Chapter 345 What the Hell Is This?
The two laughed for a while, and Mr. Zhou went back and called the court official over. Gu Fei asked Yan'er to watch over, and the court official took the two boxes away after registering in front of Yan'er.
There was another box of pearls and jade that Gu Fei did not touch, and she planned to take them to her own silver shop to sell.
In the evening, in the residence of the Lady of the Guardian of the Country, Shen Qingluan sat in the room and said lightly: "Wang'er has found out everything? Ask him to come in and answer."
After a while, the maid opened the curtain, and Wang'er knelt in the outer room and told Gu Fei everything about how Xiao Yu took out his anger on Gu Fei, beat the yamen runners, and asked the housekeeper Wu to slap himself in the face.
He added, "The prince had eaten at Miss Gu's inn. A few days ago, I heard that housekeeper Wu was beaten to death by the prince's order and his house was raided. The details of the incident are not clear, but it is said that it was also for Miss Gu."
"That's all I have heard."
After listening, Shen Qingluan picked up a Ru kiln teacup and threw it to the ground. The teacup hit the floor and broke into pieces in an instant.
Shen Qingluan bit her silver teeth, "Sure enough, as soon as I saw her enchanting look, I knew she must be a vixen!"
The maid next to her didn't dare to say a word.
Shen Qingluan's chest was heaving, and she waved her hand, and Wang'er quickly retreated.
The maid then let down the curtain and turned to Shen Qingluan to calm her down, "Miss, don't get yourself hurt by those cheap women."
"Didn't they say that the prince can't get close to women before he's 20? I guess Miss Gu hasn't hooked up with the prince yet."
Shen Qingluan spat fiercely, "Bah, she's unworthy, what kind of thing, dares to covet the prince!"
The maid carefully looked at Shen Qingluan's face, "Didn't Madam invite the princess to come the day after tomorrow? The marriage of the two families has long been tacitly agreed. This time the princess comes, it should be made clear."
"Miss, just wait and see."
Shen Qingluan's face was gloomy. She was about to turn 18. Madam Huguo had only one daughter like her, and she had started to consider her marriage a few years ago.
She was of noble status, so Madam Huguo naturally wanted to choose the best husband for her daughter.
In this world, the emperor's women are naturally the most precious, but the emperor has already established a queen, and Mrs. Huguo is reluctant to let her only daughter enter the palace. After thinking about it, she set her sights on the prince of Qi.
Jiangnan is rich, and Donghai County is the fief of the king of Qi, who will be the prince in the future. Marrying the prince will have both wealth and glory, isn't it better than competing with many women in the palace for the emperor?
A few years ago, Mrs. Huguo tried to find out what the princess meant, but the princess said that the prince should not be close to women before he was 20 years old, and there was no rush to discuss marriage, so Mrs. Huguo didn't mention it again.
After that, Mrs. Huguo also considered other families, but those who were worthy of the family background were all in the capital. Mrs. Huguo didn't want her daughter to marry far away, and those people were not comparable to the prince of Qi in terms of power and talent. For this reason, Shen Qingluan's age was dragged up day by day
At the spring banquet a few days ago, the princess finally gave in and said that she would start to discuss marriage for the prince.
It takes about half a year to go through the whole process of marriage proposal, engagement, and six ceremonies. After half a year, the prince will get married just after his birthday.
Mrs. Huguo immediately tried to test the waters, and the princess was also interested. The two of them talked back and forth for a long time, and they were just about to make it clear.
When she came back, Mrs. Huguo told Shen Qingluan to put her heart at ease, saying that she was just waiting for the prince's house to come and propose marriage.
