248. Second place in the ranking
248. Is it second place? I got the exam if I was not careful
"This is an unwritten iron rule of the Dayu Dynasty." Chu Wan explained to Qi Mingluan in a low voice, "If the princess and princesses and other royal women get married, if they want to keep their royal status, they can move into the newly built Prince Consort's Mansion or Junma Mansion after getting married, but they only rely on the monthly routines in the palace to live their lives. Although it is rich, they will be idle for a lifetime."
"If a man wants to do something for himself, such as becoming an official in the court, he cannot be regarded as a prince-in-law and a county horse. In other words, the princess who was originally pampered and had to be like the daughter-in-law of an ordinary family, no longer have the status of a royal family, and be filial to her parents-in-law every day, serve her sister-in-law, and manage all kinds of affairs in the palace."
Chu Wan was not sure if Xiao Mingluan could understand what she said. Maybe she understood. Seeing Xiao Mingluan's unhappy expression on her face, was she afraid that Master Qi would live with the girl's family like a son-in-law in the future, or did she think that if Hai Yan abandoned her status as a princess, the Qi family would not have much benefit from this marriage?
"Brother and the princess sister are in love. It turns out that it has been because of this, and it has been up to now." Qi Mingluan sighed long. When she was delivering medicine that day, Hai Yan was hysterical and heard that it was the accomplishment of the Emperor Shang Qi family, Qi Shaocheng, resolutely wanted to cut off this relationship. Could it be because of this rule? Is it because of her understanding that the eldest brother has the ambition to serve the court and is unwilling to let him give up? Or is it she herself unwilling to give up her status as a noble princess?
But after thinking about it carefully, I feel it doesn't make sense. Who doesn't know that the Qi family of the Emperor Shang Dynasty is rich, and whether they are the princesses or the eldest grandson and daughter-in-law, can inherit no more property than being a princess? The grandmother and mother are both people with good tempers, and there is also an invisible rich sister-in-law. What a good condition!
There should be other reasons. Qi Mingluan was confident that she had never thought about the reason for a long time. Now that I think about it, there may be some things she didn't know yet.
Donghou Haipei is not like a person who is ambitious about the throne, but since Hai Yan and his elder brother have settled, it is better to thoroughly find out.
"Oh, I didn't expect that this level would make things difficult for the two children." Mrs. Qi sighed alone. Sun Lian'er's words seemed to be considering the Qi family and Donghou, but she also threw out this practical problem. Everyone in the palace was looking at Hai Yan and Qi Shaocheng who had not left their seats. Unlike the previous two marriages, neither of them seemed to have the intention of leaving their seats to express their gratitude. They had a very tacit understanding.
"Mom, who is the princess of the Donghou family?" Rong Jin asked the eldest princess Yu Yixin in a low voice, looking like she was lowering her voice, but the questioning sound was just right along. The innocent and innocent face was, and the heart in her heart had turned several turns. Isn't Qi Shaocheng, who was ranked second, the eldest brother of Qi Mingluan? I didn't expect that he would meet Donghou's daughter. Who wouldn't know that Donghou would be willing to give his daughter a dowry.
Humph, are the girls of this era so precocious? Qi Mingluan glanced at me. She was so jealous in her teens. What she said was that she was Princess Haiyan. Isn’t it like reminding the emperor and the queen that the two married people who were merciless and did not come out to thank her?
If you want to be envious, jealous or hatred, who can compare with Haiyan, all the bad peach blossoms here who have thought about their elder brother.
Yu Yixin seemed to have no idea how to answer her daughter's inquiry. She just looked at Empress Sun with her eyes. Hai Yan in her seat rose and moved her graceful body to the hall, like a green lotus blooming quietly in the pond, quiet and simple, yet holy and inviolable.
"Hai Yan is willing to give up the status of a princess and marry into the Qi family as a daughter-in-law, and hope the emperor will fulfill his wish." The face covering most of his face, with a beautiful and low voice drooping sweetly, but the words said were enough to surprise people.
First, Donghou Haipei, the boss with his mouth open, his hands holding the wine glass were trembling, and tears were spinning in his eyes as if they would flow down at any time.
But it is understandable that the pearl in the palm that has been pampered in my hand since I was a child, but now I give up on my identity as a princess for the sake of my sweetheart. Give up this identity means that I have drawn a clear line with his father, who is Donghou. This is simply cutting his heart with a knife.
"The third brother, Hai Yan's girl is very concerned about Qi Shaocheng, and the girl is too young to stay." Tuyuhun, who was so dying, was fanning the flames. Look at your Hai Yan, who is usually arrogant and like a fairy. Now, not to mention how she met Qi Shaocheng, just look at her positive appearance than a man in order to get married, as if she was begging for marriage, and where was her reserved and reserved.
"Third brother, don't worry, that Qi Shaocheng is a reliable person." Five golden flowers followed and laughed secretly, and Mu Tong's eyes swept over immediately. As soon as Mu Tong finished speaking, Qi Shaocheng had already arrived in the hall and saluted Hai Yan.
"Shaocheng thanked the emperor for his grace. When he asked the former emperor Longen to confer the Qi family as the imperial merchant, Shaocheng had the opportunity to participate in the imperial examination. Although he was not careful, Shaocheng had no intention of entering the court to become an official. Speaking of which, he was a eldest young master who had no worries about food and clothing in the Qi family, there was no difference between life in the unemployed county Ma Master. Today, Emperor Demeng's kindness and his beloved daughter were already the greatest wish in his life. Shaocheng thanked the emperor for his grace!"
It was probably the first time Qi Shaocheng said such a long passage, but it was the kind of feeling that revealed between the lines. The women present, especially the teenage girls, blushed unconsciously as they heard this.
The beloved woman said so hard that she didn't say it like a second-hand man who reads poetry and books.
"Boy, it must be like this kind of sweet words that deceived my Yan'er away!" Hai Pei secretly filled his two glasses of wine with him, and Tuyuhun drank with him. From time to time, he said that his daughter was always the one who married his own mother and sent her to marry. Why did you, the father-in-law, cry first?
Hai Pei glared at me and replied bluntly, "You girl have so many movies, of course I don't think it's okay to get married." I am just this daughter, a daughter who is more precious than the pearls in the sea. It would be strange if I could bear it."
Mu Tong did not participate in this debate. He only had three sons, so it was really hard to understand the feeling of marrying his daughter.
"Grandma, look, the elder brother and sister-in-law will definitely be harmonious in the future. I wonder how many others will envy." Qi Mingluan was so happy that the scholarly elder brother would say such stingy words. He didn't know if Hai Yan would have a shy red face after taking off the veil.
I was not careful and got the second place in the exam. Brother, do you know how funny the expression of the top scorer, the cousin of the top scorer, the cousin of Tanhua and the uncle of the Jinshi were when you said that.
"Yes, no matter how you say your elder brother is, they are the eldest grandson of the Qi family. Originally, my father and I wanted him to take over the Qi family's shop, but your elder brother said that he was obsessed with poetry and books and even went to take the exam for fame and fortune, so your father could only cultivate your fourth brother." Mrs. Qi smiled again. People can get fame and fortune in their lives. Only the word "feeling" is loyal to their hearts. How difficult is it to find someone they like, even if they have been moved, they cannot be together in the end.
"This... this makes me embarrassed. One is willing to be a white dick and the other is willing to be a commoner. It seems that the love you met is deeply rooted in your hearts. This deep affection also reminds me of when I met the queen. Does the queen still remember that back then?"
As he was talking, Yu Yujue looked at Empress Sun with affectionate expression. Empress Sun was stunned, and then looked at each other and smiled and lowered her head.
"It's been a few decades ago, and my children have all got married. What else did the emperor mention? There are so many customers here..." Empress Sun, who is over 50 years old but has been well maintained, can only use the tenderness that is rare to show in front of others to hide the panic in her heart. The emperor still remembers this love, but she is not sure whether it is a good or a bad thing.
For more than 40 years, Sun Lian'er reminds herself all the time that she has achieved a noble status because of the love between her sister Sun Rong'er and Yu Yujue. But how much she hopes that Yu Yujue will forget the beauty of the apricot blossom rain, because she was with Yu Yujue for decades, Sun Lian'er is not Sun Rong'er.
"Did you miss something? Is the emperor's sister-in-law going to tell us the story that the former emperor talked about?" Outside the hall was Duan Wangyu Yu'ang, who was late, and Ning Wangyu Yuyun and Ning Wang's prince Yuyiyun were also coming in at the same time.
"My brother, please pay tribute to the emperor and sister-in-law." After making up a gift, Yu Yu'ang looked at the man and woman who were celebrating in the hall, "Isn't this the eldest nephew? Which one is singing? Is this... Princess Haiyan from the Donghou family? Although she wears a veil, she is still a beauty reincarnated by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Girl."
"You, it's fine if you come out to do something late and come back late, but you're still joking about what the younger generation is doing." Yu Yujue asked the palace maids and eunuchs to prepare a table, and asked Yu Yu'ang and Yu Yujun to take their seats first.
However, the words of Duan's big nephew were like a blow to the guests in the hall. They had forgotten that Princess Duan and the mother of the Qi family, Concubine Qi, are the relatives of their relatives. They just married into the royal family and the other married into the merchant family. The status differences between the two families rarely walked around, so they gradually forgot this level.
In fact, in this way, the second-hand Qi Shaocheng and the princess of the Donghou family, Hai Yan, can also be considered a match.
"The emperor is about to give him a marriage, and this pair of beauties is very good no matter how you look at it." The queen said with a smile, as if she was happy from the heart of this happy event.
"Yes, yes, Shaocheng, Yan'er, you two should get up first, and the marriage will be handled according to the procedures. As for whether to be the second place or not, or whether to be the princess, I will talk about it first. I must drink this glass of wedding wine."
Yu Yujue asked Xiao Zhengzi to come forward and invited Qi Shaocheng and Hai Yan to get up, which was considered as a matter of giving the marriage. He said something about the rules and then said that the wedding would be organized first, but he was vague about how to handle the wedding. According to the etiquette of the princess and the horses, or the etiquette of the royal family marrying a daughter-in-law. This would not make the few people in the Ministry of Rites suffer.
