world wife

Chapter 144
"Brother Yi, the bride is coming soon, so hurry up and get out." The old lady came to Zhao Lingyi's study, her face beaming with joy.

Zhao Lingyi inadvertently put away the letter paper in his hand, and looked at the old lady calmly
"I see." Today is the day of great joy, the day to marry the princess Yue Shuyi, although it is only half a month, but everything has already been prepared.

Seeing that Zhao Lingyi seemed not in high spirits, the old lady hurried forward to comfort him.

"Ling Yi, grandma knows how sincere you are in treating Xiyu, but this princess treats you very wholeheartedly. You were supposed to be a son-in-law to go to the princess mansion, but the princess voluntarily married into my Rongguo mansion. Such a good wife can marry For you, it is a great blessing, you should not treat the princess lightly, as for Xiyu, she is obedient and obedient, and grandma will definitely not treat her badly in the future." The old lady laughed, and now the princess After marrying in, the Rongguo Mansion will take back the position of Rong Guogong just around the corner, and the lintel of the Rongguo Mansion will definitely shine, and she is finally worthy of the dead old man.

Zhao Lingyi looked cold but did not answer the old lady's words

"It's almost time, I'll go out first." Zhao Lingyi got up and went out of the study directly, ignoring the old lady who was still standing in the study.

"Old lady, the uncle is still thinking about Aunt Lian, so don't take it to heart." The mother who supported the old lady comforted her.

The old lady sighed heavily.

"I'm afraid he still resents me in his heart. He has always cared about what happened back then, and now he hasn't been able to get rid of this grudge." After finishing speaking, he turned and looked at his mother beside him.

"Did the eldest lady come out?" Because of the matter with the Fourth Prince's Mansion, the eldest lady's reputation has almost been ruined now. There are still some noble ladies in the capital who have been friends with her for the sake of the Fourth Prince's Mansion and the Yang Mansion. It also seems to have drawn a clear line. This time Zhao Lingyi married the prince's younger sister, and directly assigned the Rongguo Mansion to the prince's faction, and those people were even more unwilling to associate with the eldest lady.

"The eldest madam claims to be sick and is still lying on the bed." The mother who supported the old madam laughed.

The old lady also had a smile on her face.
"It doesn't matter if you don't come, my old lady is around. Come out, master." The old lady supported her mother's hand and went out.

mom nods
"Master has already received colleagues and guests in the front hall."

Only then did the old lady laugh, seeing the festive happy words posted all around her, she let go of the stone in her heart, and when she arrived at the front hall, she saw that the Rongguo Mansion was full of guests who hadn't appeared in a long time, welcoming them lively, the old lady She was shaking with excitement as she held her mother's hand

"Sooner or later, our Rongguo Mansion will take back the position of Duke Rong again, and restore the former grandeur." The old lady walked into the crowd, and seeing the envious or flattering faces of the people around her, the old lady straightened her back a little, She entered the inner hall with a smile on her face, sat in the high hall, watched the two red figures outside slowly walk in amidst the cheers of the crowd, the smile on the old lady's face had reached its peak, but Master Zhao's complexion was slightly congested, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Zhao Lingyi's hand holding the red silk was already turning white from clenching tightly, but he had to look at the happy faces of everyone and walked in step by step.

"One Worship"

"Second Worship Hall"

"Happy Couple"

Zhao Lingyi finished the salute dumbly, he could clearly see the joy on everyone's faces, but his heart was in a freezer, he had always understood what a threatening situation was, so he knew how to endure better than everyone else.

Shu Xia's carriage was just outside the Rongguo Mansion, seeing the festive appearance inside, her face turned purple with anger, resisting the urge to rush in, ordered the carriage to turn around, and prepared to write a letter and send it to Yangzhou, but the letter hadn't arrived yet. He was stopped when he sent it out.

"General Wei?" Seeing the man who suddenly came to her small courtyard, Shu Xia was a little surprised.

"Don't tell her the news." Wei Jingheng said with serious eyes.

"Why? Now that Mr. Zhao has remarried, young mistress should know about it." Shu Xia was still a little annoyed, thinking that her girl was made a concubine for no reason, and she couldn't calm down.

"I will go to Yangzhou." After Wei Jingheng finished speaking, he turned around and left.

Shu Xia was stunned, but before he could ask why Wei Jingheng knew where this place was, Wei Jingheng had disappeared.

"My lord, something happened." Huai Li looked at Zhao Lingyi who was talking to the prince, with a slightly embarrassed expression on his face.

"What's going on?" The prince asked hastily when he heard what happened.

"It's an accident in the General's Mansion." Huai Li said awkwardly, the people around seemed to have heard some movement, and they all fell silent, Zhao Lingyi also heard the screaming cries from outside at this moment.

"What happened to the General's Mansion?" Zhao Lingyi asked, he knew that the General's Mansion was next door.

"The General's Mansion is currently holding a funeral. It is said that the General's pet dog has passed away. We sent people to negotiate, but inside and outside the General's Mansion are full of people in mourning clothes, crying bitterly, looking at the subordinates. Wearing red, she was coaxed out before she could get close, and no one in our house was allowed to get close." Huai Li looked at Zhao Ling with difficulty and said.

Hearing Huai Li's words, the prince's complexion darkened immediately.
"Wei Jingheng is bold, but after a dog died, he dared to hold a funeral with great fanfare. Do you want to disturb the princess's happy event?"

"This subordinate also said the same thing, but,," said Huai Li's complexion even more embarrassing.

"But what?" The prince's expression was not good. Wei Jingheng was clearly slapping him in the face of the prince's house, but he was just a general, how dare he go so rampant!
"But General Wei sent someone to say that the prince's dog can handle weddings, so why can't his dog handle funerals?" After Huai Li finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and waited for Zhao Lingyi to punish him. Going out to look for Wei Jingheng but was stopped by Zhao Lingyi, Zhao Lingyi smiled slightly

"It's okay, let him alone."

"Zhao Lingyi?" Looking at Zhao Lingyi like this, even Prince Yuexuan was puzzled.

"Today is my minister's rejoicing, so naturally everything will be happy. General Wei is right, so let him be." Zhao Lingyi smiled lightly, and looked at the prince's puzzled look, and bowed to salute
"I'm a little tired, I want to go down and have a rest, and I ask the prince to agree."

Yuexuan looked at Zhao Lingyi, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes

"Ling Yi, Shuyi is not only the jewel in the palm of my father, but also my sister. You should know that if you treat her badly, I will think you are rebelling against the East Palace, but I understand."

Zhao Lingyi lowered his face, just when a shadow came over, making it hard to see the expression on his face

"I understand."

Zhao Lingyi turned around and went to the study, wanting to avoid these for a while, but a figure he didn't want to see walked out halfway

"Lingyi." Master Zhao looked at Zhao Lingyi with indescribable complex emotions on his face.

"My son has met his father." Zhao Lingyi looked indifferently, looking at Mr. Zhao, the man he called his father in front of him had no emotion in his eyes.

Master Zhao waved his hand to signal Huai Li to step back, then he turned and went to Zhao Lingyi's study
"Follow me." The tone was a little pale and tired.

Zhao Lingyi frowned, but still followed.
