Now this situation is beyond their control. The only thing they can do is to bite the bullet and continue!
"His Royal Highness, Miss Niu Xiuxiu, please come this way!"
In this way, the official of the Ministry of Rites walked ahead cautiously and took the two people to the next step of the ceremony.
At the same time, the officials in charge of presiding over the meeting hurriedly sent people to notify His Majesty Li Er and Queen Changsun.
The last item on the agenda of this concubine selection meeting was to serve tea and ask questions.
As long as His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun are satisfied with the woman chosen by the prince and drink the tea offered by her, then the marriage will be settled.
When His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun came to the stage, they almost couldn't stand it!
Although the two tried their best to restrain their facial expressions, their constantly trembling eyes betrayed their true inner thoughts.
They may not have felt anything in the stands just now, but now that they see Niu Xiuxiu in person at such a close distance, the couple is really stressed out!
In front of Niu Xiuxiu, His Majesty Li Er and Queen Changsun were like malnourished little bean sprouts...
"Chengqian, this is your choice, are you sure?"
His Majesty Li Er asked seriously, but the hands in his sleeves were trembling...
"Yes, father, mother, the child has been decided!"
Li Chengqian said respectfully.
Although Li Chengqian had made many conjectures before, now that he was facing His Majesty Li Er, he still felt a little guilty.
If you guess wrong, wouldn't you lose everything?
His Majesty Li Er glanced at Niu Xiuxiu, and his left eyelid suddenly jumped uncontrollably, but fortunately it was only for a moment and no one saw it.
"Okay, Dad told you before that no matter what choice you make, Dad will respect you."
His Majesty Li Er said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Li Chengqian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at Niu Xiuxiu who was as big as him next to Li Chengqian, His Majesty Li Er asked: "Niu Xiuxiu, are you willing to become Chengqian's concubine?"
"This matter is entirely decided by His Majesty."
Niu Xiuxiu lowered her eyebrows and said with a nod.
His Majesty Li Er and Empress Changsun looked at each other deeply, both seeing the other's helplessness.
In the following process, His Majesty Li Er and Empress Chang Sun were like two stiff puppets. When everything was over, His Majesty Li Er quickly fled the scene with Empress Chang Sun.
Finally, Li Chengqian's concubine selection meeting ended in a very weird atmosphere.
In this way, Niu Xiuxiu naturally became Li Chengqian's crown princess, the future empress of the Tang Dynasty.
"The latest news is that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's concubine selection meeting ended with Niu Xiuxiu!"
This news spread rapidly in Chang'an City as if it had wings, and most people were surprised and confused.
No matter what other people's mood is, Niu Jinda's heart is already blooming with joy.
He never imagined that his daughter would become the crown princess just like that.
For this reason, Niu Jinda directly announced that he would hold a banquet that would last for more than half a month!
"Haha, I finally stood up!"
"I want to see who dares to look down on me, old cow!"
For the next few nights, Niu Jinda couldn't sleep well because he would always wake up laughing in his dreams.
Regarding Li Chengqian's princess, all the civil and military officials in the dynasty felt a little confused.
But in the eyes of the common people, they felt that the prince had made a pretty good decision.
In the eyes of many people, Niu Xiuxiu's figure and appearance are not ugly, but she is very blessed!
In their opinion, those women with slim waists and delicate bodies are too sick and not as healthy as Niu Xiuxiu.
Moreover, because Li Chengqian chose Niu Xiuxiu, his reputation as a prince among the people has actually continued to rise!
After receiving the news, His Majesty Li Er showed a happy smile.
It seems that making Niu Xiuxiu the crown princess is not a bad thing.
…
After half a month of busy work, Li Chengqian also completed all the arrangements for his marriage.
Royal study room.
"Daddy, I want to take Xiuxiu to Sujiazhuang and let her meet the teacher!"
Opposite His Majesty Li Er, Li Chengqian said respectfully.
"Okay, you go ahead."
His Majesty Li Er didn't say much, but agreed directly.
After so many days, he had almost accepted reality.
"Yes, thank you daddy!"
In this way, Li Chengqian left Chang'an City with Niu Xiuxiu and went straight to Wannian County with great joy.
Half an hour later.
Wannian County, Sujiazhuang.
After more than a month of renovation, Sujiazhuang has completely changed. Everything looks clean, decent and grand!
The houses are scattered in an orderly manner, the streets are neat and uniform, and are paved with fine blue and white slates. Even the vegetation on both sides of the road has been carefully taken care of.
Regardless of the layout or style, they are all low-key, yet reveal such a hint of high-end!
"Sure enough, the teacher's vision is still as high as that of Jin. Now Sujiazhuang can be regarded as a real fairyland on earth, right?"
Li Chengqian praised.
When Niu Xiuxiu first came to Sujiazhuang, she felt that everything here was so mysterious and she felt very nervous.
"Your Highness, do you think the Protectorate Guild is satisfied with me?"
Niu Xiuxiu asked anxiously.
Niu Xiuxiu was naturally very fond of this famous protector of the Tang Dynasty, and she had already heard countless legends about him.
If she were to see Su Chen alive up close with her own eyes, it would be impossible for her not to be nervous.
"Don't worry, Teacher is easy to get along with. Just relax when the time comes."
Li Chengqian held her hand and comforted her softly.
Feeling the warmth in the palm of her hand, Niu Xiuxiu also gained some confidence.
Niu Xiuxiu's unique appearance and figure have always been a hurdle in her heart.
Although she had long been accustomed to the world's opinions, she still wanted to leave a good impression on Su Chen, the protector of the country and the prince's teacher.
Seeing that Niu Xiuxiu still seemed a little nervous, Li Chengqian continued: "The teacher and I have known each other for more than a year. He is a person with a good temper. He is always kind and polite to others and speaks softly."
"Just like sometimes when I don't meet the standards in my homework, the teacher will only scold me a few times and won't say much, so you just need to relax."
"Oh, by the way, teacher, he has a taboo, that is, he cannot mention foreign races, otherwise he will find a way to destroy them!"
Niu Xiuxiu remembered every word Li Chengqian said to her, and already had a rough image of Su Chen in her mind.
Not long after, Li Chengqian brought Niu Xiuxiu to Su Chen's new residence.
Compared with the previous house, Su Chen's new house is very high-profile!
