The Su clan followed Cheng's mother and praised Cheng Juren, praised him for learning high, praised him for his good character, praised him for his filial piety, and said, Su clan looked at Mrs. Qin again, "Mother, we Sister Jiu is also filial.” Su reminded Mrs. Qin that she should go and call Qin Jiu.

Mrs. Qin gave an order: "Mrs. Ning, you go and invite the three girls." She thought that she had to ask Qin Jiu to come over and take a look, and then care about it.

Cheng Juren's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but imagine what the daughter of the Hou Mansion looked like. However, I heard that there are at least seven or eight maids around the girls in the Hou Mansion...

Cheng Juren couldn't help but looked at the maid in Tsing Yi who was having tea just now, and his heart was hot: I only saw that the maid serving in Mrs. Qin's house was such a pretty face, and the maid who wanted to come to Miss Qin was also bad. Nowhere to go!

When Miss Qin San gets married to her family, if she is virtuous, she should choose a few dowry maids to give him a general house.

After taking the order, Mother Ning withdrew from the house.

Mother Ning went straight to Qin Jiu's Wanxiangyuan, and only said: "Three girls, Madam Madam will let you go to Ronghetang."

Qin Jiu was idle and fine. He was flipping through a free book. He was a little puzzled when he heard the words. It is only now, and there are still two hours before the evening, but he didn't say anything and got up.

Du Ruo prepared Qin Jiu's cloak and hand furnace as quickly as possible, and the master and servant followed Mother Ning on the road.

The cold wind of the twelfth lunar month was really bitter, and Qin Jiu shrank his whole person in a cloak studded with mink fur, and the hand stove in his hand was warm.

"Mother Ning," Du Ruo smiled and went to find Ning Ning, using her sleeve as a cover, and stuffed her with a silver shackle. "Doesn't the lady take a nap every day at this hour?"

Mother Ning didn't even look at the silver shackles, she only added the weight and felt very satisfied.

Anyway, there is nothing to say about this matter. Even if she doesn't say it now, the three girls will naturally understand when Rong Hetang passes by.

Mother Ning didn't struggle a little bit, she said straightly: "It was the wife and the wife who picked the house for the third girl. Today they invited the people to the house and let the third girl go over and take a look."

Mother Ning did not lower her voice, Qin Jiu naturally heard it too, raising her eyebrows speechlessly.

She naturally thought of the surname Cheng Juzi mentioned by Mrs. Qin last time.

She has already explicitly refused, are they still playing this one?

Madam Ning didn't notice Qin Jiu's abnormality at all, and she still said with a smile: "The slave maid congratulates the three girls. Cheng Juren is really good-looking, and he has learned well. That's really a hundred miles...no, pick one from a thousand miles! "

Mother Ning said this good thing, not only because she received Du Ruo's silver, but also because she wanted Qin Jiu to lead Mrs. Tai's kindness.

Who wants to--

Qin Jiao stopped and looked at Mother Ning with a smile, "Mother Ning, my foot hurts, so I won't go."

She didn't wait for Mother Ning to react, so she turned around, and the plum-red cloak on her body drew a beautiful arc with her turning, and the corner of the cloak flew like a butterfly.

Mother Ning's eyes widened. The third girl is walking gracefully, her steps are very steady, where is her foot pain! !

Mother Ning was anxious, and she wanted to chase her, but Du Ruo blocked her way.

Madam Ning could not guess that Qin Jiu was not satisfied with the marriage, so she could only persuade Qin Jiu's back in a good voice: "Three girls, Madam Tai is for your good."

"Three girls, the lady is waiting for girls!"

"Three girls..."

Mother Ning shouted louder and louder, but Qin Jiu drifted away, not to mention turning his head, he didn't even hesitate to slow down his steps.

The cold wind howled, making Mother Ning's face hurt.

Madam Ning has served Mrs. Qin for more than ten years, and none of the girls in this mansion respects, obeys, and pleases Mrs. Tai. Who dares to step on her face like this!

Mother Ning could only watch Qin Jiu's figure disappear in the corner in front of her.

Du Ruo also shook her veil and left. Mother Ning looked at Du Ruo's back and stomped her feet bitterly. She only felt that the silver shackle hidden in this sleeve was heavier than the weight, and she felt regretful in her heart. When she was green, she shut her mouth when she knew it, and said nothing.

It is inevitable for the daughter to know that the matter has come to an end, and Mother Ning could only return to Ronghetang in a desperate manner, and said tactfully: "Madam, the third girl is unwell..."

Mother Cheng frowned slightly, thinking that Miss Qin San was too delicate.

In the future, after she passes the door, I have to tune/teach/teach me well. As a woman, I feel unwell whenever I can!

Seeing Mother Ning came back alone, Mrs. Qin guessed something and felt helpless.

Hey, she knew that sister Ji'er was so angry that she said no two. Look, she is not happy.

Su's lips were pressed into a straight line, his eyes were as deep as a pool, and he secretly said: Qin Jiu, this cheap girl, is really unruly!

Su cried secretly in his heart: It's a pity, it doesn't matter whether Qin Jiao looks at it or not. She has no father or mother, and her grandmother decides her marriage. It is a matter of course and righteousness. No one can pick something wrong when it is passed on. It is useless even if Queen Wei opposes it!

As long as he can coax Mrs. Tai to respond, this marriage can be settled.

Su Shi smiled slightly, and Wen Sheng said to Mrs. Qin Tai: "Mother, the little girl's family, she has a thin skin, let her see what!"

"You feel good."

"You see Cheng Juren as a talent, I think it's good everywhere."

Su Shi kept talking.

Cheng Mu frowned, hearing what Su Clan meant, did the Hou Mansion feel that this marriage still needs to be considered? !

The Qin San girl did not show up, not because she was unwell, but she was showing off, or was she still dissatisfied with this marriage? !

Cheng Mu pulled out an arrogant sneer and snorted coldly: "It seems that the Hou Mansion doesn't look down on us, so we'll leave."

Humph! For a wild girl who grew up outside like the third girl of the Qin family, it is a blessing that has fallen from the sky to have a son who is willing to marry her!

This wild girl is so unruly now, the Qin family wants to marry, so she has to pay more for her dowry!

Cheng Muhuo stood up, as if to leave.

Cheng Juren also stood up, his chin raised high, his face haughty.

He sneered, and said: "The woman is so arrogant and so arrogant that she looks down on our Cheng family, we can't afford it!" He arched his hands casually, "Farewell!"

The last two words were spoken sonorously and arrogantly.

Mrs. Qin looked at Cheng's mother and son, almost dumbfounded and startled.

She originally thought this relationship was good, because Su said that the Cheng family was innocent and Cheng Juren was a young talent with a bright future. In Qin Jiao's situation, the marriage will be easier in the future.

To put it bluntly, it is not how good the Cheng family is, but the Hou Mansion is willing to take a high look at the Cheng family. Cheng Juren is also a down-to-earth elder. If the Hou Mansion wants to marry a girl, he still needs to look at their faces? !

The marriage hasn't been concluded yet, and the Cheng family has this attitude. If the Hou Mansion really marries the girl, wouldn't the Cheng family's mother and son go to heaven? !

Mrs. Qin's face also faded, and said lightly: "If this is the case, our Marquis will not force it."

She raised her hand and made a gesture, and said, "Mother Ning, see off the guests for me."

Su Clan was also taken aback. He didn't expect that with just a few words, the mother and son had made the scene so ugly.

It's really slowing me down! Su cried secretly in his heart, but only smiled on the face, and quickly persuaded Mrs. Qin Tai: "Mother, don't be angry! We have something to say, but it's just a misunderstanding."

Immediately afterwards, she persuaded Cheng's mother: "Mrs. Cheng's family stay. How can my niece look down on Linglang? Her little girl has a thin-skinned face, so she is embarrassed to come."

Su Shi squeezed a smile and said good things to each other, how could he have said the marriage.

Originally, Cheng Mu was acting, so she stayed a step and didn't say to go, but she didn't sit down either. She stood up straight and stood there, looking as if she wanted to see the sincerity of the Hou Mansion.

When Cheng Juren saw that Cheng's mother hadn't left, he didn't move, but he couldn't hide his disdain between his brows.

Su continued: "Mrs. Cheng, this important marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. My mother-in-law decides the affairs of my niece."

As she said, she looked at Mrs. Qin again, "Mother, don't you think?"

Su Shi stared at Mrs. Qin Tai expectantly, and wanted her to agree to this marriage. It would be better to exchange Geng Tie today. Then Qin Jiu knew it, and couldn't make any waves!

Mrs. Qin Tai slowly twisted the string of Buddhist beads in her hand without answering.

Seeing this, Su Clan was anxious, and scolded Cheng's mother and son for a **** spray.

She calmed down and continued to persuade Mrs. Qin: "Mother, this is a life-long event related to Sister Ji'er. This person wants to'look back'..."

In the presence of the Cheng family's mother and son, Su said tactfully, trying to remind Mrs. Qin Tai that in Qin Jiu's situation, if he missed Cheng Juren, he was afraid that there would be no better one in the future.

These similar remarks, these days, Su clan chanted in front of Mrs. Tai from time to time.

Now, under her deliberate reminder, Mrs. Qin hesitated again.

She thought to herself: The daughter-in-law said that this girl's family is no better than the man's. It doesn't matter if a man drags on for a few years, you can find a future before you get married. This girl’s Fanghua can’t afford it, she’s dragging her around, so she picked the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon...

Qin Zhuo saw that it was about to be late, and a girl as big as her in Beijing should have decided on someone long ago.

After all, what happened today is that Sister Ji’er was wrong first, and if Sister Ji’er came to Ronghetang, it wouldn’t be the case.

But even so, the words of the Cheng family’s mother and son are still unpleasant...

Mother Cheng could see Mrs. Qin Tai's hesitation, and her chin was raised even higher.

In her opinion, Mrs. Qin Tai's hesitation was taken for granted. After all, if they missed her son, where would their Qin family find a better son-in-law than their own son? !

Su Clan was still patient and continued to persuade Mrs. Qin Tai, feeling in his heart that as long as his family worked harder, this marriage would definitely be a success.

Just imagine, this Qin Jiu has no rules, no education, and no father or mother in the long room. She is the eldest daughter of a widow. What if she is guarded by a queen? ! Which better person in Beijing would marry a girl who has no precepts!

The Buddha beads in Mrs. Qin Tai's hand twisted slowly and slowly, making her feel a little embarrassed.

Seeing Mrs. Qin's late response, Cheng Juren felt as if he had been slapped again. He was ashamed and annoyed, and said coldly to Cheng Mu: "Mother, why should we be so humiliated here!"

With his talents, he must be able to go to high school. Not to mention the top three, it is not a problem. At that time, most of the noble ministers are willing to marry their daughters to him, so why bother to marry a vulgar, vulgar and ignorant. Girl!

As soon as his voice fell, the door curtain was knocked up from outside, and a little maid came in panting, and said to Mrs. Qin Tai directly: "Madam Tai, the imperial decree is here!"

Both Mrs. Qin Tai and Su Clan were shocked, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other subconsciously.

Except for the imperial decree that the emperor gave to the second prince and Qin Xin to marry him, Zhongyi Houfu had confiscated the imperial decree for many years.

The little maid took a breath and continued: "Duke Zhou said that the imperial edict is for the third girl!"

Mrs. Qin Tai and Su Clan looked at each other again, confused, and the same question emerged in their hearts: What imperial decree Qin Jiu would have?

In any case, since the imperial decree has come, the Qin family can do it only to accept the decree. The Su family immediately asked people to make an incense case, and then sent someone to pass on Qin Zhun and Qin Zening who were on duty.

The entire Hou Mansion was alarmed by this sudden imperial decree. Mrs. Qin Tai and Su Clan put on makeup, and the rest of the Qin family gathered from the courtyards to the Yimen in a hurry.

Originally, this Hou Mansion should respect Lord Hou Qin Zhun, but because this imperial decree was given to Qin Jiu, Qin Jiu knelt at the forefront. The others crowded behind her according to their status, and knelt down one after another. Bluestone bricks on the ground.

Zhou Xin received the imperial decree of the five-color silk woven cloud crane pattern from the accompanying little servant, and smiled kindly at Qin Jiu, as if saying, "Don't worry, it's good news."

After that, he slowly unfolded the imperial decree, dragging the long tone and began to recite the imperial decree: "To carry the emperor in heaven, the emperor said: I heard that Qin Jiu, the niece of Zhongyi Hou Qinzhun, is of outstanding appearance, gentle and gentle..."

Zhou Xin's shrill voice echoed slowly in the air.

The emperor first praised Qin Jiu in the imperial decree, and there were many beautiful words, and then he transferred the words to Gu Zezhi, the third son of King Duan.

Hearing this, most people in the Qin family knew what imperial decree this was. This imperial decree sounded the same as the previous emperor's imperial decree to the second prince and Qin Xin.

Sure enough, the next sentence of the imperial decree had already mentioned that Gu Zezhi was "at the time of getting married", and what Qin Jiu and Gu Zezhi could be called a perfect match.

Everyone present was dumbfounded, and they didn't know what to do. They heard Zhou Xin quickly read the last paragraph: "...special general Ru Xu with the third son of the king as his wife. Qin this!"

After the last word fell, the surroundings were silent and silent.

"..."

"..."

"..."

Everyone on the knees was so shocked that they did not recover for a while.

Even Qin Jiao himself was so shocked that his jaw was about to fall off.

The emperor gave her a marriage with Jin Thigh? !

Did she hear me right? !

Qin Jiao was already stupid, with a pair of apricot eyes staring round.

Seeing that Qin Jiao hadn't reacted for a long time, Zhou Xin cleared his throat and reminded Qin Jiao to take the order.

Qin Jiu came back to his senses, holding his hands up to accept the decree, and dryly said: "The courtier thanks the emperor to Longen."

After Qin Jiu took over the imperial decree, Du Ruo quickly helped his girl up. After all, it was freezing cold. It would be bad if the girl’s knee was frostbitten.

The other members of the Qin family behind were still kneeling stupidly, still feeling the illusion of being in a dream state. Suddenly, a cold wind came towards them, blowing a piece of remnant leaves that happened to hit Su's face.

Su felt his face hurt like a knife cut by the cold wind, and blurted out: "Impossible!"

How could the emperor give Qin Jiu a marriage! !

Qin Jiu can marry Cheng Juren, it is already a high climb, how could she marry into the Duan Palace! !

This is also Qin Xin's voice. Qin Xin turned pale, staring at Qin Jiao in front of him, almost squeezing his thigh. How could Qin Zhuo be married to Gu Zezhi!

Su Clan only felt that an inexplicable anger was rising. When his mind was hot, he blurted out and said, "Is it a mistake?"

"Sister Xin has given it to the second prince, and Sister Jiu is a younger sister. How can it be given to the third son of King Duan!! How can a sister give marriage to his uncle and nephew!!"

Zhou Xin looked at Su with a smile, with an undisguised mockery in her shrill voice: "Mrs. Hou, the second girl in your house is just a concubine, how can you compare with the third girl!"

What he meant was that Qin Xin was just the concubine of the second prince, the kind who couldn't even get on the jade, how could he have the right to discuss the seniority with Qin Jiu!

Qin Xin's face was even more ugly, as if he was slapped severely.

Su: "..."

Qin Zhun, who was next to him, glared at Su Clan, thinking that she could not speak.

The imperial decree for giving marriage has already been issued, and no matter how unwilling he is, he should happily accept the decree. Isn’t it embarrassing for the Su clan to pull Qin Xin out for some reason?

At this moment, Qin Zhuncai was slightly relieved from shock.

He remembered that King Duan and Princess Duan had just entered Beijing today, and they immediately entered the palace, and then only a few hours later the will to give the marriage came down. Could it be that King Duan and his wife came from the fief specifically for this marriage? This is too solemn!

"Congratulations to the three girls." Zhou Xin smiled and arched his hands to Qin Jiu in joy.

Qin Jiu, who was still a little confused, held the imperial decree in both hands, and after a few beats, he replied, "Tongxi, uh, Tongxi?" Hey, something is wrong!

Zhou Xin smiled more kindly, thinking that the three girls must be happy!

Du Ruo held her girl’s right arm and smiled and said to Zhou Xin: "Duke Zhou, don’t you know that the emperor’s decree for marriage came too timely, otherwise my girl almost let Madam Tai decide to go out. Up."

Du Ruo came out of Fengluan Palace, and he knew Zhou Xin very well, as if to say this jokingly, but Zhou Xin, and others like that, could not understand why.

Zhou Xin shook the silver whisk, glanced at Madam Qin, and said in a weird manner: "Who does Madam Tai want to assign the three girls to?"

Mrs. Qin looked a little embarrassed, remembering that the Cheng family's mother and son felt that they could not be on the stage.

Du Ruojiao smiled happily, and answered questions and answers: "A poor son named Cheng. I heard that today their mother and son were brought in by my wife personally. Unfortunately, the servants and maidservants have never seen it before. Wenqu star descends to the world, and he will surely be among the cabinet ministers in the future.

Qin Zening's expression in the back suddenly changed, and the expression in Su Clan's eyes became sharp, exuding a dangerous aura.

He was originally working as a errand today, so he hurried back because he wanted to take up the decree. At this moment, he knew there was such a thing!

Obviously the sister had already rejected this marriage last time, so the Su clan even made a fuss.

"Second aunt, what's the matter?" Qin Zening made no secret of his unhappiness, and directly questioned Su, "My sister's marriage, why don't I know about the elder brother?"

Su Clan was unhappy, but now that Qin Zening questioned him in front of Zhou Xin, it was even more irritated, and said sharply: "Brother Ning, how did you speak to the elders, is there any point..."

"Enough." Qin Zhun interrupted Su Clan, showing displeasure.

This Su Clan really didn't know what to say, and even if Zhou Xin was still there, she just yelled and screamed. If these words were passed to the emperor, what would the emperor think? !

Moreover, he has never heard of what is going on.

Su Clan's eyes dodged and looked away. She didn't tell Qin Zhun about Cheng Juren, because she knew that Qin Zhun had received the second prince's order and wanted Qin Jiu to kiss Beiyan.

The problem is, if the marriage is done, Qin Jiu will at least get the title of a princess or princess. Although it is only a false title, the Su clan is not happy!

She had to step on Qin Jiao's feet, and she had to see Qin Jiao's hard life in this life, in order to calm her heart.

Qin Zhun looked at Su's appearance, what else did he not understand, and said in his heart: There are more things than success!

It is true that family ugliness should not be publicized. In the face of Zhou Xin, Qin Zhun could only smile and said: "Duke Zhou, this is a misunderstanding. My mother doesn't know that the emperor wants to give sister Jiu a marriage. She thinks it is a good behavior, so she wants to see it first. After marriage, of course the Qin family dare not violate the holy will."

Qin Zhun pushed all Cheng Juren's affairs to Mrs. Qin Tai, who was Qin Jiu's first-in-law grandmother, and it was reasonable for her to marry her. Even the empress could not say that Mrs. Tai was at fault.

Mrs. Qin was not good at hitting her son's face on the spot, her lips pressed tightly, her face sinking like water.

The Su clan followed again and again, and said: "That Cheng Juren was an Asian Yuan who went on the first provincial examination. He is a young talent, has the talent of a group of people, and is handsome. The wife also thinks that this person is really good, so she would think about it. Let's talk to sister Jiu."

Until now, she could only say that, at least not to make the emperor feel that they were treating Qin Jiao harshly.

Su's heart is tired of Du Ruo. If there is a master, there must be a servant. If Du Ruo talked, how could Zhou Xin ask Cheng Juren?

Zhou Xin smiled very kindly, "If this is the case, then our family will meet."

Qin Zhun reluctantly smiled and said, "Duke Zhou, you are a busy man. Where can a mere jury be in the eyes of his father-in-law." Qin Zhun thought about it and knew what Su Shi had said to Qin Jiu to make his husband's family better!

He covered it with a sleeve, took a red seal and stuffed it into Zhou Xin's hand, only to be blocked by the opponent lightly.

"Master Hou, our family still has to see today." Zhou Xin smiled on his face, but there was an unquestionable strength in his tone.

Zhou Xin was the great **** next to the emperor, and it wasn't that Qin Zhun could offend the Zhongyihou who had already been marginalized in the court.

Upon seeing this, Qin Zhun could only retract Hongfeng in embarrassment, and ordered: "Go and call Cheng Juren."

Zhou Xin added: "Since Cheng Juren's mother-in-law is also there, let's call it together."

Qin Zhun: "..."

The mother looked at Qin Zhun and hurriedly led the way.

Not long after, Cheng Juren and Cheng Mu were brought over by the mother.

Cheng's mother was full of displeasure. As she walked, she whispered and said: "This Hou Mansion really doesn't understand the rules. We have been left there for so long, no one came to ask. In my opinion, this Hou Mansion girl Don’t marry."

"Mother is right." Cheng Juren raised his chin, his face was high, and he seemed to be looking at people from the corner of his eyes.

Qin Zening looked at the mother and son who didn't know the so-called almost crazy. What is this! Dare to tell his sister!

"..." Qin Zhun was also a little embarrassed.

Cheng Juren is a scholar at any rate. When I look at Zhou Xin’s appearance and dress, I know that this is the father-in-law sent by the emperor to deliver the decree. Moreover, depending on the service system of the other party, he is still a fourth-grade in-house servant. It should be served by the emperor and the former. .

Although this **** is an eunuch, he must be able to speak before the emperor.

From this point of view, this marriage is not too wronged.

Hey, Cheng Shiang is also a talented person, but unfortunately he has always suffered from not having Bole.

The girl Qin San had no ink in her chest, and she was almost too close, but seeing that the Hou Mansion and the **** next to the emperor were also able to talk to each other, it would not be such a downfall, if the Hou Mansion could help herself, If you say so much for yourself, even if you feel wronged, you can bear it. I just hope that Qin San is at least a beautiful girl, and no matter how bad she is, she must be a virtuous one.

While thinking about it, Cheng Juren quickly glanced at the neighbors of the Hou Mansion, but he didn't dare to look more.

"Father-in-law." Cheng Juren bowed his hand to Zhou Xin with restraint, which was regarded as a salute.

Su Clan hurriedly said: "Duke Zhou, this is Cheng Juren. He is a scholar. He spends his time studying and he is a little bit bad at speaking..."

She grinned reluctantly and her tone was stiff, and she was almost unable to make up, who was always good at speaking.

Qin Zhun was about to be unable to maintain the smile on his face. If Zhou Xin hadn't been there, he would have liked to slap Su Clan down.

Zhou Xin listened with a smile and said with a smile, "It sounds good."

Both Qin Zhun and Su Clan breathed a sigh of relief.

At the next moment, Zhou Xin turned to Yufeng again: "I heard that Madam still has a woman waiting in her boudoir. Since the emperor has given the three girls a marriage, Cheng Juren is so'outstanding' by birth, so this good marriage is still Give it to Madam’s biological daughter, lest it go to waste."
