Chapter 962: Down to the south of Xinjiang

Views:

On the eighth day of September in the fourteenth year of Guangde, it was cold dew.

Just after breakfast, Ruan Rong led the sisters to the clothes room and walked among the drying lines.

Ruan Rong reached a few leather clothes, stopped her steps, stepped up to try it, then shook her head and said, "Qianxiang Country is not so cold, but it is extremely humid, so there is no need to bring such airtight wool clothes. Either way."

Later, Qingwen just recorded this on the record. She didn't want Ruan Rong to change her mind again, and hesitantly said: "Forget it, it's better to bring two pieces of preparedness - I don't know that it is inconvenient to carry so many luggage on the road."

"Sister is too worried."

Ping'er continued, "This time, my grandfather is serving as a marriage envoy, and there are only a few dozen female relatives accompanying me. Even if our family is simple and easy, can we still take them for a thousand days and eight hundred nights?"

At the end of last month, after serving Wang Xifeng's confinement and the friendship between master and servant, Ping'er officially transferred to the Sun family.

Because of the inheritance of Xiangling's three rooms in the west wing, he and Ruan Rong usually wheel the horses in the same courtyard, but Xing Xiuyan, who married half a month earlier, is more familiar and harmonious.

But Ruan Rong heard this, her heart was relieved, and she looked around, seeing Second Sister You, Xiangling, Xing Xiuyan, and Ping'er all around, she waved her sleeves and said, "Okay, sisters. Don't all guard me, each of us will enter into our own hearts - when you have chosen, it will not be too late to register together."

When the girls saw what she had said, they all scolded them one by one and dispersed, leading their maids to choose their clothes.

Originally, she wanted to send everyone away, so she carefully looked for some desirable outfits for Sun Shaozong, but Ruan Rong lost her interest in the quietness around her.

There is a wandering choice without a ride, and there are thousands of thoughts in my heart, and they come one after another.

Three days ago, the Concubine Nan'an issued an decree from the Inner Court to accept Jia Tanchun, the third young lady of the Rong Kingdom, as her righteous daughter, and bestow Renhe County Master.

Two days later, at the request of Qianxiangguo, the imperial court married the prince of Renhe County to the prince of the country, and promised to have a good relationship forever.

And Sun Shaozong, who used to be the military attache in Qianxiang, was appointed as the marriage envoy to take charge of the marriage.

Hearing this news, Ruan Rong was both happy and worried.

The good news is that Sun Shaozong will naturally be able to check the news of his father when he goes south this time.

What worries me is that even though Qianxiang has descended, the country of Zhenla is still stubbornly resisting. I heard that a group of assassins were sent a few months ago to try to kill the queen mother and son of the Queen of Qianxiang who abandoned her trust and betrayed the alliance.

And inside Qianxiang Country, there is no lack of steadfast main-fighting factions, still looking for opportunities to turn defeat into victory.

Being sent to have a marriage on the cusp of this turbulent situation, it is inevitable that there will be some twists and turns.

"Sister, what do you think of this one?"

Just thinking about it, Ping'er suddenly held up a long gown, looked for her and asked her to take a look.

Ruan Rong calmed down and swept the long gown, but she couldn't help laughing dumbly: "Where did my sister find such a piece? Our grandfather can't despise such a fancy southern style."

Before he finished speaking, Second Sister You flashed next to her, holding a fancy robe.

Ruan Rong didn't feel a little surprised. It's understandable to say that Ping'er has just passed the door and can't figure out what Sun Shaozong likes. How can you say that you are the old man in the house, how can you be so confused

"Sister, we didn't choose this for you."

At this time, I heard Second Sister You smiled and said: "I heard that in Qianxiangguo, the most fashionable and bright style materials, we each found a few pieces and prepared to ask the grandfather to take them there. Filial piety."

Before she finished speaking, Xiangling from the side pulled Xing Xiuyan over and said, "Miss Xing brought this up first!"

Second Sister You glanced at Xiang Ling, pursed her lips unpleasantly, but didn't say anything - they all said that she was a distant friend, but she was very harmonious with the neighboring Ping'er, but she didn't like Xing Xiuyan.

And Ruan Rong saw that the two of them were also holding some brocades, and her eyes couldn't help but sway.

She gave a solemn bow, and was waiting to say a few words of kindness to her sisters. She never thought that a woman suddenly came running, saying that the eldest lady had prepared something and asked her to come over. Get an idea.

With no choice, Ruan Rong had to give another salute and followed the old woman to Jia Yingchun's place.

By the time she came out of the big room with a lot of things, it was almost noon.

Therefore, when she returned to her small courtyard, Ruan Rong first ordered the kitchen to prepare a small banquet, and then ordered the sisters to come over for a drink, so as to express their gratitude at the banquet.

After all these things were arranged, she went to the west end room to visit her second son who was still in swaddling clothes.

He didn't want to open the curtain and entered the room, but saw Sun Shaozong sitting beside the shaker, pondering something with his hand on his forehead.

Ruan Rong subconsciously eased her steps, but when she got closer, Sun Shaozong was inevitably alarmed.

Sun Shaozong raised his head and glanced at him, seeing who was coming, he made a silent gesture, and then pointed to his sleeping son in the shaker.

Ruan Rong remained silent, and found a spring stool nearby to sit next to her, looking at Sun Shaozong several times before he spoke.

In the end, Sun Shaozong couldn't see it, and asked: "What's wrong? Is it the father-in-law's side? Is there anything else to explain?"

Ruan Rong shook her head. Yesterday, she had written a letter to her family, and she had already said what she wanted to entrust.

But even so, he still felt uneasy.

She didn't want to worry Sun Shaozong, so she opened her mouth and asked, "What was your father thinking?"

"It's nothing."

Sun Shaozong stretched out a large waist, wrapped one arm around Ruan Rong's shoulders, reached into the shaker with the other, lightly touched the fine wool on his second son's face, and said with a smile, "I don't know how to get it these past two days. Suddenly I remembered a novel I read before."

"What novel?"

"The protagonist in the book also served as a marriage messenger, but the end of this marriage..."

The experience of giving a marriage envoy surnamed Wei flashed in his mind, and Sun Shaozong couldn't help but smile again, but he couldn't explain it to Ruan Rong in detail, so he changed his face and said: "This time I go south, it will take a year or a half. Zai, it's up to you to support the family - nothing else, You Shi is now pregnant..."

"You sister is pregnant?"

Ruan Rong was stunned when she heard the words, and blurted out, "Why didn't you hear her mention a word?"

Sun Shaozong laughed and said: "When she was not pregnant, she wished she could talk about the child all day long; now she is really pregnant, but she was afraid of scaring the child away, so after the diagnosis the day before yesterday, she did not dare to speak out. ."

This is just a superficial reason. In fact, Second Sister You has a faint intention to be wary of Ruan Rong, for fear that in order to consolidate the dominance of the family, she will secretly use Sun Shaozong's poison at home.

And although Sun Shaozong believes that Ruan Rong is not like this, he is not stupid enough to analyze it clearly in front of her.

After a few words and a few words, and after reminding her to take good care of her, the Lushan Claw, which was on her shoulders, quietly slipped to her chest.

Seeing that he was caught upright, but Ruan Rong held him back, she said in a sullen voice, "Master, please don't mess around. At noon, I even invited my sisters over for a drink!"

"It's all my own family, what's there to be afraid of? Let's have a shower with me first..."

knock knock knock

Before she could finish her sentence, there was a knock on the door outside, and Ruan Rong hurriedly took advantage of the situation to get out.

Sun Shaozong didn't finish his thoughts, so he went to the door angrily, picked up the curtain and looked out, but it was the Shiliuhou outside.

"what happened again?"

"The prince invites you to the banquet!"

tsk~

At this point, someone was sent to invite...

Could it be that the 'report performance', which has been brewing for two months, is scheduled for today
