son-in-law

Chapter 452
The princess has been a little irritable recently, because the princess often stays in the military academy and comes home very late every day.

Today, Su Yu didn't return until he was holding the lamp, and he sat next to the princess without hesitation, reeking of alcohol.

The princess said angrily: "Did you sell yourself to the queen mother?"

Su Yu raised his eyebrows: "How do you say that?"

When the distance got closer, the princess stretched out his hand to push: "You don't care about family affairs at all?"

Su Yu smiled: "Beloved wife, don't get annoyed, don't get angry, just speak up if you have something to say."

This remark caused the servant girl to laugh, the princess narrowed her eyes, and stretched out her hand to pinch her: "Brother will accept the concubine tomorrow, can you forget? If I don't help today, I will do it all by myself."

The princess' nails were long and hard, pinching a small piece of flesh and twisting it, it hurt like a needle prick.

Su Yu broke free and said with a straight face, "You murdered your own husband!"

After saying that, Su Yu ran away.The princess asked him what he was going to do again?Su Yu said to go to Beishi to buy some gifts.

Seeing Su Yu running in a hurry, the princess gritted her teeth, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Tomorrow is the day when the Duke accepts his side concubine, so no matter what, he must spare time to watch the ceremony.After all, this concubine is still the daughter of her friend Ouyang Jing.Both public and private, there are human feelings in it.

According to Ouyang Jing's request, the 2000 million yuan does not need to be returned to him, so Su Yu prepared an equivalent gift for Xiao Qiao as a dowry.And these dowries have to pass through the wife's house first, let Mrs. Fan choose first, and the rest will be Xiao Qiao's.

As a father who cared about his daughter, Ouyang Jing came to Qinghuafang one day earlier, sat in Su Yuwu looking through gifts, and suddenly sighed: "There is no way, the main room is the mistress of the house."

Then Ouyang Jing fell lazily on Su Yu's couch, it seemed that he didn't plan to go back to the East Palace today.

Su Yu was making a list with several "surnames" recorded on it. Ouyang Jing didn't understand what Su Yu was doing, so he didn't ask.

Listening to Ouyang Jing's words, Su Yu smiled: "I have prepared two of each gift. Although they are slightly different in appearance, they are of equal value. Let her choose, and the ones left in the end are good things."

Ouyang Jing nodded: "Brother is thoughtful. But I have already stuffed a lot of money with the eldest lady in private. I guess she will be merciful tomorrow."

Su Yu drew "+" or "-" behind those surnames, and continued writing without saying a word.

Ouyang Jing said: "The reason why Tang Zhen wants to accept the Concubine is because the Fan family ordered the youngest son. The two have been married for 12 years, and they only gave birth to a boy and a girl. Duke, what is that identity? How can one son do it. Because of this, Mrs. Fan agreed to take Xiao Qiao into the house."

Su Yu is still busy.

Ouyang Jing changed the subject: "Have you heard of it? Everyone said that the daughter was born by Tian Jing. I have carefully looked at them, and I think it is possible."

"How did you see it?"

"Feel."

"Follow the feeling?"

"I think my senses have always been accurate."

Su Yu continued to write something, while Ouyang Jing lay flat on the couch.

Tomorrow is Xiao Qiao's "wedding", but now Ouyang Jing doesn't look happy, and even feels a little lonely.

-

An Guogong accepted the concubine's ceremony.

Originally, Tang Zhen didn't plan to make a big deal, but Mrs. Fan insisted on making it more lively, and invited her sister-in-law Tang Ling'er to persuade Tang Zhen together.

It was indeed a lively day.The ceremonial officials set up according to the highest standard of accepting side concubines, and there were many various programs.The Duke's Mansion was beaming with joy.

Some people say that Mrs. Fan is indeed a lady of great family background, and she didn't embarrass Xiao Qiao in the various small steps of the side concubine worshiping the main concubine, but just symbolically scooped up two things from the dowry box, and sent the rest to Xiao Qiao's house in.Everyone said that Mrs. Guo is really graceful.

Tang Zhen's son and daughter also came out to join in the fun.Tang Zhen spends very little time disciplining his children, but it is said that this father is very strict.The son would tremble when he saw him, and never dared to be playful.From the age of five, he began to practice both civil and martial arts, and there were only seven or eight teachers of civil and martial arts.And Tang Zhen's youngest daughter is extremely beautiful, the little girl's face is very similar to Tang Zhen's, but her eyebrows and eyes are very similar to her aunt Tang Ling'er.As the saying goes, "A son is like an uncle, and a daughter is like a aunt", which is clearly reflected in their mothers.

"My sister-in-law is lucky, my uncle is lucky."

"Come on, sit by Auntie's side."

Tang Zhen's daughter's name is Tang Tu, and her nickname is Tu'er. Su Yu felt that this name was a bit too casual.But in front of people, I must say that this name is really well chosen, the name is just like the person, very cute.This is not hypocrisy, but the most basic courtesy.Tell the truth at all times, not honesty, but lack of heart.Elders who pride themselves on "justice" but can hurt a child for a long time with one sentence are very annoying.

Some people said that this girl was born quietly, Su Yu secretly observed the appearance of the two, and then looked at Mrs. Fan.It was found that the girl's face was not like any of them, but the girl's skeleton was more like Tian Jing.Mrs. Fan has a pear-shaped figure, while Tian Jing and Tang Tu are both hourglass-shaped.But this is still not enough to prove that they are biological mothers, so Su Yu didn't create any topic.Just tell Tang Linger, this child really looks like you.Tang Linger said, of course.He also said that he was very beautiful when he was a child.Su Yu asked her, what was it like when I was a child?Tang Linger said maliciously, rolling on the ground like a donkey.

After the two children participated in the necessary etiquette activities, they sat next to the sister-in-law. Tang Tu sat between Su Yu and Tang Ling'er, also in a well-behaved kneeling posture.Finding that Su Yu has a good face, the little guy asked Su Yu: "Wan Yanqing said that he likes to play with you very much. He said that you know many ways to play."

Su Yu smiled: "How did you know Wanyan Qing?"

Tang Tu said: "Now we are all attending lectures with Dr. Zhixue (Tang Nian)."

Su Yu said: "In the future, you can often go to my sister-in-law's house to play, and I will take you with me when the time comes."

Tang Tu smiled happily, but she didn't agree.This child is as precocious as Wanyanqing, but she is a little more calm than Wanyanqing.Not as naughty as the little princess Jia.Maybe it's because of the stricter discipline he received since he was a child.

The ceremony was over, and Ouyang Jing, as the woman's parent, was not qualified to sit in the "high hall".Moreover, Tang Zhen and Xiao Qiao did not pay three respects, only Xiao Qiao paid homage to the master and wife.Sitting there, Tang Zhen handed a cup of tea to Xiao Qiao who was kneeling on the ground, and Xiao Qiao walked up to Fan Shi on her knees and offered tea.Mrs. Fan took the teacup, took a sip, and it was considered as a gift.

Seeing Xiao Qiao kneeling on the ground, Su Yu felt a little uncomfortable.If this was his own daughter, Su Yu would not let her be treated as a child.At this time, Su Yu was very similar to his elder brother Tan Fangding.

I don't know how the Liang Dynasty had such a custom. On the night when the father took a concubine, the children had to leave home.The two children were taken back to the princess mansion by Tang Linger.Tang Zhen's son is ten years old, and he is a very well-behaved child.As soon as I came to the princess mansion, I found a place to read a book.When Tang Tu saw Wan Yanqing, he started playing happily until dark.When it was time to light the lamp, An Jing came over to glance at the two children, and left without saying anything.

When Su Yu returned to Xiaoxilou's bedroom, he saw Ouyang Jing wiping tears.

Su Yu smiled bitterly: "What's wrong with you?"

Ouyang Jing wiped away tears, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "I'm relieved that Xiao Qiao will marry the Duke."

"Do you have to carry out that crazy plan?"

"Jinfeng, you know me well. If this thing can't be done, I will feel that life is meaningless. Look at me now, just like a eunuch. And you know who I am best. Let me As a eunuch, I might as well let me die. Although there is medicine, it is a fatal thing, I can't use my life to play with ordinary women. If I want to play, I will play the biggest one! This is the meaning of my life!"

"Okay, you've already told me three times." Su Yu gave up on persuasion, but said: "I'm very pessimistic about your future. Let me tell you bluntly, I won't help you. You told me last night If you want to train troops at Luqiao Station, I think you should give up your mind."

"I didn't ask you to help me."

"Then who do you want to ask for help? Tang Zhen?"

"It's not Tang Zhen, but the queen mother! If the queen mother asks me to train soldiers there, what will you do?"

"If the queen mother came to me, I would also bluntly reject the queen mother. Because it is very dangerous for her to assassinate the five generals. Once she messes up, I will be implicated. At that time, Tang Zhen will not be able to protect me."

"Then you are not afraid that the queen mother will no longer need you?"

"She doesn't need me, so I'm going to be a businessman. And I don't even want to work under her for too long. When I leave Jingtong, with the resources of the Tang family, as long as I have a little capital, I can develop .I will be a powerful businessman, take good care of..."

Ouyang Jing suddenly interrupted Su Yu: "But I don't think the Queen Mother will let you go easily, nor will Tang Zhen let you leave Jingtong easily."

Su Yu didn't say a word, and lightly twisted his fingers.

Ouyang Jing put his hands behind his back and said, "Because it's very difficult to find someone like you. Although you are also very tempered, and you are always a pick on the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother still can't do without you. I think she must love you very much now." Hate. And you are in that position, Tang Zhen can also benefit. Tang Zhen can get information about the Xuanjia Army through you, which is very important for warlords. Even if Tang Zhen doesn’t want to engage in the Xuanjia Army, he always has to be on guard Point, right? In addition, the queen mother now needs to cooperate with the powerful, in order to fight against the five generals, and even to save her life, and Tang Zhen is also willing to cooperate with her. I think you will worry more about the future than me. My goal is very single, and You must be busier than now."

Ouyang Jing pointed to the documents on Su Yu's desk: "Don't think that I can't understand them if they are drawn with some symbols. I know you too well. You must be helping the queen mother to build an army. I just don't know what you want to do. Just do it."

Su Yu spread his hands: "But I still won't help you."

Ouyang Jing suddenly froze, sitting on the couch, holding his head in his hands: "It seems that this road won't work."

Su Yu smiled.

Ouyang Jing sighed: "Actually, the Queen Mother didn't agree to me either. I think she deliberately didn't express her opinion. Let me do it myself, and contact her when I'm done."

Su Yu felt that Ouyang Jing had given up the idea of ​​assassinating Zhao Ting, so he said while the iron was hot: "You have so many crazy ideas, you can try other ones."

Ouyang Jing raised his head: "But I don't know the queen mother as well as you, so can you give me a trick?"

Su Yu thought for a while: "Have you heard of Lu Buwei?"

Ouyang Jing: "What's wrong?"

"Business first, then appointment." Su Yu paused for a moment, "What the Empress Dowager lacks most now is money."

When Ouyang Jing saves enough money to impress the Queen Mother, it will be a year of the monkey.But as time passed, perhaps Ouyang Jing changed his mind and no longer considered being a queen mother.So Su Yu thought it was a good move.It didn't dispel Ouyang Jing's enthusiasm, but it also allowed him to divert his attention from that matter.

After a long test, Ouyang Jing suddenly jumped up: "Okay! Being a businessman is my old profession. Watch me do some big deals!"

Su Yu smiled.

Ouyang Jing clenched his fists, the veins on his forehead bulged, and growled in a low voice: "I must sleep with the Queen Mother!"

Su Yu stopped laughing again.
