Chapter 115: Marriage Proposal

Ye Tao still remembers a friend's extremely classic but unimitable marriage proposal. The friend threw the customized ring to his girlfriend and said boldly: "If you like it, wear it. Then, you know where to drive tomorrow morning?"

When the details of the proposal were questioned by a group of bad friends at the wedding, the audience was in an uproar. Everyone felt that there was probably no more brides with such a good temper in this world, and there was probably no more grooms who were so confident that they were exaggerated. However, this is probably not a good standard.

When he heard Tan Weixin make things clear at that moment, what circulated Ye Tao's mind was the light and shadow of this world and that world. Millions of words of sweet words ran in his mind like a waterfall in the way of the famous opening of the movie "The Matrix". Neon lights and floats, the smugs at the banquet, the flashlights instantly bloomed and the subsequent weak but obvious battery charging sound. The champagne squirted from the car accidental hit the hotel waiter who ran the food, the carefully stacked fragrance

The penicle tower collapsed and broke all over the floor. The beautiful bride in a wedding dress was poured into a wet photo by champagne. The male and female brides were caught in the aisle... He has really attended too many weddings. As a guest who wanted to prepare red envelopes, as a photographer who could get red envelopes but had no food to eat, as a group of newlyweds who wanted to rush up and chop up his wedding host, as a courtesy who had to be bold and stolen, he would finally get into that unique position.

Ye Tao didn't know what he thought of in his chaotic imagination, and his hands were trembling with excitement. His hand reached into his arms and took out a bag of something... Well, that was a wallet. He threw the wallet on the ground in anger and put his hand into his arms. Damn, this time it was a pencil bag and notepad with it... Then, the jade pendant? No!... This traditional costume really can hide a lot of things in his arms and sleeves. Almost at the end, Ye Tao took out a small leather bag made of dark brown granite skin from his arms. Ye Tao carefully took out two rings from his skin. Two platinum rings in this era are both extremely precious treasures and exquisite masterpieces of craftsmanship. The diamonds inlaid on them are crystal clear and pure and flawless.

The two rings were tied together with a bunch of bright red ribbons. The complex and gorgeous knot on the ribbon was vaguely the kind that girls of a certain era liked to show off their skills. Ye Tao was in a hurry, but he untied the pair of rings little by little and took one in his hand. He held the other ring and stood up, excitedly hitting the chair he was sitting on to the ground. He knelt down on one knee and held the ring in front of the princess. At this moment, his

But his mind became extremely clear. He said in a gloomy and magnetic voice: "My princess, please allow me to ask you to make your choice before any other choice appears in your earthly father's mind. In this world, any two people promise to join hands with each other for a lifetime is an adventure. However, believe me, as the inventor and producer of the most sophisticated map tools of this era, I set a long goal for our adventure. And that goal is: eternity."

Liu Yong, who was standing aside, was already standing aside at the moment, and his expression was a little hilarious in his seriousness. He was moved and moved. This was obviously not the way he understood that any marriage was successful, but did he and his wife, as former children of the world, determine their life together in a hasty and romantic way?

Tan Weixin gently took the ring in Ye Tao's hand. The sun set up countless dazzling spots inside and outside the diamond. The extremely hard platinum was engraved into a small daisy with thin petals surrounding the diamond of the right size. Such things, whether in terms of the difficulty of the craftsmanship or in the sense, Ye Tao had no possibility of making a fake hand on others. From Ye Tao's careful design and meticulous craftsmanship of the ring, we can understand how Ye Tao will cherish his lover and how he will protect her fragile life.

A trace of water flashed in Tan Weixin's eyes and asked, "You've been carrying this thing?"

"Yeah." Ye Tao replied in a nasal voice. He didn't know how to explain the motivation for carrying this thing all the time, or he himself didn't know it.

"Then, my answer is--" Tan Weixin put the ring on her fingers, raised her hand gently, looked at her hand carefully at this moment, and then placed her hand in Ye Tao's palm.

Although Liu Yong and Tan Weixin's guards were not big-mouthed people, in the small square in front of Yi Zhan Building, the news that Ye Tao proposed to the princess and obtained Yunke spread to the streets and alleys of Danyang, the capital of Dongping before noon.

Although many aristocratic families have long regarded these two as an inevitable couple, they are still surprised by this way that does not conform to the rules of this era. What about the matchmaker? What about the parents' orders? These two people. Although everyone knows that they are mavericks, they did not expect that they will be mavericks to this point. However, they have many friends. Many aristocratic families and their respective families are happy to see this matter, and they do not mention this procedure that does not conform to the conventional rules, as if they have not seen it.

But Tan Xiaopei couldn't pretend not to see it. Ye Tao and Tan Weixin's actions can basically be considered private lifelong decisions. In the eyes of those psychotic censors, it was another major event that would have lost the dignity of the country. But he also vaguely knew that his daughter had found his happiness and he should be happy. Later, the inner court guards heard news that Tan Weixin and Ye Tao had returned to their own residences after they had met for a while. This calm and plain attitude, as if their morning actions were just forbidden, made Tan Xiaopei feel a little amused.

"Transfer food...Transfer wine!" After walking back and forth in the study for a long time, Tan Xiaopei suddenly realized that he felt so hungry. While he wanted to have a good meal, he was so clear that he wanted to drink some wine.

Of course, Tan Xiaopei would not have lunch in the imperial study. Although he worked in his residence, he was not a unkempt soho after all. In the side hall, the eunuch delivered a table of side dishes and placed a small pot of mellow wine on the table. Tan Xiaopei sat at the edge of the table so depressedly, and even more depressedly picked up the small wine pot and drank it all in one go.

"Come on, bring another pot!" Tan Xiaopei ordered.

After a while, Queen Zhuo Xiu walked in calmly with two pots of wine. "Your Majesty, why are you so excited today?"

"Good mood?" Tan Xiaopei said with a wry smile: "Come on, Xiu'er, come and have some drinks with me."

"Okay." Although Zhuo Xiu is the queen, she is also Zhuomang's sister, and she had a bit of generous demeanor back then. However, this demeanor was tempered by time to become graceful and generous today. She sat beside Tan Xiaopei openly, filling the wine for Lord Dongping and their children's father.

"You don't know yet..." Tan Xiaopei was about to say, but was interrupted by Zhuo Xiu.

"How could it be that I don't know?" Zhuo Xiu said with a smile: "There are probably not many people in Danyang who don't know? This kind of news spreads the fastest."

"Oh, that's it. Look at this..." Tan Xiaopei drank it all over again. The small wine pot was the right container for his alcohol content. The little wine pot was really not very satisfying to him.

"What are you dissatisfied with? Do you disagree with their marriage? Or did Xin'er decide on her own affairs because she shouldn't have made a decision on her own?... Or do you think that this father is not as good as an outsider in Xiner's eyes? I know. You are definitely not making a tantrum for some people outside that they are damaging the royal face." Zhuo Xiuying smiled and said to her husband who had known each other for many years.

Tan Xiaopei was stunned by the question, and he said loudly: "It's really not, the royal face... Who doesn't know that the Tan family started as a bandit and became a warlord, and was in charge of Dongping a country. Although it has been so many generations, others will not mention the original matter, but I, Tan Xiaopei, have not taken the royal face so seriously. But... Alas, although I didn't allow Ye Tao and Xiner's marriage, at least I didn't say anything ignorant, right? She can't come and ask me even if it's so symbolic?"

"Haha. Look... I'm really jealous, right?" Zhuo Xiu smiled happily. "The court rejected Xin'er's comments. She was resentful. Maybe Xin'er was just trying to get angry on purpose. Besides, Xin'er made up her mind and asked you, what is the difference between you or not? Would you really say no? Then what should I do if I have the virtual head inside?"

Tan Xiaopei sighed, "Oh, among the children, Xin'er is the most determined, and the smartest and most talented. If she wasn't a woman and was so weak, she would have been a hero of a generation. From the great cause of unifying the Central Plains, she is more important than Ming'er and Ran'er. Ming'er, Ran'er understands this, so she almost obeys her sister. Do you think I don't want to pass her comment? There are too many things involved and too many people oppose it. I have some concerns... But, as a daughter, don't bother me like this, as a father, right?"

"Xin'er has always been like this. You don't know. If she really comes to ask you about this, if you don't agree and hesitate a little, she will dare to toss the inner palace and let you not even have enough money to drink, right?" Zhuo Xiu joked.

"Yes," Tan Xiaopei was also amused, "Xin'er can really do such a thing."

Immediately, Tan Xiaopei was a little worried, "Since both of them have made up their minds, forget it, I won't obstruct you. But if Xin'er let go of the affairs in the inner palace, who will take over?" Tan Xiaopei looked at Zhuo Xiu seriously.

"I won't be tired of that." Zhuo Xiu smiled gently and said rudely: "Xin'er will definitely make arrangements. She will have her own regulations at that time and will not worry you. However, there are many people watching this matter, so don't ignore it too much."

Tan Xiaopei naturally understood what Zhuo Xiu was talking about, so he nodded and sighed again: "Fortunately, Ye Tao is an official now, and he can finally let him do his best in the future."

Zhuo Xiu smiled and reminded: "It's one thing to allow this matter. It's natural for father-in-law to test his son-in-law. Don't miss this opportunity too easily. You know, he dare not refuse to agree to what you ask Ye Tao to do now."

Tan Xiaopei's eyes lit up, and then he was a little nervous: "Didn't that boy Ye Tao have too much power all of a sudden?"

"Too big?" Zhuo Xiu laughed: "Ye Tao is afraid that he has great power, but you are afraid that he will give him great power. Who is afraid of being so afraid?"

Tan Xiaopei thought about it carefully, laughed loudly, he gently hugged Zhuo Xiu and said, "It's good that you are here. Come on, let's have a drink."

The next morning, when the court meeting was held in the morning, Tan Xiaopei announced his decision before everyone expressed any opinions on this "marriage proposal":

"The Ministry of Works and the Ministry of War, Ye Tao, is eighteen years old. He is from a family of craftsmen, has great talent in military artisans, and is well-versed in military arts and other technicians, and is very talented. He is a model for a generation of young people. He has carefully examined his talents and qualities, and is both the best. I have expressed his true meaning and admired him with Princess Zhaohua. From now on, Ye Tao will be the son-in-law of the Princess Zhaohua, the Minister of War, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and the General of the General of the Guard of the Jin Dynasty. Princess Zhaohua, Tan Weixin, was awarded the Ziluan ceremonial guard. The marriage between the two will be supervised by the Ministry of Rites, the inner government and other yamen. I will be supervised by the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, and the General of the Jin Dynasty."

"The matters mentioned in the "Advisory Notes on the Qingluo Canal" submitted by Shi Xiu, the Minister of the Ministry of Works, was indeed necessary after the court's discussion. The matters listed for digging canals and dredging tributaries should be carried out as soon as possible. The Minister of Works, Minister of War, General of Guard, and Prince-in-law Ye Tao were appointed as the governor of the canal, and the matters to be repaired and drilled canals. The Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War cooperated with all their efforts. The rivers, civil affairs, military affairs and other matters in the areas involved shall be supervised by Ye Tao. I am hereby supervised."

Once the two imperial edicts were issued, everyone was stunned. What is this? While agreeing to the marriage between Tan Weixin and Ye Tao, he immediately released Ye Tao out as a cow and horse. Building a canal is not something that can be settled in a short time. Although it has great power, it also has great responsibility. The migration of residents involved in the construction of the canal involves civil and brave organization and management, engineering design, and construction period management. No work is easy to do. Ye Tao must have to work hard on the Qingluo Plain, which is not far from Danyang but not very close. On others, building a canal is a fat man, and a little bit of bad intentions is definitely a fortune. But Ye Tao is not short of money and is not such a person. If you marry someone else's daughter, you have to work for the rest of your family first. This father-in-law is really snobbish.
