Chapter 334: Chapter 334, getting married

The sixth day of the third month was a great day for getting married. There were many joyous events in Chang ‘an today, and everywhere one went, one could hear the sounds of joy.

There was also a joyous event in marquis an Yuan’s manor. A letter from Qiao Ruoyun had arrived from the south of the Yangtze River. Her efforts had paid off, and with the blessing of the heavens, Qiao Ruoyun was finally pregnant.

After Zheng Xiao learned of this, he went into the imperial palace and told Qiao Jinniang about this joyous event.

“I originally thought that your sister would not be able to get pregnant so quickly. The heavens have pity on her. She has finally settled a worry in her heart,”Zheng Xiao said.

Qiao Jinniang smiled slightly. “It can be said that the bitter end has come to the bitter end. This is truly a series of joyous events.”

Zheng Xiao said, “That’s right. Fu Lu is going to give birth in a few months. If your sister Feng is also pregnant, the Qiao family will have a lot of children. Only that child, Ruo Yi, is left…”

“I know that she still holds a grudge against the Marquis because of Aunt’s matter, but she will have to get married eventually. Now that His Majesty has given her a new position in the Ministry of appointments to manage all the female officials in the various regions, the number of men who come to talk about marriage has suddenly decreased by a lot.”

Qiao jinniang advised, “Mother, ruoyi also knows in her heart. Moreover, she is not old.”

Zheng Xiao said helplessly, “I’m just afraid that she won’t be willing to get married in the future.”

Qiao jinniang smiled and said, “It’s not that the Qiao family can’t afford to support her. Besides, she already has her own salary now.”

Zheng Xiao:”…”

..

The Yue family’s wedding banquet guests were not as many as the Fuma’s residence, but there were still quite a number of them. It was quite lively and lively.

Qin Miaomiao sat in the new house. The handkerchief in her hand was already wet with sweat. It was not her first time getting married, but it was the first time she was so nervous.

Hearing the footsteps from outside, her heart beat even harder.

The door creaked open, and after it opened, Qin Miaomiao took off the wedding fan and looked at Yue Zhan with a smile. “Husband.”

Yue Zhan walked to Qin Miaomiao’s side and did not wait for him to say anything.

Qin Miaomiao stood up and said, “Husband, if you still miss the princess, you can go to the eldest princess’mansion now…”

Before she could finish, Yue Zhan went up and grabbed her wrist. “You’re already married to me, and you still want to be a virtuous wife in Chang ‘an? Lin Mo can do it, but I can’t do it!”

Yue Zhan took a deep breath and said, “I liked Jing Hua, and I wanted to protect her for the rest of my life. But she doesn’t need me to be with her. If I don’t want to marry you, it’s not impossible to resist the imperial decree!

“Although His Majesty will blame me for not giving the Empress Face, at worst, I won’t be the general. I’m not the imperial decree, but I’m willing to marry you.”

Qin Miao Miao pursed his lips when he heard that. His hands trembled slightly as he said, “Then husband, let’s Rest…”

On the wedding night, the dragon and Phoenix were very happy and the candles were very bright. Old Madam Yue heard the servant girl say that there was water in the main courtyard.

Her heart finally settled down. After circling around for so many years, it was not easy for Yue Zhan to let go of the eldest princess.

Because it was an imperial decree from the Empress, the next day, after Qin Miaomiao served old madam Yue tea, she went to Chang le palace with Yue Zhan to thank him.

Seeing Qin Miaomiao’s energetic appearance, Lady Qiao smiled in relief, “When I first came to Chang ‘an, only you and Fu Lu treated me very well. Now that you are married, it’s good.

“Ruo Yun is also worried about you. Some time ago, she wrote that because she was pregnant, she could not come to Chang ‘an to attend your wedding banquet. Now, she should be at ease.”

“Sister-in-law, Princess Wu is pregnant? That’s Great!”

Qin Miaomiao was genuinely happy for his sister-in-law. He also thought that if his brother was not muddle-headed, perhaps Qiao Ruoyun’s child would also be able to walk. It could only be said that fate was playing tricks on people.

“Sister!”Qiao ruoyi entered wearing an official uniform. When she saw Qin miaomiao, she said, “Sister Miaomiao.”

Qin Miaomiao smiled faintly and said, “Ruoyi, you look really imposing in a fifth-grade official uniform.”

Qiao ruoyi also smiled and said, “It’s all thanks to big sister for ordering the imperial court to make the official robes for the female officials of the previous dynasty look extremely good.”

Qiao jinniang smiled and said, “You don’t have to suck up to me like that.”

Ruoyi said, “I’m not sucking up to you. Qifeng’s fourth-grade official robe looks even better.

Nowadays, nothing can compare to a female official’s official robe. Even His Majesty praised Qifeng’s official robe in the morning court today.”

Ruoyi continued, “Sister, I wanted to go to Lin ‘an to offer an incense stick to Miss Xie Yun during the Qingming Festival. Unfortunately, I can’t go to Lin ‘an now.

“Thinking of this today, I wanted to ask sister to offer an incense stick, but big sister is pregnant. Can you write to glutinous rice and ask her to offer an incense stick to Xie Yun for me?”

Qiao jinniang replied calmly, “Okay.”

..

Hong Qifeng and Qiao Ruoyi’s official positions were the new ones in the Ministry of appointments. They were in charge of the affairs of the various female official departments and were usually extremely busy.

This official position also required morning court sessions every day.

As the Emperor’s birthday approached, he would rest for three days.

Only then would Hong Qifeng gather with her younger sisters.

At the gathering, her younger sisters looked at Hong Qifeng enviously:

“I heard that on the first day of Your Morning Court, His Majesty even praised your official uniform as extremely beautiful. His Majesty rarely praises women.”

Hong Qifeng smiled shyly and said, “His Majesty only praised your official uniform.”

Yue Zhu tilted her head and said, “Sister Qifeng, do you see His Majesty every day? Every time I see his majesty, I don’t dare to breathe loudly.

Last time, he severely scolded my mother in the Changle Palace. Now that I think about it, I’m still afraid!”

Hong Qifeng shook her head and said, “His Majesty is not fierce at all. He is a gentleman, gentle and elegant. His every move is extremely easy-going like a big brother. He is not scary at all.”

The Little Sisters at the side said, “I really envy that Qifeng can see Tian Yan every day, unlike us, who can only see him once in a while at a palace banquet.”

“In a few days, it will be his majesty’s first birthday after he ascends the throne. I heard that the neighboring countries will come to congratulate his majesty on his birthday. At that time, not only will we be able to see his majesty, but we will also be able to meet the envoys of the various countries.”

All the young ladies were looking forward to the arrival of His Majesty’s Birthday Banquet as soon as possible.

However, Lady Qiao had a slight headache. Although Lu Chen’s birthday this time was not his entire birthday, but his twenty-third birthday, it was his first birthday banquet after ascending the throne. It had to be grand.

The Ministry of Rites had been preparing for the birthday banquet since the beginning of spring.

However, after the new year, Fu Lu and Lady Qiao had complained. After Lady Qiao became the Empress, the palace banquet was still as terrible as before. It would be a disgrace to the taste pavilion’s Hundred Savory restaurant.

Therefore, Lady Qiao had the ambition to avenge the shame of the palace banquet at the birthday banquet.

There were still three days before the birthday banquet. Today, she tried a custom-made palace banquet.

After practicing it, she was in a mess.

Only then did she realize that although the original palace banquet was cold and tasted terrible, it was the safest and most exquisite method.

Qiao jinniang gave all the extra dishes to the palace maids and maids of the six palaces.

She carefully looked for any mistakes in this.

Seeing that she was fully focused on studying the dishes, Lu Chen took out the paper in her hand:

“Why do you care so much about Fu Lu’s words? The left and right palace banquet won’t be that bad. It’s just that it can’t compare to the delicacies of the Hundred Savory restaurant.”

Qiao jinniang said, “The palace banquet in the past is fine, but your birthday banquet will be held in a few days. Holding an outstanding longevity banquet can be considered my birthday gift to you.”

Lu Chen looked down at Qiao Jinniang and said unhappily, “The Birthday gift you gave me is getting more perfunctory year by year. What kind of birthday gift is this?”

Qiao jinniang asked, “Then what birthday gift do you want?”
