Chapter 398 Xiaoding
Yuan Shi was very happy when she heard this, and after Xie Zhiwei left, she couldn't help but said to Nanny Tian, ??"Although my uncle is a concubine, you should pay special attention to us Meimei from this posture. Don't you have wild geese in the garden? My uncle insists on catching them yourself, and doing it yourself is the only way to take us Meimei to heart."
Nurse Tian naturally followed suit with nice words.
Xie Zhiwei returned to Yizhaoyuan, her face was flushed, she didn't expect that Xiao Xun came to say goodbye to her two days ago in order to go outside to catch live geese, and he caught so many geese back, flaunting it in the market, for fear that others would not know that he wanted Xiaoding up.
Zhuang Fengzhi's tears hadn't been wiped away, and the hiccups became more and more severe. The servant girl from Rongfu Hall came in and reported, "Princess, the prince of the county is back. He is in the front yard at the moment. He has caught a car of live geese. The prince invited the concubine to come back." Go to discuss the matter of Xiao Dingli."
When Zhuang Fengzhi heard this, she immediately hugged Zhuang Shi, "Auntie, no, I don't want my cousin to make a small betrothal ceremony, my cousin's first wife can only be me, if he makes a small betrothal ceremony for other girls, I won't live."
Mrs. Zhuang's heart was broken when she heard this, and she also angered Xiao Xun, "Is he in such a hurry? The emperor's decree has only been issued for two days, and he can't wait for a day? The eleven-year-old girl of Princess Duanxian, Welcome in, what can it do?"
The maids didn't dare to answer these words. They lowered their heads and shrunk their shoulders, for fear that the princess would spread the fire on themselves.
Coincidentally, King Xiang couldn't wait any longer, and came here with Xiao Xun, heard Zhuang's words in his ears, and couldn't help saying angrily, "Then tell me, the emperor issued an imperial decree, are you going to delay it?" Don't do it? Hey, why doesn't this king know when the banker is so stubborn and dares to resist the order?"
What does this have to do with dealers?
Mrs. Zhuang was still holding her niece in her arms. The niece was twitching badly. She was very distressed and patted the back of the niece lightly. Zhuang Fengzhi quickly got up with her head down and bowed to King Xiang. The sweetheart standing beside her was startled and almost pouted. She immediately covered her face covered with tears and snot, turned around and walked to the next room. It was really embarrassing. Cousin wouldn't despise him, would he?
No, no, seeing myself crying, my cousin should be very distressed.
"My lord, this concubine doesn't mean that. What I mean is that the emperor has only made an order for two days. There is no need to make an order so quickly. Let people outside know that we are the girl who married the Xie family. It is not good to spread the word. .”
Mrs. Zhuang thought of how much the prince attached great importance to the eldest son of the concubine, and said, "It also contributed to the prestige of Miss Xie's family. If you marry in the future, disrespecting your husband and elders will not be the root of the family's troubles?"
Xiao Xun's face was darkened, he sat down on the chair and sneered, "Then what does the princess want?"
Mrs. Zhuang didn't hear the sarcasm and anger in Xiao Xun's tone. Seeing Xiao Xun sitting down, she thought he meant to have a long talk, and wondered if it was just seeing her niece, what was on her mind?
She hurriedly said, "According to me, since the imperial decree of granting marriage has been issued, there is no need to be so anxious, let her hang out for a few months, and let the Xie family know that the gate of my Prince Xiang's Mansion is not so easy..."
Before Zhuang's words were finished, King Xiang directly threw a cup of tea brought by the maid on the ground, and he squinted at Princess Xiang, "If you don't want to be the mistress of the house and not arrange marriages for the children, my king Please get an expert, you think the Xie family is climbing up my Xiang Palace, you are really stupid!"
The Zhuang family really didn't understand, you said it well, why did King Xiang get angry? She was also furious, for more than ten years, she did not dare to confront King Xiang, her face was pale, and her voice trembled, "Since the prince has spoken, I will go tomorrow."
Xiao Xun took a deep breath, looked at King Xiang, and then at Princess Xiang, "Princess, tomorrow is not an auspicious day, and you have to pay attention to the hour when you make the Xiaoding. The date calculated by Qin Tianjian is March 22. I I will tell the Xie family about this date, and when the date arrives, I will ask the princess to help me make a trip."
After finishing speaking, Xiao Xun turned around and walked out.
King Xiang was also about to step out, but thinking of this matter, for the sake of face, he still had to rely on Princess Xiang, and he couldn't tear himself apart with her for the time being, so he had to swallow his anger and say, "There are still ten days, this little Ding Please worry more about the ceremony, for Ah Xun's marriage, this king will ask for an order and let the Ministry of Rites handle it."
Ministry of Rites? Only the weddings of princes and princesses will be handled by the Ministry of Rituals. It's not like Xiao Xun has no father or mother, so he let the Ministry of Rites to take care of it. How much respect is this for Xiao Xun and Xie Zhiwei?
If the person who is engaged to Xiao Xun is the dealer, then this dignity belongs to the dealer. Zhuang's heart is still very angry, but right now, this marriage is ordered by the emperor, unless Xie Zhiwei dies suddenly, otherwise, it will not be her turn to be the girl of the Zhuang family anyway.
Master Zhuang thought for a while, and said, "My lord, this marriage is a match made in heaven. I will definitely take it to heart. Even if the Ministry of Etiquette arranges it, I will keep an eye on it. Make it perfect."
Hearing this, King Xiang felt much more at ease, and felt that his concubine was not useless. If she could really do what she said, she might as well give her more dignity in the future.
"It's just that the prince has ever thought about it. The prince of the county is already fourteen years old, and the princess of Duanxian is only eleven years old. I heard that the Xie family will keep the girl until she is seventeen or eighteen years old. When are you going?"
King Xiang also heard the words from the Xie family. He was still thinking at the time, did the Xie family love the girl? Or is there another purpose? King Xiang is not afraid either, when the time comes to ask the Empress Dowager for a letter of honor, the Xie family dare not deny it.
At this moment, he turned his head and looked at Zhuang Shi with displeasure, "What do you want to say?"
"The concubine means that since the main concubine has already been decided and she is young, it is better to consider letting the side concubine enter the door first, not to ask for a concubine, but to stay in the prince's house to serve, and then invite the concubine to come in after the concubine passes the door. Feng, it will not hurt the dignity of the princess of the county."
Logically speaking, this is a good arrangement.
After all, Xiao Xun is not young anymore. An older son in an ordinary wealthy family already has a room, but Xiao Xun is surrounded by servants, and even a female mosquito cannot fly into the room.
King Xiang took a deep look at Mrs. Zhuang and sneered, "If you can persuade Ah Xun to accept your stupid niece, I have no objection!"
Mrs. Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief. For her, as long as the prince agrees, the matter is half successful. After King Xiang left, Zhuang Fengzhi came out from the next room. Just now, she heard what uncle and aunt said. Immediately with a smile on his face, he ran over and hugged Mrs. Zhuang's arm, "Auntie, uncle agrees? Then you go and tell your cousin now, why don't you also place a small order on March 22, and have a day with Miss Xie! "
