Chapter 5 Fiancée?

Xie Zhiyun's almond eyes drooped slightly, glanced at his palm with a picky look, and then stretched out his hand to Mu Yun.

While Madam Jia asked Mu Yun to call Chaoyu, a pair of guards said with a smile: "Son-in-law wait a moment. It's been cold recently. The young lady is so delicate that she still has to wear a cloak."

Wei Ji nodded at her, and did not walk into the main room. He still leaned against the screen and looked at Xie Zhiyun indifferently.

Xie Zhiyun was talking softly to Mu Yun, but her eyes did not fall on Wei Ji, but she glanced slightly at his waist.

Although he was a military officer, a piece of white jade in the waist of the guard halberd always fell on his body.

The white jade is in the style of Ruyi buckle, simple and simple, with an average color, and is not a rare thing.

Xie Zhiyun had sharp eyes and found out from the day of her wedding that he never left him.

However, Xie Zhiyun did not want to talk to him about these minor matters, so she did not ask about them in detail.

Wei Ji seems approachable, but he never says anything he can't say. Sometimes he is very tired when talking to him.

Mu Yun finally put a tourmaline flower hairpin between her hair, and Xie Zhiyun was satisfied.

Wei Ji paused slightly, and he turned his head to look at it, and saw Xie Zhiyun walking slowly behind him, as if he was enjoying the winter scenery in the garden, but he did not chase after him.

The eldest lady Wei Ningshu sat down at the table, listening quietly to the young lady Wei Ning'an. The whole time he listened to the ceremony was full of joy, and the family was prosperous.

Wei Ji was talking to his third brother Wei Rong, while his second brother Wei Yao and his second brother Yu Hanzhao were sitting next to him. The couple were having tea on their own and didn't pay attention to each other.

Xie Zhiyun thought she was a daughter of a noble family and always had to be kind and polite, elegant and generous when dealing with people. Therefore, even if she met Ji Xiuxiu, she was always a dignified and decent sister-in-law.

Wei Ji is the eldest son, so Chunhuating where they live is located is near Rongjingtang and can be reached in a moment's walk.

Xie Zhiyun's heart thumped. She subconsciously clenched her palms, and the smile on her face also passed with the wind.

Even so, when she met her third brother Ji Xiuxiu at the door of Rongjingtang, the smile on her face still seemed a little cold.

Therefore, she has not returned to the Wei family once in these years. Even though Wei Cang is now in power, she is Duke Su, who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people, she does not have contacts with Wei Cang.

Cui Ji was still gentle: "My sister-in-law, this is the marriage decided by the Duke."

But I didn't expect that this aunt would return to Duke Su's mansion.

Wei Ji didn't know why she was angry again, so she refused to bother her and just talked to her third brother.

Cui Ji's every word is gentle, but the words are filled with a knife, which stabs the man's heart.

Chaoyu naturally didn't know this. After hearing Xie Zhiyun's words, Chaoyu felt a little nervous: "Wen Chun, the wife said just now...?"

Xie Zhiyun had already seen the etiquette in the same room after these two sentences. No matter what his attitude was, he should have a lot of etiquette.

Ji Xiuxiu snorted, and she stood at the door to repair the makeup on her face, then she entered Rongjingtang with her head held high and her chest held high.

Chaoyu also came, and Xie Zhiyun put on a cloak and went out of Chunhuting with the guards.

Sure enough, the man was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time. Finally, he said: "My sister-in-law is traitorous and has broken a marriage that has been decided long ago."

After saying that, without waiting for Xie Zhiyun's reaction, he strode and disappeared between the rockery.

Chaoyu lowered his voice: "Miss, it's time to go to Rongjingtang."

"Yeah, isn't this the eldest sister-in-law?" Ji Xiuxiu's eyes rolled and she immediately asked, "Why didn't you come with the eldest brother?"

Chaoyu was so scared that he patted Xie Zhiyun's back: "Wouldn't it be good for my son-in-law to leave first? We came out early and could still stroll in the yard for a while."

There were naturally more than one person in the pavilion. After the woman finished speaking, another voice became very familiar.

Aristocratic families pay the most attention to filial piety, brotherhood, loyalty, trustworthiness, courtesy, righteousness, integrity and shame, especially major marriage events. They must not be careful and make arrangements between multiple parties.

Ji Xiuxiu's face was a little plump. Before she could enter, Xie Zhiyun was shook her eyes by the row of golden hairpins on her head.

On one side of the trail is the Taihu stone awarded by Emperor Tianqi of North Vietnam. It is towering and rugged, with rugged rocks, which is very beautiful.

"What's the pride?" Ji Xiuxiu said to her maid Yuanbao, "I will use the style of a noble family. Their Xie family is just a paper lantern, and only by playing with wax can it be bright."

Chaoyu's expression was also not good.

The master and servant walked onto a path. The path was quiet and covered with dense holly for two weeks, and even in the cold winter, it was still as green as new.

Xie Zhiyun remembers that when the two families were discussing marriage, their father-in-law said that Wei Ji had never been married, so why did he have a fiancée today?

That was Xie Zhiyun's mother-in-law Cui.

Wei Ji nodded lightly: "Your idea is very good, but you are too reckless, there will be no next time."

Xie Zhijun paused slightly, and she looked at Ji Xiuxiu and smiled faintly: "Didn't the third brother come with the third brother's wife?"

He said he didn't know, but he must really not know. It seemed that the visitor was in a hurry to come to the door, and even the guards didn't know the truth.

Leaving Ji Xiuxiu at the door, looking at her graceful back and rolling her eyes.

"Yes." Xie Zhiyun threw away two words lightly, held Chaoyu's hand and went straight into Rongjingtang.

"My aunt is Boqian's biological aunt, so I should also feel sorry for Boqian."

The shape of the Duke of Suguo is imitated in the old North Vietnamese system. Most of the mansions are single courtyards and bureaus, surrounded by main buildings and pavilions and gardens to make a family reunion.

Wei Rong hurriedly bowed: "Yes, I understand."

Xie Zhiyun was angry: "You guy!"

Just after walking thirty or fifty steps from Chunhuting, Xie Zhijun snorted: "What are you doing when you are walking so fast?"

Hearing the footsteps, Wei Ji raised his eyes and glanced at the door.

If the Duke's wife Cui, who is not the current Duke, also came from a clan, was afraid that the Duke's Mansion would have been built in a mess and would not have been able to see it.

Xie Zhijun nodded, holding her hand and was about to turn around, and then he heard a voice from the other side.

Wei Ji didn't even look at Madam Jia, but just said, "I don't know."

Yuanbao quickly pulled her sleeve: "Miss!"

She seemed to be casually talking about her family: "I heard that a guest is coming from home, is it a guest or a guest from afar?"

Guard: "..."

Xie Zhiyun took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down: "The person who came should be the prince's real sister. Wei Ying, who married Huzhou Mu in her early years. I remember her father once said that she had a very bad relationship with Huzhou Mu and had no children even after ten years of marriage."

Xie Zhiyun happened to meet his inquiring gaze, and immediately remembered the aunt's words in his ears. His temper still surged up and he couldn't help but glar at him.

In addition to the Duke and his wife and guests, many people had already sat in the ceremony.

After coming out of Chunhuting, it was a newly built garden in the mansion, called Baifang Garden. The green chrysanthemums were planted earlier, but Xie Zhiyun didn't like the color. The day before yesterday, it was replaced by camellia that could bloom colorfully in winter.

Xie Zhiyun is worthy of being the legitimate daughter of a grand family. She was not panicked at all when encountering things. After she calmed down, she said to Chaoyu: "You know this, don't talk to Mu Yun and the nanny. Don't worry, this is just a trivial matter."

There is another pavilion behind Taihu Stone. The sound should have come from there, vaguely, but it makes you hear it from the path.

Bo Qian is the word Wei Ji.

Ji Xiuxiu's expression changed slightly, but she reached out to support Jin Buyao on her head: "My husband has something to ask for advice from her father-in-law, so I'll let him come first."

"No matter who Wen Chun is, I am the prince's wife of Duke Su's mansion. Whether Wei is cheated or regretted the marriage, the ending cannot be changed."

Xie Zhiyun did not listen to the following words. She tried hard to suppress the surprise in her heart and helped Chaoyu's hand to walk out of the path.

He said he wanted to go to Rongjingtang together and waited for her, but now he left by himself. I don’t know if he was careful or careless.

Chaoyu asked in a low voice: "Miss, what should I do?"

Because of this, when Xie Zhiyun guessed who the visitor was, she directly skipped her.

Wei Ji strode ahead, Xie Zhiyun followed behind, she was wrapped in a cloak, but she was not afraid of the coldness of winter at all.

Wei Rong just turned 18 this year and is the youngest among the three brothers. He has a pretty face and a childish face. He is the most normal among the three brothers.

Chaoyu said: "Miss has always had a good vision."

When Xie Zhiyun arrived at Rongjingtang, the whole family had almost arrived.

He frowned, but was not confused, and said, "I have something to discuss with my father, so I'll go first. You can go to Rongjingtang slowly."

Xie Zhiyun looked at the blooming camellia, and there was a little smile between her eyebrows: "This camellia is still beautiful."

A strange female voice sounded: "Why did my sister-in-law hurry to make a marriage for Bo Qian? Now the engagement has been completed. What should I do when Chun'er finds her home?"

Although the Wei family was already extremely noble and powerful, and forced the Northern Vietnamese royal family to shrink to Yingzhou and dared not go anywhere, the whole family still maintained their old habits.

Wei Ying was unwilling to do so, but he couldn't twist his brother, so he had to remarry with tears.

Cui's voice was gentle and his words were comforting: "My aunt has been there for six years. I have been in the mansion and wrote many times that Wen Chun has not found it. Seeing that Bo Qian is over the age of twentieth, it would be inappropriate if he doesn't marry him again."

In the early years, ten of the sixteen prefectures in North Vietnam rebelled. Wei Cang achieved hegemony in troubled times. At that time, Wei Ying's husband died early. She was young and widowed, so Wei Cang made the decision to marry her to the newly surrendered Huzhou Governor.

He said righteously: "Thank you, elder brother, for speaking for me just now. If it weren't for this, this board would not be able to escape."

Yezhou is not as cold as the northwest during winter, and the Ziming River in the city has not frozen, and it still flows into the Changshan River.

Xie Zhiyun's eyebrows raised slightly, and there was a clear alienation and indifference between her eyebrows.

But after a few words, Xie Zhiyun had already recovered. She slowly exhaled and tried to calm her mood.

Xie Zhiyun walked forward a few steps and was about to sit beside the Wei Ji when he heard a female voice coming from outside: "Why has the younger generation been seated before the parents arrived? Who taught you the rules?"

The voice was familiar and unfamiliar, but Xie Zhiyun could already hear it.

The speaker was Wei Ji's aunt, Wei Ying, the wife of Huzhou Mu.

Perhaps... he was also the adoptive mother of Wei Ji's former fiancée.
