Chapter 47:
It is just as Jiang said, no matter how many children they have, they still have to live according to the face of their mistress.
Furthermore, there are few examples of concubines being rehabilitated in this era. Merchants who do not pay attention to rules would not do this, let alone raise a wealthy family to a noble house.
There is a little person in Wei Hanzhang's mind scratching his head. He doesn't understand why. In the original plot, the Jiang family will be abandoned and the concubine Shen Yue will be rehabilitated.
Not wanting to disturb her parents' rare tenderness, she quietly retreated out.
…
Back in his own courtyard, Wei Hanzhang pushed open the door of the courtyard wall and stepped into the annex of Prince Yan's Mansion.
The two maidservants stayed at their posts as usual. Seeing her coming, they were deeply blessed: "Miss Wei, hello."
Wei Hanzhang nodded casually, said no courtesy, and walked straight towards the main hall.
Halfway through, I saw Prince Xiao, dressed in a blue robe, standing under a rose tree. His figure was as tall and straight as a green bamboo. The morning light of early summer shone on his face, and the smile on his lips was clearly visible. Facing this way... seems to be waiting for her?
This thought made Wei Hanzhang pause and slow down involuntarily.
She walked slowly, but Xiao Junzhan couldn't wait any longer and walked over on his own initiative.
“Look up,” Xiao Junzhan walked a few steps to the girl who had been waiting for a long time, and said warmly, “Let me see if the injury on my face is better.”
"..." Thinking of his previous record of taking action himself if he disagreed with her, Wei Hanzhang pursed his lips and raised his head slightly: "It's better now."
As if being blinded by the sunlight, Xiao Junzhan lowered his eyes and inadvertently moved closer, looking at the girl in front of him without blinking an eye. His fingers in his sleeves slowly tightened, he smiled and said: "It's good to see. A little more.”
The man's voice was low and hoarse, unusually soft and pleasant. Wei Hanzhang suddenly raised his eyes and realized that he was too close. He hurriedly took two steps back and said cautiously: "Xiao Boqian, don't always think about it. Can Fa'er take advantage of the girl's family?"
Her voice was not quiet, and the attendants around her, including Ning Hai, heard her clearly. Although they all bowed slightly and could not see their faces, the atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.
Perhaps this was the first time someone said that he was taking advantage. Xiao Junzhan was slightly startled, and then he couldn't help but laugh. He pinched his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Ran Ran is right to remind you. I seem to behave in front of you." He is indeed becoming less of a gentleman.”
Compared to the initial embarrassment when looking at the girl he liked, Xiao Junzhan has made great progress in getting along with him these days.
Not only did he express his feelings frankly, but he also went a step further. He held the girl's shoulders, patted her slightly, and said softly: "How about you nod now, and I will choose a good and auspicious day to marry Ranran back home in an open and honest way?"
"Not at all." Wei Hanzhang took two steps back and pursed his lips slightly, "What we said at the beginning did not include asking me to marry you."
Another clean rejection made Xiao Junzhan's smile gradually fade, and he looked at the girl in front of him quietly.
This is the only girl he has waited for twenty-five years to meet, who makes his heart happy just by seeing her.
But she was not like this. She had a young man who grew up with her early on. They were childhood sweethearts and promised each other their whole lives.
From the day Xiao Junzhan learned that Wei Hanzhang was discussing marriage with the Gu family boy who grew up with him, he knew that the girl he admired might already have someone else in his heart.
The murderous intention that arose in that moment almost broke through the top of his head, and was finally suppressed by him.
It is easy to kill someone, but he knows that he cannot kill him.
Let the Gu family boy die during the period when their relationship was most sincere, so that she could spend the rest of her life remembering it?
He is not that stupid, and he is not that generous.
Xiao Junzhan's eyes moved downward from Wei Hanzhang's face inch by inch until her heart stopped.
His purpose is to expel the shadows of other men from her.
She could not have any place in her heart for other people, not even the slightest bit. There can only be one of him.
Xiao Junzhan's mood was ups and downs. Only Ning Hai, who was a close servant, felt the ups and downs of Xiao Junzhan's emotions in the courtyard. His shoulders shook slightly, and he bowed his shoulders even lower.
Wei Hanzhang had no idea. She was very grateful to Prince Xiao for his willingness to save the Jiang family, but she was not so grateful that she planned to marry her to a second-married man.
Even if I become a princess in the future...
its not right!
Wei Hanzhang was stunned, and suddenly thought that if she really married the Crown Prince of Yan in front of her, she would become the Princess of Yan in the future.
In an era when imperial power was paramount, the status of a princess was extremely noble. In addition to being lower than the high-ranking ladies in the harem, it was already the pinnacle of a woman's future.
Once she becomes the Crown Princess of Prince Yan, isn't it just a matter of words to keep her own mother from being abandoned?
Even if you want to get Wei Hanyue out of the family temple, it won't be difficult, right?
The worst case scenario is to tell the outside world that the person is dead and quietly change his identity to start over again. Maybe he won’t be able to return to his old life of servants and ladies, but it will still be more comfortable than spending the rest of his life in a temple.
If she really wants to marry into Prince Yan's palace, her voice in the Wei family will definitely be different than it used to be... She will become the biggest supporter of Jiang's mother and daughter in the original work, and her grandfather Wei Ping will probably be willing to give her this face.
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhang was really moved... and quickly suppressed it.
No, no.
Wei Hanzhang shook his head violently in his heart. The Jiang family's status was still stable, but she was not so selfless just to marry her to a second-married man just to get her sister to become a monk.
Her life is also very important. Unless she has to, she should not go against her own views on marriage and love and marry such a man with many wives and concubines.
Xiao Jun Zhanrao had no idea what to do, and he had no idea what was going through the mind of the girl in front of him.
Even though he was so overwhelmed by the fierce love, he didn't even realize how miserable he was being disliked because of his status as the crown prince of Prince Yan.
His vision was above the court. He really didn't know which family had a difficult childbirth for a woman in the backyard or how many wives and concubines there were. He only knew that Xiao Wen'an didn't have a wife, so that was all.
Although he was rejected cleanly again, Xiao Junzhan fulfilled his promise and took Wei Hanzhang to the Dali Temple Prison to visit the Jiang family.
When the carriage stopped, he handed over a curtain hat and said with a gentle expression: "There are many people here, Ran Ran, can you please cover your eyes?"
This is a question, he is respecting her choice.
In other words, he was reminding her.
Wei Hanzhang's heart felt hot and he felt a little moved.
Obviously if an acquaintance found out that she was walking alone with him, because of his status as the crown prince of Prince Yan, the Zhongyong Houfu would be happy to marry her, but he still reminded her.
