Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 388
Chapter 388 Marriage Granted by Emperor Jin
The carriage slowly stopped at the entrance of the Yun Clan. Yun Xiao got off the carriage with Rong Jin and rushed away after sending Yun Xiao into the Yun Clan.
After Yun Xiao entered the Yun Clan, she met Lan Shuya.
When Lan Shuya saw Yun Xiao, she immediately walked over with a chuckle, “Fourth sister, what did you say when you entered the palace today? Did His Majesty grant you and His Highness the wedding?”
Seeing Lan Shuya come over, Chun Lan directly held her in front of Yun Xiao and bowed respectfully to Lan Shuya. Then, she said respectfully, “Young lady refused to grant the marriage. The imperial edict will not come down.”
Lan Shuya did not expect that Yun Xiao would really dare to reject this marriage. Her expression was extremely embarrassing. She only hoped that Yun Xiao would agree to the marriage. Who would have thought that Yun Xiao would actually reject it? She only wished she could tear Yun Xiao apart.
He snorted angrily and turned around to leave.
After she walked far away, Chun Lan looked at Yun Xiao with a surprised expression, “Why is the Young Madam so angry?”
However, no one responded to her. Yun Xiao heard Lan Shuya’s footsteps and coldly snorted. Her expression was extremely embarrassed. She already knew what Lan Shuya meant in her heart, but she did not let her wish come true!
Yun Xiao returned to the manor, ate dinner with Madam Lu and the others, and then went back to rest.
After resting for a few days, the mansion was calm. Lan Shuya had been in the courtyard all this time and did not make any movements. Rong Jin seemed to have suddenly disappeared. The court did not hear any news. It only knew that the Jin Emperor had been nurturing his body. It was as if no one had investigated who was trying to assassinate her.
However, Yun Xiao did not relax her vigilance. These past few days, she had people keep an eye on the actions of various places. Then, she played with the Min siblings and the Xi siblings. Her life was also carefree.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Nian arrived.
There was a nursery rhyme among the people. Twenty-three candy melons were sticky, twenty-four houses were swept, twenty-five milled tofu, twenty-six stewed meat, twenty-seven slaughtered roosters, twenty-eight noodles, twenty-nine steamed buns, thirty nights for a night, twisting on the first day of the new year!
Entering the New Year’s Day, it was not far away from the New Year.
On this day, goose feather snowed heavily in the sky, but the enthusiasm for the New Year made everyone excited.
Yun Xiao was also very happy. Because she couldn’t see it, she could only write a method for the cook to make candy melon sticky according to her own method and give it to the people in the big room and the second room.
Yun Xiao also ate some candy melon stickiness, which was a little better than the previous year’s, but the taste was still a little worse, not as good as her own cooking.
However, it was not bad. Just as he waved his hand to indicate that Chun Mei would take all the things away, he heard a burst of hurried footsteps coming from outside.
She frowned silently. In her courtyard, only Chun Lan and Qing Mo knew that she could speak and hear things. From the sound of these footsteps, it was clear that they belonged to Chun Lan.
After Chun Mei went down, Chun Lan ran over as expected. After entering the room, she immediately closed the door. Ka Ou took a few deep breaths before saying, “Young lady, something bad is going on.”
“What happened?” When Qing Ge heard Chun Lan’s words, a bad thought surged into her heart.
Chun Lan took a few more deep breaths before walking over. As she walked, she said, “When this servant went out to inquire about the news, I heard that a Guards Legion Corps was dispatched from the palace last night. After that, all the people from the Fifth Prince’s Mansion were arrested and sent to prison.”
Yun Xiao’s face also turned slightly pale. “Did you find out why?”
“I heard that the Gu poison in the Jin Emperor’s body is the work of the Fifth Prince.” After Chun Lan heard about the incident with the Fifth Prince, she used a lot of money to find out that it was because she had poisoned the Jin Emperor with the Gu poison.
Yun Xiao frowned tightly. She was certain that the Gu poison was Zhou Jingyan’s, but she did not expect him to frame Zhou Chongyu for the Gu poison.
However, she remembered Zhou Jingyan’s despicable temperament in her previous life. Zhou Chongyu’s heart calmed down. Furthermore, in his previous life, Zhou Chongyu had also died on the body of a beauty. This life was no different from his previous life.
Yun Xiao waved her hand and let Chun Lan go out. Although she didn’t mind, she already knew that Zhou Jingyan had already started to attack.
Now that she had escaped from Zhou Jingyan’s hands again and again, and had rejected the marriage in front of the Jin Emperor, it was unknown how much Zhou Jingyan hated her and wished he could kill her.
She had to be on guard in time.
However, before Yun Xiao could figure out what she wanted to do, she heard a few messy footsteps coming from outside. She frowned slightly and heard Qiushuang shouting from outside, “Fourth Miss, His Majesty has bestowed a marriage on her!”
When Yun Xiao heard the word “bestowed marriage”, her expression changed greatly, and her heart was tightly clenched together.
The Jin Emperor had clearly agreed not to give her to Zhou Jingyan, because if he had her before, he wouldn’t have let her marry any of the princes. Then why did he still grant her a marriage?
Chun Lan looked at Yun Xiao’s pale face and felt a little distressed in her heart. She whispered, “Young lady, do you want this servant to tell you that you are ill and not going out?”
Yun Xiao shook her head. Since the Jin Emperor had bestowed the marriage and issued the imperial edict, this matter could not be refused by her. She had to receive the edict.
Seeing Yun Xiao shake her head, Qing Mo and Chun Lan could only help Yun Xiao out. Qing Mo really wanted to write about the marriage bestowed by the Jin Emperor to Rong Jin, but when he remembered that she was Yun Xiao’s person now, he could only suppress this thought.
Qiushuang saw Yun Xiao outside the door and greeted her respectfully with a strange expression. “This servant greets Fourth Young Lady.”
Originally, the matter of the Jin Emperor bestowing marriage on Yun Clan’s fourth young miss was a very good thing for Yun Clan. However, after experiencing the rumors a few days ago, no one knew whether the matter of bestowing marriage was good news or bad news for Yun Xiao.
Yun Xiao nodded and followed everyone to the main courtyard.
There were already many people waiting in the main courtyard. All the masters of the Yun Clan had come out, even the Yuan Clan and Sun Clan, who were still ill, had come out at the same time.
Madam Lu stepped forward and held Yun Xiao’s small hand. Her expression was worried, and she didn’t know if she should be happy or worried.
Yun Xiaohui shook Madam Lu’s hand and nodded at her, letting her rest assured. Only then did she chuckle.
When Eunuch Wei saw that everyone was already here, he said loudly, “Since the fourth young lady has come, let’s accept the decree!”
Yun Xiao did not expect that Eunuch Wei would personally come. Her expression was also filled with shock for a moment, but she still knelt down with Madam Lu.
Eunuch Wei came this time with a total of two imperial edicts. The first imperial edict said that this year’s Emperor Shang had landed in the Yun Clan. Congratulations.
When the Yun Family heard this, their expressions changed slightly, but they still had to thank Eunuch Wei respectfully.
Eunuch Wei also complimented her and took out a second imperial edict and began to read, “Fengtian Chengyun, the Emperor’s edict! Yun Clan’s four young ladies are gentle and refined, and they are extraordinarily intelligent … They have specially bestowed Yun Clan’s four young ladies, Yunxiao, to Rong Rong Jin as their wives!”
Yun Xiao only felt a loud buzzing sound in her mind.
Rong Jin … Rong Jin …
He had actually bestowed her marriage on Rong Jin!
Yun Xiao’s heart was slightly stunned, but most of them were still shocked. There was still a trace of joy in the depths of her heart, but very quickly, the joy of torture disappeared, and endless worry and rejection surged up.
Rong Jin was the prince of Country of Xiyue and also the future Yue Emperor. If the emperor of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were to marry him, this matter would definitely become the heaviest joke in history.
In this way, in order not to embarrass Country of Xiyue, Rong Jin would definitely refuse to marry him!
Perhaps after not seeing Rong Jin for such a long time, perhaps Rong Jin had already returned to Country of Xiyue and would not appear in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. At that time, she, Yun Xiao, would also be called the most delightful joke in the history of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
No matter what, she was the one who was embarrassed in the end.
Not to mention, Yun Xiao had always been rejecting marrying Rong Jin in her heart.
She … didn’t want to marry Rong Jin!
The Yun Family was originally worried. When they heard that Eunuch Wei had actually said that he would marry Yun Xiao to Rong Jin, all the worries on their faces were gone. Only joy remained. They respectfully accepted the imperial edict and gave Eunuch Wei a big red envelope.
Eunuch Wei gave the imperial edict to Yun Maozhe and walked over to Yun Xiao and whispered, “Your Majesty has bestowed the marriage. This servant will first congratulate the fourth young miss. This time, the fourth young miss has made great contributions and is preparing to marry on her behalf. His Majesty is considerate of the fourth young miss, so he temporarily revoked her position as the head of the Imperial Cuisine Royal Cuisine Room.”
After Yun Xiao and Qing Mo told him everything, she saluted Eunuch Wei with her lianren as if she had thanked Eunuch Wei for his intentions.
Yun Maozhe was extremely happy with the Jin Emperor’s imperial edict to marry Yun Xiaozhi to Rong Jin, constantly wanting to retain Eunuch Wei.
Eunuch Wei cupped his hands and said to Yun Maozhe, “This servant still has to go to Young Master Rong’s place to carry out a decree today. I’ll take my leave today.”
After Eunuch Wei left, Madam Lu also turned around and held onto Yun Xiao’s hand. Yun Xiao could not marry the royal family and was going to marry Rong Jin. She was very happy.
Every time something happened to Yun Xiao, Rong Jin was there. In addition, Yun Xiao could not see, could not hear, but Rong Jin did not dislike it. He actively diagnosed and treated Yun Xiao. In addition, when she refused to marry, it was also Rong Jin’s contribution. Rong Jin treated Yun Xiao so sincerely. It was also Yun Xiao’s fortune to be able to marry him.
However, why was He Yunxiao’s expression a little unworried? “Xiaoxiao, don’t you want to marry Rong Jin?”
Yun Xiao nodded and shook her head, her expression a little absent-minded.
Right now, her heart was in a mess. She didn’t know what to do. In addition, she hadn’t seen Rong Jin for so many days. He must have returned to Country of Xiyue, right?
When the time comes, her marriage will be a joke.
Yun Xiao sighed. She couldn’t bear to tell Madam Lu about this. After greeting Madam Lu respectfully, she turned around and left. However, before she could leave, she was blocked by another person.
Yun Xiao furrowed her brows and heard Chun Lan say, “It’s Eldest Young Madam.”
Yun Xiao nodded without saying a word, while Lan Shuya, who was opposite her, had an extremely exciting expression on her face.
Lan Shuya clenched her hands tightly together so that she wouldn’t rush forward and tear Yun Xiao apart.
It was such a good thing to marry into the royal family, but this bitch was actually pushed away just like that! He even extinguished all of his remaining dreams!
