Sheng Weiqiao, who returned to the prince's palace, indeed did not send anyone to confront Dong Liang.
Instead, he sat alone for a long time with complicated emotions, and finally decided not to go to the palace to find the queen for the time being.
If Empress Meng summons her, she will find a way to refuse... In short, she will not meet this good friend for the time being.
"If what dad said is true and Qinglang is just using me, then of course I can't come to my door again." Sheng Weiqiao thought to himself, "If what dad said is false, the purpose is to stop me from talking to Qinglang. If there is anything to do with it... Daddy has always obeyed me, and now there must be a reason for making such a request."
Just as Sheng Lanci confidently said, with the love of her beloved for more than ten years, he, as a biological father, plays a big role in her daughter's heart!
Although Sheng Weiqiao also valued Queen Meng very much, there was no way she could compare with Sheng Lanci.
Moreover, "I told Qinglang earlier about our stance. We said that each side has its own issue. Whoever wins in the future will be merciful to the other side, which will end the friendship between us."
Isn't this the moment that Queen Meng's suggestion is fulfilled
Thinking of this, although Sheng Weiqiao still felt a little inexplicably blocked in his heart, he was somewhat aroused by Sheng Lanci's suspicion. He was not sure whether the friend he cherished was sincerely dealing with him, or whether he wanted to repay his kindness and be lonely and helpless. Does Suke's appearance disguise a deep calculation
But after taking a breath, he continued to work.
These are extraordinary times, and she, the princess of the county, has no time to spare.
After just taking care of a few trivial matters, a report came to the door saying that Huan Yehe, the head of Jingshu County, had come to visit.
"Please come quickly!" Sheng Weiqiao raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "Please go to the small flower hall to serve tea. I will be there right away."
Although Huan Ye had said before they got together that he would formally come to express his thanks in two days when the county palace was less busy, but those people must have posted in advance and came with their families.
Now that she was the only one arriving in a hurry, Sheng Weiqiao couldn't help but wonder if she had found out some secrets and rushed over to report the news
She changed into the guest's dress and rushed to the flower hall in three steps at a time, only to see Huan Ye sitting with his arms folded. Not only did he look happy and content, but he also seemed to have dressed up carefully: there was a tasseled bun on his bun. Carved narcissus, bamboo leaves and peach peach baby basket, jasper coral hairpin, a pair of gourds inlaid with hollow money patterns, white jade and red gold earrings, thin application of makeup, carefully drawn water-curved eyebrows, rhombus lips lightly dabbed with vermilion lipstick, sideburns I also used rouge to draw a gorgeous red plum blossom.
She wore a lilac purple short jacket with narrow sleeves and plum blossoms. Perhaps it was because it was still cold at the moment. Although there was a charcoal fire burning in the flower hall, the short jacket was still covered with a goose yellow plain pattern with green edges.
On the chest is a pair of gold-coated jade fish-fold silk coral and gemstone pendant collars. The coral color is very bright, which forms a sharp contrast with the light-colored top;
A mutton-fat jade peacock-flavored belt inlaid with pearls was tied around her waist, and a yellow-green skirt was dragged down. The hem of the skirt was densely embroidered with seawater patterns using silver threads. The illusion of sparkling light was reflected with the movement, and she looked everywhere. It is unique and adds a sense of remoteness to Huan Yehe.
"...Have you encountered something good?" Sheng Weiqiao has never seen her dressed up so grandly, because although Huan Yehe is not a dull person, he is famous in Chang'an mainly because of his exquisite personality, talents and skills. , rather than beauty.
In the past, even at the royal banquet, the Jingshu County Master did not seem to be so serious.
Sheng Weiqiao guessed, "What good thing is it that makes you deal with it so glamorously? But I was stunned!"
Huan Yehe smiled when he heard this and said, "I hope it's a good thing, but whether it's a good thing or not depends on you."
"Oh?" Sheng Weiqiao was a little strange and thought to himself that you had never come over to make requests to me before. At that time, let alone dressing up, it was all very casual.
What's the point of spending so much time this time...
After questioning, he saw Huan Yehe hinting that he should dismiss his surroundings and speak alone, so he nodded in agreement.
"What's going on?" Seeing that all the servants had gone out, Sheng Weiqiao leaned towards her and asked with a smile.
"I heard two days ago that the day after you and Mi Zhen met Gongsun Xi, you took him to the Zhao Mansion to visit relatives?" Huan Yehe asked without answering, "You said you wanted Mrs. Qin to meet Xin Tian My grandson, but in fact, he went on a blind date, right? Miss Zhao San, right? "
Sheng Weiqiao said in surprise: "How did this news get out? I didn't even hear what the people below said!"
"This hasn't spread much outside, mainly because I guessed it myself." Huan Yehe said with a cunning look, "Mi Zhen's feelings for the Zhao family are not very deep, and you can't talk to the Zhao family either. How could you take Gongsun Xi to see Mrs. Qin the day after you are so close?"
"I guess it's probably because he recognized his sworn brother. He just wanted to take Gongsun Xi to the Zhao Mansion!"
"In this case, besides a blind date, what else can it be?"
Sheng Weiqiao said: "Okay, you guessed it right... But why do you care about this?"
Huan Yehe looked at her face carefully and asked: "Then has this matter come true? I guess it probably hasn't come true? After all, Gongsun Xi can just pay it back, he is a man after all. Miss Zhao San, she is really a bit older than young. It will be very embarrassing if we don’t leave the cabinet. If this thing comes to pass, it’s impossible for these two days to be peaceful, and we must be busy preparing for the wedding, right?”
"You are so smart, what did you figure out?" Sheng Weiqiao asked with a smile.
Huan Ye said together: "Well, if this thing doesn't work out, it's probably because Gongsun Xi didn't like Miss Zhao San?"
Sheng Weiqiao glanced at her sideways and said, "Why did you say that? After all, this is the matter, but Ah Xi took the initiative to go to the Zhao Mansion to see Miss Zhao San. It was not Miss Zhao San who asked Ah Xi to pick and choose... Why not Zhao San Does the young lady look down on Ah Xi?"
"Is there any need to guess?" Huan Yehe deduced from her expression that he had guessed correctly. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Miss Zhao San has never had a suitable candidate since she and Mi Zhen failed to make it. Their elders Madam, she looks kind, but she is actually most concerned about the current situation. She will never let her granddaughters ignore family status and only find a family that treats them well. So everyone can see the current situation. She can't let Miss Zhao San replace you, Mi Zhen is not close to Rong Qingzui, her direct brother, but Gongsun Xi is treated as a younger brother by him, he is really like a sibling!"
"Based on this, Mrs. Qin can like Gongsun Xi!"
"If this person is satisfied, half of the matter will be settled!"
"As for Miss Zhao San herself, it can be seen from her previous admiration for Mi Zhen that she prefers men with elegant and beautiful looks. Although Gongsun Xi's literary talent is far inferior to Mi Zhen, his appearance is not bad. Miss Zhao San also has this With her age, the possibility of continuing to be selective is not very high...Why should she refuse this marriage now?"
"For example, do you think it would be embarrassing to see me all the time after you married A Xi?" Sheng Weiqiao casually picked on her.
Huan Yehe said with a smile: "Miss Zhao San is not such a person. She would irrationally make fun of life-long events just because she is angry!"
Sheng Weiqiao looked at her, suddenly enlightened, clapped his hands and said: "Let me tell you, why are you dressing up like this today? You speculate that the marriage between Ah Xi and Miss Zhao San failed, and this is your plan... ?”
"I just came here to recommend myself!" Huan Yehe's cheeks turned crimson, but after a slight hesitation, he immediately nodded and frankly admitted his purpose of coming, "Gongsun Xi didn't like Miss Zhao San, but he doesn't know what I am? Although he Following Mi Zhen, the future will definitely be bright, but I am a descendant of the prime minister, the legitimate daughter of an earl, and I also have the title of county head, so I don’t expect to be too high on him, right?"
This matter was beyond Sheng Weiqiao's expectation. She thought about it for a while and then said, "I really didn't expect you to fall in love with Ah Xi... I'm a little bit at a loss now!"
Huan Yehe said: "Are you afraid that I have ulterior motives? What do you think about the relationship between my grandfather and Mi Zhen? If Mi Zhen wins, our whole family will have to enjoy the blessings. Why should I go against Mi Zhen? Especially Mi Zhen. He still has the upper hand now! Only a fool would trick him, right? Besides, you also know the situation in our Yongyi Bo Mansion! Can you threaten Mi Zhen?"
"That's not it." Sheng Weiqiao said, "You also said that Ah Xi has always been treated as a younger brother by Mi Zhen, so I helped with his marriage. It is impossible to say that it is all done by myself... I have to go with him. After discussing it secretly, I asked him what he wanted."
Huan Yehe said with a smile: "Then you can ask for me?"
"You've come here in person, can I ask for you?" Sheng Weiqiao pursed her lips and was a little curious, "By the way, when did you fall in love with Ah Xi? I didn't even notice!"
"Do you want to get married only if you like her?" After hearing this, Huan Yehe thought for a while and said, "I won't hide it from you. I have to say that I fell in love with Gongsun Xi at first sight, but I just kept it hidden in my heart and dared not say it openly... This Not at all!"
"In the final analysis, I just think that he has a good future, good looks, and temperament. As far as I know, there is nothing unacceptable. Then I think that his background, talent and appearance are worthy of him... I am not young either. Well, isn’t it, now that there is a chance that he and Miss Zhao San failed, why not?”
As he spoke, he glanced at Sheng Weiqiao with a smile, "Especially when I'm near the water, I'll get the moon first!"
"I will bring it to you, but I may not have done anything else!" Hearing this, Sheng Weiqiao spread his hands helplessly, "After all, it's Ah Xi who wants to marry you, not me."
Huan Yehe was not disappointed when he heard this, and said: "Don't worry, it won't be successful. After all, I didn't come here because I was worried about him. I won't seek a short-term life just because of this!"
Seeing her relaxed look, Sheng Weiqiao couldn't help but feel a bit dumbfounded: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell Ah Xi and Mi Zhen what's in your heart?"
"I just want you to tell them!" Who knew Huan Yehe looked at her in surprise, "Mi Zhen is a shrewd person, and Ah Xi is not a fool. I didn't pay attention to Ah Xi before, wouldn't they know? If I don’t say these truthful words, will they think that I admire Ah Xi?”
"Why don't you confess, maybe you can win their favor more?"
Sheng Weiqiao was speechless and said, "Okay, let's see what they mean."
... In the evening that day, when Rong Suihe returned to the backyard to settle down, Sheng Weiqiao told him what had happened, and finally asked: "What do you think?"
