Cannot attack objects

In the early morning of the second day, Zhong Shao really went to the Princess Mansion, and at the same time brought letters, account books and gifts.

In fact, the eldest princess has been waiting for her in the mansion for a long time. How could she not know that Concubine Yu called Zhong Shao into the palace? She thought that Zhong Shao would definitely come to the house soon after getting the news, but who knew that she could hold back her temper and hold back... I've been waiting for so many days.Jing Guogong had gone to the funeral yesterday, if she didn't come to the door today, the eldest princess might have to think again - so leisurely, but she didn't take her daughter to heart?

If Zhong Shao knew what the eldest princess was thinking, he might have to cry for injustice.After all, marriage is not a matter of one person. Even if she and Su Mo are in love, such important matters need to be discussed with her, but because of the delay in Jing Guogong's funeral, she has not yet found a chance to talk to Su Mo.And today, if it wasn't for the letter, she probably wouldn't have come to the door.

As soon as he stepped into the main hall of the Princess Mansion, Zhong Shao saw the Eldest Princess waiting in the hall with a cold face.This is normal for her, every time the eldest princess of the left and right sees her, she doesn't have a good face, if the other party greets her with a smile today, she might be too scared to move her legs.But considering that the two families are about to get married, but the eldest princess still has such an attitude, Zhong Shao can't help but feel a little bit heartbroken.

After tidying up his mood, Zhong Shaomai stepped into the hall, saluted the Eldest Princess respectfully, and presented the two boxes in his hand: "Prepare a little gift, and I hope Your Highness will not abandon it."

Seeing her coming to the door with a gift, the eldest princess thought she was the governor, and her complexion finally looked better.She casually ordered people to sit down, took the two boxes over by the way, and without opening them, she looked at Zhong Shaoming knowingly and asked, "Why did you come here today?"

Zhong Shao really wanted to say that he was here to discuss the marriage, but after thinking about it, the business was more important, so he suppressed it for the time being.She straightened her face, pointed to one of the two boxes, and said, "Your Highness, someone from Suzhou brought the things to me the day before yesterday. After I checked it, I thought there was nothing wrong with it, so I sent it to His Highness to have a look. As for the disposal , Your Highness, please consider it.”

The eldest princess was taken aback when she heard the words, and said to herself: No wonder there are two boxes as a gift.But thinking about it, she also knew that there was nothing wrong with Zhong Shao's actions, but she was still a little dissatisfied in her heart. She always felt that Zhong Shao cared more about these mundane affairs than Su Mo, which was not good.

Different from ordinary people, the eldest princess does not say that the power is in the hands of the government, but also has great power in her hands.As a mother, she actually didn't expect Su Mo's husband-in-law to have the ambition to rise to the sky. Compared with talent and ambition, the eldest princess obviously cared more about whether that man was devoted to Su Mo.Just like a person like Su Han, with talent, appearance and background, no one can say that he is not good, but in her opinion, he must be a lifelong lover.

Zhong Shao didn't know which sentence he said was wrong, why didn't the eldest princess check the things she sent, but stared at her non-stop?And if she was not mistaken, the look in the other party's eyes was not satisfaction, but suspicion and disgust in the pickiness!

"Your Highness?" Zhong Shao reminded with some anxiety.

After hearing the sound, the eldest princess finally withdrew her scrutiny. She casually opened the box at hand and took a look. The letters and account books contained in it were clear at a glance.However, she didn't take it out to take a closer look. She just glanced at it casually and then closed the box again. Instead, she opened another larger box and saw a delicate and beautiful antique vase inside, so she took it out. After looking at it twice, he asked, "Did Mo'er choose?"

Zhong Shao nodded and said, "I met you in Suzhou, Ah Mo said you would like it..."

The eldest princess frowned slightly, but then let go.She didn't say anything, just put the vase back, and said: "The things have been delivered, if there is nothing wrong, you can go back home."

Wait, this is different from what you said. Your Highness, aren't you going to let Amo and I get married quickly while we are in the heat?Why don't you say a word about marriage, and you're going to drive him away? !

Zhong Shao was a little dumbfounded, and then he couldn't sit still, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, wait a moment, there is still one thing to discuss with Your Highness in detail."

The eldest princess didn't really chase people away. Hearing this, she glanced over quietly and said, "Speak up if you have something to do. Why are you procrastinating?"

"I..." Zhong Shao opened his mouth when he heard the words, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he blushed first.After all, she is young, has a thin skin, and marriage matters have always been ordered by her parents and the matchmaker's words. It is really hard for her to come and discuss with Su Mo's mother herself.

In fact, if Su Mo was not the daughter of the eldest princess, Concubine Yu Guifei could have settled this matter directly with an oral order, or she could have asked Emperor Taiping for a marriage.However, Su Mo's background is noble, and the eldest princess and Concubine Yu are still allies, so this kind of matter can only be decided after careful discussion with her.And the eldest princess didn't want Concubine Yu Gui to intervene, she just wanted to hear Zhong Shao's personal promise.

Seeing that Zhong Shao's face was flushed from holding back, the eldest princess also knew that she had a tender face, so it was rare that she didn't dislike her.She waited patiently without saying a word, until Zhong Shao's face was flushed like blood, and then she heard her Qiqi Ai Ai whisper: "I... I'm... junior, I want to ask His Highness to marry you... please marry me Mo, please fulfill your Highness!"

After saying a word, Zhong Shao's face turned even redder, so that the eldest princess was afraid that she would be too shy, and suffocated herself to death in one breath.

However, her performance like this made the eldest princess' previous dissatisfaction and unhappiness dissipate a bit. After all, only if you care about it will you be anxious, and only if you like it will you be shy.The dark lock's brows relaxed slightly, and the eldest princess stared at Zhong Shao for a while before she said, "Since you're here to propose, what about your sincerity?"

Sincerity, what sincerity, dowry?

It was only then that Zhong Shao remembered in a daze that the marriage contract was just a stopgap measure back then, and neither of the two parties thought that one day this marriage would really come true.So he hurriedly signed a marriage letter, and after dealing with the draft, he didn't do anything anymore. None of the lottery, name asking, Najib, and recruiting were done, so of course there was no betrothal gift and the like. sent.

Empty hands and open mouth to ask for a kiss or something...

Zhong Shao suddenly wanted to cry but had no tears. He felt that he was really stupid, and he was even more afraid that the eldest princess would be even more unhappy because of his momentary ignorance.But it was the first time in her life that she was talking about marriage, and there was no elder to take care of her at home. She had been thinking wildly these days, how could she think of so much? !

Holding tightly to the armrest of the wooden chair with one hand, Zhong Shao really couldn't sit still, she moved slightly, and unconsciously looked at the eldest princess with pitiful eyes: "Your Highness... Your Highness, I came here in a hurry today, can I Allow me to go back and prepare again?"

The eldest princess almost laughed angrily when she heard the words, but looking at Zhong Shao's pitiful eyes, another pair of eyes appeared in her mind in a trance, and she couldn't bear to be harsh.In the end, he just said angrily: "What do you think of Mo'er? Is it a commodity bought and sold outside? If you want to come to ask for a marriage, then ask for it, and if you have something to do, just tell me to come back at another time?!"

These words were so heartbreaking, Zhong Shao couldn't sit still when he heard the words, he hurriedly stood up and said: "No, I made a slip of the tongue, Ah Mo is so important to me, how could it be, how could it be... If you are rude, please punish your Highness!"

Zhong Shao's anxiety and panic did not seem to be fake. The eldest princess looked at her and suddenly thought of Su Han back then. The two of them had a very close relationship at the beginning. Su Han had also been so anxious and panicked by her, but in the end...

For a moment, she lost interest, and the eldest princess gave a rare sigh, and finally asked bluntly: "But the dowry is not prepared yet?"

Zhong Shao's face flushed red again, and she nodded honestly: "After I, Auntie told me, I was too excited, and I just...forgot it." After saying this, Zhong Shao really had no face to look up. , buried his head low.

The eldest princess was actually not very surprised, because Zhong Shao's family had no elders to take care of her, and it was not convenient for her to find a matchmaker to prepare for Duke Jing's funeral, so it was only natural for her to be negligent.However, even such an important thing as the dowry was neglected, and it still made people feel dumbfounded, so the princess asked again: "Then how long do you plan to go back to propose marriage?"

Zhong Shao secretly calculated in his heart, hot filial piety only lasted for 49 days, and it has already been ten or so days.The six ceremonies for getting married: accepting the lottery, asking the name, Najib, accepting the sign, asking for a date, and welcoming each other, each of which takes a lot of time. The time is so urgent that it kills people, and I don't know if there are any good days in these days?

But for Su Mo, this relative has to succeed!Zhong Shao gritted his teeth and said, "Your Highness, I will come back in three days."

The betrothal gift is actually only given when accepting the levy, and the first gift among the six ceremonies is the live geese.Zhong Shao planned to go to Duke Jing's mansion the next day, so he wanted to talk to Su Mo.With Su Mo's consent, she ordered people to prepare the dowry, while hunting two live geese by herself. If she couldn't hunt them, she would buy them. Three days should be enough.

The eldest princess didn't let go or make it difficult, she nodded and said: "Then I will be with you for three days."

Seeing that the eldest princess is so talkative, Zhong Shao is also relieved, and is ready to leave immediately and go back, so that people can start shopping now.But before saying goodbye, she heard the Eldest Princess say again: "Don't worry, I haven't promised to promise my daughter to you yet."

"..." Your Royal Highness, didn't you mention this marriage first?Why are you in no rush now? ! ! !

Well, now the eldest princess is not in a hurry, but Zhong Shao is.Before she mentioned this matter, she didn't dare to think that the two would get married at all, and she only wanted to maintain the marriage contract and not let Su Mo marry someone else.But when hope appears, it will naturally be like a prairie fire, igniting her "ambition" in an instant - making an appointment to get married is a temptation that every couple in love can't refuse, even if they are risking the world's evil!

After hearing what the eldest princess said, Zhong Shao became a little anxious, and she hurriedly said, "I will definitely agree to any requests from Your Highness."

This time Zhong Shao acted knowledgeable, the eldest princess nodded in satisfaction, and said: "If you want to marry Mo'er, you have to promise me a few things first."

Zhong Shao nodded hurriedly, wanting to agree to everything, but was afraid that doing so would appear negligent, so he said patiently, "Please speak, Your Highness."

The eldest princess looked at her, raised a finger and said, "First, you can't take concubines."

Taking a concubine has nothing to do with Zhong Shao, so she nodded without thinking, "I promise."

It was probably because Zhong Shao agreed too readily, and the eldest princess couldn't help but look at her suspiciously, but she didn't see lies or perfunctory in Zhong Shao's eyes, on the contrary, she was sincere.She was stunned for a moment, and she didn't know how much she could believe, but she didn't say much for the time being, she just raised a finger and said: "Secondly, after getting married, Mo'er is in charge of all affairs in your house."

Zhong Shao also had no objection, so he nodded and replied, "I listen to Ah Mo."

The eldest princess is not worried, her daughter knows that her means are not bad, and because of her age, Zhong Shao has always listened to her all these years.So when this point was revealed, the Eldest Princess raised her third finger, and said sternly: "Third, no matter what, you can't bully her in this life. If one day you betray Mo'er, I will make you forever!"

When she said this, the Eldest Princess' eyes were extremely sharp, making people feel guilty and terrified unconsciously.But Zhong Shao did not back down. She met the eyes of the eldest princess, and solemnly made an oath: "To Ah Mo, I will only respect and love her in this life, and I will definitely not bully her. If you violate this word, you don't have to. If Your Highness strikes, I will commit suicide and apologize!"

She spoke eloquently, with the sincerity and sincerity unique to young people on her face, and she had a force that was unbelievable.

The eldest princess looked at her silently for a while, then nodded slightly.Zhong Shao felt relieved, but at the next moment, he heard the Eldest Princess raise her voice and say: "Come here, prepare your pen and ink."

The servant girl standing outside the main hall hurriedly agreed, and then left in a hurry, apparently to fetch pens and inks.

Then at the next moment, the eldest princess turned her head and said to Zhong Shao as a matter of course: "No one can stand without trust. But I have never trusted others, so write down everything you promised just now."

Zhong Shao was speechless for a while, so he nodded and agreed, "Okay."

The author has something to say:

The eldest princess (required): If you want to marry my daughter, you must first write a letter of guarantee

Zhong Shao (decisive): OK

The eldest princess (suspicious): So straightforward?

Zhong Shao (hesitating): ...OK

The eldest princess (angry): How dare you hesitate? !

Zhong Shao (...): What crime did I do in my previous life to meet such a mother-in-law? !
