Chapter 953 Tribute

Qin Xin, who was very curious, was scratching his head and head anxiously. As soon as the matchmaker left, he couldn't wait to come out.

She asked loudly: "Mom, who proposed marriage to me?"

Mrs. Cao nodded Qin Xin's forehead with hatred, "Is there a girl's family like yours? In other girls' families, whenever they hear the word "marriage", they will walk away in shame. It's better for you to hurry up yourself. Come up and ask!”

Qin Xin rubbed her forehead and said, "Mom, this is a major event in my life. Don't I have to figure it out?"

“Who is it? Whose family has come to propose marriage?”

Ms. Cao glanced at her daughter's face and said slowly, "It's the Marquis of Changping."

Qin Xin's face turned red.

The mouth is faster than the brain, and a sentence comes out, "He moves very quickly."

When Cao heard something was wrong, she raised her eyebrows and said, "What? Have you seen it? Have you received it privately?"

Qin Xin stamped her foot suddenly, "Mom, what are you talking nonsense about?"

“There’s no such thing as a personal relationship!”

"That's right, just two days ago, when I came out of the Crown Princess's palace, I happened to see him going in, and I accidentally took a look at him."

Mrs. Cao thought to herself, yes, her daughter did go to the East Palace the day before yesterday.

She couldn't help but think again, could this have been specially arranged by the Crown Princess?

Immediately I thought, it didn’t matter if the Crown Princess had arranged it. The Gu family came to propose marriage, so the Crown Princess would have agreed to the marriage.

Looking at her daughter's blushing face, Mr. Cao had never seen her daughter shy before, so there was something she didn't understand. The two of them knew each other.

She wanted to tease her daughter and said deliberately: "The foundation of the Gu family is a bit shallow after all. Besides..."

Before she finished speaking, Qin became anxious, "What's not fundamental? The prince's brother-in-law is here -"

Ms. Cao seized on the loophole in Qin Xin's words, "Brother-in-law of the crown prince? I mean, Xin'er, you are too much!"

Qin Xin was stunned for a moment, then he stamped his feet with a red face, "Mom, I usually call you the princess sister and the prince brother-in-law. Where did you think you were going!"

“Forget it, I won’t tell you anymore.” He picked up his skirt and ran back.

Ms. Cao looked at Qin Xin's back, smiled and couldn't help but sigh, "There is no chance for a female college student to stay."

Within a few days, Chen received a reply and the Ningguo Duke agreed to get married.

 Chen first sent people to the military camp on the outskirts of Beijing to deliver news to Sanlang.

Saburo was so happy that he did several hollow somersaults.

On Chen's side, he wrote three books and six etiquettes, and started walking to Duke Ningguo's mansion in the same manner.

Not long after, it was time to test out the rankings.

Before dawn, Mrs. Chen sent her servants to wait outside the yamen of the Ministry of Rites to post the list.

The boy is Gu Qing's schoolboy, and he is literate.

When we arrived at the entrance of the ceremonial door, we saw that there were already many people waiting, most of them were servants from various families.

After waiting for a long time, the officials came out and lazily posted a red list.

Xiaosi starts from the first name.

Huiyuan: Su Chen

The list of tributes came next. The boy stretched his neck and widened his eyes, fearing that he might have missed it.

When he saw the third row, the boy finally saw Gu Qing, a native of Ping'an City from Donghai County.

The boy turned around and ran out. He didn't care about one of his shoes being squeezed off, and ran all the way home.

Mr. Chen, Gu Zhang and Gu Qing were both waiting in the lobby. Seeing the boy running in out of breath, Gu Zhang asked anxiously: "How is it? Are you on the list?"

The boy was panting so much that he couldn't speak. Mrs. Chen said quickly, "Don't be anxious. The result is certain anyway. You can talk again after you breathe well."
