Chapter 312: Let the queen come to see me

"The first time we've been married... Aren't you a little nervous?" Jiang Li looked at Ning Chen, who was fidgeting beside him, and said with a smile.

"It's false to say it's not nervous. Ning Chen spread his hands: "I don't understand anything." ”

"Coincidentally. Jiang Li also followed with a smile: "Lao Tzu doesn't understand either." ”

Ning Chen smiled, although it was his first time, but his father-in-law... Until now, he is still a single dog.

"Although everything that says the three books and six rituals is simple, but looking at the process on the list, I am afraid that it will also tire people into dogs. Although Ning Chen was complaining, the expectations that flashed from time to time had already slightly exposed his thoughts.

"It's strange to say. Ning Chen leaned lightly in front of the door and said to Jiang Li: "Today, let's wait here for the dowry in the palace... But I don't remember when my father-in-law gave a dowry~"

"Naturally, it's that Tianshan Snow Lotus, do you think it's easy for Lao Tzu to marry you a daughter-in-law? I almost lost my life~" Jiang Li waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's just that now Yao'er has transformed into a princess named by His Majesty... There is your boy who will receive it later. ”

"Crackling. ”

"Knock Knock Qiang ~ Knock Knock Qiang ~ Knock T

The sound of firecrackers and the sound of gongs and drums resounded throughout Anning Street.

Anning Street is a high-end villa area in Jinling, and those who can come here to open a mansion are far from enough to have money, the important thing is to have power.

The people here have long known that there will be dowries sent to the Ning Mansion in the palace today, and they will more or less poke out to see... After all, the amount and preciousness of the dowry largely represent the importance that the palace attaches to Ning Chen, as well as Xia Yao's status in the heart of the queen.

The queen already knew Xia Yao's life experience, although she was quite ashamed that Jiang Li used a Tianshan Snow Lotus as a dowry to set Yao'er's life experience, but she also knew that this was the fate of her parents.

The queen mother thought that the Tianshan Snow Lotus was not a strange thing, and said to Xia Yao: "Jiang Li used one Tianshan Snow Lotus as a dowry, and the mother crushed him with ten!"

The queen is not clear about these things, but the emperor knows, after all, he has been wandering the rivers and lakes for a while.

When the queen told him that she wanted ten Tianshan snow lotus as a dowry, the emperor's face was as ugly as constipation~

almost made the emperor say: "Do you think the Tianshan Snow Lotus is Chinese cabbage?"

"I can't get it. The emperor shook his head and said to the queen: "This thing is hard to find, even if you are willing to buy it at a high price, someone has to sell it~"

There is no market.

"Precious?" the queen was puzzled.

"yes. The emperor nodded, stretched out one of his palms, and said to the empress, "The number is not necessarily more than five. ”

"It's a pity that this thing wasn't picked up by Ning Chen himself. The queen said with some disappointment: "Otherwise, it will be a good story of a couple of newcomers." ”

Fortunately, Xia Yao just had the mentality of listening to the queen's arrogant words, otherwise the queen would be ashamed.

But even so, the queen mother still found ten things that were no less than the Tianshan Snow Lotus as a dowry.

A pair of scissors, this scissors is unusual, one side is dragon-shaped, the other side is phoenix-shaped, and the two pieces of bite symbolize the combination of dragon and phoenix. It was specially ordered by the queen's mother to be built by the craftsmen in the palace, and it is the only one in the world.

If it is just like this, it does not reflect that this scissors have any qualifications to be compared with Tianshan Snow Lotus, but the queen's words make this scissors surpass Tianshan Snow Lotus in a sense.

"See this scissors, such as seeing this palace. ”

And specially sent someone to inform Ning Chen, if you dare to bully Xia Yao, let Xia Yao cut off your descendants~~

When Ning Chen saw this half-human-tall golden scissors, his heart was cold... Needless to say, the roots of the children and grandchildren can be cut off~

With the queen in the palace as a backer, I am afraid that I will be crushed in the future!

Then, there is a set of three pieces, called the Descendants Bucket.

It is a three-piece set of jadeite in the Western Regions, the toilet made of topaz jade is called the treasure bucket of descendants, which means that children are born early, healthy and intelligent; the foot basin made of white jade jade is called the treasure pot of blessing, which means health and abundance; the bucket made of wall jade jade is called the treasure bucket of wealth, which means that diligence and progress and career success.

Although they are only the size of a palm, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this thing is priceless.

The fifth piece is that this Yueyang's fief is Xia Yao's food estate, and when other people's families send it, they all symbolically send a ruler, implying that the fertile land is ten thousand hectares, and the emperor waved his hand and counted the entire Yueyang as Xia Yao's fief, which alone has exceeded the actual value of Tianshan Snow Lotus.

The next thing is different, although it looks like just ordinary red dates, peanuts, longan, and lotus seeds.

But these things are all the best medicines that Gu Jin dedicated to the imperial court, and the red dates are called Shanyang dates, and taking one can keep them alive for three years;

Peanuts are not ordinary, they are called intimate pills, and after people eat them, they will enter a three-month dormancy, during which they are like dead people;

Longan is called a life-sustaining pill, and even if it is a dying person, he can live for another three days after taking it;

The lotus seed is the most important of them, and there is no special name, and it only has the effect of three hours after taking it, but within these three hours, it will burst out with ten times the power far beyond its own strength.

But after three hours, the martial arts will be wasted, and although they will not die, they will be like wasters.

Of course, the original meaning of these things is to give birth to a noble son early.

The good things in the palace really can't be underestimated... Ning Chen looked at the four things in front of him with a burst of surprise, knowing which one was put on the rivers and lakes would set off a bloody storm.

This last set opened Ning Chen's eyes, large and small boxes lined up on both sides of the street, and there was a very standard maid on the side of each box, Ning Chen roughly counted... Niang, there are more than 100 maids.

In the same way, there are more than 100 dowries in the back.

"Lord Ning. At this time, the "makeup officer" who was responsible for escorting the dowry said to Ning Chen: "The last set is this 'ten miles of red makeup'." ”

"I said Master Hou. Ning Chen gently pulled the "makeup officer" over a little, and asked, "Isn't this too exaggerated?"

This makeup officer is none other than the emperor's son who passed from the knee of another brother, named Zhu Lingyun.

He was not qualified to inherit the throne, and was made a Marquis of Xiao by the emperor, and now he is doing things in Hulong Villa.

At the moment, I also caught a strong man.

"Not an exaggeration. Xiao Hou said to Ning Chen: "The queen mother still thinks that she has given too little." ”

Although Marquis Xiao also called the queen mother his mother, he was only succeeded to the emperor's knee after all... He only recognized his father, but not his mother.

"I said, we're about the same age. Xiao Hou looked at Ning Chen and said, "Plus Yao'er is also my sister now, and we will be a family from now on." ”

"Uh-huh, it's nature. Ning Chen nodded, otherwise what else could he say?

"I'm afraid that something will be asked of you in the future, and you must not refuse. Xiao Hou said again.

"If it is within my ability, I will not refuse. Ning Chen nodded and said, but the words were not full.

After a while of greetings, Xiao Hou left the Ning Mansion.

"This dowry... It always makes me think I'm a poor bastard. Ning Chen looked at the sky helplessly.

In fact, is Ning Chen very poor now?

No, Ning Chen's wealth comes from two places, one is the transportation of Poyang Lake, and the other is the maritime business of Poison Ling Island~~

But when it comes to the dowry in front of him, even if Ning Chen is a rich man now, even if he is bankrupt, I am afraid he will not be able to collect these things.

The palace is a royal palace after all.

"What about this dowry?" Ning Chen asked as he watched Jiang Li come out of the mansion.

"It's all been shown. Jiang Li sighed lightly, and then said, "Naturally, I want to move back." ”

"Do you feel like you've been crushed?" Jiang Li asked as he looked at Ning Chen.

"Hmm. Ning Chen did not refute and generously admitted.

"In fact, this also means that the queen really likes Yao'er, and Your Majesty really likes you. Jiang Li said to Ning Chen.

"I know all of that. Ning Chen shook his head helplessly, and continued: "But I always feel that I have to act like this, it feels weird." ”

"Forget it. Ning Chen didn't wait for Jiang Li to speak, and suddenly smiled: "Besides, this is a good thing, how can there be any reason to turn it away?"

Ning Chen commanded everyone to carry things into the mansion one by one.

I thought that these maids were just for decoration, but when Ning Chen asked them to go back, they learned that this was one of the dowries given by the queen mother to Yao'er, a total of one hundred and twenty-eight.

When the mansion is bigger, there will be more people who use it, and Ning Chen will take it all.

After all, she is a maid from the palace, and she looks like a peugeot, not to mention, she knows the rules.

There may be some two-hearted people in it, but Ning Chen doesn't care, the future is long, and the other one is afraid of provoking the queen, after all, this is what she rewards.

The rest of the people in the mansion also roughly understood something, and returned to their homes one after another, put away the gifts that had been prepared, and instructed their powerful cronies to prepare more sincere gifts.

Ning Chen is not ordinary, and the one named Xia Yao is even more unusual.

The dowry is for the woman's mother-in-law's family to use, but now there is an advantage that makes the queen feel slightly relieved, that is, Ning Chen himself is an orphan and has no parents, and the so-called dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law does not exist here in Xia Yao.

The empress had also heard some things about Ning Chen's father from the emperor, and she was quite sympathetic to what happened to this child.

At the same time, he was very interested in Ning Buzheng, who had not had the opportunity to meet him.

In the memory of the empress, there are few people who can make the emperor unforgettable, and Ning Buzheng is one of them.

Xia Yao sat in front of a mirror, and a mother-in-law was combing her hair with a comb.

I heard my mother say that this mother-in-law is a combing mother, who specializes in combing the hair of the girl she marries.

"One comb to the end, two combs to the white hair to the eyebrows, three combs to the children and grandchildren, four combs to the four silver shoots are all marked. The mother-in-law suddenly shouted out this sentence, which made Xia Yao tremble.

After a while, Xia Yao had already begun to enjoy the process and closed her eyes.

It seems that he is looking forward to his future days.

"Are you going to get married tomorrow?" Xia Yao's face showed a hint of blush, because these days the queen mother had discovered that Xia Yao didn't know anything about things between men and women.

He personally trained and taught Xia Yao this knowledge from beginning to end.

Sometimes, in addition to words, you may also need to use example.

"Ning Chen, a little bastard, also knows some rules. The queen thought secretly in her heart.

After all, the two of them were in the same room before, so the queen couldn't worry.

At the moment, Xia Yao probably thought of some indescribable things~

Ning Chen on the other side.

also had the same experience, but Ning Chen already knew the process in advance, and was not startled by the comb mother's sudden singing.

"Mother-in-law Gui Geng. Ning Chen was chatting with him instead.

"Five out of forty. The mother-in-law chuckled.

Those who can be a combing mother-in-law are particular, and they need all six relatives, and a mother-in-law with children and grandchildren is too good.

The so-called six relatives are father, mother, brother, brother, wife, and son.

It's an auspicious thing.

At ten o'clock at noon, another palace maid came to Ning Mansion with a group of people.

The leader is Azhu, who met last time.

"Miss Azhu is here to warm the house?" is responsible for receiving the Lingsu who was born in the teaching workshop.

"yes. Ah Zhu smiled lightly and said, "This is Sister Lingsu?"

"Do you recognize me?" Lingsu was a little surprised.

"The princess often talks about her sister. Azhu chuckled.

Lingsu and the four little girls also moved from Beppu to Ningfu, and at the same time there were the original team of Beppu, as for Beppu... Jiang Li sent some people to take care of it again.

The new house has been prepared, just simple furnishings, just waiting for Azhu to decorate.

The next day, with the sound of firecrackers, Ning Chen rode a high-headed horse and prepared a sedan chair to greet his relatives.

Every time I pass through some important places, I will also scatter some copper plates or broken silver.

Ning Chen's welcoming team would definitely not be able to enter the palace, let alone the Zhiluo Palace where the queen's mother was located.

A palace outside the Royal Palace.

Xia Yao sat quietly inside, and in addition, the queen mother was always by her side.

The greeting procession has arrived.

It was very lively outside the palace, but Xia Yao was even more nervous, and the hands holding the queen mother were a little white.

"Yao'er, it's time to get on the sedan chair. "The queen mother is a person who has come over, so she naturally knows what Xia Yao should do right now.

After three urges from the bride, the queen called a princess who had been booked a long time ago, and was named Princess Qinghe.

Princess Qinghe carried a red paper umbrella and sent Xia Yao out of the door.

Although there was a red hijab on it, Xia Yao could still see something.

For example, Ning Chen, who had already dismounted and waited, and the eight-lift sedan chair behind him.

Xia Yao smoothly entered the sedan chair, keeping in mind the queen's instructions, never lift the red hijab~

Xia Yao's seat is placed under a fire with charcoal and spices, and a mat is tied to the rear sedan bar of the sedan chair, commonly known as "the fire in the sedan chair, the mat behind the sedan chair".

Ning Chen got on the horse and got up the sedan chair.

There was also a cannon shot outside the palace.

One of the guards ran into the emperor's ear and whispered something soft.

"Is there such a thing?" the emperor looked at the sedan chair that had just left, frowned slightly, and then said, "Let the queen come to see me." ”
