Chapter 1: Marriage

Next Chapter

In fact, when Nie Huaiyang was young, she didn't feel that she was any different from other ladies in Chang'an, obviously her father was an official in the court, and it was also clear that she listened to the master's lectures in the school with other sons and misses, and occasionally accompanied the elders of the family to the palace to participate in various banquets in the palace. But when he was a little older, Nie Huaiyang found that he was different from other ladies of the family.

At that time, she was only seven or eight years old, and she was at the age of ignorance. In her only cognition, all the little girls in Chang'an City will be like her and Sister A after returning to the mansion after attending school, and they will be like her and Sister A, walking in the courtyard and practicing martial arts. Sometimes it's daddy who urges, sometimes it's daddy's subordinates who urge them.

Until that time, she was arguing with Li Shangshu's son in the school, and she never imagined that Li Gongzi would have a lotus tongue at a young age, and after going to school every day, he would take a horse and walk every day, causing him to fall asleep when he met the bed, and Nie Huaiyang, who had forgotten what he had learned during the day, was difficult to continue to talk to him for a while. But after thinking about it for a while, Nie Huaiyang decided, since he couldn't talk about him, let everyone perform an over-the-shoulder fall on the spot and throw Li Gongzi to the ground.

Nie Huaiyang really didn't expect him to be so unbeaten, she had learned this trick for a long time, but it was the first time she had succeeded, and she secretly swelled up with pride in her heart, and she was a little proud to clap her little hands and express disdain for Li Gongzi on the ground: "Xiao Li, you are not good." Everyone was stunned for a moment, until Li Gongzi, who was lying on the ground, opened his mouth to call for help, and everyone came to their senses and hurriedly called the master. When the master saw Li Gongzi's appearance, he was so angry that his beard was raised, and the matter ended with Nie Huaiyang being punished by the master for copying the "Three Character Classic" ten times.

Since then, she has learned that there are many boys who practice martial arts, but the only women who have to practice martial arts after going to school are really her and Sister A from the General's Mansion.

But these slight differences did not hinder Nie Huaiyang's happy growth, no matter how to say that she is also a young lady in the general's mansion, she and Sister A are naturally more heroic than the daughters of those civil officials.

About twenty-eight years old, the elder sister Nie Huaisang followed General Nie to fight many battles on the battlefield and was awarded the title of the first female general of Nancheng, which is really a glorious happy event. For the Nie family, which has two generals and holds military power, there is no shortage of officials and princes in the court who want to win over this force. It is said that there have always been many ways to win over and take refuge throughout the ages, but only one is the most stable and strong.

That's marriage.

The second lady of the Nie family, with white skin and clotted fat, has a good temper, is kind, has good conduct, and is good in civil and military affairs, but the most important thing is that she is the daughter of the Nie family. Therefore, in the eyes of the wives of various families, Nie Huaiyang has always been an excellent candidate for a daughter-in-law, and it just so happens that Nie Huaiyang has also reached the age when he should get married. So for a long time, the ladies of various families sent the matchmakers to the general's mansion to talk about matchmaking, and the threshold of the general's mansion was about to be trampled by the matchmakers.

At first, Mrs. Nie was still quite serious about helping Nie Huaiyang find Lang Jun, but there were many people, and Mrs. Nie was not interested. Thinking about keeping Nie Huaiyang by his side for a few more years. After this delay, Nie Huaiyang will be nineteen years old.

There was faint news in the court that the eldest prince intended to marry Miss Nie and win over the Nie family. Most of the Chinese officials of the DPRK have their own little Jiujiu in their hearts, and they don't want to stand in line casually for the time being, and it is better for Mingzhe to protect himself and keep a certain distance from the general's mansion.

And Nie Huaiyang, who was originally the absolute darling of the blind date market, is now in a situation where no one cares.

This made Mrs. Nie anxious, on the other hand, Nie Huaiyang herself didn't care about her marriage at all, and she was still hanging all day long, insisting on practicing her sword every day.

In the past, it was the matchmakers who rushed to the General's Mansion to propose marriage, but now it is Mrs. Nie who is rushing to find matchmakers everywhere to find relatives for Nie Huaiyang. Those matchmakers who are sharp and sharp on weekdays are now stumbling, and they can't say a polite word for a long time, and finally confess: "Mrs. Nie, don't embarrass us, you also know that there is news in the court that the eldest prince intends to marry Miss Nie." This...... Those who have some power in the DPRK are afraid of wading into troubled waters, and the civilian cloth clothes are not worthy of the identity of the general's mansion, so they have wronged the second lady. ”

Mrs. Nie naturally knew, sighed and left. But she still couldn't understand how the news that the eldest prince intended to marry Nie Huaisang could be reported, and it was clear that the general's mansion had not had much contact with the eldest prince.

A few days later, the matchmaker came to the general's mansion with a smile on her face. It is said that the son of Li Shangshu's family has been devoted to Miss Nie Er since he was a child in the school, if the Li and Nie families can form a good alliance between Qin and Jin, Li Shangshu is willing to fulfill his son's infatuation, and stand on the side of the eldest prince in the battle for succession.

This Li Gongzi is well-behaved, not only is he knowledgeable and looks like a handsome son, but he and Nie Huaiyang have studied together in the school since childhood. What's more, this Li Gongzi is happy with Nie Huaiyang, and he will not be wronged if he wants to marry Nie Huaiyang. Mrs. Nie became more and more satisfied, and she was very happy to see it, thinking about finding an opportunity for the two children to meet again, and get acquainted with the relationship, so she urged Nie Huaiyang to go to the appointment.

Nie Huaiyang looked indifferent, and Mrs. Nie asked her to go and she went. It's just that Mrs. Nie thought to herself, as long as she went to meet, this would be one more chance, but Nie Huaiyang thought, what kind of excuse should she find to slip away when the time comes?

The meeting with Li Gongzi was about to be on the day of Shangyuan Festival. On this day, Chang'an Avenue is the most lively, it is the biggest event of the year in Nanchengguo, the street is full of lights, and the flower market is like a light day at night.

After lunch, Nie Huaiyang saw the long-awaited Li Gongzi under the peach tree at the gate of the General's Mansion, holding a folding fan and shaking it slowly, looking like a literati. Li Gongzi saw that it was Nie Huaiyang who had left the house, so he folded the folding fan in his hand and greeted her: "Second Miss Nie, I haven't seen you for many years since I said goodbye to the school." ”

Nie Huaiyang was blown by the wind that was still a little bleak in this New Year's month, shivered coldly, looked at the saber pinned to his waist, and then looked at Li Gongzi's folding fan, so he had to laugh awkwardly before he responded perfunctorily: "Li Gongzi, there are still a lot of changes in this school when you don't say haha." ”
