Dressed as the mistress of the Hou family, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

Chapter 132 Rumors of marriage

There was silence in the carriage. Fang Xu leaned against the wall of the carriage, smiling faintly at the corners of his eyes and brows, "Fate is something that cannot be explained clearly."

"I'm afraid only you understand how the Lian family boy feels about you." Fang Xu smiled lightly and said in a gentle tone, "If you think he is worth it, you might as well give it a try."

Xie Wanzhou lowered his eyes, and the fog in his eyes gradually dissipated.

-

The carriage stopped in front of the palace gate. The coachman put on the footstool and helped the master get out of the car.

Lian Yan got off the horse and followed the girl opposite him with his eyes.

"Madam!" Ye Ming saw Fang Xu and trotted up to her with a smile on his face, "Master Lan is here and has been waiting for you in the hall for a while."

Fang Xu glanced at his daughter calmly, nodded politely to Lian Yan, then looked away and walked into the Marquis' Mansion.

"you……"

"you……"

They both spoke at the same time and were startled at the same time.

Lian Yan moved his head, remembering the falling curtain in his mind, feeling a little frustrated, and said in a deep tone, "What are you going to say?"

Xie Wanzhou took a deep breath, not daring to look into his eyes, and whispered, "Tomorrow afternoon, by Qinxin Lake... are you free?"

Lian Yan was stunned, turned around in disbelief, his eyes lit up in vain, "You...are you inviting me to go on a trip?"

Xie Wanzhou's eyes were a little evasive, he bit his lower lip and remained silent.

"I'm free!" Lian Yan rubbed his hands cautiously, with hope in his eyes and a smile on his face again, "Of course I'm free!"

Xie Wanzhou boldly glanced at him, raised the corners of his mouth uncontrollably, and said softly, "Then...see you tomorrow."

"Okay." Lian Yan looked happy and grinned with big white teeth.

Lian Yan stood there, watching Xie Wanzhou enter the house, then reluctantly got on his horse and walked away with three turns.

Xie Wanzhou stood behind the screen wall with a blush on her face.

堂厅

Fang Lan sat on the chair, staring blankly at the tea leaves floating in the cup in front of him.

"elder sister?"

Fang Xu's voice came, calling Fang Lan back to her thoughts.

Fang Lan blinked his sour eyes, looked up, saw his sister, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Isn't it Qiu Shou today? Why did you come back so early? I thought I had to wait for an hour."

"Sister didn't go today, I don't know the details." Fang Xu sat at the top, wearing a tired mask, "I was just a little bit away from seeing my sister."

Fang Lan's eyebrows were solemn, and Liu Ye's eyebrows frowned slightly, "What do you mean by this?"

"Master Lan doesn't know. There were a lot of killers sneaking into Zhulu Paddock today. The lady went up the mountain and overheard the news and almost died!" Su Zi sighed and whispered, "Those people were ordered by Princess Duanyang to kill Madam. .”

Hearing this, Fang Lan turned around and looked Fang Xu up and down, "Are you injured?"

There was a smile in Fang Xu's eyes, and he shook his head slowly, "Don't worry, it's just a near miss."

After hearing this, Fang Lan breathed a sigh of relief, lowered his face, and said in a bad tone, "Duanyang...she is much tougher!"

Fang Xu had a smile on his lips, gently twirling the tea cup with his fingertips, and said softly, "Is there some story between sister and her?"

"It's not a story, I don't care about a madman!" Fang Lan snorted coldly and lowered his voice, "Yuan Di told me before that his imperial sister has to be strong by nature. From childhood to adulthood, no matter what she is, You have to compete with him and the emperor for everything."

<divclass="contentadv"> "If you just have a strong temper, it's not worth it." Fang Lan looked impatient and whispered, "I heard something about her, so I treated her So disgusted."

Fang Xu became interested and looked up, "What's going on?"

Fang Lan leaned forward and whispered, "Do you remember that Duanyang had a consort many years ago?"

Fang Xu nodded, his expression as usual, "Of course I remember."

"The only rumors outside are that he was stupid, fell into the well like crazy, and drowned!" Fang Lan frowned, showing helplessness, "That was just an excuse fabricated by the eloquent people in Youyou. The prince-in-law was not dead at all. He has been tortured to this day. The Dragon Boat Festival is closed, how miserable it will be!"

"Not dead?" Fang Xu lowered his eyebrows and showed hesitation, "That idiot..."

"Of course it's a lie!" Fang Lan had an angry look on his face and slapped his palms on the table, "I heard Yuan Di talk about this before. Before this prince-in-law was the top scorer in high school, he had a sweetheart!"

"The prince-in-law didn't want to be a weak lover, but he was forced to be by the side of Duanyang by the late emperor. With Duanyang's temperament, how could he make it easy for him?" Fang Lan sighed faintly, "It's a pity that such a good seedling could not be made official. , I can’t go back home..."

Fang Xu lowered his eyes and thought, and said softly, "If the consort is still alive, wouldn't he be tortured every day?"

"Who says it's not the case!" Fang Lan held his forehead and sighed, "I only know that in order to temper the arrogance of the consort, Duanyang built some kind of water prison specifically to tame him."

"Water prison?" Fang Xu looked surprised and murmured, "Duanyang didn't come back from studying somewhere..."

Fang Lan's face softened slightly, "Qiu Shou is a big deal. If she dares to arrange an assassination today, no matter how serious it is, the emperor will definitely punish her."

Fang Xu casually raised the teacup, took a sip of warm tea, and said with a faint smile, "Sister, don't worry, I have a solution."

What she wants is more than just punishment.

"Why did sister suddenly come to look for me today?" Fang Xu wiped the corners of his lips, raised his eyes to look at the woman opposite, and said softly, "At this time on weekdays, isn't sister always playing with Chang Ge?"

Fang Lan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered the purpose of his trip, "If you didn't mention it, I really forgot! I came here today to discuss something important with you."

Fang Xu raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes slightly, "What's the matter?"

"Do you remember that the Northwest was defeated the year before last and a proton was sent to them?" Fang Lan said solemnly, with a solemn look on his face.

Fang Xu thought for a moment and nodded slowly, "I just have some impressions."

Fang Lan slapped his thigh, with a sullen expression on his face, "Dayan only narrowly won against Northwest, but now that his vitality is severely damaged, the superiors have long thought of getting married!"

"Previously, I thought it was a pity that the princesses were going to marry into that barbaric land, where they were all golden branches and jade leaves. But who would have thought..." Fang Lan bit her lip, "The harem is full of human beings, and the one with the princess at his knees is actually He rushed to marry off his daughter!"

"The Queen has received a letter, saying that the princess in the palace is only eleven years old. She is four and a half years old this year..."

Fang Xu's eyelids twitched, feeling something bad, and subconsciously sat up straight.

Seeing her serious expression, Fang Lan showed unbearable expression, "The Queen gave me a message, saying that the one above wanted to choose a noble girl from the capital, give her a title, and marry her to the northwest in the name of a princess."

"Our family's evening boat is about to arrive...it's still on the list..."

Fang Xu curled his lips and smiled, with a look of ridicule on his face, "Dayan prides itself on its vast territory and numerous talented people, but it has actually fallen to the point of exchanging women for peace."

"Why, the royal family's daughter Jin Gui, doesn't the daughter of our ordinary family have a life?"
