White Moonlight of Powerful Officials at large

Chapter 79 Uncontrollable throbbing

"Wang You" was 15 years old when he moved to Beijing.

There are many high-ranking officials and dignitaries in Beijing, and the business is flourishing. Within two years, Wang Fu's business has improved.

With extra money and a wife in poor health, Wang Fu quickly added a maid to the house.

For some decent families, there are several servant girls in the house.What's more, when Mrs. Wang was on the couch in front of the bed, Wang Fu was always absent, and when she really couldn't get up, it was much more convenient to have two maids by her side.

The two maidservants were all at Mrs. Wang's side, and Pei You didn't want any of them.

But it was probably because he was too gentle on weekdays. After one climbed into the bed and was kicked out, the second one took off his clothes and climbed into the bed.

When he opened his eyes in a daze, there was a strange woman beside him holding hands and "begging the son to hang the curtain", which made Pei You want to frown when he saw a woman who looked at him more.

So much so that the words "feelings between men and women" are two out of twenty, and Pei You didn't even want to try it.

He is also very sure that he doesn't like, or even hates, wild flowers like Wen Ning who, despite his wishes, have clearly rejected them many times and still want to rush at them to annoy them.

But he couldn't deny that he was a little happy when he heard Gu Fei's "Miss Wen".

So he opened the window immediately.

He hadn't seen her for nearly two months. When he first saw her speaking softly and smiling at the child, a strange feeling spread from the bottom of his heart, climbing, wrapping, and filling like a vine.

But at the moment when she saw the man beside her, a spike appeared suddenly, stung him to close the window immediately.

It was Wen Ning again.

Every time I meet her, something uncontrollable happens.

It was nothing more than trying to save her inexplicably a few times before, and he did those things unconsciously.

But just now he was sober.

He was very clearly aware of the strangeness in his heart the moment he saw her.

Lingering, lingering, lingering.

It was like an unstoppable throbbing.

Simply ridiculous!
Pei You knocked over the tea set on the table with a wave of his hand.

Wang Qinsheng and Gu Fei were driving outside. Chang'an Avenue was bustling, and the speed of the carriage was slow, so they could clearly hear the commotion inside.

Wang Qinsheng stared at Gu Fei.

It's over, it's over, he's been with the young master for so many years, his young master has always shown his emotions and anger, and it's rare to frown, why did he get angry so obviously?
Gu Fei also looked surprised, and said in a low voice: "What happened just now?"

Wang Qinsheng scratched his head: "It's nothing..."

"Ask the prince if he really returned home." Gu Fei poked him with his elbow.

It stands to reason that the first thing to do when returning to Beijing should be to go to the palace to report on your duties, but just now the young master's order was to "return to the mansion".

Wang Qinsheng: "No! Young Master is angry, I want to ask you!"

Gu Fei: "You ask, the young master has always treated you with a pleasant face."

Wang Qinsheng: "No!"

Seeing that they were about to reach the crossroads, the palace was to the left, and the Duke's Mansion was to the right, Gu Fei glanced at Wang Qinsheng, and asked back, "Your Majesty, are you going back to the Duke's Mansion?"

After a long while, Pei You's voice came from inside, which sounded the same as usual: "Enter the palace."

Gu Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Qinsheng scratched his head again, which was so unusual.

His son was so angry that he couldn't choose what to say just now...
-
Pei You went to the south of the Yangtze River this time, and was awarded the title of "Imperial Envoy" by the order of Emperor Jiahe.

Of course, when you return to Beijing, you can't go back to the Duke's mansion first, but go directly to the palace to face the saint and report to His Majesty.

In the Hall of Qinzheng, Emperor Jiahe seemed to have waited for Pei You for a long time, and when he saw him coming in, he stretched his eyebrows and put down the vermilion pen in his hand.

After listening to Pei You's job report, he looked at him with slightly old-fashioned eyes: "Why did you use Jiang Ning as a breakthrough? Why did you start with the school?"

Pei You was tall and tall, standing on the lower side and said: "Xu Zhiwang, the magistrate of Jiangning Prefecture, is the shortest official among the officials of the eight Jiangnan prefectures, and the only official who is not a native of Jiangnan. Compared with the other officials, the relationship is not close enough, and the It is not as impenetrable as it looks, therefore, Jiangning Mansion is the best breakthrough."

"Starting from the school, it is only because of this that I really want to do my best."

Emperor Jiahe nodded slowly, the burning light in his eyes turned warm: "You have been out of Beijing for more than a month, do you feel tired?"

Emperor Jiahe undoubtedly favored Pei You.Everyone knows that Emperor Jiahe and Princess Ronghua are deeply in love with each other, and they love their house as much as they love each other. They also love this nephew who has been lost for many years.

Pei You is very clear, and has felt his clear preference for her more than once.

But in the Golden Luan Hall, the emperor with a long and majestic nod, suddenly lowered his brows and eyes softly at him, and asked such a homely sentence, which still made him stunned for a moment.

"Give me a seat." Emperor Jiahe raised his voice.

Immediately, two eunuchs moved a grand master's chair and placed it behind Pei You.

Pei You glanced lightly, and changed her address in due course: "Thank you uncle."

Emperor Jiahe looked up and laughed loudly: "Forgive me for being so smart and intelligent, why don't I like it?"

"It's a blessing to make my uncle happy."

Emperor Jiahe smiled all over his face, and his eyes glowed brightly again: "One day I can change my name to Father Emperor, I will be really happy."

Pei You was holding on to the handle to sit down, but when she heard this, her body froze slightly, but she finally didn't sit down, stood up and took two steps forward, and made a big salute.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love! But..."

Emperor Jiahe waved his hand: "Okay, okay, get up. Your adoptive parents have arranged a marriage for you. Now that your adoptive parents have passed away, it is a last wish. You have to follow it? Showa and I have told you."

Pei You was still kneeling on the ground, did not get up, but looked up at Emperor Jiahe.

He didn't get angry, he still had a pleasant face, and said: "Nursing kindness is greater than giving birth to kindness. I am very pleased that you can have such filial piety. But there is another sentence, there are three unfilial piety, and the greatest thing is to have no descendants. You have been looking for that woman for more than a year. There is no news so far, if you still can’t find it, will you die alone?”

Pei You moved his lips to say something, Emperor Jiahe waved his hand: "Get up and answer."

Pei You stood up, and Emperor Jiahe said again: "I gave you a seat."

The palace people who served personally knew very well that this obvious favoritism was a treatment that few princes had never had before, so they couldn't help but raise their eyes to look at Pei You.

Pei You sat down calmly, but before he could speak, Emperor Jiahe said again: "Excuse me, you are talented and ambitious, I know what you are worried about, but rules are made by people, and laws are written by people. The world belongs to me, and what the law should be depends on what I think."

"So, do you understand?"

As soon as Emperor Jiahe finished speaking, there was a gasp in the Hall of Qinzheng.

In order to avoid the monopoly of foreign relatives, the son-in-law is not allowed to be an official, and there is a rule at the beginning of the dynasty. What does your majesty mean, to abolish this regulation for the son?

"Your Majesty is so loving, I am ashamed to be a humble minister! However..." Pei You stood up again.

Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Jiahe interrupted again: "I decide whether you deserve it or not!"

His gray eyebrows were raised slightly, his eyes were still benevolent, but his tone was undeniable, "So it's settled, I'll give you a month, and if you haven't found that fiancée after a month, I'll issue an order, I will marry Showa for you."
-
Wen Ning would run into Pei You today, which was beyond Wen Ning's expectations.

In her impression, the imperial envoy's return to Beijing should be grand and powerful, not to mention that she heard that Pei You was in the south of the Yangtze River this time, and came back with a criminal minister.

But she didn't take it to heart.

These days, not only is she choosing a son-in-law, but the marriage between the Duke's Mansion and Princess Zhaohe is also raging.

It's just because Princess Zhaohe has frequently been in and out of the Duke's mansion recently, and Princess Ronghua has also gone out with Princess Zhaohe several times, as if she just waited for the son to come back, and this intimate marriage will be made public.

After having dinner at Yuntinglou, Yan Li politely sent Wen Ning and Wen Lan back to Wen's residence.

This is the second time Wen Ning and Yan Li have met, and they brought the young master of the Yan family with them.

After returning home, the family inevitably discussed Wen Ning's marriage.

"I have known Yan Li for two years, and he is a reliable businessman." Wen Lan said, "Although he was born as a businessman, he is not as good as a literati when he comes from a storyteller, but he is polite and courteous in his dealings with others, and he is smooth and sophisticated in his dealings. ..."

He somewhat disliked Yan Li's age, which was ten years older than Wen Ning.

But it's not bad to be older and perhaps be more considerate.

So he didn't say any more, and instead asked Wen Ning, "What do you think, sister?"

Wen Ning rested her chin on one hand, and played with the teacup in her other hand: "It's not bad...that kid is really cute."

Wen Qi pinched the tip of her nose: "What do you mean it's okay? You still want to be perfunctory about life-long events?"

Wen Ning pouted.

It's really not that she deliberately perfunctory, she is married for the third time, and the person she married is not the girl Huaichun's favorite person, so naturally...

So neither salty nor bland.

"I'm worried that he is an authentic Suzhou native. If one day he doesn't want to do business in the capital and wants to return to Suzhou, wouldn't Ah Ning follow him away? If he is bullied by then..."

"It's okay." Wen Ning blurted out, realizing what her next sentence was, she immediately shut up.

"So it seems that my sister is quite satisfied?" Wen Lan asked tentatively.

Wen Ning thought about it and nodded.

"Brother, this person is very suitable for me in all aspects. My brother has known him for many years and knows him quite well. If there is anything wrong with him, I am sure that my brother will not lead me to meet him. Let him find someone On the days when Dad is here, come to propose marriage."

Wen Lan and Wen Qi both paused, and then looked at each other.

I thought that this younger sister has high vision and is clever and ghostly, and the marriage will be extremely difficult to finalize, so why don't you just nod?
"A Ning, are you sure?" Wen Qi asked.

Wen Ning nodded again.

"Big Brother, Second Brother, don't worry, Ah Ning knows what she wants."

It's just too clear what you want.

After the sentence "it doesn't matter" just now, there is what I want to say, "We will make peace at that time."

Although it is not possible to fully understand a person in just two faces, even if Wen Lan has known him for two years, she may not really understand him thoroughly.

But who would she marry?
In the previous life, marrying such a knowledgeable person as Shen Jin would be like that.

This time she has minimized the risk in the initial screening.

Make up if things go wrong.

I will never suffer from the useless attitude of my previous life.
-
When Wen Ning came out of the east chamber, the moon was already high in the night sky.

On an early summer night, the air was cool and refreshing, and after a gust of wind, she couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Five days later, Yan Li came to propose marriage.

Probably soon, the marriage between Pei You and Princess Zhaohe will be announced to the world.

A year ago, she tossed and turned and racked her brains, wasn't it just for this result?
He married another, she married another.

In this lifetime, they will not have any entanglements again.

"Girl, be careful of catching a cold." Linglan put on a light cape for her.

Wen Ning fastened the belt on her own, and stepped forward resolutely.
