Extraordinary Marriage (2)

After Liang Fang entered the palace, she lived in the Jiaofang Hall.

Queen Liang loves this niece of her parents. Liang Fang has a pretty face, is smart and cute, and has a very good education. With Liang Fang's family background, it is not difficult to marry a good husband.

Mrs. Liang laughed in a low voice: "To be honest, since Fang'er and the hairpin, there are quite a few families who come to propose marriage. The highest family is the legitimate grandson of the Secretariat of the Ministry of Personnel, and the legitimate son of the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion, all of whom are outstanding young men."

"However, I have not responded to these marriages for the time being. The Empress is just trying to make the decision on Fang'er's marriage."

Queen Liang obviously had a plan in her mind and said to Mrs. Liang softly: "Sister-in-law, you and I are not outsiders. I don't have to hide anything from you if you have anything to say."

"The story of Fang'er entering the palace to study was proposed by the Queen Mother. Although the Queen Mother did not say it clearly, I figured out what the Queen Mother meant, and thought I was willing to let Fang'er marry the Pei family."

Pei’s brothers are three, Pei Nian, the youngest, is thirteen years old this year, Pei Xiang is fourteen years old this year, and he is a little younger. Pei Yuan, the oldest, is sixteen years old this year, and is the same age as Liang Fang.

Mrs. Liang often enters the palace and is quite familiar with the Pei brothers.

As soon as Queen Liang opened her mouth, Mrs. Liang knew it in her mind: "Is the Empress saying that it was Prince Pei Pei Yuan?"

Queen Liang nodded slightly and said softly: "Of course, the Pei family is not as good as the Minister of Personnel's Mansion, nor is it as good as the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion. However, the Pei family has already taken shape. Pei Zhang and Pei Jue brothers are now both garrison commanders. Pei Yuan is Pei Jue's eldest son and grew up in the palace. The emperor will definitely not treat him in the future."

"When Pei Yuan takes the errand in the future, he will stay in the capital."

"I don't talk about this, just look at Pei Yuan himself. He was eleven years old when he entered the palace, and he was sixteen this year. I can see him growing up. He is older than his younger brothers and sisters, and looks like an elder brother. He is very caring for Pei Nian and the others on weekdays. Moreover, he is generous and upright, gentle in character, and outstanding in studying and practicing martial arts. He is really compatible with Fang'er."

"If my sister-in-law is happy with this marriage, I will go and say to my mother and ask her to give her marriage."

"If you are not happy, it doesn't matter. Fang'er is my nephew's niece, and I also hope that she can marry a husband who wishes her."

Mrs. Liang was indeed hesitant and thought for a while and said, "I can't make up my mind for such a big deal. After I return to the house, I will discuss it and go to the palace to reply to the empress in a while."

Queen Liang nodded with a smile.

...

Mrs. Liang returned to Liang's mansion with great worries.

Mrs. Liang Shangshu learned about this soon.

Shangshu Liang was in the officialdom for many years and was quite decisive. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let your daughter-in-law enter the palace in two days and tell the queen that he said that the Liang family is willing to have this marriage."

Mrs. Liang was a little reluctant and whispered: "The legitimate grandson of the Minister of Personnel and the legitimate son of the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion are actually good."

Shangshu Liang glanced at his old wife: "Don't look at the Pei family's house that is not as good as the Minister of Personnel's Mansion or the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion. You have to think about the future. With the Empress Dowager here, the Pei family will not fall."

"The emperor is in his prime, and it is no problem to take care of a few nephews in the future. If you look at it again in five or ten years, you will know the benefits of this marriage."

In addition, for the sake of Queen Liang in the palace, the Liang family should also make a marriage.

Queen Liang has never had a son, and the emperor refused to choose a concubine, so she hangs the harem for Queen Liang. What is rare is that Queen Pei is generous and gentle, never accuses, and is very kind to Queen Liang.

The Liang family and the Pei family were also showing kindness to Empress Dowager Pei. The nephew of Empress Dowager Pei married the Liang family's legitimate daughter, and the more in-laws, he naturally became closer.

Mrs. Liang figured out the truth and thought the marriage was good, so she nodded quickly.

When it comes to getting married, you have to ask Liang Fang about her feelings.

After going to the study to rest, Liang Fang returned to the house. Mrs. Liang went to her daughter's boudoir, took her daughter's hand, and asked about Liang Fang's life in the palace.

Liang Fang was lively and pretty. When she smiled, there were two small smiles on her cheeks: "I live in the Pepper House Hall, and the food and clothing cost is not much worse than that of the princess. The Empress is my dear aunt and treats me very kindly. The people in the palace are very attentive to me."

Mrs. Liang was quite pleased and patted Liang Fang's hand gently: "That's good. Fang'er, you are already at the age of marriage and have reached the age of discussing marriage. I want to ask you first, do you have a boy you like?"

Liang Fang's pretty face turned red, she bit her lip and said nothing.

Mrs. Liang's heart sank slightly. Looking at her daughter's appearance, she clearly had a young man she liked. In this way, there would be something wrong with getting married to the Pei family.

Mrs. Liang suppressed her chaotic mood and asked softly: "There are no outsiders here. Do you have any thoughts? Just talk to your mother."

Liang Fang was stunned for a moment before whispering: "A few days ago, when the palace celebrated the Lantern Festival, Pei Yuan personally made a lantern and gave it to me quietly."

Mrs. Liang: “…”

Mrs. Liang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and raised the corner of her mouth: "Young Master Pei is interested in you, what do you think?"

Liang Fang twisted her finger for a while and told the truth: "I went to Renhe Palace to pay my respects. I often saw him. Pei Nian and He Yao and others were talkative and naughty, and they were quite noisy."

"Pei Yuan is different from them. He is the eldest brother. He doesn't speak much on weekdays, but he is careful and considerate. He takes good care of his two younger brothers and Asi. Even if he takes good care of He Yao, he always takes good care of him."

"In the past, he only said hello when he saw me. Since I and the hairpin, he has talked to me more."

Living in the palace, every word and action has many eyes to look at, and it is impossible to teach and receive personal experience. The young man has just begun to fall in love, and the girl is in love with her. She just looks at each other for a few more words and says a few more words.

On the day of the Lantern Festival, Pei Yuan made a lantern himself, asked Pei Si to send it to the Jiaofang Hall.

Liang Fang took the lantern and felt sweet in her heart.

At this time, the mother asked, and Liang Fang blushed and told the matter, her eyes full of shy light.

Liang Datai's eyes were filled with smiles and he whispered: "To be honest, the Empress summoned me to the palace a few days ago and mentioned your marriage to Pei Yuan."

Liang Fang's face turned redder and she whispered: "The incident of Pei Yuan sending me the lanterns is not promoted. However, when the Queen went to my dormitory, she saw an extra lantern, so she probably guessed some."

Mrs. Liang: “…”

No wonder Queen Liang suddenly mentioned this marriage, and it turned out that she had noticed it.

Queen Liang was really subtle and insisted on not saying anything.

Mrs. Liang laughed in silence: "Now it seems that this is a ready-made marriage. Well, I will come to the palace to see the Queen Mother tomorrow. The Queen Mother will go to Renhe Palace and ask the Queen Mother to give you a marriage."
