The regent walks with wind after his wedding

Chapter 261 The Emperor Decrees a Marriage!

Everyone's curiosity was aroused, and they asked one after another: "Miss Chu, is there any great event for the Right Prime Minister's Mansion?"

"Could it be... which young lady did Young Master Xiao take a fancy to?" One person said with a smile, "Miss Xiao, you don't even know about such a big deal?"

Xiao Yuxuan glanced at Mo Li, a little confused.

Chu Qian's haughty tone was tinged with sourness: "Master Xiao is much more blessed than my elder brother, but the emperor personally ordered the marriage!"

Mo Li looked at Xiao Yuxuan in astonishment, and Xiao Yuxuan also looked shocked!Could it be that father heard that Mo Li was unwilling last night, but this morning he actually asked the emperor for a marriage?But forcing others is not like my father's usual style...

Gao Wei started to gossip, and hurriedly asked: "Miss Chu, which lady did the emperor bestow on you?"

"Yeah, which lady is it?
Master Xiao is a talented young man with both civil and military skills, young and promising, he can be regarded as the most outstanding among the officials and young masters.Besides, Young Master Xiao is a good person, he respects the old, supports the young, and loves the common people. Who is so lucky that he can not only marry into the right minister's mansion, but also get a marriage from the emperor? "

It is an extremely honorable thing to be granted a marriage by the emperor's decree, how many people in the world would be envied!
"Could it be..." Gao Wei glanced at Mo Li and suddenly had some thoughts.Mo Li and Xiao Yuxuan have such a good relationship, and they often go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, so naturally they can often see Xiao Yifei.

She couldn't help looking at her jealously, why did Mo Li have such a good life after entering the capital?Winning two first prizes in the competitions of the three major colleges, receiving the attention and rewards of the Prince Regent, even the marriage with Chu Jian was inexplicably replaced by Mo Yunmei, if she can marry into the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and be favored by Xiao Yifei, it will be really... ...to make it difficult for her to accept!
Mo Li is a country bumpkin, why should she?
Feng Jiayin also looked at Mo Li with a bad feeling.

Chu Qian heard that Gao Wei only spoke half of what she said, followed her gaze to see Mo Li, immediately knew what she was thinking, and sneered contemptuously: "Gao Wei, what are you thinking? Mo Li is just the daughter of a servant. The daughter of Shang Shu may not be able to fall into the eyes of Xiao Youxiang, just rely on her?"

Immediately someone echoed: "Yes, Mo's Mansion has already married with the Left Prime Minister's Mansion, if we marry with the Right Prime Minister's Mansion again, wouldn't all the good things in the world be taken over by Mo's Mansion?"

Gao Wei suddenly realized, and patted her head: "Oh, why didn't I think of that just now." She breathed a sigh of relief, it would have been better if it hadn't been a country bumpkin like Mo Li, otherwise it would really make her, a serious official lady, feel unbalanced .

When she breathed a sigh of relief, Mo Li also breathed a sigh of relief.If the emperor really ordered a marriage for Xiao Yifei and her, it would be really troublesome to deal with.

However, Xiao Yuxuan's expression was not at all relaxed.If it wasn't Mo Li, who would it be?Eldest brother obviously likes Mo Li, yet the emperor suddenly bestows marriage on elder brother to another woman?What is the character of that woman, is she easy to get along with?

Based on her impression, she felt that no young lady in Beijing was as good as Mo Li, and no one was good enough for her elder brother except Mo Li.

The expression on Feng Jiayin's face also relaxed: "Shangshu's daughter may not be able to catch the eyes of the right minister. Miss Chu means..."

"Haven't you guessed it yet?" Chu Qian reminded with an arrogant expression of "you are too stupid", "You didn't realize that someone didn't come today?"

After her pointing, everyone quickly looked around.

Gao Wei was stunned: "Miss Zhen didn't come, could it be..." Today is the announcement of the candidates for the competition. At such an important moment, Zhen Jing's dance and calligraphy are excellent, but she has not arrived...

Chu Qian nodded, not happy or proud that someone finally guessed the answer.Zhen Jing is the granddaughter of General Zhen, who has made great military exploits, and she is very fond of him.Old General Zhen respected even the emperor. Although he no longer serves in the court, his prestige in the court is still there.

The marriage between the Right Prime Minister's Mansion and the Zhen Mansion will undoubtedly greatly increase the power. The Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, which was originally evenly matched with the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, will compete with the Right Prime Minister's Mansion?My father was worried, whether this marriage was intentional by the emperor to suppress the power of Zuo Xiangfu...

Chu Qian secretly clenched her fists. Now if the Zuoxiangfu wanted to surpass the Rightxiangfu, she had to marry her into the Prince Regent's residence.The king regent is powerful, and the emperor obeys him. In front of the king regent, what is Old General Zhen, a foreign minister!
When everyone saw Chu Qian nodding, they were shocked!
"I never expected it to be Miss Zhen Jingzhen!"

Zhen Jing has always been a loner, her arrogant personality is never afraid of offending others, she dares to say anything, and she is usually stronger than Chu Qian.She and Xiao Yifei are really...

Incredible!

Although Xiao Yifei is kind and courteous to everyone, he has a strong inner character, otherwise he would not have served in the Ministry of Criminal Justice at a young age.

With two such strong people, can Xiao Yifei tolerate Zhen Jing's rudeness and arrogance?
Xiao Yuxuan came back to her senses, her face changed drastically, she turned her head and left.

"Eh? Yuxuan!" Mo Li called out to her.

Xiao Yuxuan didn't turn her head back, she hurriedly said: "I'm going back home, if you need anything, please let me know!"

"Hahaha..." An abrupt laugh came from Feng Jiayin, "Look at Miss Xiao's face, it seems that she doesn't approve of this marriage!"

Gao Wei echoed: "It's no use whether she approves or not. This is the emperor's personal decree to grant the marriage. If you resist the decree, if you don't go too far, you will be executed."

Mo Li frowned, and then heard another person say: "It's no wonder that Miss Xiao is unwilling. If Miss Zhen becomes your sister-in-law, would you be willing?"

Everyone was silent.Although the power behind Zhen Jing made them envious and wanted to win Zhen Jing over, if they really wanted to live under the same roof as Zhen Jing, with Zhen Jing's stinging and merciless character, who could bear it?

However, he was still afraid of the old General Zhen who was behind Zhen Jing, so he didn't dare to refute her words.

Mo Li looked at everyone's expressions and frowned.She doesn't know Zhen Jing very well, and usually she doesn't pay much attention to what others say and do, but judging from everyone's expressions, she knows that Zhen Jing is very difficult to get along with.Reminiscent of Xiao Yuxuan's pale face with deep frowns when she left...

Why did the emperor suddenly give Xiao Yifei a marriage, just after Xiao Youxiang asked the matchmaker to go to Mo's mansion, is this just a coincidence?Could it be that Zhen Jing had been in love with Xiao Yifei for a long time and had heard some rumors, so she begged Old General Zhen to go to the palace to ask the emperor to marry him?
"Here comes the master!"

Everyone covered up the gossip in their hearts and returned to their seats.

The head of the official academy came in with several gentlemen: "This competition includes embroidery, dance, musical instruments, Go, calligraphy and painting, etc. The difference from previous competitions is that the contestants draw lots to determine the competition items."

"Draw lots?" There was a chatter among the people below.

The manager said: "Quiet! Yes, it's a lottery, so whether you can win the game depends on God's will.

If you are good at musical instruments, but you just get Go or dance, then no one can help you, it's all just luck. "
