Reborn to marry ex-husband's nemesis

Chapter 298

If Chu Zhi really married the sixth prince, then he would plan for the sixth prince and his own future, so how could he care about the prince?

Besides, Chu Zhi knew the secrets of so many princes, therefore, Concubine Xian must prevent Chu Zhi from marrying the sixth prince.

It's just that the holy will is unpredictable, and His Majesty is becoming more and more elusive now. What if he suddenly decrees a marriage one day on a whim?
Therefore, Concubine Xian Gui asked Chu Zhi to make early plans.

It is said that there are no loopholes in Concubine Xian's words, Chu Zhi instinctively feels that this is not the case.

It's not that she doesn't trust Concubine Xian, but that she doesn't trust Emperor Xiao.

After returning from the palace, Chu Zhi quietly asked the imperial doctor Wu whether there was a princess who died in Huang Xiao.

Imperial Physician Wu didn't understand why Chu Zhi did this all of a sudden, but he still told her that there were several princesses who died young, but His Majesty never kept it in mind. After all, there were too many princes and princesses who had accidents in the palace. His Majesty only cares about government affairs, but the saddest time was when Princess Ming An, who was with Empress Ren De, heard that Princess Ming An had grown up to ten years old, but suffered from smallpox and died young.

Imperial Physician Wu also mentioned that this Princess Ming An looks gentle and kind, but in fact she is cold and tight, never acting like a baby, but Her Majesty just likes it.

Chu Zhi frowned lightly, could it be that Emperor Xiao regarded her as Princess Ming An?

And her title is Fu'an, and there is also an in it.

But for some reason, Chu Zhi always felt that something was wrong.

But they said that in less than a month it would be the birthdays of Chu Zhi and Chu Xi. One is the county head proclaimed by His Majesty, and the other is about to marry into the fourth prince's mansion as a concubine. The elders in the mansion have already practiced and started to do it early.

On this day, the old lady asked Chu Zhi and Chu Xi to go to the Rongning Hall together, and said: "Since ancient times, women and hairpins are a great gift, and there must be a praiser. I don't know if you have any ideas?"

The praisers are close friends or sisters of women, and many families are proud of inviting such respectable praisers.

Chu Xi smiled softly: "Your Highness said earlier that you can call the Seventh Princess, but the granddaughter thinks that the Seventh Princess is valuable and is afraid of neglecting the nobleman, but your Highness said that the granddaughter and the Seventh Princess are on good terms. The idea is agreed, and I hope grandma will not be surprised."

Surprise flashed across the old lady's eyes, and then she was all happy: "The Seventh Princess actually agreed to be your admirer? Well, well! This is a good thing!"

It is such an honor for Chu Xi to let the princess attend their Chu Manor's wedding ceremony!
"In this way, many of the things prepared earlier are not suitable for the status. The Seventh Princess has a valuable status and must be re-arranged. Don't offend the nobleman."

After the old lady said that, she asked someone to replace it quickly, but Chu Zhi was not forgotten.

Said: "Do you have a candidate for your supporter?"

"Wan'er said earlier that she happened to be free."

Meng Wan's grandfather is the elder of the Sanchao and the granddaughter of the Grand Tutor. Even though the Meng family has left the capital for more than [-] years and has no foundation in the court, they still have the name of their ancestors. At home, Meng Wan is the best candidate for the crown princess, but she is also prominent.

The old lady smiled happily: "Since that's the case, then I, an old woman, don't worry about it. The candidate for the guest of honor has been confirmed. She is my sister, your aunt, and she will come to the capital from Jinling in half a month. My son is a gifted person, now that he has been promoted to a third-rank official, it is most suitable for her to be the official guest at that time."

The old lady arranged this way, and the two naturally nodded in agreement.

After coming out of Rongning Hall, Chu Xi chuckled lightly: "The fifth sister is a person of great fortune now. I heard that the imperial concubine and empress announced you into the palace two days ago and had lunch with your majesty. My sister would like to congratulate you." sister."

Chu Zhi looked at her indifferently.

Chu Xi didn't care either, Chu Zhi always treated her like this.

"It's just that sister, you have to be careful. The meals of the nobles are not so delicious."

Chu Zhi sneered: "I don't know if it's good or not, I only know that some people just want to eat it but don't have the chance."

After Chu Zhi said that, he left leisurely, even if Chu Xi was so forbearing, she jumped angrily at Chu Zhi's words.

Couldn't help but said angrily: "What! What is there to show off? Do you think His Majesty invited her just for dinner? It wasn't for the sixth prince's marriage. Speaking of which, the sixth prince's biological mother was originally just a lowly foot-washing maid. , she grew up in a farmhouse and couldn't get on the stage, if the two really got married, they would be a good match!"

Shuqi beside him quickly lowered his head, not daring to speak.

Sixth Miss is moody, seemingly weak, but her methods are extremely ruthless, torturing someone can kill half of your life.

After cursing for a while, Chu Xi became angry when she saw the book and chess stick beside her: "It's like a piece of wood, what use do I need you for!"

Shuqi remained silent.

The more Chu Xi looked at it, the more chilling she felt: "Hurry up and get out! What are you still doing here? Do you want to be a rock?"

Dong'er from this side said: "Girl, you said Miss Six is ​​really interesting, you are clearly jealous and you still don't admit it, and I want to stab you a few times at a corner, and you can't get any good, why bother!"

"She has always been like this. How about the matter I asked you to investigate?"

"Returning to the girl, just now the guard Lin sent someone to pass the word, saying that Gu Shizi did meet the sixth girl on New Year's Eve, and the sixth girl even invited Gu Shizi to the side hall to drink tea, but it didn't take long for the two of them to enter. They went out to Concubine Zhuang's place, and stayed until Miss Six left the palace before coming out together."

Chu Zhi stopped in his tracks: "You said Gu Shizi came out of the middle? He went to Concubine Zhuang's?"

"Exactly."

On New Year's Eve, Gu Changyan went to Concubine Zhuang's place?
Ah!This seems to be getting more and more interesting.

"You ask Guard Lin to keep watching to see if there is any other connection between Concubine Zhuang and Gu Changyan."

"The servant knows."

……

Originally, the old lady had decided to be Chu Zhi's aunt and grandma as the guest of honor, but she didn't expect to come forward. Concubine Xian Gui suddenly said that she would be Chu Zhi's guest of honor, which shocked the entire Chu family.

Prior to this, Concubine Xian summoned Chu Zhi once.

Said: "You are the head of Fu'an County personally appointed by His Majesty, and you have helped the Crown Prince so much. Jiji is a great gift. It happened that there was nothing to do that day. I can be your official guest for a while. You won't dislike me and refuse to invite you." Why don't you come?"

Concubine Xian Gui said so, how could Chu Zhi dare to refuse, so he nodded in agreement.

Concubine Xiangui was the guest of honor for Chu Zhi, and when Chu Xi learned about it, she threw down many teacups angrily.

Mother Cui said: "If the girl doesn't talk to His Highness, ask His Highness to vent your anger for you?"

Chu Xi squinted at Nanny Cui, and said with a sneer, "Your Highness is someone who wants to do big things. How can such a trivial matter bother His Highness?"

No matter how much the fourth prince dotes on her, she can't take it lightly. After all, she hasn't married yet. Besides, if the fourth prince talks too much about such trivial matters, he will get bored sooner or later. Chu Xi won't be so foolish and make fun of it.

She wanted to use the fourth prince, but good steel had to be used wisely.

The family rushed quickly, and it was the day when Chu Zhi, Chu Xi and Yan arrived.

A few days ago Chuzhang was promoted to the fourth rank of Dali Temple Shaoqing, now there are two daughters and Ji, there are not a few people who came to congratulate, the house is decorated with lanterns and festoons, bustling with people, very lively.

The old lady and Mrs. Wu stood on the east steps and waited for the guests. There was a priest standing under the west steps. A banquet was set up in the courtyard, and the guests who came to watch the ceremony waited in the courtyard.

After Chu Zhi and Chu Xi took a bath, they changed into clothes and shoes, and sat in the east room to wait.

With so many noble people here today, Mammy Qian was unavoidably nervous. She checked it carefully and instructed her carefully to make sure that there would be no mistakes, and then she waited with Chu Zhi in peace.

Seeing Qian Momo's anxiety, Chu Zhi comforted with a smile: "Mommy, relax, it's nothing."

Qian Momo replied: "Young lady has a big heart. How can the servants not be nervous when it comes to matters as important as Jili? What's more, there are so many vicious and noble people here today, so you can't be rude."

In fact, not only Mammy Qian, but even Chu Xi was unavoidably nervous.

Wu Shi stood aside and continued to comfort, and Chu Xi felt a little relieved.

When Dong'er saw it, she couldn't help but feel angry.

Madam is really eccentric, the girl is her own flesh and blood, but she stands next to the sixth girl to ask for her health and care, and she completely forgets about their girls.

Thanks to their girls' big hearts, they don't care.

Dong'er was afraid that Chu Zhi would feel uncomfortable seeing it, so she took a step forward without showing any signs, blocking Chu Zhi's sight.

In fact, Chu Zhi didn't feel anything.

Some things are destined not to be obtained, and some people are destined to have no destiny. If you can't force it, you just let it go.

Just as this compartment was busy, music began to play outside.

The imperial concubine and aunt Chu Zhi and grandma Qiao came, and everyone hurriedly greeted the guests of honor and entered the arena. As the father, Chu Zhang got up, gave a simple speech, and the ceremony began.

After Chu Zhang withdrew, the Seventh Princess and Meng Wan came out, washed their hands, and took their seats on the west steps. During the period, the two looked at each other, and the Seventh Princess had contempt and impatience in her eyes.

I thought it would be an honor for her to be a praiser for Chu Xi, and it would be such an honor for the little official of the Chu Mansion to invite her as a princess. I never expected that Concubine Xian Gui would be the guest of honor for Chu Zhi, The Seventh Princess' light went out immediately, how could she not be angry?

Meng Wan saw what Princess Seven was thinking, and almost burst out laughing in her heart.

Seventh Princess is a little bitch, just like Chu Xi, she is full of anger, and she likes to see these two angry.

After the two took their seats, Chu Zhi and Chu Xi left Ali one after another, walked to the center, bowed to the guests, and then knelt and sat on the seat facing west. Comb the hair for the two of them, and put the combs to the south of the mat.

There was a servant girl in that room holding copper basins for Concubine Xian and Mrs. Qiao. Accompanied by the old lady and Mrs. Wu, they washed their hands at the bottom of the east steps. Saluting, the imperial concubine and empress are of high status, so naturally they did not move, and then the two returned to their respective positions.

As soon as she was seated, the servant girl presented the ropa and hairpin, Concubine Xian took it and walked to Chu Zhi, Chu Zhi raised her eyes and smiled at Concubine Xian, Concubine Xian also raised her lips.

Then I listened to Concubine Xian reciting on top of Chu Zhi's head: "On the auspicious day of the month, start to add yuan clothes."Abandon your young aspirations, and follow your heart to become a virtue.Shoukao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu. "

After singing, he knelt down behind Chu Zhi and combed her hair.

Seeing Chu Zhi's indifference, many ladies in the courtyard praised her highly.

Those were imperial concubines and concubines, even they were terrified, but Chu Zhi was calm and calm, which was really impressive.
