"This is the marriage of His Highness Chen. The emperor specifically instructed to be grand and not to be wronged by His Highness Chen, right?" Princess Li curled her lips and smiled generously, as if she did not dare to take credit.

To the grandma's ears, this is because Princess Li is eager to separate himself from King Chen.

The princess meant that if the emperor had not asked her to come to Xiaoding, she would never have come.

The grandma still smiled and quickly asked Princess Li and Mr. Liu to sit down, and her heart became heavier: Everyone knows that the emperor does not really value King Chen so much. The more serious the emperor is now, the more merciless he will be when he settles it in the future...

The lady is a little distracted.

Immediately afterwards, Princess Li pulled Chu Qianchen to praise the polite words "A man is beautiful, and a man is a perfect match." The female family in the Hou's house also smiled and agreed, saying "The lover is natural", "The emperor's kindness is vast", etc. At first glance, the host and guests are happy.

The little rituals are carried out in an orderly manner, and each step follows the ancient rituals, which are extremely particular and solemn.

Shen was very satisfied with this. Everything here was compared with the legitimate daughter.

The gift she took out made Prince Li frightened. For example, the first box of the four treasures in the study are all fine products, including the brush washing, inkstone dripping, paperweight, etc., which are all antiques of the previous dynasty; the second box is a complete set of official kiln blue and white porcelain porcelain; the third box is a full box of cloud brocade. You must know that inch of brocade is a tribute, and most people cannot ask for it...

Every box of gifts prepared by the woman was exhausted, making Princess Li almost suspected that Shen was preparing for the marriage for her daughter.

One hour later, after completing the Yicheng of Xiao Dingli, Princess Li and Minister Liu said goodbye, and Shen, Liu and several younger siblings personally sent them away.

In the main hall, only the Grandma in the upper head and Chu Qianchen in the lower head were left.

As soon as Princess Li and the others walked away, the lady changed her face, and the smile on the corner of her mouth disappeared without a trace.

There was silent around.

The servants felt the cold atmosphere and stared at the tip of their shoes.

The lady slowly drank tea and asked lukewarmly: "Sister Chen, how have you learned the rules from Madam Yan recently?"

"Grandma, Madam Yan teaches her well." Chu Qianchen replied obediently.

Amber also lowered her head and said in her heart: It was the girl who taught Aunt Yan very well!

The day before yesterday, Madam Yan was making trouble and shouting. In the past two days, she has been in the house every day and has never dared to make trouble. She is so peaceful that she is simply mute.

That is, when the old lady went to deliver meals every day, Madam Yan politely expressed her desire to see her girl, and Amber also conveyed it to Chu Qianchen, but Chu Qianchen said: "Let her go first, there will be time for her to appear."

The lady looked up and down at Chu Qianchen. Her gentle and gentle expression was completely different from the arrogant and flying look she had in the village a few days ago.

The lady thought that it was Madam Yan who taught Chu Qianchen a lesson. She breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: The nanny who came out of the palace had indeed had a good idea of ​​training people! In just a few days, the effect was immediately effective.

The lady took another sip of tea and admonished righteously: "Sister Chen, Madam Yan was given by the Empress Dowager. You must learn the rules with Madam Yan. Listen to Madam Yan, don't let the Madam down's wishes."

"You are about to get married. You must learn all the rules and etiquette well in order not to fall into the reputation of the Chu girl!"

The lady said it was so impressive, but in fact she had her own calculations in her heart.

After the birthday party, she followed her eldest son Chu Lingxiao to discuss several times.

They all agreed that it was obvious that the emperor wished that King Chen would die sooner, and it was beyond doubt that the emperor gave the concubine daughter of Chu Qianchen, a low-ranking marquis, to King Chen, just to humiliate him. Therefore, their Marquis' Mansion must not disobey the will of the holy people and cannot ruin the emperor's good deeds.

Although marrying Chu Qianchen will make the Hou Mansion and the Chen Prince's Mansion become in-laws, there will inevitably be more unstable factors. Even one day, the emperor may be angry and liquidated. However, the Chu family is not such a poor family without foundation. The Chu family also has a noble concubine and a second prince in the palace!

In contrast, the relationship between the Chu family and the emperor was obviously closer, which meant that the Chu family would always be a firm royalist party.

As the eldest son said, since this marriage is unchangeable, they might as well look at it from a better perspective.

For example, as long as they teach Chu Qianchen well and teach him well, they can let Chu Qianchen convey some news about the Chen Prince's Mansion, and the Chu family can use it to respect the emperor's loyalty.

Thinking of the story, the corners of the lady's mouth were raised and then returned to her original position, still graceful, noble and dignified.

Chu Qianchen nodded obediently and silently.

She didn't listen to what the lady said later, and her thoughts had already floated to something else. She thought: I delayed all morning because of the small precepts. When I go back, she has to step up. Dazaozhu has reached the most important step. If she simmered it in the evening, she should be able to prepare it tomorrow night!

The lady felt that Chu Qianchen was obviously much more rules than before, and she was quite satisfied. She thought that since Madam Yan had a sing of black face, she should sing a sing of white face and use both soft and hard to completely grasp Chu Qianchen.

Next, the lady softened her voice again and said, "One prospers and ones prosper, ones disgrace, ones disgrace, sister Chen, grandmother is for your own good and will not harm you."

"After you get married, you will naturally know that life in this boudoir is the best, and you will also understand my hard work and your father."

"Whether this married daughter can live a good life in her husband's family after she gets married, it depends on whether her parents' family is capable."

The grandma said this with all her lips and tongue to coax Chu Qianchen to the Chu family.

For this reason, the Grandma could only give up her 30,000 taels of silver and just use it as the money to coax Chu Qianchen. Whenever she thinks of this silver, the Grandma still feels like a knife.

The lady said absent-mindedly, and no matter what she said, Chu Qianchen just nodded obediently.

Gradually, the lady became too exhausted and she felt more and more boring.

Chu Qianchen is not her beloved granddaughter, and the lady can't say much considerate words to her, and...

The lady looked at Chu Qianchen with disgust and said to herself: This girl's temperament is really not likable, she just nodded, and she couldn't even say a word for a long time. She couldn't even say something pleasing to the eye. She was incomparable to Sister Huang!

Amber next to him knew it very well, and his girl's heart probably had no idea where she had flew.

Amber glanced at the lady with an inexplicable look and then withdrew her gaze.

The lady was upset when she looked at Chu Qianchen and was about to send her off. At this moment, a little maid hurriedly came here and reported, "Madam Qiu, Madam Qiu from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, is here... She said she was here to measure the system of wedding dress for the second girl."

The lady was a little surprised and stunned.

Today is just a small gift. As usual, the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to tailor the wedding dress for the bride after the man officially made a betrothal gift. However, the wedding date was too urgent. Now it is only twenty days before the wedding date, so the wedding dress must be made earlier.

After a while, another maid brought an old lady in her fifties and a purple-colored man with two palace maids here.

Madam Qiu looked at her kind-eyed and kind-hearted face. Even if she didn't speak on her round face, she seemed to be laughing, which was so nice to watch.

As soon as she entered the door, she saluted the two of them first, and then said, "I was ordered to tailor my wife for Miss Chu Er."

The grandma asked Madam Qiu to take Chu Qianchen to Wanyan Courtyard to tailor her.

The two palace maids who really set up their hands to Chu Qianchen were both cautious and trepidated, and they spoke respectfully: "Miss Chu, I will set you up for you, please stand upright first."

The two palace maids quickly measured Chu Qianchen's length and shoulder width and wrote them down one by one.

Madam Qiu was watching from the side, with a straight posture.

Her eyes casually glanced around and asked casually: "Huh? I heard that the Empress Dowager sent Aunt Yan to the Hou's Mansion, why didn't she see her?"

The object of her question was Amber.

Amber said calmly: "Madam Yan is busy." She said vaguely.

"The Empress Dowager ordered her to come to the Marquis' Mansion to 'serve' Miss Chu Er to lift her up. How could she hide from her lazy?" Madam Qiu frowned slightly, thinking that Madam Yan was too inappropriate. Even if Chu Qianchen was easy to fool, she could not relax so much!

Amber said with a smile, "Madam Qiu said yes." She casually called a little maid with round face and ordered, "Agate, go and call Madam Yan."

The agate responded brittlely and quickly went there.

The two palace maids continued to measure Chu Qianchen's body:

"Please raise your arms slightly to both sides, and I will measure the girl's waist and hip circumference."

"I will measure the length of my arm for the girl."

“…”

The wedding dresses for the wedding are complicated, and this time there are a lot of sizes. In addition to a real red large-sleeved jacket, a shiny veil, a red silk skirt and a red silk robe, there are also matching Jiuzhai crowns, large belts, jade leather belts, jade flower picking ribbons, jade pendants and other accessories. Everything must be prepared according to the ritual of the princess.

This was specially explained by the Queen, and you must not be wronged by King Chen!

In a moment, Agate brought Aunt Yan over.

Madam Yan had carefully washed it up early in the morning, wearing a new royal blue dark patterned bun, her body was clean and neat, looking no different from when she was in the palace on weekdays.

Madam Qiu looked at Madam Yan up and down, feeling that the other party seemed to have lost weight and looked a little haggard.

"Madam Yan," Madam Qiu looked at her with concern, with a very intimate expression, "You look a little haggard, but didn't sleep well last night?"

Madam Yan: “…”

Madam Yan's eyes were a little dull, and she subconsciously looked towards Chu Qianchen.

Chu Qianchen was sitting on a chair, and the palace maid measured her head, holding a round fan embroidered with a cat pounce butterfly in his hand, suffocating casually.

The little black cat on the fan also moved with her movements, as if she was about to pounce on her from the fan.

The day before yesterday, the conversation between Chu Qianchen and her flashed quickly in his mind. Madam Yan felt her heart tight and she suddenly shuddered.

She should not go back to that dark room.

Madam Yan had no doubt that as long as she said a wrong word, it would be easy to use Chu Qianchen's methods to make her faint or "ill".

Madam Yan squeezed out a smile and said as if nothing had happened: "I am not young anymore. I have not been able to sleep well in the past two years, and I am still in love with the bed. I just changed the environment and have been sleeping uneasy these days."

Madam Qiu didn't really care about Madam Yan, she just asked casually and didn't doubt it.

Immediately afterwards, she got to the main topic and said with a smile: "Before I came to the Marquis' Mansion, I went to the Shouning Palace to meet the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager told you not to hurry back to the palace and stay in the Marquis' Mansion to "serve" Miss Chu Er."

Madam Qiu said to the Queen Mother, but in fact, both she and Madam Yan knew that this was what the Queen said, and she was just using the name of the Queen Mother.

Madam Yan didn't dare to play tricks at all, and nodded and said, "I understand, I will definitely not let down the Queen Mother's painstaking efforts."

"I also bother Madam Qiu to go back and tell the Empress Dowager that Miss Chu is smart and diligent, and has a good learning of rules."

"That's good." Madam Qiu felt relieved and smiled deeper. "The Empress Dowager is very concerned about Miss Chu Er, so you must do your best." Her tone was a bit meaningful.

Madam Yan glanced at Chu Qianchen again quickly. Chu Qianchen smiled lightly and could not see any joy or anger.
