Mingzong Li Chengyun agreed to the reward, but he didn't mention anything about the reward, so he sent Zhou Ming away.

Zhou Ming only felt that this trip to the palace was inexplicable, he was so busy, what were he doing to enter the palace by himself? Later, I realized that it was the Northern Barbarian Mission that was coming, and Mingzong threw this errand to him.

He was full of reluctance, but for the sake of Xiuxiu's reward, he had to reluctantly leave Beijing to welcome the Northern Barbarian Mission.

When he was not in Beijing, Empress Dowager Xie and Empress Xie summoned Yuxiu in the palace.

Soon after Mingzong ascended the throne, the Empress Dowager Wen died of illness, and Empress Xie became the Empress Dowager's mother, and Xie Hualou, the daughter of the Xie family who had been bedridden, was actually cured without medicine. So, Mingzong complied with the mandate of heaven and married Xie Hualou as the queen.

The people say that Xie Hualou is really lucky, and she can still be a queen at her age, after all, she is nearly twenty years old.

Those who know all feel that Mingzong is really affectionate, righteous and trustworthy.

A few days later, a holy decree came from the palace, sealing Yan Yuxiu as the goddess of protecting the country, and the county lord gave 800 acres of fertile land in the Yanshan area as a fiefdom.

And with the holy decree came, there was also the makeup of Empress Dowager Xie and Empress Xie.

Zhou Ming took the Beiban delegation to Beijing, and when he heard the news, he happily ran to Yan's house overnight to express his merits. It's a pity that even Yuxiu's voice was not heard.

As soon as he entered the gate, Yan Qingjiang, the uncle of the Yan family, looked at him with fierce eyes, and he was still polite when he saw him in Dongping Village. Now, Yan Qingjiang's handsome face, the expression has completely changed, quite a sense of hatred for a girl in my family who has just grown up and a bad boy has come, glared at him and said, "What are you doing here?" ”

Jiu Niang pulled him with a smile and greeted him politely, "Zhou Shizi is here." ”

Yudong, Yan Jinpeng and the others all sat together, Zhou Ming felt that if he wanted to see Yuxiu, he would be beaten out by them, and squeaked and whined for a long time, "That, I want to say, I'll make up my mind in a few days." ”

"You asked yesterday." Yan Qingjiang is the least face-saving.

"Huh? Have you asked about the decided? Then I'll go back and prepare first. Zhou Ming got up, went out in a gloomy manner, met Qian Chang at the gate, dragged Qian Chang past him and said, "You bring me a message to your eldest lady, that reward is what I mentioned to the saint!" ”

Qian Chang nodded again and again, Zhong Youxing on the side was stunned, didn't he let him pass the word yesterday?

Yuxiu in the inner courtyard heard about Zhou Ming's things, and laughed at her, and Han's family, Yushu and Yan Hui all looked at her with mockery.

Zhou Shizi lived like a year, and finally survived to welcome his relatives.

On the day of welcoming the family, Li Chengyun, who regarded himself as a matchmaker, asked Qintian to supervise the election.

Early in the morning, with the help of Han and Jiuniang, Yuxiu got up to freshen up and dress up, and Empress Dowager Xie sent a female official in the palace to make Yuxiu a blessing.

Yuliang invited his wife from Guozijian to help with some affairs.

They were still freshening up, and the news outside the door was that the groom's official was about to come to the door.

"So fast? Isn't the auspicious time the time of the season? ”

"Zhou Shizi said that when they arrived at the gate of their home, it happened to be the time of arrival, and it would not be wrong." The groom has already calculated, and the auspicious time is not wasted at all.

On the side of the Chengwang Mansion, the prince and the princess looked at their son with a happy face, and they went to greet their relatives early in the morning.

He was dressed in a red brocade robe, riding a black horse, and behind him was a sedan chair and gongs and drums. He brought Xie Huiling and Wu Jifang to be the prime ministers, and he looked relieved. With Xie Huiling here, what kind of obstruction poems and make-up poems are going to be made-up, he is not afraid that the Yan family has Yuliang, the eccentric prodigy in the capital.

As for Wu Jifang, he felt that Wu Jifang was the senior brother of the Yan family brothers, and the future brother-in-law, so he had to give some face.

Finally, the sedan chair arrived at the gate of Yan's house, and sure enough, it happened to be the hour, and a stack of voices urged the bride to get on the sedan chair.

Yuxiu saw that Quanfu people picked up the red hijab, and then she had the sadness of marrying.

In her previous life, she was not blessed to wear a red wedding dress, but in this life, she has attained perfection.

Yudong and Yuliang waited at the door of the room, as usual, asking the brothers to carry the bride and send the sedan chair.

Yuxiu covered her head and walked to the door of the room, Yudong squatted down and picked up her sister and slowly walked out of the door.

Yuliang followed to the side, muttering all the way, "Eldest sister, when you arrive at Chengwang's Mansion, you still have to go home often." ”

"Eldest sister, if Zhou Shizi treats you badly, you can come back and tell us."

"I discussed with my brother that the family should keep this house for the eldest sister, and the second sister too. Come back whenever you want to come home......"

Yudong listened to him more and more disagreeable, and shouted, "Shut up, what are you talking nonsense", how can you talk about going back to your parents' house to live when you get married?

Yuliang shut up aggrievedly, and followed to the side silently.

Yuxiu couldn't see his expression, but she could guess that the corners of her mouth must be drooping, and she whispered, "Brother, little four, if there is anything in the future, you still have to tell me." Also, the affairs of the family, Shu'er has been able to take care of it in the past few years, and my brother has to marry a sister-in-law as soon as possible, otherwise there is no woman in the house to take care of the house, and it is not like that. Little four, you are young now, you have to study hard. Last time you said you were going to travel, I'll talk to your brother-in-law about it and see if I can send some reliable people with you......"

"Before the person left the gate, he said that he was going to be a brother-in-law." Yuliang muttered even more dissatisfied.

Yuxiu found out that she actually said it well, but fortunately the red hijab was covered, and she couldn't see her blushing face, and she was annoyed and angry, and she didn't want to ask anything more, so she looked up and gave Yuliang a look.

Yuliang was patted for a moment, but he grinned, "Eldest sister, you have to beat your brother-in-law like this when you go back, and make rules for him!" ”

Yudong reluctantly walked a few steps quickly, for fear that Yuliang's words would be heard.

From Yuxiu's room to the door, with Yudong's foot strength, it is only a matter of two incense sticks. This time, Yudong walked slowly, stepped firmly step by step, and stepped out of the door, Xiuxiu was no longer the daughter of the Yan family, but the wife of the Zhou family. He only felt that his eldest sister was still very young, only fifteen years old, but she was about to get married.

There was joy along the way, and there were families who followed and escorted them from afar.

No matter how slow Yudong walked, he still arrived at the gate.

"The bride is out! Hurry, hurry! Played! The Xi Po at the door shouted loudly.

The two brothers of the Yan family have been sending Yuxiu to the sedan chair, and Xi Po lifted the sedan chair curtain, but Yudong did not put it down immediately, looking at Zhou Ming with a strained face.

Zhou Ming looked at the face of his brother-in-law and brother-in-law, took the joy on his face by two points, and nodded solemnly.

The promise between the men was made.

"Xiuxiu, it's time to get on the sedan chair." Yudong said a word, and his voice choked up inexplicably.

Yuxiu sat in the sedan chair, the sedan curtain was lowered, and Yuliang looked up at Zhou Ming, "Brother-in-law, you have to take good care of my eldest sister!" ”

Zhou Ming nodded again.

Xi Po shouted "get up the sedan chair" in a stack, and inside the gate of Yan's house, everyone watched the sedan chair lift up and leave in the noisy drum music, leaving behind the sound of artillery all the way.
