Chapter 1125: Marriage Proposal (1)
In order to marry a daughter-in-law for her son, Yin Xiaoxiao really put a lot of effort into it. In half a year, I went to Mei's house three times in person, and the Mei family finally nodded and agreed.
Brother Lin's life's major events have come to an end. The Liu family is far away in Shudi, and they only rely on communication and official media, so I am afraid that they will not be able to impress the Liu family. Poor Brother Ting, who has been like a frosted eggplant lately, has been frowning all day long.
Even Concubine Mei heard about it.
Xie Mingxi smiled faintly: "The fifth sister-in-law came to Jiaofang Hall yesterday to discuss with me and let Brother Ting'er go to Shu and personally go to Liu's house to ask for relatives." ”
What the?
Concubine Mei was taken aback, and looked at Sheng Hong reflexively: "Brother Ting went out of Beijing to Shudi...... Is this appropriate? ”
Brother Ting and Brother Ji were born in the capital and grew up in the palace. Over the years, the emperor and queen have been quite generous and tolerant to several nephews. But no matter what, they are the sons of criminal ministers, how can they easily release the capital?
The more Concubine Mei thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and she lowered her voice and said, "For the sake of safety, you can't do such a thing." ”
Sheng Hong said: "After Mingxi and I discussed, I have already been invited by my fifth sister-in-law. Three days later, Brother Ting set off for Shudi. ”
Concubine Mei: "......"
It should be all answered, and it's too late to stop it.
Concubine Mei was a little depressed: "That's it! Since you husband and wife have thought about it, you want to be quite sure of Brother Ting. Why do I have to talk so much and be a villain for nothing. ”
Sheng Hong smiled and coaxed his mother: "The mother concubine is all for the sake of Ah Luo, how can Mingxi and I not know in our hearts?" However, Brother Ting grew up in the palace since he was a child, and even if he was a little short-tempered, he was also a good boy with a clean mind. This time, he was allowed to leave Beijing and go to Shudi, for his family affairs. He won't think about anything else, and the concubine will rest assured. ”
"Taking a step back, even if he has a different heart, he can't do anything." Xie Mingxi took over the conversation leisurely: "There are Ye Changshi and others in Shu, as well as General Lian and tens of thousands of Shu soldiers, which can be described as stable as a mountain. ”
Shu is the "old nest" of the emperor and queen who has been operating for more than ten years. If a prince of King Ning can turn over the wind and waves, it is a joke.
Concubine Mei was finally persuaded to calm her mind and said no more.
……
For a sixteen-year-old boy, it is undoubtedly an exciting thing to be able to leave the capital alone and go to Shudi, thousands of miles away.
What's more, this trip is still to marry the girl he loves.
Brother Ting was so excited that he didn't sleep well for a few nights, and the night before leaving, he had to talk with Brother Lin at night.
Brother Lin yawned again and again, and when he heard such an offer, Jun's face showed a firm refusal: "Pull you down, I've been with you for three nights, and I will ignore you today." You go to sleep. You'll have to leave early tomorrow morning. ”
The two brothers each have their own bedrooms, but the two have been close friends since they were children and often get together. In the past few days, Brother Ting has been overly excited, and Brother Lin has also been choked enough.
Brother Ting smiled shyly: "Cousin Lin, it will take two months for me to leave." Perhaps, I will have to stay in Shu for a few more days. My two brothers have been together since we were young and have never left. I really can't bear you in my heart, come on, let's talk. ”
Brother Lin: "......"
Brother Lin looked painful and helpless: "I'm afraid of you." You say, what do you want to talk about? ”
Brother Ting'er was full of nervousness: "You say, if I go to Shu to ask for a kiss, will I be rejected by Liu Jun?" If the Liu family refuses to accept the family matter, what should I do? ”
Brother Lin touched his chin and thought deeply: "If you go to Shu to ask for marriage in person, and the Liu family doesn't respond, it can only mean that you and Miss Liu really have no fate." You'd better find another good match! ”
Brother Ting: "......"
Brother Ting'er Huo Ran stood up, clenched his fists hard, and said categorically: "I will not marry Miss Liu in this life!" If the Liu family should not be in the family affairs, I will stay in Shu until the Liu family nods. ”
Brother Lin rolled his eyes and reminded him kindly: "It's okay to say such things in front of me." When I arrived in Shu and met the Liu family, I had to be polite and polite. Don't show this unreasonable and domineering face at every turn. ”
If someone else said such words, Brother Ting would definitely be unhappy. Brother Lin said, but he was not annoyed at all, and obediently responded.
After a while, Brother Ting whispered again: "Actually, I want you to go to Shu with me." I went alone, and I felt uncomfortable. ”
Brother Lin sighed helplessly: "Don't you want to accompany you?" But my family affairs have not yet been officially decided, and I have to come forward in everything. I'm really lacking in skills. ”
"In short, when you go to Shudi, you must listen to the words of Commander Zhou, and you must not make trouble."
Brother Ting went to Shudi, and Sheng Hong specially ordered Zhou Quan to lead five hundred royal forest guards to accompany him. General Lian is in Shudi, and he comprehensively escorts Brother Ting'er, and he can also reunite with his beloved wife for a long time.
Brother Ting nodded.
……
The two brothers chattered for half the night, slept for less than two hours, and then it was dawn.
Brother Lin'er was blue at the moment, and yawned from time to time.
Brother Ting was not tired at all, he said goodbye to Yin Xiaoxiao energetically, and went to the Jiaofang Palace to resign.
Facing Brother Ting, Xie Mingxi always looked indifferent and gentle, neither cold nor hot, neither close nor alienated: "This trip is rushing, living and traveling, you have to listen to the arrangement of Commander Zhou." When you arrive in Shu, you will live in the palace of the king of Shu. Ye Changshi will lead you to Liu's house. ”
Brother Ting is not afraid of heaven and earth, but he is most afraid of Xie Mingxi. In the Jiaofang Palace, not to mention how well-behaved and honest he was: "Yes, my nephew strictly obeys the teachings of the seventh aunt." ”
After leaving the Jiaofang Palace, Brother Ting let out a long sigh of relief.
A group of cousins came to see him off.
Ah Luo said with a smile: "Cousin Ting, we are in the capital, just waiting for your good news." ”
Brother Ting straightened his chest and said loudly: "Wait!" Two months at most, I'll be back. ”
Then, amid the laughter of the crowd, we stepped forward.
Outside the palace gate, five hundred royal forest guards rode horses, neatly arranged. The leading middle-aged man, tall and mighty, is exactly thoughtful.
Zhou Quan arched his hand and said: "Shizi, it's not too early, it's time to leave." ”
Brother Ting answered, rode a horse, and took the lead in galloping.
The group rode fast horses, took the official road, and arrived at the Shu Wangfu in more than 20 days.
It is better to read 10,000 books than to travel 10,000 miles.
Running all the way, Brother Ting'er's youthful vigor has been smoothed out a lot. Seeing Ye Changshi and the others who came to greet him, Brother Ting didn't and didn't dare to put on a show, so he hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to greet him.
The people who stayed in the palace of the king of Shu were all henchmen of the emperor. Brother Ting is impulsive and irritable, but he is not such a fool who only knows arrogance.
After settling down in the Shu Palace, Brother Ting couldn't wait to go to Liu's Mansion to send a post.
