Chapter 165: Proposing marriage (part 2)

Views:

The next day, the marriage proposal team set off early from the Prince of Chu Mansion. Instead of heading directly to Mrs. Rongguo's mansion, they went to the imperial city and waited for the current emperor Li Shimin and empress Changsun to appear in front of the Vermilion Bird Gate. This time, Li Shimin did not let the guards in the palace follow him. He only brought Wu Gonggong, and the others stayed in the palace.

"Let's go!"

After Li Shimin and Empress Changsun got into the special carriage and sat down, they ordered the team to set off. This time their destination was Madame Rongguo's mansion. In fact, they were closer to Chu Wang's mansion. The palace of the King of Chu is located on the South Street of Jinchengfang, and the residence of Mrs. Rongguo is in Yonghefang. Such a tossing has actually extended the time.

Mrs. Rongguo’s Mrs. Yang had already been informed of the marriage proposal, and the choice was also a good day. Before Li Kuan went out, put on clean clothes and dress appropriately. This is the most important etiquette for the marriage proposal. Wu Jue also has to dress up before he can be seen as a guest.

At a moment in time, Wang Huai knocked on Mrs. Rongguo's door, and the next person immediately notified the arrival of the team. At the same time, the Yang family led all the family members to greet them from the front door. Li Shimin and Empress Changsun got out of the carriage, Li Kuan also got off the horse and followed them behind them, Wang Huai stood silently, Zhao Qian , Qian Wu led the servants and so on.

"The concubine visits the emperor and the queen!" Yang clan bowed to salute, she did not bow, because they are now the masters, Li Shimin and the eldest grandson empress are the parents of the man, the etiquette of the emperor and ministers does not exist, it is just that the parents meet Of equal etiquette.

Although the Yang family does not have to give a big gift, the female relatives of the Yang family do the big gift. They are naturally inferior to others. Besides, they are the emperor and the queen in person, and the courtesy cannot be abandoned. Yang's three daughters also gave a big gift, and Li Kuan also bowed to Yang when she saw it. Right now she is the wife's mother and her own mother-in-law, and the Yang family can afford this gift.

"Mrs. Rongguo, we haven't seen it for a long time!" The grandson emperor smiled at the back of the village. She and Yang had already known each other. This time she also knew about the Yang family. Yang said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for many years, the queen is still so glorious. , The style remains the same!"

Empress Changsun said politely: "Mrs. Rongguo said and laughed. You look a few years younger than me. How dare I say that the style remains the same?"

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Mrs. Rongguo, let's talk about it from the mansion!"

The Yang suddenly realized, standing aside, stretching out his hand in a gesture of invitation, Li Shimin and Empress Changsun bowed their hands in response, and Yang entered the mansion. Li Shimin and Empress Changsun followed closely, and others entered the mansion one after another. As for the betrothal gifts they brought were temporarily placed outside the mansion, the betrothal gifts would not enter the woman's house if it was not fully determined. A genius remembers Chinese in one second 8/1/z/o/m/

Madam Rongguo’s family members entered the mansion one after another, and Li Kuan and others entered the mansion. This is a respect and etiquette given to the woman’s mansion. Even Li Shimin and Empress Changsun have noble status, but they have to go as they please, and they can't overwhelm the host, and all follow Yang's instructions and arrangements.

After everyone entered the mansion, Li Shimin said straightforwardly: "I wonder if Mrs. Rongguo is willing to marry my son Li Kuan?"

"Naturally willing!" The Yang glanced at Li Kuan and praised: "His Royal Highness is in love with his wife. The concubine of this marriage concubine strongly agrees. I don't know what the emperor thinks?"

"Mrs. Rongguo’s daughter is smart and a rare lady, I naturally agree!" Li Shimin laughed, "Kuan'er is an adult, and only my father, who is married, can rest assured. Just as the wife said, the relationship between the two is very good. I I am very willing to let Mi marry Kuan'er as his wife."

"In that case, the marriage will be settled!" Yang nodded and agreed. Li Kuan and Wu Shuo were naturally happy, but they saw that their parents settled down with just a few words. This made the long-awaited long-sentences nothing they had been waiting for. Happened, but made a straightforward decision.

"This is a job offer!" Li Shimin took out the red cover paper from his arms, which was filled with small prints, almost all praised Wu Jue, and the feelings between Wu Jue and Li Kuan were deeper, more affectionate than Jin Jian's sentence, and finally After writing the meaning of marriage between the two, the Yang family read it carefully and took the "reply", which is the gift of Wending.

The Wending ceremony was completed, and Li Shimin took out the gift list again, and Yang took it seriously, and read it carefully again. Yang was a little surprised to see the dazzling array of items on the list. The dowry gift list is not only a necessary etiquette, but also a manifestation of the man’s family conditions. There are 30 items large and small, and the number has doubled. Li Shimin was also shocked when he saw the dowry gift list, especially when the bride price was not so good even for the wedding of Prince Li Chengqian. Many, the relative items are all first-class materials, which makes Li Shimin have to re-examine Li Kuan’s financial resources.

Yang handed the betrothal gift list to the eldest daughter Wu Shun, who took them one by one. At this time, Wu Shun had already married Helan Anshi to join the army in Yuzhou. Helan Anshiyuan did not come back in Yuzhou. As the eldest daughter and Wu Hui's relatives, Wushun naturally returned to her family to help.

When Wushun was in Jiangling, he knew that Li Kuan was the prince, but he did not know that he was the second prince. When she got married, Helan Anshi's betrothal gift could not be compared with that of Li Kuan. Not only was Wushun not jealous, she was very pleased, and fortunate that his sister found a wishful man. Jun.

The wedding gifts are all displayed, and there is a room full of piles. There are so many kinds of items that people can see dazzlingly. It can be said that the value of the wedding gifts is not important. What is important is the type, which is the meaning of being a pair. It's more worth having than a precious betrothal gift.

"Mrs. Rongguo, when do you think you can welcome your relatives?" Yang's acceptance of the wedding ceremony means that the proposal has entered the final stage, which is to ask about the date and time of the marriage. Li Shimin went straight to the subject, Yang's eyes were listening with his ears erected. Wu Jue sighed that the female congress was not staying, and replied: "When does the emperor think?"

Empress Changsun answered, "How about the seventh day of the next month?"

Li Shimin pondered for a moment, but did not object. The seventh day of the next month is the Chinese Valentine's Day. The wedding ceremony must be very lively. Some women in boudoirs and men who have not yet married take advantage of this festival to seek a good couple.

"Chinese Valentine's Day!"

Li Kuan and Wu Shuo looked at each other, and they both thought this date was very good. It was better to get married on the traditional festival day than ever. Originally, Li Kuan planned to marry Wu Hui on his birthday, but it was delayed for another year. The second choice was this time. Empress Changsun said that they were in trouble, and both of them nodded.

Li Shimin and Yang naturally saw it, and nodded tacitly in agreement. Yang thought of Wu Jue and wanted to marry, and felt a little bit reluctant. It was only twenty days before the seventh day of July. It would be difficult for Wu Jue who married Wu Jue to come back from time to time. Besides, Wu Jue married Li Kuan as the Princess of Chu. , The status and status are completely different before and after. Yang is happy and sad at the same time. He finally hopes that his daughter will get married. He really feels unwilling to think of that day.

The date of welcoming the marriage is set, and the whole process of marriage proposal is completely over. The next step is to prepare for the big marriage of the two, including the wife’s dowry and other things. Yang also needs to prepare well and can't let others talk about it. Naturally leave.
