Chapter 39: The Dark Prince vs. the Delicate and Soft Child (13)
Although the two had made their feelings clear last time, Jiang Zheng had long guessed that the other party would propose marriage, but she didn't expect it to happen so early.
Arriving at the main hall, Jiang Zheng looked up and saw a lady with a kind face sitting in the upper hall, accompanied by her mother.
"Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess. Long live Her Royal Highness."
This person is Su Zhao's mother, the wife of Marquis Jingyuan, the only sister of the current emperor, and the Princess of Jinyang.
The two families have always been on good terms, and Princess Jinyang has watched Jiang Zheng grow up since she was a child. Now that the two families are planning to marry, she is even more delighted. She quickly pulled Jiang Zheng's hand and put the jade bracelet on her wrist on Jiang Zheng's wrist. "Could it be that I come too little and Zheng'er is alienated from me? Why don't you even call me aunt?"
Jiang's mother knew that Princess Jinyang was joking, so she also teased, "It's not difficult to call her aunt, but do you really want to hear Zheng'er call you aunt instead of anything else?"
Jiang's mother and Princess Jinyang have a very good relationship and often tease each other.
"You are amazing!" Princess Jinyang raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Jiang Zheng with increasing satisfaction. "If you give in today, I will ask Zheng to change her mind tomorrow. It all depends on whether you are willing or not."
Su Zhao and Jiang Zheng grew up together, and Princess Jinyang had long regarded Jiang Zheng as her future daughter-in-law.
If the Fu family hadn't interfered, her son would have waited in vain for four years.
"Let's ask Zheng'er." Jiang's mother respects her children very much and does not believe in following the parents' orders. Instead, she pays more attention to Jiang Zheng's attitude.
Jiang Zheng blushed slightly, pursed her lips, lowered her eyebrows and said respectfully: "My daughter listens to my father and mother."
Although it was stated explicitly, it was also tacitly acknowledged.
Princess Jinyang was immediately delighted, her eyes curved, and she patted Jiang Zheng's hand with satisfaction, saying "good!" three times in a row.
Seeing that her daughter was willing, Jiang's mother was also satisfied with Su Zhao's character, and both of them were very happy.
The Duke of Ningguo and the Marquis of Jingyuan were discussing in the front, while the Duke's wife and the Princess of Jinyang were also discussing engagement matters in the back. The only idle person, Jiang Zheng, was sent to the back garden by her mother.
As soon as Jiang Zheng walked in, she knew what Jiang's mother meant. She saw a familiar figure faintly visible among the branches.
"I thought you weren't here."
Su Zhao turned around with a familiar nonchalant smile on his lips, "I was here a long time ago, but your brother caught me to test my martial arts."
Jiang Yuan is a sister-con. When he heard about Su Zhao's marriage proposal, he dragged him to the martial arts arena. A group of people took turns to fight, and Su Zhao managed to escape with great difficulty.
Jiang Zheng led people to a pavilion nearby.
Su Zhao picked a flower and pinned it in Jiang Zheng's hair, "You'll look better with your hair down."
"Then I will wear it every day from now on?" Jiang Zheng responded nonchalantly.
"That won't work! What if someone takes a fancy to you when you go out on the street in the future?" Su Zhao said, "I will tie your hair for you when you go out next time."
According to the imperial law, women can let their hair down before they get married, but they must wear their hair in a bun once they become married.
Su Zhao felt uncomfortable every time he saw Jiang Zheng, the general's wife, with her long hair tied up. But if she tied her hair up for him, it was pleasing to the eye.
Jiang Zheng suddenly paused, hesitated for a few moments and suddenly asked: "Why...are you in such a hurry?"
It had only been a month since her divorce, but Su Zhao had already asked Marquis Jingyuan and the eldest princess to come over to get engaged. It was a bit too hasty.
"It's been a month!" Su Zhao emphasized, "You should be thankful that I didn't ask for marriage on the day of the divorce."
Su Zhao did think about it, but was beaten by Princess Jinyang.
The eldest princess's original words were: Even if he has no shame, he still has to consider Jiang Zheng's reputation.
Su Zhao endured it for a whole month.
Jiang Zheng covered her lips and chuckled, "I won't run away."
"I'm not afraid that you will run away, but I'm afraid that people with ulterior motives will harass you." Su Zhao's words seemed to have a hidden meaning.
Fu Zi Han lost the support of Duke Ningguo and had a hard time in the court. It was heard that he wanted to go to the Duke's Mansion to apologize so as to reconcile with Jiang Zheng.
When Su Zhao heard about this, he exploded on the spot. He quickly asked his parents to come to the Duke's Mansion and added fuel to the fire by betrothing Princess Ning'an to Fu Zihan. Only then did he feel at ease.
"Besides, I have prepared a satisfactory betrothal gift for you, you have to marry me." Su Zhao took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Jiang Zheng.
Jiang Zheng took it curiously, looked at it for a while, and widened her eyes in shock, "Is this true?"
The child written on the paper was not Fu Zihan's, but the illegitimate child between her and one of Fu Zihan's cousins.
"Of course it's true." Su Zhao didn't forget Huang Hui'er's aggressive pressure on Jiang Zheng in the Golden Palace that day. "In fact, the baby in the concubine's belly has been more than four months old. The doctor who examined her was bribed by her to say that it was less than three months. When she was about to give birth, she naturally couldn't hide it."
"Not entirely." Although Jiang Zheng had only met Huang Hui'er a few times, she could tell that she was a ruthless person. "Maybe she has a way to get away with it."
"What method?"
Jiang Zheng put the paper away and said slowly, "There are so many accidents in this world. Who knows, one day she might fall and give birth prematurely. The two people in the Fu family who are not clear-headed probably can't even think of the trick."
Su Zhao smiled, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Jiang Zheng, "Will you let her get away with it so easily?"
"Of course not!" Whether for her original body or for herself, Jiang Zheng would not let the Fu family live in peace. "Don't worry, there are still many days. When Huang Hui'er is about to give birth, Princess Ning'an will also be able to marry, right?"
"From what my uncle said, it's about that time."
The affair between Princess Ning'an and Fu Zihan was widely spread in the imperial city. The current emperor originally wanted to suppress the matter and then marry Princess Ning'an to a poor scholar in a few years.
Unexpectedly, the Queen and the Crown Prince were determined to win over Fu Zihan, and they impatiently asked the Emperor for help. The Emperor gave up the idea after a few words of persuasion and let them do as they pleased.
"That's right, I'm happy to watch a dog-eat-dog drama."
Princess Ning'an has a hot-tempered and cruel personality, and Huang Hui'er is not someone who is easy to deal with either. With these two together, the general's mansion will probably be much more lively in the future.
"Don't worry about them, they are making trouble." Su Zhao suddenly grabbed Jiang Zheng's hand. Jiang Zheng tried to break free but failed so she gave up. "Zheng'er, I will come to propose tomorrow. We will get married at the end of next month, okay?"
"So soon?" Su Zhao's sudden appearance to get engaged had caught everyone off guard. Who would have thought that he actually wanted to get married next month? "The wedding is complicated and there's no time to prepare."
Unlike the royal family, which entirely handed it over to the Ministry of Rites, Jiang Zheng had to embroider the wedding dress herself.
"I can't wait." Princess Jinyang knew her son's idea, so she asked someone to choose a few auspicious dates. The nearest one is the end of next month, and the next one is four months later. Su Zhao definitely can't wait that long. "I'll take care of the wedding. If you don't want to embroider the wedding dress, I'll ask the best embroiderer to do it. You just need to prepare yourself."
Su Zhao pulled Jiang Zheng's hand over and put it on his cheek, and said in a muffled voice: "Zheng, will you marry me soon?"
