Chapter 204
The marriage between Qi Ming and Meng five girls caused a sensation in the capital.
Not only because of the status and rank of the two families, but also because the marriage was organized with the help of Queen Meng, and Chu Chengyun also gave something, obviously attached great importance to his brother-in-law.
And the Meng family and the Qi family also invited many high-ranking families and officials to watch the ceremony, which was naturally lively.
In addition, after Liu Rong returned to the dynasty before, Chu Chengyun ordered many families to be reorganized. Even though it had nothing to do with others, it was inevitable that there were relatives in the capital. Each family counted carefully, and there were many things like marrying relatives. Seeing Chu Chengyun did it quickly, it was hard to avoid self-danger.
Now this marriage is like timely rain, and it comes at the right time.
After all, happy events can always dissipate a lot of troubles. think that after this time, Chu Chengyun will no longer settle anyone, which makes many families in the capital breathe a sigh of relief and feel a lot of relief.
And many families who were involved but got away with it were secretly grateful that they knew that this was Chu Chengyun to let it go gently, and they naturally asked their families to be cautious in their words and deeds, for fear that they might be caught again.
After the haze gradually dispelled in the capital, what they brought was their heartfelt wishes to Qi Ming and Meng Wu girls. Countless people came to congratulate her. If Qi Ming was the only one, I am afraid she would still be in a hurry. Fortunately, Liu has rich experience. Even though she has never lived in the capital, she has married two daughter-in-law and has seen big scenes. She has always been a good hand at these things. There was also a woman sent by Qi Yun to help, and everything was in good order.
As a second sister-in-law, Ye Jiao also wanted to get up early in the morning to help. When Xiao Hei called for the first time, she sat up, but did not get out of bed, but sat motionless on the bed.
Qi Yun was not awakened by the chicken crow, but was opened his eyes by Ye Jiao's action.
Seeing his wife sitting there in a gauze dress, he hurriedly sat up.
As it is now August, it is no longer the heat of summer, and there will be a trace of chill in the morning and night. Qi Yun pulled the quilt higher and wrapped it around Ye Jiao, then reached out and gently hugged Ye Jiao and patted her on the back.
The little ginseng was obedient, lay down in Qi's bosom and hit Yawn, with a soft and waxy voice: "get up early to clean up, or I'm afraid my mother won't be able to open it alone."
On the other hand, Qi Yun went smoothly on her back and said, "Don't worry, everything that should be prepared is ready, and there is no need to be afraid of any trouble. although the queen could not come to the ceremony, she sent Mammy to keep an eye on it. Today, whether you or your parents, you don't have to worry about other things, just watch Saburo get married."
Ye Jiao hit Yawn again and said, "it's different, Niang said, it always seems to attach importance to it earlier in the past."
Qi Yun said nothing more, but held Ye Jiao in his arms until Ye Jiao finally woke up and took a nap, and after her eyes were clear, she took her clothes, and after they were dressed neatly, they went to wash their faces.
Because today is a big day, both Qi Yun and Ye Jiao have to tidy up in order to look solemn.
After all, whether the men's clothes were easier to wear, Ye Jiao first changed Qi Yun into new clothes specially made for today, and tied the jade belt, especially the purses worn around the waist had rules. After wearing them one by one, Ye Jiao asked Qi Yun to wait outside first, and she took Xiao Su to the back of the screen to change clothes.
Qi Yun wanted to say that he could do it for him. He helped him wear most of Ye Jiao's clothes and had already become a skilled worker, but Xiao Su did move faster than him.
By hard reckoning, he seemed to know better how to take off the clothes that were tightly wrapped inside and outside, and it would be better to stay honest for the time being.
At this time, I heard a voice coming out of the screen: "Lord Xiang, Huanning said he would go, but he didn't know if Yingxiu would go."
Qi Yun was holding a teapot, ready to pour out two cups of tea, one for himself and the other for Ye Jiao to dry.
After hearing the words, Qi Erlang said, "she will come. The invitation post sent two copies to the Shi family, one inviting Mr. and Mrs. Shi, and the other inviting Mrs. Shi. Although Mrs. Shi and Liu Rong are now engaged, but what they should avoid is not to see each other too much for half a month before they get married, and there are not too many things to get in the way."
There is also a saying that Qi Yun did not say bluntly, that is, when Shi remarries a woman like this, he usually marries soon, and his family rarely stays.
After all, for ordinary families, daughters, whether they give up or divorce, eventually have to go back to their mother's home.
For the mother's family, one more person to eat is one more mouthful of right and wrong, especially the brother and sister-in-law, who can't wait to marry their sister to save their own food. If they don't marry for a long time, there will inevitably be people outside gossiping and someone poking in the spine when they go out.
But Shi is different. She is a person on the tip of Shi Tianrui's heart, and Liu Rong has been hired with great fanfare. Queen Meng also rewarded the jade bracelet, which is the most beautiful.
Remarriage is nothing to her. There is no shortage of ladies in the capital who dislike their husband's family and leave home. Most of their children are protected by their mother's family. Who can stop them from going out?
Coupled with Shi's own ability, no one can say anything.
Ye Jiao did not think so much, and there was joy in her voice: "this month is Saburo's marriage, and another two months will be Yingxiu's marriage. There are really a lot of happy events this year."
Although Qi Yun knew that Liu Rong and Shi had made an engagement, he did not know that their wedding date had come so quickly, so he was inevitably surprised: "get married in October?"
"well, Yingxiu said that Lord Liu was worried, so he hastened to marry Yingxiu back as soon as possible, or else he might not be invited back for too long."
As soon as Qi Yun heard this, he knew it was a lie. There were so many high-ranking families in the capital, but not many of them had luck at home, and many people had to wait until their hair turned gray before they could have one.
Now that Chu Chengyun has promised to give Liu Rong his wife's life, it is to reward him for his life to arrest people. This is not a meritorious service that can be casually forgotten.
I think Liu Rong knows this, too, but he is anxious to get married.
Qi Yun thought again that Liu Rong had come to his house to turn over the window and felt that if the Qi family and the Meng family had not got married early this month, was afraid that Liu Rong would have been able to marry Shi this month.
At this time, Ye Jiao came out from behind the screen.
Today, she is a mother-in-law, dressed in festive colors, and in order to avoid the bride's red, she chose a solemn rouge-colored train with a long skirt, showing only the skirt and swaying as she walked.
Even though Ye Jiao's face had not been put on makeup at this time, her black hair was still loose and not pulled up, which still made Qi Yun look at her a little dazed.
In fact, for Qi Yun, he has never cared about the appearance of a woman.
About the young man next to him was at a good age when he adored a beautiful woman, but he was afraid that he would lose his life when he couldn't afford to sleep, so Qi Yun had no idea about the appearance of a woman.
The left and right sides are just two eyes and one mouth, and it makes no difference to him that he is beautiful or unsalty.
On the wedding night, when he picked out Ye Jiao's veil, Qi Yun felt that the woman in front of him was a little too thin, and he didn't think much about it.
But the more he got along with his wife, the more he made Qi Yun feel that his wife was good-looking.
She looks good when she doesn't speak, and she looks good when she speaks. She is dignified and beautiful if she doesn't smile, and she smiles brightly and beautifully.
After reading so many books and reciting so many poems, it seems that all kinds of words describing beauties now have an object. used to think that words such as gifted scholars and beauties were hypocritical, but now know that they were not deep in love at that time. That's why can't understand the beauty of it.
Just like now, when Qi Erlang looked at Ye Jiao, many sentences flashed through his head, and the smile at the corners of his mouth became more and more distinct.
Ye Jiao could see that Qi Yun liked it, so she went up to Qi Yun, smiled at him and asked, "pretty?"
Qi Yun nodded: "pretty."
Ye Jiao reached out and caressed her skirt to make it flatter. "I picked this dress together with my mother," she said. "it looks good."
Qi Yun, on the other hand, pulled her to sit down, handed over the dried tea, and said slowly, "the clothes look good, so do you, and everything looks good in Niang Niang."
As soon as Xiao Su heard this, he silently turned out the door, put down the curtain, stood in the doorway, and did not go far lest he could not hear the master's summons, but he would not go in again, thus preventing the two from talking about each other.
Ye Jiao did not listen to this sentence as affectionate words. Instead, she said with a smile, "what Xianggong said is that I also think I can wear anything, but Xianggong should not only praise me. You are also good-looking. I thought you were good-looking the first time I saw you."
Qi Yun could not help laughing and said, "Niang Niang, you are coaxing me."
Qi Yun still knew what he looked like at the beginning. He was as pale as a ghost, and now he was black and blue. Going out at night could stop the children from crying at night.
But Ye Jiao looked at him with a smile after taking a sip of tea and said, "I didn't coax you. At that time, I was covered with a veil. I could only look at you through the veil. When you said you wanted to move Xiao Hei away, when you paid homage to me, I thought you were the most beautiful one."
Qi Yun nodded, reached out and took Ye Jiao's hand.
But the little ginseng was not as moved as he was, so he stopped Qi Yun and shook him and said, "give me a thrush and get ready earlier, otherwise the children will have to take care of them later when they get up. I'm afraid they won't have time to clean up properly."
Qi Yun then got up and went to the make-up mirror with her.
But during the thrush, Qi Yun, who pressed Luo Zidai, suddenly asked, "Why don't we come back for chicken soup tonight?"
Without thinking about it, Ye Jiao replied, "aren't you going to dinner tonight?"
Qi Yun gave a "uh-huh" and did not mention it again.
Xiao Su breathed a sigh of relief outside the door, only feeling that his Xiao Hei's life still needed to be well protected. Take advantage of the crisp autumn, make a kite again.
Half an hour later, after waiting for several children to pack up, the Qi er family got into the carriage and went to Qi Mingfu.
There is also a way to marry.
If Qi Ming wants to take a friend to Meng's house early, he will probably be stopped and ask him for money or make-up poems, which can be regarded as a threat from his family to the new uncle.
However, these are all point-to-point, and no one will embarrass each other, but embarrass each other, mainly for the sake of the lively atmosphere. Even if Qi Ming cannot do it, it will be the same if some of his friends can help. When the time comes, he will be able to let the new uncle enter the door and say goodbye to his parents with the bride, and then the bride will go out on the sedan chair and the bridegroom will cross the horse, and someone will follow him all the way with the dowry. After a turn in this capital, we will go to Qi's house to formally worship and get married.
When Huanning got married before, she was uneasy, so she asked Ye Jiao to accompany her.
This time Ye Jiao is still a mother-in-law, and all she has to do is to stay with Liu and entertain the guests who come and go.
I thought I was going to come and help, but I found that there wasn't much she needed to do.
Especially when Qi Ming took a group of friends and colleagues to greet the new bride, Qi Yun also followed, while Ye Jiao and her children stayed at Qi Ming House to wait.
Huanning and Shi are with her. Huanning holds Ruyi, and Shi holds Ningbao, both of which are very rare.
Ye Jiao took the orange, peeled it, broke it, fed a piece to Xubao, then looked at Huanning and asked, "where's Anhe?"
Huanning was smiling at this beautiful velvet flower to tease her. After hearing Ye Jiao's words, she smiled and said, "an he is still young, and she is a little introverted. Seeing that so many people are going to cry, I asked someone to send him to the palace to be with the prince as a companion. I'll pick it up later when I get back."
Ye Jiao nodded when she heard Yan, and Shi looked up and looked at Huanning with a smile, thinking that the emperor's family was really different now.
Without saying anything, knew that this new emperor was different from any previous emperor by taking the palace as his brother's and sister-in-law's home and keeping his children at ease.
Otherwise, who dared to leave the children in the palace casually when the former emperor was around?
Apart from protons, I'm afraid no one dares to do such a thing. After all, there are so many concubines in the harem that even the eunuchs of Gong E are involved. Who can guarantee that the little children will come out well once they enter?
But now it is different. The people in the harem of the new emperor are thin, there is only one son after the other, there is none of the concubines next to him, and the queen of Meng is a skillful one. Since the crown prince was close to her, the queen of Meng was full of confidence. In the past, she only purged the harem secretly, but recently she put everything on the open side.
Even if the Korean minister wants to be a relative, he doesn't have any chance.
Over time, the palace unexpectedly became very close to the people. heard that last time Queen Meng found several wives to go to the palace to play with pots, which was a good story for a while.
Shi was almost exhausted by three concubines before, and he naturally had good thoughts for Chu Chengyun, the emperor who was determined to have one wife. He thought that the next time he went to the temple to pray for blessing, he would also help the emperor to ask for peace.
Huanning smiled and said, "I watched some of the children feel a little sleepy. Let them eat something later and let them go to sleep."
Mrs. Mo whispered to one side, "the old lady said she wanted to see the young man and girl."
Ye Jiao nodded and asked him to take her three children to Liu.
When the children left, the atmosphere changed from lively to quiet, and even though there were many ladies and girls around, they would not go up as long as they saw the three of them together.
Seeing that Qi Ming wouldn't be back by 01:30, Shi got up and said, "I'll go and have a look around the back with my sister-in-law."
When Shi left, Ye Jiao focused on peeling oranges and talking to Huanning.
Although the two have a good relationship, they do not always see each other. Each family has its own business, and since both of them have children, it is not easy to find their own time.
Every time we get together, we have to say something good.
Just then, Ye Jiao heard a string of light laughter.
She looked up and saw a familiar face. Ye Jiao couldn't help thinking, and then remembered, "Miss Lu."
Huanning also looked at the past, she used to plan for Ye Pingrong, but also to secure Chu to allow the authority, for the capital's noble daughters are like a few treasures, exchanges are also very close.
But the Lu family was really nothing, and there was no big official in the Privy Council. Huanning didn't care much and asked casually, "Why, Niang Niang knows it?"
Ye Jiao nodded. "I met outside the orchard of Yingxiu before." With a slight pause in her voice, Ye Jiao wondered, "she looks much happier than last time."
Before, even if Miss Lu took Zhu Si back, she didn't feel how happy she was.
Now it looks as bright and lively as the clouds see the sun.
Xiao Su usually doesn't talk casually, but now seeing Ye Jiao confused, coupled with the connection between Zhu Si and Qi Ming, she took a step forward and whispered, "Master, I heard something about her family before."
Ye Jiao nodded and said to her, "go ahead."
Xiao Su stooped slightly and said softly, "I heard that the last time Miss Lu arrested Aunt Zhu and made a scene, Lord Lu shut Aunt Zhu off." Until a few days ago, the Lu family sent Aunt Zhu to the nunnery outside the city, saying that she would be there to pray for the Lu family, but did not say when she could go back. "
As soon as these words came out, Huanning raised his eyebrows slightly.
If you only talk about Miss Lu, she doesn't know, but this girl Zhu Si is a celebrity.
After all, there are not many things about this daughter volunteering to be a concubine.
Now it is said to be sent to pray for blessings, but everyone knows that once they go, they will not be able to come back, and they will not even have the right to remarry. They are just sent out for fear that they will have to spend a lifetime there.
For a moment, Huanning could not figure out what terrible crime Zhu Si had done, which made the Lv family so disgusted.
But Xiao Su, who knows the causes and consequences, understands the Lu family's mind very well.
The Lv family was afraid that the Lv family did not know what Miss Zhu Si had made in front of the Qi Mingmen gate, but the Lv family had a feud with Zhu Si. After a struggle outside the Shi orchard, Meng Wu girl was afraid that she had given the Lv family some wind. Only then did the Lv family make up their mind to eradicate this danger.
No matter how much Lord Lu likes this young concubine room, Zhu Si is really confused, and a person with a unclear head is a hidden danger in this capital, and he will cause trouble and harm the whole family at any time.
And Zhu four tricks still provoked the Qi family and the Meng family, how can this not make the Lv family afraid?
You know, women who like to find things are not strict. If she really shakes out the things that pestered Qi Ming in the past, the Lu family will definitely follow and eat melons.
Now that she is clean and sent away, Miss Lu is naturally happy, and Xiao Su says it now in order to calm her master's heart.
However, Ye Jiao could not remember Zhu Si clearly long ago, and she would have been worried before, but since she met Meng Wu girl, she had never believed that Zhu Si could make any waves.
Meng Wu girl is smart and can handle everything properly. Naturally, Ye Jiao will not worry about her in vain.
At this time, only listened to it as a story, and just heard it.
It's just that everyone has his own way, and everything is done by himself.
About an hour later, Qi Ming still did not come back, nor did Shi Shi. Ye Jiao was a little worried.
She asked someone to go to the door to inquire about the situation, but she pulled up Huanning and was ready to take a look around the back.
Today, of course, the front yard is particularly lively and busy for this marriage, even if it is not yet an auspicious time, but there are many guests and more women, and the servants who come and go seem to be walking much faster than usual.
However, the backyard is clean, not many people, only occasionally people come and go back and forth, about also stay in front for a long time to get some air at the back.
Ye Jiao went for a walk with Huanning while looking for someone, but it was relaxing.
At this time, saw Shi and Zheng standing in the same place from a distance.
Shi was dressed in a water-colored skirt, which was not easy to recognize in the shade, but what Zheng was wearing today was apricot, which was particularly conspicuous, and Ye Jiao saw it at a glance.
Now that she had met someone, Ye Jiao thought of asking them to go back together, but she had just approached, and before she opened her mouth, she heard a slightly low female voice: "it's just remarrying a girl, and I don't know what she's looking like."
"as a matter of fact, no one in the capital knows that Liu Rong only wanted to marry his sister because he wanted to hook up with Lord Shi. It happens that some people don't know what they are. Look at Shi's smug look today. "
"it's just a moment of complacency. Where is the army? It is very difficult to be promoted, and it is difficult to protect his life, so how does Liu Rong know in the future? This time it was just his luck, and if it hadn't been too presumptuous. "
"all right, sister Mo said no more, I was still very scared."
Warnington paused with some contemplation.
Ordinary group training is not a big official rank, but the one who was killed on the spot by Liu Rong on the charge of treason not long ago was a group training envoy, wasn't it?
When I think of this, Huanning looks a little complicated. I don't know if there are still people talking about it now, or it's ridiculous that someone will confess on his own.
If it should be rotten in stomach, have to spit it out because it is so irritating and funny, probably because really don't know that disaster comes out of mouth.
The four women present married themselves to the town general. Zheng's husband, Shi Tianrui, is a direct bachelor of the Privy Council, and Shi is Liu Rong's future wife. All of them are important people in the military department. It is not clear who knows how to pick a place for a while.
These words were heard in Ye Jiao's ear, where she didn't think about it, but she still frowned.
In fact, some women like to say sour words behind their backs. Ye Jiao knows that she can't do these things herself, but she can't ask others to speak their mind.
It's just that these words sound particularly harsh, and Ye Jiao doesn't want to go on quietly, even if she doesn't mean to hear them now.
In her heart, Yingxiu has always been quiet, no matter what she thinks, she won't say it directly. Even if she tore her face with Wen Jia at the beginning, she didn't see Shi's anger. Ye Jiao thought that Shi would put up with it this time. Ye Jiao wanted to speak for her.
After all, I am half the master today, so when I hear about it, I have to take care of it.
But before Ye Jiao opened her mouth, Shi had loosened his hand and took a few steps forward, directly poking away the orchid bushes in front of him.
When usually hear someone say sour words behind his back, Shi will probably not take it seriously, but this time it is different. It has something to do with the group practice, that is, it has something to do with the families recently liquidated by the emperor, and he must remember to hate Ronglang. At the thought of this, Shi is not going to leave any more mercy.
To behave in the world is to be forgiving and forgiving, but if it is possible to threaten those who are close to you, who will forgive and who will be stupid.
The orchid in front of Shi is not precious, it is better than a lush onion, and it can be used as a shelter even if it grows in one place.
At this moment, the two sides met at once.
The two women, who had been chewing happily, looked at it in surprise, and looked a little ugly when they saw several people opposite.
If only Shi was there, they could still fool the past, but now when Huanning was there, they had to bow their heads.
So the two immediately bowed down and saluted, "her Royal Highness the eldest princess."
Zheng noticed that someone was coming behind her. After seeing Ye Jiao and Huanning, she nodded, but her face was still a little ugly.
Shi did not look back, just looked at them, his eyes turned from this person's face to that person's face, and said slowly, "are you two girls from Dr. Youwu's family?"
The two men did not expect that Shi recognized them at a glance, looking a little embarrassed, but Ye Jiao did not find it strange. Shi was famous for his ability to recognize people. as long as he had seen it once, he could know that there was nothing in the capital that she did not know.
Shi did not need them to nod, but said directly: "since you despise the ranks of the army, I will help you tell my brother and Ronglang that they will not wronge your family." The voice was slightly paused, and Shi's voice was gentle. "after all, if Rong Lang hadn't come back with a good fate, I'm afraid it would be your family who would be glorious now."
As soon as these words came out, their faces changed.
The author has something to say: Chu Chengyun: every day someone asks for peace for me.
Blackie:. (covering his tail) mm-hmm.
