Chapter 804: Wait another three years(1/2)
"Hui'er, the old lady of the Zhao family passed away last night. The Zhao family wants to maintain three years of filial piety. Do you have to wait for three years?"
Lin Yingxue sighed. She had known this, she would not have set such a wedding date. In this way, Murong Hui would have to wait until she was nineteen years old before she could get married.
"Auntie, Hui'er is willing to wait."
Murong Hui nodded without even thinking about it, and then headed towards Lin Yingxue Road.
"Are you really happy to wait for three years?"
Lin Yingxue sighed helplessly and said helplessly.
"Hui'er has always hoped to get the same relationship as you and your uncle-in-law. Even if this fate is a little later, Hui'er is willing to wait."
Murong Hui nodded firmly and said with courage.
"If you persist, then I will no longer persuade you. Zhao Yu is worth it."
Lin Yingxue let go of Murong Hui's hand, and the gentleness in her expression became a little more.
She even felt that compared to Ying'er, Murong Hui was more like her daughter.
"Auntie, Hui'er wants to meet Zhao Yu. He has a very good relationship with Mrs. Zhao, and must be very sad now."
Murong Hui stayed in Fengyi Palace for a while before getting up and saying goodbye.
After she left, Lin Yingxue couldn't help laughing.
"Princess Linghui's marriage has been delayed now. I'm afraid that there will be no second one in the entire Rong Kingdom. Why is Your Highness happy if you get married as late as Princess Linghui?"
The nanny beside him asked in confusion.
"You don't have to worry about having a good meal late, Hui'er will definitely enjoy her happiness in the future."
Lin Yingxue shook her head, believing that Murong Hui’s current idea was right.
Murong Hui hurried out of the palace and went straight to the Zhao family.
When she arrived at the door of Zhao's house, she hurriedly changed into a moon-white dress and asked someone to call Zhao Yu out.
Xiao Zhouzi hurried into Zhao Yu's house, and soon he saw Zhao Yu walking out in mourning clothes.
"Your Highness, are you?"
Zhao Yu walked to the carriage and asked softly.
"Isn't it still possible for me? Are you okay?"
Murong Hui jumped out of the carriage, walked to Zhao Yu and said worriedly.
Zhao Yu's eyes were a little red and swollen. It was obvious that he had just cried, but when he saw Murong Hui coming, he barely smiled.
"I am fine. I have to worry about you. But I have to keep mourning for three years, which is really delaying Your Highness. It is better..."
Zhao Yu looked up at Murong Hui, with a little reluctance in his expression, but he still said with an appraisal: "It's better for Your Highness to find another good person."
"I always think you are my beloved. I will wait no matter how long it takes, as long as you live up to me."
Murong Hui handed some tonic to Zhao Yu and said with a confident look on his face.
Zhao Yu took the thing and was silent for a moment, as if he was calming down his emotions.
"Don't worry, your highness, I will never let you down in this life."
Zhao Yu raised his head and said to Murong Hui even more.
"With your promise, let alone wait for three years, even thirteen years, I will wait. Remember to eat more supplements to avoid getting tired of your body. Although you can't be an official in these three years, don't waste your time. Just take advantage of these three years to hide your strength and maintain a low profile."
Murong Hui nodded and smiled and reminded her. Before she saw Zhao Yu, she was still a little nervous, but now she felt much calmer.
Zhao Yu nodded, and couldn't help but feel a little moved. Now the eldest prince is about to get married, and the second prince will get married in one or two years.
After the two princes get married, they will definitely participate in the government affairs. However, their Zhao family really missed the opportunity and lost their momentum.
This funeral made him clearly feel the coldness of the world, so he even felt that Murong Hui would leave him because of this.
However, Murong Hui did not think about leaving him, and even advised him to cheer up. This moved him, and he also had a little more strength.
"I will definitely live up to your highness's expectations."
Zhao Yu respectfully held Murong Hui's hand and said softly.
Ahem...
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard several coughs coming from behind him.
Murong Hui looked up in confusion and didn't see anyone.
"Your Highness, it's time for me to go back."
Zhao Yu sighed. He could hear that his father was deliberately coughing to remind him just now, so he had to say goodbye to Murong Hui first.
"Since you are here, you will naturally have to pay some condolences. Take me to the mourning hall."
Murong Hui shook her head, and she naturally wanted to stay with Zhao Yu for a while, even though the two of them were not alone.
"Then your Highness, please follow me."
Zhao Yu nodded, let go of Murong Hui's hand, and led him into the main entrance of the Zhao family.
After Murong Hui raised three incense sticks on Mrs. Zhao, she stepped aside and was called by Mrs. Zhao.
Mrs. Zhao looked tired, obviously because it took a lot of energy to organize the funeral.
"Your Highness is really happy that your wife can come. But the family will be mourned in the future. I also ask Your Highness to walk around the Zhao family. This is not good for you and Zhao Yu."
Murong Hui laughed silently. She had heard that Zhao Yu's mother was a very dignified lady and had never had much contact with her before.
Now I have learned it, but although her words are not nice, it is true that they are not married yet.
"Mrs. Zhao said very well, then I'll go back now. If you have anything to help, just go to my mansion and say it. If I can help, I will do my best."
Murong Hui knew that this was her future mother-in-law, but she was a little more pedantic, so she simply didn't keep her words in her heart and stood up and said goodbye.
"Mom, why do you speak like this?"
After the person left, Zhao Yu couldn't help complaining.
This is the first time Murong Hui has entered the Zhao family's gate. Her mother is so disrespectful to Murong Hui.
"Your mother doesn't want the Zhao family to be involved in the royal struggle under such circumstances. Everyone knows that Princess Linghui and the second prince are getting closer."
Grand Secretary Zhao walked in and sighed helplessly.
Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel silent. She didn't say anything anymore. She felt that she was thinking too little, and she thought Mrs. Zhao didn't like Murong Hui.
"Go back and rest early, you have to watch at night."
Grand Secretary Zhao patted Zhao Yu on the shoulder and urged him.
"Your Highness, don't take it to your heart. Mrs. Zhao is famously pedantic. She is not talking to Zhao Can now. Even her biological daughter is like this, let alone others?"
Seeing that Murong Hui didn't say anything all the way, Madam Huang thought Murong Hui was in a bad mood, so she hurriedly comforted her.
"I wasn't angry, I was just thinking that in a short time, Murong An would be going to get married. What should I give?"
Murong Hui shook her head and said with a smile.
"The eldest prince likes luxury, and it's good for His Highness to give some gold and jade items."
Unexpectedly, Madam Huang said that she had always had a bad impression of the eldest prince.
"Ordinary gold and jade things will definitely not be able to catch his eye. I am already in a bad mood with him. If I give them too perfunctorily, I will inevitably be criticized by him. It is better to be more careful."
Murong Hui sighed, looking quite helpless.
"It's better to ask Mrs. Chu for help. Mrs. Chu has many treasures in her family. She can't find one or two things that can be seen in the eyes of the eldest prince."
Madam Huang thought for a moment, then smiled and said, she thought it was a trivial matter.
Although Murong Hui is a princess, she has no power, so the best things she can find are definitely limited.
When compared with the ministers in the court, you will naturally be able to compare the above and below.
Therefore, Madam Huang felt that there was no need for Murong Hui to worry about this matter at all, and she would not be satisfied with Murong An.
"Well, after you go back, ask Yue'er if there is any new stuff. No matter how much money you pay, I'm happy to buy it."
Murong Hui nodded and said with a smile.
Her original wedding date was particularly close to Murong An's wedding date. It seemed that Lin Yingxue was afraid that Murong An would cause trouble because she opposed the marriage, so she did it in a hurry.
Fortunately, many of them were prepared early in the year, and with the things originally prepared for Murong Hui, the arrangement looks quite grand.
Murong An looked at him quite satisfied, so the unhappiness in his heart also subsided a lot.
His aides around him often persuade him not to act too hasty.
Since the emperor and the empress do not want him to contact military power now, he might as well give up military power first and win over civil servants first.
Taking advantage of his advantage of being two years older than Murong Ning, he could at least win over some of his own forces before Murong Ning entered the court.
Hearing this idea, Murong An figured it out and treated this wife better first, and after winning over Tan Yanran's parents' home, he would then take a few of them.
"Have you gone to deliver something to Xueer today?"
