Princess Anqing is the daughter of Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang did not treat his daughter badly. However, Zhu Yuanzhang himself practiced frugality. Even if he was not frugal, many of the things He Xi provided were beyond the imagination of people of this era.
Princess Anqing herself was clearly the most favored princess in the empire, but at this moment, in front of He Xi, she seemed to be a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.
Princess Anqing is obviously much richer than He Xi. He Xi’s salary does not exceed one hundred taels. But Princess Anqing feels that He Xi is the richest person.
Princess Anqing previously felt that she had the initiative in this marriage. But due to her parents' wishes and He Xi's ability to deal with everything, Princess Anqing felt that she was completely given over to He Xi.
Suppressed.
The worry in her heart suddenly rose.
Princess Anqing said: "He Xi, I have always been worried. I am worried that you will be just like when you came here, and you will suddenly return to your time."
He Xi smiled and said: "Yuan'er, how can this thing be so easy? I don't know how I got here. I don't know how to go back. And -" He Xi leaned forward slightly, his eyes facing each other.
Looking into Princess Anqing's eyes, the two sides were only a dozen centimeters apart. He Xi said: "Even if you let me go back, I won't go back."
Yes. He Xi doesn’t want to go back.
A large part of it is because of Princess Anqing.
After He Xi goes back, how can he marry such a virtuous, lovely and beautiful wife? It is simply impossible. He knows very well that he has no money, and such a woman is not something he can get his hands on. Even if he has money, it will be difficult to find a true love.
Beautiful woman to herself.
Given the marriage rate in future generations, it is not impossible for He Xi to remain single all his life.
He Xi even thought that if his parents knew about his current situation, they might let him stay. Although they will not be able to contact him in the future, how much contact do those who immigrated to the United States have with their families?
Of course, he was just comforting himself. It was certainly painful for him to never see his parents again, but people should always look forward.
On the other hand, Zhu Yuanzhang ignited his desire.
Yes. Here, not only is he worthy of being a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households, but he can also accomplish great achievements that he would never even think about in future generations. But after he goes back, he may not be able to achieve financial freedom after struggling all his life.
Although, many things in this era are not as good as those in later generations.
But power, beauty, money, career, achievement. These are not more addictive than some simple enjoyments.
The only thing that worries He Xi is the medical conditions of this era. However, although the medical conditions of this era are not high, as the top dignitary of the Ming Dynasty, he enjoys the highest medical resources of this era. He is also prepared to put some effort into this.
Moreover, with the development of medical care in future generations, will everyone be able to enjoy it?
Do you have money?
To sum it up, even if he can go back, He Xi is not ready to go back.
I asked if Ming Dynasty should be good, but he said: This place of peace of mind is my hometown.
He Xi is willing to rest in the gentle waves of Princess Anqing.
In the increasingly ambiguous atmosphere, Princess Anqing slowly closed her eyes. However, instead of being kissed by He Xi, He Xi scratched her nose hard and said, "What are you anxious about? We are going to get married soon."
Don't worry now, you won't be able to run away by then."
He Xi also thought about Princess Anqing.
After all, He Xi and Princess Anqing have been in frequent contact during this period, and there have been a lot of gossips. For He Xi, this is nothing at all. But it would not sound good if it fell on Princess Anqing.
Only then did He Xi keep distance from Princess Anqing.
However, as He Xi said, it will be soon.
------
The wedding of the Ming Dynasty nobles did not take place in one day.
After this day, He Xi began to be busy. Not only running the mansion, but also a series of etiquette. In fact, if these etiquettes were carried out within half a year, it would not be too tiring. But Zhu Yuanzhang was more concerned about this matter
Urgent, and judging from this era, Princess Anqing is indeed old.
They are all seventeen or eighteen years old.
In addition, there is no one in the He family. The so-called He family does not even exist. Therefore, some things that need to be done by the brothers and parents must be done by He Xi. Fortunately, He Xi now has a few helpers, eunuchs.
Xu Bao'er has been confirmed to marry with the princess. Luan Yi guards hundreds of households, and Wang Qianli is also sent to the princess's mansion to take charge of the guards. Then there is He Xi's disciple, Ge Tiangong.
Although He Xi has taught Ge Tiangong very little in the past six months, almost nothing.
But because of He Xi's relationship, Ge Tiangong became a ninth-grade official from a craftsman. Even after the wedding, he will probably be promoted for his merits in repairing the princess's mansion.
For such a big event as a teacher's marriage, Ge Tian worked hard both in public and private affairs.
After being busy for twenty or thirty days, He Xi was not idle even when others were celebrating the New Year. It even made He Xi feel that he had done several important things in Ming Dynasty, and none of them was as tiring as getting married.
Fortunately, we finally made it to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
The mansion at this moment has a signboard, it is He Mansion.
Originally, the palace of Princess Anqing should be listed here. After all, most princes-in-law are princesses, and they feel more or less like sons-in-law. Princess Anqing cherishes He Xi, and of course Zhu Yuanzhang treats He Xi differently from ordinary princes-in-law.
Otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang would not be able to pass that test.
In the He Mansion, Xu Da and his sons helped He Xi with a smile. This was what Zhu Yuanzhang meant, because there were no elders in the He family, and He Xi was busy getting married. This was not possible in the He Mansion, with just a few servants.
Sit in charge.
So I asked Xu Da to act as the male elder.
This is also Zhu Yuanzhang's care for He Xi. Letting Xu Da serve as the male elder is equivalent to giving He Xi a backer. From now on, He Xi will also be on the line with Xu Da.
He Xi bowed to Xu Da and said, "Wei Guogong."
Xu Da smiled and said: "Today, you have to call me Uncle Xu."
Xu Da didn't know why Zhu Yuanzhang valued He Xi so much, but he also saw that He Xi had some extraordinary qualities. Apart from anything else, He Xi's accomplishments in making weapons were enough for the Xu family to associate with him.
Moreover, Xu Da was rich enough and did not ask for anything, so he became more and more approachable. He passed on a lot of credit to others, and he did not mind supporting some juniors.
Now that Zhu Yuanzhang has spoken, he will naturally take good care of He Xi.
He Xi immediately changed his mind and said, "Uncle Xu, I'll leave you here today."
Xu Da laughed and said, "Don't worry. Go and marry my niece. Don't let Anqing wait."
He Xi was wearing a bright red wedding robe. He took two steps back, bowed again, and hurried away.
It is not far from He Mansion to Da Nei, and all the Beijing camps on both sides are standing to keep out the spectators. After all, it is the Lantern Festival. The city of Nanjing is bustling with excitement, and Zhu Yuanzhang has been deeply benevolent to the city.
Most of the people in Nanjing also loved the Ming Dynasty.
When the emperor marries his daughter, whether it is to send blessings or to watch the fun, it is always crowded and lively. Without these military guards, no one would be able to leave.
He Xi could only let people scatter wedding candies and coins over and over again.
Countless children followed the wedding procession, laughing and chasing each other back and forth.
All the way to the small east gate of the palace, he was stopped. The prince left King Qi here to greet the people welcoming the bride, while he took He Xi to the Ancestral Temple.
On the way, the prince said: "He Xi, from now on, we are really a family. From now on, you must treat my sister well. Otherwise."
"Your Highness, please rest assured. If something really happens, I will take off my own head without the Crown Prince taking action," He Xi said.
The prince said: "Don't be so scary. If I really take your head off, Anqing will take mine. I just hope that you can tolerate each other and live in harmony for a lifetime. As a brother, I will feel relieved."
While talking, the Ancestral Temple arrived.
------
In the Ancestral Temple, there were only three people, Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma and Princess Anqing.
This may be the only opportunity in Princess Anqing's life to enter the Ancestral Temple.
Because after leaving here, Princess Anqing is no longer the daughter of the Zhu family, but the wife of the He family. Naturally, she cannot come here again.
Zhu Yuanzhang first paid homage to the tablet in the Ancestral Temple, and then said: "Come, my son, burn incense to our ancestors."
Princess Anqing was dressed in a bright red wedding robe. She respectfully stepped forward to offer incense and worship devoutly.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Your mother has told me a lot. You also know these things. However, you don't have any ideas. Even when I was in poverty, I, Zhu Yuanzhang, was not a person who sold his daughter for glory, let alone
Now it’s time to ask you to marry He Xi. What’s more important is that He Xi is good and the two of you are suitable.”
"From now on, just live a good life with He Xi. Don't worry about other things."
Princess Anqing said with tears in her eyes: "I know my father."
Queen Ma said: "I put that computer and power bank in your dowry. As elders, we will not covet the things of the younger generation. You will study hard with He Xi from now on. Why Xi will have children and open branches."
San Ye. Pass on the knowledge that He Xi brought to you. This is the top priority for the He family, and it is also what your father and I want to see the most."
Princess Anqing said: "My daughter knows."
Princess Anqing's emotions were complicated and difficult to explain at the moment. She just didn't want to cry. She didn't know that she was saying goodbye to her past. She was worried about the future. Maybe both.
But many things still have to come.
Queen Ma wiped Princess Anqing's tears and said, "Good boy, don't miss the opportunity. Go out quickly. He Xi is waiting outside."
Princess Anqing nodded. Under the watch of Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma, she slowly opened the heavy door of the Imperial Ancestral Temple. The sunlight outside was hitting Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been tough all his life, felt a little weak at this time.
