I am Yuan Niaoniao
Chapter 10 Marriage Grant
"Miss Tan sent someone to deliver a message, Miss, saying that she wants to go to the palace with you tomorrow." Dongxue said while combing Yuan Niao Niao's hair.
"Hurry up and send someone to tell them that it's inconvenient for us." He didn't even bother to think of an excuse. He still wanted to take advantage of my family's reputation and step on me to get to the top like he did in his last life. Ha, I'm afraid you won't be satisfied this time.
"Yes, miss." Dongxue quickly told the maid at the door to reply.
After Dongxue finished removing her makeup, she took out the medicine book. She didn't know what would happen when she entered the palace this time, and she didn't know if it would be the same as in her previous life, so she had to be prepared. So she turned around and started to prepare the medicine.
The next morning, Yuan Xixi, dressed up, knocked on the door again: "Sister, are you ready? If you are, we will leave."
"Okay, okay," Dongxue opened the door, and Yuan Niaoniao, who had been dressed up, came out. In her previous life, Tan Xinhui deliberately tricked her into dressing up brightly and eye-catchingly, causing her to be gossiped about. In this life, she wanted to be low-key and did not want to stand out, so she only wore a lavender dress, a flying bun with a pearl headpiece, which was low-key yet prestigious. Moreover, Yuan Niaoniao's already beautiful face was like a newly blooming purple rose.
Yuan Xixi was still wearing a light yellow long skirt. She had her hair in a bun with daisy-shaped velvet flowers on both sides. She retained the innocence of a girl while still maintaining Yuan's beauty.
"Okay, let's go. Mother has been waiting for a long time." Yuan Niaoniao took Yuan Xixi's hand and walked together.
In the carriage, Bai Yue'e looked at her two daughters who were gradually growing up. Since ancient times, beauties have often had short lives. She frowned and was a little worried. Beauty is not necessarily a good thing. Being too dazzling will bring disaster. She was worried that they would be noticed by the royal children, and she was also worried that others would laugh at the children of the Yuan family for being ordinary. For a moment, it was really hard to tell whether it was good or bad. "You two must keep a low profile in everything later. Don't draw attention to yourself if you can. Do you understand?"
Hearing this, Yuan Niaoniao and Yuan Xixi both nodded. Today they all dressed in the most low-key way as the children of the Yuan family, so as not to lose face for the Yuan family while also not being too ostentatious.
We can only take things one step at a time. Master, please protect our daughter from being chosen by the royal family. We only hope that the two children grow up safely and marry into an ordinary family. Bai Yue'e sighed.
Yuan Niaoniao also thought so. She didn't want to live a life of open and secret struggles in the palace. She just wanted to live an ordinary life guarding the Yuan family.
"We're here, ma'am, miss, please get off." Ah Fu stopped the carriage steadily and was helped out one by one by the maids.
After showing the badge, he was taken to the banquet hall by the maid from the Queen's Palace.
After Yuan Niaoniao and her group sat down, the daughters and daughters of various families and the young masters also took their seats one after another and waited quietly. Because the seats were arranged according to the official positions of the families, Tan Xinhui sat at the back, a little far away from Yuan Niaoniao, and it was inconvenient to greet her. Yuan Niaoniao saw Tan Xinhui looking in her direction, and deliberately talked to Xixi pretending not to see her.
"The Queen has arrived..." As the eunuch's voice fell, Zhen Luoyi, dressed in elegant and luxurious clothes, walked to the center of the hall.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen. May Her Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years." Everyone stood up and saluted.
"Everyone, please sit down." Zhen Luoyi looked at the crowd in the audience with satisfaction, "Today is the Qiqiao Festival, so I specially held a banquet to invite all the young men and women to gather in the palace during this festival. I am also happy to feel the youthful vigor of you young people. This is a small palace banquet, everyone can treat it as a family banquet, don't be restrained."
"Thank you, Queen."
Zhen Luoyi nodded slightly, and the door was opened by two eunuchs. The singing and dancing troupe entered in an orderly manner and performed in the center of the venue.
Everyone was enjoying themselves with singing, dancing, wine and delicious food.
"His Royal Highness Prince Chen has arrived." After the eunuch who announced the event finished speaking, everyone was stunned. Prince Chen never attended such palace banquets, and he never showed up easily even when the emperor invited him, so very few people had seen him. What brought him here today? Even the Queen Zhen Luoyi was surprised: Could this guy be here to steal my Yi'er's bride?
"Greetings, Her Majesty." As soon as Chen Shaoyi came in, he saluted the Queen with an expressionless face. He only moved his mouth while his body remained standing straight.
Although Zhen Luoyi was unhappy, she could do nothing about it. "It turns out that the Prince of Chen is free today. I forgot to invite you to join him. Please take a seat."
Chen Shaoyi smiled and said, "I came here uninvited. I heard about the excitement and came to take a look." Then he sat down opposite Han Junyi. His status should be equal to Han Junyi. Han Haotian, who was sitting behind them, looked even darker.
"Is this His Royal Highness Prince Chen?"
"My God, I'm not saying he's ugly, look how good he looks when he smiles."
"The King of Chen can laugh? Isn't it said that he is as cold as an iceberg?"
Many people who saw Chen Shaoyi for the first time began to talk about it.
Zhen Luoyi glanced at Chen Shaoyi with a fake smile, and then signaled for the singing and dancing to continue. When the song was over, the singing girls and dancing girls slowly withdrew. Zhen Luoyi stood up and said, "I have something else to announce today. As you all know, I also want to announce that Prince Yi's marriage has been decided, and it is to Prime Minister Jin's daughter, Jingni."
Hearing this, Jin Jingni and Han Junyi stood up at the same time and walked to the center of the palace. Zhen Luoyi also walked down and took the two's hands, "The emperor has granted the marriage, but I thought it would be a good opportunity to announce it today. Everyone please join me in congratulating them."
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness Prince Yi, and congratulations to Miss Jin. May His Royal Highness Prince Yi and Miss Jin live happily ever after." Upon hearing this, everyone raised their glasses to congratulate.
"Thank you all. I announce here today that I will marry Miss Jin as my princess and swear to love and care for her wholeheartedly and stay with her through life and death." Han Junyi looked at Jin Jingni with a smile.
"I will also love His Highness Prince Yi with all my heart and stay with him through life and death." Jin Jingni smiled faintly, but her eyes were dim. She knew that Prince Yi would marry her only because of her father's support, not because he really liked her. And how could true love be possessed in the face of power? She had no choice and no way out. This was her destined fate.
Among the people in the hall, some sincerely wished them well, some understood what was going on, and some were jealous.
"Empress, now that my eldest brother's marriage is settled, I wonder if I can also ask for a concubine?" Han Haotian suddenly walked to the center of the hall and spoke.
Tan Xinhui was delighted when she heard this. Brother Haotian must be asking to marry me. Even though I am a concubine, I can still become the principal wife in the future with my own means.
The corners of Zhen Luoyi's mouth twitched.
"The Emperor has arrived......"
Although everyone was surprised when they heard this, they quickly stood up to greet him. "Your Highness, long live the emperor."
"No need to be polite." Han Junwu, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, strode into the hall. "I heard that Shao Yi was here, so I thought of coming over to see what kind of banquet attracted this guy who I couldn't even invite. Who knew that I would hear that you, Haotian, wanted to get married as soon as I arrived?" He sounded joking, but his eyes were staring at Han Haotian seriously. To marry a girl from a certain family is to say which side's power you want to gain for yourself.
Han Haotian glanced in the direction of Yuan Niao Niao and said again under pressure: "Father, I already have a girl in my heart. Now that my elder brother is about to get married, I can't wait to marry my beloved."
Accepting Han Haotian's gaze, Yuan Niao Niao couldn't help but be shocked. There was no way he had taken a fancy to me. Looking around, the only one with a status comparable to hers was Feng Feier. That was not good.
"Oh, really? Which girl is it?" Han Junwu asked calmly, but everyone heard the warning and silently wiped the sweat off Han Haotian's face.
"Your Majesty, I also ask to marry a princess," Chen Shaoyi, who had been silent since he came in, suddenly spoke.
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence. Everyone had different expressions and whispered.
"Hahahahaha, you two are really, funny." After a long silence, Han Junwu laughed out loud, "I came to the right place today. Tell me, do you like the girl from that family?"
Chen Shaoyi glanced at Han Haotian who was staring at Yuan Niaoniao, and spoke first: "I want to marry Yuan Niaoniao, the eldest daughter of the Yuan family."
What?! Yuan Niaoniao's eyes widened in surprise. Everyone was stunned, and Bai Yue'e stood up in shock.
Han Junwu also looked at Yuan Niao Niao after hearing this. He remembered seeing Yuan Zexi when she was still alive. She should have been 5,6 or years old at that time. Now she has grown into a graceful young lady. In the Yuan family, only the elderly Yuan Wuhe is left. He has also retired and can only be regarded as a paper tiger with an empty name. He has no son to succeed him. What kind of trouble can the two girls cause? Is it true or do they have other intentions? He narrowed his eyes and stared at Yuan Niao Niao and glanced at Chen Shaoyi.
"Today is a good day. I approve it." Han Junwu looked at the two of them with a smile, and immediately took a pen from the tray of paper and pen prepared by the eunuch on the side and wrote the imperial edict in a fluent manner: "I grant you two a marriage today. How about setting the wedding date on the same day as Jun Yi's wedding? Good things come in pairs." Han Junwu looked at the two of them with interest.
"Your Majesty, I accept the order." Chen Shaoyi stepped forward with satisfaction and took the imperial edict. In fact, when he came back today, he received news that Han Haotian wanted to take the opportunity to ask for an order to marry Yuan Niaoniao when the Queen granted him a marriage with Han Junyi. Although he didn't know when he had set his sights on the Yuan family, the situation was urgent and he had to act first.
"Where is Yuan Niaoniao?" Han Junwu asked when he saw Yuan Niaoniao still standing there motionless.
After recovering from the shock, Yuan Niaoniao quickly pulled Bai Yue'e to sit down, patted the back of her hand to reassure her, and then stood up to go out to receive the order.
"Your servant Yuan Niaoniao accepts your order."
"Okay! Hahahahahahaha"
Han Haotian's face was dark as he stared at Chen Shaoyi with resentment. Yes, he had originally wanted to marry Yuan Niaoniao because he knew that the Yuan family had connections with the Nian family, and he had found out that Yao Zun also seemed to have a connection with the Yuan family. But now he was intercepted by Chen Shaoyi, and he was furious.
"By the way, Haotian, which lady do you want to marry?" Han Junwu then looked at Han Haotian. He deliberately ignored Han Haotian. After all, he had seen all the little actions of Han Haotian. He wasn't dead yet, but he started to plot. Wasn't this an obvious provocation to him?
"Father, I would like to marry Miss Feng Fei'er." Knowing that Feng Fei'er had admired him for a long time, Han Haotian said confidently that exchanging the position of a concubine for the support of the Governor of Luocheng was a good deal.
"Oh?" Han Junwu's eyes gradually turned cold. "That's Feng Feier."
"I'm Feng Feier, the daughter of the Governor of Luocheng, paying my respects to His Majesty." When Feng Feier heard that Han Haotian wanted to marry her, she suppressed her joy and tried to stay calm as she stepped forward to pay her respects.
"You are Feng Fei'er," Han Junwu looked at Feng Fei'er coldly, "I didn't know that Governor Feng had such a pearl hidden. Hahahaha, well, since you and Haotian are in love with each other, I will agree to your marriage."
"Thank you, Father." "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"What?" Tan Xinhui was so excited when she heard that Han Haotian was not proposing to marry her that she wanted to stand up. Why was it Feng Feier? No matter how close she was to the prince, she would still be the prince's consort. What was going on? !
However, Han Haotian, who had guessed that something might happen to Tan Xinhui, had quietly sent someone behind her. Seeing that she was about to explode, the maid stepped forward to hold Tan Xinhui down and whispered in her ear, "The prince said that if he knew that Miss Tan was obedient, the prince's concubine would be yours. Today, he is only asking for a concubine."
After hearing this, Tan Xinhui calmed down a little, and her expression gradually eased. : I knew that Brother Haotian had me in his heart. I am just a concubine. When I enter the mansion, I still have to look at his face and let me bully me. Humph! But when did Prince Chen get involved with Yuan Niaoniao? If they did, they would get involved. Haotian will be the emperor in the future. What does a mere king of a different surname mean to him?
"Well, now that everyone has had their fill, you may want to go to the Imperial Garden to enjoy the flowers. Many new varieties of flowers have been introduced this year, and the blooming of all the flowers is so beautiful to see." Seeing that the banquet was almost over, Zhen Luoyi asked everyone to go to the Imperial Garden for a visit.
Everyone stood up and went forward. Bai Yue'e hadn't recovered yet, so she pulled Yuan Niao Niao and said, "What's going on? How did you know His Royal Highness Prince Chen?"
"It's a long story. Don't worry, I know what to do. I'll tell you in detail when we get back." Yuan Niaoniao was also confused. She wanted to find Chen Shaoyi to explain the sudden situation just now. Under the imperial power, she was powerless to refuse. Because behind her was the entire Yuan family, her every word and action involved the entire Yuan family. "Mom, you and Xixi go to the Imperial Garden first, I'll come find you later."
Yuan Niao Niao walked towards Chen Shaoyi in the crowd, walking with him not too far away: "What's going on? Explain it to me clearly."
Since the marriage, Chen Shaoyi's mouth has always been raised intentionally or unintentionally, and he can't suppress it, "I'm here to save you, you have to be grateful to me."
"Save me?" Yuan Nianyu looked at Chen Shaoyi in confusion.
"If I had come a little later, you would have been the prince's concubine." Chen Shaoyi lowered his voice and paused, "I can't accept that you want to marry someone else."
"What? How dare he think of him!" Just like in the previous life, he asked me to marry him as a concubine. Haha, he is the descendant of a general, and he wants me to be his concubine. How dare he! "How did you know?"
"Of course I have my own ideas."
"You," Yuan Niaoniao was speechless for a moment. That's right, since he could help her set up the trap without anyone noticing, how difficult would it be for him to find out information?
"From today on, Niaoniao will be on the same side as me." Chen Shaoyi almost couldn't hold back his expression when he thought about marrying Yuan Niaoniao as his wife. He bit his lips tightly to prevent himself from laughing.
"........" "I was born for revenge, and now I am tied to the King of Chen for no reason. With so many changes, could it be that the ending has begun to change? Yuan Niao Niao shook her head and didn't want to think about it. "Let's talk about it later."
Seeing that Yuan Niao Niao did not respond to his words, the smile on Chen Shaoyi's face disappeared. Did she look down on him? Or did she have someone else in her heart?
Han Junwu stared at the two people walking side by side without saying a word, and fell into deep thought. Why is it the Yuan family? I thought he would at least scramble for a family with a strong background, but I didn't expect him to choose the shaky Yuan family.
"Miss Yuan?" Jin Jingni had just seen the interaction between the two. Seeing Yuan Nianiao walking away alone, she stepped forward and called out tentatively.
Hearing the voice, he turned around and saw that it was Jin Jingni. "Miss Jin? Is there anything wrong?"
"Nothing, I just rarely saw you attend these palace banquets before, and today is the first time we meet. Hello, I'm Jin Jingni." Jin Jingni was very curious about the person Chen Shaoyi was going to marry. She didn't expect it to be the unknown Miss Yuan.
"Yuan Niaoniao." Although he didn't know what Jin Jingni's purpose was and hadn't yet detected her hostility, he still responded in a friendly manner.
"Can I ask how you met His Royal Highness the Prince of Chen?" Jin Jingni's voice trembled a little, but she tried her best to hold it back. That was the man she had admired since childhood, but the first time he showed up in public was to ask for someone else's hand in marriage. How could she not be jealous?
"We met by chance outside the city, got to know each other, and Prince Chen and I have long been in love with each other. That's why I proposed to you today." Yuan Niaoniao made it up without thinking. The matter was already settled, and many people would surely be curious about the relationship between her and Chen Shaoyi.
"Okay, I understand. So that's how it is. Please forgive me for asking so many questions." Jin Jingni lowered her head with a wry smile.
Chen Shaoyi, who originally wanted to catch up with Yuan Niao Niao to ask her about her feelings, followed behind them and heard their conversation. His brows were raised unconsciously. He slowed down his pace and decided to ask her next time.
Yuan Niaoniao looked at Jin Jingni without saying anything. Although she felt a little surprised that she would still care about her and Chen Shaoyi's affairs after being married to Prince Yi, she did not think much about it and bowed to her and walked away.
