Reborn ten times, she is the real daughter of the Marquis Mansion and she doesn't pretend anymo
Chapter 143 The Initiative is No Longer in the Hou Mansion
Although the truth about the real and fake daughter of the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion has not been made public, people with a discerning eye have roughly guessed why the government emphasized that they were twin girls.
only……
Although Yuntang has not responded to many invitations or attended any banquets recently, the families she visits are not comparable to those of ordinary dignitaries.
Therefore, although she is not active, she is always the focus of attention and discussion.
On the contrary, Jiang Yingxue, the former daughter of the Marquis of Yong'an, was originally well-known in the capital, but she has not appeared in public recently. It is said that she is under house arrest.
The one who just returned was not liked by his biological mother, and the one who was originally brought up in pampering was now under house arrest again.
All of a sudden, people in the capital were talking about all kinds of things, and it was hard not to pay attention.
Both Prince Cheng's Mansion and Duke Ping's Mansion already know the truth about the real daughter and the fake daughter. Whether the Marquis Yong'an's Mansion cancels the engagement or not at this time, the initiative is no longer in the Marquis Yong'an's hands.
At the suggestion of Princess Kangning, Lady Pingguo advocated a marriage exchange.
The prince of a duke will inherit the title of duke in the future, so of course he has to marry a real daughter!
Therefore, even if the matter was made a fuss by the wife of the Duke of Pingguo, others would not say that she was unreasonable.
Instead, he would blame the Yong'an Marquisate and even want to force his adopted daughter, the fake daughter, to the young general and future duke.
Therefore, Lady Pingguo, who thought she had the Yong'an Marquisate in her control, took it for granted that she would give 300,000 taels of silver as a betrothal gift.
If the real and fake daughters were not too young, the wedding procession would have already arrived outside the Marquis's mansion.
How could Yong'an Hou not think of this? Last night, the three of them discussed the pros and cons of this matter for half the night.
In the end, they were still willing to bear the blame and cancel the engagement!
No matter how good the marriage is, if it will lead to enmity, it is better to cancel it early.
When Duke Ping returns to Beijing in the future, Marquis Yong'an will be able to explain a few things to him.
Jiang Yingxue is not his biological daughter, and he just found out about it. He did not conceal it intentionally to deceive the marriage, so I believe Duke Ping can understand.
If the Duke Ping's Mansion still wants to marry into the Yong'an Marquis' Mansion in the future and wants Jiang Yingxue to marry into the family, they can re-engage.
Jiang Yingxue will only be fourteen next year, and will not reach marriage age until the year after. By then, Prince Qin's injury will have long been healed, and the choice will still be in the hands of the Duke Ping's Mansion.
But now that the price has reached three hundred thousand taels, the engagement must be cancelled!
Marquis Yong'an explained all these concerns in detail, and Princess Cheng no longer dared to regret her marriage.
Although the marriage is good, the situation in Yong'an Marquis' Mansion is complicated now, and it would be unwise to create enmity.
But Princess Cheng couldn't understand why Yuntang refused to marry into the Duke Ping's Mansion.
She was favored in the imperial court. She used to be a little Taoist priest with an unknown background, but now she was the legitimate daughter of the Yong'an Marquisate. Marrying the prince of the Duke was a perfect match for her.
What's more, if Prince Qin had not been injured in the Western Border, he would have been an outstanding young general, and many noble ladies would have been vying to marry him.
As for Princess Cheng's confusion, Marquis Yong'an could not let the conflict affect the child, so he just said, "Tang'er's marriage will definitely be decided by the emperor."
"The princess is not good to Tang'er, and the emperor must be aware of this. If the princess interferes in the marriage, no matter if it is well-intentioned or not, it will definitely anger the emperor."
"I asked Tang'er last night. She said that a Taoist priest wouldn't get married too early. She is a member of the Azure Dragon Guard, so it's impossible for her to get married and become a concubine at the back of the palace early. We should not worry about her marriage."
After mentioning the Emperor and reminding Princess Kangning of her bad behavior, Princess Cheng couldn't say anything else.
Prince Cheng thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to the palace later. This matter involves the relationships between several families, so I'd better get a definite answer before I talk about canceling the engagement."
Seeing that he was going to enter the palace, Marquis Yong'an agreed and asked him to wait for only one more day.
Yuntang has already gone to Yunshang Temple. Even if the Duke Ping's Mansion takes 300,000 taels, it is impossible for it to be accomplished in a day or two.
They all heard that Yuntang wanted gold, silver and fine jade, and would not accept anything else.
It would take at least two days to exchange the silver notes for silver at the bank. You had to make arrangements with the bank in advance, otherwise you might not be able to withdraw such a large amount.
So Prince Cheng went to the palace without delay.
Marquis Yong'an wanted to go with them but was afraid that the emperor would hold him accountable. After all, Yuntang was involved in all the recent events in the mansion, and he didn't want the emperor to settle all the old and new accounts with him.
Princess Cheng was very worried about her daughter, but it was not convenient for her to go to the Marquis's Mansion often, so she sent the housekeeper, the head nanny, with the palace's doctor to visit the Marquis's Mansion and reprimand her daughter on her behalf.
Ever since she witnessed her daughter's noise and stubbornness last time, she and the prince reached a consensus when they returned home that they could no longer blindly protect her without asking what was right or wrong.
Now that their grandchildren have grown up, what do their grandchildren think of them, as elders, who cannot distinguish right from wrong?
Just because they listened to one side and hurt Yuntang's heart, now that child can't even be invited, they regret it!
...While things were going on in the capital, Yunshang Temple was also busy.
Yuntang has been preparing for tomorrow's ritual.
After finishing her evening lessons at night, she still climbed into the large green wooden coffin and lay down next to Senior Brother Nine, letting the Dao rhythm flow in the coffin, which would naturally benefit Senior Brother Nine.
Early the next morning, at the south gate of the capital, many people either rented horse-drawn carriages or rented a carriage together, and hurried to Yunshang Temple.
There were also many people from the villages and towns at the foot of Panlong Ridge, who came here in groups, well prepared.
Many people also brought their elderly and children with them, and they were obviously more pious, setting out early and walking.
The Qinglong Guards were divided into seven teams, each with a blue-clad messenger leading a black-clad guard.
Some arrived at the foot of Panlong Ridge before dawn, while others headed south with the people leaving the city after dawn.
Each of their teams carries a mysterious heart stone.
Yunshang Temple set up two checkpoints at the foot of the mountain and the entrance of the stone steps up the mountain.
The first level is to use the Xuanxin Stone to test one's piety in devotion to Taoism, that is, to check the power of faith. The second level is to give each person a peace amulet.
The believers who pass the test and receive the amulets will surely feel happy and generate more power of faith, which will be input into Yun Xuanmo.
Today, every Taoist priest in Yunshang Temple wore a Pure Heart Silver Bell, as they did not want today's ritual to be ruined by anything.
The last team of Qinglong Guards to leave the city was led by Crown Prince Xiao Che himself, who also brought with him an imperial edict to confer a title.
The one who attended the court early this morning was the emperor, Xiao Beichen.
When all the civil and military officials arrived at the Wuying Palace, they found that the emperor was already sitting on the dragon throne. They were all surprised and hurried into the palace to kowtow.
There were some disputes at the beginning when the crown prince was regent, but under the crown prince's strong execution ability, the court has been much calmer in the past two days.
They also learned that the Crown Prince was in court, the Prince of Qi was in charge of the Imperial Study, and the Emperor was practicing in the Qingfeng Palace. No matter which camp they were in or what plans they had, they all put them aside.
They finally understood one thing: no matter which side they stood on, the Crown Prince and the Prince of Qi were brothers who worked together to manage the country.
