Chapter 111 From now on, I can only watch her from afar (58)
Because it was the early stage of the Enke period, the death of a little girl did not cause any big waves.
After all, everyone's focus is on this imperial examination.
And those princes who had a good relationship with Wang Muqing found that even Empress Liu's reaction was very calm, so they didn't say much.
Some even speculated that it was probably because Wang Muqing knew too much that he was killed.
Therefore, no one would come close at this time.
The results of the imperial examination came out very quickly. During the palace examination, because of Xue Han's handsome appearance and young age, he was selected as the third place.
"Xue Qing! You are so handsome, you must be careful when you walk out of here today, don't be caught on the list of sons-in-law!" Emperor Qianxuan smiled and joked with Xue Han, "Although there are not many such things in the capital, there are still one or two barbarians."
After saying this, Emperor Qianxuan deliberately glanced at Xie Linyuan who insisted on coming along today.
Important events like the palace examination were usually presided over by the emperor himself with some civil servants accompanying him, but today Xie Linyuan insisted on coming along.
Xie Linyuan didn't feel embarrassed at all when Emperor Qianxuan looked at him like that. He even held his head high. People might have thought that he had won the third place in the imperial examination!
Xue Han did not shy away from saying, "Your Majesty, I have already been engaged, and the betrothal gifts are almost ready. I was planning to go to my favorite family to propose after the imperial examination is over."
"Well, well, well, you have passed the imperial examination and still remembered your original aspirations. I will reward you." Emperor Qianxuan was very happy. "I will confer the title of Princess Jiahui on your fiancée and grant you the marriage."
"Your Majesty, please think twice." Several civil officials around Emperor Qianxuan immediately knelt down, but Xie Linyuan, who was supposed to kneel down to express his gratitude, stood straight.
"What's wrong? Lord Xue is so loyal, what's wrong with me rewarding him like this?" Emperor Qianxuan said firmly, "Lord Xie, do you have any objections?"
The words were asked in a strange way, but the eyes were saying: Why don’t you kneel down and thank me?
Xie Linyuan came back to his senses and bowed to Emperor Qianxuan, saying, "I think what the emperor said is very true. I thank you on behalf of my daughter!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present realized that the emperor had taken this opportunity to confer the title of county princess on another daughter of General Xie.
There are some stubborn ones among them, but it is not worth it! The lessons from the past are still there!
It is said that no one knows where it is hiding right now!
As the palace examination came to an end, the news of the arranged marriage spread throughout the capital. Those who had said that Xie Jingshu would never be able to get married now changed their tone and said: She and Xue Han are a match made in heaven.
As for Xiao Ji, not long after this arranged marriage came out, Duke Xiao submitted a memorial to cancel his position as crown prince and appointed the elder brother of the twin sons he had brought back to the palace as crown prince instead.
In fact, this was originally a test. After all, the twins were illegitimate children and were registered under the name of the co-wife.
No one expected that Emperor Qianxuan would agree so immediately without even going through the formalities of staying.
Once this happened, who wouldn’t know what the current emperor meant?
They all couldn't help but sigh: nobles come and go, but the Xie family remains forever.
No matter what rumors there are about the Xie family in the capital, they are the ones that Emperor Qianxuan holds in his heart.
On the day of Xie Jingshu's wedding, many people came. It wasn't because they were close to the Xie family, but because they wanted to see if Emperor Qianxuan would come.
As expected, Emperor Qianxuan brought the ten-year-old prince to attend the wedding.
The Crown Prince was the only son of Empress Liu, who had given birth to four daughters before her.
Fortunately, the prince's identity was established since birth and his position was very stable.
And
"Xie Jingyi, you were the one who said that today's meal was good, but I didn't taste it!" The prince looked at the "glutinous rice dumpling" beside him with some dissatisfaction, "And why are you wearing so many clothes? It's inconvenient for me to pull you to run."
Because it was winter, Xie Jingyi was wrapped into a "ball" by his mother.
"Your Highness, there is a kind of coldness, which is your mother thinking that you are cold." Xie Jingyi unbuttoned his outer robe, "I don't want to be like that either, I am also hot."
"Then I didn't get to eat a lot of the dishes you mentioned." The prince stopped worrying about Xie Jingyi's clothes, but still cared about the food. "You said that the dishes in your house are different from those in the palace, so I specifically asked my father to bring me out.
You just give me this to eat? I don’t care, I want to eat something else.”
"Then let's go to my yard!" Xie Jingyi suddenly had an idea, "My eldest sister taught my cook a lot of dishes. I asked her to make braised meat for us. It's delicious!"
"Okay! I will trust you again." The prince agreed.
The secret guards who were following the two people not far away couldn't help but smile bitterly: Alas! The prince is usually very polite, why is he completely different when he meets Young Master Xie!
No wonder we are told not to get close to the Xie family casually, they are too contagious.
The third place winner who was in good shape just now was forced to perform the Qin family spear dance.
