Jinxiu Nanzhi, determined to be the richest woman

Chapter 480 The wise king asks for marriage

As soon as the Xian King relaxed, the housekeeper quickly handed the list of all the worthy aristocratic girls to the Xian King for him to pick. Although the Queen Mother raised the Xian King, she stood behind her son after all. Yes, as the wife of a wise king, she naturally has to choose someone of her own!

The Xian Wang flipped through the previous pages and ranked them according to the rank of the aristocratic family. Finally, he chose the youngest daughter of Grand Master Zhang Derong. She was a direct descendant and Zhang Derong’s favorite youngest daughter. Zhang Derong had two daughters. The eldest daughter was born to his first wife. His first daughter, who later married a Tanhua, is now the prefect of Ancha Province. He took office and was transferred to the post after the prefect Xia was killed many years ago.

Zhang Derong was very dissatisfied with this marriage. He was originally going to arrange to become a concubine in the palace, but unexpectedly, he secretly interacted with that Tanhua and was discovered by others, so he had to go through with the marriage! The eldest daughter Zhang Rongyu's personality is very similar to that of her own mother. There are many things about her father that Zhang Rongyu can't stand. She has wanted to leave the family since she was a child, even if she married far away! Since getting married, she has almost lost contact with her natal family.

As for the youngest daughter, Zhang Rongyan is the daughter of Zhang Derong’s later wife. Zhang Rongyan is very similar to her mother. She looks as gentle as water, but her fox eyes are very charming! Zhang Derong and his current wife, old husband and young wife, are the subject of many people's talks, but people don't care about this.

After choosing the person, the wise king sent someone to communicate with the grand master. After confirming the decision, he went to the palace to find the queen mother to ask for the order.

"You said you want to marry Zhang Rongyan, the youngest daughter of the Grand Master's family?" The Queen Mother was very surprised when she heard the request of the wise king. Did she come to propose marriage in such a graceful manner? Didn’t this good son say he didn’t have anyone he liked and didn’t want to get married? He is now twenty-nine! Although he is the youngest son of the late emperor, he is also the child who is least like the late emperor among all the princes. This child was ten years old when the late emperor passed away. His personality and behavior were not to the late emperor's liking. His mother was able to raise him here because he had a difficult delivery. She pitied him. He was just brought here to be raised. Every time he came, the late emperor would never take the initiative to ask about this child!

Let’s talk about Zhang Rongyan, who is just over fifteen years old and has a haircut. This... forget it, she must have been relieved! Why should we care about this!

"Does the Zhang family know about this?" the Queen Mother asked again.

"I know! It's true that Rong Yan has passed the age of Jiji, and the Grand Master's family proposed marriage for her. Rong Yan refused and wanted to wait for the day when I am willing to marry! The Grand Master's family refused to agree, so they were a little confused. My son I don’t want her to die at an ordinary age! I beg my mother to grant her permission!” the wise king sighed.

"Is it that girl from the Zhang family who caused the trouble?"

"It's your fault!"

"That's all! It's fine if you are willing. You will eventually get married. Since the girl wants to wait for you, don't waste her good time!"

"That's right! Last time Mrs. Zhongqin's maiden sister and daughter were of the right age! You can choose one of them, and the Ai family will be your concubine. After all, they have been waiting for you for many years!" The Queen Mother said by the way. The lady from Earl Zhongqin’s Mansion has also mentioned what happened last time she came here! If you can bring one out by the way, don't keep coming to the door, and come into the palace every now and then. I really don't have the energy to deal with it!

The wise king lowered his head, but he didn't avoid it after all. He had already said he would consider it a few times, but this time it was hard to argue with him, and the Queen Mother didn't mean to refuse in her words!

"Then choose the count's maiden sister!"

"Okay! Mammy, go and ask someone from the Ministry of Rites to come over and see which day is better!" The Queen Mother immediately sent someone to find someone from the Ministry of Rites.

When someone called him, the Queen Mother asked him to see which day was suitable!

The people from the Etiquette Department looked through the book and picked a few dates. March was the wedding ceremony for King Xiaoan, so the people from the Etiquette Department didn't pick a date that was too close.

"The Queen Mother, May 26th, June 17th, and August 5th are all suitable days!"

The Queen Mother summed it up and nodded, "Then it will be June 17th! How about giving you more time to prepare?" The Queen Mother looked at the wise king.

"Queen mother, I'm afraid something is wrong! Rong Yan can't afford to wait!"

"What's wrong with her?" the Queen Mother asked in confusion.

"Rong Yan has actually committed suicide! My son is really afraid of something happening again, so it's better to get married as soon as possible!"

The Queen Mother looked at him and already guessed what it meant!

"Look again, the days are nearby!" the Queen Mother said to the people in the Ministry of Rites.

"When I get back to the Queen Mother, it's only February 15th nearby! But it's only half a month before Prince Xiaoan gets married, so I'm afraid I won't be ready in time!"

"Mother, let's do it on February 15th! The wedding ceremony should be simple!" the wise king agreed.

"That's it! You can do it if you want! But you have to prepare everything that needs to be prepared, and there is not much time! Hurry up! Don't make any mistakes!"

The Queen Mother then went to draw up the edict, and after it was sealed, she still had to get it stamped by the Ministry of Rites before leaving the palace to announce the edict at the home of the person giving the marriage.

"The time is still too tight! We should prepare well!" The Queen Mother took the Yizhi to seal it and looked at the wise king and said.

"No problem!" The wise king shook his head, talked to the queen mother, and left the palace.

"Mommy, go and get the wedding items prepared for Jingyuan and Mumu. No matter what, bring them to the Ai family first. Just tell the Ai family to check them one by one! Then let the people from the etiquette department follow these. , prepare another one according to the royal etiquette! If you can't prepare everything, you must prepare all the necessary ones!" the Queen Mother said to her mother.

This boy, by choosing such a close date, he was just looking at Jingyuan’s wedding ceremony and had almost prepared everything! It’s good to use it first when the time comes! Beautiful thought! The Queen Mother looked at the direction in which King Xian went out and thought.
