It is a very high honor to be hand-picked by the emperor in public, whether it is Zhou Xianrui or Zhou Xiantai, who is the prince, it was a holy decree back then, and he was ordered to marry his relatives and concubines, and no one has ever received this honor

It can also be seen from this that Emperor Ming really loves Zhou Xianyu very much.

But this honor did not make Zhou Xianyu feel happy, and even when he heard the word marriage, if it weren't for Zhou Xianrui on the side who stopped him, it is estimated that he would have stood up long ago and rejected this will in person.

His body was held down by Zhou Xianrui, unable to move, and Zhou Xianyu shouted in a depraved voice:

"Fifth brother, let go of me, I must make it clear to my father, you know who your brother wants to marry, you are stopping me, and when my father gives this marriage, it will be too late."

Hearing this, Zhou Xianrui not only did not let go, but suppressed Zhou Xianyu even harder, not allowing him to get up at all.

"Seventh brother, do you think it's too late now? My father has already made it clear that he will give you a marriage, even if he has not yet said who will give you a marriage, but if you refuse at this time, it will be a disobedience. In such a public view, where do you ask your father's face to go, even if he knows that you are unwilling and intends to change his decision, but in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, his father will assert that he will not change his words. ”

Zhou Xianyu struggled to get up, and said that the authorities were confused, and he was too anxious just now, so he even forgot such a simple truth in a panic.

Emperor Ming is not only his father, but also the king of a country. If he brushes the other party's face in public, then I am afraid that when the marriage happens, he will have to marry, and if he doesn't marry, he will still have to marry.

Therefore, this is no longer a question of marriage, but a matter of an emperor's face, and the consequences of falling will be quite serious.

And at this moment, Emperor Ming was still continuing:

"The daughter-in-law I chose for Yu'er is also a person that Concubine Liang is satisfied with, and she is Gu Aiqing's daughter, Gu Qingge."

As soon as Emperor Ming's words were finished, all the people at the banquet got up, chanting for Emperor Shengming, congratulating Emperor Ming on getting another good wife, and then everyone also congratulated Zhou Xianyu and Gu Shangshu.

Gu Yihang, as Gu Qingge's father, and now that his daughter has become a quasi-princess, he is naturally overjoyed, and he does not refuse to drink the congratulatory wine.

But the atmosphere on Zhou Xianyu's side is a little weird, but anyone who comes to congratulate him, as long as he just speaks, will definitely be scanned viciously from head to toe by this prince with sharp eyes, and those who see it feel cold in their hearts.

After a few uninteresting people touched their noses, everyone could see that Zhou Xianyu didn't seem to be satisfied with this marriage, so they dispersed separately, and they didn't come forward to find themselves bored.

And Gu Qingge, who was the biggest winner at this banquet, covered his mouth with a handkerchief with one hand, and he couldn't be confident, and he was already crying with joy.

Her mind Xiangping has always known, seeing that this cousin has been waiting for more than ten years, and now she finally got her wish, she also hurried to congratulate happily.

But Shen Wenqing, who is the princess of Rui, it stands to reason that Gu Qingge is now a quasi-princess, and as a cousin-in-law, she should have congratulated her.

But when she congratulated her, Shen Wenqing opened her mouth for a long time, but she couldn't say anything, and her hand was holding Xiao Jinxuan's hand tightly, and her expression was full of pity and unbearable.

Others don't know, but Shen Wenqing's heart is like a mirror, what her seventh brother likes is not Miss Gu, but Xiao Jinxuan beside her.

Moreover, although Xiao Jinxuan is as cold as ice and always ignores Zhou Xianyu, with a woman's understanding of a woman, Shen Wenqing always feels that in the other party's heart, he is actually pretending to be Zhou Xianyu.

Therefore, now that Emperor Ming has given marriage, in Shen Wenqing's eyes, Zhou Xianyu and Xiao Jinxuan have become a pair of hard-working mandarin ducks who are about to be beaten apart, so this will make her and Gu Qingge say hello, she is really in no mood to say this.

Glancing at Xiao Jinxuan distressedly, Shen Wenqing asked in a low voice:

"Jinxuan, are you okay, this is really a creation and making people, who would have thought that my father would give marriage in public, if it is a holy decree, everything still has room for maneuver, and now that the Manchu Dynasty is present, it is really difficult to redeem this matter."

Xiao Jinxuan heard this, even if she wanted to show a lighter demeanor, but when the words came to her mouth, her voice was still full of bitterness.

"Yes, who would have thought of it, this should be fate, in fact, it's okay, Sister Gu is a rare good woman, if she becomes the princess, Her Royal Highness will definitely be able to get a good wife."

Xiao Jinxuan also felt that all this was really providential, and she and Zhou Xianyu should have a fateful fate.

In her previous life, Miss Gu died tragically because of Qian Yingluo.

In this life, because of her interference, Qian Yingluo died in Yangzhou first, and Gu Qingge, who should have died, jumped out and became the princess.

Therefore, Xiao Jinxuan was thinking that Zhou Xianyu, who had never married until her death in her previous life, had gotten such a quasi-princess as Gu Qingge because of her appearance in this life, maybe this is the will of heaven, and the other party is destined to replace her and become Zhou Xianyu's bride.

Thinking like this, Xiao Jinxuan's heart is not so uncomfortable, since she is destined not to stay with Zhou Xianyu, there is a person who loves him wholeheartedly, and he is always by his side. This result may be the best choice for her and Zhou Xianyu.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan was not noisy, crying or making trouble, Shen Wenqing was even more worried, and immediately ran out of ideas, she hurriedly looked at Zhou Xianrui, and saw that this husband was also looking at her.

Then, Shen Wenqing saw that Zhou Xianrui suddenly nodded to her, then pointed to the cup, then glanced in the direction of the apse, and finally fell on Xiao Jinxuan.

The two have been married for many years, and there is still a basic tacit understanding, so Shen Wenqing immediately understood what Zhou Xianrui meant. Nodding vaguely, she suddenly sighed.

"Look at me, I've only eaten a few glasses of wine, and I'm dizzy and panicked, why don't you accompany me to the apse to rest."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan naturally would not refuse, and now in the hall, there is a singing and dancing, and the voices of congratulations are endless.

But just as she helped Shen Wenqing and left her seat to leave, Gu Qingge, who had been crying excitedly, suddenly got up and stepped forward to stop Xiao Jinxuan.

"Sister Jinxuan, you may not know, if you are not afraid of your sister's jokes, my sister has been in love with His Royal Highness since she was six years old, and now she can become his princess, and her sister will die immediately, which is also very happy in my heart, you and my sister are like old at first sight, although there are everyone's blessings to congratulate me, but what my sister wants to hear the most is still the blessing of Jinxuan's sister, I don't know if my sister is willing to fulfill my sister."

It has always been said that the human heart is the most complex thing, and this is really true, so there is that saying, knowing people and knowing faces does not know the heart.

Before Gu Qingge came down with this marriage will, she was full of envy and inferiority complex for Xiao Jinxuan, and she always felt that she was inferior to the other party, so it would be difficult to enter Zhou Xianyu's eyes.

Even when Mrs. Gu was going to ask for a good concubine to complete her marriage, Gu Qingge felt a little sorry for Xiao Jinxuan, and felt guilty and ashamed of her behavior.

But after Emperor Ming became a quasi-princess, Gu Qingge's mentality immediately changed imperceptibly.

The original envy and inferiority complex are gone, in her opinion, now Zhou Xianyu is her fiancé, and Xiao Jinxuan has turned into her biggest threat.

Therefore, he knew that Zhou Xianyu liked Xiao Jinxuan, but Gu Qingge pretended not to know anything, and specially told Xiao Jinxuan how hard he loved Zhou Xianyu.

In order to let Xiao Jinxuan retreat in the face of difficulties, it is best not to appear in front of Zhou Xianyu again in the future, then Gu Qingge is happy.

As for Gu Qingge, she must let Xiao Jinxuan tell her, but it was the possessiveness in her heart that was causing trouble, and when she thought of the woman Zhou Xianyu fell in love with, she actually blessed herself with a hundred years of good union with His Royal Highness, Gu Qingge's heart felt extremely satisfied and happy.

And looking at Gu Qingge, that delicate face, and the other party's eager eyes, Xiao Jinxuan wanted to refuse, but she couldn't find a reason, not to mention that the other party had saved her life not long ago.

Immediately took a deep breath and endured the discomfort in her heart, Xiao Jinxuan squeezed out a smile and was about to say the words of blessing.

But at this moment, Shen Wenqing snorted, protected Xiao Jinxuan behind him, and said first:

"Qingge, you are out of character now, your daughter's family is not married yet, how can you come to ask for auspicious words by yourself, don't forget, now you are not the princess, so you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and you must not embarrass the royal family, otherwise you will lose your virtue, and you will live up to the expectations of your father and mother and concubine."

Xiao Jinxuan is now heartbroken to death, and even her spirit is a little blurred, so the trace of hostility in Gu Qingge's eyes, she didn't notice it at all.

But Shen Wenqing, who was on the side, had been in charge of the Rui Wangfu for many years, although she was dignified and virtuous, she was also extremely intelligent, so Gu Qingge's ill intentions, she immediately found out, so she spoke out to relieve Xiao Jinxuan.

When Gu Qingge heard Shen Wenqing deliberately say that you are not the princess yet, and that she was heavy and slow, her face turned red suddenly, and she immediately wanted to find a hole in the ground to turn in.

And the more this is the case, the more she can't help but complain about Xiao Jinxuan in her heart, after all, Shen Wenqing is Concubine Liang's daughter-in-law, and Concubine Liang is her aunt, so it stands to reason that this cousin-in-law should be closer to her.

But now because of Xiao Jinxuan, the other party actually admonished her, and this kind of obvious treatment immediately made Gu Qingge's heart even more difficult to balance.

Seeing that Gu Qingge stopped talking, Shen Wenqing pulled Xiao Jinxuan and walked towards the apse.

Zhou Xianrui, who had been paying attention to their movements, immediately lowered his head and said to Zhou Xianyu after seeing this scene:

"Seventh brother, your fifth sister-in-law has led the fourth lady to the apse, I will give you a plan in a while, let's leave together, today's marriage came suddenly, you must make things clear to the fourth lady, the obstacles between you have not yet melted, and now with the addition of Gu Qingge in it, things are really getting more and more complicated."
