On August 18, Yinghua left the imperial city. Song Heng sent two soldiers to see her off, and Shen Wan also prepared two large carts of things.
Two days later, Princess Ren sent a message saying that she heard that Shen Wan's mother was here and wanted to visit. Shen Wan didn't think much about it, and the next day Princess Ren brought Princess Liufang to the General's Mansion.
In the main hall, the servants served tea, and Princess Ren talked to Mrs. Li very warmly. Mrs. Liu sat on the main seat and looked at it with a smile but could not say a word.
Shen Wan looked at Princess Ren who was having a lively chat with her mother, and thought to herself, it turns out that Princess Ren is such a passionate person!
"By the way, the number one scholar in your family is already eighteen, so it's time to get engaged." Princess Ren looked at Mrs. Li and said.
Shen Wan raised her eyebrows when she heard this. Could it be that Princess Ren came to visit her mother because she wanted to be a matchmaker for Ming'er? After all, she had expressed her desire to be a matchmaker for Ming'er before.
Princess Liufang picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. The tips of her ears were a little red. When she came back from the palace on the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, her mother-in-law asked her if she had a crush on Shen Zhuangyuan. She did not deny it and told her mother-in-law directly, "Shen Zhuangyuan" Ming was the person she admired, and she would be lucky to marry him. She originally thought that the mother-in-law would object, but the mother-in-law didn't say anything at the time. Within two days, she sent a message to the Song family and wanted to visit Shen. The mother of the number one scholar. When she learned that the concubine was coming to visit the mother of the number one scholar, she understood that the concubine did not object to her being with Shen Zhuangyuan.
However, she was still a little uneasy. Although her aunt also liked her very much, she was still afraid that the Shen family would object, and she was even more afraid that Shen Ming would not like her. As the most beautiful and talented woman in the Dongchen Kingdom, it was the first time that she treated herself like this. No confidence.
Mrs. Li smiled and said: "To be honest, I saw one of Ming'er's in my hometown..."
"Pa..." The sound of the tea cup falling to the ground sounded.
When everyone took a look, they saw a broken teacup lying at Princess Liufang's feet. Tea and tea leaves were spilled all over the floor, and the splash of tea even wet the hem of her skirt.
"Hug, I'm sorry, my hand slipped." Princess Liufang's face turned a little pale, and her words were hesitant.
Shen Wan knew that the princess accidentally dropped the tea cup after her mother told her that Ming'er had met her in her hometown.
She smiled and said: "It's okay, please clean up the cherries and serve tea to the princess again."
Princess Ren shook her head. It seemed that her precious daughter was really affectionate towards Shen Ming. However, when Mrs. Li said that Shen Ming had seen someone in the countryside, she dropped the tea cup in her hand in panic.
Shen Ming's current family background is still a little low compared to her Wan'er's. Although she thought this child was good before, she never had the idea of letting him be her son-in-law. But she knew that Fang'er liked him, then It's different. Their Prince Ren's Palace is already noble and powerful enough, and there is no need to consolidate anything through marriage. What she wants in this life is a pair of children, who can marry the one she loves and be happy, especially Fang. She didn't want Fang'er to be like her. Although she married the person she liked, that person brought in one aunt after another after they got married. Looking at Shen Wan, you can tell that the Shen family is not a person who likes to accept children. Concubine's family. If Fang'er marries Shen Ming, and then marries down, the Shen family will never wrong her, and they will not dare to wrong her.
Cherry cleaned up the pieces on the ground, took a rag and wiped the tea on the ground, and gave Princess Liufang another cup of tea.
"Let's continue chatting. How is that girl?" Princess Ren looked at Li and asked. She didn't believe it. Then when Shen Ming arrived in the imperial city and met so many worldly people and noble women, could he still like that country girl?
Mrs. Li nodded and said: "She looks very good and is capable, especially her embroidery work. She is very good. The flowers, plants and birds embroidered are just like the real ones. She is also famous for her filial piety throughout the country." .”
Princess Ren said in her heart: "My Fang'er is also good-looking and capable, and the female beauty is also one of the best. Not only is she filial, but she is also known as the number one beauty."
"Such a good girl, you must have fallen in love with her, right?" Princess Ren said with a smile.
"Hey..." Mrs. Li sighed and said, "What's the use of my love? I asked Ming'er to see that girl, but Ming'er didn't see her. It's useless no matter what I say."
Princess Ren: "That means it didn't work?"
"Yeah! It didn't work out. The child is older and has his own ideas. I asked him what kind of girl he likes. I helped him find it, but he didn't tell me. He said he would find it himself. His father and I didn't care. , it depends on what kind of one he can find?"
