    In the end, Huanyue got married honestly.  As for who to marry, it's not Jiang Lingzhou's turn to worry about it. Aunt Lan will naturally take care of it for her.

    Jiang Lingzhou handed Hua Ting a letter, and after thinking about it, it would take more than half a month to receive a reply, and he felt a little homesick.  It happened that Mrs. Xu sent another post, saying that the house had invited the Wu Rui Troupe, and the Wu Rui Troupe could sing some southern songs, so Mrs. Xu wanted to invite the Princess Regent to enjoy the opera with her.

    After Xiao Wuchuan stopped forcing Xu Mingyan to enter the palace, Mrs. Xu quickly arranged a marriage for Xu Mingyan and waited for Xu Mingyan to marry her as soon as she turned nineteen.

    According to the customs of the Wei Dynasty, when two families get married, their respective wives must first negotiate the marriage, and then make a small decision.  On the wedding day, an official wife must be invited to control the situation. The higher the rank of the person invited, the higher the value of the young lady to be married.

    Mrs. Xu¡¯s invitation to Jiang Lingzhou to watch the show was just a pretense. She really wanted her to give Xu Mingyan the date of the show.

    Jiang Lingzhou is not stupid, so he naturally sees Mrs. Xu¡¯s intention.  However, the Xu family and Xiao Junchi have always been on good terms. As the regent princess, she should also take care of the Xu family, so she agreed.

    On the day of Xiaoding, as soon as Jiang Lingzhou arrived at the Xu Mansion, Xu Mingyan and Mrs. Xu greeted him.

    Because the decision was made today, Xu Mingyan dressed particularly solemnly, and her little girl, who had yet to bloom, was also dressed up like pearls.  When she saw Jiang Lingzhou, she bowed her head and said, "Thank you, Princess. Mingyan is able to marry the right man because of the blessing of Princess."

    Jiang Lingzhou gave Miss Xu Er a hand and said, "Your Majesty is a good talker, but I didn't put in much effort. I can't afford your thanks."

    "The princess is kind, and she will be rewarded in the future." Madam Xu smiled and made a gesture of invitation, saying, "Mingyan was promised to the eldest son of the Chen family, and Madam Chen is also a well-educated and sensible person. Princess Xu is watching the show.  That¡¯s fine, don¡¯t pay attention to us.¡±

    What Mrs. Xu said is true. The status of the Chen family is not as prominent as that of the Xu family, so Mrs. Chen also lowered her head in front of Mrs. Xu.  Especially when I saw Mrs. Xu inviting the regent princess to come, I became even more trembling.

    Mrs. Chen was both happy and unbearable in her heart. What she was happy about was that she had climbed a high branch. In the future, with the Xu family and even the regent¡¯s palace behind the Xu family taking care of her, the Chen family would definitely rise. What she was worried about was that after Miss Xu married,  I'm afraid that I'll have to confess, so I just hope that Miss Xu Er can be more gentle and not have a tricky temper.

    The Xu and Chen families looked at each other here, while Jiang Lingzhou went to watch the show by himself.

    She had heard this Wu Ruiban song on the street before, and it was indeed a good one.  This time Mrs. Xu invited the Wurui class, and she was the only spectator in the audience.  The maid brought the album to her and asked her to choose the music.  At a glance, there are many songs sung by the Qi Kingdom, such as "Gong'e Jiao", "Huating Liu", "Liu Family Garden", and at the bottom there is "Yao Mansion Case".

    When she saw "The Case of Yao's Mansion", she remembered the opera she heard on the road last time, and asked: "What is the song about "The Case of Yao's Mansion"?"

    The maidservant replied: "The song is about the rebellion of the Yao family in the past."

    "Oh?" Jiang Lingzhou suddenly became interested and said, "Tell me about it."

    The maid agreed and chatted with her.

    During the Tonghui period, there was a Yao family in Taiyan City, and the family was full of loyal people.  General Yao is good at conquering and fighting, and Mrs. Yao is also a woman who cannot be outdone by women.  The treacherous king was jealous of Yingliang, so he falsely accused the Yao family of treason. The new emperor had just ascended the throne, and the situation in the court was unclear. He believed that his younger brother was plotting a trap and wanted to kill all members of the Yao family.

    General Yao and his brothers died tragically under the guillotine, leaving only Mrs. Yao, Second Young Master Yao and Little Sister Yao.  Mrs. Yao ordered the second young master to run all night and join the good king's army. He would take shelter from the wind and rain and wait for a comeback the next day.

    When the traitorous king saw that the second young master had run away, he threatened his wife to hand over the second young master.  Unexpectedly, this lady was unyielding and would rather die than cut off the bloodline of the Yao family. The treacherous king had no choice but to operate on the eight-year-old little sister Yao, first blinding her eyes and then poisoning her voice.  Mrs. Yao was indifferent and finally hit her head on a pillar and died.

    This episode of "The Case of the Yao Mansion" sings about Mrs. Yao's steadfastness and perseverance.  Because the singing voice is poignant, tragic and indignant, one has to be a top female actor in the Wurui troupe to play Mrs. Yao on stage.

    This drama is exactly what Song Zhenxia said, with fighting and killing, it is not suitable to watch in this garden full of female relatives.  So Jiang Lingzhou ordered the song "Huating Willow".

    Not long after, Miss Xu Er came with a slightly blushing face. Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Xu also looked satisfied. It seemed that the marriage had been completely settled.

    When Xu Mingyan was greeting Jiang Lingzhou, a maidservant hurriedly crossed the stone bridge and walked to Mrs. Xu's side, whispering to Mrs. Xu for a while.  After hearing this, Mrs. Xu's face immediately changed.?, murmuring: "Why again"

    "What?" Jiang Lingzhou asked with concern, "But what happened?"

    Mrs. Xu's face turned red and white for a while, and she said sarcastically: "Princess Regent, my wife, my youngest son Dawu"

    This name is like a code, reminding Jiang Lingzhou of what happened when he came to Xu's house last time.  At that time, Xiao Wuchuan used the pseudonym Xu Dawu and sneaked into Xu Mansion to see her.  When the emperor arrived, the Xu family, as ministers, did not dare to stop him, so they allowed him to come in without hesitation.

    Looking at Mrs. Xu¡¯s appearance, it¡¯s Xiao Wuchuan here again.

    Jiang Lingzhou was a little confused in her heart. Why did the people in the palace know so well about whose house she went to and whom she visited?  Moreover, Xiao Wuchuan always came to Xu's house secretly to see her. Once, it could be said that he was curious. If there were two or three times, what would it be like?  In the eyes of outsiders, wouldn't it mean that the aunt and nephew took the opportunity to secretly meet?

    "Since your Majesty is here, I will give way first." Jiang Lingzhou stood up and said.

    "Why are third aunts leaving in such a hurry?" Xiao Wuchuan's hearty voice rang out before Jiang Lingzhou took a step.  The young man with a spring-like face and a pearl on his head walked over swaggeringly, his brows and eyes full of cunning.

    "I have met His Majesty." Jiang Lingzhou bowed his head and saluted, "I am a boring person. If I stay here, I am afraid that I will disturb His Majesty's interest."

    "What's the trouble? I didn't come out of the palace to find my aunt." Xiao Wuchuan's handsome face smiled.  His eyebrows looked a bit like Xiao Junchi's, but they were even more romantic. Some palace lady was fooling around with him and put a grain of cinnabar on his eyebrows, making him even more sentimental.

    Hearing this, Jiang Lingzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

    Over there, Xiao Wuchuan lifted up his robe and was already sitting under the table.  The actors on the stage had already stopped wearing their long sleeves and stood there looking at each other.  Xiao Wuchuan slapped his thigh and shouted, "Come on, come on, keep going. What are you singing? Is it "Huating Liu"? I can also say a few lines."

    After he finished speaking, he turned his head and said to Jiang Lingzhou: "I also like to listen to this Wu Ruiban play, but the third uncle suppressed me and couldn't even invite me to the palace. If I wanted to listen, I had to sneak outside.  .¡±

    Jiang Lingzhou laughed and said, "Your Majesty, you should put the country first."

    "Guo? What country" Xiao Wuchuan pretended to be dumbfounded, his beautiful face pretending to be innocent, "Didn't I encounter something and come out to relax?"

    "This" Jiang Lingzhou didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.  Anyway, the young emperor always had a reason to be lazy and leave all the government affairs to his third uncle.

    "Yesterday, the imperial doctor diagnosed Wang Concubine's happy pulse." Xiao Wuchuan said.

    "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on the birth of a dragon heir." Jiang Lingzhou and the people around him said quickly.

    Although Xiao Wuchuan married a wife and took concubines at an early age, he had difficulty in having children and never had a son or a half of daughters.  Occasionally, a concubine would become pregnant, but she would give birth within a few months.  This happened three or four times, and there were vague rumors in the court that Xiao Junchi had secretly done something to exterminate the emperor's lineage.

    Jiang Lingzhou didn't know whether this was Xiao Junchi's move, but she knew that the guy should put the country first; he would probably not do anything that was not beneficial to the country.

    "Hey, I haven't finished speaking yet." Xiao Wuchuan put his legs up and said in a long voice, "Wang Concubine fell down this morning and lost the baby in her belly. I was very depressed, so I came out to relax.  "

    Jiang Lingzhou was shocked.

    Did it fall again?

    Now, it will be even harder for Xiao Junchi to get rid of the blame.

    "Your Majesty will be blessed with endless blessings in the future, with children and grandchildren around your knees." Jiang Lingzhou didn't know what to say, so he prevaricates a few words.  At this moment, she heard Xiao Wuchuan shouting.

    "Aunt! Don't move! There's something on your shoulder!"

    Jiang Lingzhou was frightened and did not dare to move.  She glanced down, and there seemed to be something vaguely resting on her shoulder, like an insect.  As a woman, she was most afraid of snakes, rats, insects and ants, so she became even more afraid to move.

    Xiao Wuchuan half-crouched in front of her, reached out to explore her shoulders, and muttered: "Auntie, don't panic, I will catch it for you right now."

    The young emperor stretched out his palm and touched her shoulder gently; at the same time, he whispered to Jiang Lingzhou: "Has aunt asked uncle? Why did uncle ask to marry you that day?"

    Xiao Wuchuan's fingers fell along Jiang Lingzhou's black hair.  The hair was like a stream of ink, sliding through his fingers and palms, and finally fell back to its original place lightly.  "It turns out to be a petal," Xiao Wuchuan raised the object in his hand and raised his eyebrows, his eyes full of teasing.

    Indeed, he held a dark apricot petal in his palm.  When Jiang Lingzhou looked up, he saw that in the Xu family's garden, an old tree as thick as an arm was in bloom. There were a few dark and light reds hidden in the oily green, which was really cute.

    Xiao Wuchuan clapped his hands, rolled up his cuffs, and sat back down.  It happened to be a drama about dandies fighting cocks and horses, and crickets fighting each other. He sang a few lines along with the actor, which was very formal, and it seemed like that.

    "The crickets are fighting happily, General Bai, the big bell - if you two don't fight, how can I let my green pony head become the king? Oh, young master, Yuan Guan wrote that 'The grass is no longer green, and Wang Sunjin is no longer green.  "Go home," but Shi Yin said blankly, "The king and grandson are like crickets." Wouldn't he laugh at others?"
