Chapter seven hundred and fifteen to choose a concubine
"Zheng Lun said that his mother met the girl and said that she was dignified and dignified, but she had a soft temper. But his mother said that it was nothing. When she got married, she would be a good wife and mother."
Huh? Gu Chengyu heard the implication, dignified and majestic. There is no other adjective. Here, it is usually used to describe a woman's appearance.
Otherwise, if you are good-looking, you will definitely add a picturesque face to the front. Even if it is not good, it will still be a pretty face or something.
But Zheng Lun's mother would certainly not mind marrying a virtuous wife.
If the son really doesn't like her, he can take more beautiful concubines.
This is a common problem among the ancients. In ancient times, not only men thought this way, but also women.
Furthermore, my temperament is a bit soft, which has something to do with the environment in which I grew up.
This girl's status is a bit embarrassing. She has to make a living by her aunt's side, and she still has a aunt's daughter.
It is impossible for the aunt's mother to teach her too much knowledge, so as not to steal the halo from her aunt's daughter.
Over time, either they develop a white lotus appearance but a deep and scheming heart, or they develop a submissive character.
No matter how powerful the aunt is, there are those who praise her and deliberately raise her concubine to be mean and mean, making everyone in the house hate her.
Others will compare her with the obedient and dignified legitimate daughter, making the concubine the green leaf that sets off the legitimate daughter.
What's even more outrageous is spreading the concubine's temperament to others, and regretting that girl's life.
Of course, there are no absolutes!
He didn't understand the character of the girl and Mrs. Hu. Maybe she was really a good aunt?
These are all his guesses, and naturally it is difficult to express these words openly.
Unlike Gu Chengyu who was full of twists and turns, Zhu Pang didn't think so much.
"Is this what Zheng Lun told you?"
Gu Chengyu felt that Zheng Lun was already attentive, and his mother must have said something that gave Zheng Lun a rough idea of what kind of girl his future wife was.
"Yeah! However, my mother has seen that girl before, and even my daughter-in-law has met her. My mother only said that the girl's rules are very good, and her appearance! Maybe she is dignified!"
His mother would not say the latter words to him. He only found out about it when he overheard the conversation between his mother and his wife.
"Don't talk nonsense in front of Zheng Lun, let alone judge other girls' looks. As the saying goes, seeing is believing and hearing is false."
Gu Chengyu just tried to persuade him, and Zhu Pang probably just said it in front of him!
"Do you know who made the Iceman?"
Compared to the girl's appearance, Gu Chengyu was more interested in who was the matchmaker.
"I heard that she is the wife of the Crown Prince of Zhenguo Palace."
Zhu Pang took the green lotus leaf plate in his hand and played with it. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it.
"Oh?" Gu Chengyu was surprised. Isn't the wife of the Crown Prince of Zhenguo Palace the mother of Yao Mengxian?
Could it be that the Crown Prince Zhenguo is very close to Dingnanhou Mansion or Hu Mansion?
But he had never heard of such a relationship between the three parties before.
Just when Gu Chengyu was confused, Zhu Pang made another shocking statement.
"I heard that the emperor is going to choose a princess for Prince Jing."
Gu Chengyu wasn't too surprised when he heard this. After all, Prince Jing was quite old. He was still wondering why Ke was the matchmaker.
The emperor also said before that he wanted to marry Prince Jing, but some respectable families in the capital tried their best to refuse. I don't know what happened this time.
"But guess what, there are many families in the capital who are very willing."
This shocked Gu Chengyu. Wasn't he not happy before?
"Let's not talk about those from small families. Among them, there are actually two high-ranking families! One of them is Anhe Houfu, and his family happens to have a legitimate daughter of the right age."
Zhu Pang spoke carelessly, which made Gu Chengyu think deeply.
The Anhehou Mansion was in ruins and life was very difficult.
It's not surprising that they would be willing. After all, Prince Jing is a prince. If he marries his legitimate daughter, she will be a princess with a royal certificate, and the Hou family can be regarded as a proper relative of the emperor.
Besides, aside from other things, the status of the princess is still noble.
Those who were unwilling naturally had other plans, because the prince had no real power.
In the future, if Prince Jing goes to the fiefdom, it will not be of any benefit to their family.
"Which one else?" Gu Chengyu was interested in who the other one was?
"You can't even imagine this family. It's the granddaughter of your teacher from Zhenguo Palace."
Gu Chengyu suddenly felt bad. Who is Prince Jing?
If it can happen in the future, then Yao Mengxian can also be the mother of the world, which is not a disadvantage.
But what if Prince Jing cannot succeed? How can Yao Mengxian and Zhen Guo Gongfu survive in the future?
The survival of the Zhenguo Palace has nothing to do with him, so he has nothing to worry about.
It's just that Yao Mengxian is the teacher's granddaughter. If something happens to her, the teacher and his wife may not survive.
Yao Mengxian could not marry anyone else, otherwise she would have to join Prince Jing's family.
He can't stand on the opposite side of the teacher, right?
Seeing Gu Chengyu frowning, Zhu Pang looked Gu Chengyu up and down with strange eyes.
"Ahem! What? Are you surprised?"
Gu Chengyu came back to his senses and nodded repeatedly, "It's indeed surprising. Both the Duke and the Crown Prince of Zhenguo Palace agree?"
"I heard that Miss Yao's father agreed, but the Duke of Guo did not express his position. I don't know what that means. Anyway, the Crown Prince's wife is quite active. She has made a few comments about any banquet held recently."
Zhu Pang did not have a good impression of Na Ke, although the daughter-in-law of Zhenguo Palace was definitely one of the candidates for the concubine selection this time, and the eldest daughter-in-law was the best candidate for the princess.
But Ke Shi was also too eager. Wouldn't this ruin Miss Yao's reputation?
Besides, who of those aristocratic families would be willing? It’s like these two families are just trying to grab a cozy home.
It's just that the reason why he looked at Gu Chengyu just now is because that girl is the granddaughter of Liang Shoufu, and they are about the same age.
"Miss Yao and you are considered childhood sweethearts, you?"
Zhu Pang leaned in front of Gu Chengyu and smiled with a wretched look on his face.
Gu Chengyu frowned, "I have never met Miss Yao a few times. Don't talk nonsense and ruin the reputation of this girl. Besides the parents' orders and the words of the matchmaker, Miss Yao and I are more out of love than anything else."
Regarding etiquette, it is absolutely impossible to give or receive it privately."
When Zhu Pang heard what Gu Chengyu said, he immediately rolled his eyes at Gu Chengyu.
"Ahem! I just have a bad tongue, but I dare not say it outside."
He also knew that this was related to the girl's reputation, and it was really inappropriate for him to say so.
As Gu Chengyu said this, he suddenly had an idea and suddenly connected Zheng Lun's marriage with Prince Jing's selection of a concubine.
No, there must be something going on here.
Because Zhu Pang was there, Gu Chengyu had to put the matter aside and asked about Zheng Lun's wedding date.
"When did Zheng Lun get engaged? When was the wedding date set?"
Gu Chengyu missed Zhu Pang's wedding and could not miss it again this time.
