Chapter 1411: Same Style Shock

losed, and Ding Hua didn't know what was going on inside. He was also very nervous at this moment.Mo Yunjing spoke up, "Go find a doctor, quickly!""No, no, no." An Xuetang quickly said, "As for that D..."Today, my lord and the princess are to be wed. Lady Shou'er, you heard correctly, as did I."

"!!!"

Shou'er instantly failed her facial expression management, so she really didn't mishear.

But how could that be

An hour ago, she went to the Anle Hou Mansion and also to the Ye Mansion!

She didn't show any sign that she knew today was a happy occasion.

Besides, even though she had never been married, she knew that getting married took a long time, with six rituals alone: nǎcài (seeking permission), wèn míng (asking the name), nà jì (receiving the date), nà zhēng (requesting betrothal), qǐng qī (setting the date), and qīn yíng (the bridal procession).

Even if simplified, it couldn't possibly be today for the wedding, could it

After coming to her senses, Shou'er stared at Daliang, "Are you serious"

Daliang saw her completely disbelieving expression and couldn't help but chuckle. He took out a marriage certificate, "I'm not joking, this is a marriage certificate written by our elders. I'm going to the yamen right now to register it."

"..." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shour blinked, as if she suddenly understood something.

And indeed Daliang was in a hurry. Originally, their elders were going to have the steward handle this matter, but after those officials in the capital learned about the Ye family's visit to Anle Houfu to seek marriage, they all sent gifts to the Ye family to congratulate them.

To put it simply, they finally got a chance to curry favor with the adults, and they weren't going to miss it.

Now that the adults are injured, they cannot personally deal with those people. They can only ask the steward to handle it, anyway, the steward is rather good at such things.

The steward handled all matters within the estate, so it was natural for him to take care of going to the yamen. After all, his younger brother wasn't very reliable, and the master was worried something might go wrong.

So, he was told to go quickly and return promptly.

He didn't have much time to explain to Shou'er right now, so he just said, "By this hour, the news of our master and the county lord's marriage today should have spread. If Miss Shou'er wants to know the specifics, she might as well go to the street and inquire about it. I'll go to the yamen first to handle things for us."

"Good."

Knowing he was in a hurry, Shou'er, though genuinely curious, didn't insist on him wasting time explaining to her right now.

After Daliang left, Shou'er didn't rush back to the Bei Jiang Wangfu. Instead, she listened to Daliang's advice and went to the street to ask someone.

The people of Ye Mansion have already conveyed everything they wanted to say.

This matter after all is still a big deal for two big families, many people can't help but gossip, some words spread ten, ten spread a hundred, in a short time, it spread throughout the capital city.

Shou'er didn't have much trouble finding out everything that happened, so she hurried back to the Beijang Wangfu.

Before even entering Jingtang Garden, she excitedly shouted, "Your Highness, Your Highness, something big has happened!"

In the room, An Xuetang, Ning'er, and Kang'er: "..."

To be honest, all three of them were stunned for a moment.

On a normal day, Shou'er wouldn't display such obvious emotions.

Fortunately, everyone could tell from her tone that she wasn't nervous, so they all knew whatever she was about to say couldn't be bad news.

I just don't know what big deal it is.

As soon as Shou'er ran in, everyone immediately saw the smile she couldn't hide on her face. Catching her breath, she spoke, "Your Highness, they got married...they got married."

“......”

Everyone was baffled and looked at Shour with confusion.

Who got married

Ning'er saw Shou'er enter and didn't even have time to greet the princess. She had wanted to signal her with her eyes, but who knew that Shou'er was so excited at the moment that she didn't have time to look at her at all.

Where else could one notice her gaze.

An Xuetang had never cared about these things, and she didn't want them to truly see her as a maidservant. At this moment, she didn't care about Shou'er's behavior at all. She simply smiled helplessly and said, "Tell me slowly, who got married"

It is Lord Ye and the Lady who are getting married today.

"!!!"

Shou'er's words were like a bomb thrown into a calm lake, instantly leaving An Xuetang and the others speechless.

Upon hearing such news, they couldn't remain calm.

Shou'er looked at everyone's expressions, they were indeed the same as hers when she had first heard it.

She couldn't help but chuckle softly, "Your Highness, this isn't a rumor. Lord Ye has already sent his guards to the yamen to register the marriage certificate."

The marriage certificate is on record, something An Xuetang was well aware of. Just like modern marriages, the marriage certificate here is equivalent to a marriage license in modern times.

Here, even a wife who is officially married must have a marriage certificate, and then take it to the government office to be recorded.

But often, this step is only completed after the wedding ceremony has been held at both families' homes, and then the groom's family will take it to the government office for registration.

Could it be that Ye Er had someone take the marriage certificate to the government office today

Why is this so

An Xuetang looked at Shou'er, "Have you found out any concrete news"

"Your Highness, it was intentional information spread by people from the Ye Residence. They said that Master Ye is unwell, but there are no other women in the residence who can take care of him."

And Master Ye himself was reluctant to allow women near him. Knowing that Master Ye needed someone to take care of him, the Marquis of Anle proposed that the county princess, who would be his future wife, go to the Ye Mansion to look after him.

“But the fact that the County Princess and Lord Ye were not yet married. Lord Ye was afraid that the County Princess would be gossiped about, but he did need someone to take care of him. So he discussed it with the Marquis and decided to write a marriage certificate first and register it at the government office. This would directly confirm that the County Princess was the mistress of the Ye residence. In this way, the County Princess’s move into the Ye residence would be reasonable, and no one could gossip about her.”

"Lord Ye also promised that once he recovers, he will still go through all the necessary procedures and marry the County Princess in a grand procession with eight sedan chairs. He will not miss any of the ceremonies due to her."

"Lord Ye's proposal was also agreed upon by the Marquis and Marchioness."

After hearing Shou'er's words, An Xuetang actually understood. All that Ye Er had done was for Xiao Qin's reputation.

The fact that Xiaoqin moved into the Ye Residence before they were married couldn't be kept secret for long. Once it got out, she would be gossiped about and ridiculed by the women of the capital who had nothing better to do than spread rumors.

Ye Er considered this point and first legalized the relationship between the two at the legal level.

To put it simply, this is how most people get married today: they get the marriage license first, and then have the wedding ceremony.

Legally, the two are already married. Xiaoqin is now the sole mistress of the Ye household as per law. She resides in the Ye household, who dares to utter a word against it

Such a way of handling things by Ye Er was almost unprecedented in this era. Many people probably wouldn't agree with it, but for the sake of protecting Xiaoqin, he truly dared to do and think anything.

I have to admit, he is really good to Xiaoqin.

Having figured out Ye Er's nature, An Xue Tang chuckled softly, "Xiao Qin finally chose the right person. This Mr. Ye is much better than Jiang Qing Yang."

Ning'er and the others all nodded in agreement.

This Ye Er is indeed much better than Jiang Qingyang, the county princess marrying him won't be a loss.

A few remained silent for a moment. An Xuetang suddenly raised an eyebrow, "Regarding this matter, Xiao Qin should still be unaware, but since Ye Er has already spread the word, he probably didn't intend to hide it from her. It's just unknown whether she will be able to accept it."ughed a few times before slowly saying to the Emperor, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty's kindness, I have received it with all my heart and am deeply grateful.""You needn't be so formal with me...
