Red makeup against the world

Chapter 678
Jiang Chen lightly stroked the black jade wrench on his thumb, pondered for a while and said, "Okay! You did the right thing."

"Master, what is she planning to do?"

A smile appeared on Jiang Chen's handsome face, and he said, "Well, maybe I can guess a thing or two."

Glancing at Gepao's expectant expression, Jiang Chen slowly said: "She wants Wu Zhengxiang's life, this should be just a cover. The purpose is to make Wu Zhengxiang misjudge that he is the killer's target, and ignore other people. .”

"As for the real target?" Jiang Chen thought for a while, and said, "It should be someone Wu Zhengxiang cares about very much, and you can use this person to threaten him... Well, there is an eighty-to-ninety percent chance that it is Wu Zhengxiang. Newlywed wife. Rumor has it that he loves this Xu Yiren so much that he wants to marry him even in a coma."

He was thinking and analyzing.Jiang Chen already had a seven-orifice heart, otherwise it would not be his turn to preside over the overall situation.

"I originally thought that Wu Zhengxiang married a wife as a last resort and could not disobey the order of the empress dowager. Now it seems that Wang Miaoyan has grasped his true thoughts, so he came up with this trick and turned the tiger away from the mountain."

After thinking about this matter for a while, Jiang Chen said: "You pass down the order to closely monitor Xu Wanzhen's movements. If Wang Miaoyan really makes a move, let her succeed, and then we will take over this hostage."

The man in Gepao agreed and asked, "What should I do after the matter is completed?"

"Send her to our Zhuangzi in the suburbs of Beijing, and I will meet her myself."

"it is good!"

After the man in Gepao left, the room returned to deserted and dark.After being dormant for three full years, the rumors did not stop.That being the case, this time is probably an excellent opportunity to break the situation.

……

The next day, instead of stopping, the light rain tended to intensify.People walking on the streets all carried oil-paper umbrellas, and those working in the streets wore coir raincoats.

In Zhongguogong's mansion, the eunuch in charge sent by the clan's mansion came to announce the decree.

Mrs. Lu received the news early in the morning, and opened the middle door to welcome her, and set up an incense table in the courtyard.

Wu Lie led the Chen family, Lu family, Wu Zhengxiang, and Xu Wanzhen to kneel down after the incense case to listen to the order. Wu Sheng was on duty in the palace and did not return to the mansion.

"By God, the emperor's edict said: Today there is a daughter of the Xu family named Wanzhen, who is the wife of Wu Zhengxiang, the second son of Duke Zhong.

This is the rightful wife of the second rank. It is no longer the Queen Mother Xiao's decree, but the imperial decree issued by Wu Zhengxiang after Emperor Qinglong approved it.

Everyone shouted long live three times, and gave thanks.

The two young eunuchs standing behind took a step forward, and what they held in their hands was the regulations that only the wife of the second rank Gaoming had.

Xu Wanzhen thanked her, and Sangzi and Caisi took the tray and stepped aside.

Wu Lie stepped forward, "I'm sorry to trouble you, father-in-law." He said without showing any trace and handed over a purse.

The eunuch in charge took it away, and he chuckled: "Master Guo is blessed, one family has three orders." The heirs of Duke Zhong's mansion are not prosperous, but they are all extraordinary.Chen's and Lu's are the wives of the first rank, and Xu Wan is really the second rank. All the female family members have their own orders, even in Beijing, it is extremely rare.

"Where I am blessed, it is the children who strive for themselves." Wu Lie stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I got angry two days ago and offended the crown prince very much, and I don't know how to end it."

How could the eunuch in charge take up such a matter, so he hid it to cover it up, and didn't talk about it when he opened it up.

After the guard of honor passing the decree left, Chen happily took Xu Wanzhen's hand and said, "Good daughter-in-law, you are also a second rank now, so you can't lose money in terms of food and clothing. How many first-class maids are there around you? If not enough, I will allocate Chunshan to you."

Xu Wan sincerely complained, you only have one Chunshan at your disposal, and it doesn't necessarily mean that she has one heart with you.Call her to me?What a joke.

On the face, he saluted respectfully: "It's the daughter-in-law's fault for mother to ask. Right now there are four first-class people in Zhiyuanju, which is enough. Two days ago, I bought some people to come in and trained them to be rough maids. "In order to silence her, Xu Wanzhen included Wen Mulan in the first class.

"Since my mother asked, I have something to ask my elder sister-in-law." Xu Wanzhen said: "Zhiyuanju's yard is too big, so we need more wives and maids. I am an exception. Is it because of these people that the monthly bills are taken from my own account?"

In other words, the extra hands are raised with her own dowry.

There are indeed a lot of people in Zhiyuanju, among other things, there are twelve female guards alone, not to mention the servants who just bought.

Mrs. Chen is about to put on a loving mother's face now, how could she say no.

"Brother Sheng, daughter-in-law, please find a time to register the people who live far away in our mansion's roster. Brother Xiang is also the blood of your husband, so how many people should be used in the courtyard where he lives? Can you let your daughter-in-law take care of you?" Mrs. Lu respectfully agreed.

Glancing at the expressionless Wu Zhengxiang, Chen smiled even more heartily, as if he really was a harmonious and beautiful family.

"With the dowry of the daughter-in-law, wouldn't it make people laugh at our brother Xiang who is a soft eater?"

Wu Zhengxiang frowned, what was his aunt up to.One bite at a time, brother Xiang, which made him feel uncomfortable.Now he can finally understand Xu Wan's true feelings, obviously wishing to eat the other party, but even more affectionate than anyone else.

Seeing Wu Zhengxiang turn his face away, Wu Lie knew he was uncomfortable.With a light cough, he said, "It's fine if it's settled. Let's all go away."

Chen's eyebrows raised, and said: "Master, brother Xiang's daughter-in-law has to be appointed as the second rank, how can such a big happy event just break up like this?"

Everyone looked at her, waiting for her next words.

"Brother Sheng's daughter-in-law, you go and clean up a table and set up a table in the main hall at noon. Our house has not been this lively for a long time."

Lu Shi didn't know what she was thinking, but since her mother-in-law ordered it, it wasn't something out of the ordinary, she had to listen.

Wu Lie glanced at Chen Shi: "What exactly do you want to do?"

Chen said: "Congratulations to Brother Xiang's daughter-in-law, isn't this a happy event? After all, it's been a long time since we had dinner together." His tone was extremely aggrieved.

In fact, if this matter were put in another mansion, Chen's style would not only be good, but she would be an extremely kind and good mother-in-law.

But in the current situation, no matter how you look at it, it looks weird.

Xu Wanzhen looked at it coldly, guessing that a family banquet was hosted by Mrs. Lu, and Mrs. Chen, who was guarded and unusable, couldn't play any tricks.Why not, let's see what this Mrs. Chen wants to do.

Thinking of this, he bowed his knees and said: "Father, mother. Since it's a family feast, why don't you bring the second sister back and be happy together?"
