In fact, this resignation was just a gesture, and at the insistence of the new emperor, Hua Yue finally accepted the title of Marquis of Yue.

This marquis is hereditary.

Hua Yue felt that Nanyue should have been the fief of the Su family, and now that he is Xiao Yu's husband, his children will also have the blood of the Su family in the future, and this title should be accepted.

In this way, even if the identity of Xiao Yuyue's royal family Su family can never be corrected, it is a comfort to leave this title to his children.

Of course, Li Da also has benefits.

Not to mention that Hua Yue is a talent, Xiao Yu also has meritorious service in Sheji, Li Daxin Emperor ascended the throne, and the foundation is not stable, he rewarded Hua Yue and his wife one after another, and suddenly won the support of the Hua family, the Lanling Xiao family and the Ling Yiling family. In particular, the Xiao family is still a family that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and has a close relationship with several other scholars.

With the support of these famous families, Li Da's throne still needs to worry about sitting unstable?

If Hua Yue and Xiao Yu didn't have the background of this family, even if they made great contributions, they would not have such a reward.

Similarly, if the two of them did not make much contribution, they would not have been so valued by the new emperor.

Ling Yi was also rewarded, and the new emperor transferred him back to the capital from Yuedi to take over the Forbidden Army of the Son of Heaven.

In addition to showing his favor, on the other hand, it is actually because Hua Yue is now in Yuedi, although he is not in power, but Ling Yi has a heavy army, and the two have always been good, so this Zhennan General not only can't play the role of supervision, if the two collude and rebel, it will be a big deal.

The ministers in the court did not dispute this. First, Hua Yue did have merit and deserved rewards, and it had something to do with the Nanyue royal family; Second, Lingnan is remote. It is also to take over the power of the king of Jingnan County, and it does not offend the interests of the rest of the existing people.

It's almost October now, and soon Xiao Yu will be fifteen years old.

The woman is allowed to marry. Etiquette, called the word. The ceremony of Daqi is also generally held when a woman is fifteen years old.

In this regard, the most anticipated is Hua Yue. Because after the meeting, he can choose an auspicious day to have a round room with Xiao Yu to perform the gift of Zhou Gong. Although the two have slept in the same bed before, the meaning is different.

For women, it means that they can marry when they grow up, which is naturally very important. Although Xiao Yu is already married. But the ceremony cannot be abolished, and now that the birthday is approaching, it is time to open up.

Originally. This ceremony should be presided over by the mother of the girl who received the ceremony, because Xiao Yu was married to Hua Yue, and her mother was deceased, so it was naturally handled by the Hua family.

However, Hua Yue's mother also died early. And Xiao Yu's uncle Xiao Kai and his wife in the capital are also very concerned about this. As a mother's family, he immediately visited Hua's house and took over the matter.

After more than half a year of marriage, Xiao Yu saw her father-in-law for the first time.

Since she was a military general, Xiao Yu originally thought that Hua Mantang must be burly and not angry, but when she saw it, she was very surprised and immediately understood.

Hua Yue was born so tall and handsome, even if she was more like her mother, her father's appearance would probably not be very bad. Hua Mantang looks like a Confucian general, but the frost sideburns and the vicissitudes of life on his face make him look extraordinarily old.

saw Hua Yue and Xiao Yu walking in hand in hand. There were tears in the eyes of Hua Mantang, but they were full of smiles.

Of course, Xiao Yu didn't know that Hua Mantang hadn't seen his son for several years. She bowed respectfully. After taking the tea handed over by the maid, he saluted with both hands, and suddenly didn't know what to call it, so he had to say according to the common name: "Grandpa invites tea." ”

Hua Mantang was so excited that he took the tea with trembling hands, and said repeatedly: "Okay, good." ”

Then let Xiao Yu get up quickly, and then Hua Mantang took a fine Kunlun lotus-patterned jade pendant, stroked it twice, and handed it to Xiao Yu and said: "This is your mother-in-law's beloved thing, and I said that it was passed on to my daughter-in-law, and the county lord took it." I hope that the two of you will be of the same heart, support each other, and love each other. ”

Although Hua Yue was still very cold to her father, she was still a little moved when she saw this.

These words should have been said by the mother.

Xiao Yu blushed slightly, respectfully took the jade pendant and put it away, and then got up.

Hua Yue couldn't help but help Xiao Yu.

Since his wife died and Hua Yue was poisoned, Hua Mantang has never seen Hua Yue's soft expression, in fact, he has only a handful of time with this son.

Because Hua Yue was lost in her early years, and when she came back, she didn't smile anymore, and then she went away to Lingnan. Now that I borrowed Xiao Yu's light, I saw my long-lost son.

And Xiao Yu, as the county lord, is not half arrogant, the most rare thing is that Hua Yue loves her very much, seeing her son like this, Hua Mantang is very satisfied and even grateful to her daughter-in-law here.

Before Hua Yue boldly rejected the current emperor's marriage, I heard that he seemed polite but indifferent and alienated to the ladies of various families, Hua Mantang was really worried that his son was left with a haze because of his eyes and the loss of his mother, and he was unwilling to marry a wife.

Unexpectedly, when I went to Lingnan, I met Xiao Yu, who not only cured his eyes, but also took the initiative to ask the Son of Heaven for marriage.

The more Hua Mantang thought about it, the more satisfied he felt, and he also learned about Xiao Yu and Lu recently, and immediately found Xiao Kai and his wife to discuss the matter.

Hua Yue personally tied the jade pendant to Xiao Yu, and went to her mother's and Su Ying's mausoleum with her to pay respects.

Xiao Yu knelt in front of Su Ying's tomb, tears raining down. She had been waiting for this day for a long time, and turned to Hua Yue and said, "Zichen, can you bring your mother with you when you go back to South Vietnam?" ”

Hua Yue gently wiped away the tears on Xiao Yu's face, nodded and agreed: "I'll go and talk to Your Majesty about this tomorrow." ”

Because Xiao Yu's birthday is on the Xia Yuan Festival, Lu Li also calculated the auspicious day, which happened to be the next day of his birthday.

Together with Xiao Mansion, Huafu solemnly sent invitations to all the prefectures in the capital in advance, and wrote to invite them again three days before the auspicious day, making thorough preparations.

Soon the Empress Dowager and the new emperor also knew about this and immediately asked the Ministry of Rites to draw up a charter. Xiao Yu, as the lord of the county, still faintly compares the princess with the feudal mansion and Suilu, and has only made meritorious contributions, and the etiquette cannot be too childish.

For a while, Xiao Yu didn't know how many famous ladies in Beijing were envious.

Fortunately, the princesses nowadays and the county lords who are really from the royal family are all favored by thousands of people on weekdays, and they are not jealous, but they take it for granted.

The Great Qi royal family really spoiled these royal golden branches and jade leaves.

Xiao Yu's courtesy, Zhengbin is still invited by Princess Hengwang, whose children are full of children, and her life is smooth, and more importantly, she is a well-known and talented lady in Beijing, even the first queen mother has been praised, if it weren't for Xiao Yu's gift of medicine to treat his son's strange illness and have a good fate, and the county lord is knighted, the Hua family is afraid that she will not be moved.

Zhengbin is the person who inserts the flute for Xiao Yu, in addition to the praisers, the priests and the spectators, all of whom are the noble ladies and daughters of various famous families, and what makes Xiao Yu even happier is that since the rebellion in the capital was lifted, Ling Yan and Xiao Pei rushed to the capital day and night, according to the book received a few days ago, they should still be able to arrive before her time.

On the day of the ceremony, not only did the Ministry of Rites bring the royal gifts of the Holy Congratulations, but the Queen Mother and the Empress also prepared a congratulatory ceremony to send people to the Flower Mansion, and almost most of the noble ladies and daughters in Kyoto gathered in the mansion that day.

And Xiao Yu did not disappoint, when she appeared in the hall in a gorgeous costume, and changed the big-sleeved county lord's dress with the three pluses, and knelt on the brocade seat dignifiedly, she was almost as dazzling as a pearl and jade, both clear and gorgeous, so that everyone who had seen her couldn't help but be amazed.

Some people even thought in their hearts, such a charming city complexion, compared to the current Queen Mother, not to mention that she is fifteen years old, maybe not fully grown, what is even more rare is such a calm but noble bearing, it is said that she was just a country girl, but most people don't believe it.

The ladies congratulated each other, and Zhengbin placed the liquor and then took the word to Xiao Yu, and said with a smile: "The etiquette is ready, the moon is auspicious, and the word is announced." The word Kongjia makes virtue more appropriate. The appearance is beautiful, and it will always be protected, but the word can be said to be Jin. ”

Xiao Yu remembered that when her mother Su Ying discussed with her father to name her, she said that she could take this word in the future, but she felt that her eyes were hot, and her eyes were foggy, so she immediately lowered her head and replied respectfully: "Although Jin is not sensitive, dare not come at night." ”

Then he saluted Princess Heng, and the princess returned the salute and was reinstated.

Next, Xiao Yu knelt in front of Xiao Kai and his wife to listen to the training, listened to the teachings and encouragement, and replied: "Although the son is not sensitive, dare not admit it!" ”

After the ceremony, the guests were invited to the banquet in Huafu, and as soon as Xiao Yu returned to the room, Hua Yue hugged her and said with a smile: "Today's lady is really good-looking!" ”

Xiao Yu smiled slightly. (To be continued......)
