Chapter 43 The matchmaker comes to the door
"My mother!" Chu Lingyuan's pretty face immediately showed great hatred, and she shook her head without thinking: "The little girl has become a monk and a nun, and she will not marry him! To be honest, this person is well-informed, quick-thinking, and amazingly capable, and is much stronger than the gentry of Jiankang. The little girl does not think that his family is inferior, and the Wang sisters do not think that he is not disgusted with him. Although the Wang family in Taiyuan has been barred by three tribes, her reputation is still there, and the identity of the Gaomen A clan has not been stripped of it. If there are talents in the future, it is not impossible to revive the family. Compared with the Wang family in Taiyuan, our Chu family lacks some background. How dare the little girl? But this person is too terrible!"
As he was talking, Chu Lingyuan couldn't help but tremble. Chu Shuang also felt the same and sighed: "Lingyuan is right. This person is very brave. If I am not careful, I, Chu, will be implicated. I am really not able to get involved. Well, let's not mention him anymore. While I have nothing to do, let's try to sort out the young Junyan of Jiankang and tell Lingyuan a marriage as soon as possible."
The Chu family is a gentry with a surname from overseas, so naturally they will not consider the gentry with Wu. The Wu family is in harmony and has no relatives since they have no marriage. The first thing they consider is the Wang family of Langya and the Xie family of Chenjun, which is the highest family, and the Long Kanghuan family started with military service. Although Mrs. Chu pointed out the importance of military power, in the general understanding of scholars, military families will not be in the elegant hall.
Everyone in the banquet was secretly moving their minds, but Chu Lingyuan's pretty face showed almost unpredictable anxiety. Getting married is the most hopeful and worried about her. Marrying someone means she can get rid of Wei Feng's shadow, but she has lost her Red Maple and is not a virgin. How should she get away with it on the wedding night?
The allusion of the demon queen of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Feiyan, pretending to be a virgin on the wedding night of Emperor Cheng of Han, immediately jumped into his heart. However, Chu Lingyuan only knew about this but did not know how to pretend. This made her so anxious that she smoked her throat. But this kind of thing was not convenient to ask people. Will it be all leaked after inquiring about it?
‘It seems that we can only try our best to arrange the wedding date in the menstrual period.’ Chu Lingyuan secretly made a small plan. Her absent-minded appearance was misread by the Chu people for shyness, so she was more careful to choose for her. For example, Xie Gongyi (Xie Lingyun), Xie Zhan, Xie Yao, Xie Mi, Wang Yu, Wang Liu, Wang Ru and other young Junyan who had not yet married appeared in the sea of consciousness.
"Father!" Chu Xiuzhi bowed: "Xie Lingyun is about the same age as his youngest sister. He was once respected by his uncle Xie Hun. He praised: The beauty of articles is beyond the reach of Jiang Zuo, and his poetry and calligraphy are unique. Every article is written by himself. He also describes it as handsome and extraordinary. He can be a good match for Lingyuan!"
Chu Lingyuan's carelessness couldn't help but become aware of Xie Lingyun, the sons and nephews of the Chen County Xie family, met her husband's standards in any aspect. However, losing the red pill became a thorn in her heart. Xie Lingyun was so outstanding that even though she was confused, she always felt that she was shorter and felt that she was not worthy of others.
Chu Shuang was immediately excited and was about to speak and say a few words, but from the corner of her eyes, she found a manager rushing to the sky. The manager called out from afar: "Master Lang, Huangmen Lang Kong Dao came to visit and was waiting in the hall!"
"Oh? My Chu family has never had any contact with him, the Kong family in Lu County, why did he do it?" Chu Shuang was stunned and ordered: "Sit down, let's talk about Lingyuan's marriage again. I'll go and see what happened first." As he said that, he left the table.
Chu Shuang had just taken two steps, and two guards in the distance followed him, which made him extremely frustrated. When Chu met outsiders, Wei Feng would arrange for people to monitor him, but what else could he do besides swallowing his breath?
Not long after, Chu Shuang came to the main hall. A middle-aged man was drinking tea on the ground. When he saw Chu Shuang stepping in, he immediately stood up and bowed and smiled, "Brother Hongmao (the character Chu Shuang's name is) is energetic and has a good temperament. I came from Jiankang, but I saw that Yixing was busy and busy, and the fields were busy. It can be seen that Brother Hongmao made the people good. It is really a blessing for Yixing, which is a joyful congratulation!"
Chu Shuang smiled bitterly, saying that this was all caused by Wei Feng, what does it have to do with him, but he couldn't explain it clearly, so he had to wave his hand indifferently: "Hongde (Kongdao's word for prose) is too much reward, but it's just the duty to take charge of one side, so what's the point? By the way, I don't know why Hongde came?"
"Brother Hongmao! I'm so happy!" Kong Dao bowed deeply: "I'm here to be happy for Brother Hongmao!"
"Oh?" Chu Shuang said in confusion: "Why is there?"
Kong Dao stroked his beard and laughed: "When King Langya (Sima Dewen) heard that Ling Ai was gentle and polite, beautiful and beautiful, and was very impressed by her for a while, so she asked her brother to be a Lu Zhonglian. She wanted to make a love between Ling Ai and Qin Jin, but I wonder what Brother Hongmao wanted?"
"This..." Chu Shuang frowned, and Kong Dao came to propose marriage. Even if it was not Xie Lingyun, but Wang Xie's other sons and nephews, and even other nobles such as Gaojia, could accept it, but King Sima Dewen of Langya... This made him think repeatedly in his heart.
Sima's wife had a good death, but not many. Emperor Xiaoyuan's wives were with him for half his life. In his old age, he was forced to live a life of fear and fear. Emperor Xiaoming's empress Yu Wenjun was also a young man who lost his husband. Later, he died of fear due to the rebellion of Su Jun and Zu Yue. There are also rumors that Emperor Xiaoming was Yu Wenjun and his elder brother Yu Liang conspired to kill him. This became the first unsolved case in the past century in the Great Jin Dynasty. The concubines of the other emperors were basically not happy. The only good one was his aunt Chu Suanzi. Although Chu Suanzi was named the Queen Mother of the Five Dynasties and was honored, he lost his husband at a young age. Who knows the joys and sorrows of the bitterness?
The Gao family's wife married Sima, and in her future life, she would have to live for this surname or die for this surname. This is an inevitable tragedy of the increasingly corrupt royal family. After all, Chu Shuang pampers this young girl very much. He hopes that Chu Lingyuan can find a good family to live an ordinary life, and he does not want to be pointed and thrust behind her back, saying that he betrayed his daughter's happiness in order to cling to the royal family.
Chu Shuang racked her brains and barely found a reason, so she rudes: "The King of Langya is only fourteen years old, and Lingyuan is two years older than him, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate."
"Hey~~What's wrong?" Kong Dao disagreed: "Let Ai be two years older than King Langya, and he can handle the affairs of the royal palace to make up for the lack of young King Langya. The King Langya is smart and polite, which is completely different from the current master. This is a good match for God! Moreover, there are many elder wives and young husbands in ancient times. Brother Hongmao should not let down the King Langya's wishes, ah? Hahaha~~"
When the ancients got married, the couple did not pay attention to whether it was suitable, but they had to be a good match. The King of Langya was the emperor's younger brother. Now, Chu Shuang could no longer find any reason and smiled helplessly: "What Hongde said is indeed a bit reasonable, but Brother Yu must discuss with Zhujing, so as not to tell her that she would make a marriage for Lingyuan. She was dissatisfied and nagged later. Please ask Hongde to take a break, and Brother Yu went to the inner house and returned!"
"Oh?" Kong Dao interpreted Chu Shuang's performance as a fear of the inner world. These days, many Gaomen's gentry are afraid of the inner world, mainly because of their weak personality or their first wife's strong family. There are many other reasons. There are many things that are not worthy of being told by outsiders. Then he smiled with understanding: "Brother Hongmao, it's okay to go, so I'll be waiting for the good news!"
"Goodbye!" Chu Shuang bowed and walked out.
Following Chu Shuang's two guards looked at each other, and they nodded. One of them turned around and left. Chu Shuang didn't take it seriously. After all, she was a normal marriage to a daughter. No matter how arrogant Wei Feng was, she couldn't interfere with it, right?
Not long after, Chu Shuang returned to the small garden, frowned slightly, and looked worried. Mrs. Chu couldn't help but ask, "Chu Lang, why is Kong Dao Xun you?" The others also turned their eyes.
Chu Shuang sat on the ground, stroked her beard and sighed: "You just happened to make a total of the total. Kong Dao came for the matchmaker of the King of Langya."
In an instant, everyone's expressions were as colorful as a blown dye vat. In the eyes of Chu Xiuzhi and Chu Yuzhi, Sima Dewen's conditions were much better than Xie Lingyun, but Chu Yanzhi showed signs of worry, while Mrs. Chu and Chu Lingyuan both buried their heads in thinking.
Chu Xiuzhi followed and said, "Just just discussed the lifelong affairs of the youngest sister, the King of Langya came to propose marriage. It was really God's favor. Back then, my grandmother (Chu Suanzi) was the princess of the six palaces who were the most powerful palaces. My son thought that this was the cycle of heaven and the great blessings of heaven were patronized by our Chu family again. What's more, the master of the present is comparable to Emperor Hui, who is speechless and unable to distinguish between hunger and cold. The king of Langya has been smart since he was a child. He has already attacked the title of Prince Langya when he was four years old. He asked his father to fight with his mother Shu'er to say something that was against the taboo. If the master had a three-length and two-two-shortness, the position of the youngest sister would not be out of reach!"
Chu Yuzhi also nodded repeatedly. Since the Han Dynasty, the descendants and relatives of the foreigners have been listed as fiefs, and it is no longer ordinary that the power of the court and the country is so powerful. For example, the great-grandfather Chu Li has become famous by his aunt Chu Suanzi. As history is about to repeat itself, how can we not be excited?
Chu Yuzhi said in conjunction with him: "Now the gentry is in decline, and it is not easy to find a marriage. The political situation is often turbulent, and every time the power changes, it is accompanied by bloody purges. The noble bloodline of the scholars has almost been strangled in the struggle. The circle of old-fashioned gentry is shrinking, and speculative upstarts lack the foundation. I don't know when I can be proud of it!
The sons of Jiankang Shi family are mostly robbers and smearing people. Although Xie Gongyi is a few of them, he is white and has become famous by poetry and books. If he rejects the King of Langya this time, it will not be so easy to find a good husband with a similar family background and appearance for his youngest sister. If he refuses the royal family, he will have offended the Sima family invisibly. Who else in the world dares to take his youngest sister as his wife?"
As soon as these words were said, including Chu Lingyuan himself, Wei Feng's figure appeared involuntarily in the minds of everyone. With this person's bold and unrestrained style of doing things, how could he be afraid of a Sima vassal king? Then they all kept their minds tightly and forced this idea.
