Chapter 340 The Princess's Marriage

But on this day, Shangguan Luan just kept his grievance and unwillingness in his heart, and didn't complain much in front of Mrs. Wu Dinghou.

When Mrs. Wu Dinghou left the palace, she couldn't hide her worry. She decided to go home and discuss with her husband about the eldest daughter's strange attitude of refusing to leave the palace.

When Mrs. Wu Dinghou left, Shangguan Jing was accompanying the Eldest Princess Xiao Mingrui and Yi'an Princess He Lingyao. The three of them were talking and walking towards Queen Chen's palace.

Going to Weiyang Palace twice a day made Shangguanjing feel that she must have some sinful relationship with Empress Chen today.

"My aunt hasn't come to see us in the palace for a long time," Shangguan said with a smile, "Jing Heng is fine, he can go out of the palace on weekdays, and can often go to the Princess's mansion, but I'm so pitiful, I miss my aunt and cousin very much, but I can't wait for you all."

Shangguan Jing didn't mean to flatter her. To her, the Eldest Princess Xiao Mingrui was a kind elder who took care of her since she was a child. She still has a lot of affection for the Eldest Princess and her family.

"Lingyao's marriage is scheduled for the end of the year." Xiao Mingrui sighed slightly: "There are many things to do, but she herself is so careless that she has to be urged repeatedly for everything, so I have to do it every day. Take care of her at home."

"Is my marriage still not on my mind?" Shangguanjing couldn't help laughing at He Lingyao: "Could it be because I'm embarrassed?"

"What's there to be embarrassed about." He Lingyao smiled generously: "Is it just getting married...it's nothing unusual. Everyone wants to get married, and my mother has done so much work, and everything has to be prepared, as if I can't go back later It’s like home. I just married to the Zhen Guo General’s Mansion, and it’s not far from home.”

"I heard that my cousin's husband was promoted to Lieutenant Zhaowu just a few days ago," Shangguan Jing said, "I haven't congratulated my cousin yet!"

"Sigh! We may have to go to the border soon after getting married." Xiao Mingrui sighed worriedly: "At the beginning when we were discussing marriage, there were so many good boys, but she just fell in love with the general's family, and I don't know what to think."

"Of course it's because of character and family education." He Lingyao was quite straightforward: "Didn't my mother say that General Zhen Guo's family style is good at the beginning? General Zhen Guo was at the border for 20 years before, and he never took a concubine."

"That's true, your future father-in-law is also deeply in love with his wife." Xiao Mingrui nodded: "It's just that this general's family will inevitably run to the border, and they will part when they are married. Mother is worried about you!"

"There's nothing to worry about." He Lingyao replied with a smile, "Wouldn't it be more comfortable to live at home when my husband isn't here?"

"You're really heartless." Xiao Mingrui immediately frowned and said, "You're going to get married soon, let's see what you're talking about!"

"Cousin doesn't look forward to newlywed life at all?" Shangguan Jing also asked.

"How should I put it..." He Lingyao answered after thinking carefully: "I'm not that repulsive, nor are I looking forward to it, anyway, I have to get married. The Ye family has a good family style, and I think Ye Kejian is also pleasing to the eye. Isn't that great! You guys Just don't worry about it, I will definitely have a good life in the future."

Speaking of General Zhen Guo's family, Shangguan Jing suddenly thought of Mrs. Wu Dinghou who had just visited.In fact, General Ye was not as good in the army as Marquis Wu Ding. Although the position of General Zhen Guo was a high rank of the second rank, it was a vain title with no real military power.

General Zhen Guo has guarded the border for more than 60 years, and he only returned to Beijing at the age of [-]. Now he is in a semi-retired state when he returns to Beijing.

And He Lingyao's father-in-law is currently serving as the general of Zhuwei. After his son got engaged to the princess's daughter, the emperor promoted him because of his nepotism.The generals of the guards are actually about the same age as Wu Dinghou, and they have been guarding the border for many years. However, after returning to Beijing for many years, they are only a fifth-rank general Ningyuan.Compared with Wu Dinghou, who became a second-rank official as soon as he returned to Beijing, and was still a glorious and glorious marquis, it is simply not worth mentioning.

The Ye family has been in the army for two or three generations, and Shangguan Jing doesn't believe that the opportunist Wu Dinghou can outperform the Ye family on the battlefield!It can only be said that honest people are really bullied...

Mr. Feng said long ago that those straight-minded military generals can't compete with Shangguan Yi, who was born in a civil servant family, when it comes to striving for success and ingratiating themselves with his superiors!

But fortunately, the emperor gave General Ye a relatively high position for his niece He Lingyao's sake, but he was still an important position in the Jinwu Guard, so he could be regarded as a general of the forbidden army.

"Auntie," thinking of this, Shangguanjing looked around and said in a low voice, "My mother came here today. She mentioned my father's official position. I guess my father has taken a fancy to the military position of the Jinwu Guard. I prevaricated, and I told her to discuss with Jing Heng in a few days and ask Jing Heng to ask him to be a duke. But I don't think my father will be satisfied, he must want a position of real power. "

"Understood." Xiao Mingrui nodded: "I will remind General Zhen Guo when I have a chance."

"It's really..." He Lingyao shook his head: "Your third brother is the first 22-year-old official from the fifth rank since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Right now, everyone in Beijing is staring at Shangguan's house. He also wants to serve as a Jinwu Guard. I'm not afraid of choking if I eat too much."

"That's what I said." Shangguanjing nodded in agreement: "I heard that my cousin will go to the Ministry of Officials in two days? This is good, my cousin is not very old, and my third brother is not so eye-catching." gone."

"Jing Heng's nepotism hat can't be taken off." Mentioning this, He Lingyao couldn't help laughing: "My brother has been terribly worried these two days. Didn't Prime Minister Chen's eldest grandson just transferred to the Ministry of Officials to be the Secretary of the Ministry of Officials?" Master! These families are rushing to take up positions in the Sixth Division right now!"

The three talked all the way, and soon arrived at the gate of Weiyang Palace, Empress Chen still sent Ningshuang to welcome them.As soon as he entered the gate of Weiyang Palace, Shangguanjing saw the direction of the window of the west side hall, which was pushed open a small crack, and Li Chongyuan showed half of his face from inside, looking out.

Shangguanjing looked in the direction of Li Chongyuan's line of sight, and found that she was not looking at Shangguanjing, nor at the eldest princess Xiao Mingrui, but in the direction of the east side hall.

Is there something tricky there?Shangguanjing frowned slightly, planning to inquire about Lu Zhaoyi when she had time to find Lu Zhaoyi.

Seeing Shangguan Jing twice a day, it seemed that Empress Chen was also bored.She didn't pay much attention to Shangguan Jing, but she seemed very enthusiastic towards He Lingyao and Xiao Mingrui, and kept asking how He Lingyao's wedding preparations were going.

This just allowed Shangguan Jing to relax, so that he could concentrate on thinking about what was so strange about the Dongpian Hall.

Over there...it seems to be Empress Chen's study. It is obviously impossible to "visit" such an important place.Even if Li Chongyuan lives in Weiyang Palace for a long time, she should have no chance to get close to Empress Chen's study. No matter what is in the study, Li Chongyuan will never know.

Then why did she keep staring over there?

 ---Here is the dividing line of my cousin--
  Hahaha, I didn't expect that my cousin's in-law's family was still from the army, and she could still compete with Wu Dinghou.

  In other words, Miss Princess is one of the rare girls in ancient aborigines who had a clear understanding of marriage. She didn't have any unrealistic expectations, but she wasn't so repulsive either. She accepted her fate openly and freely.

  Thanks to Yun Qingqing and Pili Mu for their daily dried fish! !
