Chapter 658: Does It Matter?
Not to mention Rong Chuan, he kept his head down during the palace examination, and now he felt the crown prince watching him, and his heart tightened.
The crown prince looked at the third uncle from the corner of his eye. This man is not just looking for trouble. Not only did he invite Zhou Changlian, but also Zhang Rongchuan. It was interesting. At that time, the imperial father paid special attention to this young man in the imperial examination. Called the third uncle into the palace, said he was playing chess, who did he lie to!
He wasn't idle yesterday, he had checked out everything he wanted to know, one named Shen Yang, who had an overly clean family background, Zhang Rongchuan was even more interesting, and Zhou Shuren was the son-in-law raised by his son.
Ning Xu knew that the prince would not come for no reason, seeing that the prince was paying attention to Rong Chuan, "Prince, I asked the housekeeper to send them away."
The prince withdrew his gaze, "Yes."
When Chang Lian and Rong Chuan came out of Ninghou Mansion, the two breathed a sigh of relief, thinking in their hearts that they were worthy of being the crown prince taught by the emperor, they didn't say anything, they didn't dare to breathe.
Back on the carriage, Chang Lian opened the box given by Master Hou, surprised, "Is this an ancient book?"
Rong Chuan also opened his own box, "Mine are copybooks."
Changlian opened it carefully and looked at it, shocked, "This, this is too precious."
Rong Chuan carefully put away the copybooks. Lord Ning has investigated him clearly, even his preferences. It feels bad to be investigated, but he can't let go of the box when he touches it. Anyone who loves writing can't give it up. He is happy in his heart, and he recites silently in his heart. Anyway, if it is given to him, he will not return it.
Chang Lian closed the box, a little apprehensive, "This ancient book is hard to find for money, if it is sold, it will be worth less than my entire family."
He has worked so hard to save up for several years, but there is still not enough for an ancient book in his hand, it is quite sad to think about it.
Rong Chuan didn't want to write the copybook anymore, "At present, Master Hou has no ill intentions towards me."
Chang Lian twitched the corner of his mouth, pointed to his own box, and pointed to the one held in Rong Chuan's hand, "If these are malicious, I hope there will be more malicious."
Rong Chuan burst into laughter, and his heart became much lighter.
Holding the box, Chang Lian sighed in his heart, it seemed that Rong Chuan had a very high background, otherwise, he would not have given such a big gift at the first meeting, and then he was worried about his sister.
In the Ning Mansion, the crown prince ate fruit and drank tea, and he didn't wait for the third uncle to speak. Come on, if he didn't speak, the third uncle would not say, "Third uncle, who is Zhang Rongchuan? The emperor announced that you entered the palace not to play chess." Well, it should be because of Zhang Rongchuan, Zhang Rongchuan is a bit like grandpa and second uncle, he won't have anything to do with the Ning family!"
Ning Xu was silent, look, the prince's reaction was all related to the Ning Mansion, "The prince wanted to ask this today?"
Prince, "Ah, that's not true. I just wanted to ask after meeting Zhang Rongchuan just now. Uncle San didn't answer directly. It seems that my guess is right?"
Ning Xu was not sure how much the prince knew about the emperor's layout, so he didn't want to give the prince some words, because he was afraid that the prince would investigate blindly, "It does have something to do with the Ning Mansion, and I will investigate this matter."
The prince was surprised. Forget about the eldest uncle. He has passed away for too many years. Could it be the second uncle? It's also possible that the third uncle, or a surviving relative in the Ning Mansion?
After Zhou Mansion, Zhulan saw the things that Hou Mansion sent, she said calmly: "Take it."
Looking at his mother, Chang Lian always felt that his mother knew something, but he couldn't see what she knew. He was depressed. He felt that he was quite smart, but he found out that his mother was still his mother, always better than her.
Zhulan waited for Changlian and Lian to leave, and continued to embroider the purse. This was for Changzhong. The temperature outside was high, and Changzhong didn’t stay in the house anymore. Yesterday’s purse broke, and Zhulan wanted to give it to his son. make new ones.
Mrs. Song couldn't help but said, "Mistress, aren't you worried?"
Zhulan didn't raise her head, "What are you worried about?"
Mrs. Song said: "Miss."
Zhulan raised her head, "You know more than I do, and you've seen it too. It's such an expensive meeting gift, so what's the use of worrying about it? Fortunately, the Zhou family has always been kind to Rong Chuan. I hope that this kindness will help Rong Chuan The relationship between Chuan and Xuehan,
It's better for the two of you not to suffer setbacks. "
Saying so, Zhulan really doesn't want her daughter to marry into the royal family. Being rich means being rich, and her and Shuren's plan for Xuehan has come to naught. She and Zhou Shuren have no power to control Xuehan's future, which is really terrible.
Moreover, if the marriage is not serious, it will be a big blow to Xuehan. Xuehan and Rong Chuan grew up together, so everyone should know about it, and it will not be good for Xuehan's future.
Now the two results have their pros and cons, and now it is really a matter of fact, but at present, Chang Lian is both given expensive meeting gifts, which shows that the perception of the Zhou Mansion is very good, and maintaining the marriage is more beneficial to Xuehan than harmful.
Mrs. Song fell silent, she just loves Miss, she is a very talented person, and hopes that there will be no twists and turns in Miss's marriage.
Chang Lian went back to the courtyard and told his wife all the guesses, only to see that the lady continued to play with her daughter, "My lady, why didn't you react at all?"
Mrs. Dong threw the fur ball in her hand to the other side of the bed, saw her daughter crawling to get it, and then replied, "It's not something we can worry about, anyway, we have parents here, so we can just take care of ourselves Now, you have time to worry, why not play with your daughter for a while."
Changlian looked at Mrs. Dong, "My lady is right, this is not what I should think about."
Seeing her daughter crawling back, Mrs. Dong said, "Yuyi, give the ball to Mother."
Chang Lian clapped his hands, "Girl, give the ball to Dad."
Dong Shi caught the girl who rushed over, and kissed her with a smile, "Good girl."
Chang Lian sat on the side, "I was so focused on the imperial examination a few days ago, this girl and I don't even kiss each other anymore."
"It's good for the children to accompany her more."
Chang Lian hugged his wife and daughter, "You see Yu Yi is getting older, we can have another one."
Mrs. Dong wanted it too, but unfortunately she never had it, "Let's see fate."
In Yaohou Mansion, Mrs. Bai came to her daughter's boudoir with the list in her hand, "Yao Yao, are you still reading?"
Yao Yao put down the book, "Mother, are you not with brother?"
Bai's mind was exhausted, and his son suddenly became weak. After seeing the doctor, he went back and forth again and again, and now he can only lie in the house, "Mother is for your business, you are not too young, this is what your father gave to mother." The list, my mother also asked people to check it, and selected a few from it, you can take a look."
If Yao Yao didn't have the news from her elder brother, she would just read it, and it's meaningless to read it now, "Mother, my daughter won't read it."
Bai's eyes were red, "Mother's heartache is you and your brother, your brother didn't get well, your father didn't care that he gave up completely now, mother just wants you to be well."
Yao Yao picked up the list, "Let me see."
She also took a look at what her father chose for her. This is because the marriage is not possible. She decided to focus on the candidates for the imperial examination. After reading it, she sneered. She really used her remaining value and chose some There are some influential families in other places.
Her reputation is not good, she was really married, she was far away from the capital, no one cared if she died or not, anyway, it was just a marriage, her heart was already cold enough, now there is a chill in her bones.
