Gu Fanghua's smile made Empress Dowager Zhong bend over with a smile.

smiled and scolded: "You girl, you are really open-mouthed, you are young, you are dead or alive, and you don't know taboos!" ”

Gu Fanghua leaned on the shoulder of the Empress Dowager Zhong and said softly: "If you talk to your grandmother, you have to think about it, then what's the fun in life?" ”

"Did Xiao Yao send a letter?"

"Well, he said that he would leave at the end of September, and it is estimated that it will be in mid-October, so let me set the date first. Qin Tian supervised the selection of a few days, and it was appropriate for his grandmother to see which one was appropriate? ”

Empress Dowager Zhong was overjoyed, and raised her voice: "I chose those days, and I quickly showed them to the mourning family." ”

The green chrysanthemum will write the date selected by Qin Tianjian and present it to the Empress Dowager Zhong. Mama Fang hurriedly took her reading glasses and put them on for Empress Dowager Zhong.

Waiting for Empress Dowager Zhong to hold on to her glasses, she saw the date written on the paper clearly, and muttered: "October 28, it's too early, it shouldn't have been cleaned up yet." You girl doesn't want a princess's mansion, it's really troublesome. ”

Gu Fanghua only smiled and didn't speak, and Empress Dowager Zhong continued to look down.

"November 12, can also be considered. November 26, will it be late? At the beginning of spring, Xiao Yao will return to Yumen Pass in February at most, and it can't be too late. Then November 12, this day is just right, let the decoration of the Hou Mansion be stepped up and improved as soon as possible. ”

Empress Dowager Zhong finally chose a date and asked her to pass the date to Emperor Hong Zheng. She also has to prepare the list of Mingzhu's dowry, but she can't be wronged by Mingzhu.

Gu Fanghua doesn't care, her grandmother in the last life also prepared a lot of dowries, but they were all cheap Yan Shaoxun.

Now that he is replaced by Xiao Yao, with Xiao Yao's conduct, he will not have an opinion on any dowry. However, Gu Fanghua thought about it, and she didn't know if Xiao Yao's dowry was ready, but it couldn't be too shabby.

"Grandmother, how many days will it take to finish the six ceremonies?"

Mama Fang smiled beside her: "Generally speaking, it will take one month, but now that Marquis Xiao is not in the capital, many things must be done in person." I can only wait for him to come back, and then hurry up, and it is estimated that it should be able to do it in three or five days. ”

"Actually, it's good for the emperor's uncle to give him a marriage, what else do you have to go through the motions, it's not too troublesome?"

Empress Dowager Zhong slapped Gu Fanghua on the head, and said angrily: "If Xiao Yao wasn't stationed at the border gate, there would be no time to waste, and the mourning family would definitely be a big deal." ”

"Grandmother, in fact, this is my business with him, why let other irrelevant people get involved?"

Gu Fanghua wanted to persuade again, but Empress Dowager Zhong vetoed: "Don't say more, listen to the words of the mourning family, and go to the border with Xiao Yao after getting married." It is a serious matter to give birth to a great-granddaughter to the mourning family as soon as possible. ”

"Grandmother, I said that I would stay in the capital to accompany you."

"The mourning family is not dead, there is an emperor and a prince, and there are so many people with Xiuchun, what else do you want you to do? Mingzhu, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great, you don't want the mourning family to hurt you again. ”

Regarding whether to stay in the capital after getting married, Gu Fanghua has argued with Empress Dowager Zhong several times.

But no matter what Empress Dowager Zhong said, no matter what, Gu Fanghua just didn't agree. She was bent on serving her grandmother's death before she thought about herself.

Empress Dowager Zhong was relieved and a little worried, and planned to tie Mingzhu even if it was tied, and asked her to return to Yumen Pass with Xiao Yao.

"Then I don't want to get married, I'll stay in the palace to accompany my grandmother."

Empress Dowager Zhong hugged Gu Fanghua into her arms, rubbed the soft hair on the top of her head, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, you are also stupid when you speak." Okay, okay, let's not fight, after Xiao Yao comes back, if you still don't want to, go back to Yumen Pass with him, just let it be. ”

"Thank you grandmother, after he comes back to get married, he will go back to Yumen Pass first. I can wait until it's hot, go to Yumenguan, and then come back with him at the end of the year. ”

Empress Dowager Zhong looked at her wishful thinking and said with a smile: "Mingzhu, what you said is light, so if you are pregnant?" You can't travel long distances, so what? ”

Gu Fanghua was stunned for a moment, and whispered, "This shouldn't be so fast, right?" ”

"This child is fate, and the mourning family is waiting for you to get pregnant as soon as possible. To be honest, the mourning family is still waiting to hug their great-grandson. ”

As she spoke, Empress Dowager Zhong was interested, so she simply took Gu Fanghua to her small warehouse, and then the two of them made a good choice inside.

The simple list of dowries basically swept away the good things in Empress Dowager Zhong's private treasury.

And on the day selected by Empress Dowager Zhong, it was sent to the imperial study, and Emperor Hong Zheng also thought it was good, and soon Yan Rongling also knew.

His eyes darkened, and he counted the days in his heart.

I only hope that under the double arrangement, I can ensure that Mingzhu can't marry Xiao Yao and leave her in the palace forever.

Emperor Hong Zheng was quite happy and said with a smile: "It's okay." The palace has not had a happy event for a long time, and this time it is necessary to marry Mingzhu in a beautiful way. ”

Yan Rongling only turned a deaf ear and pretended that there was no turmoil in his heart.

On the third day of the ninth month, Gu Dian rushed to Yumen Pass. Looking at the mottled city wall from afar, the big Xiaozi flag is waving in the wind, and a kind of respect arises spontaneously.

When waiting for the customs clearance, Gu Dian carefully observed the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate.

Seeing that they are all energetic and peaceful, they have a new understanding of Xiao Yao's ability.

When it was Gu Dian's turn, seeing that he was wearing a mask on his face, an officer and soldier guarding the city said without humility or arrogance: "Can you please take off the mask?" If you are in a large crowd and it is not convenient for you, we can go to the side. ”

Gu Dian was also very satisfied with the caution of the officers and soldiers, and followed the officers and soldiers to a corner and took the initiative to take off their masks.

The officer and soldier didn't see any suspicions, and the road guide was normal, so he let Gu Dian and the four secret guards he brought into the city.

The Yumen Pass is not large, and most of the area is allocated to the officers and soldiers stationed there. The only remaining place is in the shape of a tic-tac-toe, and there are four civil streets.

Gu Dian did not reveal his identity, but found an inn to live in.

Because the guest house had to guide the way and write down the place of origin, Gu Dian simply asked a secret guard to write his name as the host.

After Gu Dian took a bath and changed clothes, he stood by the window of the guest room, looked downstairs, and couldn't help nodding secretly.

A glimpse of the whole picture can be seen, Xiao Yao's ruling ability is good, and he can take care of the Yumen Pass in an orderly manner. Not only can it defend against external enemies, but it also does a good job in business and people's livelihood inside.

"Master, do you want to go directly to the General's Mansion?"

"No, let's take a look at the situation at Yumen Pass first. I don't want to talk to him, but it would be nice if I could see him unintentionally. You go out and ask him what habits or hobbies he has. ”

Gu Dian's words naturally had to be followed, and soon several secret guards inquired separately.

In the evening, several people inquired about Xiao Yao. Gu Dian was very interested, and asked them to come next to each other to see if they could analyze anything.
