Gu Nanxi thought about it and decided to put some pressure on these two people.
She wrote a letter to Wen Yu, asking directly what she thought about her marriage. If she found someone she liked, she would be willing to arrange a marriage for them.
Out of selfishness, and also to give Su Xuanming some points, Gu Nanxi wrote, "Our family is not a pedantic one. If the women in our family are willing to go out and start a career, we will never stop them, but only support them."
After writing the letter, Gu Nanxi wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with Su Xuanming, with the theme of [Good girls are rare, so you have to strike first]. Wen Yu is a rare good girl.
However, after learning that a female relative had brought a young girl to the mansion, this brat Su Xuanming did not even return to the mansion and slept directly in the Jinyiwei's office.
This action made Gu Nanxi so angry that she fell backwards.
Come on, the emperor is not anxious, but the eunuch is. Wait until Wen Yu finds a good husband, and let Su Xuanming regret it!
…
On the other hand, after Mrs. Chen returned home, she refused to see anyone and went into the room, lying on the quilt and crying.
Lord Chen, who had just returned from his shift, walked in and asked softly, "What happened? Didn't you say you were going to visit Duke Yun? Didn't you see him?"
The more Mrs. Chen thought about it, the sadder she became. She sat up straight, wiped her tears and complained, "It's better not to get married! At the beginning, you kept it a secret from me and went to Yunzhou to organize a wedding for them, and even spent most of your family wealth. What did I say? Did I say nothing?"
"Yes. I was wrong in this matter." Shuyao had a bad relationship with her, so Lord Chen thought more about it and didn't want to create any extra trouble.
Unexpectedly, she was quite generous in this matter.
Madam Chen cried again, "Because Shuyao married Su Erlang, even though we announced to the public that she was driven out of the house, has your official position been demoted over the years? Have the families we used to be close to become distant from us? Has the business in the shop been getting worse day by day?"
"yes."
But Shu Yao is his own flesh and blood. As a father, can't he even withstand such a little bit of hardship?
Mrs. Chen burst into tears: "You are a good father, but you are not just her daughter. You have to think about our son! Besides, you have done enough for her."
"Everyone thinks that we have benefited greatly from Duke Yun. But what is the truth? In previous years, transportation was inconvenient, and the annual festival gifts were given secretly, with gold and silver given casually. Compared with what we have gained, we have been implicated more."
"Shh. Keep your voice down. If this gets out, it will make Shuyao feel awkward."
Mrs. Chen was indignant, but she lowered her voice: "I see that gentleman doesn't even consider us as real relatives!"
Mr. Chen advised: "Don't treat her as your mother-in-law, treat her as the emperor. Your child is married into the royal family, do you really expect the emperor to take care of you in everything?"
"But she is a woman. In the future, won't this kingdom be given to her son?"
"That's not necessarily true." Lord Chen muttered in a low voice.
The Duke of Yun even dared to plot to kill her own husband, so what wouldn't she dare to do?
"snort!"
"What happened today that made you drop gold beans?"
"I was kind-hearted and took my niece to visit. One of her maids gave me a good meal."
Master Chen frowned: "If you are going, then go. Why bring your niece with you?"
"Isn't it because Shuyao hasn't had a child for such a long time? Instead of letting others stuff women into the backyard, it's better to find a relative, and the two sisters will help each other in the future."
Mr. Chen's heart sank, his face turned dark blue, and he pointed at Madam Chen with his finger trembling for a long time: "You, you! You are really going to piss me off to death!"
The timing is sensitive now. Although Kyoto appears calm on the surface, it is actually undercurrents.
The marriage between Su Dalang and Su Erlang involves serious matters, and no one wants to be the first to take action.
But this silly woman of mine would rush forward when she was instigated by someone.
Su Erlang had already said that he would only marry Shuyao in this life.
When they return to Kyoto in the future and face the various forces who try to stuff their women into their pockets, they will have an excuse to refuse.
But today, my wife did this and others can use her as a scapegoat.
Look, the mother-in-law is personally stuffing people in.
"Oh, it's really... Oh! I'm so angry!" Lord Chen turned around and left.
How can this be salvaged?
My wife doesn't have that kind of brains, nor does she have that kind of heart. She and Shuyao just keep to themselves and treat each other with respect.
There must be someone behind this idea.
Mr. Chen is not a quick-witted person, but he has one advantage: when he encounters something he doesn't know how to do, he knows to find someone who knows how to do it.
So, he decided to find Su Xuanming!
Su Xuanming is a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and is well-informed. He is also the elder brother of his son-in-law and they have a deep brotherly love. I believe he will not ignore this matter.
Lord Chen invited Su Xuanming to the Eight Immortals Tower for a drink.
Su Xuanming didn't understand why, but he still went to the appointment.
After drinking two or three cups, Lord Chen recounted what had happened and looked at Su Xuanming eagerly.
Su Xuanming was numb.
My brother's mother-in-law wanted to take a concubine for him, but his own mother rejected it. Now his brother's father-in-law came to ask me what to do about this matter.
Oh my God!
He doesn't know what to do either.
He didn't even have a future father-in-law or mother-in-law. Nothing like this had ever happened in Yongchang Marquis's Mansion before.
"Then, then I'll tell you, Auntie, that you don't mean that?"
"Yes, yes, yes! That's not what I meant!" Lord Chen nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
Su Xuanming and Lord Chen stared at each other for a moment, then hesitated and said, "Let me check again, who is behind this?"
"Okay! I'll leave everything to Dalang."
Su Xuanming wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Dealing with relatives is really difficult.
The two looked at each other in silence.
Lord Chen, that's it? That's it?
Su Xuanming, huh? Isn't that enough? What else do you want to do?
Fortunately, someone broke the damn silence: "Da Lang, it's bad! Something big has happened in the area you are responsible for."
Su Xuanming's head buzzed, and he said viciously, "Where's Gou'er?! I asked him to replace Gousheng as the boss, how did he do things?"
"Hey, stop showing off, this matter is really going to get blown up."
"So serious?" Su Xuanming's face darkened.
Lord Chen said goodbye tactfully. The more he knew, the faster he would die. He didn't want to hear any more of these things.
When there were no outsiders in the room, another Jinyiwei said very quickly: "The belongings of the Gaochang Three Kingdoms envoys were stolen."
Su Xuan knew that the envoys were coming, but why didn’t the first thing they did when they arrived in Kyoto was to ask to see A Niang?
Jinyiwei looked strange: "After they had a meal at the Eight Immortals Building, they became fascinated by Kyoto cuisine. These days, they have been going around looking for delicious food."
Su Xuanming...
It turns out that every country has unreliable people.
"What was stolen?"
"credentials."
"What?!"
"Our letter of surrender was stolen."
I knock! Dog, you are dead! (End of this chapter)
