Chapter 296
The Fu family looked at each other in dismay and dared not hide, and said, "It was delivered at the beginning of November. Not only in the Marquis of Zhenyuan, but also in the capital's famous family."
Even so early, Fu Tingzhou's last fluke was lost. The date of posting the invitation was before Fu Tingzhou received the transfer order, that is to say, Lu Heng did not deliberately marry Wang Yanqing to stimulate Fu Tingzhou, he really wanted to marry her.
Fu Tingzhou's heart seemed to be numb, and he couldn't feel the pain at all: "Why do you guys think of the engagement date for Hong Wanqing and me?"
Chen Shi was stunned by the question, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "The Holy One has given you a marriage, isn't it a logical thing to ask for an appointment?"
Fu Tingzhou's heart became clearer. It was Lu Heng who did a little trick to induce Chen's and Hong's family to set the wedding before he returned to Beijing. The Chen family and the Hong family didn't even realize that it was someone else who led them to do this.
It was in line with Lu Heng's style, and he was the first to strike without giving the opponent any chance to pay back. Fu Tingzhou was just surprised that Lu Heng could do this for her.
Fu Tingzhou thought, because Jin Yiwei is different from others, Jin Yiwei can't form a party, so Lu Heng needs to marry a powerless wife; Lu Heng has been alone for many years, maybe he is too lazy to choose, just find someone to act for him...
Fu Tingzhou thought about so many reasons, but he didn't want to admit that Lu Heng was more courageous than him. Lu Heng dared to abandon everything to marry her, and lead her to the front of the people generously, while Fu Tingzhou looked ahead and looked back, and he had too many last resorts in his heart.
Fu Tingzhou once believed that Lu Heng deliberately deceived Wang Yanqing in order to retaliate against him, and all Lu Heng's actions were meant to be exploited. That's why Fu Tingzhou dared to rob Wang Yanqing. He was sure that after Wang Yanqing learned the truth, he would come back with him.
But if Lu Heng also moved his heart, how would Wang Yanqing choose?
Fu Tingzhou didn't dare to think about it.
Fu Tingzhou sat calmly in the eyes of many people. He seemed calm and composed, but he didn't hear what Chen's and the others were saying at all. Finally, Fu Tingzhou felt that it was enough time to greet the elders. He got up and said, "I just returned to Beijing, and there are still many things to take care of. I will retire first, grandmother and mother forgive me."
Mrs. Tai and Mrs. Chen nodded. They were talking about letting Fu Tingzhou do the right thing. In fact, they knew in their hearts that he was doing it for Wang Yanqing.
Chen Shi sighed, not without regrets in his heart. If I knew today, why not let them get married in the first place? But it's too late to say anything now. Chen only hopes that after Hong Wanqing passes the door, Fu Tingzhou can come out slowly.
Fu Tingzhou was walking in Zhenyuan Hou's mansion, and the wind and snow swept behind him, without showing any affection. Fu Tingzhou walked aimlessly for a while, and helplessly realized that he was circling her former yard.
I can't see it, but I can't leave it.
Fu Tingzhou stood in the snow for a long time until a thick layer of snow accumulated on his shoulders. He finally convinced himself to try again.
Maybe the last time.
Even if she was going to go to another man, Fu Tingzhou hoped that at least it was the decision she made when she was fully awake.
Chapter 98 Wedding
The biggest event in the capital now is probably that Jin Yiwei is directing Tongzhi Lu Heng's wedding. Nobles, whether their husbands or young ladies, get married early, but Lu Heng procrastinated until he was in his twenties, and there was not even a famous woman beside him. Even with the element of filial piety to his father, there were still rumors in the court. Less gossip.
Originally, everyone had assumed that there was something wrong with Lu Heng's health. Who would have thought that after Lu Heng's filial piety, he suddenly announced the marriage news, and all the people who could be named in the capital received invitations.
Lu Heng's move was very abrupt, and all forces were speculating about where his wife came from and what impact it would have on the situation in the future. Everyone was busy speculating about the mysterious prospective Mrs. Lu, and the rumors about Lu Heng not holding up, not liking women, etc., were self-defeating.
Wang Yanqing didn't know the outside world's speculation about her, she was concentrating on preparing for the wedding. A woman should marry from her parents' family. Both Wang Yanqing's parents died. In order to make the wedding look good, Lu Heng bought a house in the capital in her name. Three days before the wedding, Wang Yanqing moved from Lu's house to another courtyard. She got married from here on the wedding day, and after the wedding, she could justifiably move into the Lu Mansion.
Because it was a temporary transitional house, Wang Yanqing didn't care, and everything in the house was completely delegated to Lu Heng's staff. Although this was a private residence that only lasted for three days, Lu Heng was more devoted to this property than his own mansion.
There is no other reason, but thanks to Fu Tingzhou.
With his eyes closed, Lu Heng could guess what Fu Tingzhou wanted. The wedding was imminent, and the Lu residence could not penetrate. The three days when Wang Yanqing moved out temporarily was the best chance to do it. Lu Heng sifted and sifted through the people in the house, using familiar faces to communicate with each other, and not a stranger could come in. There were also many guards outside the house.
Lu Heng protected Wang Yanqing tightly, and under his strict guard, these three days finally passed without any danger. In the blink of an eye, it was the wedding day.
Wang Yanqing was called up shortly after closing her eyes. The maids waited on her to bathe and change her clothes, put on white linings, and then five or six people surrounded her and tossed her with makeup. From outside, Lu Heng invited Quanfu people, whose parents are alive, the husband and wife are in harmony, and have both children, to comb Wang Yanqing's hair. Mrs. Quanfu held a rhino horn comb and passed through Wang Yanqing's waterfall-like long hair, singing softly in her mouth: "One Comb to the end, comb the white hair to the end, comb the white hair to the eyebrows, comb the children and grandchildren all over the ground..."
Wang Yanqing sat upright in front of the mirror. She looked at the woman in the bronze mirror with crooked eyebrows, lacquered star eyes, and flowers like peaches and plums. She felt a strange feeling. The makeup is applied layer by layer, and her eyebrows and eyes are carefully drawn. Although it is more dazzling than before, it also hides her characteristics, like wearing a gorgeous mask, beauty is beautiful. Wang Yanqing always felt unreal when he looked at it.
