Chapter 175 Finally, the ceremony is completed
Perhaps because he is getting older, the emperor has been fond of reminiscing about the past recently. Whenever he thinks of his wife, the Wu family, and how his sons are constantly fighting for the throne, he feels filled with regret.
In the past, he considered the long-term interests of Da Qi and was willing to establish a good king. Now that he is older, he has begun to reflect on what he did when he was young. The more he thinks about it, the more he feels that he can't do it to the Wu family, so he leans towards the prince's side.
.
Although he was ambitious when he was young, he and Wu's young couple were in love for a while. Later, he felt that she was short-sighted and could not stand up to the stage, so he gradually ignored her. Even major events related to the succession of the Daqi throne were scrupulous.
She was a person with long hair and short knowledge, and she did not tell her the importance of Shen's daughter, which made Wu make mistakes frequently.
Now think about it, if the pros and cons of this matter could have been explained to her in detail back then, for a woman, nothing can compare to the rebirth of her son, and the situation today would not have happened.
Anyway, now that I have taken action to suppress the sixth son, I hope the prince can seize this opportunity and truly subdue him, otherwise the consequences for the prince will not be optimistic, because he himself is always wavering between establishing a legitimate eldest son or establishing a virtuous person. Really
I don't know who I will favor in the end.
Now let’s not mention the emperor’s dilemma. I will just say that since the deal was already done, the Shen family had no choice but to prepare the dowry in a hurry.
Mrs. Shen was still worried at first, but fortunately Father Shen tried to persuade her: "This can be regarded as a marriage according to the decree. How can we resist the decree? Besides, the Six Emperors have been despised by the emperor and have no power. They want to get involved in the robbery."
Even if there is no competition for the throne, in the future when the new emperor ascends the throne, he can always occupy the position of prince. For Qiu'er, it can be regarded as a peaceful life."
Mrs. Shen's heart relaxed a little, and she thought that looking at the current situation, she could not expect the sixth prince to live a good life after her daughter was married, so she started to plan the dowry even more actively.
In fact, the dowry has been prepared for several years, and it is basically ready. However, because I don’t know the size of the new house, some large pieces of furniture have not been made yet. However, all the wood has been prepared.
Mrs. Shen converted a dozen of them into gold and silver. She was worried that her eldest son would not be able to take care of Shen Qiujun a hundred years later, so she added tens of thousands of taels of silver to the box.
Shen Zhaoying and his wife were not at home, so they were out of reach, and all the money from the Marquis Mansion was in Mrs. Shen's hands, so there was nothing they could do to stop them.
Shen Zhaoning and his wife felt sorry for Shen Qiujun's experience. It was reasonable for Mrs. Shen to act like this. Besides, even if she didn't give it to Shen Qiujun, most of it would belong to Shen Zhaoying in the future and fall into the hands of their second wife. I don't know if they can get it.
It's only a few taels of silver, but I'm happy to do this favor.
In addition, the brothers and sisters of the Shen family also each added their own makeup. Mrs. Shen took the father-in-law's share to add to Shen Zhaoying's share first, and Shen Qiujun took it. As for Shen Lijun's share, Shen Qiujun directly asked someone from Prince Xian's Mansion to let them add it again.
I took it back intact.
Old Mrs. Shen surprised everyone. They thought she was pretending to be unaware of the stalemate between Shen Qiujun and Shen. Who would have thought that she would actually have someone bring 10,000 taels of silver? Shen Qiujun was quite happy after being surprised.
The land was harvested and the reward was thanked outside Chunhui Garden.
Mrs. Shen also nodded in agreement and said: "That's good. No matter how she treats you, the elders are bound to give it to you. If you don't accept it, it will be a crime of disobedience. Just accept it, and there is no need to feel uncomfortable. This is just what she did."
It's just the wishes of the elders, I don't think I will order you to do this or that because of it."
When Mrs. Shen heard what her daughter-in-law said, she just sneered. If she really ordered Shen Qiujun to do something in the future, if Shen Qiujun dared not to do it, she would be able to shame him into punishing Shen Qiujun for his unfilial piety.
When Shen Qiujun heard her mother say these words, she also smiled and said: "A daughter has her own sense of propriety. My daughter is from the Shen family, and the Shen family's affairs are naturally her daughter's affairs. She dare not stand aside and watch, but her daughter will not forget it either." From now on, I will belong to the Zhuang Shen family."
Mrs. Shen nodded with satisfaction, but Shen Qiujun couldn't help but feel worried.
This marriage was her own choice, so no matter how the sixth prince displeased the emperor, she didn't care. What she was worried about was the wedding dress.
The time to make the wedding dress is tight now, but since the emperor has made it clear that the wedding dress should be simple, it makes sense to make the wedding dress simple.
But Shen Qiujun was still afraid of Big Red in his heart, especially after he had just experienced a life-and-death struggle with General Xiao not long ago.
Of course Shen Qiujun will not regret her actions that day, but that day when she was lying on the ground soaked in red by General Xiao's blood, it inevitably triggered memories of what happened back then, which made her have an extreme fear of the color red again. feel.
How could she not panic when she thought that on her wedding day, she would not only have to wear a red dress, but also have to cover her face with a red hijab?
Shen Qiujun then said to his mother: Since the emperor asked for simplicity and the wedding dress could not be made at the moment, it would be better to make some red decorations on the newly made autumn dress and use it as a wedding dress.
When Mrs. Shen heard this, she was very unhappy. Although the material of the autumn clothes was good, the color was not red, but cyan. She just made that set of clothes as a joke. After it was made, Shen Qiujun only tried it on. , found that some of them made people look older, so they left them there for the time being. Unexpectedly, Shen Qiujun took them out at this time.
Shen Qiujun smiled and said: "It's too late to do it now. I'm in a hurry, so I might as well just do this. I made it stitch by stitch, and I've never worn it before."
"Getting married is a lifelong event, how can we play it so casually?" Mrs. Shen couldn't help scolding her. She originally wanted to persuade her daughter to put down everything and concentrate on making wedding dresses, but she thought of her daughter's heartache, but she didn't know what to say. alright.
Shen Qiujun hurriedly smiled and said: "The emperor has said that things should be simplified, how can we violate the holy will? With my dowry of hundreds of thousands, I can't even keep a low profile. No matter how glamorous I am, it goes against the holy will. Marrying like that. The clothes are very good, not ostentatious, and have a sense of dignity and elegance."
What mother doesn't want her daughter to get married in a red wedding dress? Mrs. Shen thought so too at first, but now she saw that her daughter was still extremely afraid of the color red. Her heart ached so much that she could only sigh: "This is not just for the Shen family. It has the final say, and the Sixth Prince’s thoughts must be taken into consideration.”
So he sent someone to tell the Sixth Prince about the wedding dress tactfully.
As long as Shen Qiujun can marry, the Sixth Prince will naturally be obedient, not to mention that it involves the events of the past. After he happily agreed, he couldn't help but feel pain and guilt in his heart.
The wedding day will come soon.
The day before the wedding, the Shen family sent the dowry to the Sixth Prince's Mansion. In fact, the dowry also included furniture. Although the Shen family's dowry did not have furniture, the dowry was the same as that of similar families who married a girl. It can be called a red dowry of ten miles. , and the stacks of dowry boxes dazzled the eyes.
At first, the Shen family was worried that the emperor would be unhappy. Fortunately, the emperor said that he could not stand the sixth prince's little scheme. The Shen family was also considered a victim in this matter, so the Shen family could just act according to their own wishes.
Everyone in the capital was dumbfounded when they saw that the Shen family was so generous in marrying off a daughter who was destined to become an outcast. Especially the young ladies who were waiting for marriage were extremely envious after hearing the servant's description. But then they thought Shen Qiujun married the sixth prince, who was not liked by the emperor and had an eccentric temperament, so he felt a lot more balanced in his heart.
Different from the scene of the Shen family's dowry delivery the day before, the entire wedding in the Sixth Prince's Mansion on the day of the wedding was extremely shabby.
First, the relatives and friends who came to congratulate him found that the decoration of the Sixth Prince's Mansion was really plain and ugly. Later, the team that went to greet the bride was only a few people. What year is it now? It is too shabby to still act according to the old imperial calendar from the time of the Grand Ancestor. After a while, Shengsheng lost some of his joy.
Besides, other brides wear a festive red wedding dress, inlaid with beads and precious stones, and silver and gold threads. It is better for Shen Qiujun to just wear a green dress. Although the material is of good quality, the dress is also inlaid with a lot of jewels and jade. It’s never a red wedding dress.
She was dressed in green, which seemed to foreshadow her own tragic fate in the future, so that before the worship was finished, everyone began to worry about Shen Qiujun. This was obviously a disgrace to the Sixth Prince, and they didn't know what would happen next. What bloody things will happen on the wedding night?
In fact, in this marriage, no matter how you look at it, the Shen family paid the dowry in vain and added a daughter, so they couldn't blame the bride for being unwilling. Fortunately, the sixth prince was dressed in red, which made him look more handsome, so he reluctantly It's like a newlywed.
However, the wedding finally went ahead. Everyone who attended the wedding was in tears. However, the Northern Man Prince was secretly happy when he saw the sixth prince in such a miserable state. He was the one who laughed the most at the wedding banquet. Those who didn't know it thought that He is getting married.
However, how could everyone who pitied Shen Qiujun in their hearts imagine that a few years later, this sympathetic woman would have an unprecedented grand wedding, and the green dress that was out of place in the eyes of everyone would become the bride. My children’s favorite wedding dress!
After finally sending everyone away, the sixth prince came to the new house with an uneasy mood.
Seeing Shen Qiujun sitting upright in the new house, the sixth prince felt at peace.
After picking up the hijab and drinking Heyi wine, the sixth prince had something to eat with Shen Qiujun. As everyone cleared the table, the sixth prince held Shen Qiujun's hand and said guiltily: "Sister Yu, I have wronged you."
Of course Shen Qiujun felt aggrieved. Although she had been prepared in her heart, when the day came and she saw the extremely simple wedding, she couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved. In her previous life, she was the one who was under the hundred-day taboo of her sister. , so it was never a big deal, but now that she is reborn, the first wife that Ming Media is marrying is still not in the spotlight. For every woman, this must be said to be a shortcoming in her life.
