Chapter 130:
Wei Heng saw his two daughters in danger with his own eyes. One's face was covered in blood, and the other was unconscious. Even though he was used to being calm, he couldn't help but feel a little panicked at that time.
However, the daughter was already considered half a member of the royal family and was taken away directly by His Highness the Crown Prince. With Xiao Junzhan’s aura at that time, Wei Heng, the father, did not dare to disturb her.
When he returned home, Jiang had already received the news and was waiting for him at the door.
The couple have been getting along a bit awkwardly recently. At this time, Jiang didn't care about anything. When he saw him coming back, he hurriedly went up to greet him and asked, "How is Ran Ran? Is she hurt?"
“I stood far away and saw that Ranran was well protected and not injured.” Wei Heng stretched out his hand to support her arm and answered seriously: “It’s Qiniang. She is in a trance and is unconscious.”
Whose child feels sorry for the other? When she heard that her youngest daughter was not injured, Jiang was so relieved that she even automatically blocked out her husband's subsequent words.
Hold on Grandma Zhou's hand and sit on the chair, You looked at him uneasily and asked, "Can you see clearly? Ran Ran is really not injured?"
Wei Heng replied patiently again, and said: "If Madam is worried, go to Qixiang Palace to see Ran Ran early tomorrow morning."
Just as Mrs. Jiang was about to speak, a servant who looked like a palace chamberlain came in a hurry. Entering the room, he saluted and said, "I have met the Duke, and I have met the Duke's wife."
When someone came from the palace, Mrs. Jiang suppressed her anxiety and asked, "What's the matter with my father-in-law? But my girl..."
"Miss Wei was a little frightened, but fortunately she was not injured. His Highness sent a servant to let you two know so as not to worry the palace." The servant said respectfully: "The seventh girl in your family is also fine."
Hearing this, Jiang was finally relieved.
She put her hands together and recited the name "Buddha".
After sending away the chamberlain who came to deliver the news, Jiang couldn't help but feel touched again by His Highness's care for his daughter, who could even take into account such details.
…
When Wei Hanzhang woke up, it was already bright. She sat up and thought about before falling asleep last night...
I don’t know when that person left.
Luzhu Lulan heard the noise inside and knew that her master was awake, so she went inside to help her wash up.
“Girl,” Luzhu whispered, “several ladies sent me notices early this morning, saying they were coming to visit the girl, and they are all waiting in the inner hall now.”
"What?" Wei Hanzhang was startled at first, then quickly reacted and said: "Why don't you wake me up? People who don't know think I am deliberately making things difficult for others."
Luzhu smiled and said, "His Highness specially called Eunuch Ning to come and said that no matter who comes, they can't disturb your sleep."
"..." Wei Hanzhang was silent and said, "Hurry up, don't keep others waiting."
But my heart was filled with sweet bubbles. Sure enough, older men know how to hurt others.
"There is no hurry. Our wives are here too," said Lu Lan, who was describing the flowers. "She is chatting with the wives in the inner hall. It doesn't matter if you go slower."
“Aniang is here too?” Wei Hanzhang was a little excited. It was so thrilling yesterday, and she also missed her family.
“Madam came here early in the morning. By the way, the person from Duke Anguo’s residence is also outside, and...” Luzhu paused her dressing hands slightly and said, “There is also the former Princess Chengyi.”
"Qi Yuxiao? What is she doing here?" This really surprised Wei Hanzhang. Did he come to pay her respects to her 'aunt'?
As for Liu Wanning coming, she didn't find it strange. It was just a drunkard who didn't care about drinking.
Since Wei Hanzhang knew that Jiang was entertaining the guests for her, Wei Hanzhang was not in a hurry to go out.
Thinking that this was the first time for her to meet the ladies of various families as the future princess, it was necessary to dress up in a more formal way, so she sat down calmly. But he was not idle, and asked about Wei Hansu's condition. After knowing that the person had regained consciousness, Wei Hanzhang felt relieved.
After everything was done, Wei Hanzhang took Mei Gu's hand and walked into the inner hall.
It was indeed very lively inside. The ladies from all the families were dressed in luxury, with hairpins and pearls, and their beauty was eye-catching. The small inner hall was full of people, including some whom Wei Hanzhang knew and some whom he had never met before.
Seeing her come in, the ladies who were chatting and joking all stood up and saluted.
Wei Hanzhang's expression remained unchanged. He asked them to stand up first, and then said: "You are too polite."
Wei Hanshuang's mother-in-law, Mrs. Yonglehou, also came. She said solemnly: "Although the wedding ceremony has not been performed, the imperial edict has been issued. Then you are the king, and we are the ministers. The ceremony cannot be abolished."
Mrs. Yongle Marquis came to propose marriage to her nephew in one day and "ruined the marriage". Jiang knew it, but she didn't blame her. Others didn't know the inside story. How could she, a mother, not know?
Hearing this, Jiang said with a smile: "Speaking of which, we are all relatives. Now that the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers has been fulfilled, we can have a good talk."
Wei Hanzhang sat at the top and looked around, trying to see who was coming.
Soon, she expressed doubts about Jiang’s statement that “they are all relatives.”
Except for the Yongle Hou family who were related by marriage because of Wei Hanshuang, the only relative in the palace was Wei Hanye's husband's wife, the Duke of Jiang's house.
But Luzhu was right. The people who submitted the posts today were all ladies from various families, but not all of them were married women.
At a glance, basically every lady is surrounded by her own girl. They are all young girls, not much different from her in age.
Liu Wanning was also sitting on the chair. Seeing Wei Hanzhang looking over, he smiled slightly, with a bit of respect.
It’s really flexible and flexible.
Qi Yuxiao held her tea cup and stared at the patterns on it without raising her head at all.
Wei Hanzhang didn't bother to look at her anymore and just said to everyone: "You should have heard that I was a little frightened yesterday and got up a little late today. I can't bear to keep everyone waiting. "
Of course he was respectful and polite.
I know that she grew up in the south of the Yangtze River, and she doesn't know much about the families in the capital, let alone a few of them.
As soon as Wei Hanzhang sat down, the ladies sitting in the hall began to greet each other one by one. Those who came with the girls from their families had to introduce them emphatically.
Wei Hanzhang listened with an unchanging expression. From time to time, he would imitate the tone of his elders and ask a question or two.
Jiang had already seen the intention of these people. She was originally worried that her daughter would be too young to be angry and cause trouble, but she didn't expect to see her acting like a young adult.
I couldn’t help but feel a little funny, but also felt relieved.
Liu Wanning remained silent, silently watching the lawsuit in the hall.
Qi Yuxiao, on the other hand, looked a little sarcastic.
Wei Hanzhang did not eat breakfast, but was twisting a piece of tea cake and putting it into his mouth when he heard Mrs. Yongyi talking again.
"It's really worrying that you encountered something like this when you first came to the palace," said Mrs. Yongyi, "I asked my wife to see that the inner city is still too deserted. More people need to live in it. As it becomes more popular, naturally, Snakes, insects, rats and ants don’t dare to be so arrogant.” (End of Chapter)
