Concubine Nong has some fields

Chapter 797

So many betrothal gifts really frightened a lot of people. This is more than 500 betrothal gifts. Every lady's eyes turn green. They all envy Princess Xiyao to death.

What is the concept of a dowry gift of more than 500 levies? A normal princess is only 120 levee at most, which is already enough, but Princess Xiyao's dowry gift is as high as 500 levies, which is a record high.

It took a long time to carry this dowry to the princess mansion.

After the betrothal gift was carried, old man Shen saluted Helian Jue, "Your Majesty, Prince Chen has arrived, let's start the engagement banquet."

"Okay, what Elder Shen said is that it's Chen'er's honor for the girl to fall in love with Chen'er. In the future, Chen'er will be devoted to the girl. Can Elder Shen still rest assured?"

"Your Majesty's words, I should rest assured that Yue'er and Prince Chen are destined to be married, and the ministers are very satisfied with Prince Chen."

"Mr. Shen is careless, I am very happy."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Old man Shen saluted.

He Lianjue said to Shen Junren again: "My in-laws, having a daughter like a girl is really enviable. Now that the girl is engaged to Chen'er, she will be a member of our Helian family in the future, so my in-laws are very reluctant." Continuous tone of ridicule.

Shen Junren hurriedly bowed, "Your Majesty, the grassroots dare not be the emperor's in-laws." Shen Junren has no job, and can only be called a grassroots in front of He Lianjue, and only those with official positions can be called ministers.

"What did the in-laws say? You and I are in-laws. As for the future, don't call yourself grassroots. As the princess's father, I will grant you the Marquis of Jing'an. My mother-in-law is the wife of the third rank, and the title of Marquis of Anle has the eldest son. Inherited, your title is also inherited by the eldest son."

"Thank you, Majesty Long En." Shen Junren and Liu Shi knelt down.

He Lianjue helped her up, "Today is the engagement banquet for the two children, we are in-laws, so don't kneel, get up quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"It doesn't have to be like this, just let the girl come out and meet everyone."

When He Lianjue spoke, Mrs. Cao sent someone to call Shen Lanyue out.

Shen Lanyue came to the front yard from her room, and bowed to everyone who was sitting again.

"Yue'er, what do you think of this marriage?" Old Man Shen asked in a formal way.

Shen Lanyue shyly said, "But it's up to grandpa and grandma." Then she withdrew.

This sentence proves that Shen Lanyue has no objection.

Even if the two families have settled down, the next step is to discuss the day when the two will get married.

He Lian said to Shen's family: "Qin Tianjian has already seen the days. This year, only the 28th of the twelfth lunar month is a good day. We will not choose this one. The good days next year are the sixth day of May, the eighteenth day of October, and the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month. , or set it on the sixth day of May."

The Shen family had no objection and nodded in agreement.

In this way, they had nearly a year to prepare, and it was just in time. Before that, they could arrange Xuan'er's marriage. As for Fan'er and Jin'er, they were not in a hurry.

The two families agreed, and the date of the two of them has been officially set, which will be on the sixth day of May next year.

But at this time someone said: "Your Majesty, the students have something to report." It was Li Wencheng who spoke, and he deliberately brought a few students here today to find something.

Claiming to be a student, He Lianjue knew that he was the student of this exam. He looked over and asked, "What do you want to say?"

"Reporting to the emperor, what the student said was about Princess Xiyao." Li Wencheng bowed and said.

Helian gestured for him to say.

Li Wencheng said: "Report to the emperor, the students want to sue Princess Xiyao for cheating for personal gain and to deceive the majesty."

All the seven brothers of the Shen family stood up and came to Li Wencheng. Shen Yimo's voice was cold, "Say what you just said again."

"Let me just say that Princess Xiyao is engaging in malpractices for personal gain. She is not so kind and considerate of the common people."

Shen Yimo raised his hand to hit him.
