married daughter

Chapter 189 The Truth
Dai Ming stood under the tree with his hands behind his back, the setting sun cast a soft halo around his body, and the lake blue gown was caressed by the breeze, and the sleeves of his clothes fluttered.Seeing Ruan Yunting looking over, she nods her head and smiles, her thick eyebrows stretch out, her eyes are as bright as stars, she is not the most handsome person, but she has a convincing aura about her, like the wind of nature, gentle and pure.

Just now outside the imperial study, she didn't see this person clearly, but now she has some new understanding of such a gifted scholar who has been in the official residence since the fourth grade and is also an editor at the age of 17.As the saying goes, "There is a poetic spirit in the belly", and it is most appropriate to apply this saying to Deming.

"Mr. Dai." Ruan Yunting saluted from afar.

Dai Ming returned the salute, and when his eyes touched the woman who looked like an orchid in the empty valley, his eyes flickered for a moment.

"Miss Ruan."

"I don't know what the young master ordered?" Ruan Yunting didn't like to beat around the bush. Today's affairs are already complicated enough, so there is no need to add trouble to herself.Moreover, educated talents like Deming should be either extremely pedantic or have different ideas from others.She was a little curious.

Dai Ming walked forward slowly, with a low voice and a modest smile, he said, "I have something to explain to Miss Ruan, it will be beneficial to both you and me."

"Sir, please tell me, I will listen with all my ears."

When he came closer, Ruan Yunting stepped back two steps without a trace. This person has a strong sense of presence and a kind of oppressive force.

Seeing this, Dai Ming no longer leaned forward, just stood with his hands behind his back with a smile on his face, looked down at the woman in front of him, and said softly: "Actually, what happened today was ordered by the emperor. I often go to the palace to report the "Inquiry Fu Dian" to the emperor." The emperor also likes to play chess with me, but he has never played more than one game in a row, and I knew something was wrong, he was waiting for someone."

Ruan Yunting lowered her eyes and listened quietly to him.

"Then the emperor told me that he would give me a good woman as a concubine today. I guessed at the time that this matter had something to do with my father. Because I didn't want to marry a wife, my father and mother tried to persuade me several times to no avail. I was too anxious this year. I have talked about this matter with the emperor again and again. But when the former emperor talked to me, I always refused."

"Then why didn't you refuse today?" Ruan Yunting looked up at him.

Dai Ming met her sparkling eyes, turned his eyes away self-control, and said: "Today's situation does not allow me to refuse. Lord Yu participated in it and pulled the red line. He is my sister's future father-in-law. I am married to Lord Yu's family. There are many places where my father will be restrained. No matter how willful I am, I can't trap my father in difficulties, saying that the emperor only gave me a woman as a concubine." After a pause, Dai Ming turned to Ruan Yunting, "I just I didn't expect this person to be you."

Ruan Yunting smiled and didn't say much.Because she didn't know what to say.

Dai Ming said solemnly: "I have heard about the girl for a long time. I was there when the girl from Yuhuayuan cleverly solved the problem of the envoy of the Xiwu Kingdom. Later, I heard a lot about the girl. I have long wanted to make friends with the girl. I have no chance to see you. Letting the girl marry as Dai Ming's concubine is really wronging the girl, but the emperor's order is hard to violate, and there must be something decided by Prince Yu, so we have no choice but to accept the order. Fortunately, there are still two days before the wedding. In two years, many things can be done in two years. If the girl is not willing to follow me two years later, we can try our best to be considerate at that time, and I believe there will be a turnaround. If the girl is willing to be wronged, I will definitely treat the girl with all my strength."

Speaking of this, Dai Ming smiled very gently: "My family is small, there are only parents and younger sister, a family of four, and a dozen servants and servants, and the girl will definitely not be involved in endless battles in the back house. At this point, Deming stopped talking, and only said: "This is what I want to say next."

Ruan Yunting still lowered her head, she didn't expect that Dai Ming would have such an upright personality, thinking that he was an arrogant literati, and he didn't bother to force a woman to follow him, and he was right, there are still two years left, everything will turn around , anything can change.

"Young Master, I understand." Ruan Yunting saluted unhurriedly, and said, "It's getting late today, so I'll take my leave first."

"Girl please." Deming returned the salute.

Seeing Ruan Yunting's slender back walking away, Dai Ming's Chang Sui Funing came to him with a playful smile, "Master, you said that Miss Ruan is silent, is she willing or not?"

Deming walked towards the carriage, "Let him go, whether you like it or not."

Funing chuckled, "My lord, you said it lightly. Over the years, so many ladies from famous families have come to you, so that you dare not show your face in the academy. How many times have the master and wife persuaded you to get married? The good girl introduced a group, You just don’t want to, but you can talk so much with Miss Ruan today. You also said that you let her go? The youngest one won’t believe it.”

Dai understood him with a look: "Speak up."

When Ruan Yunting returned to the mansion, it was almost Xu time. She had just entered the door, and before she could greet the old lady at the Pine Age Hall, the imperial decree from the palace had already been issued.

The old lady, the eldest lady, the second wife and the third wife led a group of female relatives to the front yard, and received orders from the third and second masters who had already set up incense cases.When they heard that Ruan Yunting was entrusted to Dai Ming, the secretary, young supervisor and editor-in-chief of "Wen Fu Dian" as a noble concubine, and they got married after the ceremony, they were stunned.

The Xu family and the Dai family had little contact, and only met each other at banquets a few times. Why did the emperor suddenly decree that Ruan Yunting betrothed to a talented person like Dai Ming?

It is said that since Dai Ming was 15 years old when he wrote "Ruo Lan Ba ​​Fu", people have been proposing marriages. Many princes' daughters, noble families and ladies all admired his talent and flocked to him. Talent and fame can be said to spread far and wide.But Deming is low-key and introverted, doesn't show up often, and has a weird temper. Now that he is about to get married, he still doesn't want to get married.Such a golden son-in-law in the eyes of so many people, the emperor would order Ruan Yunting to be his concubine!
The third wife inevitably felt dissatisfied and compared.Dai will be seventeen next year, and he will be the secretary and junior supervisor. From a fourth-rank official, his future is limitless.The third master has been only a fifth-rank secretary Cheng for many years, and it is very likely that he will be like this for his whole life.Comparing the two, she is really jealous of Ruan Yunting, marrying a talented man as a concubine is better than marrying a mediocre man to be an unfavored regular wife, who stays alone every night!

The old lady stood up and looked deeply at Ruan Yunting. The eyes of everyone were also very strange.

The second wife and Xu Ningqiao glanced at each other. In fact, Ruan Yunting's background made her a good match for marrying Dai Ming as a noble concubine.It's also a happy event.The two first came forward with a smile and congratulated her.There were two precedents, the eldest wife and the second grandmother also smiled and congratulated, and their attitudes were much more polite when talking to Ruan Yunting.

Waiting for everyone to talk and gossip, the old lady said: "Ting'er and I come into the house, and the rest of the people can go to rest."

Everyone retreated knowingly.

In the room, the old lady was sitting on the Arhat's bed, and immediately asked, "Ting'er, what's going on?"

Ruan Yunting knew that this matter could not be concealed, so she could only talk about it from the day when Shi Ziye chose the concubine, until today it was suddenly reported to the palace and was chosen by Dai Ming.She didn't express any opinions, but just told the facts plainly. The old lady has sharp eyes and can guess the meaning.

After she finished speaking, the old lady was silent for a while, then sighed, and said: "Man is not as good as God." She originally wanted to keep Ruan Yunting for the draft, but now she can't.

Ruan Yunting lowered her head and said, "Ting'er never expected such an accident."

"Ting'er, come here." The old lady smiled lovingly and waved to Ruan Yunting.

Ruan Yunting raised her head, looked at the old lady's kind but meaningful smiling face, with a coquettish smile on her face, and came to the old lady, "Old ancestor."

"Hey, your marriage has always been the most worrying thing for my grandma. Now that God has given it to you, I feel relieved. After all, you have an unknown father and a low family background. Marrying Dai Ming as a noble concubine is also a good match. And when you get engaged to the Dai family, many problems will be solved. Most importantly, the Lu family will no longer brazenly trouble you, and they will not dare to look at Prince Yu's face."

"What the ancestors said is true." Not only the Lu family, but also Jun Zhaoyan's stepmother, and even the draft picks that have come and gone every year.With Deming as her fiancé, even the eldest wife was more polite to her.

"Forget it, you are a blessed person. Now you can rest easy and study hard. Your fiancé-in-law is a rare talent."

"Yes."

The old lady instructed Ruan Yunting again and sent her back.Each courtyard has its own thoughts, Ruan Yunting guessed it without hearing it, all the way back to Jingsi Garden, just arrived at the door, and saw Ruan Yunlan hurried forward: "Sister, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Let's go in and talk."

Everyone in the entire family already knew the news, and I believe that before tomorrow, everyone in Liangcheng would also know the news.Ruan Yunlan sat on the twig and said anxiously: "Why did the emperor suddenly give you a marriage?"

Ruan Yunting naturally knew that he had doubts, so she told Ruan Yunlan what she had just said to the old lady.

At the end, Ruan Yunlan sighed: "I originally thought you would follow the son of the world. Although I strongly disagree, it is good for you to be happy. Later, I thought it would be good if you followed the fourth young master. I can't imagine the change." It came so quickly. Marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker, not to mention the emperor's imperial decree, which must not be violated. Fortunately, he did not give you to Lu Wenshan, nor did he give you to any old man."

"Yeah." Ruan Yunting smiled and said nothing.

Seeing this, Ruan Yunlan stepped forward and hugged Ruan Yunting shamelessly: "Sister, I don't think you are engaged."

"Sooner or later, there will be such a day." Ruan Yunting sighed and patted Ruan Yunlan on the back, "Okay, brother Lan will work hard in the future, now at least with the support of the Dai family, no one will bully her Let's go."

Looking at Ruan Yunting's forced smile, Ruan Yunlan also felt very uncomfortable: "Sister, if you want to cry, you can cry." It is a fact that they are of low birth, and it is also a reality to be concubines to a famous family, but the reality is usually very annoying. have no choice.

Ruan Yunting's smile grew wider when she heard the words, "Why should I cry? The road is still long, there are still two years left, isn't it?"
