persuaded Xiao Yishen, this marriage can be regarded as overcoming a big obstacle, but two days later, Xiao Yike came back, although the reaction was not as fierce as Xiao Yishen, but he also objected, or Xiao Yunke persuaded him, and he reluctantly accepted it.

A few days later, Chinese New Year's Eve arrived, which was the first year after the relocation of the capital, and naturally it was very lively, with banquets in the palace, celebrations by courtiers, and a prosperous scene of singing and dancing.

After the year, Tai Shiling finally chose an auspicious day, there were several good days, Xiao Yunke personally selected, and chose a mid-March, which was March 17.

Xiao Yunke's election on this day was also well thought out, when the weather was not cold, my sister and they would be able to come back in time, everything could be ready, not too hasty, very good.

After the year, the imperial court was very busy, Xiao Yishen and Xiao Yike also returned to the north at the beginning of the year to deal with the snow disaster a year ago, and disaster relief and pacification were urgent, and everyone else also had their own things to be busy, because Lou Yichen wanted to go south to inspect the military and government on behalf of the monarch, and most of the affairs of the Privy Council were handed over to Xie Zhiyuan, so Xie Zhiyuan was very busy, and Xiao Yunke was not out of the palace, and he hadn't seen him for a long time.

A year later, the Queen Mother ordered that all departments of the Central Provincial Bureau prepare Xiao Yunke's marriage, so the palace was also very busy, but Xiao Yunke didn't have to do anything.

In mid-February, the Xie family moved into Changping and settled for three days, and the female dependents of the Xie family entered the palace to meet the queen mother and the queen.

The Xie family is a big family, because of the reuse of Xie Zhiyuan and the protection of Xiao Yunke, so as to love the house and Wu, Xiao Yiheng rewarded the Xie family, many people have official positions and titles, correspondingly, there are not a few female dependents who ask An to see today, as many as more than ten.

In addition to Xie Zhiyuan's mother Zhao Lao Taijun, there are also Xie Zhiyuan's two aunts, four sisters-in-law, and a sister and several nieces of Xie Zhiyuan, a total of twelve.

However, I don't know if it was intentional or not, Xie Zhiyuan's two children didn't bring it!

Xiao Yunke should have seen them in a reasonable way, so when the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother met them, she was also present, and several respected women were also there.

However, from beginning to end, Xiao Yunke didn't speak, and he didn't need to speak, he only sat and drank tea silently beside the Queen Mother and Concubine Wen Gui, listening to them, but it still attracted the attention and observation of a group of Xie women's relatives, however, no matter how carefully they observed, they couldn't see why.

Xie is a foreign upstart, so it is reasonable to hold a banquet to invite people from various provinces in Beijing to get to know, so on the second day after entering the palace, the invitations of the Xie family were sent to each prefecture one after another, and they were in duplicate, one is the invitation to the wedding of Xie Zhiyuan and Xiao Yunke next month, and the other is the invitation to the banquet of the Xie family five days later.

The invitation to the Xie family's banquet was naturally sent to Xiao Yunke, and it was sent by Xie Zhiyuan himself.

Xie Zhiyuan has been very busy for more than a month, Lou Yichen is not there, there are too many things in the Privy Council that need him to deal with, and he himself has to control the military and political power in the southwest area, so he is very busy, Xiao Yunke does not work, and he should not take the liberty of asking to see, so the two of them have not seen each other for more than a month.

Now goodbye, it is also very unfamiliar and polite, not at all like an unmarried couple who want to get married.

Flipping through the invitation card and glancing at it, Xiao Yunke smiled slightly, looking at Xie Zhiyuan's eyes were still a little cold and alienated: "Since Yue Guogong personally sent the invitation, the palace will go by itself!"

She didn't plan to have too much contact with Xie's daughters before marriage, so she didn't talk to them yesterday, not because she was putting up a fight, but she wasn't familiar with it, she had always been like this to people she wasn't familiar with, I was used to it, and yesterday was also what the Queen Mother meant, just let her sit quietly, no need to speak.

Xie Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked with a light smile: "Then if the minister doesn't come to invite in person, the princess doesn't plan to go?"

Xiao Yunke's smile was faint and almost none: "Guogong forgot? You and I have a month to get married, according to etiquette, if you and I don't have to meet before this, we shouldn't have met or had too much contact, let alone with your family?"

Xie Zhiyuan smiled: "The minister thinks that the princess is an informal person, so she shouldn't care about these red tapes!"

Xiao Yunke also knew that his reason was a bit far-fetched, so he didn't beat around the bush, and said lightly: "This palace doesn't like to socialize!"

She is used to being lonely, and people who are not familiar with her do not like to be contacted, except for palace banquets, these banquets are rarely attended, unless they are invited by acquaintances, otherwise, she never pays attention to them.

Hearing this, Xie Zhiyuan looked slightly stunned, but he didn't speak.

Xiao Yunke said: "However, since the Xie family is holding a banquet, and you are personally invited to invite it, it is enough to go to the palace, otherwise the Xie family will not look good!"

When Xie Zhiyuan heard this, he waved his hand slightly to thank him: "That minister...... Thank you, princess!"

Xiao Yunke frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and suddenly his face became a little entangled, and said, "No need, you and Ben ...... I'm getting married, so I don't have to be so polite!"

Xie Zhiyuan was slightly surprised when he heard this, and smiled quietly.

On the day of the Xie family's banquet, Xiao Yunke did go to the banquet, and he still attended in full costume, but he did not go alone, but followed Princess Jingyang, Princess Jingyang, Princess Ningguo and Princess Ning, as well as several clan daughters.

With so many people, the people of the Xie family naturally had no way to contact Xiao Yunke, only Xie Zhiyuan's mother Zhao Lao Taijun and Xiao Yunke said a few words, and wanted to say a few more words, but they were blocked by several elders, and Xiao Yunke had no intention of coping, so he silently followed the elders, and then quietly looked at the scenery of Xie Fu Monkey Park.

This mansion was decided by the imperial brother who asked her meaning, but she never came to see it once, and now when she came here, she saw that the decoration and layout of the mansion were more inclined to her preferences, and she knew that this was the queen mother and the queen some time ago ordered people to toss according to her preferences, and her heart was naturally moved.

And because of the relationship between Xiao Yunke and the Xie family, and because they are all valuable women here, almost the guests and daughters in the entire garden are fixed on this side to watch the excitement, in this regard, Xiao Yunke is very disliked, but he did not show it, only slightly twisted his eyebrows, but soon, it was solved.

Xie Zhiyuan sent someone to invite her.

Today's banquet of the Xie family, not only invited the ladies of the various provinces, but also the civil and military officials and the children of the clans, Xie Zhiyuan, as the male host of the Xie family, naturally could not be absent, so he did not go to the Privy Council, but went to the morning court to receive guests at home, the place to entertain the male guests was in the East Garden, that is, the front yard of the Xie family, after hearing that Xiao Yunke was coming, he instructed the people of the Xie family to entertain the guests, so he came here, and sent his men to invite Xiao Yunke to go, Xiao Yunke recognized this person, he saw Xie Zhiyuan when he first saw him, although he was a little puzzled, but he didn't want to stay here, so he simply said to a few elders and followed。

As soon as she left, there was a whispering here......

Xie Zhiyuan actually wanted to take Xiao Yunke to take a good look at Xie Mansion, after all, this is where they will live in the future, so naturally she has to take a look.

While walking, Xie Zhiyuan said: "Many of the decorations here were sent by the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother before, I am a martial artist, I have always been not very concerned about these, and I don't understand, so I let them get it casually, they said that it was arranged according to the princess's preferences, but the princess has not come to see it, since the princess is here today, the minister will take the princess to see, what opinion does the princess have to say, if there is anything to change, I will order someone to repair it as soon as possible!"

Xiao Yunke shook his head slightly: "No, these are already very good, there is no need to rectify, but in fact, you don't need to be so accommodating to me, I don't have too strict requirements for these, and the Xie Mansion is not just mine, if other people have other requirements, they can also be rectified at will, don't let the people of your Xie family think that I am authoritarian and unreasonable!"

Xie Zhiyuan nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll take the princess to see where the princess will live in the future?"

"Yes!"

Xie Zhiyuan then led Xiao Yunke around a few paths and went to Yilan Garden, the largest in the entire mansion.

Because it is a place to prepare for Xiao Yunke to live, Yilan Garden is very large, it is a small and very large courtyard, in addition to the main hall, it is also divided into four courtyards in the southeast, southeast and northwest, with a garden, pavilions and rockery lakes, and the decoration pattern here is completely in accordance with Xiao Yunke's preferences, the whole Yilan Garden is planted with white magnolia flowers, and it is now the season when magnolia flowers are in full bloom.

Xie Zhiyuan has always been a little puzzled, he naturally knows that Xiao Yunke loves magnolia flowers very much, but he doesn't understand why she likes them, and now he sees Xiao Yunke staring at the magnolia flowers in the garden: "The princess likes magnolia very much?"

"I like it!"

"I don't know why?"

Xiao Yunke was silent and didn't answer for a long time, just when Xie Zhiyuan thought she wouldn't answer, she said lightly: "There is no special reason, it's just because this is my mother's favorite flower when she was alive!"

Xie Zhiyuan was suddenly silent.

He knew that Xiao Yunke was born to lose his mother.

Seeing that her expression was a little sad, he thought about it, and was about to say something to comfort, when he heard some movement behind him, as if someone was sneakily peeping, he immediately turned his head to look over, and just saw a corner of his clothes disappearing at the base of the wall, and immediately said sharply: "Who is there, come out!"

Then, the man came out, and when he saw her, Xie Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment.

Xiao Yunke followed his gaze and saw a little girl of seven or eight years old coming out from behind the wall.

Then, looking at them timidly, he cautiously called to Xie Zhiyuan: "Dad...... Daddy......"

As soon as Xiao Yunke heard it, she knew who she was.

Xie Zhiyuan's eldest daughter, Xie Yuyan, who is just eight years old this year.

The little girl who looks quite beautiful looks a little like Xie Zhiyuan.

Xie Zhiyuan didn't seem to expect Xie Yuyan to be here, and after a moment of surprise, his face eased a little.

After glancing at Xiao Yunke, he beckoned to Xie Yuyan: "Yuyan, come here!"

When the little girl heard this, she hesitated to glance at Xiao Yunke before slowly walking over.

Xie Zhiyuan twisted his eyebrows and asked, "Why did you come here?"

Xie Yuyan bit her lip and didn't speak, but looked at Xiao Yunke.

Xiao Yunke was also looking at her, but she didn't see any emotion in her expression, and only looked at her calmly.
