Chapter 122 Wedding Date
Chapter 122 Wedding Date
"I also heard the servants talking about her. She should be the Concubine Jiang, right?" Xiao Tao saw that Jiang Wanwan was acting crazy and was not sure for a moment.
"Why is she crazy?" Liu Emei hesitated for a moment, "Is someone abusing her?"
"The girl must be overthinking it. She just gave birth to a little grandson for the palace, and everyone is praising her so much. How could anyone abuse her?" Xiao Tao comforted her.
Liu Emei nodded hesitantly and reluctantly accepted Xiaotao's explanation.
"Your Majesty, the Third Prince just rescued a girl from the Liu family in the Imperial Garden. It caused quite a stir and many female members of the family saw it. I'm afraid this matter cannot be concealed." Eunuch Liu reported to Zhao Changta exactly what happened in the Imperial Garden.
Zhao Changta put down the scroll in his hand, "I arranged a noble lady from the Xiao family for him, but he didn't want her and insisted on choosing his own? Do you think this was an accident, or did he do it on purpose, or did someone else do it on purpose?"
Eunuch Liu pretended to be dumb and said respectfully, "I don't know."
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Third Prince requests an audience."
"Announce." Zhao Changta sat on the dragon throne, his expression difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry.
"Father, Father...It was indeed an accident that I saved Miss Liu. I don't want to marry her." Zhao Zheyong knelt as soon as he entered the room.
Zhao Changta sneered, "This heroic act of saving a beautiful woman has become a legend in the palace. If you don't marry her, how will she live her life in the future?"
Zhao Zheyong didn't care about that. He only cared about his own happiness. "How about...let Miss Liu be the concubine and let Miss Xiao be the principal wife."
Zhao Changta had discussed this with Zhao Zheyong before, and Zhao Zheyong knew who he was going to marry.
Given the current situation, the only option left is for both women to marry here.
Zhao Changta narrowed his eyes and slammed his hand heavily on the table, "You are dreaming! Now, you are shameless and want me to shamelessly tell Xiao Qing to let his daughter and Liu Qing's daughter marry on the same day. Not to mention whether Liu Qing will allow his daughter to be a concubine, giving Xiao Qing's daughter to you as the principal wife is already a compliment to you. I can't afford to lose this person!"
Zhao Zheyong was very unhappy, as he felt that as a prince, marrying the daughter of an official was a step down in every way, yet he was being picked and chosen by these ministers.
Shouldn't we fight hard to get our daughter to his backyard?
"Your Majesty, Lord Xiao is here."
Zhao Zheyong's expression froze and he looked towards the door.
Zhao Changta sighed slightly and said with a smile, "Xiao Qing, you are here."
------------
The rich aroma of tea wafted out of the teapot and spread into every corner of the hall.
Jiang Yunxi poured hot tea into the cup and let the tea cover the cup and flow down slowly.
"Princess, His Majesty has granted a marriage between the Third Prince and Miss Liu." Nan Nan came in to report.
Jiang Yunxi was not surprised at all. She just asked someone to say a few random words in front of Xiao Jinxiu, and Xiao Jinxiu naturally did not dare to marry Zhao Zheyong.
By the way, let the girl from the Liu family harm Zhao Zheyong.
"Princess, in Juzhou, Lord Mu found out that the collapse of Anping Bridge was caused by Meng Zhi, the governor of Juzhou."
Jiang Yunxi raised an eyebrow, "Has this been verified? According to the Queen's personality, she would not do something that would make it obvious that it was her doing."
"Perhaps there was also secret guidance from officials in Juzhou." Nan Nan felt that Jiang Yunxi was right.
"Write a letter to Mu Kang and tell him that there is a hidden story behind this matter. Ask him to investigate the matter in detail." Jiang Yunxi turned to look at the small white flowers that were blooming in the yard.
"Your Majesty, do you know about this matter?" Jiang Yunxi suddenly thought of someone.
"He probably doesn't know yet. Lord Mu may also feel that there is something hidden in this matter, so he hasn't sent the news back for the time being." Nan Nan thought for a moment.
Jiang Yunxi nodded, "Then let's find a suitable person to tell His Majesty first."
Zhen Zhen smiled, "Princess, the Queen Mother wants you to come over and talk."
Jiang Yunxi nodded and wanted to get up and go over, but was suddenly stopped by Zhen Zhen, "Princess, you should change your clothes."
Jiang Yunxi crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes, "Is there something I don't know?"
"Madam Mu is here." Zhen Zhen smiled, "She is here to see her daughter-in-law."
Jiang Yunxi's expression was calm, "Oh."
She sat in front of the dressing mirror, looked at the precious jewelry in the jewelry box, and picked out an expensive hairpin.
When Zhen Zhen saw Jiang Yunxi picked an expensive hairpin, she thought that Jiang Yunxi picked it on purpose because she attached great importance to this meeting.
Zhenzhen was still very happy.
Jiang Yunxi deliberately wanted Old Madam Mu to think that she was extravagant and wasteful, and was not suitable to be a daughter-in-law.
"Yunxi greets grandmother and Madam Mu." Jiang Yunxi bowed to Jiang Xueyi.
She was wearing a long dress embroidered with moon-pink cloud patterns and a gold hairpin with a red-gold peony pattern in her hair, which made her look noble and elegant.
Jiang Xueyi kindly pulled Jiang Yunxi up and sat down next to her.
"He is indeed a good-looking child." Old Madam Mu praised him generously.
"Thank you for the compliment, old lady." Jiang Yunxi replied politely.
Jiang Xueyi opened her mouth and said with a smile, "Madam Mu came here today to finalize the wedding date. Yunxi, what do you think?"
"Is this Mu Kang's idea?" Jiang Yunxi remembered that Mu Kang had said before that they would discuss the wedding date when she wanted to get married.
She felt that this was not what Mu Kang meant.
But if the elders have arranged it, he will not refuse or object.
"That's what I thought. As for the child, there is no rush at all, but I thought that if the marriage is delayed, wouldn't it cause trouble? It should be settled early. If there are any problems, they can be solved slowly." Madam Mu replied with a smile.
Jiang Yunxi didn't say anything.
Jiang Xueyi looked at Jiang Yunxi and smiled to resolve the awkwardness, "This child is shy."
Jiang Yunxi nodded calmly, "Everything is up to grandma."
Jiang Xueyi and Madam Mu laughed so hard that they couldn't stop. "Okay, okay, it's settled."
Jiang Yunxi returned to his palace with a calm expression and did not say a word on the way.
"Is the princess unhappy?" Zhen Zhen leaned her head close to Nan Nan and asked in a low voice.
Nan Nan glanced at her and thought, "You just realized it?"
Zhen Zhen knelt down in front of Jiang Yunxi and asked her directly, "Princess, why are you unhappy?"
Nan Nan raised her eyebrows and looked at Zhen Zhen, thinking that she was a little bold.
"Do you want to be Mu Kang's concubine?" Jiang Yunxi asked her with a smile on her face, "Nannan has no interest in Mu Kang, and I will definitely not let him serve me in the future. If you are interested, you can..."
