Chapter 154 154. Prince Consort
"If I become the prince-in-law, in a short period of time the government will be like the moon in the sky to me. I can see it but cannot touch it. If I don't have these foundations of the Wen family in hand, how many days do you think I can survive in the princess's mansion like a wolf's den?" ?
The most powerful thing about Princess Changlin is that she holds the economic lifeline of the royal family. If he wants to gain favor, he must start from this place, otherwise the road ahead will be difficult.
Thinking that his future Qingyun Road is nothing more than a business in another place, Wen Jingsong can still give it up, "Okay. What's your third condition?"
Wen walked smoothly, and Wen Jingsong did not hesitate.
From this point of view, he is more like Wen Jingsong's son than Wen Mengsheng, and he can cut through the mess with the same sharp knife.
"Third, I want to meet the Duke of the country, alone."
The word alone was spoken very clearly, almost with gritted teeth.
After this battle, he has understood clearly that the Wen family is now nothing more than mediocre in the eyes of powerful people, but he is different. He wants to let Duke Wei know his ability, his ability, his ambition, and his determination. Only in this way can it be possible for Duke Wei to fulfill his promise after the Ninth Prince achieves his hegemony.
This point is more important than anything else.
It's not impossible to ask him to commit himself, but there must be enough benefits to make him willing to pay the price, right?
Wen Jingsong understood what he meant and felt for the first time that he might have made the wrong decision.
The nephew has severed all ties with him now. Even if he makes a comeback in the future, he will never take the same boat with him. But now, if he doesn't agree, is there any other way out? No.
So, he said quite seriously, "I can only recommend you, but I can't give you an accurate answer as to whether the Duke is willing."
Just tell him that I have a way to make the eldest princess work for the Ninth Prince, and naturally I will be able to see him.
The determined expression made Wen Jingsong a little suspicious. How powerful the eldest princess was. She grew up in the royal family and mixed with merchants. She was prosperous in both places. A mere child dared to praise Haikou. , will the Duke believe it?
He does not know.
However, on the evening of the second day, the Duke of Wei did secretly meet with Wen Xinglu in his mansion. As for what the two said, outsiders dont know. I only know that from then on, Duke Wei looked at Wen Jingsong in a more complicated way. .
Before Wen Xinglu entered the princess's house, he came to see Wen Yuwei for the last time. Like an elder, he warned her again and again, telling her to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, not to act willfully, and to stay away from the Wen family and his son. It can be considered a complete break-up.
On the surface, everyone's surname is Wen, but in fact, the brother and sister would rather die than have such a wolf-hearted uncle.
The Prince Consort spoke nicely, but he did not hold a wedding banquet with gongs and drums.
Wen Xinglu entered the princess's house alone with a fast horse, a baggage, and two boxes.
At first, the boy at the door didn't realize that this was the future prince-consort. If he hadn't announced his family name, he might not even be able to enter the princess's mansion.
The contemptuous looks in the eyes of the servants and the jealous looks of the male favorites in the backyard were all remembered by Wen Xinglu in his heart. He must take revenge for such a shame and humiliation.
The eldest princess Changlin, who had acquired the consort, was somewhat impressed when she heard the news that Wen Xinglu had entered the house.
Come alone?
"Yes, I saw this, I didn't even bring any luggage."
"Oh? That's strange. I thought the Wen family would have to make trouble for a long time before they were willing to send someone here, but I didn't expect it to be so soon." Hua Qing and Hua Yu waited on Princess Changlin to remove the hairpin from her head, and then She took off her gorgeous clothes and changed into an everyday soft tulle skirt. The makeup on her face was also removed. Although she was not as sunny as a woman in her 28s, she still had a bit more mature charm.
Invite this prince-in-law in.
"yes."
After receiving the order, Hua Qing opened the curtain and went out to see Wen Xinglu standing in the courtyard. He was dressed in a sky blue brocade robe and a mouse fur coat. His face was quite plain, although it was a little less soft than that night on Lantern Festival. However, it looks as beautiful as ever.
Consort, the princess invites you.
"yes."
After entering the house, Wen Xing behaved himself. He knelt down and bowed first, and then said, "We say goodbye on the Lantern Festival, how are you doing, princess?"
Oh? Your Majesty, are you willing to marry me?
"Naturally, ordinary people are lucky enough to be loved by the princess for three lifetimes, so how can they not know what is good and what is bad? Don't worry, princess, since I am here, I must be willing to do so."
I looked at his face carefully and found that he was quite sincere. However, I couldnt even shirk my conversation with him even if I wanted to say a few more words that day. Why did I have such an attitude after a day or two?
Being stared at by Princess Changlin, Wen Xinglu was very open.
Such an expression made Chang Lin a little more curious. Before she could speak, Wen Xinglu explained, "The princess is wondering why my attitude has changed like this?"
You are smart, so tell me, what did Mr. Wen threaten you with?
Future.
"Oh? I have heard of your talent and learning, but if you enter the princess's mansion and become the Prince Consort, you will not be able to become an official in the court. Wouldn't your future be lost?"
"Princess is only half right. I used to think that ambition can only be realized in the court, but now I also want to understand the truth. There is no place for others in the court, but that doesn't mean There is no other place. I think that since the princess can stand out among the many royal family members and be so appreciated by His Majesty, it must be the result of finding a new way. In this case, after entering the princess mansion, the people who follow her will naturally follow the example. "
Princess Changlin has lived for more than thirty years. It is really rare for people to express their thoughts so frankly. She looks down on anyone who is not allowed to be secretive.
He was more interested in Wen Xinglu than he doubted. He hooked his onion-like fingers at him and said with a wave of eyes, "Come closer and let me take a good look at this consort."
A few people stepped forward and hugged the princess directly. The smell of men penetrated her nose, which made Princess Changlin a little distracted.
Although those in the backyard were proactive, they were actually afraid of her power and always fawned over her. Over time, they got tired of it. I didn't expect that this new prince-in-law would be able to flirt with her.
Consort, have you thought about it?
Wen Xinglu didn't answer her, he just brushed his fingers through her silky hair and stared at the princess's face. His meaning was obvious.
Its not that he has never had physical contact, but the person in front of him made him want to conquer.
Hua Qing Hua Yu was used to serving the eldest princess, so he naturally understood what was going to happen and left the inner room quietly, and soon there was a ripple.
