Why are you so anxious?

Everyone entered the main hall back and forth.The decoration of Da Chu's main hall is similar to the Tang Dynasty style. There is no wall on the south side, and only a few pillars are used to support the eaves.When the winter is very cold, move a few screens to block the wind, and in the summer, you simply leave it to dry.It is a bit similar to the stage of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

The Lord Protector and Zhuang Lin declined to give in, but finally let Zhuang Lin take the upper seat, that is, at the side of the food table near the entrance of the hall.Facing the south, it is very convenient to directly enjoy the scenery in the garden outside the hall—or to observe Jun Shaoyou's every move.

Because Jun Shaoyou is young, his seniority is small, and he is a concubine, he should sit at the bottom according to etiquette.That is, the seat near the door.Zhuang Lin sat upright on it, and as long as his eyes shifted a little bit, he could see Jun Shaoyou's figure.This angle made him feel very comfortable.The regret of not being able to kneel next to Jun Shaoyou also eased a little.

Jun Shaoyou knelt down at the last seat with lowered eyebrows, ignoring Zhuang Lin's good mood.The rest of the family members were also very surprised to see Jun Shaoyou who had been bedridden for a long time due to chronic illness and did not participate in family banquets or guest banquets.But when he saw Zhuang Lin sitting upright above him, he felt dazed again.Immediately, I started whispering with my close family members.Jun Shaoyou's second brother, Jun Shaojie, sneered, gave him a contemptuous look, and turned his head to whisper to his elder sister, Jun Rouran.

Jun Rouran is 17 years old. Although she doesn't look as good as Jun Ruiqing's other concubine sisters, she can be regarded as a delicate and beautiful woman.Especially because of her high status, she is the only direct daughter of Duke Huguo's mansion, so she is quite favored on weekdays, and she has a graceful and arrogant demeanor.At this time, the front is full of spring, and he looks shyly staring at Yong'an Wang Zhuanglin, looking for something to say from time to time.Her words were full of flattery and flattery, most of them were talking about how easy-going and quiet she was, and how she treated her concubine sisters kindly on weekdays.

She already knew Jun Shaoyou's proposal from Yang Daimei last night, although she was unwilling to be a concubine.But just like what the mother said, Jun Shaoyou, a man, was unable to bear children for King Yong'an, and he relied on the Duke Protector's Mansion to support him, even if he was a big wife at that time, he would not dare to bully her wantonly.And once Jun Rouran gave birth to Zhuang Lin's heir, she would be the actual hostess of Yong'an Palace. When Jun Shaoyou's beauty faded and her love faded, without King Yong'an's favor, she would let her squeeze her.So endure the momentary anger, there will always be rewards.

Of course, at this time, she still doesn't know Zhuang Lin's attitude this morning.

At the same time, Zhuang Lin was still thinking about the plot between Jun Shaoyou and Duke Huguo last night. Although he stopped him in time, he was not happy.At this moment, seeing Jun Rouran talking endlessly again, her expression gradually turned cold.He has not forgotten how this woman bullied his family's Shaoyou.Although Shaoyou himself didn't care, as a husband, it would be too useless for others to step on Shaoyou's head to show off his power.

Determined to help his concubine, Zhuang Lin looked Jun Rouran up and down with extremely critical eyes for a long while. His eyes were as sharp as a knife's edge digging meat, and its vulgarity was like that of a peasant woman who went to the pork archway to pick pork in the market. gaze.After scrutinizing it carefully for a while, he turned his head to look at Jun Shaoyou who was at the bottom.Zhuang Lin shook his head and said nothing.

It's just that in his behavior, his disdain for Jun Rouran was fully revealed.

The hall was suddenly quiet for a moment, and all the concubines and concubines were whispering among themselves.Jun Rouran only felt that her face was burning badly, and her eyes were overflowing with water.Yang Daimei was very distressed, even Jun Ruiqing's complexion was not very good-looking.But it's not easy for him to criticize. After all, Zhuang Lin just glanced at Jun Rouran and didn't say anything bad.If he suddenly refuted it, it seemed that he had a guilty conscience.

Zhuang Lin disagreed.He is the eldest son of His Majesty, he has received thousands of respects and honors since he was a child, and he has been in the army for several years, he can be called a high position and authority.His maternal grandfather, the old general of Zhen Guo known as the "God of War", was the casting stone of the military.With the help of his grandfather, he has already controlled most of the military forces in his young age.If it weren't for Jun Shaoyou's heart, the so-called nobles who had no ability like Duke Hu, who had already disarmed and returned home before the court's borders were all secure, would not have caught his eyes at all.So he has the right to be arrogant, and even more qualified to show his anger and anger, so that some people who don't wink will quickly disperse, lest he can't even eat lunch if he reacts—if someone is dissatisfied again, He is even more lost.

Noticing Zhuang Lin's frequent "praise and touch" gazes, Jun Shaoyou didn't care, so he couldn't help but smile at the moment.It's one thing not to take Zhuang Lin's overtures to heart, but it's another thing for someone to stand up for him.I still remember that Jun Shaoyou was framed and impeached several times in his previous life by the censor, and Zhuang Zhou always stood by with a troubled expression on his face.After the dust settled, he ran to him and was filled with righteous indignation. Princess Pingyang also helped his brother to excuse him, in order to make himself innocent.Compared with Zhuang Lin at this moment, Jun Shaoyou suddenly felt that his vision in his previous life was really not very good.

There are some things that have already been revealed, but he has never paid attention to them, so it is his own fault that he ended up like that in the end.

Jun Shaoyou bowed his head in thought.His predecessor is Shiro Jun Shaolan.Both of them were concubines, and Shiro's biological mother, Aunt Chen, and Jun Shaoyou's biological mother, Aunt Shen, had always been friends, and both lived in the same courtyard, so their relationship was closer than others.

At this moment, Jun Shaolan turned sideways secretly, and sneered against Jun Shaoyou's earlobe: "This Yong'an King is a wonderful person. If you marry him, it's better than being neglected and bullied in our house."

He said again: "In the past, that person always relied on the love of his parents to bully us concubine children. Now he is also being beaten in the face under our noses. It is really a cycle of heaven and bad retribution."

Jun Shaoyou raised his eyebrows casually.Jun Shaoyou didn't care at all about this eldest sister who was playing with her concubine younger siblings in full view just because of a disagreement.Judging by her demeanor, she is just a spoiled and spoiled girl.Jun Shaoyou never thought how smart this woman was.The Da Chu Dynasty had an open atmosphere, so naturally it would not treat women as harshly as Cheng Zhu Neo-Confucianism in later generations.But that doesn't mean total indulgence.Before a man and a woman get married, they always check each other out.

The woman asks if the man is young and talented, what is his family background, and what is his temperament.While the man is aware of his family background, he focuses on inquiring about the woman's temperament.There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and Jun Rouran's behavior of bullying concubine sisters without restraint during the boudoir period also brought her a lot of trouble.Flaws in her reputation are second to none, the most important thing is that Jun Rouran didn't develop a forbearable and gentle style of behavior at home, so that after she arrived at her husband's house, she was noisy and troublesome every day.In the previous life, when I needed to use it in front of the Holy Majesty, my husband's family always tolerated it in every possible way because of the prestige of the Duke Protector's Mansion.But after his own death, he can't know whether his husband's family will make trouble or not.

But at this time, Jun Rouran, who couldn't bear the contempt and harshness of the person she admired, had already left the table with a sad face.Disregarding the reputation and rules of the Duke Huguo's Mansion, Jun Ruiqing's face was once again gloomy by his behavior of blindly playing with his temper.Zhuang Lin was still so indifferent.Playing with the cup in his hand, he watched Mo Xijun Shaoyou's every move.The purpose of his coming today is obvious, to support Jun Shaoyou.

In fact, he was also quite curious about Jun Rouran's thoughts.Since she knew that she liked Jun Shaoyou, how could she, who had only bullied Jun Shaoyou before, dare to jump in front of her.Wouldn't it be that he fantasizes that he is a beautiful woman, a natural beauty, who can make Zhuang Lin abandon Jun Shaoyu at a glance, and fall in love with her instead?

Thinking of Jun Rouran's upright face, which was quite similar to the Duke's wife, Zhuang Lin shuddered.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became weird.Jun Ruiqing waved his hand to let the dancer and singer come forward to perform, at least breaking this embarrassing silence.It's just that everyone in the hall has their own thoughts, and the next meal will naturally be tasteless.

After the meal, Zhuang Lin greeted his departure with a smile.All the family members also went back to their rooms to rest.

It is only said that Jun Shaoyou returned to his small courtyard calmly, preparing to take a nap.Just as he undressed and washed, he heard a commotion outside the yard.Immediately afterwards, Jun Shaoyou was not surprised to see Jun Rouran bristling with anger.Randomly picked a coat from the shelf and put it on, Jun Shaoyou raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Your feet are on the ground, why did elder sister come to my yard today?"

Jun Rouran's eyes were about to burst into flames, she pointed at Jun Shaoyou's nose viciously, and asked sternly, "You bitch, what did you say to King Yong'an? Are you telling lies in front of him? Said I was not good, so that King Yong'an misunderstood me?"

Jun Shaoyou chuckled lightly, shook his head with a smile and said, "You didn't see your mother before you came, and didn't your mother tell you the purpose of King Yong'an's visit?"

Jun Rouran's face turned livid in an instant, and she refused to believe it only after she knew it.She refused to believe that she was infatuated with King Yong'an, and that King Yong'an actually abandoned her like a scrap of paper.Instead, I fell in love with Jun Shaoyou who has nothing but his face.

"It must be you, a bitch, who bewitched the prince. You are like your shameless aunt, who hooks up with men whenever you see him, is promiscuous, and doesn't care about any shame. Why would King Yong'an take a fancy to you, a bitch?"

Jun Shaoyou clenched his fists in displeasure, but still smiled calmly and said: "Eldest sister said yes. Before you and me, there was indeed a man who couldn't move when he saw a man. They didn’t care about it. They didn’t care about the reputation of the Duke’s Mansion, so they left the banquet without hesitation, and made people in the capital laugh at our Duke’s Mansion for not being able to raise their children. If you are willing to marry as a concubine, you will be abandoned like a piece of paper.”

Jun Rou suddenly changed color, and the nurse, maid and others standing behind him immediately reprimanded: "Mr. Wulang, you are so courageous, how dare you—"

Jun Shaoyou ignored the servant's nonsense, and immediately said: "I advise elder sister to calm down now. Now it is a done deal, and I will become Princess Yong'an in a few days. At that time, I will surpass elder sister in terms of rank and status. If my sister doesn't want to have troubles when talking about marriage in the future, you'd better show some respect to me."

"You—" In terms of eloquence, a person who has been domineering and practicing force since childhood is naturally no match for Jun Shaoyou, who was born as a writer and used Internet scolding as his amateur career.In the last life, Jun Shaoyou was able to make Zhuang Lin feel ashamed many times with his sharp tongue, and even had to give up the credit for his achievements, which shows that his words are sharp.

Now it's just a small test of sharpness, the angry Jun Rouran's face is purple, trembling all over.Immediately a slap came over.

Jun Shaoyou took two steps back calmly, avoiding Jun Rouran's slap.He raised his hand and grabbed Jun Rouran's raised arm again, and said with a gentle smile: "If I were you, I would go back to my room now and think about what is wrong with me. As a woman, she is still a woman of not low status. She even recommended herself as a concubine, but no one responded to her, which shows how much the eldest sister has failed in life. You are seventeen years old, and you haven't talked about your in-law's family until now. Don't you want to stay at home and act as a daughter-in-law for you? Eldest brother prop up the door of the house, right?"

The words were a bit vicious, and it was a tactful curse that Jun Rouran would not be able to marry for the rest of her life and would be an old maid at home.Of course, you can also recruit a son-in-law.However, this kind of behavior is obviously telling others that Jun Rouran can't get married and has to recruit a son-in-law with her natal family's power, and she is even more throwing away the Duke Huguo's mansion.Presumably Jun Ruiqing, the patriarch who cared most about the family's development, would rather send Jun Rouran to the temple to be his aunt than agree to recruit a son-in-law.

Jun Rouran's nurse and servant girls saw Jun Rouran was at a disadvantage, and immediately rushed up to rescue Jun Rouran.But Qiufu led the little girls in the yard to stop her.Jun Shaoyou glanced at Qiufu appreciatively.No matter what this woman is thinking in her heart, Jun Shaoyou likes this kind of cleverness of observing the situation and taking advantage of the situation.

Lin's mother cut out her eyes like a knife to block her little maid, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Wulang, although you are referred to as Princess Yong'an by the Holy Majesty, you are still the concubine of the Duke Huguo's mansion. You have not married into the Yong'an mansion. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to bully my sister-in-law."

"I'm just bullying others, pretending to be majestic, what can you do to me?" Jun Shaoyou pulled a smirk on his lips, and flatly threatened: "Either, you let my mother poison me to death regardless of the imperial decree. Or, wait until I marry into Yong'an The queen of the palace must make the elder sister famous everywhere. What does Mama Lin think?"

Mother Lin was terrified, and stared at Jun Shaoyou with righteous indignation, but she didn't dare to say another word.It is needless to elaborate on how important a woman's reputation is before she is married.This kind of responsibility is not something she can take on as a wet nurse.

"Jun Shaoyou, you bastard!" Seeing that the domineering nurse had also been knocked out by Jun Shaoyou, Jun Rouran shouted Jun Shaoyou's name hoarsely in a panic.The piercing and sharp voice made Jun Shaoyou lean back involuntarily, letting go of the hands that restrained Jun Rouran.Taking two steps back, he said helplessly, "Elder Sister, I'm not talking about you. Although Da Chu treats women more generously than before, the big family still pays attention to three obediences and four virtues, and women teach women precepts. Study these things carefully. In the future, if you marry into your husband’s family, it’s fine even if it’s just to show off.”

Jun Shaoyou sincerely said this.In her previous life, Jun Rouran acted too recklessly and even offended her elders and in-laws on the matter of her husband taking concubines, so the elders of the clan were talked about a lot.There are a lot of women in Chu dynasties who are tough and domineering, but there are still a few cases like Xiang Jun Rouran who are accused by her husband's family.So although Jun Shaoyou's remarks were malicious, if Jun Rouran could really listen to them, it would be her gain.

It's a pity that Jun Rouran, who has always been accustomed to being raised by others, would definitely not listen to it.With a crying voice, he said "I want A Niang to make the decision for me", and he left like a whirlwind.

The rest of the maids and nurses have exhausted their momentum, so naturally they can't do anything.In the end, it was Mama Lin who said harshly, "I must ask my wife to make the decision for the eldest lady", and just now Hulala dispersed like a bird or a beast.

Seeing this, Qiu Fu leaned forward and said, "Lang Jun's actions like this may be bad for your reputation."

It is unavoidable for people to pay attention to Jun Shaoyou's narrow-mindedness, flaunting his power as soon as he received the imperial edict, without a city.

When Jun Shaoyou heard this, he sneered, shook his head and remained silent.

Although I don't know how Zhuang Lin mediates to get His Majesty to agree to marry a male concubine.But for the Yong'an Palace, it is better to have a "female" master who is successful and flamboyant without a city, rather than a counselor who is deep and impeccable.In his previous life, Jun Shaoyou didn't understand the truth that when the forest is full, the water will overflow. He showed his sharpness everywhere and was tabooed by others.Since I have time now, I might as well do more harmless stupid things.

As the saying goes, it is rare to be confused.For the rest of your life, what are you doing so smartly?
