Chapter 545 Is this reasonable?
Kong Hongtai's eyelids twitched. What kind of calamity was this? How did it happen to him? Using dragon energy to deduce? Do you take me, the Duke of Yansheng, for a fool?
Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly thought of his guess yesterday and stopped talking.
It is impossible to say that this action of the Great Illusionary was not done without the emperor's instruction. This matter is not a big deal, but it is not a small matter either. How could the Great Illusionary dare to make the decision on his own?
But if it was the emperor's intention, then what exactly the emperor wanted to do is intriguing...
After thinking for a while , Kong Hongtai stepped forward and grabbed Taoist Zhang, "Old Immortal, you owe me a life..."
Seeing Kong Hongtai's half-smile, Taoist Zhang laughed, "Hahaha, no problem, no problem!"
The two thousand-year-old foxes looked at each other and then parted ways.
Kong Hongtai led a grand procession and headed straight for Ningguo Mansion. When he arrived at the gate of Ningguo Mansion, he saw the old prince, Prince An, coming towards him with a smile on his face and a procession of processions. As expected, Zhang Jizong was not beside Prince An.
"Old Prince, please?"
"No, no, no, please, Duke Yansheng!"
"The old prince is of noble status, so please go first!"
"Duke Yansheng is a Confucian sage. Please come first!"
The two old guys obviously didn't want to talk about this kind of thing first, so they just gave way to each other at the door.
The doorman had already gone to announce the news, and soon Jia Zheng came out to greet them. "Greetings to the old prince, greetings to the Duke of Yansheng, come in!"
Although the Jia family was not required to show up today, they were not idle. They had cleaned up the ancestral hall since yesterday, and everything in the mansion was also tidied up. They were just waiting for the marriage envoy and the letter recipient to deliver the engagement letter, and then they would open the ancestral hall and offer sacrifices to the ancestors to ask for good or bad luck.
Since Jia Cong is not at home, Jia Zheng, the second uncle in charge of the West Mansion, will of course come to help.
Moreover, not only Jia Zheng was there, the old lady was also waiting in Ningzheng Hall, and elders from the side branches, including Jia Daixiu, had also been invited over.
The clan leader will personally marry and hold a ceremony to open the ancestral hall, which is a major event for the whole family.
The two old men, who were over a hundred years old in total, looked at each other, and then walked into Ningguo Mansion together.
The ceremonial procession stopped directly in the front yard and was received by someone. Jia Zheng, with a happy face, greeted Duke Yansheng and Prince An all the way to Ningzheng Hall.
The old lady, accompanied by Xing and You, was waiting outside the Ningzheng Hall. When she saw Jia Zheng welcoming the two of them, she was stunned. How could there be only two marriage envoys? Today's protagonist, the book recipient, where had he gone?
Although he was suspicious, he could only welcome them in first. Moreover, with these two people coming, there was also the dignity of the royal family, so there was no need to worry about anyone causing trouble or causing any mistakes.
"Greetings to the old prince, and thank you for your help, Lord Yansheng!" The old lady smiled and led the two into the main hall.
The host and the guest sat down, and Grandmother Jia had tea served to them, and then they began to chat. However, after two or three cups of tea, neither of the two old men mentioned any business.
In desperation, Grandmother Jia had to take the initiative to speak, "Today, I have troubled you two nobles to make a trip because of my grandson's matter. I wonder if everything goes well?"
Duke Yansheng smiled and said, "Of course everything went well!"
After saying that, he picked up the tea and took a sip, even closing his eyes slightly and shaking his head, as if he was enjoying the beauty of the fragrant tea!
The old feudal lord who was waiting for the second half of the conversation waited in vain, and the old prince was so angry that he almost threw the teacup in his hand!
"No wonder people say that scholars are shameless. If even the Kong family is like this, how can their disciples be any better!" Prince An thought with gritted teeth.
However, now he couldn't shirk responsibility. Furthermore, before coming here, his nephew, the retired emperor, and his grandnephew, the emperor, had already explained to him that while he was of a higher generation, they were still the main line. Wanting a stable life and wanting his descendants to live a more comfortable life, he had no choice but to accept it.
"Haha!" Prince An laughed dryly before saying, "Well... His Majesty has sent Immortal Dahuan and Zhang Jizong as the recipients of the letter. They have already obtained the engagement letters ."
"This marriage was originally arranged by His Majesty's decree. Now that the two Great Illusions have been ordered to divine the good and bad fortune, we naturally dare not neglect it."
"Marquis Guanjun is now fighting for the imperial court. His fate is not only linked to his own, but also to the fate of the entire nation. Divining his fortune is naturally difficult. Therefore, Immortal Dahuan is using the dragon energy of the two majesties to perform divination in the palace! Therefore, the female Geng Tie is also required, so that the divination can be successful."
"So, um... the naming ceremony has been completed, and the engagement letter has been obtained. However, it has been taken to the palace by Immortal Dahuan and Zhang Jianzheng for divination. Once the divination is completed, it will be immediately sent back to your residence."
The old lady looked at the calm Kong Hongtai and the serious Prince An, and her face was full of questions! She felt that this old man was deceiving her, but she had no evidence...
This reason is indeed sufficient, but why does she always feel that something is wrong?
"Then may I ask, old prince, when will this engagement letter be delivered?"
"Of course, this will have to wait until the Great Illusionary Immortal completes his divination. As for the timeframe...it could be as early as a month, or as late as two or three months. Don't worry, it won't be too late."
Look, is this human language?
…
The Longxing Emperor naturally didn't bother to pay attention to Mrs. Jia's thoughts. After all, his own goal had been achieved, so why would he want to have anything to do with him? Could it be that the Jia family could still come to him and snatch the engagement letter back?
Holding two engagement letters wrapped in red silk, Emperor Longxing went straight to Fengzao Palace with a smile on his face to present the treasures to his queen.
"Queen, look what I brought you."
The Empress was obviously waiting as well. Seeing Emperor Longxing approaching, she quickly stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, have the birth certificates for the two children arrived?"
"That's right. What do you think? I told you it can be done!" Emperor Longxing said proudly.
"Your Majesty is so powerful!"
The praise from his own queen almost made Emperor Longxing feel elated.
"Your Majesty, this requires the advice of our ancestors. Now that Xiao He'er has not returned to the royal family, what should we do?"
"Don't worry, Queen. We still have our father! I'll go to Daming Palace now. Our son is his grandson, how can he not care?"
The Queen nodded in satisfaction. "Then Your Majesty, please go. Hui'er has personally made your favorite butter puff pastry rolls and is waiting for your return to eat!"
Emperor Longxing waved his hand domineeringly, "I'll be back soon!"
Looking at the emperor's back as he walked away quickly, the queen smiled sweetly. Having an emperor husband who cared about her and having Xiao He'er was the happiest thing.
As for this matter, the retired emperor agreed immediately. Naturally, the marriage of his grandson had to be approved by his ancestors. What kind of ancestors were those two old guys Jia Yuan and Jia Yan?
