849 Xiaoxiang wants to get married
When Lu Shu and Lin Xun'er heard Zheng Peng's words, the two glanced at each other, thinking that this was Zheng Peng's style, and things like repaying grievances with virtue would not happen to Zheng Peng.
In Zheng Peng's own mantra: A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, he is not a gentleman, and he feels painful to take revenge in ten days.
Lin Xun'er said happily: "You have to treat him, don't think that you can act recklessly if you take refuge in the prince." β
Shangxiang was insulted by the crown princess in public, because of the prince's power, Lin Xun'er didn't dare to say anything, but she didn't have a good impression of the prince and the prince in her heart, especially Li Linfu, who was the prince's vanguard, was even more annoying, and when she heard that Zheng Peng wanted to fix him, she was naturally in a good mood.
Lu Shu said with some worry: "Young master, wouldn't it be bad to offend the prince, after all, he is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, if he settles accounts after the autumn.....
Li Ying is the crown prince, the prince is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the future son of the Tang Dynasty, now Zheng Peng and the prince are getting more and more stiff, Lu Shu is a little worried, I am afraid that once Li Ying ascends the throne, he will start to liquidate, and the Son of Heaven will be angry, it is a million corpses.
Zheng Peng knew what Lu Shu was worried about, and when he saw that there was no one in the dining room, he lowered his voice and said: "The emperor is in the prime of life, and the next emperor is still early, the time is so long, everything is possible, I think the current prince does not have the appearance of an emperor, what are you afraid of." β
"Believe me, I've always been very accurate in seeing people." Zheng Peng immediately added.
I can't say that I am a person from the next generation, knowing that Li Ying has the fate of the prince and does not have the luck to be an emperor, for fear that the second daughter will worry, Zheng Peng still changed his mind to appease.
Zheng Peng's words seemed to give Lu Shu a dose of heart boost, Lu Shu's face was obviously much more relaxed, and he nodded and said, "The slave family listens to the young master." β
"The young master is right, the slave family looks at that prince, and he doesn't have the appearance of an emperor." Lin Xun'er also lowered her voice and agreed.
Lu Shu and Lin Xun'er have an inexplicable trust in Zheng Peng, Zheng Peng said that Li Ying can't be the emperor, then Li Ying will definitely not be the emperor, since he can't be the emperor, naturally don't be afraid of him, and the second daughter has seen a lot in Chang'an, and under the eyes and ears, the political sensitivity is also much higher, the simplest truth, Gao Lishi is the most trusted person around the emperor, and he also knows the emperor's mind best, if Li Ying's position is secure, a shrewd person like Gao Lishi will definitely not approach Zheng Peng and be under the dangerous wall; Besides, Zhao Guifei has never been able to sit on the throne of the queen, which is a very important information.
Zheng Peng put down the chopsticks in his hand and burped: "Forget it, don't talk about these unfortunate things during the New Year, and say more happy things." β
Everything is under Zheng Peng's control, there is nothing to worry about, Zheng Peng is afraid that the second daughter will be under too much pressure, so he is very skilled in changing the topic.
"Young Master" Lin Xun'er said happily: "In order to celebrate your safe return, and also to congratulate the young master on his promotion to the rank of knight, the slave family and Shu'er have discussed, this year's Shangyuan Lantern Festival can not be saved, to make a lantern wheel that the whole Chang'an City is eye-catching, and the construction will start tomorrow, this news, okay?" β
In the past few years, Zheng Peng has not been there, and Lu Shu and Lin Xun'er have no intention of celebrating the Shangyuan Festival, they all let people get some lanterns to decorate, and now Zheng Peng not only came back alive intact, but also brought so many prisoners and trophies, and the official was promoted and the knight was promoted, so it is naturally worth celebrating.
"Yes, that's good news," Zheng Peng asked with a smile, "Is there any other good news?" β
Lu Shu hesitated, and said a little unnaturally: "Young master, there is news, and the slave family doesn't know whether to say it is good news or bad news. β
Zheng Peng glanced at Lu Shu with some surprise, and said softly: "Say it, whether it's good news or bad news, just say it." β
"Young master, it's like this, Xiaoxiang has been with the slave family, the slave family and Sister Xun'er also treat her like a sister, and trust her very much, what rouge water to buy on weekdays, let Xiaoxiang buy it, I don't know if it's the arrangement of fate, Xiaoxiang met the son of the shopkeeper of the rouge shop, the more the two got along, the more they got along, and last month Xiaoxiang was a little embarrassed to find the slave family, saying that she wanted to marry the young man from the rouge shop, I hope we can do it, because Xiaoxiang's identity is special, the slave family does not dare to be the master, said that he would discuss it when the young master came back. β
It stands to reason that the personal maid is the maid who has a room, and waits for the male host when the hostess is inconvenient or goes out, so as not to make the male owner lonely, but Zheng Peng has always confiscated Xiaoxiang, and now Xiaoxiang is going to marry the son of a businessman, for Zheng Peng, I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing.
"Xiaoxiang, want to get married?" Zheng Peng was taken aback, but soon said with some self-reproach: "Calculate the age, Xiaoxiang could have married five years ago, they are all damn Tubo, as soon as it tosses, I will go to the Western Regions to suffer for a few years, and I will almost forget about it." β
A person's energy is limited, in the Western Regions, the first is to let the soldiers adapt to the new environment, and then it is to train soldiers, dig private salt, buy and sell on the black market, etc., every day is very busy, and I really forget about Xiaoxiang, calculate the age, Xiaoxiang is already twenty-four years old, and in the later generations, he has just reached the age of talking about marriage, and in the Tang Dynasty, where he was thirteen or fourteen years old, he could say that he was married, and she was about to become an old girl.
Lu Shu hurriedly said: "Young master, don't blame yourself, who in Chang'an in the past few years doesn't know that the young master has been busy with official business, and he has to lead troops to fight, and it is reasonable to forget it for a while, how should this kind of thing be handled?" β
Zheng Peng sat down and thought about it, and quickly asked, "The young shopkeeper of the rouge shop that Xiaoxiang wants to marry?" What is the origin, have you investigated? β
"The young shopkeeper's surname is Wu, a single name is Chong, he is twenty-six years old this year, a person from Wannian County, Chang'an, he looks very good, the rouge shop is the property of their Wu family, and his life is quite rich, and the slave family also sent someone to inquire about Wu Chong, with a good style, good with people, no criminal record, and the neighbors also said that he is a reliable person." Lu Shu seemed to know what Zheng Peng was going to do, and sent someone to do his homework early.
"Twenty-six years old and not married, there is nothing wrong with this person?" Zheng Peng said with a frown.
In Datang, the young men who haven't married at the age of twenty are all older youths, that Wu Chong's conditions are okay, and he only wants to get married at the age of twenty-six, there won't be any problems, right?
Zheng Fu and his wife have helped Zheng Peng a lot conscientiously, and Ah Jun sacrificed his life to entangle the enemy and die on the battlefield in order for Zheng Peng to escape safely, Zheng Peng has always felt indebted to them, and he is also very concerned about Xiaoxiang's affairs.
Lin Xun'er took over and explained: "No, although Wu Chong said that his family was a little rich, but he had no fame, he was just a businessman with a low status, and he originally had a fiancΓ©e who was married by his fingertips, but the family ate the bowl and looked at the pot, first dragged on for a few years, and finally refused to recognize the marriage contract, and married his daughter to an eight-grade official to fill the house, the Wu family was very angry, because it was only a verbal agreement at the time, there was no deed paper, so they could only endure it, not long after, Wu Chong's grandparents passed away one after another, and they needed to keep filial piety, which dragged on until now, which is strange to say, The Wu family introduced many women to Wu Chong and didn't like them, but he fell in love with Xiaoxiang, who often went to the store to buy rouge gouache, and had the heart to get close, and after coming and going, the two got better. β
So that's the case, Zheng Peng nodded, and the person relaxed a lot.
It's not a problem to marry someone, but you must marry well, because Zheng Peng feels that he owes Ah Jun too much, Ah Jun has died on the battlefield, and what he can do now is to treat his family well.
