Chapter 134: Dowry
The Queen Mother nodded after listening to Li Yiqian's explanation, it should indeed be more solemn, so as to show that Qin'er's weight in their hearts is not ordinary.
"Brother Huang, thank you for thinking about Qin'er." Li Yingqin sincerely thanked her.
"What stupid words, you are my sister, of course I have to think about you for my brother." Li Yiqian looked at Li Yingqin's moved appearance, and couldn't help but think of the brother and sister relationship for so many years.
As soon as the dynasty was dispersed, Wang Jinyun and Wu Yuyan were called to Fushou Palace, so they didn't know that the marriage had chosen Li Yingqin, and at this time, they couldn't help but be a little shocked when they heard that Li Yiqian's sister was going to be sent to make peace. You must know that the successive dynasties and relatives have never been princesses of the royal family, at most they choose one from the women of the family and then be crowned as a princess. For those vassal countries' requests for harmony, there are not a few who directly choose palace maids.
It is really a little difficult to accept that Li Yingqin will go this time, but these are not issues that they should be concerned about, what they need to know now is Li Yiqian's plan and arrangement, so that they can arrange all the matters in the palace.
"Your Majesty, the marriage between the two countries, I don't know what specifications you plan to do?" Wang Jinyun's position is higher than Wu Yuyan's, so she directly asked Li Yiqian what his plan was.
"I've thought about it, now that the end of the year is approaching, it's not a good time to get married, so I'll wait for the spring of next year to let Qin'er out of the pavilion. At that time, if nothing else, the Eagle Congress will send a special envoy to welcome relatives, and at that time, everything in the palace will be handled according to the etiquette of the eldest princess's marriage, and I will tell the people of the Ministry of Rites about the other wedding matters. In addition, I and the queen mother will pick some more things from the private treasury, and you should remember to be careful when checking the dowry list. "Li Yiqian has been thinking about these things since he sent someone to Nalan Song yesterday to deliver the news, so it is very smooth to say it now.
"Knowing that everyone in the harem can also send congratulatory gifts to Qin'er, which is also counted in Qin'er's dowry. As for what to give, it's up to you. The Queen Mother took Li Yiqian's words and continued. Her words are somewhat interesting, to be counted, Li Yingqin is the sister-in-law of these harem concubines, but only the queen is a serious sister-in-law.
When the sister-in-law gets married, it is okay for the sister-in-law who is close to her to add something, but now the queen mother means that everyone can give it, which means that she does not recognize which one is the future queen, even the jade concubine who was originally close to her is no exception. Wang Jinyun, who was thoughtful, couldn't help but wonder if these words were telling those people a signal that everyone could get the queen's position.
The Queen Mother didn't expect that her simple move would cause these people to speculate so much, which caused Li Yingqin's dowry to exceed the normal specifications of the eldest princess later, and even the palace people with the escort dowry were much more than originally expected. But even if the Queen Mother knew that it would be like this, she must be willing. After all, in a sense, the richer Li Yingqin's dowry, the more the royal family of Huaguo values her. In this situation of the Three Kingdoms, the people of the Eagle Country did not dare to snub her, so that her safety was greatly guaranteed.
"The concubine knows, the queen mother, please rest assured, she will definitely handle this matter properly, and she will not lose face for our royal family. will not let those people underestimate the eldest princess. Wang Jinyun smiled mildly and responded to this.
"Your Majesty, I don't know when the specific wedding date will be?" Wu Yuyan asked a question that she had always been concerned about. After all, it is a marriage between the two countries, although Li Yiqian asked the eldest princess to prepare for the marriage, but many things are not the same, so it is necessary to confirm every process carefully.
It may seem like a long way from the end of the year, but if you add it all up, it will take a lot of time. What's more, the New Year is approaching, and the palace can't just be busy with this matter, they also have to arrange the Chinese New Year's Eve banquet and other things of the New Year, and wait until they are free to do this.
Time is tight, but nothing can go wrong, so the two of them need to discuss what to do at what time in advance. Make sure everything can be done within the stipulated time.
Li Yiqian thought for a while and said, "It's probably in March." At that time, it was not so cold, and it was easy to walk on the road. It's just that the Ministry of Rites needs to discuss the specific time with the envoys of the Eagle Kingdom, and there will be no mistake. ”
Hearing that the wedding date would be set in March, Wang Jinyun and Wu Yuyan looked at each other and smiled, now their task was not so urgent, and this time was much better than they expected.
"The concubine knows. I don't know how to prepare for the wedding dress......"
Hearing what Wang Jinyun was going to ask, Li Yiqian directly interrupted her: "The wedding dress is made by the embroidery lady who sews clothes for the queen in the palace, and the accessories and the like also let them hurry up and draw the pattern. ”
"Yes, the concubine knows. The concubines would tell those people to be the eldest princess's marrying things first, and as for the other sisters in the palace, they would put them first. Wang Jinyun said that he understood.
"At the moment, everything is about the marriage between the two countries. If anyone has an opinion, let her come to the mourning family. The Queen Mother interjected unhurriedly. Her words were not useless, because if she didn't say so, those people might sprinkle their anger on Wang Jinyun and Wu Yuyan for not being able to cut new clothes, but after Aunt Ying's persuasion before, the Queen Mother knew that these two people could never have an accident. What's more, once those people make a fuss, it will be Hua Guo who will make a fool of herself, so she will strangle all bad things in the cradle. The Queen Mother believes that as long as her words get out today, those people will never be bored to trouble the two of them.
"Yes." Wang Jinyun and Wu Yuyan naturally knew the Queen Mother's intentions, she wanted to make them less troublesome, although there was Li Yingqin's reason, but they were still a little grateful to the Queen Mother.
While they were discussing these things, Li Yingqin remained silent the whole time. I didn't know what I was thinking, I just looked down at the ground. It wasn't until Li Yiqian asked her what else she thought, and she asked several times before she called her mind back.
"Why are you distracted, what are you thinking?" Li Yiqian looked at her a little helplessly. This sister is good everywhere, but her temperament is too jumpy, and people don't know what to do with her.
"What did you just say, Brother Huang?" As soon as Li Yingqin came back to her senses, she saw Li Yiqian's eyes, and her heart was a little empty, she was really distracted just now. Because what they said was so boring that she couldn't leave, she had to think of other interesting things to pass the time. "It's obvious that what you said is too boring, knowing that I am most annoyed by these and still saying it in front of me, isn't it obviously to make me distracted."
Li Yiqian also felt a headache for her behavior of doing something wrong and suing the wicked first. As everyone knows, Li Yingqin's behavior was arrogant from him and the Queen Mother. Many times, a person's character has been formed when he was a child, such as Li Yingqin, although she was in the palace when she was a child, the Queen Mother and Li Yiqian protected her very well. Until she became seriously ill later, and then walked the rivers and lakes with her master, there was nothing that she needed a lot of energy to do. That's why her personality is a little off the line.
"You, if you don't send anyone to follow you when you come to the Eagle Country in the future, the mourning family is really afraid that you will do something earth-shattering." The Queen Mother also looked at the interaction between the two brothers and sisters with a smile on her face. She knows her daughter's character. Although Li Yingqin has not returned to the palace many times, and she has not been back in the past two years, the Queen Mother can still see her character from her actions every time she comes back. After getting along for two days, the Queen Mother was more sure of her judgment.
"Yun Ning definitely didn't like the emperor telling the Queen Mother about her in her heart, but she still sat here obediently, which is also a rare filial piety." Speaking of which, Wu Yuyan and Li Yingqin are still cousins, so they also laughed and teased her at this time.
Hearing her voice, Li Yingqin looked at Wu Yuyan. "You are Aunt Zhiqin's daughter, Cousin Yan?" Although it is a question sentence, Li Yingqin said it very definitely.
"It's this palace, Sister Yunning knows me?" Wu Yuyan still likes this cousin very much, although she doesn't have much contact with her, but she also knows that this is a simple-minded person like herself. Wu Yuyan likes to deal with people of their kind very much, because she is not tired in this way, and everything will be solved openly, without secretly guarding against the other party's frame-by.
"Of course! The queen mother said that the most upright person in this palace is Cousin Yan, and I think this is true. Li Yingqin was also full of affection for this person like herself, so she couldn't help but say the queen mother's evaluation. Without the slightest scruples, Wang Jinyun was also present.
When the Queen Mother heard this, she glanced at Wang Jinyun meaningfully, and found that the expression on her face had not changed, and she secretly praised her in her heart. If it's Yang'er sitting here, I'm afraid I'm going to be dissatisfied. After all, what Qin'er meant in her words was that the other people in the palace were scheming more than Yan'er, implying that they were all scheming people.
She thought that Wang Jinyun was good at disguise so that she didn't leak her voice, but in fact, what Wang Jinyun thought was that she was not familiar with the eldest princess, and she would not be very familiar with her in the future, so there was really no need to take her evaluation to heart. Besides, being said in the palace to be thoughtful can be regarded as a compliment. Because people with deep hearts can live long, and rectum is often the life of early death.
"The Queen Mother has won the award, but the palace just doesn't like those twists and turns, so it doesn't give me a headache." Wu Yuyan said with a smile. It's just that the meaning of her words is very simple, I just have a headache because I think about it so much, so I am the way I am now, so you don't praise me anymore.
