The princess's mansion is very busy for the seventh young master's wedding. As the head of a family, Wen Wan is light-hearted. Unfortunately, she received news from Jiangnan that Yan Qixuan's condition had improved. Wen Wan fell silent. Calculating the time, King Chun should have arrived in the south of the Yangtze River. It won't be long before Yan Qixuan returns to the capital.
Xia Yao couldn't understand the look on Wen Wan's face.
Wenwan stood in the yard, looking at the stars in the sky. Xia Yao has long discovered Wen Wan's characteristic. When Wen Wan is in a bad mood, she especially likes to look at the stars in the sky for half an hour.
Xia Yao knew that Wen Wan was actually very sad. So he comforted him by saying, "Princess, the prince is already well. You should be happy."
Wenwan looked up at the stars, relieved that her health was better. But when it comes to being happy, what does she have to be happy about? Even if he was close at hand, he couldn't tell him that he was Fu Xi. Because the emperor's grandfather did not allow the marriage, King Chun refused. She has to bear all this burden. When Yan Qixuan finds out about it in the future, he will still blame her. There were so many things weighing on her heart, but she didn't even have anyone to talk to.
She can resist all these, but she is very worried. Now Jiang Shouwang is dead. In Yan Qixuan's eyes, it was like she was dead. There is no such thing as keeping a promise. Can Yan Qixuan keep his promise?
Yan Qixuan is now fourteen years old. At the age of marriage. Will Yan Qixuan abide by an agreement with a 'dead man'? It's not that she doesn't trust Yan Qixuan, but that there is King Chun who is determined not to allow them to be together, and there is Princess Chun who has ulterior motives. This road is full of variables. Wen Wan really has no confidence.
If Yan Qixuan can't keep his promise. Marry someone else. She had no right to blame him. Although she was unable to tell the truth because of too many scruples and worries. But she was wrong to hide it. Therefore, even if Yan Qixuan did not keep Ruo's promise, she was not qualified to blame Yan Qixuan. The only thing to blame is God being so cruel to her.
If Yan Qixuan cannot keep her promise and marry Yan Qixuan, where will her future marriage be? Uncle Zheng's intention was that he could only choose among several cousins. If Uncle Zheng ascends the throne, his cousins ??will become princes. The prince will not marry. Who else could she marry. If you want to get married, do you really want to sit in that unspeakably expensive position?
If it comes to that, she would rather never marry. Learn from the teacher, be a famous person, and travel all over the country. See all the beautiful mountains and rivers. It is in line with the old monk's words that the marriage is not going well.
Wen Wan automatically ignored what Master Awakening said about destined marriage.
Xia Yao looked at Wen Wan and was in a daze again, and comforted her, "Princess, don't think too much, thinking too much will hurt your nerves. Doctor Wang always said that you just think too much, that's why your health is not good. Princess, things always happen." There will be a solution. Don¡¯t think about it, it¡¯s late at night.¡±
This matter was anxious.
The day of getting married is getting closer and closer, and the princess's mansion is starting to become lively. Prince Hao's Mansion, Prince Chun's Mansion, Prince Zhou's Mansion, Prince Zhao's Mansion, Prince Ning's Mansion, Prince Zheng's Mansion, Zhen Guo Gong's Mansion, Shenjian Hou's Mansion and other high-ranking noble families in the capital all sent congratulatory gifts.
Not to mention the gifts, the background of these gift-giving alone makes the onlookers speechless. The Duke's wife was secretly shocked. She didn't expect that Wen Wan's influence would be so great as the Duke had expected.
The fourth wife thought about what her husband said and could only lament that she had not been in the capital before. Failed to establish a good relationship with Wen Wan. so. He also tried his best to arrange Shangtang's marriage.
The emperor laughed when he saw Wen Wan looking troubled. I don¡¯t know when this temper will change. But this matter. The emperor is in favor of Wen Wan's actions. When Ping Shang Tang gets married, he should not intervene gently. Giving money is the best thing you can do. What to do with those things. Tiring yourself in vain.
After Wen Wan finished massaging the emperor, the emperor held Wen Wan's hand and said, "Wen Wan has grown so big in a short time. In three or four years, she will get married. At that time, grandpa will hold a grand wedding for you. A wedding like no other.¡±
"Wenwan said like a mosquito, she is still young and will talk about it in a few years."
Seeing Wen Wan¡¯s shy appearance, the emperor patted Wen Wan on the shoulder. Hehehe laughed. It is indeed too early to say this. It'll be a few years later. When the time comes, he must carefully choose a husband for Wen Wan. Let her marry gracefully.
Shangqi knew that his younger brother was getting married, so he calculated the time and rushed back. This is the only time in my brother's life. Although it took more than two months to travel back and forth, it was a bit hard. But it's still worth it.
Shangqi has done quite well in his two years in office. He received several compliments from his superiors and received excellent marks in assessments. At first he asked for leave saying it was for his younger brother's marriage, but Shang Feng was very unhappy. But when he heard that his brother was marrying the prime minister's direct granddaughter, he immediately gave him permission to leave. He worked hard and changed waterways before arriving before the wedding.
arriveThe princess's mansion. Shang Tu watched Zhang wait for the wedding ceremony at the princess's mansion, and everyone in the mansion was also preparing for the wedding. Very lively. Shang You wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. It was really right for me to let my brother adopt me. Where could such a decent wedding come from at home? When I got married, even with the help of the eldest lady, it was extremely shabby. Everyone in the Xu family secretly mocked themselves for getting a big deal. He himself was shorter than his wife. Now the younger brother's future and marriage will be good.
The wedding is approaching, and guests come to the door. They are gentle and have trouble speaking, so they can only rely on a few people in the big room.
King Zheng did not come back from Jiangnan, so he sent a letter asking the princess and Ruyu to come over to help Wenwan, although there was still a distance between Wenwan and Wenwan. But she had already changed her foreign policy and thanked Princess Zheng and Ru Yu with a smile.
Seeing the gentle smile on her face made Ruyu feel cold in her heart. Wen Wan really changed this time, and she didn't even recognize him. What happened in Prince Zheng's palace this time actually made Wen Wan's temperament unpredictable. She didn't even know how to deal with it.
Things in Shangtang are proceeding slowly.
Wenwan got some news, news that made her very uncomfortable. The Jiang family intended to betroth the eldest daughter of the eldest family, the niece of Princess Chun, to Yan Qixuan.
Wen Wan knew that this should be Princess Chun¡¯s first step. From now on, there are still many means waiting for Yan Qixuan. But she couldn't say anything or do anything.
Wen Wan already understands that in this dynasty, adultery and having children have no status. Lower than a concubine. At least the concubine is on the family tree. But having an adulterous child is not even qualified to be included in the family tree. Not to mention inheritance rights.
Although Wen Wan doesn¡¯t understand why King Chun, as a clan leader, deliberately committed such a big mistake. Give people a handle. But from Yan Qixuan's perspective, the less people know about it, the better. Because once this matter is leaked, Yan Qixuan's throne will definitely be taken away. Even lives are at risk. And this is Princess Chun¡¯s trump card
Wen Wan is now also a mud bodhisattva who cannot protect herself when crossing the river. She has no ability to fight against Princess Chun. So now, she can't do anything. I can only watch quietly. Wenwan only prayed and hoped in her heart. Yan Qixuan can hold on until she has the ability.
On the fourth day of June, the eldest lady came over with her two daughters-in-law and settled in Qingyaju to help with the cooking. The fourth lady also moved in.
There are Xia Tian, ??Xia Run and others taking care of the outer courtyard. Inside is the ancient nun Aunt Chen. And with the eldest lady and the fourth lady taking care of her, there was nothing wrong with Wen Wan.
On this day, there was a rush. The wedding tent in the front yard has been set up. The kitchen went into the shed to try out the stove, and everything was ready.
Many relatives from outside the family began to come to congratulate me.
This time, the gentle and cheap father Ping Xiangxi was doing well and took five days off. Stayed here in advance to help greet guests. From beginning to end, it was all smiles.
Wenwan looked at his smiling face. It feels particularly dazzling. Wen Wan was puzzled. She treated her adopted nephew as her own son, and she also cared about her nieces. Why do you treat this biological daughter like a lifelong enemy?
Wen Wan was confused for the first time, could there really be a crime?
Shang Qi has always come to help with Shang Tang¡¯s marriage, and he hasn¡¯t missed a day. And we do whatever we ask without any complaints. Shang Qi made a good impression on Wen Wanluo. Wen Wan knew that Shang Qi often went to Zhuangzi to see her during her illness. Even though I didn¡¯t see anyone, my sincere attitude was there. Still left a good impression on Wen Wan.
Honestly speaking, Wen Wan feels that Shang Qi is much better than Shang Tang. Shang Qi is not influenced by outsiders and has a good mind. I also have a good heart for dealing with people. There are very few people who can do this. Wen Wan is very sorry. If Shang Qi didn't have a mother who had a grudge against her, Wen Wan would treat him as her own brother. Unfortunately, all this can only be what-if.
The betrothal gift given by the An family to Shangtang was very generous, comparable to the marriage of the heir apparent of the Meigong family. When Mrs. An got the news, the handkerchief in her hand was crushed into pieces. These originally belonged to her son. This damn girl would rather take advantage of an outsider than give her son. It's not that she hasn't made up her mind, but Wen Wan is very guarded against the people of the Heng family. Not only herself, but also the people around Shang Tang are all bought into it. She couldn't get the exact information without spending any money. After all this fuss, I put a lot of effort into it before, but didn't get any useful information.
She thought she could participate in this wedding by virtue of her status. Who knew that Wen Wan ignored her at all. When it came to purchasing the betrothal gift, she didn't even say hello to her. When she went to Su's house to discuss the marriage, she had nothing to do. Treat her like nothing.
An and Ping Xiangxi cried and complained several times. Ping Xiangxi said very directly, you wantIf you dare to say it, I will divorce you. It doesn't matter if you go and embarrass me, don't embarrass me. Anshi had no choice but to go to the eldest lady to explain the situation.
The eldest lady told her directly that Shang Tang himself came to invite her. She also said that during the purchase process, she only helped and gave advice, and people from the two palaces helped with the purchase and other matters. And all of this means gentleness.
An's fear, hatred and resentment towards Wen Wan. She didn't dare to mess with Wen Wan, but although Ping Shang Tang was adopted, she was still a mother in name only. But there was no one to help with the matter. Even the etiquette and laws were ignored. There is no need to talk about filial piety. She can't help being gentle, and she can't help being courteous. She was going to have Shang Tang impeached for a grave unfilial crime. Let his career be ruined for the rest of his life.
Wen Wan soon realized that An was jumping up and down and smiled slightly. If you seek abuse yourself, don't blame her for being rude.
Wen Wan was accompanying the emperor in Yanghe Hall when she heard a message coming from outside: "Your Majesty, Marquis Anle is asking to see you!"
Wen Wan smiled after hearing this. There was really no need to look for it, it was delivered to her door by herself. Wen Wan said something to Xia Yao. Xia Yao said something to a young eunuch next to her.
Wen Wan continued to massage the emperor as if nothing had happened.
Marquis Anle asked to see him this time to ask for the title of Crown Prince. Anlehou wanted to make his third son the crown prince. After so many years of hesitation, Anlehou finally made a decision.
The emperor left a message but did not give an accurate answer.
After Anlehou went out. Wenwan told the emperor that she was going out. The emperor smiled and waved his hand, "Go, don't stay bored in the room all the time." Ever since Wen Wan came back, she didn't have the vitality that a child should have. Not even as active as before during my year abroad. The emperor was very puzzled. He couldn't figure out the child's temperament.
"Please stay, Marquis An. The princess has something to ask the Marquis for advice." After receiving the order, the young eunuch stopped An Lehou who was about to leave.
"The princess is looking for the old minister to ask me if I have anything to say." Anlehou looked very respectful. With what happened before, she has no confidence at all in front of Wen Wan.
Wen Wan smiled sweetly, "Master Anle. The princess said that An is going to find someone to impeach our seventh young master for his disobedience and unfilial piety. I wonder if Lord Anle knows about this."
Anlehou was shocked, "What do you think the princess said?"
Wen Wan's smile became sweeter. "Anshi said that she is the mother of the seventh young master. She was very annoyed that she was not even informed about the seventh young master's marriage. So she planned to ask someone to impeach the seventh young master for his unfilial piety. Mr. Anle, Anshi said that she She is the mother of our seventh young master. The princess asks you, does she also want to call you grandpa? "
Anlehou is also a man who has experienced things and has extraordinary determination, but he was ignored by Wen Wan's seemingly casual words. Three souls were so frightened that two souls were lost. In the world, who can be called the grandfather of Princess Wenwan, except the one in the Yanghe Hall, who dares to do so. Princess Wenwan is trying to trick him to death!
Anlehou wiped away the sweat and said, "Princess, I have betrayed the old minister. Princess, don't worry, the old minister will definitely give the princess a satisfactory answer." Such a rebellious woman. Clean up early except early.
Xia Yao saw that Anlehou had murderous intentions, "Anlehou can just give him a little punishment, but don't have any thoughts that you shouldn't have. It is Anlehou's crime to implicate our princess."
Anlehou said hurriedly and cautiously, "I don't dare, the princess, don't worry. The veteran will handle it properly. It will have nothing to do with the princess."
On the way home, Anlehou really regretted it. If I had known, I would have severed ties with this rebellious girl as soon as something happened. How dare you accuse Shang Tang of being unfilial. Shang Tang is now the son of the princess and the nominal grandson of the emperor. Instead of being filial to the princess, give her a stepmother to be filial. When the time comes, there will really be impeachment by those who are short-sighted and have unclear minds. He also had to walk around with endless food.
Marquis Anle returned to the Marquis Mansion and sent someone to bring An back. First, the mother-in-law gave her a few big slaps. He was scolded severely. Warn her not to act like a monster again. Just give her a white water chestnut and kill it on your own.
Marquis Anle wanted to sever the father-daughter relationship with Anshi. But I'm afraid An's has gone too far. As Wen Wan said before, he was afraid that if something happened, he would be found again. He couldn't control it even if he wanted to. We have to be shocked first and then talk about the rest.
But just in case, Anlehou sent her two shrewd women to ask them to pay attention. If there is any trouble, tell him.
An¡¯s ability to maintain her current status in her husband¡¯s family is because her natal family has a strong background. If he really made his father angry, he would not force her to commit suicide, but severing the relationship would definitely happen. She didn't have the guts to try it, so she had to be honest.
On June 5th, there were Shanghong, Shangqi, Shangwei, Haiyan and several other members of the family. Those with titles and errands gathered together eight people. Riding a big horse and carrying many followers, he went to Su's house to arrange makeup.
The eldest lady asked the two daughters-in-law toCheck out the Lotus Root Champs. The walls of the new house are painted white and the floor is cleaned, and the makeup can be installed as soon as the dowry arrives.
Wen Wan has already written a letter, telling Zhenzhen the general scenery and asking Zhenzhen to choose a name. I really wrote three words "Lotus Lotus".
Wen Wan looked at it and replied with three words, "Lotus Champs". There was a nice word back.
After Haishi found out, he said to Mrs. Su, "Mom, you should be relieved now. The princess asked my sister to choose the name of the courtyard where my sister-in-law will live. What else do you have to worry about?" Although it is a trivial matter. , but it can be reflected that Wenwan has enough respect for Zhenzhen. From now on, Wen Wan will never interfere in Zhenzhen¡¯s internal affairs.
Mrs. Su naturally knew what her daughter-in-law meant, and her worries finally settled. Although Zhenzhen has a good relationship with Wenwan. But with such a shrewd and powerful sister-in-law, it would be a headache if she had to interfere in the affairs of Zhenzhen's yard.
Wenwan¡¯s princess mansion, the courtyard in the middle is called Hengfang Pavilion, the courtyard on the right is called Lotus Champs, and the courtyard on the left is Wenwan. Looking at the elegant decoration there, she is too lazy to think of a name. I called Qingyaju directly, wrote the words myself, asked someone to carve a plaque, and hung it up.
From the Su family to the gentle Princess¡¯s Mansion, there were servants from the Princess¡¯s Mansion wearing new clothes and new hats coming and going to report news. Not long after the dowry was sent from the Su Mansion, news came back from here. Shangtang took his cousins, cousins, classmates and friends, and led the drummers to welcome the makeup outside.
Su Mansion¡¯s dowry came towards the Princess Mansion in great force, and it took a long time before it was finished.
The first thing to carry was the dowry book. The bright red silk tie is very festive. Then there are twelve new tiles, symbolizing twelve rooms; twelve adobe blocks. Symbolizes twelve hectares of land. Wrapped with six pieces of colored paper, it symbolizes the six industrial shops under his name.
?Then comes the furniture. Important furniture such as beds, mirrors, tables, cabinets, and boxes are all made of mahogany. Looking at the embroidery, the embroidery work is very exquisite and they are all treasures. Then there are quilts, pillows, curtains, clothes for all seasons, and ruler clothing materials, etc. Then there are the hanging furnishings, which are all paintings, calligraphy and antiques. Choose festive and auspicious hanging displays. After the big items came the trivial items. The big red box contained jewelry, rouge, gouache and other items.
In the end, there were four maids and two nuns. Accompanying the room are ten families.
A total of one hundred and twenty-eight dowries were packed into the Lotus Champs, which was no less impressive than Ruyu and Meier before.
??The place was full of servants and boys. The courtyard is filled to the brim. Wen Wan looked at this lively scene and thanked God for such good weather. If it rains. Don't know what the scene is like.
It¡¯s lively outside, gentle and peaceful, leisurely practicing calligraphy in the study. Not to mention others, even Xia Yao felt Wen Wan was too indifferent.
Knowing what Xia Yao said, Wen Wan asked in surprise, "It's the seventh young master who is getting married. He is the one who should be excited. What should I be excited about?" Xia Yao was once again speechless in front of Wen Wan.
Originally, everyone thought that Princess Wenwan would mobilize so many people to make the wedding so lively. Firstly, it shows the background of the princess's palace, and secondly, it shows that she is favored by the emperor. Unexpectedly, the princess did not think about this at all.
The people in the front yard were extremely busy, but Wen Wan didn't show up. But for a while. Xia Tian trotted in anxiously and reported to Wen Wan, "Princess, the reward is not enough."
Wen Wan heard this. She wanted to roll her eyes, but she had already prepared a large box of reward money. These are all prepared 10% more than the previously scheduled number. It'll be gone now. Someone must have taken this opportunity to trick the autumn wind. It was really embarrassing. Don't let this little money go.
Now is not the time to pursue this matter. We cannot ruin the atmosphere of the wedding banquet. Wenwan asked someone to bring out a small box of silver envelopes and some money strings from the house.
Xia Tian looked at the small box of reward money that Wen Wan had prepared a long time ago, and secretly let out a sigh of relief. It was only when he got to the middle that he discovered that among the people receiving the rewards, there were many servants brought by the Third Master, the Fifth Master, and the family. It's all mixed up.
Xia Tian stopped drinking when he found out, but the reward was not enough. Only then did Anhuo Liao find Wen Wan. Fortunately, she was her master and was prepared for anything. Xia Tian knew this very well, so he dared to ask. Otherwise, even if he had ten courages, he would not dare to trouble the princess.
"One hundred and twenty-eight dowries are packed to the brim. And the items are all of the best quality. I envy the boy Shangtang for having such good luck. I want to have such a person in the second room. Dad, I don¡¯t know if he can get a wife. If he hadn¡¯t been chosen by the princess, he would not be as prosperous as he is now. Not only did he marry the prime minister¡¯s only granddaughter, but he also got such a huge sum of money. Said sourly.
"Yes, the furniture is all made of fine pear wood. Look at the dowry and antiques. They are all top-notch things. Jewelry, clothesThe material made my eyes go straight. Top-notch respectability. These dowries cost less than 10,000 taels of silver, how can they be purchased? "A daughter-in-law envied.
"Ahem, who's going to save someone's life!" A daughter-in-law said with a mix of jealousy and envy.
"Yes, from Takako's family. If I had adopted your family's Shangfeng, it wouldn't be your family's that is the most prosperous now. Such a dowry is estimated to be worth a million taels of silver, and it leaks between your fingers. It's enough for your family to live well, and you don't have to work hard all year round. I heard that your new brother and sister are very tight on money, so they only gave you and your wife twenty taels of silver. You won¡¯t get any benefit at all.¡± A daughter-in-law joked to the daughter-in-law next to her with glaring eyes.
"Twenty taels of silver, for ordinary people, it only takes a little saving." It is enough to cover the expenses of a family for a year. Not too little. (To be continued)
