Minglan's brows wrinkled slightly.
I never expected that my best friend Yanran would be involved in a marriage with Uncle Gu.
Although the second uncle Gu had studied at the family school for a while, most of the attention in the school was still on the young master Qi Heng. He didn’t know much about the second son of the Gu family. I only heard that he was a flowery Taisui.
But the second brother in the family, Chang Bai, was friendly with him, and the young father-in-law also called him second uncle.
So Minglan, Ru Lan and Mo Lan reached a consensus, and the three of them unanimously called Gu Tingye Uncle Gu.
"If it really comes to pass..."
"Then Yanran, aren't you my second aunt?"
Minglan muttered softly, but Yu Yanran didn't hear what she was saying clearly.
In Wei Ruixuan at this moment, Yu Yanran actually has the most noble family background. Although her father is only a minister, her grandfather is very important. He is the elder Yu Ge who has been in the cabinet and served as the chief minister, so beside his grandfather Only when she grew up could Yu Yanran discuss marriage with the Hou family.
It's just a pity that the reputation of this Gu family Erlang is not very good.
Minglan found an opportunity to drag Yanran into Mu Cangzhai. After entering, she had a straight face and glared at Yanran: "There are no outsiders here. Please tell me quickly. What's going on?"
At this time, Danju and Xiaotao had the good sense to retreat from everyone in the room and retreat together.
Yu Yanran looked sad: "It's the matchmaker my stepmother is looking for..."
Minglan glanced at the closed door. She sat next to Yanran and said softly: "Sister Yanran, I'm not talking about you. We are just talking about marriage now and haven't made an appointment yet. How can this be spread throughout the city?" If things don’t work out, what will my sister do then?”
Minglan's intelligence has been gradually honed.
Minglan learned a lot from the old lady, and also took classes from Zhuang Xuexue. Minglan, who had been smart since childhood, inherited her mother Wei Shuyi's energy. She usually looks silent, but in her heart But it's like having a bright mirror.
Minglan knew that not everyone had the courage and courage to reject the appointment letter from the Earl's Mansion in public like his father.
In this way, the matter is completely brought to the table to be resolved. What is most afraid of is Yanran's situation. The whole city is aware of the commotion but does not know what happened. This situation is the easiest for others to follow what they say.
Yanran sniffed and her voice was slightly choked: "My stepmother got married to a relative of Ningyuan Hou's family and urged my father to accept the marriage. It's just that my grandfather said that he should find out more clearly. I replied again, but I didn’t expect that my stepmother would make the whole city aware of the matter.”
As she spoke, Yanran put away her tears and said with a smile: "Look at me, your family has a prosperous life, but I look like this. It's a joke to my sister! I don't think my father would cheat his daughter. The girl's family always wants to marry Yes, I asked my grandfather to stop looking around and just marry him anyway."
Upon hearing this, Minglan's face instantly straightened up and she said seriously: "I know sister Yanran doesn't want Yu Mansion to make a fuss over this matter, but if you think about it carefully, if you get married in such a haphazard manner, what will happen in the future? The question is, regardless of how well you are doing, your grandparents are already at this age. Do you want them to go to the Gu family to support you when they are in their 60s?"
….
Yanran's face turned pale and her heart was in a mess.
She naturally knew what Minglan meant, and she couldn't count on her parents.
If she had a bad life in the future, only her grandparents who loved her would be affected.
"What should I do?"
Yu Yanran cried again.
Minglan looked at her best friend in front of her and sighed slightly: "Oh, it would be great if you married into my family."
...
Lu Ze naturally heard about the marriage between the Yu family and the Gu family.
Lu Ze looked slightly confused.
Isn't this Gu Erlang just like in the original novel, who went to the Yu family to propose marriage for the sake of his weak wife who can't take care of herself?
But Lu Ze didn't care too much about this matter. After all, it had nothing to do with him and the Sheng family.
There are too many things in the quagmire of the Gu family. It would be better to let Zhu Manniang marry Gu Erlang and fight with that little Qin family in the ring. That would be a really nice scene.
These days, Lu Ze's eyes have been on the court and the officials.
Now that the battle between King Yan and King Yong has become more intense, even if the official family is determined to establish a heir apparent, the other party will not give up.
After all, there is only one step away from the coveted throne.
Unless the official is ruthless enough, like Chong Bage, after deciding on the candidate for the crown prince, he will sweep away all the thorns around his authority.
It is a pity that officials have always been known for their kindness after they ascended the throne.
Lu Ze looked at the bustling Bianjing City, but in his eyes was the bloody storm that would ignite here in the future.
The root cause of everything is that the storage space has been empty for a long time.
Nowadays, the constant hesitation of the officials has led to the long-term confrontation between King Yong and King Yan. As a result, the two sides have gathered a large number of forces. Civil servants have criticized each other, and military generals have formed their own factions. Both sides are in the same situation.
Later, everyone simply rode on the tiger and couldn't get off, and they were in a desperate situation.
At this time, either the referee, the official, could suspend the game if he said it, or the two parties involved were willing to give up, and those around them refused to give up for the sake of their wealth, future, and lives.
In order to make progress for himself and for his family to have stability in the turmoil, Lu Ze, a pure minister, decided to take action.
Finally, after a court meeting, Lu Ze found the opportunity to meet with the officials alone.
Guan Jia's current physical condition is completely different from that of a few years ago. There is an obvious look of exhaustion on his old, wrinkled face. Looking at Lu Ze who is respectfully saluting not far away, Guan Jia's eyes are full of... Slightly bright.
"Sheng Shaoqing, if I remember correctly, this should be the first time you have met with me alone since entering the capital, right?"
"Tell me, do you have anything important to report?"
Lu Ze bowed slightly and handed the folder in his hand to the official.
The originally smiling face of the official became extremely livid after reading the contents of the memorial. He retreated with all the others waiting around him. The official walked slowly to Lu Ze, his eyes sharpened. Staring at Lu Ze.
"King Yong, King Yan."
"You, a small fifth-rank official, actually handed me such a book?"
The official directly lit the paper with a candle, waved it in front of Lu Ze, then bowed his head and whispered in his ear.
After noticing these few details, Lu Ze sighed in his heart that the official family was really kind-hearted. He was afraid that something would happen to Lu Ze because of the Zhezi incident, so he burned the Zhezi in front of him, and even spoke so carefully.
Lu Ze's eyes were clear, he nodded slightly, and replied in a low voice.
"I said that I must be a pure minister."
