After a long while, Madam Hua waved her hand and said, "You should go back first. I'll think of a way to handle this matter."
Upon hearing this, Hua Yin lowered her eyes slightly and obediently said, "Okay."
After she left, Madam Hua fell into deep thought.
...
After leaving Hua Mansion and returning to the palace, Zhao Cheng thought for a moment and then went to Yu Xian Palace first.
Anyone with eyes can see that the Emperor favors the Empress. He doesn't know if there will be any new concubines in the harem in the future, but right now, the Empress is enjoying the Emperor's favor.
The Emperor's sudden summons to the Hua residence today to issue an imperial decree for marriage is also for the sake of the Empress.
Because Miss Hua displeased the Empress, the Emperor did not hesitate to send his only cousin far away.
He had heard that when Old Master Hua was alive, he had been a great mentor to the Emperor. Even though Old Master Hua had passed away many years ago, he was still respected by the Emperor, and the entire Hua family was also favored by the Emperor.
But this time, even the old master Hua's face was no longer of any use in bestowing a marriage upon Miss Hua.
It is evident that the Empress's position in the Emperor's heart surpasses that of everyone else.
Although the Emperor had not instructed him to report this matter to the Empress, he felt that it was still necessary for the Empress to know, and he believed that she would be very happy to know.
Given his current position, although he doesn't need to deliberately flatter or fawn over anyone, he is someone close to the emperor and someone valued by the emperor, so he should naturally put more effort into his work.
As his thoughts raced, he arrived at the gates of Yuxian Palace.
As soon as I got outside, I heard laughter and chatter coming from the courtyard.
Zhao Cheng stepped inside.
Today, Shangguan Yanran entered the palace, so Rong Qingqing called Feng Xin over as well. The three of them were sitting in the courtyard enjoying the flowers, drinking tea, and chatting about interesting things.
At this moment, Xiao Tao asked in surprise, "Why is Steward Zhao here?"
Upon hearing this, Rong Qingqing and the others stopped talking and looked at Zhao Cheng.
Rong Qingqing had little contact with Xie Jingrun's trusted eunuch, so she was somewhat surprised to see him suddenly appear and asked, "Is Your Majesty coming over for lunch?"
Zhao Cheng stepped forward and respectfully replied, "This servant has just returned from the Hua residence and has not yet gone to the Imperial Study to see His Majesty."
Rong Qingqing was taken aback. "Steward Zhao went to the Hua residence?"
“Indeed,” Zhao Cheng replied. “His Majesty has ordered me to go to the Hua residence to deliver the imperial decree.”
Rong Qingqing was immediately surprised.
She had never heard Xie Jingrun mention this matter.
Before he could ask, Feng Xin, who was standing to the side, blurted out, "What is the Emperor's decree?"
"His Majesty has chosen a marriage for Miss Hua, and she will be married on the fifteenth of next month," Zhao Cheng replied with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Rong Qingqing was somewhat surprised.
Is Huayin getting married next month?
It felt a bit sudden.
After what happened last time, she thought Xie Jingrun wouldn't bring it up again for the time being. After all, Hua Yin fainted as soon as he opened his mouth last time.
Unexpectedly, only two days later, we received this news.
She naturally understood Xie Jingrun's intention; he wanted to put her mind at ease.
"Where will you marry?" Shangguan Yanran followed up, asking curiously.
"Jinzhou," Zhao Cheng replied truthfully.
Upon hearing this, all three of them were stunned.
Jinzhou is quite far from the capital, and can already be considered a border town of the Liang Dynasty.
Unexpectedly, Xie Jingrun sent Huayin to Jinzhou...
Coming to her senses, Rong Qingqing said with a smile that she was truly pleased with Xie Jingrun's decisiveness this time.
"I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Steward Zhao."
