Su Wan's marriage has been preliminarily decided. They just have to wait for the Li family to choose a good day for Mrs. Jing to come to collect the Geng Tie, and then ask someone to do the math. If there are no problems, the two families can sit down and discuss the engagement.
The three letters and six rites were cumbersome, but the two families also attached great importance to this marriage.
Su Fu and Su Ran from the Marquis of Jinning House were grounded, Su Ling was not in the house, and Su Ying, the second roommate, was only twelve years old, so there were no sisters who came to Su Wan to talk about things. If there were any sisters, it was Su Luo who found out about her I was very unhappy about getting engaged and getting married, so I went to Guanyuan to accompany her every day.
As expected, there was a turmoil outside the palace because of these two marriages, and there was a lot of rumors. The fourth girl from Jinning Marquis Mansion wanted to marry into Prince Zhao's Mansion, but was looked down upon by Prince Zhao's Mansion, while the sixth girl wanted to marry into a poor family. students, but they were taken seriously.
Speaking of the gifts given by the Li family to Su Wan for proposing marriage, many people took a few breaths of cold air. Let’s not talk about the other things, but the Tianshan snow tea and Mizhou Lingsha soft silk were already surprising. .
"Who do you think this Li family is? Where did they get these good things? That's Tianshan Snow Tea. Your Majesty can't get much of it in a year."
"No, I've heard that even the nobles in the palace don't have much of Mizhou's rhombus soft silk. If they get one piece a year, they still have to use it."
"Do you think this Li family is a wealthy family? If not, why would the Jinning Marquis Mansion agree to this marriage? The sixth girl is the legitimate daughter of the family."
"It's absolutely impossible. I did have a few friends with whom I got along a few days ago. It's Li Jingyuan's hometown in Yancheng. I heard that he also attended the academy and lived in a small village in the countryside. His family was poor. Very."
"Could it be that the Jing family helped."
"Jing Family? What Jing Family?!"
"It's the family of Mrs. Jing who acted as matchmaker for Li Jingyuan. You people from outside don't know. Although no one from the Jing family is an official in the court, they are also a big clan in our imperial city. They have been in the Dong Zhao Kingdom since its establishment. ”
"If the Jing family is to help, it is reasonable to take out these two things."
"But after all, the Jing family is the Jing family, and the Li family is the Li family. Even if it is help, it will not be much. If these six girls marry, I don't know what the future will be like!"
"You said it's really pitiful for a good and rich girl to marry a poor and humble young man."
"I don't think it's pitiful. Li Jingyuan is only eighteen years old this year, and he has already been elected as a candidate. If he fails this year, he will come back in three years. Besides, the sixth girl was born in the Jinning Marquis Mansion, and his maternal grandfather was a town official. In the Duke's Mansion, even though Li Jingyuan is a small official now, he will definitely be the same in the future."
Many people around believed this and felt that Li Lin was really lucky. They originally thought that he was just a toad who wanted to eat swan meat. He went to the Marquis of Jinning to propose marriage and it was considered good not to be beaten out. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a toad. It also allowed him to marry the best one.
"Young master, you want me to step forward and teach these people a lesson!"
When Yuanyou heard that people were talking nonsense here, he felt aggrieved for his young master. His young master was clearly the best young master in the world, so why was he being said nothing by these people.
"It's not necessary." These slanderous words were already expected by him, and he was not angry at all. Others thought that he was poor and poor. He was lucky enough to marry the sixth girl. In the future, he would rely on the Marquis of Jinning. The future is boundless for the government and the government office.
She was just a little worried that if someone said something unpleasant in her ears and laughed at her for marrying such a person, she would feel sad.
He was slightly worried in his heart, wondering if he would explain to her if he had the chance to meet her, so as to put her at ease.
"Speaking of which, the fourth girl is also pitiful. She has been disliked by her husband's family before she even got engaged. The marriage proposal gift from Prince Zhao's Palace is not as good as that from the Li family."
"The Li family invited Mrs. Jing to be a matchmaker, and Prince Zhao's palace brought an official matchmaker. The marriage proposal was just an ordinary six-legged gift, which added up to only one or two hundred taels of silver. A noble girl, she is still The legitimate daughter of the Crown Prince of Jinning is really a shame..."
"No, Prince Zhao's palace dares to do this. It can be seen that it doesn't even give the face of Marquis Jinning. Could it be that Prince Zhao and Marquis Jinning have a falling out?!"
These rumors spread a lot, and naturally reached the ears of King Zhao and the Crown Prince Zhao Mingzhan. Zhao Mingzhan frowned, and his eyes were a little irritable.
The Crown Prince's wife said: "How to solve this matter? When I went out these two days, others asked about my uncle's marriage..."
Zhao Mingzhan also felt worried. Zhao Mingyan was clamoring to marry Su Fu. If the mother-in-law didn't want to agree, she just didn't agree. Why did she have to do such a thing in the marriage? It humiliated Su Fu, and also humiliated the Jinning Marquis Mansion and his own family. It's also a shame.
"Don't bother with this matter. Just pretend you don't know and just have a good pregnancy."
Zhao Mingzhan got married last year. He married Murong Ning, the eldest daughter of Pingyuanhou Mansion. The old lady of Pingyuanhou Mansion was the aunt of the emperor and King Zhao. Speaking of which, Murong Ning was also his cousin a generation away. The relationship between the two was quite good. good.
Zhao Mingzhan is an upright man with strong abilities. Even his majesty has boasted about his youthful achievements and thinks highly of him. Now he is the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard and he is deeply trusted by his majesty.
Murong Ning said worriedly: "I don't know what will happen if my father knows about this."
Zhao Mingzhan secretly thought in his heart that his father would definitely be angry if he knew about this. He could deny other people's face, but not the Marquis of Jinning.
The two are both royalists. Prince Zhao is the emperor's younger brother, and Marquis Jinning is the emperor's confidant. Their relationship has always been good. What Princess Zhao did this time was like a slap in the face of Marquis Jinning, saying It's a marriage, but actually it's already a feud.
King Zhao was indeed very angry. He called Princess Zhao over to talk to her and asked her to prepare gifts again and ask Princess Huaihe to come forward to negotiate again. This time, she must do it properly and give Jinning Hou Mansion face.
Princess Zhao had already suffered a lot because of this matter. She was said to be intolerant of people without virtue. Seeing King Zhao talking about her like this, she became even more angry and hated Su Fu even more.
If it weren't for Su Fu, Zhao Mingyan wouldn't be so seduced by her that he would insist on marrying her. If it weren't for this, she wouldn't blame her and humiliate her when they talked about getting married. ...She will not have this day either!
She took a deep breath and asked someone to prepare things with a cold face. Then she sent someone to the Huaihe Palace and invited the Huaihe Princess to be the matchmaker.
Seven or eight days later, Princess Zhao and Princess Huaihe went to the Jinning Marquis Mansion to propose the marriage again.
At this time, Wang sent Su Ran to a temple far away from the imperial city in the name of praying for blessings. Accompanied by Su Ruo, Su Ling returned to the Jinning Marquis Mansion in high spirits.
She is also getting married.
