090:Prince Qi proposes to marry
The Chu family knew the news before the father and daughter returned home.
Because the betrothal gift from Prince Yu’s Mansion has already been delivered.
The gift-giver was Qing Feng, who was wearing new clothes and had an extraordinary temperament.
Because the people from Prince Yu's Mansion were carrying gifts, the queue was so long that it was endless and the momentum was huge. Many people wanted to see which family was getting married to which family, so they followed over to watch the excitement.
There were many people crowded at the gate of the Anyang Marquis Mansion, and the father and daughter's carriage almost couldn't get back. Qing Feng still had poisonous eyes, so he immediately ordered the black-armored guards to clear the way.
The father and daughter got out of the carriage and were surprised to see such a big battle.
"Greetings to the Marquis, and hello to Miss Sixth." Qingfeng saluted respectfully with a smile on his lips.
He personally handed the gift list to Nan Li and said, "This is the betrothal gift from the prince to Miss Chu Sixth."
When Nan Li opened it, her first reaction was that it was very long!
Yuanbao and Chunbao helped open the list, and saw a long list filled with various gifts and objects.
She was not an expert at settling accounts, so after just two glances, she felt dizzy.
Helpless, she looked at Qing Feng, "Do you need such a large betrothal gift?"
"Of course, the prince is the Prince of Jiuzhu, and he is also the general of Pingbei. This shows the prince's identity and also represents the importance the prince attaches to the sixth lady." Qing Feng said seriously.
I don't know since when, Qingfeng also identified Miss Sixth as the princess.
So when the prince was preparing these betrothal gifts, he also tried his best to help without hesitation.
When Chu Hanlin and Mr. Shen heard this, there was a smile on their faces.
As soon as Qingfeng raised his hand, a eunuch began to sing the ritual at the top of his voice:
"Fifty thousand taels of snowflake silver, ten thousand taels of gold, a pair of Ruyi gold inlaid with jade, a pair of white jade flower bottles, a box of East Sea pearls, a pair of gold silk hairpins inlaid with pearls and gems, a pair of gold tassel hairpins with pearls and peony patterns...
…”
Following the sound, someone carried the box into the Hou Mansion.
The people looked straight at it.
Even Chu Shuo, the richest man in the house, was speechless.
The Ninth Prince's gift list not only includes various ornaments and jewelry, but also sandalwood canopy beds, immortals crossing the sea screens and other items, which can't even be placed in a large open space in the front yard.
After talking about these betrothal gifts, Qingfeng presented another medium-sized wooden box and said, "These are some of the properties of the prince's shops in Kyoto and the suburbs of Beijing. Now they are all used as betrothal gifts for Miss Six."
Chu Shuo couldn't help but said: "What kind of things are there?"
The land deeds are so thin that if you put them in this wooden box, there would be dozens of them.
Originally, the five brothers had some objections to this marriage, but now that the Ninth Prince had sent so many betrothal gifts, he was eager to entrust all his wealth to Miss Sixth. They looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.
.
The most admired person is Chu Shuo. He learned to manage accounts at the age of ten and knows how valuable these things are.
Even the people who were staying outside were given red envelopes by the palace's wife, so that everyone could celebrate together.
Nan Li was already dizzy at this moment, and there was not much smile on her face.
Qing Feng was frightened and asked quickly: "Sixth Miss, but these betrothal gifts are not what you want? I can ask someone to prepare more and send them over."
"No, no, no, no, no." Nan Li waved her hand, "It's just too much, and my Qingliangyuan warehouse can't accommodate it at all, and I won't take care of these industrial accounts."
The ones given by the eldest and second brothers already take up most of the warehouse.
Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Sixth Miss, please don't worry. The prince has also sent two women to take care of the accounts. With their help, Sixth Miss will not have to worry."
They had known for a long time that Miss Six was not interested in internal matters, so they had prepared everything.
He waved, and two ladies came forward to salute.
A smile immediately appeared on Nan Li's face, and she asked her mother-in-law to stand up.
This is the person chosen by Yesi Heng, he is trustworthy, so he really doesn’t have to worry about it.
The two exchanged invitations and the marriage was confirmed, but when the wedding banquet will be held remains to be discussed.
For no other reason than Nan Li had only been back home for two or three months, the old lady and Chu Hanlin naturally wanted her to stay at home for a while longer.
Nan Li is not in a hurry at all. She is only fifteen, so there is no need to rush to get married and have children.
However, when I heard that the envoy from Qi State returned to the post house, he lost his temper and had people rush to deliver the letter back to Qi State.
As for the country, when Emperor Mu Wu learned about the real and fake princess, he was speechless and didn't know how to evaluate it.
Emperor Muwu considered it carefully and decided to conceal the matter and not pursue the country's breach of trust.
Nowadays, the relationship between Mu State and Qi State is tense. At this juncture, it is natural for them to fall out with Xinjiang State.
Jiangguo is a small country on the southwest border.
Because the Xuanyuan royal family controlled exquisite witchcraft, for hundreds of years, countries that attacked Xinjiang returned without success and suffered heavy casualties.
Over time, it cast a mysterious color on Jiang State and the Xuanyuan royal family.
But in this generation, the Xuanyuan royal family only has a single seedling of Xuanyuan Cang.
He is nearly twenty-five years old and extremely handsome.
On the cloth, there is a crystal clear bead, and from time to time, a little bit of residual soul is injected into the bead.
The twinkling stars in the beads are getting bigger and bigger.
"My aunt's soul was broken like this, she must have been in pain at that time." Xuanyuan Cang's eyes flashed with pity.
"What the king said is true, but the princess's soul is almost repaired in the spirit bead. It's time to choose the right person." Grandma Cao crossed her hands in front of her and said respectfully.
As early as when Mu was in Kyoto, the princess gave her the spirit pearl to take back to the kingdom.
In this way, even if the princess' body is dead and her soul is shattered, she can still use the body-seizing and rebirth technique to make the princess come back to life.
Xuanyuan Cang nodded and ordered the palace people to bring those women up.
There are four women in total.
Young and beautiful, at first glance, she looks somewhat similar to Xuanyuan Qingyue.
They looked at Xuanyuan Cang out of the corner of their eyes, and their faces couldn't help but look shy.
Since three years ago, they have been selected to enter the palace and will become the queen of a country in the future.
But Xuanyuan Cang's age has come, but he keeps putting it off again and again. They all thought they had no chance, but they didn't expect that they would be summoned today.
"Raise your head." Xuanyuan Cang said slowly.
When the women heard this, they raised their heads, their cheeks all flushed, and their eyes full of love.
Xuanyuan Cang couldn't help but feel disgusted when he saw it.
It was Aunt Cao who said: "Master, why don't we just take this girl?"
Xuanyuan Cang looked over and saw that the woman had a beautiful face and pink skin. She was the one who looked most like his aunt.
He nodded slightly: "Just her."
The other three were stunned.
What is this, the choice of queen was decided by an old nanny?!
One woman said unwillingly: "Master, this is not fair! Is it you who chooses the queen, or does this nanny choose the queen?"
Xuanyuan Cang narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a cold light.
He was half leaning on the throne, his posture was lazy, and his whole body exuded an aura of calmness and authority.
"Palm mouth." His thin lips moved slightly.
Someone from the palace immediately stepped forward and slapped the woman several times.
Chapter completed!
