Chapter 888 Kick the scumbag, peach blossoms bloom 27 (End)
The officials from the Ministry of Rites who had counted Su Yan's dowry had a deep understanding of Su Yan's status as the richest woman in Jiang State.
Not to mention the antique jades, silks, satins, gold and silver jewelry.
There were one million taels of gold alone, and five hundred thousand taels of silver.
The people from the Ministry of Rites were inexplicably excited when they were counting the gold and silver. They had probably never seen so much gold and silver in their lives.
After all the dowry was counted, people from both sides signed and finalized the book. Each side kept a copy, and another copy was sent to the palace along with the dowry.
The people who carried the dowry were all very nervous. With so many valuable items, if anything happened to them along the way, no one could be held responsible.
For this purpose, the palace specially sent the Royal Guards to escort the dowry into the palace.
The common people of Xiang were all stunned when they saw the imperial guards escorting the dowry into the palace.
The red makeup tied with red silk was either carried by people or pulled by horse-drawn carriages, stretching for ten miles. It was truly ten miles of red makeup, dazzling the onlookers.
In terms of dowry alone, Su Yan was definitely the first in the past hundred years, and was the most famous person at the time.
We spent several days discussing the dowry.
Su Changxin and Huo Wenyuan naturally wanted to stay for the wedding banquet. They did not stay in the post house, but in the most luxurious inn in Dongdu.
No matter where Huo Wenyuan went, he liked to compare his inn with others.
He will learn and draw on the good aspects of other companies.
But most of them did not satisfy him. He always felt that these inns were not as satisfactory and not as comfortable and complete as his own inn.
Huo Wenyuan's taste has been developed, and after a tour of Dongdu, he already had the idea of building an inn here.
When he meets Su Yan, he will discuss with her the plan of expanding the business to Hunan.
On the wedding day, Su Yan was called up early to dress up.
Wearing a heavy and gorgeous dress and a crown weighing several kilograms on her head, if she was not in good health, she probably wouldn't have been able to bear it. It was too tiring.
After the complicated and solemn ceremony, Su Yan stood beside Qin Yue and accepted the worship of all the people with him.
Listening to the people below shouting "Long live the emperor" and "A thousand years live the queen", Su Yan was actually in a trance.
It seemed that she had not yet become a queen. Looking at Qin Yue beside her, he was also looking at her.
The two smiled at each other and held each other's hands tightly.
Su Changxin and Huo Wenyuan in the crowd were also moved, excited, reluctant and nostalgic. Their emotions were surging and their eyes were wet.
The wedding procession stood at the very end, and the emperor and empress were almost invisible above them. Lu Dingjiang and Xue Caiyue, who were standing in the procession, also had complicated feelings.
Everything in the previous life is just a passing cloud. In this life, Su Yan will be the most noble woman and live a happy life that he can't imagine.
Marrying him would only lead to a mediocre and miserable life, but being away from him, she was truly reborn from the ashes, more dazzling than anyone else.
Xue Caiyue on the side could not help but sneer and said, "Look, she had a happy life before she married you. But after I married you, I was tortured by my mother-in-law every day and couldn't even take care of my own children. Why is my life so miserable?"
Lu Dingjiang glanced at her and said coldly, "You got what you asked for, so you can't blame anyone. Let's live a good life from now on and stop messing around."
Xue Caiyue said indignantly: "How am I messing around? Who am I doing this for? It's for you. I don't want to be trapped in the inner house. If I stay at home, I'm afraid there will be more conflicts with my mother-in-law. For the sake of family harmony, I came out to be self-reliant, but in the end you blame me for messing around."
Lu Dingjiang didn't want to argue with her at this time. Whether she wanted to be self-reliant or wanted to compete with Su Yan, only she knew it.
It's ridiculous that she blames him for being indifferent because of her own lack of ability.
The sunny and bright colorful moon in the past seemed to be just an illusion. Once the mask was pierced, she no longer pretended to be hypocritical and sarcastic.
The two of them were arguing so loudly that no one else had time to pay attention to them. They were just excited to witness their princess marrying the Xiang Kingdom and becoming its queen.
This was a grand event that they could brag about for months after they returned home.
The wedding procession left Dongdu the next day, while Huo Wenyuan and Su Changxin would stay in Dongdu for another half a month.
The two of them have no official business and are both free agents, so they can stay as long as they want.
After Su Yan's wedding, he summoned them to the Summer Palace the next day.
When the two saw that her face was rosy and her smile was as beautiful as a flower, they knew that she was living well in the palace.
They exchanged pleasantries first, and then when the banquet started, Huo Wenyuan brought up the idea of doing business in Xiang.
Of course Su Yan agreed 100%. She was still thinking about the fact that she had no help in Xiang State, and then Huo Wenyuan came to her doorstep, like someone handing her a pillow when she was sleepy.
Apart from her, there were no other concubines in Qin Yue's harem, so she didn't need to spend any time managing the harem.
The two of them had already had a deep discussion last night, and Qin Yue supported whatever she wanted to do.
The only thing is that she cannot go out in public as the queen and cannot bring discredit to the royal family.
Of course there is no problem for Su Yan. When she is out there, she gives herself an identity. She can be the Third Young Master Su or the Fourth Young Master Su.
Besides, she doesn't have to do everything herself. Xiang Li and Xiao Taohong have been trained by her over the years and are now able to take charge of their own affairs.
In addition, Huo Wenyuan also wants to develop in Xiang State now, which is naturally the best. The two of them cooperate well and often know each other's thoughts with just an eye contact. Even if she can't leave the palace often, Xiang Li and Xiao Taohong can convey it on her behalf, and the effect will be the same.
The meal lasted for two hours and both the guests and the hosts were very happy.
From then on, Su Yan was known as the Third Young Master Su in public. This name, like the Second Young Master Su, quickly became famous in Xiang State.
Young Master Su San's businesses spread all over Xiang State, and in less than ten years she became the richest woman in Xiang State.
During this period, natural disasters and man-made disasters occurred in Xiang State. The Queen donated money and materials, and each time she was generous and set a good example.
The common people of Xiang State all wondered how much dowry the queen brought when she got married, which allowed her to be so generous and take the lead in donating millions of silver every time.
You have to know that the money donated by the Queen was her dowry, not the annual offering from the royal family.
There was a very rich queen, and the emperor in the previous dynasty also spoke with authority. When other neighboring countries wanted to offend the border of Hunan by force, they were suppressed by force as soon as they showed any signs.
The emperor has no shortage of money and is not afraid of war.
With the Queen's support, he has the confidence to speak.
The previous dynasty wanted to use money, but it was impossible to control the emperor.
Of course, the emperor only loved the queen, and for so many years, there was only the queen in the harem.
During the ten years, the empress gave birth to a daughter and a son for the emperor. Although the family was not large, having a son and a daughter was enough. The emperor did not ask the empress to give birth to more children, nor did he have the idea of taking a concubine.
The ministers did not dare to use this to encourage the emperor to take a concubine. You have to know that in their lives, almost every industry, including food, clothing, housing and transportation, has been infiltrated by Su Ji. If they dared to encourage the emperor to take a concubine, their own family's industry would probably be threatened with destruction the next day.
The fact that Xiang State had such a capable queen made other small countries around it envious.
Especially the Jiang State, seeing the Xiang State growing stronger and stronger, they regretted it so much.
At the beginning, half of them thought that Su Yan should not be married to him, as it was tantamount to giving a cash cow to him.
Now, under the leadership of Su Yan, Xiang's economy is developing rapidly, the country is prosperous, the people are happy, and the military is advanced. Who would dare to provoke Xiang? No matter what they fight, they will not be able to win.
In this life, Su Yan and Qin Yue's names were recorded in history together, becoming a famous loving couple in history, and the only monogamous emperor and empress.
The period of time when the two men jointly governed is also known as the Early Yuan Prosperity.
