Chapter 115 Marriage(1/4)
They were all talkative women, but after the two women upstairs sat together, they started talking naturally.
"Chonglou, guess who I met in the palace before coming." Sitting in front of her piano, Princess Qianchen asked her in a mysterious way.
"Yunxi?" she asked with a smile.
"You really guessed it right, this is so boring." Princess Qianchen pouted, looking very cute.
Jin Sheng smiled faintly. What's hard to guess? She didn't know many people in the palace. If it were Lord Su, there would be nothing to ask. It would be normal for her to meet her. They had known each other for a long time.
Apart from Lord Su, it is Gu Yunxi. Xiangjun is not in the palace now, so there is only Yunxi.
"How is she doing now?" She asked with concern, and didn't know what Gu Yunxi and Princess Qianchen said, "I shouldn't say anything, after all, she was used to talking about her right and wrong to others."
"She is so pitiful now. I heard she has miscarriage."
"How could it be miscarried?" Gu Jinsheng was a little surprised and asked with concern on his face.
"I don't know this anymore. I heard that I fell from the bed and then accidentally gave birth."
Gu Jinsheng said with some distress: "She must be very helpless in the palace alone."
Princess Qianchen nodded quickly: "Isn't that the case? I think she is a little pitiful when I see her. She told me that she missed home and wanted to see you. She also asked me to send you a message and want you to enter the palace. I have promised her that I will give you a palace card another day, so you can enter the palace to see her at any time."
"Then I'll thank the princess here." Gu Jinsheng's mouth slightly pulled, and it seemed that Princess Qianchen knew nothing.
Sometimes it’s good to be innocent. Such a simple princess Qianchen should be well protected in the palace.
Princess Qianchen, who is well protected, is afraid she will not be able to adapt to a complicated waiting place like Guoan Hou Mansion, because when she comes here, no one will protect her, and even the royal family behind her cannot fully protect her.
The eldest brother needs a wife with his own abilities so that she can support the backyard well. Although she is in charge of the family now, she will get married one day, and everything here needs to be handled by her future sister-in-law.
For a moment, she thought that the princess was good to give Brother Yanjing, so she now gave up this idea.
Yanjing is the eldest son of the Guoan Hou Mansion. His wife should not be an innocent person like Princess Qianchen. Even if he is loved by his elder brother, he will not be able to survive in the Guoan Hou Mansion.
Although it is a little clever, that little cleverness is not enough.
When she heard her mention Lord Su and said she liked civil servants, she guessed that she probably liked Lord Su. She thought too much that she had nothing to do with her elder brother.
When I came to see her, I didn’t necessarily like her. Maybe I wanted to know what kind of woman Mr. Su liked was.
The two of them chatted, and they were very happy.
The princess wandered around her attic, looked up and down, and said: Chonglou, I have discovered that you actually like plain colors, especially white ones. What's the best? They are not dirt-resistant.
I can't even find a bright color. Although it looks refreshing and clean, I always feel that there is something missing.
Jin Sheng looked at the pink clothes she wore. She used to like bright colors, but that was already the past.
Princess Qianchen accidentally encountered the shoes she placed on the table, and half of the shoes were made in the basket next to her, which were men's shoes.
"Chonglou, are you making shoes for Lord Su?" She raised her smile and asked her, feeling a little sad.
She could make shoes for Lord Su, but she didn't even dare to think about it.
"Well, the weather is about to get colder. Make some warmer boots for the third master."
"I'm really smart and skillful, I'm really inferior to you in this regard."
"I just learned to be an embroiderer, and I didn't do it very well."
"I'm fine, I'll learn from it in the future."
"It's good to learn, but when you become a relative in the future, you can be your future son-in-law."
Princess Qianchen smiled and didn't say anything.
The future prince consort was the third master, but now the third master is gone, she doesn’t know who else she can like.
Time passed without realizing it, Princess Qianchen didn't stay for a long time, so she said goodbye first on the excuse that she had something to do.
Jin Sheng did not keep her, but just called her servant to call Brother Yanjing to escort the princess back to the palace.

I came to see Gu Jinsheng once, but I couldn't say I was very happy. I felt so sad that I left the mansion and got on the carriage.
Lord Su can wear shoes made by Gu Jinsheng, he must love her very much.
It must be loved, otherwise, how could such a person get engaged to her?
Why isn't she? To this day, I don't think she is far behind her. If I must say that she is far behind, at most, she may really be better than her appearance. But the Lord Su she knows has never been a person who is greedy for beauty!
The day after this incident, the emperor issued an imperial edict, one to the Guoan Hou Mansion, one to Princess Qianchen, and one to the General Administration during the morning court. This imperial edict caught everyone off guard.
In accordance with the heavens, Emperor Zhao said that Gu Yanjing, the eldest son of the Guoan Hou Mansion, had outstanding character and majestic martial arts, which made me very happy. Now it is time to marry, I should choose a virtuous daughter and a match. My princess Qianchen is still in the boudoir, and she is a beautiful woman with the Lord Tong. She is specially given the marriage to Princess Qianchen and the Lord Tong. All etiquettes will be handled by the Ministry of Rites to choose a good date to get married! I am here.
"Mr. Duke, why don't you accept the order quickly?" The father-in-law who announced the order whispered to Gu Yanjing, who seemed to have not come back to his senses.
The emperor's imperial edict has been issued in front of all civil and military officials. If he does not accept the order, where will the emperor's face be put?
Gu Yanjing stepped forward and knelt down: "I will receive the order and thank the emperor for his kindness." Having said that, there was no more color on his face. The marriage was suddenly, and he was not prepared at all.
I just met Princess Qianchen yesterday, why did I give him a marriage today?
It’s not that he didn’t know Princess Qianchen. He often went in and out of the palace, but there was no reason not to know. The emperor had several princes and daughters, but he had studied with the princes of the unknown. Princess Qianchen was a woman, and she was often in the harem and was not familiar with it.
Gu Yanjing felt mixed feelings, and the ministers from all walks of life immediately congratulated each other. He forced the corner of his mouth and smiled a little stiffly. After the ministers congratulated him, Gu Yanjing stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to ask."
"Mr. Duke said that."
"I have passed away less than a year. I am mercenary during my mourning period and ask for a marriage after the mourning period."
"I allow you to be filial for a year and get married after one year."
In the northern country, my mother passed away and stayed for one year, my father passed away and stayed for three years.
He wants to keep filial piety, and the emperor naturally has the right to do so.
If you do not obey filial piety, you will be regarded as a traitor.

On this day, Princess Qianchen, who received the same imperial edict, was also confused.
I couldn't believe my ears. Why did the emperor give her to Lord Dutong? I never asked her about her opinion.
The imperial edict has been issued, but there is no reason to take it back casually.
Princess Qianchen naturally couldn't be happy. Soon after, she hurried out of her palace with a dark face and went to find the emperor.
She wanted to ask why she suddenly gave her a marriage?
My father loves her so much, why didn’t he discuss such a big deal with her?
Although even Prince Han's marriage was decided by his father, he still felt very confused.
This marriage was not what she wanted.
When she hurried over, the emperor had already left the court. After a long morning court, he was tired, so he sat down, drank the bird's nest porridge, and replenished his body.
"Father, Father." Princess Qianchen hurried in, her tone and her steps were also fast.
The emperor laughed: "Look, I'm happy about you. Are you satisfied with the marriage I gave you?"
Princess Qianchen felt so stuffy that her father actually thought she should be satisfied with the marriage?
"Father, I don't like Lord Dutong, I don't want to marry him."
"I have issued three imperial edicts in front of all the civil and military officials in the court."
"Why don't you like Lord Tutor? Lord Tutor is young and promising. I love him very much. Don't worry if you marry him."
Princess Qianchen was so optimistic about Master Dutong. She was anxious and blurted out: "I, I already have someone I like."
"who?"
"Mr. Su, Lord. " She said a few words in a row, her tone was a little anxious, and the emperor's face darkened.
"Nonsense, Lord Su has a fiancée."
"I can be a concubine."
"No, how can my princess be a concubine with others?" I was really angry at her words, and the emperor started coughing violently. His body was not very good recently, and coughing is common. Once he is excited, he is more likely to cough.
Princess Qianchen's eyes turned red: "I don't care whether it's a wife or a concubine. I like Lord Su. I have liked her since I was a child. I have met his fiancée. He is a very good woman. She will definitely accept me and I will let her accept me."
"You, you really want to piss me off to death. As a concubine, where do you let me put my face?"
"My imperial edict has been issued. Do you ask me to take back the imperial edict? What do you ask the civil and military officials in the court to think of me? You have no jokes, how can you take back the life? Don't mention another word about Lord Su, so as not to humiliate Lord Dutong and embarrass your face."
"You go back to me, and when the Lord Duke is filial, you will get married immediately."
The emperor was also very angry. He wanted to be a wife with others. Although Lord Su is good, Lord Tuan is not bad. It is not better to be Lord Tuan's wife.
Never said such harsh words to her, Princess Qianchen looked at him, turned around and ran out, covering her face and crying.
Guoan Hou Mansion.
Early in the morning, all the slaves in the mansion came out with their masters. When the imperial edict came from the palace, everyone would kneel down to greet them. Seeing the edict was like seeing the emperor.
Gu Caihua knelt down and received the imperial edict. He didn't have to go to the morning court, and he was not going out as dark as others.
Gu Caihua was very happy to receive such an imperial edict.
