Chapter 125 Premeditation 3
Because she was slapped in the face by Dong Wanwan, matchmaker Wang held a grudge. Since she returned home, as soon as she saw her, she said how arrogant and capricious the eldest lady of the waiter's mansion was.
Who is matchmaker Wang? She, who eats on one mouth, has ruined Dong Wanwan's reputation in the capital.
When Xia Zhihan went to Wang's matchmaker's house, he saw Wang's matchmaker covering her swollen and tall cheeks. She pointed to a group of middle-aged women around her to describe Dong Wanwan's bad deeds that day. As soon as she looked up and saw Xia Zhihan, matchmaker Wang was a little confused, but then she turned her eyes and did not look at him.
Xia Zhihan had been prepared for a long time. He walked over with a smile and shouted, "Mrsou Wang."
Such courtesy, look at Xia Zhihan's clothes. They are either rich or noble. Everyone who originally looked at the matchmaker Wang and walked away. The matchmaker Wang stood up and said with slanted her eyes, "Oh, isn't this the young master of the prime minister's mansion? What's the wind blowing today? Why did the young master come to us? La"
The sourness in the tone is really not what ordinary people can stand.
Xia Zhihan nodded his head, "I'm here today. I have something important to discuss with the matchmaker. I don't know if I can talk with you?"
Matchmaker Wang didn't pay attention to Xia Zhihan, but turned around and walked into the yard. Xia Zhihan hurriedly followed.
Sitting on the pony in the yard, Mrs. Wang said, "What's the matter, young master? The old man has nothing to say to the young master.
Xia Zhihan didn't say anything, but took out a small red wooden box from his arms and handed it to matchmaker Wang.
At a glance, the matchmaker Wang immediately stood up. No wonder she was born to take advantage of her. Now when she sees someone giving herself something, I'm afraid she is very happy.
Seeing her take over the mahogany box, Xia Zhihan smiled and said, "Open it and see, and you will know if we can continue the conversation."
Matchmaker Wang opened the letter suspiciously and was immediately dazzled by the golden piece inside. It was full of a box of small gold ingots. Xia Zhihan saw the expression of Matchmaker Wang, and there was a trace of disdain on his face, but he still asked with a smile, "What does Matchmaker Wang think?"
Only then did the matchmaker Wang return to her mind. 'Bada' suddenly covered the box, afraid that Xia Zhihan would regret it again.
"The young master's inner room, please."
Xia Zhihan didn't say anything and walked into the inner room with Mrs. Wang.
Entering the room, Mrs. Wang made tea attentively. Xia Zhihan reached out and took it, but put it on the table on one side. Looking at Mrs. Wang and said, "I'm here today. There is something I want you to help."
Matchmaker Wang nodded hurriedly, "It's easy to say, the young master just say it."
Xia Zhihan said a few words softly, and saw that matchmaker Wang's face changed. Xia Zhihan stood up with a smile and hugged his fist. "This matter seems to be more difficult for others, but for you, it must be as easy as his palm."
After thinking about it, Mrs. Wang didn't seem to be so difficult, so she nodded, "Okay, I'll try my best."
Xia Zhihan continued, "After it is done, there will be a reward. I hope you can do it."
As soon as Mrs. Wang heard this, she smiled and blossomed on her face. Looking at Xia Zhihan's back, she secretly analyzed in her heart that it turned out that the young master said that that day was the reason.
Since Xia Mengxi came back from being scolded by the Fang family, she basically sat in front of the window in a daze every day. Biyi served the meal and just ate a few bites. In a few days, the man gradually lost weight.
Biyi was anxious, but she couldn't exert her strength. Xia Mengxi was stubborn, and ordinary people couldn't say anything about her. Now Fang didn't care about her. Xia Zhihan didn't see anyone every day. Although Biyi was anxious, she really couldn't think of any other way.
Xia Mengxi sat in front of the window and looked at the scenery in the yard with his cheeks. Xia Chuanyuan was very reluctant about the matter that the prince came to ask for marriage this time. Seeing Xia Mengxi coming back, he naturally thought that it must have something to do with Xia Mengxi. Xia Mengxi was annoyed and hated that he did not think much at that time. He was just attracted by the bright prospects described by the eldest brother. He could think about it back, even if he mentioned it. It has been prevented, but the mother will still choose to give up herself to become a big brother. No matter what she does, this ending will not escape.
There was a sound of footsteps passing by and many people talking outside the door. Xia Mengxi stretched out his head and asked, "Biyi, who is outside?"
Biyi looked at it and said, "Miss, maidservant, go out and have a look."
Xia Mengxi nodded. After a while, he saw Biyi coming back and whispered, "Miss, it was the prince who came. He said that the empress dowager in the palace had made an order to pass the third lady into the palace."
Xia Mengxi was stunned for a moment, "Lord?" With that, he was about to get up and go out to have a look.
Biyi stretched out her hand to block Xia Mengxi's body and said with some embarrassment, "Miss, a maid went to the kitchen to have dinner. I heard from the girls in the kitchen that the third lady was married to the prince by the emperor. Even the fourth aunt was also the wife of the emperor. She said that she was born in order to get the status of the imperial concubine. It can be too low."
Xia Mengxi was surprised to hear this. Her face turned green in an instant, and her fingers on the small table tightly pinched the corner of the small table. "Xia Mengning was actually married to the prince. No wonder... Humph!"
Biyi looked at Xia Mengxi's almost crazy appearance and was a little afraid in her heart. Xia Mengxi was just angry for a while. Then the corners of her mouth rose slightly and said with a smile, "Biyi, is there any leftover crab buns yesterday?"
Biyi nodded hurriedly, "There are still a few left in the small kitchen. If the young lady wants to eat, I will heat you up."
Xia Mengxi waved his hand, "Get it hot quickly, and then find a food box to pack it."
Biyi was puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask. She immediately nodded and retreated.
Xia Mengning and Jiu'er got into the carriage from the palace together and soon arrived at the palace.
"Miss, be careful!" Jiu'er jumped out of the carriage first, and then reached out to help Xia Mengning.
At this moment, a hand stretched out and put it firmly under Xia Mengning's outstretched hand.
Xia Mengning felt strange. When she looked up, she saw Changsun Yun's gentle smile, "Let's go together."
Holding Changsun Yun's hand and getting out of the carriage, the two walked to the Empress Dowager's bedroom together. When they entered the bedroom, they saw the Empress Dowager Wu sitting on the head. Xia Mengning hurriedly fell to the ground. "The people's daughter has seen the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager's mother is happy and healthy."
Wu nodded with a smile, "Get up."
Seeing Xia Mengning stand up, Wu said again, "Give me a seat."
Xia Mengning was in a hurry and blessed, "Thank you, Empress Dowager!" With that, he sat down slowly.
Wu looked at Xia Mengning and said with a smile, "It's not a big deal for my family to call you here today. It's just that I woke up and knew that it was you who saved my family. I was very grateful, so I specially called you to the palace to have a look."
Xia Mengning lowered her head and said, "The little girl is just doing her best. The queen is full of blessings, and she will live a long life."
Wu smiled and said, "Look at this little mouth!" With that, he continued, "The emperor has also made an order. You are now a quasi-concubine. You must have no problem with the etiquette, but it's the same. I have to talk to you."
Xia Mengning stood up in a hurry, "I dare not!"
Wu took back her smile and said slowly, "Yun'er will inherit the title of the King of Dingxi in the future. Naturally, you can't be the only woman around you. After thinking about it, I chose two maids of honor with both virtue and talent to send to Yun'er. What do you think?"
With that, two women in light red palace clothes came out from behind. Changsun Yun saw it and hurriedly said, "Grandma..." Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Wu. "Don't talk yet. I'll ask Ninger."
Xia Mengning was a little angry in her heart. What did she say? What can she say? Can she still open her mouth to stop her? Xia Mengning thought for a moment and then said, "In the words of the Empress Dowager, the women who have studied since childhood are tame. The first of them is that the husband is as big as the sky, so the people dare not make the decision without authorization, and they have to see the opinions of the prince."
The so-called answer is that the answer is watertight, and he threw the ball to Changsun Yun. Wu couldn't find any loopholes, so he had to ask Changsun Yun, "In this case, Yuner, what do you think?"
Changsun Yun smiled and seemed to be very satisfied with Xia Mengning's answer. His eyebrows raised gently, "Grandma's opinion, Sun Er dares not disosure."
In this way, Xia Mengning obviously felt that the two women standing there were uncontrollably excited. Wu also smiled, "Well, this is good. A woman who knows the general is a good example."
Xia Mengning lowered her head, but curled her lips to make Changsun Yun accept it so easily. I'm afraid it's not that easy.
Sure enough, Changsun Yun continued: "Sun'er saw that the two girls were also as beautiful as flowers. It happened that the two concubines given by the emperor a few years ago were lonely in the house all year round. The grandson was always too busy to see them. That's good. The two girls went and just as companions."
Wu's face suddenly couldn't hang up. This grandson is really unruly.
Originally, I wanted to find two better women to send her to the deceased's house, but I knew that Xia Mengning was still young, but Yun'er was already eighteen years old. Ordinary man, 18 had already had a child, but Yun'er was stubborn. Since the two concubines sent by the emperor entered the door, they had not moved. They thought they could change. His heart, I didn't expect...
Looking at the two disappointed maids around him, Wu shook his head and sighed, "Okay, you go down first."
The two maids of honor dressed up happily, thinking that they would die in their son's house in a few days, but they didn't expect that they were rejected by the prince in public.
Both of them looked gloating and reluctantly retreated.
Wu was in no mood and waved his hand and said, "Well, you are always ungrateful, so I'll go with you. My family is going to rest. Kneel down."
Seeing this, Changsun Yun hurriedly knelt down with Xia Mengning. Seeing Wu's walking back, the two looked at each other and smiled and stood up.
Walking out of the hall, Changsun Yun stretched out his hand and gently squeezed Xia Mengning's hand and said with a smile, "Did you scare me just now?"
Xia Mengning smiled and shook her head.
Changsun Yun raised his eyebrows and asked in disbelief, "Really? Aren't you afraid that I really want those two women?
Xia Mengning smiled and stopped looking at Changsun Yun and said, "You won't. I believe you."
For the first time, Changsun Yun was looked at by Xia Mengning so straightly. He was a little embarrassed and curled his lips and said, "Why are you so confident?"
Xia Mengning suddenly stopped her smile and looked at Changsun Yun with an affectionate look, "My lord, I know what you mean. I'm not worried about you, just because..."
Changsun Yun was stunned. Seeing that Xia Mengning stood on tiptoe and slowly approached him, he couldn't help but breathe.
Xia Mengning squeezed her lips and smiled maliciously, "Because I've seen those two women, who are older than me, and they are not as beautiful as me."
"Puff!" Changsun Yun was amused by Xia Mengning's words. He never knew that this woman who always faced anything indifferently would have such a naughty side. Changsun Yun stretched out his hand, circled her body, put his forehead against her, and whispered, "Yes, they are not as beautiful as you. In my heart, women in the world are not as beautiful as you."
The corners of Xia Mengning's mouth were raised and a beautiful smile bloomed. The two stood on the high platform, reflecting the sunset glow, and smiling at each other.
