Chapter 1408: One Makeup Poem After Another
Tang Bao keenly felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere.
So, he said with a smile: "Come on, go out and see where the groom is."
"Yes! Princess!"
A palace maid agreed and walked out with light steps.
At this time, the loud cry of a crane came from outside the window.
Tang Bao smiled.
"It seems that my fifth brother is coming soon."
As soon as Tang Bao finished speaking, there was a commotion outside.
Su'e, the head maid of Ci'an Palace, walked in from outside with a smile on her face and a pink letter in her hand.
Tang Bao's eyes lit up and she said, "This must be the poem my fifth brother wrote to urge me to get ready!"
Su'e smiled and said, "The princess guessed it perfectly. This was passed down from the front, saying that it was written by the Prince Consort himself..."
Everyone in the room became interested and expressed their desire to see the top scholar's literary talent.
However, this poem urging her to get ready must first be shown to Princess Huaning.
After all, this is written by the groom to the bride.
Princess Huaning took the letter with a shy look on her face. It was emitting a faint floral fragrance. She looked down and saw a poem written in a flamboyant style.
"She sits shyly on the dressing table with a fair face, surrounded by palace maids inserting phoenix hairpins... Don't ask if my lover is anxious, he is eager to come on the wind and on a crane!"
When Princess Huaning saw the end, her face became more and more shy and flushed, and her heart felt as sweet as if it was filled with honey.
Such bold and passionate words made Princess Huaning's heart beat fast, but she was too embarrassed to show it to others.
"Princess, the poem written by the number one scholar urging him to get ready must be very elegant. Let us see it for ourselves." said Concubine De.
As soon as Concubine De finished speaking, everyone in the room was surprised for a moment.
There's no way around it. Concubine De has always seemed to be out of touch with the world. No, it should be said that she is self-admiring, cold and arrogant, and disdains to be in the same boat with vulgar people like you.
Therefore, no one expected that Concubine De would be the first to speak.
Tang Bao smiled and said, "What Empress Defei said is true, Fifth Sister-in-law, all the empresses and ladies are waiting to see."
Princess Huaning originally wanted to put away the poem urging her to get ready, but now she feels it is difficult to refuse.
What's more, I was eager to tell everyone how happy the groom was, how much he cared about me, and how eager he was to marry me.
After a moment of hesitation, the pink letter was in Tang Bao's hands.
Tang Bao smiled and read it out loud.
"...Don't ask if my dear is anxious, I just want to ride the wind and come to you!"
When Tang Bao finished the last sentence, everyone in the room laughed.
"Hehehe... Look how anxious the groom is, he almost wants to ride the wind and come here."
"Hehehe... I originally thought that the top scholar was a calm and steady person, but I didn't expect that when it came to getting married, he would act like a brat..."
As soon as Concubine Shu finished speaking, the laughter in the room became even louder.
Everyone was laughing, and the palace maid Su'e came in with a smile on her face, bringing in a piece of letter.
——The second poem urging you to get ready has arrived!
Then came the third, fourth, and fifth song...
One after another, poems urging the girls to get ready flew to Ci'an Palace, emitting fragrance like flower petals.
At the same time, it also brings the groom's joy and eagerness.
In this way, Princess Huaning was given enough face.
Naturally, there were also some girls from the royal family in the room. It was impossible for these girls not to be envious when they saw this scene.
Every girl hopes that her future husband will value her like this!
Every girl hopes that her future husband will be as talented and eloquent as this!
What's more, this number one scholar was said to be handsome, elegant and graceful.
Soon, there was a noise outside the door.
Nanny Chen walked in with a smile on her face, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, several princes are leading a group of young masters and are preparing to stop the groom at the gate of Ci'an Palace..."
The Empress Dowager laughed when she heard this.
"Every ordinary family's wedding has this custom, and it's quite lively," the Empress Dowager said. "I sent word early this morning that we should follow the folk customs, lest everyone be so rigidly bound by etiquette that it diminishes the festive atmosphere."
"The Empress Dowager is absolutely right," an old princess said with a smile, "In the past, no one dared to laugh loudly, for fear of violating palace rules. Little did they know that weddings in the palace were less lively than those in ordinary homes..."
Upon hearing this, the others nodded in agreement.
The Emperor is extremely filial, and as long as it does not involve state affairs, the Empress Dowager's words are the rules!
The Empress Dowager looked at Nanny Chen again and warned, "Tell them I said not to make things too difficult for the groom!"
As soon as the Empress Dowager finished speaking, everyone laughed.
"As expected, the Queen Mother still loves the eldest princess the most. She loves the bridegroom too, and even loves the groom."
"There's a folk saying that goes, 'The more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more satisfied she becomes.' I'd say the Empress Dowager also grows more satisfied with her grandson-in-law the more she looks at him..."
"Hahaha... That's right, the Empress Dowager is worried that her grandson-in-law will be embarrassed and lose face..."
The Queen Mother also laughed after hearing what everyone said.
For a moment, the room was filled with a festive and lively atmosphere.
Tang Bao and several young girls from the Xuanyuan clan could no longer stay in the house.
They also wanted to see the lively scene outside with their own eyes.
The Sixth Princess ran to Tang Bao and said in a boastful manner, "My Third Brother is stopping your brother outside. Don't you want to go out and take a look?"
Tang Bao reached out and touched Liu Xiaohuachi's head, deliberately showing a hesitant expression.
"But if I go out, I will beg the Crown Prince not to embarrass my fifth brother. I can't let my brother in right away after hearing that. Then you won't have any fun."
Sixth Princess: “…”
I feel like I'm being bullied!
Originally, the Sixth Princess was also a quirky little girl. She was very smart at a young age, but when she met Xuanyuan Jin and Tang Bao, her intelligence seemed to have decreased.
However, this look actually seems more real, truly like a child of this age.
The Sixth Princess pouted and said angrily, "You're so unlovable! If you weren't pretty and my Third Brother only smiled at you, I wouldn't have asked you to leave!"
She refused to admit that she wanted to see her third brother laugh, so she went out with Princess Laford.
"Oh, so that's how it is." Tang Bao stretched out her tone and said, "In that case, I will..."
Tang Bao paused.
Sixth Princess: "...So what?"
Staring at Tang Bao nervously.
"I'll just... reluctantly accompany you out to take a look." Tang Bao said.
Sixth Princess: “…”
Although I felt like something was wrong, I couldn't help but feel happy.
She can see her third brother smile again today!
