Chapter 20 As scheduled
After taking the pills made by Dr. Zeng for two days, the typhoid fever of the feast was cured.
It has been raining heavily in the capital for three days, and now the rain is light, but it is still falling. Due to the heavy rain in the capital, it is rare for the gentlemen to be trapped in the mansion and not run outside the mansion, even Cheng Chu, who always likes to run to the Duanjing Waiting Mansion, has stopped for the past three days, and honestly stayed in the mansion to watch the rain out of the window.
The capital has been dry for two or three months, and now it is too rare to see such heavy rain.
No one came to look for him, Yan Qing was sick in the rain, and he was taught a lesson, and he would not go out of the room in the rain, and now he has no headache when he reads, so he simply went to the study to read.
He hasn't held books for many years, but now that he touches books, he is quite emotional, "I think I can't hold such a thing as a book in my life." ”
Duanyang almost cried at his words, and said with red eyes, "Little Hou Ye, fortunately, you met Miss Ling." ”
Yan choked, and his emotion disappeared in an instant, "Then I'll not touch the book." ”
Is it a nice thing to meet her? That calculating little liar, no, big liar.
Duanyang immediately shut up.
Yunluo sighed helplessly, thinking about whether Feiying had found his master, whether the master had received the news, and whether he could come back for the wedding as scheduled, he looked at the heavy rain outside the window, and he really couldn't help but worry.
After three days of heavy rain, it rained for another three days, and Yan Qing read the book for a few days in a row, and on this day, he suddenly asked Yunluo, "How many days are there until the wedding?" ”
Yunluo was worried, "The day after tomorrow." ”
Yan chuckled, "The days go by very quickly." ”
Yunluo nodded, the days are indeed fast, there are still two days left, but there is no news from the master.
Yan Qing looked at Yunluo, "If I cancel the marriage contract with him, but I want to keep you, will you stay?" ”
Yunluo was startled.
Yan looked at him lightly, "She is calculating my marriage, shouldn't I let her compensate me?" Give you to me, even if it is her compensation for me, how about it? ”
Yunluo was silent.
"What? You disagree? Yan raised his eyebrows.
Yunluo shook his head and replied to Yan Qing, "If the master agrees, I am willing to follow the little marquis." ”
Anyway, he felt that if the little marquis asked for him, the master would not be reluctant to give it.
Yan Qing was satisfied, "It's pretty much the same." ”
He asked Yunluo again, "Do you think she has no news now, will she be able to come back?" Or did you not receive the letter from you? ”
Yunluo didn't know the bottom in his heart, "If it rains heavily outside Beijing, Feiying may get lost, the time is too short, and it is possible to find the master." ”
"That's better." Yan nodded lightly, "Calculate me, this is the end." ”
Yunluo closed his mouth, hoping that the flying eagle would successfully find his master.
In his expectation, another day passed, and there was still one last day left before the wedding, and on this day, Cheng Chu, who had been holding back in the house for many days, came to find him and went out for a drink.
Yan nodded lightly, and was just about to agree, a flying eagle flew straight towards the cloud behind him, and landed on his shoulder, Yun saw that it was the flying eagle released by himself, he was overjoyed, and quickly untied the letterhead tied to his leg, the person who never liked to laugh, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a chuckle to Yan, "Little Hou Ye, the master said that you are a good word, a promise, and you have to speak to count, she asked you to prepare, she will come back as scheduled for the wedding." ”
Banquet light: "......"
Cheng Chu: "......"
What did he hear? Brother Yan's wedding doesn't need to be postponed? Sister-in-law is coming back for a big wedding? That's a great thing.
He smiled and said to Yan lightly, "Brother Yan, congratulations, let's not go out for a drink today, tomorrow, I will bring my brothers to your house to drink your and your sister-in-law's wedding wine." ”
Yan ignored him and said to Yunluo, "Show me the letter." ”
Yunluo handed him the letterhead.
Yan despised it, and said angrily, "Isn't she afraid of dying of exhaustion?" ”
Yunluo answered, "For the sake of the little marquis, the master is not afraid." ”
The banquet was light and silent.
Yunluo put away the smile on his face and asked nervously, "Little Marquis, you won't regret it, right?" ”
A gentleman's words, the horse is difficult to chase!
Yan Qing wanted to say that the master was not a gentleman, but looking at the tired flying eagle who had fallen asleep and died, he couldn't say anything.
"Brother Yan? What's wrong? Aren't you happy that your sister-in-law came back to marry you as scheduled? Cheng Chu felt that Yan Qing's expression really didn't look like he was happy, and he was also a little nervous.
Yan Qing paused, and squeezed out two words from between his teeth, "Happy." ”
Cheng Chu didn't have the heart to pat Yan Qing on the shoulder when he heard this, "Brother Yan, if the brothers know this news, they will definitely be very happy, I will go and inform them to come to accompany you tomorrow to welcome your relatives and drink happy wine together." ”
After Cheng Chu finished speaking, he stayed no longer and left happily.
Yan Qing took a deep breath and ordered firmly, "Duanyang, go and tell the housekeeper to get married as scheduled." ”
Duanyang was also overjoyed, and immediately answered and went away.
The housekeeper almost cried with joy when he learned about it, and said again and again, "Okay, okay, the old slave will order someone to arrange it, and let the little marquis take the team to the Ling family to greet his relatives tomorrow." ”
He was so happy that he called a person, "Hurry up and send a letter to the Queen Mother in the palace, just say that Miss Ling is coming back, the little Marquis will get married tomorrow as scheduled, and the Queen Mother will come to watch the ceremony tomorrow." ”
Someone immediately went.
After the queen mother in the palace learned the news, her state of not being in good spirits these days suddenly improved, she got up from the bed and said again and again, "Go and talk back, just say that the mourning family will go to watch the ceremony tomorrow, and go early in the morning." ”
After she finished speaking, she was so excited that she didn't know what to do, and said to Grandma Sun, "Didn't Ling Hua say that she couldn't come back in time and wanted to delay the marriage?" How can I rush back now? ”
Grandma Sun was also puzzled, but she was also happy, "Probably Miss Ling's matter is done, and she can rush back, so she rushed back." ”
The Queen Mother nodded and ordered urgently, "Quickly go and inform the Ministry of Rites, and go to Duanjing Houfu tomorrow to preside over the wedding." ”
Mama Sun immediately said, "The slave maid personally went to the Ministry of Rites to deliver the message. ”
The Queen Mother waved her hand, "Go quickly, go quickly, we must let the Ministry of Rites be in order, and quickly pick up all the suspended matters, and no mistakes will be allowed tomorrow." ”
Mama Sun should have been, and hurriedly went.
After the people in the Ministry of Rites got the news, they were all stupid, and they called their mothers in their hearts, but they didn't dare to disobey the orders of the Queen Mother, and a group of people were busy all at once, and there was no idler in the entire Ministry of Rites for a while.
Duanjing Houfu, the palace, and the movement of the Ministry of Rites, as well as Cheng Chu's shouting everywhere, it didn't take long for all the mansions in Beijing to know the news of the wedding of the little marquis and Miss Ling as scheduled.
Even when the emperor learned about it, he was surprised, "Ling Hua is coming back?" ”
Gonggong Zhao nodded, "I heard that the person who went to the Empress Dowager's palace to report the news said that Miss Ling would rush back to get married as scheduled, and she is still on the way." ”
The emperor nodded, "It has rained for many days, and it has just sunny, so there is such a happy event, which is good." You go to Changning Palace to talk to the Queen Mother, and tomorrow I will accompany the Queen Mother to watch the ceremony. ”
Zhao Gonggong should be, and immediately went to Changning Palace.
On this day, Ling Hua finally made it to a hundred miles away from the capital.
Sure enough, as she guessed, Wen Xingzhi's people received the news and blocked the road hundreds of miles away.
After Ling Hua was carried and shook for two days and nights, his stomach was empty, and now he was able to stay on the horse by himself, but the whole person was extremely physically and mentally exhausted.
She collapsed on her horse's back and said to the person blocking the road, "You go back and tell Wen Xingzhi that he knows my relationship with Lingshan, and if he dares to stop me today, I will let Lingshan send troops to level his Youzhou." ”
She didn't believe it, and Wen Xing didn't take this step back.
After Ling Hua finished speaking, five hundred guards including Wangshu and Liuli showed their weapons one after another.
There were also hundreds of people sent by Wen Xingzhi, and one of the Secret Guard Commanders hesitated for a moment before bowing his hand to Ling Hua, "Miss Ling, wait a minute, my son-in-law is on the mountain, let me send someone to tell you." ”
Originally, Wen Xingzhi gave him an order to rob Ling Hua up the mountain, but these people who watched Ling Hua were all first-class masters, and he knew that he couldn't do it, since Ling Hua said so, he could only send someone to the mountain to ask Gongzi.
Ling Hua nodded, "Okay." ”
She also didn't want to have this vicious battle with Wen Xingzhi's people tonight after five days and five nights, Wen Xingzhi's people couldn't please her, but her people were tired, and she was afraid that the casualties would be heavier, so she couldn't do it, it was better not to do it.
Anyway, there is still one night, tomorrow is the wedding period, and now she is a hundred miles away from the capital, she can always arrive.
So, the two parties were deadlocked, Wen Xingzhi's people sent to pass the word, and Ling Hua took the opportunity to get off the horse and rest.
Wen Xingzhi received news two days ago that Ling Hua came out of Lingshan, traveled day and night, and rushed to the capital to get married as scheduled. He didn't know that Ling Hua had obviously postponed the wedding, whether it was Duanjing Houfu or the Ling family, the wedding matter was suspended, and the queen mother in the palace also sighed again and again, saying that she could only wait for next spring to drink the tea of her nephew and daughter-in-law, I don't know what happened, Ling Hua suddenly changed her mind, wore the stars and the moon, and hurriedly came back to get married as scheduled.
Wen Xingzhi did so much, just to prevent Ling Hua from marrying into Duanjing Houfu, he naturally couldn't fail without sending someone to stop him, he not only sent people, but also went out of the city in person.
Wen Xingzhi sat on the Red Maple Mountain a hundred miles away, waiting for his people to invite Ling Hua to go up the mountain.
