It was a woman, about forty years old, wearing a sandalwood dress, her hair was meticulously combed, and she had no jewelry on her body, but she had a solemn aura.

She walked in front of Shen Shu and Mrs. Jiang: "Anding the county lord, Mrs. Jiang, the slave maid is in charge of Kunning Palace, the queen learned that Mrs. Jiang is going to see the son-in-law for the county lord in the temple today, and the special slave maid came to help the county lord and Mrs. Palm, the queen said, the county lord's identity is precious, there is no need to be strict with customs, and you need to choose a husband who you really like." ”

When Shen Shu heard that it was the mother in charge sent by the queen, her eyes darkened slightly.

In this way, not only the emperor, but even the empress...... Don't you approve of her being with Chu Yi?

Different from Shen Shu's gloom, Mrs. Jiang was very happy in her heart.

After all, Shen Shu is her biological daughter, even if she can't marry His Royal Highness King Yi, she wants her daughter to choose a satisfactory one.

Especially Mother Zhang's sentence "You don't have to stick to vulgar etiquette" is even more on Mrs. Jiang's heart.

The people of the Great Zhou Dynasty are open, but they are not to the point of letting unmarried women choose their husbands in public.

However, this time, with the mother in charge personally appointed by the queen in charge, there is no need to have any scruples.

For Mrs. Jiang, who loves her daughter very much, this is a great grace from the queen.

She saluted her mother and asked with a smile: "Thank you for the queen's mercy on the little girl, dare to ask what mother to call her?" ”

The mother in charge turned sideways and replied respectfully: "The slave's surname is Zhang." ”

Mrs. Jiang: "With Zhang's mother here, I will be relieved." ”

Mother Zhang saw that Mrs. Jiang was full of gratitude, not as if she was fake, and her eyes drooped slightly.

She knows best that most of the people who come today are from poor families or the Xinglin family.

In terms of family background and appearance, compared with His Royal Highness King Yi, it is simply a difference between cloud and mud.

Now that the lord of Anding County can't marry His Royal Highness King Yi, and he has to choose a son-in-law among these people with mediocre qualifications, Mrs. Jiang, as her mother-in-law, is not only not the slightest frustrated, but she is still so happy-

As Zhang's mother, who watched Chu Yi grow up, it was really a bit unpleasant.

Zhang's mother said officially: "Niangniang heard that Mrs. chose a son-in-law for the county lord, and she didn't look at her family background, but only valued her character, so she asked the slave maid to select some people from the official media to show the county lord, and asked the wife and the county lord to move to Jingyuan, so that these people could ask the county lord one by one." ”

When Shen Shu heard this, she couldn't cry or laugh.

Let the men in the courtyard come up to greet her one by one and let her "look at each other", this is the treatment that the princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty chooses a horse.

It seems that the queen's attitude is more resolute than she imagined.

Shen Shu calmed down and said to Zhang's mother: "I'm tired, but I don't ......."

As soon as the word "no" came out, Mrs. Jiang hurriedly intercepted Shen Shu's words: "Since it is the grace of the queen's mother, then there is Lao Zhang's mother." ”

As she spoke, she took Shen Shu's arm and walked out: "This is what the emperor and the queen mean, refusing in public is disobeying the will of the gods, you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the Shen family." ”

When Shen Shu heard this, she swallowed the words that came to her mouth, and could only let Mrs. Jiang lead her and walk towards Jingyuan.

*

Jingyuan is a garden specially set up by Huguo Temple for pilgrims to watch the scenery, and Zhang's mother has already ordered people to arrange tables, chairs and snacks in the open space of the garden.

For half an hour, Shen Shu sat on the top under the signal of Zhang's mother, and the palace people led the men selected by the official media to greet her.

"In Xia Wang Meng, a person from the capital, please ...... the county lord"187

"In Xia Li Liancheng, people from Yangzhou, please ...... the county lord"

All kinds of men walked in front of Shen Shu, such a battle, if the person concerned was not Shen Shu, maybe she could still be a big bustle and watch it with relish.

But now, Shen Shu listened to Mother Zhang's whispering about those people's family backgrounds beside her, and looked at her own mother, Mrs. Jiang, who couldn't help nodding and smiling, and only felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.

Zhang's mother: "County lord, these are all people selected by the official media today, if there is a county lord who likes, you can inform the slave maid, and the slave maid can also give the queen mother's life." ”

Shen Shu's palms tightened, this was what the queen meant by urging her to choose a son-in-law as soon as possible.

"This ......" Mrs. Jiang also felt that the time was too rushed: "After all, it is a major marriage event, and we need to think about it again." ”

"The county lord and his wife don't have to worry too much." Zhang's mother said: "If there is no county lord among these people, let the official media choose again, and the queen said that the county lord must be selected until he is satisfied." ”

That being said, Shen Shu and Mrs. Jiang both knew very well in their hearts that the queen was urging tightly.

In front of so many people, if they say "dissatisfied", they will be in the face of the queen in public.

Although Shen Shu had contact with the queen before because of the emperor's illness, she felt that the queen was amiable and did not look like a person who would do such a public "forced marriage" thing.

But at this time, she had to admit-

From the queen's point of view, if for the sake of the relationship between Chu Yi and the emperor's father and son, it is the best choice to dispose of her family affairs as soon as possible.

What Shen Shu can understand, how can Mrs. Jiang not understand.

"The official media has been busy for so long, so there is no need to choose again." Mrs. Jiang sneered: "Those who came today are all excellent...... Fabulous ......"

Mrs. Jiang thought of countermeasures in her mind, and while looking for a portrait, she looked at the people in the courtyard, wanting to determine a "candidate" as soon as possible.

"To ...... Otherwise, this is good. She stuffed the portrait in her hand into Shen Shu's hand and glanced at Shen Shu vigorously.

Shen Shu closed her eyes, knowing that at this point, continuing to be silent would only make things worse and worse.

It seems that she has to make a break today, and the three-day appointment with Chu Yi is afraid that it will not be able to continue.

Thinking so, Shen Shu stood up and walked in front of Zhang's mother: "Zhang's mother, I ......"

However, as soon as she began to say something, a low and majestic voice came from not far away—

"No one has come, what's the hurry."

Shen Shu turned around in surprise and saw a person who could not appear here at all, with a cold face, dark eyes tightly locked on her eyes, striding towards her from the end of the crowd.

The aura of murder permeated the man's body, making the entire Silent Garden instantly become as silent as death.

"Didn't His Royal Highness King Yi think about it behind closed doors in the palace, how could he ......" Mrs. Jiang was the first to react and let out a low voice.

Because of this sound, Chu Yi's black eyes flashed slightly, and the murderous aura on his body dissipated.

He walked quickly to Mrs. Jiang and arched his hand: "In Xia Chuyi, the people of the capital, who have admired the county lord for a long time, want to ask to marry the county lord, and are willing to spend the rest of their lives with the county lord for the rest of their lives." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other, and they were all shocked.

King Yi, who was ordered by the emperor to think about it behind closed doors, suddenly appeared in the place where he chose a son-in-law for the county lord, and asked to marry ......

His Royal Highness, in front of a woman with no rank and no rank, calls himself "below".

Is this to "ask for marriage" or to "get rich"!
