Chapter 377 Selection of son-in-law
Mi Tuan took the order to go, and after leaving Buyunlou, he met the little servant in Wanpin's palace, and flatteredly called "Mi Tuan Gonggong", Mi Tuan laughed twice, shook his head pityingly, and did not let him The little servant found out.
In the same night, Dongchang sent more than a dozen people to the capital.
Tingtao Mountain Villa is very close to Taohua Mountain Villa. If you ride a horse, you will arrive in less than half an hour. Although Xie Tiao came with the car, but in order to take care of his grandchildren, he lived in Tingtao Mountain Villa.
When Xie Zhiwei brought his younger brothers and sisters over, Tang Jing'an had already led Zhuangzi's people out to welcome Xie Zhiwei into the main house. There were five big rooms in total. Xie Zhiwei asked his younger brother to live with him. , settled the three younger sisters, and Xie Mingcheng lived in the outer courtyard with Xie Tiao.
Xie Zhiwei washed and changed her clothes before tidying up. When she heard that Xie Tiao was coming, she hurriedly went out to greet him. Seeing that Xie Tiao had already passed through the courtyard, she welcomed Xie Tiao to the study in Dongshaojian.
"Grandfather, is something going on?"
"Go and show me the jade pei that brother Xi got today."
Xie Zhiwei nodded to Xuantao, Xuantao went out, and soon brought the jade pei, Xie Zhiwei took it and handed it to his grandfather.
Xie Tiao looked at the front and back, sighed, and returned the jade pei to Xie Zhiwei, "Do you know the origin of this jade pei?"
Xie Zhiwei gave Yu Pei to Xuantao, "Go and return it to Brother Xi, look at him, I don't need anyone to serve me here."
Xuantao knew that the old lady had something to say to the girl. After she went out, she beckoned and took away the two maids at the door, far away from Xie Zhiwei. with.
"The granddaughter doesn't know, is there something wrong with this jade pei?"
Today, on the riverside, Prince Xiang involuntarily tore off the Chilong jade pendant he was wearing and gave it to Brother Xi. Xie Zhiwei was shocked to realize that there was a mystery in this matter, but the identity of Prince Xiang was there. The gift is irresistible, and the grandfather didn't say anything, so it wasn't her turn to make irresponsible remarks.
In this way, this jade pei is really wrong.
"At that time, a piece of fine jade was offered as a tribute in Yunnan. The late emperor asked the Yinzuo Bureau to dig out a total of thirteen jade pendants from this piece of jade, all of which were carved with dragons. The late emperor gave these thirteen pieces of jade pendants to the princes respectively. , its intention is very obvious, it is to tell them that the princes are all brothers, born of the same father. Although later, the jade pei was lost in various places, but after all, it was a reward from the first emperor. A piece of jade pei never left him, and today he suddenly gave it to brother Xi, and grandfather was thinking, why?"
Xie Zhiwei had an answer in her heart, but she couldn't say this, so she lowered her head.
Xie Tiao heaved a sigh of relief, his granddaughter is smart, and it doesn't take much effort to talk to smart people.
"Sister Wei, what do you think?"
What does she think? She has been avoiding this question, and she doesn't want to spend her mind on this kind of thing. In her previous life, it was better to have no husband than to have a husband. A husband and wife are not like a husband and wife. In the end, her family was ruined and her family was ransacked.
But it is impossible for her not to marry in this life. There are three younger sisters behind her. If she stays at home as an old girl, won't she ruin the reputation of the Xie family and tarnish the lintel of the Xie family. There will be people who say anything.
If it was another girl, I am afraid that at this time, I will say "the parents ordered the matchmaker to say, I will listen to the grandfather", this sentence, Xie Zhiwei will never say it again.
"Grandfather, my granddaughter thinks, as long as I don't enter the royal family, no matter what kind of marriage I choose in the future, with my current status and the Xie family, I will be honored for the rest of my life and have no worries about food and clothing."
Xie Tiao didn't expect his granddaughter to be so transparent, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Grandfather understands."
The next day, Xie Zhiwei took his younger brothers and sisters to visit Zhuxian Lake. They went to the largest island. Taohuawu was full of peach trees. It was the spring season, and the peach blossoms were in full bloom. People are intoxicated.
Xie Tiao took a big boat to serve the emperor and came to Taohuawu. The two groups met in the largest restaurant. Xie Zhiwei led his younger brothers and sisters to salute. Seeing Wanyan Zongwang and others, he couldn't help being surprised.
"Princess, we met again. Yesterday I was still saying that we owe the princess a life. We will never forget the great kindness of the princess!" Wanyan Zongwang saluted Xie Zhiwei.
Xiao Changxuan smiled and said, "The Second Marshal is really astute, and now everyone outside says that Princess Duanxian is a pearl of my Dayong, the supreme treasure!"
Xie Zhiwei was vigilant, what did Xiao Changxuan mean by that?
She couldn't help laughing, "Your Highness is joking, there are so many princesses in the palace, how could it be Duan Xian's turn for the Dayong Pearl. Everything Duan Xian did was just to repay the emperor and empress."
Xie Zhiwei was extremely humble, the emperor was very satisfied, and glanced at Xiao Changxuan in dissatisfaction, but Wanyan Zongwang seemed to understand something, and took a deep look at Xie Zhiwei.
Lu Yan stood in the peach blossom forest, like the emperor of Yaochi, with charming eyebrows and picturesque face, even more beautiful than the peach blossoms in these three springs.
Seeing the emperor walking towards the restaurant, he hurriedly followed, but no one noticed him, like an invisible person.
"oops!"
With an exclamation, the emperor quickly turned around, only to see Wanyan Baoxian, who was following behind, tilted his body and fell down the steps. At this moment, a hand stretched out to help Wanyan Baoxian. a handful.
Wan Yanbao saw that it was Xiao Changxuan, and thanked him hurriedly.
"Efforts without raising one's hand are nothing to worry about. When the third princess is walking, be careful. If she really falls, it will be a disaster." Xiao Changxuan bowed his hands dignifiedly and politely.
He saw with his own eyes that Xiao Xun's toes lightly touched Wanyan Baoxian's calf, and Wanyan Baoxian suddenly lost his balance and fell over. Xiao Changxuan didn't want to make a move at first, but thought that this was someone who had made friends with Lou Guo Good opportunity, why not seize it?
Wanyan Baoxian also felt that there was something wrong with her calves, which made her unsteady for a while, but just now, the people walking beside her were Uncle Wang and Brother Wang. Could it be that they accidentally touched her?
Wanyan Baoxian didn't think much, followed the crowd into the restaurant, but what she didn't know was that this scene was in the eyes of everyone.
In the restaurant, because there were too many people, they sat separately. Since the emperor was visiting in private, he tried not to pay attention to pomp and circumstance. He only found a seat by the window in the lobby on the second floor and sat down, talking and admiring the lake. scenery.
The third update!
