Chapter 228 The big call for marriage

Li Xiao just watched the whole process, but she felt heartbroken. She planted those flowers and plants herself before she got married!

If she hadn't thought that today was Xiaoguai's full moon party and it was not appropriate to cause any commotion, she wouldn't have spared Fan Qi!

Fan Ruoqi stopped Li Qingsong. In addition to the two parties and accompanying servants, the only other person who knew about it was Li Xiao.

As Li Xiao wished, the full moon banquet ended happily and successfully, and Xiaoguai also got his own name on the full moon day: Li Wenyuan.

The life of the Li family is as peaceful and harmonious as ever, and has not been affected by some irrelevant people and things.

But the "small-bellied" Li Xiao made a complaint to his minister after returning to the palace that day. He felt aggrieved throughout the whole process, which made Ouyang Yiyun laugh out loud!
A few days later, before Fan Ruoqi had time to return to Siping Mansion, her two dowry shops in the capital both had problems.
A restaurant with average business was found to have used the meat of poultry and livestock that died of illness. The reputation of the restaurant was greatly damaged. After the incident, it began to close down. Even if it reopened after half a month of renovation, it was still empty.

Another shop, a ready-to-wear shop, was reportedly discovered to have used rain-soaked cotton cloth and often passed it off as shoddy. The shop's reputation was damaged and its business went from bad to worse.

When Li Xiao knew the news, he happily shared it with Ouyang Yiyun, saying that "evil people will be punished by their own destiny". He was so happy that he even ate half a bowl more for dinner.

Mou Yun, who did good things without leaving his name, saw that his wife was happy, so he naturally took the opportunity to have a good meal. He really hoped that there would be more people like Fan Qi, so that he could have the opportunity to have more good meals.

Fan Ruoqi's matter is insignificant to both Li Qingsong and Li Xiao. Just listen to it and enjoy it, and it will be over.

Time is still moving forward according to its own will.As soon as April is over, May is here.

Although many places in the north suffered from snowstorms last winter, fortunately, wheat basically survived. At the end of April and beginning of May, people harvested wheat, and life was not too difficult.

During the snowstorm in Dali last year, Dameng thought he had waited for a good opportunity and began to tentatively harass the northern border of Dali. Unexpectedly, he directly asked General Zhenbei to drive him further north for more than 300 miles.

Just kidding, the Zhenbei Army now has sufficient military rations, and there are now 2 soldiers in the army equipped with down jackets. They are not afraid of the severe cold in the north!
The two countries originally negotiated last year, and Mongolia was given [-] war horses and [-] sheep. It also compensated Wendu on the border to Dali.

Now, only a year later, a defeated country actually took the initiative to invade the Dali border again. Not only was it driven north, but in April, it not only lost another [-] horses and [-] sheep, but also lost two cities.

At this point, Dameng's vitality was seriously damaged, and for a while he could only focus on recuperating.

Dazhao in the west of Dali borders Dameng. Seeing that Dameng was beaten to pieces by Dali, he was worried that his family would become a "blood bag" for Dameng to recuperate. Without saying a word, he sent a princess and a princess. , want to get married.

The princess and the princess entered the capital in early May.

On the day when the delegation was summoned to Beijing, Li Xiao happened to be returning from Ouyang Yiyun's outing in the countryside. He took a look from a distance and saw that the princess and the princess were very beautiful.

"I don't know which prince is lucky enough to have such a beautiful girl." Li Xiao said with a smile on his lips.

"No matter who it is, it all depends on Uncle Huang's decision," Ouyang Yiyun said, "In short, Prince Xiaoyao, just listen to Uncle Huang's words."

When Li Xiao heard this, he was noncommittal.

When the envoys were summoned to Beijing, a banquet was naturally held, and Li Xiao, as a member of Xiaoyao Palace, was naturally included in the banquet.

It was also at this time that Li Xiao had the opportunity to observe two exotic beauties up close.The cheekbones of Dazhao women are much more prominent than those of Dali women; their noses are high and straight, which makes their bronze faces look uniquely beautiful.

That princess, named Princess Mina, is one of the concubines of King Dazhao. She just got hairpins in April this year.The princess is Princess Duoqin, the daughter of the third prince of Dazhao. The eldest princess is exactly two years old.

After the envoy explained their purpose, the emperor politely asked the two men if there were any young talents he liked at the banquet.

Unexpectedly, the princess took a fancy to Ouyang Yiyun at a glance, and was so shocked that the delicious food that Li Xiao was about to put into his mouth fell back into the bowl!

Li Xiao: This is really a special melon, it’s so satisfying!

Ouyang Yiyun seemed not to have heard Princess Duoqin's words. She didn't even look at her and just served her daughter-in-law to eat.

Duoqin saw that Ouyang Yiyun was so attentive to Li Xiao, and he was even more unwilling to give up. He said bluntly that as long as he could stay with Ouyang Yiyun, even if he was unknown and had no status, he would do it!

When Li Xiao heard this, he glanced sideways at the person next to him, then ate the pastry he handed him in one bite, chewing it as if he was eating Ouyang Yiyun himself.

Ouyang Yiyun: This is just a man sitting at a banquet, and the pot comes from the sky. He is unjust!

The interaction between the young couple was not only seen by Princess Duoqin, but also the emperor who was in a high position.

The emperor still likes this young couple. At least, he still counts on this couple for his granary and the rations of his army!
Therefore, the emperor naturally blocked Princess Duoqin's words.

On the second day of the banquet, the marriage partner of Princess Meina and Princess Duoqin was decided.

Princess Meina gave the seventh prince the title of principal concubine, and Princess Duoqin gave the fourth prince the title of concubine.

When the news reached Yunxiao Courtyard, Ouyang Yiyun was squeezing his shoulders to apologize to his wife. As for what crime to apologize for, it was naturally the crime of attracting bees and butterflies.

Fortunately, before the wedding, Princess Meina and Princess Duoqin would live in the palace, and the nuns in the palace would teach them the etiquette of the Dali calendar. There would be little opportunity to see outsiders. Thinking of this, Li Xiao reluctantly accepted it. Forgive me. someone.

The atmosphere here in Yunxiao Courtyard is full of affection and just right, but in Concubine De's Yonghe Palace, the atmosphere at this time is not so good.

"Mother and concubine, what do you mean by this? Are you planning to let your son out early?" the fourth prince Ouyang Yibin said dissatisfied.

"You are so frizzy, how unbecoming!" Concubine De looked at her son in front of her, frowned and shouted softly, "Didn't there once be a concubine from Dameng in the Queen's Palace? As long as she is not the official concubine, it doesn't matter. .”

"If he really said he was out, I'm afraid the one from Yikun Palace would really want to cry!" As she said this, Concubine De tugged at the corner of her mouth and laughed.

In the Yikun Palace where Concubine De was mentioned, Concubine Xian really cried and her eyes turned red.Not far away from her, the seventh prince Ouyang Yiqin sat.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is going to destroy the Qin family directly, and there is still a possibility of you, Qin'er." After Concubine Xian finished speaking, she started crying again. (End of chapter)
