Chapter 255 (1/2)
Although Xiao Yanjun didn't know the meaning of Du Hanfei's words, he smiled and said, ”since Prime Minister Du is so sure, I will wait for good news.”
Du Hanfei looked at him and smiled. They walked out of the hall of supreme harmony together.
”Listen to the mother imperial concubine mention that she promised Jiaying's sister to Prime Minister Du's eldest son?” Xiao Yanjun asked with a smile.
”Yes, I'm loved by imperial concubine Li. The old minister is going to take kun'er to Shi's house.” Du Hanfei stroked his beard and smiled back.
”Then congratulations to Prime Minister Du first. I don't know if the wedding date can be discussed?” Xiao Yanjun bowed.
Du Hanfei nodded: ”yesterday Li and Mrs. Shi just set a date for July 6, and just can wait for general Shi to escort the Mongolian Princess back to Beijing.”
”Prime minister Du is considerate, and the king will not stop Prime Minister Du. Don't miss the auspicious time of hiring.” Xiao Yanjun first praised and then joked.
Du Hanfei laughed and bowed at the speech, and the two parted ways at his highness Taihe.
After he returned to the house, he called the housekeeper Tu Shaozhi to ask if Yiying's items were ready. Tu Shaozhi nodded and ordered the boy to lift all the things up while presenting the gift list to him for reading.
Engagement cake, engagement gold, incense gun bracelet gold, gold and silver jewelry, Jinluo silk and satin are essential.
The rest is nothing more than the combination of raw melons and fruits with good meaning.
Du Kun heard that Du Hanfei also came to the hall when he returned to the house. When Du Hanfei saw him coming, it was economical to ask someone to call him again. He led him and an attendant to Shi's house carrying the bride price and beating gongs and drums.
When Mrs. Shi got the news, she naturally welcomed her outside the house. The two sides exchanged greetings and exchanged the Geng tie of Du Kun and Shi Jiaying. This engagement was even concluded.
Mrs. Shi warmly left Du Hanfei for dinner. Now she is in laws, and Du Hanfei is not refusing.
In recent days, there have been many good things. He was happy and inevitably drank two more cups. When Du Kun helped him back to Du's house, the sky was already dark.
After the morning routine retired the next day, all the ministers surrounded Du Hanfei in the center to congratulate him.
He joked that such a big happy event was still hidden. They didn't know it until Lidu's house went to Shi's house to propose marriage yesterday, and the people all over the city talked about it one after another.
Du Hanfei grinned as he said 'where, where', and the corners of his mouth grinned to the root of his ears.
The ministers were not willing to let him go. They had to make him eat a wedding banquet first. Du Hanfei was happy but didn't refuse. He came down and led all the ministers straight to yinweizhai.
Naturally, Xiao Yanjun also gave Du Hanfei face and went together. Today, yinweizhai is very lively.
But the common people haven't seen such a large group of important officials gather together for a long time. Finally, they actually saw the king's Luan sedan chair.
The people stopped and talked about it, and surrounded the door of yinweizhai.
In addition to the lively drinking room, today's Mingxiang garden is also full of joy. The children of aristocratic families in Beijing are almost all here and gather around Du Kun to bow and celebrate.
The only one who didn't follow the tide was probably Xu Wenlan, the son of the Minister of household.
When he arrived, he just sat in the meditation room of mingxiangyuan and learned to meditate with Bingwen. It was only because Du Hanfei's family was happy that he was unhappy that he meditated and meditated.
