My Cousin is So Weak

Chapter 22 The princess made a happy match

"I'm sorry, I don't think it's serious in the hands of a rough man. I will compensate the princess for this crystal cup."

"Okay, no matter how good it is, it's just a cup. If I really ask you to return a cup to the princess, people outside may not know what to say about the relationship between you and me. As for our identities, it's better to be clean. That's how we do it. Worthy of my future wife.”

Her words were worthy of her words. Although she didn't say who it was at the end, Jiang Shiyuan saw the look Princess Qinghuan gave her deliberately, and she was a little startled.

Why does the princess' eyes seem to be trying to bring the two of them together?

But she only heard about the marriage proposal from cousin Pei yesterday. Even if Princess Qinghuan was very capable, she would not have received the news so quickly, so she immediately calmed down and turned around to see In the past, her eyes were much calmer, as if she was not the one in the middle.

Princess Qinghuan couldn't help but snicker, otherwise Jiang Shiyuan would be someone she valued!

The Pei family is the absolute leader of Da Sui in Hanzhou. If Mrs. Pei comes from Xijing City, they will feel more protection for their royal family. Therefore, she heard about the possibility of marrying Pei Zisu from her father. After hearing the news, I started to think about choosing a person among the noble ladies in the capital who could be worthy of this young hero. Today, I saw that the A-Nian in front of me was very suitable, so I started to think about setting up a match between the two. .

"Little General Pei, how long will you stay this time?"

"Princess, I will return to Hanzhou after my aunt's birthday next month."

"Are you so anxious?"

"It is not easy for people in the army to get a two-month holiday. I dare not delay it any longer."

"So, if you take your wife with you when you go back, I wonder what Commander Pei and Mrs. Pei will think?"

Princess Qinghuan also has a straightforward temperament. Instead of being suspicious and suspicious, it would be better to be more frank and honest. Perhaps Pei Zifeng, who was born as a military general, can reveal some true feelings.

There was a sharp flash in his eyes, and Pei Zichen's originally calm face became a lot more serious. His family members could not make decisions over him, let alone the royal family who wanted to suppress it with power, so he stood up and clasped his fists and said .

"Thank you for your kindness, princess. However, I have my heart set on my own. I have no other thoughts about getting married until the beautiful woman nods my head. Please forgive me, princess."

"Does your heart belong to you? A woman from a noble family in Hanzhou?"

Princess Qinghuan asked tentatively.

"No."

"Where is that from?"

Pei Zisu glanced at Jiang Shiyuan sitting opposite, and then said calmly.

"Xuzhou."

Hearing this, Jiang Shiyuan almost lost her grip on the wine cup, and there was some dissatisfaction on her face. She obviously disagreed with Pei Zichen's approach of putting her on a high ground without her consent. Those words, he said It's okay for Wenyuan Houfu to talk about it. After all, they are their own people and will not spread it at will.

But this is a princess mansion.

If the news leaked out inadvertently, her reputation would probably suffer again. Although she didn't care what people outside said, she didn't insist on turning white into black, so her eyes were stained with a layer of frost, and she looked at When Pei Zifeng came to Beijing, he was no longer as polite and kind as before.

"Aristocratic families in Xuzhou? This princess remembers that there is only the Cui and Xie family, but it seems that there are no girls of the right age in their clan. Could it be that General Pei is interested in one of their branches?"

Faced with Princess Qinghuan's questioning and Jiang Shiyuan's angry look, Pei Zichen chose to remain silent. He didn't want to leave a bad impression in front of his cousin A-Nian, so he spoke.

"Princess, please don't guess. If I can achieve this good relationship, I will make it clear to you and your majesty in person. But there is no definite result yet. If I say the name rashly, I'm afraid it will damage the girl's reputation. This It’s not what a gentleman does.”

Princess Qinghuan heard what he said very much. If men in the world were as straightforward but not reckless as he is, the chats in teahouses in Xijing City would probably be 50 to 60% less lively. "Okay, the princess will wait for the good news from General Pei, but I still want to advise you. It's better to pity the people in front of you than to miss the distant mountains and rivers."

When she mentioned the person in front of her, she looked at Jiang Shiyuan specifically.

Pei Zifeng was so perceptive that he immediately understood what she meant. He was shocked to realize that he had just gotten the wrong meaning, so he said with a smile on his lips.

"What the princess said is true. I will live up to everyone's expectations."

Popularity?

Why is it so popular?

Jiang Shiyuan really disagreed with cousin Pei's confidence, but due to the presence of Princess Qinghuan, she couldn't speak clearly, so she could only drink tea from the wine cup in front of her, unknowingly , the crystal wine jug is empty.

By the time Princess Qinghuan came to her senses, Jiang Shiyuan's cheeks were flushed, her eyes were watery, and she looked at everyone with a hint of affection.

"I forgot to mention, this wine is very strong. Last time I drank alone and was drunk for two or three days. If A Nian drinks this bottle, it will take several hours for people to wake up. Nanny Shen, go and drink it. Clean up the side room and let A-Nian rest for a while."

"Yes, princess."

"As for General Pei, don't you have something important to discuss today? How about going to the study?"

"Follow the princess's orders."

Jiang Shiyuan was helped away by the maids Liuhua and Luluo in a daze. Watching her leave, Pei Zifan showed a little worry in his eyes, but what he wanted to say today was also a major matter related to the national destiny and the foundation of the country. Delay No, so he could only follow Princess Qinghuan and leave first.

In the wing room.

Grandma Shen had someone bring sobering soup and hot water handkerchiefs, and then ordered two maids to wait for orders before she left with peace of mind. Luluo said something distressed.

"Girl is so drunk, how can we go back to the Marquis' Mansion later?"

"The boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. If it doesn't work, we can only stay at the princess's house. It's not unprecedented before. Just send someone to send a message back to the old lady."

Luluo nodded helplessly, there really was no other way.

He twisted the handkerchief half dry, and then wiped his girl's forehead. Seeing that she was a little hot and drowsy due to drunkenness, he sighed and repeated the action just now without any complaints.

It was sunny and sunny outside, but Princess Qinghuan in the study looked gloomy and ugly after hearing Pei Zifan's words.

"Luzhou is one of the princess's fiefdoms. I heard that the princess was considerate of the people and exempted the people from paying taxes. I guess you also have a good life. Therefore, in the case of Tieding, I thought that the princess must not know about it, so I came here to report it. If I hadn't accidentally broken it, only I am afraid that those iron ingots will be turned into something and stuffed into the Huaijiang Dam for repair purposes, but in this case, the people downstream will have no chance of survival, so I also ask the princess to think of a way to do it as soon as possible Get rid of that iron ingot."

Princess Qinghuan's permission to participate in politics was approved by the old emperor himself.

Therefore, the land to the east, including Luzhou, is under her jurisdiction. There have been no natural or man-made disasters in these years. On the contrary, the annual taxes paid account for 20 to 30% of the national treasury. Therefore, although there are widespread rumors among outsiders that the Qing Dynasty Princess Huan had a history of personal misconduct, but no one had ever questioned her ability to govern.

Now that there was such a flaw in the Luzhou iron ingots that Huaijiang was going to use, how could she not investigate thoroughly!

But she wasn't stupid either. She didn't care whether Pei Zicheng's so-called "accidental collision" was true or false at the moment, but she looked at Pei Zicheng with a bit of anger in her eyes.
