As early as when the sage gave the order, Qin Huaiyuan's servant who was listening to the news at the gate of the palace got the letter, and Sayazi ran to the horse tied to the tree branch, turned over and jumped up, and galloped home. to report.
Qin Yining was doing needlework with Mrs. Sun in the house when she heard a loud cry of joy from the old woman from the second door.
"Old lady! Madam! Miss! Great joy, great joy!"
This shout made everyone in the room startled. The old lady lifted the curtain and came out and said anxiously: "What's going on! Tell me now!"
The old lady who guarded the second gate said with a smile on her face: "Old lady, I'm so happy! I just sent a message to the boy next to the master. Today, a sage has issued an decree to confer the marriage of our fourth young lady to Prince Zhongshun. The princess is here. He got the news and came back to spread the word, and the words of the palace's will to give marriage are about to arrive."
Hearing this, the whole family was shocked beyond words, and everyone's eyes turned to Qin Yining, who was standing under the porch, supporting Sun's family.
Qin Huining's hands gradually clenched, and she lowered her head in inferiority.
Miss Eight was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Fourth sister, congratulations!"
The congratulations from Miss Eight brought everyone back to their senses, and they all congratulated Sun and Qin Yining.
The old lady was also overjoyed, "Okay, okay, although being a princess is not as good as being a favorite concubine of a saint, but in the end our daughter also has a good home. The fourth girl is married, and the next step is Sister Hui. Son and Sister Bao."
The men in the outer courtyard also got the news, and Qin Yu, Qin Han, the second master and the third master also came in to say congratulations. And anxiously went to prepare the incense case and candlesticks to receive the order.
The old lady folded her hands and bowed to the sky, "I didn't expect that when our family came to Dazhou, there would be good news one after another. It's really the ancestors' blessing, the ancestors' blessing!"
The second master smiled and said: "Not only is the ancestor's blessing, but also thanks to the ability of the elder brother. Now I also have an official job in the Ministry of Rites, and the third brother's property has also been properly contacted. All thanks to the arrangement of the elder brother."
"Yes." The third master nodded with a smile.
After the Qin family experienced massacres, starvation, and looting, they once again stood firm. Although they sacrificed many people, their backbones never disappeared.
When the family was almost ready, the imperial decree in the palace arrived.
In the center of the spacious courtyard, an incense burner and incense table were prepared, a futon was placed on the ground, and the whole family knelt down according to their identities.
"Fengtian, the emperor's edict said, I have heard that Yi Ning, the daughter of Qin Huaiyuan, Minister of Rites, is sixteen years old. She is demure and elegant, outstanding in talent and appearance, gentle and courteous, and has a blue heart. I and the queen mother are very happy to hear it, and I am now the prince of Zhongshun. Pang Xiao, twenty-four years old, at the age of marriage, both civil and military, loyal to the emperor. Qin's wife is a good match for Pang Xiao's talent and beauty, and the special commander of Qin's Yi Ning Xu mates with Prince Zhongshun Pang Xiao. Concubine, all the etiquette is handed over to the two parties, and they will be married on May 11th, so please!"
"Thank you for going to Ron."
The family bowed solemnly.
Qin Yining knelt in the middle, bowed his head and raised his hands above his head to receive the imperial decree.
The servant who passed the decree smiled and said, "Congratulations to Miss Qin."
The second master, the third master and the two cousins immediately greeted the servants politely, gave them a big red seal, and led them to have tea.
Qin Yining held the imperial decree in his hand and read the words on it again. It still feels cloudy and foggy, as if in a dream.
She always felt that although she and Pang Xiao had a friendship, it was not easy to really want to get married. The sage would not allow Pang Xiao to have a powerful Yue family, and among them, after all, Pang Zhongzheng died sideways.
However, he did not expect that Qin Huaiyuan would actually complete the matter, so that Li Qitian willingly issued the imperial decree.
Is she really going to marry Pang Xiao
It was only at this moment that she felt that the big stone in her heart fell to the ground, and she was full of expectations and fears for the future.
"Oh, this girl has fainted with joy."
Qin Yining returned to her senses after hearing this kindly teasing, and looked back at the second lady beside her. Only then did he realize that he had unknowingly entered the main house with his family.
The old lady took Qin Yining's imperial decree for marriage and said with a smile, "I'll go and enshrine the imperial decree in the ancestral hall, along with your father's decree. This is a happy event, a happy event."
After the dust settled, Mrs Sun finally let go of her heart and said happily: "The wedding will be completed on May 11th, and it will be less than a month. Our sister Yi's wedding ceremony has not yet been done, and we have to prepare for the big wedding. What about the matter, second sister-in-law, you can help me."
"That's natural, it's a big happy event. Brother Han's daughter-in-law is about to give birth. Now that Sister Yi has a good husband, isn't this a double happiness? It's really great!" The second lady smiled happily.
Qin Yining was sent back to the bedroom, and Mrs. Sun hurriedly instructed Mama Jin: "It's too late to let her embroider the dowry by herself, you go and invite the best embroiderer and prepare carefully. Sister Yi will always make a pillow by herself. I mean, during this period, you are not allowed to show your face, just embroider quietly in the room!"
After Sun shi said that, without waiting for Qin Yining to answer, he rushed out in a hurry and prepared other things with great energy.
Qin Yining was still in shock at this time, unable to recover for a long time.
Xianyun, Jiyun, Bingtang, and Qiulu were already flushed with joy. The four exchanged glances, and then saluted Qin Yining: "Congratulations, girl, you got what you wanted!"
Even Xiao Porridge nodded happily: "Congratulations, sister!"
Qin Yining said in a trance: "Get up, Xianyun, Bingtang, you are skilled, help me embroider the pillow face, I can't do it myself."
After saying that, Qin Yining sat on the spot again and started stunned, and the maids who watched couldn't help laughing.
Qin Yining recalled the various experiences between him and Pang Xiao, from the mutual testing at the first meeting, to the gradual mutual love, and then to the desperate oath of eachother, it was really too much to wait for today's imperial decree.
She has been home for two years, and in these two years, her experience is richer than the previous fourteen years combined.
Although she has been working hard until now, she is physically and mentally exhausted, but being able to gain the fact that the group of people around her treat each other sincerely and get this marriage certificate, she feels that the hardships she has endured in the past are worth it.
—
The imperial decree for marriage was also passed on to Prince Zhongshun's residence.
After Pang Xiao received the order with Yao Chenggu, Ma Shi and Yao Shi, the whole family laughed silently to each other.
Ma slapped his thigh, "Hurry up, hurry up and prepare the dowry! Dafu, take out whatever treasures you have in the bottom of the box, and money, don't be stingy when you marry a daughter-in-law, it's not easy for a girl to follow you. You have been wronged so much by you, you always have to express yourself!"
When he was speaking, Ma Shi had already punched Pang Xiao on the shoulder: "You bastard! You are born with a blessing! You have the fortune of being as powerful as Qin Shangshu's father-in-law, Lao Taishan, and you are fortunate enough to marry a virtuous inner helper. The ancestral grave is smoking!"
Pang Xiao was beaten on the numb tendons, and grinned, "Grandma's hands are too strong!"
"I can't stop you as a bastard? Yuping, hurry up and get up. As a mother-in-law, you should take the initiative and contact your in-laws more. Don't think it's great that your son is a prince, your son is a Troublemaker, it's only unfortunate that the girl should marry him!"
"How can you say that about your grandson?" Yao shi said without anger.
Yao Chenggu nodded and said, "What your mother said is that you should do as your mother said."
"Got it, Dad."
Yao Shi immediately went to show up.
Pang Xiao called Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi to come, and said solemnly: "The eleventh day of next month is the king's happy day. During this time, the house is busy. You two should help the old lady and Mrs. Tai to make up their minds. , As for the regulations, you can't go beyond the saint to marry the queen, and the rest will be grand. Do you understand?"
Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi nodded quickly.
The two of them are strategists who are good at making decisions, but now they are arranged by Pang Xiao to organize the wedding, and they really feel like they are overkill.
But the two of them knew the relationship between Qin Yining and Pang Xiao, as well as Qin Yining's character, and the marriage was bestowed by the saint. At this time, they also felt that the prince was willing to hand over the marriage to them, which was also a manifestation of their trust in them. .
Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi went to the study to study the regulations as if they were dealing with every major event.
Since the prince has something to say, as long as it does not exceed the system of marrying the queen, as long as it conforms to the rules of the prince, everything will be luxurious and luxurious, and the Qin family must realize their sincerity.
Pang Xiao sent Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi away with a calm expression, and ran to the martial arts field with a solemn expression, stripped off his shirt and only wore a pair of black silk pants, and began to punch at the stake.
He was so excited now that he couldn't find any way to vent his emotions and excessive energy, so he just punched all afternoon, breaking three wooden stakes in the process.
And this move of Pang Xiao made Hu Zi who followed him snickered.
It also surprised Ji Zeyu who suddenly and quietly visited.
"Alan, you're here." Pang Xiao was covered in sweat, and his body got goosebumps because of the temperature at night, but he didn't care, he took the handkerchief handed by Huzi to wipe his face and wiped the sweat, and then put it on. Snow white coat.
Ji Zeyu glanced at the large and small scars on Pang Xiao's body, and finally nodded, raising the wine jar in his hand.
"have a drink?"
"It's exactly what I want." Pang Xiao instructed Hu Zi to ask someone to prepare dishes. Then he went to the bedroom with Ji Zeyu and sat down.
Ji Zeyu saw Pang Xiao's brows slightly frowned, as if he was still unfinished after punching all afternoon, so he couldn't help comforting: "The holy man bestowed the marriage, you can only obey the order, even if you had the revenge of killing your father in the past, now you can only endure it. I can see that you like the Qin family. In the future, you can put down your hatred and live a good life. "
Pang Xiao was a little surprised that Ji Zeyu would persuade him like this, smiled and said, "I know."
