Self-righteousness

Leaving Yu's mansion, the lights are just on.

The nights in spring are a little more lively, and people are willing to come out for a walk when the night is not yet deep after being trapped in the whole winter.Fu Cheng went home alone among the sparse crowds. This road that he had traveled for many years was strange to him today.

The lantern hanging on the pole is strange to him, and the distant city wall is also strange to him.It's just because his six gods have no master, and his soul does not return to his body.His soul was lost in Yu's house, in that luxurious bedroom, behind that gray curtain.

Returning home in a daze, Jin Long had been waiting at the door for a long time. Seeing that his feet were a little weak, he went over to help him: "Young master, I've finally made inquiries."

Only then did Fu Cheng wake up, straightened his waist and looked slightly serious: "Say."

"It was originally reported from the 'Jade Pavilion'. I don't know who passed it on. However, the eldest son of the He family often goes there to drink flowers and wine. Last time when Mr. Liang was crowned, I said that I saw a sneaky figure vaguely. Thinking about it now, he is about the same shape as that young master of the He family."

Fu Cheng pondered over it carefully, and after associating He Congfu's pro-marriage with these rumors, he understood what was going on. He wanted to come to their house because he planned to take the bottom line and destroy Fu Cheng's reputation first. marry his daughter...

He sneered, and told Jin Long: "Go to the Liang Mansion and send a message to Mr. Liang, saying that I will ask him to meet tomorrow at the Yu Tower."

With the order, Jinlong turned around and rushed to Liang's mansion.

Fu Cheng went inside, changed his clothes, and went to the big dining hall for dinner.His family has a small population, a simple family of five, so they always eat in one place.

The whole family was here, and the maids began to prepare meals when they saw him.The dinner table was quiet, and even his younger brother was uncharacteristically honest. Fu Cheng put a chopstick in his mouth, put down the bowl and said, "If you want to ask your parents, just ask them. Why don't you hold on like this?" Isn't it suffocated?"

The eldest lady glanced sideways at Fu Shangshu, seeing him winking, she coughed weakly, and put down the bowl as well: "It's not a big deal, it's just that I heard some gossip these days, and your father and I didn't take it to heart. , if you heard it, you don't have to be serious,... have you heard it?"

"My son heard it." Fu Cheng put his hands on his knees, looking calm.

"Ah..." The eldest lady was a little embarrassed, smiled, then picked up the bowl again, and put vegetables into the younger son's bowl.Fu Shangshu couldn't count on her anymore, so he turned his heart and asked in person: "I heard that you and that kid from the Yu family... I guess it's false, so I didn't ask any more. Since you mentioned it today, I have no choice but to ask. , but really?"

Fu Cheng was silent for a moment, but still said frankly: "It's true."

Fu Shangshu's heart sank for a moment: "You originally said that your own marriage is your own decision. Could it be because of him?"

"Yes."

He didn't hide it at all, and blocked all the words that Fu Shangshu had prepared, and he only spoke kindly to induce: "You know, when talking about that kid from the Liang family outside, they are all full of obscenities. The Holy Majesty bestows a marriage. If you do the same, I'm afraid it will be even more criticized."

"My son is not afraid." Fu Cheng frankly inspected the people at the dinner table, and his eyes fell on his father: "As for the future, my son believes that it depends on strength, not these rumors."

Seeing that he seemed to have made up his mind, Fu Shangshu didn't say any more, but only warned him: "Even if you want to marry a male wife, I can't figure it out, but since your mother and I have agreed to let you make up your own mind, we naturally don't want to marry you." I will try to stop him, but I just want to tell you that the Yu family will never agree to this marriage. Master Yu and I have been in the same dynasty for many years. I know his temperament. He has always been stubborn and pedantic. , I'm afraid it will be difficult for you..."

"Father, don't worry," Fu Cheng smiled at him: "The son will take care of his own business. The father doesn't have to make things difficult. It's just that there is one thing. The rumors are getting worse and worse. I'm afraid Mr. He will come to his father to talk about marriage at that time. Father must not Just promise him."

Fu Shangshu held the bowl and snorted: "I will never agree to him!"

In this way, even if there are rumors outside, it will not disturb the morale of the Fu family.He Congfu was smart all his life, but he misunderstood this Lord Shangshu. Although he was well-known in the court, and his temperament was gentle and polite, but seeing that he was a high-ranking official and a rich salary, he didn't even have a concubine. Another opinion.

The next day when Liang Jin finished school, he took He Need to go to Fu Cheng's appointment with him. It was boring to eat at the mansion every day, and he was tired of eating even the best delicacies, so he had to bring He Need to come out from time to time.

When the two of them arrived, Fu Cheng was already there. He felt a little embarrassed when he saw why he asked, and pointed to the table with his fan: "I ordered the food abruptly first. I wonder if these suit the young lady's taste?"

He Needed was more polite than him: "It doesn't matter what, I was the one who was abrupt and followed here without authorization."

"Hey, he's bored at home every day, so I took this opportunity to take him out for a change." Liang Jin aggressively pulled him to sit down: "Fu Cheng is one of his own, so there's no need to be so polite, you eat yours."

He put a dish of vegetables into his bowl, then turned his face and asked Fu Cheng, "What do you want me to do?"

"This..." Seeing why there was no need to ask, Fu Cheng hesitated and said bluntly: "I have found out that the culprit is He Chang'an. It must be because my father declined his family's promises a few days ago, so they thought of such a drudgery." way."

After he finished speaking, he saw why he had to ask, and seeing that his expression was the same, he felt relieved.

Liang Jin swallowed what was in his mouth, took a sip of water and said, "His family has always used everything to the extreme. I will introduce someone to you, and he will definitely bring He Changan down!"

"Who?"

"He Changchun." Liang Jin touched his cups with him: "He Changchun is not a concubine in the family. He Changchun is the third brother who needs to be asked. He is also very unsatisfactory at home. I have long been resentful. He handles things well, and he handles them well, so you can go to him in my name."

"Okay, thank you." Fu Cheng bowed his hands to him.

Liang Jin nodded with a smile, and asked him mysteriously: "By the way, if you want to ask him out, invite him here, order a table of good food, and let him eat first!"

Fu Cheng couldn't figure it out and didn't delve into it.

After a meal, Liang Jin and He Xuwen took their leave and went home on their own.The two of them didn't get into the carriage either, and strolled leisurely in front of the carriage.

He Youwen rubbed shoulders and elbows with him, and asked worriedly, "Are you two okay?"

"It's hard to say," Liang Jin squeezed his cuff back with one hand and sighed: "Fu Cheng has been the most calm among us since he was a child. As long as he makes up his mind, his father is not easy to interfere. It's just that Yue Yang, his father is the "Qing Zheng Yan Wang" in the court, he can't rub the sand in his eyes, every time Yue Yang makes a mistake, he will not show mercy in fighting, and now this kind of outrageous thing, I am afraid he can't bear it even more."

"Then what can we do?" He Needed to turn his head: "Why don't I go and see Yue Yang?"

"Don't, don't, don't!" Liang Jin pouted and shook his head: "His father doesn't like this kind of thing, if you go, maybe he will be so sarcastic about you, I'll go."

The two wandered around halfway, and got into the car in the second half. The wheels creaked for a while, and then they went back to the mansion. It was just when the meal was finished inside. As soon as they entered the courtyard, Hua Nong said that Mrs. Li was calling, Let the two go there together.

The two of them changed into looser clothes and went there together. Why bother to ask, at home, they like to wear loose round-neck robes and a loose belt. They don't hang jade or sachets and purses. It's refreshing and simple. .

Liang Jin loves him the most, like Kuai Biyu, he can't put it down, he holds people in his hand all the way, and doesn't let go when he meets people, everyone in the house is used to it.

There were only Mrs. Li and the servant girl in the room. When they saw someone coming, they beckoned He Suwen to sit in front of her: "I heard from the servant girl that Jin'er took you out for dinner?" Whispering: "The rice in Yulou is full of oil and water. I asked someone to cook hawthorn tea. You can drink it."

Then a maid brought up two lamps, one for He Need to ask, and one for Liang Jin.Liang Jin saw that the two of them were talking like mothers and sons, and they were more intimate than him. He felt warm and comfortable in his heart. He leaned over, a little unruly: "Mother, what are you calling us for?"

Mrs. Li glanced at him: "I can't call you if I have nothing to do? In the past two days, the eldest lady in the second room of Hu's family, the founder of the founding county, talked to me. I heard what it meant. Bai, I want to ask you, do you recognize the second son of his family?"

He Xuwen's heart trembled when he heard this, and he looked over at Liang Jin, seeing him turn his eyes and think for a while: "You mean that Hu Shaotian, right? I don't know him, I just met him occasionally and never spoke to him."

Mrs. Li sighed, quite worried: "I thought you knew each other. Ordinarily, their family and ours are well-matched. Although Mu Bai is a concubine, his conduct has always been dignified, and he is worthy of their concubines, but I don't know that. I want you to inquire about Hu Shaotian's virtues."

"Hey, this is a big deal!" Boss Liang Jin waved his hand indifferently: "I'll just go and find out, if my mother agrees!"

"Well, your father never asks about these things, and if he asks about it, he will be able to find out some false names. I'd rather you go and I'll be at ease."

After they settled the deal, why bother to ask: "Did mother tell Mu Bai about this?"

Mrs. Li smiled faintly: "I just want you to tell her, and ask her what she means. That girl is in front of me, and she can only say everything, and I can't tell the truth."

All the way back, Liang Jin was quite happy, but when he turned to Yanzi Pond, he realized that He Needed didn't seem very happy, and looked thoughtful.

"Qingqing, what's the matter? Can't bear to marry Mubai?"

He Needed sighed softly: "It's nothing. I'm a little tired, let's go back soon."

Liang Jin didn't know what to do. After thinking about it for a while, he guessed that it was Yu Yueyang's matter that made him unhappy, so he could only comfort him.

Where does he know the reason inside?Why need to ask is just worried about Liang Mubai, these days, Liang Mubai and Lin Hong are very close, every look and every word he meets in a trance makes him tremble with fear.

He didn't know how Liang Mubai would face her fate, he couldn't even bear to tell her that the good thing was over, she had to return to the identity of Miss Qianjin, and shoulder the responsibilities of a lady for the family.

Before going to sleep, He Need asked was still in a daze, Liang Jin woke up, put his arms around him and kissed him softly for a while: "What's wrong? Do you want to tell me something?"

"Let me ask you," He Needed kissed him back on the lips, and stared closely into his eyes: "If the Holy Majesty did not grant marriage, would you still want to marry me?"

Liang Jin was moved by him, so he leaned in and kissed the little mole on the end of his eyebrow: "If the Holy Majesty did not bestow marriage, where would I meet you? You don't like to go out..."

"What if I go out? What if you know me?"

"Then I will definitely like you," Liang Jin hugged him and imagined: "As long as I know you, I will like you. According to my temperament, I will marry you home even if I die. I'm afraid I will suffer There will be no fewer boards than Yue Yang."

He Youwen leaned on his shoulder and followed him with a soft smile, and then the two kissed each other, their lingering shadows flung themselves on the fallen taupe-coloured curtain, half a candle was shining beside it, a sporadic bit of light shone across the sky. This room, drowsy into the long night.
