Chapter 156 Auspicious Day
"My son has been working so hard that he has not taken care of his personal problems. Now that I am finally getting married, will my father still suppress me and prevent me from getting married? If so, it will really make my son heartbroken!"
Xiao Jinyi made a hurt expression. Emperor Wu An knew that this guy was acting with him, but what Xiao Jinyi said made sense.
Xiao Jinyi has been fighting outside for many years. Now that the world is finally at peace and someone wants him, he has to get married quickly.
But even if they want to get married, the other person's parents and brothers have to be present. "Jin Yi, father also hopes that Shi Xu can join our royal family as soon as possible, but getting married is not a trivial matter. Shi Xu's parents have to be around at least!"
When Xiao Jinyi heard that Emperor Wu'an had given in, he looked triumphant. He folded his hands and bowed to Emperor Wu'an, saying, "If your father is worried about this, then don't worry. Ah Xu's parents will be in the capital in two days."
When Emperor Wu An heard him say this, he nodded and said, "Is that so? It's time to start looking for a date. In fact, I have already chosen an auspicious date for you two and have asked the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to calculate it.
The birth dates of both of you are very compatible, and it would be even better if you got married on that day.
That day happens to be the 28th of next month. I will immediately issue an order to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to prepare for your wedding next month.
When you go back, don't forget to arrange for the people in the palace to make preparations. By the way, when the list of betrothal gifts is ready, send it to the palace so that I and your mother can take a look at it and give you some advice. ”
Xiao Jinyi was very happy when he got an exact date. When he heard Emperor Wu An mention the list of betrothal gifts, he remembered his plan yesterday.
So he asked Emperor Wu An for something directly, "I will go back and think about the betrothal gift list carefully, but Father, your son is getting married, as a father, don't you have to add something too?
In addition to the dowry for Ah Xu, I also have to add something to my betrothal gift. ”
Emperor Wu An now understood what this kid was planning. He was targeting his private vault.
Although both he and Queen Lin wanted to give something for their wedding, giving it willingly and asking for it proactively were two different things.
"Humph, I knew you were after my private vault, but these things should be given to you.
When your royal brother got married last month, your mother and I also added something new.
Instead of asking me for things, you might as well ask your brother. Your brother has a lot of good things. ”
"Of course, my son has this plan. I originally planned to ask you and the Queen Mother for something before going to find my eldest brother. But since you and the Queen Mother have already made preparations in advance, my son will go to find my eldest brother now."
Emperor Wu An waved his hand and told him to leave quickly. He was eager to see his eldest son being annoyed by his younger son, but it was a pity that he still had some memorials to review.
After leaving the imperial study, Xiao Jinyi went straight to the East Palace. Xiao Yuanqi, who was enjoying the cool air and scenery with Meng Jiyao under the corridor, heard someone report to Xiao Jinyi and asked someone to invite him over quickly.
Xiao Jinyi originally thought that Xiao Yuanqi was the only one there, but he didn't expect Meng Jiyao to be there too. It seems that the two of them have a good relationship!
"Meet my brother the Crown Prince and my sister-in-law the Crown Princess!"
When Xiao Yuanqi saw him bowing, he quickly reached out and supported his arm to prevent him from bowing.
"Why are brothers so polite?" After Xiao Yuanqi helped him up, he asked the same question as Emperor Wu'an, "But why did you think of coming to my place today? Aren't you always sticking to Shi Xu? I can only see you at court meetings. I finally wanted to talk to you after court, but you had already disappeared after chasing Shi Xu.
People say boys are extroverts. I didn’t believe it at first, but after meeting you, I found that this description was a bit euphemistic. ”
Meng Jiyao listened to Xiao Yuanqi complaining to the person involved and picked up a handkerchief to cover the smile on her lips.
Xiao Jinyi's eyes were so beautiful that even though Meng Jiyao covered her eyes with a handkerchief, Xiao Jinyi could still see that she was making fun of him.
"Brother, are you done complaining? I came here to tell you something."
When Xiao Yuanqi heard this, he thought he was going to tell him something serious, so he stopped complaining, sat down, poured a cup of tea for Xiao Jinyi, and then he picked up the celadon cup and sipped it carefully.
"I just went to see my father and asked him to choose an auspicious date for my wedding. The date is set for the 28th of next month."
"Oh, then what is the purpose of telling me all this?" Xiao Yuanqi thought that the wedding date had been set, and even if he didn't come and tell me, he would know it soon.
Xiao Jinyi must have something else to ask for this unnecessary trip. Xiao Yuanqi guessed the purpose of his visit based on the fact that he and Xiao Jinyi grew up together.
"You're not here to ask for anything, are you?"
Before Xiao Jinyi could say anything, Xiao Yuanqi had already guessed it. Since he had guessed it, Xiao Jinyi didn't hesitate and nodded and spoke frankly.
"Well, I am your biological brother, and you have watched me grow up. Now I am getting married soon. As my biological brother, you should give me something to add some color to the betrothal gift for your brother, that is, me!"
After hearing what he said, Xiao Yuanqi thought to himself, "Why did you come to see me today? It turns out you are after my things. You are a perfect example of never visiting someone for no reason!"
Xiao Jinyi said directly, "Then just tell me whether you will give it or not?"
It was rare for Xiao Yuanqi to see him playing tricks on him like he did when they were kids, so he felt quite nostalgic when he saw him like this.
"Tsk, look at how shameless you are. You can only act like a scoundrel in front of me and your sister-in-law, but never do this in front of Shi Xu. If he doesn't like you anymore and you two have a falling out, you can't blame me for not reminding you."
Xiao Jinyi felt his fist was a little hard. Looking at his brother who cursed his younger brother, Xiao Jinyi said that he was hurt in his heart and needed Xiao Yuanqi to send him more things to heal him.
"How can you say that about your own brother? I am hurt, and you have to compensate me."
Xiao Yuanqi raised his hand and slapped himself in the face. Why was he so talkative? Now, he has to give him one more portion. No matter how rich he is, he can’t go through so much trouble!
Besides, how can I be the only one going through this kind of blackmail situation?
"Don't worry, you'll have plenty of stuff, but you have more than one brother, so you can't just take me with you, right?"
"Of course!"
Meng Jiyao smiled and said, "Jin Yi and Shi Xu are getting married, and I, as their sister-in-law, cannot be stingy. I will also prepare a gift when the time comes."
"I've already paid for our family, what else can you pay for?" Xiao Yuanqi didn't want Meng Jiyao to bleed.
"That's different. What you gave was given by your brother, and what I gave was given by my sister-in-law. These are two different things."
