Yu Wenhao felt that Yuan Yongyi's words were a bit strange, and when he was about to ask, he heard Yu Wenling exclaim, "Oh my god, the third brother actually brought that woman here."
Everyone looked over quickly.
I saw King Wei wearing a blue brocade dress and black boots. He had a majestic body and an extraordinary appearance.
There was a woman beside him, wearing a brocade soft satin skirt, a fox fur cloak, a black bun, a butterfly pattern on her hairpin, gold and jade earrings, and a string of fine jade pagoda beads hanging around her neck.
, the grains are round and smooth.
However, the woman's appearance is really ordinary, her eyebrows are very short, and the tail of her eyebrows is painted on, which can be seen at a glance.
She has a flat nose, thin lips, and a square chin. If the only thing that stands out is probably her eyes.
His eyes were not big, but they were watery and a bit hazy and sad, which made me feel pity for him.
King Wei showed up with a girl whose identity was yet to be determined, which put Princess Sun in a difficult position.
The story of their couple had long been spread among the royal family, so it was unlikely that he would be so ridiculous as to marry her as his concubine.
Unexpectedly, he would now directly take her to attend King Sun's birthday banquet. Is this equivalent to announcing his determination to marry her as his concubine?
He knew that others were looking at him, and the woman seemed a little uneasy, so she subconsciously moved closer to King Wei.
King Wei held her hand and strode in without looking away.
Others ignored them, but Yuan Qingling, Yu Wenhao and others were standing in front of the corridor. If King Wei wanted to go in to celebrate King Sun's birthday, he would inevitably encounter them.
If Yu Wenhao and Yuan Qingling retreated, it would obviously embarrass the King of Wei.
Therefore, the two of them could only stand still and smile at King Wei.
"Third brother!" the two said in unison.
King Wei nodded slightly, "Are you here too?"
He said to the woman next to him: "As I know, these are the fifth brother and the fifth brother and sister."
Yu Wenhao and Yuan Qingling were both shocked when they heard this.
She is not the principal concubine, so even if she marries a junior concubine, it would be hard to call her fifth brother without any younger siblings, right?
What's more, she is still an undecided person.
The couple looked at each other, both of them dumbfounded.
But the woman knew etiquette, Fu Shen said: "I have met the King of Chu, and I have met the Princess of Chu."
Yuan Qingling could only say: "There is no need to be more polite."
King Wei glanced at Yuan Qingling somewhat unhappily, then took the woman's hand and went in.
After a while, I heard King Sun scolding him, "You're making a fool of yourself!"
Then came the righteous and stern voice of King Wei, "As long as the seventh brother reconciles, I will also propose reconciliation. When the time comes, I will marry my old friend as my royal concubine. No matter what the second brother says, the younger brother will never change his mind."
Yuan Qingling and Yu Wenhao looked at each other again, what's going on? Are they in peace?
Princess Sun quickly walked in and dragged Yuan Qingling in.
Princess Sun closed the door, glared at King Sun, and lowered her voice: "Is there anything we can't talk about tomorrow? There are all guests outside, do you want to embarrass yourself?"
King Sun was trembling with anger. He pointed at King Wei and said to Princess Sun: "Don't you ask what good thing this boy has done? He wants to divorce his wife."
Princess Sun wanted to cover his mouth, "Stop talking, are you going to shout so that everyone knows?"
Princess Sun looked back at Yuan Qingling, "Please advise the third child."
Yuan Qing Ling was dumbfounded. How could she persuade him? She was not familiar with the King of Wei at all.
The woman named Gu Zhi took King Wei's hand and lowered her eyes, "I'll go back and invite the princess to come. Please don't be angry."
King Wei actually held her waist with one hand and glared at King Sun stubbornly, "I have to have her here today. She is pregnant with my child. Even if she is not the main concubine, she is also a side concubine. If you can't tolerate her,
, just don’t recognize me as your younger brother.”
King Wei's mother was the first virtuous concubine. Not long after King Wei was born, the virtuous concubine passed away. Emperor Ming Yuan gave King Wei to King Sun's mother concubine Jing Fei to raise him. Therefore, the two brothers were very close.
.
"You..." King Sun was so angry that the flesh on his face was trembling, "You want to make my mother-in-law mad to death."
"I will explain it to the mother-in-law." King Wei pouted, "Besides, the mother-in-law will only be happy because she will have a grandson soon, so that she will not always envy the virtuous mother-in-law."
Yuan Qingling was very embarrassed when she said this. Standing here now, her level of embarrassment was second only to that of her old friend.
Yuan Qingling glanced at her, but found that she was not embarrassed at all. She was just standing quietly beside King Wei, her eyes filled with mist.
"Listen to it, what does it sound like?" King Sun was so angry that he just slapped the table.
Princess Sun had no choice but to appease King Wei, "Okay, today is your second brother's birthday. Don't make trouble here. You insist on taking her with you. The second sister-in-law has no objection, but don't shout to others that you want to divorce your concubine."
King Wei said unwillingly: "This is a fact."
Yuan Qingling couldn't bear it anymore and said: "Third brother, even if the husband and wife turn against each other, they can just resolve it privately, leaving some face and dignity for each other. Don't make it too ugly in public. I believe Third Sister-in-law didn't do anything.
Something that goes too far.”
The old friend glanced at Yuan Qingling quickly, then lowered his head and remained silent.
King Wei looked at Yuan Qingling, then at Princess Sun, and said with waning interest, "That's all, if you don't want to say it, don't say it."
Princess Sun sighed softly, she hated this old friend so much.
If it were the past, she would definitely drive her out with a broom.
But not today. There are guests here today, and she has been busy for a long time at the birthday banquet.
Because of King Wei's incident, Princess Sun lost her thoughts and felt that the significance of this birthday banquet was greatly reduced.
This year's event is so solemn because of King Sun's thirtieth birthday.
Thirty is a very important watershed in life.
More and more guests arrived, including Princess Sun's family, as well as some officials from the court and their relatives.
Prince Sun and his wife took the people in the palace out to greet them, and they were so busy that they were dizzy.
The King of Wei also took his old friend to help greet him, because everyone knew that although he and the King of Wei were not compatriots, it was appropriate for him to greet them on his behalf.
It's just that everyone treats the women around him with a mentality of "if you are lucky, you can't see them".
No one came to Prince Ji's Mansion today because Prince Ji was about to marry his concubine. He had a happy event and would not attend any banquets.
Yu Wenhao and Yuan Qingling were sitting in the Nuan Pavilion in the side hall. There were too many people outside and it was too chaotic. They only waited for the banquet before going out.
"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?" Yu Wenhao saw that her face had become gloomy since she called in, so he held her hand and asked.
Yuan Qingling looked at him, a little puzzled, "Is the third brother possessed by a demon? How could he do this?"
Yu Wenhao shook his head, "I don't know, I've never heard of this before."
Yuan Qing Ling said: "I heard from Princess Sun that he and Princess Wei went through a lot of hardships before they got together. What happened back then?"
Yu Wenhao said: "It is true that they have gone through a lot of hardships. After they got married, they have always been very affectionate. My father even praised them for their deep love. I don't know why it suddenly became like this."
