Chapter 269: Shen Qiao'an's Marriage
Shen Qiaoan was summoned, she thought that something had happened in the Dragon Court, after all, in the past few years, there were basically unexpected dangers in the Dragon Court every day.
At this moment, Qiao An solemnly entered the Jinluan Hall and met the little emperor, but saw that the little emperor had a sad face, and he seemed to be crying.
"Okay, what are you doing?" Qiao An approached the little emperor, she also felt strange, the little emperor was already an adult, why did he come here?
She was still muttering in her heart, but the little emperor really cried, but it was a bit exaggerated.
The acting skills are a little exaggerated, but it really makes Qiao An's heart ache faintly, according to the seniority, this little emperor is his younger brother after all.
"Okay, okay, what's the matter? You are like this, where is the Son of Heaven crying nose? Shen Qiaoan hugged the little emperor and coaxed.
"I heard that the eldest sister is leaving?"
"This ......" Shen Qiao'an wanted to tell the truth, but his watery eyes were full of tears of resentment, and before Qiao An could answer, the little emperor sobbed and said, "Now, the imperial court has just strangled Ling Yuan Pavilion, why do all the right-hand men who are waiting to be raised have to leave?" β
"Your Majesty, apart from Qiao An, is there anyone else who wants to leave besides Luo Huaiyi?" Qiao An expressed his incredulity, and the little emperor nodded again and again, muttering: "Yesterday, General Cheng sent a letter over, saying that he was leaving, and Li Zhongxuan also came this morning, and he said that he would go wherever you go." β
When Shen Qiaoan heard this, he secretly scolded General Cheng for being reckless, and said: "I'm going to open a restaurant and make a pot in the spring, and the court will support the emperor as soon as there is something." β
"Let's go, let's go, let's go, let Zheng Qiuhan and the grassland people come and destroy my Zhongjing, let them come and kill the people of Zhongjing, and trample on the fertile land of my Zhongjingββ"
Hearing this, Shen Qiaoan said: "Your Majesty, I will postpone my departure a little, even if I leave, I will notify you in advance, what do you think?" β
The little emperor saw that the goal had been achieved, and if he continued to perform, he might be able to wear a goof, and nodded again and again - "If you have such a heart, I will be happy!" β
How did Shen Qiaoan know that he was on a thief ship.
On the second day, Li Zhongxuan's promotion was well known, and everyone was overjoyed and moved to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After Li Zhongxuan and Guo Jingning left, his wife was also looking for a daughter-in-law, but seeing Li Zhongxuan's absolute infatuation with Shen Qiaoan, she was also ready to seek to retain Shen Qiaoan for Li Zhongxuan.
Since Qiao An has promised the emperor, he can't say goodbye without saying goodbye, as for the fact that General Cheng and Li Zhongxuan are going to resign and leave, it is naturally groundless.
Luo Huaiyi went to all the post stations outside Zhongjing, and chose a very good place, on this day, he brought the Kanyu map to Qiao An to see, but Shen Qiaoan was embarrassed, "Brother Luo, this matter has to wait a little longer, I promised the emperor the day before yesterday, and I can only leave when the imperial capital is completely cleared." β
Luo Huaiyi actually felt that it was a bit inhumane to leave suddenly at this moment, so he agreed with Shen Qiaoan's meaning.
On the second day, as soon as Shen Qiaoan got up, the eunuch who was waiting next to the emperor came, still holding the holy decree in his hand.
Qiao An didn't know what was on the holy decree, and was a little apprehensive, so she and Yuying Yuyan and the others hurriedly knelt down to accept the decree.
The three of them all looked up at the eunuch, who also liked the flying fish suit when he swung his way, and after clearing his throat, he finished reciting the holy decree in one go, and Qiao An was stunned on the spot after listening to it.
What is the emperor doing?
Marriage!
The emperor actually gave the marriage without Shen Qiaoan's will, and asked Shen Qiaoan to be the prime minister's wife.
"Your Royal Highness the county lord, this is what my emperor meant, you can understand it, the emperor said that it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, and said that every day this week is a good day, and our family here will also pass on the words that should be passed on to you, and you have to go to the prime minister's side, so let's go first."
The eunuch handed over the holy decree to Shen Qiao'an, Shen Qiao'an got up, his lips pursed and he wanted to say something, the eunuch seemed to remember something, turned around and patted his head.
"The emperor also said that from now on, you will have to handle it, Honglu Temple will soon come to help, and our celebrant will also come over, as for the rest of the things, you don't have to worry about it!"
He also said: "You can't run away from the battle to resist the disrespect, and you can't face the saint, in order to ensure your safety, the emperor has installed a dragon forbidden lieutenant outside your county lord's mansion." β
When Shen Qiaoan heard this, she really couldn't cry or laugh.
The eunuch hurriedly slipped away, Yuying and Yuyan have also seen their love in their eyes for many years, and they are about to achieve positive results, where is there any unhappiness?
After a while, Honglu Temple and the celebrant arrived, and this group of people were busy, putting up lights for Shen Qiao'an's wedding, but Shen Qiaoan was not happy.
She wanted to reason with the little emperor, but when she arrived at the stable, she found that all the horses in the stable were gone, and she was ready to let Yuying arrange a carriage for herself, but Yuying reprimanded her as soon as she went out.
In this way, Qiao An went to the door to reason with the dragon forbidden lieutenant by herself.
The so-called Xiucai met the soldiers, and there were countless reasons, allowing Shen Qiao'an to speak lotus flowers or give them gold, silver and jewelry, this group of people like the Black Iron Tower were completely unmoved.
Joan had no choice but to retreat.
But at this moment, General Cheng arrived, and Qiao An saw General Cheng, as if he saw a life-saving straw, and asked General Cheng to help him escape from marriage, and General Cheng waved his hand again and again.
"My good lord, today's marriage is the marriage of the Son of Heaven, and it is the glory of the Emperor! I'm just a protector general, and besides, you've seen the dragon forbidden lieutenant outside, where can I take you? β
General Cheng couldn't spoil the good things that the emperor had painstakingly arranged and refused to help Shen Qiaoan.
At the palace of King Yu, the emperor came in person and told him about matching Qiao An and Li Zhongxuan, and King Yu naturally hoped that the two of them would be together, so he couldn't keep his mouth shut happily.
"They have indeed loved each other for many years, and even I don't want to see them drift apart, it's good to have the emperor's arrangement, it's good, it's good."
"I came today to give you a dozen side drums, I am afraid that Li Zhongxuan will come to propose, you will turn him away, since you also have this meaning, let them be a match made in heaven, I will go."
The little emperor was afraid that King Yu would not agree, but when he saw King Yu's eyebrows dancing, he also knew King Yu's heart.
After a while, the summoned eunuch had arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion and read out the holy decree, which was basically the same as the one read to Shen Qiaoan.
Datong is: the two of them must be together, and the parties are not allowed to make trouble, let alone protest!
Xiao Yi is here: Li Zhongxuan not only wants to marry Shen Qiaoan as the prime minister's first-class wife, but also marry Zheng Qiuhan's sister Zheng Qiuyi to fill the house.
This wedding is the eldest lady and the second lady entering the door together, as for Zheng Qiuhan's younger sister Zheng Qiuyi, she has long had a soft spot for Li Zhongxuan, this smug girl has a strong adaptability, and after knowing the news, her attitude is completely different from Shen Qiaoan's.
She hurried to the Shanggong Bureau to ask someone to make a wedding dress for herself.
It was not enough for Zheng Qiuyi to make one set, so he chose two or three sets of different suits.
There are thousands of embroiderers in the imperial court, although the time is relatively tight, but it is only half a day, and the exquisite wedding dresses are ready.
Zheng Qiuyi is the emperor of the southern country, she has been pampered since she was a child, and she and Li Zhongxuan are absolutely complementary in personality.
Li Zhongxuan and Qiao An are both more neutral personalities, but this Zheng Qiuyi is completely different, she is like a squeaky lark, overly lively.
Li Zhongxuan was surprised after receiving this holy decree, but the so-called small unbearable will make a big plan, now is not the time to dwell on this matter, he understands that the emperor's arrangement must have a deep meaning, so he ignored it for the time being, and put all his focus on the marriage proposal.
General Cheng came to Li Zhongxuan, he only knew one thing but didn't know the other, and heard that Li Zhongxuan was finally going to marry Shen Qiaoan, so he hurriedly prepared a congratulatory gift and sent it over.
"Master Li, congratulations, double happiness is coming." In fact, in General Cheng's view, Yixi is marriage, and Yixi is Li Zhongxuan's promotion.
But Li Zhongxuan heard this, because General Cheng came to mock himself, "Even you came to mock me!" β
During the words, General Cheng's congratulatory gift was thrown away mercilessly.
General Cheng was very surprised, it was obviously a matter of spending a full moon, why were these two people so strange?
After sending away General Cheng, Li Zhongxuan went to the palace of King Yu non-stop to propose marriage.
When King Yu saw Li Zhongxuan coming, he deliberately stretched his face and began to admonish earnestly.
"It stands to reason that I don't agree with you about this, you are the one who has failed my daughter, but I see that your kung fu makes me think of myself back then, Qiao An has no mother since she was a child, but I hope you can take good care of her for the rest of your life."
"The son-in-law knows." Li Zhongxuan bowed.
"Okay, okay, this king will become you, if you bully Qiao An in the future, this king and Bei Ziye will not indulge you." In fact, King Yu knows better than anyone that Li Zhongxuan is a person who pities incense and cherishes jade, and this is just to intimidate him.
Li Zhongxuan didn't have time to think about what the emperor's arrangement meant, and the meaning of the little emperor was very clear, if he married, he would have to marry the two ladies together, and if he didn't marry, the matter would be written off.
Li Zhongxuan hurriedly went to Zheng Qiuyi's side to get an appointment, then Zheng Qiuyi admired Li Zhongxuan's talent, admired Li Zhongxuan's peerless warriors, admired the five-body throw, saw Li Zhongxuan coming, pulled Li Zhongxuan and didn't leave.
Li Zhongxuan was thinking, what would such a girl look like if she would be a second lady in the future, but after all, this is the arrangement of today, what else can he do?
Everything was done, King Yu went to meet Shen Qiao'an once, analyzed it from various angles, and persuaded Qiao An.
"Now, he's the prime minister! The power is monstrous, Joan! We are royalty, and we can't just see the gains and losses of the chickens and insects in front of us when we think about things! Now our every move is related to the situation of the court, and it is peace. β
"So, what does daddy mean, my daughter has no choice?"
King Yu didn't answer positively, and said softly: "Qiao An, if the prime minister unites with General Cheng, I will have no eggs in Zhongjing, and now, if you marry him, you can also pay attention to his every move, and Daddy can't help it." β
Shen Qiaoan noticed that someone seemed to have put pressure on his father, so he could only nod in desperation.
On the second day of October, Han Xiuyi from the Shang Palace Bureau came to dress up Shen Qiao'an, and showed off Qiao'an's flowery branches, and dropped the red hijab.
"The county lord's dress is much better than the second lady."
After the bride finished speaking, she found that Shen Qiao'an's expression was wrong, she regretted her words and hurriedly covered her mouth.
"What eldest lady and second lady?" Shen Qiaoan married Li Zhongxuan according to his will, but he didn't know that there was an inexplicable "second lady." β
"Your Royal Highness, noβthere's no second lady."
"Good! I was the first to execute you, Mama, after I made this decree woman. Shen Qiao'an dropped her red hijab, and the grandmother kowtowed like a chicken eating rice, and told Qiao An everything about the second lady.
Shen Qiaoan was even more strange, "Is it the prime minister who took the initiative to marry this Zheng Qiuyi, or is it all what the emperor meant?" β
