Chapter 491 Praise
Time flies as the children grow up day by day.
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye.
That day, a wedding invitation was sent from Prince Teng's Palace.
Qin Nian'er is the niece of Princess Teng and cousin of Prince Yuzhang. The Duke of Wei's Mansion set the wedding banquet date too close, and Mr. and Mrs. Qin had to go to Beijing to attend Prince Yuzhang's wedding and could not return in time, so they simply let Qin Nian'er marry out of Prince Teng's Mansion to save them the trouble of going back and forth.
The day after receiving the wedding invitation, Chen Wan asked Shanhu to deliver the makeup she had prepared in advance to Qin Nian'er.
But when she came back, Shanhu was holding a letter in her hand and happily reported to Xie Jingyu and Shen Wan, "Master and Princess, the princess sent a letter home from Shengzhou..."
Neither Chen Wan nor Xie Jingyu expected that the princess would send someone to deliver a letter from home.
"Give it to me."
Xie Jingyu stretched out his hand, and Shanhu quickly handed him the letter with both hands.
Xie Jingyu tore open the sealed letter from home.
Open.
He recognized it as his mother's handwriting at a glance.
In the letter, the princess asked Xie Jingyu and Shen Wan not to worry about her. She had a smooth journey to Shengzhou. Old Madam Jiang was very ill and probably didn't have much time left. She might have to stay in Shengzhou for a few more days. She asked Xie Jingyu to take good care of Shen Wan and the two children and not to worry about her.
Xie Jingyu was quite concerned about the princess. After all, in his memory, the princess had never left Kyoto, but he was not worried.
The people sent by Xie Jingyu were enough to protect the princess, and Uncle Li was still worried and followed secretly.
Shen Wan said, "My mother is very kind. She is so worried about Madam Jiang's condition. Let her stay in the Jiang family for a few more days to send Madam Jiang off for the last time."
She and Xie Jingyu stayed in Kyoto, and nothing happened. If something really happened, the princess probably wouldn't be able to help, and it would just be one more person to worry about.
If Madam Jiang had not been so kind to the princess, it would have been impossible for her to go to such a far place as Shengzhou when she was about to give birth.
Since you are going, you might as well fulfill the princess's filial piety to Old Madam Jiang.
Xie Jingyu thought so too, "I will write a letter home to my mother."
It’s a good time to send someone to ask Uncle Li about what happened when my father and mother were young.
He had checked and found that his father had gone to Dongliang with Prince Yong to celebrate his birthday 22 years ago. He suspected that his father had already known his mother at that time.
Xie Jingyu was worried about leaving this matter to someone else, so he sent Chen Ping.
…
The prince and princess were not in Kyoto, and Chen Wan was in confinement after giving birth. There were banquets of all sizes in Kyoto, and all kinds of social interactions.
Xie Jingyu would not go if he could avoid it, and sent Manager Zhou to deliver the congratulatory gifts to show his courtesy. However, since the prince of Weiguo was marrying the cousin of the Prince of Yuzhang, he had to attend the wedding.
After the wedding banquet was held at Prince Teng’s Mansion, it was time for the Prince of Wei to marry Qin Nian’er.
Because the Prince of Weiguo was making things difficult for the Prince of Yuzhang, the Prince of Yuzhang was nervous and made a fool of himself, and everyone was looking forward to the Prince of Yuzhang's counterattack.
The Prince of Yuzhang is famous for his revenge.
On this day, the prince of Weiguo was dressed in a bright red wedding dress, riding a horse with smooth fur, and bringing a sedan chair to the Prince of Teng's Palace.
The Prince of Yuzhang stood in front of the gate, looking like a lone man blocking the way for ten thousand, not to mention that Chu Yang, Zhao Ang and others were behind him.
As great as it felt to stop the Prince of Yuzhang last time, it feels just as sour this time when he comes to welcome the bride.
Where is your sister?
My sister solemnly promised him two days ago that she would not let Prince Yuzhang become a roadblock. She has only been married to Prince Yuzhang for a few days, and she is so unreliable in doing things?
The Prince of Weiguo said, "Come on."
Prince Yuzhang waved his hand, and Chu Yang and Zhao Ang behind him took a step forward.
Prince Yuzhang took two steps back. He knew at a glance that he was the trump card and asked the most difficult questions.
Um.
In order to make things difficult for the Prince of Weiguo, the Prince of Yuzhang specially set up a table in Deyue Tower a few days ago and invited Chu Yang, Zhao Ang and the Prince of Yongwang to dinner.
After all, several of these brothers have married, and they have been roadblocks many times. The arts of music, chess, calligraphy, painting, axes, halberds, hooks and forks seem a bit stale, and they need something different.
You have to make it difficult for the Prince of Weiguo, but you can't really embarrass him. Don't ask him why he shows mercy, he just doesn't want to sleep in the study.
After the meal, everyone brainstormed and all kinds of bad ideas were flying around.
Normally, bad ideas are useless, but when you are a roadblocker, you just want to create some fun, so bad ideas are perfect.
However, music, chess, calligraphy, painting, axes, halberds, hooks and forks are also indispensable, so you still have to show some respect.
He made a pair and shot another arrow.
Just when the Prince of Weiguo thought they were showing mercy to him, onions were served.
The Prince of Weiguo, "..."
Onion ate until tears streamed down his face.
He was given chili peppers again.
The Prince of Weiguo was so regretful.
On the day of the wedding, why didn't he think of serving a fish to Prince Yuzhang and asking him to pick out all the fish bones?
There were all kinds of strange and bizarre problems that others could not even imagine. Needless to say, it was much more interesting than watching the acrobatics of Prince Yuzhang that day.
Last time, the Prince of Yuzhang had to pass through five gates and kill six generals, but when he came to the Prince of Weiguo's place, he had to pass through five gates and eat six kinds of food.
Everyone was almost full before the banquet even started.
The question is not difficult, but it is a little hard to swallow.
There was a glint of fire in the eyes of the Prince of Weiguo.
Finally, only the Prince of Yuzhang was left. The Prince of Weiguo poured tea and said, "What else can I eat? Bring it up."
Prince Yuzhang said, "You've tasted everything, sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, and salty. What else do you want to try?"
The Prince of Weiguo asked, "What's your question?"
Prince Yuzhang waved his folding fan and said with a smile, "Write a poem to praise me."
The Prince of Weiguo, "..."
It would be better to let him eat all that mess.
And praise him?
The prince of Weiguo was about to raise his fist, "Brother-in-law, can you please have some shame?"
Prince Yuzhang raised his hand to interrupt him, "Don't shout nonsense, you are here to welcome the bride today, so you should follow your cousin and call me 'cousin'."
Laughter broke out all around.
He is both brother-in-law and cousin...
The Prince of Weiguo looked at the paper and pen brought to him, and the corners of his mouth and eyes twitched.
The Prince of Yuzhang was definitely taking revenge on him for beating him so many times.
Why could Qin Nian'er be anyone else's cousin, but the Prince of Yuzhang's cousin?
Being stopped outside Prince Teng's Palace, what could he do but to boast against his conscience.
The Prince of Wei had never found writing poetry so difficult.
What’s even more infuriating is that the Prince of Yuzhang asked, “Please be sincere when you praise me. If you don’t, you won’t be able to enter the gate of my Prince Teng’s Palace.”
The Prince of Wei racked his brains and wrote four sentences.
The first sentence praises Prince Yuzhang for having a father and mother who love him.
The second sentence praises the Prince of Yuzhang for having many friends.
The third sentence praises the Prince of Yuzhang for having a good Princess.
In the fourth round, the prince of Yuzhang was praised for having a good cousin.
Prince of Yuzhang, “…”
Praise.
But it was just a lonely boast.
Prince Yuzhang said, "Why are you praising me so much?"
It's a pity it's too late.
While Prince Yuzhang was reading the poems, the Prince of Wei had already entered Prince Teng's mansion.
