Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 186
Guangcheng Hou Liangxiu is now serving as the former commander of the military camp.

In the front, back, left, and right, the chiefs of these five military battalions are all held by nobles, and in order to show the mighty grace of the emperor, under normal circumstances, as long as no crime is committed, this position is allowed to be hereditary.

Of course, there are not many nobles who have truly inherited military power in the past dynasties. At least in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, this power and status were all leveraged.

Marquis Guangcheng was also a general under the command of Li Ding in the past. Although he is now classified as under the command of the King of Yan, he still has a certain sense of direct lineage. He can eat well in the palace and the mansion of the King of Yan, so of course such a family is considered good.

Although the Han family still has a lot of interests in Song Jiao, in the end, the interests complement each other. She married well, and everyone looked honorable.

Mrs. Chen's Mrs. Feng is the daughter-in-law of a side branch of the Han family. She is dependent on the Han family and is now doing very well in the capital.

Mrs. Feng went to Guangchenghou's mansion and met Mrs. Guangchenghou.

"I heard that the crown prince is going to perform the weak crown ceremony?" She said with a smile after praising the tea in the Hou's mansion.

Mrs. Guangcheng Hou and Feng Shi are of course familiar, and she also laughed: "Isn't it? In the blink of an eye, he will become a big man. This is not the time to let him have a family."

"That's a good thing!" Feng Shi said, "The emperor is betrotting a young lady who has passed the school competition at the Dragon's Birthday Banquet these few days, and the prince may be in the emperor's heart."

As a woman, naturally there is no reason to drag the marriage when she comes to the door. She came today to find out the bottom of the Hou's mansion.

"If so, it would be an honor." Mrs. Guangchenghou smiled faintly, "Those Qianjin ladies are all good."

As a meritorious official, the Hou Mansion certainly wouldn't be overly excited by a mere gift of marriage.

But these words are not salty, it sounds like a bit perfunctory.

Sure enough, she soon lost control of her mood, and smiled at Feng Shi again: "If the emperor can bestow someone like the second girl of the Shen family, then I will be thankful."

Hearing Shen Xi, the smile on Feng's face froze slightly.

Before she could reply, Guangcheng Houfu had already started talking with a spring breeze on his face: "I never thought that Shen Shilang would raise such a good granddaughter!
"It's really embarrassing for him. His wife has passed away, and his second son and daughter-in-law have also died early. How did he teach a young lady to be so intelligent?
"Let's not talk about the sons and brothers, even my female relatives are very happy to see it!

"This girl is not only beautiful in appearance, but also beautiful without being frivolous, and she is full of demeanor in her gestures, and it makes people never think that she is so intelligent——

"I really haven't seen such a pleasing girl in many years."

As she spoke, she shook her head in admiration, choking Feng so much that she couldn't speak!
She came to find out for Song Jiao, but they praised Shen Xi from the beginning to the end. Song Jiao had lost such a big face under Shen Xi's hands that day, so how can I continue to say this?

"There are also a few girls in our house. It seems that we have to ask our master to learn from Shen Shilang some other day!"

Mrs. Guangchenghou finally laughed, still immersed in the impression of Shen Xi.

Feng forced a smile out of embarrassment: "That's really good." Then he said: "Since that's the case, why didn't Madam come to ask for marriage?"

"Why not?" Mrs. Guangcheng Hou said, "Didn't you hear that the eldest daughter of the Shen family is coming out of the cabinet soon, and I have been getting a beating in the past two days and I am going to come to the house to put on makeup!

"I heard that the eldest wife is the head of the Shen family now, so it's only serious to tell their eldest wife about this matter first. And don't be in a hurry, otherwise it will lose face."

Feng Shi seemed to have swallowed a fly, and he couldn't tell what it was like.

When she returned to Han Mansion, she went straight to An Rong Tang, found Wen Chan and told the story, Wen Chan's usually calm face was suddenly covered with frost.

Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty——no!Ever since she entered the Zhang family, she has never been ignored like this...

Everyone in the world now only knows her as Shen Xi?
When Han Dun proposed to marry her in, she didn't take her seriously, but she didn't expect her to be sought after to such an extent.

According to Mrs. Guangchenghou's tone, even if their family did not discuss marriage with the Shen family in the end, even if they think of Song Jiao, they must feel unsatisfactory in their hearts?

How could it be Song Jiao's face that was swept away? It was clearly the Han family's face that was swept away!

Of course she knew that Madam Guangchenghou didn't do it on purpose, but Shen Xi did it on purpose!

She put the fan on the table and said in a rambling voice, "What about the rest?"

Feng quickly turned around and ran to other houses.

But after rounding the bush and making inquiries, they either brought the topic to the Shen family, or they didn't say a word about it.

There were also quite a few clever people who guessed her intention of coming, and turned around and said that they had no plans to discuss marriage at the moment.

Those that Wen Chan took a fancy to were all confident in the capital. They may not be more powerful than the Han family, but they don't necessarily have to accept it.What can the Feng family do with them?
Come back and talk to Wen Chan, but Wen Chan didn't say anything for a long time.

Why did people refuse to talk about Han's past when they saw it?That's because he guessed that he was proposing marriage to Song Jiao!

Han Min is still young, and Han Ning is not yet sixteen, not to mention that she is the daughter of the Han family, so of course she will not rush to discuss marriage when the emperor is giving her a big gift, and the only thing she wants to marry is to lose face in the school grounds Song Jiao!
But Song Jiao was clearly Shen Xi's defeated opponent, and it was already a great thing to think that the Han family could produce two such outstanding young ladies.

Now suddenly there is Shen Xi who is much more talented than Song Jiao, and his temperament is not so unattainable, so he will naturally flock to him.

And if other people marry Shen Xi away in a glorious way, but their own family marries the disgraceful Song Jiao, then wouldn't their family all have to feel weak in front of Shen Xi's mother-in-law's family in the future?

Who is willing to accept this anger?

It was not difficult for Wen Chan to guess what they were thinking, but she did not expect that she actually underestimated the influence of this competition.

Under the background of Shen Xi, Song Jiao, who used to be like a star, is now no one cares about her!
Even if she didn't have to rush to propose marriage to Song Jiao at this moment, this tone was really hard to swallow.

She said: "Then who has the Shen family picked now?"

"Probably not yet." Mi Xiang walked up, "The Shen family also values ​​this second young lady very much, presumably they will not choose a marriage in a hurry because of the sudden increase in the number of marriage proposals."

Wen Chan frowned and said nothing, and after a long time said: "That should be picked carefully."

Everyone stopped talking.

Only when she finished a cup of tea did Feng get up and say goodbye.

But Wen Chan said to Mi Xiang: "Go prepare the sedan chair, let's go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace."
