Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

An Ran said: "I wonder what father wants from me."

Mr. Xie said: "That's right, your eldest brother is now at the age where he's looking for a marriage. I want to ask you if you can hold a flower viewing party to help him find a marriage. In fact, it's not just him. I'm thinking, In the future, I hope you can help me find good marriage arrangements for my brothers and sisters in my family. After all, you are the princess now, with a high status and face. It is better for you to come forward to find the marriage than for me and your mother to come forward."

Although Mr. Xie Dalang had made his intentions clear at the moment, he naturally would not reveal his plans. After all, he wanted to let An Ran know that he wanted to use her to build momentum for Xie Dalang and use her as a tiger skin. Don't be reluctant.

So he only said this, and also involved other people. He said this to pick out Xie Dalang. It was obviously for Xie Dalang, but after saying this, An Ran would think that he was thinking about all the children in the family, not just for him. For the sake of Xie Dalang, An Ran would not want to help because of the bad relationship with the concubine brothers. After saying this, An Ran would also agree for the sake of Xie Siniang and Xie Wulang. Otherwise, if he did not hold a banquet for Xie Dalang, he would not want to give Xie Siniang and Xie Siniang a banquet in the future. Xie Wulang held a banquet, otherwise don't blame him for tampering with their marriage. You must know that their marriage is in his hands. If An Ran wants to have a clear mind, it is best to listen to him.

But how could Mr. Xie's petty calculations escape An Ran's eyes? Besides, even if An Ran hadn't guessed that she would help Xie Siniang or even Xie Wuniang, etc., she wouldn't be able to help her aunt's children, so no matter what Mr. Xie had No matter what thoughts, An Ran is an impossibility.

An Ran didn't expect that Mr. Xie would threaten Xie Siniang and Xie Wulang's marriage, but even if she knew about it, she was not afraid. After all, An Ran had long wanted to deal with Mr. Xie. When Xie Siniang and Xie Wulang discussed the marriage, Mr. Xie still doesn’t know what will happen to him. What is An Ran afraid of?

So after listening to Mr. Xie's words, An Ran said calmly: "The prince is not feeling well and needs to rest. It is impossible for the prince's palace to hold any banquet."

An Ran's words were half true and half false.

The truth is that Prince Li's Mansion did not hold a large banquet because of Prince Li's poor health, so as not to disturb him.

As for Prince Li, his health has been much better recently. It is not impossible to hold a banquet. After all, Prince Li almost obeys An Ran. When An Ran said that he wanted to hold a banquet, Prince Li could not object. After all, the palace was originally because of Due to his health, he never held banquets and looked very deserted. Prince Li was afraid that being so deserted would prevent him from retaining An Ran, so Prince Li would agree to any request An Ran made as long as it was not impossible or excessive.

Mr. Xie didn't know that An Ran's words were half true and half false. He was dumbfounded as soon as he heard An Ran's words. He had previously thought about many kinds of plans for how to respond to An Ran's rejection, just waiting for success. Now it's fine. , people carried out Prince Li, but he didn't dare to go to Prince Li and argue about it, so wasn't he dumbfounded at the moment?

An Ran wanted this effect, and she knew she couldn't refuse, because if she refused, Mr. Xie would definitely find various reasons to pester her, so she brought out Prince Li. She knew that as long as she mentioned Prince Li, Mr. Xie would There was nothing we could do.

Sure enough, after listening to An Ran's words, Mr. Xie ran out of ideas for a while, but he was obviously not someone who gave up easily. He thought about it and said, "The prince's palace is not suitable, what about your county master's palace? Your Majesty is not a feudal lord. You have become the county lord and have been given a house. Will the county lord’s mansion be made for you? Then go to the county lord’s mansion and hold a banquet.”

An Ran saw that Master Xie was still unwilling to give up, and couldn't bear to look directly at him, and said speechlessly: "I don't live in that county lord's mansion and I don't care about it. There is nothing inside except the janitor. I don't even know how deep the grass is. Are you going there to hold a banquet and make people laugh?"

Xie Yuanniang and others persuaded her, saying that she should tidy up the county lord's mansion so that it would not be deserted for a long time. It would be too laborious to clean up if she wanted to live there someday. After all, when the emperor gave it to her, the mansion was still very good. In the past, there were people taking care of it, so it was not left in ruins.

Originally, An Ran had thought about buying a few servants to clean it as Xie Yuanniang and others said. After all, what they said was right. If it is not maintained for a long time, once the inside becomes deserted, if you want to use it one day, you can take care of it again. It's going to be trouble.

She was thinking like that, but unfortunately that day (or was it luck?), she met Mrs. Xie who also came to see her. Seeing that her eldest daughter and others were also there, she talked about asking An Ran to clean up the county lord's mansion. Mrs. Xie Then he also intervened and said: "Yes, your eldest sister and the others are right. It is better to hire someone to maintain the house. It just so happens that your brother has grown up slowly and always wants to go out to play. I don't want to go anywhere else." Don't worry, just go and have fun at your county lord's mansion. No one will care about him. I think he is willing to go, but since we have our people to look after him, I feel more at ease."

When An Ran heard what she said, she planned to hire a few servants to clean the house, but she immediately gave up the idea. She didn't want to spend money to hire people to maintain the house every day, and it would eventually become a place for Xie Wulang to have fun. Besides, If things go bad in her own house, Mrs. Xie might blame herself and feel that it is all her fault. This kind of anger is very likely to happen. After all, in the eyes of a mother who dotes on her children, Her children will never be wrong, and the faults are all others - so after Madam Xie said that, An Ran stopped cleaning up the house, so as not to have a clean house there because there would always be people planning to build a house.

Unexpectedly, she took the right precautions. No, Mr. Xie also had his mind set on the County Lord's Mansion.

"Besides, I am Princess Li. If I really want to hold a banquet, I won't hold it at the prince's palace. I will go to my own county chief's palace to hold it. For those who don't know, you might think that my relationship with Prince Li is not on good terms. By then, the Queen Mother, What should I do if Your Majesty wants to talk to me?"

After listening to her previous words, Mr. Xie wanted to persuade her again and let her clean up for the time being. After the tidying up, it would not be too late to hold a flower-viewing banquet. But after hearing her next words, he thought so, and he didn't He dared to offend the Queen Mother and the Emperor, so he had to give up the idea.

He couldn't go to the County Lord's Mansion, and he couldn't hold a banquet at Prince Li's Mansion, but he was reluctant to part with the benefits brought by his status as Princess Anran, so Mr. Xie couldn't help but worry, and then said: "Forget it, I'll think about it again. , in short, you are a princess, with such a good status, it would be a waste not to support your brothers and sisters at home, so you should also think about it. "

An Ran couldn't help but smile coldly after hearing this. She knew that Mr. Xie was still determined and planned to go back and think about it again. It was estimated that even his aunt would help him think about it.
