Chapter 617 The only dowry in the world

The team that gave the betrothal gifts stopped at the palace gate, Zhuang Xile turned over and dismounted, and the girl with red fu song behind her followed her dismounted in unison, her movements were uniform and heroic.

Hong Du raised his hand, the Jinjun who were pushing the carts had tidied up his clothes, took out the stick from the carriage and passed through the big red flowers on the box, and with a little force, the box was lifted up. Yulin Jun, who was guarding the palace gate, opened the palace gate with a test-tested waist sign, and under the leadership of Zhuang Xile, the festive team entered one after another.

Seeing Zhuang Xile arrive, all the civil and military officials stretched their necks, and when they saw the team that could not see at a glance, they were even more curious.

"Xikang County Prince's Mansion Village is happy to pay homage to the emperor, long live my emperor."

"Gourmet to the Queen, the Queen is thousands of years old and thousands of years old."

Then everyone behind her was shorter, knelt on one knee, and shouted:

"Long live the emperor!"

"The Empress is a thousand years old!"

Seeing the betrothal gifts filled the entire square, the emperor and the queen both showed a satisfied look, especially the queen, I felt relieved.

As long as you return all these betrothal gifts, Yan Yun's betrothal gifts will look like a princess should get married.

Emperor Xu Tai raised his arm and "flat his body."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Everyone stood up, Zhuang Xile presented the betrothal gift book with both hands and said loudly: "Report to the emperor, my daughter's brother Zhuang Zhenting failed to come to Kyoto for employment due to war. My daughter went to Beijing for her brother to welcome the princess into the southwest, and brought her 180-plus gifts. Please ask the emperor and the queen to take a look."

Eunuch An, beside the emperor, trotted down the stairs, bowed down the ladder, took the book with his hands and turned around and delivered it to the emperor. The emperor just took a slight look and gave it to the queen. The queen looked slightly surprised at the betrothal gift on the list, and then she could not hide her joy in her eyes.

Zhuang Xile turned around and ordered the open box to be opened. The betrothal gift inside was immediately displayed in front of everyone. Except for some clothes, jewelry, famous paintings and antiques, many people have never seen them before. They only felt that the workmanship was extremely exquisite, and the gems inlaid on them shone brightly in the sun, making people reluctant to take their eyes away.

The emperor did not rush to see the betrothal gift, but said, "General Weilie has expanded his territory for me this time. I am very pleased to let his sister Princess Xile go to Beijing to welcome the princess. I am pleased to agree to it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the civil and military officials immediately lowered their heads and bowed, "The Emperor is wise."

Who is present is not a human spirit? Zhuang Xile is probably coming with so many betrothal gifts, but he has long received the emperor's permission. These words are just a clear path.

Zhuang Xile clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the first day after my daughter went to Beijing, the best news came from the front. My elder brother, General Zhuang Zhenting, led the vanguard army to raid the Portuguese, successfully captured the two cities of Portuguese, and our army won a great victory."

The emperor was stunned and then shouted loudly. Zhuang Zhenting is now his son-in-law. As a father-in-law, he was very content with his son-in-law, and as an emperor, he was even more satisfied.

The joy on the faces of civil and military officials became even more intense, "Congratulations to the Emperor."

Some of them were a little sad. The emperor first took action to take over the son-in-law, who was possessed by force, was really good at faces, and there was plenty of betrothal gifts. At this time, news of the victory came. Such news was also very beneficial to the princess' reputation in the palace.

The queen was even more satisfied when she heard about it.

Looking at the whole of Kyoto, who has the son-in-law who has the ability, the voices that secretly say that the princess is going to be the second wife should have stopped.

Seeing that the news was indeed as effective as expected, Zhuang Xile couldn't help but feel proud. She suppressed the news and refused to send it to Kyoto. She was waiting for the moment.

The emperor was in a good mood and then led all civil and military officials to see the betrothal gifts.

"Xile girl, what are these?"

The items of the betrothal gifts look good. Everyone only thinks that the Prince of Xikang's Mansion is rich and does not know how much money these betrothal gifts can be worth.

Zhuang Xile smiled and pointed to the boxes in front of her and said, "These are all the assets of my elder brother. My elder brother has been able to share some spoils for many years. The Portuguese Boat produces all kinds of gems, which are all seized by my elder brother on the stand."

"There are some of the spoils accumulated by the grandfather and uncle's war for many years. Some belong to the yamen, some of them were divided by the generals, and some of them could be sold for military funds. These things that are not easy to take and are very exquisite are regarded as glory stored in the warehouse."

"The eldest brother is the eldest grandson, and he should inherit most of the time. Therefore, he gave it to his sister-in-law as a betrothal gift."

It can be said that most of the things here are symbols of military achievements in the county prince’s mansion over the years, and they are used as betrothal gifts, even the emperor cannot underestimate them.

The emperor took a scimitar inlaid with gems. Zhuang Xile smiled and said, "This scimitar is an object of the King of Portugal. When the King of Portugal was still a prince, he led people to sneak into the southwest. Because he was unable to win against his grandfather, he robbed the sword by his grandfather when he fled in a hurry. Later, he was kept by his grandfather."

"And this box of pearls was also seized from the Portuguese people. They were big and round. My grandfather said he would keep them for the women in the mansion to make jewelry."

Looking around, the emperor's heart was inexplicably excited. It was not false to say that these things were witnesses of glory in the prince's palace. The use of them as betrothal gifts was enough to show the importance they attached to Yan Yun.

"Okay, I've accepted this betrothal gift for Yan Yun."

The queen's smile never stopped. Not only her, but also the Zhao family saw from these betrothal gifts that Yan Yun, the prince's mansion, attached great importance to it.

The eldest prince, who appeared here specifically today, also had a faint smile on his lips, thinking in his heart that one of them must live a good life.

He was unwilling to make his mother embarrassed and his sister worried, but the people of the Zhao family had no intention of letting him go and used him as a support for his future success.

He has already done this. If the Zhao family still wants to attack their sister, he will personally cut off their thoughts.

In Jingyi Palace, Yan Yun had already learned that Zhuang Xile was coming, but she didn't expect that Zhuang Zhenting would win the battle, and the close palace maids chattered around her and kept talking.

"Princess, Princess Xile brought 180 to carry the dowry. Those who had just inquired about the news came back were all the spoils of the prince's mansion over the years. Princess Xile personally also said that General Weilie's family background."

"This betrothal gift can no longer be measured by money. It may be the only one in the world."

"Although General Weilie was unable to come in person, Princess Xile used the Jinjun to escort the betrothal gift, and the betrothal gift was so heavy. In addition, General Weilie fought again at this time, and the princess was the most glorious when she got married."

The whole Jingyi Palace was happy. Many people were talking about gossip about being a princess and being a second wife these days, and they also said that if General Weilai went to the stand, wouldn't it be pitiful if the princess was there? Now those people are only left with jealousy.
