When the prince has the ability to read minds, he switches to the princess

Xirou told the old lady that she wanted to tell the Xi family about the happy event, so she wanted to go back.

Now that the marriage has been decided, there is no need to hold back.

"You go ahead."

Xirou leaves.

When Nie knew that the imperial edict had come down, she was only worried about one thing, and that was how to get the dowry?

She was originally bought by the Marquis at a huge price. Now that the royal family has given her a marriage, is it possible that the family will also need to pay a dowry?

This is simply a losing business.

Mrs. Nie didn't want to. The money in the house was in her own hands and she would never give it to an outsider, so she went to find the old lady.

The old lady was about to rest. When she heard that she was coming, she asked someone to let her in.

Nie came in and said straight to the point:

"Mom, after all, the second girl is not a girl from our family, and she has even discussed marriage with our eldest son before. It doesn't matter that we care about her getting married now."

Seeing her daughter-in-law's shallow eyes, the old lady guessed early on that she would make trouble because of this.

"You don't want to pay for the dowry?"

Nie replied: "Mother, should we pay for this money?"

"When the imperial edict comes to our house, it is natural that it should be issued."

"What came to our house? She obviously got it by herself? She wants us to make a wedding dress with her. This is a money-losing deal. My daughter-in-law doesn't think it's appropriate."

The old lady was too lazy to deal with her, so she found an excuse and said:

"I will discuss this matter with the Marquis. You can go back first."

"Yes."

After Mr. Nie left, the old lady sighed.

Aunt Qiu came forward to serve tea and asked with concern: "The old lady is worried about the second girl's marriage."

"Hey, after all, we are not biological. Some things are not good if you do them well, and even worse if you don't do them well."

"What's the point? It's just a wedding."

· "What should we do if it's a girl in the house? How well should we handle it? It's all our Marquis's business. But the eldest girl of the Fang family is not a biological child. If we handle it well, others will say we are flattering. If we handle it poorly, Others say that we are arrogant and look down on the royal family."

· Listening to this, Aunt Qiu actually felt that it was something like that, and it was really difficult to handle.

· But difficult things still need to be done. How to do it requires someone to come up with regulations.

· Aunt Qiu knows her master well. She smiled and said:

· "The old lady is ready to do it, but what about the second lady?"

· "She only worries about the money in her hands."

· Aunt Qiu explained: "After all, Miss Fang is not from our family. Although the Marquis values ​​her, her status is always embarrassing."

· The old lady thought for a while and said:

· "You will ask Mr. Hou to come over later. I have something to say to Mr. Hou."

"Yes."

Dingyuan Hou heard that the old lady had invited her, so he went over.

What should the Marquis do when he hears the old lady mentioning marriage?

The Marquis said: "Mother, this is a prince marrying a concubine, not just anyone. Someone from the etiquette department will handle it."

· "What about the dowry? Does the Marquis have any plans?"

· "It turns out that you are worried about money, so there is no need to worry about it. Someone has prepared Miss Fang's dowry."

· "who is it?"

· "Who else can it be? Whoever wants to marry will be prepared."

· "Prince Shen? Is this okay?"

· Dingyuanhou doesn’t feel bad.

· "When I brought someone into the house, although I had my own selfish motives and wanted to keep him for Fengfei, Prince Shen interfered."

Dingyuan Hou felt it was a pity.

"Originally I was not optimistic about the two of them. Prince Shen is unruly and unpredictable. Now he brings the matter to the attention of the emperor and makes plans for her. It can be regarded as his infatuation, so I will help them."

"Why does the Marquis value that girl so much? She has been living in our house these days. Although she has some plans, I can't see what's good about her. She deserves such praise from the Marquis."

"Mother, Prince Shen has a keen eye for pearls."

The old lady didn't notice it because you have bad eyesight.

The old lady didn't argue with her son, she just said: "Now that you have a plan, just do what you said."

Xi Rou returned to the Xi family and told Xi Min that she was going to marry into Prince Shenjun's palace.

Xi Ming seemed to have expected it.

"Have you thought about it?"

Fang Xirou nodded.

"Prince Shen fought fiercely with eleven Xixia warriors for me, just to get the emperor to grant me a marriage. This move really touched me." He comforted my grandfather.

She thought to herself: People are showing off everywhere, so I have to follow them.

"If I were still the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, it would be reasonable to marry her as a concubine. Now that my father is the magistrate of Qipin County, I would be much more reluctant to be his concubine."

Xi Ming felt that Xirou's words were a bit self-degrading, and he said angrily:

"Why force it? It's his blessing that my niece can marry him."

Fang Xirou also nodded after hearing this.

"That is, even if I don't have a father, I, Fang Xirou, can still gain a foothold in this capital."

Xi Ming nodded in agreement.

After a while, Xilin and Xishui came back. They heard that their cousin was willing to get married.

One was worried, while the other was bursting with gratitude.

"Cousin, I'm glad you finally figured it out. My cousin will call you Princess Princess when he sees you in the future."

"She is the princess of the county."

"Ah, didn't it say that the prince of the county fought fiercely with the eleven warriors and vowed that you would become her concubine?"

Xi Rou looked at her eldest cousin Xilin. When she came back today, she actually had something to explain to her cousin.

Xilin said: "I heard from Yi Jia that Princess Xixia had a hand in it."

"What does it have to do with him?"

"When Princess Xixia saw the bravery of Prince Shen, she fell in love with him. This is understandable."

Xishui complained: "This man is really annoying. Prince Shen is just one step away from him."

She secretly glanced at her cousin and thought to herself: My cousin won't do something wrong again.

He said timidly: "The concubine is pretty good, too."

Seeing that his cousin didn't say anything, Xilin said, "It's time for us to prepare a dowry for our cousin."

Xi Ming also murmured: This is a happy event.

But when she heard that he was going to marry from the Hou Mansion, Xi Min was stunned at first.

"The Marquis Mansion has helped you so much, it's up to us to prepare the dowry."

Xilin said: "Grandpa, Prince Shen has already prepared the dowry."

Xi Ming was puzzled: "What is ready? We haven't agreed yet, so what is he ready for?"

Xirou is also strange.

"Grandpa, Prince Shen actually started doing business many years ago. He has money in his hands."

After hearing this, Xirou frowned inexplicably.

She thought of his smuggling matter. Since she decided to marry him, she still had to take care of the smuggling matter.

After dinner, Xirou made an appointment to meet in Xilin's study.

Xilin knew that his cousin had something to give him, so he ordered someone to guard outside.

Xirou went in and said straight to the point: "Cousin, can you help me with something?"

"I don't want Zhu Gaoyong to marry Tuoba Nuying as his concubine, so I want you to help me spread a rumor. Let's just say that Tuoba Nuying's horoscope is "fire", which is a precious destiny."

"What do you mean, cousin?"

"She likes Zhu Gaoyong, but other people in the palace don't like her."

Xilin understood.
