Chapter 121: Getting Married (Purple Star Qiyue/Ice King S(1/2)
The next day, Xie Ze did not go to the morning court. Before the morning court ended, he was waiting in Yanfu Palace to discuss matters.
The emperor dispersed the morning court, and the prince, Li Mingshui, Wang Xiang and others who rushed back overnight, faced the sand table and investigated the details of the information brought back by Xie Ze until noon.
Everyone retreated, and Xie Ze followed the prince into Jinghua Palace.
After lunch, the prince took a few sips of tea and smiled slanted with Xie Ze, "There is a good thing. I will start preparing it for you since you want to discuss kissing. A few days ago, the Hanlin Academy's attendants agreed that I took a look and it was really good."
The prince said, signaling to the eunuch, "Get that box."
The eunuch came over with a small box in both hands. The prince signaled him to hand it to Xie Ze, "Look."
Xie Ze opened the box, took out a square and thick picture album, opened it, looked at the vivid pictures of spring mountains and waters inside, closed it with a snap, glanced at the prince, threw it into the box, and closed the box.
"You keep it, I don't need it."
"No need? Why? Have you practiced this trip?" the prince narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Xie Ze glanced at the prince and ignored him.
"It's not one or two who make jokes on wedding night. Don't blame me for not reminding you, I'm going to make jokes..."
The prince pulled the corners of his mouth down and kept twitching.
"That's...tsk! I'm thinking about you."
"Don't worry." Xie Ze lowered his head to drink tea.
"Do you really understand?" The prince bowed forward and looked at Xie Ze carefully.
Xie Ze was seen by him and leaned back and frowned.
"Since you said you understand, then I'll ask you, do you know what the fish plays with lotus leaves?"
The prince sat back and asked with a smile.
Xie Ze raised his eyebrows and looked at the prince without saying anything.
"That fish plays on the lotus leaf east, and the fish plays on the lotus leaf west..."
The prince slowly thought, and his fingers were slashing around.
"In that box, I asked those attendants to carefully draw more than a dozen pictures of fish play lotus leaves. They are vivid and unique. They are specially drawn for you. This is the only one, in the future..."
"It's all boring literati things."
Xie Ze already understood what the fish plays with lotus leaves, and thought of the prince’s special mention of the fish plays with lotus leaves. Why did it rise and point to what, and said with a tight face.
"Born literati!"
The prince laughed dryly.
“That’s right, okay, I’m bored.
By the way, does that girl know about the fish playing lotus leaves of the boring literati? Speaking of which, there must be a few fish playing lotus leaves in her dowry, right? They are all...
OK, I'm talking too much."
Facing Xie Ze's gaze over, the prince immediately changed the subject.
"Let's talk about the serious business. The box just now is also the serious business, so let's talk about the second one.
Your girl is having a good relationship with Tao Nong. When you are welcoming, can you invite Tao Nong to sing a wedding song or something?"
"Well, she told me yesterday that Tao Nong wanted to sing a wedding song, and I agreed."
Xie Ze's expression calmed down.
"This Tao Nong is about the beginning."
The prince laughed.
"As Dad said, this is a real bachelor. He lives until now, all depends on his preferences. Even if he is shameless, he is shameless and open-minded, and can be considered a strange flower."
“The third thing,”
The prince stopped and looked at Xie Ze.
"I think it is not appropriate, at least not comprehensive, for the sake of this ceremony, Mr. Wang's meaning is that your grandfather will send the ceremony on behalf of his son.
Those old stories about you and Shangshu Xie.
Alas, it is very unfilial for a son to abandon his father, but it is nothing. There are so many things in history books that do not affect them as a gentleman at all.
But if you even put aside your father and ignore the gift of marrying a wife, you will probably be used by those boring villains to attack you in the future.
My father meant to send Xie Shangshu out as an imperial envoy. In this way, it would be natural for your grandfather to send a ceremony on behalf of his son. However, Mrs. Shao could not send it out.
My mom means that you are her and her father’s adopted son, so let the father, perform the ceremony on behalf of the ritual.
The difficulty of my father performing this etiquette on behalf of him is unprecedented, whether it is based on family rituals or state rituals, and how about family rituals, it is very troublesome, I am afraid that the Ministry of Rites will be in chaos."
"What do you mean?"
Xie Ze was silent for a moment and asked as he looked at the prince.
"As Ah Niang said, I wanted you to change your surname Ning at the beginning."
It seemed that the prince was waiting for Xie Ze's words and immediately replied happily.
"The Ministry of Rites..."
“It doesn’t hurt to give them a headache, not.
I am most annoying that they will drop their bags of books with me all day long, what about the previous dynasty, what about the previous dynasty, what about the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors? Do we have to have a precedent?”
Xie Ze looked at the prince, raised his eyebrows slightly, and showed a smile.
Now he is the same as when he was a child, and when he makes trouble for others, he looks righteous and righteous.
"There is a fourth thing, what should I do if I recognize my relatives?"
The prince continued.
Xie Ze looked at the prince and waited for him to continue.
"Mr. Wang means that you marry a wife in the Royal Palace of Rong'an, Xie Shangshu and his wife are in the Shangshu Mansion, and the old man of the Xie family is divided into three places in the village outside the city. This is easy to fool the relatives.
It is better to recognize and recognize the ancestors when worshiping one, and the two rituals are combined with one ritual.
What do you think?"
Xie Ze nodded.
"Then there is no such ceremony for recognizing relatives. Since you are sent to marry a father's ceremony, you should go to the palace to recognize relatives. What do you think?"
The prince looked at Xie Ze and asked happily.
"The family has no ritual of recognizing their relatives, or who have married thousands of miles apart, right? Let's forget it."
Xie Ze frowned.
"It's better to recognize her. Just take her into the palace for a walk, anyway, it's not far away."
Xie Ze frowned and said for a moment.
"Okay, big things are agreed upon, and there are still some small things. Let Mr. Wang tell you about it at that time."
The prince looked happy.

In the evening, Li Ran took a few rolls of drawings and entered the private room at the back garden of Qingfeng Tower.
Li Ran sat down and slowly sipped a cup of tea. The footsteps outside were approaching from a distance, and Li Ran hurriedly greeted him.
Xie Ze walked very quickly, and Li Ran rushed out a few steps before meeting Li Ran.
"Have you arrived long ago?"
Xie Ze pushed Li Ran with a finger and turned around and asked with a smile.
"It's not very early, I just arrived."
Li Ran turned around and walked in.
“General Zhou said that according to the rules, we should not meet again before getting married.
But I forgot to show you the drawings they sent to you yesterday.”
Li Ran explained while walking.
"Um."
Xie Ze hummed snorted sceptically, "I have a few things, I have to tell you."
Li Ran breathed a sigh of relief.
Xie Ze glanced at her, paused, and then said, "In the future, there will only be more and more people who will tell you about this rule and that rule, but you should consider these rules yourself."
Xie Ze's words stopped, and then said, "As for Zhou E, she understands the rules?"
Li Ran uh, not answering Xie Ze's words.
She also felt that Zhou E didn't seem to know more about the rules than her.
