Chapter 96
Miantang had met the Princess Sui before, and she felt a little embarrassed when she thought of her reputation.
But now the two kings are fighting each other, not a conflict between the streets and neighbors, but can turn swords into jade and silk.
King Sui intended to kill the Huaiyang Palace.
Under the premise that King Sui used his hand to smash and burn the Huaiyang Palace and almost kidnapped her and the concubine. The King of Huaiyang was willing to let Princess Sui and the prince go back, which was already particularly generous.
How can you be finished in the end? Whether it is the wife of King Sui or the princess who is about to become the princess of Huaiyang, she must be involved in the disputes between the government and the government.
Today is Princess Sui, and it’s hard to say whether it will be her tomorrow. @南六国家官网, all in Jinjiang Literature City
But after sighing about Princess Sui's unfortunate encounter, it was a bit hard to describe when it was the turn of Lian's cousin.
After the concubine went to visit her sister, she fell seriously ill when she came back.
It is said that when Lian Chu saw his daughter's consciousness was reversed, she cried so hard that her eyes were roaring, and she said that her family was implicated by the King of Huaiyang and suffered such a disaster.
Now her old woman is humiliated, but her daughter's reputation has been damaged and she has become like this again. How can she live?
Lian Chu's good verbal skills are so weak that he can only talk about the concubine and ask the concubine to take care of Lian Qilan, and there are a lot of food in the royal palace. Otherwise, the mother and daughter will hang themselves in front of the Huai Prince's Mansion on the day the prince got married.
In the past few days, not only the Lian family, but also the elders of the Cui family have come to mediate, only to persuade the concubine to make the decision and ask the King of Huaiyang to take Lian Qilan as his concubine. Otherwise, Lian Qilan would have been so clamoring in the street market that day, so people thought that the Cui family had abandoned them all the time, and harmed the daughter of the Lian family, but refused to take responsibility.
If such a thing is spread, the Cui family's reputation will be ruined.
After Miantang's life these days, Concubine Chu became more transparent when she saw things. Although her niece Lian Qilan's experience was pitiful, she could not blame others.
When Miantang repeatedly told them to find a remote village to live in seclusion, but they were going to pass the barrier, and they almost exposed Miantang and her. It was really a pity for a poor person.
Besides, when Lian Qilan got off the carriage like that day, his reputation was already defiled. If he became his son's concubine like this, would it be that the Huaiyang Palace was in rags?
Concubine Chu felt depressed for a moment, so she reduced the number of times she visited Lian Chu, and only found Lai Miantang to vomit bitter water.
Miantang felt that she was not easy to interrupt, so she listened quietly to the concubine's remarks while listening to the concubine's remarks. The concubine said for a long time but Miantang said, and she pushed the teacup in a hurry and said, "Tell me, what should I do!"
Seeing that he couldn't get through, Miantang asked, "Did the Concubine tell the prince? What did the prince say?"
Thinking of his son's stubborn answer, the concubine became even more angry: "What serious can he say? He said he wanted to send someone to ask, the mother and daughter of the Lian family are sure. If it is sure, he will prepare two coffins at the door, and wait for someone to die, and it will be filled in hot!"
Miantang couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
These days, Cui Xingzhou received the envoys from the court, so she was busy with official duties. She happened to go to Lingquan Town to rectify the four brothers, and she would not be allowed to see the prince.
But in my heart, Miantang was also afraid, because Cui Xingzhou was unforgettable to remember his cousin's old love, and even more afraid that he would really accept cousin Lian by being under the pressure of the concubine.
Although the expanded royal palace is large, it cannot tolerate the mistress except her. Miantang is so petty. His beloved man is unwilling to share with others.
But on the other hand, she hopes that such a chaos will happen, so that she can give herself a legitimate excuse to completely convince herself to leave without worries, and avoid the day when her own story is revealed and Lu Wen’s identity is exposed.
This entangled mood was twisted together, which made Miantang turn a blind eye to the Lian family’s mother and daughter’s quarrel about entering the Cui family, and let it develop, to see what Cui Xingzhou’s choice would be like.
However, after hearing Cui Xingzhou's words, the friendship between cousins seemed to have ended.
Seeing that Miantang was still in a state of laughter, the concubine immediately became anxious: "My son is not caring enough, and you, a daughter-in-law, should also make a joke! You told Xingzhou that if you prepare a coffin that day, just put me in burial too. Once I close my eyes, I will be disgusted without seeing you!"
Miantang used a bamboo knife to cut the newly-baked brushed sweet cakes and handed them to the concubine, then slowly said: "Aunt Lian means that he is afraid that his daughter will not get married soon? Find someone who doesn't dislike her to marry. Just make an extra dowry in our palace."
Concubine Chu's eyes lit up: "You are right! Why didn't I expect it before?"
Mian Tang smiled slightly: "The concubine is soft-minded. She was just spared by Aunt Lian before. She only thought about whether the prince should accept it or not, but never thought about anything else."
Concubine Chu thought about it and sighed again: "But now that Lian Qilan's affairs are spread everywhere, who is willing to do it for good people? But if it is an ordinary family, my sister who is above the top will not look down on me!"
At this moment, the servants in the corridor came to report that Qin came to greet the concubine.
The concubine frowned: "I asked her if she had something to do, but if she had nothing to do, she would kneel down and go."
The servant took the order out to inquire, and after a while, he said, "Qin brought the fifth master with him, saying that he was asking for advice from the fifth master's marriage."
Such a thing is indeed a serious matter. Concubine Chu was not easy to refuse, so she allowed Qin to come in.
Speaking of which, Miantang has been in Zhenzhou for so long, but the generals have not seen this fifth master several times. Because of his disability, he has always lived in simplicity.

So there are even rumors that Cui Xingzhou's brothers were killed by him, and it is said that Lao Wu, who is still alive, is just a cover-up.
Now Mian Tang looked at the person sitting in a wooden wheelchair carefully. Because he had not seen the sun for a long time, his skin was sickly white. His eyebrows and eyes were actually somewhat similar to Cui Xingzhou, both of which were thick eyebrows and straight noses. It is said that this was the same as the old prince.
However, the feet exposed under his long gown were extremely thin. They should have not moved for a long time and their muscles were weak.
As the mistress, the concubine is also regarded as the nominal mother of the fifth master Cui Xingdi, so she naturally has to care about her and greet her. She is safe in the near future.
The fifth master was very gentle and answered the concubine one by one.
After politely speaking, the concubine asked directly: "I just heard from someone report that she wanted to discuss Lao Wu's marriage with me. I don't know which girl he likes."
Qin glanced at his son, then quickly lowered his head and knelt down and said, "I have no choice but to teach my son, so I have caused a delusion. He...he wants to ask the lady of the Lian family..."
If such words were said earlier, it would be really delusional. Even if the daughter of the Lian family regretted marriage by the King of Huaiyang, she would not have to worry about marrying her older brother.
But now, the Lian family has such a bad thing. Lian Qilan is now suffering from hysteria. She is blinded and will not know when she will recover from Qingming Festival. In addition, her reputation has been damaged. Who would have such a serious and good family?
Moreover, the Lian family is only relying on the royal mansion, thinking about letting their daughter enter the royal mansion, and they have a clear reputation.
Since the king of Huaiyang, who was born, refused to ask Lian Qilan, it would be great if this illegitimate fifth brother was willing to take responsibility for his ninth brother!
Concubine Chu didn't think of the best of both worlds and came to her door automatically, and immediately looked at Miantang in surprise.
But Miantang raised his head and looked at the disabled fifth master.
Although he was a concubine's son, it was not difficult to marry a beautiful woman from a poor family with the reputation of the Huaiyang Palace.
Could it be that he lives in the royal palace and doesn’t know what Lian Qilan is currently in?
Cui Xingdi seemed to see Mian Tang's confusion and said softly: "Miss Lian is beautiful and wise, and is humble, which makes people unable to help but admire her. It's just that I'm disabled, and she had an engagement with her ninth brother before, so I dare not think about it, so I want to be alone and live a life of silence. But now, her reputation is damaged and her body is not strong. I have nothing to do, but I want to treat her sincerely and ask the concubine to fulfill her."
This is intriguing. From that point of view, Master Cui Wu actually had a crush on his old brother's fiancée for a long time, but he had been inferior and dared not express himself.
Now, I finally waited until Yiren fell into trouble, so I plucked up the courage to force my mother to propose marriage to her legitimate mother.
Concubine Chu felt that this was very good! The cripple and the madman were considered good matches. Didn’t the Lian family just shout that the Cui family’s royal family would give her daughter a bite of food? Then she gave up her family, see what else the Lian family would make to make trouble. @The unlimited good articles are all in Jinjiang Literature City
As a result, Qin and Lao Wu became the timely rain in the royal family, which made the Concubine Chu look at Qin, who was honest and flirting with him, and they were much more pleasing than usual.
For a moment, Concubine Chu encouraged Lao Wu with a kind face, only saying that his infatuation was moved by the world. She waited for Lao Jiu to return home and asked him to make a decision with the Lian family.
Cui Xingzhou did not have the ability to manage the trivial matters of the Lian family? Miantang was even more difficult to interfere. In the end, the King of Huaiyang found an elder in a clan to go to the Lian family and said he had gone to the Lian family.
Before the elder proposed marriage, Miantang reminded the doorman to keep a close eye on the door. The newly opened door of the royal mansion could no longer be smashed.
As expected, the Lian family came straight to the afternoon. Lian Hanshan and his son all looked bad and said they wanted to speak in person with the King of Huaiyang.
The King of Huaiyang happened to be in the royal palace that day, so he politely asked his uncle and cousin to enter the study.
As a result, an hour later, the father and son of the Lian family left the royal palace as if they were lost.
In the evening, the King of Huaiyang and his mother and Miantang had dinner together. Concubine Chu couldn't wait to ask about the result of the matter. While picking up food for Miantang, Cui Xingzhou said lightly: "The fifth brother is rare to speak. I naturally want to fulfill my wish as a younger brother. But if the Lian family refuses to appreciate it, I can't force the bull to lower the water. The powerful relationship between it is with them. It depends on his own choice."
Mian Tang understood it at first. The so-called powerful relationship is that if the Lian family agreed, Lian Qilan would become the sister-in-law of the concubine's brother, and she could barely be considered a family.
But if the Lian family thinks that the Cui family has looked down on them, then the few relatives left will end. In the future, the Lian family will not want to lean on the Cui family to enjoy the cool air, and they will stop contacting each other and will never interact with each other until they die.
According to Cui Xingzhou's thoughts, he hoped that the Lian family would choose the second one.
After dinner, Cui Xingzhou took Miantang to the newly built lake pond in the back garden to enjoy the lotus under the moon, the palace lanterns were hanging high, and fireflies were lit in the purple flowers around the lake.
Cui Xingzhou got two hollow glass balls the size of fingernails, so he bent down and hugged them with long sleeves, caught fireflies with gauze nets and put them in the ball, hung them on the golden hook, and made earrings for Miantang.
The pair flickered around their white earlobes, which was quite unique. Miantang took the bronze mirror handed over by his maid Huanxue and took a photo, and laughed and said, "Come and wear it for me to fool children!"
