Wei Hanzhou had been working in the Hanlin Academy today, and when the hour came, thinking of what happened last night, he deliberately returned to the house on time.
However, after he returned to the mansion, he heard Mrs. Chen say that Liu Tangxi went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet.
At that moment, Wei Hanzhou had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurriedly asked Mrs. Chen if Liu Tangxi had said where she went.
It's a pity that Mrs. Chen only knew that someone sent a greeting to Liu Tangxi that day and heard the word Houfu, but she didn't know which Houfu it was.
Wei Hanzhou always felt that something happened that he didn't know about. Thinking of Liu Tangxi's abnormality recently, he went out without changing his green court clothes.
There are only so many mansions in the capital, and you can find out by asking which one has a banquet today.
Coincidentally, as soon as he left the residence, he met Huang Fucheng, who was returning to the residence on horseback.
Huang Fucheng's attitude towards him today was very different from the previous days. It was no longer cynicism, but looked at him with deep meaning.
"I have seen Huang Fucheng."
No matter how anxious he was, Wei Hanzhou respectfully saluted him.
When Wei Hanzhou saluted him before, Huang Fucheng was quite proud, but at this moment, he was no longer proud. I thought to myself, he is the son-in-law of Marquis Wynn. Is it important that the official position is one and a half grades
He is stronger than Wei Hanzhou because of his wife, but now, the superiority of this idea has become his disadvantage.
The flat wife he married was just a girl from the Shaoqing family of Dali Temple, a prostitute, but Wei Hanzhou married the direct daughter of the Hou family.
Really people are more popular than dead people.
However, Marquis Wynn supports the third prince. He is from the prince's side.
If the third prince and the prince do not deal with each other, then the two of them are enemies.
"Wei Xiu is very polite." Huang Fucheng said rather coldly.
After he finished speaking, he sneered at him a few more words, "Wei Xiuzhuan's identity is different from the past. In the future, I hope that Wei Xiuzhuan will help us a lot because we are neighbors."
Wei Hanzhou frowned, puzzled.
"Yo, looking at you like this, is it possible that you still don't know? Your wife is the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Wynn who has been missing for many years. Isn't Wei Xiuzhuan the son-in-law of Marquis Wynn? Congratulations. "
This congratulations, said very carelessly.
Wei Hanzhou's eyes flashed with surprise.
Wynn Hou's mansion...
He remembered that there was a girl in Marquis Wynn's mansion who the third prince liked very much. He heard that the girl was extremely intelligent and was known as the first talented girl in the capital.
And Marquis Wynn also supports the third prince.
In addition, Marquis Wynn also wanted to betrothed his prostitute to him.
These are probably all the impressions Wei Hanzhou has of the Marquis of Wynn.
After thinking for a moment, Wei Hanzhou stepped up to the Marquis of Wynn.
However, the porter was very cold to him.
Wei Hanzhou's heart sank.
Hou's family is the highest, and it is normal to despise him as the champion. However, when he thought that the lady was in the mansion, his face turned cold.
I don't know if it was the Houfu that looked down on him, or the lady had other ideas.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Wei Hanzhou finally entered.
This quarter of an hour was a long, long time for Wei Hanzhou, and he thought about many things.
From the day I first met Liu Tangxi, I thought of yesterday.
Liu Tangxi didn't really want to marry him from the beginning, and wanted to borrow his mother's hand to avoid people's teeth. Later, she also wanted to escape.
Recently, Liu Tangxi seemed to have something on her mind.
It's just that at the time he could let her escape, but now...
Wei Hanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly and his face became extremely cold.
The servants who greeted Wei Hanzhou in the Hou residence did not have much respect for him, and the stewards even despised him.
Wei Hanzhou didn't say a word, and silently followed the steward forward.
He doesn't care about the rest, it's just, on the lady's side...
In the backyard, Wei Hanzhou finally saw Liu Tangxi.
Among the piles of silk and satin, he saw Liu Tangxi dressed in the color of Concubine Xiang at a glance.
Familiar yet unfamiliar.
She looks somewhat similar to several brothers and sisters, and even more like Marquis Wynn.
It was as if she belonged here and had nothing to do with him.
So, is she not going to go back with him
Wei Hanzhou's heart gradually sank.
Just as he was thinking, in the next instant, she flew back to him like a butterfly.
Hearing her opening, Wei Hanzhou's heart that had been restless for a long time finally settled down.
The dark cloud over his head also dissipated in an instant.
As long as she doesn't leave him, everything is easy to say.
Liu Tangxi is just like him.
She has experienced too many things all day. First, she went to the Marquis of Wenchang's mansion and met many familiar people. Then, she went back to Marquis Wynn's mansion. I saw the original owner's mother and female lead in the Mansion of Marquis Wynn.
After seeing the heroine, she became nervous all the time, always paying attention to everything, for fear of being accidentally killed by the heroine.
She looked smart and calm, but she was actually very flustered.
Seeing Wei Hanzhou at this moment, she felt that she was finally no longer fighting alone, and had something to rely on.
She regretted not telling Wei Hanzhou before. If she had told him earlier, the two of them would come together, and she would not have to carry it alone.
She never knew, unknowingly, that she had become so dependent on Wei Hanzhou.
Wei Hanzhou tightly held Liu Tangxi's hand and said softly, "Well, my husband is here."
Liu Tangxi laughed happily, but with a smile, tears flowed out.
"Why are you here?" Liu Tangxi continued to complain while pulling on Wei Hanzhou's sleeve.
However, after speaking, the voice was very low, not like complaining, but like acting like a spoiled child.
Seeing her tears, Wei Hanzhou felt distressed, raised his hand and wiped her gently.
"cough!"
At this moment, an untimely voice sounded.
Liu Tangxi was startled. She was so excited to see Wei Hanzhou just now that she forgot where she was at the moment. At this moment, hearing Marquis Wynn's voice, he quickly lowered his head and raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face.
Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi.
Liu Tangxi shook his head slightly towards him.
Later, Wei Hanzhou and Liu Tangxi looked at Marquis Wynn at the same time.
I saw Marquis Wynn looking at Wei Hanzhou with a cold face.
"I've seen Marquis." Wei Hanzhou saluted to Marquis Wynn.
"We have admired Wei Xiuzhuan for a long time, and this is the first time we met today. Wei Xiuzhuan is indeed a talented person." Hou Huaien said coldly.
These words are purely polite, not to mention at the palace banquet, the two of them went to court together this morning.
Hou Wynn felt very uncomfortable.
Why does my daughter feel like she went to a wolf's den when she returns to her parents' house? Is it so bad here? Does anyone else dare to bully her
She is his direct daughter, the most noble little master in the mansion, and she has always been the only one who bullied others. Who would dare to provoke her
Was she so excited to see Wei Hanzhou
Thinking of this, Hou Huaien looked at his eldest daughter and sighed slightly.
"You're welcome, Lord Hou." Wei Hanzhou said coldly.
Although it is respectful on the surface, people can't pick out the slightest mistake, but there is not much respect in the tone.
Liu Tangxi naturally heard that Marquis Wynn was displeased with Wei Hanzhou.
It's just, I don't know whether Marquis Wynn is not happy because Wei Hanzhou's status is not high, or because Wei Hanzhou quietly married his daughter.
Or, both.
"The old man got a good wolf cents a few days ago, I wonder if Wei Xiuzhuan would be interested in taking a look?"
"Here."
"Father, my daughter is also interested, why don't we go together." Liu Tangxi interrupted.
Liu Tangxi is not stupid. She naturally knows that Marquis Wynn wants to chat with Wei Hanzhou alone in private. But she was really worried and didn't want Wei Hanzhou to face Marquis Wynn alone.
Marquis Huai'en doesn't care much about her direct daughter, let alone Wei Hanzhou, the son-in-law of the sixth rank.
However, Wei Hanzhou patted her hand and gave her a calm look.
After Wei Hanzhou left with Marquis Wynn, Liu Tangxi still had a reluctant look on his face.
Liu Yunan kept staring at Liu Tangxi's face.
What Liu Tangxi did just now really subverted her previous perception of her.
She has lived two lives and has seen a lot of people and things, so she can naturally see that Liu Tangxi must have revealed her true feelings just now. She really likes and relies on the sixth-rank junior official in front of her.
And those in the daytime are pretending.
Liu Tangxi had clearly liked the third prince the most before, and often spoke in front of her that she would become the third prince concubine and the queen in the future.
She admitted that this new champion is very powerful, and his future career will certainly not be bad, and it is not impossible for him to be honored as a prime minister. However, she could also see that this man had no ambition and could not become the emperor.
So, why did the reborn Liu Tangxi like this champion
Is it because of love
The two people in the previous life were a couple
If this is the case, she can rest assured.
However, everything remains to be seen.
Liu Tangxi had always caused her trouble before, so she couldn't take it lightly.
Liu Tangxi was looking at Wei Hanzhou's back when Mammy Shao came over anxiously.
"Girl, go take a look. Madam woke up and kept saying she wanted to see you."
After listening to Liu Tangxi, he quickly restrained his thoughts and returned to the main courtyard with Mammy Shao.
As soon as he arrived at the main courtyard, he saw Yin shi came out with the help of the maid.
Liu Tangxi was startled, and trotted over to support her.
"Mother, why did you come out?"
Yin shi held Liu Tangxi's hand and said nervously, "Mother thought she was dreaming during the day, and you disappeared again, so I came out to find you quickly."
Hearing this, Liu Tangxi sniffed and muttered, "Mother, your daughter is really back, you don't have to worry, just recuperate."
"Yeah." Yin looked at her daughter's face and responded with a smile.
It was a cool night, and Liu Tangxi supported Yin's arm and walked into the house.
Yin slept all day during the day, and now she was not sleepy, so she sat on the bed and chatted with her daughter.
At first, she didn't say a word, just stared at her daughter.
After watching, he started to ask questions.
"How have your two years been?"
Liu Tangxi looked at Yin's eyes and said, "It's going well."
"real?"
Liu Tangxi nodded, "Really."
"You don't have to lie to your mother. Mother has figured it out now, the person you liked most in the past was the third prince, and you must have no choice but to marry the champion. If you still want to marry the third prince, your mother will definitely find a way for you. " said Yin Shi.
When she saw her daughter in the morning, she only cared about being excited and happy for her daughter or coming back, but didn't think much about it. But at this moment, her mind became clearer and she thought about it a lot. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this matter couldn't be like this.
Marry the third prince? The person who delayed himself at the end of the book? Liu Tangxi couldn't help shivering, and quickly said, "Mother, you forgot, my daughter has lost her memory, and she can't remember the third prince. My daughter thinks her life is going well now."
Seeing her daughter say this, Mrs Yin sighed and said, "How can a champion be worthy of my daughter. Your mother and father don't know about your marriage, so don't count it."
"Mother, really don't need it, my daughter is doing very well, and my husband is also very good to me."
Mammy Shao had just heard about some things, and also saw her girl's attachment to her uncle. Now that the girl is married to the champion, even if she is divorced, she may not be able to marry any Xungui's family again.
As for marrying the third prince? It's not really a good thing.
After all, the person the third prince likes is the second girl, and it is not good for their girls.
Moreover, after observing for a day, she found that her girl was not the same as before.
It used to look powerful, but it had no real effect.
Now it looks soft, but it is difficult to be bullied.
Besides, doesn't the girl like Zhuangyuan Lang
"Madam, didn't you praise the character of the champion at the palace banquet that day? If the girl likes it, I think the girl and the champion are very good together, and the man is talented and beautiful." Mammy Shao persuaded.
After listening to Liu Tangxi, she thought to herself, as long as Mammy Shao doesn't involve things about the heroine, she seems to be quite wise. Once the heroine is involved, he immediately becomes a slave.
"At that time, I didn't know he was Xixi's husband. If I knew, I would also be dissatisfied." Yin Shi pursed his lips and said.
Mammy Shao said with a smile, "You forgot that the first-ranking scholar will never change to the girl until his death. The emperor ordered her to divorce his wife, but he refused."
Hearing this, Yin shi's face became much better.
In order to prevent the Yin family from making small moves behind her back and marrying herself to the third prince, Liu Tangxi thought about it for a while, and then continued her efforts: "Mother, after all, it was my mother-in-law who saved me, otherwise, my daughter might really be sold into a brothel. already."
Hearing the word brothel, Yin's complexion changed again, and she said with some fear, "It's all my fault, I didn't think highly of you."
"How can I blame my mother, isn't my daughter back now? My mother-in-law is very good to me, and my husband is also very good to me."
"Hey, the family is too poor." Yin sighed.
"Mother, when Xianggong won the first prize, he didn't abandon his daughter because he was sold by others, and he also withstood the emperor's persecution. Now that his daughter has become a Hou's girl, how can he abandon him because his family is poor. What?" Liu Tangxi continued.
These words made Yin shi feel a little more at ease.
"The girl is right. Uncle is a kind and righteous person." Shao Mammy helped.
"The grade is too low." Yin Shi said again.
"Although Xianggong's family is poor and his grade is low, there are also small families who are good. At least, there are not so many troubles at home." Liu Tangxi said.
Hearing this, Yin Shi nodded slightly.
"Besides, I have such a powerful family, and he doesn't dare to accept a child."
"She dares! See if I don't kill him!" Yin Shi said coldly.
"Isn't it? He doesn't dare to have his mother here. So, my daughter thinks it's good to marry him." Liu Tangxi said with a smile.
Thinking of these nasty concubines and concubines and concubines in the mansion, Yin sighed again.
It would be a good thing if my daughter could not experience this.
Gradually, the Yin finally nodded and acquiesced to the marriage.
Next, Mrs Yin asked her how her daughter had been in the countryside for the past two years.
Liu Tangxi pondered for a moment. She felt that she lived a very comfortable and comfortable life, but if she was from Yin's point of view, she would inevitably feel sad when she heard about her life. And Yin's health is not good now, she thinks, she should not stimulate her first.
"Mother, my daughter has come back. We will have time to talk about these words in the future. Why don't you take the medicine first, take a good rest after taking the medicine, and when you are healed, the daughter will tell you slowly?"
Yin Shi was already a little tired, so he nodded after hearing what his daughter said.
Afterwards, Liu Tangxi personally fed Yin's medicine.
After taking the medicine, Yin shi lay down.
However, after lying down, she still looked at Liu Tangxi and held her hand tightly, never daring to close her eyes.
"Mother, don't worry, my daughter is here with you tonight."
A smile appeared on Yin's face, holding her daughter's hand, and finally closed her eyes with satisfaction.
On the other side, Hou Huai'en was talking to Wei Hanzhou in the study.
Hou Huai'en is much calmer than Yin's. To be exact, he doesn't care about his daughter as much as Yin's.
He did have dissatisfaction with his son-in-law as a father in his heart, but, more importantly, as a prince, he was thinking about the entire court situation.
His daughter has already married him, and even if he is dissatisfied, this champion is already his son-in-law. Moreover, it is difficult for her daughter to marry a better one if she is really divorced. Moreover, the eldest daughter did not go with the second daughter to rob the third prince, which was a happy event.
Now that I think about it, he seems to have picked up a champion son-in-law for nothing.
After stabbing Wei Hanzhou for a few words, Marquis Wynn said as if giving alms, "The emperor has a bad impression of you, and there is nothing good about the Hanlin Academy. Now the third prince is quite well-connected in the official department. In a few days, you can report to the Ministry of Officials."
Wei Hanzhou's expression was the same as before. After hearing this, he very respectfully refused, "I'm afraid that the lower officials have little knowledge, and I'm afraid that it will be difficult to be competent. I'm afraid that I will live up to the good intentions of the Hou Ye, so it is better to stay in the Hanlin Academy."
Hearing this, Hou Wynn was not happy.
How many people wanted to be his son-in-law but couldn't do it, and how many people wanted him to give him an official position, but he gave it, and some people didn't want it.
Ah.
Sure enough, he is from the country, and his vision is short-sighted.
"After a few years in the Hanlin Academy, the best thing is not to go to the Ministry of Personnel, and then stay for a few decades to join the cabinet. Now that you are the number one scholar, being able to spend a few years less is only good for you and not bad. You Just be prepared, and don't worry about the rest." Hou Wynn was a little impatient.
Wei Hanzhou clenched his fists, then loosened them again, soothed his emotions, and said, "Thank you, Lord Hou, for your suggestion, the senior officials are not worthy enough."
The prince is cruel, and the emperor does not like it. It is only a matter of time before he is abolished.
The power of the third prince is becoming stronger and stronger, and there are many supporters, and it is very likely that he will ascend to the throne. Only, supporting the prince is orthodox.
Moreover, there is also King Jin who is getting stronger and stronger, and was recalled by the emperor.
Now that he has no foundation in the court, it is better not to help anyone and only be loyal to the emperor.
No matter who takes the top, he is loyal and will not be completely liquidated.
In this way, he can protect both himself and his home.
Having said that, there is nothing that Hou Wynn doesn't understand.
He thought it was a see-through, but he turned out to be a nerd, a short-sighted nerd.
Really disappointed him.
After the two said a few more words, Marquis Wynn got impatient to see this son-in-law who didn't know the current affairs, raised his hand to let him leave, and didn't mention Liu Tangxi at all.
Wei Hanzhou came out of the study.
The steward at the door did not walk in the direction of the inner courtyard because of him, but led him out.
Wei Hanzhou's face was extremely ugly.
Seeing that he was going to walk outside through the hanging flower door, suddenly, at the corner, a person appeared.
"Xiang Gong~"
In the darkness, the red lantern shone on Liu Tangxi's face, and her face also turned red. Occasionally a cool breeze blows, and the few strands of her restless hair blow on her face, blending with her sweet smile, like a fairy in the dark night.
Wei Hanzhou's expression instantly returned to normal, and he walked quickly towards Liu Tangxi.
"Why are you waiting here?" Wei Hanzhou asked.
Liu Tangxi smiled and said, "I knew that Lord Hou would not be too--"
Speaking of this, Liu Tangxi suddenly realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly looked at the steward beside him.
"Cough, that, I have a few words with Xianggong, don't follow me." After speaking, Liu Tangxi grabbed Wei Hanzhou's hand and walked towards the small garden beside him.
Going to a place where no one was around, Liu Tangxi stopped.
Wei Hanzhou looked down at the hands they held together and asked, "How long have you been waiting, why are your hands so cold?"
Liu Tangxi smiled and said, "It didn't take long, just arrived."
Liu Tangxi had actually been waiting here for a while.
Thinking of the look on Wei Hanzhou's face just now by Marquis Wynn, what Mammy Shao said in the morning, and Yin's attitude towards Wei Hanzhou just now, she thinks Marquis Wynn shouldn't say anything nice to Wei Hanzhou.
It is estimated that even if Wei Hanzhou is not forced to reconcile with her, he will say something else.
Thinking about her identity, she hadn't explained it clearly to Wei Hanzhou. After thinking about it, she came out after Yin shi fell asleep.
However, she didn't go in to disturb them, and just waited outside.
Wei Hanzhou wrapped Liu Tangxi's hand in his palm, warming her up.
Liu Tangxi glanced down, and the smile on his face became even bigger. However, she still had something to ask.
"What did my father just tell you?"
"Nothing to say."
Hearing this, Liu Tangxi was immediately dissatisfied. This dog man is a sullen gourd when it comes to this kind of thing, and doesn't tell her the truth.
"Does my father think that you are not worthy of me, forcing you to leave with me? It is true, I have now become the daughter of the Hou's mansion, you are just a small sixth-rank official, you are not worthy of it. Mine." Liu Tangxi said with a smile.
This sounds like a joke.
Wei Hanzhou glanced at her and said lightly, "My lady is thinking too much."
Liu Tangxi was a little disappointed. It seems that Marquis Wynn really knows how to calculate.
"Is it?"
Just as she was thinking about this, she only heard Wei Hanzhou ask a question, "When did the lady find out who she is?"
Liu Tangxi suddenly got stuck and looked at Wei Hanzhou blankly.
Wei Hanzhou's whole body was shrouded in the dark night, only those eyes were frighteningly bright.
Liu Tangxi was a little nervous, swallowed, and said, "Just... I just found out today."
"Oh, really?" Wei Hanzhou asked indifferently.
"When... of course it's true." Liu Tangxi blinked, "Today I went to Wenchang Marquis Mansion as a guest and was recognized by the old lady, and then I went back to the mansion with my two younger sisters."
"Oh." Wei Hanzhou's tone was still cold.
Liu Tangxi felt that Wei Hanzhou did not believe her. She looked left and right, thinking about what happened during the day, and began to think about how to explain it to be more reasonable.
Got it!
"Why didn't you tell me what you said at the palace banquet that day, which made me almost embarrassed today!"
Wei Hanzhou frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "My husband remembers that what he told that day was the truth."
"Even if it's the truth, what if I don't want to say that? Don't others think I'm a liar. It's your fault for not telling me clearly, I wasn't prepared."
So, blame him
However, no matter whether she has amnesia or not, when she knows her identity, this is not the most important thing to him.
As long as she is still by his side, she is his wife.
Since she didn't want to say it, he didn't ask.
Wei Hanzhou didn't want to dwell too much on this matter, and said, "It's cold, go back to the manor."
Liu Tangxi pursed her lips.
"Huh?" Wei Hanzhou looked sideways at her.
"Well, why don't you go back alone first." Liu Tangxi whispered.
Wei Hanzhou's face suddenly turned cold.
Looking at his face, Liu Tangxi didn't dare to say anything further, but he still had to finish what he had to say, "Uh, what, my mother is ill, very ill, and I have to take care of her here. I haven't seen me in years, so I'm sad if I don't see you."
Taking care of parents is right and proper.
No matter how unhappy Wei Hanzhou is, he will not stop him.
"Yeah." Wei Hanzhou replied dully, "Then when are you going back?"
"Let's do it in a few days." After that, Liu Tangxi patted Wei Hanzhou on the shoulder and said, "Don't be sad, don't miss me too much, I'll be back soon."
Wei Hanzhou raised his eyes and glanced at her, his eyes were very deep, as if full of dissatisfaction.
Seeing this look, Liu Tangxi looked around, saw no one, stood on tiptoe, and kissed Wei Hanzhou on the cheek.
This was the first time that Liu Tangxi took the initiative to defend Hanzhou. After kissing him, she didn't dare to look at his face, and ran away quickly with a blushing face.
Wei Hanzhou stood there for a long time, touched his cheek, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Then, with a smile on his face, he walked out of the mansion with a cold face. ,,,
