120, Shen's plan
Ishihara Hai was waiting anxiously in the mansion for Shi Jinrou to come back, because in the tone and expression of Madam Su, he realized that the Madam did not seem to be very welcome to visiting the Marquis' Mansion tomorrow.
"What the hell is going on? Is the grandma really sick or is there any other reason? Did I handle something wrong and make the grandma unhappy?" Ishihara's heart was in decline and was worried.
Until evening, Shi Jinrou finally returned from the Hou's Mansion.
The first thing Ishihara said when he saw his daughter was: "Did you see the Madam?"
Shi Jinrou nodded and said, "I saw you, after saying goodbye to Princess Anning, I will go to see the lady."
"Is the lady sick?"
Shi Jinrou said in confusion: "No, why did my father ask that?"
"That's right. Madam Su is here to pick you up. When you go back to your room to change your clothes, you told her about going to the Marquis's house tomorrow. I saw Madam Su's expression flashing, as if she didn't want us to go.
, and said that the lady was in poor health.”
Shi Jinrou thought about the scene of being with the Grandma in the Marquis’ Mansion just now, and couldn’t help but say confused: “No! Grandma is so good, nothing wrong with it. And she specially ordered Madam Su in front of me,
I asked Madam Su to instruct the kitchen to invite my father and me tomorrow night.”
Ishihara Hai murmured suspiciously: "This is really strange. What does Madam Su's performance mean?"
"Dad, don't think about it. We are going to go tomorrow afternoon. I can't say that there are some quarrels in the Marquis' Mansion, it has nothing to do with us."
Ishihara nodded and said yes, then asked again: "What did the princess tell you?"
Shi Jinrou took out the gold bracelet and handed it to Ishihara Hai, and briefly conveyed the content of her meeting with Princess An Ning to her father.
After hearing this, Ishihara Hai said in a deep thought: "Now, everything has finally come true. When we go to the Hou Mansion tomorrow, we can prepare for the New Year and prepare for Xiuhe's wedding."
..............
Just as Shi Jinrou persuaded her father that there was no need to bother to guess, the next day, after seeing off Princess An Ning, there was a fierce quarrel in the Marquis’ Mansion before Ishihara Hai and his daughter returned to the Marquis’ Mansion.
The servants had been bombed into the yard. In addition to the Madam's confidant Madam Su, only Madam, the Marquis, and Shen, who had just returned from the capital.
The grandma looked at Shen in a steady state and said in a deep voice: "I am really worthy of being the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion. I have such a great skill. I didn't even discuss with the Marquis and I and went to the capital to go on a blind date for Honger.
You said you have never become so filial and are trying to go back to Beijing to visit your parents? It turns out that you have planned it long ago!"
Shen knelt in front of the lady with a "thump" and said aggrievedly: "Don't calm down! My daughter-in-law is wronged, and my daughter-in-law doesn't know why my mother said that, I didn't go on a blind date for Honger!"
The Marquis slammed the teacup in his hand on the table and scolded him: "I still want to deny it. If we don't have any definite news, will we still frame you?"
The lady frowned slightly and said to Shen: "You should get up and talk. If you kneel like this, I, an old woman, can't bear it."
"Mother!" Shen began to choke.
The lady breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the letter from the table, and handed it to Madam Su beside her.
Madam Su understood and immediately handed the letter to Shen.
The lady said, "You can read this letter first, and then think about it before telling us!"
Mrs. Shen wiped the faint tears in the corner of her eyes and opened the letter.
The letter was written by the Queen Mother to the Queen Mother.
In the letter, the empress dowager said that the marriage matter was temporarily put on hold and An Ning could return to Beijing. In order to prevent the marriage matter from being mentioned again in the future, the empress dowager planned to hold the marriage between Shi Xiaohong and An Ning after the New Year. Then, the empress dowager changed her writing and said
When Shen's activity in Beijing, he said that he found that Shen was constantly visiting the homes of honorary officials in Beijing. He even asked Concubine Wu through Princess Fuling, Ran Yicheng's mother, to ask Concubine Wu to let Shi Xiaohong and Concubine Wu's brother
Wu Ge Lao's legitimate granddaughter is engaged.
In the letter, the Queen Mother expressed her dissatisfaction with the matter and complained that the Queen Mother would not discuss it with her in advance.
After seeing this, Shen's face turned pale and speechless.
The lady looked at Shen's bitter expression, sighed softly, and said earnestly:
"I have reminded you how many times, since our Marquis' Mansion is not in the court, then don't participate in the affairs of the court, and you must be far away from those royal relatives. Ten years Hedong, ten years Hexi, and now those seals are now
You are the prime minister and the nobles who are incredibly glorious, do you know what will happen to them in the future? Think about the former King of Yin and King of Ping, who is not a prominent and powerful person among the people? But what is the result?"
The Marquis also scolded, "You always treat your mother's words as a warning! If you dare to make decisions about Honger's affairs in the future, be careful that I will divorce my wife!"
The lady glared at the Marquis and said dissatisfiedly: "Stop talking nonsense! Things are not that serious yet." Then the lady slowed down her tone and said to Shen:
"The reason why our marquis' mansion can stand for a hundred years is because of the rules set by our ancestors. You must not break the rules and make a mistake in your generation. Otherwise, how can you meet your ancestors and ancestors after a hundred years?
?”
Shen was a little depressed and nodded in response. He no longer dared to defend himself.
The lady breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, stop crying. Later, Lord Shi and Mr. Shi are going to visit the mansion. You go down and wash, otherwise you will see your eyes red and meet the guests.
That's not good."
Shen agreed, stood up, lowered his head and walked out of the room.
When Shen left the room, the grandmother said to the Marquis again: "Let's go back and ask your wife and the people in our capital, what is the matter between Honger and Wu Ge Lao's granddaughter? If you still have time, you want to
Find a way to save this matter! Remember, don’t offend Mr. Wu.”
The Marquis bowed and said, "Don't worry, mother, my son knows how to do it."
The lady waved her hand and said tiredly: "You go, I'm a little tired and want to take a nap. She will also receive Mr. Shi and his daughter tonight."
The marquis agreed and was about to leave the house when he was suddenly stopped by the grandma and ordered him: "By the way, you ask Honger to come, I have a few words to say to him."
The Marquis responded and turned around and left.
