Chapter 1191: The Queen Mother Goes Out
Shen Nanzhi gathered the gray squirrel gown with green plates and gold and silver entwined branches on his body, and sat in a semi-pavilion hall with doors and windows open on all sides.
She took a bite of the best rose cheese in the palace, and at this moment she was still in a very confused state.
Yesterday, Shi suddenly called her to Chaoxiju, saying that Lu Yunqi told his eldest brother that he wanted to marry her! At that moment, Shen Nanzhi only felt that something was "booming" in her ears, she wanted to go to Chao Xiju to ask what was going on, but her legs were weak and she fell directly to the ground, and to this day there is still a layer of skin in the palm of her hand, which hurts hotly.
It's just that Lu Yunqi didn't talk to Shen Yao about this matter in detail, only said that he wanted to marry Shen Nanzhi, and then Shen Yao asked again: "When did you understand this kind of thought?" ”
He replied respectfully: "It has been early in the morning, and it has been especially strong lately. ”
"Do you know that the matter between Meng Zhe and the fourth sister was my personal idea!? The old uncle and I have the grace of acquaintance, and Meng Zhe is even more respectful to me, and I have already had the heart to marry my fourth sister to him. Shen Yao asked angrily and glaring.
Lu Yunqi nodded: "Naturally, I know, but the Meng family in the Earl's Mansion is in decline, and the power is not as strong as before, and Brother Yao, you are a second-rank official, and you don't ask your sister to marry high, but marry into the family of the uncle who is from the second-rank official?" ”
Shen Yao looked at Lu Yunqi with a serious face, and said weakly: "Then what did you do earlier!?" I haven't seen you in contact with my fourth sister since I left the palace in April, and now the marriage of Shen Meng's two families is about to be decided, what do you want me to do when you run out at this time? ”
"Brother Fool knows that the situation at home is complicated, even with Brother Yao's help, he may not be able to ask his wife to agree, so he has been cultivating for the past few months to marry your sister, and now, there are 10,000 confidence that he can marry your sister!" Lu Yunqi smiled lightly and added: "Never embarrass Brother Yao!" ”
Then today, Shen Nanzhi and Shi were invited into the palace by the Queen Mother. Neither of them reacted to this, and looked at each other in a daze.
After a while, the Queen Mother, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked in, smiling and very enthusiastic, and as soon as she came in, she took Shi's hand, "Good sister, sit down quickly!" ”
Shi's mind was full of Lu Yunqi's seemingly unobtrusive words at the moment, and his intuition was that the Queen Mother suddenly called herself and Shen Nanzhi into the palace today because of this matter, and she couldn't care so much about this matter, and after saluting in a proper manner, she asked: "The Queen Mother asked the concubine to enter the palace today...... But what's the matter? ”
The Queen Mother was not in a hurry, and smiled lightly: "Welcome the spring, bring the Biluochun prepared by the mourning family!" When the little girl in the peach-pink gown brought the tea, the Queen Mother pretended to ask unintentionally: "Yingchun, yesterday's mourning family and the child of the Meng family talked a lot, and today he has a decision?" ”
When it came to the Meng family, Shen Nanzhi and Shi's eyes jumped, and they heard the little girl say: "Back to the words of the Queen Mother!" Early this morning, the second son of the Meng family came in, saying that he was willing to listen to the teachings of the Queen Mother, and he would never tolerate it in the past few months, and he would definitely be on the list for the Spring Festival next year! ”
Hearing this, the Queen Mother smiled and retreated from everyone.
Shi Shi didn't have a good temper, after all, she was still the distant sister of the Queen Mother, and at this time, she couldn't restrain those bad rules, just waiting for the old child-like person: "What does this mean!?" Lu Yunqi said that the oath is true, and the feelings are mixed with the queen mother! ”
How could the Queen Mother not know that Shi Shi was not really angry, and stretched out her hand to comfort her with a self-smile, and said, "Sister, don't be in a hurry, just listen to me in detail." I'm just looking at the Meng family's strict rules and sincerity, and he is a usable talent, where does the emperor of the court have a few caring people now? The mourning family has been listening to politics for many years, how can they not bother more for the emperor's country? It's because the students of this autumn season are very good. What's more, the Meng family is the father of the two dynasties, and the son is so powerful? ”
Shi Shi only frowned, as if she knew what she was going to say, the Queen Mother glanced at Shen Nanzhi, who was still confused, and continued: "The Meng family's Meng Zhi is a usable talent, and the Mourning family intends to cultivate it vigorously, sister, you know, how easy is it to call one person absolutely loyal?" It was promised to the Meng family by the mourning family, if the spring is powerful, Meng Zhe will be an official since he entered the court, as for Meng Zhe's marriage - the mourning family will be the master for him, and promise an excellent marriage! ”
Shen Nanzhi suddenly realized - no wonder Lu Yunqi swore that he would never embarrass Brother Yao, and now the Queen Mother only said that he would have a good marriage for him, but he didn't say who it was, firstly, there are many better choices than the Shen family, and secondly, the grace of the Queen Mother is not stronger than anything else?
Her words must have been taught by Lu Yunqi to the Queen Mother...... When the time comes, the Meng family doesn't know that the Queen Mother has other arrangements for Meng Zhe's marriage, and even if Meng Zhe marries someone else, it is not treachery, and Shen Nanzhi doesn't need to say more......
She secretly clenched her fists: But where does Lu Yunqi have such a ability to control the Queen Mother?
Shi Shi helped his forehead, "The Queen Mother knows that it is the temper of the concubine, and Lord Lu is indeed dashing and quite capable, but what is the Lu family?" It's a tiger and wolf den! My Sister An will just be in time for next year, but Lord Lu will be twenty-one years old next year! She has been like this, can't she let her life be swallowed alive? ”
The Queen Mother smiled slightly: "Sister, this is too much to worry about, sister can think about it, how much does Lu Yunqi care about Nanzhi?" If you marry into the family, how can you not protect it carefully! The Lu family is a tiger and wolf den, but the most important thing is a fight between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law! My sister also said that she wanted Nanzhi to find a true love, and it doesn't matter if you and I say it, and ask Nanzhi what he means! ”
Shen Nanzhi on the side was already full of crimson, and when he saw the two of them looking at each other, he didn't know what to do for a while, so he hurriedly lowered his head: "Marriage, marriage is a major event, the order of the parents, the daughter doesn't dare to make her own decisions......"
The Queen Mother smiled, and her heart was clear.
Shi Shi was a little entangled at this time, stared at Shen Nanzhi for a long time, and finally bent his eyebrows, and when he looked at Shen Nanzhi, he shed two lines of tears.
Shen Nanzhi's heart moved, her eyes became moist, and she knelt down in front of Shi: "Mother! My daughter listens to you, she listens to you, don't cry......"
Shi Shi reluctantly pressed his eyes with a handkerchief, and sighed to the Queen Mother: "The concubine has never seen the Queen Mother rushing to be a matchmaker like this!" I don't know what kind of magic that kid used, but he asked the Queen Mother to come forward to be the person who carried the blame! ”
The Queen Mother smiled lightly: "It's all for the sake of the child, if Scholar Lu is not sincere, how can the mourning family tell your sister this indiscriminately?" ”
