Chapter 190 The first month after the full moon
Rows of eunuchs in bright red robes came in from the main entrance of the Xuanyuan mansion, carrying the dowry gifts. The palace band played music behind them, which was a lively scene.

"General Xuanyuan accepts the order."

"Sir, Xuanyuanhao accepts the order."

Wearing shining armor, this is the eldest son of the Xuanyuan family.

Holding the imperial sword in his right hand, resting his left hand on the clenched fist of his right hand, he knelt on one knee.

"By God's blessing, the emperor ordered that the Xuanyuan family has a girl who has just grown up, exquisite and translucent, with a blue heart, and a model of motherhood in the world. She is specially canonized as a queen. The wedding is scheduled for mid-January after the full moon, and the whole world celebrates it."

As soon as the eunuch who passed the decree finished speaking, Xuanyuan Hao hurriedly took over the edict, "My lord, thank you Lord for your kindness."

"General Xuanyuan, Lingmei will soon be named the Lord of the Six Palaces, and this servant congratulates you."

After reading the imperial decree, he immediately flattered, "Look at these carefully prepared gifts, they are all carefully selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If the general is dissatisfied with anything, you can talk to the slave at any time, and the slave immediately Ask someone to switch."

"No, no, there's no reason why you don't like what the emperor prepared?"

Xuanyuanhao said excitedly, and then glanced at the three camphorwood boxes that the eunuchs put on the ground, all of which contained a lot of gold and silver treasures.

The gift of marriage did come quite suddenly.

Even the emperor didn't mention it when he went to the court today, but now he suddenly gave the dowry, and even the date of the engagement was fixed, which caught people off guard.

"This is, father-in-law, I have the guts to ask, why does the emperor fall in love with Lingmei? Lingmei is in poor health and rarely leaves Xuanyuan Mansion!"

To be precise, he never left the mansion at all.

Xuanyuan Ruo was frail and sickly, it was a deficiency brought out of the mother's womb, and it could not be cured after all the family wealth was lost, only good medicine could be used to hang his life.

"General Xuanyuan, this servant doesn't know about it. Since the emperor has this plan, you and Lingmei can just make good preparations."

"Yes, I understand."

He bowed his hands again and signaled the servants to move the dowry to the backyard, then he took out a bag of heavy silver from his cuff and stuffed it into the hands of the chief eunuch.

"I'm sorry to trouble my father-in-law to go this far. In the future, my sister will enter the palace. Please take care of me."

"Of course, that's of course. The servants will naturally pay close attention to the living expenses of the empress, and there will never be anything wrong with it."

If you take money from others, you should speak well for them.

It's no wonder that such a concubine like him can sit in charge of the family because of his nimble and witty head and know how to get along with others.

"With your words, the minister will feel at ease."

"Don't worry, of course don't worry."

Cheerfully put away the silver belt in his hand, then raised his head to look at the westward sun, "General Xuanyuan, the slave has been out of the palace for a long time, the emperor may be suspicious, if there is nothing else, the slave will go first." Take a step."

"Okay, I will give you a ride."

"Thank you."

The two of you spoke to each other, saying things against your will, and left the general's mansion side by side.

"Miss, it seems that the eldest son is going to sell you."

A woman in a black gauze skirt stood at the corner of the corridor and continued angrily, "I know that your health is not good, but I still want to send you to the palace to suffer. It's not obvious that we have trouble with us!"

If Xuanyuan was the eldest daughter born of Dafang's grandma, she has a very noble status, and the one who is in charge now is the son of the aunt in the backyard.

"Hmph! If it weren't for the second and third sons guarding the frontier, how could the family let him gossip, he really is a bastard from a humble background."

"Brother, this is also a helpless move, so stop talking nonsense here."

A thin girl walked out from behind the maid, wearing a pale pink gauze dress, her hair was loosely scattered behind her head, and the top of her head was tied into a bun with wooden hairpins, she looked very elegant and refined.

"In the future, let Miss Ben hear you talking about Big Brother, and Miss Ben will break your leg."

In addition to reprimanding, I did not forget to threaten a few more words.

"Miss!"

The servant girl squeezed her eyes aggrievedly, and burst into tears, "Isn't this also for your sake, slave girl? Look, since the second and third sons left the general's mansion, when did this eldest son treat us well?" Face, I only know that you will be locked in the backyard and not allowed to go out."

"What do you know? Big brother is afraid that I won't come back after going out!"

With a sharp eye knife, he dragged his close maid to the backyard, "You, the bad thing is because of this mouth, if this lady is no longer around, I'm afraid she will be kicked out of the general's mansion in a short time. "

"When you get out, you get out. Anyway, the slaves have saved enough money, and they can live well outside."

This girl's name is Cherry, and she has been by Xuanyuan Ruo's side since she was a child.

Rather than a master-servant relationship, it's better to say that they are good sisters who talk about everything, and behave better in front of outsiders. If it's just the two of them, they don't need to care about those cumbersome etiquette, and they can do whatever they want.

"My servant swore that I will only serve you as my master for the rest of my life. If you are gone, why are you still here? Are you disgusting?"

"you……"

"Haha... What a sharp-toothed maid, Ruo'er can't beat you."

Before Xuanyuan Ruo said anything, he saw a bright yellow shadow turning down from the low wall, and in the blink of an eye, the person had already come in front of him.

"Ruo'er, I really miss you to death."

He hugged her tightly in his arms, and kissed that cold face fiercely, "Recently, the government affairs are cumbersome, and I have to go against all opinions to marry you, so I don't have time to come and see you, you shouldn't Will you be angry with me?"

"Why should I be angry, the emperor is the real dragon emperor, and I'm just a sick child."

He said he didn't care, but his words were full of sour taste. Seeing her small appearance nestled in his arms, Long Xin was very happy.

"Ruo'er, it's all my fault. If you want to be beaten and punished, I have absolutely no complaints."

Grabbing Xuanyuan Ruo's wrist, he made a gesture to punch himself.

But when someone is angry, he is angry, and if he really wants to do something, he must die of heartache.

"Hate!"

With all his strength, he retracted his arm and gave him another hard look, "Your Majesty, since the imperial edict is below, I am also your legitimate wife, why do you still sneak around? Can't be aboveboard?"

"It's not because of your damn big brother that I can only watch secretly."

"what for?"

"He's going to secretly take you out of the capital, and find another random woman to marry you into the palace."

The person who said this was not the emperor, but a masked palace maid who followed closely beside the emperor. This was not the first time I saw her, but she had never seen her face clearly.

But for some reason, those shining eyes always made me uneasy.
