reborn wife

Chapter 78

The Wen Mansion, which had been overshadowed by Fourth Miss Wen Zhiyan's shady incidents, quickly returned to its former bustling scene because of another happy event.

On the third day after entering the palace to meet the queen mother, the third young lady Wen Pei, born to Aunt Gui, officially received the imperial decree and was canonized as a fourth-rank beauty.

This status is not high, but for a little girl who just entered the palace and is just a concubine, she is decent enough. It can be seen that the queen mother and the emperor have given Wen Shoufu enough face.

Even Aunt Gui is finally proud, her status in the mansion has risen, and she walks like the wind blows under her feet.

But she is still a kind person who has been oppressed by the Qian family for so many years in the mansion. This time, Wen Zhiru's incident is also thanks to Wen Zhiru's help behind the scenes, so no matter how people in the mansion gossip about this Wen The young master of the mansion is different now, and offended Lord Shoufu, she still went to Wen Zhiru's small courtyard two or three times and brought in a lot of valuable things.At first glance, many things are known to be rewards from the palace.

Wen Zhiru is also a good person who will do his best to the end, since he agreed to send Wen's concubine into the palace, he naturally didn't leave any points that should be mentioned.

The emperor's son is meager, so there is no way to escape the matter of choosing a concubine, but now the situation in the court is tense, and the empress dowager in the harem also wants to cover the sky with one hand, the emperor does not want to spend too much manpower and material resources on it.Therefore, it is inevitable to choose a woman from an aristocratic family to balance the power of the harem.

But the Empress Dowager summoned Wen Yu first, with both a reward and a hint, obviously trying to draw this little girl from a low family background into her camp.

So Wen Xi's identity is a bit subtle.

Standing behind the empress dowager was Prince Rui. Although the whole court didn't say anything about the relationship between him and the emperor, everyone had a certainty in their hearts. But the situation didn't get out of hand, and no one dared to act rashly.

Therefore, if Wen Xi wants to have a foothold in this harem, it is not enough just to seek refuge in the camp of the queen mother and concubine Shu. She must also be able to deal with the queen mother and the emperor. As for being affected.

Aunt Gui is also very transparent. After being analyzed by Wen Zhiru, she naturally understands the stakes. She hastily expressed her gratitude and said that if there is another small move by the Qian family in the future, she will send someone as soon as possible. Come and report.

"There's no need to report the letter. It's only a few days before I stay in this mansion. If you and Sanmei have any troubles in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to help you. I can only say what I have to say." Make it clear once today."

Aunt Gui: "Eldest Young Master, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing. A good man has ambitions everywhere. I'm also at this age. It's time to go out and practice."

After the next year, Wen Zhiru was only fifteen years old. Even if he went to Shanxi Mansion with the son of the virtuous king and won the emperor's commendation, he had neither obtained any honors, nor had he even been to a serious private school. The meaning of the master and the old lady at home seems to be unwilling for him to set foot in the officialdom.

Want to leave Wenfu?What is the situation?

Could it be that just because he offended his master last time, now he is going to drive everyone out of the mansion?

"Actually... how can father and son have an overnight enmity? If the young master doesn't dislike it, I'll help you go to the master and talk about it, please forgive me?"

"Auntie is worrying too much. I know what's going on with Dad. You have managed to gain some prestige in the mansion recently, and even Dad is willing to go to your place to sit and chat with you from time to time. Don't sweep me away because of my business." You two are interested." Wen Zhiru looked at Aunt Gui's still worried face, and then persuaded, "It's nothing serious, I went to Shanxi Mansion a few years ago, and saw a lot of the mountains and rivers of the Dajin Dynasty along the way. , I’m really happy, so this time I also want to go out and see the world.”

Aunt Gui is indeed still worried: "How long will the young master be going this time?"

Wen Zhiru: "At least a year and a half, and at most two or three years, there is no need for my aunt to put these thoughts on me. The third sister has just entered the palace, and it is just when she is about to go up and down. My aunt is still free. Pay more attention to the third sister."

"Yes, the young master mentioned this. The master happened to mention it when he came to me two days ago. What the master means is that the Wen family has the current family business, so there is actually no need for his daughter to go to the harem to seek the emperor's fortune." A little favor, to stabilize the position of the imperial court, after all, it is not a good destination. However, now that things have come to this point, my niece is willing to go this way by herself, and the master has nothing to say, but just told me to tell My dear son, getting ahead in the palace is the second priority, being wise and protecting one's life is the most important thing."

Wen Zhiru: "Yes, Dad's thinking like this is also for the sake of the third sister. After all, the power in the harem is complicated, and the third sister is a newcomer, so it's better to be cautious."

Aunt Gui nodded and said, "Master also mentioned about the Empress Dowager that day, saying that since our niece has received the grace of the Empress Dowager, after entering the palace, there will always be people who will think that we are helping the Queen Mother, so let the niece be careful , and there is no need to deliberately disregard the relationship, as long as it can be a favor, if there is any excessive request over there, let the concubine stabilize it first, and then ask the people around him to come out of the palace to spread a word, after all, it is the Wen family. The daughter who goes out, don't let her be bullied outside for nothing." As she said this, Aunt Gui's eyes were wet.

These years, she has been attached to the Qian family in the mansion. Although it is not as difficult as Aunt Mei and Wen Zhiru before her identity was restored, she has been oppressed everywhere in the end. There is almost no sense of presence.

I thought that after Wen Yu entered the palace, everything would depend on himself, but I didn't expect Wen Yanfeng to say such words of caring for his daughter. At that time, Aunt Gui was so moved that she didn't know what to do.

"Whether it's the third younger sister or the fourth younger sister, they are all father's daughters. Father looks colder on weekdays, but in fact he cares about these family members in his heart. However, big men don't always show their feelings. Auntie, you got father." If so, you should feel at ease."

"Yes, it is thanks to you, young master, that my son is here today."

"You can't thank me for these words. You've been talking for a long time, and my ears are getting callused." Wen Zhiru didn't have the heart to accompany a middle-aged woman here for a long time, and pretended to be tired. a yawn.

Aunt Gui also understood immediately, "Then I won't disturb your rest, young master."

************************

Aunt Gui left Wen Zhiru's courtyard, and the cold wind who had been hiding in the dark handed a letter to Wen Zhiru.

Just looking at the words "Zhiru" on the envelope, it is not difficult to guess who wrote it.

The weather was still cold, the little girl Fusheng replaced the hand warmer with new charcoal fire and walked into the house, just in time to see her young master opening letters.

"Who is it? Is it a letter from the son?"

"It's none of your business." Wen Zhiru took the hand warmer and waved his hand to drive away the gossiping little girl, "I asked you and Fu Cui to help me pack some things in the morning, is it ready?"

"It's almost there, there is a little bit left, and sister Fu Cui said she can handle it." Fu Sheng couldn't help but continued to gossip, "But young master, you have only been back from Shanxi Mansion for two months, where are you going to play? This Can you take me and sister Fucui to see the world next time?"

"What are you playing, you know how to play?!" The letter sent by Jin Yihui was very short, and Wen Zhiru finished it after a glance. Now he has received it again in the envelope and held it in his hand without any pain. He tapped Fu Sheng's head, "It's okay to tell you. But don't shout for a while."

"Yes, yes, yes." Fu Sheng leaned over and stood next to Wen Zhiru, pretending to be mysterious, "Young master, just tell me quietly, and I promise not to tell anyone else."

Looking at such a lively and innocent little maid, Wen Zhiru couldn't help feeling a little bit reluctant, "My son—I mean the young master of Prince Xian's mansion, he will leave Beijing tomorrow."

Fu Sheng's eyes widened and she almost screamed out: "! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh therefore'"

Wen Zhiru frowned and reminded her to calm down: "Didn't you already know it two days ago?"

Fu Sheng: "But...but I thought it was just Prince Xian's anger..."

Wen Zhiru: "Prince Xian doesn't count on cutting the rank alone, he has to report to the court. Now that the emperor's imperial decree has been issued, it doesn't matter whether Prince Xian is angry or not."

"Then—" The little girl always had too many questions, and Wen Zhiru didn't let her continue.

"These things are not the focus of what I want to tell you. Now that he has lost his title and has a rift with the prince, he plans to return to the fiefdom of Prince Xian's mansion temporarily, and I want to be with him."

Fu Sheng: "!!!Young master! So this letter is... the eldest son of Prince Xian asked you to leave Beijing tomorrow? Where is the master—"

Wen Zhiru: "After I tell you this, I will go to see my father and explain everything."

"Master, can you bring sister Cui Er and me with you this time?"

"I didn't go out this time to go sightseeing, and I don't know how long it will be before I come back. You two girls' family, why are you running around like this?"

Fu Sheng shook her head: "Master, every time you go out you will leave the two of us behind, there will be no room for us in this mansion from now on!"

Wen Zhiru: "Actually, these days, I've been thinking about this too. I'm not a young lady of the Wen family now, and it's always inconvenient to keep a close maid by my side, or I can help you as a matchmaker to find a good one? "

"Master!!!! Slaves don't marry!"

Fu Sheng wanted to protest a few more words, and Fu Cui just happened to enter the room and took a look at the mysterious master and servant: "I've only been out for a while, what are you and the young master whispering here?"

"Sister Cui'er! The young master and the eldest son of Prince Xian's mansion didn't take us with them when they went out this time, and even said they wanted us to be betrothed!"

Fu Cui reacted relatively calmly to the news: "The young master and the eldest son are both men. It is always inconvenient for us to serve them when they travel far. It is also impossible to follow the dowry like a married lady, sooner or later she will not only serve others, but also go out of the house to marry."

After being analyzed so rationally, Fu Sheng's reaction seemed to be making trouble out of no reason. Fu Sheng shrugged her mouth, unable to refute, but was very unwilling, lowered her head and was very depressed.

On the contrary, Wen Zhiru looked at such a sensible big maid Fucui, and remembered that she was the one who worked hard and loyally accompanied him in her previous life until the end, and felt a little more unbearable, and persuaded: "Don't be so pessimistic. You can control this life." I don't have any ambitions. I only think about my brothers and sisters. My father and my great-grandmother are doing well. I don't rush into the affairs of the two of you. If the fate really comes, I will naturally give you a generous dowry to make you look good. Just marry and be a young mistress, and no longer have to endure hardships to serve others. If the fate has not come, and if you two are willing to stay in Wenfu, I will also take care of the servants. In the future, I will not be here, and you two will live in this yard with peace of mind. Or if you want to leave the mansion, I can also buy you a suitable house, buy some land, and live a good life..."
