The eldest princess raised her eyes, rubbed her forehead, and ordered the maid to put away the brocade box containing "Ningxi Palace", and then someone invited Fang in.
"Why are you here? Where's Brother Qi? Why don't you bring him here too?"
"Brother Qi has been studying for a long time today, and he just had some snacks, so I asked him to go back and rest for a while. He must be asleep in the room now!" Fang replied with a smile.
"That's right! He's still young, and it's time for his body to grow. Although reading is important, it shouldn't be a waste of time. It's not worth the loss." The eldest princess has always loved the only blood of the eldest son. Don't worry about exhorting.
Fang agreed, and chatted with her about the family affairs for a long time, and then pretended to be casual and asked: "Yesterday, it seems that the second sibling has offended the mother, but I don't know what it is?"
The smile on the eldest princess's face froze for an instant, her eyes narrowed slightly, and her eyes were sharp.
Fang felt uncomfortable being stared at by her, and was about to say something, but the Eldest Princess replied slowly: "It's not a big deal, she was young and ignorant and said something wrong, I trained her a few times and let her Go back and reflect."
Fang's heart skipped a beat.
Not a big deal? It's not a big deal when it's all troubled like that
It's just that what she cared about was the final result of that matter, but she didn't care about the process at all. Now that she heard the eldest princess' answer, her heart sank, and she suddenly realized that she was thinking too well.
Seeing the eldest princess's attitude, it seems that this matter is impossible.
It would be fine if she didn't know about such a thing, but now that she knew about it but didn't get the expected result, it was inevitable that she felt a little bit of resentment towards the Eldest Princess in her heart.
What else did you say that you have considered everything for the first room, and the second room is not the one you are facing when things come to an end? If it's really a cold tea, my husband has been away for so many years, I'm afraid few people still remember the good things he did.
She tried her best to suppress the resentment in her heart, and patted her chest pretending to be relaxed: "That's good, I was so shocked when I heard the comments from the servants at first, just thinking that this is impossible! Two Brother and sister are the most gentle people, and they are extremely filial to their mother, how could they do such unfilial things."
However, even if there is resentment in my heart, even if I try my best to restrain it, I can't hide it from the shrewd eldest princess.
The eldest princess looked at her quietly, a trace of disappointment flashed in her eyes, but she quickly covered it up, unwilling to bring up the matter again, so she changed the subject and asked: "Do you have any thoughts about Bi Rong's marriage?" The candidate in the match?"
Although she sympathizes with the daughter of an old man, she can distinguish between the inside and the outside. Fang Birong is not the daughter of the Wei family after all, and it is really not suitable for her to intervene in her marriage, so she is just taking the time to take care of the details for Fang's family.
Fang steadied herself, when she heard her mentioning her sister, she couldn't help but recall the incident between Bi Rong and Na Qi Liuxiu at the Hundred Flowers Banquet earlier, and couldn't help being upset.
None of these one or two made her feel at ease.
"The youngest son of Mrs. Shoufu is eighteen years old, and he is about the same age as Birong, but I am afraid that their family is too high, so they may not be able to look up to Pinglianghou's residence. The third son of Xu Shangshu's residence is seventeen years old and has good conduct. , if it works out, it will be a good marriage."
"There is also the sixth son of Li Guogong's mansion, now twenty-two, although he is older, he is still a good-looking talent, and he is still a good candidate."
She took a deep breath, and brought several families whom she had been in love with to the Eldest Princess one by one.
After hearing this, the eldest princess frowned slightly.
Zhou Shoufu's Mansion, Xu Shangshu's Mansion, and Liguo Gong's Mansion are all very popular families. Needless to say, the Shoufu and Shangshu, one is the Shoufu of the current dynasty, and the other is the Minister of Officials who is in charge of the promotion and appointment of officials.
Although Duke Li's mansion is weaker than the previous two mansions, Duke Li's concubine's daughter was named Concubine Shu three months ago, and now she is pregnant with a dragon heir, so it is time to be favored.
"You picked good people." She said flatly.
Fang didn't notice what she meant, but his heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "Mother also thinks that these three are good candidates? If that's the case, why don't someone check their words? After all, Bi Rong has already been delayed. Years, this marriage can no longer be delayed."
Is this planning for her to come forward in person
The Eldest Princess couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes anymore, and finally she didn't want to listen to her anymore, and said directly: "I also have a candidate, just listen."
Fang was stunned: "Is there someone for my mother?"
"The eldest son of Guozijian Liu Jijiu, who is twenty years old, is now the new editor of the Imperial Academy. Liu's family is upright, and Mrs. Liu is generous and gentle. Although Mr. Liu is not young, he is known for his talent and is a calm man. Diligence and virtue are precious, and given time, the future is limitless."
Is it the editor of the Imperial Academy again? Could it be that they had offended the editor of the Imperial Academy in their previous life in Pinglianghou's Mansion? How come one and two are entangled!
Originally, I heard that the other party was just a mere Guozijian offering wine, and I lost a lot of interest. Then I heard that this young master of the Liu family is actually the editor of the Imperial Academy, which immediately touched the pain in Fang's heart. Princess, I'm afraid she's going to have a fit on the spot.
Even so, her complexion was still a little unsightly.
"This Liu Jijiu...couldn't it be the one who came from a poor family and pointed at Zhou Shoufu and scolded him face to face?" After a while, she didn't know what had come to her mind, and asked hesitantly.
"It is indeed that one." The Eldest Princess nodded and did not hide it from her.
"This is absolutely wrong. Master Liu has offended the chief assistant. If he becomes in-laws with their family, wouldn't he be implicated?" Fang Shi immediately shook her head and waved her hands.
What a joke, such a family is too late for ordinary people to avoid, so how could it be possible to send it to their door!
"Although Liu Jijiu has a straightforward temper, he is not a fool who doesn't know the severity and the situation. He dared to accuse Zhou Shoufu face-to-face, but he was able to get away with it. The Liu family has been going smoothly for these years, which shows that he has a lot of tricks. Where does the story of being implicated after becoming in-laws come from?" The Eldest Princess patiently explained.
Another layer is not convenient for Fang Shi to say, that is her nephew, today is not someone who can be easily manipulated, and the current dormancy may not be for the sake of a complete liquidation in the future.
After all, today's son and the Zhou family are still involved in the feud of killing his wife!
Concubine Rui, Princess Zhao, died at a very young age. She couldn't believe that after so many years, her nephew, the former His Royal Highness King Rui, could completely forget those times of love.
Once a person dies, the goodness of her life will be infinitely magnified. What's more, the death of Princess Rui itself involves many secret affairs that are not known to the public.
But, what a pity for such a peerless beauty!
"No, no, no, this marriage in Liu's residence is absolutely impossible." Fang did not understand her painstaking efforts, and resolutely refused to agree.
The eldest princess was very disappointed, but she didn't want to force it, she stood up and said, "Since that's the case, you can make up your mind!"
Fang was only troubled by the recent troubles, and didn't pay attention to her attitude for a while, so she said goodbye and left, while Xu Momo, who was watching, shook her head.
"I never thought that one day Bizhen would play tricks on me." After Fang left, the Eldest Princess let out a long sigh, with a somewhat disconsolate expression on her face.
"Your Highness thinks it's too much worry. The eldest lady treats you like her own mother, so why would she treat you like that?" Mother Xu comforted.
The eldest princess shook her head: "You don't have to cover it up for her. Although I am old, I am not a fool. It's okay for others to offend me because of something. She has been in charge of the mansion for many years. Who in the mansion is so angry? I can hide things from her. If she asked me bluntly, why would I not tell me bluntly, but she just made a tentative statement and pretended to be stupid in front of me. Really... "
"Let's listen to what family she chose for Birong? Zhou Shoufu, Xu Shangshu, and Li Guogong? Since the prosperity must decline, Zhou Shoufu has tried to ostracize the emperor for so many years, which has already angered the emperor. One case... Xu's mansion is a good family, but the third son of Xu is weak and sick, and he doesn't have a long life. Then there is the mansion of Li Guogong, why doesn't she think about Qiao Liu's title of "devil king of the world"?"
"After all, Da Furen is young and doesn't have much experience, so I need to ask Your Highness to give some more advice." Madam Xu could only persuade her in this way.
The eldest princess sighed again, but said nothing more.
***
Although the conflicts became more heated during the process, in the end, the desired result was achieved. Shen Xinyan's mood was quite happy, and she relaxed, and this relaxation caused sleepiness to strike violently.
Qiutang and Chunliu, who were waiting for her to take a bath, did not see her response for a long time, and when they looked again, they saw that she had fallen asleep with their eyes closed.
"I can fall asleep even in the bathtub, it shows that Madam has suffered a lot." Chunliu's heart ached.
"What should I do now? The water is going to be cold, Madam can't afford it anymore, if she catches the cold, won't she suffer again?" Qiutang frowned, feeling very distressed.
Wake up Madam, it's rare to see her sleep so soundly, how can she bear it! Don't call, if you catch a cold, won't you suffer
"What's the big deal, didn't you see Shizi is outside?" Chunliu touched her arm, pouted in the direction of the outside, and smiled ambiguously.
Qiutang suddenly realized, slapped her forehead, and laughed too: "I was confused!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, with a happy smile on their faces.
Outside, Wei Junhang's handsome face was rounded and flattened by his daughter as if it were dough, the little girl giggled happily, but the poor prince couldn't even speak properly.
"Good girl, so zero uh..."
"Hmm, this is a little pig, hee hee, sister Xia He, does it look like it to you?" The lawless Fourth Miss Wei pushed Daddy's nose with one hand, pinched his mouth with the other and pulled it out, forcefully The handsome face that could make the heart of the eldest girl and sister-in-law jump wildly turned into a pig doll.
Xia He laughed so hard that she covered her stomach and nodded again and again: "It looks like it, it looks like it, the fourth girl is really amazing!"
When Qiutang came out, she saw such a scene.
Angrily and funny, she pushed Xia He who was laughing unruly, and then smiled and stepped forward to hug Xiao Yingzhi, whose eyes sparkled and her face was red, and rescued the poor Shi Ziye from her daughter's clutches come out.
After Xia He took Xiao Yingzhi out, Qiutang cleared his throat and told about Shen Xinyan falling asleep in the bathtub.
When Wei Junhang heard this, he became anxious: "How can this be done, what if I catch a cold!"
As soon as the words fell, Qiutang felt a blur in front of her eyes, and he disappeared in an instant. After a while, Chunliu covered her mouth and came out of the clean room.
The two looked at each other with a thug smile, walked out lightly, and closed the door very considerately.
But Wei Junhang was only worried about his wife, and didn't think too much about it. With the help of Chunliu, he wiped off the water stains on Shen Xinyan's body, wrapped her in a clean cotton towel, and picked her up horizontally with a strong stride. Going to the bedroom, he didn't realize that Chunliu had already slipped away with a sneaky smile.
"Chunliu, go and get something clean..." He placed the sleeping Shen Xinyan carefully on the bed, turned around and wanted to order Chunliu to dress her, but found that there was no one behind him.
He was stunned, subconsciously looking at his wife on the bed, seeing the white and smooth arms protruding from the brocade quilt, his chest tightened, and suddenly he felt a little dry.
