Chapter 1201: Save

Seeing that his cousin was silent, Cao Xiang said, "I have been worried these days, for fear that the fourth sister will follow the footsteps of the fifth sister. Although the Tian family is rich, it is not a place to live, and I don't know how many grievances you will suffer. Although Prince Guanglu has not shown his title, he has less trouble. Even if he has a little distant relationship with the royal palace, he is only a little more comfortable. Who dares to bully them?"

Seeing that Cao Xiang was thinking through, Cao Yong nodded and said, "That's exactly what it means." Speaking of this, he remembered something and said, "I'm afraid the second old lady will be disappointed. Since I have been to the Thirteenth Princess, I'm afraid she is still hoping to marry the fourth sister."

Zhao Jia's thoughts have never been hidden from others.

Cao Xiang was not good at paying attention to his mother, so he said, "My mother feels sorry for her fourth sister, and she always wants to do it..."

It is now October. Even if the imperial edict mentions "choose auspicious marriage" and the six rituals come after, the wedding date will be until next year, so the time will be calm.

This is also the difference between a legitimate wife and a concubine. If she is accused of being a concubine, she will just choose a day at will and ask a sedan chair to come to carry someone...

Outside the Forbidden City, the Imperial Garden, and the Haizi.

Hongli was worried. When he found Hongzhou, he was sitting on the bluestone, holding a fishing rod in his hand, humming a small song in his mouth, and enjoying the joy of fishing leisurely.

Seeing this, Hongli was so amused that he took two steps forward, sat next to him, and hummed, saying, "I don't go to the study room, nor do I go to Uncle Sixteen to study errands, so I hide in the garden and take a lazy look."

Hongzhou turned around, glanced at him with a "resentful" look, and said, "Fourth brother, my younger brother is sad. If you don't hide from crying, can you still shed tears in front of others?"

Hongli was choked by him and said in confusion: "Since I have taken a fancy to you, I'll just ask you for your mother. It's not in vain that you have been talking about it for a long time. Didn't you say that you have mentioned it to your mother a few days ago? Why is there any change in front of you?"

When Hongzhou heard him talking, he was not in the mood to fish again. He lifted the fishing rod and threw it aside, and said a little angrily: "It's not because of the fourth brother!"

Seeing that he was indignant and pretended to be fake, Hongli couldn't help but wonder: "Why did you point me at the point of being someone?" He frowned slightly and said, "Is it because of Cao?"

There are not many princes at the top of the knees. Apart from the third prince who has been rejected and Shang Xiao’s Fuhui, there are only two left in the fourth prince Hongli and the fifth prince Hongzhou.

If the emperor wants to appease and strengthen the relationship between ministers and the royal family, he would choose a few more families to match the prince. But sometimes, there are also several daughters in the family who refer to the royal family.

For example, the Guarja family where the late Prince Limi is located was born, and two princes, including several princes, Prince Fujin, Beile, and Mrs. Beizi.

The Cao family is not well-founded, and the fourth and fifth girls are still side branches. Even if the two sisters are divided into prince’s side concubines, it is nothing, so there is no way to get in the way?

"It's not Cao's family, but the wife of the fourth brother!" Hongzhou stood up, picked up a few stones from the ground, and then drifted them.

Hongli was even more confused after hearing this.

Although he had passed the primary election of the draft, many of them stayed in Chu Xiu Palace, and he had also spoken in front of his biological mother. But the meaning of his biological mother, he and his brother's legitimate wife must be determined by the emperor's father, and there is no movement yet.

Seeing him in chaos, Hongzhou was also impatient to keep an eye on him and said in a weak voice: "My mom said that Emperor Ama mentioned that this time, I will only choose the legitimate wife for the fourth brother and I. The legitimate wife will have to wait for the future. The reason is naturally nothing, it is to give the legitimate wife to the prince. Even if the fourth girl of the Cao family is a lower-class girl, she is the legitimate daughter of the Shichen minister family. With the title of a legitimate wife, she can live a better life even in the palace. If she doesn't have a serious title, she still doesn't know how much suffering she will suffer. She is a quiet and innocent person, why should I let her go to the palace to suffer for her own selfishness?"

Hongli said to him, but he said, "How can you say so evilly? Even if you have a lower reputation, if you give birth to a young prince in the future, you will be able to raise your position. Why bother to feel uncomfortable like this?"

Hongzhou raised his eyebrows and ignored Hongli's words.

Prince Yudao Guanglu said that he was the cousin of his great-grandfather. He had also seen him, and he was a fair and gentle person...

Hongzhou let out a long sigh, patted the dust on his hands, closed his clothes, raised his eyebrows and said, "Fourth brother, the weather is cold, my brother wants to eat the pot of Xidan Paiyue Helou!"

In early winter, I sat by the Haizi for a long time. Hongli was also afraid that Hongzhou would get cold. After listening to this suggestion, he nodded immediately and responded...

Cao family, Xifu.

Because the Cao family had something to do, Wen Jie wanted to say goodbye, but Cao Yong was left. The couple spent a while at the Cao family before leaving. During this period, Li and Chu Yu never asked Nuoniu to come out to meet.

People in the world emphasize "the elder sister-in-law is like a mother", especially the orphans like Wen Jie and Wen Zhi brothers who have no parents.

But my daughter's family is noble. Even if she has already made a small decision and has a engagement, she does not have the reason why her in-laws are on call.

Not to mention that He is about the same age as Niu Niu. He was originally a new wife to come to pay tribute to the elders of the Cao family. If Niu Niu was invited out, she would be a bit too entitled to receive the gift in front of the elders of the Cao family.

Niu Niu also knew that the future uncle and uncle sister-in-law came to the door today. Although she was a little curious, she still stayed honestly in Tianhui's room, and her aunt and nephew made needles and threads.

Tianhui was not uncomfortable with the cold, but had ringworm on her face and plaster on her face, so it was difficult to go out to see guests.

However, when she heard that the fourth aunt came back from the palace, she still couldn't help but said to Niu Niu: "Auntie, the fourth aunt is back. Can we go over and take a look?"

We ate and lived in Qingyuan a few days ago, and our relationship was a little better than when we were young.

Niu Niu was also concerned about Sister Four, but when she glanced at Tianhui's face, she was still a little hesitant.

Tianhui had already called the maid to bring a scarf and hung it on her ear, saying, "This way it will be covered, right?"

Seeing that she was like this, Niu Niu naturally would not object. She called a maid, reported to Wutongyuan, and went to the East Mansion with Tianhui.

Zhao Jia's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have returned from burning incense. When she heard that the imperial edict had been issued, Zhao Jia couldn't help but be happy, but she heard that the prince of the royal family who was accused of marriage to the unnamed royal family was stunned.

"Isn't the third prince of Prince Yu's mansion the same brother of the prince?" Zhao Jia remembered something and asked Chunhua: "I heard in my early years that their prince's mansion was united. Since they were legitimate, they would have to be granted the title of Duke." When she said this, her expression was a little slow.

Chunhua and her husband looked at each other, and it seemed that the old lady thought it was the prince who had already been beside Prince Baotai.

Baotai's original wife died young and left three legitimate princes, the eldest son of the royal family to the third son. After the concubine entered the door, she gave birth to three princes, ranking fifth, seventh, eighth, seventh, and eighth, all died young, leaving the fifth prince.

For the position of prince, Prince Yu's mansion also made a lot of lively, and a lot of gossip was spreading, so Zhao Jia also heard about it.

"It is not the son of Prince Baotai. The third prince is the nephew of Prince Baotai. Two years ago, Prince Baotai lost his title and reached the Prince Yudao branch. The third prince in the imperial edict was the son of Prince Yudao. Perhaps because of his lack of age, he has not yet been granted a title." Cao Xiang said.

Zhao Jia thought of this vaguely and frowned, saying, "Then can these third prince be born? Are the princesses the same mother?"

Cao Xiang shook his head and said, "The prince is now attacking the title of prince, who is the legitimate son of Prince Yudao, and this one is now a concubine."

When Zhao Jia heard this, she felt that her eyes were black and her body couldn't help but shake.

Seeing this, Chunhua immediately stepped forward and supported her.

Zhao Jia raised her eyelids and looked at Chunhua, feeling sick.

The prince's son is a second-class general in charge of the country. It's okay to fool the common people. In the capital where the powerful are crowded, you can meet several "generals" by walking around.

Chunhua's grandfather was a royal general, but the result was not as wealthy as the ordinary Eight Banners' big family.

But you can't say anything about complaining. This is a marriage referred to by the queen's imperial edict, and there is also the favor of the Thirteenth concubine in the middle.

Zhao Jia held her head and said, "Since that's the case, just wait for the decision over there..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard the maid come in and report, "Old lady, the eldest lady of the West Mansion and Miss Ping are here."

Zhao Jia was extremely disappointed, but she was unwilling to let the concubine's son. The concubine's daughter-in-law saw the joke and forced herself to say, "Then please come in."

After a while, Tianhui and Niu Niu entered the house.

Although Niu Niu is a foreign surname, she was born and raised in the Cao family and is just like her younger generation. She has no taboos, so she doesn't need to avoid her when she sees Cao Xiang. She followed Tianhui to invite everyone in the house.

Zhao Jia knew about Tianhui's growth of ringworm. Seeing that she was wearing a scarf, she had to cheer up and ask for a few questions before instructing Chunhua to take their aunt and nephew to see the fourth sister.

Only Cao Xiang was left. Cao Xiang wanted to say goodbye, but was left by Zhao Jia.

After sending the maid out, Zhao Jia took out a veil, began to cover her eyes, and cried, "You know that my father-in-law's family is General Lao Shizi, but it sounds good. The whole family lives a hard life with a salary of hundreds of taels, and they fight for autumn wind everywhere. The fourth sister's life is hard. Now the second and fifth brothers are no longer in the capital. You are the backbone of the mansion, and you can't lose money to your sister. Your sister is no better than your brothers. There is the marriage money left by the old lady, and you still hope that you brothers will add makeup to her."

When Cao Xiang heard this, he couldn't help but feel bitter.

Now that I am nominally in charge, when will I pass by myself?

Could it be that evil person, and I won’t be able to buy a dowry for the fourth sister? Even if I want to be a bad person, I’m afraid I won’t have a chance.

In recent years, on the excuse that the fourth sister did not have the marriage money left by the old lady, Zhao Jia had already prepared a generous value for the fourth sister. Not to mention marrying a royal general, even if she was a Duke, her dowry would not be shabby.

But, as the old lady said, she had plans again.

"With the old lady here, my son will naturally listen to the old lady." Cao Xiang said lightly.
