"Your Majesty, I have sent someone to investigate." Huai Ye reported that the explosion was so loud that it must have happened not far from the palace.

"Prince Rui, I leave this matter to you to investigate. Huai Ye, please give me your full assistance."

Dare to make such a big noise near the palace, do you think that the emperor is dead? !When he thought of Prince Sichuan's indulgence, the disloyalty of his courtiers, and the sound of explosions so close at hand, Xuan Zheng's face turned livid with anger.

"Yes, father, don't worry, I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter!"

Several people left the palace. Li Youcai took the imperial edict and the people in the palace to Yun Mansion, while Xuan Ming walked slowly to the palace gate with King Rui.

"Fourth nephew, I have heard that after the Chinese New Year, many fireworks and firecracker sales points have a lot of overstocked inventory, especially in the Chang'an Street area. Fourth nephew is a talented person, and the safety of the people of the capital is left to you."

Xuan Ming spoke with sincerity and entrusted King Rui with important responsibilities.

King Rui's eyes lit up. Xuan Ming was trying to give him a hint. Originally, Uncle Nine Emperors had always had a neutral attitude. Was he going to support his rise to power?

He bowed and saluted respectfully towards Xuan Ming: "Thank you, Uncle Nine Emperors, for your advice. My king... um, my nephew will definitely live up to the expectations of my father and Uncle Nine Emperors."

Xuan Ming nodded, patted King Rui on the shoulder and left.

……

Li Youcai arrived at the Yun Mansion with the imperial edict. Mrs. Yun and Mr. Yun immediately brought the whole family of Yun Mansion to greet him, and everyone knelt on the ground.

Everyone murmured in their hearts that the power of the Hou Mansion had reached its peak, and it was impossible to grant an official title, so it would be a marriage.Could it be Yun Jingbai, who has been favored recently?The news in the palace is really strict, and not even a hint of news has been revealed.

Amid everyone's speculation, Li Youcai opened the imperial edict, cleared his throat and read it.

"By God's blessing, the emperor's edict says: Yun Yige, the daughter of Yuntingxin in the Hou Mansion, is skillful and generous, gentle and honest, outstanding in appearance, virtuous and virtuous, beautiful in appearance, intelligent in appearance, dignified and steady. I am very pleased to hear this."

"Now that the Emperor's Ninth Brother is getting married, he should choose a virtuous girl and his wife. As Yun Yige waits to be married, you and the Emperor's Ninth Brother are a match made in heaven. For the beauty of marriage, you are specially betrothed to the Emperor's Ninth Brother as his concubine. .”

"All etiquette will be handled by the Ministry of Etiquette and the Qin Tian Jian Zheng, and the wedding will be completed on an auspicious day! Announcement will be made at home and abroad, and the envoys will hear it and admire it!"

Li Youcai dragged out the last note to finish reciting the imperial edict.

The faces of the Yun family members varied after hearing this. Madam Yun and Master Yun didn't say anything, but after looking at Mrs. Song and Yun Tingxin, they saw that Yun Yige was their daughter, and their children's marriages were decided by their parents, but now Your Majesty. They can't say anything if they decide.

Yun Tingxin felt very satisfied when he heard the praise of Yun Yige in the imperial edict. She was indeed his daughter and could be so appreciated by His Majesty. However, the person who was granted the marriage was Pluto, which made him feel uncomfortable.

"Miss Yunsi, please accept the edict." Li Youcai spoke softly and handed the edict to Yun Yige.

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty." Yunyi Ge kowtowed and took the imperial edict. The edict felt heavy. An edict was destined to change her destiny, and tightly tied the rest of her life to Xuan Ming's.

After seeing off Eunuch Li, Mrs. Yun called Yun Yige to her yard, with Mrs. Song and Yunting Xin sitting on the other side.

"His Majesty granted marriage, did you know beforehand?" Mrs. Yun asked.

Yun Tingxin and Song shook their heads, and Yun Yige also shook his head.

"Pluto's health is not very good. To be honest, I don't know how many days there are left." Mrs. Yun covered her chest, feeling tight in her chest.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became cold and silent. On weekdays, Yun Mansion had little contact with Pluto except Concubine Shunren. Why did he fall in love with her daughter?

"Ge'er, if you don't want to, grandma will be willing to go to the palace for you even if she has such an old face."

Mrs. Yun sighed. She had been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child. She was her most beloved granddaughter.

Seeing the embarrassment of her grandmother and the sad faces of the elders in the family, Yun Yige rubbed the handkerchief in her hand and said softly: "Grandma, my granddaughter is willing."

After saying that, she blushed. She knew about Xuan Ming's body, but he wanted to keep it secret, so she couldn't make it clear: "Grandpa and grandma, don't worry, Pluto is a gentleman and a very good person."

Mrs. Yun and Mr. Yun looked at each other: "Just think about it."

On the other side, after Xuan Ming and King Rui parted ways, he immediately got on the carriage and headed to Yun Mansion.

After the imperial edict was issued, the elders must have had many doubts. As a junior, he should come to explain and express his sincerity.

"Your Majesty, are we going to go empty-handed?" Zhan Yue reminded hesitantly, how could the Prince, who had always planned everything, be so impulsive when it came to his own affairs?

Xuan Ming thought for a moment and ordered the carriage to turn around and go back to the palace. He was so anxious to go see Yunyige's elders that he actually forgot to discuss the matter with his mother and concubine. Marriage is a major event, the process is complicated, and human relationships are unpredictable. , need to be considered in the long term.

……

In the afternoon, Yun Tingxin and Mrs. Song were discussing Yun Yige's marriage in the house. Ms. Song hesitated to speak. Yuntingxin glanced at her: "I know what you want to say. This Pluto is not in good health. Do you want to marry him?" Is this marriage postponed?"

Seeing Mrs. Song's nod, Yunting Xin had a troubled look on his face: "Why don't I think that Pluto will follow the late emperor in the north and south, and protect the peace of Northern Chu? He is an excellent person, but if Ge'er is married, what if he is too old? You will soon be widowed..."

"But Ge'er is willing to marry her, and His Majesty has granted her the marriage. If the Yun Mansion refuses, she will be demoted, or her family will be confiscated." Mrs. Song's voice was muffled.

"What little girl in a boudoir wouldn't like a young hero like Pluto? Ge'er is still young and is well protected at home. How could she know the hardships and dangers of this world? If something unexpected happens to Pluto in the future, she will guard the empty Pluto alone. Man, how are you going to live like this?"

"Sir, Madam, the Yue family's carriage has arrived at the door of the mansion. Bachelor Yue is here." A servant came to report, interrupting the conversation between the two.

Yunting Xin couldn't remember who this person was for a moment, but he also ordered his servants to invite someone in quickly. Seeing the old face, he suddenly remembered that this person was Mr. Yuewen Zhengyue, who was once a bachelor of the palace. Although Now he is far away from the court, but the world still respects him as the Great Scholar of the Moon.

Yue Wen was a master in Northern Chu literary circles. He was rich in knowledge and authored many books. He had a great influence on the scholars of Northern Chu. It was a great honor to meet him.

His grandson Yue Yu is now serving as the young master of the eighth princess Xuan Wenduo in the palace.

"Master Yue, I didn't know that the bachelor was coming, so I should burn incense and purify my hands three days in advance."

With that said, Yunting Xin bowed respectfully to the old man opposite, changed out of his home clothes, tidied up his appearance and ordered someone to smoke sandalwood, and then sat down opposite Yue Wenzheng.
