"Ms. Cousin, you've received the award."
Chu Jingjing said affectionately, "I can see that my cousin is well-meaning and has good luck. She has won the favor of King Jin. In the future, Lian'er and I will have to rely on my cousin."
Han Youning smiled and said, "Don't believe the rumors outside. But Lian'er is my cousin, so if a sister can help, she will naturally help."
Chu Jingjing smiled more and more sincerely, "Thank you in advance, Miss Biao!"
Han Youning asked, "My eldest cousin is not in good health yet? I haven't seen her in the past few days."
Chu Jingjing curled her lips and said, "It's not that she's feeling uncomfortable physically, it's that she's feeling uncomfortable in her heart. My cousin doesn't know that in her boudoir, and what is said outside is not very nice. Everyone said that Mr. Luo Liu's hand placement was not serious.
place……"
She lowered her voice, covered her mouth and said, "You said these words have reached the ears of the prince, and you can still marry her without any grudges?"
Han Youning sighed, "So many people have seen it, and it's not easy to keep it secret. But even if we fail to get along with the prince, if the Luo family is willing to propose marriage, we can still keep this reputation as a good friend."
Chu Jingjing sneered, "You don't know, Luo Mansion didn't even think about coming to propose marriage. They said they had asked a senior monk to figure it out. The day the eldest lady was born was on the day of Sui Po, which meant the Lord was very evil. Because she was born in a general family with the evil spirit of Ding Guo Gong.
, it’s no big deal. But if you leave the government and get married, it will hinder your husband’s family.”
Han Youning was surprised. Luo Yongliang casually said that he was the grandson of Luo Shangshu, but in fact his status could not be lower, and his reputation was not good. There were not many ladies who were willing to marry him. He actually didn't want the daughter-in-law Han Qingwan offered to him?
"The husband's family... If word like this spreads out, what will happen to my cousin's marriage?"
Chu Jingjing echoed, "Yes! The old lady had no intention of negotiating a marriage with Luo Mansion, but it's not a good thing that she didn't discuss the marriage because of such an ominous reason."
She had a sad look on her face, "Lian'er is now at the age where she is planning to get married. How can it be good if the eldest lady's marriage is kept delayed and Lian'er can't get over her to discuss the marriage first."
--
Only Xiao Wen and Han Qinglian were present in Chunhui Hall, and Han Qingwan did not come.
Little Wen was so angry at the rumors outside that he didn't sleep all night, and he was even more upset when he saw Han Youning coming over. "We can't afford what Miss Chen has come to do with her condescension. Don't be careless, the Duke of the country will do something wrong."
You also lost your title."
Han Youning sat down next to Han Qinglian and said with a smile, "The second lady was joking, the Duke's title will definitely be secure. As for the second master's resignation, this was the decision of Prince Jin, and the emperor approved it with his own pen.
If anyone questions it, it is a crime of disrespect."
Little Wen opened her mouth, but she didn't dare to say anything more on the topic of resignation.
If her dissatisfaction reaches the emperor's ears, it will be all over.
If it reaches the ears of King Jin... the consequences may be even more serious.
Little Wen said coldly, "This is the first time I've seen someone as arrogant as you living under someone else's roof."
Han Youning smiled and said, "This is also the first time for me to live under someone else's care. I don't know that this is a life-threatening matter."
Mrs. Han said softly, "Okay, don't argue anymore. Things just happened to happen that day. There were misunderstandings. How can there be so much hatred in my family."
Han Youning praised, "What the old lady said is very true, so in the future, we should talk about everything in person to avoid any further discomfort."
Little Wen's teeth were itching with hatred.
The old lady's face could not be said to be too good, and the atmosphere in the room was stagnant for a while.
A maid came in and said, "Old madam, the victory at the border is great, and the palace has come to reward me. The second master is in the outer courtyard to receive the father-in-law who has delivered the order."
Han Youning stood up suddenly and asked urgently, "A great victory at the border? Did Duke Ding win the battle?"
The maid said, "That's what the father-in-law who delivered the decree said."
Tears welled up in Han Youning's heart.
There was no such great victory at the border in the previous life. At this time in the previous life, the Southwest Army had already run out of food, so Xiyong only defended and did not attack and used delaying tactics, hoping to drag the Southwest Army to death. My father held on for more than a month without getting any follow-up food.
, then he gritted his teeth and attacked forcefully. Although he won the battle, it was a miserable victory.
The good news in the previous life was received more than a month later. It was already winter at that time, and the sky was covered with snow. The soldier who delivered the good news died after delivering the good news. Some people said that he starved to death.
Little Wen's face was filled with joy. It was a great victory at the border. Maybe the emperor was so happy that he wanted to reinstate Han Rui to his post.
She stood up neatly and ordered the maid to notify Han Qingwan to receive the order, while she went back to change the clothes for the order.
Before leaving, she glanced at Han Youning proudly and said, "The people receiving the order are all from the Han family, so just go back."
Finally beat her in a game!
--
In front of the meeting hall of the outer courtyard, an incense table has been set up and a tapestry has been laid.
There was a large black lacquered and gold box placed on the tapestry, and a group of eunuchs stood guarding it, some holding large and small boxes in their hands.
Han Rui was wearing straight clothes and spoke respectfully to the leading eunuch who was delivering the order.
Mrs. Han had already changed into her official uniform and hurried over with little Wen and her son and two daughters.
Even though she put on makeup and makeup, Han Qingwan still couldn't hide her haggard look. She worked hard to make sure there was no fault in her appearance, so as not to spread any bad words to the palace.
The eunuch who delivered the order glanced at the person who came, "Is everyone here already?"
Han Rui cupped his hands and said, "Back to father-in-law, everyone is here."
The eunuch who delivered the decree took out the imperial decree and said, "Then let's declare the decree."
Everyone knelt down in front of the incense table, but the eunuch who delivered the order asked, "Who is Chen Youning?"
Han Rui was stunned, "Chen Youning is my cousin who lives in our house..."
The eunuch who delivered the order showed displeasure on his face and said in a high voice, "But what the Za family said is not clear? All the masters in the house are here to listen to the order! Or is my cousin in your house not considered a master?"
Han Rui hurriedly handed over his hands to plead guilty, "It's a low-ranking official...it's not a common man, so I'll send someone to invite him!"
He said to the boy beside him, "Hurry up and ask Miss Cousin to come over and receive the order!"
The boy ran away in a hurry.
The eunuch who delivered the order said angrily, "The Za family has learned a lot now, so it's no wonder that the rumors are not good."
The expressions of everyone kneeling on the ground changed. If these words reached the emperor's ears, that would be a big deal!
Han Rui hurriedly took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve, took two steps forward on his knees, and stuffed it into the hand of the eunuch who passed the order without leaving a trace.
"My father-in-law Mingjian, Miss Cousin is naturally the mistress of the house, but she didn't come for a long time. The common people didn't turn around for a while and forgot to invite her."
The eunuch who conveyed the order took the banknote and said, "Second Master Han is currently at home and has no official duties. It's better to be more careful and considerate when doing things. There are many noble people in the imperial city, and you may offend someone if you are not careful."
Han Rui looked embarrassed, but he still said yes.
Everyone just knelt on the ground and waited. The imperial edict had been taken out. Seeing that the edict was coming in person, they did not have the courage to stand up.
