Chapter 586 Princess Guangling
"Mizhen's marriage?" Madam Ji paused for an instant and said tentatively after a short deliberation, "As I heard, Princess Gaomi has assented to his proposal."
She was aware that Old Madam Qin hardly said no to Princess Gaomi, about whom Old Madam Qin had developed a guilt complex.
Though Rong Shuihe's rejecting Zhao Taozhuang and proposing to Sheng Weiqiao had mortified the Zhao Family, Old Madam Qin was unlikely to object to that so long as Princess Gaomi persisted in letting Mizhen deal with his marriage by himself.
And more importantly, the Princess Gaomi that Madam Ji used to know wouldn't turn down her son's request just because of her mother's wishes.
"Why do you think I tried to pair off Taoxuan with Mizhen at the beginning?" Old Madam Qin asked expressionlessly, "I didn't lie when I talked with Ziye, but I didn't let her know my true intentions, either."
Old Madam Qin added in an aloof tone, "Neverthele

"Uncle Feng, Aunt Zhan, Elder Sister, and Brother Xinzhang." Said Sheng Weiqiao. Their journey to Chang'an was not very smooth. They encountered an unpredictable storm on their way. When the storm came, their towered ships were at the deep sea far away from the land. Therefore, when the sailors noticed that something was wrong, it had been too late for them to find a port for shelter.Fortunately, the three families were all wealthy. They always used the best towered ships and sailors for their family members' journey, which enabled them to survive the roaring waves. However, since their ships were damaged, they had to find a place to have them fixed before continuing their journey.When they came to fix the ship, they would almost have changed to go by land if it had not been for that Senior Master Feng and Old Madam Zhan were advanced in age and could not bear the jolt.Even so, they often drank soups to soothe their nerves in the foll

Princess Gaomi feared that he would kill someone who had gossiped about Sheng Weiqiao, so she didn't directly answer him, "The news is indeed true. Shuihe, don't you know it?""There was a Dragon Boat Festival feast in the Shanglin Palace. At that time, you were shocked that I had gotten hurt. When you came back home, you became so angry for days." said Rong Shuihe. Princess Gaomi didn't respond to him, so his eyes got colder. He didn't ask more but whispered, "I heard that it was because Gaomi King and Princess Qingfang had told a lie to you. So if you want to know Kangzhao’s true nature, you must dispatch your trusted subordinates to investigate her in Nanfeng County, right?"He stopped his speculation and then directly turned around to ask Gongsun Yingdun standing outside the room, "Can you find out the one whom Princess Gaomi has sent to Nanfeng County and what has happened there within half a day?"Licking his lips, Gongsun Yingdun

Gaomi King had to do so because Rong Shuihe kept him on his toes after Gaomi King failed to kill him on his way back home from Daimao Island.Moreover, when Rong Shuihe became the Number One Scholar and then returned to Gaomi King Family, some followers led by Gaomi King hoped that he would be a great young master to defeat the powerful Meng Family so that they would be inspired. Therefore, there were many private discussions on supporting him.As strong supporters of Gaomi King, the Yuan Family and the Zhao Family had relations by marriage with Gaomi King Family. Especially Zhao Shi from the Zhao Family, Princess Gaomi’s brother, was responsible for training guards for him. They all thought highly of Rong Shuihe, so Gaomi King had to worry about Rong Qingzhuo, to whom he wanted to pass his position.After the plan of preventing Rong Shuihe from returning to Nanfeng County to govern the Gongsun Family on the Daimao Island failed, Gaomi K

After hearing Gaomi King’s words, Sheng Weiqiao's seniors looked at each other and became silent.Senior Master Feng coughed to break the temporary quietness. He said, "It's honored to have Your Highness come over here to make an explanation in person. However, Princess Gaomi might take it wrong. Weiqiao is our most favored child. We cannot make up our minds about her marriage simply with your words. We indeed come to Chang'an to find her a nice husband. However, it doesn't mean we decide to agree with the marriage between Weiqiao and Prince Mizhen. After all, our limited properties are far less than those of the powerful families in Chang'an.""We have spoiled Weiqiao. Being a wealthy and mighty family, Gaomi King Family must have strict rules, which might not be suitable for Weiqiao since she has always been careless and sloppy.""Your Highness, please make it clear to Princess Gaomi in case that she might have misunderstandings of the

"Mixue!" Gaomi King touched Princess Gaomi gently and whispered, "Our child finally came back after so many years. He hardly asks any favor of us, and we promised that we would gratify his wish... If you keep acting this way, he'll hate us!"Worrying that Princess Gaomi wouldn't listen to him, he lowered his voice, "Shuihe has been hobnobbing with Shu Sisters recently. And he'll move into his own mansion after he gets married. You don't want him to sever the bond with us by then, do you?!"His words persuaded Princess Gaomi. She gave a bitter laugh and braced up to make apologies, "My brooding over my lost Shuihe in the past ten-odd years has enfeebled my body. I recovered somewhat with the joy over Shuihe's big event, but I guess it will take me longer to fully recuperate from the depression. I don't mean to make light of you if I look glum or something else. I'm just too debilitated. I beg your pardon!"The Sheng Family didn’t believe

"You won't pay less than one million taels of silver, will you?!" Gaomi King remained silent, and Princess Gaomi also realized that they couldn't afford an amount more than her third daughter-in-law's dowry as she recalled that astronomical number. She compromised after pondering for a while, "The gifts from Kangzhao's grandparents and aunt will be worth over one million taels of silver already. Shuihe will be in derision if we offer an amount less than that!""But there is a convention of the Royal Family's bride price." Gaomi King said hopefully, "For a prince like Shuihe, we're supposed to pay...""But the convention indicates a number no more than one hundred thousand taels!" Princess Gaomi was enraged, "It will be a shame on Shuihe if we follow that! The Sheng Family will tell everyone that Prince Mizhen Family lives on the dowry of Princess Kangzhao!"Unwilling to pay a huge amount, Gaomi King tried to persuade her, "The Sheng Fami
