Chapter 743: Wu Zijuan has a clear understanding

"I said there is a chance, but there is some trouble." Feng Ziying looked at the beautiful girl in front of her, and felt a little emotional in her heart.

After being surprised, Baochai looked at her lover's expression and suddenly became anxious. Could it be that there are some unknown hidden worries about this kind of thing?

"Brother Feng, what is going on? Can you tell me?" Baochai calmed down. She is not the kind of person who loses her true heart when she is angry or angry. It can be said that if Feng Ziying hadn't stepped into her heart step by step. In her heart, she has completely invaded her heart, and she will not be easily captured by him.

Feng Ziying also knew that Baochai had a calm mind and there was no need to hide such things from her, so she briefly introduced what King Zhongshun told her that day.

"You are saying that you and the emperor raised the issue of ennobling the second wife, but the emperor did not comment, but the outside world knew about it?" Baochai's voice trembled slightly.

“Well, I’ve known for a long time that matters in the palace cannot be kept secret, but it’s a bit strange that it spread so quickly, and it also fell into the ears of the concubine, and even the concubine came to ask about it.”

Feng Ziying didn't tell Baochai too deeply, but Wu Xun or the officials in the court knew a little bit about the looming gap between the emperor and the emperor. It's just how deep it is involved and to what extent, this is not Ordinary people can get a glimpse of it.

Although Baochai didn't deliberately inquire about this, she could understand it as long as Feng Ziying paid a little attention.

"Brother Feng, I don't quite understand." Although Baochai could figure it out a little bit, she didn't dare to speculate on matters related to the Tian family.

"On the Emperor's side, I estimate that although he is deliberately suppressing it, it is simply because my situation is too special. Not long ago, I was pursuing the title of Xijue for my eldest uncle. Now I want to grant the title of second uncle again. I am afraid that it will attract some other people. I objected, so I just wanted to delay it for a while, but the concubine suddenly appeared, and it was obviously the Emperor’s intention behind it. I was afraid that this would easily make the Emperor suspicious and unhappy. Maybe the Emperor would, because of the Emperor’s wishes, If you pursue the title, it will leave a bad impression on the emperor."

Feng Ziying sighed, "But if such an opportunity is missed, the emperor may deliberately suppress it for a while. I'm afraid of delaying my sister and making her anxious."

Baochai was also moved in her heart and felt a little regretful, but she said softly and firmly: "Brother Feng, this matter must be considered in the long run. If the emperor is offended because of this matter, it will be more than the gain. Little sister is not here. Don't rush, the Shen sisters were only nineteen before they got married, and the younger sister is only sixteen this year, so even if she waits until nineteen like the Shen sisters, the younger sister can afford to wait!"

"Ah?" Feng Ziying didn't expect Baochai to be so resolute, and even used Shen Yixiu as an example, which made him feel a little touched and shocked. It seems that the girls he chose have their own uniqueness, and they are not the kind of people who just follow what others say or say. A woman who sees small profits and forgets the righteousness.

"Brother Feng, these are my sincere words. I hope that Brother Feng will have a good life. How can you delay Brother Feng's bright future because of these trivial matters?" Baochai's tone became more determined, "If it is affected by the matter of my little sister, Brother Feng has a bright future, so how can my little sister have the face to marry Brother Feng? From now on, my little sister will not be able to feel at ease for the rest of her life!"

After talking about this, Feng Ziying felt that she was being too preoccupied and shook her head, "This matter is not as dangerous as my sister thought. I have a rough understanding of the Emperor's intentions. The emperor must also understand. I have to think carefully about whether there are other meanings here. But after all, the emperor's meaning has to be passed through by the emperor, so it doesn't matter. There is no need to rush to a conclusion, I would rather wait and take a look before saying..."

This made Baochai a little confused. She looked at her lover and asked, "What does Brother Feng mean by waiting and taking a look?"

"Isn't it the Chinese New Year soon? Isn't Concubine Jia going home to visit her relatives?" A smile appeared on Feng Ziying's face, "I guess Concubine Jia will be back in two days, and she may want to summon me. Maybe I can get some information from her. What’s the gain?”

Baochai looked at this man for a long time and then said quietly: "Feng Lang, I just hope that you won't take unnecessary risks for my affairs. The imperial concubine is going to visit the bride, and my aunt came to borrow money for this reason. Let's talk about it." We have borrowed it once before, but as long as we can get it now, mother and I will not refuse to borrow it. I understand that my brother is a little resentful. He just can't stand the Jia family's overindulgence towards Baoyu. It is said that King Jia Shi and Xue Yirong were both prosperous and devastated, but in fact everyone in the family knew that the Shi family and the Xue family had long been in decline, and they were all supported by the Wang family and the Jia family. Otherwise, what happened to my brother in Jinling a few years ago would have happened. imprison,…"

Feng Ziying looked at the other party and nodded slightly. This girl is a transparent person and can understand the doorways here. She is far more sober than some short-sighted or arrogant people.

"It is said that they visited the Wang family in the past few years and the Jia family in the next few years, but the younger sister is not so sure. Why the uncle went to Denglai, the younger sister cannot see it, but when the eldest sister entered the palace, the younger sister felt that it was not so It’s simple. It’s just that my little sister is short-sighted about many things here and can’t understand them clearly. But after all, we, a girl from the fourth family of Jinling, have a capable person. Even if we are in a tight situation, we still have to support ourselves..."

Feng Ziying almost gave Baochai a thumbs up. This girl is really shrewd and clear. Even though there are many clouds and fog in the court, it is impossible to see the whole picture, but she can also see some clues. There are not many Baochai's understanding and experience are already valuable.

"My little sister has also heard that some people say that we, noble families, are born on a narrow road. We can only rely on our loyalty to the Heavenly Family and the rewards given to us by the Heavenly Family. If we leave this foundation, we will be water without a source. A tree without roots, this is not unreasonable, but if it is like the relationship between the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor that you mentioned, Brother Feng, it will be too difficult. If you are not careful and get involved too deeply in one party, if you make a mistake, I am afraid that It’s a big disaster.”

 Feng Ziying couldn't help but hold Baochai's hand, looking at him softly, giving him encouragement and comfort.

"My sister is a sensible person, but there are some things that we outsiders cannot see through now, but there are some things that will be exposed eventually. It doesn't matter. Although Brother Yu was born in Wushun, he has now got rid of Wushun. With Xun's background, the second-level Jinshi, the imperial scholar, and the Hanlin Academy's compilation background, no one would regard Brother Yu as a mere disciple of Wuxun, right? What's more, Brother Yu still has several important ministers and masters. , I’m afraid it would be difficult for anyone to use his identity as a disciple of Wu Xun to characterize Brother Yu, so Brother Yu knows what he is doing, so don’t worry, sister,..."

Seeing that Feng Ziying was confident, Xue Baochai felt much more at ease. After thinking for a while, he said: "In short, Feng Lang must not take risks because of things like my little sister. My little sister can afford to wait, whether it's one year, two years, or three years." No matter if it’s five years, my little sister is willing to wait!”

"Don't worry, sister, it won't reach that point. That stupid brother really has no face to see my sister." Feng Ziying held Baochai's hands and pulled her closer to her body. Baochai's cheeks were red, but she still snuggled into Feng Ziying's arms. He said softly: "What does Brother Feng think about aunt's borrowing money...?"

Feng Ziying hesitated for a moment, "I shouldn't say anything about such things, but since my sister asked about it, I still feel that the relationship between the Jia family needs to be maintained. After all, the three families of King Jia and Xue are still tied together because of a little money. If the matter breaks out, it will only make the outsiders laugh, and it is probably a bit difficult for aunt to accept. After all, the Jia family has helped the Xue family a lot, and she and Mrs. Nian'er are also sisters, but if she can do whatever she wants, If it is inappropriate, expressing your attitude appropriately and giving a discount can also help prevent some greedy people from taking advantage of them..."

"Little sister understands. In fact, little sister means the same thing. If it weren't for her mother's face, little sister would have wanted to let her brother make trouble first and then make a fuss." Baochai's spiritual eyes flashed. With a hint of mischief, "But Feng Lang is right, we can't let the outside world think that we, the fourth oldest family in Jinling, are having internal strife. The inside of Jia's Mansion is like a sieve, and bad things can spread throughout the house in the blink of an eye." Outside the house,…”

Feng Ziying was startled and then suddenly realized: "It turns out that my sister had this idea, but Wen Long was actually used by her. Is my sister really trying to trick Wen Long? Are you not afraid that Wen Long will know?"

"So what if you know? My brother has such a temperament. Even if he is seen through, it doesn't matter. He shows his true colors, and the Jia family is sometimes hard to accept."

Baochai never said anything about other people's rights and wrongs in front of others, but in front of Feng Ziying, she felt relaxed and without any restraint.

"Wen Long has become much better than before. Even Brother Yu finds it incredible. Although his temper is sometimes a little reckless and impatient, he is no longer Wu Xia A Meng compared to the past. I guess if he gets married, he will be more stable. That's right." Feng Ziying seemed to think of something, "Have you decided on the Xia family?"

"It's settled." Baochai said with a blush on her cheeks, "Brother said that if she doesn't get married soon, he's afraid it will affect my younger sister..."

"Wen Long is a knowledgeable person. He has a heart. Brother Yu must remember this sentiment." Feng Ziying's tone was a bit complicated.

I don’t know if Xue Pan married Xia Jingui in this life, will it be like in the book "A Dream of Red Mansions"?

But now that he has become his brother-in-law, for Baochai's sake, he will not let him make the same mistake again. He must surrender the Xia family and let him keep it in a good manner.
