Hearing her say this, Yu Lan couldn't help but laugh.
Princess Linjia, who was sitting aside, looked at the portraits and lowered her head slightly, obviously feeling embarrassed.
Lin Jia and Zhao Hua have two completely different personalities, so they must like different men.
"Sister Huang, aren't you nervous?" She was very nervous.
When her mother-in-law mentioned marriage to her before, she had thought a lot about it, fearing that she would not live well if she married someone in the future.
"There's nothing to be nervous about. I'm more concerned about what to eat tonight than my marriage. I want to eat pig's trotters."
Lin Jia: "..."
Yu Lan: "..."
It turns out that the prince-in-law is not as good as the pig's trotters. It's really miserable.
"Sister Huang, don't you worry that your consort will treat you badly in the future."
Zhaohua smiled evilly, "Shouldn't it be my future consort himself who should be worried about this matter?" As for her, it is impossible for her to have a bad life. She is Princess Zhaohua, who dares to make her unhappy?
.
Lin Jia also laughed after hearing this.
It seems to be the case. With the character of the imperial sister, she is the only one who can bully others.
"These are the portraits that your imperial brother asked the Ministry of Ceremonies to send. You guys, take a good look, and Linjia, you should take a look too. Look at these two. This is something that both the Queen Mother and the Dowager are optimistic about." Yu Lan said.
From those paintings, two of the former concubines and empress dowagers were selected and placed in front of Lin Jia. One of them was naturally Lin Jia's consort in her previous life.
Sure enough, Lin Jia took one look, her eyes lit up, she twisted her handkerchief, lowered her head, and murmured: "I listen to the emperor's brother."
The implication is that I am satisfied.
Yu Lan smiled and nodded, "Okay, I will tell the Queen Mother and your brother your thoughts later."
Later, Zhao Chengji went to Shou'an Palace and finally decided on the consort of the two princesses.
The consort of Princess Zhaohua is the eldest son of the general's family. The consort of the second princess Linjia is the eldest grandson of Taifu Pei's family.
After deciding on the candidate, Zhao Chengji directly issued the imperial edict. The eunuchs around him went to deliver the edict.
"The imperial edict arrives——"
"By God's blessing, the emperor decreed that the imperial sister Zhaohua has outstanding appearance, gentleness and virtuousness. Now that she has reached the marriageable age, she should choose a consort. Lu Xun, the eldest son of the general's palace, is brave and good at fighting, and has a kind nature. He and Princess Zhaohua are a match made in heaven.
I wish you a happy marriage and will get married after the new year. I appreciate this."
The person who came to convey the order was none other than Eunuch Ji, the emperor's sidekick. As the emperor's beloved sister, having Ji Wen come to convey the order in person also showed that the emperor valued the princess.
At this moment, in the courtyard of the General's Mansion, Old General Lu led a family of young people to kneel down to receive the imperial edict. From the beginning to the end of listening to the imperial edict, everyone in the General's Mansion was confused.
Especially General Lu, who had a look of being struck by lightning. He turned around and glanced at his eldest son kneeling next to him, and couldn't see anything that stood out. Especially his appearance, which was ordinary and belonged to that kind of crowd.
A handful of looks.
After hearing that his eldest son was his consort, General Lu's first reaction was, impossible, absolutely impossible. If the consort was his youngest son, he would not be so shocked, but he would never have thought of his eldest son.
Thinking about it, I feel like a ghost. Apart from his martial arts skills, his son does not meet the royal standards for selecting a son-in-law from any aspect.
Not to mention him, even Lu Xun himself thought it was impossible.
After reading out the imperial edict, Ji Wen stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I still haven't accepted the edict."
