Chapter 776 Inquiry
When came, the old lady Qiao got the words of the monk and asked her to tell the truth in front of the princess, so the old lady simply cut to the chase and didn't say a word of falsehood.
There is no need to test anything before a wise person.
Xie Zhiwei had an idea in mind, and said with a smile, "I'm not familiar with the people here, and I only said to invite a few relatives in my ceremony, after all, this place is far away from the capital, so I can't invite everyone here Firstly, it’s not a big deal, and secondly, it’s the New Year’s Eve, and the roads are blocked by heavy snow, so it’s really inconvenient. I think it’s not lively enough, and the lord even said that he treated me badly.”
Qiao Tongxiao answered the conversation very quickly, and said with a smile, "If Princess Chen doesn't dislike it, I will invite sisters from the Zhu family, the Wang family and the Qu family to attend Princess Chen's wedding ceremony, I wonder if it's okay? "
This saves Xie Zhiwei from proposing, she is really a smart girl.
Xie Zhiwei nodded appreciatively, "When the time comes, I will leave the hospitality to you!"
Because of the good conversation, when Qiao Tongxiao left, Xie Zhiwei rewarded her with a string of eighteen emerald beads, which consisted of eighteen emerald beads and four coral beads. It was something that came out of the palace. The old lady of the Qiao family was overjoyed and left with gratitude.
Linghua and Zheng Jingshuang didn't see why, Linghua couldn't help but wondered, "What's the matter? What does your ceremony have to do with them? What kind of ceremony will you still have if you come together so eagerly?"
Xie Zhiwei said what he had said for a while, his mouth was dry, he took a sip of tea, and said, "In the future, the prince will be a feudal lord here. These people say that they are the people here, but in fact, they are now the leaders of the sixteen states. , My attitude towards them now is the attitude of the prince towards them in the future. They are actually spying on the prince. If I am not kind to them today, they will pack their bags when they go back tonight. "
"What are you afraid of? Let's go, let's see where they can go now?" Zheng Jingshuang didn't think so.
Xie Zhiwei mused, "We regained Youyun Sixteen States not only for this land, but also for the people and wealth on this land. Once they leave, the shops and industries will cease to operate. It still has a great influence. But now, when they go back, it will not only affect the three families who are waiting for news at Qiao's house, they should still have contact with those who have left."
These were too complicated, Zheng Jingshuang and Linghua didn't want to use their brains, so they simply put them aside. After a while, Bailing came over and said that both Rong and Yuan were awake, and Xie Zhiwei planned to rush over to serve.
Bai Lingshen said mysteriously, "Princess, guess who I just saw?"
Without waiting for Xie Zhiwei to speak, Zi Mo said from the side, "You little hoof, you're making trouble again, so hurry up and say it."
Bai Ling said, "The servant saw Miss Xue, and Aunt Huaying brought Miss Xue back. She was dressed in coarse cloth with white flowers on a blue background, and she was dressed like a village woman. The servant almost didn't recognize her."
The three of them are no strangers to Xue Wanqing. When they heard this, they all looked at each other in blank dismay. Linghua couldn't help saying, "There are so many strange things that happened today!"
Xie Zhiwei frowned and said, "Go and find out why she met Aunt Huaying and how she was brought back?"
Bai Ling said, "My maidservant has inquired about it. Miss Xue sold herself to a tofu shop and sold tofu nao in the front yard. Then fourth master and fifth young master went to drink tofu nao. Fourth master saw how pitiful she was, so he helped her redeem her body. In the end, she was blackmailed instead, and when Aunt Huaying saw it, she said that she was missing a maidservant and brought her back."
The Rong family sent someone to ask when they were leaving, so Xie Zhiwei had no choice but to temporarily put the matter aside, got up with Zheng Jingshuang and Ling Hua, and when they left the temple, Xie Zhiwei didn't see Xue Wanqing, thinking about the jacaranda He was not an ordinary person either, so he didn't take Xue Wanqing too seriously.
Back home, the clothes Xie Zhiwei wore on Jiji Li were sent to be revised and delivered. Xie Zhiwei tried it on again and it fit perfectly. Zi Mo took it to be ironed. She was about to ask someone to ask when the prince will come back. Du Yuan came in and said, Master Cui is here.
Xie Zhiwei hurriedly went to the front, invited people to the main hall, saluted Cui Yingqing, and asked, "Why is uncle here?"
Cui Yingqing is as busy as a spinning top every day. When Xie Zhiwei went to Cui's house to pay New Year's greetings, Hai Shi still joked in front of her, saying that her uncle was busier than Master Lu all day long, and she couldn't help laughing.
Cui Yingqing took out a folded paper from her sleeve and handed it to Xie Zhiwei, "Ah Xun asked me to show it to you, see if you have anything to change?"
Xie Zhiwei took a rough look at it, and Jiji rituals are nothing more than these, following the ancient rituals, whether it is the Xie family or the Cui family, there are rules to follow, she has known these since she was a child, so she has no objection, said, "The charter drawn up by the uncle is already very good."
A layer of fatigue appeared between Cui Yingqing's brows and eyes, and he rubbed the center of his brows with his hands, "The Jiji ceremony was originally a matter for women, and it was originally planned that on that day, Princess Dagon will be the guest of honor, and your eldest aunt will be the secretary. Who knows, the prince said that he and Mr. Lu will watch the ceremony from the sidelines, and the place to watch the ceremony, I think, is the Tiren Pavilion on the left side of the Hall of Supreme Harmony."
Xie Zhiwei thought for a while and said, "Uncle, I have an idea. If I let my aunt be the secretary, I will really wrong my aunt, and I want to choose someone else."
Cui Yingqing was very surprised, but he always knew that his niece was very assertive, so he asked, "Who do you want to invite?"
"I would like to invite a famous woman from the Sixteen States of Youyun to be the secretary. If there is a candidate, it is not as good as Mrs. Qiao's family. What does uncle think?"
As soon as Xie Zhiwei said it, Cui Yingqing understood her intentions, and he couldn't help being extremely shocked. He was really shocked that his niece was able to think foresight at such a young age.
"Is it your idea or the prince's idea of this matter?" Cui Yingqing knew in his heart that it was probably Xie Zhiwei's idea, because these days, he has been discussing Xie Zhiwei's marriage ceremony with Xiao Xun and Lu Yan, and the candidates for Zhengbin and others have long been drawn up Even Xiao Xun never raised any objections.
"It's my idea, and I haven't had time to discuss it with the prince, but I think this is my birthday gift, and the prince should not object."
Cui Yingqing thought to herself that Xiao Xun said a lot about Jijili's objections to the regulations, but he only went through these words in his heart, did not say them, but nodded and said, "If you plan to do so, you should go ahead It's settled, if you really invite the wife of the Qiao family to come forward, you have to tell someone in advance and inform the charter earlier."
