Chapter 140 Want to Marry Jinyang Princess
Shangguan Yu glanced at Piao Rou and the other maidservants, and signaled Shangguan Ruoli to back away from the screen, but thinking that she couldn't see her, he could only say: "Brother wants to have a few words with sister alone."

"Ah?" Shangguan Ruoli was surprised, and said in his heart that we are not familiar with each other.

Shangguan Yu's face turned red like a pig's liver, thinking that she was concerned about the defense of men and women, he coughed lightly and said, "Then can you make the servants back away?"

Shangguan Ruoli really didn't expect men and women to go up against each other, smiled and said: "My sister doesn't mean that," and said to Piao Rou: "Take them back."

She also wanted to talk to him about Princess Anping's attempt to harm the entire Shangguan family. Although she didn't know whether it was true or not, it was always right to prevent problems before they happened.

After everyone went out, Shangguan Yu coughed lightly, moved his body uncomfortably, his face was so red that he could bleed.

Seeing his constipated appearance, Shangguan Ruoli rolled his eyes secretly, and decided to talk about his own business first, "Brother, my maid went out and met a palace lady who escaped from the imperial palace, she was wandering outside our mansion , the servant girl asked, she is the personal maid of Princess Anping that I rescued."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yu's expression turned serious, and he lost the embarrassment just now, and asked solemnly: "Oh? And then?"

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Princess Anping wanted to kill her because of the incident in the other courtyard. She escaped and sent us a warning in order to repay her kindness. Princess Anping wanted to unite with Sophie and Nanyun Yaoer to deal with the entire Shangguan family."

"Where is she?" Shangguan Yu frowned.

Shangguan Ruoli said: "Let's go, the servant girl followed her for a while, it seems that she has gone out of the city."

Shangguan Yu lowered his eyes solemnly, "I think her words are very credible. Otherwise, if she escapes, there is no need to risk entering the city to deliver the letter. If she is playing tricks, there is no need to deliver the letter, and leave without asking for anything."

Shangguan Ruoli nodded, "I think so too, so it's better to tell Dad and take some precautions."

He also guessed about the emperor's dealing with Shangguan Tianxiao, so she didn't need to remind her.

"Okay! I'll go talk to daddy right away." As he spoke, he got up and was about to go out. After taking two steps, he remembered his reason for coming, and then stopped.

His face was red again, he scratched his head in embarrassment, and said, "I came to look for my sister, and I wanted to ask her for help."

Shangguan Ruoli was puzzled, "Brother, please tell me, as long as my sister can do it, I will do my best."

Shangguan Yu coughed lightly, took a deep breath, and said with determination: "I want to marry Princess Jinyang, can you talk about marriage in front of my father and Princess Jinyang?"

Shangguan Ruoli's eyes lit up uncontrollably, and said with a smile: "That's no problem, I like Zheng Shuyue quite a lot. However, this kind of thing depends on what she wants, does she disagree?"

Shangguan Yu shyly said: "She disagrees, but it's not because she doesn't like me, it's because she is destined to have a malevolent star, to restrain her father, her mother, and her elder brother..."

Shangguan Ruoli disdainfully said, "Bah! I don't believe in those messy things. Destiny is won by myself."

Shangguan Yu showed a warm and gratified smile, "I knew you would support me."

Shangguan Ruoli frowned, "Could it be that father doesn't agree with your marriage?"

In the marriage of this era, it doesn't matter whether the parties agree or not. It can be done with the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.

Therefore, if Shangguan Tianxiao disagreed, it would be difficult.

Shangguan Yu coughed lightly, and said in embarrassment: "I haven't told my father yet. I'm not asking you to check on my father first. Shu Yue's rumors are not good for my parents, so I can't say it."

Shangguan Ruoli nodded slightly, people in this era are superstitious.Regardless of whether Shangguan Tianxiao believed the rumors or not, Shangguan Yu said that he would marry Zheng Shuyue, which meant he did not care about his parents.

"Thank you, sister!" Shangguan Yu thanked him sincerely, and then walked out of the room with his head held high.

After sending Shangguan Yu away, Shangguan Ruoli decided to find out what Shangguan Tianxiao said first, and then went to Dingguo Duke's mansion to visit Zheng Shuyue.She should also visit and thank her for the matter of the Royal Courtyard.

Shangguan Ruoli asked Rejoice to prepare a thank you gift for Zheng Shuyue, and then ordered breakfast.

Before I finished breakfast, I heard commotion outside.

Rejoice trotted in and said excitedly: "Congratulations, miss, congratulations miss!"

"Huh?" Shangguan Ruoli frowned in wonder, and took a mouthful of buns.

Rejoice smiled and said: "The news from the front yard, His Royal Highness Xuan Wang has come to send the betrothal gift!"

cut!What's there to be happy about?
Piao Rou saw that Shangguan Ruoli didn't look happy at all, her face froze, she smiled awkwardly, and said: "Marrying King Xuan is wronging Miss, but King Xuan is really kind to Miss these days."

Sassoon also said yearningly: "His Royal Highness King Xuan looks like a god, extremely dignified, and loves the eldest lady very much. The rest is really not important."

Another little Yancon, Shangguan Ruoli was noncommittal, picked up the porridge bowl and drank the porridge.

Rejoice still couldn't hold back the raging flames of gossip, and broke the news: "His Royal Highness Xuan personally sent the dowry gift! I heard that the dowry team is long! This one has entered the residence of the Great General Zhen Guo, and the other one You haven't left Xuanwang's mansion yet!"

"Come here in person?" This was beyond Shangguan Ruoli's expectation.

For someone with a noble status like Dongming Ziyu, such matters are generally handled by representatives of housekeepers and cronies, and by the Ministry of Rites.

The dowry is also regulated, but the man will add the dowry according to his own financial conditions.

The woman in the back house couldn't leave the front yard because she had nothing to do, and Shangguan Ruoli didn't want to see the betrothal gift, so she finished her meal quietly.

Shangguan Tianxiao entertained Dongming Ziyu, so she planned to go to Dingguo Duke's mansion to find Zheng Shuyue.

At this time, a six or seven-year-old boy ran in.

"Miss!" The servant knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Master Qu invites you to Wutong Courtyard, saying that he found an important relic of Da Furen."

The eldest lady in his mouth refers to the late Xiao Yunluo, the biological mother of the original owner.

The boy was thin, sweating profusely from running, his eyes were shining, clean and thorough.

There are many rules in the big family, men can't enter the backyard casually, so they keep a few servants, put them at the second door, and send messages and run errands to the wives and ladies in the backyard.

Shangguan Ruoli knew that Xiao Yunqing had been sent to a dark prison, but she was the general's wife after all, so this matter should be kept secret.

Piao Rou explained: "The feng shui of Wutong Courtyard is not good, it is not suitable for Madam to recuperate from illness, Madam has moved to another courtyard."

"Let's go and have a look." Shangguan Ruoli nodded, wondering what Qu Xiaohan found Xiao Yunluo in Wutong Courtyard.

Rejoice gave the servant a few copper coins, "Go buy some sugar!"

"Miss Xie!" The servant kowtowed again, got up, and walked away with a bounce.

Shangguan Ruoli took Rejoice and Sassoon to Wutong Courtyard, and was slightly startled as soon as he entered the gate.
