Chapter 138 Confusion
Rong Chenghan is only nineteen years old this year. He is the legitimate son of King Yongjing. He has made great military exploits. He is the commander of the Haizhou Guard and has been granted the seal of general. After returning to Beijing, he received generous rewards and gained the favor of the emperor. If
Compared with Han Qing, Rong Chenghan seems to be more qualified to be chosen as a good son-in-law.
However, this is not the case.
For example, among the young girls who came to the eldest princess's mansion today, their eyes were all focused on Han Qing, but no girl would consider Rong Chenghan. There was naturally a reason for this.
Although Rong Chenghan is the legitimate son of King Yongjing, he is not the eldest son, so he cannot inherit the title. His future depends on his own efforts. Although he has great military achievements, this dynasty emphasizes literature over military affairs. Even if they are of the same rank, civil servants are not
He was much more noble than a military attache. After returning to Beijing, although Rong Chenghan received many rewards, he was not assigned an official position.
As for Han Qing, although he is young and flashy and has no talent or military skills, he is the heir apparent of the Marquis Mansion and will be a stable Marquis in the future, and this Marquis can be passed down to the next generation.
There is another reason, which may be what these girls' families consider the most. Although the war in the north has temporarily subsided, no one knows when the war will break out again. Rong Chenghan returned to Beijing and received a heavy reward, but was not assigned an official position.
.This is a signal in the eyes of everyone. Rong Chenghan just returned to Beijing for some repairs, and will soon be sent to the north to guard the border.
And once Rong Chenghan leaves, he doesn’t know how long he will have to go. If there is another war in the north, it is unknown whether Rong Chenghan will be able to come back alive. Which family is willing for their girls to endure such suffering and take such risks?
That.
Since Rong Chenghan came to Beijing, he has been wearing his unfashionable beard, which seems to have confirmed everyone's suspicion. Therefore, although there are also rumors in Prince Yongjing's palace that Rong Chenghan is going to
Marrying a wife, but very few responded, far less popular than the eldest princess.
Mrs. Chu, Dingyuan Bo's wife, is a well-rounded woman. Mrs. Chu knows almost all the anecdotes of every family in the capital. Mrs. Chu and Mrs. Su are also very close. Miss Wei Jiu was so frightened when she saw Rong Chenghan today, and she
There is no reason to talk about Liu Cheng's family affairs. The reason is just that Su and Chu met by chance. They talked about their children and their marriage, and Su seemed to like Miss Wei Jiu quite a lot.
Mrs. Chu and Miss Wei Jiu were both frightened.
Miss Wei Jiu behaved so obviously today. On the one hand, she showed her true feelings, and on the other hand, she also meant to show off to others. She was so frightened when she saw Rong Chenghan. No matter how much Mr. Su fell in love with her, he could not open his mouth to her family again.
I beg to marry her.
"What are you talking about? You're so happy to say it." Su Qingnuan's voice pulled Liu Ruosi out of her thoughts. Liu Ruosi raised her head and saw Su Qingnuan walking over at some point.
"I didn't say anything." Miss Wei Jiu said immediately. The Rong Chenghan mentioned just now is Su Qingnuan's cousin. Naturally, it is not easy for Su Qingnuan to know. "Miss Liu San and I both think the rockery over there is very interesting.
momentum."
"That's what I said." Su Qingnuan smiled and said, "Come here, there is something better here."
While Su Qingnuan was talking, she only pulled Liu Ruosi and walked towards the other side of the pavilion. When the people waiting were far away, Su Qingnuan stopped, pointed to the scenery in the garden and said a few words,
Su Qingnuan looked at Liu Ruosi with a smile.
"My third brother is studying at my sister's house, so I have to work hard for my sister."
"Miss Qi is too polite." Liu Ruosi said, and Su Qingnuan actually took the initiative to mention Rong Chenghan. "Study with my father, but you have to work for me."
"Haha," Su Qingnuan laughed, as if she had thought of something funny, "Look at the way the third brother is now, you would never imagine that he was different when he was a child... he was the most naughty and refused to study.
Every day when he went to Zongxue, he was beaten. When he came home, he refused to do his homework. Although his aunt was reluctant to beat him, his uncle was often very angry. She wanted to beat him... Although he didn't like studying, he followed the prince's family.
I am a very serious teacher in terms of my skills."
"...Every time I see him, he almost looks like a mud monkey..."
Speaking of this, Su Qingnuan seemed to think of that time and the beautiful things in that time, and her eyes drifted away.
Su Qingnuan seemed to like to talk about Rong Chenghan's childhood, especially in front of her. She always inadvertently revealed her closeness with Rong Chenghan. This was the case in the past life, and it is the same in this life. She had already done it at that time in the previous life
Rong Chenghan's wife, Su Qingnuan, said in front of her that Rong Chenghan still had feelings for each other. However, at this moment, she and Rong Chenghan were only slightly better than strangers, but Su Qingnuan pulled her to say this about Rong Chenghan.
Su Qingnuan has not changed, but Liu Ruosi is no longer the same Liu Ruosi.
That Liu Ruosi, whenever Su Qingnuan talked about Rong Chenghan's childhood, she would want to hear it very much, but she would be very entangled. She wanted to know about Rong Chenghan's past and everything about Rong Chenghan, but when she saw Su Qingnuan everywhere, she always wanted to know.
The intimacy with Rong Chenghan revealed was tortured. Whenever Liu Ruosi felt the most tortured, it was often the sweetest, most cordial and innocent time when Su Qing smiled warmly. At this time, Liu Ruosi
Ruosi also suffered double torture. She felt that she was too careless and should not think about Su Qingnuan like that. Su Qingnuan was too beautiful, but she was too petty.
Now Liu Ruosi no longer feels tortured by this, she is just a little annoyed.
Seemingly inadvertently, Liu Ruosi shook off Su Qingnuan's hand, raised her head to cover her mouth, and yawned slightly.
"Sorry, I was a little distracted just now. What did Miss Qi say?" Liu Ruosi asked Su Qingnuan politely.
Su Qingnuan couldn't help but feel a little dumb. She and Liu Ruosi had just met. In her eyes, although Liu Ruosi had a beautiful appearance, he seemed not smart and could not speak. However, in her eyes, Liu Ruosi was like this.
Liu Ruosi, who was very clumsy, spoke softly and deftly, but it always made her heartbroken and speechless.
Sure enough, it was because he was stupid and couldn't speak. A flash of displeasure flashed in Su Qingnuan's heart, but she quickly put it aside. Liu Ruosi is such a stupid person, and she can't make the same mistake as Liu Ruosi
Calculate.
"...I'm talking about the third brother." Su Qingnuan smiled and said, "Just now, when the girl from the Wei family saw the third brother, she was so frightened. To be honest with my sister, the third brother just came back. I heard the news and rushed back to see him all night.
He almost shocked me when we first met him. My third brother was not like this when he was a child."
"I heard this," Liu Ruosi also smiled, "The seventh girl said something about the big horse monkey, and it turned out to be this one."
"Yes, yes." Seeing Liu Ruosi's happy smile, Su Qingnuan paused for a moment and then started laughing too.
Just as they were talking, servants from the Hou Mansion came up below and said that a banquet had been held in the flower hall. The eldest princess asked the girls to hurry over. Then everyone got down from the pavilion and walked to the flower hall.
"...What did she say when she pulled the third sister and smiled so happily?" Liu Ruoshan and Liu Ruosi were walking side by side. She glanced at Su Qingnuan in front of her and asked Liu Ruosi.
"What else can I say, talk about her third brother." Liu Ruosi also glanced at Su Qingnuan's back and whispered. Su Qingnuan would not do useless things, so in front of her, these three sentences
She kept talking to Rong Chenghan, so she had a purpose. Su Qingnuan was trying to find out her attitude towards Rong Chenghan.
However, she must have disappointed Su Qingnuan. Su Qingnuan must have gained nothing from her.
This person is really strange. Liu Ruosi glanced at Su Qingnuan again and thought to herself. If Su Qingnuan and Rong Chenghan are in love and want to marry Rong Chenghan, it can be said to be a very big deal.
It's an easy thing. Now, Rong Chenghan hasn't got engaged yet. Su Qingnuan only needs to give a little hint, and I believe that the elders of the two families are very willing to make it happen.
Oh, by the way, she almost forgot. Su Qingnuan and Rong Chenghan were not in love with each other. Rong Chenghan had liked Su Qingnuan since he was a child, but Su Qingnuan did not like Rong Chenghan.
At this time, although the Yongjing Palace had some talk of wanting to marry Rong Chenghan, it did not spread the word in a big way because of Rong Chenghan. Rong Chenghan is now making every effort to marry Su Qingnuan.
Thinking of this, Liu Ruosi sneered secretly. Rong Chenghan was considered a very sophisticated person. He liked Su Qingnuan so much, but he never showed it in front of others. He thought about marrying Su Qingnuan, but he still had so much free time.
, hanging out with his brothers all day long, going to her house to study with Mr. Liu Er, and always waiting for the emperor's call to discuss the situation ahead.
"Sister, where is your second aunt?" Liu Ruoshan asked suddenly.
Liu Ruosi was startled and turned around to look. Sure enough, she only saw the eldest sister and the girl from the Guan family walking behind her, but Liu Ruojuan was not there.
"I didn't know that the second aunt was not with the third and fourth aunts?" The eldest sister looked confused.
"Aren't you two together?" Liu Ruosi glanced around. All the girls who were in the pavilion were there, but Liu Ruojuan was not there. "Why are you missing?"
The eldest sister was a little flustered and felt embarrassed.
"I don't know, but after talking to Miss Guan, the second aunt walked away on her own," the eldest sister said.
"When did it happen? Where did you see her going?" Liu Ruosi asked again.
"While we were still in the attic, the third aunt went to talk to Miss Su Qi. The fourth aunt and Miss Wei Jiu also walked away. The second aunt said that she wanted to go downstairs to have a look and wouldn't let me follow." The eldest sister said.
Just now everyone came down from the pavilion. Liu Ruosi noticed for a moment that there was no one in the pavilion. So where did Liu Ruojuan go?
