When they heard that the imperial edict had come, all the women in the Jia family were extremely surprised.
Could it be that Baochai sealed the concubine?
But didn’t you say early on that you were defeated for some reason?
Xue's mother didn't know why, so she quickly asked someone to stop the drama.
You asked your sister, Mrs. Wang, to help settle everyone in the Jia family.
Needless to say.
Let’s just talk about the main hall of Lixiangyuan.
Xue Pan arranged for people to quickly set up the incense table.
When Xue's mother and Baochai arrived, they opened the middle gate and the whole family knelt down to welcome them.
Xia Bingzhong arrived on horseback, followed by more than a dozen internal prisoners.
All of them were so arrogant and majestic.
He did not dismount after entering the gate, and did not stop until he entered the main hall.
After getting off his horse, he walked to the hall with a smile on his face.
Standing facing south and facing north.
After the Xue family knelt down, he showed the imperial edict in his hand.
"The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven, and the edict says:"
The three members of the Xue family knelt neatly.
Everyone feels uneasy in their hearts.
But they have common expectations.
Because the imperial edict came at this time, it was likely to be the canonization of concubines.
Otherwise, the female family members of the back house will not be asked to take over other matters.
"There is a Jinke Tanhua, Feng Yuan, editor of the Hanlin Academy. His talent is outstanding, his virtue is very sweet, I pity his talent, feel his virtue, and wish to bestow heaven's grace on him."
Not as a concubine, but as a favor to Feng Yuan?
What does this have to do with the Xue family?
None of the three ladies responded.
"I also heard that the Xue family has a daughter, Baochai, who is well-behaved and well-behaved."
What!
The three ladies were all surprised and inexplicable.
But each is different.
Xue Pan was still a little confused when he heard this.
Xue's mother was shocked, hoping that it would not be what she thought.
The person involved, Baochai, was in a daze.
"These two men are talented and virtuous, and they are a match made in heaven. We have specially decreed to marry them!"
"..."
Now Xue Pan understood, but he was happy and surprised.
Fortunately, my sister was granted marriage by the emperor.
This is really a great honor for the Xue family!
At least it shows that the Xue family is still in the eyes of the emperor.
Surprisingly, the marriage partner.
It was actually Feng Yuan who frightened him and was both civil and military!
There was no luck on Mother Xue's side.
If he wasn't still following the order, I'm afraid he might be weak.
She was extremely impressed by Feng Yuan.
There are two impressions.
The first is what Xue Pan said.
This man beheaded hundreds of people just because of transportation trouble.
This is cold blooded.
The second is what Mrs. Wang said.
This person repeatedly offended Jia Mu and the Supreme Emperor.
This is madness.
Therefore, in Xue's mother's impression, Feng Yuan was a cold-blooded and rebellious person.
If Baochai is taken, will the Xue family still have a good life?
Baochai hasn't recovered yet.
Baochai didn't hear what was said behind the decree.
None of that matters anymore.
The important thing is...
She and Feng Yuan were granted marriage?
Although Baochai admitted that he had some affection for Feng Yuan.
But that's just some girly feelings.
Absolutely nothing like this!
But now think about this person.
Exterminate the Japanese pirates first, and explore the flowers later.
He can be regarded as an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs.
At a young age, he was already an editor of the noble Hanlin Academy.
To say the future is bright is an understatement.
Although my brother said that he had offended the Supreme Emperor.
But the marriage granted today shows that he is in the emperor's heart.
At least his career is safe.
Before Baochai could think clearly, she felt Xia Bingzhong pause.
Then he said: "I admire this~!"
When the three members of the Xue family heard this, they all thought it was over.
Just as he wanted to thank him, Xia Bingzhong continued:
"Congratulations to the Xue family, and congratulations to Miss Xue. Your Majesty has sent me a special gift to congratulate you."
Following his words, some eunuchs came over one by one with gifts in their hands to offer them to them.
"One pair each of gold and jade Ruyi."
"'Luanfengheming' Dahonggong forged, 'Good match is made in heaven' Dahonggong silk, four pieces each."
"Ten pairs each of gold and silver."
In response to the imperial gift, they all come in pairs.
The Xue family did not have time to think too much and instinctively shouted in unison:
"Everyone in the Xue family, please thank God!"
Xue Pan raised his hands above his head, received the imperial edict and stood up.
He placed it on the incense table respectfully, then turned around and clasped his fist towards Xia Bingzhong:
"I'm sorry to hear from you, Grandpa Xia. I need to invite you all to have some wine to relieve your fatigue."
Following his words, a hundred taels of money order was stuffed into Xia Bingzhong's sleeve.
Although Xue Pan doesn't know how to do business.
But after all, we are still a big family, so we still understand how to welcome and send off.
Xia Bingzhong glanced at it and was very satisfied.
Unexpectedly, Feng Yuan was so generous, and his future uncle was no less generous.
"Uncle Lao Xue has called the political lord of the second house of the Jia family. There are some matters in our family that I would like to explain to you."
Xue Pan heard this and sent someone to call him in a hurry.
Xia Bingzhong was not polite and sat directly on the main seat.
There is a maid here offering fragrant tea.
Not long after, Jia Zheng hurried over.
"Jia Zheng, the lower official, has met Eunuch Xia."
Xia Bingzhong glanced sideways at him and said:
"I think the Jia family should know that the misunderstanding between Feng Yuan and the Jia family has alarmed the Supreme Emperor."
Jia Zheng was confused and had no idea what he was talking about.
He didn't even know there was any misunderstanding between Feng Yuan and the Jia family.
Mrs. Wang said it casually that day without going into details.
Naturally, Jia Zheng didn't take it seriously.
As for Feng Yuan and the Supreme Emperor, he knew about it.
After all, he has always paid attention to Shilin's trends.
I even felt sorry for Feng Yuan privately.
Unexpectedly, this matter was related to his family.
Not many other bastards know about it.
The Emperor's charming eyes were all thrown to the blind man.
"Although the Holy One has not said it, our family reckons that he must not be able to bear the trouble of the Supreme Emperor, so he granted the marriage to Feng and Xue's family."
Xia Bingzhong didn't care that he was really confused, he was still acting.
He opened his mouth to clear Emperor Jingshun away, and then started beating.
"Since our family is here, we will take it upon ourselves to make peace with you two."
He said that it was not Emperor Jingshun who said it.
But everyone understood that this was what Emperor Jingshun meant.
"Our family is thinking that since this matter started from the Jia family, it needs to be concluded by the Jia family before it can be complete, right?"
Jia Zheng still didn't understand and said doubtfully: "Please give me some advice from Eunuch Xia. The Jia family knows everything."
"No, no, no, maybe it's just that our family is too worried."
Xia Bingzhong was speechless, but he couldn't explain it more clearly.
"It's up to the Jia family to figure this out for themselves, whether it makes sense as I said."
After a pause, he stared at Jia Zheng and said sharply:
"If so, then we should rebuild the old relationship as soon as possible to prevent the Emperor from worrying too much."
If you still don't understand, Xia Bingzhong has nothing to do.
"If not, then our family has made a mistake, and the Jia family shouldn't take it to heart."
"Just think that our family wants to chat with Master Jia."
Jia Zheng thought he was angry and quickly handed over his hand:
"Don't dare, don't dare, the Jia family will definitely ask about this later, and I will definitely satisfy my father-in-law!"
You don’t even know about your own family’s affairs?
Xia Shouzhong didn't want to say anything more to this idiot and stood up directly.
"gone!"
Whooping, a dozen inner prisoners all stood up.
"etc!"
Jia Zheng shouted.
He caught up with Xia Bingzhong in two steps and stuffed it into his sleeve.
A gold ingot fell into Xia Bingzhong's hand.
"Thank you very much, Eunuch Xia, for your guidance. Please be careful and treat Eunuch Xia to some wine."
It can be seen that Jia Zheng is a little unfamiliar with such activities.
Fortunately, he is not ignorant.
…
After all, we are at Jia's house.
Not long after the decree was announced, Mrs. Wang received accurate information.
"The two daughters of the Xue family are going to marry Qinggui!"
This news made her feel very upset.
It was originally said that the "Golden Marriage" plan was about to be launched.
Unexpectedly, the man named Feng intervened!
Moreover, it was a marriage granted by the emperor, and the Xue family had absolutely no way of refusing it!
I can't get enough!
Mrs. Wang couldn't calm down and started pacing in the room.
"What will Baoyu do?"
When he stopped after a long time, his expression was still uncertain.
"Could it be that... I can only marry that timid little Daiyu?"
"no!"
