Jiang Lu felt an inexplicable suddenness in her heart: "It's nothing to worry about, it's just a little typhoid fever, but... Rong Chen asked, why do you want to see the eldest lady?"
King An said very naturally: "When the eldest daughter of your family was in Fusi, Beizhen, I had a chance encounter with her. I thought this little girl was very smart and cute. Now that she is sick, I went to visit her.
Isn’t it reasonable?”
Jiang Hu didn't think it was reasonable, he thought it was outrageous.
"Actually, it is my second sister, Jiang Lu, who is sick."
"Well, then I won't go." What King An said was so natural that it would make people misunderstand whether he and Jiang Wu were related.
At this time, while Jiang Lu was still chatting with Prince An, Fu Heng suddenly said coldly: "I have some important matters to deal with, so I'll take my leave first." With that, he left.
Jiang Hu was not familiar with Wang An to begin with. It was not unfamiliar, but she almost didn't know him. She no longer thought about why Wang An cared about Jiang Wu, so she left.
…
The dusk was dark, the breeze rustled the willow branches, and large dark clouds floated over from the other side. This year has passed, but I didn't expect a heavy rain to come so soon.
As soon as Fu Heng returned home, he was not surprised to be called into the study by the eldest princess.
Fu Heng stood quietly in front of the door with his hands behind his hands. He had a smile on his face and seemed to be confident. He said unhurriedly: "Why did mother call me?"
The eldest princess sneered coldly: "I only want to ask you one thing, what is your relationship with the Jiang family's legitimate daughter?"
Outside the window, raindrops were already falling, and the branches were slowly drooping. Fu Heng picked up the jade porcelain cup and poured himself a cup of tea. He said lightly: "Mother, I
But I can’t understand it.”
The eldest princess took a deep breath and asked: "Today, you were thinking about her going to get married, so you rushed into the palace to meet the emperor. If I hadn't stopped you in front of the imperial study room yesterday, would you have gone to question the emperor yesterday?
?”
Fu Heng said: "No."
The eldest princess: "...I'm not asking you to answer me."
The eldest princess was helpless and said: "I also liked that girl before. I said before that she was your slave. We are not the kind of arbitrary people who will not have any grudges because of her identity. But it is different now.
She has become the daughter of Marquis Pingxuan, so I really have to give some thought to this marriage."
Fu Heng frowned: "Why?"
The princess felt a headache when she mentioned this matter: "It's not that there's anything wrong, it's just that Marquis Pingxuan, who was able to reach this stage as a concubine back then, is by no means an ordinary person's scheming. In the early years, he killed many people for the sake of his title.
It's not a secret in Beijing that your brother killed his father, and your father also had some disagreements with him in the court. Besides, it was him who took the initiative to ask his daughter to go and get married, so what's the point of you getting involved?"
Fu Heng said: "But Jiang Wu and he have no father-daughter relationship."
The eldest princess wanted to continue saying something, but she suddenly paused: "What you said means admitting it."
There was a smile in Fu Heng's eyes, but in this smile, he looked very serious: "If I have to choose someone to spend my life with, then I hope it will be her."
The eldest princess was stunned. She narrowed her eyes for the first time and looked at her son like this.
Fu Heng seemed to have opened up his chatterbox today. Even the eldest princess felt that he rarely talked so much. He said: "You mentioned the matter of letting me marry you two years ago. She is now sixteen years old.
I'll be seventeen in two months, so I'm just the right age."
The meaning of these words is very obvious. Not only does he want to marry a wife, he has even been planning for a long time. I am afraid he even got her birth date and horoscope.
The eldest princess sighed: "What if I say no? Do you know that she was going to get married. If you marry her at this time, what do you want me to explain to the emperor?"
Fu Heng said confidently: "The Holy One will not let her get married."
The eldest princess tried her best to suppress the desire to roll her eyes: "You seem to know the emperor better when you say this. Is he my brother or your brother?"
"Your."
The eldest princess: "..." She often hated why her son had an open mouth.
At this time, her personal nanny came into the house with a tea cup and served tea to the two of them. Seeing the awkward atmosphere between mother and son, they actually looked at each other in silence. The nanny had been serving the elderly for decades, and she and several masters
She was also quite familiar with her. She used her eyes to signal Fu Heng to pour tea for the eldest princess so that she could calm down her anger. Unfortunately, Fu Heng was a very upright person. He said seriously: "Mother Liu, there is no need to serve tea to me. Give it to mother."
.”
Aunt Liu:......
Fu Heng poured himself some tea, then put his fist to his lips and coughed twice. He felt it was not enough, so he coughed twice more.
The eldest princess glanced at him, and then remembered that he had been working hard for Beizhen Fusi during this period, and she finally couldn't bear it anymore. She said: "If you are free, take her to the eldest princess's house to stay for a while."
It is said to be a short stay, but in fact it is also a kind of announcement to the outside world. When Jiang Wu, an unmarried girl, went to live in the eldest princess's mansion for a short stay, didn't she mean to get married to her?
Fu Heng said of course: "Okay."
Only then did the eldest princess remember, "Does the Jiang family girl know about this?"
Fu Heng was stunned. Jiang Wu seemed to be completely unaware of all this.
The eldest princess knew it as soon as she saw his expression. This time she was so angry that she fell down: "Good guy, after all, you don't know anything, so you just join me? Then the girl will come to me another day.
When you were at home, did you think a picnic was coming?"
Fu Heng: "..."
"I'll let her know as soon as possible," he said.
So the eldest princess became even more angry: "Tell me? Do you think she has to marry you? Forget it, you idiot. Let's talk about it when you have a clear breakup with her. Go out, I want to drink tea."
"A son has his own sense of proportion."
I believe you can be a ghost if you are sensible!
The eldest princess was so angry that she grabbed the peanuts on the table and threw them at him, "You'd better go out first!"
Fu Heng didn't dare to argue anymore, so he left at this time. Before leaving, he didn't forget to say: "Thank you, mother, for helping me."
The eldest princess thought that you said this too early.
…
After Fu Heng left, the eldest princess put her index finger on her temples and slowly started rubbing them.
Aunt Liu advised from the side: "Fortunately, the prince now has someone he wants to get married to. Besides, he can take the initiative to talk to you, princess, which proves that he still has you in his heart. Our prince is a man of extraordinary talents, and I am very proud of him."
How could I not like it when I heard that the young lady’s life was saved by the Crown Prince? You were worried before, saying that if he gets older and doesn’t have anyone he cares about, you won’t in the future.
You know how."
After hearing this, the eldest princess felt a little relieved, but she was also a little worried: "Since that girl has entered the monastic profession, maybe her vision is different from ordinary people?"
