Daughter of aristocratic family

There are many auspicious days in August and September, and weddings are held one after another. On the 18th, Ling Hao married Miss Liang, on the 22nd Zhu Siyun got married, on the 24th Lu Wenqiu got married, on the 28th Fang Jingshu got married, and on the 30th Jiahe married the princess.

On the second day of September, Prince Zuocheng married Wu Jiaoxing.

On the sixth day of the lunar month, Sun Miaoying got married.

In a blink of an eye, it’s the ninth day of September, the Double Ninth Festival Climbing Day, and the weather has become a little cooler.

Yao Shanzhi asked Zhao Wangshu to climb the mountain. Zhao Wangshu was a little surprised, "Why didn't you follow His Majesty and the others to climb Xiangshan Mountain?"

"If I don't get married, I won't steal other people's limelight." Yao Shanzhi curled her lips and said.

"Has anyone chosen?" Zhao Wangshu took the maid's hand and got into the carriage.

"If you are a daughter of a clan, the emperor's uncle will recognize her as an adopted daughter and make her a princess." Yao Shanzhi said.

Zhao Wangshu raised his eyebrows. As expected, the emperor was reluctant to let his biological daughter get married.

The carriage drove slowly and soon stopped at the foot of the mountain. Zhao Wangshu and Yao Shanzhi got off the carriage and looked up at the towering mountains. Zhao Wangshu sighed: "The air in the mountains and forests is relatively fresh."

Yao Shanzhi sighed and said: "Before, we were a large group of people, making it very lively, but now it's just the two of us."

Before Zhao Wangshu could comfort her, he added: "No, when you marry Mr. Yun, I will be alone."

"Even if I get married, you can still ask me out. Mr. Yun is very busy, and I don't have my parents-in-law to control me, so I am very free." Zhao Wangshu said with a playful smile.

"You keep your word. Don't wait for me to ask you out and try to shirk it in every possible way."

"I won't." Zhao Wangshu said with a genuine smile.

The two of them talked and laughed as they headed up the mountain. The mountain road was rugged, but neither of them felt tired. Instead, they walked happily.

Seeing various wild flowers and grasses along the way, the two of them would stop to appreciate them carefully and identify them, "Yue'er, are these medicinal materials?"

Zhao Wangshu knelt down, looked at it carefully, nodded and said, "Well, this is Bupleurum, it can be used as medicine."

The trees on both sides of the mountain road are lush and green, and occasionally you can hear the crisp chirping of birds from the mountains, which makes people feel happy.

After a while, the two of them reached the top of the mountain. There were many people at the top of the mountain.

Standing on a high place, overlooking the scenery below the mountain, the breeze blows on your face, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

"Yue'er, look how beautiful the chrysanthemums are blooming over there." Yao Shanzhi pointed to the chrysanthemum bushes in the distance and said.

Zhao Wangshu nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, the Double Ninth Festival is a good season to enjoy chrysanthemums."

They found an open space, spread it with a cloth, and the maid put out tea and cakes. Yao Shanzhi and Zhao Wangshu sat down to rest, drinking tea and admiring the chrysanthemums, feeling happy.

A group of wild geese flew south in a human-shaped formation in the sky. Yao Shanzhi patted Zhao Wangshu, "Look, it's wild geese."

Zhao Wangshu looked up at the sky, smiled and said, "Autumn is here, and the birds have begun to migrate."

"The wild geese are flying over the river in the autumn shadow, and I am carrying a pot with my friends on the emerald green." Yao Shanzhi changed the word to suit the occasion.

Zhao Wangshu smiled and continued: "It is rare in this world to smile, and you will return home with your head covered with chrysanthemums."

"But if you're going to be drunk to celebrate the festival, you don't have to come to hate the sunset." Yao Shanzhi raised his tea cup.

Zhao Wangshu clinked glasses with her and said, "This has always been the case. Why should Niushan be alone in his clothes?"

At this time, a melodious song came, "...There are so many rivers and lakes. In those days, the horse show was held in the East, but now Nanpu is desolate. Don't regret that the yellow flowers have not spit out, and teach the pink ones to support each other."

The sound gradually faded away, disappearing into the distant mountains and forests.

"This is "Xijiang Moon·Chongjiu" by Su Dongpo. The words are full of Zen meaning." Yao Shanzhi sighed.

"Li Yi'an's song "Drunken Flower Yin·Nine Days" is so ecstatic that the west wind blows behind the curtain and the person is thinner than a yellow flower. It is even more touching." Zhao Wangshu said. Yao Shanzhi nodded, "This poem by Master Yi An is also unique."

In the midst of their conversation, Green Branch picked a few blooming chrysanthemums and came back, "Girl, County Lord, please give me a hairpin."

"Okay, let's take this one." Zhao Wangshu picked one, "Come on, Gardenia, I'll give you a hairpin."

"Thank you." Yao Shanzhi also picked one and helped Zhao Wangshu put the hairpin on her bun.

They admired each other's chrysanthemums, giggling and praising, "What a beauty."

After sitting for a while, Zhao Wangshu said: "Gardenia, it's getting late, let's go back."

"Yeah, okay." Yao Shanzhi nodded and stood up.

Follow the way you came and slowly walk towards the foot of the mountain.

Back in the city, it was Shen Shizheng. Yao Shanzhi sent Zhao Wangshu home, and happily returned home with the chrysanthemum wine that Zhao Cui gave her.

The next day, Princess Gu'an was revealed. She was a descendant of King Jiangdu. King Jiangdu failed to compete with Emperor Taizong for the throne and was deprived of his title.

This Princess of Gu'an was also a poor person. She lost her father when she was young. When she was about to get married, her fiancé fell off his horse and died, leaving her as a widower.

Then a marriage decree was decreed, which destined her future life.

And she volunteered to get married, in exchange for the title of her brother Lin Qian, from the fourth rank of Zhenguo Lieutenant, and was also rewarded with a fourth-level courtyard.

The emperor was very satisfied that she could come out to solve his problems and asked the queen to issue an edict that the female relatives of the royal family, nobles, civil and military officials must go to add makeup to Princess Gu'an.

Song Yuanqu came to discuss with Zhao Wangshu, "Sister-in-law, I have never had any contact with her, and I don't know what to give her."

Zhao Wangshu thought for a while and said, "She is going to marry far away, so bulky things are not suitable. Let's give her some jewelry."

Song Yuanqu nodded, thinking that what she said made sense, "I have free time today. Let's go out and buy it and send it over tomorrow."

"Okay." Zhao Wangshu and her went to say hello to Mrs. Zhao Cui and went out together to Yage.

When they arrived at Yage, Zhao Wangshu said to the waiter: "Bring me the gold jewelry."

"Do you only want to buy gold jewelry?" Song Yuanqu pointed at the string of jade beads on the counter, "The water quality of that string of beads is quite good."

"If she doesn't like the style of the gold jewelry, she can melt it and make it. And if she is short of silver, she can also melt the gold jewelry and use it as silver." Zhao Wangshu explained.

"Sister-in-law, you have thought too carefully." Song Yuanqu said with a smile.

The aunt and sister-in-law each took a set of pure gold headbands and went to the Zhenguo Lieutenant's Mansion the next day.

The courtyard at the fourth entrance is made of green bricks and black tiles, and pavilions are connected with each other. It is filled with various flowers and plants, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing.

Seeing Song Yuanqu and Zhao Wangshu, Princess Gu'an was very enthusiastic and said, "Thank you for coming to add makeup to me."

"You're welcome, this is a little bit of our thoughts." Song Yuanqu presented the brocade box with both hands.

Princess Gu'an opened the box and saw the golden jewelry inside, and the smile on her face became a little more sincere.

These days, many female relatives came to add makeup to her, but the makeup sent by Song Yuanqu and Zhao Wangshu suited her best.

"You two are really thoughtful." Princess Gu'an said with a smile.

"As long as the princess likes it," Song Yuanqu said with a smile.

After chatting with Princess Gu'an for a few words, and someone else came to add makeup, Song Yuanqu and Zhao Wangshu said goodbye and left.
