Chapter 71:
Wei Hanzhang's heart was pounding at the thought, and he couldn't help but raise his head, just in time to meet Jiang's eyes.
Seeing the shock in her daughter's eyes, Jiang knew that she understood the profound meaning of Wei Ping's move as the person in charge of the Hou Mansion. She gently stroked her daughter's hair and praised, "My son is smart."
“…” Wei Hanzhang vaguely figured out the plot direction of the original work. He stared blankly at the kind-hearted Jiang in front of him, and his eyes slowly turned red.
The mother is just as valuable as the daughter. If there is anything great, she can do it!
Didn’t Xiao Boqian say that he would not marry anyone but her?
In any case, there is no choice between the left and the right. Entering the East Palace is a predetermined outcome, and Enze's mother's family is also the right one.
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhang paused in thought.
…Isn’t she the one who broke the situation?
If she had not appeared, Xiao Boqian would not have wanted to marry. Is he really childless?
Then you chose Wei Hansu’s ‘noble son’? Will Wei Heng, the male protagonist of the original work, eventually become the grandfather of the new emperor?
Is this the real reason why the heroine Shen rises to the top?
These questions have troubled Wei Hanzhang for a long time. She is a girl who loves to study, especially things that are closely related to herself. If she can't find the answer, she will keep thinking about it.
If the facts are really what she speculated, then Wei Hanzhang will have to re-examine Xiao Boqian's feelings for her.
More than just liking it, right?
It’s not just teasing on a whim.
That kind of love is simply "you have to do it", and it wouldn't be possible if it weren't for her.
If she didn't show up, he wouldn't want anyone...
Wei Hanzhang didn't believe it. How could there be such a man in this world?
…………
In recent days, Wei Hanzhang has been disturbed by the troubles of his children and his family, and he has been very unhappy.
He neither went to the next door nor wanted to go out to meet other noble ladies in the capital. He declined several flower viewing banquet invitations from his friends. Every day he either stayed in Tingfeng Pavilion doing nothing or went to Xunwei plays with frost.
Her wedding was approaching, and the house was decorated with red silks and lanterns. It looked very festive, but Wei Hanzhang felt inexplicably nervous and anxious. This was not the first time she had seen a wedding of this era, but every time Everyone will feel depressed.
However, the person involved was not nervous at all. Even Wei Hanye, who was married, made a special trip home to stay with his sister for two days. Wei Hanshuang also looked calm and calm.
Every time Wei Hanzhang went to her yard, he would see her either leisurely playing with the expensive flowers and plants in the yard, or looking through the account books. They were all her private property after her marriage. It was better to take a look at them first so that they could be used in the future.
Perhaps Wei Hanzhang was inspired by his goddaughter from the Qian family. During these days, Wei Hanzhang was also pulled by the Jiang family to test the methods of checking account books and managing the central government that she had learned at the Jiang family.
Otherwise, if one day as a married woman, if she cannot even check her accounts, it will be a joke if she is deceived by a ruthless slave and takes advantage of her master.
It was difficult for Wei Hanzhang to look at the accounts. When she was in the Jiang family, Mrs. Jiang had made plans to leave her granddaughter in Xuzhou and marry her into the Gu family.
Gu Yunran is the eldest son of the direct line of the Gu family. When Wei Hanzhang married, she became the wife of the Gu family.
Mrs. Jiang is eager to teach her granddaughter how to be a housekeeper. How could she really be willing to not know the common things about raising her precious granddaughter so that others can manipulate her.
After all, it is not easy to be the mistress of a wealthy family. Without any means, how can she convince the servants below her to be loyal and convinced, let alone manage her husband’s concubines.
If you marry into a family with a more complicated relationship, you will have sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law in each house, all kinds of twists and turns, and you will have to have seven or eight eyes to distinguish the meaning of a sentence.
Jiang naturally would not choose a husband whose daughter had a too chaotic inner house. The delicate daughter of her family had been supported and supported since she was a child. She had never seen the intrigues of real housewives.
When it comes to her daughter's marriage, she doesn't ask for a high lintel. She only asks that the other party's family be harmonious, and it is best not to be the eldest son. When the families are separated in the future, the young couple can close the door and live a good life, and it will be better to be wealthy and idle for the rest of their lives. This is Jiang's wish for her daughter's future as a mother.
I don’t seek wealth and honor, I only seek peace and stability.
…………
Wei Hanzhang lived a fulfilling life in his boudoir, but that was not the case with Xiao Junzhan.
During this period, not only did Ning Hai and other palace servants become more careful when serving, but even the more sensitive courtiers noticed that His Highness the Crown Prince seemed to be in a bad mood recently.
In the past, although His Highness was indifferent and showed no emotion or anger on his face no matter what happened, he was still very gentle and generous towards his ministers. However, in recent days, he seems to be more cold and serious.
The most obvious change is that there is a lower tolerance for some mistakes that were not punished before.
After the execution of two veteran ministers for dereliction of duty, the officials of the Manchu Dynasty became more cautious when running their errands, for fear that they would be the next to be punished.
At the five-day umrah meeting, the censors, who usually like to get involved in trivial matters, were extremely conspicuous and did not dare to touch their brows.
Changji Hall.
Ning Hai brought a pot of hot tea and whispered: "Your Highness, the two old marquises are waiting outside the palace."
Xiao Junzhan paused for a moment and said, "Inform them to come in."
Ning Hai accepted the promise and left. After a while, Zhongyong Hou Weiping and Yongle Hou Shen Xing entered the palace together, knelt down and prostrated: "Your Highness, peace be with you."
“Get up.” Xiao Junzhan’s eyes fell on the Wei plane.
He was born in the military, and although he is already in his sixties, Wei Ping is well maintained, has a good manner, and does not look old. He looks like a strong-willed man.
Thinking of the news from Ning's poster, Xiao Junzhan looked at the younger Shen Xing on the other side and said lightly: "I heard that there is something happy happening in your two beloved ministers' houses recently?"
Happy event?
Wei Ping and Shen Xing were both startled and quite flattered.
How can His Highness know about the marriage of the children and grandchildren of their two families, and send them a message to express condolences?
Or, does it have a deeper meaning?
Wei Ping was older. He thought about it and took the lead: "There is a marriage of a young son and a daughter. I asked His Highness to keep it in mind. I am not very worried."
Xiao Junzhan's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I've seen such a happy event. I wonder what day Wei Qing is marrying his granddaughter, and Gu Ye went to ask for a glass of water and wine."
"!!" Wei Ping was so shocked that he couldn't help but raise his head, and met Xiao Junzhan's gentle smile. He cupped his hands repeatedly and said happily: "The wedding is in three days. With His Highness's love, my whole family will definitely sweep the couch to welcome you."
Ning Hai on the side held a jade Ruyi in both hands and walked to Wei Ping in a few steps.
Xiao Junzhan said: "Since it is a wedding wine, this jade Ruyi should be used as a blessing for your granddaughter."
…What kind of day is it today? I went out in the morning and didn’t see any magpies chirping.
Wei Ping was so surprised and happy that he couldn't suppress the curvature of his lips. He took the reward respectfully and said, "I would like to thank Your Highness on behalf of my granddaughter."
