    The marriage decree was issued in the early morning of the second day.

    Originally, Yan Zhao who was lying on the bed was pulled up by the maid early in the morning because he stayed up late last night to read the script and slept too late. Then he knelt down with everyone in the Xiao Mansion to listen to the decree in a daze.

    "...Yan Zhao, the daughter of the Yan family, has a gentle appearance, a leisurely nature, a dignified appearance, and commendable virtues. Today, I decree to marry the sixth prince, Si Tuzhou, as the main concubine. The secretary will prepare a book of ceremonies, and the master will implement it.this!"

    The eunuch Xuanzhi's shrill and drawn out voice completely startled Yan Zhao's last drowsiness away.

    And everyone in the Xiao Mansion was dizzy from the huge thunderstorm, as if they were dreaming, otherwise how could such a good thing happen to the Xiao Mansion. Even if Yan Zhao's surname is Yan, she is still the niece of the Xiao family's direct relatives.

    Yan Zhao also looked dazed, she made a deal with Si Tuzhou, but she didn't expect him to be so active, it's only been a few days.

    It was Fan who was the most prudent, the first to react, and with a smile on his face, he stuffed the eunuch Xuanzhi with a kit containing golden beans.

    Although people are not necessarily lacking, the rules and etiquette that should be known are still indispensable.

    Sure enough, after receiving the red envelope, the smile on the eunuch's face became more real, and he added a word respectfully, "Miss Yan is a great blessing, and His Royal Highness the Sixth Highness personally asked the emperor for this marriage decree." .”

    These words also imply the reason for the marriage, and Miss Heyan is the favorite of the Sixth Prince.

    Otherwise, with the status of a niece, even being a prince and side concubine would be too much. Fan thought in his heart.

    The eunuch Xuan Zhi pointed to the several boxes that accompanied him, "These are all gifts from His Majesty and Concubine Shu. In a few days, the Concubine may call Miss Yan and Mrs. Yan into the palace."

    Xiao Mingjin is still dizzy, she was still worrying about her daughter's marriage yesterday, thinking whether it is against Capital City, why not go back to Jiang Nan to see each other.As a result, the imperial decree of marriage came today, and her daughter was still assigned to be married to the sixth prince as his concubine.

    She couldn't even dream of such a thing.

    The eldest uncle Xiao Tingen was naturally very happy, and there was joy on his always serious and upright face. This is an opportunity to become a relative of the emperor, not to mention that the sixth prince is the son of a noble concubine, with a high status and a good reputation.

    The old lady took Yan Zhao's hand and said happily, "I knew that our Ah Zhao is a good and blessed boy."

    Yan Zhao pretended to be shy and was able to avoid the sound of congratulations and went back to the room. However, as soon as the door was closed, his mother Xiao Mingjin straightened her face and stared at Yan Zhao closely, "Tell mother, did you know Sixth Form a long time ago?" Prince?"

    Otherwise, why would the sixth prince ask His Majesty to marry him, and even ask for the position of Concubine? She still feels dizzy when she thinks about the imperial edict of marriage.

    Yan Zhao was not surprised that her mother would be surprised by this. Anyone would feel that the marriage decree came suddenly.

    However, the secret of crossing cannot be revealed, so Yan Zhao picks and chooses to talk about it, such as meeting the sixth prince with Princess Yong Yang in the royal hunting ground, and for example, after saving people and going ashore in the eldest princess's mansion, the six The prince borrowed the maid beside him who was skilled in medicine to show her, and even came to visit and cared for her.

    These are all traceable, and they are not afraid of people knowing.

    Xiao Mingjin heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, but was also a little puzzled, after only meeting a few times, the sixth prince went to the Holy Master to ask for a marriage, could it be love at first sight?

    After Yan Zhao heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. But Xiao Mingjin believed it instead. Didn't she and her husband also pass by the bridge in a carriage at the beginning, and lost their heart after just one glance, and then she would not marry her husband.

    She felt that her mother was more interested in sex, and fortunately, her father was middle-aged, he had the temperament of a refined and handsome man, and he was not greasy at all.

    Apart from that, Xiao Mingjin was still a little worried and nervous, "I was expecting you to marry a good man, and I didn't want to be rich, as long as life went smoothly. But I never thought that you would marry into the royal family..."

    Even Yan Zhao herself didn't expect that she just came to Capital City to see a friend, but ended up putting herself in it instead.

    But there's nothing wrong with it, although Yan Zhao doesn't know if he likes Si Tuzhou, if he likes it, it's kind of like it.But if you choose a person to spend your future life with in this ancient time, and that person is Si Tuzhou, Yan Zhao will not refuse.

    Not only did the corners of her lips curl up, but her eyes were also smiling. The worries in Xiao Mingjin's heart suddenly faded a lot, and the best thing is for her daughter to be happy.

    ——

    On the other hand, the niece was married as the princess. As the uncle's family in Capital City, the Fan family must be busy.It is estimated that many people will come to congratulate her in the next few days, and she still has to prepare for entering the palace.

    Nanny Chang couldn't help but said, "I didn't expect Miss Cousin to be so blessed."

    In the blink of an eye, she became a prince and concubine, like a sparrow flying up a branch and turning into a phoenix.Thinking back to when Great Aunt and Ms. Biao first came to Capital City, wife still had a headache for the old lady who wanted to match matchmaking. It has been less than three months since worked hard.

    Fan Shi also sighed, "Who says it's not." Even she will salute to her niece in the future.

    She told Nanny Chang again, "You all have to be careful in serving me, and don't make any mistakes."

    Nanny Chang quickly said yes, even if the wife didn't say anything, the servants in the mansion would know what to do. The identities of Si Great Aunt and Miss Cousin are not what they used to be, who would dare to neglect them.Not to mention anything else, let's just say that those maids who were lucky enough to be assigned to Liluoyuan were probably very happy, and maybe they could marry Miss Biao to the Prince's Mansion.

    The news of the gift of marriage quickly spread throughout Capital City, and it exploded.

    Many people thought that they had heard it wrong. Even if the sixth prince Si Tuzhou was not the most favored prince, he would definitely rank in front of His Majesty.For the first time, the future is almost the same.

    Now among the princes, there are only five princes and six princes who have not yet had a concubine at the age of marriage.

    Needless to say, the fifth prince, marrying the carefully cultivated daughter-in-law of the family is a waste of time, so no one has paid attention to it.Instead, the Sixth Prince became the only sweet pastry here.How many people are staring at Capital City.

    As a result, this great blessing fell on the daughter of a sixth-rank official.Even with the honor of the Xiao family, there was a Mrs. Marquis JinYuan in the past, and now there is even a prince and concubine. The late Old Shangshu Xiao may also have a smile on his face.

    There are still people who are wondering, two years ago, Concubine Shu in the palace was still single-mindedly picking up noble girls from various families, how could she agree to such a marriage now.

    Soon, some well-informed noble and noble families found out that this was the marriage gift that the Sixth Prince personally entered the palace to ask His Majesty.

    Now the sourness is even more soaring, don't know how many noble ladies tore off their veils, and are full of envy and hatred for this girl Yan who has no family background, talent and appearance.

    Considering that the marriage decree also praised Yan's daughter's virtues and profound blessings, it can't help but remind people of the act of diving into the Princess's mansion to save people that day.

    At that time, some people were sympathetic and pitiful after the incident and said that although they saved people, they also damaged their reputation for nothing, and those famous families were unwilling to marry in.

    Thinking that such a woman who behaved extremely disrespectfully, was not only praised by His Majesty for her virtue, but also became the fiancée of the sixth prince. There was even some gossip that the sixth prince had visited this girl Yan that day.

    Could it be that the act of diving to save people could still be favored by the sixth prince, and to get such a good marriage, then there were many noble ladies who dared to jump down with their eyes closed in the eldest princess's mansion that day. This jump may be the ultimate wealth for himself and his family.

    Not to mention how many people outside the palace were arguing or beating their chests. After finishing the morning court, Emperor Jianming came to the Chongyang Palace where Concubine Shu lived.

    No need to think about it, Concubine Shu would not be very satisfied with this marriage.

    Although Concubine Shu and the Duke of Changguo valued the third prince Situ Yu more, they definitely did not love this youngest son. She refused on the grounds that she didn't want to marry a wife, and the imperial concubine also wanted to accept the concubines and concubines first, so she had a loving mother's heart.

    Emperor Jianming felt slightly guilty when he thought of this, if it wasn't for the natural alliance between Lao Liu and Lao San's mother, and he didn't want to give Lao San's faction a bargaining chip, otherwise he could have discussed it with Concubine Shu first when Lao Liu asked for a marriage , and then decide to refer to the marriage.

    Of course, it was impossible for Emperor Jianming to admit and apologize, but his attitude towards Concubine Shu was more gentle, and his tone was a little more tactful.

    "Lao Liu has been a sensible and worry-free child since he was a child. It's rare for me to ask me for something. It's not easy for me to refute him. Don't be too angry, my concubine."

    There are many ways to make it perfect. If the sixth child likes it, he can take it into the mansion and give him the title of side concubine to pamper him. Concubine Shu had this thought in her heart, but she would not be so stupid as to say it out. The last thing this palace needs is someone who speaks against the emperor.

    She only looked at Emperor Jianming with a slight sorrow, with a little anger, and said in a bad mood, "The folks say 'children can't help their mothers', so it is true. He is not satisfied with the concubines he chooses for him. He also put up all kinds of excuses, waited until he liked the one and begged His Majesty to marry him regardless, isn’t this nonsense, and it’s easy to make people laugh when it’s spread.”

    Seeing Concubine Shu's tenderness like water, Emperor Jianming's heart softened, after all, he was the concubine who gave birth to two sons and one daughter for himself. He only thought of her as a child-loving one, and was afraid that the sixth son's concubine's family background would be lowly and would attract criticism, and she would not be able to hold her head up in the royal family.

    "Who doesn't have a youthful spirit? I was young too. It's a pity that my life was difficult and I couldn't do whatever I wanted. But my sons are all the proud sons of heaven. It's just that they make a lot of nonsense. Who dares to talk about it? Don't spare him."

    Concubine Shu said softly, "Your Majesty was trying to hide his strength and bide his time to achieve great things. How can the princes compare with you? They are still children and still need your Majesty's teaching."

    Seeing Emperor Jianming's behavior, Concubine Shu also understood that His Majesty's promise of marriage to the sixth child was definitely not on a whim. Thinking of Concubine Shu's heart, the resentment in her heart dissipated a lot, and she became more cautious as a concubine.

    "I heard that you plan to call that girl into the palace to meet her in a few days. That's fine. After all, she is the future sixth daughter-in-law. If there is anything wrong, I will teach her more."

    The candidates for the daughter-in-law have all been decided, and the mother-in-law has never met anyone, so it really can't be justified.

    Emperor Jianming said again, "That girl is lucky to be liked by Lao Liu. But her family background is a bit low, and I can't ignore Lao Liu's dignity, so let me give more grace."

    He just didn't want to foster the power and ambition of certain forces, and the court and harem were out of balance, but he never disliked his son's thoughts, let alone allow others to despise him.

    Concubine Shu smiled sweetly: "The concubine thanked His Majesty on behalf of the sixth son."
