Rebirth of marriage

As soon as the grandson of Zhenguo Gong returned home, he saw Zhao Huaikang and his wife waiting at the door and Nanny Qin next to the old lady.

Zhao Qingyun entered the palace because of a conflict with people from Dali Temple. Although the minister of Dali Temple was later demoted and sent to prison, they heard that Prince Xiao was seriously injured and dying. The two of them left the palace and rushed to Prince Xiao's Mansion without seeing him. They are always worried until they get home safely.

"Are you injured?" Zhao Huaikang and his wife hurriedly pulled their son around to check.

Nanny Qin was waiting on behalf of the old lady. She also looked at Zhao Qingyun with her eyes, so that she could go back and report back to the old lady.

"My son is fine. My parents are worried." Zhao Qingyun held one in each hand and comforted his parents.

He knew that his grandfather was going to his grandmother's yard, so he coaxed his parents to leave first.

The Duke of Zhenguo stepped into the old lady's yard.

The old lady was waiting for Nanny Qin to reply to Zhao Qingyun. When she saw the Duke of Zhen came in person, she hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Is Qingyun injured?"

Duke Zhen Guo found a chair and sat down with a tired face. After dismissing the servants in the room, he sighed, "Qingyun is fine, but Prince Xiao is seriously injured. The imperial doctors are doing their best to treat them. I'm afraid..."

The old lady poured a cup of tea and was about to hand it to Duke Zhen Guo. After hearing this, she was so shocked that she dropped the teacup. "It's really that serious. Will it implicate our Qingyun, and will it implicate Duke Zhen Guo's government?"

After all, that happened to King Xiao and Qingyun together.

Duke Zhen Guo looked at her intently and slowly breathed out a sigh of relief. Seeing her like this, she didn't know about Song Nianru sending people to assassinate King Xiao. Fortunately, she didn't participate.

The old lady was shocked by what he saw and said, "If you want to scare me to death, please speak quickly."

Duke Zhen's eyes turned cold. If Xie Jiu and Xiao Wang hadn't been vigilant and noticed Song Nianru's evil plan in advance, and if they hadn't chosen to trust Duke Zhen's government, they would have known that Sister Cheng Cong was taken away by the servants of Duke Zhen. In this regard, the Zhenguo Government is also involved.

Song Nianru, this vicious woman, is vicious-hearted, greedy and bold and ignorant.

How dare she place chess pieces around the prince to harm the prince because she was dissatisfied with Nihuang's marriage, but she didn't want to think about it. Her daughter was the one who took away the thank you wine for this marriage. How could she be dissatisfied?

It happened that his old wife cooperated with the poisonous woman and Marquis Mingyuan to hide so many things from him. Now she actually knew that she was worried about the Zhenguo Duke's mansion and her own grandson. Looking at the old lady's anxious face, the Zhenguo Duke felt that Extremely ironic.

He said solemnly, "I will think of ways to try not to let this matter involve the Zhenguo Palace, but Nihuang... you can untie her."

The old lady then remembered that if King Xiao died, Nihuang's marriage would be ruined, and she sighed, "Why did my poor Nihuang get into such a thing? After waiting for so many years, it was all in vain."

If he had known that Prince Xiao was short-lived, the emperor should not have allowed him to agree to the marriage when he asked the Duke.

Now that she is eighteen, she is an old girl, and Nihuang is still a princess. Looking at the whole capital, there are few sons of the right age who are worthy of her.

Her Nihuang was destined to marry into the royal family!

Royal?

She suddenly remembered what Mrs. Qian had said before, that in terms of the best husband, it had to be the third prince.

Yes, the status of the third prince is much nobler than that of Prince Xiao. Isn't Nihuang the legitimate son of the queen and the new emperor in the future?

Isn’t she the future...mother of the country?

In that case, why worry about Qingyun having no help in the future, and why her natal family, Mingyuan Hou Mansion, will be in dire straits.

Perhaps it was God's will that put King Xiao in such a difficult situation. Since it was an opportunity given by God, he had to seize it.

However, the Duke of Guo is a die-hard man, so I'm afraid it will take some effort to make him willing to deal with this matter.

She suppressed her excitement and said tentatively, "The best way to solve the problem is to find a better marriage for her than the current one. His Majesty gave her the title of Nihuang and a royal marriage. It shows that His Majesty is satisfied with this child. Yes, if King Xiao is gone, could you please ask your majesty to arrange a marriage between the third prince and Nihuang? They are the same age and are a perfect match."

She looked at Lord Zhen Guo expectantly.

Duke Zhen Guo quickly lowered his head and hid the rage in his eyes. She really dared to think that after decades of marriage, he didn't know she had such ambitions or that she was so stupid.

When the emperor granted marriage to Nihuang and Xiao Wang, didn't he just want the Zhenguo Palace to side with Cao Dang? If he dared to mention marrying the third prince, the emperor would be the first to deal with the Zhenguo Palace.

He took a deep breath and said, "I'll figure out a way to get married. We can't hide the fact that King Xiao is injured. The most important thing right now is Nihuang. I see that she is interested in King Xiao, so that she won't act impulsively." Regarding the matter, look at who she was closer to in the past, and please come to the house to comfort and relieve her."

The old lady nodded, "I understand. Tomorrow I will ask Nianru to come to the house and ask her to persuade Nihuang. She has always been very good to Nihuang and understands her temperament."

"Okay, then let her stay in the mansion for a day or two and spend time with Nihuang." Duke Zhen Guo still lowered his head and rubbed his eyebrows with his fingers.

Previously, his old wife often talked about Song Nianru's kindness in front of him, saying that the Qian family was destroyed because of the Nihuang family, and only Song Nianru was left. They should teach Nihuang to respect Song Nianru more, as a way to repay the Qian family's kindness.

But does she know that the Qian family mother and son were harmed by Song Nianru?

The Duke of Zhen Guo took off the hand that was rubbing his brow and looked at the old lady again, "I dreamed about Qian Biao last night. He said that he died unjustly. He blamed me for why he didn't avenge him."

"Why don't you report it? Didn't you find the assassin? How can you be blamed?" The old lady muttered, "This man is also a stubborn person. He has been dead for so many years and he still entrusts you with such a dream. It would have been earlier Isn’t it bad to be reincarnated?”

Either she was too good at acting, or she was really unaware. Duke Zhen still preferred the latter. Although she favored her mother's family, she was not so deep in the city that he couldn't test her out.

He added, "I don't know why, but I often dream about it recently. I also dreamed about Huai'an. Huai'an cried to me, saying that I didn't take good care of Leyao and he couldn't rest in peace underground."

The old lady was stunned for a long time before she remembered that Lexiao was the name given to the child by Huai'an. She suddenly panicked, "Have you really dreamed about Huai'an? He, he can't rest in peace? How could he..."

Speaking of her eldest son, the old lady's tears fell again, "I didn't know that Huai'an can't rest in peace. He never enters my dreams. I thought he had already been reincarnated. He can't be worried about me. Tomorrow I will Go talk to him."

Duke Zhen Guo understood everything in his heart, this stupid thing.

But to prevent her from doing anything bad, he coaxed her, "Maybe it's because Nihuang's accident has made me restless these days, so I'm thinking wildly. Maybe it's not Huai'an who fell into the dream at all, otherwise he would definitely fall into your dream too..."

With his explanation, the old lady gradually calmed down and decided that it was the Duke who was thinking about her every day and dreaming at night, and it was not Huai'an that she was dreaming about. She was the most filial person in Huai'an. If she could really dream, she would definitely come to see her as a mother. .

She took a sip of tea and looked at Lord Zhen Guo, who was especially talkative and patient today, and her thoughts became vivid again, "You said earlier that you wanted to show Qingyun Xiang the wedding, so I paid attention. Ruoyi came to see me these two days, We haven’t seen each other for a while, and that child’s temperament has become more and more outstanding, and he is also extremely filial. He is a perfect match for Qingyun, you see..."

"Qingyun has to let it go beforehand." Duke Zhen interrupted the old lady's words. He stood up and said as gently as possible, "Nihuang's matters are more important. You should be more attentive. I have to go back to the study to deal with some things."

After that, he strode out of the house, really not wanting to hear a word more from her.

From what she said, Ruoyi knew that the daughter of Marquis Mingyuan was not the wife of the head of the family at all. She herself had harmed her son. She didn't have enough granddaughters, and she wanted to drag her grandson into a pit of fire.

Marquis Mingyuan, Duke Zhenguo hummed these three words in his throat.

If Song Nianru had colluded with Marquis Mingyuan, was he also involved in the death of Qian Biao?

He must have been involved. According to Xie Jiu, Song Nianru didn't have anyone available, but Marquis Mingyuan did, so there was no way those assassins were his.

At that time, he lost Huai'an and Qian Biao at the same time and was busy with their funeral affairs. Marquis Mingyuan cried with him and finally took over the task of tracking down the murderer. If he did it, of course he would not find anything, and he would also Take the opportunity to erase all traces.

When he was busy with the funeral affairs of his children, he saw that there was still no news from Mingyuan Hou. When he came to investigate on his own, it was difficult to find anything. Mingyuan Hou's qualifications were mediocre. He did not find out the murderer, and he never suspected that he was the murderer. He is causing trouble.

But once you become suspicious of a person, everything you look at becomes suspicious. Could it be that Huaian was injured or even died in battle because of his handiwork?

Huaian is gone, Huaikang is unable to do anything. If Qingyun continues to do nothing, or marries his daughter, the military power and connections of the Zhenguo Palace will most likely fall into the hands of Marquis Mingyuan, who has been with him since childhood. He is the ultimate beneficiary.

If this is the case, he wants his Mingyuan Marquis Mansion to be overthrown, and his daughter wants to marry into the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.

Fucking dog dreams!

Duke Zhen Guo returned to the study room and punched the desk hard. There were a few tears in his muddy old eyes. He wiped them randomly and called the secret guard to come in. He still had many things to do and was not worthy of being sad here. .
