Chapter 334 The Royal Wedding

When Qizhou was in turmoil, Chang'an City was peaceful.

After the harvest in autumn, it is the time for a cool autumn weather. With the good news of His Highness King Jin’s wedding, Chang’an City is filled with a festive atmosphere.

At this moment, Du Xijun and Kan Ling returned to Chang'an, and the funeral of Du Fuwei and his wife was completed early under the auspices of the general Li Chunfeng.

After that, Du Xijun returned to the Wangchuan Villa. After a few months of separation, the two children of the Xie family were over half a year old and their flesh was very cute.

When Du Xijun saw his son who had been away for a long time, he burst into tears and held his son in his arms for a long time and couldn't speak. Fortunately, Xiao Xieyu was very well-behaved and refused to accept his child. He was very obedient in his mother's arms. Should there be a giggle that made Du Xijun feel very comforted?

However, Zheng Liwan and Wu Meiniang were inevitably a little disappointed. They looked forward to it for a long time, but Xie Yi did not return. When Du Xijun heard about Xie Yi's trip to Qizhou, they were still worried about each other. It was also because Xie Yi went out to do an errand and was not a bloody storm, and the ladies were used to it.

After hearing Du Xijun talk about the situation in Qizhou, he thought about the fact that the emperor secretly sent Xie Yi to, and the difficulty and danger can be imagined.

"Sanlang brings Yebei with him, and there are many people around him, so there should be no problem with safety." Du Xijun said leisurely: "He reminded us not to worry too much, let us wait for him at home. In addition, the King of Jin will have to represent the Marquis' Mansion to congratulate him at that time, and I will follow you."

"Alas, His Highness the King of Jin sent someone to visit him a few days ago, and he was quite worried about Saburo. As a result, Saburo could not come back for the wedding, so he had to feel a little regretful."

"This is also a helpless move. Sanlang said that he would not come to attend the King of Jin's wedding. Someone would definitely notice the abnormality. He would have to ask about his whereabouts. Then we must keep our mouths tight."

"That's natural!" Zheng Liwan nodded slightly. Of course, he was missing the importance of it, but this kind of thing might be difficult to hide. As the chief of the King of Jin's mansion, he did not come back to attend the King of Jin's wedding, this itself is very likely to arouse suspicion. Perhaps Xie Yi did not appear at the funeral of Du Fuwei and his wife in the past two days, someone has noticed that something abnormal was discovered.

There is no airtight wall in the world. As long as you are interested, you will pay attention to the recent changes in the imperial court. It is easy to guess where Xie Yi might go. Furthermore, Xie Yi will also reveal clues in Qizhou. This kind of thing can only be hidden for as long as it takes.

It is beneficial to being in the dark, which makes it easier to investigate secretly, and can reduce much constraints, but it is not very safe. It is different in the open. The identity of the Marquis of Huaiyang and the identities of the Marquis of Huaiyang and the identities of the people who go to the imperial court will make people afraid. As long as you do not rebel, no one dares to treat Xie Yi openly. Even if a marquis who goes to the imperial court inexplicably had an accident in the territory of Qizhou, many people could not explain it.

Generally speaking, no one dares to do this, but Zheng Liwan would never have thought that King Qi Li You might rebel. But as a wife, she hopes that her husband can be safe and smooth, no matter what.

Wu Meiniang had different concerns and asked with a smile: "Sister Xijun, is that Miss Xu beautiful?"

Du Xijun smiled and said, "Hehe, I have seen a lovely man in Chenzhou. I am still in Qizhou now. Maybe... After Sanlang returns from Qizhou, he will have multiple sisters at home."

Zheng Liwan smiled and said, "It's good that this is the daughter of Xu, the daughter of the governor of Qizhou. She has a good appearance and outstanding talent and knowledge, and is worthy of Sanlang."

"This time I don't care about Saburo being flirted with the flowers outside?"

"It's different. I went to the grassland the first two times. I was a girl Hu. How could I be worthy of entering my Xie family? This lady Xu is different. She has no character or appearance."

Zheng Liwan said casually: "The marriage between Xie and Xu in Chen County is also good for Saburo's future. In the future, many sisters in the family will be better for the prosperity of their children."

"Yeah!" Wu Meiniang couldn't help but feel a little regretful. It was a pity that she could not get pregnant before Xie Yi left. After she came back this time, she would stick to her husband and get pregnant with the child no matter what.

Du Xijun smiled and said, "By the way, how about Princess Anning?"

"The person is still in the Taoist temple, but the Prince of Jiangxia has already written a letter to ask for the princess to be removed." Zheng Liwan said: "But even if he is the princess, it is not easy to marry into our family.

The Prince of Jiangxia held heavy troops and Sanlang was closely related to the prince, so this marriage was not that easy, and His Majesty the Emperor had no hope without nodding."

"Oh, what a pity, Princess Anning is such a good girl. If it weren't for the marriage and this identity..." Du Xijun couldn't help but sigh.

Zheng Liwan said: "But it's not that there's no chance. The last time Mei Niang and I went to the Taoist temple to pray for blessings, and talked with Princess Anning. The princess is determined and plans to stay in the Taoist temple and wait. Her mind is already very clear."

"Oh, Sanlang is so lucky, all good women..." Du Xijun said leisurely: "When he comes back, please let him go and see Princess Anning, which has relieved the pain of lovesickness."

"Yes!"

...

In the palace, Li Shimin was still busy reviewing memorials.

Although you have to marry a daughter-in-law and have weddings, the royal family is different from a poor family. Besides, His Majesty Li Er has many sons, which is a low point of becoming a father-in-law many times. Besides, the royal wedding is naturally arranged by the Ministry of Rites and the Provincial Department of Palace, so there is no need for the emperor to worry about anything.

For an emperor, family affairs are small and state affairs are the priority. Li Shimin still focuses more on handling state affairs.

The territory of the Tang Dynasty was getting bigger and bigger, and every day there were snow-filled memorials sent to the desk, so there were too many things to care about.

"Your Majesty, Wang Renyou and the eldest princess Tong'an have already arrived in Chang'an with Princess Jin." The eunuch stood aside and reported to the emperor softly.

"Very good!" Li Shimin smiled and said, "I should have visited my aunt, but it is not convenient to visit my house before the wedding. So, let Concubine Wei invite the eldest princess to the palace and I will meet you at that time."

"yes!"

"How was the preparations at the Chi Nu Mansion?" Although Li Shimin didn't care directly, it was his son's wedding after all, so he had to pay more attention to it.

"The wedding was organized by Furong Garden. The palace has been prepared and is only waiting for the wedding day." The eunuch said: "According to His Majesty's instructions, the palace has selected several other women to enter the palace of the King of Jin and will serve as his noble concubines in the future.

Among them, the palace maid Liu is virtuous and kind, and one is from the Xiao family of Lanling. He has good looks and character, but His Highness doesn't seem to like it very much tonight."

"The little kid's family now has the only daughter of the Wang family in his heart. It is right that the young couple has such a deep relationship. I and the queen were... "

Li Shimin coughed lightly and said slightly: "It's just that as a royal child, the marriage cannot be like an ordinary person. It is necessary to have a few more concubines."

Of course, the old eunuch understood why there were so many concubines in the palace. Is it really just because of the emperor's hobbies? Then look at the origins of the concubines and you will understand everything.

Royal marriages are all related to political affairs. The reason why King Li Zhi of Jin was able to marry the daughter of the Wang family was related to political affairs. Now, he chose a few maids during the wedding, especially those of the noble family of the Xiao family of Lanling. This is also related to this. However, generally speaking, ordinary princes have little influence in this regard. Even if they want to balance the house, they will be married for a few years.

His Highness King Jin was just about to get a wedding, and His Majesty the Emperor paid so much attention. What does this mean? His Majesty the Emperor did not seem to have such concerns about the prince and the King of Wei’s wedding back then!

Although His Highness King Jin has not been very favored recently, at least there is no special favor on the surface, these tiny details seem to reflect different things. Especially an old eunuch who follows the emperor a lot, he can see things that others cannot see.

At least one thing is that in the heart of His Majesty, His Highness King Jin's weight is different. This is different from before, not just because His Highness King Jin was the youngest son of Empress Changsun, but the emperor's special arrangements for the back house of the royal palace have released some special signals to some extent, at least the old eunuch has vaguely grasped it.

The old body moved slightly, and the fingers in the sleeves moved slightly a few times, then held them tightly.

"You send an order to Changle and let Changle enlighten the pheasant slave." Li Shimin first thought of his eldest daughter Princess Changle. If his elder sister is like a mother, Li Zhi will obey his words.

The old eunuch said: "Yes, Princess Changle is in the palace today. Princess Buchengyang is about to get married. The palace is preparing dowry for His Royal Highness."

Princess Chengyang betrothed to Du Ruhui's son Du He, and now she is just about the age to get married.

Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh: "Yes, the children have grown up and have married, but I... have grown old. I saw white hair on my temples as I got up this morning."

"Your Majesty is in full swing, don't want it..."

"Don't say it all nicely." Li Shimin interrupted the old eunuch and said, "When you are old, you are old... The only thing I regret is that the queen left me early and failed to see the children marry with her own eyes."

When talking about Empress Changsun, Li Shimin couldn't help feeling a little sad. After a moment of silence, he ordered: "Go and tell the palace province that the marriage between Zhinu and Chengyang must be done with all their heart and there must be no mistakes."

"Yes!" The old eunuch knew very well that King Jin and Princess Chengyang were both given by Empress Changsun, and His Majesty must have a little more favor.

...

In the palace, all the princesses gathered in Princess Chengyang's boudoir and were tidying up their dowry.

Princess Chengyang will marry Du He soon. In addition to preparing a dowry in the palace, the concubines and princesses in the chrysanthemum also need to help add dowry.

Especially Princess Chengyang is also the legitimate daughter of Empress Changsun, her status is naturally even more noble, and the number of dowry cannot be reduced. Originally, according to Li Shimin's temperament, her favorite daughter could give her more dowry, but Li Shimin was also afraid.

The reason is that when Princess Changle got married, Li Shimin loved her especially because she was the eldest daughter of Empress Changsun, so she gave her more dowry.

But Wei Zheng discovered this, and then wrote a memorial to swear that Li Shimin's sister, the eldest princess, had only a dowry when she got married. As a niece, how could Princess Changle's dowry be more grand than her aunt? This is not in line with the rules of the old and young generation in ancient times and is inappropriate.

Especially when Wei Zheng raised this matter to the point where the emperor favored his daughter and disrupted the country's discipline, what else could Li Shimin say? Wei Zheng was a completely old man in the court, which made people love and hate him, which forced Li Shimin to give in. Of course, there was also the reason why Empress Changsun mediated from it.

Although Li Shimin has been arbitrary in his work since Empress Changsun’s death, and Wei Zheng rarely speaks wildly in the court. With this precedent, Li Shimin is also afraid of trouble and is unwilling to give up on the demotion, so the princesses’ dowry are much more low-key.

The court and the palace saved less dowry, and the concubines and brothers and sisters of Juhua gave some things, which to some extent was considered to increase dowry and favor for the princess in disguise.

This is the case for Princess Chengyang now. Princess Changle, as the eldest sister, naturally had to come. The Changsun family was the Duke of Qi in the current dynasty and one of the largest families, so they naturally had strong financial resources. Princess Changle was also the eldest sister, so they naturally gave more gifts.

Of course, not only Princess Chengyang, but other brothers and sisters also received gifts to varying degrees. In addition to joining in the fun, Princess Chengyang gathered many people here, such as the young Princess Hengshan and Princess Jinyang, also came.

"Come on, the Palace Province has already prepared the anti-wedding clothes. Sister Chengyang will try it and see how beautiful our bride is."

"Sister, don't cancel your sister." Princess Chengyang has been joked in recent days, and it is inevitable that she feels a little embarrassed.

"Hey, are you shy? You always have to get married when you grow up!" Princess Changle smiled and said, "Look, you have only been a few years. You have grown up. Chi Nu is going to get married, Chengyang is going to get married. In another two years, Hengshan and Yizi should be old enough to get married."

When it comes to getting married, Princess Jinyang couldn't help but blush slightly. She was nearly ten years old and was no longer the ignorant little girl back then. Some things gradually became clear. At the age when this girl got married at the age of thirteen or fourteen, she could already be considered as the age when she fell in love, and she couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

"Yes, Hengshan and Yizi's son-in-law have not been selected yet, and I don't know which noble son of the family has the opportunity to marry our two younger sisters."

"That's it!"

"Sister Chengyang, you can marry first!" Princess Jinyang was a little embarrassed and had to fight back.

As a result, the princesses burst into laughter.

Seeing this, Princess Changle said leisurely: "Xizi has grown up, but it's right. Chengyang is the first to marry. Xuzi is younger and will only wait for two years before getting married. My father has always loved his younger sister, so he will definitely find a good husband for Xuzi."

"Sister..."

"Haha, okay!" Princess Changle smiled and said, "Chengyang, remember to wear your jade on the day of marriage, that is the only thing left to us by the queen mother.

Now that the Queen Mother is gone, that jade pendant is the biggest thought. If you carry it with your marriage, the Queen Mother will be happy to see us when she is in heaven.”

"Yes, I will bring it with me."

Jade pendant, what jade pendant? Princess Jinyang couldn't help but feel moved. Mobile phone users should visit http://m.piaotian.net
