Chapter 324 Adding a Cook

The day when Da Gege got married.

Shen Ruochen lowered his head and walked out of the palace bravely. Little Walnut said, "Master, please be happy on this happy day! Otherwise, if others see it, it will be time to gossip again."

Even if I want to be happy, I can’t be happy! Shen Ruochen forced out a smile and said, "Come on, let's go."

The first princess of this dynasty got married, and she was also a legitimate daughter. The ceremony was very grand, and everyone gathered in front of the Baohe Palace.

When they arrived, the emperor and the queen mother had not come out yet. There were only some concubines. When they saw Shen Ruochen coming, they all watched, but no one dared to do it again. Everyone already knew about Concubine Chen's abilities and position in the Emperor's heart, and no one dared to speak.

Only Concubine Chun nodded from a distance, while Concubine Jin stepped forward and asked a few questions. Seeing that Shen Ruochen was still stupid and didn't know people, she didn't feel embarrassed and just said that it would be better to take it slow.

Soon Emperor Yuande, the Queen Mother, and Da Gege came out. Da Gege was accompanied by his second elder brother who was born to the same mother. It could be seen that the second elder brother was very reluctant to give up, and his eyes were already red from crying.

Following the shouts of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, after worshiping the ancestors and paying homage to the ancestors, it is time to read out the dowry list.

"Princess Gu Lun's dowry list includes twenty boxes of South Sea pearls, one hundred and fifty Korean ginsengs... twenty pairs of gold enamel vases, and a golden kingfisher bonsai..."

"The Queen Mother adds makeup..."

"Each concubine in the palace added makeup, the pure imperial concubine added makeup, a pair of gold and jade necklaces; the golden concubine added makeup, two mink fur cloaks; the Rong concubine added makeup, a pair of gold and jade mandarin ducks; the Chen concubine added makeup..."

Shen Ruochen just didn't want to face it, but he couldn't help it, so he had to face it.

Just listen to the eunuch shout loudly, "One cook!"

Everyone present was talking a lot. Shen Ruochen just wanted to stick his head into the cracks of the ground at this moment. It felt like everyone was looking at him, please! I really don’t know if I can read it out loud, or else I can’t… Oops!

The little Walnut behind him also lowered his head, believing that his master gave him this gift! If you don’t tell yourself yet, why wouldn’t you be so embarrassed?

Concubine Jin on the side came over and whispered, "What's wrong with you? You have nothing to tell me. How can you get a cook?"

Shen Ruochen's face was full of embarrassment and he couldn't speak at all.

The eunuch continued to recite, and after he finished reciting, Da Gege followed the rules and came over to thank all the empresses. When he walked to Shen Ruochen, he asked with a smile, "Thank you so much, Concubine Chen, this makeup is really different!" I remember."

"Ah? I...I..." In front of so many people, Shen Ruochen was so fascinated that he actually said bravely, "This cook cooks delicious food. The princess went there. If you miss home, just eat the food from your hometown. I guess It will be much more comfortable.”

"I didn't expect that Concubine Chen would be so considerate of me. She is really thoughtful, but I just don't know if this princess will be embarrassed by the Prince of Mongolia!" Da Gege gritted her molar teeth at the last sentence. Said.

Shen Ruochen was a little embarrassed, but fortunately Emperor Yuan De smoothed things over, "Concubine Chen is really thoughtful, and she seems to care about her children. I must say that of all the gifts, this is the most appreciated!"

With Emperor Yuan De's words, Da Gege had nothing to say. He just whispered in a low voice when Emperor Yuan De was not paying attention, "Concubine Chen, don't be proud, you are still a concubine even if you are favored. I want Your life is also easy!"

"What Da Gege said is going to kill me." Concubine Jin came up to support Shen Ruochen, "How dare you give Concubine Chen a try? Don't forget that the grassland is also my father's world!"

"You!" Da Gege understood what Concubine Jin meant. It was difficult to say anything in the crowd. He glared at Shen Ruochen and returned to Emperor Yuande.

Concubine Jin came over and asked, "Are you okay?"

Shen Ruochen shook his head, "Thank you, sister."

"It's okay. I'll tell you about this girl later."

After a while, the officials of the Ministry of Rites sang loudly: The ceremony is completed! Get married!

As the sound of musical instruments sounded, Da Gege burst into tears. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Emperor Yuande and the Queen Mother, "My child has a long way to go, and I'm afraid I won't be able to fulfill my filial piety by the side of Emperor Ama and the Emperor's grandmother. Please take care of your health and everything is well."

After saying that, he kowtowed to the ground, and many concubines wiped the corners of their eyes with handkerchiefs. They were all women, and they all knew that they might never see this marriage again. The hardship of marrying into a woman's family, I'm afraid...

Emperor Yuande felt a little distressed, tears welling up in his eyes, but he still managed to say, "Good boy, be good, don't forget your responsibilities!"

"Yes, I understand." Da Gege was already crying so much that she couldn't help herself. The second elder brother rushed up and hugged his sister while crying, "Sister, wait until I grow up, and I will pick you up! Just wait for me! "

"Silly brother, okay, sister is waiting for you," Da Gege hugged her brother and told her, "You should take good care of yourself, study seriously, and pay attention to rest. Don't be too stubborn. Don't let sister worry. .”

"Yes, I know!" The second elder brother wiped his tears vigorously and clutched the big clothes tightly to prevent him from leaving.

"Your Majesty, Princess, the time has come..."

"Okay, the auspicious time has arrived and there is no need to delay," Emperor Yuande sighed, "Get in the sedan chair."

"No! No!" The second elder brother cried and refused.

"Second brother, pay attention to the rules. You are a prince. What do you mean by looking like this?" Emperor Yuande scolded.

"My child doesn't want my sister to go!"

Da Gege begged, "Huang Ama, please let your brother send the child outside the capital. It can also be considered as a comfort to the child, okay?"

Emperor Yuande looked at the two poor children and nodded, "You have to come back as soon as you reach the outskirts of Beijing, you know?"

"I know, I know, thank you Emperor Ama!"

"Thank you, Emperor Ama."

Emperor Yuande looked at Da Gege and said, "Good boy, take care along the way. Don't forget to write a letter to Huang Ama to report that you are safe when you arrive."

"Yes!" Da Gege nodded obediently, with tears in her eyes, holding the second elder brother's hand, and turned back three times to get on the wedding sedan.

This wedding sedan is just a look-alike. Once you get out of the palace, you have to change into a carriage. If you carry the sedan all the way to Mongolia, you won't be able to make it in that year!

After sending off Da Gege and everyone dispersed, Emperor Yuan De returned to the Yangxin Hall. Looking at the letter on the table, Emperor Yuan De had long since lost his sadness and was replaced by anger. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Where can I find it?" Has the secret inside been revealed?"

"It has been discovered," the person who spoke was Emperor Yuande's spy, respectfully said, "Your Majesty, please see, the words underneath this letter will appear when it is heated."

This letter is exactly the one the Queen Mother wrote to Da Gege! Now it is in the hands of Emperor Yuande!
