Jin Yang finally knew that when a person is too happy, he can't speak.
He looked at the girl in front of him, and after a long time he said, "Jiujiu, I'm very happy that you can agree to my request for marriage today."
Gu Rujiu felt a little guilty in her heart, because of the friendship that the other party gave, she couldn't make an equal return. Therefore, the more serious Jin Yang is, the more restless she is in her heart.
"Your Majesty, I..." Gu Rujiu opened her mouth to speak, but was stopped by Jin Yang.
He held her hand carefully, as if he was afraid of a sudden beauty, so he only dared to hold it, and dared not use too much force: "I am very happy that you are willing to marry me for a long time." Therefore, some words should not be said. .
Covering the back of his left hand, Gu Rujiu patted Jin Yang's hand with his right hand across the handkerchief: "Your Majesty, I understand."
Jin Yang smiled when he heard the words, and with a little force, he wrapped Gu Rujiu's hand in his palm. They have a long time ahead and he still has a lot of opportunities.
Bai Xian looked at the unruly actions between His Majesty and the county magistrate of Changyan, and buried his head even lower, but his heart was calm.
It is actually a good thing for him that the head of Changyan County is the queen. If nothing else, at least the county lord Changyan is somewhat familiar with him, which is better than other girls from aristocratic families entering the palace.
He Ming was much more shocked than Bai Xian, and even showed a bit of surprise on his face. He had long known that His Majesty treated Changyan County Lord very well, and he always thought of her whenever there was a good thing. But he thought that it was only because the Queen Mother loved Changyan County Master, and His Majesty was specially good to her, but he knew that His Majesty was actually a man and a woman for Changyan County Master.
No wonder His Majesty dared to speak without hesitation about the tea sent by the Changyan County Lord, and never called himself "I" in front of the Changyan County Lord.
Thinking that he had offended Changyan County Lord unintentionally, He Ming regretted it for a while, knowing that His Majesty had such deep thoughts for Changyan County Lord, how could he make such a mistake.
He turned his head and glanced at Bai Xian. He was still wondering why Bai Xian, an old fox, was like an obedient grandson in front of the county magistrate of Changyan. It's nice to sell it.
Feeling that he lost, He Ming became more vigilant towards Bai Xian. He managed to climb to this position now, but he couldn't let the old fox Bai Xian take it back.
Not long after Gu Rujiu and Jin Yang sat in the pavilion, the sky suddenly darkened and the wind was blowing, as if it was about to rain heavily.
"Your Majesty, the weather has changed, let's go back." Gu Rujiu saw the strong wind rolling up the bamboo leaves, remembering that Jin Yang's body couldn't get wet, and said, "Tomorrow I will accompany you out for tea."
"For a long time, just remember to keep your word," Jin Yang heard the words and stood up with a smile, walked to Gu Rujiu's side, and blocked the strong wind for her, "Let's go."
Gu Rujiu was a little speechless. Besides drinking tea, couldn't he think about other things
It's a pity that the gods are not beautiful. The two people just walked out of the pavilion not far away, and the raindrops cracked down.
"Oh," Gu Rujiu wiped the raindrops from his forehead, turned his head to look at the beautiful young man in the brocade and jade crown beside him, and without regard for etiquette, grabbed his sleeve, "Your Majesty, come with me."
Jin Yang looked at Gu Rujiu who was about to run, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he took her hand back and pulled her to run towards Luan and Gong Xiao.
Da da da.
Seeing that His Majesty and the county magistrate of Changyan were running in front like a child, Bai Xian shoved the umbrella in his hand into the hand of the little eunuch behind him, and followed after him. On the way, he deliberately embarrassed himself. some.
As soon as the two ran under the eaves of Luanhe Palace, the heavy rain poured down, crashing on the ground, splashing a mist of water.
Gu Rujiu covered her stomach and said with a smile: "Fortunately, we ran fast, otherwise we would get caught in the rain."
"Fortunately, you responded quickly, otherwise, if we stayed in the pavilion in such a big wind and rain, we would definitely get soaked all over." Jin Yang took out a handkerchief, lowered his head and carefully wiped the rain off Gu Rujiu's cheeks.
Jin Yang's movements were very light, so light that Gu Rujiu's cheeks were a little itchy, she lowered her head slightly uncomfortable, avoiding his gentle gaze, and shoved her handkerchief into Jin Yang's hand: "Your Majesty, give yourself a wipe too. Wipe it."
"Okay." Jin Yang put away his handkerchief and looked down at the handkerchief that Gu Rujiu had stuffed. The handkerchief is very clean, and the soft cotton cloth is very comfortable on the hands. There is a flower embroidered in the corner of the handkerchief, but the embroidery is a little unsightly, and it is impossible to tell what flower it is.
After wiping it on his face at will, Jin Yang put the handkerchief on his body and glanced at the palace, which had no owner: "This place is almost repaired, let's take a long time to see what else needs repairing?"
Gu Rujiu looked up and saw the pattern of flying phoenix and auspicious clouds carved on the eaves, which was indescribably noble.
Bai Xian and He Ming bowed forward and pushed open a door behind them.
This is the back door of Luan He Palace, but it's just the back door, and it has been done very elegantly and exquisitely.
Gu Rujiu turned around, looked at the wide-open door behind him, turned to look at Jin Yang with anticipation in his eyes, and stepped into the door.
The apse seemed a little quiet because no one lived there, but because the windows were open, the furnishings in the house were all newly made, so it wasn't so deserted. Gu Rujiu noticed that the patterns on many objects here are very auspicious, and the styles are also his favorites on weekdays, even just a chair, which is the style that he has used since he was a child.
These things are all prepared according to their own hobbies and habits, Your Majesty, he...
Gu Rujiu turned back sharply, looked at the young emperor standing behind him, opened his mouth for a while before saying softly, "Your Majesty, how long have you been preparing here?"
"This place has been repaired since last spring, and the interior decorations were only prepared this year," Jin Yang reached out and touched a bottle of plum blossoms on the cabinet, and said with a smile, "Here I have asked them to try their best to follow yours. Arrange it according to your preferences, but you live in the Hou Mansion most of the time, and I may not have considered many things. If you have any dissatisfaction, feel free to bring it up and I will ask them to change it."
Gu Rujiu shook her head, walked to the window, and saw the orange trees outside the window.
"It's very good here," Gu Rujiu turned back and smiled at Jin Yang, "Your Majesty, I like it very much."
Seeing her smile, Jin Yang couldn't help laughing: "You just like it."
Gu Rujiu stared blankly at the smile on his face, her heart softened.
In Kangquan Palace, the Queen Mother sat in front of the window, watching the pouring rain outside the window, and slowly put down the book in her hand.
"Queen Mother, it's raining so hard outside, the servants are a little worried about Your Majesty and the county head. Do you want to send someone to pick them up?" Aunt Liu looked out of the window worriedly. His Majesty was not very well, so he couldn't get wet.
"No need," Empress Dowager Zhou shook her head and turned a page of the book in her hand, "There are so many rooms in the palace, isn't there a place for them to hide from the rain?"
Seeing this, Aunt Liu stopped talking and silently stepped aside.
After the rain stopped, His Majesty and the county magistrate of Changyan returned to Kangquan Palace. Aunt Liu saw that their clothes were neat and they were still wearing the same clothes as before, so she put down the last worry in her heart.
During dinner, Jin Yang suddenly said to Bai Xian of Bucai: "The county master likes this sauce duck tongue, you can move it to her."
Gu Rujiu raised her head and smiled at him, and the two small dimples suddenly floated up.
When Jin Yang saw this smile, the tips of his ears turned red, and he couldn't even notice that he ate a chopstick or something into his mouth.
Empress Dowager Zhou glanced at the interaction between the two juniors with a half-smile, and took the soup from Aunt Liu and slowly drank it.
As an elder, sometimes it's better to look a little worse.
That night, Gu Rujiu slept soundly and seemed to have a beautiful dream. Although she had forgotten the content of the dream when she woke up the next morning, it did not affect her good mood.
As soon as she had breakfast, Jin Yang asked Bai Xian to send her some novel gadgets for her to play with, but he himself could not come in person because he wanted to go to court.
She poked the bobblehead doll in her hand and watched its big head dangling. Gu Rujiu put it down with a smile, and then said to Bai Xian, "Having father-in-law Lao Bai take this trip, will your majesty have a good breakfast today?"
She heard that Jin Yang always had an appetite when he woke up in the morning, and most of the time he filled his stomach with half a bowl of porridge.
"When Your Majesty woke up this morning, he was in a very good mood. Not only did he use a bowl of porridge, he also used two pieces of golden silk cakes and a side dish," Bai Xian replied with a smile. Best appetite ever."
Hearing this, Gu Rujiu smiled again, and then got up and took a jar from the inner room: "Your Majesty usually has a bad appetite, and occasionally he drinks a big meal, I'm worried that his stomach can't stand it. This hawthorn tea It is a folk gadget, it can appetize and digest, you can take it back and let His Majesty try to drink it."
Bai Xian took the jar with both hands, and after saying a few pleasant words, he took the "thank you" Gu Rujiu gave him and left Kangquan Palace.
After returning to the Qiankun Palace, His Majesty went down to court. After Bai Xian waited for him to change into the crown robe, he whispered: "Your Majesty, the county owner liked the gadgets that the slaves sent over, and also asked the slaves to bring thank you gifts."
"What did you bring with you for a long time?" Jin Yang looked at Bai Xian in a good mood after hearing this.
Bai Xian held out the small white porcelain blue-and-white jar and presented it to Jin Yang. Jin Yang took the jar and opened it, then smiled and said, "Only she would dare to give me these worthless things."
"This world is yours, Your Majesty, what precious things do you have?" Bai Xian turned around and took out a teacup from the tray brought by the palace maid, and put it on the imperial case, "The most important thing is the heart of the county lord. Fangcai County Master asked the slave maid how much you had for breakfast, and the slave maid said it all as soon as she was happy. After the county master heard it, he was afraid that you would hurt your stomach by overeating, so he specially asked the slave maid to brew this hawthorn tea for you to drink. ."
After speaking, Bai Xian knelt down in front of Jin Yang: "The slave does not intend to reveal your hobby, please forgive me."
"If you were talking to other people, I would naturally condemn you, but..." Jin Yang picked up the teacup and took a sip of hawthorn tea. Others, I forgive you not guilty."
Bai Xian immediately thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you Your Majesty."
He Ming in the corner pouted in disdain, a shameless old fox who got cheap and sold well!
In the morning, I drank a large cup of hawthorn tea. During lunch, Jin Yang's appetite was exceptionally good, and the meat dishes that used to be boring in the past became delicious. After lunch, he just picked up the memorial and remembered that he had said for a long time that reading after a meal was not suitable for not only hurting the mind but also hurting the eyes, so he put the memorial back and began to take a walk after dinner.
This was scattered and scattered, and I accidentally arrived at Kangquan Palace. Then he sat in Kangquan Palace for more than half an hour before getting up and returning to the palace to handle political affairs.
It took a lot of time to go back and forth like this, but the processing of the memorial was very efficient. Before the dinner started, Jin Yang finished processing the memorial.
"Your Majesty, do you want to pass the meal?" Seeing that His Majesty put down his pen, He Ming stepped forward and asked softly.
Rubbing his forehead, Jin Yang glanced at the sky outside the window, "Let them put the meal in Kangquan Palace, and I will have dinner with my mother today."
The old god Bai Xian, who was standing on the side, was looking at He Ming and scolded in his heart, this is no wink, there is the county head of Changyan in Kangquan Palace, how can His Majesty find a reason to go there.
On the side of Kangquan Palace, Queen Mother Zhou heard that the imperial meal was going to be placed here. She was not surprised at all, and smiled and said to Gu Rujiu: "It seems that the emperor still likes my meal here."
Knowing that the queen mother was deliberately making fun of herself, Gu Rujiu just tilted her head and smiled, and refused to open her mouth.
Sure enough, for the next two days, Jin Yang had a meal at Kangquan Palace every day, and he stayed in Kangquan Palace for one or two hours every day.
On the day Gu Rujiu was about to return to the mansion, Jin Yang came to Kangquan Palace early in the morning, and then sent Gu Rujiu to the carriage.
"For a long time," Jin Yang knew that when his junior sister went back today, the wedding ceremony would be held, and he could also openly propose marriage to the Gu family, "After you go back, you have to take care of yourself."
"It's the same with Your Majesty." Gu Rujiu bowed to Jin Yang and said with a smile, "I hope that the next time I see His Majesty, His Majesty will be stronger than he is now."
Jin Yang smiled and put a golden nanmu box in Gu Rujiu's hand: "I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I don't know what gift to give to congratulate you. After thinking about it, only this safe jade pendant has the best meaning. "
Gu Rujiu held the box and smiled at Jin Yang.
"Get in the carriage, sir and wife must be expecting you to go back." Jin Yang helped her into the carriage, smiled as the curtains of the carriage were lowered, the horses pulling the carriage stepped on the hoof, and the copper bell hanging on the carriage dipped. The bell rang.
"Your Majesty," the curtain that had been drawn was lifted again, and behind the curtain a pretty face with a long smile appeared, "The servant girl is waiting for Jun Jiaxin."
The curtain was lowered again, and the carriage turned around and slowly left outside the palace.
Jin Yang stared blankly at the direction the carriage was leaving, and showed a smile that was like clouds and fog.
After the carriage left the palace, Gu Rujiu looked down at the box on her lap, hesitated for a moment, and opened the box cover.
The box is covered with soft satin brocade, and on the brocade is a milky white jade pendant the size of a thumb. The jade pendant is very ordinary in workmanship, but the jade is of good quality, and it can be seen that it has been warmed by someone wearing it.
Take out this jade pendant. The jade pendant is tied with a red rope. It looks like a fish and a drop of water. Gu Rujiu fell in love with it the first time he saw it.
Taking a closer look at the jade pendant, she saw that the jade pendant was still engraved with words.
"Long live a hundred years, Comping Loctite."
Gu Rujiu said these eight words softly, and her heart moved slightly.
This is very similar to the pressure jade that the elders gave their children. After many people have children, they are afraid that the child will not grow up safely, so they will wear the longevity lock and longevity jade for him, thinking that the jade can suppress the child's soul. , lock the child's life.
Suddenly she thought of a possibility, and her hand holding the jade pendant also trembled, took a deep breath, and carefully put the jade pendant back into the box.
Every year in the capital, noble ladies from aristocratic families hold the wedding ceremony, so it is a common thing for most people in the capital that the second girl of the Gu family has to do the wedding ceremony. Regardless of whether the relationship with the Gu family is good or not, they will give the gifts that should be given, and everyone still needs to do things properly.
Originally, everyone didn't take this ceremony seriously. On the day of the ceremony, everyone saw that Zanbin, the guest of honor, was a female celebrity in Dafeng, and the person who helped to handle the hospitality was also Mrs. Quanfu from Beijing. With a bit of emotion, the Gu family invited these people to come, I don't know how much favor it took
In their opinion, although the Gu family has been flourishing in recent years, in terms of background, it is still inferior to those of the Sima family and the Li family, but this time, the ceremony is not inferior to that of the Sima family. The Gu family was usually silent and kept a low profile, but this time it suddenly became so high-profile, they were really not used to it.
When Princess Cheng came to Gu's house in a carriage, the carriages were already parked outside, almost half the street.
She knew in her heart that this was no longer Jinzhou, and that the bereaved Princess Cheng would not go anywhere in front of these families in the capital, so she did not let the servants drive away the carriage in front, but waited quietly. Take care of family arrangements.
"Mother, it's just a Hou's mansion, and we have to wait," Jin Shuyi said unhappily, "People in this capital are really unruly."
"Just stop," Princess Cheng sighed, glaring at her daughter with glamorous eyes, "You also know that this is the capital, not Jingzhou. The rules of this place are bigger than Jinzhou."
Jin Shuyi pursed her lips, a little unhappy, but she couldn't refute it.
In the past six months since she arrived in the capital, she has not experienced the feeling of being surrounded by other girls. The noble ladies of the aristocratic families in the capital are all outstanding in appearance and talk well, no matter what they do, people can't pick out the slightest mistake. The tricks these people play and the food they eat are more particular than those of Jinzhou. She, the princess of the Wangfu, is at a loss in the capital, like a countryman entering the city.
Although these noble ladies from aristocratic families have always been polite when they face her, she can feel that these noble girls do not welcome her, or they look down on her at all. She is the princess of the dignified palace, why should the daughters of these ministers look down on her? !
She was a little unwilling and wanted to be angry with these people, but in the face of the impeccable etiquette of these people, she didn't even have the confidence to get angry.
Now, she dreams of bullying Jin Yang every day and every night. How proud she was at that time, how much she regrets it now. She was afraid almost every day, afraid that Jin Yang would retaliate against her.
But after waiting for so long, no one in the palace embarrassed her, but instead made their family eat and live. The worries and fears in her heart finally dissipated bit by bit. What followed one after another was unwillingness and resentment. She was the princess of the palace, so why couldn't she compare to these ministers' daughter Qinggui? Soon someone came to arrange for them to get off the bus, and it was Gu Jiaer who received the mother and daughter. Daughter-in-law Hu. Hu treated them extremely politely and politely, and couldn't pick out the slightest rudeness. It was not until Jin Shuyi sat down with Princess Cheng that she realized that she didn't even have time to say a word just now.
Sitting next to them were two old princesses of the county. Princess Cheng politely chatted with the two princesses of the county. As for Jin Shuyi, she just drank tea without saying a word from beginning to end.
When the wedding ceremony officially started, Jin Shuyi raised his head and looked at the rumored princess of Changyan County, who was loved by the Queen Mother.
It was the first time she saw Gu Rujiu in Beijing for half a year. In the past few gatherings, either Gu Rujiu wasn't there or she wasn't there, and they were never seen.
She looks... that's it, except for her softer skin and darker hair, her appearance is not as good as those of the two girls from the Sima family. A pair of eyes are also clear and energetic, but just by virtue of these, can the queen mother and the emperor treat the emperor differently
Gu Rujiu had her long hair loose. After the guest of honor gave her a blessing, she returned to the backyard and changed into a red wide-sleeved dress, and combed her hair into a beautiful cross bun.
"Girl, jade pendant..." Qiu Luo brought a few maids and held out several brocade boxes, all of which were filled with jade pendants with excellent meaning.
"Bring me the golden nanmu boxes that I put in the inner lattice." Gu Rujiu glanced over these boxes and shook his head.
"Yes," Qiu Luo put down the box in his hand, walked quickly into the inner room, and held the golden nanmu box in front of Gu Rujiu.
She knew that this thing was given to the girl by the queen mother or the emperor, because other than the royal family, no one else would easily use a box made of golden nanmu.
After the box was opened, Qiu Luo was a little disappointed, because what was inside was not a rare treasure in the world, but a jade pendant of good quality but common.
Taking the jade pendant out of the box, Gu Rujiu put the jade pendant in the lotus-patterned purse and hung it on his waist.
After dressing up, Gu Rujiu reappeared in front of the guests and thanked the guests before officially opening the table.
When the food came to the table, everyone was surprised again. Did the Gu family really plan to make a high profile this time? These dishes are only served at very important banquets. Although the second girl and the wedding ceremony are important, they are not so grand, right
Everyone came to the wedding ceremony with careless thoughts, and left Gu's house full of suspicion.
And Princess Cheng has more concerns than others. She is worried that the Gu family can't see the gift she gave. If she asks to come to the door in the future, will the Gu family help.
Three days later, Mrs. Hu's wife put on her official uniform, brought officials from the Ministry of Rites and a lot of rare gifts, and knocked on the door of the Gu family.
