Chapter Forty-Six: The Identity of a Righteous Woman
Since Nangong Liye came that day, Han Xiluo's door number of retreat and do not disturb has become useless, no, there are two more uninvited people in the room.
"Hey, I said, you two, don't you see the sign on my door?" Han Xiluo looked helplessly at Situ Mujin and Sheng Lingxiao in front of him.
"I saw it, but we also saw Ye come in, since the culprit can come in, then why can't we come in?" Of course, the one who said this was the demon prince Saint Lingxiao.
"He's a scoundrel, and so are you?" Han Xiluo gave him a blank look.
"If you can see Keer if you are a scoundrel, then it doesn't hurt to be a scoundrel again." Unexpectedly, Situ Mujin also followed the blind coaxing.
"Situ, I never knew that you also had the potential to be a scoundrel."
"It's not too late to find out." Saint Lingxiao said lazily.
"Tell me, what are you looking for from me?" Han Xiluo suddenly felt that he couldn't talk about them.
"Have you really decided to marry Ye?" Although Situ Mujin didn't want to ask, he still asked unconsciously.
"Do you think I have a choice?" Han Xiluo threw him a roll of the eyes, isn't this asking nonsense?
"Actually......" Before he actually came out, Han Xiluo had already interrupted him, "Okay, if Miss Ben is unwilling, no one can force me, in fact, think about it, there is nothing wrong with marrying him, not only don't worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also be able to mix with the princess, isn't it good?" ”
"Mixed princess?" The corners of Saint Lingxiao's mouth twitched a little, this woman, dare not be a little more presumptuous.
Han Xiluo threw him a look, what? Isn't it okay?
But since she has already said so, Situ Mujin has nothing to say, the most important thing is that he doesn't want to force her, as long as she wants to do something, she will definitely stand on her side unconditionally, even if she will be biased.
"It's good if Ke'er is willing, then Xiao De and I will prepare a big gift for you." Situ Mujin pulled out a smile.
"As long as people arrive, the etiquette is casual." Hehe, in fact, what Han Xiluo thought in his heart was that a richest man in the world, a dignified prince of a country, must be extraordinary.
"It just so happens that your wedding date is on the fifteenth of this month, and the queen mother's birthday is on the eighteenth of this month, and the envoys of various countries only need to make one trip." Saint Lingxiao held his chin and looked at Han Xiluo.
"Huh? The Queen Mother is about to celebrate her birthday? "How she didn't know.
"Yes, eighteen is the fiftieth birthday of the Queen Mother." Situ Mujin continued.
"No one told me that I still have to prepare a congratulatory gift."
"Don't worry about the congratulatory gift, Ye will handle it, and you can attend with peace of mind when the time comes." Situ said lightly.
"Oh, okay." Although he said this, he was already thinking about something in his heart, "By the way, Situ, do you know a master who can make musical instruments?" ”
"Yes." He happened to know the world's first technician.
"Then you wait, I'll draw something, and you ask him to do it for me." After saying that, he ran to his desk and began to draw.
For her character of saying that wind is rain, these two people have a deep understanding, so they asked Chen'er to prepare a chessboard for them, and the two waited for her while playing chess.
"That's it!" Han Xiluo finally put down the pen in his hand and clapped his hands with satisfaction.
The two people who were playing chess also stopped, and Han Xiluo handed the paper in his hands to Situ Mujin, "Just do this for me." ”
"What is this?" Situ Mujin had never seen such a strange thing.
And Saint Lingxiao just glanced at the drawings lightly, and then looked at Han Xiluo thoughtfully.
"Oh, don't care what this is, just help me make it."
"Well, okay." After speaking, the three of them chatted for a while, and Situ Mujin and Sheng Lingxiao got up and left.
After they're all gone.
Chen'er walked in, "Miss, come here, I'll help you measure." ”
"Measure? What's the amount? Han Xiluo was confused.
"Of course, it's the size, you're about to get married, you have to make a wedding dress quickly!" Chen'er looked at her own lady with some complaints, how could she feel that her own lady didn't take marriage to heart at all.
"Huh? Do you have to make your own wedding dress? I won't. Han Xiluo waved his hand directly and said.
"It's okay, this king has already invited the best embroiderer to help you make it." Nangong Liye walked in from outside, followed by three embroidery girls.
"The slave has seen the princess." The three embroidery girls respectfully saluted Han Xiluo.
"Get up."
"Yes." The three embroiderers slowly stood up.
"Are you going to measure me?"
"Back to the princess, yes."
"Then hurry up, what else does this princess do?"
When she heard her say this princess at first glance, Nangong Liye's heart didn't mention how comfortable it was, "Ke'er still has something to do, just let the next person do it." ”
"No, this girl has to go herself."
"It's Princess Ben." Nangong Liye corrected loudly.
It's just that Han Xiluo didn't pay attention to him at all.
After measuring the clothes, Han Xiluo kicked them all out, and no one was allowed to come in.
When Nangong Liye saw Han Xiluo again, it was already noon the next day, and Nangong Liye, who was already waiting in the front hall, watched Han Xiluo slowly walk in.
"Ke'er has seen the prince." Han Xiluo respectfully saluted Nangong Liye, there was no doubt that it must be because there were outsiders.
"The minion has seen the princess." Gonggong Chen's voice was still so sharp.
"Father-in-law is exempt."
"I don't know what my father-in-law is talking about this time?" Han Xiluo asked softly.
"The slave was ordered by the Queen Mother to invite the princess to stay in the palace for a few days."
"Staying in the palace?" Han Xiluo frowned slightly, what does this queen mother mean, why did she want to stay in the palace for a few days?
"Back to the princess, yes, the queen mother still has important matters to discuss with the princess, and of course the prince also entered the palace together." Gonggong Chen said sharply.
"Well, then Ke'er will go to the palace with her father-in-law." After that, she glanced at Nangong Liye, Nangong Liye nodded at her, and the two followed her father-in-law out of the palace together.
On the carriage, Han Xiluo looked boredly at the scenery speeding by outside the window, and didn't know what she was thinking.
"Ke'er, what are you doing with the door closed?" Nangong Liye was the first to break the silence.
"Secret." Han Xiluo didn't reply, and lazily replied to him.
"Can't even the king tell me?" Nangong Liye asked without giving up.
"Of course." Han Xiluo still answered him with two words.
"Can you say a few more words?" Nangong Liye said with his forehead raised.
"I can't."
"......" Nangong Liye was completely speechless.
"Lord, princess, it's here, please get off the carriage." At some point, Grandpa Chen's somewhat sharp voice came in from outside the carriage, and the two people in the carriage realized that the carriage had stopped.
Han Xiluo took the lead and walked out, Nangong Liye followed closely, supported by the flames, Han Xiluo got out of the carriage, and before he could take a step forward, his right hand was surrounded by a warmth, and when he looked down, Nangong Liye's hand had already held her little hand tightly in it.
Han Xiluo didn't break free of his hand, maybe he just wanted to have a strong support in this other world, so the two of them walked hand in hand to the Queen Mother's bedroom.
"I've seen the prince, the princess, and the queen mother has been waiting for a long time." The personal palace maid beside the Queen Mother saluted them like rain.
Nangong Liye didn't pay attention to it, and went in with Han Xiluo's hand.
When the Queen Mother watched the two of them come in hand in hand, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, it seemed that Ye'er was serious this time.
"Ke'er see the Queen Mother." "Ye'er has seen the queen mother." The two said in unison.
"Excuse me, excuse me, come, Ke'er, come to mourn the family." The Queen Mother beckoned to Han Xiluo.
Han Xiluo walked slowly to the Queen Mother's side, and the Queen Mother took her hand, patted her lovingly, and said with satisfaction: "Ke'er is really getting more and more generous." ”
Han Xiluo just smiled lightly and said: "The Queen Mother praised it falsely, Ke'er's appearance Ke'er knows it herself." It is estimated that she can only be described as generous.
"In the eyes of the mourning family, beauty is not a woman's permanent capital, but the inner attraction is the most irresistible for men." Just after saying this, a trace of sadness flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes.
Han Xiluo looked at this woman who had been crawling in the deep palace for most of her life, and suddenly felt that the most qualified person to say this should be her, in the endless palace fight, if you just want to climb step by step with your beauty, then there is only one end, after all, the years have passed, the fragrance has passed, and only loneliness is always around. And the Queen Mother was able to sit in her current position, not only because of her alluring appearance when she was young, but also because of her scheming.
"What the Queen Mother said is very true, and Ke'er remembers it in her heart." Han Xiluo said lightly.
"Seeing that Ke'er is so caring, the mourning family is really happy for Ye'er. By the way, the mourning family announced that you would come in today because there is something to discuss with you. The two saw that the Queen Mother was going straight to the point, so they didn't interrupt.
"Although Ke'er is the heir of the Valley of the Medical God, but after all, she is married to the prince, and this status must not be too low, the mourning family thinks like this, it is better to let Kerr marry as the niece of the mourning family, how about it?"
Han Xiluo was stunned, she really hadn't thought about what identity she was going to marry him?
"Kerr, what do you think?" The Queen Mother asked softly.
"Huh? Ke'er is all up to the Queen Mother. Han Xiluo came back to her senses and smiled faintly, in fact, she didn't care, but since she was a royal family, she couldn't tear down the stage if she wanted to save face.
"Okay, the mourning family will pass on the decree and tell my second brother, and you will marry directly from General Meng's mansion as his righteous daughter and niece of the mourning family." The Queen Mother smiled.
Dream? Dream General's Mansion? Han Xiluo suddenly felt that the whole person was not good, and his face changed slightly unnatural.
"Which Dream General's Mansion?" Han Xiluo's extremely ominous premonition arose.
"This girl, which dream general's mansion is there, our Nanshu Kingdom is such a dream general." The Queen Mother wrote a good joke.
When Han Xiluo heard this, he chuckled in his heart, it's over! The figure of a pink girl appeared in Han Xiluo's mind, last time in the Imperial Garden, she seemed to hear the emperor shouting what a dream the general's daughter dreamed of, ouch, is this really going to kill her, and she actually made her a sister to the enemy!
Nangong Liye saw Han Xiluo's anxiety, coughed lightly, and said softly: "If Ke'er doesn't want to, just give up." ”
Can she say she doesn't want to? The queen mother's maiden family, alas? Is this a blatant refusal to give the queen mother? Han Xiluo glanced at him weakly, and said: "The prince is too worried, it is a blessing for Ke'er to be the niece of the Queen Mother, how can you not want to?" ”
The Queen Mother naturally didn't see the interaction between the two, and said with a smile: "That's good, hehe, by the way, today is the eighth day of the first lunar month, and there will be a big wedding in seven days, Ke'er will live in the palace today, and let General Meng come to pick up Ke'er back to the general's mansion tomorrow." ”
Han Xiluo's scalp suddenly went numb, oh my God, she still had to live in the General's Mansion and live for so many days, so she didn't want to get married smoothly at all.
"No, Ke'er will follow this king back." Nangong Liye naturally didn't want Ke'er not to be around.
"Nonsense, how can the two parties still live together before they get married, and they are not afraid of other people's jokes if they are unreasonable." The Queen Mother said majestically.
"Does the queen mother think this king cares?" Nangong Liye said coldly.
"You ......" The Queen Mother was obviously a little angry.
"Ke'er listens to the Queen Mother's orders." Han Xiluo spoke out at the right time.
"Alas, it's still Ke'er's general knowledge, how can this royal family marry a wife, how can it be child's play, not to mention that there are envoys from various countries coming, how can I lose the face of my Nanshu Kingdom." The Queen Mother said helplessly. She didn't want to be unhappy with Nangong Liye, but she couldn't lose the face of the royal family.
"Ke'er understands, but can Ke'er go back to the palace to live today, after all, Ke'er still needs to pack some things."
"This ......" The Queen Mother really wanted to keep Ke'er to live, but after all, everyone said so, and it was not good to force her to stay, so she also gave up and said: "It's okay, you go back and pack up, and tomorrow I will directly ask General Meng to pick you up at the palace." ”
"Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother."
"Okay, the mourning family is also a little cut down, so you can retreat." The Queen Mother stroked her forehead and said.
As soon as Han Xiluo wanted to salute, he was grabbed by Nangong Liye and walked outside the palace.
