Remember [ .] in one second, wonderful free reading without pop-ups!
The next day, the sky was beautiful and cloudless.
Because the East Palace is going to come to the dowry today to marry Xie Feifei and enter the East Palace as Mrs. Si, so early in the morning, the people of the Xie family are waiting in the mansion. Xie Feifei got up early, and after bathing, he changed into complicated banquet clothes, and sat in his peony garden waiting for the arrival of the crown princess.
Pei Xie Tang was also picked up early in the morning, and after the basket urged her to take a bath, she took out a banquet dress: "Miss, how about wearing this one?" The lady has white skin and looks best in purple. ”
"Don't wear this." Pei Xie Tang shook his head: "Today's crown princess and the second lady are the main event, don't overshadow them for no reason." Didn't Gao Gongzi give me an orange skirt last time? It's best to wear that, look good, and not be ostentatious. ”
The basket hummed and quickly helped her get dressed. When it was time to put on makeup, Pei Xie Tang objected again, she tried to be simple, and did not fearlessly offend the crown princess in these little things. She is not careful, but the crown princess of the East Palace, she has heard of it for a long time, and she has seen it many times when she was the lord of Tai'an in the past. This person is from the famous Wei family, married the prince Zhu Shenjian at the age of sixteen, over the years, the princess is very favored by the prince, gave birth to two boys and two girls, plus Queen Chen likes her, Emperor Shou favors her, it can be said that she is a first-class celebrity in the East Palace, and no one dares to slack off the housewife.
With such a status, the crown princess is naturally arrogant in character, and she dare not show it to the superiors, but she is not lenient to the people below.
I heard that in the East Palace, several side concubines and ladies in the palace did not dare to easily anger her rebels, just because the crown princess was a little cautious, and on many occasions, she couldn't see that others were stronger than herself, and she didn't like others to steal her limelight.
In this regard, she is the same as the second princess Zhu Qingzi.
Pei Xie Tang smiled, the prince of the East Palace is no longer easy to mess with, if he accidentally provokes the crown princess, it will be too cost-effective!
So, low-key, cautious, is the motto she gave herself today.
After changing his clothes, Pei Xie Tang went to the main hall. Xie Yijiang was already waiting in the main hall, but his solemn old face collapsed, and he couldn't lift a smile.
Also, whoever marries a daughter is treated like this, I'm afraid I can't be happy!
Zhu Shen saw that this one was really a bit excessive!
Pei Xie Tang couldn't see that Xie Yijiang was unhappy, sat next to Xie Yijiang, looked around, Xie Feifei hadn't come yet, so he smiled and coaxed Xie Yijiang to be happy: "Dad, why are you unhappy again?" My daughter heard that the crown princess came to hire today, although the prince did not come, but he still gave our Xie family enough face at the dowry, and there were twenty-four lifts. ”
Marrying a wife is still thirty-six lifts, concubines are usually only six, and those who are generous are only twelve, and the East Palace gives twenty-four lifts, which is indeed a very face-earning thing.
After hearing this, Xie Yijiang felt a little more comfortable, and sighed: "The prince treats Feifei like this, and my father is worried about how she will live when she goes to the East Palace in the future." ”
"The second sister is not a fool, besides, with her father, the prince will not neglect the second sister." Pei Xie Tang said busily.
Her eyes rolled, she wanted to contribute to Xie Yijiang's official career earlier, but she was worried that Xie Yijiang had stayed in the position of Ting Wei for a long time, and her mind was not active, so it was not good for her to plan from it, and now is a perfect time.
After thinking about it for a while, she said: "If my father has an auspicious official career in the future, are you still worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not take the second sister to heart?" Perhaps, when the second sister gives birth to an heir in the future, the prince will raise her as a side concubine. At that time, the second sister's name was decided, everything was supported by the law, and there was no place to be wronged. ”
"It's easy to talk about the official journey, child, officialdom is not as simple as you think, it's not that your father can be promoted if he wants to." Xie Yijiang was so amused by her words that he couldn't laugh or cry.
Pei Xie Tang chuckled: "Opportunities, always for those who are ready, as long as Dad wants to go up, there will always be a way." ”
"Who doesn't want to go one step further? But if you want your father to climb by relying on her daughter, your father will never do it! Xie Yijiang misunderstood what she meant, and thought that she was letting herself go up by relying on the relationship of the East Palace, and couldn't help but be a little angry: "Xie Yijiang doesn't do the dirty thing of selling his daughter, and this matter is not allowed to be mentioned!" ”
"Is Dad not confident in himself?" Pei Xie Tang was not annoyed, and coquettishly hugged Xie Yijiang's palm: "In my daughter's heart, my father is the most capable, even if I don't rely on anyone, one day, my father can become the pillar of the court!" ”
There is an undisguised adoration for his father in his eyes, which is shiny and makes people's hearts happy.
Xie Yijiang amused her happily, looked back at her daughter, and in her memory, her daughter was still a little bit under her knees, and she also looked at herself with such respectful eyes. Suddenly, Xie Yijiang seemed to have regained the kind of pride he had before, and he felt that he had a sharp edge and motivation in his chest. He couldn't help but touch his daughter's hair and said lovingly: "Dad promised you, Dad will try to be an example and backer for you and your second sister, as long as Dad is there for a day, Dad will protect you and never let anyone bully you!" ”
They are all his daughters, they are all married to the prince, he is not old and confused, he understands in his heart that the royal family likes to weigh the value of women the most, which woman the royal family marries, there are very few who only value beauty and temperament, and what they see is the power and in-laws behind that woman. As long as he is in one day and his status is unshakable, his daughters will not be bullied by the royal family who shouts and kneels.
Thinking of this, Xie Yijiang suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy!
For a moment, his eyes bloomed, and there was a radiant look.
When Xie Feifei entered the main hall, he saw the appearance of the father and daughter relying on each other, and immediately felt embarrassed by being slapped in the face.
Today is a good day for her to be hired, but her father cares very little about her, and now it seems that her father is the most reluctant in his heart, and it is still Xie Chengyin, a waste.
In the past, Dad liked her the most, but now, all of Daddy's care was taken away by Xie Chengyin!
This person ruined her life and forced her to come to this point, which is really hateful!
No, you can't be angry!
Today is a good day for her, she must not offend the crown princess, and when she enters the East Palace in the future, she can't make enemies, she has to be a man with her tail between her legs, waiting for the day when she can turn over.
Xie Feifei adjusted his mood and entered the main hall with a smile: "Thank you Dad for taking a break for his daughter, thank you to the third sister for giving me a phoenix crown, and specially buy clothes for me." ”
"Here we are." Xie Yijiang sat down, and when he saw Xie Feifei, his heart was on fire, but after all, he thought that she was also a victim, and he couldn't bear to make his daughter sad, so he squeezed out a smile: "You sit down, when you see the princess later, will you have any etiquette?" ”
"My daughter remembers." Xie Feifei nodded, and only after sitting down did he ask: "Dad, after the crown princess comes to be hired, will her daughter follow her into the East Palace?" ”
"It's not so urgent, even if it's a concubine, the marriage book will be sent, and the marriage book will have a date that meets the birthday of you and the prince, and when the day comes, you will enter the East Palace again, which will be good for you and the crown princess." Xie Yijiang said: "What day this day is, my father doesn't know now. ”
Xie Feifei sighed, lowered his head and stirred his fingers uneasily.
She had an ominous premonition in her heart, and she always felt that things were not so simple, and she couldn't help but be a little anxious. The day on the wedding book can only enter the East Palace, but if the good days and auspicious days are not good, the good days according to the birth date will be a few years later, and she will have to wait until a few years later to go to the East Palace, and the daylilies will be cold!
Pei Xie Tang saw her expression, and couldn't help but want to laugh.
She said with a smile: "The second sister doesn't have to worry, even if the good days can't be ranked for a year or two, for the sake of favor, she will pick up the auspicious days to welcome people into the East Palace, otherwise, if you hire a girl, you will never marry like anything." ”
Urgent?
Can't wait to marry the prince?
Xie Yijiang's face sank suddenly: "Don't worry about it, there will always be a good time." ”
"I'm not in a hurry." Xie Feifei was scolded by Xie Yijiang when she said that she broke her heart, and she couldn't help but raise her eyes and glared at Pei Xie Tang.
Pei Xie Tang smiled but did not speak.
As he was talking, the sound of suona at the door came into people's ears one after another. There was a bustle on the periphery, and it was obvious that the people who came were very eye-catching. Pei Xie Tang had heard such a suona sound three times, and as soon as he heard it, he knew that it was someone from the East Palace.
Xie Yijiang also quickly stood up, straightened his clothes, and stood at the door of the main hall with his two daughters and two aunts.
"Congratulations, congratulations, Lord Xie—"
"Great joy!"
The two matchmakers took the lead in the door, and as soon as they entered the door, they congratulated Xie Yijiang on his blessing, his white fat face was full of smiles, and he said festive words in a stack: "Master Xie is so blessed, I have only gone through this time, the last time I came was to tell the third lady about the marriage of Huai'an Palace, this time again, our second miss is also very happy." The prince fell in love with the second lady at a glance, and the princess personally came to propose a marriage and welcome the second lady into the East Palace! ”
"Yes, Lord Xie, a pair of daughters are married into the royal family, this blessing is envied by others!"
Xie Yijiang arched his hand: "Thank you two matchmakers, please inside!" ”
The two matchmakers laughed together, and when they stood still at the door, they heard the next person raise their voices and say, "The princess of the East Palace has arrived-"
As soon as the words fell, a slender and gorgeous woman slowly walked in from the gate of the Xie family, she was wearing a red palace dress and her temples were high. shrugged, Danfeng's eyes swept the people in the room slightly, and then he evoked a thin smile, with a little contempt, the noble temperament of the royal family seemed to be deliberately revealed, and there was a sense of oppression all over his body.
This is the Crown Princess Wei.
Behind her were two beautiful women, both of whom Pei Xie Tang recognized.
The one on the left is slightly older, about twenty-four or five, wearing a blue palace dress, combing a dignified peony bun, with a bright moon in his ears, looking forward to the brilliance while walking, he is a first-class beauty, this is the concubine Chen of the East Palace.
The one on the right is a little younger, only seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a delicate new green palace dress, with very white skin, a pair of round eyes, with a bit of innocence that does not understand the world, this is the side concubine Qu of the East Palace, is the daughter of the Qu family's clan, counting, Tongqu Yanming is a cousin.
Behind the two side concubines, there were still five or six beautiful girls, fat and thin, each with its own merits, some Pei Xie Tang couldn't recognize their names, and some had never seen them directly, they should all be women from the East Palace.
