The emperor is embarrassed

Xu Yingyu and Zhang Taiyi went to Huaiyang with the order of Queen Mother Wei.

Fortunately, Empress Dowager Wei sent Zisu, a female official beside her, to Shanren Hall, so Wu Wan could take a breather and focus on Tianjin Port, and also cared about Shen Zhuoyan's injury.

Shen Zhuoyan lived with Lin Yongshang, Lin Yongshang was a poor and happy man, and the furnishings of his house were really shabby compared to his official position.

Wu Wan has never been to Lin's house, but just sent a maid to deliver things. When the maid came back, she sighed, "Mr. Shen's house is not half the size of our house. There are only about [-] houses in two, and there is not even a garden. Look to the end. A half-deaf old man is taking care of Mr. Shen. When the servants go, Mr. Shen is drinking porridge with a spoon in his left hand, it looks really pitiful."

Shen Zhuoyan injured his head and his hand, and it was his right hand that was injured. For a scholar, his right hand is half his life.Wu Wan felt quite guilty. Hearing that the Lin family only had one old family member, who was too old and had poor hands and feet, Wu Wan often ordered the kitchen at home to stew supplements for Shen Zhuoyan to replenish his body.

Although Shen Zhuoyan was somewhat complacent, he did not "sick" for too long.

He still has errands for the royal newspaper, and he is always "sick" at home, unable to see Wu Wan, to tell the truth, Shen Zhuoyan still misses Wu Wan.Although it has not reached the point that the ancients said "not seeing each other in a day is like three autumns", but I am always worried about it, so after taking the medicinal supplements for ten days, Shen Zhuoyan spontaneously healed.

He dragged Wei Ziyao to look for Xu Bingzhong first, and when he saw Wu Wan, he started looking for something to say, "Miss Wu, you've lost weight. Are you frightened?"

Being frightened is a matter of a lifetime, Wu Wan is helpless.Although Wu Wan and Shen Zhuoyan are similar in age, a woman's maturity is always ahead of a man's. What's more, Wu Wan has been through the world for a long time, so she asked him calmly, "Shen Juren, do you have time? Wu Wan paid me back for saving my life last time." I never thanked him in person. If Shen Juren is convenient, I will treat Shen Juren to dinner after I leave the office."

Shen Zhuo couldn't ask for it.

Wei Ziyao is a playboy, he pulled Shen Zhuoyan out, and whispered his idea, "Go and prepare some gifts, it will not be rude."

"I know."

The working hours of Shen Zhuoyan and Wei Ziyao are not as rigid as that of Wu Wan and the others. Shen Zhuoyan deliberately made it bright and beautiful. He found a new robe and changed it, and hung a jade pendant on his waist. Looking at it, it looks quite a bit handsome.

Wei Ziyao gave him the jade fracture fan from nowhere, "Take this, it will add more elegance."

Shen Zhuo said, "I don't want this, my uncle said, it's nothing to shake the fan around, it looks slippery."

Wei Ziyao smiled, "You really don't understand women's hearts."

"I understand Wanniang's heart."

"What an idiot." Wei Ziyao said to Shen Zhuo, "You are interested in Wu Wan, but let me warn you first, you are in the wrong family. But with Wu Wan's temperament, it is absolutely necessary to be a concubine. Impossible. You have an uncle of the governor on your head, seeing that your uncle usually treats you like a son, your marriage must be taken seriously by your uncle."

"Zhuoyan, you are very hot right now. If you really want to marry Mr. Wu, you have to communicate with your uncle first." Wei Ziyao sighed, "Mr. Wu is a girl, it is not easy to get here. If You don't have the ability to beat your uncle, so don't disturb his family's peace. A woman's family values ​​her reputation the most. " Wu Wan is difficult to marry now, and if there are rumors about her and Shen Zhuo's words again, it will be detrimental The most important thing is Wu Wan's reputation.

"Of course I'm sincere." Although Shen Zhuoyan didn't like to hear these words, he was not a child who didn't know the world. He understood Wei Ziyao's kindness and said, "I have already entrusted the older sister of the Xu family to bring a letter to uncle to explain the matter. I told my uncle in the letter."

Wei Ziyao didn't say anything.

Although Wu Wan has little influence in the imperial capital, she has a lot of money.

The table is very elegantly arranged.

Wu Wan poured the wine first and thanked, "Thank you Shen Juren for saving your life."

Shen Zhuoyan is a brat, he is very excited for the one he loves, his hand holding the toast trembles slightly, but he is not incompetent, and he does not lose his head because of this, solemnly said, "I am Those who volunteered to save you don’t need to thank you. I drank this wine.”

Wu Wan poured another glass of wine for Shen Zhuoyan, and Shen Zhuoyan held up a pair of cold lotus root slices with his chopsticks and chewed them in his mouth, suppressing the alcohol and said, "Miss Wu, you have been in the imperial capital for some time I live in my uncle's house, and now my uncle is the only relative. I was born in a farming family in Zhejiang and Fujian, and I am not a son of a prominent family. Because my uncle became an official, I came to the imperial capital Chunwei, and the result was wrong. "

"When I was young, my uncle took care of me. In the future, I will also take care of my uncle." Today, when Wu Wan served wine, Shen Zhuo said that she was happy, but she could guess some of Wu Wan's thoughts, so she simply said the words in front of her. Said, "My intention for the girl is not to blaspheme the girl. I have already written to my uncle about it, and I want to marry you as my wife in a serious way."

The refusal words that she had planned long ago stuck in her throat, Wu Wan was stunned for a moment, then shook her head for a long time, "No way."

"I'm a business girl, so I'm not good enough for you."

Shen Zhuo was a little anxious, and said, "There is no law that says that a business woman cannot marry a man. Besides, I don't have any skills, I just have a reputation. I don't want to be a high-ranking official. I think it's okay to be a royal newspaper." Very good. Miss Wu, I really think so."

"Shen Juren, if you think so, it doesn't mean that your family members also think so." Wu Wan said softly, "I've met many people. Like Shen Juren, a young man is only tall, and he will be famous. In three more years Years, Jinshi is already in your pocket."

"You have a high-ranking uncle, who is talented and famous. Now that you have the emperor's favorite, you can't marry any famous lady." Wu Wan's face is calm, and her determination is not comparable to that of ordinary women. With a clearer mind, he said in a gentle voice, "I was born in a merchant, and I am not stunning, and my temperament is not good, but my son has a bright future in front of me. If you marry me, you will be the laughing stock of the whole emperor."

"Now, I believe that you are sincere. Maybe you really don't mind other people's eyes." Wu Wan sighed, "I don't mind on the first day, I don't mind on the second day, the third day? What about the fourth day?"

"Man, there is no one who doesn't mind."

Wu Wan easily took back the initiative and said, "Since the young master speaks out, I will also speak clearly. I will never consider marriage with the young master."

Shen Zhuoyan didn't expect to achieve it overnight, he took a step back, smiled wryly, "It seems that I was rude, I apologize to the girl." He raised his glass and drank a cup, and the next best thing, "From that day on, I just ask the girl to be as good as before. Same."

"Impossible." Wu Wan is such a kind person, she immediately said, "In the future, you don't have to go to the place where I work, and you and I should also avoid suspicion."

Wu Wan's voice was extremely soft, steady and deep, "Shen Juren, I'm not someone who can be joked at will."

Shen Zhuo said hastily, "Miss Wu, don't get me wrong, I don't mean that." He is indeed not a frivolous person, and when he learned that Wu Wan thought so, he blushed anxiously, and beads of sweat dripped from the tip of his nose. It oozes out, bringing out a bit of pity.

Wu Wan was not moved in the slightest, and just beat the snake with a stick, "I hope that Shen Juren's words and deeds will be the same."

Shen Zhuo was speechless.

Not to mention the incident of Xiao Shen Juren's broken love, there is another marriage in the imperial capital that attracts attention.

Yong'an Duke's and Kang Guogong's mansions are overjoyed.

The Yong'an Duke's Mansion has been passed down to this generation, and it is not considered a prosperous family of first-class dignitaries.However, Wen Changfeng, the grandson of the Yong'an Duke's family, was appointed as a son-in-law, which brought a lot of honor to the Duke's family.Now the grandson of the second wife of Duke Yong'an's family is married to the daughter of Duke Kang's mansion, which is quite eye-catching.

Everyone knows that it seems that the daughter of Duke Kang's family was going to marry His Majesty the Emperor earlier.

At that time, His Majesty the Emperor was only the eldest son of Zhennan Palace.

It is said that the marriage was proposed by Zhennan Wang himself.

However, for some unknown reason, later His Majesty the Emperor was canonized as the Crown Prince from the son of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, and the Taishang Huang directly proposed marriage to the young lady of the Duke of Kang's Mansion.

It was none other than Wen Changzhi, the second son of the Wen family's second wife in Yong'an Gongfu.

The things here are really reminiscent of countless.

Moreover, it is the marriage of the two princes, so it has attracted a lot of attention.When the Empress Dowager Gongliwei heard about it, she was rewarded a lot.

Mrs. Kang Guogong's wife, Mrs. Du, personally checked her daughter's dowry carefully, and sighed secretly, her daughter is so unlucky, the original letter from the Zhennan Prince's Mansion has arrived, and she wants to hire her as the concubine.If there is such a blessing, now the daughter belongs to the queen empress.

Who knew that the situation in the imperial capital would change later, and the Taishanghuang would suggest another marriage for his daughter.

Although Duke Yong'an's family status is not low, but compared with the royal family, there is no noble family status.

The insufficiency in Du Shi's heart also stemmed from this.

Gold and silver jewellery, jewelry gemstones, antique calligraphy and paintings, clothing materials and medicinal materials, furniture and real estate, everything.This dowry went directly to most of the family property of Duke Kang's mansion.

Du Shi has a lot of money, not only because she loves her daughter, but also because she has no son.

In addition to the Du family, Kang Guogong also had concubines serving as housekeepers. However, Kang Guogong had only one son before, but died of illness at the beginning of the year, and now he only has the only daughter.Now Kang Guogong is over forty years old, and the chance of having any more children is not great. Even, Kang Guogong has already secretly planned the matter of adopting heirs.

No matter how good the heir is, he is not his own flesh and blood.

Therefore, when his daughter gets married, Duke Kang is naturally willing to spend his whole family in dowry.

At night, Mrs. Du thought that her daughter would get married soon and become someone else's family member. Her heart was like being put in a frying pan, suffering repeatedly, so she couldn't sleep well.

"Madam, don't worry, the Wen family is also from the Wang family."

"Alas, the population is quite large." Du Shi sighed, "There are even houses built in the garden, and the new house is just the courtyard of the little girl, not bigger than the daughter's boudoir."

"In these days, as long as we are harmonious and beautiful." Kang Guogong reassured his wife, "Besides, after a few years, the old Guogong will go away, and the family will always be separated. We sent our daughter to another hospital, and we are afraid that our daughter will be wronged?"

"My in-laws are still ahead, how can I live a leisurely life." Du Shi was very worried.

Kang Guogong repented, "If it weren't for the fact that there was nothing we could do at the beginning... the Supreme Emperor directly pointed out the marriage, we can only hope that our daughter will be good. At least as long as Kang Guogong's mansion is here, no one would dare to neglect her daughter." Obviously, His Majesty personally agreed to the marriage at the beginning. Later, the Supreme Emperor pointed out another matter of marriage. What can the Kang Guogong Mansion do?

Hearing her husband's downcast tone, Mrs. Du hurriedly said, "I was thinking too much. We are only such a baby, so naturally we are reluctant to part with it. Seeing that the son-in-law has a good temper, when he has grandchildren in the future, the daughter can live a good life."

"Exactly."
