The decree came down the next day, and Mei Ru was still stunned when she received it.
She didn't understand it after thinking about it all night last night, Fu Zheng obviously said that he would not marry her, and he also knew her intentions, why did he still ask for this will? Mei Ru knows him, Fu Zheng is not such a person who goes back on his word...... Mei Ru sat there in a daze, pretending to be worried, while the old lady and Qiao Shi next to her were discussing her marriage.
Mrs. Du said: "The wedding date is set in May, which is too tight. ”
"yes." Qiao Shi couldn't help frowning.
Meifu only held the marriage of Mei Qian and Meng An in March, and Mei Ru's marriage will be followed in May, and the dowry must be prepared in such a short time, I am really afraid that I will not be able to be busy. But the holy decree was so decided, and Meifu could only obey the decree.
Qiao didn't dare to delay, so he was busy arranging, and the old lady pulled Mei Ru to talk beside her.
Looking at Mei Ru carefully, Du Shi smiled with relief: "It's really a good blessing to follow the way." ”
Mei Ru's head was still groggy, and when she thought of still marrying Fu Zheng in this life, she felt like she was stuck with something. Mei Ru really couldn't laugh, and she was uncomfortably panicked.
Coming out of Chunxi Hall, Mei Ru went to Qiao's courtyard, and she didn't go back to cross the courtyard by herself. Qiao Shi could see at a glance that she had something on her mind, so she asked, "What's wrong with Followby?" ”
Mei Ru rubbed for a while before whispering: "Mother, can you get out of the marriage?" ”
"What nonsense?!" Qiao Shi was frightened by this, and bluffed Mei Ru with his eyes and said, "Can this marriage be withdrawn casually?" Do you want to tell the emperor to go, or to your highness? ”
Cautiously looking at her mother, Mei Ru took the opportunity to answer: "What if I really tell the emperor?" ”
Hearing this group of childish words, Qiao's really couldn't cry or laugh, she glared at Mei Ru and said, "What's wrong with His Royal Highness King Yan?" ”
"What's so good about him?" Mei Ru's eyebrows furrowed even tighter.
Qiao Shi poked her head fiercely: "You girl is in the midst of happiness and doesn't know the blessings, and she is petty." He persuaded bitterly: "This marriage is good, and it is the purpose of His Royal Highness to personally invite you, and he attaches great importance to you." ”
Mei Ru was silent. In the previous life, it was not Fu Zheng who asked for marriage, but in the end? Those painful and depressing past events pressed down on her heart, and Mei Ru sighed deeply.
Seeing that her daughter was still sullen and unhappy, Qiao Shi quietly revealed her tone and said: "Follow the rules, listen to your father, yesterday His Royal Highness King Yan asked to marry, and it can be regarded as speaking for your father and brother in front of the emperor, don't be petty." ”
"Daddy and brother going to face the saint?" Mei Ru didn't know about this yet, and she couldn't help but be surprised at this time.
Thinking of the terrible prince, Qiao sighed: "When your brother returns home, you can ask him." ”
Mei Ru was confused. When Mei Xiang came back this day, she really asked about it. Mei Xiang told me what happened in the palace yesterday.
It turned out that Mei Xiang and Mei Yin entered the palace yesterday to face the saint, planning to take advantage of Mrs. He's east wind to sue the prince. After the clinker entered the palace, I learned that Mrs. He only entered the palace to run around for Zhou Suqing's marriage, and did not sue the prince. And for the sake of Zhou Suqing, Mrs. He had to pamper the prince.
Emperor Yanchang was happy, but he didn't expect a sudden marriage of Mei Ru. Emperor Yanchang immediately turned cold. The prince and the Mei Mansion are-for-tat, each holding on to their own words, and they can't tell why. Therefore, Emperor Yanchang stirred up a thin mud and said a few words to the prince, but he also had some slight words about Meifu, and his words were very unhappy.
Mei Yin and Mei Xiang were embarrassed at the time, and when they came out of the south study, they happened to meet Fu Zheng.
Fu Zheng had already heard it outside at that time, and seeing that the father and son were depressed, he sighed and asked, "Mei Shilang, has the marriage of the third girl been settled?" ”
Mei Yin was stunned for a moment, and arched his hand: "Not yet." ”
……
Speaking of this, Mei Xiang said to Mei Ru: "Follow the rules, His Royal Highness King Yan asked to marry you, which can be regarded as maintaining face for Mei Mansion in front of the emperor, don't be petty, and don't talk nonsense." ”
Mei Ru was stunned when she heard this.
She was originally curious about why Fu Zheng suddenly rebelled and wanted to marry her, but she didn't expect that it would also involve matters in the palace.
With a deep sigh, Mei Ru could only admit this family business.
……
Mei Xiang has been running around for things these days, and only then did he have time to go to Dong's place to take a look.
The Hu family has a room of women left, and the Dong family wants to do some business to maintain the family's livelihood. It's been cleaning up in the shop these days. Mei Xiang didn't dare to get too close, he stood far away and glanced inside. Dong was cleaning up with Hesui at that time, and planned to go home.
Yaoyao looked at Mei Xiang, Dong bowed slightly, and then said, "Uncle Mei, I heard that the marriage of the third girl is decided?" ”
It's been the first time in so many days that this man has spoken to him...... Mei Xiang was slightly stunned, "um", and was afraid that she wouldn't hear it, so she nodded desperately.
Dong still lowered his eyes and said, "Uncle Lao Mei congratulated me on my behalf." Because of Mei Xiang, Mei Ru was already embarrassed to come to see her again, and the Dong family could only bother Mei Xiang to say a word at this time.
Mei Xiang couldn't hide her joy, smiled, and said, "Okay, I've written it down." ”
