The emperor's imperial edict arrived at the Duke's Mansion, and Wei Guohuai took the old lady and several wives and concubines to receive the edict. He thought that the emperor would reward Wei Jingyuan again, but he never thought that it would end up as a marriage gift, or a marriage gift to his own daughter. .This decree came too suddenly, after Wei Guohuai had sent away the palace servants, and when the wives and concubines had left the main courtyard, he almost fainted from his breath.

The old lady panicked, and hurriedly asked someone to invite Dr. Xiang to enter the mansion. After a while, the doctor left. The old lady sat in front of the couch and comforted her: "This is all predestined. Since the cicada has this blessing to enter It is also the honor of the Wei family to accompany the crown prince in the palace."

"Mother." Wei Guohuai sat up from the steps, and said with a gloomy face: "How could the emperor give the marriage for no reason? Chan'er usually stays at home, and the crown prince has never seen her. If you want to be persuaded by others, you must ask the queen." Just nod there." Wei Guohuai firmly believes that there is some unknown secret in it, "Mother, my son guesses that the matter of Chan'er should be caused by someone behind the scenes, otherwise..."

The old lady raised her hand and signaled Wei Guohuai not to continue, "Huai'er, the imperial decree has been issued, and there is no possibility of turning back this matter. If you don't allow Chan'er to marry, it will be against the holy will. Get up." The old lady let out a long sigh, and continued: "The wedding date is scheduled for two months later, you'd better put your mind on it."

Wei Guohuai knew that he was powerless, so he pondered for a while and said: "Mother, Chan'er has always been united with Mrs. Chen, and my son is afraid that she will..."

"Mr. Chen is a man of means, and everything has to be observed secretly."

The meaning of the old lady is very clear, Wei Mengchan is from the Chen family, and she is not close enough to Wei Guohuai and others on weekdays, not to mention the existence of a relationship with Concubine Shu, Wei Guohuai is worried, for fear that Wei Mengchan will become Concubine Shu after entering the palace a pawn.Thinking about it this way, Wei Guohuai felt that it didn't make sense. Wei Mengchan's temperament was very similar to that of the Chen family, and she knew how to plan every step of the way. If she became a crown princess, how could she be willing to be at the mercy of Concubine Shu? When the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, wouldn't she be the queen? ?Concubine Shu and Chen Shi really have the confidence to control Wei Mengchan for their own use?

People are selfish, Wei Guohuai firmly believes.

The old lady also considered this point, she poked her head over after thinking for a while, and whispered to Wei Guohuai with her ear.

Wei Jingyuan ate in the east chamber accompanied by Liang Zhen, and did not go to the main courtyard to receive the imperial decree. He was already ill, and the emperor would not blame him.After finishing the evening, Liang Zhen graciously handed tea to Wei Jingyuan. After hesitating for a while, he finally said what was in his heart: "Master, it will take a long time to go back to Yingzhou. Is this troublesome?"

Wei Jingyuan took a sip of tea, and slowly said: "I will be leaving in a few days, you can come and go more frequently, I will arrange Yuanbao to meet you in the mansion, the emperor has rewarded you with a lot of fun in the past few days, you take all of them Let's go out and exchange for silver taels."

"Yes, I understand." After finishing speaking, Liang Zhen got up and said hesitantly, "Master, Wei Mengchan will enter the palace in two months, you said she..." Liang Zhen didn't finish his sentence, but smiled at Wei Jingyuan Laughing, "Master, do you still remember the woman the prince brought in from outside the palace?"

Wei Jingyuan laughed and said: "He Zeng forgot, have you paid attention to the movement over there recently?"

Liang Zhen said with a smile: "You little three-headed and six-armed man, I must keep an eye out for you." Liang Zhen came to Wei Jingyuan's side, bent over and whispered, "Recently, the prince's frequent contacts with her are still under the eyes of the queen and Wen Tao. , Xiao Xiao thinks that this matter will be exposed soon."

Wei Jingyuan raised his hand and said with a smile, "Not necessarily."

"Master?" Liang Zhen really wanted to know why Wei Jingyuan was so sure that the matter between the prince and the firework girl would not be publicized. After all, as the prince, Liu Xian had made many enemies, and there were not a few people secretly staring at him.

Wei Jingyuan saw that Liang Zhen was puzzled, and immediately explained patiently, "Although the crown prince and the second prince have a deep relationship, they will definitely send someone to watch the prince's every move secretly, but now is not the best time to do it. Don't you forget, he Both of them are facing the wall and thinking about it now. Although the emperor's punishment is not severe, it is enough for them to drink a pot."

"What about the fourth prince Liu Nian?" Liang Zhen asked again.

Wei Jingyuan said with a smile: "Liu Nian is still young, and his mind is not familiar. Concubine Mei is a person who knows how to weigh the pros and cons. She knows the truth that Mu Xiu is bound to be destroyed by Lin Feng, so how can she willingly become her footsteps?" Shi, make a wedding dress for someone else."

Liang Zhen understood, "In this way, isn't it a waste of time, sir?"

"How can it be in vain, have you forgotten who I am following?"

Liang Zhen's eyeballs bumped wildly, "Master, you mean that the third prince will..."

"He knows how to calculate better than Concubine Mei." Wei Jingyuan smiled a little helplessly, "Although His Highness is young, this skill of weighing may not be worse than others, and with Li Zhuoyan as a master by his side, in the future... " Wei Jingyuan's words stopped short, and he said in a moment: "Your Highness, there is no need to worry. As for the matter between the crown prince and the firework girl, it will be resolved when he and Liu Gan regain their freedom."

Liang Zhen got it right, and joked: "I still understand, the little one admires you more and more."

Wei Jingyuan couldn't help but said, "Read more books in your spare time." After speaking, Wei Jingyuan waved his hand at Liang Zhen, "It's getting late, I'm tired, you, go back and forth wherever you want."

Liang Zhen was very savvy, and bowed to Wei Jingyuan, "Let me go, my little one, let me rest earlier."

Liang Zhen retreated from the house, and after closing the door, he saw Yuan Bao stand up from the stone steps, patted the dust on his buttocks and said, "Hmph, there are no rules, I will pull out your tongue and cut off your hands sooner or later, Let's see if you are honest or not in the future."

Liang Zhen didn't care what Yuan Bao said, and still acted foolishly, "Yuan Bao, I didn't see that you are young and have a vicious heart. If my father pulled out my tongue and cut off my hands, what good would you gain from it?"

"You... you, you, you." After all, Yuan Bao was not Liang Zhen's opponent, he stared angrily, and couldn't even utter a word.

"Okay." Liang Zhen walked over and patted Yuan Bao's shoulder, "We are also serving the Lord, so we should love each other. If I am really punished by the Lord, who will handle the future?"

"I'll do it, don't say I can't live without you, huh."

"Just you?" Liang Zhen raised his hand and looked at Yuan Bao with disgust on his face, "You are the only one who wants to help the master go deep into the tiger's den to do big things? I think...you have been practicing for more than ten years."

"You..." Yuan Bao pointed at Liang Zhen angrily, his small face was wrinkled in anger, his eyes, ears, mouth and nose seemed to be twisted together.

Liang Zhen was in a good mood, "I won't tell you anymore, the Lord has orders, I have to hurry up and do things."

Whenever Wei Jingyuan had serious orders, Yuan Bao seemed to have grown up suddenly, instead of making cold eyes with Liang Zhen, he calmed down and said, "Go out from the back, there are people coming from the palace today, I'm afraid there are more people in front."

Liang Zhen looked at Yuan Bao in surprise, smiled and didn't say anything, jumped up and disappeared before Yuan Bao's eyes.

After Liang Zhen left, Yuan Bao brought water into the door, "Young Master, Yuan Bao will help you wash and change your clothes."

"Not busy, put it aside for now."

Wei Jingyuan was reviewing the book, and now that Yuan Bao came in, he told him what to do in the future, "Liang Zhen will come to the house more these days, you just pick a few valuable things and hand them over to him every day." .”

Yuan Bao responded, "Do you want to exchange it for silver taels?"

Wei Jingyuan tilted his wrist, the book seemed to be placed on the table, he looked at Yuan Bao with a smile, "Yuan Bao, you have grown up."

Yuan Bao smiled and lowered his head, "Yuan Bao still has a lot to learn, so please stop praising me, young master."

"Okay, then I won't praise you." Wei Jingyuan picked up the book again.

The next day, Wei Jingyuan had just gotten up, and before breakfast was ready, he saw Yuan Bao rushing in from the outside, "Young Master, Madam is here." Yuan Bao was always staring at the East Wing, and the Madam was there. As he was coming this way, Yuan Bao came to report immediately.

Wei Jingyuan sat at the table and said with a smile: "I have expected it, just wait."

In less than half a cup of tea, the eldest lady brought Qian Mama and others to the door, "Yuan'er, do you still feel unwell?"

Wei Jingyuan clenched his fists subconsciously, and no one noticed it was covered by his sleeves.Wei Jingyuan didn't know Chen's purpose in his previous life, so he naturally regarded it as a mother who cared about his son. Now that he knows everything, if Chen still acts so intimately, Wei Jingyuan will feel an indescribable disgust.

"With a mother caring for her son, the son will naturally get better sooner."

Mrs. Chen smiled, sat down and looked at Wei Jingyuan carefully, "You look pretty good today." After finishing speaking, Mrs. Chen winked at Mama Qian who was behind her, and Mama Qian came up with a food box, "Madam knows that the young master There must be no breakfast at this time, no... Madam got up early and cooked some food for the young master." Mother Qian brought out some snacks from the food box and placed them on the table as she chattered. After sitting on the table, he said with a smile: "Madam loves the young master the most, and all the cooking is what the young master likes to eat."

Wei Jingyuan felt extremely disgusted, Mama Qian said that these foods were made by the eldest lady herself, he did not doubt this, but if he wanted to say that these were Wei Jingyuan's favorite food, it would be a bit self-indulgent.Looking at the snacks on the table, none of them are Wei Jingyuan's favorite.That's right, Wei Jingyuan is not a parent of the Chen family, so how could she remember what Wei Jingyuan likes to eat and what he dislikes.

The play had to go on, Wei Jingyuan pretended to be happy, took a piece of snack from the table and put it into his mouth, while eating, he said with a smile: "It would be great if mother could make it for Yuan'er every day."

Mrs. Chen was obviously taken aback, and then seeing Wei Jingyuan's happy look, she couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.Even though Mrs. Chen has the means, she is still a woman after all. She also thought about treating Wei Jingyuan as her own son, but unfortunately...she couldn't do it, as long as she thought of her child being stillborn before she was born. , her heart was full of hatred, so she couldn't be nice to Wei Jingyuan. In her eyes, Wei Jingyuan was just a chess piece. If it can be used, it can be used, and if it can't be used, it should be thrown away.

The sadness in Chen's eyes was fleeting, and then she returned to her smirk, "As long as Yuan'er likes it, if mother is free, I can order it for you."

Wei Jingyuan swallowed like a jujube, unable to speak to Chen Shi at all.

Chen shi breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, is Concubine Shu too much of a shadow of a snake!

"Yuan'er, someone came to the palace yesterday."

Wei Jingyuan's eating movements were slightly stagnant, with a smile in his eyes, thinking that he was finally going to talk about business.
