5th Story 8
Cheng Nuo, as he promised, gave Li Yueran a prosperous wedding. In this prosperous wedding, dowries are not to be mentioned, anyway, it is enough to make many people jealous for a lifetime. The grand occasion of the single marriage was unprecedented, but at least in the past two decades, no one could match it, not even the prince married a concubine. It’s not about regulation, but about the level of excitement.
The marriage of the ancients was different from that of today. Most of the marriages of the ancients took place at night. On the day of the wedding, from Weiyuan Hou’s Mansion to Prince Rong’s Mansion, a torch was erected every ten steps, and half of the capital was brightly illuminated. Cheng Nuo also invited Yu Linwei to be responsible for the security work tonight. , One by one, Yulinwei in armor stood by the roadside, all of them very handsome.
Cheng Nuo wore a red dress, rode on a tall horse, and behind him was the best man group that he personally selected, and went to Weiyuan Houfu in a mighty manner. Along the way, the guards behind them carried baskets of copper coins and walked and scattered them all the way, attracting the crowd of onlookers to loot, and then shouted, “I wish the prince and the princess a hundred years of harmony!”
Cheng Nuo rode on the horse and was complacent.
The movement was so loud that many people came out to watch. Only Fang’s house, the door is locked. But even so, the hustle and bustle outside spread to the inner courtyard. In the flower hall, Mrs Wang sat on the head, her face sinking like water.
At the bottom, Jing Rui and the others were sitting below, and their faces were also very bad. Only Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen looked as usual.
Wang Shi slapped the table angrily, “The Xiao family is so deceiving!”
Fang Jinghe’s eyes flashed with disdain, “Mother, what does this have to do with the Xiao family, if you want to blame it, you should also blame Prince Rong!” However, because Prince Rong’s status was respected, the Wang family didn’t dare to offend him, so the persimmons were just soft to pinch.
“Hmph, if it wasn’t for the Xiao family’s instigation, why did Prince Rong deliberately turn a corner and pass by my house? Isn’t this specially made for our Fang family to see?” Wang Shi said angrily.
Fang Jinghe wanted to say more, Fang Jingwen shook his head slightly, signaling him to stop.
When Shu Jiaren saw this, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed lightly. Fang Jingrong reacted and asked, “Fourth brother, how is the approach to the seventh prince going?”
A gloom flashed in Fang Jinghe’s eyes, this third brother, who is controlled by a woman, is really… “Third brother rest assured, it is in progress. But the seventh prince is very cautious, and this matter can only be taken care of. By the way, after discussing it with the fifth brother, I found two nanny for the third sister. The current third sister, with mediocre aptitude, is not enough to survive in the prince’s backyard. Although these two nanny are stricter, they are enough for the third sister to be reborn.” Not only was it a little strict, but the two maids he was looking for were from the Jingli Department of Punishment in the palace. Since he was going to leave, it was natural for the third sister to suffer a little. If she can bear it, maybe she really has the ability to survive in the backyard of the Seventh Prince. In this way, it may be her creation.
Wang Shi nodded, “Well, you are very thoughtful.” Suddenly she remembered something, “Since you have decided to join the Seventh Prince, then some things should be done. I found out that the Seventh Prince’s biological mother, Mrs. Qian, has a younger brother. , there are two sons and one daughter in the family, both of whom are direct descendants. Her daughter is fifteen this year, the fourth and fifth. Let’s see who is more suitable to marry her. Although the Qian family is only a commoner, she is the cousin of the seventh prince. With such an identity, if entering the seventh prince’s backyard is not good for Mianru, it is better for our family to marry her. In this case, the relationship with the seventh prince will become even more intimate.”
Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen flashed of a humiliation trace in their eyes, is it in the eyes of the mother, that they are only worthy of marrying the daughters of ordinary people. Even if he is the uncle of the Seventh Prince, after the Seventh Prince develops, he may be able to rise to the sky alone, but who knows how many years later, do they deserve to sacrifice themselves for their interests?
“Mother, don’t mention it for now! The son just now said that the seventh prince is a very guarded person. At this time, he hastily proposed to marry his cousin, and the seventh prince will inevitably suspect something. It’s better to wait a while. , when the son has gained a certain trust from the seventh prince, I will mention this matter to the seventh prince in person, if the seventh prince can personally act as a matchmaker, then it will be foolproof.” Fang Jinghe suppressed the anger in his heart and said expressionlessly.
Wang Shi thought for a while, “Okay, you can act on your own! However, be quick. If you are seen by others and take the first step, it will be bad.”
“Don’t worry, mother, son knows what to do.” Fang Jing and said.
Fang Jingrui cleared his throat, “Fourth younger brother and fifth younger brother, eldest brother also knows that this matter has wronged you, and eldest brother will definitely make up for you. But, on the other hand, if the seventh prince will be crowned as a treasure in the future, he will be awarded the title of his mother’s clan. It’s imperative, maybe a gentleman can’t escape. The status of the Qian family’s daughter will also rise with the tide. You won’t suffer, right?”
Fang Jingqian didn’t say anything, just on the sidelines. Fang Jingrong always pays attention to Shu Jiaren around him, and in his opinion, the role of the younger brother and younger sister is to contribute to the future marriage of the family. This is what they should do, and there is nothing to be wronged.
Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen stood up, “Brother, you’re welcome.”
The clamor of gongs and drums came in, Wang’s Shu Jiaren’s face was not very good, “Okay, you go down first! Remember to serve more snacks. If the Fang family is good, you can be good.”
“Yes, mother! Mother’s eldest brother, second brother, third brother, let’s go down first.” Fang Jinghe lowered his head and said.
“Wait a minute!” Fang Jingrong frowned, “Your third sister-in-law is still there, why didn’t you say hello to your third sister-in-law.”
Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen endured the humiliation and bowed their heads: “Sister-in-law three, let’s go down first.”
Shu Jiaren slightly with a smile, “Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, walk slowly.”
Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen turned and left the flower hall. Before they could go out, they heard Wang’s complaining to Fang Jingrui behind him, “What to compensate them? What is there to compensate? Do you still feel wronged? Can’t they do it?”
Fang Jingrui persuaded: “Mother, you can’t say that, and mother, it’s more polite to talk to the fourth and fifth brothers, after all, father is gone.”
Wang Shi said angrily: “What? Don’t they dare not listen to me? Be careful I sue them for disobedience!”
Shu Jiaren persuaded softly: “Mother don’t need to be angry, it’s not wrong for the eldest brother to worry. If money can calm the dissatisfaction of the fourth and fifth uncles, it’s okay to waste some money. As long as the big things can be accomplished, the mother still cares about this? The future of the younger sister and the Fang family is more important. After all, there are still a lot of things to be done by the fourth brother and the fifth brother. It’s just that mother, the fourth brother and the fifth brother are now in charge of the household affairs, and in charge of the outside business and farmland. It’s too much, why don’t you ask your husband to help!” After all, Shu Jiaren didn’t trust Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen very much either.
When she came to her grandfather’s house, she had weighed several times between her cousins. The eldest cousin was already married, and her aunt would never let her eldest cousin marry her. The second cousin is incompetent and greedy for enjoyment. There are only three cousins, who are simple-minded, soft-hearted, and used to be sympathetic to fragrance and jade. So I had better choose the third cousin. Who knew that something went wrong in the middle, she was already prepared for a long-term battle, but who knew that the twists and turns would still let her get her way. Only Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen, she was still a little wary.
The fourth brother and the fifth brother take care of it well, what is it for me to intervene at this moment. I don’t like these mundane affairs.” Fang Jingrong was the first to object. “Why don’t you come, second brother?”
“I don’t want it!” Fang Jingqian said hurriedly.
Fang Jingrui also said: “Ten years ago, the fourth brother and the fifth brother began to help my father and me with household affairs and external business. My father trusted them, and I also trusted them. They have this ability.”
Wang said disdainfully. “Don’t worry, they don’t have the guts to do anything.”
Seeing Wang’s confidence, Shu Jiaren thought that Fang Jing and Fang Jingwen had something to do with her, so she felt a little relieve and no longer mentioned.
When Fang Jinghe heard this, his face was gloomy, “Fifth brother, plan ahead, speed up the action, and within a month, let’s go!”
Fang Jingwen nodded, “Well, I’ll listen to the fourth brother.”
And the Fang’s turbulence is different. Prince Rong’s mansion is full of love, and the two embrace each other, lingering and hearty. Li Yueran said with a bitter face: “Actually speaking, I don’t think there is anything wrong with transmigrating into a married young woman last time. At least you don’t have to endure the pain of this first time again and again.”
Cheng Nuo said with a smile: “You’re not at a loss in this life. What’s the pain of breaking one’s head, it can be compared to the pain of giving birth.”
Li Yueran rolled over and lay on top of him, “You really don’t care. I can’t give birth to a child. “
It’s better if I can’t give birth. No one disturbs our world, how comfortable it is. Besides, this way, my brother will be more at ease to let me run around.” Cheng Nuo said nonchalantly.
“The emperor doesn’t trust you?” Li Yueran asked nervously.
“How should I put it, when I didn’t threaten his throne, he is still very kind to me. But after all, my mother was my father’s favorite woman in his later years. If it wasn’t for my mother’s insistence, my father’s wife would have the imperial decree of the imperial concubine as it has been written. Besides, my grandfather’s family has made many military exploits and made great contributions, and my imperial brother is also afraid, afraid that I will have a different opinion under the instigation of someone with a heart. In fact, I was raised by him and his mother. I remember this kindness. Besides, I have no intention of being the emperor. Over the years, I have distanced myself from my grandfather’s family and kept away from the government, he is really at ease with me.” Cheng Nuo said nonchalantly.
Li Yueran nodded, yes, he didn’t even have any children anymore, so being the emperor was a fart.
