Chapter 1962: Princess, please don’t look at it
The people in the Duke's Mansion are busy, and Tang Bao is busy too.
She was busy preparing the dowry for Princess Zimo.
After Emperor Zhengde granted the marriage that day, the Su family gave a betrothal gift.
After Tang Bao packed the original betrothal gifts, she picked out many valuable items from her private vault and used them all as Princess Zimo's dowry.
"Aunt, give me all these?" Princess Zimo looked at the boxes of silks, satins, gold, silver and jewelry, and felt like her eyes were about to be blinded.
"Well, all for you!" Tang Bao said without raising his head, and continued to pick things according to the booklet.
You know, when a girl from a wealthy family gets married, her parents-in-law will provide her with a lifetime of food, clothing, and even a few buckets for her descendants.
"Aunt, you are so kind!" Princess Zimo hugged Tang Bao and cried out with emotion.
Woohoo... She thought she was getting married without any dowry.
Her father didn't prepare any dowry for her at all.
She didn't blame her father either, because it was her father who was so poor now.
She just didn't expect that her aunt would give her so much!
Really, too many!
Even when his father was not poor, he probably could not give her such a large dowry.
"Oh, oh, oh... Little aunt, you are my real aunt!" Princess Zimo hugged Tang Bao tightly.
Although Princess Zimo is not a citizen of Dayan, she knows that dowry is a woman's confidence in her husband's family.
She is not an ignorant girl, nor is she a hypocritical person who regards money as nothing.
She also likes beautiful clothes, she also likes jewelry, and naturally she also likes to have a generous dowry.
Tang Bao patted Princess Zimo's shoulder, pulled her away with a smile, and said, "Okay, I'm your aunt and the Saint of Southern Xinjiang. I should prepare a dowry for you on behalf of Southern Xinjiang."
After Tang Bao finished speaking, he took out a large stack of banknotes and continued, "These banknotes are for you to keep in the bottom of the box."
Princess Zimo's eyes turned red. She took a few steps back and knelt down respectfully in front of Tang Bao.
"Zi Mo thanks the Saint!" Princess Zi Mo said seriously, "Zi Mo will never forget the Saint's kindness. If there is anything you need from me in the future, please just ask. I will definitely be there for you, even if it means death!"
Tang Bao quickly pulled Princess Zimo up and said with a smile, "We are all family. There is no need to say those strange words. You just need to live a good life with Chengyao from now on."
"Yes! I will listen to my aunt!" Princess Zimo nodded heavily, and tears finally fell.
Then, he vowed, "Don't worry, little aunt, I will definitely give birth to many sons and expand the Su family!"
Tang Bao: “…”
Tang Bao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"It's up to you. If you want to have a baby, then have it. If you don't want to have a baby, then don't." Tang Bao said.
"I will definitely have more children. We have a saying in Dayan, 'More children, more blessings,'" Princess Zimo said as a matter of course. "Our Su family is so blessed, it must be because my grandmother gave birth to many children and was blessed with so much, so she eventually welcomed my aunt, and then my aunt brought even more blessings..."
Princess Zimo spoke so confidently that Tang Bao was speechless.
However, the mentality of my niece-in-law has changed completely. She now speaks as "our Dayan" and "our Su family".
The betrothal gifts were ready, and Tang Bao was not vague. She looked at the group of strong men in the Holy Maiden Palace.
Well, now standing in front of these tough guys are a group of guards sent by the emperor.
These guards almost completely blocked the strong men from southern Xinjiang.
In the words of the guard commander, they were sent by the emperor to protect Tang Bao, and they must keep out outsiders to ensure the princess's safety.
As for the tough guys who were classified as "outsiders", they would naturally protest.
Tang Bao had no idea how the two sides were secretly competing, nor did she care.
However, when Tang Bao took a closer look, she found that all the guards from the palace were handsome and elegant.
By the way, does the palace also consider appearance when recruiting guards? Tang Bao wondered.
Tang Bao didn't know that these people were selected one by one according to their appearance at the suggestion of Eunuch Wang by the commander of the guards.
You can't let yourself be outdone by those men from southern Xinjiang, right?
"You are all responsible for carrying the dowry." Tang Bao said simply.
Whether it is the palace guards or the tough guys from southern Xinjiang, they must be utilized.
These people are good-looking and have good figures, and they are very pleasing to the eye and look very impressive when used to carry the dowry.
It will definitely add a lot of color to the wedding procession.
As soon as Tang Bao finished speaking, the palace maids and nannies sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs came with red silk cloth, big red flowers and other things, and dressed these people up in red and green.
The guard leader's mouth twitched, and he glanced at the tough guys from southern Xinjiang.
Those people have accepted it with pleasure.
So the guard leader also relaxed and quietly let the maids take care of him.
With the guard leader taking the lead, the other guards will naturally not resist.
As a result, these people were quickly tidied up and looked very festive.
The dowry was carried out of the Holy Maiden Palace with fanfare, and Tang Bao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Here he comes...here he comes...the groom is here to pick up the bride..."
As a burst of joyful shouting came from far away, the place outside the gate became lively.
The sounds of gongs and drums, firecrackers, and laughter filled the air.
"Aunt, what should I do?" Princess Zimo showed a rare nervous expression.
It seemed that it was not until this moment that she truly felt that she was going to get married.
"You don't have to do anything, just wait for Chengyao to pick you up." Tang Bao said with a smile.
Princess Zimo was still a little panicked. She reached out to adjust her crown and then stretched her wedding dress.
"Aunt, do I look good like this?" Princess Zimo stared at Tang Bao and asked nervously.
Tang Bao immediately said: "Beautiful! You are the most beautiful bride today!"
A nearby maid sent by the Imperial Household Department heard this and said with a smile, "The princess is so pretty, the groom will definitely be unable to take his eyes off her. Tonight, during the bridal chamber... it's bad!"
Before the nanny finished speaking, she suddenly remembered something and her face changed.
Then, he trotted over and picked up an exquisite booklet in the corner, muttering, "How could I have forgotten it?"
"What is this?" Tang Bao asked curiously.
After saying that, he walked over and wanted to take it to have a look.
The nanny subconsciously dodged, avoiding Tang Bao's hand, and said in a somewhat dry tone: "Princess, please don't look at this thing."
Tang Bao: “…”
Nanny: "...Um, this is the most precious treasure, it should be placed in the dowry box..."
Mammy's expression was a little strange.
"What is it? Let me see..." Princess Zimo was curious.
What is it that my aunt can’t even see?
By the way, not only Princess Zimo was curious, but Tangbao was also a little curious.
Princess Zimo finished speaking and took the booklet from the nanny's hand.
The nanny gave it to Princess Zimo very readily.
"Alright, Princess, take a quick look first. I'll go out and see where the groom is."
After saying this, Mammy hurried out.
However, when he reached the door, he turned back and gave another reminder.
"Princess, please don't look at it!"
Tang Bao: “…”
