Drunk House Chapter 759

Chapter 759 Postponed (1st update)

Regarding the prince's marriage to Duan Hua, Yan Huisheng didn't write much in the letter, which really made Su Rong curious.

After she folded the letter, she remembered what Zhou Gu had said earlier and glared at him, "Duanhua is very good, why can't she be the Crown Princess? When His Highness the Crown Prince marries, there must be a reason, and it may be true. I think she is suitable."

Zhou Gu glanced at her and refused to argue with her, "Okay, it has nothing to do with us anyway."

Su Rong smiled angrily. Listening to his tone, Duanhua really offended him to death.

She put down the letter and thought for a while, "I haven't written to Duan Hua for a long time. She must be angry with me."

"What are you writing about? You need to rest." Zhou Gu dragged her away, "Have dinner quickly, and then go to bed to rest."

Su Rong said helplessly, "Okay!"

The next day, Su Rong went to the morning court. King Nan Chu glared at her several times. Su Rong stared back. King Nan Chu wanted to say something, but when his daughter stared at him again, he was speechless.

After the morning court, Su Rong and the courtiers went to the meeting hall. Before and after the morning court, they received countless concerns, and asked the princess to take a closer look at her body.

Half a month later, Su Rong received a reply from the eldest wife of the Su family, and Zhou Gu received a letter from the Protectorate at the same time.

The two of them sat opposite each other and read letters under the lamp.

The eldest wife of the Su family asked her in the letter whether the wedding date was set too hastily? After she was busy with the weddings of her six sisters, she probably couldn't even attend to Jiangzhou and had to come to watch the ceremony non-stop.

After reading ten lines at a glance, she asked Zhou Gu, "Why do you have such an expression? What did you say in the letter?"

"My grandfather is old and said he would come with my grandmother and my mother. The letter also said that my sister-in-law was willing to let my mother bring her nephew as well." Zhou Gu was speechless.

Su Ronxiao said, "That's it, show me."

Zhou Gu handed the letter to her.

Su Rong was overjoyed after reading it, "I didn't expect that the old Guo Guo would die so early."

"It's late. My grandfather is already seventy this year." Zhou Gu sighed, "He should have retired a long time ago. If His Majesty hadn't suppressed the prince and suppressed the Duke's government in those years, my grandfather would have wanted to retire a few years ago."

Su Rong sighed, "He's already seventy. A few months ago, the old Duke was at war with the Wei Dynasty. It made me feel that his sword is still young."

She returned the letter to Zhou Gu, "Grandpa also asked you if our wedding was too hasty. What do you think? At such an old age, with my grandmother, mother, and my mother's family members on the way, we can't rush. We are leaving in such a hurry, what if my body and bones can't bear it and I get sick on the way? Otherwise, let's postpone it?”

Zhou Gu sighed, "Okay."

"It's April now. It should have been August. In this case, let's postpone it to the twelfth lunar month of the year!" Su Rong said: "Anyway, the auspicious clothes for the wedding are heavy and heavy. If the weather is too hot, it will be uncomfortable to wear."

“Okay.” Zhou Gu had no objection.

Although he is anxious to get married, the safety of his family members is more important.

So, on the next day, the old minister of the Ministry of Rites received a message from the concubine, saying that the wedding date was postponed to the twelfth lunar month, so that he did not have to rush, and the Ministry of Rites would take his time to go through the process. The Minister of Rites was confused. He grabbed Fengling and asked, "Why did the princess change her mind?"

He had not forgotten that he had been so sincere and did not ask the king to change the date. He did not listen to the concubine. The concubine and her husband were in a hurry to get married, and he was almost forced to sue.

Fengling said in a low voice: "Because the old Guo Gonggong of Daliang Protector's Mansion is old, he wants to come to Nanchu to watch the ceremony with the Grand Princess of Sheng'an, and they can't make it in time. In order for them to walk more slowly on the road, they postponed it."

The Minister of Rites immediately said: "Oh, thank you, the old protector of the country."

Fengling is happy.

The Minister of Rites felt relieved, "In this case, I will take leave and rest for three days. I am exhausted these days."

Fengling couldn't bear to tell him, "I'm afraid you can only rest for one day at most. The next day, Yan Jin and I will be transferred to the Ministry of Works to help."

“What?” The Minister of Rites suddenly raised his voice.

Fengling sighed, "As you know, we need to repair the dam. The Ministry of Works has a lot of work this year and is overwhelmed. The spring rain has come."

The Minister of Rites was speechless for a long time, and then sighed deeply, "Hey, I have a hard life. Let's go, let's go!"

There is no rush for the wedding between the concubine and the concubine. Aren't the people sent to help in the etiquette department have to be taken back elsewhere?

Cui Yanjin was also tired and thin. He was already growing older and felt tired. That night, he said to Cui Xingzhi: "Cousin, I regret coming to Nanchu. This is not a human being." What a good life.”

Cui Xingzhi looked at him. Although he was tired and thin, he had grown taller and his whole body was slim. He was no longer the strong-looking young man before.

He smiled and said: "It'll be fine if you endure this year. I heard that the princess has postponed the wedding date, so your etiquette department should not be so busy."

Cui Yanjin immediately said: "How can there be? Although my cousin has postponed the wedding date, Brother Feng and I have been transferred to the Ministry of Industry. We are still as busy as we should be. I have been studying until late every night recently, and I don't have enough sleep. I have never worked hard, and I can hardly get up even to practice martial arts in the morning."

It was difficult for him to grit his teeth and persevere. No matter how late he slept, he had to get up and practice for half an hour in the morning. Otherwise, he was afraid that he would waste his martial arts and fight against the Wei Dynasty in the next ten years and be killed by the Wei Dynasty.

Cui Xingzhi touched his head and said, "My cousin has written to my grandfather and my grandfather has not replied yet. According to my cousin, if we can persuade my grandfather, there will be more people in our family in the future. If the Cui family's children enter the Southern Chu Dynasty, there will be many people in the clan." With help, you and I will be more relaxed, and my cousin will be more relaxed too."

"Ah? That's it! Really?" Cui Yanjin's eyes lit up, "I just want someone to help me work now."

Cui Xingzhi flicked his forehead, "Even if someone comes, you will still have to do the work. It's just the Cui family of Nanchu. From now on, it won't just be you and me who will support the family. Relatively speaking, it will be easier." , but it's only relative.”

The bond between them and their cousins in fighting for life and death and advancing and retreating together on the battlefield is unparalleled by others. As long as they don't act like monsters and work hard, their future prospects will not be comparable to those of later generations. They still need to support the Cui family, but they will no longer be fighting alone.

The Ye Prime Minister's Mansion in Nanchu is very powerful. Although the cousin is not afraid of the Ye Prime Minister's Mansion and is not on guard against the Ye Prime Minister's Mansion, as children of the Cui family, the relatives behind their cousin naturally cannot let their cousin die without huge help. This will also prevent future generations from having the Ye Xiang Mansion follow in the footsteps of the Nangong family and have no one to stop them.

Cui Yanjin seemed to understand. He was naturally not as talented as Cui Xingzhi, who had been trained by Mr. Cui since he was a child. He was raised free-range and was young. After listening to Cui Xingzhi's words, he clasped his hands together and prayed. "Uncle come quickly, brothers come quickly and suffer."

Cui Xingzhi: “…”
