The eldest lady is both a doctor and a warrior, they love her so much

Chapter 125: Letter of Marriage

Hua Xin remembered that there was still a lot of stock in the space, so she pretended to pull out a colorful rope from her sleeve.

"Zi Qiu, help me put it on."

Nangong Ziqiu knew what to do when he heard that. He put down the chopsticks in his hand and put the colorful rope around Hua Xin's wrist, not forgetting to pull the rope to a comfortable position.

"Thank you, Zi Qiu."

Hua Xin wore a colorful rope like everyone else, and everyone had a great time during the meal.

Just when everyone was about to finish eating, someone came from the palace and said there was a reward.

Hua Xin was stunned for a moment, then thought of her position in Ye Qingyao's heart, and suddenly felt that it was normal to have a reward, so she packed up a little and went out.

The one who came to deliver the reward was Xiao Lizi, and Hua Xin was naturally familiar with him.

"Your servant Xiao Lizi greets Princess Rongyue. May the princess live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Xiao Lizi was so serious that Hua Xin had to put on airs and said quickly, "Eunuch Xiao Lizi, please stand up."

In fact, his eyes had already drifted to the palace servants behind him. Each of them was holding a gift box, and there were larger items behind them, which looked very valuable!

"Princess Rongyue, the emperor said that you can stand and accept the reward."

"My dear father, thank you very much."

That's right. It's such a shame to have to kneel down during a festival.

The person involved may not think it's a big deal, but others may think it's amazing.

Doesn’t this demonstrate the emperor’s favor towards their eldest daughter?

"The emperor awarded a hundred taels of gold, a pair of jade ruyi ornaments, a glass lamp, a set of gemstone jewelry, and two ice silk fans..."

Hua Xin's eyes almost narrowed with smile as she listened to the endless rewards. She could put all of these into the warehouse of the princess's mansion. Oh no, she should put them in her own space so that she wouldn't have to worry about losing them and it would be convenient for her to take whatever she wanted.

Xiao Lizi felt dry in the mouth after he finished speaking. Chunqin, who was standing by, gave him a reward at Hua Xin's suggestion and even kept him for a cup of tea before leaving.

After being interrupted by Ye Qingyao, going back to eat seemed boring. The reason was that Hua Xin, who loved money, couldn't wait to count the rewards.

Compared to the hustle and bustle of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the atmosphere in the palace seemed not so good.

After the palace banquet, Ye Qingyao kept Hua Yuxing as usual.

The two of them drank tea calmly in the imperial study.

"Hua Chen, take a look at this letter first."

After seemingly thinking for a long time, Ye Qingyao handed a letter to Hua Yuxing.

Hua Yuxing immediately saw the lion seal unique to the Great Chu on the envelope, glanced at Ye Qingyao, and then opened it.

After reading the letter, Hua Yuxing frowned slightly.

"A letter of request for marriage? What does the Great Chu Kingdom want to do?"

"Yes, what do they want to do? The two countries have been at peace for a long time, but this generation of the King of Chu seems to be restless!" Ye Qingyao frowned. The letter from the country arrived the day before. He originally wanted to grant Hua Xin a marriage during the Dragon Boat Festival palace banquet, but who knew that the girl was sick.

"Is this for Xin'er?"

Hua Yuxing thought about it and realized what was there to not understand. The Great Xia Kingdom had no princess. There was only a Princess Rongyue who was personally conferred by the emperor. And this Princess Rongyue was the daughter of the prime minister, so her status was not too low.

Da Chu wanted to continue to maintain peace between the two countries, so it came up with the idea of ​​proposing marriage.

As long as I can marry the princess of Daxia, I can at least maintain peace in this life.

It's a good plan, but it also depends on whether the other party is willing!

What's more, his Xin'er is already engaged.

"There is no time to lose. I think we should put the marriage of our two children on the agenda as soon as possible."

"Two children... Is the emperor referring to the Third Prince?"

"What else? Xin'er and Sheng'er have been together the longest, and I am not confident about the other princes. Since I have to choose, I will naturally choose the best."

"But if Xin'er marries the Third Prince, then the future..."

"The future? Huachen, I am still young and can fight for them. The future depends on them."

Hua Yuxing was stunned. The meaning was self-evident. It was already a clear reveal!

The future crown prince is Ye Lansheng, and the future queen is his Xin'er, but... when he thinks that there is a son of an old friend in the mansion, he is not so sure.

This, this is a bit of a headache.

Hua Yuxing didn't say anything. Ye Qingyao thought that he was shocked by his words and needed time to digest them, so he stopped talking. He took a sip of tea from time to time and looked at his old friend. As he looked at him, he started laughing again.

"Hey Huachen, do you still remember what we said when we were young?"

Ye Qingyao stopped saying "I" and started saying "I" directly.

"Remember, if you and I get married, if we both have sons, we'll be brothers, if we both have daughters, we'll be sisters, and if we both have a boy and a girl, we'll be husband and wife. But later on, I didn't expect that you would become the emperor, and that your children would all be princes. This..."

"What's the big deal? You are a high-ranking official, and your child is not bad either. What's more, what kind of status can we talk about between you and me? Now that the Great Chu State has sent a letter of marriage, I can't ignore it. I decided to choose a girl from my clan and make her a princess and send her over. But before that, Xin'er must get married, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, with the power of the Great Chu State, they might not know about it, but Xin'er won't be a marriageable girl until the end of the year, she's still too young..."

"Don't worry about that. Just treat it as Xin'er seeking a consort. You can still live in the princess's mansion."

Hua Yuxing was dumbfounded again. Why were there so many shocks today?

"The prince has become a consort, so wouldn't the Third Prince's job be too unfair to him?"

"I am the rule. Who says that a consort cannot have a job? They are all my children, so what? The Imperial Astronomical Observatory said that the auspicious day for moving is in three days. You should hurry up. The imperial edict granting marriage will be delivered on the day of moving. Sheng'er will live in the princess's mansion in the future. As for their wedding, we really can't be careless. Let's wait until Xin'er's coming of age!"

Ye Qingyao had thought of everything for Hua Yuxing. What else could he say? He could only thank them one by one. Even when he left the palace, his steps were a little heavy.

After Hua Yuxing left, there was no more sadness on Ye Qingyao's face, but more joy.

"Ruhai, don't you think I'm cheating him? The letter of marriage proposal is real, and my intention to grant them marriage is also real."

Li Ruhai, who was standing by, listened to the whole thing and naturally sided with his master.

"I think the emperor is wise. Men should get married when they are old enough and women should get married when they are old enough. It is a happy event for the two families to get married. Prime Minister Hua should be happy."

"Hahaha, look at how distressed he is. How could I not love Xin'er? I love Xin'er as much as he does. By the way, invite the Minister of Rites over. We need to plan the marriages of the two children carefully."

"Yes."

After Li Ruhai left, Ye Qingyao heaved a long sigh of relief, as if he had accomplished something great.

In fact, this is indeed a big deal.

At the same time, the Blood Dragon Guard appeared.

"Your Majesty, the news has come that something has indeed happened in Da Chu."
