Only two days after the Hundred Flowers Banquet, after confirming that Mrs. Ye was fine, a marriage decree was sent to Danyang Hou Mansion.
The marriage between Ye Jintang and King Qin was finally completed.
With the appearance of this imperial edict, the entire capital was in an uproar.
Some people say that Marquis Danyang is very scheming. With two princesses from one family, there is no second family in the entire capital.
It is also said that Marquis Danyang worked hard to get into the emperor's family. If he sees that prince becoming a prince in the future, he will marry a granddaughter.
Of course, some people say that Ye Jintang's life is miserable.
She was an orphan with no parents to care for her, and it was pitiful that she couldn't make the final decision on her own marriage. Now that Danyang Marquis Mansion wanted to marry her to Prince Qin's Mansion, everyone felt that her fate was really bad.
While sympathizing with Ye Jintang, everyone couldn't help but say that Danyang Houfu was cold-blooded and even wanted to take advantage of orphans.
Several families who originally wanted to get married with the Hou Mansion no longer mentioned the matter of getting married.
Any decent family should think carefully about such a ruthless and unjust family.
All kinds of rumors are flying all over the sky, almost all of them are making fun of Danyang Hou Mansion.
Marquis Danyang didn't go to the morning court in the first place, and now he went into hiding, not even the guests who came to congratulate him.
The happiest person in the entire Hou family is Mrs. Gan. King Qin's marriage has finally been settled. As long as they get married quickly, she can marry his daughter in a glorious way.
"Mom, I have already asked the eunuch in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he said that King Qin's marriage will be kept simple, and Liu Yatou will be allowed to come over on the eighth day of the lunar month next month."
"Okay, although Liu Yatou is marrying King Qin, it can't be too shabby. The amount of dowry you prepare for Yanran is the same as the amount of dowry you prepare for Liu Yatou. The difference cannot be too big."
Mrs. Ye's words made Mrs. Gan dumbfounded.
She smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, most of Yanran's dowry is mine. How do you ask me to prepare a share for Liu Yatou?"
"You are stupid, you don't know how to make some false pretense to save face."
"Our Danyang Marquis Mansion has already been disgraced because of Yanran's marriage. You can't let me have the reputation of treating my granddaughter harshly."
Mrs. Ye looked at Mrs. Gan with a sullen face, as if looking at an idiot.
They all just want to take advantage of the Hou Mansion, and they want her as an old woman to take the blame for anything that happens. They are really vicious.
"Mom, this is a dowry of one hundred and twenty pigeons. Where did you ask me to get so many empty pigeons?"
"Prince Qin's Mansion will definitely send a betrothal gift. When the time comes, the Hou Mansion will come up with something, no matter what, they can come up with it."
At this moment, Mrs. Ye was also a little depressed. Her two granddaughters were going to be princesses, but in terms of betrothal gifts, their prince's house couldn't give up any benefits. Thinking about it made her feel depressed.
If Ye Yanran hadn't caused such a shameless incident and asked Ye Jintang to fill the house on her own, she would still have received a large betrothal gift.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Ye didn't like Mrs. Gan very much, and just found an excuse to send her away.
The imperial edict granting marriage was such a big deal, so Xiao Mo, as the rightful owner, naturally received the edict as soon as possible.
He did not let Chen Qi take the order for him, but took it personally.
When someone else's family encounters such a huge happy event, the eunuch who announces the edict will definitely say a lot of auspicious words and get some benefits before leaving.
But when they arrived at the King of Qin's place, the eunuch who announced the edict ran away with his people after reading the imperial edict.
What a joke. Who dares to ask for favors from the King of Qin when he is tired of living? This man is a murderous demon who never blinks an eye. If he offends him, he may not even be able to save his life.
After getting the imperial edict, Xiao Mo opened it again and took a closer look. When he saw his name and Ye Jintang's name next to each other, he had a smile on his face.
When Imperial Concubine Dehui went to Emperor Jing to discuss his marriage, Emperor Jing did not agree at first.
He has always been reluctant to mention the marriage with Danyang Houfu, just because he was afraid of recalling every detail of him and the late empress.
Xiao Mo had expected this a long time ago and had prepared people to persuade Emperor Jing early, so that he could successfully obtain the imperial edict of marriage.
"Father, you must live well. Sooner or later, I will come back and tell you that I saw with my own eyes how you strangled my mother to death."
Xiao Mo held the imperial edict tightly in his hand, his heart feeling cold.
"My lord, do you think our palace should prepare a betrothal gift?"
Jiang Heng asked carefully from the side.
"Just let the Ministry of Internal Affairs prepare it. As for my share, I have other plans."
"yes."
Xiao Mo, who was in a good mood, specially asked Shi Bin to come over and have a drink with him.
"My lord, do you want to tell Miss Ye your true identity before you get married?"
"There's no rush. People in the capital are so blind that I won't tell her. It won't be too late to tell her when we set off for Ningchuan Continent."
When Shi Bin heard what Xiao Mo said, he gave him a thumbs up.
"My lord, you can really hold back. The person you like is right in front of you, and you can still calmly hide so many things from her."
"It's called a surprise."
"Huh? Isn't it scary?"
Xiao Mo raised his eyebrows slightly. He could surprise her by revealing his identity on the wedding night, and then give her one when he goes to Ningchuanzhou.
"Of course not. There are some things that you don't even know."
As he said this, Xiao Mo picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
"My lord, I really envy you. You can be with the person you like, unlike me who can only live in memory for the rest of my life."
Shi Bin also picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
"As long as Miss Lin and Mr. Zhou are not found, my people will not withdraw."
Xiao Mo patted Shi Bin's shoulder and couldn't help but sigh.
He firmly believes that he wants to see the person alive and the body after death, and he must find out the whereabouts of the two of them no matter what.
"Thank you, cousin."
Shi Bin picked up the wine bottle and filled it up for the two of them. As a grown man, the corners of his eyes turned red.
After a while, the two talked about what happened after the wedding.
Xiao Mo didn't use his own people in the marriage, but when it came to returning to the fiefdom, he couldn't be lazy and had to use his people.
I hope he can leave the capital smoothly. Only after going to Ningchuanzhou will he have the opportunity to sit on the dragon throne.
The betrothal gift from King Qin was quickly sent to Danyang Hou Mansion.
The vast procession of betrothal gifts naturally attracted many people to watch.
Those who have good deeds deliberately count them.
"That's not right. The betrothal gift for a prince in the Qin Kingdom's ritual system requires at least fifty-six bucks. How come the King of Qin only has thirty-six bucks?"
"If the King of Qin is still the war god of the Qin Kingdom with a large number of troops, he can still afford the betrothal gift even if it is ninety-six dollars, let alone fifty-six dollars."
"Oh, it's such a pity. I heard that King Qin's temperament changed drastically after he was seriously injured and became disabled. Several concubines in the Prince of Qin's palace have died."
"Yes, I've heard about it too. It seems that King Qin injured his vitals and became a eunuch, so he kept his concubines to death."
Everyone gathered around Danyang Houfu to watch the excitement and gossip.
When Mrs. Gan in the Hou Mansion saw these thirty-six betrothal gifts, her eyelids began to twitch.
After she got the gift list, she wanted to faint and die.
