After the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, Emperor Wen of Chu sent Cheng Su and others from the Ministry of Industry to Xizhou and Huaizhou to investigate the situation...
Strangely enough, there is no news about the engagement between the Shen and Cheng families that Emperor Chu Wen made. The two families agreed not to mention anything. It seems that Cheng Su made some kind of deal with Emperor Wen of Chu for his daughter. This is unknown. of
Cheng Mansion
Cheng Shuyi snuggled into Cheng Su's arms and said, "Dad! Thank you very much, daughter, but it's just military power...?"
Cheng Su helped her up: "Don't worry, this military power belongs to the royal family after all. Dad, you don't want to be imprisoned by marriage."
"Thank you dad!"
"Father knows that you are interested in the legitimate son of the Lin family, but the Lin family is in charge of the household department, and the emperor will definitely not allow our two families to marry. You understand the stakes in this."
Cheng Shuyi remained silent, and finally said calmly: "I understand everything."
There are no elders in the Nan'an Palace, so the marriage naturally falls on the queen. She sent someone to get Yun Zixiang's horoscope early in the morning.
In the past few days, Yun Zixiang has become very familiar with the etiquette of getting married. The queen even specially sent a nun from the palace to teach her.
"Miss, you are so kind, just stand there for half an hour!"
Grandma was sitting next to her, leisurely drinking the tea prepared by Yun Mansion.
Yun Zixiang had to stand with a cup on her head and smile all the time. Her face almost froze with laughter.
Suddenly someone said something in Mammy's ear. She looked at Yun Zixiang and walked out.
Zhihe saw this from the side, and after watching her grandma walk away, she quickly carefully took off the cup from Yun Zixiang's head and hammered her shoulders.
"The nuns in this palace are also true." Zhihe couldn't help but say
Yun Zixiang stopped him and said, "Don't say this again in the future, lest walls have ears and if someone listens to it, it will be a blasphemy against the royal family."
Zhihe quickly shut his mouth and continued to hammer her legs.
"Xiang'er!"
Mrs. Yun called
Yun Zixiang stood up to greet her: "Mother! Why are you here?"
"If I don't come, you'll still be standing here."
"It's mother, you..." Yun Zixiang hesitated, but immediately understood that she was right. She found a reason to send her away.
Mrs. Yun pulled her to sit down and sent everyone off: "Xiang'er! Your wedding to Qi'an is coming soon. Although my mother is a little reluctant to let go, a woman will marry after all."
Yun Zixiang said nothing
Mrs. Yun added: "I saw your behavior at the birthday banquet and knew that you have grown up. Qi'an is a good boy. I feel relieved to entrust you to him."
Yun Zixiang hugged her and patted her back gently: "Mom! I will see you often in the future. You don't have to worry about me."
Then he added: "I will live a good life with Qi'an."
royal palace
"There are a lot of rumors in the DPRK nowadays, you know that, right?"
Emperor Chu Wen looked at Chu Qian standing below. There was no emotion visible in his eyes, he only felt tangled.
"It's really nonsense. Your Majesty, you can rest assured. This official has no interest in the throne."
Chu Qian calls himself a lower official
"Ha, you are sincere. It would be great if you were my son. I wouldn't have to worry about it."
Chu Qian quickly raised his hands and said, "Your Majesty, be careful what you say! I am afraid!"
"It's just a pity that your father is so young. Oh, let's not talk about it. I have been ashamed of him all these years."
As if he had decided something, he said: "I will send you to Jinzhou as governor, and then come back when the situation in the DPRK and China is stable, okay?"
"I obey my orders!"
"Just wait until you get married and leave. Jinzhou is where your father and mother met, and it's also your mother's hometown. It's always good to go and see it."
The queen took two horoscopes. The two people's horoscopes were already good, and they were harmonious together. So she went to ask Chu Qi'an about the betrothal gift.
He sent someone back to say that he had arranged the betrothal gift, which made the queen less worried.
As the wedding day is approaching, both houses of Yunchu Mansion have been decorated with lanterns and red silk and satin decorations.
Chu Qian also came to the door with a betrothal gift. The leader was Prince Yin, who was very prestigious in the court. He had been in the frontier for many years, but because of his nephew's marriage, he hurried back.
The betrothal gift almost filled the Yun family's courtyard with two hundred kilograms of gold, ten thousand taels of silver, thirty-six loads of gold and silverware, one thousand bolts of silk and satin, ten boxes of jade, four handles of Ruyi jade, and a large box of house title deeds, presented by dragons and phoenixes. A set of auspicious enamel plates and celebrity calligraphy and paintings
Ordinary people have seen this formation, which is comparable to that of the royal family. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as ten miles of red makeup. Chu Qian has a good sense of proportion. It does not exceed the royal betrothal gift, but it is also extremely luxurious, which shows that he attaches great importance to Yun Zixiang.
Although Yun Nan's face was not very good, but when he thought that he would inherit the position of prince in the future, but was willing to make a promise to only one person, he could no longer lose his temper and greeted him with a smile.
Prince Yin stepped forward and handed over the gift list and exchanged greetings with Yun Nan.
Mrs. Yun and her servants were counting things together. After all, what kind of dowry could be worthy of such a betrothal gift? The Yun family might have been able to do it before, but now I'm afraid they can't even afford half of it.
According to etiquette, the two of them cannot meet each other to pay for their wedding. Zhihe told Yun Zixiang the grand scene in the front hall one by one.
Suddenly heard something
"Who?" Zhihe shouted
Seeing that the person coming was Chu Qian, he immediately fell silent and stepped aside.
"Climbed over the wall?" Yun Zixiang didn't have to think about it, I'm afraid he was the only one who could do this.
Chu Qi'an refused to question, poured himself a cup of tea, and said to the director: "After we get married, we will go to Jinzhou."
"Did the emperor send you there?"
Chu Qian nodded.
"Okay, let's go out and avoid the limelight."
Yun Zixiang had heard some rumors, and naturally knew that going out at this moment was the best way.
Seeing that she had no dissatisfaction, Chu Qian felt relieved and said, "I've already prepared the wedding dress. I don't think you know how to embroider it."
Yun Zixiang glanced at him suspiciously. His embroidery skills were indeed average, but how did he know?
"Don't worry about how I know, your husband knows nothing!"
Yun Zixiang: "..."
Then he smiled again, just in time, lest she do anything.
The wedding dress was delivered quickly. When Mrs. Yun saw it, she was shocked and said, "This is embroidered by Mrs. Yu, who is famous in Beijing. I heard that her embroidery skills are amazing, and the lines are all very good, but the Qi'an sect A gift from someone.”
Yun Zixiang looked extremely beautiful. No wonder Mrs. Yun was surprised.
"Um"
"I haven't been able to embroider it for two months. I'm really serious about it."
There is a note on it, which reads: "To my wife Zixiang - pray for peace
He gave the note to Yun Zixiang, put the wedding dress back into the box, and sent someone to put her in Yun Zixiang's courtyard.
Later, Yun Zixiang received a letter from the Shen family, written by Shen Yujin. The letter was full of regrets, but it ended with blessings for herself...
Yun Zixiang casually put her in the closet
I also wrote a reply, with the general meaning of wishing him to find his happiness.
Although the Shen family is a bit selfish and narrow-minded, Shen Yujin is different after all. He is a very good person and is kind to everyone.
