Chapter 283: Marriage

Song Yuqiu twitched the corners of his mouth.

Sometimes she felt that her sister Zhuoning's focus was really strange.

At this point, shouldn't I be worried that the secret of my rebirth will be exposed?

And what she cares about is that hypnosis can make people express their true feelings? !

"Sister Zhuoning, aren't you afraid that I'll tell your secret?"

Xie Zhuoning said nonchalantly, "Whatever you say, who would believe such nonsense?"

It's good enough that we don't suspect she's mentally ill.

Song Yuqiu: “…”

Seems to make sense, huh?

"Don't worry about that. Tell me, can your hypnosis be used for torture and interrogation?"

Xie Zhuoning was obviously more concerned about hypnosis and had a face full of curiosity.

"Actually, this is my first time using hypnosis, and my technique is not mature enough. It was purely a coincidence that I succeeded. Also, if the other person has a strong will and is more resistant, it is generally difficult to hypnotize him." Song Yuqiu told the truth.

She was not sure that she could make those vicious criminals confess their crimes honestly.

"Is that so?" Xie Zhuoning was still a little disappointed.

I originally thought I could use this to gain a lot of intelligence.

In this case, she didn't hesitate any longer and said, "Get out of the car."

…

The sixth day of the 11th month.

King Xuan proposed marriage.

All the common people in Beijing ran to watch this grand event.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is a prosperous occasion.

Lifts of betrothal gifts lined the street from one end to the other.

The festive red ribbon flutters like a dancing dragon.

The entrance of Xie Mansion.

After the maids tiptoed around to look around, they immediately ran inside and told Old Madam Xie everything that happened outside.

"Madam, you don't know, the betrothal gifts are piled up one after another, and there is no telling how much there is. You can't even see the end at a glance."

"People outside say that His Royal Highness Prince Xuan emptied out the Prince Xuan's mansion in order to marry the eldest daughter."

"Not only that, I heard that His Majesty gave me a lot of rewards!"

When Mrs. Xie heard this, she couldn't stop smiling, "Okay, okay!"

When Xie Zhuoning's mother married into the Xie family, she brought her own red makeup.

Now it sounds like Prince Xuan's plan to marry Miss Zhuoning is even more ambitious than before!

She was so happy that she asked hurriedly, "Who is the one who came to propose marriage on behalf of King Xuan?"

The maid replied, "I heard it was Prime Minister Shen."

The Left Prime Minister Shen Li'an was the late emperor's companion in study and also taught Prince Xuan. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was Prince Xuan's teacher.

Moreover, Prime Minister Shen is already old and his health has long been unable to bear the strain. Now he can hardly even attend court.

The fact that Prince Xuan was able to ask Prime Minister Shen to propose marriage shows that he is sincere.

"Since Prince Xuan can do this, then our Xie family can't be any worse off. Go and get my crimson pine and crane longevity dress, and the jade crown for my head."

"yes."

The maids brought clothes and headdresses and helped Old Madam Xie to wear them.

Si Xi smiled and said, "The old lady looks really energetic in this outfit, as if she is ten years younger."

Madam Xie poked her head and said, "You are the only one who speaks sweetly."

Just as we were laughing, a disdainful and cold voice came over, "Grandma, why are you dressed so elegantly? My eldest sister didn't even send anyone to invite us."

Madam Xie's face froze, and she said, "Perhaps Miss Zhuoning was too busy to remember. Such an important matter must be presided over by the elders."

As she spoke, she looked up and saw her grandson with a depressed look on his face and wrinkled clothes, just like a beggar on the street.

"Where have you been? Why are you like this?" As he got closer, the strong smell of alcohol rushed straight to his head, "Have you been drinking?"

Xie Mingyuan sneered, "Grandma still cares about me. Have you ever cared about your grandson's wife who has always been by your side and your unborn great-grandson?"

Madam Xie turned her head away and said, "It's all in the past. Why are you talking about this?"

Xie Mingyuan's tears suddenly welled up, "Grandma, do you know? Jinyun is dead, she is dead!"

As the wife of the Xie family, he couldn't even let her be buried in the ancestral tomb!

"What?" Madam Xie stood there in a daze, looking a little dazed.

So much so that when the servant came in hurriedly and said that the betrothal ceremony had already begun, she was still a little dazed, "There are no elders there, who will make the decision?"

The servant said, "It's Concubine Xiang! I heard that Concubine Xiang has adopted the eldest daughter as her goddaughter!"

Since she is the godmother, she is naturally considered the elder.

Old Madam Xie's body swayed, and she didn't fall down thanks to Si Xi who quickly supported her.

She had a sweet and fishy taste in her throat and cried out in sorrow, "Girl Zhuo Ning is still blaming me, she is still blaming me!"

Xie Mingyuan felt extremely bored and staggered out.

Xie Zhuoning, you must be very happy now, right?

It’s okay, you will soon be in the same pain as me!

Zhenyang Marquis Mansion.

When Xie Zhuoning heard the news, he came out with a look of surprise on his face, "Empress Xiang, Princess Yunheng, why are you here?"

Xiang Fei wore a long skirt that trailed on the ground, her hair was tied up in a bun, and she wore a phoenix-tail hairpin, exuding elegance from head to toe.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he still had the familiar hot temper, "Girl, why are you calling me Niangniang? Call me Niang!"

Princess Yunheng quickly pulled her sleeves, "Mother, Youya, Youya, don't forget, we are here to support Sister Ning."

With this shout, it was a waste of her to be dressed so elegantly today.

Xie Zhuoning smiled secretly and didn't bother to be polite with them. "Okay, mother-in-law, Yunheng, let's go into the mansion first."

Just as they were about to enter the mansion, Xiao Jinxuan and Prime Minister Shen arrived.

Prime Minister Shen took out the marriage decree, and everyone knelt down to listen to his order.

"The Emperor of Heaven and the Fate of the Emperor decrees that there is a gentle and virtuous daughter of the Xie family, with both talent and appearance... She is specially granted marriage to Prince Xuan, and a date will be chosen for the wedding!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xie Zhuoning stretched out his hands and took the imperial edict.

Seeing that Xie Zhuoning was well-mannered and neither humble nor arrogant, Prime Minister Shen immediately stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction.

There are rumors outside that this girl is so terrible, but after seeing her today, she is quite good.

No wonder King Xuan is so concerned about her.

After reading the imperial edict, Xiao Jinxuan stepped forward and saluted Xiang Fei first, "Meeting Her Majesty Xiang Fei."

"Alright, today I am not a concubine, I am just the godmother of the girl Zhuo Ning, there is no need for the red tape."

Concubine Xiang had great trust in Xiao Jinxuan's character.

What's more, Xiao Jinxuan loves Yunheng the most.

Concubine Xiang was extremely satisfied with this marriage.

"Yes." Xiao Jinxuan stood up and his eyes unconsciously fell on Xie Zhuoning who was standing beside him.

She was wearing a silky crabapple dress today. The bright color made her look as beautiful as a blooming flower.

I wonder what she will look like when she puts on her tiara and bridal robe on her wedding day.

Xie Zhuoning had no time to take care of him, because the servants came to report that the warehouse yard was full and asked her what to do with it.

She stared in surprise, "How much betrothal gift did Xiao Jinxuan send?"
