許姨娘是半刻鐘後才到的,她本和二姑娘的生母明姨娘在一塊打葉子牌,聽到陶氏找,匆匆過來了。7Please respect copyright.PENANAYXAqZ1jTGW
7Please respect copyright.PENANAyZIGKsyfhf
陶氏風輕雲淡地和她交代了要寶寧替嫁的這回事:“……到時我便說,四姑娘病了,短時間內沒法出嫁,怕耽誤了四皇子的年紀,便由五姑娘替嫁。過幾日,我便将寶寧過繼到我的名下,那她便也是嫡女了,再加上我哥哥的進言,聖上不會不允的。倒是便宜了你們娘倆,又掰正了身份,又做了皇子妃,得意得很。”7Please respect copyright.PENANA5qMsMO0X4a
7Please respect copyright.PENANAOKskmnO7Ux
許姨娘聽得一口氣沒上來,險些暈過去:“你說的好聽,你怎麽不将女兒嫁給殘廢!你是要毀了寶寧的一輩子啊!”7Please respect copyright.PENANA1VaRIMBd1a
7Please respect copyright.PENANAqlX7XcyjnV
“姨娘,別說了。”許氏太激動,寶寧怕她口不擇言說出禍事來,趕緊道了辭,拉着她回了院子。7Please respect copyright.PENANAUCRQNchYFu
7Please respect copyright.PENANAkB7bqYEkFy
一進了屋子,許氏便再忍不住眼淚,撲到床上哭了起來:“我的兒啊,是姨娘沒用,才讓你受了這樣的委屈,我的寶寧怎麽能嫁到那樣的地方去……”7Please respect copyright.PENANA2YDlLLJpH9
7Please respect copyright.PENANAf63Ucfq86u
許氏是個很溫柔的女人,一向端莊舒雅,寶寧還是第一次見她這樣失态。7Please respect copyright.PENANAFkaBuxVbxS
7Please respect copyright.PENANAojcDd42Q60
看着這樣的姨娘,寶寧心裏也酸酸的,她上前坐到許氏身旁,寬慰道:“姨娘,您也別太難過,我覺着,這也不是壞事。”7Please respect copyright.PENANA8W7dWVaZOX
7Please respect copyright.PENANApkpUTJEbWO
“這還不是壞事嗎?”許氏震驚地坐起來,“我的兒,你是不是還不知道那個裴原是怎樣的德行?”7Please respect copyright.PENANAtScN2X0LuA
7Please respect copyright.PENANAkbyDxvG1ba
寶寧回想了下以往從府中下人閑聊處聽來的只言片語:“陰險狡詐,纨绔風流,心狠手毒,臭名昭著。”7Please respect copyright.PENANAuiLKL7LP5O
7Please respect copyright.PENANAoljzXorFbD
許氏點點頭:“不止這些,他現在還獲了罪,謀逆的大罪啊,聖上怎麽會寬容他?沒在玉碟上除了名,那是看在他死去的母親的份兒上,但是那樣活着,和死又差了什麽,癱在床上,人不人鬼不鬼的,又生了一副壞心腸……”7Please respect copyright.PENANAv1UkoiWXCA
7Please respect copyright.PENANAAHspslQ9fI
許氏想到這裏,又哭了起來:“我苦命的寶寧!”7Please respect copyright.PENANAQiyz3WeNR9
7Please respect copyright.PENANAN2QloR4OWU
寶寧嘆息一聲,抱住許氏的肩頭,低聲道:“姨娘,但我還是覺着,這樣挺好的。”7Please respect copyright.PENANA8xddhMOX5o
7Please respect copyright.PENANA8IyYf3X5EI
許氏哽咽着問:“好在哪裏?”7Please respect copyright.PENANAblSUWmOR4T
7Please respect copyright.PENANA5DXgjctpqz
寶寧道:“至少四皇子再不能娶妻納妾了,他的府裏,只會有我一個,沒有亂七八糟的其他人,多清淨。他再怎麽也是聖上的親兒子,原來的罪名已經發落了,也受了處罰,總不會真的再殺了他的。而且,四皇子都這樣了,對皇位也沒什麽威脅,估計也沒有別人會想着害他。如此一來,便更清淨了,多好。”7Please respect copyright.PENANAV5xO1ODCIJ
7Please respect copyright.PENANAK3EKFitFXk
許氏哭笑不得:“清淨是清淨了,但你一輩子的幸福就沒了!”7Please respect copyright.PENANAQtG4nh70Ya
7Please respect copyright.PENANAaQlZ50pk7x
“什麽是幸福呢?”寶寧垂着眼看自己的手指,“像大姐姐那樣的,嫁給崇遠侯世子,每天有操不完的心,鬥不完的法算幸福。還是像二姐姐那樣的,不停生孩子,一個又一個,就為了夫君多看自己一眼算幸福。我都不要,我就想安安靜靜過日子,我不想害旁人,旁人也不要來害我。嫁給四皇子就很好。”7Please respect copyright.PENANArZZkIwQZ2i
7Please respect copyright.PENANA04aUqtj5qC
許氏一時語塞,竟不知如何反駁。7Please respect copyright.PENANAusI5Pb6zCa
7Please respect copyright.PENANA5wRPKtvWoT
寶寧又道:“再說了,主母那樣的性子,咱們不答應又如何,她不會罷手的,父親也幫不了咱們。”7Please respect copyright.PENANARThBErZ9WW
7Please respect copyright.PENANAPOrydzSwyL
許氏知她說的有理,嘆息一聲。7Please respect copyright.PENANAzjQG85tXgK
7Please respect copyright.PENANAOfQTZd0hGk
沉默許久,許氏想到什麽,忽的蹙起眉:“季蘊還不知道這事,等他回來,還不得鬧翻了天。”7Please respect copyright.PENANAE1dRywTnUL
7Please respect copyright.PENANAUHpcYk0MTT
……7Please respect copyright.PENANAlulP8gFbOE
7Please respect copyright.PENANA7cpTchEsGi
季蘊是傍晚時分回來的,如許氏所料,果真大發雷霆了一場,直直地要往陶氏的院子奔,去找她理論,被寶寧死拽着才沒跑脫。7Please respect copyright.PENANAFt91RChltQ
7Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4cdB6dHN2
季蘊心中憋屈,又沒處說,抱着臂蹲在地上,慢慢紅了眼眶:“都是我沒用,陶氏的哥哥是二品大将軍,她才有底氣這樣橫行霸道的,若我以後也做了大将軍,我姐姐就不會這樣受人欺負了。”7Please respect copyright.PENANASX7I8sLIYm
7Please respect copyright.PENANAMnQaMgLgi5
寶寧有些好笑:“你才十二歲,她哥哥都快四十歲了,有什麽好比的。”7Please respect copyright.PENANA326vFStWOh
7Please respect copyright.PENANAuxNFESk7MT
季蘊十二歲,又是國公府的獨子,陶氏雖不喜他,平時也不敢苛責,一直都是嬌養着長大的,寶寧還沒見他哭過,驀的看見這樣的季蘊,心裏很不好受。7Please respect copyright.PENANAoOkPRdIYxS
7Please respect copyright.PENANA80ma7YniC6
寶寧哄他:“好啦,等你以後發達了,姐姐就和四皇子和離,你把姐姐接走,好不好?”7Please respect copyright.PENANAEHTZbGDyn8
7Please respect copyright.PENANAdCZcA2cIah
季蘊擡頭,淚眼朦胧問:“當真?”7Please respect copyright.PENANAnW792HyPVz
7Please respect copyright.PENANAo4ASOZLTVo
寶寧點頭。7Please respect copyright.PENANA5DGO6UQ7qX
7Please respect copyright.PENANA2jw5OHDWAc
季蘊果真被安慰到,握住寶寧的手,堅定道:“姐你放心,我以後一定更用功地讀書、練武,早一日出頭,帶你離開那個地方!”7Please respect copyright.PENANAewwaU771wN
7Please respect copyright.PENANAMXoXfE8Zet
寶寧笑起來,摸了把他的頭發。7Please respect copyright.PENANAWhsAnNyDOQ

又過了三日,少府監送來聘禮。7Please respect copyright.PENANA3lwO6MBnou
7Please respect copyright.PENANAxTZQbDJmn6
裴原犯的錯是謀逆,夥同太子裴澈欲要弑君即位,幸被三皇子裴霄及時發現,才沒釀成大錯。7Please respect copyright.PENANAWaYk8aaJS9
7Please respect copyright.PENANAeulUpFvNMU
聖上勃然大怒,當即将兩人打下牢獄,廢了太子位和爵位,下了秋後處斬的旨。但後來裴澈忽然在獄中病重,出獄療養後沒幾日便失蹤了,裴原也傷了身子,成了不良于行的廢人。兩個兒子都出現這樣的事,聖上年紀大了,又氣又急,大病了一場。好了後許是想開了許多,沒再追究裴原的罪過,将他放了出去。7Please respect copyright.PENANAnqY6fxKY9E
7Please respect copyright.PENANA4ylJdYB3uY
說的好聽點,裴原是個失寵的四皇子,說的不好聽點,他就是被聖上放棄的兒子,等着他自生自滅。7Please respect copyright.PENANACi6dH0AuMz
7Please respect copyright.PENANAkkg0UzdIJl
寶寧早就做好了聘禮微薄的準備,但等真的看見後,還是吃了一驚。7Please respect copyright.PENANAKAOUg1w5bG
7Please respect copyright.PENANAEpA5FBJNR9
一口生鏽掉漆的大箱子,草草裹了幾條紅綢,打開後裏面只有三袋小米,和用破布包裹着的五兩銀子。7Please respect copyright.PENANAjkipuPUfLS
7Please respect copyright.PENANARa1PmCSsZ0
季嘉盈當場就笑出了聲:“我道是四皇子落魄,沒想到已經落魄成了這樣,就算是只有幾畝地的農戶家娶媳婦,也不會這麽寒酸吧?”7Please respect copyright.PENANA0nhSZ4hFEJ
7Please respect copyright.PENANA2M2iK5cAQl
少府監來送禮的太監還沒走,聽女兒這樣講,榮國公臉上有些挂不住,喝了句:“嘉盈,住口。”7Please respect copyright.PENANAYcnzA8Ojmr
7Please respect copyright.PENANAqY6N4vqCXV
小太監倒不在意,笑着道:“四姑娘說的也沒錯,聖上說了,四皇子雖不從玉碟上除名,但其餘待遇與庶人無差。國公爺別嫌咱們送的聘禮寒酸,實在是聽差辦事,奴才也沒有辦法。”7Please respect copyright.PENANADattycQCAH
7Please respect copyright.PENANAMz1BASTZyu
榮國公小心瞥向寶寧的臉色,見她還是一副笑盈盈的樣子,心裏放松了許多。7Please respect copyright.PENANAo4NiZVlncB
7Please respect copyright.PENANApsdcX6Prvf
對這個女兒,他是有些愧疚的,但是有心無力,陶氏強勢,他也确實需要倚靠陶茂兵,不敢違背這個妻子的意思。7Please respect copyright.PENANAts14i6LSLY
7Please respect copyright.PENANAyl8szPPodG
不過既然寶寧不在意,他心裏也好受了許多。7Please respect copyright.PENANANSW5IVQdK3
7Please respect copyright.PENANAuVLoccot5J
陶氏給拿了些賞銀,又客氣兩句,将少府監的太監送走了。7Please respect copyright.PENANAdaT6YopiBw
7Please respect copyright.PENANAWyWendlPw7
寶寧道過謝,帶着那個大箱子回了許氏的院子。7Please respect copyright.PENANAHZ80fHSE4z

身後季嘉盈的聲音傳來:“嘁,還笑得出來呢,不知道是真傻還是假傻。”7Please respect copyright.PENANAHwfeG8BQDO

……7Please respect copyright.PENANAs2Fg17wMHn
7Please respect copyright.PENANALhXs4M0Hd8
回到房裏,許氏自然又是不平了一段時間,但怕傷了女兒的心,她也不敢表露出來,偷偷躲在外頭嘆氣。7Please respect copyright.PENANAdjgHNBnLz1
7Please respect copyright.PENANAqo1nPG7Say
嘆過氣後,繼續回屋子裏幫着寶寧一起繡嫁妝。7Please respect copyright.PENANAgt332FXSFP
7Please respect copyright.PENANAB0qWUQzVvK
出嫁的日子定的太匆忙,就在十天後,說那天是個吉日,過了時間還得再等半年,四皇子怕是等不了。7Please respect copyright.PENANAOui0TPN9iM
7Please respect copyright.PENANAx3RqMeoesR
等不了是什麽意思,大家都心知肚明。7Please respect copyright.PENANAOQNCBvrDpy

寶寧以前雖然沒定親,但嫁妝也一直在做着,她和許氏都長了一雙巧手,十日裏緊趕慢趕的,終于是做完了。7Please respect copyright.PENANA3wuzeveae2
7Please respect copyright.PENANAauB96CFxm6
迎親的日子一晃就到了。7Please respect copyright.PENANA5fOZXAIoa2
7Please respect copyright.PENANAKbZxf1l8d3
少府監遣來了一輛四面漏風的馬車,果真是将聖上的旨意貫徹到底,要将裴原視為庶人。7Please respect copyright.PENANARUt66JWCib
7Please respect copyright.PENANAHfI7fcnFxg
季蘊去看了眼,回來氣的心口發疼,坐在臺階上生悶氣。7Please respect copyright.PENANAo17KF2Jwld
7Please respect copyright.PENANA2vjwIaB9nI
寶寧笑着勸了他幾句,沒往心裏去,對着鏡子貼花钿。7Please respect copyright.PENANAR34Sy58QSI
7Please respect copyright.PENANA8efcaBScqx
她很認真地打扮了一番,按着成親時新嫁娘該走的那套流程,開了臉,绾了發,戴上鳳冠。寶寧想的很開,日子是要自己過,旁人愛說什麽也礙不着她的事,再落魄,也得幹淨漂亮,活的舒适。7Please respect copyright.PENANAxL2Ez0YqIY
7Please respect copyright.PENANATihHJ6w9eZ
何況,她也沒落魄成那個樣子不是?7Please respect copyright.PENANAlkz7yqEbsk
7Please respect copyright.PENANAa3YvOF2Wq6
寶寧本就是個美人,即使素面朝天,容貌也是府裏六個姑娘中最出彩的,現在穿上大紅色的喜服,又抹了口脂,更是讓人移不開眼。7Please respect copyright.PENANA185afLh5G1
7Please respect copyright.PENANAQ4H3euUzeb
她回身,笑着問許氏:“娘,我好看嗎?”7Please respect copyright.PENANAI8xXoRiyWK
7Please respect copyright.PENANARQsR72mj4p
許氏抹抹眼淚:“我們寶寧最好看了,四皇子一定會很喜歡你的。”7Please respect copyright.PENANAC38dj4drW3
7Please respect copyright.PENANAR2JB79r07h
寶寧笑得更高興,眼睛像彎小月亮。7Please respect copyright.PENANAgo1lfndhd7
7Please respect copyright.PENANAdj7AWuwYvN
又等了會,到了吉時,季蘊将寶寧背出府門,送到馬車上。7Please respect copyright.PENANAsPDNl5ga6Y
7Please respect copyright.PENANAlh3OLLLQpo
少年的背還有些單薄,但已經很穩了,他一步步走着,聲音有些顫:“姐,我以後會常去看你的,你要對自己好一點啊。”7Please respect copyright.PENANADpOPCvZNTi
7Please respect copyright.PENANATgdIB8e3ak
寶寧貼着他的耳朵道:“放心吧,你姐姐什麽時候對自己差過。”7Please respect copyright.PENANAvGYd42aVc7

7Please respect copyright.PENANAluaWtgeemv
陶氏一臉的事不關己,季嘉盈抱着胸在看好戲,葉姨娘帶着她的六姑娘畏畏縮縮躲在最後面,露出雙黑溜溜的眼睛看着她,眼神中一半嘲諷一半害怕,怕自己以後也會落到這樣的地步。7Please respect copyright.PENANAqO5s7BqUq3
7Please respect copyright.PENANAGZy8UcPl8b
唯有明姨娘和許姨娘擔憂地看着她,眼中有淚。明姨娘是二姑娘的生母,精明利落的性子,和許氏是好友。7Please respect copyright.PENANAMhhotoNUFz

寶寧坐在馬車上,撩了簾子向她們揮了揮手,還沒來得及說句話,車夫“駕”了一聲,緩緩開走了。7Please respect copyright.PENANAKZeF6gXDir
7Please respect copyright.PENANAnFaqWEzVRH
……7Please respect copyright.PENANAyYvcAQo5tF
7Please respect copyright.PENANAZm4Z9YAyuc
一路上,寶寧都在回憶裴原的樣子。7Please respect copyright.PENANAX0rHKKODec
7Please respect copyright.PENANAk0VYGbvhKi
寶寧對他是有些印象的。三年前的上元節,她随着姨娘和陶氏出府玩,站在酒樓臨街的窗邊往下瞧的時候,看見一個鮮衣怒馬的少年打馬揮鞭地過來,身後跟了一衆黑衣侍從,驚得路人紛紛躲避。7Please respect copyright.PENANAkg2cjqJf3V
7Please respect copyright.PENANAAczjQID0E7
少年容貌極盛,一身嚣張氣勢,鞭柄是銀的,在黑夜中抽出一道光。7Please respect copyright.PENANAlFPn5zkuvp
7Please respect copyright.PENANAFR1gke4sbe
店小二說,那就是四皇子裴原,不學無術,一身纨绔習氣,還殺過人,但他是皇子,誰都不敢惹,只能躲着。7Please respect copyright.PENANADBDjCDNIWM
7Please respect copyright.PENANAAI4TI5urDT
那時候,誰都沒想過裴原會變成現在這樣,寶寧也沒想過,他們之間竟會有這種糾葛。7Please respect copyright.PENANAvOndXdWJBz
7Please respect copyright.PENANAVEAg5YEJo6
但不管他原來是什麽樣的,以後都是她的丈夫了,她總不能撇下裴原不管。7Please respect copyright.PENANAXKeUg5SIiV
7Please respect copyright.PENANA6wr6FBh21C
寶寧想,她盡心待裴原,問心無愧,與他好好過日子,至于以後的事,便随遇而安,走一步算一步吧。7Please respect copyright.PENANAdif8ph5U4q
7Please respect copyright.PENANAocfvv25d4b
馬車不知走了多久,晃晃悠悠的,像是走到了什麽荒郊野外。7Please respect copyright.PENANAyopAM6BiL4
