Qin Ming came to his senses at this time. This script was a little different from what he thought.
But no matter what script it is, it must be performed now. He looked at Queen Changsun and said:
"My nephew is not engaged yet."
When the eldest grandson heard this, his face showed joy and he said:
"In that case, can it be okay for aunt to decide a marriage for you?"
Qin Ming's head suddenly exploded when he heard this. My mind went blank, and I subconsciously wanted to take out my phone and ask on the forum.
"What should I do when the queen comes to propose marriage?"
The study suddenly became quiet, and apart from the sound of Si Zi eating, no other sound could be heard.
Qin Ming instinctively wanted to refuse, but for a moment he didn't know how to say it. He wanted to ask the woman who she was, but then she thought about it and wanted to know who it was. If she refused, it seemed a bit disgusting.
So he immediately gave up the idea, thought about it, and wanted to delay it for a while, so he said:
"Aunt, my nephew is only fifteen years old. Isn't it a little early to talk about marriage?"
When the eldest grandson heard this, his eyes widened and he said:
"You'll be sixteen after the new year. You're not too young to get married. If your parents were still alive, they might have arranged your marriage long ago. Since you regard your aunt as your elder, then your aunt should do this for you. get together."
Qin Ming smiled bitterly when he heard this, frowned and thought for a while:
"Aunt, my nephew wants to find a candidate for his wife by himself. After all, his wife wants to live with his nephew for the rest of his life. He wants to find someone he can chat with and who is happy with her."
The eldest grandson snorted when he heard this and said:
"How do you find it yourself? Whose famous girl is wandering on the street? Besides, how many couples in the world have met before getting married? Don't couples get married first and then slowly develop their relationship."
Qin Ming was a bit speechless when his eldest grandson criticized him. Indeed, although the Tang Dynasty was more open than other dynasties, it did not support free love like later generations.
When the eldest grandson saw that Qin Ming was silent, he said angrily:
"Are you afraid that the person Auntie chooses for you is not suitable? Could Auntie still be able to harm you?"
Seeing that Changsun was a little angry, Qin Ming thought for a while and said:
"Aunt, my nephew has absolutely no intention of doing this. This matter is a bit sudden for my nephew. Please give me some time to think about it."
The eldest grandson breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. To be honest, she didn't want to be like this. Who gave Qin Ming the talent? Such a person must be caught. We can't take advantage of others, let alone the royal family members.
In fact, the easiest way is to ask Li Shimin to issue a decree to marry him, but it is impossible in the current situation. Since Qin Ming is just a commoner, it is impossible for the Ministry of Rites to agree to the princess's marriage unless it is to recruit a consort.
Secondly, the time really cannot be delayed. If he hadn't come today, the King of Hejian County might have been discussing marriage with Qin Ming by now. And as more and more people know about Qin Ming in the future, maybe someone from the five surnames and Qiwang will use marriage to win over Qin Ming.
The eldest grandson leaned back on the sofa, then took a sip of tea and said:
"Auntie is not that ignorant person. Since my nephew needs time to think about it, auntie will give you time."
Just as Qin Ming was about to stand up and thank Queen Changsun, he heard Changsun continue:
"Give you an hour to think about it carefully. Auntie will hear your answer after dinner."
After finishing speaking, he said without waiting for Qin Ming to refuse:
"Hey, Auntie came here early in the morning without eating. She is a little hungry now."
Seeing that things had come to this, Qin Ming reluctantly put Sizi on the sofa aside, then saluted Queen Changsun and said:
"Nephew, go and arrange the meals now. Auntie will wait a moment."
Hearing this, Si Zi smiled and waved to Qin Ming and said:
"Brother Qin Ming, Si Zi wants to eat braised pork."
Qin Ming forced out a smile, pinched Si Zi's chubby little face and said:
"Okay, Sizi wait here obediently, and my brother will arrange for someone to make braised pork for you."
After saying that, he glanced at Xiao Changxi and Qingwan and led them out of the yard.
In the study, Prince Hejian looked at the door speechlessly, then at Queen Changsun who was eating cakes, and sighed silently in his heart.
"Hey, if I had known I should have come yesterday."
...
Qin Ming and others left the yard and walked a long way. Qingwan walked to Qin Ming, pulled Qin Ming's sleeve and said:
"Sir, are you ready to agree to Mrs. Li?"
Qin Ming hugged Qingwan, smiled and said:
"I haven't thought about it either. Wan'er, you go to the kitchen to prepare the meal first, while I'll take a look around the house."
Qingwan nodded when she heard the words:
"Sir, no matter what decision you make, Wan'er will support you."
After saying that, he walked towards the kitchen.
Qin Ming looked at Xiao Changxi beside him, sighed, and said softly:
"Xi'er, come with me for a walk."
Xiao Changxi agreed in a low voice and followed Qin Ming around the backyard. Finally, Qin Ming took her into the backyard warehouse where Xiao Changxi usually settled accounts.
Qin Ming looked at Xiao Changxi who was sitting on a chair with her hands folded and saying nothing. Although she was wearing a veil, Qin Ming could still see that Xiao Changxi's face was a little pale.
He walked to Xiao Changxi, took her hand and said seriously:
"Xi'er, are you willing to be my wife?"
Xiao Changxi trembled when she heard this. She didn't expect that Qin Ming would say such words when he brought her here.
But she instantly understood what Qin Ming meant. He wanted to refuse the marriage on the grounds of marrying her.
After knowing Qin Ming's plan, Xiao Changxi bit her lip, her tears falling uncontrollably, and her veil soon became wet.
Because she knew that with her status, it would be okay if she just stayed with Qin Ming, but once she married Qin Ming, the meaning would be different. With the current situation, it is very likely that he will be killed. So she stood up and hugged Qin Ming and said:
"If the young master has this intention, the slave family will be satisfied. But listen to me, young master, you have to agree to this marriage. This marriage is too important to you."
Qin Ming was stunned when he heard this. Of course he knew the importance of marriage. After all, it was a marriage decided by the queen herself, but why did Xiao Changxi say this? Could it be that. Thinking of this, he asked:
"Xi'er, do you know something?"
Xiao Changxi lay on Qin Ming's shoulder, nodded and said:
"When Prince Hejian entered the study room and saw Mrs. Li in the morning, I saw that he subconsciously wanted to salute Mrs. Li, but he held it back later. Combined with the last time they came to the house to drink, I probably Guessed her identity."
When Qin Ming heard this, he hugged the beautiful woman in his arms and said:
"Well, you guessed it right, she is the eldest grandson queen of the current dynasty."
Xiao Changxi was still a little shocked when she heard this. After all, guessing is one thing and being confirmed is another. She sighed silently in her heart and continued:
"Well, sir, the people you are dating now are all powerful people. It is no longer possible for you to marry an ordinary woman. In this case, just agree to it."
