Chapter 185. Retreat and beg
It is different from the casualness of Emperor Jingde's previous private contract.
This time, the courtship made by King Anjun, even if it was not a big fanfare, it did not cover it up in the slightest.
As long as you are a person with a heart, you can already detect some clues.
The old lady nodded, and the matter was completely settled.
The eldest lady wanted to stand up against it, but intellectually she also understood that this matter was powerless.
Emperor Jingde's move seems to have indeed given the Bai family enough face.
After all, from the perspective of imperial power, if you want to choose Bai Xianyu as the crown princess. Since Emperor Jingde had already passed the Bai family when he visited the Bai family privately, and the Bai family had not raised any objections for such a long time, then in this matter, it was natural to make a direct decree and announce it to the world.
At least what Uncle Bai was anxiously waiting for at the beginning was the canonization edict that announced the world.
But Emperor Jingde unexpectedly put the Bai family on an equal footing with the imperial power in an unofficial form.
Counseling, asking for marriage.
How sincere this is!
However, in the eyes of the eldest lady, this is just a change of soup and not a change of medicine, and the form is just better.
This courtship seems to be holding the Bai family to ask for the Bai family's opinion.
But, can the Bai family really refuse?
Naturally impossible!
If the Bai family refused, no matter how tactful the refusal was. Since then, I am afraid that it has become the bird that has come out, or the bird that has stood on the opposite side of the imperial power.
Even if the Maison will one day stand on the opposite side of imperial power again, it will definitely not be at this time. And if it weren't for careful consideration, no family would dare to risk this disapproval, to be this bird!
Therefore, the matter of marrying Bai Xianyu as the crown princess, since King Anjun has already started this head, everything will be like the arrow that opens the bow, and there is no possibility of turning back!
No matter how unwilling the eldest lady was, she could only remain dignified, watching King Anjun talk happily with the old lady and her husband, and laughing at the compliments and jokes between the concubines.
The two sides soon reached an agreement, and King Anjun did not stay long.
After leaving behind a considerable number of exotic treasures, he took his leave and left.
However, after everyone in the Bai family returned, they silently digested the ups and downs of this morning.
This morning, the Bai family was unexpectedly divorced by the family, and this resignation has not yet been completely digested. King Anjun came to the door for the prince to propose marriage.
Even if the withdrawal and the proposal are two completely different parties, they are all the Bai family's affairs.
It is also necessary to say that "the willows are dark and the flowers are bright".
Or rather, it's all too dramatic!
After the departure of King Anjun.
The news that the twelfth lady of the Bai family was hired as the crown princess spread far and wide.
The speed of its spread even far exceeded the news that the third young master of the Bai family had been dismissed from his family that happened earlier.
The people of Kyoto often first heard that the twelfth lady of the Bai family was designated as the crown princess, and then heard that the princess's brother was dismissed.
All of a sudden, there was a lot of talk.
…
Jing Wu, who said goodbye to Jing Xin at the entrance of the Bai family, returned to his small courtyard alone.
From the moment she stepped into the Bai family to the time she returned to the small courtyard, along the way, she had already heard a lot about Bai Xianyu about becoming the crown princess.
The heart has long been overturned.
She couldn't have imagined that she was just going out of the door, doing a simple errand, briefly talking about old friends, and just returned to the Bai family, she had been in this world for eight years, and she had no clue about the task, and she was naturally officially on the track?
Great news!
It's just that I don't know if Bai Xianyu, as a party concerned, has already known the news.
Perhaps, I should go and see the white pomelo first?
Thinking of this, Jing Wu's original fatigue from sitting in the carriage for a long time was suddenly swept away.
After freshening himself up, Jing Wu went straight to Zhining Courtyard.
Before he walked into the Zhining Courtyard, he had just approached, and Jing Wu obviously found that today's Zhining Courtyard seemed to be extremely lively, and it was completely unquiet again.
This is probably a wave that stirs up a thousand waves......
The one guarding the door was still Mrs. Wang, and when she saw Jing Wu coming from afar, Mrs. Wang's old face was already full of smiles.
In her opinion, Jing Wu was originally just the daughter of the big housekeeper, although she was much more noble than those who were slaves like them, but she was not their master, so she was a little polite and polite, and she didn't offend.
Even recently, the eldest lady has clearly expressed her reliance on Jing Wu, although Mrs. Wang has shown a lot of reverence on her face, she still doesn't care about Jing Wu in her heart.
But now it's different!
You must know that Miss Twelve is the crown princess, and in the future, she will be the queen under one person, although Jing Wu is just a grass people, but it is too good to be able to prepare Miss Twelve and Jing Wu! This is good, Mrs. Wang has seen it really well in the past few years.
This Jingwu will be ordered in the future, isn't it just a matter of Miss Twelve's words?
You can't afford to slow down!
When Jing Wu approached, Mrs. Wang greeted warmly: "Miss Jing, ouch, the old slave is thinking about it, you are here, our Zhining Courtyard is completely lively today, and the ladies and ladies who come and go from all the rooms are almost here." ”
"Just now, even Miss Nine, who rarely goes out on weekdays, came with the fourth lady, and now, the old slave is just sending you."
When Mrs. Wang spoke, she obviously praised Jing Wu to the height of Miss Bai's family, and the meaning of flattering and selling well was beyond words.
Jing Wu didn't have the heart to talk to Mrs. Wang now, who was used to meeting the wind and rudder, chatting awkwardly, so she smiled awkwardly.
"Mother Wang is tormented ......"
"It's just that Jing Wu still has to go to meet Miss Twelve first, I made an appointment with her before, I'm afraid that Miss Twelve won't see anyone for a long time and lose her temper, so I won't gossip with Mother Wang."
Mrs. Wang's face was full of smiles: "Where can I delay Miss Jing, the matter of this twelfth lady is the top priority, it is all because the old slave is full of joy when he sees you so delicate and lovely, this mouth, I can't stop, I just can't wait to say a few more words." ”
"Oh, you see I've said a lot more, Miss Jing, you go, go by yourself...... Don't worry about the old slave. ”
Jing Wu smiled and nodded, bypassed Mrs. Wang, and then entered the Zhining Courtyard with a familiar way, only hesitated for a moment, and walked in the direction of the hall.
Although what she wants to see now is Bai Xianyu, since she has come to Zhining Courtyard, she should visit the eldest lady first.
As for whether the eldest lady has the time and mood to see her now, that is the matter of the eldest lady.
However, she guessed that the eldest lady should be the opposite of her at this moment.
