Chapter 1420 Granted Marriage (1)

Early in the morning, Marquis Jian'an was going to court. Before leaving, he confirmed with his wife again: "Are you sure that Yun wants to marry the prince of Qingluo?"

Madam Wu said: "How can I hide the thoughts of my daughter? When this girl heard people mention the prince of Qingluo, her face was red and her eyes were bright. If she didn't fall in love with him, what else could she be?"

Marquis Jian'an nodded, "Okay, I will report this to the emperor today." After putting on court clothes, he took the jade sceptre and hurried to court.

After sending her husband away, Madam Wu was about to go see her daughter when the maid on duty outside reported: "Madam, the aunt is here."

The aunt the maid was referring to was Marquis Jian'an's sister, the eldest lady of the Duke of Liguo's mansion, Wu. She came here early in the morning, and she knew what she was doing without asking. Madam Wu didn't want to see her, let alone listen to her asking for marriage for Mo Zili, but because of the relationship between aunt and sister-in-law, she had to take the time to see her.

"Forget it, please come in and sit down!"

When the eldest lady was invited into the warm room, she saw her sister-in-law sitting on the bed drinking tea, but she didn't know what she was thinking about. She was staring at a celestial globe vase with carved flowers and birds on the treasure pavilion. Wu's footsteps became a little heavier, and she raised her head.

"Oh, what gust of wind blew my sister back? Look at me, I was so busy thinking about buying a dowry for Yun'er that I forgot to go out to greet my sister."

How could Wu not understand what her sister-in-law meant? She was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "So, my niece is going to be happy again?"

Madam Wu said, "That's right. We have decided to marry Yun'er to the prince of Qingluo. The marquis will also report this to the emperor at the court this morning. If nothing goes wrong, the edict of marriage will be issued soon. At that time, I will have to ask my sister to spend money and give another gift."

Since her sister-in-law had said so much, Madam Wu naturally understood that it was useless to be a lobbyist at this time, so she had to follow her words and answer, "Of course, this is a very good thing. Although Qingluo does not lack our little things, we have to dress up well to save face for my niece."

Seeing that it was useless to mention Mo Zili, she simply did not say anything to avoid being embarrassed. Madam Wu pretended to be ignorant and asked with a smile: "By the way, I haven't asked you why you came here?"

The eldest lady's expression froze for a moment, and she said: "It's nothing important. I just heard that the emperor asked his niece to choose her own husband, so I came back to ask her who she chose, hehe----"

Madam Wu smiled and said: "Thank you for your trouble, sister. When I prepare Yun'er's dowry tomorrow, I will definitely need you to come and help."

The eldest lady smiled and said: "Of course..."

The two talked for a while, talking about how to prepare Xiangyun's dowry and how to send her off. After that, the eldest lady got up and said goodbye. She hurried home regardless of her sister-in-law's insistence on having lunch. The old lady at home was still waiting for her letter, and she couldn't delay here.

When I returned to the Duke of Liguo's mansion, I saw Mingzhu, the second-class maid in the old lady's room, looking out the gate as soon as I entered the gate. When she saw the eldest lady's car, Mingzhu chanted: "Amitabha, you are finally back. The old lady has sent me to check four or five times."

At this time, in the warm room where the old lady often stayed, the old lady, Bai, Yang, and the four daughters born to Yang were all there. Everyone was anxiously waiting for the eldest lady, waiting for the eldest lady to bring back news.

Seeing the eldest lady coming back, everyone couldn't help but stand up, and the old lady asked repeatedly: "How is it, did you make it through?"
