Mrs. Xu was a little stunned. She looked at Xu Qingmo for a long time, and for the first and only time, she seriously replied: "Okay!"
Xu Qingmo was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Yeah!"
On the second day after the queen conferred marriage to the prince, the emperor gave the prince a concubine, a concubine with a higher status than Yan Junuo.
Yan Junuo, who was still immersed in joy, was given a bucket of cold water. The future prince's concubine was born into the Langya Wang family.
The Wang family of Langya has always been known as the "first leader in China". This family is the head of the four great clans of the Jin Dynasty, "Wang Xie Yuan Xiao". Although the Wang family has been silent in these years, its descendants are prosperous, and their descendants are all over the country, serving as errands everywhere. The head of his family is also a first-grade bachelor of the Diange Palace.
And this Wang Xianyu is also the bachelor's favorite eldest granddaughter.
Wang Xianyu is also a powerful person. After learning that she had been given a marriage, she kept quiet for about three days and then posted a message inviting ladies from the capital to appreciate the chrysanthemums.
Xu Qingmo is being invited.
Xu Qingmo has never liked these weird flower viewing parties. After all, there are only a few flowers and there is really no need to appreciate them, so she will refuse most of the time.
But this time, Wang Xianyu, who had no social contact with him on weekdays, actually sent a personal maid to invite him, saying only that Miss Wang must let her go.
Although Xu Qingmo was reluctant, he accepted the invitation after thinking that this grand scholar was barely a good person and there was no need to offend such a high-ranking and powerful person who could cause trouble for his family.
Hua Ying and Qu Lian knew that all the ladies in the capital were going to attend, so they prepared beautiful clothes and accessories early. On that day, Xu Qingmo, who had a reluctant face, looked fresh and beautiful.
When Xu Qingmo looked at the mirror, he was a little surprised: "I thought you would dress me up in a fancy way? I didn't expect it to be quite simple and elegant!"
"The flower viewing banquet hosted by Miss Wang should not be too showy. If you overdo it, you will inevitably offend others." Hua Ying said softly.
Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows slightly: "Yes, you are aware!"
When Xu Qingmo arrived, it was still relatively early, and only their family's carriage was parked at the gate. When she got off the carriage, she was still a little strange: "What's going on? Did we come too early?"
Hua Ying looked at the post and then shook her head: "No, we arrived half an hour later than the time set in the post!"
Xu Qingmo paused, then walked in: "Yes, I'm afraid, this is what Miss Wang did deliberately!"
As soon as the three of them walked to the door, Wang Xianyu's maid came up to them: "Miss Xu, you're here, let us girls wait!"
"If you girls want to see me alone, you can just say so. Why do you need to make it like this?" Xu Qingmo directly exposed them.
The maid was a little embarrassed: "Miss Xu, we girls have something to say to you. I don't know exactly what it is..."
Xu Qingmo didn't intend to embarrass him, so he nodded: "Lead the way!"
The maidservant was overjoyed and led Xu Qingmo through the corridor to Wang Xianyu's yard.
There are already many chrysanthemums placed inside and outside the yard, but anyone with a discerning eye can tell that these are chrysanthemums bought from outside. Although there are many novel varieties, they are in a messy manner, and they were obviously put together in a short period of time. .
Xu Qingmo was invited into the house, and Wang Xianyu hurried out after a while.
Xu Qingmo didn't have a close relationship with her, it could only be regarded as a casual acquaintance. When they attended a banquet in the palace, they met face to face and knew each other, but they didn't exchange a few words.
Therefore, when Wang Xianyu specially sent someone to find her, it was quite unexpected by Xu Qingmo.
"Miss Xu!" Wang Xianyu sat down in front of Xu Qingmo, "I invited you here because I want to ask you for a favor!"
Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows: "Help? How can I help Miss Wang?"
Wang Xianyu looked at the maid next to her, who immediately went to close the door.
"I don't want to marry the prince!" Wang Xianyu looked at Xu Qingmo and said suddenly.
Xu Qingmo's eyelids twitched: "What?"
"I don't want to marry the prince!" Wang Xianyu said again.
"so what?"
"You have to help me!" Wang Xianyu suddenly took Xu Qingmo's hand.
Xu Qingmo became more and more confused. She took her hand out of Wang Xianyu's: "Why should I help you?"
"Because you are from the seventh prince!" Wang Xianyu looked at Xu Qingmo and said word by word.
Xu Qingmo frowned: "Don't talk nonsense. The Seventh Prince and I clearly understand that I am the Seventh Prince's person. If you ruin my reputation like this, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
Wang Xianyu was stunned for a moment, then realized that she had said the wrong thing: "No, you are the think tank around the seventh prince, and I, I... I am the seventh prince's person!"
Xu Qingmo suddenly realized.
"I, the Seventh Prince and I have known each other since childhood and have a deep relationship. We had agreed that in a few days, he would ask His Majesty to marry me, but I didn't expect..." Wang Xianyu said, red Blinded.
"I didn't expect the prince to suddenly intervene!" Xu Qingmo couldn't hold back and laughed.
Wang Xianyu's face was red, her eyes were red, and she looked at Xu Qingmo with an aggrieved face: "Originally, the prince planned to marry you, but you made such a fuss and dragged me into the water. You, you have to be responsible!"
"I'm a woman, and I didn't get into your belly. What kind of responsibility do I have to bear?" Xu Qingmo couldn't help laughing.
"You, you..." Wang Xianyu twisted the handkerchief in her hand and was speechless.
"Did the Seventh Prince ask you to come to me?" Xu Qingmo looked at Wang Xianyu and asked softly,
"I don't dare to see the seventh prince now. It was Prince Yongchang who sent me a letter asking me to go to the theater. I met Prince Yongchang there. He asked me to find a way to see you. You are a woman. It's easier to act in the backyard, it's easier for me to see you, and you can help me!" Wang Xianyu lowered her head and said softly.
When Xu Qingmo heard about Yongchang Hou Shizi, he felt a little headache, but looking at the aggrieved Wang Xianyu in front of him, Xu Qingmo really couldn't bear to ignore her. After all, this matter was more or less related to him!
"I can help you, but if you don't marry him, another girl Wang will marry him. Which sister would you rather give up?" Xu Qingmo looked at Wang Xianyu and said coldly.
Wang Xianyu lowered her head and thought carefully: "My second uncle has a legitimate daughter, but..."
"Huh?" Xu Qingmo frowned slightly.
"Her mother's birth was not a good one!" Wang Xianyu said with some regret, "My second uncle is a lover. In this life, he only has one wife, but she was once a widower!"
