Splendid Book

Chapter 119
There were lights and festoons at the gate of Uncle Yongshun's mansion, and it was full of guests, but when the carriage of Prince Zhao's mansion stopped, almost everyone's eyes turned to look over.Until a slender man got off the carriage, the expectations in his heart were fulfilled at this moment.

Although Ji Yu is not considered very old, his aura is not even comparable to those who have been decades older than him.This calm and introverted aura, even the current emperor once praised him, is enough to make a mountain collapse in front of his eyes without disturbing his mind.

It is said that it is heard, but I really saw the person, but I can suddenly realize the Tao, no wonder the people in this world are so sought after by him.

When he got off the car, Qiao Xu, the young master of Yongshun Bo's mansion, had already rushed over.It's not good for the elders to meet Ji Yu in person, but he, the eldest grandson of the eldest house, must come here.

"I've met the prince," Qiao Xu said respectfully, and invited him down.

Ji Yu looked around, and asked lightly: "Has the Ninth Prince come?"

As soon as Qiao Xu heard him ask the Ninth Prince, he hurriedly said: "The Ninth Prince sent someone to say that he would not come here until later, but it will definitely not miss the auspicious time."

The Ninth Prince was going to pick up the bride at the bride's house with the groom's official today, so he specially sent someone over to say something first.

At this time, the carriage of Prince Zhao's Mansion had already gone up to the second gate, so Ji Yu and Qiao Xu walked into the mansion together.The main door of the Qiao family, which is usually not easily opened, was also opened wide because of today's happy event.Qiao Xu welcomed them in respectfully, and the people on both sides just looked at them and didn't dare to disturb them.

On the other side, Shen Changle sat in a carriage all the way to the second gate, got out of the carriage and got into the sedan chair again.Speaking of which, this is the first time she has come to Yongshunbo's mansion, and the female family members of Yongshunbo's mansion have visited her in Prince Zhao's mansion before.Although she is an elder, she is a princess after all.

After getting off the sedan chair, there was still a long way to go. The woman who led the way was afraid that she would get impatient, so she introduced the scenery in the garden of Uncle Yongshun's mansion to her from time to time as she walked along the way.It's just that Shen Changle was born in the Duke of Wei's mansion, and his house is one of the best in the capital, and the scenery inside is even more magnificent.

Not to mention, now she is the princess of Prince Zhao's Mansion.Because Prince Zhao’s mansion is smaller than the mansions of the other princes, the emperor felt that Ji Yu had been wronged. When repairing the mansion, he asked the Ministry of Industry to do the best, almost the best that the prince can do. up.

So Shen Changle only took a few glances at the so-called scenery in Uncle Yongshun's mansion.When they got to the yard, Qiao Xu's wife Cao Shi came out to welcome him.

"I've seen the concubine." When Cao Shi saw Shen Changle, he greeted Shen Changle with blessings.

Shen Changle stepped forward to give her a little help, and said softly: "Biao sister-in-law is too polite, we are all one family, so she salutes like this, doesn't it mean that she has a relationship with me."

Mrs. Cao didn't expect her to say that, and a happy expression appeared on her face immediately.Because Shen Changle has never been to Uncle Yongshun's mansion for so long, so the elders in the mansion are talking in private, maybe this empress is jealous of Uncle Yongshun's mansion.After all, Qiao Yun almost became Princess Zhao back then.

However, Mrs. Cao felt that the concubine was not such a narrow-minded person, it was just what the elders said, and she was a junior, so she couldn't refute it casually.Now that the third young master of the second room is getting married, not only does the princess come so early, she even talks to her affectionately.

"Look at me, I just think about dignity, but I forget about the kinship. Since the princess said so, then I will take it seriously." Cao is the eldest grandson's wife of the Yongshun uncle's mansion, and she will also take care of her family in the future. Everyone's son, so he is very tactful, and he is very measured in what he says and does.

Shen Changle smiled gently, nodded and said: "This is what it should be, we are a family, if my cousin is polite to me again, I will be sad in my heart."

The two of them talked over and over again and entered the yard. At this time, the female relatives who came to visit had already sat down in the main hall.So before we got to the door, we could already hear the voices of voices inside, as well as the voice of a woman laughing delicately.

Shen Changle walked in hand in hand with Mrs. Cao, as soon as he entered the door, he felt that his eyes were full of flowers, all the women present were all dressed up, and the room was full of jewels.This room is really huge, it is made up of several rooms opened up, and the partitions in the room are all placed by Duobaoge.

The room was extremely lively, Shen Changle heard various voices as soon as he entered the door, but as soon as she entered, everyone still looked at her involuntarily.

Mrs. Yongshun knew that her daughter-in-law was going to greet Shen Changle, but if it was true, she should go to greet Shen Changle in person, that's what she should do.It's just that she insists that she is an elder, and she can't hold back this face, so this meeting came over, and said in an annoyed voice: "I'm really busy and confused today, the princess is here, and these women don't know to inform me." , so that I can go to greet him in person.”

Since she pretended not to know that Shen Changle was coming, Shen Changle naturally wouldn't tear down her steps.

"Eldest aunt's words really upset me, Changle is just a junior, how can I let my eldest aunt come and pick me up?" Shen Changle gave Mrs. Yongshun a lot of face, after all, this is Defei's natal family.If she did something wrong here today, I'm afraid it will be heard by the mother and concubine the next day.

When Mrs. Yongshun heard her call her eldest aunt, and then heard what she said, she immediately felt happy in her heart, and her face was even more smiling.

"I met my grandmother, I congratulate my grandmother." The old lady of the Qiao family is here today. After all, it is her grandson's wedding. She is sitting at the top of the table, wearing a purple long gown with gold, jade, riches and honor patterns, and most of it is gray. There is a whole set of emerald hair on her hair, and an emerald green jade bracelet on her wrinkled hands. There are very few jadeites of this color.

Shen Changle also knew that many people were not surprised by the ceremony, so he sweetly called grandma.

And this respectful address obviously made the old lady Qiao very satisfied. Looking at her, she nodded and said with a smile: "The princess is able to come, but she is full of brilliance."

The old lady's words were a bit too polite, but Shen Changle didn't care.When she was about to speak, Mrs. Cao on the side smiled and smoothed things over for her: "Old Ancestor, just now Princess Wang told me outside that we are all a family. Since we are a family, it is a good idea to come to the third brother's wedding banquet." It should."

"That's right, what my sister-in-law said is that the prince and I should come to attend the third cousin's wedding. Grandma's words like this will ruin Changle," she naturally followed Cao's words.

In fact, Mrs. Qiao still has some opinions on Shen Changle in her heart. Speaking of which, it has been several months since the prince married her.But apart from giving some festive gifts, this was the first time she visited the door.So when she met Shen Changle, it was inevitable that she would say a few words.

However, Mrs. Qiao forgot that if it was an ordinary granddaughter-in-law, then naturally she shouldn't do this.But Shen Changle is married to the prince, she is a first-rank concubine, how can a prince come here to please others.

When Shen Changle first got married, he also asked Ji Yu about it, but Ji Yu said that he was not in a hurry.That's why she didn't come to Uncle Yongshun's mansion.

As for Ji Yu, his mind is even more simple. To him, except for his little uncle who is his real relative in Uncle Yongshun's mansion, everyone else is irrelevant to him.So why did he let Chang Le come over, if he was to suffer here again, he really didn't know what he would do.

Fortunately, today is a day of great joy, and the old lady does not want to embarrass her.After saying a few words, she asked someone to prepare a chair for her. Naturally, her seat was in the front row, the one closest to old lady Qiao among the female relatives.

Because among the relatives of the Qiao family, there are only a few who have seen Shen Changle.So Mrs. Yongshun had to help her introduce her relatives. Sometimes it was this cousin, and sometimes it was that aunt. Shen Changle met these people in a daze.Originally, I could remember a general idea, but when there were too many people, I became confused.

So she didn't remember at all, just looked at everyone with a smile, as long as she smiled left and right.

As the guests kept coming, the auspicious time to leave to meet the relatives was naturally getting closer.The second wife of the Qiao family sent someone to check in the front hall from time to time, for fear of delaying the auspicious time of departure.This marriage can be done by a general, not to mention that the auspicious time of visiting the church must not be delayed, even the auspicious time of going out to meet the relatives has been set long ago.

The second Mrs. Qiao married her daughter-in-law today, so she naturally took care of her from top to bottom.So it was inevitable that she was a little negligent towards the female relatives here, and she came here only after Shen Changle sat here for a while.When I saw her coming, I was naturally very happy.

So she immediately asked the servant girl to call her daughter Qiao Yan, and the mother and daughter went outside, telling her behind her back: "Today is your brother's big day, and I will definitely not be able to greet the princess here. So You have to have a good talk with the princess, she came here because of your brother's wedding, don't let everyone in the eldest room steal the limelight."

Qiao Xu's wife, Cao Shi, is not to say she is a genius, but she acts quite prudently.Every time the Second Mrs. Qiao saw her, she would feel that Qiao Xu was really lucky to have a wife. She only hoped that she would be as capable as Cao's if she married her.

Qiao Yan was talking to someone, but her mother suddenly called her out. She thought she had something important to do, but she was talking about it.

She frowned slightly, apparently disliking her mother's advice.Although she usually shows all kinds of understanding and consideration in front of Concubine De, but after all, she is a delicate little girl, and she is always supported by others, so she will let her support Shen Changle, how can she be willing in her heart.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Mrs. Qiao Er became anxious immediately. If it weren't for the people coming and going, she would have poked the girl with her finger and pried her elm head open to have a look.

She hated iron and said: "What do you think I asked you to curry favor with her? Although you are liked by your mother now, you have also seen that your second sister will be more liked by your mother than you. But in the end What? She hasn't been able to marry your cousin yet. "

Qiao Yan didn't know why she said that, she just said: "Mother, why did you mention the matter of the second sister again?"

Mrs. Qiao Er sneered, how could she not mention it.Others thought that the reason why Qiao Yun failed to marry the seventh prince was because of something like that.But she could see it clearly, it was because the Seventh Prince didn't like her at all.So she didn't want her daughter to follow Qiao Yun's path. If Qiao Yan could be liked by the Ninth Prince, it would not be easy for her to marry him.

"The Prince and the Ninth Prince have a deep brotherhood. If you have a good relationship with Princess Zhao, are you afraid that she will not blow pillows for you in front of the Prince in the future? If you can let the Prince talk for you, will the Ninth Prince not notice you?" Qiao The second wife broke it apart bit by bit and analyzed it carefully for her daughter.

After hearing this, Qiao Yan understood her mother's good intentions.

So the resistance in her heart dissipated immediately, and she said with a smile: "It's because the daughter is thinking too little, mother taught me the lesson. Mother, you just go to work, this princess' daughter will definitely treat her well."

Seeing what she said, Mrs. Qiao was relieved.

When Qiao Yan went back again, she was also absent-minded when talking, and looked in Shen Changle's direction from time to time.

She was thinking a little bit shallowly before, what mother said was right, if she really made good friends with this cousin, she would be afraid that she would not speak nicely in front of the Ninth Prince in the future.Everyone knows that the Ninth Prince has always listened to Prince Zhao's words the most.

Although there were a lot of guests from Qiao's house, Shen Changle had a distinguished status, and there were not many who could talk to her, let alone those who dared to show her face.

The bullying that Ji Yu said was nothing at all.

After waiting for a while, someone came from the front, saying that the groom's officer had taken someone to pick up the bride.The little maid who reported back and forth was quick-spoken, and she also told all the people who went with her to meet her relatives. Naturally, there were Ninth Princes, as well as the eldest son of Qing Guogong's mansion, the youngest son of Chen Dashi's family. They are all young talents who are relatively well-known in the capital.

Everyone talked and laughed for a while.

After the banquet, Mrs. Yongshun naturally arranged Shen Changle at her own banquet, but Qiao Yan sat on the side seat, chatting with Shen Changle from time to time.Mrs. Yongshun saw them chatting and laughing, and took a look with a sneer.

On the other hand, Qiao Yun at the other table could hardly hide the jealousy in her eyes.

If she hadn't fallen into the water and was rescued by Feng Youfeng, the position of Princess Zhao should have been hers, everyone's envious eyes should be hers, and everyone's compliments should be hers.

But now she could only sit in the corner silently, afraid that others would see her, she couldn't bear the mocking eyes.

But a woman's jealousy is like a fire. When burning herself, she will accidentally burn others.
