majestic tiger

Chapter 121 Proclamation
Early the next morning, Ju Lian's father and mother went to bed together, and heard the magpies chirping in the tree, which was very lively.The husband and wife looked at each other and smiled, feeling very happy. The magpies chirped, good things were coming.

They had already decided to bring a matchmaker to General Wang's mansion to propose marriage this morning. To show how much they valued, the couple came to the door together.

In the eyes of the two, the cry of the magpie is a sign of great auspiciousness, indicating that this marriage is a match made in heaven.Otherwise, the magpie doesn't crow early or late, but chooses to crow non-stop during these two days?

After breakfast and tidying up, the couple sat and waited for the matchmaker to come and set off.Ju Lian didn't know the inside story, so he asked his father in bewilderment, why didn't you go to the Ministry of War today?
If the father went to the morning court, he would usually get up and rush to the court at the dawn of the morning; if he didn't go to the morning court, he would go to the Ministry of War after breakfast. No wonder Ju Lian wanted to ask questions.

Ju Lian's father really wanted to say that it was not for the lifelong event of you, a little brat, but for you to marry back the girl he loves, his father and mother worked hard.But Madam had warned her a long time ago, now is not the time to talk, Ju Lian's father had to swallow what he said, and was choked up.

"Lian'er, your father is not going to the military department today, he and mother are going out to do some business. You should go to the school quickly." Ju Lian's mother relieved her husband out of the siege.

So it was so, Ju Lian agreed, put on his book bag, bid farewell to his parents, and went to school.

The two watched their son walk away, feeling happy in their hearts.The son has grown from a one-foot-long baby to a tall and handsome boy. He is about to get engaged, and the next step is to marry a wife and have children, start a family and start a business.As parents, they have a great sense of accomplishment in their hearts.

The two continued to talk easily, waiting for the matchmaker to come to their door.

Soon a servant came running in, and Ju Lianniang smiled and said, "Here we are."

When the young servant rushed in quickly, the two hurriedly looked behind him, but saw that the matchmaker was not following him, and the young servant was so nervous that he reported incoherently: "Madam, Concubine Hui, Madam sent someone to invite you into the palace, Madam .”

Ju Lianniang stood up abruptly: "You mean Concubine Hui invited me into the palace?"

The boy nodded vigorously.

The couple felt very strange now, why did Concubine Hui go to the palace for no reason?

Ju Lian's father hurriedly asked the boy: "Where is the caller?"

"Return to the master, the housekeeper is coming here, let the little one come first and let me know, the master and wife are ready."

As soon as the boy finished speaking, they saw the butler leading a father-in-law into the courtyard.

Julian's parents hurriedly welcomed the father-in-law into the house.The father-in-law announced the will of Concubine Hui in a shrill voice, and told Ju Lianniang to pack up and follow him into the palace to see the empress.

Ju Lianniang had no choice but to follow the father-in-law into the palace amid anxiety.As soon as she left, the servant girl came with the matchmaker, but she saw General Wang sitting alone in the room, and the wife was not there.The matchmaker saluted, and wanted to explain her intentions, but General Wang interrupted her and said that she understood, but the matter had to be rescheduled, because the wife had just been called into the palace.

So the matchmaker resigned and left, and Ju Lian's father was left to walk around the room in a panic. He usually didn't have much contact with the emperor's favorite concubine, but he suddenly called his wife, why?is it good or bad?He was really anxious.

Housekeeper Xiao sent his wife and father-in-law away and returned, his master immediately asked him if he had asked his father-in-law just now?The butler said he had inquired, but the father-in-law was very tight-lipped and didn't reveal anything.

The general was even more anxious now, with thick eyebrows raised on his black and red face, lips pursed, and he was hopping around the room.

"Master, don't worry, maybe it's a good thing?"

"Good thing? Damn, why do I have a bad premonition?" The general muttered in his heart, his wife is his most cherished, so don't make any mistakes, otherwise...

He was a little afraid to think about it, and forced himself to stop thinking.

The seven-foot man who shed blood but not tears on the battlefield is now full of tenderness, worrying about his wife blindly, and praying in his heart that she is safe and well.

Here, Ju Lianniang has been brought into the Yude Palace of Concubine Hui, and her father-in-law has returned and left.The palace lady led her into a room, invited her to sit down, served her tea respectfully, and Ju Lianniang's heart beating like a drum was slightly at ease.

The maid's attitude was very good, she smiled politely, Ju Lianniang also smiled back at her, and then the two of them were silent, waiting for the announcement.

After a while, another maid's voice came from outside the door: "Mrs. Wu, this way please."

Immediately afterwards, a court lady and another lady came in, and Ju Lianniang took a look, she was the wife of Mr. Wu, the Minister of Zhongshu.

Madam Wu raised her eyes and greeted her immediately: "Madam Wang is here?"

The two ladies were fairly acquainted, so they sat together and communicated in a low voice.Ju Lianniang asked in a low voice: "Madam Wu was also called into the palace this morning?"

"Yeah, I just don't know why Concubine Hui suddenly announced to see me?"

"Me too, completely clueless."

The two were at a loss, but they finally had a companion, said some reassuring words to each other, supported each other and waited for Concubine Hui to see her.

Unexpectedly, a voice suddenly shouted outside the door: "Concubine Hui, Empress Feng is here!"

The two ladies stood up abruptly, and walked towards the door to greet them.

Before Concubine Hui arrived, her soft voice came first: "Have you served the two ladies well?"

Some palace maids should claim that the slaves and maidservants obeyed the mother's oral instructions and have already arranged for the two wives.

Ju Lianniang and Mrs. Wu stepped out of the threshold and walked a few steps forward, and the empress Huifei was already in front of her.The two hurriedly bowed and saluted, Concubine Hui smiled brightly: "You two ladies are welcome, don't be reserved in front of me, just be more casual."

Concubine Hui led the way into the room with the maid's hand, and then offered seats to the two ladies.

Ju Lianniang looked up at Concubine Hui, she was full of joy and seemed to be in a good mood.Concubine Hui is wearing a light yellow dress with large sleeves today, with a long flowing silk belt tied around her waist. There are exquisite and complicated embroidery on the sleeves and skirt. Sitting on the soft couch, her belly can be seen Weilong is about three months pregnant.

Look at her cloud-like black hair with a huge carved gold hairpin, bead rings hanging on her ears, fair skin like snow, eyebrows like distant mountains, eyes like treasures, red lips that are rosy and shiny.The whole person is charming and beautiful, and the light is dazzling.

I heard that this empress is Princess Xirong, but her appearance is not much different from that of the people of this dynasty, and she is proficient in the culture and customs of this dynasty. She is also shrewd and talented. If she loses her mind, her holy family will never fade.

Ju Lianniang can only feel that the empress is worthless in her heart, the emperor now only sees the newcomers laughing, but how can he hear the old ones cry.

At this time, Concubine Hui said: "I invite the two ladies into the palace today, because I have a great news to announce."

Ju Lianniang and Mrs. Wu looked at each other, they couldn't figure out what Concubine Hui was going to say, so they could only laugh and listen.

"I know that the two ladies are very curious, so I won't excuse you. Let's get straight to the point. I am going to be a matchmaker today, to match you two."
