The Empress Dowager

Chapter 229
The next day, Eunuch Lu, the chief eunuch, took the imperial decree to the General's Mansion to read it out, which probably meant that Nangong Lin would be bestowed on Song Yelei as his wife, so that the General's Mansion could not neglect it and choose a date to get married.

Song Yelei didn't change his expression after receiving the imperial decree. Although he wanted to marry Nangong Yue, but thinking about it, Nangong Lin's taste is still good!Besides, what woman can't he want?So to him, Nangong Lin's marriage is not a big threat to him.

After Eunuch Lu left, General Song glared at Yan angrily: "Look, when Mrs. Zhen Guohou came to see you yesterday, you were sarcasm and annoyed him. Tell me, do you disagree with Miss Nangong being the wife?" ?
Now that the imperial decree has come down, the empress is the sister of Mrs. Zhen Guohou, you said, my sister is angry, can my sister let it?What a no-brainer, make me mess up! "

"My lord, it's all my fault for being confused for a while..." Yan's face was full of grievances, she was all for Ye Lei, who could think so much about the rest?
General Song patted Yan Shi's hand, and said: "Okay, I also know that you are doing it for Ye Lei, so let's forget about this matter this time. When Miss Nangong gets married, you have to treat her well. "

Yan's eyes flickered: "Understood, master."

Regarding the marriage between Nangong Lin and Song Yelei, Nangong Yue didn't have too many surprises.

On this day, Gu Tianhao invited Nangong Yue to race a horse. Did Nangong Yue readily agree? The two rode fast horses and galloped towards Chang'an Street.

Unexpectedly, there were suddenly many beggars in ragged clothes on the bustling streets in the past. Nangong Yue slowed down and frowned. When did there become so many beggars on Chang'an Avenue?It's really pitiful to see them old and young.

People on the street said that they were disaster victims from other places. Due to the severe drought, the crops they planted in their fields had no harvest. They had to bring their families and mouths to the capital to beg for food.

Gu Tianhao also slowed down his horse, and said, "Little Mao'er, there are so many people here, it seems we have to change the route."

As Gu Tianhao said, he looked at the victims who were begging for food with their bowls, his black eyes sank.

"Sister, my sister is sick, can you give me something to eat?"

At this moment, a six or seven-year-old boy walked up to Nangong Yue and said timidly.Nangong Yue stopped the horse quickly, looked at the little boy with eyes, then looked away for a moment, and asked, "Where is your sister?"

"My sister is there." The little boy quickly pointed not far away, and saw a three or four-year-old girl lying in the arms of an old woman. Although the little girl's face was dirty, Nangong Yue You can still see the sickness on the little girl's face.

And the old woman also looked sickly.

Nangong Yue looked away, turned over and got off the horse, and said, "What's your name?"

"My name is Gouwa." The little boy was a little puzzled, but he still said his name.

Nangong Yue touched Gouwa's small head and said, "Gouwa, you wait here, sister will buy some delicious food from you."

"Okay." Gouwa nodded, walked to the resting place not far away where the old woman and the little girl were resting, sat down, and said something to the old woman happily.

The old woman didn't speak, just smiled bitterly.

Nangong Yue knew the meaning of the old woman's bitter smile, and she thought that the old woman didn't believe that she would come back again.

Nangong Yue came to the steamed stuffed bun shop, bought some steamed stuffed buns, wrapped them in oiled paper, and prepared them for the grandparents and grandsons.

"Little cat, you are really kind. There are so many victims in Chang'an Street, how many can you help?" Gu Tianhao asked, leading the horse and following Nangong Yue.

"Help as many as you can, it's better than watching those victims suffer." Nangong Yue said lightly.
