Chapter 52 and the wedding ceremony

The days of Jiji are getting closer and closer. Recently, for some unknown reason, there have been frequent cases of thieves and robbers in Zhongzhou.

Chu Qingyun was caught up in business, and Jiji had to wait until the last two days to buy the things Jiji was supposed to buy.

The day before Jiji, Chu Qingyun received the queen's order that she would come to attend the Jiji ceremony in person the next day, her face darkened, and the empress was serious.

In ancient times, Jiji, apart from his father and parents, would usually invite a female elder with virtue and ability. Chu Qingyun originally wanted to invite Mrs. Wei's wife to be the guest of honor, but now that the empress has ordered it, she can only give up.

The empress gave a lot of things according to her will, jewelry accounted for half of them, and they entered through the gate of the Chu family.

The common people at the gate pointed and seemed to agree with the empress's actions, and their words were not as fierce as before. What's more, their resentment towards the prince dissipated a lot.

Chu Qingyun frowned, could it be that the queen was playing with this hand?

To show her kindness to win the hearts of the people?Just that simple?
Chu Qingyun looked at the box like flowing water, and it was the first time that she lost her desire to see money and treasures. Things were not that simple, and her uneasiness grew more and more.

Nowadays, we can only see the tricks.

The next day, Mrs. Bai got up her spirits and went out to meet the guests. This was the first time that her mother, Mrs. Bai, had held a large-scale ceremony since Chu Hancheng left.

Although her mother Bai's complexion is still not very good, but Chu Qingyun can tell that her mother is very fond of her Jiji.

Today, if there hadn't been a big mess, she definitely couldn't ruin her mother's heart.

Chu Qingyun wrote down the very cumbersome procedures of welcoming guests, opening ceremony, and three prostrations, and waited patiently in the room.

Holding the hairpin given by the queen, Zhiqing hesitated and said, "Girl, this hairpin looks old-fashioned and doesn't suit girls at all."

Chu Qingyun waved her hand nonchalantly: "Put it on, the empress gave it to you, even if you don't want it, you still have to wear it."

There was a commotion in the yard, Zhiqing looked through the window: "Girl, I remember Madam didn't invite too many people, why is the yard so chaotic?"

Chu Qingyun frowned and adjusted the position of the hairpin, and said slowly: "It's just some people who follow the wind and move the rudder. Now that they see the Queen's favor, they come here one after another. The Chu Mansion suffered disaster that day, except for Wei Lao and the army. Lieutenant general, who ever said a word for the Chu family?"

"The girl doesn't have to worry now, the eldest son and the second son also have support."

Chu Qingyun shook her head and said nothing.

At noon, the empress came late, the mother hated the prince, so naturally she hated her, but she had to do something to save face, and welcomed the empress to the seat.

Chu Qingyun came slowly, and was sitting facing east. Her mother, Mrs. Bai, presented the empress with a ropa. The empress had a smile in her eyes, and she seemed to be in a very good mood.

She walked up to Chu Qingyun with her lips raised, and Yang Nanny beside her said loudly, "It's an auspicious day, and you will start to add yuan clothes. Abandon your young ambitions, and follow your success. Shoukao Weiqi, Jieer Jingfu."

The queen picked up the comb and combed Chu Qingyun lightly three times, got up and returned to her original position.

Chu Qingyun got up and bowed to her mother Bai Shi, and the second bow was supposed to be to the Empress Zhengbin, when Chu Qingyun suddenly raised her brows and eyes lightly.

Chu Qiuchi emerged from the crowd, and placed the spirit tablet of his father Chu Hancheng beside his mother Bai.

Chu Qingyun's red lips parted slightly: "Empress Empress, forgive Qingyun for being unreasonable, my father died tragically, and now I am in Jiji, I want to ask my father to witness, and please Empress Empress, for the sake of my filial piety, allow me to pay my respects to father again. "

The queen's face turned livid, she leaned on the grand teacher's chair, and looked at Chu Qingyun with burning eyes.

Chu Qingyun looked forward to meet her without any fear, she just wanted to test how far the queen could go?
The whole audience fell silent, and just when everyone thought that Chu Qingyun was going to be in trouble, the corner of the queen's mouth suddenly raised: "Qingyun is full of filial piety, so I naturally have to agree."

When Chu Qingyun sank, the empress had to hold back her tricks to achieve this level.

Now that she is framed here, she has no choice but to proceed.

The ceremony of Jiji was finally over at the end of the day, Chu Qingyun was sitting at the banquet, and the women of the aristocratic families around her were divided into two factions with clear boundaries, one group was eager to curry favor with her, wishing to bring out all the stories of relatives from the previous life talk about it.

The faction headed by Lan Chuchu gathered into a group, not knowing what was going on.

Chu Qingyun's thoughts today are all about the queen, drinking wine every now and then, perfunctory these rich girls.

"Miss Chu, what embroidery method do you usually like?"

"Huashan Sword Art."

"Miss Chu, what kind of tea do you like to drink on weekdays, Longjing or Baihao?"

"Daughter is red."

"Miss Chu, what kind of flowers do you usually like?"

"Pine and cypress."

"Miss Chu, do you have a favorite rouge shop?"

"No."

……

Zhiqing came over in a hurry, Chu Qingyun's eyes locked, and she stood up: "Sisters, I'll go back as soon as I go."

As he spoke, he pulled Zhiqing behind the rockery: "But what did you find?"

Before Zhiqing opened her mouth, she only heard Nanny Yang coughing loudly.

"The empress has something to say, all family members, please stop for a moment."

All the people stood up, bowed their heads respectfully and waited for the Queen's instruction, Chu Qingyun could only drag Zhiqing out from behind the rockery and mixed in with the crowd.

But with the golden hairpin Xianyang on her head, the queen saw her at a glance.

Nanny Yang took out a golden scroll from her bosom: "Chu Qingyun, the daughter of the Chu family, is gentle and virtuous, with outstanding appearance. She is on the day of her birthday, when double happiness comes to her family. Today, the Dongjiannan family has twenty to five sons." , when it is time for marriage, Qingyun and the only son of the Nan clan can be said to be a match made in heaven and earth, and they are the beauty of a beautiful woman, so I specially betroth Chu Qingyun to the only son of the Nan clan."

Chu Qingyun's fingers turned blue, the queen took so much trouble, it turned out that it was to meddle in her marriage.

This is to get rid of her early, and then attack the Chu family?Or plan to kill two birds with one stone?
Chu Qingyun knew it was a trap, but she couldn't refuse it. The Queen's posture was full, and she didn't know what to do if she refused, and it was difficult for the Chu family to gain a foothold in Zhongzhou.

If she does not refuse, Chu Qingyun's heart shudders, no, she must not use her marriage as a joke.

Chu Qingyun accepted the queen's order with a smile on her face, and kept thinking about how to get out of the predicament.

But at this time, everyone present was silent, and no one thought that Chu Qingyun would not only get the hairpin given by the queen, but also get the queen's finger marriage.

Although there are no officials in the Dongjian Nan family, the ancestors of the Nan family are the aunt of the empress, and they can be regarded as relatives of the emperor.

Everyone was a little more polite to Chu Qingyun than when General Chu was around.

Chu Qingyun was used to seeing people behave differently in front of others and behave differently in front of others, treating all kinds of officials and ladies from aristocratic families, neither approaching nor alienating them.
