The eldest prince had sent several invitations to pay homage, but was rejected by Xiao Tingyi on the grounds of physical discomfort. Today, he appeared in front of the Wei family. He felt a little uneasy, but when he saw that Duke Wei didn't look proud,
With such an expression, it was impossible to guess for a moment whether the two of them had reached any consensus.
So he asked tentatively, "Uncle Huang is here today also for the happy occasion of Xiaojiu and Miss Wei?"
The marriage decree has been issued and will be sent to the Wei Mansion soon.
Everyone present was someone who knew the news earlier, so no one was surprised.
"The Duke of Guo got a new chessboard made of warm jade. I just came here to open my eyes."
I'm not here to congratulate you, that's fine.
The eldest prince relieved the worry on his face, and there was a desire to please again in his eyes, "I have long known that the emperor likes to collect all kinds of chessboards, and my house has just received a pair of suction chessboards made of meteorite iron.
, it is a bit interesting. If the emperor is interested, his nephew will come to his door for engagement someday. What do you think?"
Come again? Follower Yang Zhao looked calm on his face, but in his heart he sneered at these royal relatives.
If it weren't for the fact that their prince had so many troops, would these so-called nephews still come to see him?
He wiped away the disdain in his eyes, lowered his head and followed Xiao Tingyi without making any response.
Xiao Ting glanced at the eldest prince playfully and said lightly, "I'm interested."
The eldest prince frowned, was he agreeing or not agreeing? He couldn't tell for a moment, but the ninth prince didn't like to see such a scene of hypocrisy and coercion, so he interrupted loudly.
"Grandpa, I heard that there are a lot of fine wines stored in the house. I came here today because I wanted to try them, especially Zuihun. I have heard of them for a long time but have never had the opportunity to taste them."
The topic was changed by him, so it was not easy for the eldest prince to follow up and ask further questions.
The Sixth Prince has always been accommodating. As a prince whose mother's family has little power and who is not favored, he naturally can only follow suit.
"I heard that there are only ten jars of drunken souls left in the world, but they were brewed by Du Zui, the wine sage of the previous dynasty. If I can taste it today, it will be a blessing for the little king."
The tone of voice was like a breeze blowing on the face, which actually eased the atmosphere of coming and going.
Wei Lanxuan suddenly saw that her grandfather had brought Uncle Ding Wang here, and she felt a little upset.
A few days ago, my grandfather had a long conversation with her.
The Wenliang family is now under the influence of the Weiguo family, and their daughter will naturally marry to increase the power of the Ninth Prince's party.
Therefore, the two girls dressed up in a grand manner today, and among the many guests they invited were the people they would marry in the future.
It's just that grandfather suddenly invited this person again. Could it be that he wanted Wen Yuwei or Liang Luo to spend some time on him?
Thinking of this, Wei Lanxuan said, "Excuse me, my uncle and your highnesses, please wait a moment. I'll go get the wine right now.
After that, he and Duke Wei looked at each other, nodded and saluted, and left the waterside pavilion.
Wen Yuwei didn't expect to see Prince Ding on such an occasion. She was quite excited and her cheeks became a little shy.
Even if the other person is destined to be a person, she doesn't care. Zuo is just marrying for power. Since they are all married, why not find a way to marry someone with a powerful position that no one can underestimate?
When I think about Wei Lanxuan and others being respectful to him, if I can become Princess Ding, I am afraid that others will fawn over me at banquets in the future.
The more I thought about it, the more angry I felt, and the eyes he looked at Prince Ding were filled with fire.
Not long after walking out of the waterside pavilion, Yue Jian, the maid beside Wei Lanxuan, looked around and whispered in her ear that no one was around.
"Master Liang has been sent back to the wing, Miss, there is no need to worry."
Worried? Wei Lanxuan smiled bitterly, in what capacity could the two of them worry about each other.
A son-in-law who will soon be the son-in-law of Xu Ge's hometown, and a marriage chess piece who is about to marry into the royal family. The fondness he had when he was young can only be buried in the bottom of his heart and become a bitter memory of the past.
"The decree of marriage will be sent soon. From now on, I will go back to the bridge with him, and the past will be nothing more than a flashy dream. Don't mention it again in the future. And you should also be careful and don't let it happen.
It’s only when people take advantage of it.”
"My slave knows."
Yue Jian was well aware of the affection between the two, but also knew that this affection could not see the light of day, otherwise she, the girl who helped deliver the token, would be the first to die, so she kept her mouth tightly closed and did not dare to say a word.
The master and servant walked towards the outside of the water pavilion. As soon as they passed through a rockery, they saw Bai Sihan's sneaky figure, hurriedly heading towards the Mufeng Pavilion.
She was a little suspicious in her heart. This girl had just made it too obvious. Didn't she just want to climb a high branch by stepping on her? Wei Lanxuan wanted to see that she wanted to climb up to the young master in the mansion again this time!
So he motioned to Yue Jian to walk more slowly, and the master and servant followed quietly.
As expected, a tall man stood in the Mufeng Pavilion.
Wearing a long aqua gown and a silver-grey fur cloak, he complemented the bright moonlight and the clear breeze.
Bai Sihan looked at the figure and felt secretly happy in her heart. Mr. Wen must also be interested in her, otherwise the two of them had just separated and now they were secretly telling her what she was doing. He might be interested in her.
He was so overwhelmed with joy that he didn't realize for a moment that the person was not Wen Mengsheng, but the young master of the Liang family who was supposed to be resting in the side room.
The two of them have similar body shapes, and the color of the cloak they are wearing today is also similar. Bai Sihan didn't see clearly, but Yue Jian who was following Wei Lanxuan could see clearly.
She exclaimed in a low voice, "Miss, it's Mr. Liang!"
"What! Why is he here!"
Yue Jian shook her head in shock, she didn't know either.
Wei Lanxuan was furious, and before she could figure out the reason, she mentally accused the two of them of giving and receiving in secret.
You Liang Pan, the bitter behavior at the banquet made her heart ache. She also felt that God was unfair and had to let the two of them get married by chance. Unexpectedly, it was Prince Xiang.
No dream, the goddess has a heart!
Leaving her aside, these two actually met secretly in private!
Could it be that the plank road was built openly and the warehouse was built secretly?
Seeing that she has no chance here, she wants to find fun elsewhere?
The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't let go of the feeling in his heart. He picked up his skirt and walked quickly towards Mufeng Pavilion, which seemed a bit like catching someone raped.
Unexpectedly, he accidentally stepped on the dead branches and leaves on the ground. His feet slipped, and with a plop, he fell into the pool next to him, and Yue Jian also fell in with him.
"Help, help!"
Neither of them knew how to swim, and the clothes they wore in winter were heavy, so they struggled constantly when they fell into the pool.
In the Mufeng Pavilion, Liang Pan looked gloomy. When he thought that the woman he loved was about to marry someone else, he felt extremely painful inside.
He once told his father that he wanted to cancel the marriage with the Xu family, but before he could tell the reason, his father loudly scolded him and put him in solitary confinement for half a month.
He kept mentioning his late mother in his words, as if if he didn't marry Mrs. Xu, his late mother would not be able to rest in peace in the world.
