Zuo Anning raised his head blankly, almost losing the ability to think for a moment.
She had just confessed her true feelings to her grandfather, saying that she would never marry, so why did she get this decree of marriage?
Moreover, it is Mr. Tan...
Zuo Anning's mind flashed through several encounters with Tan Hanchi, and she was instantly confused.
Has Mr. Tan received the order? Is he willing in his heart?
"Miss Zuo?"
Huang Pei saw Zuo Anning stunned and couldn't help but give a gentle reminder.
Zuo Anning was shocked when she realized that she had neglected the imperial edict. She quickly reached out to take it and expressed her gratitude.
Eunuch Huang smiled warmly, with no displeasure in his heart.
After all, she is a young lady in the boudoir, and this imperial edict came without any warning. It is completely normal for Miss Zuo to be unable to react for a while.
Furthermore, the Duke of Yan's house is the in-laws of the Qiao house, so he naturally has to respect him more.
"My lord, please get up quickly."
Eunuch Huang handed over the imperial edict and hurriedly went to help Duke Yan.
Duke Yan stood up, pulled Eunuch Huang aside, and asked in a low voice:
"Eunuch Huang, please let me know. This marriage decree is..."
Eunuch Huang understood the idea and replied in a low voice: "My lord, this will was obtained with great difficulty by Tan Xiuzan!"
When Duke Yan heard this, his brows suddenly relaxed, and he quickly stuffed a purse into Eunuch Huang's hand.
"Thank you very much, father-in-law. Please reply to Your Majesty. I am grateful for Your Majesty's great kindness and I am very happy in my heart."
Eunuch Huang did not refuse, and nodded with a smile, "My lord, please feel free to bring me here!"
The people in the palace cheered and left. Duke Yan turned around and saw Zuo Anning unfolding the imperial edict, looking down at it carefully, with a look of disbelief on his face.
Duke Yan's lips raised slightly, and his heart was filled with true joy at this moment.
He just went to ask Eunuch Huang specifically because he wanted to confirm Tan Hanchi's thoughts.
If he asked for the marriage himself, then we can get a glimpse of his sincerity towards An Ning.
After all, the Yan Kingdom Duke's Palace and the Qiao Palace had a very close connection. As Tan Hanchi was a close official of the Emperor, this marriage was originally impossible.
Now that it's possible, it shows that the kid really put in all the effort.
so good.
He had just made preparations for An Ning to remain unmarried for the rest of his life.
Now if he could have a sincere person to protect him in peace for the rest of his life, he would be able to rest in peace even if he was buried immediately.
Now... I just don't know what An Ning is thinking.
"Ning'er."
Duke Yan walked forward and patted Zuo Aning's shoulder gently.
Zuo Anning raised his head in confusion, "Grandpa, what... what on earth is going on?"
Duke Yan asked, "Ning'er, you should have met Tan Hanchi. My grandfather heard that he also helped Tian Jing get married. What do Ning'er think of Tan Hanchi?"
Zuo Anning looked slightly dazed, and the first thing that came to his mind was the high-spirited scene of Tan Hanchi wearing a red robe and riding a horse through the streets last year.
Then when the Han family was giving away their wedding, Tan Hanchi grabbed her hand in the crowd and protected her.
Also, in the Qiao family's new house, she and Tan Hanchi were pushed and stood together...
When Duke Yan saw Zuo Anning's ears slowly turning red, his heart suddenly became certain.
From this point of view, An Ning also had a good impression of Tan Hanchi, but the unhappiness of her son and daughter-in-law made An Ning fearful of getting married, and she began to think about avoiding marriage.
Thinking of this, Duke Yan touched Zuo Anning's head and said warmly:
"Ning'er, my grandfather just asked Eunuch Huang. Tan Hanchi asked for this decree himself."
Hearing this, Zuo Anning suddenly raised his head.
Did Young Master Tan ask for it himself?
So, he...he actually...
Duke Yan Guo said with a smile, "We Ning'er are so outstanding, but that boy Tan is really discerning."
"Ning'er, how you live your life is never decided by the previous generation. Your father and mother each have their own shortcomings. It's because they themselves can't live a good life."
"But look at your aunt and your uncle, don't they live a happy life?"
"Don't be afraid, Ning'er. Grandpa will invite that boy Tan over for a chat in a few days. If he treats Ning'er badly, grandpa will be the first to refuse!"
Hearing this, Zuo Anning had countless thoughts passing through her heart. She couldn't help but clenched the imperial edict in her hand and secretly made up her mind.
"Grandpa, if it's possible, can Ning'er have a few words with Mr. Tan?"
Duke Yan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Of course you can."

When Qiao Jiaojiao learned about the news of the marriage, she was so happy that she almost jumped up!
【Ah ah ah! Another pair of CPs I was hoping for came true! Woohoo, how could I be so happy! 】
【Wedding! I can't wait to see Tan Hanchi and cousin An Ning get married! So sweet to me! 】
[Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuah, if this marriage can happen, Tan Hanchi must have been thinking very hard and racking his brains, right? Otherwise, how could Emperor Yong agree? 】
[Tan Hanchi is so powerful! I'll call him! He is a real responsible man! 】
Qiao Jiaojiao hugged the little pillow, her big eyes full of pink bubbles!
Mrs. Qiao sat aside and couldn't help but feel happy.
Hanya Xian and An Ning are good sisters. She was so excited that she couldn't help but ask, "Mom, should we go see An Ning this afternoon?"
Qiao Jiaojiao's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard this.
"Go! Go see cousin An Ning! I'm going!"
Mrs. Qiao smiled and hugged Qiao Jiaojiao, nodding repeatedly, "It's time to go. We'll go after lunch at home."
At the lunch table, Qiao Zhongguo and Qiao Tianjing deliberately chatted and brought another piece of news to Qiao Jiaojiao.
This morning, Baili Chengyou asked Emperor Yong for instructions. After half a month, he returned to Nanli Kingdom and took Meng Guxue away with him!
【So urgent? 】
Qiao Jiaojiao was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she understood Baili Chengyou's eagerness.
[He has had a dream, so he knows the methods of the second prince. He is worried that things will change if he is too late! 】
At this time, Qiao Tianjing looked confused and added, "In the Jinluan Palace, the second prince requested an order on the spot to marry Meng Guxue in person, and the emperor agreed."
"There is now a rumor in the capital that the second prince was unable to marry Meng Guxue, so he graciously granted her marriage. It can be said that his love is as deep as the sea."
Qiao Jiaojiao:! ! !
[What did I say last night! Sure enough! 】
[And he also set up a love affair with him. If something happens to Meng Guxue, no one will doubt him anymore! 】
【Ah ah ah! The second prince has such sinister intentions! 】
[Meng Guxue should also have received the news by this time, right? She can't sit still. If this happens, will she come to our Qiao family? 】
————
Meng Mansion.
When Meng Guxue learned the news, the bowl in her hand almost fell to the ground.
How could the second prince have such deep love for her?
At this moment, Meng Guxue was extremely convinced that the second prince would never let her go!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but tremble all over, and her hands and feet were cold.
No, she doesn't want to die!
Baili Chengyou alone may not be enough. In order to save her life, she needs more helpers!
