[Red Mansion] Married by decree

"You Lan, did Yimu take a break?" Daiyu didn't turn the pages of the poetry anthology in her hands for a long time.Although his eyes were fixed on the poetry collection, he couldn't read a single word.In the end, he could only sigh and put down the collection of poems.

"Slave maid, ask someone to ask." You Lan walked to the inside, and gave instructions to a second-class maid outside, and the maid took the order and left.

"Girl, are you worried about tomorrow?"

"How long has Youlan been by my side?"

"The servant has been serving the girl since she was a child, and it has been eight years now." You Lan's parents are also the Lin family's servants, and she was sent to serve Daiyu since she was a child.

"Youlan, I often think about what it would be like if I hadn't been given a marriage, if I hadn't been taken care of by my good parents, and if I was still living with my grandmother."

"It's all about nothing, so why would the girl bother herself. The slave looks at it, no matter Master Yi, Mrs. Yi or the prince, they all sincerely treat the girl well."

"I know that my mother-in-law and the others think I am young, but I actually know who is sincere and who is not. I also know that many people treat me well now because the person I was married to is a prince."

"Girl..." Ever since Daiyu came back from Jia's residence, she has kept nothing from Youlan.Whether sad or happy, nothing is hidden from Youlan.You Lan has been watching from the side, feeling sorry for her daughter.Huiji will hurt, my daughter is too smart.

"Youlan, it's because I know that my mother-in-law treats me sincerely, so I am more worried about tomorrow. What if I don't do well, what if the emperor and empress don't like me."

"Miss, don't worry, the lord has already sent someone to tell the girl the likes and dislikes of the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager. This servant thinks that the girl will do well." You Lan glanced at the half-burned candle. Time, the girl has rested.

"At this point, why doesn't Yu'er rest?" Not long after the sound of footsteps, Zhao walked in, her hair was simply tied, which was different from what she saw earlier.

"Yimu." Seeing Mrs. Zhao coming in, Daiyu stood up.After Mrs. Zhao sat down, she sat down again in the previous position.

"My mother-in-law just came over to see Yue'er and Lu'er."

"Yimu, Yu'er has nothing to do here, but I can't sleep." Looking at Zhao's attire at this time, Yu'er thought that when the maids in her courtyard went, Yimu might have already rested.

"Don't worry about Yu'er, my mother-in-law will be with you tomorrow. Besides, my family's Yu'er is well-behaved and sensible, and the emperor and empress dowager will definitely like it. I heard from your father-in-law that this time the emperor's southern tour, the prince is Accompanying."

"Yimu!" ​​Daiyu's face turned red, she didn't know if it was from embarrassment or because of the candlelight.

"Okay, mother-in-law won't tease Yu'er anymore, and Yu'er shouldn't be annoyed." Mrs. Zhao covered her mouth and smiled, and with such a smile, Daiyu's face turned even redder.

"Yimu, Yu'er is going to rest."

"Okay, Yu'er has a good rest, and my mother-in-law will come to find Yu'er tomorrow morning." Looking at Daiyu's appearance, Zhao smiled even more happily.

"Yimu, thank you." Daiyu's voice was softer than before, but Zhao still heard it.

"Silly Yu'er, we are mother and daughter."

Because the emperor arrived today, officials, gentry and businessmen waited in the hotel early in the morning.Zhao Ye was also standing in the waiting line.The positions in the team are all based on their status, and Zhao Ye's position is in the middle, neither forward nor backward.

Before the arrival of Shengjia, the area around the hotel was secretly controlled by the army.Although the people were not forcibly dispersed, people like beggars were not allowed to appear.It's not just Yangzhou, every place along Yujia's journey has done this.

A group of guards came here in the distance, and they were guarding three carriages in the middle.The carriage looks spacious and luxurious, and the horses pulling the carriage are all rare and good horses, even the coat color is the same.

Seeing the carriage approaching, the Yin of Yangzhou Prefecture bowed down and saluted, and shouted in his mouth: "Chen, Yangzhou Prefecture Yin Ningda welcomes you." His voice was neither soft nor heavy, but it was very penetrating.

As soon as the governor of Yangzhou started to speak, the other officials and businessmen standing behind him knelt down in unison.

The carriage stopped, but no one got out of the carriage.A majestic voice came from one of the carriages, and there were only two short words: "Excuse me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

"The emperor starts driving." A high-pitched voice sounded, and the stopped guards moved again in unison, and the convoy moved forward.

"I will send you off to the emperor respectfully." As the team moved forward, the person who had just stood up knelt down again.Waiting for the team to enter the pavilion, everyone got up.

"Which one is Zhao Ye?" Not long after, a person walked out of the hotel with the same high-pitched voice, who looked about 30 years old.

"Cao Min is right." Zhao Ye saluted the man and replied.

"Your Majesty's invitation. Lord Ning, Your Majesty invites you to go in together." Although the word "you" was used, there was no respect in the tone corresponding to this word.

The two were brought into the hall and arrived at the courtyard where the emperor was.When we got to the door, the guard standing at the door let Mr. Ning in.And Zhao Ye was led by the eunuch to another courtyard.

"The emperor ordered that the miscellaneous family take you to the Supreme Emperor's side. Ling's wife and daughter have already gone there first."

The location of the Supreme Emperor is not too far from the courtyard where the emperor lives, and he arrived after a short walk.After the guard outside gave a notification and got permission, the father-in-law brought Zhao Ye in.

The Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager were sitting in the room at this time, while Daiyu and Mrs. Zhao were standing below.Today's Daiyu is also wearing plain clothes. Although her hairstyle has been changed to a single spiral, she still does not wear any accessories.

"Craftsman Zhao Ye has met the Supreme Emperor and the Empress Dowager."

"Get up."

"Thank you for your kindness." The emperor's tone was cold, without much emotion.Zhao Ye secretly glanced at Daiyu and Zhao Shi, Daiyu lowered her head slightly, her expression was a little uneasy.But Zhao's expression was indifferent, and the handkerchief was unconsciously hooked in his hand.This is what Zhao shi subconsciously does when he thinks.

"Where are your Majesty and King Anshun?" After the Supreme Emperor let Zhao Ye get up, he stopped talking, but the Empress Dowager spoke.

"Go back to the empress dowager, the emperor and the prince are discussing matters. The emperor said that he will come with the prince after the discussion is over."

"Go back to the emperor's side to serve you."

"Your servant will leave." The eunuch stepped back towards the door, waited until he was outside the door, then turned and left.

"Lin girl, come to Ben Gong."

Although Daiyu was uneasy, she did not hesitate when she heard what the Queen Mother said.Thinking of the Queen Mother walking unhurriedly, when Daiyu approached, the Empress Dowager looked Daiyu carefully up and down, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, even the eyes were very kind.

"It's such a lovely girl, no wonder Yunze will protect her. Even I like it after seeing it. If it wasn't for that kid Yunze who preempted her, I would really like to recognize such a well-behaved and sensible adoptive daughter." When the queen mother was talking, she took Daiyu's hand with an affectionate look: "Don't look at the emperor, you have been thinking about meeting your future daughter-in-law since you were in the capital."

"Give me a seat." Regarding the Empress Dowager's words, the Supreme Emperor did not say anything, nor did he express his dissatisfaction. Instead, he asked Zhao Ye and his wife to show a seat.
