At dusk, the sky was already dark, and the main door of Gu's Mansion was opened by several servants. Princess Changle's cheeks were slightly red from the smell of wine, and she walked out of Gu's Mansion and down the steps with the help of a maid.
When she was about to get on the carriage, she turned around and said to the Gu family couple who were seeing her off: "... Mr. Gu must remember that the marriage between the Gu family must be decided within three days, and Xiaoer will marry into the Gu family within a month. "
Gu Xulin bowed slightly, lowered his head and replied, "Yes, don't worry, princess."
Princess Changle was satisfied that her goal was achieved, and she did not want to offend her future in-laws to death. She lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, I am an extremely reasonable person. I really can't see my beloved daughter at home today, so sad. After this stupid move, Xiao'er will marry into the Gu family. As long as she lives well, I will never interfere in the Gu family's family affairs."
Princess Changle smiled helplessly, as if she were a loving mother: "My Xiao'er's birth is unique among the many noble girls in the capital. If she hadn't liked it, I wouldn't have been able to defeat the child, and I wouldn't have fought with each other today. .”
The words were threatening and tempting at the same time. Gu Xulin listened calmly. He didn't look away until the carriage of Duke Qi's mansion was far away and slowly straightened his back.
He whispered to his wife beside him: "Go and prepare the generous gift. Early tomorrow morning, come with me to the Wei Mansion to plead guilty."
"Master," Mrs. Li whispered, "do you want to tell Ran'er?"
"...No," Gu Xulin sighed, "I'll talk to him after the marriage in the Wei Mansion has been cancelled."
………………
On the carriage of the Qi Mansion, Princess Changle seemed to be drunk in the Gu Mansion. She leaned crookedly on the shoulder of her consort and said angrily: "Why didn't Qi Lang say a word today?"
Qi Shizi said: "Your Highness has his own opinions, I don't need to do anything more."
He sat upright, and his wife on his shoulder tried to tilt several times but never reached out to help her, or even moved his brows.
Princess Changle raised her eyes to look at his cold side glance, and felt that her husband's heart was as strong as iron. She had been covering him up for more than ten years, and even when her children were about to get married, she still didn't care about him.
Now even the marriage of their eldest daughter was indifferent to him.
Princess Changle was born noble and had a spoiled and arrogant temperament, but she was tender towards him. Because she loved him, the whole family of Duke Qi's family fell in love with him, but what she got in exchange was such a lukewarm marriage.
Everyone knows that she lives a wanton life and never fails to get anything, but who knows...
Princess Changle sneered in her heart, either unwillingly or resentfully. She reached out her hand and touched the man's face beside her, then raised her head and leaned towards him.
Prince Qi reached out to put his hand on her shoulder to stop her, but Princess Changle held her wrist and clasped her fingers together.
She seemed to be completely drunk, her lips and teeth intertwined, and she whispered under the influence of alcohol: "I was wrong back then, but it has been so long. Sir, please let me go, don't hold grudges against me anymore."
………………
The next day it was dark and bright, and a carriage engraved with the Gu clan emblem drove out of the side door of Gu's mansion and headed straight for the Zhongyong Hou's mansion.
As usual, Wei Hanzhang went to Jing'an Hall to pay his respects to Mr. Jiang. As soon as he stepped into the courtyard gate, Grandma Zhou came up to her and smiled at her: "It's unlucky for Miss Ninth to come. The old lady sent someone there a quarter of an hour ago." When someone came to call me, the second lady went to the main courtyard."
"Grandma sent someone to call you?" Wei Hanzhang was stunned and said, "Can you tell me what it is?"
Aunt Zhou shook her head slightly and whispered: "The person here is the most important one in the old lady's room, Aunt Wu. She is very tight-lipped and has never revealed any information."
Mrs. Hou, Mrs. Liu, is old and likes to be clean. A few years ago, she spared her daughters-in-law from spending time in the morning and dusk, and only went there on the 15th of every month to have fun. Calling Jiang over this early in the morning must have meant someone. Important things.
Wei Hanzhang frowned. Could it be that he knew that the Jiang family had arrived in the capital and became prisoners, and came to find fault with Jiang's daughter-in-law?
Just when I was thinking about whether to go and have a look, I heard Nanny Zhou say: "Girl, please go back and rest first. Madam asked you to come over for lunch and have a meal together when she left."
Since Jiang said so, Wei Hanzhang could only give up the idea of going to the main courtyard. I was thinking about something, and when I went to the next door, I had a frown on my face.
It is known that Wei Heng has a marital relationship with the Jiang family, and he does not seem to be a cruel and heartless person who would divorce his wife if something happened to his family.
Is it possible that...it's not that Wei Heng wants to divorce his wife, but that Wei Ping is afraid that he has a relative of a prison official, and is afraid that it will affect the future of the heirs in the family, so he orders his son to divorce his wife? Thinking that that day he was just looking for a doctor for Rou Niang who was seriously injured and dying at the gate of the Jiaofang Division, Wei Ping was afraid that if there was a relative of a prisoner in the family, he might actually be able to ask his son to divorce in order to protect Mingzhe. The Jiang family has been away from home for twenty years but has no children.
As for the several passages mentioned in the original work, Jiang's murder of his concubine and his divorce, but it was just a crime he wanted to incriminate.
With Jiang's character, even if her only legitimate son dies, she is not a vicious woman who would murder her concubine.
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhang's heart skipped a beat, and the more he thought about it, the more it seemed possible.
If something really happened to the Jiang family this time, she might not be able to protect Jiang, her biological mother, if she kept a low profile in the Wei family.
Fortunately... Wei Hanzhang raised his head and looked at the young man who was busy at the desk.
Fortunately, she found someone to save the Jiang family, and this Prince Xiao was the key to deciphering the plot of the original work.
As long as the Jiang family does not collapse, the Jiang family will not be dismissed.
Xiao Junzhan's senses were so sharp. The moment he was looked at by her, the hand holding the pen paused.
He didn't look away for a long time. He suppressed the trembling in his heart, raised his head and looked sideways at the girl by the window and smiled slightly: "Why are Ran Ran looking at me all the time?"
"..." Wei Hanzhang's ears turned red, "Who's looking at you? I'm just thinking about something."
"Really?" Xiao Junzhan raised the corners of his lips and looked at her, and received an angry glare from the girl.
The weather was bright today, and the shadows of the trees outside the house came in along the window sill. The sunlight shone on her through the layers of tree shadows. She sat in the mottled shadows and looked at him with lively eyes.
At this time, Wei Hanzhang was simply glowing in Xiao Junzhan's eyes.
He stared at it in a daze, and even the ink from the tip of the pen dropped on the memorial. He did not come back to his senses, as if he was possessed.
Wei Hanzhang saw the man's unconcealed eyes, and heat spread from the tips of his ears to his face, as if his butt was on fire. He couldn't stay in this room for a moment longer.
She got up in a hurry, said something about something at home, came back in the afternoon, and walked out almost at a trot.
It wasn't until the person disappeared that Xiao Junzhan suddenly came back to his senses. He slowly put down the pen in his hand. After being silent for a long time, he still couldn't hold it back, and his lips curved again.
Ning Hai, who was guarding outside the house, saw Wei Hanzhang running out with a blushing face. He thought that his master had finally enlightened and understood how to be frivolous. After entering the door quietly, he saw a doting smile on his face. Great relief in my heart.
Sure enough, after being alone in a room for so many days, His Highness was born so elegant and handsome, even if the girl from the Wei family was the reincarnation of a wooden pole, she would have started to have some romantic feelings.
