The daily life of the little princess of the royal group
Chapter 204 A Little Sadness
The hardworking matchmaker Xiao Mingyue stayed with the Lin and Luo families at Jinding for one night before returning to Beijing, carrying with her Yue Jinshan's heavy expectations.
Mingyue looked at the letter Yue Jinshan gave her, and couldn't help but think of her mother who was far away in Minzhou, and her heart was filled with sorrow.
As soon as I entered the palace, the Empress Dowager asked me all kinds of questions.
"Oh, Miss Luo, I've heard a little bit about it."
"How are these young couple?"
"Are these two in-laws satisfied with each other?"
"No, I also want a gift. Aunt Xu, quickly go and get the pot of Dongzhu from the storeroom."
Before Mingyue found the chance to speak, the Queen Mother had already started talking a lot.
"Empress Dowager, you are too enthusiastic. After all, is this Miss Luo your granddaughter or me? Oh, if I had known that you liked her so much, I would not have bothered you." As she said this, she was about to cover her face with a handkerchief and burst into tears.
Zhao Duidui is online.
The Queen Mother's heart tightened subconsciously, and she hurried forward to comfort Mingyue, "Madam Xu, Madam Xu, no more, no more."
"My dear, you are my grandmother's treasure."
Mingyue raised her head, burst into laughter, and pouted, "Hehe, I knew that grandma loves me the most~"
The Queen Mother finally realized that the girl was just trying to make fun of her. She hugged Mingyue and laughed, "You little monkey, you scared me." She hugged Mingyue and rocked her, "Good child, you are my most beloved little darling."
Mingyue nestled in the empress dowager's soft and warm arms, and seemed to be able to feel a little bit of her mother's feelings. Her eyes turned red unconsciously, and she quickly buried her head in her neck and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Mingyue sat with the Queen Mother for a while, then returned to the palace to write a letter to Jiang Mengrou.
"Mother, there are many happy events today. Let me tell you about them one by one. My good friend Philip, whom I mentioned earlier, his wife, Li Niang, is pregnant..."
"There's one more important thing. Your sister Yunying, my aunt Yunying, is feeling amorous! Good things are coming. He's the manager of our Jinding, the leader of the group that accidentally took me away. Do you still remember him?"
"I think he's quite reliable and has had a few years of education. Aunt Yunying also seems to be interested. Enclosed is a letter of marriage proposal written by Yue Jinshan himself. If you agree, I will arrange the marriage between them next spring."
There was a line of small text at the end, "My daughter promises! I didn't read a single word! I really didn't peek!"
After Mingyue finished writing, she smiled, put it in an envelope, and sealed it with wax.
The previous New Year gifts had been sent to Minzhou by express horse, and I think they have received them by now. I don’t know when the letter Mingyue sent now will reach Jiang Mengrou.
It was snowing heavily outside and the north wind was howling. Zhizhi carefully put the envelope in her arms and handed it to the courier who was specially assigned to deliver letters to the emperor. They then rode their horses at full speed to various places carrying Jiang Hetang's imperial edict/confidential letter.
When she left, she didn't notice the puzzled looks of the messengers.
The young messenger looked at the letter in his hand as if it were a hot potato. "This...this...this...could it be...?"
"Ahem, let's ask the emperor before we take any action." A slightly older-looking messenger suggested.
The young messenger nodded. "That makes sense, that makes sense. I'll go then."
"Hey hey hey, let me go, let me go ~ Brother ~ give way to me ~ I haven't seen the emperor yet!" A figure appeared beside.
"I want to go too, I want to go too."
"I, I know the way. I'll go!"
Many busy messengers listened carefully and rushed forward, hoping to get the opportunity to see the emperor.
"Tsk, it's just a letter, why is it so serious?" A dark-looking messenger spoke, and this sarcastic voice attracted everyone's attention.
Just as everyone was looking at him hatefully, he quickly snatched the letter from the young messenger's hand with lightning speed, "Hahahahaha, it is indeed just a letter, but it was written by the young princess! I'm going to see the emperor on everyone's behalf!"
Everyone stared at that direction in a daze. There was clearly no sign of him, so why could they still hear his voice?
"Stinky boy!"
"Damn it, he got there first!"
……
The big guys in the palace have been very busy lately. One is busy with the seal, one is busy dealing with the annual gifts from the ministers, and one is busy meeting with the ladies of high rank...
Mingyue wanted to help, but didn't know where to start.
In the imperial study, looking at the mountains of "Annual Work Reports" from all over the Great Zhou, a feeling of suffocation suddenly came over me.
Mingyue was standing next to Yuan Tianzhen, watching her flipping through the gift lists of previous years, worrying about this year's gifts, and running to the warehouse from time to time to count them one by one. She couldn't bear to watch at all.
Her heart was bleeding with every gift she gave out. Should she give away such good things?
Yongshou Palace was even more boring. The topics of those ladies were nothing more than promoting their children and grandchildren, discussing family matters, and engaging in intrigue and deception from time to time. Mingyue was unable to accept it and had to run away from the palace.
A few days ago, after visiting Lin Siyu's house, let's go to Liu Guiren's house nearby today and have some fun. The main thing is to show up uninvited!
On the way out of the palace, I saw an old man standing at the street corner holding a lamb, seemingly about to sell it. The old man looked to be in his fifties, wearing a patched but neat jacket, with gray hair on his temples and a clear, yet sad, look in his eyes.
"Stop." Mingyue's voice came from the carriage.
The coachman moved immediately, and with a "whoosh" the carriage stopped.
Zhizhi and Taotao put a hood on Mingyue.
Few rich people would stop on this street, but this time, an exquisite carriage stopped.
The vendors around all looked over, curious about what kind of person would get off the carriage.
Mingyue got off the carriage at this moment. She didn't expect to be the center of attention. Noticing everyone's gazes, she adjusted her hood and walked up to the old man.
"Grandpa, how old is your sheep? Do you want to sell it?"
The clear and crisp voice of a child woke up the dazed old man, "Hey, hey, hey, yes, young nobleman, do you want to buy this sheep?"
Mingyue nodded. "How much silver do you need?"
After saying that, she wanted to touch the sheep's head, but was stopped by Zhizhi, who was afraid that the lamb would hurt Mingyue. But then she saw the lamb come forward and rub Mingyue's outstretched hand.
The fluffy touch and the warm feeling instantly captured Mingyue's heart.
"In reply to your question, my granddaughter found this sheep in the mountains and has been raising it ever since. It's healthy now, so the price is negotiable."
Mingyue was a little surprised when she heard this. "It sounds like your granddaughter really likes this little lamb?"
The old man nodded, his eyes showing even more sadness, "But, my family really can't make ends meet, and my granddaughter's life is almost in danger." As he said that, the old man held his head and cried bitterly.
