Chapter 211 Don’t You Regret It?
In the carriage, Xun Haoxuan was very happy to see Su Yueyao, with a slight smile on his face.
"Does Miss Su like boating?"
"It's okay! I've never participated in such an event. Is there anything I need to do?"
"In fact, this kind of activity is for the women of Fengdu to secretly select suitable men, or for the engaged women and men to appear together and tell everyone which family is getting married to which family."
"The Xun family has never held such a large banquet before. Since I am going to marry you, I would like to introduce you to everyone, including the aristocratic families that the Xun family is familiar with."
"Do you have a good relationship with the Xun family? Aren't your father and mother in Yangfu City now?" Su Yueyao asked curiously.
"Yes! My father left Fengdu and went to Yangfu City because of some problems. He will come back to Fengdu this year to take up a post. My father and mother also have a residence in Fengdu."
"Although my uncle is now in charge of the Xun Mansion, my grandfather also has a say. I have passed the evaluation of the Literary Museum this year, and the Xun family will also give me some support."
"That's good. At least you have the ability to protect yourself." Su Yueyao said with a smile.
"Mrs. Su, have you set a date for your wedding with the eldest prince? When will you come to the Xun family to propose marriage?" Xun Haoxuan asked with a smile.
"The date for the eldest prince and I has been set. I will marry Deputy Commander Cui first, and then you. It may take some time!" Su Yueyao said uncertainly.
"I'm waiting for you, Miss Su, to marry me!"
"Mr. Xun, you don't actually need to be a concubine. Don't you regret it?" Su Yueyao asked Xun Haoxuan, who had a smile on his face.
"I don't regret it! When I first saw you in Yangfu City, I thought you were very special and made my heart beat fast. I had planned to come to Fengdu to participate in the competition, then slowly get closer to you and ask you to marry me. I didn't expect that you would encounter danger on the way, and I was able to save you."
"Well, since you want to marry me, I will treat you well in the future. We will be a family in the future."
"Thank you, Miss Su."
"There will be more people at the banquet today. I will protect Miss Su, and Miss Su should try not to leave my sight."
"I understand. I've fallen into water before, so I'm a little afraid of water. I don't like going near the water, so Mr. Xun, please don't take me there." Su Yueyao said directly.
"Are you injured when you fell into the water? Are there any sequelae? Do you need me to find a doctor for you?" Xun Haoxuan asked worriedly when he heard it.
"It's been a long time. I was rescued in time."
"That's good. If I had known that Miss Su didn't like the lakeside, I wouldn't have allowed her to come to the boat party today. It was my inconsiderateness." Xun Haoxuan said with some sadness.
"It's okay. Although I'm afraid of water, I also like beautiful scenery. My master said that the scenery where the boat is is very beautiful."
"I've been there once before. The scenery is indeed beautiful, but it's a bit far away, almost to the easternmost part of Fengdu."
"It's worth walking further to see the beautiful scenery." Su Yueyao said with a smile.
The two of them kept chatting, and both sides got to know each other, so they were no longer strangers.
When they arrived at the place, Su Yueyao got off and found that there were many shops on both sides selling goods and it was very prosperous. There was a ferry surrounded by railings in front, and there were yamen runners guarding on both sides.
"Ms. Su, let's go! The boat cruise we are here to attend today will all start from this ferry and take a boat to the small island over there." Xun Haoxuan said as he stood beside Su Yueyao.
"Great! It's so prosperous here! This is the first time I see so many vendors!" Su Yueyao looked left and right.
"This place was specially built by His Majesty. I heard that many shops on both sides are His Majesty's private property." Xun Haoxuan said.
Su Yueyao was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that His Majesty was also doing business to make money in private!
“Want to walk around both sides?”
"Let's go shopping again when we come back in the afternoon! It's getting late now, so we don't want to keep them waiting for too long."
"Okay, let's go take a boat!"
Xun Haoxuan escorted Su Yueyao towards the ferry. When Su Yueyao arrived at the river, she found that there were already many small boats on the lake. There was a boatman in front paddling the boat, which could seat two or three people.
Some boats are slightly larger and have small tables for drinking tea and the like, but there aren't many of them.
Xun Haoxuan handed over a sign, and the boatman immediately found a larger and more exquisite boat and asked the two to get on board.
"Sir, go up first, and then support the lady. The boat is a little shaking, so be careful." The boatman said with a smile while pulling the rope.
"Thank you." After expressing his gratitude, Xun Haoxuan got on the boat very lightly, then stretched out his hand to signal Su Yueyao to support him.
Su Yueyao looked at the river beside the boat and was afraid for a moment, but when she thought that Xun Haoxuan would not let anything happen to her, she held out her hand.
Xun Haoxuan exerted a little force, and Su Yueyao was directly on the boat in an instant, but she was leaning on Xun Haoxuan's chest, and Xun Haoxuan also put his arms around her waist.
The two of them let go in an instant, and the boatman said, "The lady and the young master can get on the boat now. The servants of the young master and the lady will take other boats later."
"Ok."
Then the boat moved towards the center little by little.
Su Yueyao looked up at the scenery outside, it was indeed beautiful.
"Master Xun, is it cool here in summer?" Su Yueyao asked when she thought of Yuan Jin's words about coming here to play in the water in summer.
"It's a bit hot to take a boat in the summer, and it rains a lot in the summer, so it's a bit risky to take a boat, but it's much cooler inside the island."
"I see."
It seems that if you want to come here in summer, you’d better know the weather in advance.
"There are houses specially provided for accommodation on the island, so many people come here to enjoy the cool air in the summer!" Xun Haoxuan said again.
"Your Majesty has good vision!" Su Yueyao said with emotion.
She had always thought that the empress was mainly concerned with state affairs, and that every day she was either reviewing memorials or on her way to review memorials, or she was favoring the men in her harem.
I didn’t expect that the Queen could make such good use of such a beautiful scenery. She has a good vision for investment.
The empress, who was far away in the palace, had not raised her head in the imperial study for an hour, reviewing memorials. At this moment, she sneezed violently.
"Your Majesty, do you want to add more clothes?" Fu'an asked immediately.
"No need, I'm afraid someone is talking about me behind my back again!"
