Splendid Book

Chapter 102
This alleged marriage can be said to have fallen through the eyes of many people.As a result, Shen Lingcheng has been congratulated by many colleagues in the past few days.However, this celebration was more sincere. After all, Duke Wei's mansion was originally the top dignitary in the capital, so Shen Lingcheng's daughter was accused of marrying the Seventh Prince.

It's just that what surprised everyone was that there were many noble girls in the capital who were suitable for marriage, but the emperor chose a girl from the Shen family who was several years younger than the seventh prince, which really made people puzzled.

Concubine De's side was naturally shocked, she and Mrs. Xu had expressed both openly and secretly that Xu Yuexin was her favorite daughter-in-law, and she had mentioned it to the emperor before.I thought it was a foolproof thing, but who knew that such an accident would happen.

For this future daughter-in-law, Concubine De would naturally not publicly show her displeasure.She had mentioned Xu Yuexin's matter to the emperor before, but the emperor didn't say anything at that time.But he turned around and married Ji Yu and Shen Changle. If she showed dislike for Shen Changle, wouldn't she be questioning the emperor's decision.

On the other hand, after Qiao Yun heard the news, she only said coldly, "I finally made my cousin happy."

When Mrs. Yongshun saw her talking in such a weird way, she knew that she was not angry in her heart.It's just that now that she's married after all, she can't get involved in the Seventh Prince's affairs if she can.So Mrs. Qiao taught her a lesson: "As for the matter of the seventh prince, as long as the Concubine De is concerned about it, I think you should live your own life well. But don't mention the seventh prince in front of your son-in-law."

After all, many people in the capital knew that Qiao Yun was chosen by the Concubine De and wanted to be assigned to the Seventh Prince.It's just that things are unpredictable, and something like this happened halfway.Mrs. Qiao also regretted not being able to marry her daughter to Ji Yu, but now that it's a foregone conclusion, it's better to grab the person in front of her.

Qiao Yun immediately rolled her eyes, and said angrily, "If I don't mention it, doesn't it mean he doesn't have ears?"

The relationship between her and Feng Youfeng is neither good nor bad, it's just that little bitch in the house is an eyesore to her every day.

Mrs. Qiao naturally persuaded her a few more words.

So far, the finger marriages of the princes have all come down, which is naturally a matter of joy for several families and sorrow for others.It's just that the smoke of the marriage has not cleared yet, the emperor's imperial decree has caused another wave of waves.

The fourth and fifth princes had already been crowned kings before, and they both opened their mansions outside the palace.However, the sixth prince and the seventh prince have never been conferred. Who would have thought that within a few days of conferring the marriage, the emperor confers conferring on the two princes.In the imperial decree, the sixth prince was conferred the title of King of Chu, which is an uncommon title.

It's just the title of the Seventh Prince Zhao Wang, which is eye-catching.The word Zhao has the meaning of sun, moon and light. This time, it is not eye-catching to be given the title of Seventh Prince by the emperor.

Of course, there are a series of ceremonies for conferring a king, so Ji Yu was busy in the palace and did not leave the palace for a month.And now that he was crowned king and given a marriage, it was imperative to leave the palace and open a mansion.It's just that where the palace is, that can tell the prince's position in the emperor's mind.

The first prince's mansion is the largest among all the princes, but in terms of location, the second prince's mansion is the best, and his mansion is the closest to the imperial palace.The fourth prince, Ji Chang, whose father doesn't love his mother, is not only far away from the palace, but also the smallest among all the princes, even smaller than the fifth prince's residence.

So when dividing the mansion between the sixth prince and the seventh prince, the emperor was very sensible and called them to the Hall of Qinzheng.

"You are getting older now, and you have reached the age of leaving the palace to start a mansion, so I called you here today to ask you about the mansion." The emperor didn't care at all, after all, five of his sons had already left the palace. It's the opening of the mansion, and when it's the turn of these two, he is already familiar with it.

The sixth prince, Jiming, turned his head and glanced at Ji Yu, obviously he didn't understand the matter of the mansion, shouldn't it be the father who decides?
Ji Yu had heard the emperor mention it before, but the father only passed it by at that time.So the two looked at each other, and the elder brother, the sixth prince, spoke first: "Both my son and my seventh brother have lived in the palace since childhood, and I don't know anything about opening a mansion, so everything is arranged by my father."

The emperor nodded in satisfaction, looked at the two of them, and said unhurriedly: "Actually, I have shown you your mansion a long time ago. I just came here to ask. If you have anything you like, feel free to tell me about it." .”

Although the emperor is the father, he is also the emperor. Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king.They are the only ones who receive the rewards, they are not qualified to have things.

So the two said one after another, "But by the grace of my father."

Since this is the case, the emperor told them the location of the mansion that was rewarded to them.The sixth prince's mansion is a little far from the palace, near Yongding Bridge, but the mansion is very big, and the fifth prince lives nearby.

As for Ji Yu's mansion, it was a little closer to the imperial palace, and what surprised him even more was that it was very close to Duke Wei's mansion.He estimated for a while, if he took a carriage, he would be there in about a quarter of an hour.

After all, the Duke of Wei's mansion was originally the top nobleman in the capital, and his family was the one that owned the Iron Book of Alchemy when the dynasty opened, so the mansion is the best in the capital no matter its location or size.And Ji Yu's house was specially prepared by the emperor for him, so this meeting just happened to happen.

Ji Yu was delighted, it would be convenient for Changle to go back to her mother's house in the future.

So even though this mansion is much smaller than the sixth prince's, Ji Yu is still very satisfied.

Now that the finger marriage has been decided, the time for the big wedding should naturally also be fixed.It's just that this time the emperor proposed marriages for the four princes at once, and there is always an orderly order of seniority.The fourth prince was conferred the title of King Wu last year, and has moved outside the palace to open a mansion. This year, with the appointment of marriage, the auspicious date of the wedding has also been set.

King Wu was hired by Najib at the end of June and got married in August.The fifth prince, King Qi, was hired by Najib in July and married in October.As for the sixth prince, his wedding is arranged in December.So in other words, there will be three princes getting married this year.

These auspicious dates were all set by Qin Tianjian, but the prince got married, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs were in a hurry.Fortunately, they have been preparing since last year.In addition, there have been three princes who have been married before, so everyone respects these Najib's engagement etiquette.It is already familiar and familiar.

Of course, these three princes got married this year, but the youngest seventh prince will get next year, just because the future Princess Zhao is only 14 years old this year, and she hasn't even arrived yet.So the emperor simply asked them to do the etiquette next year when the concubine is old enough.

People from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs naturally wished to shout three times, Long live my emperor.

And these other people have all kinds of whispers in private. After all, there are so many noble girls in the capital, but the emperor chose a young girl who is not even old enough to point out to the seventh prince. This is really unbelievable.

On the contrary, someone sneered, saying that each of you only saw the age, but did not see the identity of the little girl.She was born in the Duke of Wei's mansion, and she is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Wei, Shen Lingcheng. Among other things, the elder brother, Shen Ruhui, is now in the court. He is a well-known young talent. I got it right twice, which was quite appreciated by the emperor.

And in this draft, Shen Ruhui's marriage has also been settled, the emperor himself appointed the marriage, this woman is the granddaughter of Princess Wuyi, the eldest daughter of Nie Mingyuan, Minister of Industry.This marriage can be described as extremely well matched.

So although Miss Shen is young, her family background should not be underestimated at all.Quite a few people have seen the emperor's preference for the seventh prince.After all, the concubine of the fourth prince is just the daughter of a third-rank official's family, while the concubine of the fifth prince is the daughter of the Hou family, and the concubine of the sixth prince is his cousin.So it seems that this time, the seventh prince's concubine has the best background in the proposed marriage.

The so-called good things are not afraid of taking too long, with such a well-connected in-law, it doesn't matter if you wait.

But Shen Changle didn't know the people in the capital's speculation about their marriage.In the past few days, she was planning to stay at her grandmother's house, but because her finger marriage came so suddenly, Mrs. Zhang didn't even recover.As for my grandmother's thoughts, it coincided with my grandmother's. She felt that she was a little older than the prince, and she would not be selected no matter what.

But who knew that the emperor would rather let the seventh prince postpone his wedding for a year, so he pointed her to the seventh prince.

So how can the old lady be willing to part with this meeting, she can't wait to prepare this and that at the same time.Fortunately, Mrs. Xu knew what the old man was thinking, so she simply asked Shen Changle to come and stay for a few days to comfort the old man.

So on the day Shen Changle came over, Zhang Ru also came home.

When she saw her niece, she regretted it in her heart.In fact, she has always wanted Changle to be her daughter-in-law, but she felt that she was still young, so she couldn't help but not mention it for a while.But now this is called a regret.

"It's only been a few days, and we Changle are going to get married," Zhang Ru said with emotion, holding her hand with both joy and regret on his face.

Being teased by her, Shen Changle was so ashamed that he couldn't even speak, two blushes flew up on his face, not to mention how shy he was.She lowered her head slightly, and called out shyly, "Auntie..."

Zhang Ru's arm was shaken by her, she smiled lightly, tapped her forehead, and said, "There's nothing to be shy about, when a girl grows up, she should always get married. Don't worry, wait until next year , Auntie saved a dowry for you."

Zhang Ru has only two sons, so she has always treated Shen Changle as if she were her own daughter. If there are no good things for her two sons, she must give them to Shen Changle first.What's more, the little girl is so delicate, this beautiful jewelry can be called complementing each other on her body.

"I won't tell my aunt anymore," Shen Changle turned his head away, although referring to marriage is one thing, but making jokes at Peking University is always another.

After the decree of finger marriage came down, once her heart disease was cured, her whole body quickly recovered, and her complexion was even more radiant than before.

Mrs. Xu listened to them with a smile on the side, but she was also a little disappointed in her heart.As a mother, she can see Zhang Yang's thoughts clearly.At first I thought it was just my cousin who liked my cousin, but when he grew up, although this liking became restrained, how could Mrs. Xu not see it.Ben was still thinking about a kiss to increase the kiss, but Shen Changle was accused of marriage.

Ever since he learned that she was allegedly married to the Seventh Prince, Zhang Yang locked himself in the yard, not thinking about food or tea.

Even the old lady knew about it, but fortunately no one taught him a lesson.After all, for so many years, everyone can see that they have never crossed the line.Moreover, Shen Changle never showed any affection for Zhang Yang, so Xu knew that this matter was just a matter of his son's shaving his head.

Now that it's done, I'm afraid that her silly son will come out soon.

Ji Qishu was in Zhang Yang's yard, seeing him listless, he immediately joked, "Why, you're not in a good mood, why don't we go out for a ride?"

He sat on the reclining chair beside him, looking at Zhang Yang who was reading a book in a leisurely way, but he held the book in his hand for a long time without turning a page.As the saying goes, because of Yi Xiao's emaciation, Ji Qishu took a look at his cousin, it seemed that he was indeed a little thinner.

"Are you still sad for my cousin?" He said casually, but who would have thought that these words touched his back scales, Zhang Yang jumped off the Arhat bed in a hurry, without even wearing shoes, he was very aggressive He walked over, took his hand, and pushed him away.

Ji Qishu has had the best relationship with him since he was a child, how would he know that today he would turn his face if he disagreed with a word, and immediately turned cold, stretched out his hand to push him, and said angrily: "I said you are really angry, if you have the ability, you can Go snatch my cousin back, why are you angry at me?"

As a result, after he finished speaking, Zhang Yang's eyes turned red, and he was dumbfounded, for fear that tears would burst out of his eyes the next moment.The two of them loved to get into trouble together since they were young, and they didn't know how many times they were taught by their own fathers. No matter how hard Zhang Yang was beaten by his uncle, he never shed a tear. Cousin cry.

"Yes, I'm useless, I'm useless," Zhang Yang looked at him, and squeezed out a sentence after a while.

Seeing his dejected appearance, Ji Qishu didn't want to provoke him anymore, so he quickly patted him on the shoulder and coaxed him softly: "Forget it, forget it, there are no grasses anywhere in the world. No matter how nice my cousin is, that's all." She's about to become Princess Zhao, let's forget about her, and I'll be a good guy tomorrow."

Zhang Yang rolled his eyes at him, then went back to the Arhat bed angrily and continued to sit.

Ji Qishu had never seen him so cowardly, so he sat down, patted his shoulder, and comforted him heavily: "To be honest, you lost to the Seventh Prince, that's not wrong."

Zhang Yang raised his head and stared at him fiercely. He didn't want to hear the words "Seventh Prince" again, and it's best not to show this name in front of him in this life.He didn't even want to hear about Qi again.

Although Ji Qishu couldn't quite understand Zhang Yang's mood, he felt that he could reach an agreement with Shen Ruyan.Before he took the Seventh Prince to Shen's Mansion, he was almost hunted down by Shen Ruan afterwards, but unfortunately before he caught him, the imperial decree of marriage came down.

At this time, he felt that Shen Rufan's mood would not be much bettered by Zhang Yang.

"If you talk nonsense, get out of here quickly," Zhang Yang glared at him, apparently not wanting to talk to his cousin who was still rubbing salt on his wound.

On the contrary, Ji Qishu smiled and said: "That can't be done, my mother is still here, I can't get out."

Zhang Yang glanced at him, snorted, and asked casually, "Why is aunt here today?"

Ji Qishu looked at him in surprise, and asked in disbelief, "You didn't know that my cousin came here today?"

Zhang Yang only felt a tightness in his chest, as if he was holding back his breath, and he didn't speak for a long time.

When Ji Qishu saw him like this, he realized that he really didn't know.

It turned out that Mrs. Xu knew what his son was thinking, and was afraid that if Shen Changle came over, he would be stimulated and do something.So he ordered the people around him not to mention this matter, and he stayed in his yard obediently for the past few days and did not go out.

But who would have thought that Ji Qishu's quick talk would be exposed immediately.
