MTL - Blind Date In Time and Space-Chapter 329 Goddess Xia Shumin
Chapter 329 Goddess Xia Shumin
Xia Mansion.
"Aunt Wang, have you brought the window grilles?"
"Well, I asked the kitchen to make some paste."
"Where did the incense candles I prepared last night go?!"
"Be quicker with your hands and feet, and the Angel of Shenshi will be at your house!"
Led by the two maids, Zhou Cuihong and Quqin walked in the huge Xia Mansion. Everywhere they saw people were busy, from the young and beautiful maids, to the aunts and mothers in their forties and fifties, to those who carried the table. Chairs, servants with tea and food.
The entire Xia Mansion was immersed in a festive atmosphere, with lights and festoons in preparation for the arrival of the imperial decree.
Zhou Cuihong has participated in many business exhibitions, and Qu Qin has also been to fashion fairs and auctions. Both of them are people who have seen the world.
But at this moment.
So many ancient people are busy working in the quaint mansion, preparing for the imperial decree of the emperor.
Seeing this scene, the two of them looked around as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden.
The pavilions, terraces, waterside pavilions, pavilions and steps, numerous wing rooms, gardens, and corridors in the Xia Mansion dazzled them.
"Hey, Master Zhou."
The maid stopped Zhou Cuihong who was walking forward unconsciously, and looked at him with strange eyes: "You can't go inside."
"Well."
Zhou Cuihong was embarrassed for a while, thinking that the arch might be the study room of the ancestral hall.
Quqin asked curiously, "What's inside?"
The servant girl was surprised, "It's an inner house inside."
"Can't you just enter the inner house?"
"The inner house... men can't enter the inner house casually, only the master and uncle can enter, you can enter, master Zhou can't enter, unless the master is around."
"I see."
Quqin came to a sudden realization, it really is not easy to enter the back house in this ancient times.
"I'll take you two to look elsewhere."
The servant girl led them to another place.
While passing a side door, Zhou Cuihong heard noises coming from outside the door, and from time to time he could hear the clinking of iron objects, which shocked the two of them.
"There is a war outside?!" Quqin's mind flashed the words bandits, officers and soldiers, uprising, etc. This ancient times is not safe at all!
"Hey, where is the war?" The servant girl covered her mouth and snickered, "The crown prince brought tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Yongkang County, who would dare to make a mistake? It's just a group of Jianghu people fooling around outside, don't worry, they don't Dare to enter Xiafu!"
The two maids raised their chins with a proud expression.
Since the aunt appeared, their Xia Mansion has become a transcendent existence. Not only the imperial court dare not provoke them, but even the lawless gangsters dare not set foot in the Xia Mansion again!
"Jianghu people?"
Zhou Cuihong's heart moved, "Come on, let's go out and have a look!"
After finishing speaking, he walked out, and Quqin couldn't stop him.
Walking out of the side door, the two immediately saw a group of rough-dressed and unrestrained ancients carrying swords in the forest not far away, yelling around an open space.
In the clearing, two men with swords were confronting each other.
"Old Dog Zhao, my sworn brother was killed in Nanling three years ago, did you do it?"
"Fart your mother!"
"Hmph, if you want others to know you can't do it yourself, look at the sword!"
The sword light flashed rapidly along with the figure. Seeing this scene, Zhou Cuihong and the two were stunned again, staring at the two people who were fighting with super high speed and amazing strength in the distance.
"Here... why didn't Xiao Chen tell us that this is the world of martial arts?!"
Zhou Cuihong and others are all stupid.
He was sure that there was no such thing as true qi and internal strength in the ancient Xia Kingdom, but he didn't expect that the history of this world is different from that of Xia Kingdom, and that other places are also different!
Here, there is a real martial arts arena!
Quqin glanced at her husband, saw his eyes shining, and said angrily, "You still want to practice martial arts at your age?"
"Think, why don't you want to!"
"Then let's go."
"hey-hey."
Zhou Cuihong stopped talking, he didn't dare to get close to these gangsters with weapons.
"Are they all here to congratulate?"
Quqin turned to ask the servant girl, and after getting an affirmative answer, her heart skipped a beat again.
That Xia Shumin's family background is indeed not trivial, and her status is respected. After Xiaowan and the others get along with her, they wonder if they can stand her princess airs.
No, no, her two daughters are not bad either! With the net worth given by her and her father, you can buy whatever you want in modern society! No worse than an ancient princess at all!
Besides, this princess Xia Shumin went to modern times and lived in her daughter's house, and she called her daughter Sister Wan.
It is clear at a glance who is older and who is younger.
Quqin was relieved a lot, and a smile appeared on her face again.
This trip was not in vain.
The husband and wife walked around inside and outside the Xia Mansion, and they went back under the leadership of the maid at lunch time.
When the two came to the front hall, they saw many people queuing up to give gifts.
"Master Song, the governor of the county, sent a copy of the four treasures including rice paper and inkstone!"
"Wei Guogong sent the former Tang Dynasty gold and stone antiques, emerald jewelry..."
"Zhu Jiange sent a sword."
"Tiandao will send six land deeds..."
The person who sang the ceremony did not speak loudly, nor did he say what the sword was or what the land deed was, but the person in charge of registering the gift list recorded it in detail, and remembered every gift in detail.
Quqin glanced at the people queuing up to give presents, from the front hall to the 100 meters outside the gate, many of them were relatives of the emperor and court officials, as for those people in the Jianghu, she couldn't understand them at all.
"this…"
The husband and wife were shocked again.
When they went back to eat, the servant girl led them to a wing room, only the two of them, no one else was there.
"Where are Wan'er and Xiao Wan? Xiao Chen is gone too."
Quqin asked the servant girl.
The servant girl didn't know either, so she went out to inquire about it, and then came back and replied: "Mrs. Zhou, your two young ladies are going to eat with our young lady, and we will attend the grand ceremony together later. My uncle seems to be going out to meet people from the rivers and lakes, the master and his wife." busy."
"okay, I get it."
Quqin didn't ask any further questions, but she was a little curious, Xiaowan and the others going with Princess Xia Shumin?
When the two were having dinner, they heard that the Xia Mansion was always bustling. Many guests were invited to sit inside the Xia Mansion, but more Jiang Hu people could only stay outside the Xia Mansion and sit on the floor.
Fortunately, a shed was set up outside, and the cooks were busy cooking, and the flowing water mats spread all the way from Xiafu to the foot of Hongye Mountain.
The event was unprecedented.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, there was a commotion in front of the Xia Mansion.
Quqin and Zhou Cuihong ran out to watch, and saw a group of cavalry with clear flags on the mountain road in the distance, accompanied by the sound of gold, escorting a luxury carriage drawn by four horses.
The carriage was followed by a large group of officials in court uniforms, accompanied by many court maids. The momentum was so great that people looked sideways.
"This is a bit strange."
Zhou Cuihong felt even more surprised.
Will it be so grand to bestow the princess? Moreover, two princesses were sealed in succession, and they were still mother and daughter. I heard that the prince of Zhao Guo came in person.
These etiquettes are really different from the ancient Xia Kingdom.
"Just watch."
Quqin has given up on pursuing it, and Chen Ji and Wan'er are not there, so now she can only watch.
"The Governor of Yongkang County, welcome His Highness the Crown Prince! Welcome the Holy Majesty's will!"
Xia Yongcheng, who was waiting in front of the gate, brought several servants and local officials of Yongkang County to kneel on the ground to welcome the crown prince and the imperial decree.
"Um?"
Zhou Cuihong, who was not sensitive to ancient etiquette, felt that something was wrong.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the front, and the sacred decree is in the back.
He looked around, all the servants in the Xia Mansion had already knelt down, but the surrounding Jianghu people didn't kneel at all, they just fell silent.
In addition, only Xia Yongcheng came out to welcome the crown prince, and the eldest princess and Princess Shuning who were about to be conferred did not come out.
"Uncle please get up!"
Lu Huai, who was wearing a red golden woven dragon robe, quickly jumped out of the carriage, stepped forward in three steps at a time, and helped Xia Yongcheng up with a smile on his face.
The imperial forest army blocked the people from all corners of the country, and the officials stepped forward to greet them one after another.
This scene made Quqin and Zhou Cuihong excited again.
The ancient prince actually looked like this!
If they hadn't come with Chen Ji, they would never have seen such etiquette in modern times, let alone the real prince.
After the greetings, the imperial decree was not read out immediately, and they had to enter the mansion.
"Family, how about we go in together?"
Xia Yongcheng's eyes fell on Zhou Cuihong and Zhou Cuihong in the crowd, and he invited them with a smile.
In an instant, countless eyes looked over, making the two people in the modern shopping mall feel a burst of pressure.
Prince, officials of the court, relatives of the emperor, people from the Jianghu who know martial arts, and the imperial army are all existences that they can't afford to mess with!
"Okay, okay."
Zhou Cuihong regained his composure, pulled his wife, and walked into the gate with Xia Yongcheng and others.
Quqin's back was sweating, how many years had she been so nervous?
However, after entering Xia Mansion again, in the front hall, she finally saw her daughter.
In the lobby.
Quqin saw a majestic lady, dressed in fine attire, sitting on the main seat.
The one sitting next to her was changed into a princess costume, wearing a crown of nine chariots and four phoenixes on her head, with hairpins of various sizes. She looked extraordinarily luxurious, and her small face looked extremely noble.
Quqin was only surprised when she saw it.
Fortunately, she saw her two daughters sitting next to Princess Shuning again.
They also put on phoenix coronets and xiapei, which were far more decorated than the ones Quqin bought for them a few days ago. Their luxurious and beautiful bodies made the two Zhou Wan look no less than Princess Shuning.
Holding the golden silk imperial decree in his hand, the prince stepped into the front hall in four directions, and shouted: "Princess Anping accepts the decree!"
Lu Rui, who was on the throne, stood up, came to the imperial decree and knelt respectfully, and replied: "Unfilial girl Anping, kneel to welcome the imperial edict."
Behind her and around the prince, everyone fell to their knees.
Zhou Cuihong and Qu Qin neither knelt nor stood. Fortunately, no one paid attention to them, and the two quickly retreated to the corner by the wall.
They weren't the only ones standing, though.
Including their daughter Zhou Wan, there are three people still standing.
That's right, Princess Shuning Xia Shumin also stood beside her mother. It seemed that she wanted to kneel just now, but her mother slapped her back, so she had to stand.
The prince Lu Huai glanced at the two Zhou Wan, and unfolded the imperial decree: "The king is in harmony with the nine clans...the royal sister is soft and beautiful, and she is graceful and graceful. Princess Anping is named the eldest princess of the emperor Zhao, and she is bestowed with a golden book. profit."
In silence, after reading the imperial decree, Prince Lu Huai handed the imperial decree to his aunt.
Then he took out another imperial decree, Lu Huai looked at Xia Shumin with a smile on his face, and read again:
"Princess Anping's daughter Shumin, Shushen Huiya, with a celestial beauty and beauty, met the Shangxian Chen Ji in Yongkang County and got married together... I am very happy to hear this, and I specially named Shumin, the daughter of Princess Anping, as Shuning." Princess, give the princess mansion, give the gold book..."
A series of rewards made everyone around them stunned.
But no one dared to object.
Princess Shuning Xia Shumin not only named the princess with a different surname, but also stood up to receive the imperial decree. How could they not know the reason?
"Shuning thanked the emperor for his kindness."
After accepting the reward, Xia Shumin can also call herself a princess in the future.
She was a little shy and nervous, and took over the imperial decree from the prince's cousin.
After the etiquette was completed, Lu Huai quickly helped her aunt up.
Lu Rui didn't talk to him, but glanced at the sky, as if waiting for someone.
"Wait for who?"
Zhou Cuihong and Qu Qin's questions were quickly answered.
The sky is full of wind and clouds.
Dark clouds and rays of light appeared from the sky together, and accompanied by thunder and phoenix singing, a dragon and a phoenix appeared from the sky. The vigorous figure of the dragon, the figure of the fiery red phoenix, and the sound of the phoenix singing throughout the world made Zhou Cuihong and Quqin stare. big.
Not just them.
Many officials from the imperial court were also overly terrified at the moment. If they hadn't known the inside story a long time ago, they might have become a mess.
Countless people gaze at the sky.
Amidst the sound of the dragon singing and the phoenix singing, a handsome and extraordinary man slowly landed from the top of the real dragon, with two black and white beads floating beside him, holding a book in his hand.
"Chen Ji from the fairy world of the earth, with the orbs of the yin and yang realms, came to the Xia mansion to ask for marriage, and is willing to marry Xia Shumin as his wife!"
Chen Ji's words left everyone present dumbfounded.
Zhou Cuihong and Qu Qin were shocked, their son-in-law Chen Ji, unexpectedly, unexpectedly...!
Big Zhou Wan and Xiao Zhou Wan looked at each other, and then at Xia Shumin in front of them together.
The newly-promoted Princess Shuning was already flushed with embarrassment at this moment, and her delicate face was blushing. When Chen Ji walked up to her with the marriage certificate, she was already speechless.
Prince Lu Huai watched enviously, not daring to make any other strange expressions.
Xia Yongcheng and his wife smiled.
"your Highness."
Chen Ji smiled and handed back the marriage letter written by herself to her: "Would you agree to my marriage proposal?"
Xia Shumin blushed.
How can anyone submit a marriage certificate like this!
It should be handed over to her parents. After agreeing, the two can meet.
But in the end, the young master brought the yin and yang beads as a betrothal gift, and came to propose marriage like this...
ah!
It must be the mother's suggestion. Before the mother called the young master, it turned out that she had agreed with him to propose marriage in the near future!
"Could it be that...you need me to meet Her Royal Highness?"
Seeing that she didn't answer, Chen Ji laughed again.
Xia Shumin blushed with embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "This princess... Shumin dares to let the gods see it, this marriage letter... Shumin accepted it, and please, please don't let Shumin down. I will grow old with you in this lifetime!"
"Shu Min!"
Chen Ji embraced her so movedly that he didn't care about any etiquette, and now he just wanted to hug her petite body tightly.
Xia Shumin also forgot about the two older sisters behind her, and put all her heart on Chen Ji, hugging him, tightly clutching the marriage certificate.
The marriage letter was written by her, but after it was delivered to her by Chen Ji, the meaning was already different.
Prince Lu Huai was the first to react, and congratulated Lu Rui and Xia Yongcheng: "My aunt and uncle gave birth to a goddess, and married a fairy. It is indeed my great Zhao country's fortune!"
After being proposed by a fairy, Xia Shumin can be called a goddess, which represents her extraordinary life experience and her status surpasses the imperial power and secular world.
This is also the reason why Lu Rui didn't let her kneel down before.
"Immortal? Mr. Chen!?"
Many people finally realized that Mr. Chen was not the disciple of the land god, but the **** himself!
