NOVEL NEXT Chapter 74:
Especially the scrutinizing look in the eyes of Mrs. Shizi in the Yongle Marquis Mansion, which makes Wei Hanzhang feel like a ghost is burning in his heart just thinking about it.
That’s right, she is a girl who was disowned.
Perhaps from the perspective of this aristocratic circle, it was very difficult for her to find a suitable marriage.
But she really didn’t expect that even her direct grandmother thought so.
If you didn't feel that she was not worthy of the husband of Yongchang Houfu, why would you let your direct granddaughter lower her profile so low?
When I was tea, I didn't feel very much. At this time, I returned to the taste. After that, the humiliation of the consciousness was called Wei Zhangzhang's anger.
She held back the tears that arose from her anger, took a deep breath, and walked in stride.
There are many guests in the house today, and the back garden is very lively. Young girls gather in groups to enjoy the flowers and scenery.
Wei Hanzhang could only give up the plan of taking the soft sedan and walked towards Wei Hanshuang's yard.
Before I had even taken two steps, I heard a shout from behind me, "Miss Ninth, walk slowly."
It was Nanny Wu who was beside Mrs. Liu. She caught up with her in a few steps and said with a smile: "The old lady asked me to go with you to the Sixth Girl's place."
Wei Hanzhang's eyes were still red, and he said with a cold face: "What does this mean?"
Aunt Wu looked around, lowered her head and whispered: "The young ladies from the Yongchang Hou Mansion are all at Miss Six. The old lady said that if you don't know them, ask the old slave to point them out to you." ”
Don’t know anyone?
Who else in the Qian family should she know?
Isn't he the youngest son of Yongchang Hou Shizi? Is this meant to let them look at each other?
Nowadays, the atmosphere is open, and it is not a big deal for two young people to see each other in private, but why did Mr. Liu use such a tough method?
Do you think that you are still unwilling to get married to Gu Yunran, because you are afraid that she will not want to go and stay at home like an old girl?
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhang's already very pale expression turned colder. She looked at the old woman in front of her who seemed to have all the etiquette, but actually had no respect for her, and ordered: "In that case, then Please help me, grandma, fan me."
The sun was shining brightly, and she was reluctant to let Luzhu fan herself. How could she be reluctant to instruct an old naughty slave?
Wei Hanshuang's Jianxia Courtyard is not far from the main hall, but on this stretch of road, Wei Hanzhang met three groups of people in total.
The first two waves were guests who had met each other before, but could not be called familiar guests. After the two parties greeted each other, they went their separate ways.
The last wave he encountered was something Wei Hanzhang didn’t recognize.
“That is the eldest daughter of Duke An Guo, Liu Wanning.” Compared with Luzhu Lulan who just returned to Beijing and didn’t know many people like her, Nanny Wu was still somewhat useful.
Seeing Wei Hanzhang's doubts, he reminded her in a low voice: "She is also the most beautiful woman in the capital."
Although it is not yet known whether Wei Hanzhang and Queen Hairpin can keep this title, for now, Liu Wanning still deserves her title as the most beautiful woman in the capital.
Wei Hanzhang raised his eyebrows slightly and cheered up. He didn't expect that Liu Wanning, the most beautiful woman in the capital, whom he had wanted to see since coming to the capital, but had never been able to meet her due to some strange combination of circumstances, would meet Liu Wanning without any preparation.
Liu Wanning is already in her twenties. Compared with the young girls in the courtyard who are fifteen or sixteen years old, she has become extremely delicate and beautiful. She is wearing a flamboyant red dress, like a gorgeous rose in bloom, and her beauty is dazzling.
Looking at how others were dressed, Wei Hanzhang didn’t feel at all that he was dressed up today...
Liu Wanning seems to have a very enthusiastic temperament. After greeting each other, she took Wei Hanzhang's hand with a smile and said familiarly: "I don't know whose sister she is. She looks unfamiliar when she looks at her from a distance."
Wei Hanzhang raised his hand discreetly, pretending to hold his hair in a bun to avoid her approach, raised a polite smile, and said: "I am the ninth girl of this family, Wei Hanyue's direct younger sister, Wei Hanzhang. "
…
There was a strange silence in the garden. Soon, Liu Wanning seemed to have come back to her senses. She smiled as usual and said, "It turns out she is Jiuniang of the Wei family. She has been famous for a long time. She is indeed as dazzling as the rumors." Maybe she knows it too. Wei Hanzhang's sister, Wei Hanzhang, couldn't hide her wits with Wei Hanyue, so her smile became superficial.
Wei Hanzhang felt better after seeing her. God knows she is really afraid of people who hide their knives in their smiles.
I used to be very curious about the most beautiful woman in the capital, but now that I saw her, I thought that was all.
However, although the Wei and Liu families did not really break up in their argument, it was definitely not a harmonious one. The invitations were probably just superficial. Who would have thought that Liu Wanning would also come to the Wei family for a banquet?
The question just emerged, and the answer was found in the next moment.
Who else could it be for?
His Royal Highness the Prince, Xiao Boqian.
Thinking that the most beautiful woman in the capital was still a popular candidate for the crown princess, Wei Hanzhang suddenly felt extremely complicated.
Speaking of which, whether it is appearance, background, or even age...Liu Wanning and Xiao Boqian are quite compatible.
At least he is better matched than her. She is ten years younger than Xiao Boqian. Under normal circumstances, no man would be unmarried at the age of twenty-five, let alone the heir apparent of a country.
I don’t know how that person managed to wait for such a beautiful woman for many years and still be so iron-hearted.
Moreover, according to her inference from the original work, Liu Wanning did not get what she wanted in the end. Let alone the princess, she probably couldn't even touch the hem of Xiao Boqian's clothes.
Thinking of this, Wei Hanzhang felt inexplicably comfortable, and his eyes towards Liu Wanning became even more complicated.
Just when Liu Wanning was looking at her in confusion, Wei Hanzhang said: "I still have something to do, so I won't disturb Sister Liu from visiting the garden."
After finishing speaking, Wei Hanzhang didn't wait for her to reply. He just nodded slightly and left directly.
…
Xiao Junzhan also arrived at the Wei Mansion at this time. His trip was extremely low-key. On the surface, he only brought Ning Hai with him. Even the carriage he rode was not driven by the prince Luan.
The prince wanted to keep a low profile, so Wei Ping did not show any publicity when he arrived. He only led his two legitimate sons, the crown prince Wei Huan and the second son Wei Heng, to meet him respectfully.
I have been to the Wei Mansion many times, but this was the first time Xiao Junzhan entered through the front door. He glanced at the Wei family, father and son, nodded slightly and said, "I heard that the garden in your Mansion is beautiful, so I went to take a look."
Wei Ping bowed his head and said: "Your Highness is so elegant, I should do it myself..."
Having not spoken to the little girl for many days, Xiao Junzhan was inevitably a little anxious. He was not in the mood to greet his ministers at all, so he said directly: "Take a walk alone, you don't need to follow me."
"this…"
…Why does His Highness look so impatient to enter the back garden of his house?
Wei Ping had a sudden thought. The old politician's thoughts suddenly changed. He even thought about whether a political opponent had dug a hole in the lotus pond in the backyard, right?
Wei Pian showed hesitation. Seeing this, Xiao Junzhan glanced over and said, "What? What are your concerns, Ai Qing?"
“No, no, no,” Wei Ping denied repeatedly and said, “Your Highness, please.”
Xiao Junzhan turned away his eyes and led Ning Hai towards the inner courtyard of the Wei Mansion. When he passed Wei Heng, he didn't know what he thought of. After a slight pause, he changed his mind.
He said: "It's better for Zishu to take Gu for a walk."
