The most excited person among them is not Pei Shaorong, not Mrs. Pei, nor Taifu Pei, nor Mrs. Pei, but Pei Shaorong's father!
He never expected that the emperor would grant his daughter a marriage, and the object would be the fifth prince who had the best chance of winning in the battle for the crown prince! In other words, his daughter is likely to become the crown princess and the future... mother of the country!
Then he is the father-in-law!
At this time, Mr. Pei couldn't remember that he had always disliked Pei Shaorong, his daughter. Compared to Pei Zhen, Pei Shaorong, his legitimate daughter, received too little love from him!
On the contrary, he often scolded Pei Shaorong for Pei Zhen, saying that she was narrow-minded, even vicious, and not like a legitimate daughter. He used his father's identity to force Pei Shaorong to give in countless times. Not to mention how he humiliated Pei Shaorong's own mother because of Aunt Zhao.
Compared to his excitement and ecstasy, Taifu Pei was much calmer, even a little worried.
He had never thought about letting his eldest granddaughter marry any prince, regardless of whether that prince had a chance of winning or becoming a prince. He knew only too well how difficult it was for a woman to marry into the royal family.
His granddaughter had a bad life and ended up with such a terrible father. He is also old and cannot protect her for long, so he hopes to find a good marriage for her while he is still alive so that she can rely on her for the rest of her life.
Who knew that the emperor suddenly decreed a marriage!
He, the master, didn't notice it at all!
Taifu Pei felt that he had been tricked by the emperor!
Because of the marriage, Pei Shaorong's haircut suddenly changed its meaning.
Originally, it was almost time for everyone to leave after the Hairpin Ceremony was completed, but now instead of leaving, people continued to come! Some people who were not invited to attend the haircut ceremony immediately came with generous gifts after hearing the news of the marriage, saying they were congratulations!
They are here to congratulate them, and it is impossible for the Pei Mansion to drive them away!
As a result, there were more and more guests. Fortunately, Mrs. Pei was prepared, otherwise it would have been embarrassing.
In Pei Shaorong's yard, several girls who were close to her crowded together to congratulate her.
"I really didn't expect that the emperor would suddenly grant a marriage. Ah Rong, have you and His Highness the Fifth Highness known each other before?" Sun Xuehe asked.
Xu Muhua couldn't help but glance at her, but Sun Xuehe only looked at Pei Shaorong and didn't notice that Xu Muhua looked at her strangely.
After hearing this, Lu Yingzhu and Mo Ying felt that Sun Xuehe's words seemed strange, but they couldn't say it out loud, so they thought they were being careless.
Although Pei Shaorong has the best relationship with Xu Muhua, she is also quite good with the others. They often meet each other, recite poems, paint and travel around the lake. So I didn't think much when I heard Sun Xuehe asked this question, I just thought she was curious and asked casually.
She smiled and said: "Everyone knows His Highness the Fifth Prince. Have you forgotten? Last autumn hunting. I did meet His Highness the Fifth Prince a few times later, but I didn't have much contact with him."
What she said was not a lie. How could a woman in a boudoir have much contact with a foreign man?
"So that's how it is..." Sun Xuehe said, looking like she had nothing on her face, but only she knew what she was thinking in her heart.
"I really didn't expect that the emperor would grant marriage to A Rong and His Highness the Fifth Prince today! A Rong, is this a blessing upon another? Hey, are we going to start preparing gifts for A Rong's wedding?" Lu Yingzhu said jokingly asked.
Pei Shaorong couldn't help but blush, and raised his fist to hit Lu Yingzhu. Lu Yingzhu quickly hid behind Xu Muhua, and shook his head at her proudly, making Pei Shaorong so angry that he couldn't laugh or cry.
"The imperial decree doesn't say when the wedding will take place, so don't worry about preparing gifts, right?" Xu Muhua said.
Although he said so, Xu Muhua knew it in his heart.
The wedding edict did not mention the wedding date, but now that the edict has been issued, the wedding date will be set later when the Qin Tian Jian calculates a suitable date. And it won't be long before Zhao Chengye will be established as the prince. In this way, the wedding of the two will have to be upgraded to a higher standard. Just go through the procedures and I don't know how long it will take.
Therefore, the wedding date will not be set too hastily. As sisters and friends, they still have time to prepare gifts.
But she can't say it! She has to pretend she doesn't know anything!
"Mu Hua!" Pei Shaorong saw that she was also making noise and gave her an angry look.
Xu Muhua covered her lips and smiled, "Oh, it's time for male students to get married, and it's time for female students to get married. We are all our own people, why are you so shy! I won't talk about you, and the others will probably get married soon."
She said and winked at a few people.
Indeed, Xu Muhua is the youngest among these people. The others are all of the same age, and even Sun Xuehe and Mo Ying were born in the same month, and it wasn't long before they were born.
Lu Yingzhu is the eldest, turning fifteen at the beginning of the year. I heard that Mrs. Lu has been very close to a lady in an adult's house recently, and she happens to have an eighteen-year-old second son.
It's just that the marriage between the man and the woman will not be revealed until it is finalized, lest it not be finalized and ruin the woman's reputation.
Lu Yingzhu and Mo Ying were fine, but Sun Xuehe's expression froze for a moment, she pursed her lips, and the smile on her face was a bit forced.
Her family also arranged marriage arrangements for her, but it was not as good as some of them.
She comes from a high background, her father is the Minister of Rites, and she is also a legitimate daughter. But she couldn't help but not being favored. Her parents only cared about her younger brother. Seeing that she was old enough, her father still wanted to use her marriage to benefit himself and the Sun family, without considering her lifelong happiness at all.
A few days ago, she accidentally overheard her father and mother discussing, saying that they wanted to betroth her to their son who was on the peak.
But he was already in his thirties when he reached the peak, and his first wife still died! His first wife also gave birth to his legitimate son, who has grown up and is only a few years younger than her!
How does she accept this?
They are all legitimate ladies, but Ah Rong is still not favored. Her mother was bullied by an aunt in the palace, but she was given a marriage to the fifth prince. And she may be sold by her father soon!
The more I thought about Sun Xuehe, the more uncomfortable she became, and she couldn't help but reveal some clues on her face.
"Xue He, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so ugly? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Mo Ying suddenly asked.
The eyes of several people suddenly fell on Sun Xuehe.
It was obviously a look of concern, but Sun Xuehe somehow felt that everyone seemed to know that her father wanted to betroth her to an old man whose first wife died and had a legitimate son. It always felt like everyone was pitying her.
She clenched her hands hard, "It's okay, maybe... maybe I didn't get a good rest last night, and I was too happy and emotional today, so for the moment... you don't have to worry, I'm fine, I just need to rest for a while."
