Ming Ruo found out that Princess Ningping should be her big client, and she admired Jian Mingxuan, Yunzhuang House, and Weiweiju.
"Okay, but it will take some time. I have some things to do these two days." Eating and shopping is important, but the third prince's medical fee must be recovered first.
"Okay." Princess Ningping nodded repeatedly.
"You play outside all day long, doesn't your mother and concubine talk about you?" Logically speaking, the daughter who has not left the court should be strictly controlled at home. Although Donghuan's people are civilized, a noble girl will not leave the house without leaving the door.
, but it is impossible to go out to play in the dark.
"As long as I bring my maids and guards, my mother-in-law will not care." Princess Ningping said with a smile, "My mother-in-law said that before I get married, I can do whatever I want. In the future, if I marry someone else,
You have to be careful in your words and deeds to be a qualified wife. The girl's family only has a few years of free and happy life, and she doesn't want to hold me back."
"You have a good mother and concubine." Mingruo didn't expect that under this strict etiquette, Princess Duanze would love her daughter in another way. She was really a wonderful person.
"Yeah, my concubine loves me the most." Princess Ningping smiled happily.
At dusk, the carriage entered the imperial capital, passed through the bustling streets, and stopped in front of Prince Yun's palace.
Zisu and Zicao got off the carriage at the back and wanted to help the princess get out of the car.
Si Haochen had already arrived at the carriage and stretched out his long, slender hand. Mingruo put his small hand on it and stepped out of the carriage.
Princess Ningping stuck her head out: "Sister-in-law of Nine Emperors, the night market is opening in the West Market tomorrow, do you want to go and play together?"
Feeling that her hand was being held a little tighter, Mingruo smiled and shook his head: "I'm not going, you go and play."
"Oh." Princess Ningping retracted her head in disappointment.
Mingruo waved to her and was led into the palace by Si Haochen.
The flowers and plants in the palace are well taken care of. No matter what season, the flowers are in bloom and the grass is lush. Walking there, you feel like walking in a park.
Mingruo acted like a child, waving their intertwined hands as they walked: "Why don't you let me agree to go to the night market with Ning Ping?"
"What's the point of going with her..." Si Haochen looked disgusted.
"Yes, yes, it would be more interesting to go on a date with my sweetheart." Mingruo was also convinced by Si Haochen, and his jealousy plate would be full from time to time.
Seeing that the prince and princess were back, Aunt Dong quickly went to the small kitchen to prepare dinner, and Zicao followed her to help.
Zisu went to the Tangchi Palace to prepare bathing items and a change of clothes for the princess.
Seeing Bai Shen waiting outside the study door, Si Haochen had no choice but to let go of Mingruo's hand: "I'll take care of some things first, and I'll have dinner with you later."
"Okay." Mingruo nodded, and one of them entered the study room, and the other went to Tangchi Hall.
Si Haochen had to go to court the next day. After dinner, the two of them went to bed early.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Si Haochen stood up quietly and put on his court clothes.
Mingruo rubbed his eyes: "Do you want to go to work?"
"Yes." Si Haochen walked to the bed and tucked her under the quilt, "It's still early, so you can continue to sleep."
"I made cookies and put them on the table outside. You can take them with you." My boyfriend is so anti-human during working hours.
"Okay." Si Haochen placed a gentle kiss on the little princess's forehead, then turned and left the inner hall.
After washing up outside, Si Haochen saw a bulging little cloth bag on the table. He opened the drawstring and thought he would see the bear-shaped snacks from before. But he found that it was not like that. There were pieces inside.
The flower-shaped pastry has a hollow heart in the middle, which is actually translucent - this pastry is so delicately made. (Mingruo: This time it's not a bear cookie, but a more girly glass heart cookie.)
Si Haochen took a piece and put it in his mouth. The texture and taste were different from the last time's Xiongzi snacks, which were harder and crispier. Si Haochen tied the drawstring, put the cloth bag into his sleeve pocket, and entered the palace. towards.
Today's morning meeting was quite lively. First, they discussed matters related to the palace examination, and then the envoys from the Beichi Kingdom came to visit. The Beichi Kingdom sent many gems and holy medicines to 'redeemed' their Snow Maiden.
Emperor Danxu was surprised by such a generous 'apology' and couldn't help but wonder - is it really worth exchanging such good things for the Snow Girl?
Si Haochen was not surprised at all. These things were a bit expensive to use to redeem the Snow Girl. But it was worth it to confuse Dong Huan, and when the time was right, he could directly send his troops south and catch Dong Huan off guard.
Emperor Danxu happily accepted the gift, left the envoy to have lunch in the palace, and asked his chamberlain to invite the envoy to rest.
After dealing with the matter in Beichi, Emperor Danxu announced the marriage decree for the third prince and Princess Mingyu, and specified that the wedding would be fifteen days later. There was also a decree to confer the title of Prince Ping on the third prince Si Yu, and the residence was renamed Prince Ping's Mansion. The decree will be sent to the Third Prince's Mansion later.
The corner of Si Haochen's mouth twitched. His imperial brother was getting better and better at doing things. If his little princess didn't treat the third prince's leg injury, in fifteen days, the third prince would not even be able to get out of bed, let alone riding a horse to accept the bride. .How is this going to be a big wedding? Are we going to use door panels to carry out the ceremony? (Dye Yi: His Royal Highness Prince Yun, only the dead are carried on door panels...Did you secretly eat Hedinghong, and your mouth is so poisonous...)
The officials in the palace couldn't figure out what the emperor meant. The third prince was injured like that. Isn't the most important thing at the moment not to find famous doctors to treat the third prince's legs? Why are you in such a hurry to get married?
There were also some officials with big imaginations who immediately thought of the princess that Nanrong sent for marriage. Wasn't Princess Qinghuang also hastily given a marriage to Prince Yun, and then sent to the underground palace for burial? Could it be that... the third prince also Is it going to be bad?
If this is the case, then the emperor is too unreasonable - he caught Nan Rong's princess alone! If Nan Rong is offended, will it directly cut off the contact with Dong Huan, and they will not be able to eat Nan Rong in the future? Rong’s snowflake salt can only be eaten with bitter coarse salt...
Emperor Danxu's purpose is actually very clear. Now that the third prince has fallen, the prince is the only one in the family. Only by marrying Princess Mingyu to the third prince can the situation be slightly balanced. He also thought of other candidates, but there is really no one else - -The eldest prince already has a concubine, the fourth prince has a close relationship with the prince, and the fifth prince... He asked the female official to ask Princess Mingyu, and Princess Mingyu said that she had never met the fifth prince, so she was unwilling to marry him.
Of course, the purpose of today's decree is not this. The iron ore he promised to Nanrong as betrothal gift was only agreed privately with Emperor Wen of Nanrong. Iron ore is an important strategic resource, and this must be stated openly. , there must be many ministers who are opposed to it, and maybe there will be old men who are not afraid of death who will try to remonstrate with death, which gives me a headache just thinking about it.
"Ahem." Emperor Danxu coughed twice, "I decided to give the iron mine at the junction of Liangzhou and Nanrong Linshui County to Nanrong as a betrothal gift."
