Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 199

The marriage negotiation process couldn't have been smoother, and both parties were very happy.

When Tang Chujun left Wei Mansion, Wei Zhongshi and his wife went straight to the gate.

Mrs. Wei and Tang Chujun stood under the eaves, saying goodbye one after another, three times, four times, five times, four times, five times, while chatting in a daze while the cold wind blew for most of an hour.

The two met so late that they had endless things to say.

According to the customs of the North Wing Country, if the man uses the "three matchmakers", he will either be from a lower-class family seeking to marry a high-class family, or both the man and woman will have very prominent family backgrounds.

It is unique for the Hou Mansion to bring three top matchmakers to marry the daughter of a sixth-grade official.

Soon, most of the powerful circles in the capital knew the news.

Especially the wives who had attended the legitimate son's banquet and met Shi Yunqi himself, all sighed with regret.

But the sigh at this time was just a sigh. After all, the impression Shi Yunqi gave in Beijing was nothing more than a poor legitimate son who had been replaced.

This incident didn't create much controversy. At most, it was a discussion about Tang Chujun, a mother who doted on her son too much because she wanted to compensate her son.

She was probably afraid that the woman's family background would be too prominent, which would make her son unable to hold his head up, so he found a low-income family.

The leading role in the Hou Mansion now is Shi Chengyi's lineage. No matter how unsatisfactory the second room is, it can no longer affect the trend of the Hou Mansion.

Therefore, the news of the marriage between the Hou Mansion and the Wei family quickly disappeared like a small splash of water. It was really because the story about His Highness the King of Jin and a big black dog the day before was so exciting that everyone rushed to tell the story.

But just this inconspicuous little splash caused quite a stir in Prince Jin's Mansion.

Xiao Sheng was embarrassed last night. He was carried by his father to kneel outside the imperial study for half the night, and was then grounded for three months.

The staff hurriedly came to the house.

Staff A reported the shocking news that the destined girl Wei had successfully negotiated a marriage with the eldest grandson of the Marquis of Jian'an.

Xiao Sheng was upset because everything was not going well. He walked around the room, wondering if there was any way to get involved.

But he had offended his father last night, so he really couldn't act rashly.

Staff A then said, "His Royal Highness, King Jin, this matter seems weird no matter how you look at it."

Xiao Sheng was puzzled, "What kind of weird method?"

"Your Highness, think about it. Just yesterday you said you wanted to marry this Miss Wei, and today she is engaged. Isn't it strange?"

Xiao Sheng nodded involuntarily.

Staff A added, "One more thing. I went to Baoguo Temple yesterday. When I entered the mountain gate, weren't there ninety-nine steps that I had to walk?"

"so what?"

"I don't remember it very clearly, but in my impression, there seems to be that big black dog among the crowd of people standing at the foot of the stairs waiting for you to go first."

"what?"

"Even... there's that charcoal seller."

Xiao Sheng asked, "Can you see clearly?"

Staff A hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "I asked other colleagues, and they also had vague memories. They said they seemed to have it, but they seemed not to have it. But my subordinates really felt that even if there was no charcoal seller at that time, there should be a big black one. dog."

Xiao Sheng felt a sense of irritation in his heart. There were only a handful of people who had been to Baoguo Temple yesterday. He said solemnly, "Go and check."

Staff A turned around to leave, but was stopped by King Jin again.

"Go and see if the eldest grandson of the Marquis of Jian'an Mansion is a charcoal seller." Xiao Sheng ordered.

He was so angry that his brain almost exploded. If the charcoal seller was the eldest son of the Hou family, then who was the old woman who encouraged him to solve lantern riddles?

That was clearly a trap set for him!

After a while, Staff B came to report again, saying that Liu Hanlin, the director of the Imperial Guard Department, had suspended all duties due to physical illness and requested to rest at home.

Before the last news had time to be digested, the news from Staff C came again, "I heard that Miss Liu was sent back to her hometown in Quzhou overnight. She just left the city right now."

Prince Jin fell on the bed with his head down, "It's over, it's over, father has already found out that Liu Jingyu was responsible..."
