Chapter 441 Marriage to the Nine Princes
Imperial decree?
"Does everyone in the family have to be present?" Wei Ruo asked.
"The imperial envoy from the palace who came to read the imperial decree called and asked Miss to go and receive the order." The servant girl said urgently, "Hurry up, Miss, the old lady has already gone!"
This is such an important matter, the Zhongyi Bofu does not know how many years there has been no imperial decree.
The last imperial decree to marry Wei Qingwan was sent to the General's Mansion in Taizhou Prefecture, and now the rest of the family have not responded to the imperial envoy sent by the palace for a long time.
Therefore, everyone in the Wei family attaches great importance to it, and even the servants in the mansion are very nervous.
Hearing that she was called to go, Wei Ruo didn't know why she had a bad premonition.
Wei Ruo agreed after thinking for a while, "I see, I'll be here right away."
Wei Ruo tidied up his clothes and makeup, then opened the door, followed the maid waiting for him at the door to the front hall.
In the spacious and bright hall, Mrs. Wei, Mrs. Wei, Wei Minghong, Mo Shi, Wei Mingyong, Bai Shi and Yun Shi have all arrived.
And everyone was dressed very formally, with solemn makeup and serious expressions. Even Wei Ruo could see obvious tension on the faces of Wei Minghong, Wei Mingyong, Mo Shi and Bai Shi.
Wei Jiaer has seen the world, so he is much calmer.
Mr. Yun has also seen more in recent years, and has also received people from the palace, so he behaves much calmer and more relaxed than the other two families.
Among the grandchildren, only Wei Ruo came.
After Wei Ruo arrived at the scene, the imperial envoy began to read the imperial edict.
Everyone in the Wei family knelt down and listened to the content of the imperial decree in awe.
Wei Ruo, who was called, knelt at the front, listening with complicated emotions.
When the imperial envoy said "Give marriage to the Nine Princes", Wei Ruo's heart suddenly thumped.
Why is this happening?
Why did the emperor marry her, the insignificant and declining daughter of the Zhongyi Bofu family, to the favored Ninth Prince?
What's more, the rumors about her are rampant now, even if the emperor has never heard the rumors about her being "Kefu's best son", he would always know about her being divorced by Xuanpinghou's mansion, right?
Then why should she be given to the Ninth Prince whom he loves so much?
Everyone in the Wei family was shocked when they heard the decree.
A girl in the family was married to the sixth prince's side concubine. It was enough to surprise and delight them. They didn't expect that another girl who had been divorced and passed on to Kefu could also be married to the prince. She was still very favored. The concubine of the Nine Princes!
"Miss Wei, accept the order." After the imperial envoy finished reading the imperial order, he called Wei Ruo to accept the order.
"Ruo'er, take the order quickly."
Behind Wei Ruo, Old Master Wei urged, fearing that Wei Ruo's slow response would neglect the imperial envoy.
Wei Ruo got up and took the imperial edict from the imperial envoy.
The edict itself is not heavy, but Wei Ruo feels extremely heavy when holding it in his hand.
Old Master Wei quickly entertained the imperial envoy, who smiled and waved his hands.
"Uncle Wei is blessed, and the two granddaughters are blessed people. In the future, I hope the old uncle will support and support the minister more."
"Don't dare. My lord has worked hard, and the house has prepared a little wine and side dishes, and I would like to ask you to stay for a light meal." Old Mrs. Wei said hastily.
"Uncle Wei is too polite, there is no need to stay for dinner, and I have to go back to the palace to report to the Holy One."
The imperial envoy didn't stay long, and after a few polite words with Mrs. Wei, he left with his people.
As soon as the imperial envoy left, Mrs. Wei came to Wei Ruo and carefully asked Wei Ruo for his imperial edict.
After confirming again and again that the picture above is really Feng Wei Ruo as the concubine of the Ninth Prince, Old Master Wei's eyes were red with joy.
"Our Wei family is going to have a princess! Our Wei family is going to have a princess!"
Although Wei Qingwan was also given a marriage before, she was a side concubine. After all, the difference between a side concubine and a main concubine is much worse.
Mrs. Wei had mixed feelings. She looked at the imperial decree and at Wei Ruo, her old face was full of worry, her brows were ridged with vicissitudes of life, and she seemed to have something to say, but in front of everyone, she still had something to say. Did not say it.
Wei Minghong had a foolish smile on his face, as cheerful as a Maitreya Buddha: "Father, it's all over this time, our Zhongyi Bofu is really about to rise!"
Mo family seconded: "Yes, the happy events in the mansion are really one after another."
Wei Mingyong hurriedly congratulated Wei Ruo: "Congratulations to my niece, you will be a princess in the future, and you will have endless glory and wealth!"
Bai's face was a little embarrassed, and she said to Wei Ruo with a stiff smile: "The eldest niece is really lucky, the ninth prince is the most favored prince nowadays, although he is a little sick, but there are imperial doctors guarding him, it must be You can live a long life, eldest niece, you marry the Ninth Prince, what a great blessing!"
Yun's expression is somewhat similar to Mrs. Wei's, I don't know whether it is more happy or more worried.
After hesitating for a moment, Yun spoke slowly, and asked the old man: "Father, my daughter-in-law heard that the Ninth Prince's health is weak, and he has to keep drinking. If Ruo'er marries him..."
Mr. Yun didn't say the whole thing after that, but everyone knew that Mr. Yun was afraid that Wei Ruo would become a widow after marrying.
Old Mrs. Wei didn't think so: "Third daughter-in-law, don't think too much about it. Although your worries are justified, but think about it, with Ruo'er's reputation outside, what else can she marry? People? Now that she has this blessing from heaven, isnt it a thousand times or ten thousand times better than the other marriage we arranged for her? You still think about what she will do as a widow? Whats more, this is the concubine of the Ninth Prince , even the Ninth Prince..., she can live a life without worrying about food and clothing."
Yun Shi explained: "This reputation is also a problem. My daughter-in-law is afraid that the Ninth Prince's health will not be able to bear it, and then everyone blames Ruo'er for this matter. It really confirms Ruo'er's name as Kefu."
Old Mrs. Wei didn't take it seriously: "You think too much. Everyone in the capital knows the physical condition of the Ninth Prince. If you really want to be young... If you really want to have that kind of situation, you can't blame anyone. What's more, the rumors come before, and the marriage is in the future." Afterwards, our Wei family never concealed it. Even if the situation you mentioned really happened, it has nothing to do with my Wei family."
Yun couldn't refute anymore, but his complexion was still not good. Looking at Wei Ruo with a frown, there was always some discomfort.
Its true that the eldest daughter doesnt get along with each other, and its good not to have a mother-daughter fate, but she is not very willing to let her daughter become a widow like this.
Wei Ruo had no superfluous expressions on her face, and she didn't listen to what everyone said.
She is full of doubts now, and no one in the mansion can answer her doubts.
