[Red Mansion] Ronghua Road of Mrs. Hou's Mansion

King Ning was given permission by the emperor to recuperate in the palace for a period of time because of the severe poison in his body. Even after the poison was cured, the emperor never mentioned the matter of letting King Ning return to the Zongzheng Temple. On the surface, he seemed to believe that King Ning was Innocent.

The fact that King Ning was imprisoned in the Zongzheng Temple and poisoned was known to many people, so when King Ning returned to the palace to recuperate, many people went to visit him, and Gu Xingchi and Sister Feng also looked for opportunities to go.

Princess Ning invited the two of them in, and she saw the pale Prince Ning leaning on the bed, his body was very weak.

Seeing Gu Xingchi, he twitched the corners of his lips, "I'm not feeling well, please forgive me for not being able to get up to meet him."

Gu Xingchi said: "Your Highness, you don't need to be polite. I came here today just to check on His Highness's condition."

King Ning smiled bitterly, "If I had listened to you, I wouldn't have fallen to this point. Now it's too late to regret it, and it has aroused my father's suspicion."

Gu Xingchi smiled faintly, "Your Highness doesn't blame me for risking your life?"

King Ning sighed helplessly, "I understand what Lord Hou means. If he hadn't been ruthless and put life and death aside, how would father believe me? Lord Hou made such a bad move to save me. How can I blame you?"

Gu Xingchi shook his head and chuckled.

King Ning suddenly became suspicious, "Why is Hou Ye laughing, am I wrong?"

Gu Xingchi said indifferently: "Does Your Highness really think that His Majesty believes you?"

King Ning was taken aback, "What does Lord Hou mean by this?"

Gu Xingchi said: "Your Majesty is already suspicious, and this matter is full of doubts. How could Your Majesty trust you so easily? But His Majesty can rest assured that, similarly, His Majesty did not trust the Crown Prince either. Both you and the Crown Prince are under suspicion by His Majesty." , That's why His Majesty let you go, and let the prince go back and think about the past."

King Ning raised his heart just as he let go, "Then how can I get my father to dispel his suspicions about me?"

Gu Xingchi shook his head, "According to Your Majesty's personality, once you have suspicion and wariness towards a person, it is difficult to get rid of it. Rather than thinking about such an impossible thing, His Highness, it is better to start with the Crown Prince."

"Prince?" Ning Wang showed hesitation, "Just after this happened, if I continue to plot against the prince, I'm afraid it will arouse the annoyance of my father."

Gu Xingchi smiled, "Your Highness is wrong. This time, I am not eager for quick success, but to strike while the iron is hot. Besides, I am not asking you to plot against the prince, but to use the prince's nature to lure him into doing things that he wants to do but dare not do." .”

King Ning frowned, "How to strike while the iron is hot?"

"Naturally, we should set this fire on His Majesty." Gu Xingchi said, "You have to let His Majesty feel the same way, so that he can completely hate and give up the prince. For example, when the prince defiled Yu Niang, your majesty does hate the prince, but it's not because of the prince. He did whatever he wanted, but because the crown prince caused agitation among the common people, exposing the scandal would hurt the face of the royal family. To put it bluntly, that Yuniang is just a commoner, and even if she is humiliated by His Majesty, it is nothing serious."

King Ning understood a little bit, "You can also prove to my father that the prince is indeed a beauty-loving and daring person. In this way, my father will also believe that it is true that the prince forcibly raped Yu Niang."

Gu Xingchi took a sip of tea with a relaxed expression, "I know His Highness has his own people in the palace to compete for that position. Since His Highness understands what to do, I will wait for the good news."

King Ning said with a smile: "Thank you, Lord Hou, for your reminder. This time, I will definitely prepare rigorously, not to reveal any flaws, and not to give the queen and the prince any chance."

Just after the incident between the crown prince and King Ning, the emperor received another news that shocked the court and the public, and the southern vassal state rebelled.

In this way, it is natural to send someone to lead the army to fight the enemy.In the court hall, the emperor discussed with all the ministers for a long time, and decided to send the king of Nan'an County to go.

Sister Feng has memories of her previous life, so she was not surprised when she heard this, and she began to think about Tanchun and her marriage.

During this period, Xiang'er and Heping'er's marriage was also finalized.Gu Jin took the initiative to tell Gu Xingchi that he wanted to ask Xiang'er to marry him. Sister Feng thought that Gu Jin was good, so she asked Xiang'er's opinion, and Xiang'er agreed with a blushing face.

Mr. and Mrs. Zheng Guanshi, who help Sister Feng to house the house, have a son. Hepinger is the same age. I agreed with joy.

As for Ying Zhu, Sister Feng would naturally not forget her.When it came to her daughter's marriage, she didn't show any shyness. Instead, she said openly that she didn't want to get married. She felt that it would be good to stay with Sister Feng for the rest of her life, and she would be more relaxed. ma.Sister Feng respected her wishes and used her more and more afterwards.

Xiang'er and Heping'er are not young anymore. After the Spring Festival, Sister Feng arranged the marriage of the two and gave each of them a dowry, which was very respectable among the maidservants.

But the two were reluctant to part with Sister Feng, and Sister Feng couldn't do without them, so they still served Sister Feng after they got married.

Now that Yingchun is not married to Sun Shaozu, if the king of Nan'an is defeated and captured, it is hard to guarantee that Jia Amnesty will not take the initiative to let Yingchun take the place of Yi'an county head to marry in order to please Nan'an dowager, so Sister Feng thinks that Yingchun's marriage should be settled soon.

On this day, Gu Xingchi came back from court and suddenly said, "Didn't you ask me to find out if there is someone suitable for the second girl of the Jia family?"

Because Yingchun is Jia Lian's younger sister, Gu Xingchi still feels a little jealous when he mentions this.

Sister Feng sat beside him, held his hand, and asked with a smile, "Which family's young master?"

Gu Xingchi drank a cup of hot tea before he said slowly: "The son of the Zhou family, Zhou Chengyuan. Although the Zhou family is not a wealthy family, the family background is considered to be well-off. The family population is also simple, with only a widowed wife and mother. I also know how to make progress, and relied on my own ability to sit on the position of the commander of the Wucheng Army and Horse Division. Although he is only a sixth-rank officer, he is still young and has the possibility of promotion in the future. As for character——he is Jiang Chaoan My friends, I think their character is not bad, and they will always treat their wives kindly."

Sister Feng thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, the official position is not the most important thing, as long as the person is good. Yingchun's temperament is not suitable for that kind of high-ranking family."

Gu Xingchi helped Yingchun because of Sister Feng, he didn't put himself in Yingchun's shoes.He said casually: "If you think it's appropriate, you can find an opportunity to ask her."

Sister Feng shook her head, "You don't know, Yingchun is not in control of Jia's family, and no one will listen to her wishes in marriage, and the elder of Rongguo Mansion is unreliable. In my opinion, it's better to go directly to the old man. Taijun makes up his mind. If we can get along with the Jiang family, I think the Jia family will agree."

Gu Xingchi said: "Since that's the case, I'll let Jiang Chaoan spy on Zhou's family. If they agree, they will find someone to go to Rongguo Mansion to talk about marriage."

Soon, Jiang Chaoan asked Zhou Chengyuan what he meant, and Zhou Chengyuan told Zhou's mother, and nodded after discussing.It didn't take long to invite a matchmaker to Rongguo Mansion to talk about marriage, skipping Madam Xing and Jia Amnesty, and went directly to Jia Mu.

When Mother Jia heard that the Zhou family was related to the Jiang family, she was a little moved.Moreover, the Jiang family is related to the Wang family by marriage, and Zhou Chengyuan is a general, so it might be possible to benefit from the Wang family.

Jia's mother came to Jia She, his wife and Jia Zheng, and felt that the marriage was a good one, so she decided on the marriage without asking Yingchun.

Being able to get rid of the Jia family, Sister Feng was happy for Yingchun, but if Jia Amnesty knew that there was such a "good thing" as a marriage, I'm afraid I would regret it.

After the Shangyuan Festival, Baochai also got married, and Sister Feng also went to the wedding banquet.

Thinking of what happened in the past few months, Sister Feng sighed.

Yingzhu smiled and said: "Why is Madam sighing, is there anything to worry about?"

Sister Feng looked down at Sister Qiao who was smiling all the time, and couldn't help feeling happy, "I'm just sighing, time flies, all the sisters who used to be in the boudoir are getting married, and even Daiyu has to think about marriage. gone."

Yingzhu smiled and said: "According to Miss Lin's background, appearance, talent and education, she will naturally have no worries about marriage."

I was afraid that someone would seek to marry Daiyu out of greed for the power and property of the Lin family.

Just after the Shangyuan Festival, the emperor fell ill again. In order to please the emperor, the prince pretended to be a filial son and asked to serve the emperor. However, King Ning was still recuperating at the mansion, unable to serve the emperor in his clothes.

The prince wondered if King Ning had changed his nature. It stands to reason that King Ning shouldn't compete with him for his sickness, but should he play the role of a filial son?Could it be that King Ning was emboldened by what happened last time and wanted to hide his strength and bide his time?

Gu Xingchi was also called into the palace by the emperor, but he didn't come back until evening.
