On the second floor of Hongyanxiao, Shi Fuxin stood by the window, watching Chu Yao leave with Meng Moling. She didn't look away until Shi Dinghao came in.
"Sister, why are Chu Yao here?"
Shi Fuxin: "Ask me how other people are."
This was Chu Yao's secret proposal for marriage. Shi Dinghao was surprised but not surprised by this.
Surprisingly, Chu Yao's eyesight is higher than his height. He has been delaying getting married because he wants to marry a noble girl whose family background is not inferior to that of his two previous sisters-in-law. Chu Yao of Wuchang House should probably look down on her.
It's not surprising that his sister is so good that anyone with a bit of discernment will value her.
Shi Dinghao looked at his sister, thought for a moment, and asked: "Sister, which one do you like more, Gongsun Ming or Chu Yao?"
Shi Fuxin: "Gongsun Ming has a good family background and upbringing. Chu Yao's reputation is not good, and his family background is noble enough. But with those terrible family members, this is not a plus, but a huge minus." Shi Dinghao nodded: "I also think Gongsun Ming is better than Chu Yao."
Shi Fuxin shook her head: "According to worldly standards, Gongsun Ming is much better than Chu Yao in choosing a husband. But, getting married is about two people living together, not living according to worldly standards. Whether it is good or not depends on the person.
”
"The Gongsun Ming we know today is too superficial. He is well-educated, filial, and a polite and modest young man. At first glance, everything looks good, but I feel that he is wearing a mask to show off to others. He
I don’t know what it’s like at home and in private.”
"But Chu Yao is much more real."
"I started talking about it when I met Chu Yao. He has a bad temper, but every time he gets angry, there is a reason. He is also quite arrogant, but he does not deliberately hide it. When it comes to interests, he is also very careful about it."
The more he listened, the more Shi Dinghao frowned. Just when he was about to say that Chu Yao was not a good match, Shi Fuxin said: "Chu Yao's behavior makes me feel pretty good."
Shi Dinghao's eyes widened: "Chu Yao has so many shortcomings, how can he be so good?"
Shi Fuxin looked at her younger brother: "Everyone will deliberately hide their true selves in front of outsiders. Although Chu Yao has many shortcomings, they are probably just like this in private. How can he be worse? I can do these."
Accept it and be able to handle it well."
"From the perspective of risks after marriage, the real Chu Yao has obviously lower risks than the masked Gongsun Ming."
Shi Dinghao looked at his sister: "Then you decided to choose Chu Yao?"
Shi Fuxin shook her head: "Waiting for news from Gongsun Ming, I'm already asking Luo Qiyun to inquire about Gongsun Ming's private conduct."
"Chu Yao. His family members are so miserable. He also has a cousin who grew up beside the princess."
"My pitiful cousin living under someone else's roof is naturally heartbreaking. I don't want my future husband to have elders who are difficult to get along with and a cousin who I can't worry about. Thinking about those days will make me crazy."
"Gongsun Ming's situation is unclear. Chu Yao's strengths and weaknesses are too obvious. We need to look at other people more."
Shi Dinghao felt bad and suddenly said: "Actually, Fan Mingyu is quite good." Seeing that Shi Fuxin did not speak, he continued, "Brother Fan was very good to you before."
Shi Fuxin looked at him: "Why is he so nice to me?"
Shi Dinghao saw that his sister looked indifferent and a little unsure, so he said weakly: "Brother Fan bought you food and various gadgets to please you. Isn't this good?"
Shi Fuxin suddenly asked: "How do you treat the princess well on weekdays?"
Shi Dinghao didn't expect Shi Fuxin to bring the topic to him, but he still replied: "I will buy all kinds of novel things and send them to the palace for Yong'an."
Shi Fuxin smiled: "Look, you also know how to use novel things to please the princess. The princess has lived in the palace for a long time, and everything outside the palace is novel and has never been exposed to her. You gave her what she lacked.
She naturally likes things."
"Although you and Fan Mingyu do the same thing, the food and entertainment on the street are commonplace to me and I can buy them myself, so he can't make me happy."
"If Fan Mingyu really wants to be good to me, he should stand up and express his position when his mother and outsiders say that I am not worthy of him. If he really wants to be good to me, he should make me less criticized by the world."
Shi Dinghao was left speechless again.
Time flies and the day of Dragon Boat Festival arrives.
Early in the morning, as soon as Shi's family had breakfast, people from the palace came to tell Shi Fuxin to attend the palace banquet.
In the past, if the girls in the family could enter the palace to attend the palace banquet, Shi's family would have been extremely happy, but now, Mrs. Shi and others are all in a daze.
The whole family knows that Xin Yatou doesn't want to enter the East Palace. To be honest, they don't want to get involved with the prince.
Previously, the story that the prince fell in love with girl Xin was just a rumor. No matter how big the fuss was, it could be avoided as gossip and not true.
But if the prince openly reveals his love for Xin Yatou at the palace banquet, it would be disrespectful to the royal family if the Shi family dares to refuse.
In order to protect the royal face, the emperor and royal family members would side with the prince, and officials would also criticize the Shi family.
Shi Fuxin looked at the people in the palace, somewhat silent.
There has been no clear reply from Gongsun Ming
Two days ago, Jiulang went to see Gongsun Ming. The servants of the Gongsun family said that Gongsun Ming took Princess Qingyang out to seek medical treatment.
In desperation, she had no choice but to make an appointment with Chu Yao to talk to him again. Who would have thought that Chu Yao would also go out on business?
Gongsun Ming went out, and Chu Yao also went out. They were both absent at the same time. She didn't believe it was a coincidence. It was most likely the prince who was behind it.
"Sister Xin"
Looking at the worried eyes of her family, Shi Fuxin smiled: "Grandma, mother, don't worry. I will definitely attend the palace banquet too. With her and Princess Yong'an protecting me, I will be fine." p>
When things came to a close, Shi Fuxin was not impatient. If the prince really dared to cause trouble at the palace banquet, she would have plenty of ways to silence him.
After changing her clothes, Shi Fuxin entered the palace in a carriage.
As soon as Shi Fuxin entered the palace, she was taken directly to Shoukang Palace by Eunuch Xia, who had been waiting at the entrance of the palace early. There were people from the Queen's Palace there at that time, but because of the Empress Dowager, the Queen's people could not compete with Eunuch Xia.
People.
On the way, Princess Xia moved to Shi Fuxin and said: "The Empress Dowager likes to be lively. Master Ming accompanied Princess Qingyang to greet her, so he left the two of them in the palace to chat and laugh. When the sixth girl went, it became even more lively."
When she heard that Gongsun Ming and Princess Qingyang had entered the palace, Shi Fuxin's expression changed and she withdrew the mental nail that was intended to attack the queen's head, and instead let the queen slip on her feet and fall down.
'Looking' at the chaos in Kunning Palace, Shi Fuxin silently followed Eunuch Xia into Shoukang Palace.
"My maid, please send your regards to the Empress Dowager. May the Empress Dowager be blessed with peace and happiness."
Looking at Shi Fuxin who was smiling and saluting, Princess Qingyang's eyes flashed and she glanced at her son with reluctance in her eyes.
Her son deserves the best girl in the world, so how can he marry a woman with a bad reputation and multiple relationships with other men?
She would rather lose a few years of her life than have her son marry a woman she doesn't like in order to heal her.
However, Ming'er is too filial.
After chatting and joking for a while in the Empress Dowager's Palace, Shi Fuxin and Gongsun Ming looked at each other, and then found an opportunity to leave the hall.
"Miss Shiliu, I've thought about it. Gongsun Ming is willing to ask for the girl's hand in marriage." Gongsun Ming took the initiative.
In the past two days, he did take his mother to seek medical treatment. Unfortunately, the doctor could not do anything about his mother's heart disease.
Shi Fuxin was relieved but still asked: "Master Gongsun, if you want to marry me, how will you treat me?"
Gongsun Ming looked at Shi Fuxin: "Don't worry, girl, since I married her, I will naturally be responsible for her."
In a transaction, Shi Fuxin didn't expect any love, but she still said: "You do it for your mother, and I do it to get rid of the prince. If we can't get along in the future, we can make peace."
Gongsun Ming was a little surprised. He was thinking of getting divorced before they got married. It seemed that the sixth girl didn't really like him: ".Okay!"
Seeing Shi Fuxin returning to the palace with a smile, Gongsun Ming sighed.
She has her own helplessness, and she has her own helplessness. Most people in the world are helpless.
