Gu Yue turned around and saw Su Wan gloating about his misfortune, his teeth itched with anger.
"Why, you've already wanted to laugh at my joke?"
Otherwise, why had she appeared immediately after Su Yun poured a basin of cold water on her?
"What I'm saying is, I'm in my own home, going wherever I want, and why do I need to say hello to you?" Su Wan said confidently.
Gu Yue sneered, pretending not to take it seriously:
"What are you so proud of? I gave up all this on my own initiative. If I had insisted on staying in the Su family, what would have happened to you now?"
She was really frustrated, and she didn't forget to speak harshly.
Su Wan laughed angrily and mocked:
"When people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. This is understandable. At the beginning, the Su family was in poverty, but I didn't see you showing any reluctance to give up. You could run faster than a rabbit. You said it yourself. This was your own choice. Now that you have chosen, you have no regrets. Besides, everything I got today is the result of my own efforts. I have never borrowed from anyone. Everything I get is what I deserve. .”
Su Wan had this confidence. Her position as princess was also earned with money, but she earned all the money herself. In comparison, she was much more confident.
Gu Yue felt that she could not convince Su Wan. She was indeed in the wrong and just wanted to show off her happiness.
But Su Wan was very sharp-tongued, but she couldn't speak to her.
"Huh, we haven't reached the last step yet. You can't say who will be more brilliant than the other. Don't you want to marry Prince Jiang? Then you may be disappointed. Mr. Jiang Guo already has a favorite candidate for the Crown Prince's wife, but this person It's not you, and it can't be you.
Now that the Su Mansion has been married to the Great Scholar's Mansion, you are not unaware of the great scholar's reputation in the court. In many cases, he can play a leading role. Now the eldest brother and the third brother are both civil and military, and they are at the height of their power in the court. Duke Jiang's Mansion He also holds military power, and if he marries you in the Su Mansion, let alone he won't agree, I'm afraid even the Holy Emperor won't agree either.
It is not good for a family to be too prosperous. As the saying goes, when the water is full, it overflows, and when the moon is full, it loses. You are so smart, you will not be unclear. "
In fact, Gu Yue just wanted to cause trouble for Su Wan and try to stop her, but that was indeed what she said.
Su Wan knew how powerful this was, but she just believed in Jiang Yu because he said he could solve it.
Now it seems that, as Gu Yue said, it is very difficult for Jiang Yu to solve it.
But Su Wan is not someone to be trifled with and will definitely fight back.
"If you worry about others, it's better to worry about yourself first. As far as I know, the fifth prince's power is weak now. You want to be his prince concubine. On the surface, your status is sufficient, but with the title of county lord, you are afraid that It won't make any difference. The Gu family is a businessman and cannot reach out to the court. If you want to do big things, you must have enough power. Money alone is not enough. If the fifth prince wants to quickly consolidate his power, the fastest way is What do you think about finding a daughter of a minister with a background, power, and a voice in the court for marriage?
I remember that His Highness the Fifth Prince is currently working in the Ministry of Household Affairs, right? It is said that the Minister of the Ministry of Finance has a legitimate daughter who is not married. She is the only daughter in the family. Can you tell me how important this is? As the saying goes, those who are near the water and the towers first get the moon. Do you think what I say makes sense? "
When Su Wan said this, Gu Yue's hands hidden in her sleeves tightened.
She was afraid, she was nervous.
Su Wan also hit the nail on the head. Now Murong Sheng is in the Ministry of Hubu every day and often visits the house of the Minister of Hubu. The legitimate daughter of the Minister of Hubu sees such a single prince who is unparalleled in beauty, literary and military skills, and can be seen every day. How to resist?
Of course I fell in love with it.
Moreover, the Minister of Revenue also intends to send his daughter to the Fifth Prince's Mansion.
They have just such a daughter, who has been holding her like jewels and grown up. I wish I could pick out all the stars and moon in the sky and give them to her.
As long as she expresses her interest in the fifth prince, the Minister of Household Affairs will naturally extend an olive branch.
Murong Sheng now has two princes' houses standing by his side. In addition, only a minister from the Ministry of Rites is on good terms with him, and the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu, who has some signs of defecting.
If he can marry someone else's daughter, then the household will be in control.
Su Wan stabbed the person and left, but nothing happened to him.
How Jiang Guogong will solve it is something Jiang Yu should be worried about. What's the use of her being anxious?
He can't just rush to someone else's house and beg them to marry him, right?
…
In the evening, the banquet in the Su Mansion had ended. The fifth prince and the sixth prince had already left. Murong Huai and Su Chen were very drunk, holding each other's shoulders and arguing.
Jiang Yu was also drunk. He held his head and closed his eyes. He didn't know if he fell asleep or if he was resting his mind with his eyes closed.
In the end, it was the two young eunuchs around Murong Huai who sent him back to the Seventh Prince's Mansion.
When passing by Su Wan, he looked at Su Wan with a smile and said:
"Soldering iron, see you another day!"
Su Wan's heart skipped a beat and she thought to herself, if you drink some horse urine, you are arrogant and arrogant. What if it's exposed?
She quickly joked:
"His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince is so funny. What is a soldering iron?"
The second brother was also drunk. Sun Ling'er helped him back to the room, helped him change clothes and wipe himself. As a result, Su Mu transformed into a little wolf dog, threw Sun Ling'er down on the couch, lowered his head and kissed her lips.
For a long time, he muttered:
"Linger, we are going to get married soon, are you happy?"
After saying that, Su Mu put his head on her neck and fell asleep.
Sun Ling'er's heart was pounding, but she smiled happily and sweetly. She hugged his waist and said softly:
"Natural joy."
…
Su Yun and Su Yi were responsible for taking care of the third brother, and Su Wan returned after putting Jiacheng on the carriage.
The hall was empty.
Su Jing wanted to stay completely sober, but she was still seven points drunk and stumbled to her new house.
When the maids saw this, they quickly left the courtyard.
Opening the door, Shen Qingli had dressed up again and sat quietly by the couch with a fan in hand.
Xipo had to watch the two of them drink Hexin wine, eat raw dumplings, and say a lot of congratulations before leaving.
Shen Qingli stupidly ate three of them, and then joked that she would give birth to three in the future. She was so embarrassed.
There were only two people left in the room. Su Jing took off her fan, reached out and gently took off her hair crown, and then rubbed her neck.
The two of them were very close, and Shen Qingli could clearly smell the strong smell of alcohol on his body.
"Are you tired?" Su Jing's eyes were blurred.
Shen Qingli shook her head. Just when she said she wasn't tired, he held her back and pushed her down.
"Then let's do what we need to do..." Su Jing said hoarsely and kissed her lips.
The buttons of the coat were unbuttoned, and the bright red curtain fell.
There were candles flickering in the room, but they were set off by red, which turned it into a dark red, giving it a very atmospheric feel.
The wick on the dragon and phoenix candle was cut off, and the red wax oil dripped on the mahogany table. It had solidified and burned all night...
