Chapter 53(1/2)
Granting a marriage to the Xue family and beating the Jia family
When they heard that the imperial edict had arrived, all the women in the Jia family were extremely surprised.
Do you think it was Baochai who sealed the concubine?
But didn’t you say early on that you were defeated for some reason?
Xue's mother didn't know why, so she quickly asked someone to stop the drama.
You asked your sister, Mrs. Wang, to help settle everyone in the Jia family.
No need to mention it.
Let’s just talk about the main hall of Lixiangyuan.
Xue Pan arranged for people to quickly set up the incense table.
When Xue's mother and Baochai arrived, they opened the middle gate and the whole family knelt down to welcome them.
Xia Bingzhong arrived on horseback, followed by more than a dozen internal prisoners.
All of them were so arrogant and majestic.
He did not dismount after entering the gate, and did not stop until he entered the main hall.
After getting off his horse, he walked to the hall with a smile on his face.
Standing facing south and facing north.
After the Xue family knelt down, he showed the imperial edict in his hand.
"The emperor is destined to be transported by heaven, and the edict says:"
The three members of the Xue family knelt neatly.
Everyone feels uneasy in their hearts.
But they have the same expectations.
Because the imperial edict came at this time, it was probably to canonize concubines.
Otherwise, the female family members of the back house will not be asked to take over other matters.
"There was a reporter from Jinke who visited Feng Yuan, editor of the Hanlin Academy. His talent was outstanding and his virtue was very sweet. I felt pity for his talent, felt his virtue, and wanted to bestow heaven's grace on him."
Not as a concubine, but as a favor to Feng Yuan?
What does this have to do with the Xue family?
None of the three ladies responded.
"I also heard that the Xue family has a daughter, Baochai, who is well-behaved and well-behaved, and has good etiquette."
What!
The three ladies were all astonished.
But each is different.
Xue Pan was still a little confused when he heard this.
Xue's mother was shocked, hoping that it would not be what she thought.
The person involved, Baochai, was in a daze.
"These two men are talented and virtuous, and they are a match made in heaven. We have specially decreed to marry them!"
"..."
Now Xue Pan understood, but he was happy and surprised.
Fortunately, my sister was granted marriage by the emperor.
This is a great honor for the Xue family!
At least it shows that the Xue family is still in the eyes of the emperor.
What surprised me was that I was given a marriage partner.
It was actually Feng Yuan who frightened him and was both civil and military!
There was no luck on Mother Xue's side.
If he wasn't still following the orders, I'm afraid he might be weak.
She was extremely impressed by Feng Yuan.
There are two impressions.
The first is what Xue Pan said.
This man beheaded hundreds of people just because of the trouble of transporting them.
This is cold blooded.
The second is what Mrs. Wang said.
This person repeatedly offended Jia Mu and the Supreme Emperor.
This is madness.
Therefore, in Xue's mother's impression, Feng Yuan was a cold-blooded and rebellious person.
If we take Baochai, will the Xue family still have a good life?
Baochai hasn't recovered yet.
Baochai didn't hear what was said behind the decree.
None of that matters anymore.
The important thing is...
She and Feng Yuan were granted marriage?
Although Baochai admitted that she had some affection for Feng Yuan.
But that's just some girly feelings.
Absolutely nothing like this!
But now think about this person.
Suppress the Japanese pirates first, and explore the flowers later.
He can be regarded as an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs.
At a young age, he was already an editor of the noble Hanlin Academy.
To say that the future is bright is an understatement.
Although my brother said that he had offended the Supreme Emperor.
But the marriage granted today shows that he is in the emperor's heart.
At least his career is safe.
Before Baochai could think clearly, she felt Xia Bingzhong suddenly pause.
He then said: "I admire this~!"
When the three members of the Xue family heard this, they all thought it was over.
Just as he wanted to thank him, Xia Bingzhong continued:
"Congratulations to the Xue family, and congratulations to Miss Xue. Your Majesty has sent me a special gift to congratulate you."
Following his words, some eunuchs came over one by one with gifts in their hands to offer them to them.
"One pair each of gold and jade Ruyi."
"'Luanfengheming' Dahonggong forged silk, 'Good match made in heaven' Dahonggong silk, four pieces each."
"Ten pairs each of gold and silver."
In response to the imperial gift, they all come in pairs.
The Xue family did not have time to think too much and instinctively shouted in unison:
"Everyone in the Xue family, thank Tianen!"
Xue Pan raised his hands above his head, received the imperial edict and stood up.
He placed it on the incense table respectfully, then turned around and clasped his fists towards Xia Bingzhong:
"I'm sorry to hear from you, Grandpa Xia, but I need to invite you all to have some wine to relieve your fatigue."
Following his words, a hundred taels of money order was stuffed into Xia Bingzhong's sleeve.
Although Xue Pan doesn't know how to do business.
But after all, we are a big family, so we still understand how to welcome and send off.
Xia Bingzhong glanced at it and was very satisfied.
