Scarlet Robe Murder

In the eleventh year of Jiajing's reign, an early winter snowfall blanketed the capital city. 。Yesterday, snow fell all night. This morning when I woke up, the world was white, and silver frost covered the ground. 。The maidservants of the Zhenyuan Hou Mansion got up early to sweep the snow. The brooms scraped across the ground, making a rhythmic "rustling" sound, which set off the courtyard even more peacefully. 。Two maids with braided hair, each holding a bowl of soup, walked briskly across the corridor. 。These two were different from the maids who swept floors. They were handmaidens by the master's side, not required to do chores in their daily lives. They wore brightly colored clothes, styled their hair high, and if they pleased the master, they could even wear jewelry. They lived a life more luxurious than that of ordinary young ladies. 。Therefore, these maidservants held their heads high wherever they went, with great arrogance. 。The maid in a red dress whispered to her companion in a low voice, “Did you hear The marriage between the Lord and the third young lady of Yongping Hou’s Mansion has been decided. After the old Lord's mourning period, they will get married next spring.” 。“Isn’t this what it should be” a maidservant with lake-green armor sneered. 。The Marquis was only twenty when he inherited his title. He excelled in both literature and martial arts, possessed a noble bearing, and even earned the admiration of the Martial Marquis. Of course, the Marchioness would want to marry someone from a distinguished family. 。The third daughter of the Yongping Marquis's Mansion is the niece of the Wuding Marquis. The marquis also follows the Wuding Marquis to do business. Now that the Fu family and Hong family are related, the marriage further strengthens their ties, bringing joy to all. 。The maidservant who had spoken earlier, upon hearing this, kept pointing towards the northwest courtyard and muttering, "If Lord Hou and Miss Yongping of the Third Rank were to become betrothed... what about that one" A maidservant with clothes the color of jade green glanced forward and replied, “They’ll return to their respective positions once their true nature is revealed." 。He is just the son of an ordinary soldier. His family has fallen into poverty. The old marquis took him in as a favor to his father, who saved the old marquis's life on the battlefield by taking an arrow for him. He has been able to live a life of wealth and prosperity in the marquis's household for ten years, so he should be content. 。“Old Marquis, you really are foolish. You want her to marry into the Marquis’s household Just say it and stop pretending you’re already the mistress of the house!”,The maidservant listened with a touch of melancholy: “She has lived in the Marquis’s manor for ten years now, from the age of seven to seventeen. She's always been by the Marquis's side...” 。How many decades are there in a human life You're already so grown up. How will we talk about marriage in the future 。The maid of the lake-green attire, whose name was Bi Jia, seemed displeased for some reason. She pouted and said, "Can the Lord still look at another man's wife Don't feel sorry for him; his life is better than ours. Who knows, we might even have to call him 'Master' one day." 。"Hush!" the red maidservant hurriedly reminded her companion, gesturing for silence. 。A maid in a blue satin jacket emerged from the main room, pulling back the curtain just as she came face-to-face with them. 。,Fu Tingzhou went to Yongping Hou's mansion privately and agreed after returning. 。The third young lady of Marquis Yongping has found a good husband, and Houfu Zhenyuan is now connected to an old prestigious family. Marquis Wuding has won over a young military talent, everyone is happy except Wang Yanqing. 。。
