In addition to Xie Shian going to the Imperial Academy, the Xie family also had another major event, which was Xie Ping's marriage.
More than two months ago, the emperor issued a decree to grant marriage to Prince Anjing and Xie Ping. The wedding was in September, and the wedding day was about to arrive.
During this period of time, so many bad things have happened to the Xie family, and they are proud of their wedding. Therefore, both Xie Zhongcheng and Yuan paid special attention to it.
While Yun Chu was busy, the boy beside Xie Zhongcheng sent the guest invitation list he had drawn up personally to Shengju.
Yun Chu took it and took a look, his eyebrows suddenly furrowed.
Xie Zhongcheng wrote not only her father's name on the list, but also the names of more than a dozen second-, third-, and fourth-grade generals under her father's command.
She wrote and crossed out these names.
The boy paused, not daring to speak, and went back with the list. After a while, Xie Zhongcheng and Yuanshi came together.
"Chu'er." Yuanshi got straight to the point, "Why did you cross out all the names of these guests?"
Yun Chu raised his eyes: "These people have no contact with the Xie family. How could my mother and father-in-law think of inviting these people to the wedding banquet?"
Xie Zhongcheng looked matter-of-fact: "These generals are all friends of your father, General Yun. Your father came to Xie's house to attend the wedding. If these people come together, they can also drink with your father, so that your father won't have to stay at Xie's house." It’s boring.”
Yun Chu pulled his lips.
As a father-in-law, she really knows how to find ways to find a place for the Xie family to save face.
She said quietly: "My father will leave Beijing tomorrow and won't come for the wedding banquet. Father-in-law, please don't worry about it."
"Leaving tomorrow?" Xie Zhongcheng looked astonished. "It will be sister Ping's wedding in a few days. Why can't he, the grandfather, wait a few more days and drink his granddaughter's wedding wine before leaving?"
Hearing this, Yuanshi gave her husband a hard tug.
Sister Ping is not Chu'er's biological daughter at all, and has no blood relationship with the Yun family. Why should General Yun stay in the capital for a few more days because of a granddaughter who has no blood relationship?
I didn't know that Sister Ping was the daughter of Aunt He, so it didn't matter that Yun Chu showed his sincerity.
But now...
The three children born to Mr. He——
The whole capital knew what Brother Wei had done.
An Ge'er... actually put a pot of flowers in his biological father's room.
Sister Ping... doesn't know what she will do in the future.
The He family's children were each more frightening than the last. If it were her, Yun Chu, she wouldn't dare to raise these children anymore.
"Chu'er, what your father-in-law means is that your father has finally returned to the capital. He hopes that our Xie Yun family will move around more." Yuanshi smiled to smooth things over, "Your father must have official business when he leaves the capital. I don't know when. As we set off, I’ll ask Jingyu to go with you to see you off.”
Yun Chu said: "My husband is not feeling well, so it's better not to go. It's okay for me to give him away alone. My father won't mind."
Yuanshi could only sigh: "Okay then."
After leaving Yunchu's courtyard, Xie Zhongcheng threw up his sleeves and left. Yuan continued to sigh and went to Xie Ping's courtyard.
Xie Ping has finished embroidering her wedding dress and is currently embroidering a red hijab. She grew up with the He family and learned some of He's skills. The red hijab embroidery is particularly beautiful.
Seeing Yuan entering the door, she stood up and said, "Why is grandma here?"
"I prepared some personal money for you." Yuan took out a few banknotes from his sleeves, "I went to Prince Anjing's Mansion. There are many places where money is needed. There are two thousand taels of silver here, which is not much. But it can also solve your urgent needs, so keep it carefully."
Xie Ping pursed her lips. She only had two thousand taels of silver, which was really a little.
However, for her, it was still a huge sum of money, because she only had more than three hundred taels of silver on hand.
She will probably become the poorest princess in this dynasty.
"Prince Anjing's Mansion has no more rules than our Xie family. After you marry, you have to be careful at all times." Yuanshi taught, "You are the princess and the mistress of the palace. You must be a good wife and solve the prince's problems. Don't do that..."
"I know!" Xie Ping said with an impatient look on her face, "All the nuns in the palace have taught me this."
Yuanshi spoke earnestly: "You also know what Brother Wei has done. Brother An is in your father's room...I won't talk about these. As a grandmother, I don't ask you to support the Xie family, I only ask you to be safe." Point by point, everything is fine.”
Xie Ping pursed her lips: "I remember."
She was going to marry into Prince Anjing's palace in a few days. She had been looking forward to this day at first, but when that day was about to come, she felt indescribably confused and panicked.
If she was the only princess, everything would be easy, but there was also a concubine who walked in with her.
Thinking of this, Xie Ping couldn't help but sigh.
The next day, before nightfall, Yun Chu got up and took a carriage to the outside of the city. Her father secretly headed to South Vietnam with three hundred soldiers.
Three hundred soldiers had already set off first, and Yun Silin said goodbye to his family in a pavilion outside the city.
The Yun family are all here, including Yunchu's mother Lin, his eldest brother Yunze, his sister-in-law Liu Qianqian, and his nephew Yun Zhenjiang.
"I'm going to South Vietnam this time, and I won't be able to come back for about two years." Yun Silin looked at everyone in the Yun family and said, "After I leave, if there are any major issues in the Yun family, you should discuss it with Chu'er."
Yunze nodded: "Dad, don't worry, I know everything."
Lin and Liu Qianqian didn't ask why the Yun family had to discuss matters with a married woman, and they both nodded seriously.
"Chu'er..." Yun Silin looked at his daughter, "Marrying you to Xie Jingyu was the best choice out of necessity, but time has proven that this choice was wrong. Your mother and I have discussed it and decided to choose one. When the opportunity comes, ask the clan elders to come forward and reconcile for you. Your eldest brother and sister-in-law also agree with this. After reconciliation, you will live back in the Yun family, and our Yun family will support you for the rest of your life."
Yun Chu's heart was warm: "Dad, I have already decided on the matter of reconciliation. Don't worry about this little thing like me when you are away from home."
"Children's affairs are always the biggest thing." Yun Silin raised his hand and rubbed her hair, "You have really grown up. You don't want to talk to your parents about anything, and you are used to solving everything alone. , Dad is very pleased that you have grown up, and feels sorry for you that you have grown up...Chu'er, relax, Dad promises you that what you dreamed about will not happen."
Yun Chu's eyes were sour and he nodded vigorously: "Okay, I will learn to discuss the solution with my eldest brother."
She was afraid that she would burst into tears if she continued talking, so she turned around and took out a bank deposit certificate from the maid Tingxue behind her: "Dad, there are fifty thousand taels of silver deposited here, which are the proceeds from selling ice in the summer. Dad, take With this money, go to the south, buy land and people to farm it, and just grow food, the more the better.”
Yun Silin thought for a moment and knew what Yun Chu meant.
If we really get to that point and have food, the Yun family will have a way out.
Just as he was about to speak, Yunze suddenly said: "King Pingxi is here."
Yun Silin immediately stuffed the deposit receipt of 50,000 taels of silver into his pocket, raised his head and looked to the side, and saw Pingxi Wang Chuyi riding a horse.
