Although Madame Tao had persuaded Jiang Yashuang to discuss the marriage in person, he didn't expect Qiu Yelan would refuse, "I am no good enough for a gentleman...."
"If you were not good enough, no one would dare to call themselves beautiful in this world." Now that he had made the offer of marriage, Jiang Yashuang felt much at ease and said straightforwardly, "In fact, I am no match of you in social status and looks. I am just a civilian. I dare beg you just because of my aunt."
"Anyway, that's what it means." Qiu Yelan said plainly, "If you talk about appearance, I actually think that if I marry you, everybody will say that I have married up. I have nothing in this world except myself."
As for the dowry of Old Princess Lian and Princess Ruan, with the prestige of Jiang family, it's worth nothing even plus the entire property of Prince's Mansion of Xihe.
Jiang Yashuang thought for a while and said, "I know what you are worried a
Qiu Yelan glared at the careless maid. Seeing her hesitant appearance, she knew that she had eavesdropped on the door for so long. If she didn't hear all of her conversation with Jiang Yashuang, she might hear something about it. However, Qiu Yelan didn't want to mention this now, so she brushed her sleeves and said, "All right. I'm coming out. Where's the dinner? Why don't you serve the dishes?"Su He hurriedly ran to serve the food. Mrs. Zhou, Chunran and others heard that she was out of the inner chamber, so they all gathered to comfort her.Qiu Yelan was absent-minded and perfunctory. She finished her dinner and rinsed her mouth under the service of everyone. Then she remembered to ask, "Has the matter of Yunyi Restaurant spread to the Prince's Mansion?"Mrs. Zhou sighed, "The servants outside are talking about it, but you can rest assured that no one dares to come here to make trouble, even if they are gossiping in private, they are also h
Qiu Yelan narrowed her eyes and sharply criticized him and said, "I have always heard that Master Qiu is a great warrior. Why are you eavesdropping on us in a tree like a thief?"Qiu Feng did not deny it, "It is true that I have been hiding in a tree, but this is because in the evening, after hearing the rumors outside, your brother, Ruan Qingyan was worried that Your Grace is worried too much, in case you can't get over it... That's why he asked me to protect you."He solemnly said, "Although I have been watching Your Grace after arriving, I don't deliberately eavesdrop on your conversation. It is because of the stillness of night so that I heard a few words. Of course, I won't tell anyone about it."Qiu Yelan snorted, "My cousin always spoils me. If he is worried about me, why doesn't he visit me himself? He unexpectedly entrusted an outsider?""Your brother is so drunk today that when he asked me to do this, he was still talking
Mrs. Gu said angrily, "You are my future daughter-in-law. Why would I frame you? Do you think I'm okay about my son being despised because of you?""Ridiculous!" Tang also shouted coldly. "You did such a shameless thing. Not only Prince's Mansion of Xihe is in trouble, but cousin Deng Yi loses his face, and now you blame us? Do you have any sense of shame?"Qiu Yelan wouldn't give in. She sneered and said, "Shame? Last time, Gu Yan, Young Prince of Duke of Guangyang, flirted with me openly in the palace. If General Jiang hadn't passed by and help me, I would have killed myself by bumping my head on the pillar in Liuchun Pavilion! How could you take your anger out on me because you can't control your husband?""You!" Tang was outraged. Mrs. Gu was silent for a moment and then screamed, "You are talking nonsense!"Qiu Yelan looked at her with disdain, "You know whether I'm talking nonsense or not! I can swear on my parents' spirits t
Jiang Qizheng chatted with Princess Yang for a long time. But she still didn’t see Qiu Yelan coming out. So, she suspected that Mrs. Gu and Tang who arrived early had done something to Commandery Princess Ningyi. She was about to make Princess Yang tell the truth by virtue of her Princess title. Finally, the sound of footsteps came from outside. And then a maid came in and reported, “Mrs. Gu and Commandery Princess Ningyi are here.”Princess Yang smiled reluctantly and looked at Chunfu Princess. Although they were in the Prince's Mansion of Xihe, Chunfu Princess and Princess Yang were the same level, besides Chunfu Princess was a guest. After Chunfu Princess nodded, Princess Yang then said, “Invite them in!”After a while, Qiu Yelan came in leisurely. Mrs. Gu who dressed up followed her.“Your Grace, do you have something to instruct us coming here today?” after some chitchats, Princess Yang finally asked the real question which everyone was th
It was not long after Qiu Yelan went back to her yard, Jiang Qizheng was coming for Shao Yuemei.As she was here not for her, Qiu Yelan, of course, would leave them alone. She commanded the maids to prepare the snacks and tea for them, said hello to Jiang Qizheng and Madam Shao before she left.Seeing Qiu Yelan leaving the room, Shao Yuemei asked, "Your Highness, are you here for..." She looked at Qiu Yelan's room direction while she was speaking. "So, what's the plan now?" added Shao Yuemei. The Jiang Family sent her over here to spy and investigate Qiu Yelan because she would be the daughter-in-law of the Jiang Family. At this point, Shao Yuemei, of course, was a loyal follower of the family. About the rumblings spreading from the Yunyi Restaurant, the maid brought from the Jiang Family had told her the truth after the maid gossiped with others. So, it did not need Jiang Qizheng to explain more about it."My grandma has a good impression of h
"Chu Xiao, the Duke of Huainan?" asked Qiu Yelan in surprise. "Why him?" Long ago, when she was commanded to the palace, Ruan Qingyan coached her about the loyal members. The Duke of Huainan was the one among his introduction. He was the half-brother of the Emperor, but he was adopted by the former emperor's brother, Prince Gonghuai when he was a baby.At that time, Gaozong emperor established the eldest son as Crown Prince. But unfortunately for the prince, he died before becoming an emperor. Gaozong had no more children, so he established Prince Gonghuai as Crown Prince. Gaozong made the former emperor become the Crown Prince. Then the former emperor selected his fourth son Chu Xiao to be adopted for the continuation of Prince Gonghuai ‘s family.No matter in the regime periods of the former emperor or the current emperor, Chu Xiao always enjoyed privileges because he was not only the son of the previous emperor, but an heir of Prince Gonghuai. Now, the P
Returning to Prince's Mansion of Xihe, Xiaran submitted a letter and reported, "This was from a family whose surname is also Qiu.""Got it." Qiu Yelan took it and looked at it. In addition to some of the usual words, it said that they wanted to pay a visit three days later. So, Qiu Yelan told Xiaran, "Is the person who sent the post still there? If he is, tell him that I would be here waiting three days later."Xiaran answered and went out to instruct a young maid to pass on the message.Chunran then asked, "Is this Qiu Bo among these guests the one we met at the entrance of the examination compound last time?""It should be her." Qiu Yelan remembered when she entrusted "Tianya" to block the two tenders that sent by Mrs. Gu, Xiaran witnessed the three brothers and sisters of Qiu Family happened to pass by. She sneered, "This Qiu Qian, should be their young sister." So she ordered, "Prepare one more seat in the girl's school, as wel
Jiang Qizheng was "reminded" by Madame Tao. Knowing that it was Mrs. Gu who had harmed Qiu Yelan, she no longer opposed the marriage.However, she was not in favor of it either. After all, Qiu Yelan’s reputation was really not that good. Jiang Qizheng always loved his brother more. She struggled between guilt for Qiu Yelan and love for Jiang Yashuang for a long time and decided not to care about this matter, "Anyway, grandma is smart and capable, and she has always treated him like her own grandson. There is no need to worry."She was not ready to be the sister-in-law, but Princess Yongfu was anxious.She was a naughty princess. As for the gossip on reputation... When Empress Jiang decided to do politics, the criticism from all over the empire was much fiercer than the rumor today. There were even imperial censors who threatened to commit suicide in court.As Empress Jiang's daughter, she wouldn't care about such trifles as now. Besides,
In fact, no matter according to the intention of Emperor Chong Heng, or the meaning of the Supreme Emperor, originally did not want to delay the ceremony so long - the latter, of course, is anxious to see his grandson to be enrolled as the crown prince.But there is no way, two days before Xin Fubing came back, when the Imperial Doctor asked Qiu Hilan for a peaceful pulse, he found that she was pregnant again.Considering the tediousness of the Ceremony of the Register of the Empress, as well as the fact that Qiu Hilan was already past her prime, even though she had already given birth to five children, in the end, it was still better to be careful.Though the Emperor Taishang was wary of the Qiu family, he did not deliberately torment his daughter-in-law who was pregnant with his first grandson or first granddaughter, so after listening to Emperor Chongheng's explanation, he did not say anything more, and rewarded things according to the example.Although Em
At the end of the third year of Jianjia, after Prince Jiang Yashuang's pleading, and Pingyang County Lord Jiang Tianhe's crying, Emperor Jianjia finally agreed to let Jiang Tianhe send someone to Lvdi, to pick up Xin Fubing to return to the capital for a reunion.It was already the end of the year, and Xinfu Bing definitely couldn't come back that year.But to the following year after the spring, Jiang Tianhe let the eldest son personally take people to Lu Di to pick up his daughter, this pick up but picked up a full two years - with Chu Weitong, in the process of the Great Qin Dynasty Rui all over the scars of Xin Fubing, do not want to go back to the capital of this heartbreak, and more do not want to see will remind her of the past of the deceased people.Until two years later, in the seventh year of Jianjia, Emperor Jianjia's old injuries from that year's conquest of the Northern Frontier flared up, and he was collectively advised by the Imperial Hospital to re
Donggong Na people thing finally ended up in the end, but Jianjia Emperor's purpose has also reached part of the: Dingxi Marquis Qiu Jinglan self-requested to be released.With his title and had served in the official position, the external capping of the great officer is also considered relegation. However, since Qiu Jinglan brought it up, he had his own reasons, "Having served as the Great General of Zhenxi, that was during the time of Qianrui. At that time, the real host was actually Mr. Ren, not me. Properly speaking I was still too young in the end - in the early years there were constant natural and man-made disasters, and I didn't dare to leave the center. Now the situation has stabilized, I should also to the bottom of the sharpening to go, now do not go, difficult to wait for the age, legs and feet are not flexible and then run around it?"So it makes sense, Jianjia Emperor is very satisfied with his sense of humor, "He put out to sharpen a decade up and down an
Jianjia Emperor's depression Jiang Yashang all ignore, back to the East Palace, told his wife, "or some dynasty annoyance!""The beginning of everything is difficult, after some days will be good!" During this period of time, Jianjia Emperor father and son played a double act to cover up their childishness and negligence in governing not once or twice, Qiu Hilan didn't suspect at all, but instead warmly consoled him, "Not to mention that there is enough rainfall this spring, I'm afraid that it will be a good year, but it's a good omen!"In these days of dependence on God for food, a good year is a great thing that everyone up and down the land looks forward to.Jiang Yashuang's expression also eased when he heard this, "It's not even autumn yet, I just hope that nothing will happen next!"How can ... not happen again?As if deliberately trying to sharpen the trembling rulers, a spring with plenty of rain was followed by a drought in which the country we
Jiang Yashuang put down his hand, raised his eyes to look at Emperor Jianjia for a moment, and said softly, "You ... don't like the big house ...""Our father and son in the end do not get along for a long time, all this, you still use such euphemistic wording?" Jianjia emperor heard, laughed out loud, despondent patted his shoulder, sighed, "What do not like ... district do not like, worth for father I sent the competent generals, a thousand miles from the northern border to go to Kui County stakeout? That is the most swarthy group of people under my father's command, which is as good as a team of a hundred men in the northern border!""How many such sons and daughters are not too many, and can they just go on a stakeout?!"Emperor Jianjia sneered, "Their original mission was to go kill people!"Kill who?Jiang Yayun, of course!Emperor Jianjia was not a merciful person in the first place, and for the sake of his own future, he was even able to g
Jiang Yashuang was horrified!"How can it be?!"No wonder he was so surprised - his uncle grandfather in the eyes of Emperor Zhaode and the old king of Ji, absolute elder brother as father, completely as a father to see! And still filial son to the kind of father.Although it was said that when the news of the death of the Kui County man - posthumously crowned Dun Wang in this dynasty, and called Old Dun Wang in order to differentiate himself from the current Dun Wang Jiang Tian ardent - reached the capital, due to the blow of the Old Ji Wang's passing, the Zhaode Emperor, who had already been ill at the time, added to his woes, and his condition worsened to the point that the The entire Jiang family was preparing his afterlife at that time. But it was under these circumstances that Emperor Zhaode still insisted on asking about the causes and consequences of this elder brother's passing!Emperor Zhaode's questioning is certainly not just asking the person who
"Your daughter-in-law approached you about An'er?" Emperor Jianjia was waiting for his son in the Warm Pavilion, and when his beloved chamberlain saw Jiang Yashuang come in, he brought tea with both hands and retreated out in silence, leaving only father and son to talk.Jiang Yashang first gave Jun Father a salute, and only then did she take her seat under his gesture, saying, "She is also afraid that after the children grow up a bit, an unguarded person underneath instigated them, so she thought to take precautionary measures before it happens, lest he brew any bitter fruit in the future."Emperor Jianjia gave a "hmm" and said, "This is what she thinks, what about yourself? What do you think?"Hearing the drift in his tone, Jiang Yashang frowned slightly, speculating whether this was a sign of dissatisfaction? His mind turned, and he said, "That's what my child thinks too ...""Not to mention An'er swaddling clothes is your couple raised, on his father, alt
Jiang Yashuang was originally in deep thought, when he heard his wife mention Dun Wang Jiang Tian arbor, his face immediately became unsightly, "An'er is very understanding, and does things in an atmospheric manner, I see him but not like great-uncle, but like eighth brother, very much like being an elder brother!"... His own father was not the great uncle s self reliance on favor insatiable, to force desperate, only to embark on the sacrifice of the first eldest son to fulfill their own this road? The entire tragedy of the fourth house is also from here.Although he hid this past event from his wife with the idea of keeping it secret for his elders, he remembered it in his own heart - not only remembered it, but it had reached the point of taboo.Autumn Hikilan did not know the reason, seeing her husband's suddenly sullen face and rather reprimanding tone, she thought that he was simply unwilling to think that way. She felt tricky in her heart, "Doesn't nineteen
Chang mom came over because after the end of Empress Min Rou's affairs, although the new king remembers that she served Empress Min Rou for a time, intends to grant her a grant to let her go back to the family to enjoy the blessings of life, but she has followed the Empress from the age of a young girl, the master and servant have been together for several decades, and the blood relatives are almost the same.The Empress left so abruptly that Chang's mother couldn't accept it emotionally and couldn't settle down to go home, so she suggested that she wanted to continue to serve Empress Min Rou's descendants - just as the Eastern Palace was newly established, the status of the children in the Eastern Palace was changing, and the first-born children of the Hui Wang House and the Jing Wang House were taking over, all of which required additional manpower.She has no problem with loyalty, experience and qualifications, Qiu Hilan is in short supply, of course, will not be push
