Chapter 342
Xiahou Xuan walked along the Jianjiang River, passed Jinguan City, and then passed Cheguan City, and came to the door of Weijia Manor. As soon as the car stopped, a servant in green came up and reached out to open the car door.
A humble smile appeared on his face: "Xiahou Jun is here." As he said, he put the pedal hanging from the car behind him.
Xiahou Xuan nodded, got out of the car first, dusted his sleeves, and walked towards the gate. Behind him, Zhang Zun bowed his hands and looked at Zhang Xingcai carefully. Zhang Xingcai naturally lifted the hem of his clothes and jumped down.
He said in an old age: "Get down." Zhang Zun responded, jumped out of the car, and the two of them walked to chase Xiahou Xuan.
The three of them entered the door and went to the backyard. The backyard was quiet and there was no sound at all. Xiahou Xuan was very surprised. He looked around and then a gray-haired old servant hurried over and came to Xiahou Xuan.
After a careful look, he recognized who it was and quickly saluted and said, "Did Mrs. Xiahou come to see Mrs. Ru?"
Xiahou Xuan raised his eyebrows and looked a little ugly: "Madam Ru?"
The old servant smiled with a mouth with only a few teeth left, and bowed his hand and said, "Congratulations to Xiahou Jun, the wife just passed the message yesterday, saying that from now on, Ling Mei will be Mrs. Ru, the young master.
You can no longer be called Xiahou Girl. When Xiahou Jun comes to the door, he can receive courtesy from relatives and no longer treat him as an outsider."
Xiahou Xuan's face became ugly, and he was silent for a moment: "Where is the sister who is in charge now?"
"I went to pick mulberry with Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Deng."
"Picking mulberry?" Xiahou Xuan was really surprised. When did Xiahou Hui suffer such hardship? In the big summer, he actually went to pick mulberry?
"Yes, Mrs. Huang sent someone to invite Mrs. Zhang to pick mulberry together today, and Mrs. Zhang took all the female relatives in the mansion over."
Xiahou Xuan suddenly realized and couldn't help laughing. He looked at the sky, turned around and left. Zhang Zun and Zhang Xingcai were inexplicably followed. Xiahou Xuan went out and ordered to return to the city immediately.
Chengdu City is divided into two cities, big and small, big city is in the east and small city is in the west. Dacheng was originally the capital of the governor of Yizhou and the prefect of Shu County. Later, Liu Bei ascended the throne and became emperor, using the big city as the palace city, occupying the vast majority of the big city.
The area and the remaining space are limited. Even the prefect of Shu County moved to a small town. The families who originally lived in the big city moved out one after another, living outside the city, with only a very small part left.
People still live in the city, such as the Guan family and the Zhang family, and people like Zhuge Liang are not included.
The Zhang Mansion is near the palace, close to Chaoyang Gate, occupying a single area. The terrain and size are so good that only the Guan family who lives in Xuanming Gate can be compared. However, although the Zhang family has such a luxurious mansion, it is not
Lively. Zhang Fei died, and his eldest son Zhang Bao died before him. Now Zhang Shao has joined the army to fight and has not come back yet. The eldest daughter entered the palace and became the queen. It is rare to come back. The second daughter Zhang Xingcai and grandson Zhang Zun have reunited.
Xiahou Xuan went out to stroll, and only Mrs. Xiahou and his wife Ma were left at home to guard this large mansion. Although there were many servants, they all held their breath and did not dare to make loud noises. They even walked on tiptoe.
The toes look like a ghost house.
Xiahou Xuan, Zhang Xingcai and Zhang Zun came in, and the laughter of the two children broke the suffocating silence, and only in this huge house had a little popularity.
Mrs. Xiahou was wearing a white Zen robe and walked out of the inner room, holding the door frame, looking at her daughter and grandson jumping in, showing a kind smile. She was about 40 years old, and her face was like a disc. Her skin was white and covered with white hair and was simply tied behind her head. Behind her, Zhang Bao's widow Ma stood quietly outside the door, revealing a melancholy side face.
"My mother--" Zhang Xingcai rushed into Mrs. Xiahou's arms, raised her neck, and said happily: "My mother, I'm going to see someone Zhujin again today."
Mrs. Xiahou pinched her nose intimately: "You can only see, you can't think, you can't hear?"
When she heard this, the smile on Zhang Xingcai's face disappeared. She let go of Mrs. Xiahou and muttered, "I'm going to see my sister."
"No," Mrs. Xiahou lowered her face: "That's the palace. Do you think it's your own home, so go if you want to?"
Zhang Xingcai was scolded and became even more irritable. He twisted his waist and ran away. Ma also led Zhang Zun to say goodbye. Mrs. Xiahou waved her hand and signaled them to let go. She turned to Xiahou Xuan and said, "Taichu, what's going on today?"
Xiahou Xuan smiled bitterly and was defeated by the Prime Minister's Mansion. When he went to the Wei family, he learned that Xiahou Hui was called Mrs. Ru, and he also told him about the fact that he went to pick mulberry trees with Mrs. Zhang and others. After hearing this, Mrs. Xiahou smiled faintly. : "The Prime Minister is really a good method, both internal and external, and both soft and hard."
Xiahou Xuan nodded silently: "Aunt, what should I do? Under the pressure of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Mrs. Zhang decided Yuanrong's identity first. We cannot implement the plan to marry a marriage."
Mrs. Xiahou glanced at him: "Just, this position is so important? I don't have a position, haven't I lived for so many years?"
Xiahou Xuan pulled the corner of his mouth and said nothing. He disagreed with Mrs. Xiahou's opinion, but he couldn't bear to stimulate this poor woman.
Mrs. Xiahou thought for a long time and continued, "Wei Ba is a rising star among the people of Jingxiang and has made many great contributions. Prime Minister Zhuge will not attack him for no reason. The reason for doing this is nothing more than to cut off your thoughts. Rong said, this is not a good thing. If you men fight, just fight. Don’t involve us women. Let Yuanrong live a peaceful life, which is better than anything else. As you said, the marriage between Yuanrong and Sima Shi is here. The end, maybe it was God's pity for her. Since that's the case, what's wrong with being Mrs. Ru of Wei Ba?"
Xiahou Xuan frowned and remained silent. When Mrs. Xiahou saw it, her heart softened and sighed helplessly: "If you must win back this game, there is only one way to go and find His Majesty the Emperor, and he will preside over it. But I Let me tell you in advance that even the Emperor may not be able to change the Prime Minister’s decision, so don’t expect too much, you can only try your best.”
Xiahou Xuan nodded: "When can I arrange it?"
"I'll do it as soon as possible."
"Thank you aunt."
...
After Xiahou Xuan set out from Xiangyang, he arrived in Yong'an first. Zhuge Liang was still in Yong'an at that time, but Xiahou Xuan did not meet Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang refused to meet him on the grounds of busy military affairs and asked him to rush to Chengdu to meet His Majesty the Emperor. He had to rush first When he arrived in Chengdu, but for some reason, Liu Chan never saw him, and he had no reason, but he just didn't see him. Xiahou Xuan had no choice but to ask Mrs. Xiahou to come forward, but Mrs. Xiahou was unwilling to get involved in this matter. He didn't let go, so that he had been in Chengdu for nearly a month and had nothing done.
Today, Xiahou Xuan came to beg her again, but in fact he didn't have any hope, especially when he heard her say that it would be no difference to be a wife, now that Mrs. Xiahou suddenly agreed to mediate, he was really overjoyed.
Mrs. Xiahou acted decisively and once she made a decision, she immediately took action. She did not go into the palace to invite the queen immediately, but came to the Wu family in person to pay homage to Wu Yi's wife, and handed it to the Empress Dowager Wu through Wu Yi's wife.
In this sentence, I expressed my intention to go to the palace to meet the queen to relieve my family. This time, Wu Yi led his troops to fight and obtained the help of Wei Ba and made great contributions. Zhang Shao, as a subordinate of Wu Yi, also had the help of help.
The Wu family was originally grateful to the Wei family and the Zhang family. Now the matter involves the Wei and Zhang families, so the Wu family cannot ignore it.
The matter was completed soon. The next day, an edict came from the palace. Empress Zhang missed her family, and Mrs. Xuan Xiahou and others entered the palace to visit. Xiahou Xuan Xuan was also invited. After the edict was issued, Mrs. Xiahou immediately brought her family in.
In the palace, Xiahou Xuan also walked into the palace. However, his identity was not an envoy of the Wei Kingdom, but the queen's distant cousin.
Xiahou Xuan knew very well that this entry into the palace might be his only chance, and it was of great importance, so he did not dare to neglect any, so he made sufficient preparations. When he entered the palace, he wore a Jinxian crown on his head, a plain white silk dress, and a face full of
Wearing thin pink, her lips are red and her teeth are white, she is very handsome, and her every move is elegant, as if she is like an immortal. Zhang Xingcai applauded as soon as she saw it, holding Xiahou Xuan's hand from beginning to end, as if Xiahou Xuan was her forbidden body, any
No one is allowed to get involved.
Xiahou Xuan's preparation was not in vain. Although Zhuge Liang made corresponding arrangements after receiving the news that Xiahou Xuan was about to enter the palace, Liu Chan couldn't help but fall in love with Xiahou Xuan. He ignored the repeated reminders of the Shizhong Dong Yun,
Regardless of Zhang Xingcai's cold face, he pulled Xiahou Xuan and chatted. Under Xiahou Xuan's deliberate flattery, Liu Chan was very happy and ordered a banquet to be given, and he wanted to drink with the queen's family.
Dong Yun saw it and was anxious, but there was nothing to think about. Although he was ranked as the chief minister's trusted background, he was the general of the Hu Ben and commanded the guards in the palace, it can be said that
He can decide whether it is a matter of big or small in the palace alone. But His Majesty the Emperor wants to invite the Queen's family to dinner, so he can't stop him too.
Just as Dong Yun was worried, Xiahou Xuan finally mentioned Xiahou Hui on a topic and mentioned the marriage of marriage. Liu Chan had no reaction to the Han and Wei ties mentioned by Xiahou Xuan, but asked: "Since Xiahou Junfeng
God is like this, I believe Ling Mei must be a rare beauty, right?"
Xiahou Xuan said modestly: "How dare you call a beauty if you give up your sister Pu Liu's gift?"
Dong Yun felt aroused in his heart and blurted out: "Your Majesty said so much. Miss Xiahou is indeed extraordinary. Not only that, she also has extraordinary wisdom, and is a rare woman with both talent and beauty."
After hearing this, Xiahou Xuan felt a little sad. Before he could stop him, Liu Chan smiled and said, "Is there such a strange woman in the world? Then I have to take a look. The person comes, and I will pass on the imperial edict.
, Miss Xuanxiahou entered the palace... Well, meet the queen."
"Yes!" Dong Yun turned around and went to pass the imperial edict.
