Chapter 107

After a while, the eunuch's announcement came from outside the hall.

——"Your Majesty, the empress is here~"

Accompanied by this shout, the bead curtains of the women's seats on both sides were lifted by the maids, and everyone was surrounded by seven or eight palace maids and four or five ministers.

Looking up again, I saw that the emperor and empress had already taken their seats at the top.

Ye Lingwu looked in the corner, and saw a red-purple figure among the ministers who came in with the emperor and empress. The youth was elegant and elegant, with a gentle and light expression, full of book atmosphere.

Somewhat familiar, as if seen somewhere.

She leaned against Jiang Lanshu and asked, "Sister Lanshu, who is that minister?"

Jiang Lanshu followed her gaze and shook her head: "I don't know."

"Ignorance, ignorance," Lou Zhaorao said with her chin raised, "That is Jiang Wangshu, a grand scholar in front of the palace." She thought for a while, and added, "He was born in the Jiang family in Huainan."

It turned out to be a child of an old aristocratic family.

Ye Lingwu was stunned, no wonder she had a unique temperament.

"If you want me to say that the sixth princess has her eyes covered with lard, the little Marquis Shen doesn't even look down on the little princess, how can she look down on her, but this girl insists on going her own way." Lou Zhaorao said in a contemptuous tone.

After listening to the big gossip, Ye Lingwu calmly moved towards Lou Zhaorao's side, and asked, "How do you say that?"

Lou Zhaorao curled her lips: "That Jiang University scholar came from a noble family. During the few years when he was visiting flowers, Shen Meiren relied on her favor to beat the autumn wind. His Majesty intended to allow him to be the son-in-law of the Sixth Princess. Who knows that the Jiang family has not disliked it. The Sixth Princess On the contrary, she was crying and despising the Jiang family, and she actually despised them for having no official position in the court and no education, so Shen Mei was also neglected by His Majesty for a long time."

Ye Lingwu nodded in agreement, she was indeed immature.

Even she knows that the children of the old noble families in Huainan are no less noble than the nobles of the palace. The sixth princess is just the daughter of a concubine of the eleventh rank. she.

"Miss Zhaolou said that, the sixth princess is superficial. Power and power are not black and white. Although Huainan's aristocratic families have no official positions in the court, they are all famous for centuries. Is it the previous dynasty or the current dynasty, besides the generals of the Zhu Kingdom and the three Dukes of the Fu Kingdom, isn’t the most prestigious family in this court?" Official rank does not mean everything, Ye Lingwu heard what Xuan Nanny said when she was in the moon. , benefited a lot.

Speaking of which, Nanny Xuan is really knowledgeable, and learning accounting theory under her hands is more useful than learning essays under Mr. Wei's eyes.

"Who says it's not!" These words were very much in Lou Zhaorao's mind, so the more she looked at Ye Lingwu, the more pleasing she was. Thinking about it carefully, the little girl in front of her seemed to have never provoked her, so she didn't have to be mean to her.

"I heard from my father that Princess Jiayi and Mrs. Zhao seem to be interested in this Jiang University scholar. Not long after you left the capital, at Princess Shunchang's birthday party, Princess Jiayi and Mrs. Zhao took Jiang Wangshu to chat For a long time, it was obviously the son invited by Princess Shunchang, but someone else took the lead." Lou Zhaorao shrugged as he said.

Jiang Lanshu looked over submissively, more interested than Ye Lingwu: "Is what Miss Lou said true? Then Mrs. Zhao is looking for the third girl?"

"Naturally, it's for Miss Shen. No one in this capital knows that Miss Shen is a concubine. The current status and status of the Jiang University scholar, no matter what, she needs to be matched with the prostitute of the Houfu." Lou Zhaorao gave her a white look. .

Jiang Lanshu and Ye Lingwu were both dumbfounded.

The two were silent for different reasons. Jiang Lanshu was displeased to hear Lou Zhaorao's words because she was a concubine, while Ye Lingwu was worried for Shen Pan'er. It's a pity for such a young girl to be a nun.

Ye Lingwu frowned and took another look at Jiang Wangshu. She felt that this young man was gentle and elegant, with a face like a crown of jade, and a bright future in his career. He might be able to visit the court someday. Shen Pan'er would like it. At least it's better than this dude like Rong Ting.

……

At the formal table, there were staggered toasts and gentle conversation.Underneath, singing and dancing are uplifting, sleeves fluttering; bells and chimes are ringing, and music is melodious.

Sandalwood was lit on the base of the platform, and the smoke was lingering.

Cheng Fei put on a pleasant smile, raised his wine glass and said to Shen Zhan who was beside him: "This glass of wine is to congratulate Lord Shen, you have scared Ling Ya in this battle. In one battle, one fights a bloody way from the beleaguered Zhizhou Mansion, which makes me admire."

Shen Zhan replied: "General Cheng's deeds on the battlefield needn't be underestimated, how can the younger generation impress you."

The two held each other and drank a few glasses of wine. Shen Zhan turned towards him seemingly inadvertently: "General Cheng's only daughter seems to have reached the age of marriage. Why didn't General Cheng take her back to the capital? Is there already Lang Xu in Jiuqu City?"

Cheng Fei patted his forehead and said with a headache: "It would be great if there is, that girl is used to being wild at the border, and her mother can't control her, and let the big girl run outside the city every day."

Shen Zhan said: "In that case, shouldn't General Cheng take her back to the capital? Speaking of which, Jing Yan and your only daughter had a very good relationship when they were young. When you moved your family to Jiuqu City, he still wanted the second aunt to make a noise." to follow."

Cheng Fei raised his eyebrows, and complained: "Speaking of which, that brat Jingyan actually mistook my girl for a boy when he was young. Although my girl has a carefree temper, that brat's eyes don't know how to grow."

As he said that, Cheng Fei rolled his eyes, cleared his throat and said, "My little girl is the same age as Jing Yan, the young master mentioned this, but... your second aunt asked?"

Shen Zhan's long eyelashes drooped, making it hard to see the sadness in his eyes, and he replied: "The second aunt watched the young daughter of the Cheng family grow up, and General Cheng and the eldest lady also watched Jing Yanchang grow up, and the two families met again. It's been a long time, but it's quite a good match when talking about it."

Cheng Fei was both surprised and delighted: "...Young Master is right, right! My wife and I grew up watching Jing Yanchang, and our two families really have a close relationship."

Shen Zhan picked up the wine glass with a smile, and said, "There will be a polo match in Ningbeihou's Mansion in a few days, and I hope that General Cheng and his family members will come to the banquet with honor."

"Nature, nature."

Cheng Fei replied, his eyes lit up, his face was full of smiles, his head was dizzy, and he always felt a little unreal. Shen Zhan's sudden words must have been influenced by Mrs. Zhao, otherwise how could it be possible? Worried about Shen Ci's marriage.

To say that there are many sons and daughters in the capital, and Shen Ci's conduct is not excellent, but Cheng Fei likes it from the bottom of his heart. If he can marry Ningbei Houfu, it will be a great joy for the Cheng family.

Cheng Fei was so excited that he was gearing up secretly, he had to write a family letter to go back to Jiuqu City when he went back today, and asked his eldest lady to bring her daughter back to Beijing. This matter must be implemented.

Eating and drinking gradually came to the fore.

There was an argument over there.

"so what?"

"It's nothing, just asking, I said Luo Shangshu, it's true, my wife has to coax and hold it, you are so angry that you went back to your mother's house."

Shen Zhan heard the words, looked over, but heard Luo Shangshu gouged out: "According to what General Liu said, you and your wife have a very deep relationship?"

General Liu rubbed his stubble, and said proudly: "That's natural. Although I am a martial artist, I am not an ignorant person like Luo Shangshu. My wife and I are determined by chess. I played a game of chess at the beginning. , and conquered my wife, who is not like you? If you don’t agree with me, you will be angry and go back to your mother’s house.”

"You, you, you," Luo Shangshu angrily pointed at General Liu's old face, "I won't tell you these things, I'd better have a drink."
