After Pei Ziye sent Jiang Shiyuan back safely, he rushed back to the Taifu Mansion and went straight to the study to report to Pei Che.
As soon as Pei Ziye entered the room, he couldn't help laughing and said, "My little aunt is so funny. She asked me if I liked someone or not, and she didn't object to me saying that I liked someone or not."
Pei Che looked up and said nothing. He paused for a moment and began to write.
…
Jiang Shiyuan returned to the general's mansion, and the first thing he did was to go to the warehouse.
She had a special small storeroom where she kept all kinds of spices she collected. At the innermost part of the storeroom were several large boxes.
Jiang Shiyuan opened the box, revealing neatly stacked ancient books.
Looking at these well-kept books, Jiang Shiyuan was stunned.
Ancient books and classics...
His study was filled with ancient books and classics. In such a huge study, not even a travelogue could be found. It was as solemn and dignified as he was.
When Bai Ri heard Pei Zanxue say that Pei Ziye liked ancient books, she was stunned for a moment.
She thought...
Jiang Shiyuan shook his head, smiled bitterly, and interrupted his thoughts.
How is that possible.
Jiang Shiyuan, you are so bold!
Jiang Shiyuan took out a set of ancient books from the box very skillfully, and then closed the box again.
"Hongdou, go to the bookstore tomorrow to ask if this set of ancient books is still available. If it is in stock, buy another set." Jiang Shiyuan ordered.
Anko looked confused.
These boxes of ancient books were collected one by one by Miss Wang from various major bookstores. She has collected quite a lot of them and only takes them out to dry them from time to time. She has never read them at other times. Now that she has taken out a set, why does she need to complete it?
Although Hongdou was full of doubts, she didn't say much. She naturally understood the lady's intention in the arrangement.
After noting down the title of the book, he asked someone to go to the bookstore to ask.
When Jiang Shiyuan came out of the storeroom, Nanny Qin greeted him happily.
Ever since Man Tingchun came back, Nanny Qin has never lost the smile on her face.
Not only Nanny Qin, but the entire general's mansion was filled with a festive atmosphere.
Nanny Qin even secretly set off two strings of firecrackers outside the back door, and the old lady lit them herself.
"Miss, there's a letter from the palace." Nanny Qin reported, "The Imperial Concubine said that the Pei family had sent a letter to the Imperial Concubine yesterday, wanting to set a date to go to the palace to meet Imperial Concubine Jiang and discuss the marriage between the two families."
Nanny Qin was overjoyed. Look at this wealthy family's conduct. It was flawless.
The Jiang family had no one, the imperial concubine held a high position, and she had favored her niece, the young lady, since she was a child. The Pei family took the initiative to request to go to the palace to discuss the marriage together, which was reasonable and gave the Jiang family enough dignity and respect.
"Your Majesty checked the calendar and found that the day after tomorrow is an auspicious day, a good day for engagement." Nanny Qin said.
In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, the marriage will be a done deal after the day after tomorrow.
Nanny Qin spoke as she quietly measured Jiang Shiyuan's expression.
Jiang Shiyuan knew the doubts in Nanny Qin's heart and said with a smile, "This marriage is very good. Everything will be arranged by my aunt. Nanny, please accompany me to the palace the day after tomorrow to settle this marriage as soon as possible."
"Eh! Okay, okay, okay, Mammy will make the arrangements."
Nanny Qin smiled brightly when she heard this.
Great, the good days for her daughter have finally come.
After deciding with Nanny Qin about entering the palace the day after tomorrow, Jiang Shiyuan turned around and plunged into the incense room.
Pei Ziye gave her a set of storybooks and many snacks. Jiang Shiyuan wanted to give two in return. She wanted to mix another incense for Pei Ziye.
Pei Ziye has an uninhibited and flamboyant personality, so strong and unrestrained ambergris is more suitable for him.
It's the only one of its kind in Beijing, and it's a token of her love.
In the blink of an eye, night falls.
In the Wenyuan Marquis's Mansion——
Shen Luchu held a book in his hand, but his eyes were fixed on a sachet on the desk, and he suddenly sneered.
Mo Yu, who was serving in the study, raised his head blankly.
Shen Luchu threw the book on the table with a teasing smile on his face.
There is no way to see it. I can't see it at all.
Whenever he thought of Jiang Shiyuan saying that she was married, he wanted to laugh.
"Mo Yu, do you think Jiang Shiyuan will regret it tomorrow?" Shen Luchu suddenly asked.
Mo Yu couldn't figure out what his master was thinking for a moment. He couldn't see through it at all. Did the young master care or not?
If you don't care, then the eldest daughter of the Jiang family said she was married, but the prince didn't show any expression.
If you don't care... Mo Yu glanced at the book on the table. If he read it correctly, the book was already on that page.
If he didn't care, then why was the prince so absent-minded the whole day and couldn't even read a page of the book?
But Madam has instructed that from now on, the Crown Prince's studies are the most important thing, and everything should be centered around the Crown Prince's studies. No one can interfere with the Crown Prince's preparations for the Spring Examination.
Anyone who influences the prince will be dragged out and beaten to death.
Later, Xiao Cui, who was making tea, was thought to be deliberately seducing the prince to distract him because she was wearing more colorful clothes, so she was sold out by the lady.
Everyone in the Wenyuan Marquis's residence knew how much the Madam attached to the prince's imperial examination.
Mo Yu didn't dare to think about it. If the prince failed to pass the exam this time and others didn't know about it, he, as his personal servant, would definitely not have a good ending.
The lady will definitely vent her anger on him!
Mo Yu shuddered, and with great caution, he suppressed his doubts and followed Chen Luchu's tone and said, "There's no need to wait until tomorrow. I guess Jiang Shiyuan must be regretting it right now and can't sleep all night. Why did she have to lie about getting married?"
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Luchu's brows relaxed and he picked up the book again.
Mo Yu continued, "She told such a big lie, let's see how it ends. My guess is that if Jiang Shiyuan doesn't find this trick irritating enough for you, she will come to you in a panic to explain tomorrow. You just wait patiently, my Lord."
"Everyone knows that Jiang Shiyuan likes you very much, Master. She just lied because she saw that you were close to Miss Su."
Mo Yu spoke as he ground the ink, then handed the pen to Chen Luchu.
Shen Luchu took the pen and finished writing an article in less than a cup of tea.
