Chapter 498 Busy "Being Engaged"

Although he was wronged, Marquis Anxi dared not say it. If he said that his daughter should marry to Xiliang, that would be even more wronged.Not only was he wronged, but he could not get any political benefits.Therefore, An Xihou could only bite the bullet and answer: "Our husband and wife also just want to find a good child for our daughter who knows what's cold and what's hot, so that she can live a good life. Family status is not the first consideration."

"So," Xiao Jingheng nodded, "That's my recklessness. How about this, in order to make amends to Anxi Hou and Miss Zhou, I will send Miss Zhou and Mr. Xu a big gift, which is congratulations on the engagement of the two families."

Oh shit!An Xihou stared at Xiao Jingheng, his eyes were about to burst into flames.This really blocked his way in the end!This may not be enough.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness." Chen Chengxiang and An Xihou suffered such a big dumb loss, and they had to thank Xiao Jingheng with a livid face, not to mention how aggrieved they were.

But Xiao Jingheng didn't seem to see the faces of these two, turned his head, and said to Xiliang's first prince with great interest: "Prince, I'm sorry, it's the first time for me to be a matchmaker, I have no experience, I didn't expect that Miss Zhou would Already engaged. But it doesn’t matter, there are so many girls here, I think that Miss Zhang is also pretty good, she was the one who painted before. Her family is..."

"His Royal Highness." Miss Zhang's father stood up in a panic: "Your Highness, forgive me, my daughter is already engaged."

"Oh?" Xiao Jingheng was taken aback again: "Also engaged? Which one?"

"I've booked... I've booked..." Ms. Zhang's father took a long time to say: "The nephew of Master Li, the waiter."

"Don't be wronged!" Xiao Jingheng looked surprised: "It's far from your family! It's said that women are high-married. In my opinion, Miss Zhang and the First Prince of Xiliang are suitable."

"Don't be wronged or wronged." Miss Zhang's parents waved their hands together: "As long as the two children get along well, everything else doesn't matter."

"En! That's right, they are really good parents." Xiao Jingheng nodded pretendingly: "Then, who else has already engaged? Come out and have a look at me, so that I won't mistakenly order a mandarin duck."

Well!All of a sudden, more than half of the dozen or so noble ladies stood up, and even Ms. Cao, who had been dealt with by Shangguan Jing, said they were engaged.Xiao Jingheng didn't take too much trouble, and inquired carefully one by one, whether he was engaged or which family he was engaged to.

After finding out everything, he also hypocritically announced that he would give a big gift to all the betrothed ladies present, to congratulate the ladies on their engagement and wish them a harmonious marriage.

There are still three or four people who have not stood up.It's not that these few don't want to be "engaged", but that they really can't find a "fiancé" at the moment, including Liu Shangshu's daughter.

This moment made Liu Shangshu anxious like an ant on a hot pot, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say that his daughter had someone in her heart, and she would not marry Feiqing.This doesn't even want the girl's reputation, and she doesn't want to marry to Xiliang, it's really admirable.

Xiao Jingheng and Shangguan Jing were amazed by Liu Shangshu's ability to bend and stretch.

"Who is it?" Xiao Jingheng asked curiously.

"Yes...it's Su Chaoyun, the eldest son of the Su family." Liu Shangshu was sweating, and looked at Su Ping and his wife who were sitting at the top with pleading eyes.

It's a pity that Master Su and his wife looked indifferent, and seemed unwilling to talk to him.

The empress dowager has been watching this big show in silence, and only now did she blink her eyes, and said unhurriedly: "I remember, the eldest son of the Su family seems to have not yet made an appointment. If it can be done, it will be a beautiful thing." .”

Shangguanjing and Xiao Jingheng knew why she spoke up.There are still a few girls who did not stand up, all related to the Yang family, the old lady wants to keep those few from getting married.

"Although Mr. Su didn't make an order," Shangguan Jing said with a smile at this time: "But we have already discussed marriage! Grandmother, please don't mess with the mandarin ducks. Mr. Su and his wife are here, just ask first. .”

"Yes." Mrs. Su immediately leaned over and replied, "I have long taken a fancy to Minister Lu's daughter."

"In this case, the Ai family will not care about it." The Empress Dowager nodded: "The women's affairs here are the most unclear, or it is difficult to be a matchmaker!"

"The emperor's grandmother said so." Xiao Jingheng stepped down from the donkey very cleverly: "Grandson wants to secure a big matchmaker today, but who would have thought it would be impossible. But there is no rush. Go and choose. This matchmaker, I'm in Baoding, if the Eldest Prince likes someone, you can come to me directly."

The eldest prince of Xiliang smiled and cupped his hands at Xiao Jingheng, not to get involved with the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty who circled around him.This time Xiliang sent the eldest prince to come here, and he already had some intentions of marriage. The Xiliang eldest prince can bring a noble daughter from a powerful family back to take advantage of it. Without him, I am not very disappointed. It is okay to have a clan daughter to go back with me. .

But the empress dowager understood the meaning behind Xiao Jingheng.He can give face to the empress dowager and temporarily leave the Yang family daughter alone, but the Yang family must also understand what they should do.

The old lady is a smart person. Although she did not expect Xiao Jingheng to be so strong, she is unwilling to offend the young prince and his wife in these matters. If she wants to kick off Empress Chen and take control of the Six Palaces, she still needs to rely on the help of the prince and his wife for the time being. .

Therefore, the Empress Dowager decisively decided that after the palace banquet, she signaled Mrs. Yang and his wife to quickly make engagements for these girls related to the Yang family, and to express a cooperative attitude to the crown prince.

This time, Empress Chen went to the East Palace to select candidates, and the Yang family did not get involved.

The general situation was set, Xiao Jingheng and Shangguanjing stopped messing around afterwards.The palace banquet was lively and lively, and the guests and hosts had a good time.

Of course, this "guest" does not include the courtiers and noble ladies who came to accompany the banquet. When they left the East Palace, most of their faces were black. Tears, sobbing into one piece.

But the envoys who came to pay tribute were not dissatisfied with the palace banquet. The prince of Dazhou is very shrewd and needs to be careful with every word. In the future, there will be such a monarch in Dazhou. They feel that as a vassal state, they should be more careful. wonderful.

It was getting late, and the empress dowager went back because she was in low spirits. The eldest princess Xiao Mingrui and her son-in-law accompanied the empress dowager to Shou'an Palace, intending to stay in the palace.

But He Lingyao's young couple and He Lingjun stayed in the East Palace, planning to leave tomorrow morning.

Several young people gathered together, thinking about the fruits of victory for this day.

"Who came up with this idea?" He Lingyao asked curiously, "It's really poisonous."

"Don't look at me, I don't know." Shangguan Jing hastily said: "I am a kind and good person. I won't do things like pimping!"

"Believe in you, there will be ghosts." He Lingyao couldn't help laughing out: "I don't believe that you didn't have your handwriting in this game."

　——Is this a shot at the head of the bird——
　　Who said that the early bird guessed it, how could His Royal Highness favor one person over another?No one present can be missed, and everyone will send a husband.

　　Thanks to Yun Qingqing, Pilimu, Tuantuan's little boots, the whole city's love oo, and the daily little dried fish accompanied by dancing shadows! !
