After the marriage, the abstinent prince turned me on
Chapter 16: Let's Set a Wedding Date
"Get something? What could be more important than your daughter's wedding?!" Xie Wenyao slammed the medical book aside, his anger growing even stronger. "Why go now, not earlier or later? What's wrong with you?!"
Shen bit her lip and muttered to herself, what if I go too late and this medical book is auctioned off?
But she didn't dare to refute Xie Wenyao.
Xie Wenyao snorted coldly and walked away.
Shen looked at Xie Wenyao's back, and a hint of resentment flashed in her eyes.
She turned around and met Xie Mishuang's half-smile.
"Thank you, mother, for helping me retrieve my mother's medical books and dowry." Xie Mishuang said sarcastically, his tone full of ridicule.
Looking at Xie Mishuang's expression, Shen cursed inwardly, "Bitch!" This medical book cost her 50,000 taels of silver, and with the other dowry, it was a full 150,000 taels.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, but she could only suppress her anger. One day, she would make this bitch pay the same price as her mother.
Just then, there was a sudden noise outside the mansion.
"The Queen has arrived——"
Xie Wenyao hurriedly led everyone in the mansion out to greet them.
I saw a magnificent golden phoenix chariot slowly driving into Xie's mansion, surrounded by a crowd of people.
The phoenix chariot stopped, and a graceful and elegant woman wearing a phoenix robe and a phoenix crown on her head walked down the chariot slowly with the help of palace maids.
It is the current queen.
"Your servant Xie Wenyao, along with everyone in the Xie family, respectfully welcomes the Empress. May Her Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years!" Xie Wenyao led everyone, knelt on the ground, and shouted loudly.
The Queen Mother majestically glanced at everyone in the Xie family and finally looked at Shen. She had asked people to investigate some of Shuang'er's mother's past in the palace in the past few days. Her death was strange, and it should be Shen who was responsible.
Poor Shuang'er may not know about this yet, so let her punish Shen.
Shen felt the Queen's sharp gaze and thought that the Queen had found out about the dowry, and she was so scared that cold sweat broke out on her back.
Xie Wenyao and others knelt for a long time, and seeing that the queen did not let them stand up, they did not dare to stand up.
"Shuang'er, come here." The Queen waved her hand, signaling Xie Mishuang to come forward.
Xie Mishuang stepped forward, and the Queen Mother took Xie Mishuang's hand affectionately, looking at her lovingly as if she were her own daughter.
"Empress." Xie Mishuang bowed falsely, looking well-behaved. The more the Empress looked at her, the more she liked him.
The Empress ignored the kneeling members of the Xie family, took Xie Mishuang's hand, and said lovingly, "Shuang'er, I came here today to bring you good news."
Xie Mishuang smiled slightly and asked respectfully, "I wonder what good news it is that has the Empress coming here in person?"
The Empress patted Xie Mishuang's hand and said with a smile, "The Emperor has already issued an edict granting the marriage, and the wedding date is set for the day after tomorrow. Do you think it's a bit hasty?"
When these words were spoken, Xie Wenyao and Shen were both shocked.
They even asked Xie Mishuang for her opinion on the wedding date, which shows how much the royal family values the Xie family!
Xie Wenyao was secretly delighted and quickly answered for Xie Mishuang: "It's not hasty, it's not hasty. The emperor has granted us a marriage, so how could it be hasty?"
Upon hearing this, the Empress's eyes darkened. She glanced at Xie Wenyao coldly and said, "I'm asking Shuang'er, why are you butting in?"
Xie Wenyao immediately broke out in a cold sweat and quickly lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.
Shen felt so upset that she felt like the glory today should have belonged to her daughter Xie Chuxue.
It’s all the fault of that bitch Xie Mishuang!
She must have seduced Xue'er into losing her mind, so she chose to marry the Fifth Prince!
Xie Mishuang said softly, "Your Majesty, I'm not in a hurry. Everything is up to you, Your Majesty."
The Queen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, then I will propose marriage today!"
"Someone, bring this palace in!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a group of palace servants carrying more than twenty large red-painted boxes with gold patterns into Xie's mansion.
Everyone in the Xie family was staring with wide eyes, especially Shen, who felt that with these betrothal gifts, all the money she spent today could be recovered.
In an instant, Shen's heart was filled with joy.
The Queen looked at the greedy eyes of the crowd and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"These are the betrothal gifts for Shuang'er alone. No one else can covet them."
After hearing this, Shen no longer remained calm.
She quickly stood up and said, "Empress, this is against the rules!"
"Dowry is usually given to the bride's parents. How can it be given to the bride alone?"
The Empress looked at Shen coldly and said, "When is it your turn to have an opinion on what I do?"
Shen's heart trembled, but she still smiled shamelessly and said, "Your Majesty, that's right, that's right."
The Empress ignored Shen's flattery and said, "But don't worry, there are also gifts for you." Then she ordered directly, "Come here, bring it in."
Shen stared behind the palace maid with anticipation, as if she saw the white silver waving at her.
However, the palace maid brought in a box that didn't look very heavy.
Shen's smile froze on her face and her eyes widened in disbelief.
Xie Mishuang looked at Shen's deflated expression and couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
I didn’t expect that the Queen Mother is quite capable. She likes this mother-in-law. She is much better than the one in her previous life.
The Empress looked at Xie Mishuang's sweet smile, her eyes full of love. She turned to Xie Wenyao and instructed, "Shuang'er's wedding must be even more festive than the decorations in the mansion today. Do you understand?"
"Yes, yes, your Majesty, don't worry, I will definitely see to it." Xie Wenyao responded quickly with a nod and a bow.
"Also," the Empress paused, then continued in an unquestionable tone, "Shuang'er doesn't have to thank the mistress when she gets married. This is my imperial decree."
Shen's face froze visibly. This was a slap in her face.
"Your Majesty, I obey your order." Xie Wenyao was also shocked by the Queen's majesty and responded quickly.
The Queen nodded with satisfaction. Before leaving, she ordered several palace maids to stay and serve Xie Mishuang, two of whom had martial arts skills.
Xie Mishuang was touched and truly felt the mother's love from the queen.
It was late at night and Xie Mishuang was lying in bed, but she had no desire to sleep.
She unconsciously picked up the medical book that Shen gave her, opened it, and found that the signature was indeed the legendary Mr. Li.
Xie Mishuang was shocked and quickly opened the medical book to study it carefully.
She found that this medical book was full of mysteries and contained many folk prescriptions, which were very similar to many of the contents recorded in her grandmother's handwritten medical book.
Xie Mishuang's maternal grandfather's family has been practicing medicine for generations, and her mother was also a famous doctor. Unfortunately, she died when she was very young, and the medical skills were lost.
Xie Mishuang has always wanted to make up for this regret. Now that she has this medical book, hope has ignited in her heart.
She wanted to study medicine, then open a clinic in the capital, practice medicine and fulfill her mother's unfulfilled wish.
