Chapter 283, One-year wedding leave

Jing Shirong came into the palace in the middle of the night to meet the emperor, and the emperor felt strange.

 Asked him, "Is there something urgent?" Why did he come here in the middle of the night?

Jing Shirong responded tactfully, "Your Majesty, it's not an urgent matter. It's a personal matter of a minor minister. I want to tell you about it."

When the emperor heard that it was a private matter, he asked curiously, "Oh?"

Jing Shirong thought for a while and said politely, "Your Majesty, that's how it is. When Wei Chen was catching corrupt officials in Jiangnan, he happened to meet his neighbor many years ago, so he went over to visit."

"The neighbor's girl was very cute. I liked her very much, so I thought about taking my parents to the south of the Yangtze River to propose marriage."

When the emperor heard this, he raised his eyebrows lightly and said in a dangerous tone, "Oh? Meeting a neighbor by chance? Then why didn't you report to me before?"

The emperor was very suspicious, and he was most afraid of his ministers hiding things from him in private. Especially since Jing Shirong was still his right-hand man, he naturally couldn't bear to have Jing Shirong hide something from him.

Jing Shirong was glared at by his dragon eyes. He was not afraid at all. The old **** was there to explain.

“Originally, it was an accidental encounter in the midst of a busy schedule. It was not a big deal. At that time, the minister was busy investigating the case and had no time to reminisce about the past.”

“I happened to meet her again after finishing my work last year. I saw that the little girl was very cute and I liked her, so I went over to reminisce about old times.”

His explanation was the same as what the spies reported back and forth, so the emperor didn't get angry.

 In fact, when the spies came back to report, the emperor was wondering whether Jing Shirong would come to tell him about this.

 At first, the emperor was quite upset when Jing Shirong didn't come.

Feeling that he has started to hide things from himself before he becomes a powerful official.

 But then he thought about it, these are indeed trivial matters, and they are also people's private matters. If he asked, he would look like a talkative woman.

  Unexpectedly, Jing Shirong would take the initiative to come over and mention this matter to him in the evening, which made the emperor very happy.

 “You like that little girl that much?”

Jing Shirong nodded, "I like it."

He doesn’t say much, and he doesn’t describe much. He just likes it and expresses what he means.

The emperor saw that he only said this sentence and wanted to refute a few words, but he couldn't find a point to refute, so he could only find faults in the eggs.

“There are so many ladies in the capital, how can they not compare to a little girl? Is it worth it for your parents to go to Jiangnan to propose marriage in person?”

Jing Shirong said to her heart, "How good my sister Ying is in my heart, of course she is worth it."

But of course he would not say this out loud, and only gave the official official reply to the emperor, "Since you are marrying a wife, be more formal so as not to offend others."

He didn't want to say more about the rest. The emperor could think whatever he wanted.

 You can’t extend your hands into his family affairs.

Seeing that he was still so cold, the emperor didn't really think what to do, so he asked tentatively, "Do you want me to issue a marriage decree for you?"

Yu Ci's marriage must be a little more honorable. Jing Shirong didn't want to be so public about it. After all, he was just an idle young man with no official position in front of outsiders, so it was better not to be so public about it.

He then reported back to the emperor, "Since my status is inconvenient now, I should keep a low profile."

There is not enough stability inside and outside the court now, and the emperor still needs to send him to do many things, which are not high-profile things yet.

 In addition, being high-profile will not do much good for the Liang family. Instead, it will cause them trouble. It is better to keep a low profile.

 The emperor knew this was the reason, so he stopped making excuses.

"Okay, then you can do this as soon as possible. I will give you a year's leave, and you can get married as soon as possible."

It happened that he wanted to take advantage of Jing Shirong's unavailable time to support the Zhao and Zhou families, which was a coincidence.

Jing Shirong was naturally happy to have a holiday. As for the emperor's thoughts, he didn't care.

 “My lord, thank you for your kindness.”

Since he had a holiday, he couldn't wait to go to Jiangnan to propose marriage to Sister Ying. Jing Shirong went home and told his parents about the matter. After hearing this, the Jings and his wife breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the emperor had no objection.

"Now that everything is settled, your father, your grandmother, I, and I will go to Jiangnan with you tomorrow to propose marriage."

Jing Shirong had been busy all day, and it was only at this moment that he truly smiled.

 “Okay, thank you, mother.”

Seeing that he was happy, Mrs. Jing also laughed.

 “Then you go to bed early and set off tomorrow morning.”

Jing Shirong hummed, and when he was about to go back to his room, he turned back, lowered his head and leaned on Jing's shoulder, and then went back to his room.

Jing Shi smiled fondly when she saw that he still loved her as much as he did when he was a child.

 The nanny next to her also laughed when she saw her like this.

 “The eldest young master is still the same good boy as he was when he was a child.”

Jing's face was full of joy, "Who says it's not the case?"

"Let's go back to the house and pack things. I started preparing a wedding list for him a few years ago, and now it's useful."

As long as someone feels sorry for Brother Rong after he gets married, Jing will be happier than anyone else.

 On the second day.

Jing got up early and asked his servants to pack things and carry them to the car. He also asked someone to wake Mrs. Jing up.

Jing’s father also got up early in the morning, but he didn’t have time off to go down to the south of the Yangtze River with Jing Shirong and others, and had to continue going to court.

Jing Shirong did not embarrass his father and asked him, "Dad, please take good care of the house at home. We will be back as soon as possible."

Jing’s father hummed and told them, “Be careful along the way.”

Jing Shirong said yes and set off with Mrs. Jing and Mrs. Jing.

 While on the road, Jingshi chatted with Jing Shirong.

"You said, this time I go to Jiangnan to propose marriage, when can I welcome the bride?"

It has been more than half a year since this trip. If the date can be set earlier, the bride can go back to Beijing with them.

 The provincial government came once to propose marriage and then to welcome the bride, which was really overwhelming.

Jing Shirong also thought about this problem and said, "You should discuss this matter with Uncle Liang and Aunt Liang first. Your son only has one year of marriage leave. If possible, we can wait in Jiangnan for a month or two before welcoming the bride. "

 Let's go back to Beijing together at that time, otherwise he is afraid that he will be called by the emperor to do something at short notice, and Sister Ying will have to be alone on the way.

Getting married was a big day, and Jing Shirong didn’t want to leave Sister Ying to face it alone, so he wondered if he could take her back directly within this year?

Even if he has to run errands somewhere later, he can take Sister Ying with him.

Jing thought the same thing and said, "Okay, I'll discuss this with your Aunt Liang and see what they say."

Since the emperor has given her a year off, Sister Ying will be able to get married next year as well.

If the in-laws feel that the child is still young, they can let them get married first, or wait a year before the wedding.

When Mrs. Jing heard this, she said, "You are just too pretentious. We didn't have so many worries at that time. We just got married. It's rare to be so tolerant to a new daughter-in-law."

Jingshi retorted, "That's what I said, but I didn't realize how wronged you were back then."

 Some elderly people have double standards and always say that young people are pretentious, but in their day, they may not feel that much wronged.

It's just talk, and the elders love to talk about how wronged they are and exaggerate, but who knows the truth.
