Chapter 9:
Sanxi was shocked by her daughter's boldness, and after thinking about it, everyone in Beijing now knows that her daughter is in love with Prince Wen, so the girl's statement of lovesickness seems reasonable.
Miss Li's family has always been at odds with her own girl, and I also know that inviting a girl to the flower fair will definitely not be a good thing. Other people's servants are coming fiercely, and she can't destroy the prestige of her own girl.
"Mum, you've seen my girl, and you know what's wrong with my girl. Why don't you hurry back and tell your girl? Could it be that you want to stand here and get a taste of my girl's illness?"
What the **** is sickness.
I've heard of being happy, but I've never heard of being sick.
That old woman has some face in the Li family, but when she came, she looked down upon the small family of the Ye family. She claims that she is the mother-in-law of the Taishi Mansion, and she is much more respectable than the servants of the Ye Mansion.
Just now when she saw the Ye family's family, she felt a bit contemptuous. Originally thought that the people of the Ye family would not compliment her for holding her, but unexpectedly they would not even let her in.
what!
Not to mention sickness, she doesn't even want to be touched by Ye family's happiness.
"Miss Ye's sickness is not for slaves, our Li family is a well-behaved family."
"What does this mother mean, our Ye family is not a well-behaved family?" Ye Ping sneered. "In this case, why did your girl come to send me posts?"
The woman was speechless, her old face flushed with embarrassment, she hastily dropped a polite word about Miss Ye taking good care of her illness, and left in a half-baffled, half-anxious manner.
She was angered at Ye's house, so when she went back, she would add fuel and vinegar.
Li Bizhu yelled at Ye Ping for not knowing what to do, and secretly liked that Ye Ping was arrogant, uttering such shameful words, the reputation of the girl's family was completely forgotten.
The Li family was attached to the Duke's Mansion, so such news was sent to the Wen family immediately. Wen Ruyu heard the vivid description of the servants of the Li family, and her beautiful face was clouded.
What a lovesickness!
This is looking at life and death to entangle the second brother.
Such an ignorant and wishful-thinking idiot still wants to climb into their Wen family. A fool should be married to an old bastard, and that marriage must be settled quickly.
"Mother, listen to what nonsense she is talking about. A good girl, she has no shame and no regard for decency, and obsessively clings to men without restraint. If such a person stays in Beijing, he will only bring trouble to his parents and brothers. It's better to go early Marry outside Beijing, out of sight, out of mind."
Wang Chengjun sighed quietly, "That's the reason, but your fourth uncle and fourth aunt are too careless. Then what kind of family is the Zhao family, and what kind of a good match is it? It's a pity that they were blinded by wealth and honor, and they didn't care about it." gone."
"Master Zhao is a bit older, but he is a fourth-rank official. With Ye Ping's background, she can be considered as a benevolent person to be able to get into such a marriage."
"Wealth is so easy to ask for, I hope they can get what they want. Ye's family has a lot of things these days, so don't bother Pingniang if you have nothing to do, let her get married with peace of mind."
Wen Ruyu said yes, Xindao's mother was too kind. It's also fortunate that he has such a temperament, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to catch my grandmother's eyes.
While the mother and daughter were talking, the Li family had spread the matter everywhere, wishing that everyone in Yongchang City knew what Ye Ping had done, spurned her and cursed her.
…
Juqian Palace.
Emperor Jing Qing invited his nephew to sit beside him, showing no pretensions of the emperor at all. Eunuchs and palace people are used to this, and no one in the entire palace knows that His Majesty loves Prince Wen the most, more than all the princes.
Wen Yu's mother, Princess An and Princess Chang, are the elder sisters of Emperor Jingqing. Empress Dowager Xiao Yixian left early, and His Majesty was brought up by Princess An and Princess Chang. The two siblings have a deep relationship.
If there hadn't been for the eldest princess' plan for many years, the throne would not be the turn of the twelfth prince Jing Qing. Emperor Jingqing respected the eldest princess and raised his nephew after the eldest princess passed away, just like the eldest princess did back then.
There is a seventeen-year age difference between uncle and nephew, and it is not father and son who have kissed father and son.
"Yu'er, I heard that recently a bold girl expressed her heart to you in public, is there such a thing?"
This matter has already been spread in Beijing, so it is impossible for Emperor Jing Qing not to know about it.
Wen Yu said: "There is indeed such a thing."
When Emperor Jing Qing heard this, his eyes flashed.
There is no better way to know a son than a father, a child raised by himself knows it himself. Although the older the nephew was, the deeper he became, and it was even more difficult to see through recently, but in Emperor Jing Qing's heart, this child was always the pink dumpling he held in his arms.
His softest side was given to this child, just like what Huang Jie had done to him before. For him, the imperial sister had to do everything in this deep palace, and refused to marry despite countless slander and gossip. It wasn't until the year when he ascended the throne as emperor that Huang Jie went out of the palace to build a mansion and recruited the youngest son of the Wen family as her son-in-law.
At that time, Huang Jie was already in her thirties, fully nine years older than the youngest son of the Wen family.
Sister Huang spent so much time and energy in those years that her body was already empty. When it came to production, it was finally impossible to survive. He remembered the oath he made while kneeling in front of the imperial sister's bed while hugging his newborn nephew.
He will protect the only bloodline of Huangjie, just like Huangjie protects him.
"Yu'er, your twenty-second birthday will be next month. Should you marry a wife and have children to comfort your mother's spirit in heaven?"
"Uncle, I'm not in a hurry."
"You are not in a hurry, uncle is in a hurry. When I was your age, the First Prince was born."
"When the eldest prince was born, my uncle was twenty-five to six months old."
Emperor Jing Qing was at a loss for words for a while, the child's strict temperament really followed the emperor's sister. At the beginning of his accession to the throne, the court was still a little chaotic, and the courtiers stood in line too early, so he didn't let a prince be born in the harem in those years.
"You are not married yet. I got married at the age of sixteen, much earlier than you."
"yes."
Emperor Jing Qing had nothing to say, and every time he mentioned this issue, he always left it alone. He could only look for something to say, and asked, seemingly unintentionally, "I remember that Mr. Ye, he seems to be called Ye Geng, the second place in the seventh year of Jingqing. The champion in that session was Pei Qinghe, who later became King Zhang The son-in-law of my son-in-law. I had hesitated at the time, the papers are the same as the two, and Ye Geng's difference is that he is not as good-looking as Pei Qinghe."
If all the students in the world know that appearance is also one of the considerations to determine the top three in the imperial examination, I don't know how to feel.
Wen Yu said: "Your Majesty has a good memory."
Jing Qing almost choked, he really missed the soft little man in the past, even though he looked mature at such a young age, he could still be amusing at least.
"Master Ye looked at a polite and prudent person, and didn't know how to raise his daughter. He actually taught such a daughter who disregarded the world's etiquette. I heard that the Ye family was discussing marriage with the Zhao family. I didn't know that the Ye family When did you catch up with the Zhao family?"
The emperor's mind is the most taboo of courtiers forming cliques for personal gain.
He noticed the emperor's aura that he unconsciously brought out, and quickly adjusted it. "Just now I heard the news that the girl is sick, because of lovesickness for you, Yu'er."
Wen Yu's expression didn't change a bit.
Emperor Jing Qing felt a little bored, this child really didn't know what it meant to entertain relatives in colorful clothes. Such a lonely temperament can also make the girl lovesick, thanks to this face that looks like the emperor's sister.
"You, you, how come you don't have any kindness? I heard that you kicked the girl several feet away that day. Is there such a thing?"
"There is no such thing."
"Oh?" Emperor Jing Qing became interested again, "So you didn't throw him out, but let the girl hold you?"
Wen Yu was silent, he really didn't do anything at that time.
Emperor Jing Qing excitedly changed his sitting position, where was the majesty of the emperor well known to all the officials. "Yu'er, tell me, you didn't throw her out, is it because that girl is very beautiful?"
In front of Wen Yu's eyes unconsciously appeared an extremely gorgeous little face, pretending to be pitiful and cute, saying love words that made people blush with shame.
If it is said to be beautiful, it is not peerless. But there was an indescribable contradiction in that little girl, she seemed to have no scheming to see everything at a glance, but she concealed a lot of tricks and changes in her appearance.
His silence aroused Emperor Jing Qing's interest, and he said two nice words. "It seems that the woman did have a good-looking appearance, which actually moved you, Yu'er. It's a pity that her status is too low to be the princess of the county. If you really like it, you might as well bring her into the mansion earlier. Give her a position like a wife."
Wen Yu recalled how many times his uncle wanted to marry him in the previous life, but he refused them all. Later, when my uncle mentioned his marriage, he sighed, and before he died, he said that he was most worried about him, and the most regrettable thing was that he could not see him get married and have children.
"It's not love."
"I have never seen you being so special to any woman. I think this woman is different from others to you. Why don't you enter the mansion first and get along with each other slowly for a while, maybe as time goes by, it's unknown if you will fall in love with each other after a long time." .”
Wen Yu was silent.
Emperor Jing Qing was extremely disappointed and waved him back.
After he left the palace gate, his aura of restraint widened. After getting on the horse, he galloped away, and the sound of the horse's hooves sounded like a reminder in the middle of the night.
In the cold wind, his eyes were as dark as dark.
That little girl actually said that she was lovesick because of him.
Ah.
