Chapter 555 Another decree


    The emperor thought about it again. There are only seven or eight days left before the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month. This decree needs to be sent to Ping''an City quickly, otherwise he may not be able to catch up with the wedding of the prince on the 19th lunar month.


    It’s just that for non-military matters, eight hundred miles cannot be expedited.


    ??The emperor warned, "Draw up the decree and have it sent to Ping''an City quickly."


    Eunuch Xu bent over and listened, then said, "Yes." Then he left.


    After listening to the emperor''s oral instructions, Empress Zheng felt less angry and asked someone to draft an edict and give it to the eunuch.


    Xiao Yu got the news within two days. Another Yizhi came to Ping''an City, but the content of the Yizhi was not found out.


    The wedding is coming soon, and Xiao Yu will never allow anything to happen again at this time.


    ?No matter what the content of the decree is, in short, it has to wait until he gets married.


    Therefore, Eunuch Zhao, who was delivering the imperial edict, had only been out of the capital for three days, and for some reason, he suffered from a bad stomach.


    The whole person was exhausted, so he asked the medical officer to see him. He rested for a day in Guanyi and took medicine for a day. He got up early the next day and felt better, and then he continued to set off.


    Eunuch Zhao was still weak on the road and did not dare to delay things. He got a carriage and ordered him to drive day and night.


    On the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, the weather was rarely very sunny.


    A Sanjin courtyard in Ping''an City was bustling with activity early in the morning.


    After discussing with Gu Fei, Mrs. Chen decided to hold the wedding event at this house in the city.


    The courtyard in the countryside only has two entrances, which are a bit small and cannot be maneuvered around.


    ??Anyway, everything in this house is ready-made.


    I cleaned it up a few days ago and bought some fine porcelain tea sets and utensils. Now everything is neat and tidy.


    ?Gu Fei slept until dawn.


    Mrs. Chen didn''t send anyone to wake her up. She thought that her daughter would become someone else''s family. Although she didn''t have to get up early to work in the future, she heard from Lanzhi that this big family must be careful in the morning and dusk. Get up and go greet your parents-in-law.


    She just wanted to let Xiao Fei be at ease day by day.


    The procession of getting married will not arrive until the afternoon, and the wedding ceremony will be held in the afternoon, and the ceremony will not be completed until dusk.


    ?Gu Fei got up and washed up, and Lian''er brought breakfast in.


    After breakfast, Lian''er, Yan''er and the other girls asked their mother-in-law to fetch water for Gu Fei to take a bath.


    ?This bath was more elegant than ever before. Three basins of water were changed, and a full half bottle of Persian essential oil was put into the last basin of water.


    After bathing, the smoker was put up in the room, and Gu Fei sat next to him to dry his half-twisted hair.


    After drying my hair, it’s time for lunch.


    Just after lunch, Sister Dan came over with the lady who combed her hair.


    It was Mrs. Chen who specially asked her to hire the most skilled hair-combing lady in Ping''an City.


    Sister Dan, Young Master Zhu’s wife, and Que’er all came over to add makeup to Gu Fei.


    ??Now Sister Dan is wearing a purple jade hairpin on her head that Gu Fei gave her.


    As soon as Sister Dan came in with the lady combing her hair, some ladies and wives from outside followed in to watch the fun.


    ?There are no other guests in the Gu family, just fellow villagers who have escaped from famine together, and then there are the young master Zhu’s family, Mr. Zhou’s family, and Old Man Huang’s family.


    The men were all accompanied by the three brothers of the Gu family in the outer courtyard. When they entered the courtyard, Chen and Lanzhi entertained the female relatives. Li Chunhua was about to give birth and did not dare to let her out.


    Those who entered the house were girls and wives from several families who had fled together.


    At this time, he looked at the lady combing her hair, opened the dressing box, and picked up an ivory comb.
