Marry the Regent [Time Travel]
Chapter 2
Xue Yunzhou was a bit shocked, and turned his gaze from the beam back to Mr. Chen's face: "Hehe... Me? Married? Regent?"
Mr. Chen vaguely felt that the laughter was strange and inexplicable, thinking that he was so happy that he couldn't finish his words, so he nodded quickly: "Exactly! This is a great joy for our Zhongyi Houfu! The Eldest Young Master took it back, Lord Hou misses the Eldest Young Master very much..."
Manager Chen's voice gradually became faint, and several bloody characters flashed in Xue Yunzhou's mind: I!get married!Regent!
Seeing his dull eyes, Kang tugged at his sleeves worriedly.
It took Xue Yunzhou a long time to come back to his senses, and he gave her a comforting look.
He really doesn't have a good impression of the Hou Ye that Mr. Chen said, not to mention why that man abandoned his wife and son, just looking at the change of face of the manager, he has a conflict with the so-called loyal Hou's mansion, and when he goes back, it will be a marriage The pawn married to the Prince Regent who has never met before, just thinking about it gives me chills.
Manager Chen was still babbling about how the Marquis of Zhongyi cared for his son. Xue Yunzhou was already very impatient to hear that. He turned his head and saw that Mrs. Kang's face was ugly, as if he was going to faint in the next moment, so he quickly stood up straight and supported her. Smiling at Mr. Chen, he said: "Thank you, Lord Hou, for your concern. It's just that this marriage came too suddenly. I wasn't prepared at all. I can't go back with you today. Besides, I was planning to participate in Qiu Wei..."
Director Chen originally felt that Xue Yunzhou's words and deeds were a little different today, but now he was even more surprised to hear him say this: "Didn't the eldest son already answer to Lord Hou last time? How could he not be prepared at all? As for Qiu Wei , this... Marries into the palace, so naturally you can no longer participate."
Kang's body swayed, and he looked up at Xue Yunzhou, his expression seemed a little hurt: "Yunzhou, have you seen Lord Hou?"
"I..." Xue Yunzhou was confused.
Seeing his hesitation, Mrs. Kang grabbed his wrist sadly and eagerly: "It's not like you haven't heard of the reputation of the regent, how can you marry him? What did the Marquis say? Did he force you?" ? How can you agree! "
"Ma'am, you really can't blame the eldest son, let alone the Marquis." Mr. Chen lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of being heard by others, "It is the regent who has taken a fancy to the eldest son, and he insists on sending the eldest son over. The young master was born in the Zhongyi Marquis's Mansion, so I'm afraid that even the three mediators and six hires will be saved, and it is possible to be carried over directly to be a concubine."
Being a concubine... Xue Yunzhou only felt goose bumps all over his body, and couldn't help shaking.
"What's wrong with you?" Kang looked at him with concern.
"It's okay." Xue Yunzhou grinned, and silently added: I'm just lamenting this magical world.
Director Chen smiled again and said, "My lord, the carriage is already waiting outside, when do you think we will leave?"
"Well... I still have something to do here, come back tomorrow."
Xue Yunzhou acted naturally, but Director Chen was surprised again, secretly thinking that this eldest son was looking forward to returning to the Hou's Mansion the most in the past, and even when facing the decent servants of the Hou's Mansion, he was a bit submissive, why did he suddenly become hardened today?Could it be that he is confident that if he marries the regent, he will be favored?I heard that the regent only met him once, could it be that they have actually had a lot of contacts in private?
Mr. Chen's train of thought made nine twists and eighteen turns, and he didn't dare to be negligent. Seeing that Xue Yunzhou insisted on not going back with him, he had no choice but to respectfully agree, and after a few more compliments, he turned and left.
As soon as the man left, the butcher next door walked over with big strides, and gave Kang two pig knuckles: "Here, your son was almost beaten to death, so cook soup for him."
Kang didn't care about her words, and thanked her with a smile: "I'm really sorry for being taken care of by you all the time. I made you a dress, and I'll bring it to you. You sit down first."
The pig-killing woman suddenly smiled like a flower, and said boldly: "Neighbors, I will help you today, and you will help me tomorrow. Come and see, why are you polite!"
Xue Yunzhou felt that this pig-killer was too interesting, so he couldn't help giving her a funny look.
The butcher put on a gossipy face and pouted outside the gate: "Who is that person?"
"Guess?" Xue Yunzhou responded casually, without being polite to her, Da Lala sat on the stool next to him, tapped lightly on the table with his slender fingers, and began to think about the possibility of escaping marriage.
At this time, the pig butcher couldn't care less about wondering about his behavior which was very different from usual, and her dancing eyebrows and eyes showed great interest: "I see he looks like a rich man, tsk tsk, look at that outfit, he is very particular! There is also a car parked outside. Not to mention the extravagance, there are still seven or eight guards guarding the carriage. This is the capital city, and there are many dignitaries. Although I am a pig butcher, I am not lacking in knowledge. The nobles always like to ride in the carriage. Put a sign on it, from the Zhang family, from the Li family, from the Shangshu family, and from the prime minister’s family, so as not to collide with each other. It’s a pity that I can’t read, otherwise I would know which family he belongs to..."
Xue Yunzhou fell into deep thought, listening to her words in one ear and out in the other.
The pig-killer talked for a while and saw that no one responded to her. She felt very bored, rolled her eyes, and approached her in a low voice: "Oh! Is that man on good terms with your mother?"
Coincidentally, at this time, Kang came out from the back room, heard her words, and suddenly became embarrassed: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
The pig-killer took the clothes from her hand in a nonchalant manner, and said to him from left to right: "This dress is so beautiful! Your craftsmanship can even be used as an embroiderer for a rich family."
Kang smiled unnaturally: "It's just for making a living."
The pig-killer obviously liked the gift very much, and she praised it a few more times before going back satisfied.
Kang shi sighed softly, silently washed his elbows clean, and started to choose vegetables in suspense, the room was silent for a while.
Xue Yunzhou finally came back to his senses. Seeing that she was depressed, he hurried over to help, but she pushed her away with her hand, and smiled flatteringly: "Mom, are you upset?"
"No, gentlemen stay away from the kitchen, these are not what you should do."
Xue Yunzhou snatched the food from her hand: "What kind of a gentleman is not a gentleman? Those are the scholars who say it to make me lazy. Mother should stay away from the kitchen. It is the son who is not sensible and makes mother work hard. From now on, the son will let you enjoy the happiness of."
Kang is not a pedantic person, so he let him go after being relieved, but looked at the skillful movements in his hands, and couldn't help being surprised: "When did you learn to do these?"
Xue Yunzhou paused, then changed the subject: "Mother, I don't want to marry the Prince Regent, can we leave the capital?"
Kang stared at him, and sighed earnestly: "Since you didn't want to, why did you agree in the first place? The regent is tyrannical and lecherous, and he also bears the name of suppressing his wife. The few marriages mentioned earlier are yellow." Well, the little concubine who was brought in in the backyard also heard that two or three died, as for how they died, although outsiders don’t know, but the rumors are not good. It’s not a good thing that he took a fancy to you.”
"..." Xue Yunzhou shook his hand, and almost threw the chosen dish onto the wall. He tried his best not to curse out the word "scum". I don't bother to figure out his character, but right now I really have a strong curiosity about this "Xue Yunzhou".
How stupid is he to agree to marry such a scumbag?
Xue Yunzhou didn't get a good night's sleep. In this era when imperial power is supreme, it would be suicide to disobey the will of a prince, let alone the regent who holds a lot of power.Once he runs away with his old lady rolled up, what awaits him will definitely be the joint pursuit of the royal family and the Zhongyihou's Mansion.
He didn't believe that the father in the Hou's mansion would be kind to him, and he didn't want the Kang family to live a miserable life because of him, although the Kang family was very happy.And as far as he knows, the world is in chaos now, and there have been several peasant uprisings in the south, allowing the Kang family to escape among the refugees. If he doesn't take good care of him, anything may happen.
Escaping from marriage is absolutely impossible, so can we just resign ourselves to marrying?
Xue Yunzhou tossed and baked the cake all night on the hard wooden bed, and finally decided to take it one step at a time. The next day, under Kang's worried eyes, he obediently followed Mr. Chen back to the Hou's Mansion.
Although the regent's reputation is not good, but relying on his powerful position, no one dares to underestimate her. Xue Yunzhou, as a regent princess who has not been married, will always be the object of everyone's flattery as long as she has not been cheated to death.From the moment he entered the gate, everyone he met was respectful to him, as if he was really the eldest son of the Hou family who was valued and had never been kicked out.
The current aunt Ji of the Hou Mansion is the daughter of General Ji's family. Xue Yunzhou was taken to greet her as soon as he settled down.
Ji's family may look much younger than Kang's because of proper maintenance, but it's a pity that he has a face of passers-by. If he didn't wear luxurious clothes and make-up, he might not be recognized on the street.Xue Yunzhou talked with her loving mother for a long time, and he didn't remember what she looked like until he left.
In the evening, Zhongyi Hou Xue Chong returned to the mansion and called Xue Yunzhou to the study. Seeing that his movements were a little stiff when he saluted, but his expression was very calm, he couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
Facing his scrutinizing eyes, Xue Yunzhou smiled back faintly.
Xue Chong frowned almost imperceptibly, and soon eased his expression, and said gently: "I will go and see your dowry tomorrow, father will not treat you badly, those will be your own in the future, if there is anything missing , just tell your mother." This mother naturally refers to the Ji family.
Xue Yunzhou should be respectful, and quickly began to think of this dowry in his mind. After all, he has nothing now, and it is always exciting to add a property for nothing.
Xue Chong cared a few more words in a soft voice, then took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to him, whispering: "Proceed with caution."
Xue Yunzhou thumped in his heart, and subconsciously reached out to take it, his eyes fixed on the porcelain bottle, wishing to poke a hole to see what was inside.This kind of feeling is really terrible. One accident after another made him completely confused. Looking at the serious expression on the other party's face, this mysterious sentence should be known by everyone. He can Stupid enough to ask what's in it?
With a thought in his mind, Xue Yunzhou immediately put on a hesitant look, looked at the cheap father in front of him, and hesitated to speak.
Xue Chong patted his arm reassuringly, and said in relief: "Since he has taken a fancy to you, he will definitely not be too vigilant on the big wedding night. You have to play it by ear and put your own safety first. You did it for your father." So much, father knows you are filial and will not treat you badly."
Xue Yunzhou really wanted to look grateful, but his acting skills were mediocre, so he nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, my son understands!" At the same time, he raised two middle fingers in his heart.
"Father has always been at ease with you." Xue Chong chuckled, then changed the topic, "By the way, how is your mother recently?"
Xue Yunzhou was very surprised. Could it be that he still misses his ex-wife?
"Mum, everything is fine."
"Hmm..." Xue Chong seemed dissatisfied with his answer. He lowered his eyes and fell silent for a moment, then said slowly, "Right now, marriage is the most important thing. Your mother is not in a hurry, take your time."
Take it easy?What are you taking your time!
Xue Yunzhou felt that this time travel was too frustrating.
Mr. Chen vaguely felt that the laughter was strange and inexplicable, thinking that he was so happy that he couldn't finish his words, so he nodded quickly: "Exactly! This is a great joy for our Zhongyi Houfu! The Eldest Young Master took it back, Lord Hou misses the Eldest Young Master very much..."
