Chapter 709: Marrying
Qiu Li stared blankly at the public office of the palace who had announced the imperial edict and left with great silence. She looked stunned and exclaimed for a while: "Ah?"
Gu Xiang: "..."
She was a little confused at first, but she felt that the world was unpredictable. When she saw Qiu Li's appearance, she burst into laughter.
Since Gu Xiang spoke out in the palace to make a marriage, before the man returned to the princess's mansion, the yellow gate with the marriage imperial edict had come first.
Fortunately, Gu Xiang was not blocked in the palace gate and announced the imperial edict.
If this is true, Gu Xiang would think that this was not a marriage grant from His Majesty, and that he would give her a face to Zhao Ying, just to rob her of a robbery.
Gu Xiang remembers reading books in the past. Many novels say that in ancient times people lived very slowly, and they had to delay something in the court for a long time.
A small matter can be completed in a month, so it is already very fast.
But now Gu Xiang has experienced it personally and wants to tell later generations that in ancient times, people from the court to the people, many of them were very slow, but once the royal family decided to do things quickly, the speed was also amazing.
Even when talking about her marriage, I don’t know what Zhao Ying used to do, Nacai, Nazheng and Naji were all done at the fastest speed. Even Gu Xiang couldn’t react a little.
There is only a little trouble. His Majesty named her a princess. Normally, Gu Xiang would never marry Zhao Ying no matter what.
Fortunately, Gu Xiang refused to give up the surname Gu and still wanted to be the daughter of Gu Laoshi and Jiang. No matter how unhappy His Majesty was, he could only compromise. Moreover, there was a precedent for this matter. Princess Yingying, the adopted daughter of Taizu, married Emperor Taizong.
It was the real uproar at that time. If it weren't for the chaotic times, those civil officials would have weak legs when they saw Emperor Taizu, and they might have had a bigger sensation.
However, this old example has played a big role now. If it weren't for the previous example, Zhao Ying would have to ask His Majesty to take him out.
At that time, the emperor almost gave this guy a successor after hearing Zhao Ying's words.
If it weren't for the fact that Prince Zhaocheng had only one son, the emperor was afraid that the late emperor and his uncle would give him a stick to educate him, he would have to follow the meaning of this brat.
Gu Xiang remembered the accident and smiled: "It's also very exciting."
I don’t know how novelists in later generations would describe her marriage with Zhao Ying.
Maybe there will be many wonderful imaginations?
Gu Xiang couldn't help but feel a little unreal and illusory.
In a blink of an eye, the second day is the day of the wedding.
It had just snowed, and under the snow light, the window flowers of "Gu Ji" seemed to have a different kind of gentleness and brightness.
Gu Xiang sat in the kitchen and watched Lao Du and the others make pastries. This time, "Gu Ji" changed the appearance of pastries with simple appearance and strived for exquisiteness in every piece of pastries.
Lao Du and the others even prepared a lot of gold foil and decorated those colorful desserts.
Gu Xiang personally drew laces on the mold and carved the words "Happy" and took the opportunity to create a batch of special snacks for wedding events. I think many people will like it.
Just as they were having fun, Le'er and a few hurriedly entered the door. Although they did not frown, they were smiling each other, but their expressions were inexplicably tight.
Gu Xiang raised his eyebrows: "Someone is here to cause trouble?"
She had good hearing, but in fact she just vaguely heard noises outside.
Le'er and the others didn't speak for a moment. Qiu Li pushed the door from behind and smiled and said, "A little thing is that there are mad dogs barking there outside. Our little persimmon has already yelled back for us. Make sure that these idiots who are causing trouble will not dare to come to the door again."
Gu Xiang smiled, but he didn't expose Qiu Li and the others.
Qiu Li sighed: "Our dowry has been sent to the Duke's Mansion now... Well, I'll go to the Prince's Mansion."
According to the custom at this time, the day before the wedding, the bride must first go to the man’s house to set up a new house and send part of the dowry.
The new house has been arranged long ago, and all of them are drawn by Gu Xiang these days. Even the patterns on the furniture were made by Zhao Ying personally and sent them to her home for Gu Xiang to see. As for the dowry, Gu Xiang didn't have to worry too much.
In addition to "Gu Ji", her dowry was also the dowry left to her by Princess Changrong. His Majesty personally sent a batch of cages. In addition to adding makeup to her, Princess Changrong also had jewelry and jewelry. In addition, the inner palace prepared for the princess according to the etiquette system.
Even if you try your best to say less, Gu Xiang’s dowry is worth at least several million.
If the princess’ dowry when she got married was to follow her standards, then no matter how rich the court was, it would probably not be enough.
Wow, wow, wow!
Before Gu Xiang and the others finished speaking, they heard a barking dog, and then someone shouted loudly: "You are selling snacks, just this rags, and you have the nerve to sell them. Our county lord will marry His Royal Highness next month. I'm really unaware of it. I bought you rags and lost the face of the prince at the wedding. I see what you use to compensate!"
Qiu Li's color changed suddenly.
Gu Xiang simply got up and went out, walked through the bamboo forest to the front, looked at the little lady who was protected by a group of servants, and smiled and said, "I am so ignorant. I don't know that I have more princes. Well, let me see."
His eyes swept over the snacks that were knocked out in front of those people, and raised his eyebrows and exclaimed softly, "The Yangchun Baixue series that the Empress Dowager just praised is all ragged? It seems that this person thinks the Empress Dowager's eyes are broken, well, and his tongue is broken, so he has to ask the imperial doctor, why did he miss the diagnosis of the empress dowager's pulse these days?"
In an instant, the little lady and the servants over there stopped the sound and turned around without saying a word.
Qiu Li exhaled and smiled, "It's still the majesty of the little lady."
Gu Xiang laughed: "It's just a fox that pretends to be a tiger."
"That's so exciting."
The little lady who came here today was the daughter of Princess Yule who met Gu Xiang in the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace that day.
I can only say that Zhao Ying is a popular person. Now that she has fallen into her mouth, people naturally look at her and are not happy.
Since the imperial edict for His Majesty to marry her and Zhao Ying was released, Princess Yule was so angry that she said a lot of ugly words, and she was even more disliked. Gu Xiang was obviously not familiar with this person at all. On those times whenever she went out to a banquet, she would always meet this person. The other party said a lot of ugly words sarcastically. Unexpectedly, this daughter came to the door to provoke her, and I don’t know where the confidence came from?
"Depending on what she meant, was she going to marry Fang Muwen?"
Gu Xiang was a little surprised, "It seems that this fake prince is very active in the capital?"
The information she compiled, the information collected by the Imperial City Division, and the experience of the imperial envoy Hua Mantao and Di Yahuai. These were told to the emperor as soon as possible that the emperor had the Imperial City Division, and only knew more than Gu Xiang, and no less than her.
