After the Wu family proposed marriage, they picked an auspicious day for the wedding and married Tang Li.
The Wu family attached great importance to this marriage, and all arrangements were handled by Mrs. Wu herself. It was not extremely luxurious, but every arrangement was done to the best of her ability.
The Wu family welcomed Tang Li into the family home in a sedan chair carried by eight people. This wedding was extremely grand and unprecedented in Qinghe County. It amazed everyone who watched that day and became a beautiful thing that everyone talked about with relish.
Tangli married into the Wu family, and her four children also moved in as adopted children.
Wei Qing finally got what he wanted. He no longer had to sneak to Tangli's house and could sleep with his wife in his arms every day.
Wei Qing was in high spirits as soon as he got home, which was completely different from the way he appeared in the government office and in front of his subordinates.
At first, Lord Wu and Madam Wu were worried that the child was too cold-hearted, taciturn, and uninterested in women, and that he would be alone all his life. Now it seems that they really thought too much!
At the same time, in the capital.
First, the emperor issued an imperial decree, conferring the title of Princess Anle on Miss Gu Ying of the Gu family, making Gu Ying the focus of discussion among the dignitaries in the capital.
Then, the Third Prince proposed marriage to the Gu Mansion. You have to know that the Third Prince was not only of noble status, but also handsome, gentle, and talented in both civil and military matters. He was the dream lover of countless noble ladies in the capital. The fact that such an outstanding Third Prince actually proposed marriage to Gu Ying naturally made countless people envious.
In the capital, at the Gu Mansion, in the courtyard.
A tall young man and a woman stood side by side.
"Aying, do you want to marry the third prince? If not, I will ask my parents to reject him." said the tall young man.
This tall young man is the eldest son of the Gu family, Gu Ying’s elder brother, Gu Huainian, and the woman is naturally Gu Ying.
Gu Huainian looked at Gu Ying with eyes full of doting.
"Brother, that's the Third Prince. How can you refuse that?" Gu Ying asked with her head tilted, a hint of innocence on her pretty face.
"Aying, if you don't want to, no one can force you, and your parents will definitely support you. Not to mention the third prince, even if His Majesty grants the marriage, if you don't want to, your father will beg His Majesty to revoke the decision." Gu Huainian said.
Over the years, many people have come to the Gu family to propose marriage, but everyone in the Gu family felt that those people were not worthy of Gu Ying, and Gu Ying did not like them, so they rejected them all.
Gu Ying is nineteen years old this year. She is considered old in the circle of noble ladies, and there are people who secretly talk about her behind her back.
But, the Gu family doesn’t care. What matters most is that Aying likes it.
If Aying doesn't want to get married, then the Gu family will support her for the rest of her life!
Aying suffered so much outside. They finally found Aying and they must give her the best in the world.
Gu Ying hugged his arm and said, "I don't want Daddy to disobey His Majesty, and I don't want the General's Mansion to be embarrassed because of me."
A smile appeared on Gu Huainian's face. Aying was so filial and considerate. How could there be such a good girl in this world?
Just when Gu Huainian was about to tell her not to worry so much, he saw a hint of shyness on Gu Ying's face.
"Brother, I actually like the Third Prince very much. I want to marry him."
Gu Huainian looked at her and saw that her eyes were full of love and she was very shy. It seemed that she really liked the third prince.
Since Aying likes it, then it will be a good gift for the Third Prince.
If the Third Prince dares to bully Aying in the future, he will definitely not let him off easily!
"Okay, then I understand." Gu Huainian rubbed Gu Ying's head lovingly, then turned and left.
He always acts in a hurry, with his feet moving so fast that he disappears in the blink of an eye.
As soon as Gu Huainian left, Gu Ying put away her innocent expression and her face became serious.
"Miss, are you really going to marry the third prince?" The speaker was Zhuyue, Gu Ying's trusted maid.
Gu Ying nodded: "Zhao Shu is the best choice."
In her previous life, she died with hatred in her heart. Before she died, she realized that love was the most useless thing. In her new life, all she wanted was power. She wanted to become the most supreme woman in the world, controlling the life and death of others.
The man she chose had to help her secure her place in the royal palace. Therefore, he had to be a prince, the one with the best chance of ascending the throne.
Over the years, she has been choosing between several princes and finally chose the third prince.
The third prince's mother's family is powerful, and he himself is talented in both civil and military affairs, ambitious, and deeply in love with her. For her, he has not married yet and does not even have a concubine.
Although Gu Ying had made up her mind that she would never fall in love with anyone in her life, it felt good to be liked by others. Moreover, this love would become her support.
The Gu family agreed to the third prince's proposal of marriage. The third prince was ecstatic and quickly asked someone to choose a date for the engagement.
A few months later, Miss Gu got engaged to the third prince. The engagement banquet was very grand and everyone praised Miss Gu for her good fortune.
Not only was she favored by the emperor but she was also engaged to the third prince. For a time, Gu Ying was the most popular person in the capital and was envied by everyone.
…
Time passed, and a year had passed quickly since the day the Wu family proposed to Tang Li.
A lot has happened this year.
First, the child of Shopkeeper Hua was born. He was a big fat boy, like Cao Ji, with a chubby head and very cute.
This made Wei Qing very greedy. Every time he came back from visiting, he would pester his wife and wished he could give birth to a litter of babies.
Tangli was really angry and amused.
Now, she still has an old enemy, Gu Ying, whose great revenge has not yet been avenged, and there is still a tough battle to fight. Her life has not settled down yet, and it is not time to have a baby yet.
Tang Li glared at him, and he shrank into the corner with a wronged look on his face, not daring to move.
Tang Li looked at his pitiful appearance and felt distressed. She went over to comfort him, but the man immediately turned into a big dog and pounced on her.
Tang Li then realized that she had fallen into a trap!
This fool has turned bad!
Wei Qing is silly and naughty at home, but he is completely different outside and is very reliable in doing things.
During this year, he helped the governor of Wen solve several difficult problems and was deeply appreciated and loved by the governor.
County Magistrate Wen knew that Wei Qing wanted to return to the capital, so when a suitable position became available in the capital, he immediately wrote a letter to his teacher recommending Wei Qing.
The position of Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Justice was a third-rank official, which was a significant improvement compared to his current official rank.
Wei Qing didn't care about promotion. The reason he wanted to join the Ministry of Justice was to investigate the truth about the Xiao family being framed for treason.
The incident was very complicated and involved many forces. His uncle investigated it for many years but still couldn't get to the bottom of it.
His goal is to find out who is behind this, to clear the name of the Xiao family, to avenge them, and to give justice to his mother, grandfather, and uncles!
They have devoted their entire lives to the country, fighting on the battlefield and shedding blood. They should not bear the stigma of being traitors!
