"Husband!" Chu Yiqing turned around and called Li Huang. Although she was not very accustomed to this title, she still had to call him like this in front of outsiders.
Li Huang quickly stood up and stepped forward.
"I have picked out the clothes for mother and sister Jinyu, but I can't make up my mind about the clothes for the concubine. Please help me take a look!" Chu Yiqing lowered his voice and said.
Li Huang nodded. To be honest, he didn't know Concubine Qing's preferences. However, seeing that Concubine Qing always wore plain clothes, and seeing that both of the clothes Chu Yiqing chose were plain and elegant, he nodded and said, "Concubine Mum will definitely know how to do it."
like!"
Seeing his approval, Chu Yiqing nodded, and ordered the shopkeeper to do it, giving two pieces to Concubine Qing, Mrs. Huangfu, Jin Yu, plus three little guys, one piece to each, for a total of nine
body.[
When choosing ingredients for Zhao Pan'er, Chu Yiqing touched the lotus root starch ingredient and couldn't put it down. Now that she has A'bao, she actually hopes that she is pregnant with a daughter and has both children. It's not a bad word, but A'bao
Now that the foundation is not stable, he still needs a brother to face it with him. As a result, Chu Yiqing is a little contradictory.
"What are you thinking about?" Li Huang asked with a smile.
Chu Yiqing quickly came to his senses and saw that Yingrun had already gone in with the shopkeeper to report the size, so he smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just think the lotus root pink color looks good. I'm afraid the shopkeeper will be too busy today. I'll wait until another day."
Make a suit for both Mai Xiang and Hua Lin!"
Speaking of Hua Lin, Chu Yiqing couldn't help laughing. When he came to the capital this time, Chu Yiqing could no longer let Hua Lin be naughty. Instead, he found a serious master to teach her chess, calligraphy, painting, and female celebrities. One day
He was busy late at night, so he could only see him during dinner time, but that was good, because Hua Lin didn’t have time to pester Ah Bao, but he could let Ah Bao concentrate on his studies!
"Okay, whenever you want to come over, I will accompany you!" Li Huang said softly, accompanying Chu Yiqing out of the shops. Suddenly, he quickly raised his eyes and saw the teahouse opposite.
A white figure dodged in. He frowned, but did not disturb Chu Yiqing's interest and continued to accompany her shopping.
Chu Yiqing also picked a few of the capital's specialties, tea and ceramics, and a few jewelry items. He was already hungry. The group was about to return to the palace, but unexpectedly they met Chu Yuan, who was all dressed in
In plain clothes, she is obviously still keeping her filial piety for Murong Leng, but standing next to her is a woman in pink clothes, with curved eyebrows, a plump figure, dark and shiny hair, and a jasper hairpin stuck in it.
She is gentle and kind, unlike Chu Yuan who is from the same family.
Chu Yuan was walking casually, but when she saw Chu Yiqing's protruding belly, she couldn't help but protrude her belly. She led the woman forward and said with a smile: "Oh, isn't this the eldest sister? Speaking of which,
, we haven’t seen each other for several years, the eldest sister is busy with things, and now she is the crown prince’s concubine. She has already forgotten that she is from the Chu family. She has been back in the capital for so long, but she just refuses to go home and have a look! "
Chu Yuan's words clearly meant that Chu Yiqing had forgotten his roots. Chu Yiqing was not upset. He grew up with Chu Yuan. Chu Yiqing knew early on that Chu Yuan had no brains and was no match for her. Although she is still in charge of
Murong Mansion, but the Murong family has already been decided by Murong Hui, and has been fully controlled by Shangguan Yu. What is left in Chu Yuan's hands is just a few small shops!
Today, Chu Yuan has long lost the capital to distract her!
Chu Yiqing smiled faintly, but before he spoke, the woman in pink clothes saluted Li Huang and Chu Yiqing and announced her family: "See the Crown Prince and Concubine Chu, the Crown Prince is auspicious, the Concubine Chu is auspicious, the slave family calls
Wu Fangting is the daughter of the Supervisory Censor’s martial arts!"
Chu Yuan was startled, obviously disgusted with the pink-clad woman's show of affection towards Chu Yiqing, and couldn't help but look back and glare at the woman.
The woman still smiled slightly.
With an expression on Li Huang's face, Chu Yiqing nodded to her lightly, not wanting to talk to Chu Yuan more, and walked sideways.
Chu Yuan was extremely angry, but with Li Huang present, she did not dare to be presumptuous, so she could only scold Wu Fangting in a low voice: "Why did you want to talk to that person?"
Wu Fangting smiled lightly and said: "Mrs. Murong was very rude to the Crown Prince and Concubine Chu just now. If the Crown Prince and Concubine Chu were to investigate further, it would be a serious crime of disrespect!"
Chu Yuan's angry eyes were on fire, and he said in a deep voice: "You have forgotten that your father is a supervisory censor, and what he does on weekdays is to specialize in playing music. But don't forget, you have offended me, and you can't even think of entering our Chu Mansion.
Door!"
Wu Fangting smiled faintly: "Don't be angry, Madam Murong. The Nu family is just reminding Madam that if someone gets caught on a trivial matter, that's all!"
Chu Yuan was speechless by her and snorted coldly. Just as he was about to say something, he saw a figure not far away and was stunned. After being stunned for a moment, she strode forward with the maid and fell down.
He left Wu Fangting and the maid beside her where they were.
Wu Fangting looked at Chu Yuan who left in a hurry, and couldn't help but sigh. She seemed to be talking to herself, and she seemed to say to the maid next to her: "Such a stupid woman, my aunt really believes that she can make the decision for the King of Chu.
The prince’s marriage?”[
Chu Yiqing walked slowly for a few steps, then looked back and asked Li Huang: "Do you know this Wu Fangting?"
Li Huang nodded: "Wu Yi is the only younger brother of Concubine Wu, who serves as the supervisory censor. Wu Fangting is his only daughter. There were rumors a few days ago that the Wu family intends to marry the Prince of Chu. Judging from the direction they are walking, it should be
The Palace of the Prince of Chu is the right one! But before, Chu Yuan and Liu Jun had a close relationship. Now it seems that after the Liu Palace lost power, the Chu Yuan took refuge in the Palace of Prince Qian!"
When Chu Yiqing heard this, he knew something in his mind. Now that Chu Huan was being valued by the emperor, the ministers in the court naturally wanted to take the opportunity to win him over, and getting married was naturally the best way! But if Chu Huan really married this Wu Fangting,
By then, Concubine Wu and King Qian will be even more powerful, which will not be beneficial to Li Huang and Abao.
When Li Huang saw her frowning and thinking, he knew that she was already interested in this matter, so he didn't say anything. After all, in his heart, he hoped that Chu Huan would get married as soon as possible. When he thought of Chu Huan's thoughts about Chu Yiqing,
, Li Huang felt a little uncomfortable.
As soon as the group of people returned to the house, Yingqian handed over a message saying that Mrs. Yang and Miss Yang wanted to come to express their gratitude for the return of the online game Emperor.
As soon as he saw the delicate and neat handwriting on the post, which did not look like it was written by a man, Chu Yiqing's mind flashed into the small face of a weak woman. Although Yang Mo'er had only met twice, his impression was not bad.
She is a person of few words, and Yang Xin is Li Huang's right-hand man. Although he had some resentment towards her in the past, if this matter is used well...
"Eldest brother has indeed reached the age of marriage a long time ago!" Chu Yiqing said calmly, "Huang, I want to propose marriage to Chu Huan!" Chu Yiqing smiled softly.
Li Huang was startled, but when he saw that Chu Yiqing seemed to have a plan, he nodded and said with a smile: "As long as you have the ability to get Chu Huan to agree, I'll do it with you!"
Chu Yiqing nodded.
The next day, Mrs. Yang brought Yang Mo'er to pay her respects. When they came, they were followed by seven or eight maids and boys, each holding a tall carved box and a large stack of brocade cloth in their hands.
In the hall, Mrs. Yang and Yang Moer bowed respectfully and said with excitement, "I have long wanted to come and thank Concubine Chu for her rescue that day, but I never found the opportunity. Today Concubine Chu is accepted by our mother."
I bow down to you!"
Chu Yiqing asked Yingrun to step forward and help the two of them up, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Yang, don't be so polite. Besides, it was just a coincidence and it was just a little effort. What's more, the prince has been relying on Mr. Yang in the court these years.
Benben, the relationship between our two families really doesn’t require any thanks!”
After hearing these words, Mrs. Yang looked a little embarrassed, perhaps thinking of Yang Xin's salute to Chu Yiqing, but she still responded and sat sideways on the chair that Yingrun brought over, while Yang Moer stood respectfully.
Behind you.
"How is Miss Yang's health? She looked a little frightened that day!" Chu Yiqing slowly raised his eyes and looked at Yang Mo'er.
Mrs. Yang hurriedly said: "I miss Concubine Chu, and she is feeling better. But I still don't dare to think about what happened that day. If Concubine Chu hadn't saved me that day, our mother and daughter would have lost their lives.
The reputation is great, Concubine Chu is the reborn parent of our mother and daughter." As they spoke, tears fell from both of them when they thought of the thrill of that day.
Chu Yiqing said quickly: "The matter is over, but later, the prince sent people to search for those bandits in the mountains, but they were not found. Come to think of it, the origin of those bandits seems a bit complicated!"
Mrs. Yang nodded and said: "My master also said that he is afraid that someone in the court knows the whereabouts of our mother and daughter and wants to take revenge. You also know that my master has been an official in the court for many years and has offended many people.
It also happened that there was something urgent in the house that day, so we hurried back, which gave the thieves an opportunity! Fortunately, we met Concubine Chu that day, and our mother and daughter escaped, so we didn’t care about Concubine Chu.
No matter how you say this, our mother and daughter will remember your great kindness throughout our lives."
After Mrs. Yang finished speaking, she pointed to the box of silk and satin brought by the maid and the boy behind her and said, "These mundane things are a token of gratitude from our mother and daughter. Please don't dislike them, Madam."
Chu Yiqing could only say: "Okay, then I will accept it, but Mrs. Yang should not be so polite in the future!"
Mrs. Yang nodded quickly, then pulled Yang Mo'er forward and leaned over to thank her.
"Okay, don't thank me again and again. At the banquet that day, Mrs. Yang also mentioned something to me. We will go back and forth as friends from now on!" Chu Yiqing smiled and asked Yang Moer to sit down together and said
: "Let's just chat casually and get close today. Anyway, I don't have many people I can talk to in this capital!"
When Mrs. Yang heard this, she also knew that it would be bad to say goodbye, so she immediately allowed Yang Moer to sit down, and looked at Chu Yiqing with eyes full of respect.[
Yang Mo'er wore a light green dress today, and she looked more and more graceful. She was not as panicked as last time. She sat there quietly, lowered her head slightly, lowered her eyes and eyebrows, looking very gentle and pleasant.
, Chu Yiqing also asked: "How old is Miss Yang this year, but she is engaged?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Yang and her daughter's smiles froze slightly, especially Mrs. Yang, who actually showed a touch of sadness on her face.
Yang Mo'er sat there and replied, "In response to Concubine Chu, my daughter is sixteen years old this year and has not... not yet been engaged. Read the full text of Daddy's Strong Genius Baby's Black-bellied Mother." After she finished speaking, she turned to look at her.
He glanced at Mrs. Yang, reached out and grabbed Mrs. Yang's hand.
Mrs. Yang sighed softly, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Before that incident, many princes and grandsons came to propose marriage. After that incident happened, there were rumors and everything, but there was no news anymore."
Even if no one from the Prince's Mansion revealed anything to the public that day, those who were interested still spread the word, and no one was willing to come to propose marriage.
Chu Yiqing frowned slightly. From this, it seemed that the matter that day was indeed done by someone thoughtful. He immediately comforted Mrs. Yang and said: "Ms. Yang looks very gentle and pleasant. She will definitely find a good family.
Those rumors in the market will slowly dissipate if you ignore them! What's more, I know best what happened that day. Miss Yang must be self-righteous and care about other people's opinions!"
When Madam Yang heard this, she was naturally overjoyed. In fact, when she came to the Prince's Mansion for a banquet that day, she deliberately brought Yang Mo'er, also for Chu Huan. Now Chu Huan is the heir apparent at a young age, and he is favored by the emperor.
, is also the eldest brother of the crown prince's concubine, and has long been the target of the ministers. At first, she was still concerned about the impact of what happened that day, but now when she heard what Chu Yiqing said, she knew it and wanted her daughter to marry him.
Chu Huan's thoughts became more active.
After Mrs. Yang took Yang Mo'er back home, she told Yang Mo'er to go back to her room to study, and she quickly went to find Yang Xin.
Yang Xin had been helping Li Huang with the Liu family's affairs in the past few days and came back very late. When he heard that his wife had invited him, he didn't go to the study and went directly to the bedroom.
"Madam, I didn't go to the Prince's Mansion to say thank you today, but something happened?" Yang Xin asked after entering the room.
In fact, since he said those words to Li Huang last time, Li Huang no longer trusts him as before. He feels a little depressed, but in his heart he thinks that he is not wrong. He did it for Li Huang and Li Guo.
Jiangshan, but since Chu Yiqing rescued his wife and daughter, and this time dredging the river and cultivating seedlings, Yang Xin felt a little relieved when he saw Chu Yiqing solved such a big thing for Li Guo.
, In addition, Mrs. Yang and her daughter have been saying good things about Chu Yiqing these days. Yang Xin is not so resistant to Chu Yiqing now, so today he heard that his wife was going to Chu Mansion with her daughter to express her gratitude, so he made preparations.
He received rich gifts, and as soon as he heard that his wife was looking for him when she came back, he hurried over.
"Concubine Chu is kind and generous. When we met for the first time at the banquet, Concubine Chu didn't have any resentment towards our mother and daughter because of what her husband said at that time. Later, she even came to our rescue.
How can we, mother and daughter, be as the master thinks!" Mrs. Yang couldn't help complaining.
Although Yang Xin was a bit foolish and straightforward, he always loved his knotted wife. Seeing her displeasure, he smiled and said, "You summoned me here in such a hurry, I thought there was something wrong!"
"There is indeed something going on, but it's a good thing!" Mrs. Yang said happily, "Today I asked Concubine Chu to talk to Concubine Chu. Concubine Chu seemed to like Mo'er very much. When I said that because of what happened last time, Mo When my son's marriage was affected, Concubine Chu comforted me, saying that she knew what happened that day best, and we, Mo'er, will be able to find a good marriage!"
When Yang Xin heard this, he was a little uninterested and said, "Maybe this is just some scene talk!"
"Sir, it's true that you are well-versed in matters in the court, but you don't know much about things at home. Now that the prince has just come back, Prince Jue and Prince Qian's people are ready to make a move. You can tell by looking at what happened to the Liu family a few days ago, and it is said that the Wu family and the The second young lady of the Chu Mansion, Mrs. Murong, has a very good relationship. I heard that the second young lady of the Chu Mansion took Wu Fangting, the daughter-in-law of the Wu family, to the Chu Mansion several times. Isn’t it because of the marriage of the crown prince of Chu? If Wu Fangting really If she marries the Crown Prince of Chu, then the Chu family may become the right-hand man of King Qian. Even if the Crown Prince of Chu cares about the relationship between brother and sister, how can the love between brother and sister be compared to the love between husband and wife? So today, I see Concubine Chu means that as long as we beg Concubine Chu, maybe Mo'er can marry into the Chu mansion! You and the Crown Prince of Chu will become the right-hand man of the prince, and will naturally assist the prince to achieve a great career! "
Yang Xin often met Chu Huan in the court, and he knew that Chu Huan was indeed a virtuous son-in-law. Marrying him would be a good destination for his daughter. However, now that Yang Mo'er has been burdened by his reputation, they originally He gave up the idea of going to the Prince of Chu's palace, and either found someone to marry, or waited until this matter passed. Now that Mrs. Yang mentioned it again, Yang Xin suddenly felt that there was hope, and said happily: "Your You mean, tell Concubine Chu what we want and ask Concubine Chu to help Mo'er?"
Mrs. Yang then nodded and said: "You finally understand the life of the devil! And I heard that although Prince Chu and Concubine Chu have the same father and mother, they are not like the same father and mother as the second lady, but they have been together since childhood. When I grow up, I have the closest relationship with Concubine Chu. I believe that if Concubine Chu comes forward, the Prince of Chu will definitely take notice!"
Yang Xin naturally hoped to have a prince as his son-in-law, and he was naturally willing, so he said: "This matter must be reported to His Highness the Crown Prince first, and we will wait for His Highness the Crown Prince's permission before we discuss it!"
Mrs. Yang nodded and said, "The prince certainly has no reason to disagree, but I'd better ask first before speaking!"
Yang Xin nodded.
After the morning court the next day, Yang Xin took an opportunity and informed Li Huang of his intentions. Li Huang knew it already, but he didn't expect that Chu Yiqing was interested in Yang Xin's only daughter, Yang Mo'er. After all, this Yang Xin was a bit stupid and straightforward, and was very concerned about Chu Yiqing's status as a member of the previous royal family. However, Yang Moer's marriage to Chu Huan was better than Wu Fangting's marriage to Chu Huan, so he said: "This is a matter of love between children, Mr. Yang." Just make the decision yourself!”
Seeing that Li Huang had no objection, Yang Xin felt even more reassured and quickly thanked him.
After Yang Xin returned home, he also asked Madam Yang and Yang Moer to go to the Prince's Mansion often. Madam Yang understood immediately and naturally responded. From that day on, she went to the Prince's Mansion every now and then. The relationship between the two families
They became more and more intimate, and on this day, Chu Yiqing finally decided to go back to the Chu Mansion.
Chu Yiqing has not been back to the Chu Mansion since the last time Chu Zhantian fell ill. He has been back to the capital for a few months now. Although he has been busy with drought relief, he has not returned even once. This time he came back suddenly.
Tian was naturally happy and asked Chu Huan to go home early that day.
Although she has no feelings for Chu Zhantian, Chu Zhantian's Hubao Hall has helped her a lot over the years. In addition, Li Huang and Abao still need to rely more on the Chu family. One more relative is better than
He treated people as enemies when they went out, so Chu Yiqing reluctantly went home and sat down, thus fulfilling his reputation of filial piety.
When Chu Zhantian heard that Chu Yiqing had returned home, he had already changed his clothes and was waiting in the hall. When he saw Chu Yiqing, he was a little excited. He quickly asked people to serve tea. His lips were buzzing. He seemed to have a lot to say, but he didn't know it all at once.
Where to start.
Chu Yiqing raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Zhantian. He hadn't seen him for several years. Chu Zhantian seemed to be much older. He was no longer as energetic as before. He was less than fifty years old and had age spots on his face, but he was still fine.
His spirit was good, and his eyes were peaceful, unlike before, where his eyes were all predatory and powerful.
"Are you feeling well?" Chu Yiqing asked first.
Chu Zhantian was startled, then nodded quickly and said: "The medicine you left behind was very effective. I have continued to exercise over the years. It is impossible for my martial arts to return to what it was before, but my body is very light!"
Even if there was an antidote for the poison that Yao gave him back then, it still had side effects. Although he had practiced diligently over the years, he had lost his body and could not make up for it. Fortunately, his heart had already calmed down and he no longer
Chasing fame and fortune in the world of politics and court, so I didn't feel it was a pity, so I accepted it calmly.
After Chu Zhantian finished speaking, he asked: "What happened when you came back this time?"
Just as Chu Zhantian finished speaking, he heard the sound of clothes changing from outside the hall, and a figure rushed in, it was Chu Huan.
"Qing'er, are you back?" Chu Huan's face was full of joy, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "I didn't have a chance to meet you last time, and then I heard that you went to Lucheng again. I was thinking of visiting the Prince's Mansion these days.
, I didn’t expect you to come!”
Chu Huan is really happy that Chu Yiqing is willing to come back. Regardless of whether the previous relationship was love or family affection, Chu Yiqing is a special existence to him that no one can replace!
