Chapter 1268: A Big Day's Wedding(1/2)
"My third uncle is really joking. I am just an ordinary woman and I am not a slaughter in the court. How can I help you?" Yun Jiao looked at her with some amusement.
If Lin Jinrong was soft, she might be a little soft-hearted when she talked about her kind motherly heart.
But she is tough, and she is so tough when she asks others. Whoever wants to help her is wrong. She doesn't do such a humble thing.
"Okay, you said this. Remember it for me. Let's take a look!" Lin Jinrong glared at her viciously and went angrily.
Yun Jiao ignored her and stepped forward to support Mrs. Qin: "Grandma, go into the house and sit down."
"I won't go." Old Mrs. Qin looked at Lin Jinrong's departure back with a worried look on her face: "How is this good? I'm afraid it's going to cause trouble again. Jiao'er, if you have a way, you can help her. After all, they are all a family, and Luan'er really doesn't want to enter the palace, otherwise you can talk to Feng'er..."
She said as she held Yun Jiao's hand tightly and prayed with a look of pleading.
"Grandma, it's not that I don't want to help, do you see, this is something I can help?
I asked Nanfeng last night, and he said that the official's intentions have been decided, and this matter must not be changed, so we can't make things difficult for him, right?
Although the government now valued him, he was just a minister. If he asked Luan'er for mercy, wouldn't the government doubt his loyalty?" Yun Jiao was still very patient with the old man and explained the pros and cons in detail.
"How do you doubt it? He just loves his sister." Old Mrs. Qin felt that this made no sense.
"It is a blessing to enter the palace, not to endure hardships. How could a loyal person even be reluctant to let his sister go to the palace?" Yun Jiao said softly: "Actually, my grandmother should be able to understand that Nanfeng's momentum in the court now, and the government will not let this go.
It would be fine if he had a real sister, but he didn't, so he could only be Sister Luan."
Mrs. Qin sighed: "Don't I know? It's just that your third uncle went to the North Courtyard to make trouble early in the morning. Your grandfather and I were really annoyed. I was forced to do nothing, so I followed her.
Since you said no, I won’t say much, I’ll go back to the yard.”
She didn't want to care about these things at such age, but what the third daughter-in-law said was really ugly, and she couldn't argue with her even if she didn't care about a word, so she had the first one.
"I'll give my grandmother to see you off." Yun Jiao helped her out.
"Young Madam, Young Madam..."
As soon as I left the yard, I saw the guard guard running towards me.
"What happened? Don't be anxious, just say it slowly." Yun Jiao stopped.
"Young lady..." The servant stood up, panting, and was about to speak when he suddenly saw the old lady Qin beside him, and quickly saluted: "I have seen the old lady..."
"No need to be polite, what should I say?" Old Mrs. Qin saw his anxious look and guessed that something must have happened before.
"It's the palace, someone is coming from the palace..." The servant stretched out his hand and pointed at the direction of the gate: "Eunuch Wan is coming to pass on the official's order. The lady asked me to ask the young lady to go to the front hall."
"I'll go now." Yun Jiao turned to look at Mrs. Qin: "Grandma, I'll go first."
"I'll go together, right?" Mrs. Qin took two steps.
"No need, my grandmother is old and has never cared about things. Otherwise, I will stay in my yard for a while and I will come back to tell my grandmother." She stood up.
"Okay, I'm not straight and half of my legs are not easy to walk. Don't delay, go quickly." Mrs. Qin was a good talker and agreed immediately.
When Yun Jiao arrived in front, she saw Eunuch Wan standing in the main hall with a few internal supervisors.
Her mother-in-law, Gu Wanshu, Lin Jinrong and Qin Yuluan were all there, and they were already kneeling down, as if waiting for her.
Originally, there was an imperial edict at home, and everyone in the family should come out to answer the meeting.
However, it is reasonable for the elderly at home to be sick and unable to move. If they don’t come out and kneel down, it is well known that the officials today are kind and will not care about these things.
Yun Jiao took two steps and knelt down beside Zhao Zhongzhu.
“Present—
Qin Yuluan, the daughter of the minister, received the order!" Eunuch Wan sang loudly.
There was silence in the hall.
Lin Jinrong quietly pushed Qin Yuluan. Although she was extremely reluctant, she knew that the emperor's order was difficult. If she openly resisted at this time, she might not be able to save her head.
"My daughter received the order." Qin Yuluan bit her lip and responded.
"I am honored by Haotian's will. Now I have a daughter named Qin Yuluan. Jiarou is self-controlled and has a proper way to advance and retreat..."
The voice of Eunuch Wan was slightly sharp and clearly reached everyone's ears.
Yun Jiao looked at it secretly, and everyone looked down obediently. Only Lin Jinrong and his daughter were different. Eunuch Wan recited a series of praises, but their mother and daughter's faces became increasingly ugly.
Everyone knows what will happen next after these words are finished.
"...You can give Qin Yuluan a special gift to enter the palace three days later, and give the honor of Jie Concubine, and join the ranks of all the people in the harem." After reading the imperial edict in one breath, Eunuch Wan sang again: "Qin Yuluan receives the imperial edict!"
Qin Yuluan walked forward with her knees and raised her hands: "My daughter received the order."
"Congratulations to Miss Qin." Eunuch Wan handed the imperial edict to her.
Qin Yuluan held the imperial edict and couldn't speak.
"What? The official special advised the girl to enter the palace without having to participate in the talent show. Why isn't the girl very happy to see her?" Seeing that her face was wrong, Eunuch Wan couldn't help but ask.
Lin Jinrong hurried forward: "This child has never seen the world at such a young age. This is the first time he has encountered such a thing. He is still shy. Don't blame him, father-in-law."
"This is human nature." Eunuch Wan smiled and said, "No wonder, no wonder, I'll go back first after the imperial edict was issued."
"I'll send my father-in-law." Yun Jiao followed and walked out of the hall. She took out a ingot of silver and stuffed it into the hands of Eunuch Wan: "Thank you for your hard work, my father-in-law."
"No, no, no, major general Qin is now a celebrity in front of the official family. It is my honor to come to his house to pass the imperial edict." Eunuch Wan hurriedly pushed the silver back.
People like him are always in front of the official family and are more sophisticated than monkeys. He knows clearly what kind of money he can get and what money he can't take.
Qin Nanfeng is now in a proud mood, how could he take advantage of their family? If he is unhappy and speaks a few words to the official family, his life will be lost.
He doesn't want to take this risk.
"Don't think too much, father-in-law." Yun Jiao pushed the silver back again: "It's my husband who is in the palace all day long. He is sometimes a little reckless. If there is anything wrong, please ask your father-in-law to give it more. It's not much, even if you're invited to tea."
She heard Xiao Wu say that this Eunuch Wan is directed at him, and he has helped him a few times without you, but now he is here, so she can't let anyone come back empty-handed, at least she should give her some meaning.
"This is easy to say, easy to say." Eunuch Wan nodded repeatedly: "I don't want the money..."
"Didn't my father-in-law think it's too young?" Yun Jiao asked with a stern face on purpose.
"That's not..." Eunuch Wan quickly explained.
"Then take it, I have to go back and take a look, father-in-law walk slowly." Yun Jiao stuffed the silver back again, turned around and left.
Eunuch Wan called her but couldn't stop, so she had to go with the money.
Yun Jiao entered the hall and saw everyone getting up, looking at each other one by one, and no one spoke.
"Congratulations to Sister Luan, Congratulations to my third uncle. This is a great joy for our family." Yun Jiao smiled and said, "Since the imperial edict has been accepted, don't delay. Go back and prepare things quickly. The imperial edict says that it will enter the palace in three days. There are a lot of things to prepare, so the time is not enough."
This matter was decided, and she felt very happy. Lin Jinrong and her old hatred, Qin Yuluan and her new hatred were all resolved at this moment.
She felt much more relaxed. Since her mother passed away, she has never felt wronged.
Lin Jinrong is on the first day of the lunar month, and she is on the fifteenth day of the year. Everyone is on each other, and she doesn’t think she has done anything bad.
"You..." Qin Yuluan's eyes were already red. Hearing this, he reached out to her: "Are you gloating?"
"Sister Luan." Yun Jiao stretched out her hand and pushed her hand away: "You are already a concubine from the official family. Be careful about your words and deeds, so as not to offend those who cannot offend after entering the palace. Then you won't even know how you die."
Did Qin Yuluan finally reveal her true appearance? Didn’t she always be gentle and delicate before and remain silent? Now, she can’t help it.
Seeing her like this, it is not surprising that she would cut the pine and snowflakes into pieces.
"What do you mean? You are gloating, I can't say it?" Qin Yuluan was so angry that she burst into tears.
No matter how high she is, she is still a little girl. How can she withstand Yun Jiao's words?
"The official family wants you to enter the palace. That is your great honor and a great joy. How can you say it is a disaster or a disaster?" Yun Jiao glanced at her: "If you don't say anything, just the four words "schadenfreshing" just now will be enough for you to die once."
"I don't need you to care." Qin Yuluan glared at her hatefully.
"Who wants to care about you? I just don't want to be implicated by you." Yun Jiao took Zhao Zhongzhu: "Mom, let's go back. Sister Luan is going to enter the palace. According to customs, we should also back up generous gifts."
"Okay." Zhao Zhongzhu nodded and followed her out.
"Who wants your gift? Get out, I don't want to see you..."
"Ba"
Qin Yuluan almost collapsed, picked up the teacup beside her and threw it on the ground.
Her age is just like a flower when a girl is in her youth. These days, she has seen many young talents and yearns to marry a wishful husband.
Her mother has a high vision, but in fact she has a higher vision. Every time she returns to kiss, she means her mother, but in fact, she actually picks those men openly and secretly. Later, the more she thinks about it, the more she feels that those men are not worthy of her, and finally she proposes to withdraw from the marriage.
So although everyone says she is obedient and well-behaved, she actually understands in her heart that the reason why she is obedient is because what she gets is what she wants.
How can she achieve her goal without being so cool and pretending to be obedient and clever?
But just because her fifth brother rode a horse in the street, she actually wanted to enter the palace. Following the old man in the official family, she was only in her teens, how could she be with an old man?
Although he is an official, she is so old and she is unwilling to accept it!
Looking at the fifth sister-in-law in front of me, she had never suffered since she entered the door. She was in charge of the house and opened a teahouse, and she also wanted to return the residence occupied by her eldest aunt. Her grandparents praised her, and her uncle and aunt gave in. She even gave up on her greetings in the morning. The fifth brother, who was her husband, was even more amazing. She wanted to hold her to the sky, but she couldn't bear to let her down.
She wanted to find such a husband? But not only did she not, she was also implicated and went to the palace to follow the old man in the official family. Why did she want to enter the palace? She was gloating here by Yun Jiao's life like this!
She swore that she must make the couple turn against each other!
"Uncle San." Yun Jiao heard the movement and looked back at the broken teacup on the ground: "This set of tea set costs 27 taels and 5 cents of silver. I bought it from Jingdemen. I will send you the bill here later.
To be continued...
