5th Story 3
Wang Shi’s body swayed, knowing that the situation was over, and almost fainted, Fang Jingrong quickly supported his mother, asked innocently, “Mother, is it possible that Xi Jue’s will come down?” The Beihou Mansion in the dignified mansion but didn’t even have a sensible person, and the Fang family was finished.
“Fengtian Chengyun, the emperor said, I heard that Fang Jingrong, the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, deceived the first and deceived the marriage later, and today, the marriage between Fang Jingrong and the daughter of the Marquis Weiyuan is ordered to be cancelled, and the Marquis of Zhenbei’s dowry is ordered to be return everything.” Wang’s face was pale, “Yes, the minister’s wife took the order.” Fang Jingrong supported Wang to take the order, Wang glanced at Yao’s wife, and Yao endured the heartache and took the people of the Xiao family. After going down to carry the dowry, Mrs. Wang personally handed over the Gengtie and other items to Mrs. Li.
At this moment, in the silent hall, a young girl’s clear voice suddenly came, “It’s great, Your Majesty is wise, the third brother and cousin can finally be together, and the lovers finally get married. It’s the most beautiful thing in the world.”
Wang After listening to her daughter’s words, Shi almost fainted. “Nie Zha, don’t be a nonsense.” But seeing Fang Jingrong and Shu Jiaren both looking happy, Wang felt her head hurt even more.
The eunuch who announced the decree did not leave after declaring the decree, but just stood there with a cold eye, waiting for Xiao Si to clean up the dowry, without any omissions. Another imperial decree, “Your Majesty has a decree, and the Zhenbei Houfu will accept the decree.”
Wang hurriedly knelt down with her children, “Zhenbei Hou Fang Weihao, who was defeated and died, originally won the title because of his past military exploits, and now he has taken away his title. , downgraded to Viscount, and his eldest son Fang Jingrong is Sijue. Appreciate this!”
Wang Shi suddenly collapsed to the ground, the imperial decree of Sijue was coming, but he was lowered from Marquis to Viscount, and he was downgraded by three levels at once. This, this, this…
After the eunuch who announced the decree announced the decree, he walked up to Xiao Qingyuan and said, “Marquis, Your Majesty asks you not to be angry. Your Majesty has written down the marriage of the eldest lady. If there is any good thing in the future, Your Majesty will give you the marriage in person.” Then he said to Xiao Yi, “Your Majesty said that it’s getting late, let the princess stay in the palace for one night, please rest assured.”
Xiao Qingyuan and Xiao Yi looked at each other, “Thank you, Your Majesty. It’s hard work for Gonggong to make this trip.” Xiao Yi smiled and stuffed a purse quietly.
The eunuch accepted it with a smile, “It’s getting late, the old slave has to return to the palace to answer the decree, so I’ll leave first.” Xiao Qingyuan smiled: “Gonggong is satisfied.”
Now, the guests who were planning to come over for a wedding drink have all dispersed at this time. The Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, no, it should be called the Viscount Mansion now, it’s bleak.
The girl who just spoke suddenly came over, “Marquis Weiyuan, you guys are too deceiving! My third brother and cousin are in love first, and even if your daughter gets married, she will be ranked behind my cousin. Besides, my brother agreed. If you don’t accept the second color, why do you have to press on like this step by step and get down to the ground, just because of this trivial matter, you are actually alarming in front of Your Majesty and downgrading my family’s title?”
“Ruer! Enough!” Wang sighed.
Xiao Qingyuan sneered and walked away with his wife and son.
Fang Miaoru said with a look of resentment, “Mother, why don’t you let me talk about it. This matter is obviously wrong with the Xiao family, her daughter can’t give birth and the third brother is willing to marry her, it’s her blessing, and dare…” After she finished speaking, she was interrupted by a slap in the face from Xiao Si, who had left and returned.
“I never hit a woman, you are the first!” Xiao Si said viciously.
“Xiao Si, don’t go too far. How dare you hit someone in my town Beihou Mansion!” Fang Jingrui stopped in front of his sister and said angrily.
“The Marquis of Zhenbei? Did the lord make a mistake? Your Majesty has just ordered that you are now a viscount. Oh, by the way, to remind you, the plaque outside should be taken down. If it is still hanging tomorrow morning, It is estimated that there will be a case in the imperial history to sue you for overstepping the rules.” Xiao Si laughed, and then facing Fang Jingrong and Fang Mianru’s angry eyes, Xiao Si said, “It was your Fang family who came to ask for relatives, and those conditions were also your initiative. When you brought it up, our Xiao family didn’t say a word from beginning to end. Could it be that my Xiao family forced you to marry my sister?”
“Otherwise, why should I give up my cousin and marry a woman who I don’t like and who can’t even give birth to a child for the sake of the emperor!” Fang Jingrong shouted with his neck stubborn.
Xiao Si slapped him again, “Don’t let me hear you slander my sister again, do you believe that you can’t keep even the Viscount?” Xiao Si said viciously, “I’ve seen sluts before. Quite a few, this is the first time I’ve seen a bitch like you. While counting on our Xiao family to help you speak kind words in front of His Majesty and keep your title, you also despise my sister! Humph! You have such a big face.”
“Asi, let’s go, what nonsense are you talking to them.” Xiao Yi stood at the gate, and he obviously heard what he said. He coldly looked at the Fang family as if he was looking at a group of dead people.
Xiao Si returned the same look, then turned around and left.
Fang Mianru was relieved when he saw them leaving, “It’s really outrageous! The Xiao family is too arrogant!” With a snap, Fang Mianru covered her face and looked at Wang in disbelief, “Mother, why did you fight me!?”
Wang Shi’s face was as white as a piece of paper, and her body was shaking with anger, “How did I support you two evil obstacles!” Then, looking at Fang Jingrong and Shu Jiaren hugging each other, she said angrily, “I told you for how many times, let you send her out of the city, first stabilize the Xiao family and talk about it! When the title is kept, everything will be easy to say in the future, but you don’t listen! This is good, the marriage of the Xiao family is yellow, and the marquis surrenders became a viscount.”
Fang Jingrong’s left face was swollen, and he covered his face aggrieved, “But mother, the beauty is pregnant with your grandson! How can you let me send her to the country with confidence?”
Wang Shi Shivering with anger, “I have more than ten grandchildren, none of them are missing!”
Shu Jiaren’s face was hurt, and Fang Jingrong was also indignant, “Mother, how can you say that!”
Fang Jingrui’s face darkened, “Enough 3rd brother! We agreed at the beginning, and you agreed. If you insisted on it, the 4th brother and the 5th brother have not married yet, although they are concubines, it is not impossible to pretend to be the son under the mother’s name. They can do better. But now, you have screwed it all up!”
The second oldest Fang Jingqian, the old Sifang Jing and the old fifth Jingwen were equally angry, but Fang Miaoyu raised her head and said, “The direct descendant is the direct descendant, the concubine is a concubine, all are clear, how can you deceive yourself!” As soon as these words were said, a trace of anger flashed on the faces of Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen.
But compared to Fang Jingrong, Fang Jingrui still relies more on and trusts the abilities of these two concubines. Besides, Fang Mianru was so arrogant in front of the Gonggong just now, and now she is also arrogant together with Fang Jingrui.
Before he could act, Fang Jingqian slapped Fang Mianru first, “Come here, send the third lady back to the room, let Wei Wei and Qian Qian go there, and discipline the third lady well, she is not allowed to come out until she has learned the etiquette well. No one is allowed to let her out without the instructions of my eldest brother and I, and no one is allowed to go in to see her!”
Several old women came up and immediately pulled Fang Mianru, who was crying and shouting, back.
Although Fang Jingqian is incompetent, he is better at being observant and judging the situation. He has instinctively realized that the situation is not good for the other party, so he can no longer let Ruer go on like this.
Wang Shi sighed and nodded, “Just do as the second master said! Third, go back to your yard and don’t appear in front of me for the time being.”
Fang Jingrong put her arms around Shu Jiaren and looked at Wang Shi expectantly, ” Mother, now that the marriage with the Xiao family has been settled, is it okay for me and the beauty?” Shu Jiaren also looked at Wang’s expectantly, and called out softly, “Auntie!”
Such a big thing, you only think about this? You, you really!” Wang Shi was speechless in anger.
Fang Jingrui waved his hand and motioned for his wife to take the children down, as did Fang Jingqian. Seeing this, Fang Jingrong said softly to Shu Jiaren: “Jiaren, you go back to rest first. I have everything!”
Shu Jiaren’s only advantage is that she is obedient, and she nodded, holding the nurse’s hand and went back.
Fang Jingrui helped Wang to sit down, “Mother, what should we do now?”
Wang rubbed his forehead tiredly, “Jing and Jingwen, you also talk about it, what should we do now?” Seeing that the two were silent, Wang shi added: “The Fang family is also your family. If the Fang family falls, it won’t do you any good.” She also had no choice.
Fang Jingrui also looked anxious, “Yeah, if you have any thoughts, tell me quickly!”
A sneer flashed across Fang Jinghe’s face, “I said at the beginning that people who marry the Xiao family must be careful, my fifth brother and I have made plans to not take concubines or have children for the rest of our lives, but mother, you said there is a difference between the superior and the inferior, and insisted on letting the third brother marry the daughter of the Xiao family. My fifth brother and I also recognized it, and we also proposed that Cousin Shu must be properly dealt with. We mean to abort this child and send Cousin Shu go to Zhuangzi in the countryside. After a few years, the Fang family can regain a firm foothold in the court and can compete with the Xiao family, or when the time is right, they will propose a succession or bring back cousin Shu. But my mother listened to the third brother went to the other courtyard the day before the marriage, not to mention that the third sister just came back from the other courtyard. All of them were caught by the Xiao family!”
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Wang Shi’s face, “Now what’s the use of talking about it, what should we do in the future?”
Fang Jinghe was about to speak, but Fang Jingwen raised his hand to stop it, “I just asked quietly, the reason why the Xiao family knew about the existence of cousin Shu was because of the eldest princess Wenqing. I asked, Xiao’s daughter dreams, and the dream mentioned the third brother and cousin Shu. Weiyuanhou loved this daughter the most, so he sent someone to investigate. That’s why they came to know about it.”
Very awe, so the faces of Wang Shi and others are a little unnatural. Fang Jingwen continued: “For today’s plan, it’s better to be quiet. Right now, Your Majesty already has a preconceived impression of Fang’s family. At this time, we can’t continue to act rashly.”
