Chapter 100: Postponement of Marriage

The eldest princess frowned slightly, and let out a long sigh, "The Cai family harbors evil intentions, if the crown prince is in power, or the day he ascends the throne as emperor, I am afraid that it will be the time when the Great Zhou Dynasty and my Puyang family are in trouble." ”

The king of Chu poured a cup of tea and sent it to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess took a sip and calmed down, "Fortunately, your father is in good health, but we also need to take precautions early, and we can't let the Cai clan seize the opportunity to seize the dynasty that my Puyang clan has worked so hard to build." ”

"Yes." The king of Chu bowed his head and replied, looking very obedient.

The eldest princess patted him on the shoulder, "It seems that Jinyi really helps you, although she is a daughter, but her courage and talent are not inferior to many men, you must manage this marriage well." ”

"Niece and nephew understood."

The eldest princess got up and walked outside, "You should go eat too." ”

When the king of Chu returned to the courtyard, the food on the table was a little more silent, but Xue Jinyi was gone, he sat alone at the table and ate a few bites of food, fortunately, he didn't need to care whether it was hot or cold in the summer.

When a servant passed by, he saw this scene and asked softly, "Your Highness, why don't you ask Miss Wen'er to come and take care of you?" She was the most thoughtful and considerate ......."

King Chu glanced at him, and the little guy shut up.

"Get out." The King of Chu ordered.

The little guy ran away.

On the other side, when Xue Jinyi saw the word "Caiyun" on the book, she finally remembered the maid who had been forgotten by herself, and casually asked Qinglan: "Where did Caiyun go?" ”

Qinglan said: "I saw that Miss Xue was busy these days, so I didn't tell Miss about Caiyun." ”

"Did she do something wrong?" Xue Jinyi asked.

Qinglan sighed in her heart, Miss Xue is knowledgeable, why are the maids around her so arrogant and unruly? She said: "Caiyun quarreled with the housekeeper's mother, and asked the housekeeper to punish her, and asked her to go to the back yard to clean up." ”

"Okay." Xue Jinyi nodded, "It's time to teach her some lessons, establish rules, and trouble the housekeeper mother in the princess's mansion." ”

Qinglan said: "I don't dare to say that it is troublesome, it is the duty of the slaves and maids to take care of Miss Xue." ”

Xue Jinyi smiled and continued to read.

After two days, several officials of the court have been to the mansions, and the officials below the fourth or fifth grade will have someone in their respective yamen to collect money, and then send it to the eldest princess's mansion together, so there is no need for Xue Jinyi and King Chu to collect money one by one.

"That's it."

The King of Chu heard Xue Jinyi sigh and asked, "What?" ”

"You just can't be too hasty." Xue Jinyi smirked, although these officials with a lower status and less power are of lower rank, they are of great help to find out the situation in the capital, and they can find out how many people the Sun family is friends with by the way.

However, the dignified King of Chu went to the homes of those officials, which was too condescending and noble, and it was easy to arouse the suspicion of others, thinking that the King of Chu would get the opportunity to make friends with the forces in the court, and if Queen Cai and the crown prince did not like the King of Chu, they just took this matter to deal with him and framed him for plotting against him.

The king of Chu didn't ask, and the eldest princess told them to go to the Land Gong Temple to have a look.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Both of you should be cautious, Xuan'er, you must take good care of Jinyi. Just go and take a look, just help a little......" That was said, but the eldest princess knew that the two children would definitely do what they could, "Don't be too tired." ”

"My nephew knows, my aunt and grandmother, please rest assured." The king of Chu made a move.

"I'm going to enter the palace later, and the prince's wedding date will be decided today." The eldest princess said: "Before I come back, you will sit in the eldest princess's mansion, and when I come back, you will go to the Land Gong Temple." ”

"Yes." The king of Chu should go down.

At this moment, a steward hurried in with a young man dressed as an attendant.

When the eldest princess saw it, she asked, "Is there anything going on in the palace?" ”

After the chamberlain saluted, he said: "Your Royal Highness, the second lady of the Weiguo Mansion is sick, so the queen mother ordered the marriage to be postponed, and wait until the second miss Xue is well before discussing." ”

"What's wrong with the good guy?" The eldest princess was surprised, "Is it serious?" ”

"Xu is greedy for cold at night, so he is infected with wind cold." The chamberlain replied, "It doesn't matter, please don't worry about it, Your Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”

Xue Jinyi knew that Xue Fangyi was scared last time because of Dong Yan's matter, and made up an excuse to catch the cold just to sound good.

She wanted to laugh a little, Xue Fangyi was really a waste, and some things were much easier for her.

The eldest princess shook her head, she was about to become the crown princess, and she was so careless.

Empress Cai personally chose such a daughter-in-law, will she have a bit of a headache now?

The eldest princess smiled faintly, "That's good." She nodded, signaled for the chamberlain to leave, and then said to the King of Chu: "Since I don't have to enter the palace, you should go to the Digong Temple first and come back early." ”

Xue Jinyi and the King of Chu should come out of the eldest princess's mansion together.

She couldn't suppress her smile anymore, and grinned at King Chu.

"What are you laughing at?" The king of Chu had a sense of foreboding.

Xue Jinyi said: "The prince's wedding date has been postponed, so won't our wedding date be postponed even further?" ”

Maybe during this period, I can find a way, not only to continue to rely on the eldest princess, but also to kick away the king of Chu. Although this idea is a bit excessive and naΓ―ve, as a time-traveler, she really doesn't want to be a victim of an arranged marriage!

Just as she was proud, the cold voice of the King of Chu came, "No matter what day it is postponed, you and I will eventually become husband and wife." ”

"......" Xue Jinyi snorted coldly, didn't bother to argue with him, and got into the carriage by herself.

The king of Chu didn't say anything more, and the two came to the Land Gong Temple outside the city smoothly.

The temple, which had been deserted for many years, was now lively, with many refugees gathered in the temple and at the entrance, including doctors treating refugees, and some household officials and nearby villagers who had come to help walk through the crowd, distributing bedding, clothes and baked naan.

The king of Chu raised his hand to signal that everyone did not need to salute, Xue Jinyi glanced at the crowd, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

A boy screamed happily, threw himself into Xue Jinyi's arms, and called "sister" sweetly.

"Benefactor, are you here?" When the child's mother came over, she was about to kneel and kowtow to Xue Jinyi, "Thank you for saving my little treasure, otherwise our mother and son are afraid that they will already be in the underworld...... Xiaobao, come and kowtow to your benefactor's sister. ”

"No, no, no." Xue Jinyi held the arm of the child's mother, and then saw several familiar faces, all of which were the same group of refugees that the Western Qin people helped last time, including Uncle Zhang, who had particularly delicious grilled fish, "Everyone is here." ”

"Thanks to Miss and benefactor, we can live until now." Uncle Zhang said with emotion.

At the mention of this, a figure flashed in Xue Jinyi's mind, glanced at the King of Chu who was talking to the household officials, and asked in a low voice, "Where is your benefactor, now?" ”
