The sedan arrived at Kunning Palace half an hour later.
After the eunuch announced loudly, Sheng Ningning entered the inner palace with a bang.
In addition to Queen Jin, Princess Jiayun was also in the inner palace. The mother and daughter were talking intimately, making her, an outsider, very awkward.
But it doesn't matter, Jiashan's character is big-hearted and rude.
"My sons and ministers pay homage to my mother, and I wish my mother good fortune and peace."
"You're here just in time, come here." Empress Jin waved lovingly, and Jiayun beside her followed and saluted, "Sister Jiashan."
Sheng Ningning smiled brightly, "My sister is here too, but I only brought a gift from my mother today."
Queen Jin was a little surprised when she saw Sheng Ningning wave her hand, and the maid behind her brought up an exquisite mahogany box with a white jade carved Tongyin maid Tushanzi on it.
"this……"
Queen Jin's face was full of surprise, "Jiashan, how did you find this treasure?"
Sheng Ningning was a little proud, "I have my own way. This baby hasn't even warmed up yet, so I presented it to my mother."
"Good boy, you are thinking of your mother like this."
Sheng Ningning was so flattering that Jiayun was a little unhappy.
The two daughters were sitting on either side of Queen Jin. Queen Jin liked the treasure presented by Sheng Ningning very much, and her attitude towards Sheng Ningning also improved.
"Mother, when I entered the door just now, I heard my sister talking about Li Weizhou, but about the number one scholar?"
Queen Jin was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled and said: "Exactly."
Sheng Ningning looked at Jiayun and smiled, "My sister has fallen in love with someone? Could it be this number one scholar?"
Jiayun didn't expect Sheng Ningning to speak so directly. She said shyly, "Sister Jiashan, don't talk nonsense."
Sheng Ningning: "There's no one else here, sister, don't be shy. Besides, if you really like her, your mother will make the decision for you."
Jia Yun didn't answer anymore, but looked at Empress Jin shyly, and whispered: "If we are talking about marriage, it is Sister Jiashan who goes first."
Queen Jin turned the topic to Sheng Ningning.
"Come to think of it, Jiashan, you have reached the age of marriage. If you have a good son and husband that you like, talk to your mother about it. She will make the decision for you."
Since Queen Jin mentioned this topic first, Sheng Ningning did not intend to be polite.
She smiled slightly and said firmly: "I beg my mother to make the decision on my son's marriage. My son loves General Pei Jing."
Sheng Ningning proposed marriage in such a straightforward manner, which made Empress Jin and Jiayun confused.
The handkerchief in Jia Yun's hand was almost crushed. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Sister, isn't the person you like the number one scholar? How could it be General Pei?"
"When did I say that I loved the number one scholar?"
"But that day at Prince Gong's Mansion, my sister clearly..."
"Why is my sister so nervous?" Sheng Ningning asked, "Is it possible that my sister also likes General Pei?"
With tears in his eyes, Jia Yun looked at Empress Jin aggrievedly.
Sheng Ningning: "If my sister likes it, I'll let you do it."
As soon as these words came out, Empress Jin was unhappy. Empress Jin probably hated the word "give" the most. Everyone knew that if the former empress had not been around, it would not have been her turn to take the throne. Queen Jin suppressed her dissatisfaction and said warmly: "I will find an opportunity to talk to your father about this marriage."
Sheng Ningning saluted respectfully and said, "Thank you very much, Queen Mother. I won't bother my Queen to rest."
"Um."
When leaving Kunning Palace, the sound of glasses being thrown violently came from the palace.
Sheng Ningning has quietly sat on the sedan chair, feeling comfortable.
She was absolutely sure that as long as she took the initiative to ask Pei Jing to be her consort, Queen Jin would agree.
Pei Jing was born a commoner. It happened to be the time when the Jin Dynasty was recruiting troops. He entered the military camp and served as a soldier for a year, following the soldiers to kill the enemy on the battlefield.
He is highly skilled in martial arts, extremely courageous, and good at launching field battles and annihilation battles. He has distinguished himself at a young age.
It happened that Prime Minister Wei completely implemented the military merit system and promoted talents with civilian backgrounds. He recognized Pei Jing at a glance. After five years of fighting, Pei Jing gradually transformed from an unknown soldier in the slums to a world-famous young general today.
Not to mention Pei Jing's background, let's just say that his camp is affiliated with Prime Minister Wei and is in the opposite camp to the queen's cousin Fu Taiwei.
There are twists and turns in the middle of the court. Even if Queen Jin lets her own daughter become a nun, she will not let Jia Yun marry Pei Jing.
Sure enough, the marriage certificate came out three days later.
Sheng Ningning could completely imagine how wonderful everyone's expressions were.
Perhaps her cheap emperor father suddenly had a conscience, and remembered that he had wronged such a second daughter for so long, and no longer cared about her ridiculous things. The dowry was not only generous, but he was also ready to marry her off in a grand way.
Half a month later, the wedding team set off from the palace.
Ten miles of red makeup, the carriages are in good order.
There were ceremonial guards, curtains, foot barriers, a clearing in front of the waterway, hundreds of canopies and beds, dozens of palace concubines, and twelve people traveling on two poles. The pomp was huge, and they went to the general's palace in a grand way.
Sheng Ningning was wearing wedding clothes and sitting in the carriage. She and Pei Jing had not yet met, so she wondered how he felt about being the groom's official for the first time.
But she speculated that she was not very happy.
Pei Jing had no official spouse in his previous life, and died in battle because he was unwilling to become a pawn in the hands of Prime Minister Wei.
There is also a young sister Pei Li in his family. After her brother died, she became depressed and was forced to marry someone she didn't like, which ended badly.
Pei Jing and Princess Jiashan had no chance of intersecting in their previous lives. They both lived their own miserable lives in their own separate tracks.
Sheng Ningning would like to call them: two short-lived ghosts who constantly seek death.
Next, the wedding team stopped shortly after.
Xi Po led the bride down the threshold and entered the inner hall. Amidst the sounds of joy and laughter, according to the etiquette and customs of the Jin Dynasty, she worshiped heaven and earth, ate Henu wine, worshiped the male bed and the female bed, and sat on the tent to hold the red wedding dress.
Xipo said in a loud voice with great joy: "Please ask the groom to lift the bride's red hijab."
Under the light of the red candle, with her hijab lifted, the beauty was shy and timid, her face dizzy, and her almond-shaped eyes looked at Pei Jing timidly.
Pei Jing's face was as beautiful as a crown jade, and he looked calm.
Xipo was about to say something, but she saw Pei Jing's voice was faint, "Step back."
Xi Po smiled, thinking that Pei Jing couldn't wait to get married, and immediately said: "Old slave, I obey."
The door was closed, and there were only two people left in the wedding room.
Pei Jing paused and said in a deep voice: "I am complying with the imperial decree and marrying the princess, not voluntarily."
Sheng Ningning was stunned and looked at Pei Jing in surprise.
When he wasn't smiling, he had a sense of oppression, and his eyes looked at her with inquiry.
What he said didn't seem to be a joke, and he exuded alienation and indifference, as if the two of them were strangers.
The little beauty bit her lip lightly, her beautiful eyes filled with tears at a speed visible to the naked eye, her eyes turned red, and she started to shed tears.
Pei Jing paused and said, "I have no intention of humiliating the princess."
