and restaurants are talking about the fact that Prince Yan's Mansion has reached the top of its power, and its merits are high. I think the Palace has received a lot of rumors recently."

It is not surprising to Shen Xi that the power of King Yan's Mansion has reached the top.

Isn't this obvious?

Wang Fa was represented on the execution ground, which courtier who followed the rules would ride a horse like Xiao Huai and kill a criminal before the time came?
However, Li Ding decreed that the feudal prince's mansion should be pardoned and built in the capital at the beginning, so it is ridiculous to talk about using power to reach the top now.

It was the same in all dynasties and generations after they arrived in Dingguo. Most of the less advanced civil servants were full of tricks, clinging to each other with jealousy, and secretly targeting them at the same time.

I always want to use a pen to pull down the hero and general, and then add a mark to myself in the annals of history, so that my name will go down in history.

King Yan's Mansion has long regarded these excerpts as a joke, right?

It's just that Xiao Huai went to Datong to kill again——

In any case, Yan Wang and his son are ministers after all.

You may or may not be able to control what you do in the palace secretly, but on the bright side, if you give me face, I will give you face.

So the Ministry of Etiquette rushed to hand over the marriage proposal at this juncture, probably forcing Xiao Huai to give an explanation.

So in this way, it's really hard to say how he will choose!

King Yan must also be able to see things that he can see clearly, and King Yan knew that this book was a hole dug by the palace and the civil servants, but he still asked him to propose a marriage, which shows that he does not want them to tear his face apart for the time being.

What should Xiao Huai do when his father's order is hard to break?
After all, he has to get married, who is not married?Don't make trouble with yourself.

Shen Xi's brows that had just relaxed were frowned again.

Song Jiao practiced martial arts, even if she could become a female celebrity with her thick hands, she was not much better.Qiu Shi asked her for a sachet, presumably it was for her to decorate.

No, she has to go to the palace!
If Xiao Huai really likes Song Jiao, then that's all.

She would rather demolish ten temples than destroy one marriage, she would think of a way to attack Wen Chan later.

But if Xiao Huai really didn't intend to make this marriage, and he had no choice but to do something, then she would have to make a long-term plan!
The Han family benefited the most from this calculation.

Since Wen Chan has extremely high power in the Han family, she must have been involved in this matter. How could she let the old woman's wishful thinking come into play?
