Chapter 1862
Fine, this letter had put Madam Xue’s Inn to good use.
Madam Xue had thought that Gu Nian and Xue qianxun would get married in the capital, so she had set up a very large Inn just for the wedding guests. Now, it was used to receive the guests who were attending Princess Jinghe’s wedding.
At the same time, the Emperor also made Prince Kang and his wife’s adopted daughter, he sanniang, the princess of Kang Ning. He also bestowed the princess’s residence and a marriage to Meng Meng, who had contributed greatly in the destruction of the small countries around kun province.
Meng Meng was now in Yunzhou and was a third-rank military officer.
As for the wedding date, the Emperor did not directly decide on it. He left it to King Kang and consort Kang, who were his foster father and foster mother. He would not let this brother and sister-in-law be idle. I did not have a good time. You were as happy as gods in kunzhou. Why didn’t I find you something to do?
Finally, there was an imperial edict that surpassed Huo Junhao’s.
Huo Junhao and uncle Gu’s plan in South County had been very successful. Now, chunnan County was producing a large amount of grain, vegetables, and fruits. They were also providing a steady stream of seeds to various parts of the great Zhou Dynasty. This was their contribution.
That was why the Emperor promoted Huo Junhao to a rank four official. He was also the youngest rank four official in history. One must know that Huo Junhao was only 18 years old this year and had not yet reached the crown.
The courtiers could all see that the young master of the Huo family would definitely be transferred back to the capital with Princess Jing and her Prince Consort.
Three years later, the young master of the Huo family would only be twenty-one years old. He had a bright future.
Many ministers went home and told their madams to visit the Huo family more often and chat with the Prime Minister’s wife. They told them that the marriage of the Huo family’s young master should be put on the agenda!
The Huo family was not separated. Prime Minister Huo was the head of the family, and his wife managed the harem. She got along well with Qianqian and was able to talk about her nephew’s marriage.
Far away in South County, Huo Junhao had no idea that he was now the ideal son-in-law for all the wealthy ladies in the capital.
At this moment, the capital was busy welcoming the princes and princesses from various countries in the West. Many families had already gone to the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites in the West to inquire about which country was more powerful in the West, how old were the princes and princesses who came, and if there was a possibility of marriage.
The 12th of July was the day chosen by the Warlock to be buried.
Cheng huaijin, Gu Xin, Gu en, and Gu yingxue arrived at the cemetery early in the morning. Everything was ready.
When Cheng huaijin placed the urn of ashes into the tomb, the sky was just beginning to brighten. At the same time, a baby’s cry could be heard from the back residence of the Lin Prefecture’s Yamen.
“Waa ~ waa ~ waa ~”
One after another, the sound was very loud.
The midwife came out with the child. Gu Qingyuan and Gu Nian, who had been waiting the whole night, went up to her. “How’s Madam (aunt)?”
The two of them didn’t see the child immediately. Instead, they asked about Peng Yizhu.
The midwife was stunned for a moment and then said,”Furen is a little weak. She is tired.”
Suddenly, a scream came from the room, ” “Aiya! There’s still one more, one more!”
Everyone looked into the room in unison.
“This, this, how did this happen? This Yingluo ”
Gu Nian and Gu Qingyuan were so worried that they could not take it anymore and rushed into the delivery room.
They saw that the other midwife was holding a thin and small, very thin baby in her hands. She was beating him, but the baby did not make a sound. The midwife was frightened.
Peng Yizhu, who was already exhausted on the bed, looked at the child in the midwife’s hands with worry. Her heart ached.
