Femme Beauty

Jia Lian walked the streets here, thinking that he would be in contact with the Jiang family in the future.After all, the second place is the future son-in-law of the Jiang family, isn't he?But he thought well, but he didn't know that someone had already set his mind on him.

At the Qionglin banquet in the evening, he himself has a real characteristic.He is not competitive in poetry and songs.Lin Ruhai also said that this is his weakness.There is no need to use your weakness to compete with others.So, he just played a piece of music on the piano.Fortunately, his piano art was indeed practiced in his previous life when he was in retirement, so he has a solid foundation.

Because today is Sanding Qionglin, the gate of the palace was closed very late.After the banquet was over, Jiang Cheng found Wang Ziteng.The two walked slowly in the narrow passage leading to the palace gate, Lin Ruhai saw Wang Ziteng and Jiang Cheng together, so he went back without saying a word.

Jiang Cheng knew that although Wang Ziteng had the temperament of a literati, he was a real general.Therefore, he didn't go around the corner, and said what he meant directly:

"My lord Wang is Tanhualang's father-in-law, so I won't tell you anything. I have a daughter. Although she is a concubine, she is of a good age. Now is the time to look for relatives. I originally wanted to choose among the Qionglin. One day disciple. How can I not find anything suitable. It’s just that your son-in-law is not bad, I don’t know what Master Wang thinks?”

When Wang Ziteng heard what Jiang Cheng said, his heart skipped a beat.Jia Lian doesn't know how to take concubines, he knows it.In fact, Jia Lian never concealed this.But Jiang Cheng's words were like a wake-up call to him.A concubine's daughter must be the second wife.But if he doesn't agree, it's tantamount to causing trouble for Jia Lian.

He stopped and looked at Jiang Cheng, with his hands in his sleeves: "Jiang Ge is very kind, but...Master Jiang's daughter...I'm afraid it's inappropriate!"

"Why is it inappropriate? I think Tanhualang is good." Jiang Cheng didn't know what Wang Ziteng meant, but he needed Wang Ziteng to nod.Therefore, it is full of postures.

Wang Ziteng saw him like this, thought for a while and said: "Master Jiang, I will tell you the truth. My niece is my son-in-law. It is true to say that she is Tanhualang's father-in-law. But my niece's temperament, I don't know if Master Jiang can accept it." learn?"

Wang Ziteng looked at Jiang Cheng who was stunned with a smile, and he bet that Jiang Cheng didn't know.How to talk about the internal affairs of the boudoir so that outsiders can hear it.That is to say, I am afraid that it is also passed on between the wives.It's nothing more than two families getting along.

He smiled lowly twice: "This matter is embarrassing to say. Originally, this matter in the boudoir was also a matter between the wife. It is hard for me to say anything about it. But Mr. Jiang is so kind, I think about it." It’s better to talk about it.”

Jiang Cheng nodded when he heard the words.He expected that Wang Ziteng would not lie to him about this matter.After all, he will be able to understand it as soon as he goes back and investigates.He squinted his eyes: "Master Wang, please tell me!"

"My niece grew up with my father when my father was still alive before she got married. She has a wild temper and is very aggressive. Originally, there were two aspects to this marriage. Master Jiang also knows, I Before boarding the plane, I had a good relationship with Majesty Sheng. Majesty was enthroned and intended to accept my niece into the palace. I was also worried about her character, so I married her off in a hurry when she was only 13 years old.

The other is to choose the current Tanhualang.It's not that my prince Teng has any foresight and can predict that Lian'er will be successful in the future.It's just my sister who is a direct relative, Jia Lian's second aunt.The marriages of our Jia kings in all dynasties all came from Jinling.If I marry my aggressive, arrogant and unreasonable niece to someone else's family, I'm afraid it will become an enemy instead of a marriage.So there was no way out, and there was such a marriage.After all, at that time, the old lady at the end of Jia's family also hoped that Lian'er would get married early.But at that time, he was just a playboy. Who would have thought that a good daughter would dare to marry him? "

"Hehe..." Jiang Cheng laughed dryly, lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Master Wang, Ming people don't speak dark words. Your niece has been married for three or four years! There are three ways to be unfilial, and the worst thing is to have no offspring. Although it is true that my daughter is a concubine, she was also carefully raised and brought up."

Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Wang Ziteng snorted coldly: "What Mr. Jiang Ge said is a bit boring. My niece was only thirteen or fourteen when she got married. If she had a child early..." Wang Ziteng looked at Jiang Cheng with blazing eyes: "This corpse is a minor matter, but it would be a serious matter if Tan Hualang was given a wife. I'm afraid Mr. Jiang doesn't know the Jia family! Right now Mr. Jia, who is the leader of the Liang Dao, once But he lived in the Rongxi Hall of the Rongguo Mansion regardless of his dignity. This incident was full of ups and downs in the city. Even now, the old lady who is separated by a wall is still thinking about the fixed-point family property What! They say that it is better to demolish a temple than destroy a marriage. Mr. Jiang Ge is... forcing me to take a concubine for his son-in-law?"

His last words were a bit sharp, Jiang Cheng knew that Wang Ziteng was not easy to mess with.But he never thought that he would object to such a suitable thing.He cast a gloomy gaze, glanced at the little yellow gate that was coming not far away, and said in a low voice, "My lord, the old man made it clear here. My lord Wang must also know what happened to our Jiang family. This is only good. The disadvantages of the matter...Since Mr. Wang can't say anything here, I can only ask someone to talk to Tan Hualang."

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and opened.Seeing him open the little yellow door, he hurriedly walked up to Wang Ziteng, bowed his head and smiled and said, "But let the little one catch up, Mr. Wang... Your honor. If it's tonight, there's no need to go back."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ziteng nodded.After explaining to the coachman Huangmen told him, he went back into the palace.

Although Mu Chengze drank a lot, most of his water was too much water.I ordered it early, after all, it would be indecent to drink too much at a literati gathering.He also didn't have the time to let himself get drunk at this time.

Seeing Wang Ziteng coming in, he waved his hand to signal Wang Ziteng not to ask.He was sitting on the narrow kang in the small cubicle at this time, and asked Wang Ziteng to sit opposite to greet the waiter to serve tea: "I thought I needed someone to go to the mansion to wait for you! Why so fast? Didn't you leave?"

"I was pulled by Jiang Cheng to talk for a while." Wang Ziteng had a temper with Jiang Cheng before.Hearing Mu Chengze's questioning, he had no choice but to cover up.He sat cross-legged and put his hands on his knees: "Jiang Cheng told me that he has a concubine who wants to be assigned to Jia Lian as the second wife."

"Not bad plan, you agree?" Mu Chengze looked up at Wang Ziteng, and soon he got the answer: "How is it possible? Let me find something to cut my heart for my niece? They are living a good life as a young couple , besides, Jia Lian said in the future that he would follow Lin Ruhai's narrow path. I think it's feasible."

"Drink some tea...Jiang Cheng did this in the hope that he could find a good husband for his daughter and at the same time find a support for his own family." Mu Chengze understood this very well.For those old men in the cabinet, he can see clearly.It's just that he doesn't know how he will react when the emperor dies.

"Alas!" Wang Ziteng sighed, and took a sip of tea: "It's also my omission. I never thought that Jia Lian would get this chance. He was originally worried about his wife's health. After all, it was three or four years ago that he hadn't come out." Gave a loophole."

Hearing his honesty, Mu Chengze thought for a while and said, "Seeing that you are so troubled, I will help you!" Mu Chengze smiled and ordered the servant on the side: "From my side, I can't see Rongguo Mansion either. There is another Jiang family on it. You don’t have to thank me too much. Order it down and draw up an order for Liu Chunlin. He hasn’t married yet, and I don’t know if he has a marriage contract. If he doesn’t have a marriage contract, let him marry Jiang Cheng’s The youngest daughter is the main wife. If there is a marriage contract, she will marry as the second wife."

"Yes!" The servant from now on is not Qiao An, the servant glanced at Wang Ziteng and got up to go outside to report.This kind of marriage decree is made in duplicate.

Jiang Cheng, who was resting at home in the morning of the second day, immediately lost his head when he heard the order.The family called the imperial doctor and pinched, pressed and needled him before he came back to life, and he was in tears.Squeezing the hand of the little daughter who came to serve her: "It's Daddy who hurt you!"

From then on, Jiang Cheng's concubine was his old son.The other daughters were all grown up and married early, but this daughter was just fifteen years old when she was married.He blamed himself for being greedy for letting his daughter get such a reputation.If Liu Chunlin hadn't married, such a gift of marriage would not make him grateful to the Jiang family at all.If there is a marriage contract, then she will definitely hate the Jiang family to death.But in the final analysis, this is nothing more than Wang Ziteng's method.

But can this be said?Can you tell outsiders?both are not.I had to make the fruit myself and swallow it myself.

Jia Lian was not surprised at all about Liu Chunlin's marriage to Jiang's daughter.The only surprise is that this time it turned out to be such a big event as a gift of marriage.He vaguely remembered that it was the Jiang family who came to marry Liu Chunlin.In order to be able to get involved in the Jiang family's marriage, Liu Chunlin deliberately went back to his hometown and sold the ancestral land, collecting enough money for the scene before returning to the capital with his mother.But just like that, his money is not enough to marry a high-ranking lady in the capital.Looking at a few hundred taels of silver is very rich, but it is also a drop in the bucket.

Later, I heard that the Jiang family was sponsoring him, and at the same time, he married a large amount of dowry, not to mention.He even secretly gave this son-in-law a lot of money behind his back, even the wedding house was sold to him at a low price by the Jiang family.Otherwise, how could a second-entry yard in Sijiu City be sold for less than 50 taels?

At that time, Jia Lian thought it was fun to listen to it, and it is the same now.

After the imperial examination, Sanding can return to his hometown to worship his ancestors.Jia Lian's home is here, and there are also clan ancestral halls.So I spent a month at home with my daughter-in-law.The day has come, as expected, the editor of the Imperial Academy.The position is very good from time to time, but fortunately, although Shangfeng came from a poor background, he understands the logic of this officialdom.For him, he also turned a blind eye.

Jia Lian is officially on errand, Wang Ziteng can't help worrying about him.Thinking of the Jiang family's plan for the second wife and flat wife, maybe there are other people's plans for the concubine to send the girl.The Rongguo Mansion is not the time when Jia She was descended to attack the nobles, but the official Rongguo Mansion was built by She.The person living in it is the eldest son of Rong Guogong.

Thinking of this, he thought about it and asked the boy to send a letter to someone he knew well. That person was not an official but he was familiar with the officialdom.He is a man who deals in human beings.Speaking of it, it is still an official household.He asked the man to send two beautiful Yangzhou skinny horses to Jia Lian's house while Jia Lian was out on errands.

After ordering this matter, he asked his mother-in-law to deliver a message to Wang Xifeng.Just say to make a scene, even if you get a bad reputation, you must ensure temporary stability.

Wang Xifeng understood what Wang Ziteng meant. Jia Lian had just entered the court.To put it bluntly, he is a small civil servant who has just started working.But this can't be guaranteed, they have a high background.It is equivalent to the three generations of red, the second generation of officials and several generations of rich in the future.This kind of identity background indicates that people are just messing around with their qualifications in the Imperial Academy, and they don't seize resources.At the same time, you can also make friends.

In such a situation, sending a skinny horse to a tavern to find a showgirl is a trivial matter.At present, the imperial court strictly prohibits officials from going to the Women's Branch.But this does not prevent you from going to the Chu Pavilion Pavilion!

The former is a place where men gossip, but it is a place where MB gathers.If women are not allowed, can't men come?

The latter sounds like a place to eat and watch a play, so elegant!Who doesn't know what the actor who eats, sleeps and chats with him does?

She asked the mother-in-law to answer and reassured Wang Ziteng.Isn't it just that Jia Lian has a reputation of being afraid of his wife!What's the problem?It is not a bad thing for officials to be afraid of their wives, at least in the eyes of the emperor, it is better to be afraid of their wives than to be afraid of a certain official clinging to him and becoming a maggot.

It was just after the Dragon Boat Festival, and as a result of the warmer weather, Wang Xifeng changed into light clothes early because she thought it was too hot.

On this day, news came from the corner gate that a person said that he was entrusted by others to send two Yangzhou skinny horses.As soon as Wang Xifeng heard it, she knew that something arranged by her uncle had arrived.She smiled and put on a cloak, and led the maidservant out of the courtyard to the upstairs hall near the second gate.

At this time, the two skinny horses were already waiting there, and they were considered the best of the skinny horses.They are all kind of cute and good-looking.Sitting on the main seat, Wang Xifeng looked up and down, then looked at the man, mother, and grinned.

"What's the matter? I've never heard from my family that I bought people from you." Wang Xifeng said it not politely at all. As an official family, such words seemed vulgar.But she had a smile on her face and a critical tone in her tone, which didn't seem vulgar, but rather set off the jealousy in her heart.In fact, if Jia Lian really wanted to marry ten or eight concubines, she would definitely not care now.But this matter was ordered by her uncle, and she would not refute what he meant.The appearance is always put on.

Mother grinned: "A grandfather came to us a while ago... Hey, hello. The master said that Tanhualang Sanding is very happy now. He said that he asked me to pick two good ones and send them to Tanhualang. No, I just got two from Zhuangzi in the south, and they sent them over overnight. Grandma looks good?"

"The appearance is exquisite!" Wang Xifeng pursed her lips and smiled, looked at the two girls and looked them up and down: "Is this a small foot?" After she finished speaking, her eyes showed disdain.

"Isn't this rare for men!" Mother smiled secretly, but also with the meaning of showing off: "I keep these two in good health! They are both untouched." She leaned close to Wang Xifeng and said The only thing is that the two girls are virgins.

Wang Xifeng looked at her coldly, and snorted coldly: "So what? How beautiful are people like us? Even the girl next to me is also in a variety of poses. Otherwise, it will be ugly, and it is not us who are the masters who are uncomfortable. Yes? But it's also interesting to say, our man is just a small editor. One of the seventh-rank sesame officials, the price of these two is quite a lot!"

"Hey... look at what you said. It's just a thousand taels of silver, and the master also gave the money." Mother thought, this little daughter-in-law might not be able to save face, but no matter what the two people said must be delivered.She is just an errand runner, and it's not her business how to arrange it when people arrive.

"Your mouth sounds nice. Isn't it just a thousand taels of silver..." Wang Xifeng curled her lips: "Twenty taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family to live a good life for more than half a year. These two girls, It's fine if you have flat feet. If you stay here, you can be a girl and find someone to marry in the future. The master of our family is Lord Lin Ruhai, so we must follow the master's wishes. No concubines, no children. I have been raising it for a few years, and I have done good deeds. But what can this one with bound feet do? Can it walk... or can it be picked? I still have to be provided with clothes for four seasons this year, and my rations are running out. You It's really interesting..."

Hearing what Wang Xifeng said, Ah Mu immediately understood.This is not accepted by others.She smiled awkwardly: "Grandma said this, I'm a fool and I can't understand it. A man who is in charge of the family is not a man with three wives and four concubines who is looking for someone to live in Longchang. For nothing else, it is good to have more children and grandchildren. These two girls don't talk about anything else, I'll guarantee you just the body, it's definitely suitable for childbearing."

Hearing this, Wang Xifeng waved his hand and patted the table: "I don't understand what you said. You look like you are always sitting and waiting for business, why don't you understand the things about people like us. You are trying to persuade me Take it for our men, and then ruin the future of our Jia family? Or, help that unknown person and follow our family's affairs to watch the fun? I just said my fate, and you are still here to give Am I being sloppy?"

Wang Xifeng's voice was slightly raised, and he pointed to the door and said, "Go out and inquire, who doesn't know that Lin Taibao is the leader of the noble family. Anyone who has a little contact with the noble family in this old capital understands the rules of the noble family. We Who are you guys? Can the future heirs of the Rongguo Mansion be able to pretend to be false?"

When mother heard this, her complexion suddenly became not very good.She looked at the two girls and gritted her teeth: "This is just a plaything. It can't be used as anything. Now that grandma has said what's going on in the capital, I'll say it too. Whoever has no inside or outside, just say it's an upright official. At the beginning of the year, I can also make ten-mile red makeup for my daughter. How can I say it? Besides, it was given to grandma’s house for fun. It’s no different from that flower... Cao’er. Grandma likes it, so I give it to the couple. Meals. If you don’t like it, you can throw it out. If grandma doesn’t like it, as long as this man likes it. If grandma does good, she can get it, right?”

"I just don't want this! Who are we, who am I?" Wang Xifeng squinted his eyes and smiled and stretched out his hand to pat himself: "This kind of thing, other people can do it. I can't do it. You still How did you come here, how did you bring him out? We can talk about it. Anyway, it’s just a transaction where someone gave you money. If not... don’t blame grandma for not giving me face. These are old people who have lived for several lifetimes. Those who stayed in the capital. Don't go to this end, and lose the other end."

She understands what she said, and my mother understands it too.She looked at the two girls and frowned: "I don't think there is any way to talk to grandma today. It is said that business is not easy. I will take care of this girl for two days first, and wait until Tanhualang has If I have free time, I will naturally come to the door. After all, I am also a businessman. If I don’t have someone who is willing to talk to me, I can’t do this business.”

After saying this, Wang Xifeng served tea to see off the guests.Seeing the woman take the girl away, she immediately threw the teacup aside: "Go and tell the concierge that if the second master comes back, let him sleep at the gate! Anyone who lets someone in, clean up for me." Let the burden go."
