Chapter 438: Decree to force the block
Before Ren Yaochi found out the details of the person who wanted to buy the Ren family's house, that is, the day after Ren Yaoqi returned from the Hot Spring Villa, a big news came back to Yanbei.
The princess of Yanbei, Zhao, gave birth to a son in the imperial palace in Kyoto, and the deceased son had a queen.
This was originally a good news that could make the people of Yanbei rejoice, and it was a happy event for any ordinary family, but this good thing came to the head of the Yanbei Palace, but at this time, it made the already treacherous situation even more complicated.
First of all, the ownership of this little son is a question, is he going to be raised under the nose of the Li family in Kyoto like his father, or will he be sent back to Yanbei to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors? And then who will the position of the prince of Yanbei Wangfu, which has been vacant since the death of the prince, end up in the end? If there is no little son, Yanbei Wangfu has no choice but to let Xiao Jingxi, the second son of Xiao, succeed the prince, but now that there is a little son, is the sick second son Xiao still the best choice for Yanbei Palace? What will be the attitude of the imperial court?
No matter how people outside guessed, Yanbei Wangfu still showed a happy attitude towards this newly-born child. The princess asked people to prepare ten cars for the princess and the newly-born child, waiting for the adults who came to Yanbei to bring them together when they returned to Beijing.
The queen mother selected six outstanding talents from several ladies who came to Yanbei to participate in the golden banquet and gave them to Yanbei's sons or young talents with outstanding talents.
The Yun family, the Su family, and the Meng family all received the marriage order, Zhao Yingqiu was given to Yun Wenting, the eldest son of the Yun family, Miss Li, who was good at painting, one of the leaders of the golden banquet, was given a marriage to Su Yunchen, the second young master of the Su family, Miss Zhou, who was good at calligraphy, was married to the third young master of the Meng family, and even Qiu Yun, the third young master of the Qiu family, also pointed out Miss Lu, who was good at the piano.
The queen mother's marriage was originally a glorious affair, but this is Yanbei, not Kyoto, even if these daughters from afar are prominent in Yanbei, what benefits can they bring to their husbands' families? The families of Yanbei are not eating at the face of the Li family's court. Therefore, the Yanbei families who received the Empress Dowager's decree were reluctant, and they only hated why they didn't marry their children earlier.
And the most headache among these families who have received the will is the Yun family. Everyone knows that the Yun family wants to marry the county lord to the eldest young master of the Yun family. Even if the eldest young master of the Yun family can't marry the county lord, there are more girls in Yanbei who want to marry Yun Wenting, where will it be the turn to get this Zhao Yingqiu who came out halfway?
After the Yun family sent away the person who announced the decree, the old lady Yun casually slapped the decree on the table.
"Father, how is this to be? How could Wen Ting marry this Miss Zhao? I knew that Lu Dao should have decided the family affairs for Wen Ting first, and it was better to marry anyone than to marry this one. Master Yun frowned.
Old lady Yun said coldly: "The old prince didn't resist the decree at the beginning, but our Yun family can resist the decree?" ”
Master Yun paused: "You also said that it was at the beginning, and now the court also wants to give Xiao Ergongzi a marriage, what is the result?" ”
Old Lady Yun didn't speak.
Old Lady Yun, who had never spoken, said: "Whether it is to resist the decree or obey the decree is not something that the Yun family can say, and it is not only our Yun family who is anxious now." Let's talk about it tomorrow after I go to Yanbei Palace, and meet the princess. ”
The elders of the Yun family were discussing the matter of this marriage decree. Yun Wenting, the eldest son of the Yun family, stood aside and didn't say a word, he lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was thinking about a problem and seemed to be stunned, and he sat for a long time, and he didn't even move his posture at all.
At night, Yun Wenting still went to Yun Wenfang's courtyard and stared at the little maid to change his dressing.
Yun Wenfang looked at Yun Wenting on his stomach for a while, and asked, "I heard that the Queen Mother gave you a marriage?" ”
Yun Wenting lowered his head and gave Yun Wenfang a serious examination of the wound on his back, but did not speak.
"Will you marry?"
"The wound is cracked again, you remember to slow down in the future, and tell the little guy what to do. Don't do it yourself. ”
"Will you marry Miss Zhao?"
"It's not too early, I'll go first, and I'll come to see you tomorrow."
Yun Wenfang watched coldly as Yun Wenting turned around and left his room, and before leaving, he remembered to help him gently close the door.
Day 2. The housewives of several major families coincidentally went to Yanbei Wangfu to see the princess. There is only one purpose, to ask if you can refuse this family business.
The princess also has a headache, if she doesn't accept it, the queen mother is not easy to explain, after all, King Yanbei is only a vassal king in name. It is also necessary to respect the Li family as the king, and the refusal of several major families to marry at the same time is undoubtedly a slap in the face of the queen mother and the imperial court. But if you accept it, several great families are unwilling, and Yanbei Wangfu also seems to be very passive.
The princess has always felt that Empress Dowager Yan does not have any great wisdom. The only merit is probably that he has a good background and good luck. But now the Queen Mother's seemingly nonsense trick really stumped many people.
However, the princess still needs to appease people's hearts at this time, so she patiently comforted these housewives, and said with a smile: "Isn't it just a family business?" Look what you've become in a hurry. I see that those young ladies are very good, even if they marry into the door, they will not lose. ”
The head of the Meng family's house mother is the youngest and the most uncontrollable: "People are indeed good, and they don't have to pick their appearance and talent, but their background is not a little bit worse." I heard that although these ladies are said to be the daughters of the family on the surface, in fact, most of them are concubines, and some of them are still raised by girls, but they were temporarily raised in the name of a concubine in the main room before coming to Yanbei. To put it mildly, the Queen Mother is really not particular about what she does! Coming from the capital is amazing? This kind of born girl is only a concubine in a family like ours! ”
It's no wonder that Mrs. Meng Guo is in a hurry, Third Young Master Meng is her favorite young son, who is regarded as a life-like existence on weekdays, and she doesn't dare to let him suffer the slightest grievance since she was a child. Seeing that the third young master Meng had reached the marriageable age, Mrs. Meng couldn't wait to screen the ladies in Yanbei one by one, so that she could choose a girl for her youngest son to marry home.
But now the Queen Mother said that the marriage will be given, and the gift is still a concubine with an unknown background, which is unbearable, and when Mrs. Meng received the will, she almost threw the Queen Mother's decree on the face of the eunuch on the rice paper.
Although the other wives did not speak, their attitudes were the same as Mrs. Meng's.
Mrs. Meng said in the last words: "Princess, if this will is under our Yanbei Palace, let alone let my son marry a concubine, even if he marries a beggar, our Meng family will admit it." But now. The Queen Mother's will will not be accepted by our Meng family! Mrs. Meng said that her eyes were red after the most abrupt eyes.
The princess didn't blame her for being open-mouthed, she glanced at the ladies and said with a smile: "I know what you mean, but this matter is not in a hurry to be solved now." Although the Queen Mother made a decree to give marriage, the wedding date has not been finalized, right? ”
Mrs. Meng thought about it when she heard this, and what the princess said also made sense. Although the Queen Mother gave the marriage, but after all, the emperor is far away, we are not ready to marry, can you still force people to stuff people into the house? There is no wedding, there is no three media and six hires, even if the Cypriot enters the mansion, it is still a concubine!
The most rear. These wives who came to the princess to get ideas had to go back first, and although the marriage given by the queen mother did not explicitly express their resistance, they were all passive resistance.
Originally, these ladies photographed by the imperial court would receive posts to go to various houses in Yanbei to participate in a flower party and tea party after the golden banquet, but since the queen mother's marriage decree came down, no one invited these ladies anymore, and the family in Yanbei treated these ladies in the capital coldly as if they had been discussed.
During this time, the most depressed thing is these girls from the capital, they may not be happy to come to Yanbei, otherwise most of them will not be just concubines. But now they can't go back if they want to, and they are excluded when they stay, and they are in a very embarrassing situation.
Except for Yan Ningshuang and Zhao Yingqiu, who still live in the Yanbei Palace, the rest of the ladies from the capital still live in the courtyard arranged by the palace. , This time, the Queen Mother gave six marriages in one go, and four who were not married will return to Kyoto with the three adults in the near future, including Yan Ningshuang. The eldest lady of the Yan family was not married by porcelain. Although she herself actually wanted to stay.
So these ladies were divided into two groups, one group of people who had been given marriage began to embroider their wedding clothes and dowries every day under the explanation of those grandmothers, and the queen mother said that their dowry was already on the way to Yanbei. Only the wedding dress had to be sewn by themselves. The other ladies who had not been married breathed a sigh of relief and began to pack their bags and prepare to return to Beijing.
In fact, it is not only the family of Yanbei who is unwilling to marry these Beijing women, but also the Beijing women who are unwilling to marry Yanbei.
Marrying here means that from now on, you will never be able to return to your parents' home, and if something happens, you will not be supported by your mother's family, even if you are tortured to death by your husband's family here one day, you will not be known by your family. Because of his identity and background, he is not a person inside and outside after he arrives at his in-law's house.
However, unlike the other three ladies who were relieved to be able to go home, as the day of leaving Yanbei was getting closer and closer, Yan Ningshuang was becoming more and more unable to hold back.
She didn't want to go back to Kyoto, she just wanted to stay where there was Xiao Jingxi.
In the days when she lived in Yanbei Palace, Yan Ningshuang naturally reluctantly looked for Xiao Jingxi, but since she entered Yanbei Palace, she has never caught Xiao Jingxi once. The two obviously live in the same mansion, but they don't have any intersection as if they are separated by a world.

I slept well during the day, and then went out shopping with my mother, and there were many people on Wuyi Street ^^~.
Regarding the question of why the author must focus on the days at the end of the month, he is crazy to make up for the changes without discipline, wind and bones, and without temperament, because in most cases, the author can only take a vacation on those days of each month (not everyone can take a holiday on weekends, it depends on the situation.) )
On the question of whether the author has to make up the monthly updates he owes because of love for his readers or for money......
I don't know why Lu Dao has the illusion of answering who his father and lover are trying to save when they fall into the water...... There is only one kind of love that is incomplete in life.
I know that everyone wants the things or people they like to be flawless, but if I resolutely answer that I only want the love of the readers, I will live for love all my life, and I will treat money and honor as dung......
Ahem, you guys feel it.
In fact, the author is not tall at all, she loves beautiful men, loves food, loves to write stories, and has vanity. She loves the people she likes and likes herself, and she loves honor and money. She will bargain when she buys things, likes discounts in shopping malls, eats too much and is afraid of growing meat, and when her aunt doesn't come, she will be anxious, and she will want to fall down when she sees a beautiful man (huh?). )…… In short, she is just an ordinary to ordinary person, don't put a high hat on her.
All the author can promise the reader is to write each chapter as carefully as she can, and not to deliberately add water to make up the word count. Whether she loves you or not, whether the sincerity is enough or not, there is no basis for what she says, but you can try to feel it from the article.
(To be continued......)
