Chapter 472

Shen Qing was only wearing a casual dress, with a brocade belt around her waist, and sat on the horse with her head held high, with a smug smile on her beautiful face.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is a proud young man who has just won the first prize and is about to become the son-in-law.

Of the four great happy events in life, he had two at once, and he was the envy of countless men.

But only when he was not noticed by others, could he see the gloomy look that occasionally flashed in his eyes.

When they arrived at Guanghuamen, Shen Qing dismounted, and with the help of Honglu Temple officials, changed into an official uniform, then walked to Her Majesty the Empress, kneeling three times and prostrating nine times.

"Chen Qing, please get up." The queen asked him to get up with a smile on her face.

After thanking Shen Qing, two little boys in the main roles followed behind Shen Qing, holding wild geese and silk cloth in their hands respectively.

This is a dowry gift for the little princess.

Wild geese are loyal birds, and this as a dowry gift is to show the son-in-law's loyalty to the princess.

After Her Majesty accepted it on behalf of the princess, she began to set off for the Changqing Palace.

There, His Majesty will give the princess's dowry items to the son-in-law, and it will be in front of all the relatives and ministers of the emperor.

Even if a princess marries someone, the imperial court still has relevant regulations. The amount of dowry and the guard of honor must be in accordance with the regulations. Unless there is a special reason, it must not be exceeded.

When she turned around and set off, Shen Qing could finally stand up and raise her head.

He saw Lin Jinyu following His Majesty at a glance, and Liu Qingluo standing beside Lin Jinyu.

The figure that haunted him in his dreams was still exquisite and radiant.

It's just that she didn't look at herself at all.

She was turning her head slightly, looking at Lin Jinyu beside her, with a bright smile on the corner of her mouth, not knowing what she was talking about.

And Lin Jinyu lowered his head and looked at her, his eyes were as gentle as water.

Such a scene fell into Shen Qing's eyes, which made his heart and lungs ache, and he could hardly take his eyes away from them.

His father's enmity and the feeling that he was doomed to be unobtainable made him clenched his hands tightly.However, under the eyes of everyone, he still had to make an expression of excitement and excitement.

All the way to the Changqing Palace in torment, the scarlet carpet on the palace floor made him feel even more dazzling.

Next comes the step of His Majesty's reward.

This was the part that everyone wanted to see the most. The hall became extremely quiet, everyone pricked up their ears and stretched their necks.

Even Qingluo showed an expression of interest.

Royal married daughter!

It was the first time for her to see it with her own eyes, and she had to see what kind of dowry the princess had when she got married.

The queen sat down on the dragon chair, Prince Kang Rui sat beside her, and a group of Honglu Temple officials read aloud a long list of gifts in their hands.

First, what His Majesty bestowed on the son-in-law: jade belts, boots, saddles, etc., as well as 1 bolts of silk and satin, 1000 pairs of jade wares, [-] pieces of clothing, [-] taels of silver, and [-] taels of gold.

This part is entirely rewarded to the consort's private person, which can be regarded as subsidizing his expenses for marrying the princess.

It has to be said that marrying a princess is definitely a good deal that can make a steady profit without accompanying her. Just by looking at the green eyes of those noble men, one can know how generous His Majesty is.

Even Qing Luo secretly smacked her tongue.

Apart from other things, the 1 taels of silver alone is enough for her to serve as a county magistrate for 200 years, and she has to eat or drink.

Qingluo thought secretly, if she had known her son could marry a princess, would Shen Yanzu have tried to embezzle the people's fat...

After reading the rewards for the son-in-law, the next thing is the dowry items for the princess.

The princess's dowry items are numerous and complicated, ranging from gold and silver equipment to clothing, shoes and socks.

Qingluo alone remembers a box of pearls, a pure gold phoenix crown, an emerald costume, several pearls and emerald four-season clothes, gold wares with various names, and the ceremonial guards and sedan chairs that the princess will need to travel in the future. The curtains, carpets, screens, etc. that need to be used.

There are only things that people can't think of, and there are no things that are not in the princess's dowry.

The princess mansion was also prepared early in the morning.

It costs much more for the royal family to marry a princess than for ordinary families.

By the time the long list of dowry items were finished, many people were already falling asleep.

His Majesty announced the beginning of the banquet given by the emperor, while the princess was still dressing up in her palace, waiting for the banquet to end, and the son-in-law would welcome her back to the son-in-law's mansion.

The flowing wine and dishes were served, and the aroma instantly woke up the dignitaries.

Dancers came in to add to the fun, accompanied by musicians.

Chui Chui Da Da, so lively.

Her Majesty and the Prince sat facing each other. Below her were the three princes, and on the other side were the concubine and princess Chu Ying.

Today Chu Ying dressed up and dressed very grandly, but she looked a little depressed, she kept drinking with her head down, and occasionally raised her head to look in a certain direction.

If someone pays attention, they will know that the direction she is looking at is where the Lin family father and son are.

Lin Runan took his two sons and sat at the lower head of the princes, which was considered the most prominent position among the royal relatives.

This shows that the position of the Lin family is also stable.

The female relatives were in the opposite row, and Qing Luo could only sit at the end, but after Mrs. Lin came, she insisted on pulling her to sit next to her, so she was very honored to sit in the seat of Princess Li and Princess Li. nearest location.

The eldest concubine Ye Shi, because she was grateful to Qing Luo for saving the lives of her mother and child, would show her a kind smile from time to time.

But Chu Ying didn't have a good face.

Naturally, it was impossible for her to forget the humiliation of being rejected by Lin Jinyu in public.

My sister has got her wish, but where is her future?

According to the rules of the Great Zhou Dynasty, at the banquet, the son-in-law had to sit next to the table to toast, starting from Her Majesty the Queen, every table could not be left behind.

Shen Qing, who had already changed into a splendid attire, held a wine glass and toasted one by one, starting with Her Majesty the Queen and the Prince.

The queen and the prince just wanted to express their feelings, and put it down after touching their lips a little, but the three princes gave the brother-in-law a lot of face.Especially the eldest prince, who actually dragged Shen Qing to drink three cups.

Shen Qing is his man, and now he has become his brother-in-law. In the eyes of outsiders, the eldest prince's behavior is reasonable.

But when it came to the table of the prince concubine and the eldest princess, the situation was a bit unexpected.

"Consort Shen, congratulations!" The eldest princess stood up holding her wine glass, looking half-drunk, "You are so lucky to be able to marry Jing'er!"

Shen Qing smiled: "Thank you for your praise, Your Highness."

"I'm not flattering you, I'm envious of you!" The eldest princess drank a glass of wine and laughed, "Look, I don't have such a blessing..."

Shen Qing didn't know how to answer the words, so she could only laugh with her, and planned to go to the next table after laughing.

But Chu Ying stretched out her hand to hold him back: "Don't worry, you just had a drink and you're leaving?"

Shen Qing frowned: "Your Highness, you are drunk."

"Who says I'm drunk? I'm sober!" Chu Ying directly raised the jug, "You can drink three cups with Brother Huang, but you can't drink with me? How can I not compare to him? Status or appearance? You talk!"

This word...

Why does it sound a bit weird?
