Red makeup against the world

Chapter 454
"Miss Xu family please come forward." Empress Dowager Xiao ordered Liuli.

Ever since Wu Zhengxiang appeared in the hall, Xu Wanzhen felt extremely at ease, and after being anxious for half a day, she suddenly calmed down.

Following behind Liuli, Xu Wanzhen walked towards Queen Mother Xiao.Seeing his tall back getting closer and closer, my heart became more and more calm.

"My daughter has met the queen mother." Standing beside Wu Zhengxiang, she bowed politely.

Looking at the pair of bi people in front of her, Empress Dowager Xiao smiled and was in a very good mood. "General Wu, the Ai family came to ask you. How about this lady from the Xu family who is beside you, be your wife?"

Hearing this, Wu Zhengxiang was startled, and then regained his composure. He cupped his hands respectfully and said, "Rong Mo will ask a question or two."

Empress Dowager Xiao nodded with a smile, she seems to be a good child, no wonder the emperor valued her.

With Empress Dowager Xiao's promise, Wu Zhengxiang turned sideways to Xu Wanzhen, cupped his hands and asked, "Miss Xu, do you still remember the last general? On Xiaoman's day, I hurriedly met Miss."

It wasn't the first time that he was watched so unscrupulously by him, but it was the first time that the two met in the open and above board in public.His mellow voice touched Xu Wanzhen's heartstrings, making her flushed with shame, she nodded shyly, and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito, "Of course I remember."

"Then, would you like to?"

Wu Zhengxiang was a little apprehensive when he asked the words.

Even though the two had already made up their minds, he was extremely determined in his heart.But at this moment, he was a little nervous for no reason.

Xu Wanzhen glanced at him quickly, her face turned even redder.

So many people are watching, how can anyone ask such a question?How does this make her answer?Taking a deep breath, Xu Wanzhen softly said to Empress Dowager Xiao: "The courtiers are up to the empress dowager."

Wu Zhengxiang's star-like eyes suddenly burst into light, and he said in a loud voice: "To the Empress Dowager, the general is willing!" There was an unconcealable joy in his voice.

Xu Wanzhen felt ashamed and buried her head deeply, her eyelashes trembling slightly like butterflies.

Empress Dowager Xiao looked at them, the men were heroic and the women were beautiful, they were indeed talented and beautiful!
Then he took a closer look at the expression on Wu Zhengxiang's face, his joy from the heart made him look beaming.

Empress Dowager Xiao secretly thought that the two of them had met before.Looking at the situation, maybe this Wu Zhengxiang has been interested in her for a long time, but he has not stated it.

She stretched out her hand, pulled Xu Wanzhen to her side, and asked in a low voice: "My good boy, now is not the time to be shy. Marriage is a matter of a woman's life. Seeing your grandmother's love in the past, Aijia will also take care of you."

Xu Wanzhen nodded lightly, and said, "My daughter knows."

"The Ai family asked you, how did Xiaoman meet that day?"

"That day when I was offering sacrifices to the God of Chariots at the Luoshui River, my adoptive mother specially picked me up to relax. I was afraid that I would be bored, so I asked my elder sister and third younger sister to guide me to visit various houses. At that time, my daughter-in-law was in Zhongguo. I met General Wu in the colorful shed on the mansion."

Such a meeting is really quite normal.

Empress Dowager Xiao nodded, the smile on her face seemed mischievous, and she asked in a low voice, "Then Aijia will make the decision for you?"

"But it's up to the Queen Mother to make the decision."

Seeing that she was so successful in pulling the red line for the first time, Empress Dowager Xiao was so happy that she couldn't hold her tongue from ear to ear, and said, "Good boy! The Ai family is waiting to drink your matchmaker wine!"

……

Ever since Wu Zhengxiang entered the main hall, Chen Shi had clenched his palms tightly, with a gloomy and terrifying face.

So far, she doesn't know where Wu Zhengxiang works. This feeling of being out of control makes her feel very bad.

Mrs. Chen wanted to know what the two said in front of Empress Dowager Xiao. If Wu Zhengxiang refused in person, wouldn't it be a failure?
But Empress Dowager Xiao didn't invite her to go up, so she could only stare at the movement above and speculate on the progress of the matter.

Not long after, seeing Empress Dowager Xiao smiling all over her face, she snorted coldly, and said in her heart: "This bastard is really not stupid! Seeing that Empress Dowager Xiao is going to be a matchmaker, even if there are 1000 million people who don't want to, they dare not contradict in public. He is smart! "

Then he thought again, it would be even better if he dared to contradict the Queen Mother, he would definitely be blamed and punished by the Queen Mother.

For a moment, she didn't know, should she expect him to agree, or not?
……

The two retreated from the Empress Dowager Xiao, and Madam Ding sent Mrs. Zhuang and Mrs. Chen to come forward and read out the oral order to marry them.

Empress Dowager Xiao smiled and said to them: "The two children, Aijia and Aijia, are both good. Make up the Yizhi tomorrow, and you can start planning the marriage!"

Madam Zhuang jokingly said: "Empress Dowager, feel free to be the shopkeeper. Naturally, the courtiers will worry about these trivial matters."

Empress Dowager Xiao laughed, and said: "Originally you were the matchmaker, but the Ai family stole your name and let you do things. In my heart, don't you blame the Ai family at all?"

"Being able to do things for the empress dowager, the minister's wife can't ask for it, how can there be complaints?" Mrs. Zhuang said with a smile: "It's just that this marriage is rewarded by the empress dowager. These three books and six rituals, the minister's wife can't make the decision, so I can't help but come here often Your old man."

"You can come anyway, the Ai family is not afraid of being annoyed by you." Empress Dowager Xiao said with a smile, in a very good mood.

Mrs. Chen couldn't help cursing inwardly, this Mrs. Zhuang can beat a snake with a stick.Empress Dowager Xiao seldom sees a married woman once, which is good, she actually seized this opportunity.

Xu Wan really had to wait until two years later to get rid of her clothes, and this marriage never failed for a year and a half. In the future, Mrs. Zhuang would walk around the Yanqing Palace for a very legitimate reason.If they got the blue eyes of Empress Dowager Xiao, even taking care of Duke An would be enough for them.

Empress Dowager Xiao seemed to be indifferent, but who of them didn't know how powerful she was when she was young?In addition, there is the fact that Empress Cao is so unfavorable to the emperor. If she hadn't flattered Empress Dowager Xiao, how could she be so secure as empress?

However, no matter how unhappy Chen's heart is, he can only be bored in his heart.She is in the man's family, so she can't take advantage of this incident to run to Queen Mother Xiao, right?
Mrs. Chen suffered from being dumb, and returned to the case with a gloomy complexion.

Lu Shi looked at her face, not sure about her mood.It seems that the marriage is bestowed, which is a good thing, but why does the mother-in-law look like this?After thinking about it, she still didn't open her mouth to ask, because she was afraid that if she accidentally asked about the pain, she would be angered by Mrs. Chen.

Wu Zhengxiang was waiting by the seat of Duke Zhongguo's mansion. When he saw Mrs. Chen coming back, he bowed his hands respectfully, but with a mocking expression on his face, he said in a deep voice: "There is a mother who worries about the marriage of the child. The child is lucky. Thank you very much. Pass!"

Wu Zhengxiang said this thank you with full sincerity.

Chen Shi, Lu Shi, and Wu Jiao three people, guided by the thread he laid, finally came to today.Although the thread is in his hands, can you not thank them for their cooperation?
Obviously getting what you want, you should feel at ease.But upon hearing this sentence, Chen's heart felt inexplicably cold, and she always felt that something was wrong.

Looking at his mother's face, Chen felt extremely upset, and only wanted him to disappear before her eyes.

　Wanchang's first day!
　　Tomorrow, Zhou Zhou sneered: [-] more!Hmph, can you finish watching?
