Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 298 Marriage Trick (1)

Lin Muyun was [-]% drunk after drinking the century-old Nurhong accompanied by the first-class dishes in Dengxiange, and had a great time drinking with Liu Libang and the two in front of him.

Gao Qichang glanced at Lin Muyun worriedly, and said to Liu Libang, "Sir, you've got him drunk, how should you talk to him later?"

Liu Libang's drinking capacity is very good, and now he is [-]% drunk, but he is not as drunk as Lin Muyun. On the contrary, his eyes are brighter and brighter: "Don't worry, I have my own ideas."

After a banquet, Lin Muyun drank up the hundred-year-old Daughter Red. The only sober Gao Qichang paid for the wine with all his money, but it was still more than half. Lin Muyun, who was drunk and soft-handed, and Liu Libang, who seemed to have nothing on the surface, got into the carriage.

The coachman came and asked, "Master, where are you going?"

Gao Qichang hesitated.Liu Libang's thatched hut was in a dark place, unable to see the light, or Lin Muyun knew about it.If he brought Lin Muyun back to the Concubine's Mansion, Princess Tianlin probably wanted to hack him to death with a hatchet.The Gao family couldn't go back, and when his mother found out that he had pawned the ancestral jade pendant and paid for the wine, even if he didn't pass out, he still had to nag.

"Go to Xing's house in Nanjing Lane."

The carriage slowly headed towards his cousin Xing Dezhuang's house, and when he arrived at Nanjing Lane, the driver saw that the lane was too narrow and was unwilling to go in. Gao Qichang had no choice but to dismount from his horse and went to knock on the door.

Seeing that it was Gao Qichang, the servants rushed to welcome him in: "Master Biao, why don't you use your time to come and sit at home today?"

Gao Qichang turned around and pointed to the carriage behind him, and said: "I brought two friends here today. It's rare for friends to be happy when they meet. They're too drunk, so I can only come here to wake them up."

After hearing the news, Xing Dezhuang strode around the corridor, trotted forward and said joyfully, "Cousin, why are you free to come to my place today?" Then he saw Liu Libang with bright eyes, and said in astonishment, "Hey, sir ? You're here too? What's the matter, sir?"

Seeing that Liu Libang seemed to be drunk and fell to the ground, Gao Qichang hurriedly supported him, smiled wryly, and said, "Drunk. Zhuanger, can you tidy up the two rooms and let them rest?"

"What's the matter. Uncle Qiao, you take them to the guest room to rest, and I will take my cousin to meet my mother." Xing Dezhuang threw the drunken two people to the servants waiting by without hesitation, and pulled Gao Qichang went to the inner courtyard.

Mrs. Xing was always weak, and spent all day on the sick bed, she was very happy to see Gao Qichang, she took his hand and said to him: "Rong Guaner, Auntie knows that you are busy with military affairs, so you can't go home to visit your mother, but No matter how busy you are, you should send a message back home to keep you safe. You will stay at Yumenguan for five years. Unless you are ordered to enter the capital, you will not return to Beijing. Now you have finally come back, right at the door of your house Now, I should go back and do my filial piety anyway."

"What my aunt said is, Rong Guan'er will keep it in mind."

Mrs. Xing saw that he was ashamed, and sighed, "Don't blame my aunt for nagging, now that you are no longer that ignorant young man who is about to start a family, you should be more responsible for your family. Since you are going back to Beijing to work now, You should make a marriage arrangement early, so that your mother can embrace her grandson as soon as possible, and take care of her for the rest of her life!"

Xingdezhuang turned his eyeballs to look at this and that, seeing that Gao Qichang didn't make a sound, he opened his mouth and said: "Mother, don't worry about my cousin, as long as my cousin enters the door of Shi's house, my third aunt will be fine." Hug your grandson immediately!"

"Cousin!"

"Zhuang'er, what do you mean?" Mrs. Xing supported her body and went to look at Xing Dezhuang, seeing hesitation on his face, she couldn't help being anxious and angry, panting, "You're trying to kill me, tell me! "

Gao Qichang sighed secretly and stepped forward and said: "Auntie, don't worry, it's Rong Guan'er's fault, not Zhuang'er's business. Rong Guan'er, when he was stationed at Yumen Pass three years ago, told his family that he was married and had children. .”

Mrs. Xing didn't expect Gao Qichang to be so bold, so she forced herself to calm down and said with a trembling voice: "You mean to marry someone privately without telling the family and have a son? Rong Guaner, you have always You are not a reckless person, how did you become like this? Forget it, it is useless to say anything about you right now, now you can only bring their mother and son back to the capital, and settle them first. When the time is right, you will Go tell your mother and bring their mother and son back to the Gao family."

"Auntie, Rong Guan'er wants to ask Auntie something."

"You want me to make peace in front of your mother?" Mrs. Xing sighed helplessly, "Forget it, since I know about this, I can't pretend to be deaf and dumb and let your child fall outside. I will go there tomorrow The Gao family told your mother to tell her to send someone to pick up their mother and son to live in the capital."

Gao Qichang called out in a loud voice: "Auntie, Rong Guan'er didn't mean that." He let out a breath slowly, and said softly, "Auntie, mother knows about this, and she and the child are currently at the Shi family in the capital. Auntie Rong Guaner wants to ask my aunt, please go to my mother to persuade her, Rong Guaner wants the matchmaker to marry her, not a concubine, not a concubine, but a regular wife."

Mrs. Xing was stunned, and hurriedly asked: "Wait, what are you talking about? The Shi family, she is in the Shi family? But the daughter of Shi Jingran, Minister of the Ministry of Officials? Rong Guaner, tell me, you want to marry her ?”

"Yes, I want to marry her. In front of all the people in the capital, I will marry her in the door openly!"

"Are you crazy?" Mrs. Xing asked with concern, "You have to know, you are the eldest son and grandson of the Gao family, let alone your mother can't agree to marry such a person who comes in, even if it is an elder in your clan. , I’m afraid you will try your best to oppose it. Are you unwilling to give up even if you are an enemy of the entire family?”

Gao Qichang replied with a firm expression: "Auntie, no matter if I am against the entire family or against the entire Great Yan, I will marry her back. She is my wife, the only wife in my life."

Mrs. Xing looked at his unshakable eyes, sighed and said: "Since you insist, I won't say anything, only your mother, I will go and intercede for you, and ask her to agree with you. But, please Guan'er, whether your mother will change her mind or not, you should always go home to visit her and spend more time with her."

Gao Qichang was overjoyed, and replied with a smile: "Yes, Rong Guan'er is following my aunt's orders."

The girl outside the door came in and said, "Madam, the guest brought by Young Master Biao has woken up and wants to see Young Master Biao."

Gao Qichang resigned from Mrs. Xing, and followed the girl to the guest room, Xing Dezhuang, who had been left in Mrs. Xing's room, trotted out. "Why did you come out and not talk to your aunt?"

Xing Dezhuang was young and active, and he said aggrievedly: "Aside from going to the private school all day, I just listen to her nagging at home, and I am tired of listening to it. Cousin, why don't you take me to the military camp, I also want to try to be a general." Try it!"

"Do you think it's easy to be a general?" Gao Qichang smiled and shook his head, "I think you should listen to your aunt and honestly study at home and take the number one prize."

Xing Dezhuang pouted dissatisfiedly and said, "I'm not expected to be the number one scholar. No matter how much I read Confucius, Mencius, and Zhuangzi, I can't become a saint. Cousin, take me away. Although I am young, I have many talents. Strength. Besides, at my age, you have long since given up writing and joined the army, so don’t you have a career now?”

Gao Qichang smiled helplessly, shaking his head like a rattle: "Let's not talk about whether I am a scholar or not, let alone whether I abandoned my pen and joined the army when I joined the army. Just talk about your young master's temper, even if I take you back to the barracks Go to practice, three days of fishing and two days of drying the net, you will be dealt with by military law in less than three days. I think, it’s really forget it, you study peacefully and get a good grade in the exam , so that you can repay your aunt for your cultivation."

Xing Dezhuang had no way to refute, so he could only hang his head and follow Gao Qichang to the guest room.

Lin Muyun, who was drinking porridge on the bed, saw Gao Qichang coming in, put down the porridge bowl expressionlessly, and said in a hoarse voice: "The busy man has shown his face."

Gao Qichang looked at Lin Muyun's expression carefully, walked to the side and sat down: "Aren't you drunk? Why are you awake now?"

Lin Muyun played with his fingers and sneered: "For many years, I have been with wine every day, and I have already practiced a thousand cups without getting drunk. Let alone a jar of daughter red, just another jar, I am afraid that it will make me a little drunk .”

"Since you're not drunk, why do you pretend to be drunk?" Gao Qichang felt sorry for the jade pendant that was being held in the Dengxian Pavilion, and he gritted his teeth with hatred, "The son-in-law, who is upright and upright on weekdays, just wanted to avoid some money for drinking, so he actually thought of pretending to be drunk. It’s really chilling to recruit.”

Lin Mu Yunlang said with a smile: "I don't think it's a big deal. It turns out that I feel sorry for Yinzi. The majestic General Xuanwei, why is he so stingy? Forget it, I'm short-mouthed. Since I drank yours, I can only listen to you." It's up to you to deal with it. Tell me what you want me to do."

"How do you know that I have something to ask you?"

Lin Muyun smiled wryly, and sighed, "You wish you could never see me forever. If you didn't ask for something, why would you be willing to eat and drink with me? Tell me, what is it, as long as I can help you."

Gao Qichang was stunned for a moment, then said slowly: "I heard that Shi Jingran has written to His Majesty in the past few days, asking for an order to marry the concubine under his knees to his relatives. The emperor has no instructions on this. I want to know who the emperor wants to marry."

"You think too highly of me, don't you?" Lin Muyun sighed helplessly, "I'm just a consort of the royal family, not a worm in the emperor's stomach. How can I know what he's thinking and who he wants to marry. However, you can rest assured Yes, I heard that the Empress Dowager intends to use this matter to make a big fuss."
