Chapter 1: Deception

After the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, you can see the Mid-Autumn Festival, the beginning of August, everywhere begins to put up lights, on both sides of the street erected two-storey high wooden piles, hanging on the top of the uniform new clever lanterns, as soon as the evening arrives, everywhere will be illuminated as day.

Looking out from the Phoenix Terrace, the scenery is extraordinarily different.

Chu Jingxing held the wine glass in his hand and shook his head at Yuan Hongwen and the others who were making a lot of noise opposite, as if he was extremely helpless: "Hongwen, if you make trouble again, I will go and talk to my aunt ......"

Yuan Hongwen and the others burst into laughter.

A few days ago, there were frequent marriage decrees in the palace, not only King Zheng's family affairs had been agreed, but even the marriage decrees of Chu Jingxing, the princes of the vassal kings, had also come down, and Chu Jingxing had been Yuan Hongwen's brother-in-law since then.

Yuan Hongwen has played well with Shen Chen since he was born, since he has played well with Shen Chen, it is naturally happy to kiss Shen Chen, their group has grown up together since childhood, and there is nothing taboo or taboo, since the saint has made a clear decree, he simply pulled Chu Jingxing out to play together.

Hearing Chu Jingxing say this at this time, Yuan Hongwen put the cup on the table, circled his back behind his back with his hands, touched his chin and laughed: "What's the matter?" What are you accusing me of? Everyone has become relatives, is it possible to twist it instead? From now on, when I go to your house, your family will have to call my uncle ......."

As soon as he changed his words, he put his arm around Chu Jingxing's shoulders and became a little speechless: "Be content, you, what did my sister say?" Look at Jing Zong, he didn't open his mouth when he was a mourning star like Li Guiniang, what else do you say? My eldest brother doesn't cause trouble! ”

Yuan Hongwen has always been open-mouthed, he will say whatever he thinks, and there is no door in his mouth.

Peng Caiying, who was beside him, didn't hear it right, so she hurriedly pulled his sleeve and shook her head at him.

Yuan Hongwen didn't react yet, and snorted with his sleeves: "Am I not right?" Li Shao said that he was not tired by Gui Niang?! If it weren't for Gui Niang....."

Chu Jingxing finally changed his demeanor, gently put the wine glass on the table, let out a crisp collision sound, and said loudly: "Enough." ”

He wasn't really good.

Yuan Hongwen was uncomfortable with the banter on his face, lowered his head and muttered: "Yes, why don't you let people say it?" With Achen, I can say whatever I want......"

It's really a fly in the ointment.

The smile on the corner of Chu Jingxing's mouth became deeper and deeper, but the bottom of his eyes seemed to be frosty.

Li Guiniang is not good, but her brother Li Shao is rare smart and keen, and the county lord of Xianrong is good, but her brother is a straw bag, or a straw bag close to Shen Chen and Chu Jingwu.

It's a real headache.

He glanced at everyone again, and saw that this group of gentlemen stopped laughing, so he relaxed, and chuckled himself: "Ah Shao is dead, and his favorite is Gui Niang's sister, as his brothers, what has become of us talking about people behind our backs?" What's more, it will also embarrass Jing Zong when the time comes, right? In the future, don't say these words again. ”

The atmosphere was a little stagnant.

Yuan Hongwen was not very happy, in order to make him happy, Peng Caiying coughed and rolled up his hands, and talked about the topic of concern between them: "Speaking of Jing Zong, it will be Jing Zong's birthday in a few days, and I heard that Jing Zong is going to be a guest at the banquet this year." ”

Chu Jingzong is the son of Duanwang, Duanwang is cautious, Chu Jingzong has not liked to go out to meet people since he was a child because he is fat and strong, Duanwang simply depends on him, he has grown up to now, and the number of times he goes out is probably limited.

Together with Chu Jingxing, who grew up in the capital, he couldn't say much to Chu Jingzong.

This time, he was going to feast guests unusually, Chu Jingxing raised his eyebrows.

Chu Jingzong's current situation is very embarrassing----- why did the Fang family fall, presumably King Duan knew very well, and it was not because he received his hot silver that he ended up where he is now?

So now.....

King Duan must have taken advantage of his son's birthday to tell Emperor Longqing that he was satisfied with the marriage given by Emperor Longqing, and also told Emperor Longqing that from now on, for Duanwangfu, thunder, rain and dew are all royal graces?

He smiled and hung his head.

Duanwangfu didn't have much opinion on this family matter, and they really didn't dare to have any more opinions---- after the matter of the Fang family, Emperor Longqing followed up and applied for Duanwang, saying that he connived at the corruption of local officials, and cut his guards, and the guards were reduced from five thousand to two thousand.

He already understood very well that Emperor Longqing did not investigate the matter of the Yanzheng deficit case further down because he was still worried about Empress Fang and the face of the little prince, and if he was caught in any mistakes, waiting for the Duanwang Mansion would be a disaster.

There are ghosts in my heart, and my children have suffered some losses in their family affairs, so there is nothing to say.

Princess Duan also personally persuaded her son: "What is there to be wronged about?" It's just a wife, I really don't like it, so I'll put it on the table, and I can take more concubines. ”

Duanwangfu can figure it out, but Li Guiniang can't figure it out anyway.

What girl doesn't have a spring? Chu Jingxing is handsome and handsome, and he doesn't have the bad habits of other gentlemen, he is a real good person.

But what about Chu Jingzong?

It was a fat man who was no different from a pig, and he had a short temper since he was a child, and Duanwangfu said that he was sick and weak and refused to come out to see people, but in fact, because his temper was violent since he was a child.

When the emperor was still there, these people were still emperors and grandsons at that time, and they didn't have to shrink their tails to be people, Chu Jingzong didn't kill the palace people because of his violent temper.

Others don't know, but these people who grew up together, where are there people who don't know?

Li Guiniang was so frightened that her face turned pale, she couldn't even say anything while holding her mother's hand, and her tears were like beads with broken threads.

Princess Changying's face was also extremely bad.

The Shen family refused to marry, she had already begun to think of other ways to retreat for Li Guiniang, who knew that at this time, Emperor Longqing would make this will! Chrysostom said that the holy decree has been issued, and there is no room for change and activity!

She held her daughter in her arms, patiently and meticulously rubbed her daughter's head, resting her chin on the top of Li Guiniang's head, and her eyes were cruel and complicated.

This fat pig should have belonged to anyone, but it should never have been Li Guiniang's!

One wrong step, one wrong step......

She closed her eyes and whispered in her daughter's ear: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..... Ah Gui, don't be afraid, my mother will never ask you to suffer this loss......"

Li Guiniang, who had been in a daze, came to her senses, and shook her head dryly with despair in her eyes: "No, there is no way...... The decree has been issued, what else can be done? ”

No one can change the fact that she is going to marry Chu Jingzong.

She will live with this fat pig for the rest of her life.
