Princess Huaying greeted Lu Wanzhi and said, "The second sister's marriage is finally settled, she is the grandson of Taishi Xia's family."

Lu Wanzhi said: "Isn't the grandson of Taishi Xia's family still a child? I remember seeing him last time and he was not as tall as my shoulders. He should be much younger than Lu Baoying?"

Hua Ying smiled and said, "Grandmaster Xia's grandson will be seventeen after the Chinese New Year. You must have met him when he was young."

Lu Wanzhi also smiled and said, "It's true that I haven't seen him for five or six years. I didn't expect that he could become my brother-in-law."

Lu Wanzhi and Huaying entered together, inside, Lu Baoying was looking at the New Year gift from Xia's family, blushing at Lu Yunxuan's joke.

Seeing Lu Wanzhi's return, Lu Yunxuan smiled and said, "Sister!"

Lu Wanzhi walked up to Lu Yunxuan and said, "I heard the two of you laughing from afar, this is..."

Lu Yunxuan smiled and said: "This is a New Year's gift from the Xia family to the second sister. Their marriage has already been decided in February next year."

Seeing Lu Baoying's shy expression, Lu Wanzhi said, "How come you have made a marriage arrangement with the Xia family's grandson?"

Lu Baoying said: "Some time ago, he fell into the lake, and I rescued him. He insisted that I should be responsible for whether the man and woman would marry or not, so the marriage was settled like this."

Lu Wanzhi said, "Do you like him?"

Lu Wanzhi also felt that it was inappropriate to ask such a question, but the Xia family's grandson was five years younger than Lu Baoying, and Lu Baoying's temperament was not able to accept a child.

Besides, the Xia family's rules are no less than their Lu family's rules, if Lu Baoying doesn't like it, it's a bad fate...

Lu Baoying said: "What do you mean, do you like it or not? At my age, the people I introduced before were all widowers, or poor scholars who wanted to use the power of the Lu family to enter the court. Finally, I found a well-matched young man who I didn't dislike. At my age and reputation..."

Lu Yunxuan said: "I think Xia Yubing is a very good person. He is good-looking. He entered the Dali Temple Yamen at a young age. He is only 17 years old. Although His Royal Highness the First Prince recommended him to go to the Dali Temple Yamen."

Lu Wanzhi said slowly: "Dali Temple? Gu Shiyu's subordinates?"

When Lu Baoying heard the words Gu Shiyu, she looked a little unnatural, "Oh, why are you mentioning him so well?"

Lu Wanzhi always felt that this was not an easy matter, but Lu Wanzhi was also happy that her younger sister had made an appointment.

Lu Wanzhi looked at Lu Yunxuan and said, "What about you? I thought you and Meng Ao had made an appointment. I'm afraid it would be difficult for us to rush back to have a wedding in Shanyin. Why haven't we made an appointment yet?"

Seeing that Princess Huaying had already left, Lu Yunxuan told the truth to Lu Wanzhi: "We were supposed to make a marriage, but Princess Huaying..."

Lu Wanzhi said: "What does this have to do with the princess?"

"Sister, you didn't know about it in Shanyin, isn't this the first concubine who has become a monk? Sister-in-law Huaying thought that the first concubine would become a monk only because she still had our elder brother in her heart.

In the past year, Hua Ying's sister-in-law has argued with her elder brother many times to reconcile, and even went to the palace to ask for an order. She and elder brother have not had sex for almost a year..."

Lu Yunxuan lowered her voice and said: "Mother wants to slow down my marriage with Meng Ao, and I'm also afraid that I won't be as comfortable at home after we get married, so let me delay it for a while."

Lu Wanzhi sighed, "Oh."

The emotional entanglement between the four of them, I don't know when it will end.

At night, the Lu family hosted a family banquet, and everyone had a lively meal together. When they returned to the palace, Cheng'er and Yue'er were still reluctant to leave the Lu's residence, so they tricked them into going back to the palace.

As soon as Lu Wanzhi and Zhao Heng arrived at the Chu Palace, Gu Xianqi went out to greet her, "Cousin, sister-in-law, are you two back?"

Seeing Gu Xianqi, Zhao Heng frowned and said, "Gu Xianqi, since Zhizhi and I have returned, the father and king will be taken care of by the two of us, you should go back home as soon as possible, unmarried girls have been staying in other people's homes. Mansion, do you want to get married?"

Gu Xianqi said: "Sister-in-law is pregnant, and you are not good at taking care of others. It's better for me to stay and take care of uncle."

Zhao Heng frowned lightly and said: "I wanted to save some face for you, Gu Xianqi, but let me tell you, I will only have one princess, Zhizhi, in my life, and I will never have another concubine or concubine. You Even if I stay in Chu Palace, I won't take a look at you!"

Lu Wanzhi heard Zhao Heng's words and tugged at Zhao Heng's sleeve.

Zhao Heng said: "Zhizhi, don't be too kind, there's no need to give face to such a shameless cousin."

Zhao Heng didn't want Lu Wanzhi to misunderstand him.

Gu Xianqi repeatedly said: "Cousin, you misunderstood, I never wanted to be your side concubine."

Zhao Heng said: "I don't believe it, you don't want to be my side concubine, what are you doing in Chu Palace? Could it be that you want to be my father's concubine?"

Gu Xianqi smiled lightly at Zhao Heng and said, "Cousin is so wise."

Lu Wanzhi looked at Zhao Heng's face under the candlelight of the lantern, and said from shock to disbelief and then to anger: "I treat you as my sister, but you want to be my mother? Pooh, are you still a little bit polite? That old man is you little uncle!"

Gu Xianqi said: "Little aunt died before I was born, and three years of filial piety for my wife is already loving, not to mention the prince has been guarding for almost 20 years, cousin, you don't want the prince to die alone for the rest of his life, do you? "

Seeing Zhao Heng's complexion, Lu Wanzhi held Zhao Heng's hand and said, "Zhao Heng, this matter is the empress dowager's intention."

Zhao Heng frowned, went back to the room with a dark face, and then said to Lu Wanzhi: "It's not that I forbid him to marry me a younger stepmother, I've already planned to have a stepmother younger than me , but he shouldn't marry the daughter of the Gu family? What is this? What is it that my mother knows in the spirit of the sky?"

"No, I have to go find him!"

Zhao Heng went to the main courtyard of the King of Chu angrily, Lu Wanzhi also chased after her again and again, but it was freezing cold and she was still pregnant, how could she catch up with Zhao Heng's pace, Lu Wanzhi turned to find Gu Xianqi .

Zhao Heng ignored the obstruction of the servants and maids in King Chu's courtyard, and pushed the door in, "I will never agree to you marrying Gu Xianqi as my stepmother!"

The king of Chu said: "Heng'er, what are you talking about? That Xianqi stayed in the palace for you, because it was your aunt and uncle's intention, even if I feel sorry for Wanzhi, I can't ignore your mother's face. ..."

Zhao Hengdao: "Gu Xianqi is also the daughter of the Marquis Gu's mansion after all, how could she be willing to be my concubine? She wants the position of Princess Chu, and her aunts and grandmothers know about it, so it's almost a matter of declaring the marriage .”

The king of Chu was horrified and said: "I will not marry again. After Jiarou left, my heart has long since died. Princess Chu has only Jiarou, and there will be no one else."

Gu Xianqi outside the door looked at King Chu inside and said, "My lord, aunt has been gone for 20 years, and she has been gone for 20 years! Can't you let aunt go? I miss aunt, and I definitely don't want you to be alone forever." People went down."

The King of Chu looked at Gu Xianqi who had tears in his eyes, and ordered Lu Wanzhi to say, "Wanzhi, send her back to Huihui mansion, and send her back now."

Gu Xianqi said with tears all over his face: "My lord..."

Seeing Gu Xianqi's face full of tears, Lu Wanzhi couldn't bear it anymore. She stepped forward to support Gu Xianqi and said, "Sister, go back first."

Gu Xianqi followed Lu Wanzhi into the garden, and cried bitterly: "Why? I like him so much. I have been taking care of him all year. Why?"

Lu Wanzhi asked Gu Xianqi, "Do you like King Chu?"

"I like it. King Chu is the most infatuated person in Chang'an. He is willing to stay for my aunt for 20 years. I fell in love with such a loving man the first time I saw him, even though he is so many years older than me. .”

Lu Wanzhi handed the handkerchief in his hand to Gu Xianqi and said: "But the prince's deep love is only for Chu Wangfei alone, and he won't give you anything. If he marries you, it will just destroy that affection, Xian Sister Qi, you are still young, you will meet the person who loves you deeply, go back."

Gu Xianqi said: "I never thought he would be so unfeeling to me."

Lu Wanzhi said slowly: "Because King Chu's only affection has already been given to someone else."
