Buddhist palace maids want to be rich

Chapter 101 The Concubine
"Third Master, that matchmaker Xu who went to Miss Jiang's place to say goodbye has come to answer. Look, do you want to hear it for yourself?"

Fushun walked into the study, walked around the screen to the inner room, and first saluted.Then he asked in a low voice to Liu Wenli who was practicing calligraphy at the desk.

This time, the third master seemed to attach great importance to this little maid.Not only did he directly let the matchmaker go to talk about marriage, he gave a good concubine the title, but also asked the matchmaker to bring it in when he was talking back and forth, saying that he wanted to know the reaction of the little maid.

"Well, let her come in and answer." Liu Wenli said slowly in a gentle voice.

Fushun hurried to the door and led Matchmaker Xu in.

Matchmaker Xu lowered her head and bowed her body. After entering the study, she hurriedly saluted Liu Wenli through the screen.After he said excuse me, he stood up straight.

"What did Miss Jiang say?" Liu Wenli asked indifferently while still practicing calligraphy.

A little maid who left the palace, before entering the palace, she was just a country girl, and in the palace she was nothing more than a low-level rough envoy. To receive such a promotion, she must be in a state of trepidation, right?

Matchmaker Xu twitched her mouth, afraid that what she said next would make Liu Wenli angry.However, there is no way.Before going, Fushun said that Mr. Liu would wait to see her in person, so that he could hear the girl's reply.

At that time, she only felt that the girl must agree.When the time comes to announce the good news, Mr. Liu will be so happy, maybe how he will reward her.Who knew, this girl actually rejected her.

She was really afraid that once this nobleman got angry, he would turn his anger on her again.

"Miss Jiang said she wasn't good enough for Mr. Liu, so she declined." Matchmaker Xu replied in a low voice.

Liu Wenli stopped holding the pen, and a drop of ink dripped down the pen tip onto the paper.A good word was blurred by a big blob of ink.

Liu Wenli looked at Fushun who was standing beside the table expressionlessly.Fushun hurriedly walked forward with breathless concentration, rolled up the scrap of paper, and threw it in the wastebasket.Then he quickly took a new piece of rice paper and put it on the desk. After pressing it with a paperweight, he stepped back and continued to stand beside the desk, not daring to breathe.

But Liu Wenli put down his pen, stood up slowly, walked to the grand teacher's chair outside and sat down.

He looked at Matchmaker Xu standing at the bottom, as if he wanted to listen carefully to what she said.

"Oh? Did you refuse?" Liu Wenli groaned while beating his hand with a fan.

"Yes." Matchmaker Xu lowered her head and replied in a low voice.

"If you don't move, it means you don't have enough weight."Liu Wenli lowered his eyes and thought carefully.

Both Fushun and Matchmaker Xu waited quietly for Liu Wenli's instructions.I don't know how Liu Sanye will teach this ignorant girl a lesson?
After waiting for a while, Liu Wenli's voice sounded in the quiet study.

"Then you go and tell her that I sincerely propose to her. I can take her as a concubine."

As soon as this remark came out, not only Xu Matchmaker was greatly shocked, but even Fushun raised his head in surprise.

He has been with Mr. Liu for several years.Naturally, he understood that what Liu Sanye did was justified.However, this time, a commoner woman must be directly accepted as a noble concubine—even if that commoner woman was once a maid in the empress's palace, she is not worthy.

So, he couldn't help but said: "Third Master, this girl is a commoner woman, she is not worthy to be your concubine. At that time, Third Mistress may not be able to agree."

"I have my own reasons. There is no need to say too much." Liu Wenli looked at this well-trained confidant, but still gave him face, and said to him in a gentle voice.

Fu Shun shut up.

As a confidant, he still knows when to say it and when not to say it.

After Liu Wenli finished speaking, he didn't intend to explain anything to a private media, so he raised his hand to see off the guests.

Fushun hurriedly motioned for Matchmaker Xu to salute and leave.Then he took Matchmaker Xu out of the back corner door.

After going out, Fushun checked that there was no one around, and then handed her a purse, "Here, you can go for another trip. Take this and drink some tea."

Matchmaker Xu nodded with a smile, took the purse, thanked her and left.

Halfway on the way, she opened her purse and took a look, darling, it really is from a noble family, and this is actually two taels of silver.

So, matchmaker Xu was so happy that she went to Jiang Zhixia's house again.

Besides, after sending away Matchmaker Xu, Jiang Zhixia, who felt that the matter had been settled, was leisurely looking at a storybook, started to write the storybook by himself, and then put it in the shop to sell the idea-what is this writing about? ?

Even if a lady escapes marriage, she still wants to marry a poor scholar?That beautiful goblin has worked so hard to become an adult, but she must fall in love with a down-and-out scholar, and she has to die and live for that scholar, and even become a concubine in the end?

This is written by sour scholars, right?

While thinking about this, Xiaoman reported that the matchmaker Xu had come again.

This time, Jiang Zhixia was really surprised.

When they arrived at the front yard and met Matchmaker Xu, they were shocked when they learned that Liu Wenli had actually allowed her to be a noble concubine, and couldn't even close their mouths.

What's happening here?
Ordinary officials seldom accept people as concubines, let alone honorable ones.

A wife is a wife, and a concubine is a concubine. Good concubines are rare, let alone noble concubines.

She is a commoner woman, how can she let someone from a noble mansion accept her as a noble concubine?Even if that person is a concubine in the Xungui Mansion, she is not a commoner like her who can be a noble concubine, right?
"It seems that Liu Sanye really likes the girl very much. This noble concubine is not easy to get." Xu Matchmaker said with a smile.

Can I get the money from the media this time?If you pay so much for running errands, can you get less money for the media?
"I'm going to wonder if the person Xu Matchmaker says she's close to is someone from Cheng Enhou's mansion?"

Jiang Zhixia really wanted to wonder if she had been cheated into a marriage?

What kind of family status is Cheng Enhou's Mansion?
Cheng'enhou Mansions in all dynasties are not the same.

In some dynasties, the Chengenhou Mansion was only a title granted to the queen's mother's family.Without real power, most of the time, they will not participate in government affairs, but only know how to respond to the occasion.

However, although the title of the Marquis of Cheng'en in this dynasty also 'falls down from generation to generation, it ends in three generations'.However, it also depends on Cheng Enhou's ability.If you are a talented person, you will naturally go to court to discuss matters.

Especially the current Marquis Cheng En, who is currently the head of the Ministry of Officials, is the post of Shangshu, which is a real position with real power.He was originally born in the imperial examination. After he was selected as a Jinshi, he worked hard from the official department and climbed up step by step by ability.

Not to mention, the second and third masters of Chengenhou's mansion are both officials of the court.

Therefore, the status of Chengenhou Mansion in the entire Dali Dynasty is still very strong.Especially, after the Empress Empress gave birth to the first prince, her status went up to a higher level.

This Third Master Liu, of course, she also listened to the discussions of other court ladies in the empress's palace.

He is the eldest son of the third master of Cheng Enhou's mansion, and it is said that his biological mother was the third master's personal maid since childhood.Later, he naturally became the third master's housekeeper.

The general rule is that when the main wife has a son, she will give the concubine, servant, and housekeeper soup to avoid the son.However, from the word 'chang' of the eldest son of the concubine, we can know how favored that Tongfang was back then.

Therefore, a concubine's eldest son disregarded the rules and wanted to accept her as a noble concubine. She had a very reasonable suspicion that someone was cheating on the marriage?
