Chapter 3 The prince wants to marry me
I consoled myself with this.
.......
The next morning, I got up and freshened up, and was about to go for a walk in the yard, when I saw the housekeeper hurrying over, and I asked, "Butler, do you have something to do with me?" "
"Miss, the lord asked you to pack up quickly and go to the front hall for a banquet within a stick of incense."
"Going to a feast?" I'm a little surprised, what is Daddy going to do? Is it because of last night's letter?
"Yes."
I think about it, go back to the house, get a dress to change into, and head out with Fluttershy.
As soon as we stepped into the lobby, we saw my father sitting on the first seat, and next to him stood a burly middle-aged man, wearing a wide-sleeved tunic with purple and black trim, a jade pendant tied around his waist, and a jade plaque hanging on his chest, he should be an official, I guess.
"Daddy, I'm late." I saluted my father, and then raised my eyes to look at the middle-aged man opposite, who looked about forty or fifty years old, with dark skin, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and deep eyes, and seemed to have a great aura.
"Ah Rou, come here." My dad gestured to the empty seat to his right.
"Daddy, you call me?" I walked to my dad's designated place and sat on my dad's left side.
My father stretched out his hand and touched my head, and then said, "Ah Rou, this is Gonggong Li by the emperor's side, and I have seen Gonggong Li." "
Hearing my father's words, I hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "People's daughter Lu Wenrou, knock to see Gonggong Li." "
"Hahaha......" Gonggong Li smiled heartily: "Miss Lu, you don't have to be restrained, get up quickly." "
"Father-in-law Xie Li."
I stood up, and then raised my head to look at Gonggong Li, Gonggong Li's eyes lit up when he saw me, and then he showed an appreciative gaze: "Miss Lu is really beautiful and fragrant, no wonder His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so concerned, Miss Lu, the emperor has a will to convey to Master Lu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now past the age of the crown, and the emperor decided to choose a virtuous and gentle, knowledgeable, and talented woman for him as his wife." "
Gonggong Li said this, looking at me, "I don't know if Miss Lu is willing to marry His Royal Highness the Crown Prince as the crown princess?" "
When I heard this, my head suddenly exploded, I couldn't believe my ears, the emperor actually wanted the prince to marry me?
I was a little frightened, and quickly shook my head: "No, I ....... I can't marry him......"
"Oh? Miss Lu, why can't you get married? "
"Daddy, a daughter can't marry someone she doesn't like."
"Oh? Dislike? Do you have any prejudices against His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? "
".......No," I whispered, but I felt very uncomfortable.
"Since Miss Lu doesn't like His Royal Highness the Prince, why can't you marry? Miss Lu, please forgive the old man for saying bluntly, your marriage with His Royal Highness the Prince, but the royal family gives the marriage, if Miss Lu is unwilling, it is a rebellion, the so-called destiny is difficult to violate, it is better for Miss Lu to allow it, otherwise it is a rebellion, and at worst, it is the sin of the nine clans! ”
I listened to Father-in-law Li's words, and my heart was even more panicked, my father worked too hard for me, and I couldn't harm the Lu Mansion because of myself, in fact, there was nothing wrong with marrying the prince, if he became the emperor in the future, then I would be the queen of the world.
I kept my head down and didn't say a word.
Seeing that I was silent, Gonggong Li thought that I had agreed, and continued to persuade: "The emperor has given me a marriage, and the holy decree has been issued, how can the face of the royal family be easily discarded?" So Miss Lu, you still agree, if you don't want to, then forget it, the old man will leave. "
"I....... I promise. "
I heard myself say that.
Seeing this, Gonggong Li smiled and said, "Miss Lu agreed happily, and the old man was relieved." "
Gonggong Li turned his head to look at my father: "Master Lu, the emperor has given the marriage, and the wedding will be held in a month, so you can prepare for the wedding as soon as possible, and the old slave will retire first." "
When my dad saw that my dad agreed, his face immediately filled with smiles, "Thank you Grandpa Li, Grandpa Li walks slowly." "
"Congratulations to Grandpa Li."
When Gonggong Li left, my father looked at me: "Ah Rou, do you really promise the emperor to become the wife of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" "
"Well, my daughter does."
"Okay, I'll go to the matchmaker to discuss the marriage date, in fact, there is nothing wrong with marrying the prince, it's just ......" my father said with a frown.
"Daddy, what's wrong with the prince?" I asked, confused.
"I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a bad temper, I'm afraid that you will have a hard time marrying in the past!"
I listened to my father's words and smiled, "Father, I'm an adult, and I have my own measure. "
"But......." My father still hesitated.
"Daddy, just do what your daughter says, no matter whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is good or not, as long as her daughter marries, she will have the support of her mother's family in the future, and her daughter doesn't have to worry."
My father saw that I was firm, and finally helpless, and nodded: "That's it, you decide for yourself, I don't force you, but you must know that you can't suffer any grievances." "
I looked at my dad and was a little moved.
"My daughter understands."
.......
The marriage went well, and because of the help of Father-in-law Li, the wedding date was set for a month later.
A month later, the wedding took place at the Prince's Palace.
The wedding banquet is set in the southeast corner of the Prince's Mansion, and the entire Prince's Mansion is shrouded in a festive atmosphere, and every view of the Prince's Mansion is amazing.
At the banquet, the eyes of many young ladies were focused on the prince sitting at the top, the handsome face, the elegant temperament, he was dressed in red, he looked more cold under the red light, coupled with the noble bloodline, so that many daughters secretly agreed, eager to fly over, and talk to him a few words, but because of the majesty of the prince, no girl dared to come forward to talk.
Fluttershy and a few maids put on a phoenix crest and a festive green wedding dress for me, and I looked at myself as I stood in front of the bronze mirror.
This is the phoenix crown that the emperor gave me to marry, the phoenix is lifelike, the golden silk thread outlines the gorgeous pattern, and the embroidery is exquisite.
The gold thread on the wedding dress is also made of high-quality silk, which is very comfortable to wear, and not only that, but this phoenix crown is inlaid with countless gems and pearls, which looks extraordinarily luxurious.
I saw myself in the mirror, my cheeks were slightly red, my eyes were evasive, and I looked shy and delicate.
Fluttershy looked at me and smiled, "Miss, you're so pretty!" "
Fluttershy is the maid who serves me closely, and will follow me to marry the prince's mansion in the future, the sedan chair has been waiting outside for a long time, today is the prince's wife, so many people came to watch the excitement, I covered my face with a fan, and slowly got on the sedan chair with Fluttershy's support.
Our sedan chair drove slowly on the street, and the people on both sides clapped their hands and applauded.
"Wow, that's the royal phoenix! That's the royal phoenix, so beautiful! "
"That's the crown princess, so beautiful!"
"It's so beautiful.......
"......."
