Besides, after Zhou Yuanzhi and the Prince of Yanping finished their lunch, they prepared to return to the inn.
The inn was just in the direction of the City Patrol Office, so it was on the way. Prince Yanping and Tang Ze and others decided to send Zhou Yuanzhi back to the inn.
As a result, many servants were waiting outside the inn. When they saw Zhou Yuanzhi, their eyes were like hungry wolves seeing meat, which made Zhou Yuanzhi's scalp tingle.
The servants swarmed over and wanted to deliver the visiting card to Zhou Yuanzhi, inviting him to come over for tea.
Zhou Yuanzhi had never seen such a scene. Although he participated in the Spring Examination, Young Master Zhao had already been engaged, so there would be no such scene. In addition, he failed the exam and was in a low mood. He left Kyoto that day, so even if there was, he would not be able to see him.
I didn’t know what to do at that moment.
Tang Ze whipped the horse whip and the horse took Zhou Yuanzhi away.
The servants couldn't catch up with the horse's four legs even after running two blocks, so they could only watch the man disappear from their sight.
Zhou Yuanzhi slowed down after making sure no one was catching up. Tang Ze and the others rode over and Zhou Yuanzhi thanked Tang Ze, "Thank you for what you did just now."
Tang Ze smiled and said, "I don't think you can go back to the inn, I will arrange a quiet place for you to stay."
Zhou Yuanzhi hesitated, "This..."
Tang Ze said, "Don't worry, my daughter from the Duke of Tan's mansion will never have trouble finding a husband. If you really don't want to, I won't force you."
Zhou Yuanzhi felt a little embarrassed. The Prince of Yanping smiled and said, "Don't be polite with us. If you don't want to live in the courtyard that Tang Ze arranged for you, I can arrange the same for you."
No matter which inn they stayed in, the result would be the same, so Zhou Yuanzhi thanked Tang Ze and accepted his arrangement.
Tang Ze tried hard not to laugh.
Living in the territory of the Duke of Tan’s Mansion, how could I not become his brother-in-law?
Tang Ze sent Zhou Yuanzhi to the small courtyard, and asked the servant to go to the inn to find Zhou Yuanzhi's servant and bring him to the small courtyard.
Many ministers wanted to win over Zhou Yuanzhi, but they couldn't find him. Not only could they not find the servants, but even the people sent by the court to deliver the top scholar costume for Zhou Yuanzhi's parade could not be found. They didn't know where to deliver it, because the last time they saw Zhou Yuanzhi, he was with the Prince of Yanping and others. Only after they found the Prince of Yanping did they find the courtyard where they could stay.
The small courtyard belongs to the Mansion of the Duke of Tan, so those ministers gave up the idea of marrying off their daughters. It must be said that the Mansion of the Duke of Tan has good means.
The next day, the top three candidates rode horses in a parade through the streets.
Seeing Zhou Yuanzhi, the runner-up and third place winners congratulated him, "Congratulations, Brother Zhou, on finding your ideal partner. From now on, you will have a bright future and rise to the top."
Zhou Yuanzhi, "......???"
Find a good match?
Where did this begin?
Zhou Yuanzhi said hurriedly, "Nothing..."
Tanhua laughed and said, "Brother Zhou has already moved into the courtyard of the Duke of Tan's mansion, so why did you hide it from us?"
Zhou Yuanzhi, "……!!!"
He lived in the small courtyard arranged for him by the eldest son of the Duke of Tan's Mansion, but he was not engaged to any of the girls in the Duke of Tan's Mansion.
Unfortunately, no matter how he explained, no one believed him.
Just think of it as not being formally engaged. After all, a child's marriage is decided by the parents and the matchmaker. Only after the two families have exchanged tokens of love can the marriage be formally settled.
Zhou Yuanzhi wanted to cry but had no tears.
He and the second and third place winners rode horses in a parade through the streets. Many ladies from well-off families watched them from the buildings on both sides and threw sachets of perfume at them.
Usually the most money is thrown to the top scorer, but this time the most money is thrown to the third place.
It's not that his child is not as good-looking as the Tanhua scholar's. His appearance is not inferior to the Tanhua scholar's. It's just that everyone thinks that he is engaged and has a boyfriend. There are few girls in the Duke of Tan's mansion in Kyoto who can compete with him. But the Tanhua scholar is not engaged yet, and he is also good-looking, so he has to try his best to get him married.
Zhou Yuanzhi was riding on horseback, feeling both high-spirited and exhausted.
However, what made him even more exhausted was yet to come.
After they finished riding horses and parading through the streets, Tang Ze found him and cursed, "These people are really idiotic. Just because you live in my small courtyard of the Duke of Tan's Mansion, they think you agree to be my son-in-law."
Zhou Yuanzhi hurriedly said, "I'm glad Brother Tang didn't misunderstand."
Tang Ze looked at him and said expressionlessly, "I didn't misunderstand, but people's words are scary."
The Prince of Yanping patted Zhou Yuanzhi on the shoulder and said, "If you explain it to others, will anyone believe you?"
Zhou Yuanzhi shook his head, looking depressed.
Tang Ze looked melancholy, "My fourth sister went out to watch your parade, and as soon as she stepped onto the street, she was misunderstood as being engaged to you. She ran back home in shame, and now she's really worried about getting married."
He looked at Zhou Yuanzhi, and Zhou Yuanzhi felt that he had ruined the reputation of the daughter of the Duke of Tan's mansion and was guilty of a heinous crime.
Zhou Yuanzhi, "..."
He obviously didn't do anything.
He didn't even know which way the gate of the Duke of Tan's mansion faced.
The Prince of Yanping and Lu Cheng were also looking at Zhou Yuanzhi, as well as Du Chengan who knew nothing but followed suit.
Zhou Yuanzhi felt at a loss as to what to do, and then something suddenly occurred to him, "Then, then I should marry your sister?"
well.
Tang Ze patted Zhou Yuanzhi on the shoulder and said, "I knew my father might make the wrong choice, but Brother Yun and Brother Shen wouldn't."
"He is indeed a responsible person."
The servant stood aside, his mouth twitching.
If the master heard this, he would definitely beat the young master with a feather duster.
Just as she was complaining in her heart, she heard Tang Ze said, "Go tell my father that the marriage is settled."
The servant agreed and hurried to report the good news.
Watching the servant running away and Tang Ze smiling, Zhou Yuanzhi had an indescribable feeling in his heart. Did he just get sold out and help others count money?
How could he be so worthy as to marry the daughter of the Duke of Shangguo?
After the parade on horseback, the Ministry of Rites held a Qionglin Banquet for the Jinshi.
After a few days of excitement, it was the day for Princess Yong'an of Prince Cheng's Mansion to get married.
Prince Cheng is the Emperor's half-brother, and Princess Yong'an is the Empress Dowager's favorite princess. When she got married, all the civil and military officials came to congratulate her. Even though Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan knew that Prince Cheng was not a good man, when Princess Yong'an got married, Shen Wan sent her dowry a few days in advance. On the day of her wedding, Xie Jingyan ordered people to send four loads of dowry.
Almost all the princes, dukes, lords and ministers sent gifts, not to mention the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and Princess Huyang.
Ten miles of red makeup, a gorgeous bridal robe, what a glorious wedding.
Shen Wan was not feeling well and did not go to General Cui's mansion to attend the wedding banquet, but Xie Jingyan went.
It was almost evening when Xie Jingyan came back from the wedding banquet. He reeked of alcohol. Shen Wan was disgusted by him and pushed him, saying, "Go take a shower."
Xie Jingyan said, "Give me a kiss and I'll leave."
Shen Wan kissed him on the cheek, and Xie Jingyan said, "This kiss is too perfunctory."
Shen Wan scolded him, and just when she was about to kiss him again, Dong'er came in. Seeing this scene, she quickly turned her back and prepared to leave.
Shen Wan called her, "What do you want to report?"
Dong'er didn't dare to turn around, and said with her back to him, "Doctor He is dead..."
Why did Doctor He die suddenly?
When she died in her previous life, Doctor He was still alive and well.
Shen Wan asked, "How did he die?"
Dong'er shook her head. "The cause of death has not been found yet. It was said that the queen was unwell. Doctor He went to see the queen. When he came out of Fengyi Palace and passed by the Imperial Garden, he suddenly fell to the ground and died..."
