Back to the marriage proposal, helping the incompetent husband to rise to the top

Chapter 150 Marriage Grant
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Qianxi's voice sounded in her ears.

Ye Wanqing came back to her senses: "Nothing."

As soon as he finished speaking, a servant came hurriedly: "Miss, someone from the palace has come to announce the imperial decree. He has arrived and is waiting for you and the eldest and second young masters in the flower hall."

Flower Hall.

As soon as Ye Wanqing arrived at the door, she heard voices coming from inside.

Ye Chenxi's voice was particularly clear: "Next year, should the emperor grant me a marriage?"

"Does the young master have a lady he likes?" asked a familiar voice.

Ye Chenxi said: "Not yet."

The man smiled and said, "Young Master, you can take a look at which noble lady you like. When you are old enough, I will ask the Emperor to grant you marriage."

"Okay, okay!" Ye Chenxi responded.

Ye Wanqing was listening when Ye Chenting's voice came from behind her: "Qing'er, why don't you go in?"

Ye Wanqing turned around.

Today, my second brother really changed into a dark green brocade robe embroidered with luxurious dark patterns, his hair was neatly tied up, and he looked noble and gentle.

Not far away, father and mother also came.

Ye Wanqing greeted: "Father, mother, second brother."

Chu Yanrong said gently: "Go in."

Hearing the voice outside, Ye Chenxi stood up: "Mother and others are here."

The eunuch who had just come yesterday came out with a few young eunuchs and said, "I greet Her Royal Highness the Princess, and meet the Marquis, the Young Lady, and the Second Young Master."

"No need to be polite, just pass on the order."

Chu Yanrong raised her hand and slowly walked into the flower hall.

Except for the eldest princess, everyone else had to kneel down and listen to his orders.

The eunuch who delivered the decree cleared his throat and said, "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: I have heard that Shu Wan, the daughter of Cao Ke Ding, the governor of Qingzhou, is well-mannered, gentle, virtuous, and kind... I am very pleased to hear this. Chen Ting, the second son of Princess Shanrou, is both talented and beautiful, a man of gold and jade, skilled in both civil and military affairs, and respectful and obedient. Shu Wan is still waiting to be married, and she and Chen Ting are a perfect match. I now grant them marriage and choose an auspicious day to get married. I decree this."

The eunuch handed the imperial edict to Ye Chenting: "Congratulations to the Second Young Master. No, congratulations to Lord Ye on the double happiness."

Ye Chenting took the imperial edict with both hands: "I thank the emperor for his grace."

The eunuch who delivered the imperial edict had to go to the Yongchang Marquis's Mansion to deliver the imperial edict, so it was inconvenient for him to stay for long. After receiving the reward, he took his people and left the Princess's Mansion.

In the flower hall, Ye Chenting carefully opened the imperial edict and read it again.

Ye Chenxi leaned over and said, "Wow! This is the imperial edict written by the emperor himself! Second brother, the emperor uncle still loves you very much!"

Ye Chenting, who has always been introverted, was filled with joy at this moment: "I never thought that the emperor would personally write a marriage decree for me..."

Chu Yanrong gently reminded: "Chen Ting, pack up and follow your father to the palace to express gratitude later."

"Son, I understand." Ye Chenting nodded vigorously.

After packing everything, Ye Hongwei took Ye Chenting out.

Chu Yanrong couldn't help but sigh: "When I woke up in the morning, before I even got up, I heard the call of a magpie coming from the sycamore tree in the yard. It turned out that it was about the marriage."

"My second brother is the first one to be granted marriage after the palace examination!" Ye Chenxi munched on a crisp peach at the side: "The top three candidates have not been granted marriage yet, but my second brother is already far ahead!" Chu Yanrong glanced at her daughter and said, "The next one should be the top candidate."

Ye Wanqing looked calm.

Ye Chenxi puffed up his cheeks and said, "Lu Jilian is already twenty-one, it's time for him to be married off, so that he won't always covet my sister! However, the older princesses have all been married, and the oldest remaining princess is only twelve years old. I wonder who the emperor will marry Lu Jilian?"

"Chenxi." Chu Yanrong gently reproached: "Who the emperor wants to marry Lu Jilian has nothing to do with Qing'er. Don't say what you just said in the future."

Ye Chenxi shrank his neck: "I was wrong..."

Chu Yanrong stood up and said, "Qing'er, the size of your wedding dress has been altered. Would you like to go with me to take a look today? Also, you should accompany me to count the dowry in the next few days so that you can have a better idea of ​​it."

Ye Wanqing said obediently: "Okay."

In the next few days, Ye Wanqing was busy checking the dowry, while Chu Yanrong was invited into the palace by the Queen to help organize the Dragon Boat Festival banquet.

After Ye Chenting was granted marriage, he was too happy to stay idle at home, so he went to the Hanlin Academy to take up his post early.

In addition to practicing martial arts every morning and evening, Chu Anlan and Ye Chenxi also have to go to the Imperial College to study during the day.

……

As May approaches, the weather becomes hotter.

After the wedding dress was completed and the dowry was counted, Ye Wanqing had nothing to do. She began to feel lazy and lay on the couch in the waterside pavilion reading every day.

This day.

It was very hot in the afternoon.

After the attendant changed the ice jar, Ye Wanqing lay on the couch and took a light nap.

Yingxiang and Qianxi were sitting by the pillars of the pavilion, doing needlework, holding fans and insect repellent powder.

When Ye Wanqing was about to fall asleep, Ye Chenxi's voice came from the gate of the courtyard, getting closer and closer: "Sister, do you want to hear some fresh and hot rumors?"

gossip?

Ye Wanqing was much more awake, and opened her eyes which were soaked with water due to the drowsiness: "Shouldn't you be in the Imperial College at this time? Did you skip school again? Father is taking a day off today."

"I didn't skip school." Ye Chenxi swaggered up to the waterside pavilion and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Didn't a group of new officials take office recently? I heard that a new official in the Hanlin Academy made a big mistake while working, implicated a group of people, and caused a group of people to stay up for two days and two nights to remedy the situation.

The emperor was very angry when he heard about this, and asked the Imperial College Master and the Imperial Academy Scholars to give three days of classes to all the civil servants this year. During these three days, we don't have to go to school!"

"Isn't it the Dragon Boat Festival in three days? You can be lazy for a few days." Ye Wanqing asked: "You came to me today to tell me this?"

"Of course not!" Ye Chenxi sat opposite her, sticking out his tongue in the heat.

At this time, Yingxiang brought a bowl of ice drink.

Ye Chenxi picked up the ice drink and drank it in one gulp: "Before going home, Du Shenyuan invited me to go to the women's school to catch cicadas, so we went there secretly. On the way, we met two officials who were going to the Imperial College to pick up books for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and were gossiping there. I heard that after the court session yesterday, the emperor kept Lu Jilian to talk and asked Lu Jilian if he had someone he liked and wanted to grant him a marriage. As a result, Lu Jilian replied to the emperor that he liked you. At that time, there were several officials present.

The emperor was too embarrassed to admit his mistake and smashed a teacup on the spot, with the broken porcelain almost scratching Lu Jilian's face. The emperor said that he would give him the daughter of King Anxian, but Lu Jilian knelt down and kowtowed on the spot, refusing the marriage.

The emperor was furious and punished Lu Jilian to kneel in the hall for a day. He also summoned Marquis Dingyuan into the palace and gave him a severe scolding before allowing Marquis Dingyuan to take the man away.

According to the news from Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, last night, Lu Jilian was punished by the family law and was also punished to kneel in the ancestral hall. He was unable to attend the court today. An Lan doesn't know yet, I will come back and tell you first! I will go to Prince Dun's Mansion later and tell An Lan the good news to make him happy, hehe..."

After finishing his speech, Ye Chenxi felt dry in the mouth.

Ye Wanqing felt mixed emotions.
