Chapter 51 Blessing (1)

Section 051 Pray (1)

The old lady was shocked by what the emperor told her. How did the emperor know about the inner house of Xue's mansion?

Even the emperor knew about the matter in the inner house, which meant that there was a traitor in the family who was gossiping and slandering the Xue family, which made the old lady extremely angry and disturbed.

She frowned and looked at the old master.

The old Hou Ye sat down angrily, and said angrily: "The whole Shengjing knows that the fifth young lady of the Xue family is going to marry the fifth young master of the Xiao family. The Taifu heard about it, so he sent a memorial to the emperor, asking the emperor to give him a marriage, saying that the fifth young lady is affectionate, the Xiao family can't be unjust, and even asked the emperor to be a matchmaker, saying that they would marry Xue and Xiao!"

The old lady was angry and angry, and her mood swings were even greater than that of the old master: "This...the reason for this matter is not known to many people in the family, how can the outside know?"

"Are you asking me?" Old Hou Ye was even more annoyed, his voice raised a little unconsciously, a little angry at the old lady, "You are in charge of the inner house, so you are asking me?"

One sentence made the old lady's face turn purple.

For more than [-] years of husband and wife, the number of times the old Hou Ye got angry with her can be counted on the fingers, and now because of this matter, he actually yelled at her.

The old lady was both angry and sad, her face was solemn for a while, she hurriedly got off the kang and bowed to the old Hou Ye: "It's my concubine's negligence, please punish me by the Hou Ye."

Seeing the old lady knelt down, the old Hou Ye regretted that his words were too harsh, his voice softened three points, and said: "Get up, it's not your fault!"

Mother Zhan quickly helped the old lady up.

Old Hou Ye knew that his temper was too much, but he couldn't help it.In the case of rage, say more and make more mistakes, the only thing to do is keep silent and suppress your emotions.

The old lady didn't speak either.

The inner room was eerily quiet.

"Teacher Xiao has always wanted to marry Xue's family. He couldn't bring me down, so he wanted to drag me into the water. Didn't Sheng Wenhui also become his in-laws?" After a long time, Old Master Xue said.The mood has calmed down, and the voice has returned to its usual tranquility, "Our family has not responded to the Chen family's marriage, so we say that the two children are not compatible, so let's push it away. If our family doesn't push it, Taifu Xiao will also come up with tricks. What is the Chen family doing? Maybe the imperial decree will come down tomorrow..."

Marriage was bestowed by the imperial decree, Master Xue was not the concubine who voluntarily married his granddaughter to Taifu Xiao, it was a destiny that could not be violated.In this way, the Xue family was prevented from being ridiculed by others, but sympathized with instead.

But Miss Xue Wu's reputation...
The old lady remained silent.

On the second day, as expected, the imperial decree bestowed a marriage on Xiao Xuanqin.

Dong Yuan is making shoes in Shicui Pavilion, and the old Hou Ye's birthday is approaching. The birthday shoes she wants to give to Lao Hou Ye have not been finished yet, and they have been rushing to work day and night in the past few days.

Hearing that Xue Dongrong was married to Xiao Xuanqin, Dong Yuan was shocked, and asked Qiangwei who was serving in front of her, "Go and find out what's going on."

Qiangwei went away in response, leaving only Honglian and Ziwei serving in front of her.

After Ju Hong got married, Dong Yuan raised Hong Lian and Zi Wei, who were working behind Qiang Wei, as second-class maidservants, and now they serve her personally.

Ziwei is taciturn, but has great eyesight. She rushes to do everything, has a bright eye, and never needs orders from others; Honglian is gentle and honest, with a somewhat orange-red temper.

After Qiangwei went out, she came back about half an hour later.

"Miss, the ginkgo beside Fifth Miss has been sent to the Zhuangzi." Qiangwei said to Dong Yuan.

Dong Yuan frowned, motioning for Qiangwei to continue.

"We stay at home all day and don't know what's going on outside. I heard that there are rumors in Manshengjing that the fifth young miss of the Xue family is in love with the fifth young master of the Xiao family. If the old lady disagrees, the fifth young lady throws herself and hangs herself. His heart is chaste. The Fifth Young Master Xiao said that Miss Xue Fu has feelings for him, and he will be righteous to Miss Xue and will not wrong her, so he asked the imperial decree to marry him..." Qiangwei whispered to Dong Yuan .

Dong Yuan was astonished, but secretly praised Fifth Young Master Xiao: Hearing such rumors, he didn't brag about his own charm, but highly praised Miss Xue Wu's affectionateness, and even invited the imperial decree to marry him to save Miss Xue's face.

Usually, when encountering such a situation, a girl would be said to be disobedient, but in the mouth of Fifth Young Master Xiao, she became a loving and strong girl!
If this matter is the meaning of Xiao Wuzi, then this person is not that unbearable.

This made Dong Yuan feel better.

But she still didn't understand.

She has been in this world for almost six years, Xue's mansion and Xiao Guogong's mansion have never been in contact, and the fifth young lady does not leave the door all day long, how does she know about the fifth young master Xiao?
These thoughts circled in her mind, and she suddenly understood the reason why Xue Dongrong hanged herself a few days ago.

It turned out that Xue Dongrong didn't want to die, but wanted to find a gimmick to make things bigger!

Dong Yuan couldn't help sweating, she was really bold!
If Fifth Young Master Xiao didn't describe her as a loving and strong girl, but passed her down as frivolous and unruly, and refused to marry her, she would really have only a dead end.Who would want her in the future?
"Fifth Sister is a weird person!" Dong Yuan shook his head and asked Qiangwei, "Did Gingko spread the word?"

Naturally, Xue Dongrong ordered it, and Gingko did it.

"I don't know." Qiangwei said, "The old lady just asked someone to send the ginkgo away, and didn't say anything else." Then she remembered something, and said, "Master Hou doesn't want to do Miss Wu's wedding, so let the Xiao family invite the Ministry of Rites and The Qin Tianjian will jointly manage it, and the Xue family will ignore it."

When Dong Yuan heard this, he couldn't help sighing again.

She really couldn't figure out what this cousin was going to do.

Not only Dong Yuan couldn't figure it out, but everyone in the Xue family didn't understand what Miss Fifth wanted to do.

"The old lady also said that Mrs. Huizhen is not allowed to visit the mansion in the future, and my wives and ladies are not allowed to go to Huiquan Nunnery..." Qiangwei said again.

Dong Yuan was still confused.

And Kyoto is full of gossip.

Dong Yuan, who lives in a boudoir, occasionally hears a thing or two from Qiangwei.

Because the Xiao family took the initiative to create public opinion for this matter, there were not many words to belittle Miss Xue Wu in Jingdu. A woman who admires vanity, but a loyal and loyal person.

There are also a few who say that Miss Xue Wu has no shame.

After talking for more than half a month, Miss Xue Wu and Xiao Xuanqin's marriage was finally set on the first day of July in the fourth year of Yuanchang.

The old Hou Ye and the old lady were very angry, and the Xue family has been a little depressed recently.

Time changed, and it was March in a blink of an eye. Shizi's wife recovered from her illness, and the first thing she did was to inform everyone that Mr. Xue's 66th birthday was not going to be arranged.

From the death of Xue Dongwan, the tenth girl of the twelfth lunar month last year, to this year when Xue Dongyuan bestowed the marriage of Sheng Xiuyi and Xue Dongrong bestowed the marriage of Xiao Xuanqin, Xue's house has been in trouble.

Old Master Xue doesn't want to hold a high-profile birthday banquet anymore.

The old lady said to the family members: "Since Lord Hou's birthday banquet will not be held, on March [-]th, let's all go to Yonglian Temple to offer incense and pray for Lord Hou!"

Everyone said yes respectfully and solemnly.

After leaving Rongde Pavilion, everyone couldn't hide their joy.

There is Yonglian County in the suburbs of Shengjing. It is about five hours away from the capital. It takes one day to go back and forth, and one night to stay in Bandao at night.There is a mountain in Yonglian County, with steep and steep peaks, and a mountain road has been built. There is a Yonglian Temple, where incense is extremely strong. Every year, the queen mother and empress go to pray for blessings.

Those who can enter Yonglian Temple are either rich or expensive.

The female family members of the Xue family lived in the inner house for a long time, and they all wanted to go out to see Shengjing; now it is the warm spring season in March, and who is not happy to go to the famous Yonglian Temple?
Lian Dongyuan couldn't help being happy.

On the fifth day of the third lunar month, Imperial Concubine Xue asked her servants to give her a birthday gift.

Mrs. Shizi went to the palace to thank her, and told the Empress Dowager and Concubine Xue that the Xue family did not plan to hold a birthday banquet, but only went to Yonglian Temple to pray for blessings.

Just in the early afternoon of that day, the emperor also came to the Empress Dowager's Compassionate Palace to pay his respects, and heard that the Xue family wanted to go to Yonglian Temple with his family.

On the tenth day of March, Concubine Xue Guifei said that she had a dream and she missed Mrs. Shizi very much, so she asked Mrs. Shizi to enter the palace.

It wasn't until Youzheng that Mrs. Shizi came out of the palace.

After she came back from the palace, she went to greet the old lady.

It happened that Dong Yuan was chatting and laughing with the old lady, and Mrs. Shizi's eyes were a little dark and she turned around Dong Yuan twice.

"Is the imperial concubine alright?" the old lady asked Mrs. Shizi with a smile.

"It's okay." Mrs. Shizi laughed, "It's just that the emperor stayed in her palace for four days, and the empress dowager was a little displeased. She hinted at her a few words in person, but she was frightened. I'll talk with her and let her In the future, if you want to persuade the emperor to share the rain and dew, her heart will be at ease."

Then he glanced at Dong Yuan again.

Dong Yuan's heart raised slightly, Shi Zi's wife had never looked at her like this, her eyes made Dong Yuan feel uncomfortable.

Could it be that when Mrs. Shizi entered the palace, the imperial concubine and empress talked about her?

She will leave the cabinet in forty days, so don't make any accidents!
