Chapter 258 No one can protect you (2)

Recently, more and more people in the capital have started to sell their children. She frowned. Even if the capital is like this, how difficult is life in other places?

Cheng'anhou's Mansion was not too far from Jingting's Mansion, and when the carriage was about to arrive at Cheng'anhou's Mansion, it stopped. Ban Hua raised the curtain and took a look, "Why did you stop here?"

"Princess, there are a few carriages parked in front, and this place is blocked."

Banhua lifted the curtain and stepped out of the carriage to take a look. There were several carriages parked there. Looking at the regulations of these carriages, the grades of the people riding in the carriages might not be too low. She handed the hand warmer to the guard beside the carriage, took another hand stove from the servant girl, stepped on the stool and stepped off the carriage, looking at the dirty snow on the ground, it seemed that the people who came to Cheng'anhou's mansion were still there. Not a lot.

"Forget it, let's go back." Banhua didn't like dealing with these people the least, so he turned around and planned to go back.

"I've seen the princess." A young man in green clothes trotted up to Banhua, and respectfully gave her a big gift, "Please come inside."

Banhua stood on the horse stool and raised his chin towards several carriages, "Does your Lord Hou have time now?"

"Others may not have time to come now, but you must have time to come here," the servant said with a flattering smile on his face, "Master Hou has already issued an order, if the princess comes, you must We will welcome you in as soon as possible, and if you are a bit slack, let the little ones pack their bags and leave the Marquis Mansion by themselves."

"Nonsense," Ban Hua said with a smile, "Is your Lord Hou such an unreasonable person?"

"Master Hou is usually very reasonable, but when it comes to your matter, there is no reason to talk about it," the boy rubbed his head and smiled sheepishly. He turned his head and looked at the maid holding Banhua's umbrella, and hurriedly bowed down. She didn't dare to look at her head, the maids around the princess were all so good-looking, it made people's eyes dazzled.

Rong Xia was sitting in the main hall, and said these words with these adults. The few people in front of me are all factions that support the prince. After the prince was placed under house arrest in the East Palace, these adults have been running for the prince. It was not until King Ning suppressed the officials of the prince's line that they restrained themselves.

The reason for these people's visit didn't need to be opened, Rong Xia knew it was nothing more than hearing the rumors outside and wanted him, an "illegitimate child", to help the orthodox prince speak well in front of the emperor. Rong Xia felt that these people were a bit ridiculous, no wonder the prince developed such a temperament, it turned out that he was influenced by the people around him.

King Ning is in great power now, they don't want to think about how to deal with King Ning, they only know how to find someone to intercede for the prince blindly. The best method should not be to pull King Ning off his horse, or to find a way to make His Majesty disappointed in King Ning, and then they go to intercede for the Prince, so that it will be easier for His Majesty to release the Prince?

It seems that among the people in the prince's lineage, Shi Chonghai is the best and most capable person. Unfortunately, he is too complacent and has made Emperor Yunqing dissatisfied. Now he is unable to help the prince, so he can only watch helplessly. Watching King Ning throw his prestige in the court.

"The Marquis of Cheng'an has a dignified appearance and the manner of a gentleman. The crown prince often praises the Marquis to his ministers," an official said, "and highly praises the literary talent of the Marquis."

These people never leave the prince's words. Although Rong Xia was very moved by their loyalty to the prince, he was determined not to be moved in the slightest.

"Master Hou," the housekeeper walked in, "Master Fuller has arrived."

Hearing this, Rong Xia put down the teacup in her hand, stood up and said to the officials present: "My lords, Rong's fiancée has arrived. My lords, sit down for a while, and Rong will come as soon as he goes."

No matter how thick-skinned the adults were, they were embarrassed to interrupt the relationship between the fiancee. Although they saw that Rong Xia didn't let go of his pleading for the prince, at least he didn't refuse, which made them still hold hope in their hearts.

"I'm waiting to say goodbye."

"My lords, please don't be polite."

After some farewell and retention, several adults finally walked out of the gate. They didn't go far when they saw a group of people coming in at the main entrance. The leading woman was only seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a snow-white cloak that blended in with the heavy snow. A group of beautiful maidservants surrounded her, like a fairy concubine traveling with extraordinary style.

"That's..." The leading official stopped, turned around and said to the people behind him, "Let's wait."

They were going to wait for Banhua to pass by before they went out. The butler who sent them out bowed his head and stood respectfully behind them.

Unexpectedly, Ban Hua, who was about to pass by, saw them. She stopped, took off the cloak hat she was wearing, and nodded slightly to the adults. The adults were flattered and bowed their hands in return, and it was not until Ban Hua walked over that they slowly recovered.

When they looked over again, they saw that Lord Rong had already welcomed Princess Fule, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, who really envied others.

"My lords, please." The housekeeper smiled and made a gesture of invitation to several people.

The adults came back to their senses, and hurriedly walked out of the Rong's house with a smile. After leaving the door, they smiled wryly and said goodbye to each other, there was nothing else to do.

The entire capital knew that His Majesty valued this wedding, so those who had contacts with the Ban family spent a lot of money when they gave the makeup gifts. Jewelry, ancient books and picture books were sent to Ban's house one after another.

With nearly ten days before the two weddings, some people have already begun to speculate about how much the dowry will be for Princess Fule, and how much will be the dowry gift from the Marquis of Cheng'an?

There were even some dandies who had a good relationship with Ban Huai and began to bet on whether Ban Huai would cry when he brought Ban Hua to marry, and whether he would hold his daughter and refuse to let her marry. It was originally an ordinary noble family wedding, but because Emperor Yunqing gave two unmarried couples a separate palace, and the rumors that Cheng Anhou was the emperor's illegitimate son leaked out, this wedding became very eye-catching. stand up.

The Yan family and the Shi family didn't have much reaction to this reaction, but the Xie family was rather strange, specially prepared a generous gift and sent it to the Jingting mansion. Everyone knew that Ban Xie's family was at odds, but it was beyond everyone's expectation that Xie's family would send such a generous person to Ban's family.

It was only later that someone remembered that the Ban family had borrowed Dr. Xie's family not to mention the past suspicions some time ago. Although they only saved the life of Mr. Xie's family and not their lifelines, but in such a case, no one except gods could save their lifelines. So I can't blame the work and home.

With Xie Jia Dalang being injured to such an extent, he was able to save his life, which is already regarded as the doctor of the Ban family's medical skills.
