Chapter 1367 Happy Event
Author: Loeva
Agui was the boy who had served Zhao Mo since he was a child and was loyal to him.
When Zhao Mo was abandoned by his father, Zhao Shuo, Zhao Shuo sent his eldest son to his ex-in-law's family, the Wen family in Datong, for the sake of his newly married step-wife, Xiao Wang. The Wang family secretly contacted the Wen family, and the two families colluded to take Zhao Mo away.
He was placed under house arrest with bad intentions. In order to protect Zhao Mo and help him escape, Agui suffered serious injuries. Although he later saved his life, his face was scarred and disfigured. He was a servant from the royal palace.
, thinking that after ruining his appearance, he lost the qualification to serve his master. So Zhao Mo handed over the only private property he had to him and asked him to take care of it.
Now many years have passed, Zhao Mo is not what he used to be, and Agui is no longer the poor boy he used to be. He is now in charge of all Zhao Mo's properties in Zhili, including farms, shops, warehouses, etc., and occasionally
He is also involved in the management of shipping companies and trading companies, and can be said to have great power. Because of the injury on his face, he will not go out to meet people unless necessary, and he does not often come to Suyang County Prince's Mansion in the capital. Unlike A Shou
He was known to be Zhao Mo's confidant. But even so, no one in the Suyang County Prince's Palace dared to underestimate him.
Of course Qin Hanzhen knows Agui and has met him several times. She knows that he is an honest and loyal person, and his style of doing things may be a little harsh, but considering his experience, this is understandable. However, she vaguely remembers Agui.
Gui is the oldest among Zhao Mo's confidants. He is already in his twenties and should be engaged.
She couldn't help but ask Zhao Mo: "Don't Agui already have a fiancée? I remember she is the daughter of a wealthy businessman, right? Why are you asking to marry our girl now? I can explain in advance that my girl will never give it to her.
You are a concubine! Even if Agui is your confidant and has served as a savior, there is no need to discuss it!"
Zhao Mo said hurriedly: "Look where you are thinking of? Even if it is A Gui, if he wants to take a concubine, he will find someone by himself. There is absolutely no reason to set his mind on your girl. He originally made a marriage agreement, right?
, but later he discovered that something was not right with his fiancée’s family, so he called off the marriage. Therefore, he is not married yet and is still a bachelor!”
Speaking of which, Agui is also a bit unlucky. Originally, he met his ex-fiancée by chance, which was a good story. The other person is the daughter of a wealthy businessman. Although he is not a wealthy family, he is still well-off. The girl has also been studying since she was a child.
, she is also beautiful and has a gentle temperament. Neither I nor my family dislike that Agui was born as a servant, and the wealth in his hands is not owned by him, but managed for his master. The girl is willing to marry with a large dowry. Anyone who knows
Who doesn't envy Agui for his good life? No one would have thought that the family planned this marriage on purpose. Even what Agui thought was love at first sight was deliberately done by the other party in order to use his marriage to gain a fortune.
He went to Suyang County Prince's Mansion, and then borrowed the power of the County Prince's Mansion to seek benefits for his family.
If it was just like this, it would be fine. It would be impossible for him to marry his beloved daughter to a man who was born as a servant without some conspiracy. If the other party hadn't gone too far and got along well with Agui, Zhao Mo would have turned a blind eye.
Turn one eye, close one eye. But that family was greedy enough. Not only did they want to use Agui to climb up to Zhao Mo for their own benefit, they also wanted to use the power of the Suyang County Prince's Palace to usurp the property of another clan member of the family.
.At the same time, they also plan to get involved in the palace's industry that Agui is responsible for, steal the interests of the palace, and enrich themselves.
After discovering the plot of the future Yue family, Agui showed no mercy and immediately chose to break off the engagement. No matter how his fiancée cried and cursed, he remained unmoved. When he saw that the other party was making a big fuss, he did not hesitate to use the banner of Suyang County Prince's Palace.
Come and suppress the other party. He didn't give up until the other party's property had shrunk by half and he still lost in the family fight. He knew that he had offended the wrong person and honestly stopped.
Just like this, everyone in the world knew that Agui was not easy to handle, and that he was ruthless. It was a delusion to use him to seek the benefits of the palace, and no one dared to propose marriage to him anymore. Agui's marriage
After procrastinating until now that I am quite old, I finally made up my mind to marry a daughter-in-law.
However, this time he no longer considered hiring a wife from outside, and directly asked Zhao Mo to choose someone from among the maids of the palace. The ones who served in the main courtyard were the best. Because the maids serving in the main courtyard were basically loyal and reliable.
His education, etiquette and other aspects are all above the standard. Even if his appearance is not beautiful, he is at least with good features. Considering his status, Agui felt that it would be better to marry a wife with the same background as himself. Both husband and wife are equally loyal to
In Suyang County and Prince's Mansion, their words, deeds, views on worldly affairs, etc. are all in harmony, and they are not incompatible with each other.
Zhao Mo said to Qin Hanzhen: "When he came to the house last time, he mentioned that he wanted to marry a girl who serves in our courtyard. As long as she is of the right age, sensible and loyal, it will be fine, in terms of appearance and rank.
Talent, learning, skills, etc. are all secondary. I told him to let him choose someone by himself. If he chooses someone and the other person is willing to marry him, then I will make the decision for him. I also told him that if he
The person he likes is not willing to marry him, and he is not allowed to do anything wrong, because the princess will not let others bully her girl. It has only been a few days, and he comes again, maybe there is someone else to choose? "
Qin Hanzhen looked at him sideways: "Why didn't you tell me about this? If he wants to choose someone from my girls, I have to say hello to everyone, right? Is it up to him to pick and choose in private?
La?"
Zhao Mo hurriedly smiled and coaxed Qin Hanzhen: "Can I still tolerate him being so presumptuous? Don't worry, he doesn't dare to do anything rude. It's just that he can come into contact with the girls in our courtyard when doing business. Try
Just say a few words and get along with each other. No more. If you don't believe me, just ask the gatekeeper to see if Agui has ever done anything unruly?"
Qin Hanzhen said that, but he couldn't help but say a few more words: "You should have told me in advance!"
Zhao Mo smiled and apologized. In fact, he did want to tell Qin Hanzhen originally, but he was busy with something that day, so he forgot about it. Now he remembered it, but it was too late. But it doesn't matter, it's harmless. No
If you tell your wife in advance that the girls waiting in the main courtyard don't know about it in advance, it might save you a lot of trouble. Although Agui is disfigured, he is indeed a powerful official with real power. If any girl is vain,
He wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to actively cling to him, but he actually had no sincerity. Agui was not careful for a moment and married the wrong person. Wouldn't it affect his life? As now, all the girls treat Agui with a normal heart, and only then can Agui really have a chance.
Find the right woman for you.
Qin Hanzhen was not really angry, so she calmed down after asking Zhao Mo to coax him a few words. She stared at Zhao Mo as he ate something for a midnight snack, urging him to take a rest early. When she woke up the next morning
, but Zhao Mo had already finished dressing up and put on his auspicious clothes, preparing to enter the palace. He sat on the edge of the bed and gently pressed Qin Hanzhen's shoulders: "I slept late last night, please sleep a little longer.
.You don’t have to wait for me for lunch, I should be eating in the palace.”
Qin Hanzhen propped up his body and looked out the window: "It seems to be a cloudy day today. Remember to ask someone to bring an umbrella and a cloak, just in case. Remember to have breakfast before leaving. Don't go in with an empty stomach.
Go to the palace!"
Zhao Mo agreed with a smile, pushed her back into bed, and said, "I'm going to have breakfast. I can also meet Agui on the way to see which girl he has chosen."
Qin Hanzhen said: "If you ask for your name, remember to send someone to deliver a message to me. I can also ask the girl if she is willing."
Zhao Mo agreed, carefully tucked the corner of the quilt for her, then turned and left. Qin Hanzhen took a deep sleep, and it was already bright when she woke up. She got up to wash up, and when she was having breakfast, Feng'er came in with an envelope:
"This was handed in from the outer court. It is said to be a note written by the prince to the princess before going out. It has been agreed in advance."
Qin Hanzhen understood it as soon as she heard it: "Bring it to me and see." She put down the bowl and chopsticks, took the envelope, opened it, and took out the short note inside, with the word "Lianshi" scrawled on it, and she couldn't help but be surprised.
But after thinking about it carefully, I think this answer is very reasonable.
Agui wanted an honest and loyal wife, and Lianshi happened to be such a person. She was also the eldest girl she was marrying. She was very suitable in terms of status and level of loyalty. Thinking again of yesterday, Qin Hanzhen accepted the favor from Cheng En.
When the Hou Mansion came back, she asked about things in the house. Lian Shi reported to her that Agui had arrived at the house. Her expression was a little strange. Maybe the two of them had contact in private.
Qin Hanzhen pondered for a moment, then stuffed the note back into the envelope and continued to eat breakfast. After eating, he told Feng'er: "Ask Lianshi to come."
Feng'er just glanced at the note and was still wondering what was going on. After hearing the words, he went there and soon brought Lianshi in.
Qin Hanzhen only left Lianrui in the room, and everyone else called out. This movement inevitably attracted the attention of others. Lianrui saw it from a distance and wanted to inquire, but the only person who was in the room just now was Feng'er.
, naturally only Feng'er was the most likely to know. She felt awkward, so she urged Lian Ye to ask for her.
Lian Ye rolled her eyes at her, but still did her a favor and went to ask Feng'er. How could Feng'er tell the truth? What's more, she didn't know anything about it in the first place: "I don't know either. What did the princess ask me to do?
That’s what I did.”
Lian Ye could tell that Feng'er was telling the truth, so she stopped asking any more questions and turned around to tell Lian Rui. Lian Rui was dubious: "What is one thing about the princess that she doesn't know? She just hid it from us on purpose.
It’s just to show off that I’m important.” Lianye glared at her: “Don’t talk nonsense, Feng’er is not such a person. Why does she need to show off to us? She doesn’t show off, and she is also the one who is most important. Don’t worry about it.
It’s sour here!”
Lian Rui was choked, but was speechless.
It didn't take long for Qin Hanzhen to call Lianshi to talk alone. After a while, he called in all the first- and second-class girls and respectable women, and happily announced to everyone: "Agui, the prince,
I begged Lianshi to marry me, and Lianshi agreed. After I surrendered, I asked someone to pick a good and auspicious day for them and make the final bet for them. This is a happy event for our palace, everyone congratulates Lianshi.
She is the first among you to get married, and she has always been on good terms with everyone, so don’t forget to give her a dowry later." After saying that, he also gave Hasumi a generous dowry and a set of silver-toned masks.
, ten pieces of rough silk, ten pieces of Songjiang cloth.
Everyone was surprised. Feng'er was the first to congratulate Lianshi, and then Baiqiao, Lotus Leaf, Lotus Clothes, Nectar, and Yuqian also congratulated Lianshi. Lianrui was too surprised and fell behind.
.Seeing Lianshi accepting everyone's blessings with a shy face, she didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
