Chapter 25 Chasing the Husband Thousands of Miles
Xie Fengyue thought for a moment and then said: "Sister, can you give me this pardon?"
Zhou Shuyi blinked and pouted dissatisfiedly: "Fengyue, you have seen a lot of things with me. I remember that you used to directly grab it."
Xie Fengyue's expression froze, but her hand steadily took the roll of gold silk: "Sister, I was only seven or eight years old when you left Peixian County. I was naturally a little more arrogant when I was young, but now you are a princess. It takes some etiquette to be respected.”
The golden silk felt soft in her hands, and Xie Fengyue couldn't help but squeeze it tightly.
Zhou Shuyi took a sip of tea and then asked: "You said you were going to marry to Wu Palace in the spring. What's going on?"
Xie Fengyue was not in a hurry to reply to her, but her eyes fell on Xie Fengyu not far away, who was whispering to Miss Hu Er.
"The original crime was that I took too much money and money. I was the one who was going to be executed after the New Year. It was me who went to Mrs. Somewhat surprised.
Xie Fengyue saw that she couldn't hide the trouble on her face at all, so she raised a smile and comforted her: "The matter has reached this point, and there is no room for change. It will be useless if I immerse myself in resentment every day."
Zhou Shuyi was still a little worried: "If you don't want to marry to the Wu Palace, I can write a letter back and ask my mother-in-law to deal with it for you." Her expression was serious, and her big eyes blinked innocently.
"We will discuss this later. Why don't you tell me about the Zhou Palace? I have never been out of Chen County." What's more, she really doesn't know why Aunt Xiao would help her. Is it just based on the neighbor relationship many years ago?
Now that things are getting more and more chaotic, Xie Fengyue doesn't know where to start.
Zhou Shuyi put down the tea cup in her hand, with a look of disgust on her face, and wanted to talk to her about the etiquette and dogma of the Zhou Palace, but the words had not yet been spoken. The maid next to her ran up to report: "Your Highness, Miss Hu Er and her husband have come to see her."
Zhou Shuyi frowned displeased after being interrupted. When Xie Fengyue saw her like this, she knew that she wanted to refuse to see her, so she quickly said: "Sister, you are a distinguished guest. It is normal for them to come to see you."
Xie Fengyue sat up straight. She was not a good person, and she could retaliate with kindness for this Hu Er girl who made things difficult for her for no reason. She only interceded when she heard that the husband of the Hu family was also here.
Miss Hu Er came with her two husbands and bowed respectfully. She didn't even look at Xie Fengyue who was standing aside: "Your Highness, please greet me. This is my eldest brother Hu Baishan." Then she pointed at Xie Fengyue who had not yet approached. The man said: "That's my second brother Hu Peilin." When she mentioned this man, she couldn't hide the pride on her face. Xie Fengyue looked in the direction of her finger.
As the man approached, Xie Fengyue understood why this Hu Er girl acted like this. Hu Peilin was elegant and handsome, with a crown and a belt. Her wide robe and wide sleeves were fluttering when she walked, and she looked like a celebrity from Qian'an. .
Miss Hu Er continued: "My second brother will be in charge of the Wu Palace troops under the command of Prince Wu before he can be crowned."
Zhou Shuyi didn't like this Hu Er girl at all. She was still showing off his brother here, which made her even more angry: "What's there to say? Isn't he the counselor of Prince Wu? He also controls the troops of Wu Palace. Mr. Langya took control of the entire Wang family’s military power before he could be crowned, and he was not as arrogant as you!”
Miss Hu Er was choked by these words and couldn't find the words to argue.
"What His Highness said is absolutely true. I also regard Gongzi Yan as a role model. When he was still under Gu Dahongru's sect, I still read the strategies he wrote for the flood in Qijiang County from time to time." Hu Peilin's eyes were clear, and what he said was very clear. sincere.
Xie Fengyue looked at his expression, as if this man really respected Gongzi Yan.
It's really strange, how come even the young masters from these aristocratic families are confused by that man's gentle appearance.
"You also think that article was wonderfully written, right? I even have his original manuscript in my collection!" Zhou Shuyi replied in surprise.
Xie Fengyue was silent. It turned out that everyone in the world was drunk and I was alone awake. The whole world was turbid and I was alone in the clear!
Then she immediately realized something was wrong. The future husband that this sister had traveled thousands of miles to pursue could not be Gongzi Yan.
Zhou Shuyi looked excited at this time, as if she had found a confidant: "Chen County is so far away from Langya and the capital, and you actually know the policies he wrote when he was a child. It seems that you really admire him. From this look, you must be a Good people.”
After she finished speaking, she turned to Miss Hu Er who pursed her lips and said nothing: "But your sister is not good. She is rude to guests and arrogant."
Miss Hu's face paled at what she said, and she backed away from Hu Peilin. "Is this Miss Xie Jiayue?"
Xie Fengyue, who was mentioned, was stunned for a moment. Why did the topic suddenly change so quickly?
Hu Peilin bowed and saluted: "I would like to apologize for what happened to my sister today. She is still young and this is her first time hosting a garden party. She lost her etiquette for a moment. Please forgive me for watching the moon."
Xie Fengyue's long eyelashes trembled slightly. He was not sure whether this man was really a gentleman, or whether he was a real hypocrite like Gongzi Yan.
Seeing that she lowered her head and said nothing, Hu Peilin spoke again: "I have ordered someone to punish the nanny of the girl who is in trouble today and reduce her to a rough nun. I have also prepared an apology."
Xie Fengyue's voice was soft: "Mr. Lang's words are serious. Since it is my fault, it will be fine if I punish you."
She raised her eyebrows and looked at him with a smile.
Hu Peilin blushed when she saw him.
He said coyly: "As long as the girl doesn't mind, the girl had a great time at the garden party today."
Xie Fengyue knew in her heart at this moment that Hu Peilin was a true gentleman. She was really afraid of well ropes after being bitten by a snake for ten years. After being deceived by Gongzi Yan's appearance once, she began to doubt when she saw Gongzi Langjun.
She remembered what Gongzi Yan said, and wanted to know from him whether Wu Gong insisted on marrying her, a daughter of the Xie family.
Xie Fengyue tilted her head slightly: "I will go to Wu Palace after the spring begins. Maybe I can still see my husband."
Her words were abrupt, and Miss Hu Er frowned and immediately retorted: "You are a slut, didn't you have a relationship with that young man? Why do you still covet my brother!"
"Gongzi Yan?"
"Gongzi Yan?"
Hu Peilin and Zhou Shuyi asked in unison.
Hu Peilin immediately saluted Zhou Shuyi and motioned for her to speak first.
"Sister Yue, are you getting along with the young master?" Zhou Shuyi's face was filled with shock and anger.
Xie Fengyue's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the husband my sister chased all the way across the country was Gongzi Yan?
She quickly explained: "Sister, can we discuss this matter alone?"
There was pleading in her tone, and Zhou Shuyi's heart softened unconsciously. She pursed her lips and nodded.
Hu Peilin's expression was extremely complicated at this time. He hesitated for a while before asking: "Then do you still want to marry to the Wu Palace?"
Xie Fengyue's heart really sank to the bottom after hearing this. Even Prince Wu's advisers didn't know why she would definitely marry into the Wu Palace, so this matter would be complicated.
It is most likely a deal between the Xie family and King Wu.
