Whose little lady is so crazy?

Chapter 343 Lord Wei is angry
Seeing Wei Junpei's hesitation, Dong Xiang frowned and whispered, "If she doesn't like the jewelry, ancient books and paintings, and the unique ancient zither, what about the shop and the land deed? Or, Lord Wei, do you know where she often goes? I'll see if any of my sons are close to that place and help her buy a house?"
The question had come to this point, and Wei Junpei felt that it would be bad if he didn't speak up: "Prime Minister, based on my understanding of that girl, she seems to like yellow and white things more."
Is it so vulgar? Dong Xiang was startled, and then he thought that the girl was a woman of the underworld. If she liked elegance, she would not come out to venture into the world. Moreover, she did not have any expensive accessories on her head or body. The most eye-catching thing was a soft whip and a sword that looked quite simple.
"My lord, she is not greedy for money. She rescued seven little beggars, one of whom is my grandson Kaiyang. There are six more to support." Lord Wei was afraid that people would misunderstand Hong Xiaoduo, so he quickly explained.
So that's how it is. Gold and silver are indeed the most suitable.
"Then, how much is appropriate?" Dong Xiang asked again.
In fact, after saying this, he felt a little regretful that he shouldn't have asked.
He is the savior of his son, and human life is priceless. How much he wants to give depends on his sincerity, just give a high amount.
This question makes him, as the prime minister, seem both cunning and stingy.
The reason why I asked this question was because I knew that the girl was also the benefactor of Wei Junpei's family and the only grandson. The Wei family would definitely express their gratitude, so I could just refer to it and add more.
Another reason is that because of that girl, the relationship between the Wei family and the Dong family became closer.
They were all beneficiaries of that girl, so they felt like they were one of her family.
Hearing this, Lord Wei looked around. This was the area where he handled government affairs, and his subordinates would not approach casually. At this distance, if the sound was not particularly loud, they would not be able to hear clearly what was being said.
When Dong Xiang saw his reaction, which was full of suspicion, he was still thinking, what he was asking was about thanking the benefactor, not bribery, so was it necessary to be like this?
"My Lord, you have guessed that the matter of the person in the cold palace is related to that girl, right?" Lord Wei asked in a low voice.
Prime Minister Dong nodded. Empress Gao, who had been banished to the cold palace for several years, was suddenly taken out by the emperor. The most favored Concubine Yun, who sinisterly framed the empress, was sentenced to death. Imperial Physician Tan committed suicide.
This reversal happened neither too early nor too late, just during the days when the banquet was held in Wei Mansion and Minister Gu took leave and stayed at home.
Based on these alone, Prime Minister Dong did not connect the baby with that girl. But later, news came from the clan house that Empress Gao gave birth to a prince, while Imperial Concubine Yun gave birth to a princess, and it was Imperial Concubine Yun who arranged to swap the babies.
Although both children are of the emperor's blood, the clan office still has to re-record the royal family tree. Moreover, the prince born by the queen is very likely to be the crown prince.
Regarding the exchange of the two children, no one was publicly announced as to who confessed to it. Therefore, when the so-called blood relationship identification technique was spread after the Wei family held a banquet for the grandson to recognize his ancestry, Prime Minister Dong guessed that there was a connection.
But, what is Wei Junpei's intention in bringing up this matter with me now?
"That guy gave the girl a thousand gold coins, three Ganoderma lucidum and two hundred-year-old ginsengs." Lord Wei pointed upwards.
After hearing this, Prime Minister Dong finally understood his intention, which was to tell him to give the amount according to what His Majesty had given!
It's really a ghost. He didn't mention how much he paid the girl, but only how much that girl gave. Who is that girl? Even if he gave 10,000 gold, it wouldn't be too much. After all, it was that girl who asked him to rescue his beloved from the cold palace, clear her grievances, discover the signs of the queen's poisoning, and correct the origin of the replaced princes and princesses.
However, I can afford one thousand gold.
Thinking of this, Prime Minister Dong felt that the emperor was a bit stingy. The queen and the prince were only worth one thousand gold?
"Okay, I have figured it out. I wanted to host a banquet for the girl in my house, but today the two elders in my family took their son to the Huguo Temple to fulfill a vow. And we will start receiving foreign envoys tomorrow, so we may be busy for a few days. Lord Wei, the girl will not leave Beijing for the time being, right?
Forget it, my son is coming back today, let him try to keep him.
In fact, we can invite that girl to a banquet at any time, but it would be too insincere if I am not here. "At the end of his speech, Dong Xiang was afraid that Lord Wei would think that he did not take his benefactor seriously, so he could not help but explain.
"Don't worry, Prime Minister. The girl won't leave Beijing for the time being. You are busy, but she is busy too." Lord Wei said with a smile.
"That's good. I'll leave now. In a few days, you and your family can come to my house with the girl and we can talk again." After saying this, Dong Xiang left in a hurry. Lord Wei couldn't help laughing when he saw Dong Xiang's back. He imagined what the prime minister would look like tomorrow when he found out that he said the girl was busy. However, he would know tomorrow, and he would be there tomorrow.
You guys look down on women, and tomorrow I’ll let you open your eyes, and she’s just an unmarried little girl!
At noon, Lord Wei had a quick bite to eat at the Ministry of Personnel, and spent the entire afternoon clearing up the backlog of government affairs.
In the evening, he got on the carriage of the mansion excitedly, thinking that the family and the girl would sit at the same table for dinner, and the atmosphere would be so good to talk and laugh. Eat without talking? That doesn't exist in the Wei Mansion!
When he arrived at the gate of his house, he got off the carriage and rushed to the front hall, but he only saw his wife and daughter-in-law there.
"Zi Zheng hasn't come back yet? How come this guy is busier than me?" Wei Zi Zheng said casually after sitting down.
Before the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law could respond, she continued, "Where are Xiaoduo and Kaiyang? Are they fishing in the lotus pond again? Ask someone to call them back. Someone, tell the kitchen to start cooking. We won't wait for Zizheng. After dinner, take the two kids out for a walk to digest the food."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his wife and daughter-in-law looking at him strangely.
"What's wrong?" Lord Wei was puzzled. Was he too unstable just now?
"The two children are not in the house. Prince Mu came and took them out. They didn't even have lunch in the house. Before he left, he said he wouldn't be back for dinner and there was no need to wait for them." Qi looked at her husband and told him. Sure enough, the smile on his face immediately fell.
Lord Wei was silent for a moment, then slapped the coffee table and said, "Isn't the third son of the Marquis of Fu'an very popular with the emperor? Why is he so idle recently? Hasn't he read the Book of Rites? Doesn't he know the strict rules between men and women?"
"Father, don't be angry. Didn't you also say that Prince Mu has a good character? I'm afraid that your daughter-in-law likes him and Xiaoduo. They two are quite a match." Hua said quickly.
"What do you mean by fear? It's what I saw. No wonder he stood up that day. It turns out he had evil intentions at that time. They are quite a match. How come they are a match?" Lord Wei said angrily.
Qi glared at her husband helplessly and said, "What you said is true. Xiaoduo is a woman of the Jianghu, but I think she is ten thousand times better than those ladies from wealthy families. How can she not be worthy of the son of Marquis Fu'an?"
"What? We have been married for so many years, how could you misinterpret my meaning like that? Where did I say that Xiaoduo is a woman from Jianghu and not worthy of the son of Marquis Fu'an? I meant that Mu Rongjing is not worthy of our Xiaoduo.
Xiaoduo is a beautiful and kind person with a good personality. She is much more capable than that boy. No matter how capable he is, the queen has been in the cold palace for several years, and he did not help the emperor to get the queen out. It was not solved with just Xiaoduo's effort.
And the case of Dong Xiang's youngest son, a difficult case that hadn't even started before the three courts began to investigate, was solved as soon as Xiao Duo stepped in. "Lord Wei became more and more excited as he spoke.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other helplessly and were worried. How to persuade her when she was so angry?
The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law chatted during the day, hoping that Prince Mu could win Xiaoduo's heart so that she could stay. As for Kaiyang's brothers, sisters and little sisters, they could just bring them over as they could support them.
But why did the old man react so strongly?
Whether it's his family background, appearance, talent, or character, Prince Mu is a perfect match for Xiaoduo. Judging from Princess Fenglin's attitude, she probably has the same idea.
How nice it is that the man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried!
If the other party shows such signs, shouldn't we try to bring them together?
……
After night fell, the carriage of the Marquis of Fu'an's Mansion slowly stopped in front of the Wei Mansion. Mu Rongjing got off the carriage first, took Kaiyang, and then watched Hong Xiaoduo jump off the carriage nimbly.
"Thank you, Prince, for taking us out to play for another day. We will receive the foreign delegation tomorrow. You will be there too, right?" Hong Xiaoduo said with a smile, holding Kaiyang's hand.
"What are you thanking me for? It's Rongjing's honor to be able to play with Miss Hong and Young Master Kaiyang. I'll be here tomorrow too. Go in and have a rest early. See you in the palace tomorrow." Mu Rongjing said with a smile.
Hong Xiaoduo turned to Kaiyang and said, "Tell Prince Mu that we'll meet tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow, Prince." Kaiyang waved at Murongjing.
The coachman quickly unloaded the things from the carriage and handed them over to the doorman of the Wei Mansion. They were all bought by the prince while shopping today.
Under the lanterns outside the Wei Mansion, a tall young man watched the two figures, one big and one small, walking in, with satisfaction, reluctance and expectation in his eyes.
Tomorrow, we will see...
Good morning! I’ll update twice today, with a five-minute interval!
