Chapter 119 Bamboo Basket Water 3

Xia Zhihan left the temple and went directly to the prince's house without returning to the prime minister's house. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the door, he was told that the prince was not in the house. Xia Zhihan looked at the bodyguard's contemptuous appearance and became unhappy. Even if he was dismissed, he was still the young master of the prime minister's mansion. These low-looking slaves. It's really abominable.

Just as he was about to argue, he heard the sound of the carriage stopping. Xia Zhihan turned his head and saw that it was the prince who had just come out of the carriage.

Xia Zhihan was happy and hurried forward, "See Your Highness!"

Changsun Ye looked at it doubtfully, "Are you?"

Xia Zhihan raised his head and said with a smile, "Your Highness, I'm Xia Zhihan."

When Changsun Ye saw Xia Zhihan's appearance, he knew his identity. He was surprised and a little surprised. A few days ago, he went to the Prime Minister's mansion to discuss the marriage. Xia Chuanyuan sent someone so soon?

"Oh, it's the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. What's your business?" Changsun Ye remembered what Zhener had just told him, so he didn't care about Xia Zhihan.

Xia Zhihan smiled and bowed his waist and said, "Your Highness, it's not convenient to talk here, can you..."

Changsun Ye turned his head, looked at Xia Zhihan's expression, and nodded, "Come in."

The two entered the prince's mansion together. Changsun Ye changed his clothes and came out of the inner room. Xia Zhihan quickly put down the teacup and stood up from the position. Changsun Ye sat aside and picked up the teacup and said, "I don't know what's wrong with me?"

Xia Zhihan smiled and stepped forward and said, "I heard that His Royal Highness is interested in marrying the prime minister's house. This time, I came here for this matter."

Changsun Ye became very interested, "Oh? I don't know what progress the eldest son has made?"

Xia Zhihan smiled and said, "Your Highness also knows that the unmarried woman in the house is only the fifth sister, but the fifth sister is very stubborn. I'm afraid it will be very tricky if His Royal Highness marries back."

Changsun Ye touched his chin, "What about according to the eldest son's opinion?"

When Xia Zhihan saw Changsun Ye's expression, he was happy and hurriedly said, "Although I was dismissed by the emperor, he is still the eldest young master in this house. If His Royal Highness is willing to marry his younger sister, then..."

Xia Zhihan deliberately didn't finish his words and left half of the suspense for Changsun Ye.

Changsun Ye was shocked. Originally, he was not in a hurry about this matter, but now there is news from Jingfei that his father is about to die, and even the tiger charm has to be taken out and passed on. The father has no intention to pass it on to himself. If it hadn't been given to anyone, everyone would have taken the throne with the tiger charm.

Changsun Ye felt a little depressed. If he could become an accomplice with the Prime Minister's Mansion, he would have a better chance of winning. Although Xia Zhihan was dismissed, he was still the only heir of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Now he has come to his own to ask for cooperation. Why didn't he agree?

Thinking of this, Changsun Ye couldn't help laughing, went down to help Xia Zhihan, and said, "Why should you be so polite? He will be a relative in the future. You should always be casual when you get along with him."

If you say so, you will agree.

Xia Zhihan narrowed his eyes with a smile and arched his hands repeatedly, "The prince is polite."

The next day, Xia Mengning was standing in front of the window copying the post. She saw Jiu'er rushing in from the outside. Xia Mengning smiled and said, "What's the matter? I haven't gone out these days. You are in a hurry to run to my room every day. Tell me, what's the matter this time?"

Jiu'er ran in and pointed to the door, "Miss, miss, go out and have a look, Prince... Your Highness is here..."

Xia Mengning was puzzled in her heart. She continued to write without raising her head and said, "The prince came to the house. He's not looking for me. What am I going out for?"

Jiu'er stamped her feet anxiously and shouted, "Oh, miss, the prince ordered someone to come to the house with the bride price."

Xia Mengning's hand, who was practicing calligraphy, shook her hand and said in surprise, "I'm looking for a job? Who is the prince going to hire?

Jiu'er seemed to finally be satisfied with Xia Mengning's expression. She reached out and took the brush in Xia Mengning's hand and put it on the table. She took Xia Mengning's hand and said, "Miss, don't write it. Many people are watching outside. Let's go and have a look."

Xia Mengning hurriedly changed her clothes and went out of the door of Zhuzhi Garden with Jiu'er.

When I walked to the front yard, there were really a lot of people gathered. Many little girl was pointing around the box wrapped in red paper, surrounded by a chattering sound.

Xia Mengning was puzzled. Looking around, she saw Xia Mengran looking at the bride price in the center with a calm face, with a slightly disdainful look.

It's not Xia Mengran, is it Xia Mengyou?

Xia Mengning was wondering when she saw her eldest grandson Ye and Xia Chuanyuan coming out of the room. Behind her was Xia Zhihan.

Changsun Ye walked to the front and turned around and said, "In this way, it's time for the Prime Minister to prepare more."

Xia Chuanyuan couldn't see the joy and anger on his face, but nodded faintly.

Changsun Ye turned around and walked out. Xia Zhihan hurried forward to see him off. Xia Chuanyuan looked at the bride price in the yard, frowned and said, "It's all scattered."

Everyone dispersed, but Xia Mengning stood still. Xia Chuanyuan saw her, whispered a few words to Xiao Liuzi beside him, and saw Xiao Liuzi walking towards Xia Mengning.

"Miss San, the master is calling you."

Xia Mengning listened and looked at Jiu'er beside him, and the two walked forward together.

Entering the room, seeing that Xia Chuanyuan had already sat in the top position, Xia Mengning was puzzled, but still saluted first. Xia Chuanyuan waved his hand, "No, you can also see that the prince came to hire in person and asked us to marry a young lady as a side concubine."

Xia Mengning listened and asked, "I don't know who it is?"

Xia Chuanyuan raised his head and said slowly, "It's your eldest sister."

Xia Mengning was stunned. The so-called guess at the beginning but couldn't guess the end. That's it. In any case, she didn't expect that the prince was going to marry Xia Mengxi.

Xia Chuanyuan shook his head, "Although the prince is not valued by the emperor, he is also the prince anyway. Now that you have a marriage contract with the Dingxi Palace, how can we marry another daughter to the Prince's Mansion?"

Xia Chuanyuan said, and his eyebrows frowned tightly.

Xia Mengning covered the shock in her heart and said slowly, "Dad, this matter is by no means done by the prince. According to her daughter, I'm afraid there are too many twists and turns."

Xia Chuanyuan was already afraid and didn't want to stand in the team too early, but as the prime minister, he was the first choice pulled by all forces. It was really more difficult to be alone than climbing to the sky.

Xia Mengning sighed and said, "Dad, you can only do this now. If you don't follow the prince's order, I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Xia Chuanyuan weighed it in his heart and knew that it was difficult to ride a tiger now. The prince's movement today forced him not to agree. Forget it, let's conform to nature.

Xia Zhihan sent Changsun Ye away. When he returned to the room, he saw that Xia Mengning was also there. He was a little proud and couldn't wait to show off.

"Dad, let the child pick up his sister in the afternoon. Anyway, the marriage has been decided now. If you still let your sister in the nunnery, I'm afraid it will be affected if it reaches the ears of His Royal Highness."

Xia Chuanyuan was upset. He thought that the prince's side should also be taken care of, so he nodded randomly, "Go ahead. You don't have to call me when you come back. Just go back to Fangfei Garden and wait for marriage."

With that, Xia Chuanyuan stood up and walked into the inner room.

Xia Mengning was stunned. She knew that a lot of things must have happened during the period when she hadn't gone out in the house. Many things were beyond her expectation. Just like today's incident, she didn't notice it at all.

Thinking of this, Xia Mengning also stood up and went out of the room with Jiu'er. Xia Zhihan followed and said with a smile, "Isn't the third sister upset when she heard that the prince is going to marry the eldest lady?"

Xia Mengning is funny in her heart. Can the prince be regarded as a good match?

Thinking about it, Xia Mengning turned around and looked at Xia Zhihan with a smile and said, "The eldest sister can finally come out of the temple. It's too late to be happy for her sister. How can she be dissatisfied?"

Xia Zhihan looked at Xia Mengning's smile and restrained his expression and said, "It's better to be like this. It's not the past. If the third sister still wants to do something, I'm afraid it's not as simple as before."

Xia Mengning listened and covered her mouth and smiled, "The eldest brother's words are not good. If the eldest brother feels that his sister is doing something, he will ask the eldest brother to take a look at himself first. I'm afraid that the matter of the prince marrying the eldest sister is not so simple. If the younger sister is willing, I'm afraid that the eldest sister will not be so easy to marry. If the eldest brother wants to have a try, Just say one thing, I have learned a lot from my elder sister!"

After saying that, Xia Mengning looked into Xia Zhihan's eyes and smiled deeply.
