Chapter 166: Dowry

85_85256The maid heard their footsteps and hurried out to greet them.

Seeing that it was the prince, he couldn't hide the excitement on his face and said, "The old man suddenly came to eat breakfast with a spoon this morning. ”

"Really? That's good! I'm here to pick her up and take her to the Prince's Mansion. Chu Zican said.

The palace maid suddenly showed a bright smile like the morning glow and said, "It's so good! But she went to bed after eating in the morning, and she wouldn't wake up yet. ”

"Can you sleep like this? Then let's wait outside for a while and let her sleep a little longer. Chu Zican said with a smile.

So the group sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard and waited.

Today, Chu Zican brought new clothes, new shoes and socks and new jewelry to his mother, and wanted to dress her up, so he happily took her back to the house.

The group waited for about three quarters of an hour and still didn't see any movement inside, Chu Zican couldn't wait a little longer, so he said to the palace maid, "Go and wake her up." ”

Chu Zican thought to himself that after waking her up, he might have to coax her to change clothes and freshen up, and he would definitely get noon after a busy time. And Hua Yueyu already has a stomachache this morning, and I'm afraid I'm going to give birth today, so he doesn't want to delay on either side.

After waiting for a while, he didn't see the palace maid come out, so Chu Zican asked inside, "Is she awake?" ”

But seeing that the palace maid rushed out with a panicked face and said, "Prince, she ...... She... It didn't seem to work, and the little one pushed her for a while but didn't see a response. ”

Chu Zican only felt a bang in his brain, and as soon as he pushed her away, he ran inside.

But seeing Shi Wenci's lips tightly closed, his expression was serene, as if he was asleep.

Chu Zican hurriedly stretched out his hand to probe her breath, and suddenly felt five thunders thunder at the top - where is there still breath? Chu Zican only felt that her feet were weak for a while, and the whole person knelt in front of her couch.

……………

Soon, the news of Shi Wenci's death spread throughout the palace.

Since she is a person who has been beaten into the cold palace. Loneliness to death is a foreseeable outcome, so it has not caused a big sensation.

But Emperor Guangzhao still thanked her for giving birth to a son for herself and the love of being by his side for more than 20 years, so he ordered her to be buried and nicknamed: Concubine Ci.

It stands to reason that Empress Gina, who heard this, should be happy, but she didn't, she thought of what she had now. I already feel that God treats me well. Therefore, he is always full of sympathy for the plight of others, even Shi Wenci, who has hurt himself.

She shed a handful of tears for Shi Wenci.

The day after Shi Wenci's death, Hua Yueyu gave birth to a son. named Chu Lingxuan, if Chu Zican can become the future monarch, this child will be the future prince, so this child's identity has been precious since birth. He was especially cherished by everyone as soon as he was born.

I lost my mother the day before, and I gave birth to a child today. Grief and joy were mixed, Chu Zican seemed to mature overnight, and he was unprecedentedly calm and organized in dealing with related matters, which made Emperor Guangzhao secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Chu Zihou didn't know if his wedding would be affected by Shi Wenci's death. So he hurriedly asked Emperor Guangzhao privately, and Emperor Guangzhao said calmly: "She is not your biological mother, and she is a person who has been beaten into the cold palace and has no identity." Naturally, it will not affect your marriage, and you can get married as originally planned. ”

Chu Zihou was overjoyed when he heard this. Hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, and asked Emperor Guangzhao for instructions: "Erchen wants to add some dowry and dowry to Guang'an Hou." ”

Emperor Guangzhao smiled and waved his hand: "The dowry and dowry I arranged for her are already the most solemn in the hundreds of years in the Xi Kingdom. ”

"Erchen still wants to add some to express his heart." Chu Zihou insisted, in his heart, being able to meet and fall in love with Shen Xizhen was like a gift from God, he was always full of gratitude for this gift from God, and she only had a short chance to get along with him for seventeen years, and he wanted to give her the best one.

"Okay, then make a list of the dowry and dowry you want to increase and show me." Emperor Guangzhao said.

"Good!"

…………

After learning the news that Chu Zihou was going to add a dowry and dowry to the Shen family, Empress Gina also said that she would add some to Xizhen, so that the dowry and dowry received by the Shen family could be called the most grand in the history of the Xi Kingdom.

"It's really the first time that our royal family has given such a heavy dowry to marry a daughter-in-law, hahaha!" Emperor Guangzhao laughed a little emotionally, but his mood was excellent, because he also knew very well that Shen Xizhen could afford this.

But with a smile and a smile, he immediately thought of the fact that Chu Ziyao would also marry Jiang Weibai after the New Year. The dowry they gave to the Jiang family was less than one-third of the Shen family's, and Emperor Guangzhao was worried that Chu Ziyao and Jiang Weibai's hearts would not be very happy, so he added more than a dozen items for them.

Sure enough, Jiang Weibai's mother was a little indignant after learning the amount of dowry that the Shen family received, and she didn't dare to say it in front of Jiang Weibai, so she had to complain to her husband Uncle Jiang Ping: "You see, sure enough, the treatment of the emperor's favor is different, and the pieces of Miss Shen's family are worth a lot, and our family's Wei'er is less than a fraction of the others." ”

Uncle Jiang Ping immediately stopped and said, "Come on, are you purely a woman's opinion?" You don't want to think about the contribution that Miss Shen has made to Xiguo? Is that what our family can compare? The emperor, the queen, and the king of Qingping are all extremely smart people, do you think they will increase the dowry for no reason? Don't you think what Miss Shen did was worth it? ”

Mrs. Jiang was so choked by the words that she had nothing to say, so she had to swallow back the resentment in her belly, and said with a forced smile: "It's the same." ”

Who didn't know that the words of the two were heard by Jiang Weibai, who happened to pass by outside their house, Jiang Weibai suddenly felt that something hurt as if his heart was pierced, and he hurriedly left.

Anyone will have the psychology of comparison, not to mention that they are also people who want to marry into the royal family, Jiang Weibai knows that he should not compare these with Shen Xizhen, because he really does not have as much as Shen Xizhen's contribution to Xi Kingdom, but although he understands the truth, he still unconsciously compares in his heart, so he didn't sleep well that night, and he dreamed of some sad things all night, and even woke up to find that his eyes were red and swollen - it turned out that he was crying in a dream.

While secretly scolding himself for being so stingy, he couldn't help but feel sentimental, and finally forgot to bring the music sheet when he went out to the palace to go to class, and even found out when he went to the Xiyi Museum, but it was too late to rush back to get it, so he hurriedly asked Liu Qingniang to borrow it from the library, and it was delayed for more than half an hour when he came and went.

But I managed to cope with it.

After class, she just walked out of the door of the Xiyi Hall with the qin in her arms when she saw Chu Ziyao walking towards her.

He held a thick cloak in his hand, which he draped over her, and said softly, "I passed by this morning, and when I saw that you were not wearing any thick clothes on this cold day, I really wanted to scold you." I asked someone to buy this cloak and give it to you. ”

"Thank you, Third Prince!"

"You said that you shouldn't be so polite when it's just the two of us, what should you call me?" Chu Ziyao looked at her warmly and asked.

"Ziyao." Jiang Weibai said shyly.

"That's right, then you can go back." Chu Ziyao quickly kissed her on the face.

Jiang Weibai lowered his head and continued to walk forward.

but my heart was as sweet as honey.

It was enough to have his love, she said to herself, and she was instantly relieved about the dowry. (To be continued).
