Chapter 265: Feudal Marquis
On the day of the main day, Shi Jinxiu and Yu Wenyan went to the eldest princess's mansion early.
In order to show her grandeur, Shi Jinxiu specially wore a gold silk brocade dress, and also wore the red gold and ruby head given to her by the eldest princess, and the whole person looked graceful and luxurious.
Yu Wenyan was still wearing the fiery red unicorn suit, and his expression was so serious that people didn't dare to approach.
Mr. and Mrs. Shigang also rushed early in the morning.
In order not to make people laugh at their daughter and son-in-law, the husband and wife also deliberately dressed up: Shi Gang wore a silk robe with crow blue Wufu holding longevity flowers, and Jane's was wearing a smoky red makeup placket, and a hairpin of the most popular style in Beijing this year was on her head.
"The way we are, we won't disgrace you, right?" Looking at the eldest princess's mansion with five steps and one post at ten steps, everyone was well-behaved, Jane's was very nervous, and her palms were oozing sweat.
"No, it won't." Shi Jinxiu said to her mother, "When you see the eldest princess later, you will find out how kind she is." ”
As the mother and daughter were talking, Aunt Xu greeted them with a smile: "It's Third Master Shi and Mrs. Shi, right?" Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is talking about you two! Come with me. ”
Jane's dared to slack off when she heard this, so she quickly got a makeup cut and haircut, and followed Aunt Xu into the house.
"Grass People Stone Hills,"
"Grass People Stone Jane's,"
"I've seen Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."
The husband and wife performed a big gift according to the method taught by Shi Jinxiu.
"Hehe, get up!" The eldest princess was in a good mood, wearing a robe with a round neck and sleeves with red and dark flowers, and a red and blonde hairpin inlaid with emeralds on her white bun, and the whole person looked radiant.
"I often hear Sister Xiu'er mention you, but I didn't expect to meet you today." The eldest princess gave them a seat and asked some gossip about their daily lives.
Shi Gang and Jane answered one by one in a decent manner.
The eldest princess saw the nervousness of the two, and after a while, she let the two of them go to another room to rest.
In addition to Shigang and his wife, the eldest princess also invited other princes and wives, and people came to greet the eldest princess one after another.
Shi Jinxiu stood behind the eldest princess with a smile, as confident as the main family.
Most of the ladies invited here today had a relationship with Shi Jinxiu, so everyone was not surprised to see her, and some people took the initiative to talk to her.
Shi Jinxiu responded with a smile, and the eldest princess nodded secretly when she saw it.
Not long after, Duchess Zheng Guo came with Cai Xiang'er.
Due to the large number of people in the house, Cai Xiang'er did not find a chance to talk to Shi Jinxiu alone, so she could only squeeze her eyebrows with Shi Jinxiu.
"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, it is about to be auspicious, please move to the main hall." Aunt Xu came to report in due course.
Shi Jinxiu hurriedly stepped forward to help the eldest princess's arm, and went all the way to the main hall.
Yu Wenyan had already been waiting here with a group of male guests.
When everyone saw the eldest princess, they saluted.
Shi Jinxiu saw Gonggong Cao standing in front of everyone at a glance.
"The slave family was ordered by the emperor to come to watch the ceremony." As soon as Gonggong Cao saw the eldest princess, he bowed down and made his intentions clear.
The eldest princess nodded slightly.
Under the guidance of the master of ceremonies, Yu Wenyan knelt down three times and bowed nine times to complete the ceremony of succession, and even Shi Jinxiu gave tea to the eldest princess according to the rules.
After all this was over, the eldest princess suddenly said to everyone: "Today, I specially invited everyone to witness for us, it is I who accepted Yu Wenyan as my adopted son, and it has nothing to do with the concubine, let alone the Chen family." In the future, after a hundred years, the tablet does not need to enter the Chen family ancestral hall, and it is enough to have the offerings of my son and daughter-in-law. ”
The people who heard this could not help but be secretly surprised.
Everyone in the capital knew that Yu Wenyan was expelled from the family back then, and today's words of the eldest princess were obviously to let Yu Wenyan set up another ancestral hall.
Just when everyone hadn't come back to their senses, Gonggong Cao cleared his throat and took out a holy decree from his sleeve: "Yuwenyan takes the decree!" ”
And all the people in the main hall knelt down.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said: Yulin Wei commander Yu Wenyan, brave and good at fighting, brave and strategic, several times to save me in danger, today I am specially given a product of loyalty and bravery, as a reward!"
Bestow the title of loyal and brave marquis?
Shi Jinxiu couldn't believe her ears.
Just when she was still stunned, Yu Wenyan had already stepped forward to receive the holy decree.
"Congratulations to Master Hou!" Gonggong Cao handed over the holy decree to Yu Wenyan, "Before coming, the emperor specially explained that you would take your wife into the palace in two days to thank you." ”
After speaking, Gonggong Cao said goodbye to the eldest princess and returned to the palace to resume his life.
The rest of the people stepped forward to congratulate, and the husband and wife were a little overwhelmed.
Yu Wenyan said that it was okay, everyone was afraid of his unsmiling, and after saying goodbye, he didn't talk much, Shi Jinxiu was not so lucky, and the ladies of the family dragged her as much as possible, and gossiped with what she didn't have.
Fortunately, the eldest princess specially asked people to prepare a table, and Aunt Xu urged everyone to enter the table and rescued Shi Jinxiu, who was surrounded by everyone.
"I finally understand why people in high positions seem so unapproachable." Shi Jinxiu couldn't help but muttered to Aunt Xu.
Aunt Xu smiled with her: "I will get used to it in the future." ”
I didn't think that Aunt Xu would be a good word, and for many days, someone would post to Shi Jinxiu and visit her.
Shi Jinxiu has to be sent every day, and he is tired of coping.
"How can it be so tiring?" Shi Jinxiu complained to Yu Wenyan.
During this time, Yu Wenyan went out early and returned late, leaving her alone physically and mentally exhausted.
"You don't understand this, do you?" Seeing her like a dehydrated vegetable, Yu Wenyan hugged her and smiled, "For example, the parents of each family are short, and they seem trivial, but sometimes they can also let people know a lot of things, such as which family and which family are diligent, and which family and which family are planning to marry...... Men are not easy to ask about these things, so they have to rely on the women of the family to inquire. ”
Shi Jinxiu's face changed when she heard this: "Then I have never paid attention to these things, isn't it very unqualified?" ”
"I don't need you to ask!" Yu Wenyan pinched the flesh on her face and smiled, "Don't forget what I do." ”
Shi Jinxiu thought about it too.
The Zhenfu Division is responsible for collecting and probing all kinds of news, and what can be hidden from Yu Wenyan's eyes.
"Then why did they come to me? Could it be that they are trying to get something out of my mouth? Shi Jinxiu guessed, "Then I'll have to pay attention in the future!" Don't let them talk to them! ”
Yu Wenyan gave Shi Jinxiu an approving look.
"Why don't we go and have a good time!" Knowing that he had snubbed her during this time, Yu Wenyan proposed, "The eighth day of the lunar month is the Buddha Bathing Festival, let's go to the temple to worship." ”
"Will you be free that day?" Shi Jinxiu turned his head and asked.
"No matter how busy you are, you can make time." Yu Wenyan smiled with her, "Call my father-in-law and mother-in-law that day, and then take Brother Nan, Sister Yan and Brother Lin, let's go to Puhui Temple outside the city, okay?" ”
