    "Master, stop now, you can't fight any more—" After hearing the news, Mrs. Xie who came over saw Yongchang Hou being beaten up by Duke An, and was frightened. He hurriedly took people to stop Duke An.

On the way she came, she had already heard the messenger tell about the purpose of Marquis Yongchang's visit, but she never expected that Yan Jingshu would actually get a marriage gift from the Holy Majesty. Although she felt that this was too embarrassing for Yan Jingshu, it also saved her a lot of trouble in the original arrangement, and directly made Yan Jingshu unable to stand up again. Naturally, she was happy to see this.

Of course, she also knew that An Guogong's mood was completely opposite to hers, so she was not surprised to see An Guogong's completely different irritable appearance from the past. It's just that she can't let An Guogong continue to beat him like this, otherwise, if he killed Yongchang Hou Shixiao, if it spreads to the emperor's ears and the emperor thinks that they are dissatisfied with the marriage decree, it will be a serious crime.

An Guogong still gave some face to Mrs. Xie, who made his wife, but Mrs. Xie stopped him and talked about his interests, but finally stopped. The Xie family hurriedly sent envoys to invite the doctor and resettle Yongchanghou.

Here Mrs. Xie was still thinking about how to appease Yongchang Hou and tell him not to make a fuss, but over there, An Guogong couldn't see Yongchang Hou's pig-headed face anymore, so he walked to the backyard. Originally, he should have told Yan Jingshu first, but now that things have turned out like this, he was really ashamed to see Yan Jingshu, so he went to tell Mrs. Yan first.

Mrs. Yan was silent for a long time when she heard the news, she thought, she was right, her grandson is a good fortune.

Regardless of whether Marquis Yongchang did this to make up for the fear of An Guogong's revenge, or for other reasons, for Yan Jingshu who had this plan in the first place, this could not be the best thing.

Rumors have been widely known in Beijing, if Yan Jingshu and Jiang Chenghan get married in the end, it will definitely damage the reputation of the two, but now with this marriage decree, it is a mighty gift from the emperor Good fate, no matter what people outside think in their hearts, they dare not say a bad word on their lips, otherwise it will be a crime of rebellion.

An Guogong was still worried about how to tell Yan Jingshu, and even more so when he thought about Yan Jingshu's marriage in the future, or marrying Jiang Chenghan, who had no family background, his heart felt depressed for a while.

Hearing Mr. An's dislike for Jiang Chenghan in his words, Mrs. Yan persuaded: "Don't ask where the hero comes from. Although Jiang Chenghan has no family background, he is capable. Otherwise, why is he so young, only in his twenties? I got

Kou Shijun's favor at the age of 10, and I took him by my side to cultivate and rely heavily on him. Besides, no matter whether a man's family background is good or his ability is good, the most important thing is to have a good character. Looking at it, it can be seen that Jiang Chenghan is a tough and decisive person, careful and considerate, and a loyal and upright person. Compared with Zhao Xian, the son of Marquis Yongchang, although he comes from a noble family, he is a coquettish and despicable character. I don't know. How many times stronger is it worth entrusting for life.

I know you are not fair, but the matter has come to this point, so you should think about the good, otherwise how will Shuer deal with himself? In the future, he will spend the rest of his life with Jiang Chenghan. If you have a grudge against Jiang Chenghan, it is Shu'er who is in trouble."

"Son knows, son is just..." An Guogong shook his head with a wry smile, he is not a person who can't listen to his words, but the incident happened too suddenly. It was hard for him to accept it for a while.

It's not that he doesn't like Jiang Chenghan, even before today he admired and even appreciated Jiang Chenghan, but even so, he was not to the point where he could happily accept Jiang Chenghan as his son-in-law.

"Okay, the person who announced the decree will come at some time. You go back and pack up and prepare. As for Shu'er, I will go and talk to him." Mrs. Yan saw that An Guogong still resisted this matter, and then Fearing that if An Guogong went to tell Yan Jingshu, Yan Jingshu would show something strange again, so he decided that it would be safer to say it himself.

It is true that An Guogong does not dare to see Yan Jingshu now. Although he is deeply ashamed when he hears the words, he feels as if he has been pardoned. After thanking Mrs. Yan, he got up and went back to Canglan Courtyard.

Madam Yan didn't ask anyone to call Yan Jingshu, she left Rong'an Yuan by herself and went to Mingxuan where Yan Jingshu lived.

"Grandmother, why are you here in person? If you have something to do, just send someone to tell me to come over." Mrs. Yan entered the gate of Mingxuan, and Yan Jingshu hurriedly walked out of the house after receiving the report from the servant.

Mrs. Yan was supported by Yan Jingshu to walk into the house, and she said, "I'm not old enough to walk two steps.

" The old lady asked all the servants to retreat, and Mother An also asked to guard the door, and then asked Yan Jingshu, "You know about the arrival of Marquis Yongchang, right?"

Yan Jingshu nodded and said, "Yes, I don't know what he said to his father, which provoked his father to fight so violently."

"Your father is not going to be angry, but the Marquis of Yongchang didn't know what he was thinking. A marriage decree for you and that boy from the Jiang family..." Mrs. Yan said slowly while holding a teacup.

Before she could finish speaking, Yan Jingshu was stunned for a moment when he heard the word bestow marriage. The next moment, he stood up abruptly, with an uncontrollable joy on his face, "Grandmother, bestow marriage... this is Really?"

Mrs. Yan knew that Yan Jingshu must be very happy when she heard the news, so she was not surprised. She put down her teacup, and seeing Yan Jingshu was so happy, she couldn't help but smile softly and said: "Of course it's true, otherwise why would I need to make this trip."

"It's actually true?! But how, how could it be..." Yan Jingshu was so surprised that she didn't know what to do, and she even felt a sense of disbelief .

Originally, he thought that a smooth marriage with Jiang Chenghan would be enough, but he didn't expect to get a marriage bestowed by the Holy One. Now, not only can the marriage be settled completely, but also there is no need to worry about rumors. What was originally a shameful event turned into a great happy event, which Yan Jingshu never dared to imagine.

"Old Madam, Second Young Master, the Grand Duke sent someone to deliver the message that the person who announced the decree has arrived, please Second Young Master go over and receive the decree." Nanny An's voice came in through the door.

Mrs. Yan then said to Yan Jingshu: "You go, don't be nervous, just go as usual." Since the decree was given to Yan Jingshu, there is no need for Mrs. Yan to come forward, just Yan Jingshu to pick it up.

However , Yan Jingshu understood the meaning of Mrs. Yan's words, and said: "I understand, grandma."

Although the marriage is now a certainty, if he looks overjoyed, then An Guogong and his wife will inevitably have doubts in their hearts. It was too much trouble, so he forced himself to suppress the joy he was full of, restrained all his emotions, and then walked out of the yard with a blank expression, and walked towards the main hall.

An Guogong and Mrs. Xie were the first to know the decree of the marriage, so naturally they were ready to welcome them early. Half-worn casual clothes,

even her hair was tied casually, and Yan Jingshu, who had never tied a crown, appeared unusually uncoordinated.

Mrs. Xie was the most respectable, and couldn't help frowning after taking a look at it, and blamed him, "Why did you come out dressed like this?"

An Guogong, on the other hand, could not help feeling guilty with Shangyan Jingshu's calm eyes, And in his opinion, if Yan Jingshu really came to receive the order in a beautiful attire and was full of joy, it would be very abnormal. Now Yan Jingshu's appearance does not make him feel strange.

In front of the father-in-law delivering the decree, An Guogong didn't want to make a joke for outsiders to see, so he said: "Okay, Shu'er is also afraid of delaying the time, so it's not good to keep the father-in-law waiting for a long time.

" Okay, let me say something more, the incense table kneeling mat has been set up, and after the three of them knelt down one by one, they listened to the father-in-law and began to announce the decree:

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said: I have heard that Yan Jingshu, the second son of Yan Zhongkun, the Duke of Anguo, is gentle, modest, diligent, filial, courteous and restrained. With good moral character, they can be regarded as a good match, and I will give you a pair of jade pendants of Hehe Ruyi, and choose an auspicious day to get married—this

is my honor." After that, Xie En received the decree, and the decree was for Yan Jingshu, so naturally Yan Jingshu had to receive it personally, and another Seeing Yan Jingshu staring blankly at the imperial decree in his hand, An Guogong couldn't help but secretly sighed.

"Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch, let's have a rest with a cup of tea." Although he was just a servant delivering orders, he was still a member of the palace.

"Your Majesty Yan, you are polite." The little eunuch expressed a little flattered feeling appropriately, and said again: "The young one still has to go to the General's Mansion to deliver the decree, there is no need to delay any longer, so I will take my leave first." The marriage was given to the two families Yes, this one is over, there is another one over there.

"So that's the case, so I won't delay the official business." An Guogong didn't say anything more, but he also sent the housekeeper Yan Zhong to personally send out the edict.

On the side of An Guogong's mansion, no matter whether everyone is resisting or happy in their hearts, but because they knew the news of the marriage in advance, they accepted it calmly as usual, while the mansion of the Great General is completely different.

When Jiang Chenghan was notified to receive the decree in the guest house, his face was inexplicable. When he heard the words in the imperial decree, "can be a good match" and "choose an auspicious day and a good time to get married", he was completely dumbfounded, so dazed that Kou Shijun repeatedly shouted After calling him three times, he finally called him back to God.

But even so, when he took the imperial decree in his hand, his whole body seemed to be out of his body. Looking at the imperial decree in his hand, he was stunned for a while without any reaction.

Kou Shijun, who also didn't expect such a thing, didn't know what to say. In the end, it was Kou Shijun's wife, Mrs. Jiang, the general's wife, who sent away the father-in-law who delivered the decree. When he came back, he saw the two standing like wooden piles, so he had to say: "Sit in the room and talk about everything."

Only then did Jiang Chenghan and Kou Shijun come back to their senses, and entered the room one after the other.
