Chapter 212: Marriage
Suddenly broke in was Yanshou Hall's Mama Huang, Huang Mama has also served in front of the old lady for many years, and her behavior is also very steady, but she has obviously forgotten how to write the word "steady" at this time, and almost rushed into Yanshou Hall at the fastest speed, and when she knelt in front of the old lady, the high curtain fell back to its original place with a "brush" sound. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was not such a loud voice, but when it was heard in the ears of the old lady and the Qin family, it undoubtedly had a deafening effect.
The old lady only felt that her eyes were dark, if it weren't for the fact that Qin and Gu Qing hadn't noticed that something was wrong and helped her in time, she was afraid that she would collapse on the chair.
But where did the old lady take care of this at this time, and when the dizziness in her brain passed, she immediately pointed to Mama Huang who was kneeling on the ground, and said quickly with shortness of breath: "What did you say?"
Mama Huang has been running to Yanshou Hall non-stop since she received the news, and now she is so panting that she almost can't breathe, but she doesn't dare to delay in the slightest, and repeats her previous words, "Old lady, eldest lady, seven girls, the holy decree, the holy decree has arrived......"
The decree has arrived.
It was only four words, but the old lady and the Qin family and Gu Qingwei all stiffened.
The Gu family is far away in Qinghe, if this sudden holy decree is not for Chu Chengqi's marriage, why should it be?
"The angel has arrived at the post station outside the city, and specially sent someone to inform the masters in the house to bathe and burn incense in preparation for receiving the order......"
Only then did the old lady suddenly come to her senses.
No matter how you say it, the Gu family belongs to the Great Zhou Dynasty, so naturally they can't let the people of the court make mistakes in these etiquette.
Holding Gu Qingwei's hand tightly, the old lady ordered in a low voice: "Hurry up and inform the other masters in the mansion to prepare to receive the order." ”
When Mama Huang retreated, the old lady turned her head to look at Gu Qingwei, and in just a moment, her eyes flashed with water, she gently stroked Gu Qingwei's hand over and over again, and she didn't know whether to comfort Gu Qingwei or herself, "Sister Huan, don't be afraid, no matter what, grandmother and your father and mother will not care about you, as long as you are unwilling, even if you resist the decree and do not ......"
Gu Qingwei didn't let the old lady finish her words.
"Grandmother," she said, "you don't have to worry about me, I'm fine, and the most important thing now is to take the decree first." ”
Compared with the old lady and the Qin family, Gu Qingwei at this time was more like an old woman who had experienced wind and frost.
The old lady and the Qin family intended to comfort a few more words, but as Gu Qingwei said, the most important thing now was to accept the order, so they pressed the words down first and went back to their rooms to prepare.
Since the old lady Gu told the old man from the imperial court, the Gu family has never received the decree, and for a while the whole house has been floating because of this sudden holy decree, after a long time, the masters of each room have finished bathing and changing clothes, Gu Jinyuan ordered someone to put an incense case in the middle hall, and sent someone to the post station to inform, and then led the family to wait.
After another hour or so, with the amazed eyes of the people of Qinghe, the car of the angel from the capital slowly drove to the gate of the Gu family.
At this time, the main gate of the Gu family was wide open, and the high threshold at the door had already been removed, and the car driver drove directly through the gate, and when the carriage stopped, a person stepped down from the carriage.
The man was dressed in a sunflower bra and a black gauze hat decorated with rhino horn belts, and his figure was considered tall, but his face was white and beardless.
First glanced at the situation in the courtyard, the visitor bowed slightly, and then stretched out his hand to the side, and his own retinue put a delicate wooden box carved with a dragon into his hand, and in the box was a roll of silk embroidered with a silver flying dragon.
This is the decree.
Headed by Gu Jinyuan, all the Gu family members fell to the ground.
The next moment, the slightly sharp voice of the eunuch sounded.
"Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Gu's Qingwei, Gong Gong has been effective for a long time, and the ascending order is used to use light to be tight, and the temperament is dignified and prudent. Gentle and courteous, there is the quality of Hui soft, soft and bright, there is the beauty of peace and righteousness, and the quiet is downright. The sum of dynamic harmony and admiration, restraint in courtesy, respect for the festival of the night, and slack in diligence. I inherited the Empress Dowager's mercy, and hereby pointed out that Ning Zhiyuan, the prince of the country, was married, and it was instructive to choose an auspicious day to complete the marriage......"
The holy decree was announced for a long time, and everyone in the Gu family did not make any sound, and they all looked up at the eunuch who passed the decree in shock, as if to confirm whether the holy decree was wrong.
Chu Chengqi sent a letter to Beijing and asked Concubine Liu Xian to help ask for marriage, and the Gu family knew about it.
Because of this incident, there is always a low pressure in the house these days, and even those subordinates, after understanding what kind of person Chu Chengqi, King of Jingjun, is, they all feel sorry for their own seven girls.
Just now, the eunuch mentioned Gu Qingwei when he opened his mouth, and everyone in the Gu family had already realized that this must be the will of the marriage, but because the object of the marriage was Chu Chengqi, not only did everyone in the Gu family not have the slightest joy, but even had a sad look on their faces.
But......
Who would have thought that at the end, when everyone was so sad and angry that they barely jumped up, this matter would come to a peak?
This holy decree is for Gu Qingwei to marry Ning Zhiyuan, the prince of Dingguo, instead of Chu Chengqi, the king of Jingjun?
Everyone thought they had misheard.
But it's normal for one person to hear it wrong, but everyone can't hear it wrong, right?
Therefore, after a moment of silence, everyone in the Gu family relaxed their faces, and then gradually showed their joy.
Especially Gu Jinyuan, after getting the news that the holy decree had arrived, he was actually ready to fight, and even the specific plan had been listed, just waiting for Emperor Yuanchang to act after confirming that Emperor Yuanchang wanted to point Gu Qing to Chu Chengqi.
But now, there is indeed a marriage, but the object of the marriage has actually become Ning Zhiyuan......
Gu Jinyuan's heart was relieved, and then a smile appeared on his face, and after receiving the order, he invited the father-in-law who delivered the decree to enter the side hall to serve tea, and then prepared a few big red envelopes.
When all this was arranged, everyone in the Gu family also smiled.
Compared with Chu Chengqi, the prince of Dingguo is undoubtedly an excellent candidate for a husband.
The Dingguo Mansion is the mainstay of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Ning Zhiyuan is the only son of Ning Jingchang and the eldest princess of Anping, the only son of the Dingguo Gong, and the nephew of Emperor Yuanchang, and the future can be imagined.
Even if you put aside these future statuses, just talk about Ning Zhiyuan, I heard that he showed his talent when he was a teenager, although he seems to have a romantic reputation now, but which teenager is not frivolous, this is naturally nothing, plus Ning Zhiyuan has been rescued by Gu Qingwei before, with this life-saving grace, after the two get married, how could Ning Zhiyuan treat Gu Qingwei badly?
Moreover, the two were married by holy decree, and as long as Gu Qingwei married into the Ning family, his position was naturally stable and unshakable.
When you think about it, isn't this a great marriage?
In the joy of everyone, only Gu Qingwei's face instantly turned pale. (To be continued.) )
