Wishful Things

Xu Mingyi knew that this decision was not only Xindi's idea, but also his grandfather's choice.

To be precise, it was the result of discussions between the two parties.

It was indeed grandfather's intention to leave the capital, but it was His Majesty's decision to choose Dongyang as the fief.

Grandfather has always thought about the long term, and he has not been dazzled by the importance of honor and favor that has only just begun. His majesty is certainly not like the abolished emperor, but what the Xu family is looking for at the moment is long-term.

Rather than take chances, it is better to pave the way early from the beginning.

Being far away from the capital, everything can be more comfortable.

And granting the land to Dongyang is the trust and sincerity of His Majesty.

Therefore, even if His Majesty promised not to reduce military power, and after the Xu family has established a solid foundation in Dongyang, he will definitely not make any move to support the troops.

The king knows the minister, and the minister knows the king.

The king is concerned for his ministers, and the ministers should also be concerned for the king.

In Xu Mingyi's opinion, this couldn't be better.

With a relaxed and contented face, she held a cup of tea in her hand and slowly sipped it, only to hear her friend's voice sounding next to her again——

"...Now my family, Xu Zhaozhao, has become a great hero that everyone respects and turned the tide, and even my face has been honored a lot." Princess Yufeng said slowly, leaning on the couch, with a look on his face. And the color of glory.

After hearing this, Xu Mingyi smiled and said: "Actually, you have contributed a lot, so I have half of the credit for you... If you like the rewards, just take them back with you. "

The reason why Jiaojiao said this was because it was issued together with the imperial decree to reward Xu's family, and there was another decree specially used to praise her.

This is something she never thought of.

She is also from the Xu family, so there is no need to reward her specially, let alone this way of telling the world.

As soon as the imperial decree comes out, it is bound to be recorded in the annals of history.

On the well-known imperial decree, she detailed her so-called credits, including the fact that she ventured into Beijing alone.

In addition to stating the facts, there were also many praises, which she even felt a little exaggerated and distorted, so when they met at Xuesheng Tea House, she couldn't help asking Wu Chao—is it really her that the edict said?

Unexpectedly, the other party answered her very seriously: the praise is not as good as the truth.

She couldn't help being silent on the spot, well, this is really the right person to ask...

Therefore, because of this matter, she has really gained a lot of limelight in the capital for the past two days.

And I heard from Ah Kui yesterday that Shou Ming is already preparing to write her deeds into a book!

Is this really going to make her immortal after death?

She was very surprised and said that this was not the case.

But she heard that Shouming was very persistent, and she had made a lot of preparations in advance, so she couldn't bear to dampen the other party's enthusiasm, so she had to confess that if she really wanted to write, remember to include her appearance as well, not because of Her merits overlooked her beauty. If it is necessary to insert a portrait, she can also cooperate.

For this reason, Shou Mingte invited Ah Kui to do homework at the Xuesheng Tea House, claiming that it was for more realism.

But Xu Mingyi always felt that the other party seemed to want to take this opportunity to kidnap her little girl.

"I'm not going to steal your things." Princess Yufeng sighed with some resentment, and said, "All of you are going back to Dongyang, what's the use of me guarding these rewards alone. Dongyang It is thousands of miles away from the capital, so it may be difficult to see him in the future."

Xu Mingyi gave her a strange look.

What are you talking about?

The other party acted very much, leaning on the couch together, he leaned over and hugged her arm, and looked at her with extremely reluctant eyes, discussing: "Otherwise...you take me Let's go back to Dongyang City together?"

As he spoke, his true form appeared in a few sentences: "I heard that most of the men in Dongyang City are tall, handsome, and very masculine... You used to go back to Dongyang to worship ancestors, so you must have seen it before. I wonder if this rumor is true or not?" Just looking at General Xu and the two masters of the Xu family, it seems quite credible.

Xu Mingyi immediately became alert: "The people of Dongyang are simple by nature, but they cannot withstand your harm..."

Princess Yufeng dissatisfied: "Why is it a disaster, they all say that I am a female Bodhisattva who saves suffering!"

She has given such a young man a warm home, isn't she a female Bodhisattva?

Everyone is doing their best to save all sentient beings, there should be no distinction between high and low.

Xu Mingyi was quite convinced when he heard it, and said: "If the female Bodhisattva wants to go to Dongyang to do good deeds, then go."

Princess Yufeng squinted at her: "What? You can't take me with you anyway? Are you afraid that I will embarrass you?"

"I may not be able to go back to Dongyang for a long time." Xu Mingyi also squinted at her: "When you mention the young man in your mind, can you pretend to be something else?"

"..." Princess Yufeng suddenly came over and patted his forehead: "I forgot, you have to stay and be my younger brother and sister!"

After all, Wu Kankan has now become Xie Kankan!

After speaking, he turned around in the couch and sat facing Xu Mingyi, with the hand on the inside propping his head at a slant, and said with a smile: "Come on, first call sis to listen."

Seeing that Xu Mingyi didn't buy it at all, he complained again: "When I was in Shoukang Palace that day, I asked your family Wu Chao to call me sister, but he refused to talk to me. You have to manage it well and set an example!"

Xu Mingyi couldn't help laughing.

Just because of Xie Jiaojiao's lack of a regular appearance, it's too late for him to hide, if you really need to pay attention to it, that's a strange thing.

Thinking of this, she looked up and down at her friend beside her, and asked seriously: "It's not impossible to change your mouth, but, do you have any money for changing your mouth today?"

"Change your money..." Princess Yufeng put away the hand that was leaning on her temple, straightened her body, and stretched out her hand to Xu Mingyi: "Look, here it is!"

As he said that, his hands suddenly scratched at the girl's waist.

The two laughed and made a fuss in the couch.

The girl's laughter was as clear and loud as a bell, passing through the window lattice to the ears of the maid in the hallway, and blending into the early summer breeze with the fragrance of jasmine.

...

Soon it will be the eighth day of June.

On this day, the sky was blue and cloudless.

The solemn and solemn Taimiao stands under the blue sky, looking more and more sacred and inviolable.

Emperor Zhaozhen and the eldest son of the emperor, accompanied by all the officials, went out of Chengtianmen, crossed the Yuhe River, entered the middle gate, and came all the way to the front of the main hall.

Amidst the fragrant mist, the minister's reading was clear and powerful.

After today, standing in front of the world will be the eldest son of the emperor, Xie Wuyang.

This name was personally decided by the emperor, and it retains the traces of the young man in the past, as well as the hard work and heart that the Wu family has put into it for many years.

Xie Wuyang came back, but Wu Chao was still there.

Amidst the ritual and music, King Dingnan, who stood at the head of all the officials, looked at the young man who accompanied Emperor Zhaozhen to offer incense.

The young man between the young and the young is tall and upright, wearing black clothes, seven crowns, dragons embroidered with gold thread on the shoulders, three chapters painted on the sleeves, and four chapters painted on the clothes, a total of seven chapters , This is the rule of the prince.

Watching the young man insert the green incense into the incense burner, many old scenes flashed before Dingnan King's eyes, and he lost his mind in a rare way.

Xu Qiwei, the King of Dongyang who was at the side, turned his head to look at him with a little observation, and was surprised to see that his eyes were slightly red.

It was the first time he had seen the stubborn red eyes.

Although he has been a deadly enemy for many years, at this moment, Mr. Xu has no intention of taking the opportunity to ridicule him.

They are all elders, fathers, and grandfathers.

This old stubborn is probably thinking of his daughter who died young, right?

Old stubborn loves the eldest daughter the most, even he knows this.

Thinking of this, Xu Qiwei sighed in his heart, stretched out his hand and patted Dingnan Wang's shoulder comfortingly.

This move immediately attracted countless gazes.

Originally, he was the only one who noticed that King Dingnan's eyes were red, but now...

Facing those probing gazes, King Dingnan withdrew his emotions, and his face froze immediately.

He seriously suspected that the old man did it on purpose!

...

The completion of the ancestor worship ceremony in the Taimiao is equivalent to an official announcement to the world, and Wu Chao's identity has been recognized in front of the world-now he should be called Xie Wuyang.

Worshiping ancestors is a matter for the royal family and ministers, even if Xu Mingyi wanted to witness this scene with his own eyes, he couldn't.

But when the old man came back in the evening, he specially told her in detail.

Especially focusing on the matter where King Dingnan shed tears on the spot——

At that time, it was true that there was no meaning of ridicule, but now that it is mentioned, it is not necessarily the case.

Seeing how his old man spoke vividly, Xu Yun gave a vague reminder from the sidelines - it is not the time to get carried away, but he must know that his daughter-in-law has not really been obtained, and one day before a major event is accomplished, one day must not be taken lightly.

The old man gave him a look of "I know what's in my heart", didn't bother to pay attention to the worthless second son, and then talked about today's sacrifice to the Taimiao.

"Just now we talked about offering sacrifices to the prince. There are auspicious clouds appearing over the Taimiao, which is really auspicious omen!"

Xu Mingyi was surprised to hear that.

How can I hear the feeling of storytelling?

But a good omen is always a good thing. Everyone likes auspicious omens, especially when the overall situation is initially determined, the word auspicious omens is very suitable to comfort people's hearts.

I have to say that this auspicious cloud is really quite sensible.

The whole family was talking in the study room, but Xu Mingshi never spoke.

After everyone left the study one after another, the valet beside him couldn't help asking softly, "Your Master, do you have something on your mind?"

Xu Mingshi was taken aback for a moment, and looked at the boy with unexpected eyes - how did you see it, is it so obvious?

The boy smiled complicatedly.

Just now when the young master was drinking tea in the study, the lid of the tea was not lifted, and he put it to his mouth... Who can't see this?

The young master can't hide what's on his mind the most, but he always thinks that he hides it well.

Xu Mingshi really couldn't hide what was on his mind, let alone hold back his words.

After thinking about it for a while, he quickly caught up with Xu Mingyi who was going back to Xiyuan.

"etc!"

Hearing this voice, Xu Mingyi felt a headache and stopped helplessly.

After all, she was walking too slowly.

Earlier, she had a faint feeling that the housekeeper wanted to tell her something, but if she opened her mouth, she would not be able to finish it in a few words, and would definitely have a lot of nagging... She was still in a hurry to go back and read the manuscript that Ah Kui brought back from Xuesheng Teahouse today Ben!

Unexpectedly, he still couldn't escape.

"I have something very important to ask you." In the darkness, the boy came over and stopped her, with a solemn look in his eyes.

As soon as the words "very important" came out, it directly cut off the possibility of Xu Mingyi finding an excuse to talk about it another day.

"Ask." Xu Mingyi looked at him resignedly.

"Stay back." Xu Mingshi looked at Ah Zhu and the boy.

Ah Zhu didn't move, she looked at Xu Mingyi.

Xu Mingshi's servant also subconsciously looked at the girl—without it, the lewd prestige has been going on for a long time, and it must be eradicated immediately.

Xu Mingyi nodded, motioning for them to back down.

"You...do you still want to marry Wu Chao now?" the boy asked directly.

After asking, I wanted to change my words, but I didn't bother to change it anymore, anyway, I was alone anyway.

He asked directly, and Xu Mingyi answered directly: "Why don't you want to."

Firstly, she didn't feel tired of watching it, and secondly, Wu Chao hadn't done anything wrong, so why would she have any reason to change her mind, and suddenly don't want him?

"He is the prince now, and he will be the prince in the future, and even—" Xu Mingshi paused, with a complicated tone: "Even so, do you still want to marry?"

Xu Mingyi asked again: "Why not?"

Seeing her life and death "unrepentant" and completely unaware of the key to the problem, Xu Mingshi became a little anxious: "Three palaces and six courtyards, there are countless concubines! Once you enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea, and from then on you can only be a bird in a cage, with your hands tied. , no more freedom! Even if you want to eat ice powder from Zhuangyuan Building, it is difficult!"

Just by talking about it, he felt that she was too wronged!

can this work?

Xu Mingyi: "It's not easy to want to eat ice powder? I can just call the master who makes ice powder from the Zhuangyuan Building to the palace in the mansion, and make it for me alone."

She has become a princess, so she can't eat whatever she wants?

She spoke so confidently that Xu Mingshi choked when he heard it—call him into the palace and let her do it alone?

Then what does he eat!

The boy never thought that the last moment he was worried that she would not be able to eat, but now he was worried that he would not be able to eat.

But that's not the point...

Is the focus on food?

He just wanted to express that she would lose her freedom—

Seeing that he wanted to explain, Xu Mingyi spoke in front of him, and said with a smile: "I understand what you mean, but everything is like this ice powder to me. The rules are dead, as long as I don't fight with myself Embarrassing, the rules naturally can't embarrass me. Don't you know what kind of person your sister is? Am I the kind of person who will wrong myself? "

This is also...

Xu Mingshi was silent for a while, and then said: "Even so, not everything is like this bowl of ice powder, you can make decisions as much as you want, I'm afraid it's too much to do..."

Just like what he just said about concubines in the harem——

Yes, not to mention being bullied, relying on her family background, temper and good strength, it's fine not to bully others...

But if you don't get bullied on the surface, will you really not feel wronged?

She could have never had to deal with these horrible things.

Thinking that when Wu Chao was only a grandson of the Wu family, he was more optimistic about this marriage, but who would have thought that a good grandson of the Wu family would suddenly become some kind of prince!

It's really hard to guard against!

Grandchildren don't need to take concubines, but can the prince—the crown prince—the king of a country do it?
