boudoir

Chapter 195 Future worries
Logically speaking, Qi Yunhao was already 21 years old, so it was reasonable to add two people to the room, but that had nothing to do with Liuli.Now that she wants to marry him, she has to worry about these issues.If Tongfang had an heir first, the sons and daughters born by Liuli would not be able to grow up as eldest daughters. Judging from the unreliable situation of Liuli's own natal family, this would have lost the opportunity.What's more, these two girls were rewarded by Prince Qing, if Liuli did something to them then, wouldn't it be like sweeping Prince Qing's face?

"The Qi family is also a veteran of several generations. Although it was not reused before, it is also a famous family in Beijing. These things should always be taken seriously."

Huanhua got engaged and began to face these problems. She and Lin Weiran were considered to have similar talents and looks. Although the Lin family was of a lower rank, it was a noble family who had passed the examination of merit and was quite respected by others.But no matter how much he is respected, he can't avoid troubles in the room. Regarding this matter, Huanhua is also worried that Lin Weiran will take a concubine in the future, so these things have also been considered.

Aunt Su sighed: "It stands to reason that this is not bad, but my uncle is already twenty-one, if he is really pregnant, we really can't say anything about him." As Liuli's adoptive mother, now she also started to follow He Cunli occasionally. Gradually walking into the social circle of close relatives, I also have some understanding of some unwritten rules in the aristocratic circle. "Now it's time to see what uncle thinks."

Liuli closed the book and thought for a while, "Is Prince Qing on good terms with the general?"

Aunt Su said: "I can't say whether it's good or not. It's rare for outsiders to see the two of them going in and out together, but King Qing would send things to my aunt's house from time to time. Oh, of course, so does the prince. The Northern Palace seems to have a good relationship with the second child."

The second child refers to Qi Yunjing. After Liuli recovered from her illness, she took care of this matter. The princess would not write to Yuhua for no reason. At first, she thought it was probably because she wanted to win over the second wife of the Qi family. Judging from the imperial decree, the date of the holy decree was exactly in October of that year, but Qi Yunhao kept it away and never sent it out.Even if few people knew about it afterwards, when the crown princess wrote the letter to Yuhua, she must have known about it.Well, knowing that Liuli was married to Qi Yunhao, she still insisted on pushing Liuli into the abyss, which should be more than just winning over the second wife of Qi's family.

If Qi Yunhao arrives a little late, or even doesn't know about it, and let Liuli become Yuhua's dowry maid, at that time, as the general of Zhen Guo, he will hold the imperial decree of marriage, I'm afraid he won't be ashamed to ask The sister-in-law who has entered the door wants a maid to marry, right?Perhaps what the prince and the others didn't expect was that in the end, it was Qi Yunhao himself who reversed all this, so their vain attempt to prevent Qi Yunhao from marrying Liuli failed.But whether they prevented Qi Yunhao from marrying her for the purpose of promising their own person to Qi Yunhao, or for other purposes, Liu Li didn't know for the time being.

Of course, Liuli also doubted Qi Yunhao's motives for holding back the imperial decree. At that time, when the rumors about her marriage with Du Rui were raging outside, he, as the party who proposed to get married, was able to bear it.There is also that King Qing who sent two maids to Qi Yunhao at this time, and Qi Yunhao still accepted it. This means that King Qing also has the same thoughts as the prince. Did Yun Hao deliberately do it for her to let her know that she is not as important as others think in his heart?
Thinking of this, Liuli couldn't help laughing.If Qi Yunhao deliberately embarrassed her, then his efforts were wasted, she never felt how important she was to him!She knew that if there was no purpose, Qi Yunhao would never marry her.

"So, the general did not care about Liuli's face when he did this." Huanhua frowned and said, "The same is true for Prince Qing. If you don't want to send anything, you have to give it to a maid. Liuli was originally a concubine. And because she was almost married to the Marquis of Huaining, now there are rumors that are not good for Liuli, regardless of whether the two maids have children, although it is a fact that Liuli married as the general's wife, her prestige has been swept away before entering the house , is also a fact."

Aunt Su sighed, "The arms can't twist the thighs, we don't have the ability to reason with the Dingbei Palace, it's the one given by King Qing."

Listening to what they said, Liuli stood beside the smoker cage to warm her hands, and said for a long time: "We can't send back the people King Qing gave us, and we can always find a way to recover the lost reputation."

Huanhua and Aunt Su raised their heads when they heard something in her words.

Liuli rubbed her hands and looked at the snowflakes outside the window, and said: "A few days ago, the little concubine Qi sent a post saying that it was the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Muyang County Lord and Ji, and invited many noble ladies to join in the fun? Let's go too .”

Since the imperial decree of finger marriage came down, she has received countless posts this year, but she has never seen the slightest interest in her. When Aunt Su and Huanhua heard about it, their faces were full of surprise.But after only a while, Aunt Su figured it out and stood up, nodded and said: "That's right. The more you live in seclusion, the easier it is for people to manipulate rumors about you. Take this opportunity to go out and walk around, by the way You can also make some contacts, which is indeed beneficial and harmless."

Whose reputation is not passed on by people?Since Liuli could get spit flying all over without leaving home, she simply went out, and she would have a solid evidence to spread the word in the future.Besides, as the wife of General Zhen Guo, it's not enough to just guard the deep boudoir, and the social relations between the ladies of each mansion also have to be taken care of.Could she still be a young mistress relying on He Fu in the future?Her maiden name is Xu, not He.

Huanhua then figured it out very well, but she still didn't understand: "It's still half a month before the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. Didn't the wife of Mr. Zhan Shizuo, the young master of Zhan Shifu, also send a post to invite you to stay for a few days?" Do you want to go to the mansion to appreciate the plum blossoms? Why not go to Zhan Shi's mansion first?"

Aunt Su smiled and said: "There is something strange about it, you don't take care of mundane affairs on weekdays, so you can't think of it. This young Zhan Shi is just a fourth-rank official, Liuli first appeared in the circle of official wives and noble ladies, Since you want to form connections and build a reputation, you naturally have to choose your identity. Is there anything more suitable than going to Princess Chen Jiang's banquet right now?"

The eldest son of King Yu's Mansion had been officially awarded the title of King Chen Jiang the year before last, and concubine Qi had also officially become a princess of the county. In terms of rank, King Chen Jiang was equal to King Dingbei. General, in terms of seniority, he is on the same level as the head of Muyang County, and Liuli, as Qi Yunhao's wife-to-be, will be granted a title after passing the door. In theory, she will naturally be on an equal level with Lu Muyang. Just perform the senior ceremony.

In this way, it will be much easier to act and deal with it.It was the first time for the married wife of General Zhen Guo to go out to a banquet. Although it was not an official visit, the party who accepted the banquet inevitably had some ideas.If you go to Shao Zhan's mansion, the other party's grade is too low, and you go there suddenly, it will not only appear to be not enough airs, but also easy to make people feel ostentatious.Furthermore, the two days are not far apart, so if you go to Shao Zhan's mansion and then to Prince Yu's mansion, it seems that you don't respect Prince Yu's mansion enough.

Huanhua finally understood the deep meaning in it, and couldn't help admiring Liuli, "You can think so clearly, it's really worthwhile for Mr. to teach you for so many years."
Aunt Su said: "You are also very good, everyone's fate is different, you have your own blessing, don't think about it."

As a concubine, Liuli has experienced more ups and downs than her.Huanhua also understood, so he nodded deeply to express his understanding.

Liuli said: "On the thirteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, you accompany me to Prince Yu's Mansion."

It's the first time to go to Yu Wang's mansion for a banquet, so naturally it's not easy to go alone, Liuli really can't think of anyone else who can go with her.I am a junior, and I never accepted the invitation to bring my elders as a companion to Li'er, Liang and the others don't have to think about it, and Liuli won't invite her either.Aunt Su's status is not enough, among the grandmothers, the Xie family and the Ruan family have never had any contact with each other, and because she is the eldest, Liuli hates her from the bottom of her heart.Although Luo Mingzhu is close, she is pregnant again, Nie Shi and He Tingbang are having a tight baby, and it is not easy to work.Among the girls, Zhenhua Suhua is a concubine, and even if she took her with good intentions, she would inevitably be looked down upon by some people, and she would be sulky when she turned around, but instead she did something bad with good intentions. In cookbooks, it's even more flawless.

Only Huanhua is the most suitable.Although her character is a little purer and she is still not good at scheming in the palace, she is one of the most reassuring people in Liuli's palace after all, and she also has a real sisterhood.Liuli knows who is sincerely good to herself, in the future Lin Weiran will also have to pass the examination to become an official, and Huanhua is no longer familiar with these things, for the sake of the future, Liuli will also let her learn.

Rui'er sent someone to send a reply note promising to go to the banquet, and she arrived at Laba.Liuli was trying on the new clothes for the banquet, and when she saw the laurel and begonias on the table with Laba Festival snacks, wine and dishes, she remembered that she went to the Buddhist hall to look for Mrs Yu last year for the imperial court's grain collection.When Liu Li was interrupted by what happened later, she left the matter behind, and only later did she hear Rui'er mention that because He Dingli suddenly became the in-laws of King Dingbei, this matter was dismissed as a trivial matter, and it was not found out. If there is any real evidence, the Holy Majesty will pursue the matter again.

Let the beast down!But there is no rush.

As for Mrs. Yu, the root cause of the disease has still fallen.I don't know how He Yuhua's life has been since he passed the family, but I only know that she is not pregnant yet, and every time she comes back to the mansion, she still wants to fish out the Yu family, but now that the Qi family's prestige is increasing day by day, Liuli is now in the mansion and no one can touch her This wish of hers is getting closer and closer to wishful thinking.

When Liuli came to the Qifu, she was the eldest grandma. Even though she has not yet inherited the clan, this is enough for He Yuhua to be depressed.Who would have thought that she would turn herself into her sister-in-law after fighting back and forth?
Seeing that she was dressed, Rui'er looked her back, left, and right, and felt that the lower waist was still a little imperfect, so she made a mark on it with a needle and thread.

"The girl is still thinner than before. There is still more than a year left, so I have to quickly raise her body back. After passing the door, I will give the general an eldest son early, and add a few young generals and sisters in two years. It will be fine." .”

Rui'er blushed, pursed her lips and smiled.She sincerely hopes that Liuli will get better. No matter what, she is now the wife of the quasi general. As long as she passes through the door and gives birth to an heir, she prays that Yunhao will have a concubine or not, and her daughter will have sons and daughters. She will have something to look forward to in this life up.After seeing so much of these things in the various houses in the mansion, as a woman, what hope can I have for a man's loyalty?
