Chapter 64
Chapter 64
Xie Tangru didn't take Yu Ran very seriously at first.After all, the status of the concubine's daughter of the Yongning Houfu is enough to make the little girl from the mountains and fields of Lingnan be in a hurry and have no time for others.Mrs. Marquis Yongning asked the nanny to watch her practice etiquette eight hours a day, and the ladies were not allowed to go out and walk around at will. Even if they went to a banquet at a relative's house, four or five maids would stare at her.Not to mention that Mrs. Yongning Hou asked someone to teach her female red, painting and calligraphy, cifu rhythm, butler settlement, etc. Even three Yurans were not enough for Mrs. Yongninghou.
How did Yu Ran know that the people in the capital were sinister, but she had no reason to refuse.
Although Xie Tangru didn't fully believe in dreams, Yu Ran herself was a bit weird, so he thought about it and asked people to stare at her.
Yu Ran really didn't have the energy to deal with things other than Mrs. Yongning Hou.The Duke of Wei's government rejected her marriage proposal, which made Mrs. Yongninghou start to cry when she looked at her own daughter—if she couldn't find a matching marriage, what would she do if she and her husband left behind after a hundred years?She doesn't have any direct brothers to rely on, and her collateral brothers are not brothers, they are all wolf-like tigers and leopards.
As for the adopted daughter, because she was exposed for framing her own daughter last time, she did not end well, so Mrs. Yongninghou sent her to live the rest of her life with the ancient Buddha with a green lamp in her family temple.Yu Ran was left with only her daughter as a companion.
Mrs. Yongning Hou was shedding tears, while taking Yu Ran to various small banquets, she would never let Yu Ran take three steps away from her gaze.But those who are willing to marry Yu Ran are those who write about high and low achievements. Mrs. Yongninghou was not satisfied with her selection. In the end, the wife of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry recommended to her an aide in the abolished prince's mansion.
Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry said meaningfully: "Don't think that Mr. Shen is not well-known now, but he has a bright future in the future."
Mrs. Yongninghou hesitated again and again, and went back to discuss with her daughter.Yu Ran immediately said: "Since he is said to be of good character, why don't you meet him first?"
Mrs. Yongning Hou thought about it for the same reason, so she entrusted her husband to invite Shen Yu to come over as a guest, looking for an opportunity for Yu Ran and Shen Yu to meet alone.
The maidservants stood far outside the hanging flower gate. Yu Ran wore the most common aristocratic hair bun in Yuejing, and her lotus-colored skirt was gentle and elegant. At first glance, she looked like a decent noblewoman in the capital.
Shen Yu lowered his eyes to look at her, secretly praising Mrs. Qi Yongning's ability, and cupped his hands: "Miss Ran."
Yu Ran didn't appreciate his kind attitude, and was even a little tired of the red tape, so she asked directly, "Why did Yu Sheng ask you to come to me? Did you see my joke?"
"She didn't mean that." Shen Yu smiled softly on his lips, "I didn't know Miss Ran before I came here today...the change is so great."
"What did Yu Sheng call you for?" Yu Ran frowned.
"I came to see Miss Ran today to make my own decision." Shen Yu's posture was gentle and elegant, "I have a deal here, I wonder if Miss Ran is interested?"
"Are you referring to your stupid plan to support the deposed prince?" Yu Ran asked back with a smile, "I don't care what you want to achieve, I just want to bring my sister back to Lingnan when I come to Yuejing .”
Shen Yu sighed: "But Miss Jianshuang doesn't want to go back to Lingnan with you, right? After all, going back to Lingnan is a dead end."
The smile on Yu Ran's face stopped, "She's my sister, I won't let her die."
"Really?" Shen Yu smiled slightly.
Yu Ran's tone became fierce: "If you and Yu Sheng are dead, my sister will not die."
Shen Yu smiled undiminished: "Really?"
Yu Ran threw the vase at his feet: "Get lost."
.........
Xie Yuan and Jianshuang talked about some interesting things that happened recently. The Marquis of Yongning chose thousands of choices, but the one she finally chose was the emperor's close minister and promising future Master Song Xuansong.Mrs. Yongning Hou was determined to identify this son-in-law, and entrusted more than a dozen matchmakers to come to the door, and she didn't care about the modesty of the noble family.
Jianshuang lowered her eyes: "Yu Ran...does she agree?" She still couldn't call out "sister".
"You forgot that high-ranking families always talk about the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers, and it's not Yu Ran's turn to decide." Xie Yuan said, "If Song Xuan agrees, it is estimated that this daughter of the Marquis of Yongning will really stay in the capital for the rest of her life."
After thinking about it, Xie Yuan added: "But Song Xuan will probably not agree to it."
Jianshuang's frown never relaxed, Xie Yuan looked at her, and frowned unconsciously, but he was really not a comforting character, so he said firmly: "Don't worry, if Yu Ran must force Take you away, and I'll kill her."
.........
The matter of Yu Ran was put aside for the time being. Here, Xie Tangru received the moon cakes from the imperial dining room, and then remembered that the Mid-Autumn Festival will be held in a few days, and there will be a banquet in the palace, and the emperor and his courtiers will have fun together.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival... Xie Tangru sighed slightly as he thought about it, it would be Shang Qingyao's birthday.According to the emperor's intentions, Qianqiu was not planning to make a big deal, but Xie Tangru had lived in the palace for so long, so he should have something to say about Shang Qingyao's birthday.
This is a difficult situation for Xie Shizi.
Xie Tangru has never had any difficulty choosing a gift for his group of cronies and friends for their birthdays - precious, rare, and novelty, you can never go wrong if you choose from these directions.But if it was to be given to Shang Qingyao, these things would be a little bit less interesting.
Xie Shizi was going to find some of his cronies to gather together, Li Mengshu hadn't been seen recently, so Xie Tangru had no choice but to find Shang Qinghuai, who had just been unlucky a few days ago - he had finally come out from the shadow of the adopted daughter of the Yongning Hou Mansion, After what happened last time, his mother saw that he had reached the age to start a family, so she chased after him every day with a feather duster. Either Shang Qinghuai would marry a wife and come back, or Shang Qinghuai would come back after taking the exam like Xie Tangru. It's okay to be a third-class scholar.
The ignorant Shang Qinghuai: "..."
When his mother finally figured out that everything should not be forced, and released Shang Qinghuai from the study, he finally regained his freedom. When he saw his former friend, his eyes were full of tears.
——Young Master Xie is really harmful.
But Shang Qing had a big heart, and when he heard that Xie Tangru was in trouble, he didn't bother to complain to Xie Tangru about how much Xie Tangru's fame had caused him, so he devoted all his energy to advising him: "Your Majesty is not an ordinary person, you want to send a birthday gift? Different from others, I'm afraid it's a bit difficult...Ah Ru, do you know what His Majesty wants or what he doesn't have?"
Xie Tangru thought for a while: "...It seems to be the same."
Shang Qinghuai also thought of the same thing, but he still asked Xie Tangru first: "What?"
"He once mentioned to me that the grassland cavalry invaded the three states in the northern border, and the people were struggling to survive. They have been suffering from no way to cut the weeds and root them out." Xie Tangru said with a gloomy danger at the end, "But this matter will not be good for a while. Do it, I have to go back and think about it carefully...Thank you for today."
Shang Qinghuai, who watched Xie Tang go away like his back, was blank-eyed and murmured to himself: "It's not easy to handle... I didn't think about this at all." He was just urged by his mother to start a family, Considering that His Majesty does not have any concubines in the harem, if Xie Tangru can recommend a suitable empress candidate, His Majesty may be happy.
But... Shang Qinghuai shook her head. If what Xie Tangru said can be successful, then I guess His Majesty will be happier than having two queens, right?
