Chapter two hundred and forty-six marriage proposal

After seeing the white-haired man walking into the hall, Prince Yi's housekeeper began to get nervous. After wiping a cold sweat, he smiled and said to Wu Mian: "I just went to Shao Mansion to propose marriage, and Mr. Jia asked me to come here. He said that Mr. Wu Mian was the main thing in the Shao family..."

"Jia Shifang knows at least..." Wu Mian took the copybook from the butler when he was speaking. He said directly without looking at it. "Go back, Yunxiang's horoscope is not in harmony with Shao Suru. The Shao family's daughter defeats your prince. If you don't want to die early, please tell him not to think about it."

The fat butler smiled awkwardly. He knew something about Wu Mian, Gui Bugui and others from Yunxiang. These monks even spoke with a smile on their faces. He was just a butler of the royal palace. How could he dare to offend such a big man? However, he could not ignore the lifelong affairs of his prince, otherwise he would not be able to explain it if he went back like this.

After hesitating for a moment, the fat butler said with a smile again: "These monks are all great figures in the sky. It is a big deal for ordinary people to have different horoscopes. But in the eyes of you, horoscopes are just the time of birth. There must be a way to resolve them..."

When he said this, the fat housekeeper paused. Seeing that the white-haired man had no intention of blaming him, he continued: "My prince is determined to marry Miss Shao. For this, the Thirteenth Master also specially invited a special order to make an exception for intermarriage between Manchu and Han..."

"Don't you understand what I said?" Seeing that the butler was talking nonstop, Wu Mian frowned. After pausing for a moment, he continued, "If you continue, your horoscope will be arguing with me. Don't say that I will defeat your master..."

After wiped the cold sweat, the fat butler hurriedly said goodbye to everyone. After leaving the silver quotation with fear, he got on the carriage and returned to Prince Yi's mansion. After seeing his prince, the butler did not dare to add fuel to the fire. He immediately told Prince Yi Yunxiang about the matter inside the silver quotation.

Yunxiang was not angry, but laughed and said to the butler: "What about Jia Shifang? What is his attitude? Isn't he the same as Wu Mian?"

When Jia Shifang was mentioned, "Prince, just count this Jia Shifang as cunning. He accepted all the gifts, but he didn't let go. He just asked me to go to Sishui to find Wu Mian and said that he would be the one who is responsible for the Shao family. The slave saw that he was greedy and wanted gifts again..."

"Do you think the Shao family will be greedy for that little gift?" Yunxiang smiled and shook his head, and continued: "The Sishui family is the bank treasury of the Shao family. Hundreds of years ago, no one in the Shao family worked for money. However, they lived a wealthy life in Nanjing, and this was all supplied by the Sishui family. If you weren't afraid of being too arrogant, Guigui would make the Shao family the richest man in Nanjing."

When he said this, Yun Xiang paused. After a look at the fat housekeeper, he said again: "Jia Shifang did not return the gift, that is, he was thinking about speculating on this king. He prepared sedan chairs. I personally went to the mansion to chat with him. He prepared three excellent rouge powder and jewelry for women. I heard that the Shao family was the real decision-making woman..."

Half an hour later, Prince Yi's sedan chair was parked at the gate of the Shao family. The housekeeper had already come to vent his anger. What if the most popular person around the emperor of the dynasty, Prince Yi Yunxiang, had visited the mansion? At that moment, Jia Shifang and his son-in-law were waiting at the gate. When they saw the sedan chair, they hurriedly greeted him.

"The prince visited the humble house, which really made the walls of the humble house shine..." After seeing Yunxiang get out of the sedan chair, Jia Shifang smiled and said politely, and then continued: "Shifang is outside the world and is not suitable for the etiquette of the world. Wenxuan, you give a great gift to Prince Yi for your father-in-law..."

Jia Shifang's son-in-law Jiang Wenxuan was about to kneel on the ground and kowtow to Yunxiang, but was quickly helped by Prince Yi with his own hands. He said with a smile on his face: "Where is Prince Yi coming today? The manchu scholar Aisin Gioro. Yunxiang. Yunxiang came to visit you..."

At that moment, Yunxiang, accompanied by Jia Shifang and his son-in-law, entered the Shao family's residence. After entering the central hall, he ordered people to send gifts to the Shao family's women and said, "These are all objects that were tributed to the concubines in the palace. Yunxiang picked a few of them casually, and didn't know whether the old woman and the lady were suitable for use."

"Your Highness, you are so kind. I have asked you for your blessing. We are a small family like us, and you can also use the things in the palace." Jia Shifang asked his housekeeper to collect the gifts and send them to the backyard to the women, and continued to say to Yunxiang: "Prince, you are not here to send these gouache and jewelry this time, right?"

"You are still old sir, you have a unique vision..." Yunxiang paused for a moment and continued, "To be honest, Yunxiang came here this time to propose marriage to your Miss Suru. Originally, according to etiquette, such a big thing should be the order of his parents. However, Yunxiang's affairs are special. Ama has passed away and his mother cannot get out of the palace. She can only do her own things."

Speaking of this, Yunxiang smiled, and then continued, "Yunxiang also thought about it, please ask the old master in the court to be a matchmaker to talk about marriage. But after thinking about it, the old master came to the house with no sincerity as Yunxiang had sincerity, so he came over with shamelessness."

When Yunxiang said this, he took out his horoscope again. He handed it to Jia Shifang with both hands and said, "As long as you nod, Yunxiang will enter the palace now and ask the emperor to issue an order to marry. Choose a zodiac day to welcome Miss Suru to pass by. Then she will be the concubine of my Prince Yi's mansion."

After hearing Yunxiang's words, Jia Shifang laughed a few times and said after hinting that Yunxiang had no problems here, she sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you don't know. Seeing that Jia seems to be the head of the Shao family, I am just a son-in-law who married into a marriage. Wenxuan is the same as me... My wife is the one who takes charge of the family's small matters. It seems that for a big event like marriage and funerals, I still have to listen to the great monk Wu Mian. If he can't pass that hurdle, I don't dare to make a promise..."

When he said this, several maids came over to serve tea. Jiang Wenxuan, who was originally smiling, suddenly became embarrassed when he saw one of the maids. While Yun Xiang was not paying attention, he glared at the little maid fiercely and signaled her to retreat quickly.

This little maid is his daughter Shao Suru. He heard that the famous iron-hat king in the capital came to the mansion to propose marriage to him. At this moment, the little girl was playing tricks, dressed up as a maid, and came to peek at what Prince Yi looked like. If she was an old man or a martial artist with a fat face, she would not agree to the marriage.

Seeing that his father discovered that Shao Suru put down the tea bowl, made a face at his father and grandfather, and then returned to the back house again.

Yunxiang saw the reaction of Jia Shifang and his son-in-law, and looked at the appearance of this handsome little maid, he immediately guessed eight or nine points. Just when he pretended not to know and planned to continue to find a way to bypass Wu Mian and directly propose marriage to the Shao family, the butler of the Shao family walked to Jia Shifang and whispered in his ear: "Master, I saved my wife yesterday, and the missed strange men came outside the door again. Now the reliance with the royal palace has started. You go out and pull me. I see that this is going to kill someone..."

When Jia Shifang and Yunxiang were also shocked when they heard Wu Mian and Gui Bugui and the others arrived. At that moment, they hurried to the door to greet him. After leaving the door, they saw that there was already a mess here...

The big man who looked like a black iron tower was cursing at the streets: "You little wives raised beasts! Do you think I have never seen any ragged prince? The emperor has seen a bunch of slaves who are looking down on others. Today I am in a mood, and you are lucky... Come here and let me strangle you to death one by one..."
