Mrs. Zhao and Zhao Qingxi looked at Zhao Zaifu, thinking together, the beauty of Lin'an is indeed not to be underestimated.
After today she confronted Mrs. Hou Ji of Wuwei tit for tat, pushed her into the water with a smile, and rescued her personally with a smile, no one would underestimate her anymore.
Zhao Zaifu said again, "From today onwards, Xi'er's marriage and the future of our Zhao family may have to be re-planned."
Mrs. Zhao's complexion tightened, "Master, is there no room for change? That Lin'an Huayan doesn't like His Royal Highness, she really doesn't know what to do. She likes Lu Zhiling, and she openly expresses her heart. What she did today is really unacceptable to the world. Our Xier Not necessarily without a chance."
Zhao Zaifu said in a dejected voice, "Six hundred thousand taels of silver, this equivalent price, although Lin'an Huayan's idea, but since His Royal Highness obeyed, then, that is to tell us, for me and our Zhao family, the relationship is so important , It can’t be more serious. If he married Xi’er, he would not choose Lin’an Huayan, it’s just that we are unwilling. Therefore, even if there is a chance, the position of Crown Princess will not be Xi’er.”
Zhao Qingxi's face turned pale.
Mrs. Zhao was very distressed, and said angrily, "Your Highness, why is that? What's wrong with Xi'er? Lin'an Huayan is not bad, but she acts so arrogantly and recklessly, recklessly, regardless of consequences, she can do well Are there people around him?"
Zhao Zaifu said, "If it's good or not, it's been a year since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince chose her. We need to recognize this fact. From now on, we can no longer deceive ourselves."
Mrs. Zhao was discouraged, "Then we, Xi'er, who should we marry?"
Zhao Zaifu looked at Zhao Qingxi, and finally sighed, "Last year, Xi'er was seventeen, which was the most suitable age to discuss marriage, but the crown prince didn't choose her, so we are not reconciled, we delay it, she is already eighteen this year, we can't do it anymore It's delayed, so I have to discuss marriage quickly. After tomorrow, I will screen all the unmarried young talents in the capital to see who is the most suitable."
Mrs. Zhao nodded helplessly, "That's the only way."
Zhao Zaifu said, "Apart from His Royal Highness, there are still excellent young masters in this capital. In this world, although the crown prince is the best person, others may not be far behind. Even if they are bad, they are not too bad. Otherwise, how could there be four princes?"
Mrs. Zhao felt a little better when she heard the words, and turned to Zhao Qingxi, "Xi'er, don't think about His Highness the Crown Prince anymore, he has a cold heart and focuses on Sheji, who knows why he married Lin'an Huayan for you, you Father, I, our Zhao family, treated Your Highness so dearly, but this is what I got in return, really."
"Mother." Zhao Qingxi interrupted Mrs. Zhao's disrespectful words, and said calmly, "Father is right, my daughter may not necessarily marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Just listen to my father, starting tomorrow, help me choose someone to discuss marriage Bar."
Mrs. Zhao patted her hand, almost crying, "My dear child, I have suffered so much for you."
Zhao Qingxi smiled, "My daughter is not bitter. She has been taught by her parents since she was a child. The daughter of our Zhao family and the members of the Zhao family should not be looked down upon."
Zhao Zaifu showed appreciation, "That's right, she is indeed my daughter. It is his loss that His Royal Highness does not marry you."
The night was getting darker, the stars and the moon were hidden in the clouds, the sky was pitch black, and most of the mansions in the Southern Chu capital had fallen asleep, but the lights in several houses were still brightly lit.
In addition to the Zhao Mansion, there is another mansion that can't sleep at night, and that is Wuweihou Mansion and Jingguo Mansion.
After Wuweihou Ji's wife woke up, she cried loudly to Wuweihou.
Marquis Wuwei had always been at odds with Zhao Zaifu, so he did not go to the Zhao residence to celebrate his birthday today, only his stepwife Liu Fuxiang went. Therefore, he naturally didn't see Huayan, nor did he expect her step-wife to come back lying down while walking.
Like Duke Jing, he had led soldiers and fought wars, and now the world is peaceful and prosperous, but Southern Chu did not emphasize civility over martial arts, so Marquis Wuwei and Duke Jing still had a very high status in the court. However, he is different from pure warriors like Jing Guogong. He has a good understanding of the ways of civil servants and the art of authority, and he is extremely rare in the emperor's generation.
Back then, there were two Jiaos in the Mei family, one entered the East Palace, and the other married into the Marquis of Wuwei. Although they all died early in the end, it can't kill the fact that so many young talents were vying for it back then, and Marquis Wuwei married one.
It can be seen that Marquis Wuwei was extremely outstanding back then.
Facing Liu Fuxiang's cry of fear and resentment, he looked at her calmly for a while, and after listening to her for a while, he said, "I know about it, so you can rest."
Liu Fuxiang stopped crying suddenly, her eyes were swollen, "Master Hou, you don't make decisions for my concubine."
Marquis Wuwei said, "Since Zi Zhan was there at the time and he handled the matter, it represented the attitude of the Marquis of Wuwei. Once this matter is revealed, it cannot be changed."
Liu Fuxiang dare not put it down
Letter, "Master Hou, that concubine has been bullied by her just like that, she is not a princess, and that shameless woman openly said that she likes Lu Zhiling, but the concubine can't see it, whoever said a few words, she is so cruel, To really deceive others, to deceive a concubine, is to deceive you, Lord Marquis."
Marquis Wuwei lowered his face, "Since the Marquis said he knew about this matter, you don't need to say anything more, so you can rest easy. That Lin'an Huayan, since she acted like this, is indeed crazy, but I have already asked people and said It’s not right for you to talk like a woman today, she personally went into the water to rescue you, since your health is fine, there is nothing to say.”
Liu Fuxiang was not reconciled, and cried, "Master Hou, I thought I was going to die at the time, I was so scared, I was afraid that I would never be able to serve you again, how could I let her go so easily?"
Marquis Wu Wei looked at her and comforted her, "The woman the crown prince wants to marry, how can she be a good match? You are not wronged if you suffer under her hands today. In the future, you will learn a lot of wisdom."
Liu Fuxiang wanted to say again, "Master Hou"
Marquis Wuwei tensed up, "Otherwise, what will happen to you?"
Liu Fuxiang looked at his face, her heart tightened, she closed her mouth, and after a while, she said aggrievedly, "My concubine listens to Master Hou."
Marquis Wuwei looked pale, nodded, "It's good to have a rest." After speaking, he gave a few more instructions and went to the study.
After Marquis Wuwei left, Liu Fuxiang's face was vicious, vicious, and angry. She clutched the quilt tightly and almost tore the brocade quilt. She had heard that she fell into a coma after falling into the water. Su Zizhan happened to arrive , but did not care about her, but took off his cloak and gave it to Lin'an Huayan.
He was so protective of Huayan in Lin'an, not only gave him a cloak, but also dealt with it in such a small way, completely ignoring her. how can he do this
how can he
As soon as Lin'an Huayan entered Beijing, she smashed the signboard of the Shunfang gambling house that he had been running for ten years, and took away the profits of his ten-year gambling shop. He didn't hate her, didn't get angry, didn't she want to kill her? protect
Who has Su Zizhan protected in the past five years
She felt that her nails were digging into her flesh, it hurt her heart, and her heart hurt so much that she was almost being cut into pieces.
Does he hate her? He hates her for marrying Lord Hou back then
She closed her eyes, wishing she could kill that Lin'an Huayan.
When Marquis Wuwei arrived at the study, he asked the housekeeper, "Has Zi Zhan come back?"
The butler hurriedly replied respectfully, "Back to Lord Marquis, the young master has not come back yet, I heard that after leaving the Zhao residence, he went out of the city to race horses with Lu Shizi again."
Marquis Wuwei glanced at the sky, "I haven't come back at this hour, it seems that I will definitely not come back today."
The housekeeper nodded, "Nine out of ten will not come back."
Marquis Wuwei's face was heavy, "Does he still have this family in his heart? If he doesn't want to come back, he won't come back. Even if I look for him, I can't see anyone. What exactly does he want to do? Is he really determined not to inherit my title?"
The housekeeper dared not answer.
Marquis Wuwei seemed angry, and shouted outside, "Come here."
"Master Hou." Someone appeared in response.
Marquis Wuwei asked angrily, "We can find out what happened between him and Huayan in Lin'an."
The man immediately replied, "Back to the Marquis, the Crown Princess-to-be went to Shangshunfang Casino. After winning the Nine Gods of Gamblers, Lu Zhiling came to find the young master. The young master turned on his drunk beauty and sent it to the East Palace. People sent him back to Bantan, Lu Shizi visited the East Palace at night and was trapped by the prince, the young master brought a drunken beauty to the rescue, took the princess and concubine out of Beijing, after that, circled with His Royal Highness in Banbi Mountain until late at night, waiting for His Royal Highness Before I found it, I abandoned the Crown Princess and went to Tangquan Mountain, and I have not returned until today, and went to the Zhao Mansion. When my wife fell into the water, I untied the cloak and gave it to the Crown Princess, and then went out to race horses with Lu Shizi again."
The secret guards of the Hou Mansion have been paying attention to these things clearly.
Marquis Wuwei raised his brows after hearing this, "In the past five years, when has he cared about anyone? Lu Zhiling is one of them. Although his friendship with him is not shallow, it is not deep enough to make him turn against Yun Chi. This beautiful face in Lin'an, Are you really going to treat him differently?"
The dark guard lowered his head, "It's indeed a little different for the son to treat the crown princess."
Marquis Wuwei's face was gloomy, and he said for a while, "No wonder"
When the butler heard these three words, cold sweat broke out on his back.
Marquis Wuwei didn't say any more or ask any more questions, he waved his hands, "You all go down" and added, "If he comes back, tell him to come see me."
The dark guard stepped back in an instant, and the butler quickly responded, and stepped back out of the study.
