Wen Ling said before that she didn't want to stay in the capital when her fourth uncle's family was fine. Now that Anguo's mansion was fine, they would go back first when Sister Nuan got married and if the wedding date was later. If it was early, they would wait until Sister Nuan got married before going back.
But there is a lot of luggage, and Wen Qian plans to sort it out and pick some good things to add makeup to Wu Jingmei.
Wen Ling said "Ah" and then nodded: "Oh."
The two returned to their small courtyard.
Wen Qian began to rummage through the cabinets.
She went through her collection of jewelry and jewelry one by one.
"I don't know when Sister Nuan and Jingmei will get married, but I think Jingmei and the prince will get married soon. The prince seems to be going on an expedition. Their marriage is so urgent. It seems that Prince An's palace wants the prince to go on an expedition after they get married. "
Wen Qian couldn't help but think that Prince An was the emperor's nephew, so it was not impossible to postpone the expedition.
But King Jin must really want Sister Nuan to marry into Prince Jin's palace as soon as possible.
Wen Qian took out a set of facial expressions given to her by Nuan Nuan.
This ruby tiara was made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It was very exquisite and beautiful. It was the best set among her many jewelry pieces. She could not bear to wear it even once because she thought it was too expensive.
Wen Qian put it aside and planned to add makeup to Wu Jingmei.
"You said I would give you a set of hair and face to add makeup to Jingmei. What else should I give? I'm afraid it's too late to embroider a screen. How about making a set of clothes?"
Wen Ling took a look and said, "Sister, are you adding makeup to Sister Jingmei's headdress with this set? This is the best of all the jewelry you have! And it was made by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It will be kept as a dowry in the future. It will be very useful when you go to your husband's house. face?"
And if my sister didn’t want it, why didn’t she think of giving it to me
"I just think it's more appropriate to give it to Jingmei."
Wen Qian picked another pair of mutton-fat white jade bracelets, which were also given to her by Nuan Nuan, and planned to add makeup to Lin Tingya.
Wen Ling looked at the things she picked out and pouted: "Sister, you are so generous!"
I have never seen her be so generous to her own sister.
Wen Qian rolled her eyes angrily: "These things are so expensive, and it's not convenient for us to wear them when we go back to Ningyuan County. Instead of packing them at the bottom of the box, we might as well give them to Jingmei and Tingya. They always have to attend some banquets in Beijing, so it's just right." Use it."
Having said this, Wen Qian glanced at Wen Ling and said, "You should also pack your luggage. For some items that are not commonly used, you can ask the caravan to transport them back first."
Hearing this, Wen Ling twisted her handkerchief and said hesitantly: "Sister, I think we should stay in the capital! You are right. It would not be good for us to leave before our fourth uncle's family is out of danger! Besides, now Fourth Aunt wants to make cotton-padded clothes for the soldiers in the military camp, so we can help a little by staying here."
When Wen Qian heard this, she raised her head and looked at her deeply: "Are you not afraid anymore?"
Wen Ling hesitated for a moment: "I'm still afraid, but I can't go back on my word and leave my fourth uncle's family behind! Besides, my sister is quite old. Because of her previous marriage, there won't be any good men for her when she returns to Ningyuan County. If you choose, it’s better to stay in the capital.”
Wen Qian looked at her closely: "Do you really think so? If I tell you to stay, you will probably face what happened before again. The power struggle in the capital is beyond our imagination. You don't know this time either I got involved unknowingly, and something like this may happen again in the future!”
Wen Ling hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Well, I will be more careful in the future. I want to stay! Fortunately, we haven't told our fourth uncle's family that we are leaving."
Wen Qian rolled her eyes inwardly. It had only been a few days since her fourth uncle's family had saved the day, and she had no shame to say she was leaving!
It was because she had made a fuss about leaving before that she agreed.
Wen Qian knows Sister Mo Ruo and Sister Ling's thoughts.
I just need to talk to my fourth aunt to find a marriage partner for Sister Ling. Don’t go to those wealthy families, but find an ordinary merchant, where you can have enough food and clothing, and live a stable life.
With her temperament and brains, if she married into an official family, she was afraid that her whole family would be affected!
Besides, she was too timid to experience strong winds and waves.

September 9th, Double Ninth Festival
Warm and hairy days.
Early that morning, the door to Duke Anguo's mansion was opened wide.
One luxurious carriage after another stopped outside the gate of Duke An Guo's Mansion.
One by one, ladies in gorgeous clothes were invited in.
This time, the Queen Mother will be in charge of Wen Nuan and Ji Zhengbin.
The tribute goes to Princess Ning.
Yousi is Princess An.
The praiser was Wu Jingmei, who mainly assisted the Queen Mother in saluting.
The deacons are: Wen Qian, Lin Tingya, and Han Gengyu.
The expelled person is the wife of the Minister of Hubu.
Mrs. Hube Shangshu came over before dawn to help set up the venue.
At the beginning of the haircut ceremony, the band of the Taiyue Department of the Ministry of Rites played light and sweet music in a corner.
Wen Jiarui and Wu stood on the east steps waiting for the guests; Prince An and Princess An stood under the west steps holding a tray. After a warm bath, wearing light blue clothes and pink shoes, she sat in the east room and waited.
The Queen Mother came slowly, and the spectators waiting outside all around saluted.
Only then did they realize that the guest of honor for Princess Hui'an's wedding ceremony was actually the Queen Mother!
The most noble woman in the world!
No, for Princess Hui'an's hairpin ceremony, the Queen Mother is the guest of honor. Princess An is serving the tray to Princess Hui'an, and it is Princess Ning who is giving the compliment!
The Eighth Princess and Ji didn't get this treatment back then!
After all, the Queen Mother was the master at that time.
Wen Jiarui and Wu immediately stepped forward to greet the Queen Mother. They were three steps away from the Queen Mother and saluted respectfully: "Blessed Queen Mother!"
The Queen Mother smiled and said: "No need to be polite!"
The Queen Mother took a look around and saw that the venue was well decorated and was decorated according to the hairpin ceremony of the princess and princess.
Mrs. Hube Shangshu did a good job!
Wen Jiarui made a gesture of invitation towards the seat of the guest of honor on the steps: "Please take a seat, Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother nodded.
He walked over slowly, climbed up the stairs, and sat down at the guest's seat.
Then, Princess Ning stood up and said loudly: "Please come in while watching!"
The guests waiting outside the venue began to enter the venue one by one and sat in the viewing seats.
The seventh prince, Prince An, Prince Ning, Han Gengmo, Ning Huaijie and others walked in first, followed by the married ladies and young ladies.
Everyone was wondering, why didn't they see King Jin
After all the guests watching the ceremony were seated, Wen Jiarui and Wu were about to take their seats when the emperor walked in.
When everyone saw the emperor in plain clothes, they were surprised and stood up to salute.
The emperor immediately stopped him loudly: "No need to be polite! Sit down, sit down quickly!"
Everyone sat down after hearing this.
Wen Jiarui and Wu welcomed the emperor to the throne.
Mrs. Hube Shangshu immediately asked someone to bring another chair.
After the emperor sat down, the queen mother said angrily: "Why is the emperor here?"
These four countries were about to wipe out the Nalan Kingdom. She was worried that the day when her son would marry would be far away!
And he, the emperor, still has time to watch the ceremony, is he too free
