Chapter 65
Sure enough, early the next morning after Liang Huanqing returned to the mansion, Eunuch He came to the general's mansion with the imperial edict.
Liang Fengmian and Liang Ji went directly to the military camp after the morning court. Only Uncle Liang, Liang Huanqing and Qin Ruilan were staying at home.
As soon as the guard at the gate of the mansion informed him, Uncle Liang came out with a group of people.
"Steward Liang, how are you? How are you?" When Eunuch He saw Uncle Liang, he greeted Uncle Liang with a smile.
Uncle Liang cupped his hands in a bow and said, "Everything is fine. If you have anything to do, the manager is worried about me. Please come in."
Uncle Liang led Eunuch He and others to sit down in the main hall, and ordered the servants at home to make tea. The master and young master in the mansion were not here. He often received visiting officials, and he was already used to it.
Eunuch He was not in a hurry. After he sat down with a smile, he carefully looked at the main hall of the General's Mansion. He pointed at an old and damaged place and smiled at Uncle Liang: "Steward Liang, you have to ask someone to replace it quickly.
, the grand and majestic General's Mansion, the residence of a first-rank minister of the imperial court, should be more beautiful."
Uncle Liang smiled and said: "The master is a military general. He has never been extravagant and wasteful, and he doesn't pay much attention to these small details. Since it can still be used, I will make do with it. The master said that every penny counts.
The wealth of the people and the anointing of the people should be spent on the edge of the sword.”
As he said that, he raised his eyes and looked at the few young eunuchs behind Eunuch He. The leader was holding a long purple nanmu tree, and he didn't know what it was.
Eunuch He laughed twice, raised his finger and pointed at Uncle Liang, shook his head and said with a smile: "General Liang is really a breeze on both sleeves and dedicated to the people! If our country can have more good officials like this, let alone the emperor's leisure."
A lot, even the common people benefit from it!"
Uncle Liang smiled and nodded.
Eunuch He noticed the way Uncle Liang looked at the box, and thought that after the pleasantries were over, it was time to get to the point: "Is Miss Liang at home?"
Uncle Liang knew that Eunuch He came to the house to find Liang Huanqing, otherwise there was nothing happening in the house recently that required Supervisor He to go there personally.
"Miss's injury has not recovered yet. She took medicine last night and rested. The medicine is very strong and she has not woken up yet. When Manager He came, I had already sent someone to notify the lady in the hospital. I think she will be there soon." Uncle Liang smiled and apologized.
road.
Eunuch He smiled, held the white jade porcelain cup on the table, used the cup lid to brush off the tea leaves floating on the tea surface, blew it a few times, and said to Uncle Liang with a smile: "Then let's drink it first.
Tea, just wait a moment."
Uncle Liang also picked up the tea cup, smiled at Eunuch He and said, "Mr. He, please."
When Liang Huanqing came back yesterday, Qin Ruilan was the only one in the house. Liang Fengmian and Wei Shen had already returned to the military camp. She didn't think much about it. She had already become accustomed to her father and brother living in the military camp for several months.
The wedding was approaching, and Liang Huanqing was already nervous enough. Unexpectedly, Concubine Mei would also advance the wedding date, which made Liang Huanqing, who was already nervous, irritable for a while.
It stands to reason that Qi Jingqin saved her twice, and with his companionship during this period, she has already become attached to Qi Jingqin. Now that the wedding is coming, she should be happy, but she always remembers getting in the car to Qishan
, what Qi Jingqin said.
Everyone knows why Qi Jingqin married her, including herself.
Qin Ruilan saw that Liang Huanqing looked worried after she came back from the palace, so she quickly went to ask her. After asking, she found out that she was anxious because the wedding was approaching.
Qin Ruilan was just a girl who had lived in a boudoir for a long time and had no experience in this matter, so she had no choice but to talk with her until midnight before falling asleep.
When Eunuch He came, Liang Bo specially sent someone to invite him. After the maid who came to deliver the message left, Liang Huanqing sat on the edge of the bed, looked out the window, sighed, and said, "I didn't expect it to be so soon."
Qin Ruilan said comfortingly at the side: "What's wrong...I'm going to marry into the palace sooner or later anyway. Didn't I say that last night? Why are you still so worried today?"
Liang Huanqing lowered his head and said nothing. She was indeed happy with Qi Jingqin now, but what she was worried about was that Qi Jingqin still married her with that idea in mind. She felt it was unfair.
"You little girl, it seems to me that you like Prince Jing, and you pretend that you don't want to marry. Now that the imperial edict has arrived, you may be feeling happy!" Qin Ruilan didn't want to see her.
She looked gloomy, so he almost made fun of her.
As expected, Liang Huanqing was amused by her. He went over to scratch her waist and kept saying: "Who's so happy? Sister, just wait. When you get married, I will definitely laugh at you."
of!"
Qin Ruilan was naturally not to be outdone and said, "It's still early for me, I'll wait until you get married first!"
The two were laughing and playing on the bed. Qin Ruilan took care of Liang Huanqing's shoulder injury and quickly fell behind. Fortunately, Yuebai and Xiao'er came in with toiletries and a change of clothes, and then they pulled them apart and replaced the two.
While they were washing their clothes, they laughed at their childishness.
After Liang Huanqing and Qin Ruilan freshened up, they went to the main hall of the General's Mansion.
"I've met the two young ladies." When Eunuch He saw them coming, he stood up and bowed his hands in greeting. He had a smile on his face and looked very friendly.
"Eunuch He." Liang Huanqing and Qin Ruilan also smiled slightly and returned the favor.
Seeing Liang Huanqing returning the courtesy, Eunuch He pretended to be nervous and stepped forward to give him a hand, saying, "Oh, the young lady has broken this old slave. Now that the young lady is in trouble, you should pay more attention to her."
The people on duty in the palace always acted according to the prevailing situation. When Eunuch He saw that the emperor was issuing decrees repeatedly for the marriage of Liang Huanqing and Qi Jingqin, he also knew that Concubine Mei and the emperor were very concerned about this young lady, so he naturally wanted to curry favor with her in advance.
Liang Huanqing nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, Manager He, for your concern."
Eunuch He smiled, raised his hand to call to the eunuch who was holding the purple nanmu box behind him, took the box from his hand, opened it carefully, showed a roll of bright yellow cloth, and said with a smile to everyone: "Since the ladies are here, then
Just kneel down and accept the order."
When Uncle Liang saw that Eunuch He was here to convey an edict, he was confused. The edict of marriage had already been issued, and the wedding date had been set. It was just a matter of waiting for the wedding to come, and the General's Mansion and the Prince's Mansion would get married. This was another rumor.
What's the purpose?
Before Uncle Liang could think about it, Liang Huanqing led everyone to kneel in front, looking directly at the ground, and said: "My lord, I have received the order."
Eunuch He smiled, unfolded the imperial edict, and said loudly: "By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: I heard that Liang Huanqing, the daughter of General Jianwei Liang Fengmian, is skillful and generous, gentle and honest, and has outstanding appearance. Concubine Mei and I are very pleased to hear this. Today
The second son of the emperor, Qi Jingqin, is already weak. When he is ready for marriage, he should choose a virtuous girl and a match. When Liang Huanqing is waiting in the boudoir, she and the second son of the emperor, Qi Jingqin, are a match made in heaven. In order to become a beautiful woman, Liang Huanqing is specially betrothed to the second son of the emperor as the princess.
.All etiquette is jointly handled by the Ministry of Rites and the Qin Tian Jian. Because the Qin Tian Jian is watching the stars at night, the people on the border of the Celestial Empire are displaced and trapped by the war. The people are in dire straits. I have specially chosen the 27th of this month to get married.
Pray for the blessings of the people of heaven with royal happy events.
The announcement was made at home and abroad, and the envoys heard about it.
"I admire this"
After that, Eunuch He presented the imperial edict in front of Liang Huanqing and said with a smile: "Miss, please accept the edict."
Uncle Liang looked at Eunuch He with a surprised look. No wonder Eunuch He was beaming with joy as soon as he walked in. But why did he suddenly change the wedding date?
He looked at Liang Huanqing, who was kneeling straight in front of him with his head lowered. He thought that the reason why Concubine Mei sent the young lady to the palace yesterday was to talk about this matter. Prince Jing's group must have been too impatient! The young lady's injury was only healed, so they hurriedly rushed to the palace.
I want to welcome the young lady into the house.
Although Uncle Liang was only responsible for the affairs of the Liang Mansion, he was still the one who served Liang Fengmian. He had heard about the treacherous situation in the imperial court and the struggle for the throne. It seemed that the murder of the young lady a few days ago had stimulated Prince Jing's faction, so he was anxious to fight with him.
The Liang family arranged a marriage in order to reach a consensus as soon as possible.
But what does he, an old slave, control?
Liang Huanqing took the imperial edict with both hands, raised it to her forehead, knelt down and thanked her: "My daughter Liang Huanqing thanks the Lord for your kindness."
She was in a state of confusion now. Recalling Prince Jing's affectionate eyes, she was not sure whether he had given his heart or not.
Eunuch He watched Liang Huanqing take over the imperial edict, then smiled at Uncle Liang and said, "It's time to repair the old damage. By then, the civil and military officials from all over the dynasty will come to express their congratulations, so some superficial efforts are still needed."
Only then did Uncle Liang realize why Eunuch He was looking around and pointing at a worn spot. He could only nod and agree with a smile, but his eyes couldn't help but look at Liang Huanqing who was lost in thought while holding the imperial edict.
After sending Eunuch He away, Liang Huanqing's face remained as calm as water, and no one could guess what she was thinking.
