"Go to the small study first and wait. Brother, I'll be here soon." Si Haochen said solemnly.
"Oh."
When Ming Ruo returned to the palace, Zi Su and Ji Yue brought two pairs of heads and faces and two pieces of glazed gauze to Ming Ruo for inspection.
"Empress, this is the jewelry prepared for Miss Yu Ning to add makeup. According to what you said, I have re-selected the style. Do you think it will work?"
"These two pairs are good." Mingruo nodded, "Let's put them together with the clothes."
"yes."
"What time will Ruo'er go out tomorrow?" His Majesty Yunhuang planned that he would go to court early and his wife would go out later, so we should be able to catch up.
"Chenshi, let's go to the Si's Mansion to put on Yu Ning's makeup first, and then go to the General's Mansion to watch the ceremony. I don't expect to come back until tonight." Tomorrow is not a day for rest, and Mingruo has no intention of inviting His Majesty Yunhuang to join him.
"My husband will accompany you."
"Organizing a wedding is already complicated, so don't make it more complicated..." Planning a wedding is already complicated, and adding 'welcome the Holy Spirit' to it would be too embarrassing for our ancestors.
"Ruo'er, don't you want to see what the Zhao family is up to?" Si Haochen raised an eyebrow at Mingruo.
"Then let's congratulate him in a low-key manner, and then..." Mingruo made a 'slip away' gesture.
"Okay." His Majesty Yun Huang went to the study to handle official business with satisfaction.
Mingruo looked at the congratulatory gifts that Aunt Dong had prepared for the two families. They were all very appropriate: "Take them and take them with you tomorrow."
"These can be sent together with the emperor's reward." Aunt Dong reminded with a smile.
Mingruo blinked and understood what Aunt Dong meant, showing how much she values her maternal grandfather's family: "Okay, then let Eunuch Ke make arrangements."
"Yes." Aunt Dong took the gift herself and handed it to Eunuch Ke.
"Queen, would you like to wear this robe tomorrow?" Zi Su brought a set of palace attire with heavy purple embroidery and gold phoenix.
"This won't work, let's find something simple and easy to move around." Tomorrow I'm going to sneak out to watch the fun, so I have to dress low-key.
"This..." Zisu chose a waist-length glazed gauze skirt. Although the style of the skirt is simple, the material is very expensive. "This is the simplest style. It won't work any more simple..."
"Okay, okay, this is the one." Mingruo was quite satisfied with the narrow-sleeved dress.
Early the next morning, Mingruo dressed up properly and took Aqiu and Aunt Dong to go out.
His Majesty Yun Huang was going to court. The two of them walked side by side on the verandah and passed through the hanging flower gate.
Si Haochen glanced at the carriage waiting in front of the Chuihua Gate: "You wait at the Si Mansion, I will pick you up after the court is over."
"Yeah." Mingruo nodded and got on the carriage with cheerful steps. She waved to her husband, turned around and said to Shi Shi, "Let's go."
Poor His Majesty Yun Huang was like a "stone looking at his wife", watching the carriage gradually go away.
Eunuch Ke glanced at the sundial on the high platform and whispered: "Your Majesty, it's getting late. It's time to go to court..."
"You little heartless one." His Majesty Yun Huang snorted coldly and walked forward.
The Queen's carriage had already gone far away, and Eunuch Ke was confused by His Majesty Yun Huang's foolish words - the Emperor was displeased because of his urging, so he should be scolded as 'old heartless'.
, what does this resentful and resentful phrase "little heartless one" mean?
After much thought, he still couldn't figure it out. Finally, Eunuch Ke felt that he had misheard, and planned to go to Dr. Xu after the court to get some ear medicine.
Since it was relatively early, there were almost no pedestrians on the street. The carriage soon stopped in front of a mansion. The door of the mansion was open, and the yard could be seen decorated with lights.
After the restoration of the Yunmeng Empire, the former Prince Duanze was no longer a prince. Prince Duanze took a sinecure position in the Ministry of Rites, and his main job was to criticize ministers who relied on their old ways and made the emperor unhappy. Prince Hong was on duty at the Hanlin Academy, giving
His Majesty Yun Huang serves as senior secretary.
Therefore, although this mansion looks magnificent, the plaque is very simple and only mentions the word "Sifu".
Before Ming Ruo got off the carriage, Mrs. Si came with her family members to welcome Luan Chai into the house. Ming Ruo signaled Aunt Dong to come forward and help Mrs. Si who was saluting.
"The Empress, please sit down in the main hall for a while. I will send someone for Yu Ning to come and say hello." Mrs. Si personally served tea.
The ladies who were chatting in the main hall before have been invited to go elsewhere, leaving only a few ladies of good character to accompany them.
"Ma'am, there's no need to be polite. I'm going to the backyard to see my fourth cousin." Ming Ruo doesn't want to be here, listening to those ladies talk about chatting.
Hearing the title Queen Empress, she had the idea of staying with Mingruo. The familiar lady had to stop her thoughts - Queen Empress obviously doesn't care about monarchs and ministers, but only relatives. It would be too shameful to follow her like this.
My eyesight is sharpened.
"My wife, I will lead the way for you." Mrs. Si led Mingruo to the courtyard where her daughter lived.
Ning Ping put on makeup, and Aunt Xi was picking up her hair to comb it. When Ning Ping saw Mingruo, her eyes lit up. She wanted to rush forward and give her a bear hug, but she forgot that her hair was still in Aunt Xi's hand.
…
"Ouch... are you trying to make me bald?" Ning Ping rubbed his scalp, thinking about his mother's previous instructions: Sister-in-law of the Nine Emperors is now the empress, so she must not lose her etiquette.
Ning Ping brushed his long hair behind his back and saluted respectfully: "My lord, please see the Queen, the Queen is Jin An."
"Yeah." Mingruo nodded slightly and sat down on the chair in the middle, "You should just kneel down."
"Ah?" Ning Ping was stunned. Shouldn't the Nine Emperors Sister-in-law say - get down without any ceremony? Why did she still let her kneel down properly...
A young eunuch stepped forward and sang loudly: "The imperial edict has arrived, take the edict..."
Everyone in the room knelt on the floor, and the young father-in-law read out the imperial edict consecrating Si Yuning, the eldest daughter of the Si family, as the head of Ningping County.
Ning Ping also knew that with the current official positions of her father and brother, it would be difficult for her to become a township lord, let alone a county lord. She was definitely taking advantage of her brother You. When getting engaged, she married by herself;
After climbing high, things really are unpredictable.
Mrs. Si wiped the wet corners of her eyes and thanked the Queen again.
"Madam, no courtesy." Mingruo nodded to Aqiu.
Ah Qiu directly picked up Mrs. Si: "Today is the day when the county chief gets married, so it's not easy to cry."
Aunt Dong also reminded: "It's better to comb your hair quickly. The sedan chair will arrive soon and the bride hasn't dressed up yet, so it will be lively."
"Yes, yes." Mrs. Si quickly greeted Aunt Xi and Zhuang Niang to continue.
After the hair was tied up, Aunt Xi handed a gold hairpin to Mrs. Si: "Madam, you are so precious, please put this hairpin on your lady's head and bring you some good luck."
"When it comes to blessings, I would definitely ask the Queen to do it." In Ning Ping's view, the Nine Emperors' sister-in-law who can manage the Nine Emperors brothers obediently has absolutely "boundless power".
