Chapter 189: Preparing for Marriage

There are a lot of things in Kyoto, and after Gu Yueke left after saying those words meaninglessly, the Lin family really began to act early the next morning to put pressure on the court, asking Emperor Sui not to ground the queen mother.

Emperor Sui lost his temper for a while at the beginning, and only after a few days did he relax his mouth and let Lin Yiran come out of the grounded state.

These things in Kyoto are not very likely to affect Liang Qian's side, and Liang Qian has been concentrating on preparing for his marriage in the past few days.

Liang Qian and Li Yu's marriage is scheduled for the middle of Puyue (May), and now it is late spring (March), there is not much time, and Liang Qian needs to prepare a lot of things.

At the end of mid-spring (February), the Liang family wrote from Qingzhou, saying that all the affairs in Qingzhou had been arranged, and the family was preparing to set off from Qingzhou to Kyoto.

It is estimated that it will take about a month, and at the end of spring (March), the Liang family will be able to arrive in Kyoto. Liang Qian's main thing these days is about his dowry and etiquette.

When the Great Sui got married, the etiquette was complicated, and the most important thing was to go through six processes.

The first is Nacai.

In the initial stage of marriage, the man proposes marriage through the matchmaker, the woman has a preliminary intention to propose marriage, and the man prepares gifts to go to the woman's house to propose.

The second is to ask for names.

The man entrusts the matchmaker to go to the woman's house to ask the woman's birth date, and the man prepares the divination marriage ceremony after getting it.

After that, ask for Najib.

After the husband gets married, he notifies the woman's parents of the good news in writing or orally, which is also called "engagement".

Najib will be hired after that.

The man sends the bride price to the woman's home, which is commonly known as the completion of the engagement. After the completion of the engagement, the woman usually returns part of the dowry or prepares another gift as a return gift to the man.

The marriage between Liang Qian and Li Yu was given by Emperor Sui, and the first three processes were more or less omitted, and only the gifts that needed to be completed in the last step were only needed.

These days, Liang Qian has been having a headache about these things.

There are also a lot of things that need to be paid attention to when returning gifts, Liang Qian now has a lot of good things on hand, and it is okay to make a good-looking return gift. It's just that what to put in this return to you still needs Liang Qian to think about it himself.

"Miss, Lord Liang is here!" When Liang Qian was having a headache about these things, Fei Xue pushed open the door and spread the word that Liang Eryi had come over.

Since Liang Eryi was born in the autumn of last year, Emperor Sui valued it, but he got a good position and stayed in Kyoto to serve.

Now that Liang Qian is preparing for marriage, Liang Eryi is naturally worried about it.

"You're having a headache on your wedding day again?" Liang Eryi just walked in the door, saw a large pile of books and account books in front of Liang Qian, and couldn't help but say: "I don't understand these things, my mother and they will go to Kyoto in a few days, and you can be more relaxed then!" ”

Liang Qian didn't think about it so much, and after standing up and pointing out the position to Liang Eryi, Liang Qian sat down by herself: "Actually, it's okay!" The princess always helps me worry about it, but there are some things that I still need to exercise myself! Is there something wrong with my brother coming over today? ”

Liang Eryi nodded: "Du Yuan, that kid called me over!" He said that Mrs. Du wants to help you take care of some things, and I am afraid that you will not agree, so let me come over and intercede with him! ”

Strictly speaking, Du Yuan and Li Yu are both reborn people, and the two of them should get closer to each other. In fact, when Du Yuan found Liang Eryi and asked Liang Eryi to intercede for him, Liang Eryi was a little surprised.

Du Yuan said that he had gone to find Li Yu, but Li Yu didn't agree! He wanted to find me to take a detour and ask me directly for your opinion! Liang Eryi didn't know why Li Yu disagreed, so he could only retell the conversation between the two people at that time.

Du Yuan was afraid that Liang Qian would worry about it, and wanted to directly let Liang Qian marry from the Du family, and Mrs. Du was also Liang Qian's elder, so it was reasonable to help Liang Qian handle the marriage.

The Du family's side has already passed the gas, just wait for Liang Qian and Li Yu to agree and let Liang Qian move over, but unfortunately when Du Yuan found Li Yu and talked about this matter, Li Yu refused without thinking about it.

"Actually, I don't understand why Li Yu refused," Liang Eryi looked at Liang Qian's worries these days, and he was also worried in his heart: "You and the Du family are related, and there doesn't seem to be anything bad about you marrying from there, and if Mrs. Du helps you handle it, you can worry a little less." As a result, Li Yu actually disagreed! I don't know what Li Yu has been thinking about all day long? Can't he see that you're so tired every day? ”

For this person who wants to marry his sister home, Liang Eryi is still very picky. If it weren't for the marriage given by the emperor, Liang Eryi would have wanted to stay with Liang Qian for a few more years before marrying Liang Qian.

Liang Qian looked at Liang Eryi and smiled with a dissatisfied look at Li Yu, and said, "Brother, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World has told me about this matter!" I don't agree with that in my heart! ”

"Why?" Liang Eryi was surprised when he heard this answer: "Could it be that kid Li Yu told you something not very good?" Don't listen to him like that, if you let him take eye medicine, it's easy to suffer! ”

"How so?" Liang Qian pouted dissatisfied: "His Royal Highness the Prince is not the kind of person you said, brother!" People are very angry, okay? How did you get this kind of eye medicine? It's you, brother, who now look like someone who gave me eye medicine! ”

Liang Eryi saw Liang Qian defending Li Yu like this, and he only felt panicked in his heart: "Then tell me, why do you want to reject the Du family's proposal?" Anyway, I think this proposal of the Du family is very good! ”

Liang Qian smiled, but explained.

When Emperor Sui gave Liang Qian and Li Yu a marriage, he gave a house, first, because Liang Qian made the county lord and fell out with the Yi family, so Emperor Sui gave him a house. Second, it is because Emperor Sui actually doesn't want Liang Qian to have any too deep relationships with other families in Kyoto again.

Du Yuan of the Du family participated in the Autumn Festival, and it was impossible for Emperor Sui not to know about this matter. Since Emperor Sui knew that according to Du Yuan's talent, it would be a matter of time before he passed the examination, and the Du family would definitely return to Kyoto because of this matter.

What's more, the news of the Du family was always known to Emperor Sui. Even if Du Yuan didn't plan to return to Kyoto with the Du family, Emperor Sui could have put Liang Qian directly on the side of the fief, how could he spend so much effort?

According to the relationship between Liang Qian and the Du family, Emperor Sui could directly let Liang Qian live in the Li Wangfu, or choose a smaller house and give it to Liang Qian. But the house given by Emperor Sui is next to King Li's mansion, and it is still a particularly good house, so the deep meaning needs others to think a little more.
