Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Wen Wan asked Shang Tang to make his own choice and write a reply after he made his choice. After hearing this, Shang Tang knelt down to Wen Wan, "Sister, I beg you for the last time about the second room. Please give this opportunity to let the third brother go! Those  I can tolerate the rumors. Anyway, I am the heir of Wufang now, and those people can only make sarcastic comments at most. But if Shang Li is resigned this time, he will never be able to become an official again in his life.  Looking at him like this, he is probably depressed. He is not even 20 yet. How will he live his life in the future?  I beg you, can you give this opportunity to the third brother? I don¡¯t want the third brother¡¯s life to be ruined like this, sister, I beg you.¡±

    Shang Tang knelt in front of Wen Wan, crying very sadly.  Looking at my brother with a withered expression, he realized that after his father left, all the pressure in the family has been shouldered by his brother.  But now because of this incident, my brother will be ruined for the rest of his life.  He knew very well how much my brother loved and cherished that job.  I remember that after he came back from work on the first day, he talked to me for a long time, happily held his hand, offered incense to his mother, and said that he would do well in the future and bring honor to her.  That was the first time he saw his brother smiling happily after his father left.  But now all this will be destroyed.

    Wen Wan was dumbfounded by what he did.  Someone help him up quickly.  She probably knew about Shang Tu in Ping Mansion.  There is no greater sorrow than death. Having such a father is the sorrow of all children.  But seeing Shang Tang working for his brother, he would rather suffer the rumors and want to give his brother a good future, which made him feel happy.  This proves that Shang Tang is sensible.  Take responsibility.  A responsible person will at least not be ungrateful to her in the future.  Wen Wan has never had high demands on him.

    Since he can do this, it will naturally be fulfilled for him.  I immediately wrote a letter to my uncle and sent it over, explaining everything clearly.  He also told his reasons.  If Shangtang can really withstand those rumors, it will be helpful to his future career.

    My uncle quickly replied, writing, "Sincerity is the best thing to do if you have a pure heart."  He agreed to give Shang Yan the opportunity to serve as magistrate of another county.  He made the decision and chose Guizhou as the place where Shang Mu would be installed.  In Guizhou, there is a county magistrate who will take office in ten months.  It was just after Rexiao that he could take office. Guizhou was far away from the capital, and it was remote and not prosperous. As long as he kept a low profile on weekdays, he would do it.  The news should not be passed on.  Moreover, Su Xiang also mentioned in his letter that he also had a student who served as the chief envoy there.  When the time comes, he will write a letter and give some care to his students about the Ping Shang figurines.  If anything happens, someone will take care of it.  Let Wen Wan take this time to find him an experienced adviser on his side.  I will also give Wenwan some attention.

    When Wen Wan got the news, she felt very strange.  It really always feels weird.  It is said that it is enough to be given an official position, so why bother to work his students to take care of the figurines.  Later, he put the matter aside, and he had nothing for the old man to plot against.  It's probably out of compassion.

    However, Wen Wan was not naive to think that an old fox like her uncle would suddenly be so interested in Ping Shang Tang.  But after thinking about it for a long time, I didn't find that Pingshangtang could make my uncle fancy him.  Thinking about it again, they had nothing for him to plot against.  I had to press down and not mention it again.

    Shang Tang didn¡¯t believe it when he heard the news.  Shang Tu was only an eighth-grade official before. If he could get the official position of county magistrate, he would be promoted to two levels in a row.  Wen Wan looked at him in disbelief.  Reluctantly, I took the letter and showed it to him.

    "Sister, can I go and report the news to Third Brother now? Let him know about this earlier and make him happier." Shang Tang said cautiously.  Wen Wan smiled and nodded.  Shang You hurriedly ran out.  He called for the carriage as he ran.

    ¡°Shang Tang, are you telling the truth?¡± Shang Qi didn¡¯t believe it.  After reading Su Xiang's autographed letter, I still didn't believe it.  In this way, I don't have to wait to die of old age.  No need to sit here and wait for the day you die.

    Shang Tang took Shang Li¡¯s hand and said, ¡°It¡¯s true, she is the gentle sister I begged for.¡±

    When Shang Li heard this, his expression immediately changed, "No, this is the position Wen Wan has created for you. If I go to you, what can you do? I can't harm you, how can I harm you for myself! No, absolutely  no."

    "Brother, follow the normal procedure. I should have an official position from the seventh rank. Don't worry, I will only receive some sarcastic comments, but nothing else will hurt. I am the son of the princess now, and my father is Ping Xiangxi, not Ping Xiangdong.  , I'll be fine. Brother, this is your only chance, you must cherish it." He held Shang You's hand and said forcefully.

    "Brother, you have grown up, you have finally grown up." This is the happiest thing for Shang Yan in the past month.  Holding Shangtang in his arms, his younger brother has grown up and can share the burden with him.  Shangtang told him that he must keep it secret. After all, he was in such a sensitive period now, and they were all in love with each other.?.  Don't tell others to go.

    In the end, Shang Tu could not hold back and told his wife.  At first, Mrs. Xu thought that Shang Yan was tricking him, but she realized it was true when she saw her husband's face was filled with joy and no longer as decadent as before.  When I heard that it was a letter written by Su Xiang, I finally let go after being worried for more than half a month.

    Then, I hugged my husband and cried bitterly.  She was also frightened during this period. One moment she blamed herself for her bad fate; the other moment she hated her father-in-law; the next moment she was bored when she saw her husband; the next moment she felt that her future was hopeless and her children were involved. What would happen to his children in the future?  manage.  Pregnant women like to think wildly.  The tires are always unstable.

    Shang You told her just to reassure her, and he warned and warned her not to tell anyone else.  Otherwise, if word spreads, this matter may be messed up by others.

    "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret." Mr. Xu is not a fool. This is his husband's lifelong future, his lifelong support, and the hope of his children.

    Sons must serve three years and 27 months of mourning, and grandchildren can serve as errands as long as they serve six months.  Just wear plain clothes and avoid taboo things.

    After things here were settled, Wenwan returned to Bajing Hutong. Although she said she had to observe filial piety, she finally became clean.  Although the Taira family is so noisy.  But Wen Wan felt that this matter had little impact on her.  Although she also had a common surname.  But she is more focused on being a royal person.  Therefore, it does not hinder Wen Wan's mood at all. When the mood is good and the time is available, you can gossip.

    The new No. 1 scholar is called Mao Xinrun. He is 17 years old this year. He is the eldest son of Mao Shunou, the governor of Shandong. His aunt is the imperial concubine De Fei, and he is very talented.  The article was written in a splendid and elegant way, and he was the leader of the high school; the second place on the list was Shen Hu, a well-educated scholar from Jiangnan; and the man who became the most beautiful girl was Su Yang, 16 years old this year, the grandson of Su Xiang.  Gentle cousin, Su Yang.

    Generally speaking, after the test comes out, it is the first stage of marriage.  Because officials will attract newcomers.  Add strength to yourself.  Therefore, new Jinshi scholars are generally popular candidates, and they are also the top candidates for noble ladies in the capital.

    But Wen Wan also got good news, saying that it was Su Yang who she kissed.  Said to be the daughter of the Hai family and Ru Yu's biological sister.  Such as eyebrows.

    Wen Wan also got the news immediately. Jiang Yuxiu was married to a second-level Jinshi, surnamed Yu. He was the son of his father's former classmate and friend, and now he was working in another province.

    Wen Wan felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this.  It's not that she blames anything, it's just that before this kind of thing, both families had a default attitude, saying they would just wait for the test results to come out.  If you hit.  It's a double happiness.  If he misses, he can let Shang Tang relieve his depressed mood.

    After something like this happened, there is nothing wrong with you finding a new marriage now.  Wenwan will not blame.  But you should at least tell me.  This was so quiet, when such a big thing happened to their family.  Just finalize the matter.  It seems that he is afraid of Wen Wan's entanglement.

    Wen Wan felt very unhappy. Really, she was very unhappy with the Jiang family's attitude.

    What do you think their family is, not to mention that Shangtang is also a Jinshi now.  Even if Shang Tang didn't win the Jinshi, Shang Tang's current identity is that he is the son in her mother's name, so he is also a relative of the emperor.  Once you have the status of being a civil servant, it is extremely easy to donate to an official position.  With connections and money, Shangtang is afraid that his future will not be good.  It would not be a big problem for Wen Wan to find a woman of good status for Shang Tang.  I just think it would be better for everyone to get along with someone we know well.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????? out of discomfort, this kind of thing, it is your will.  But Wen Wan's impression of the Jiang family was greatly reduced.  You want to seek happiness for your daughter, and Wen Wan will not stop you.  But doing so is too dishonest and irresponsible.  If there is a crisis, such a family will be the first to abandon you.  Maybe it will even add insult to injury.

    "Princess, Miss Hua is here." Wen Wan smiled knowingly after hearing this.  She had thought from the beginning that if you really get along with someone with Mei'er's personality, she would be extremely kind to you.  No matter what the environment is, I will treat you well and will not do anything to betray or abandon you.  Time proved that she was not wrong in her bet.

    "Look, why have you lost so much weight? It's true for you, there is no one in the Duke's Mansion. You, a nine-year-old child, are required to handle such a big thing. In order to get someone's filial piety and competence, you will give up your life.  "Mei'er said feeling distressed and complaining as she saw Wen Wan lose a lot of weight.

    Wen Wan looked at Mei'er wearing plain clothes without any jewelry. She looked simple and decent. Wen Wan secretly admired her in her heart. Although Mei'er complained about her, she felt a little more grateful:  "The princess told you not to worry. She didn't do much. It was just a matter of words. Thank you for coming to see her."

    "The Jiang family did something wrong about Yuxiu. A few days ago, she also told meComplaining, saying that she didn't know anything about it, and that by the time most of the things she knew were settled, she couldn't change them.  But because of this, she also lost her temper with his parents.  She was still worried that you would blame her, and I said you would not be so stingy.  Don't take this matter to your heart. They say marriage is destined by nature and cannot be forced.  It's also the two of them who don't have this fate.  "Meier said in a roundabout way.

    She made a few gentle strokes: "The princess said that the parents make the final decision on all major matters of marriage. Yuxiu cannot make the decision on her own, so there is nothing to blame. Let's not talk about this anymore. You look like a healthy man.  Are you exercising every day?¡±

    "Yeah, now I get up every morning and walk around the inner courtyard of my house twice. I eat more than before, and my health is much better than before. My mother said it's all thanks to you. Every day  They praise you so much that you are even more jealous than my own daughter. By the way, I have been helping my mother with the housekeeping recently," Meier said with a smile.

    After Wen Wan heard this, she was really happy for Meier.

    Within two days, Zhenzhen, Yiyi, Yutong, and Ruyu all came to comfort Yili.  Because it's about filial piety.  Several people had a conversation with her and then went back.  Although Jingqiu didn't come, he sent him a set of plain screens sewn by himself.  Yuxiu asked Zhenzhen to write an apology letter to Wen Wan, saying that she was very sorry for Wen Wan and so on.  Wen Wan wrote back that it was none of her business.  Tell her not to feel guilty, she doesn't blame her at all.

    Wenwan is very grateful for the concern of several sisters for her.

    At this time, the most sensational news was naturally that the current number one scholar proposed marriage to the Su family.  Mao's mother came to the house and proposed to Mrs. Su.  Mrs. Su thought that she would marry a top scholar.  It's also a very honorable thing, and with the talent of the new top scholar, it's natural that he is absolutely convinced.  However, this matter had to be reported to the head of the family, so he just spoke in a vague tone.  He said he would wait until his family came back to discuss it before giving an answer.  But what she didn't expect was that the news spread throughout the capital the next day.

    Many people thought this was a foregone conclusion, but it was a pity that the news came out on the same day.  Su Xiang did not agree with the marriage and flatly refused, showing no room for maneuver.  The whole capital was in an uproar.

    "Dad, Mr. Mao is a very talented man. He is also the number one scholar in the dynasty. He must be talented and good-looking. He must have a good family background. What do you dislike about him?" Mrs. Su asked anxiously to Prime Minister Su.

    "You haven't even asked me about this, how can you make such a random promise?" Su Xiang said unhappily.  Mrs. Su lowered her head and looked at her husband, asking for help.

    "Dad, are you afraid that being tainted by Concubine De will make people mistakenly think that you are on De Concubine's side? However, although Concubine De has made some small moves, they have not caused any real harm. Although Concubine De has been favored by the emperor, she has always behaved herself.  "The Sixteenth Prince has always been honest." Su Xian obviously anticipated Su Xiang's concerns.  After hearing this, Mrs. Su immediately stopped talking and stood aside respectfully.  This may be a matter of family survival.  It is much more important than a good relationship.

    "How can a woman who has been favored by the emperor for decades be a simple person? As for whether she has the right to take the throne or not, it has nothing to do with me. Even if they want to fight, they don't have that much courage. A small marriage can do it.  Label me as them. That¡¯s not the reason why I don¡¯t agree.¡± Su Xiang said calmly.

    "Dad, what did you say?" Su Xian naturally thought of this. If he marries a daughter, he will be part of their party. There are so many marriages in the capital that they have become a party.

    "I don't like Mao Xinrun, the new top pick in a new subject. The articles are first-class, but they are all flashy stuff. And he is not the top pick in the Ming Dynasty. The candidate who was originally recommended by Hai Lao is the second pick.  Shen Hu, a talented man from the south of the Yangtze River. But the emperor chose him as the number one scholar. I won't guess what happened. However, I will never allow my granddaughter to marry someone who writes flashy things.  Being an official can easily lead to disaster and affect the family." Su Xiang said simply why he opposed it.

    "Besides, Zhen Zhen has a soft ear and a weak temperament, so she is not suitable for marrying into a too complicated family. Otherwise, she will be harmed." How could I bear the thought of such a granddaughter who looks so similar to her aunt?  Let her live a bad life.  The Mao family is also a family of several generations of officials. It is a large family, and the relationship between Mao Xinrun and Mao Xinrun is also complicated. There are legitimate sons, stepsons, and people living next to each other. It is a mess. After listening to it, you will know that it is a mess inside.

    Mrs. Su broke into a cold sweat after hearing this.  She began to think that her father-in-law was not willing to enter into this marriage because he was worried about party disputes, and she felt that it was a pity in her heart.  Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a question of the character of the new top scholar.  And my daughter¡¯s temperament is indeed softer and gentler.  She herself often interacts with the noble ladies around her.  The experiences of the families of those criminal officials were extremely miserable. She shuddered when she thought about it.  Secretly blaming myself for having a plan this time.  She didn't?Agree, since she is such a biological daughter, she naturally has to be careful, and even if she likes it, she won't rush into it.  She just said to wait two days before talking.  Under normal circumstances, you have to ask the father-in-law of the family if he is a husband.  If there is no definite information, the parties involved will generally not tell anyone about it.  But these people are so shameless and driven.

    The people of the Su family thought that this was the end of the matter, but who knew that the people of the Mao family would not give up.

    But not long after, there was a story about the number one scholar who bravely saved a beautiful woman.  This beauty, of course, refers to Su Zhenzhen.  Within a day, the news was spreading.  Su Xiang's face turned pale when he heard this. Su Xian's face was also ugly when he got the news.

    Mrs. Su got the news and went to ask her daughter.  To be honest, there was a gangster who blocked the road, and a young man scolded him.  As for who it was, she took a look in the carriage at the time and saw that he looked really talented, but she didn't know who it was. After she got home, she thought it was a trivial matter, so she didn't mention it.

    You should know if you ask the coachman or the mother who is traveling with you.  Zhenzhen didn't take it to heart, which reassured Mrs. Su. Zhenzhen looked at his mother's nervous look and asked strangely.

    "PuchMom, someone helped me. I took one look and secretly promised you that you think I'm a nympho!" Zhenzhen couldn't help laughing.  Mrs. Su asked strangely what nymphomaniac meant.

    "Wen Wan said that a nymphomaniac is one who falls in love with a good-looking man when she sees one, and secretly falls in love with him. It doesn't matter what the person's moral character, talent, temperament, or family background is. Wen Wan attributes this kind of woman to a nymphomaniac. I can  Not a nymphomaniac." This is a new term given by Wen Wan.  The girls like to say this word most now.

    "That kid always comes up with some weird words." Mrs. Su felt relieved when she saw that Zhenzhen didn't put her mind on it.  When I think about Wen Wan's words again, I can't help but laugh.  That kid is really a very thoughtful and intelligent person.  She actually saw things so clearly. It seemed like it was right to let Zhenzhen learn from her.  At least my daughter has really grown a lot.

    "Princess, a message has been sent to the Duke's Mansion. From now on, the seventh young master should be called the seventh master." After Wen Wan heard this, the seniority level increased as soon as the person passed by.  Also, the next generation will come up.

    Xia Tian told Wen Wan about the outside news.

    "These people are crazy to want to be the prime minister's grandson-in-law!" Wen Wan spat.  It's really shameless to do such damaging things.  But because Wenwan was observing filial piety, it was hard for her to go out and ask, or something like that.  Stay in your own house honestly and be a noble lady in ancient times.

    An unusual smell emerged in the capital, and even Wen Wan could smell it.  But thinking about it, no matter what happens, she will never be able to find her here. She is observing her filial piety at home now!  Also relieved.  I am just a little girl, so there is nothing for others to plot against me.

    But the story became more and more serious. It was said that the talented man and the beautiful woman were in love with each other, and the elders in the family supported each other.  Although he didn't mention his name, it was obvious that he was referring to Su Xiang.  Not long after, word came from the palace that Mrs. Xuansu, the concubine of De, entered the palace.

    Prime Minister¡¯s Mansion

    "How long did I think she could endure it? I didn't expect that she lost her temper so quickly." Su Xiang sneered disdainfully.

    "Dad, what should we do? If Concubine De comes to propose a marriage, the matter will become a certainty. If it is true that Mao Xinrun is not a good match as you said, then wouldn't it mean that Zhenzhen will be harmed for the rest of his life?" Su  When the madam got the news, she immediately lost her mind.  I deeply regretted that I had taken a fancy to the talent and appearance of the No. 1 Scholar, so I was confused and did not reject him outright.  But later, I clearly refused.  Why are you still clinging to me?

    "Wu Fang, you go to the palace tomorrow and tell Concubine De that we have already agreed to kiss you, but it was delayed due to some things. But I have already agreed." Su Xiangyun said calmly.

    "Dad, where can we find this candidate now? And at this time, in just one night, who would take the risk of offending the Mao family and offending Concubine De to come forward at this time." Su Xian was very worried.

    After a while, I saw the butler and took a letter. Su Xiang took it and opened it, showing a smile.  Then, when he gave it to his son, Su Xian was stunned.  After a long time, he finally called out in a low voice, "Dad."

    "Ah, I want to betroth Zhenzhen to him." Mrs. Su was stunned and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.  How is this possible?  How could the daughter she raised be given to the son of such a person?

    "It's better to be betrothed to him than to be betrothed to Mao Xinrun. Besides, Yang'er sometimes said good things about him in my ears before. He is a simple and affectionate person." Su Xian was actually reluctant in his heart, but compared to the general trend  , this reluctance is insignificant.  (To be continued)
