Chapter 817 Advance the Marriage

Murong Jie's injury gradually healed, but Rou Yao never went to see King Nanhuai. Xiao Xiao came to pick them up back to Beijing, accompanied by General Yang.

"The Seventh Prince is being detained by Su Qing for the time being, and he hasn't been sent back to the palace yet." When Xiao Xiao arrived, he told Murong Jie about the Seventh Prince.

Murong Jie is already able to walk on the ground, this time the wound almost killed him, he himself still can't believe that he can survive.

"I will be imprisoned for a while first." Murong Jie said.

Xiao Xiao said: "It's unbelievable that an eight-year-old child can do such a cruel thing."

"It is conceivable that from childhood to adulthood, he has been fascinated by everything." Murong Jie said coldly.

He straightened his expression, "How is Beijing?"

"With the Empress Dowager here, everything is fine. However, it is probably only temporary. Those old officials naturally obey the Empress Dowager, but those officials who were promoted at a young age began to move around. Of course, these are the few people who are favored by the Emperor. Those who started to make trouble, mobilized a group of people, and planned to join the harem and not be involved in politics."

"Since Emperor Hui, there has been no rule that the harem should not be involved in politics." Murong Jie said with a frown.

"Emperor Hui didn't have it, but before Emperor Hui, there was indeed such a thing."

Murong Jie sneered, "So, are they going to bring out all the rules from Taizu's time?"

"The emperor is too paranoid." Xiao Xiao smiled, "But it's no wonder, who wants their throne to be taken away?"

"Isn't Li San'er? That's his own son." Murong Jie paused, "He originally told me to enter the palace, and he said that he was afraid that this king would seize the throne in the future, and he wanted to ensure his own throne. It was passed on to his son, didn't the ancestors let him go smoothly now? What does he want?"

"Maybe it's because he doesn't even believe the Empress Dowager, because both the late emperor and the empress dowager spoke very highly of you, and they all said that you are a talent for an emperor. In fact, the emperor also said that I said it, but, he was the prince at the time, and he said a few plain words, but in fact, there was already a thorn in his heart."

Murong Jie said angrily: "I really don't know what he wants and how to meet his wishes."

No one knows.

Before the rectification and departure, Murong Jie told the magistrate to give him a one-year probationary period, and if he failed to achieve political achievements in one year, he would be asked to go home and grow sweet potatoes.

This prefect of Qingzhou is not a greedy person, but a cowardly and timid person who bullies the good and fears the evil. When things happen, he hides and wants to grab the limelight. Murong Jie thinks that Qingzhou is still peaceful. give him a chance.

The magistrate thought that his official position was about to be lost, but when he heard Murong Jie say it, he couldn't believe his ears, knelt down and kowtowed, swearing to the sky what would happen in the future, until Murong Jie and Zi'an got into the carriage, He still knelt there and spoke vigorously, crying while speaking.

It has to be said that after going through this incident, this old magistrate really did a lot of practical things, and was later promoted to Beijing, which is considered a late bloomer.

This is something for later, don't mention it.

Let's say that when the group set off to return to Beijing, King Nanhuai was not trapped in a cage, but bought another carriage to tie him up tightly. General Yang was in the same carriage as him and was responsible for keeping an eye on him.

Wu Yanzu was obsessed with life and death to follow Zi'an. He was like brown sugar, and he couldn't shake it off. He didn't take him on the road. Lingli gave him three taels of silver to thank him for curing the princess. As a result, he had the silver and bought it himself. A donkey followed at a distance.

The waterway was dangerous, so they finally chose to go back by land.

In fact, whether it is dangerous or not is not within the scope of Murong Jie's consideration, but the waterway is fast, he wants to delay a little time, whether it is in Qingzhou or on the road, it is better than returning to Beijing.

Along the way, because of the large number of people, it was also lively.

In the evening, I stayed in a small town in Liangzhou. Qin Zhou ordered the store to prepare a sumptuous dinner. Everyone had a tacit understanding and didn't mention anything in Beijing, just not wanting to disturb everyone's mood. After all, the journey , everyone's emotions are very high.

It was only learned during the banquet that the marriage between Zhuang Zhuang and Xiao Xiao had been brought forward, to October.

"Why is that?" Zian asked.

Xiao Xiao took a look at Zhuang Zhuang, the light was soft, and there was affection and sadness in his eyes, "My grandmother is very old, she fell a few days ago, and I invited an imperial doctor to come in for treatment, saying that the old man is afraid that this is the case. It's been a few months, so I have to advance the marriage first, so that my grandmother can see us get married."

The grandchildren also have to observe filial piety. If the grandmother is still alive and does not get married, once the grandmother passes away, he must observe filial piety, at least for a year.

"Wouldn't it be that I have more than a month left to prepare? Is it too late?" Zian asked.

"It's just that I turned over some people in a hurry, so I can make it in time." Xiao Xiao said.

Zian glanced at Murong Jie, "It seems that we should go by water, faster."

Zhuang Zhuang quickly said: "No, it's better to go by land, don't take water."

Zi An wondered: "Why is that? You bride, don't you worry about your own marriage? Although someone will help you, you have to take care of it yourself."

Rou Yao laughed and said: "That's because after they go back, they won't be able to meet each other. Before getting married, according to the rules, new couples are not allowed to meet in private. Besides, it would be nice to travel around the mountains and rivers all the way back, so that the young couple can still love each other. "

Zhuang Zhuang blushed and said angrily: "You little hoof, talk nonsense, see if I don't tear your mouth apart."

"That won't work!" A Jing, who was hardworking at the side, raised his head after hearing Zhuang Zhuang's words, and said in a low voice, "Whoever dares to tear her mouth, I, A Jing, will be the first to spare her."

Zhuang Zhuang laughed so hard that he almost fell down, "Okay, Ah Jing, knowing that you have a deep love for Rou Yao, put away your fists, with you here, who would dare to tear her mouth open?"

But Rou Yao also blushed, and cast a glance at Ah Jing, "What do you, a big man, say when a woman talks?"

Ah Jing said solemnly: "The others don't need to interrupt, but if someone bullies you, I don't care if it's true or not."

These words really sprinkled a wave of dog food, Rou Yao's face became hotter and hotter, seeing everyone looking at her jokingly, she quickly said: "Okay, shut up!"

Ah Jing is a person who listens to his wife, so he puts his head down and eats hard.

Qin Zhou was holding a wine glass in his hand and slowly dangling it, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, "It's really a happy day."

Qin Zhou is still dressed as a man, with a tall figure wrapped in a plain white brocade dress with dark cloud patterns, his facial features are very heroic, but now shrouded in lights, his eyebrows are somewhat picturesque, his toughness is restrained, and his lines are soft , holding a wine glass in his hand, a little more chic, but his brows and eyes are smudged with a little sadness and leisure. If a man is afraid, he won't know how many daughters he will fall in love with.

When everyone looked over, she smiled, wiped away the sadness in her eyes, and smiled, "Isn't it? It's good to be in a pair."
