Preparing for the wedding

Eating melons is a pleasant thing, and there are many, many things that happen every day in this world, and quite a few of them are very interesting and worth gossiping.

But when the melons were smashed one after another, and some of them might have something to do with them, so that they couldn't eat them, the people who ate the melons were stunned.

The people of Kyoto are like this, the imperial court first officially announced the reasons for the various unrest in Kyoto during this time: the rebellion of King Ning, and then announced the end of the turmoil, exploiting all the actual power of King Ning, including political, economic and military, and retaining his treatment, although he is still King Ning, but except for the people in his Ning Palace, he can no longer mobilize a single soldier, and the territory that originally belonged to him is also collected, and the county order will be re-sent to manage it, and there is no need to be restricted by King Ning.

Before Mo Lan and Yue Zhengdao, the unjust case taken over by Yue Zhengdao also came to light, and the verdict was made by the emperor himself: the Chen family is guilty, Chen Shi started his family for smuggling, and worked hard for King Ning. It is not a matter of doing evil and doing good deeds that can be written off, the local officials handled it correctly, but it is a big mistake to take the confiscated family property as their own, and even want to do dirty things. Chen Dao, the son of Chen Shi, should have been beheaded because of the law of force and disorder, and did not distinguish between right and wrong, but the circumstances of this case were special, and because of the dereliction of duty of the people in the government, the sentence was changed to a severe punishment, and he must not commit it again in the future, otherwise he will not be spared.

In fact, Chen Shi helped King Ning to sell human beings, but it was not good to say it bluntly, so what the emperor said was more obscure.

In general, it is: King Ning's era is over, he is now a canary trapped in a cage, he no longer has the ability to stir up the wind and rain, his henchmen are all ambushed, the court has carried out a wave of blood changes, there will be no such chaos in the future, you can continue to live in peace and live with confidence.

Such a thing is naturally to be blown, and the people who eat melons have praised it, of course, this is a small part of them who can't hold their breath, most people look at this long list, and faintly feel that something is not right, the first news is so exciting, what is going to be said later?

The more they looked, the more shocked they became, and it is no exaggeration to say that they were shocked, and it is not an exaggeration to say that changing the year name is a routine operation, but the reason why you change the year name is ...... It's the empress who is on the throne, well, it doesn't matter if it's the reason for the change of the era name, who will explain why after a turmoil, their beloved monarch became a woman?

By the time they finished reading the entire list, they were speechless, and their minds were full of: Who am I, where am I, am I not awake yet, am I crazy or the world is crazy?

Then they immediately left the blocked almost impenetrable list post point, and returned to the gossip point where they often went to complain wildly, and the atmosphere of the entire Kyoto was detonated for a while, coupled with the gossip that came out from time to time that I don't know whether it was true or not, almost everyone was in high spirits, and even had no intention of working, just wanted to know more and more information, and it didn't matter whether it was true or not, after all, a lot of the information posted by the imperial court didn't seem to be true, this can be believed, what else can't be believed?

After a day or two, this heat finally slowly fell, and when the people's excited mood slowly recovered, another bombshell hit: the previous news about Jun Yishen, Qian Quanlin and Yue Zhengdao being named barons was true, and the new baron Yue Zhengdao went to the Chen Mansion openly, with gifts, and the people of the Chen Mansion happily welcomed him in......

Ha?

Everyone who hears the news has a question mark on their faces?

"Isn't the Chen family the one who was escaped by Yue Zhengdao before? They were all humiliated like that, and if they saw jokes, they could still give Yue Zhengdao a good look? If I was left alone, I couldn't bear it. "The melon-eating crowd whispered bb.

"Is this the point?" The melon-eating crowd glanced at him obliquely, and said disdainfully: "It's just to put you aside, how dare you do to Yue Zhengdao? If you can't bear it, you have to endure it, you look at the eyes of Yue Zhengdao, this time he has made a great contribution, and he is stunned to be knighted with Lord Jun and Lord Qian, or the same title, what is this concept? You must know that Lord Jun was his best friend before, and this time it seems that he fought side by side with Lord Qian, and even fought together at the previous celebration banquet, what is this concept? If Lord Qian is also a close friend with him, in this East China Sea, as long as he doesn't make fatal mistakes, which person and which force dares to touch him Yue Zhengdao, and the Yue family has a finger?"

The words of the melon-eating crowd B are not unreasonable, the situation is stronger than people, if this is the case, the Chen family is really difficult to deal with. Whether it's closed doors or cynicism like last time, it's not okay, because at this time, Yue Zhengdao is in the limelight, even if he meets someone who doesn't have the right eye for him, he doesn't dare to say anything inappropriate, slapping him in the face may be slapping the face of the two bigwigs of Jun Qian, or even the emperor's face, judging from this big reform, this East China Sea is not chaotic, what to do, I'm afraid it's not the emperor alone, since that's the case, then who she insists on killing, I'm afraid no one can stop it, so who dares to make the emperor unhappy?

"But didn't Yue Zhengdao come to the door once with a gift before? It seems to be related to family affairs. The melon-eating crowd opened his mouth and was a little puzzled.

With his casual words, the scene fell silent, and everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look at him, because they also remembered this incident. Yue Zhengdao knelt down and begged to see the head of the Chen family, next to him stood the head of the Yue family and a bunch of gifts, and later even Jun Yishen went, many people speculated that the two families may still have made a family relationship, but even if Yue Zhengdao left later, he didn't see the two families show some rumors, the matchmaker came to the door to say goodbye to the daughter of the Chen family, and the two of the Chen family did not refuse, chatting with the matchmaker seriously, although in the end they also rejected others, but this ...... It's not like a marriage contract, if it's not decided, why accept a gift from someone, it's not in accordance with the rules.

Does this answer come to light now? What kind of agreement did the Chen family have with the Yue family, even if it wasn't a marriage contract at that time, it should be now, right? No matter how many friends you Yue Zhengdao makes, you and the Chen family patriarch are always close friends who have to visit the door after a period of separation, right? At this time, how do you think about it and feel strange when you come to the door with a gift?

As they expected, a day or two after the celebration banquet, Yue Zhengdao went to visit the Chen family patriarch with gifts, and this time he was fully prepared.

"Uncle Chen, I'm here, I haven't seen you for a long time, you're still the same. Yue Zhengdao was very relaxed and talked to Patriarch Chen, not frivolous or nervous, and his mature and steady feeling was immediately revealed.

"It's not as good as you young people, it's been a hard trip. Patriarch Chen also replied easily, he already knew the intention of this guy, just to see his reaction. It seems immature too early, and it doesn't seem to care about his daughter too late, and now it's a very accurate time.

"Haha, it's really not easy, but fortunately, things are done, and the emperor doesn't blame anything, this is lucky. Yue Zhengdao smiled and continued to advance the topic.

"I have heard of your heroism, you young men, you seem unreliable, and it is really impressive when something happens. Patriarch Chen was a little embarrassed.

"Where, Uncle Chen's praise like this, I can't stand it. Yue Zhengdao was humble for a moment, and then got to the point: "I wonder if Uncle Chen still remembers our agreement before?"

"Of course, so you're here to do this this time?" Patriarch Chen didn't play pretentiously, and asked directly.

"Well, I remember saying that this matter was to be kept secret from her first, so can I ask her opinion first? If she agrees, we will discuss the marriage, if not, then give me a chance, let me meet her, and we will talk before we decide. Yue Zhengdao nodded, but what he said made Patriarch Chen stunned for a moment, glanced at Mrs. Chen, and nodded secretly.

They thought that Yue Zhengdao would directly say that we decided the marriage and something like that, but they didn't expect him to mention his daughter's thoughts first, and the last sentence of "make a decision again" is worth playing, leaving room for "he said that he disobeyed his daughter's words, and the marriage was canceled", which was not domineering and could not be refused, it can be seen that he really cares about her as a person, not anything else.

"This matter, the little girl already knows, although it is very common to accept the dowry and not allow relatives, but the Chen family is still the first time to accept the dowry, she was curious to find out about your coming to the Chen family, she was taken aback, ran over and asked us what the situation was, the two of us couldn't resist her, so we told her about it, and she agreed to marry you. Patriarch Chen thought about it for a moment and told the truth about it.

"That's very good. Yue Zhengdao clenched his fists, happy but controlled himself not to shout loudly, and then began to discuss with the two relatives of the Chen family.

He was well prepared, including the day suitable for the two to get married, and he also asked a master in this area to calculate, the most recent was five days later, but he chose the most suitable day, which was half a month later. Wedding dress or something, Yue Zhengdao has already asked people to start preparing, the cloth and everything are woven, just measure the size of the bride to tailor and make jewelry, there is money to make the ghost grind, half a month is more than enough.

Yue Zhengdao is also very familiar with the various processes of discussing relatives, and it is obvious that he has put a lot of effort into it, and the two Chen family members can remember the things they don't remember, and they are arranged properly, no wonder the head of the Yue family can't come, Yue Zhengdao handles it very well.

"The scale of the wedding is the largest pomp under the national wedding, the Yue family can afford this card, and they can't wronged her anymore. As for the guests, there are too many people to invite, in this regard, I asked people to draw up a roster, and send it back to the Chen family, if you think I should add someone, add it, and then send an invitation card to determine the number of people who can come, and then arrange the table, how about it?" Yue Zhengdao's words made the Chen family patriarch surprised again, and then he was relieved, the Yue family entrusted Yue Zhengdao's blessing, and was favored by the emperor, so he naturally did such a remarkable thing, and it was normal to make the wedding so large.

The state wedding in the East China Sea refers to the wedding of the emperor and the empress, which is rarely held, because the emperor generally has the crown princess when he is the prince, and it is impossible to hold a wedding again, but the current emperor is obviously an exception, she is going to hold a state wedding, so it is a bit too big for anyone to have a wedding before that...... Square peg.

"Don't worry, I've discussed this with the emperor, and I've borrowed a few adults from the Ministry of Rites to help arrange it, so there shouldn't be any chaos. Yue Zhengdao thought that they had concerns, so he explained.

"That's good. Patriarch Chen didn't say much, because he was sour, and he borrowed someone from the Ministry of Rites to help arrange the wedding, what kind of face is this?

What he didn't know was ...... The emperor just wants to take this opportunity to sharpen those people in the Ministry of Rites, so that nothing can go wrong at his wedding in the future, otherwise he will not be able to repay even if he pulls them out and cuts off his head.

Yes, Yue Zhengdao is a guinea pig, the kind of guinea pig that is used for experiments.

As the last thing was also finalized, Yue Zhengdao said goodbye and left, and only after returning to Yue's house did he touch his heartbeat, telling himself that this was all true, she agreed to marry herself, marry herself who didn't seem reliable at all, she was about to get married, and someone was going to accompany him to the morning and twilight, grow old together, and walk together for the rest of his life!

Yue Zhengdao's excitement wanted to explode when he was in the Chen family, but he was restrained, Shangguan Yi was right, only when he appeared mature and stable would he be reassured, and he could not fall short.

But he actually has some regrets, if she doesn't want to, he can see her, listen to her, he hasn't seen her yet, and he only has this opportunity to see before he gets married, but he still hasn't seen her.

According to the custom here, once the date of marriage is set, men and women are not allowed to see each other, otherwise they will not be blessed, and their reputation is not good, Yue Zhengdao has worked hard for so long, and it is naturally impossible to make things bad again, so he can only be patient, even if he is itchy and unbearable, he must not break the precepts.

With the determination of the family affair, on the second day when the people who eat melons speculated, this matter was also hammered by the Yue family and the Chen family. The grand to the emperor decided to attend in person, Jun Yishen and Qian Quanlin and other officialdom bigwigs also said that they wanted to come to join in the fun, which immediately caused a chain reaction.

No way, this may be one of the biggest events since the emperor ascended the throne, the ancestor parade does not count, it is a state affair, this is a private matter, even if it is the emperor, the officials are also here in a private capacity. But there is no difference, it still shook everyone in Kyoto, this pomp is really enough, even if someone wants to talk about Yue Zhengdao's escape from marriage before, they don't have the courage, not to mention that they also gave an official statement: go to find a dowry for the bride. If anyone holds on to it any longer, it will be Tie Hanhan who is looking for discomfort.

This large-scale wedding, which almost everyone expected, began to prepare vigorously, and it also dyed a lot of joy for Kyoto.
