Chapter 440 Dowry
"Imperial Grandmother, may Xie Kuo really be able to shoulder the responsibility of the Da Yan family?" After a long while, the grandparents and grandchildren were polite, and Chunjia was busy with government affairs, so he asked straight to the point, "I haven't seen this child very often, but I feel that although he has a heavy heart Some, but not as smart as the imperial concubine?"
The Empress Dowager glanced at him lightly, and said: "For a lintel like the Xie family, it is enough to produce a noble concubine, which is enough to incur the disaster of extermination. Where does the qualification come from to produce a second one? It's just that this big lot Shi, as long as the body and bones are normal, he can give birth to the Wei He Emperor's heir with the blood of the Middle Earth, that's it. For the others, it's enough to match some dowry, isn't it?"
Chunjia couldn't help laughing and said, "If it's so casual, wouldn't anyone be fine?"
"That's how it was originally." The Empress Dowager said unhurriedly, "Aren't the princesses and relatives of the previous dynasty almost the same? The fiasco of the left and right Wei He will definitely not be able to get up for a while. In this case, the noble concubine If you are eager to promote your niece, let her go. If Xie Kuo doesn’t live up to his expectations, he will die in a year or so. It’s a big deal, just choose another one.”
He also said, "Your Majesty loves the noble concubine, and he is unwilling to reject Concubine Min by himself. I also think about the old bones of the Ai family. If the concubine's temperament is blocked by the Ai family's niece's future, she can let it go in the future. Aijia? Aijia is getting old, and every day is a day, but I don't plan to risk my life for His Majesty's face!"
"Grandmother thinks too much." Chun Jia said hastily, "Why would my grandson have such thoughts? Just looking at the whole country, there is no one who can judge whether a girl is qualified to be the mother of the world better than Grandmother. "
The Empress Dowager sneered and said: "The Ai family chose two queens for your Gongxiang family, but they are not here now, what kind of ability is this?"
Chunjia said softly: "That's not the fault of the emperor's grandmother, it can only be said that good luck tricked people."
"...Then Xie Kuo, seems to have a bit of heart, she is not an ordinary girl, the kind who just wants to grow old with one heart and one mind." The Empress Dowager frowned, and suddenly said, "It's just that the heart is the heart, and the ability is the ability." , In this world, there is never a lack of a master whose heart is higher than the sky and whose fate is thinner than paper. Of course, Xie Kuo is not very unlucky, otherwise he would not have been raised by the imperial concubine for these years. But Aijia sees that she is still immature. It's hard to say whether it can be tempered. However, as far as the current situation is concerned, it is not too bad a choice. After all, I am willing to marry in the past to seek wealth, and it is better than the master who is said to be going out of the fortress and killing her. stop?"
The Empress Dowager said again, "Besides, the Xie clan is now three or two big cats, and it is difficult to become a climate. Even if she sits firmly in the position of the Dayan clan in Weihe and gives birth to the future prince Weihe, it will be difficult for her to do anything in the court and the opposition. At most, the Xuanqing Palace will become more and more full-fledged in the future."
She squinted her eyes and looked at Chunjia, "What? After all, you are reluctant to part with the noble concubine, and plan to let go and stop blocking King Qin and the others?"
"The emperor's grandmother was joking, the princes are still young, and it's not time to discuss these." Chunjia smiled, and said slowly, "Since the empress dowager thinks Xie Kuo can give it a try, then I will give her a Opportunity... I have troubled the imperial grandmother this time, I remember that I brought some nourishing things a few days ago, and I will send them over later."
Two days later, the emperor announced at the court that he would adopt the suggestion of Yin Qu's faction, that Xie Kuo, the daughter of Xie's daughter, be conferred a letter as a princess, and marry Weihe far away as her country's Da Yan family, in order to turn hostility into jade.
At this time, Xie Kuo hadn’t actually performed filial piety yet, but it didn’t matter, after all, it was about the wedding of the monarch of a country, and the journey was far away, when the six ceremonies were about to be performed, the filial piety should also be released.
After the news spread, the ruling and opposition parties were in an uproar.
In Woxia Building, Gu Zhen's face was livid: "Prepare the chariot with me, I'm going to see Your Majesty!"
She wants to ask herself, if Chunjia promised at the beginning that she would establish a son-in-law and that Qingci Palace must be presided over by her Gu Zhen, does it still count? !
If it counts, what should I do to give Xie such honor and opportunity!
"Your Majesty, calm down!" Looking at her from left to right, she hurriedly persuaded her, how dare she really go to prepare the chariot?
After all, we all know that the empress is not liked by Chunjia, and now he gets angry and argues with the emperor, who knows what the consequences will be?
Gu Zhen is not Yunfenghuang, after having a fit with the emperor, the emperor has to turn his head to coax him.
Chun Jia would not have such patience with Gu Zhen.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. In the eyes of this maidservant, this is a sign that His Majesty intends to establish a heir!" At the critical moment, the servant was quick to gain wisdom, and advised the Queen to think about it from another angle, "Although Your Majesty is determined to make a heir as the crown prince, he has always Dote on the noble concubine. The temperament of the noble concubine is known to the front and rear palaces, and it is the most domineering and arrogant!"
The voice lowered, "Now that His Majesty is still here, no matter how ignorant the imperial concubine is, everyone can only bear it for His Majesty's sake. But if in the future... Your Majesty, please think, Your Majesty has always been diligent in government, how can he not waste his energy? And your majesty is almost ten years older than the imperial concubine... If your majesty...how can you not worry that the imperial concubine will be bullied? Therefore, the imperial concubine's niece will be made a princess and marry Wei He from afar. After Fan's defeat, I'm afraid I won't be able to go south for ten or twenty years. Even if Xie's daughter becomes Da Yan's, can she still influence the affairs of the country? It's just a backup, so we won't be free in the future Just deal with the imperial concubine!"
These words reminded the others, and they all advised the queen to calm down: "Your Majesty, if this is the case, then not only should we not make trouble now, but we must treat the imperial concubine and the many descendants of the imperial concubine with tolerance and kindness! Only in this way can we be called Your Majesty." Feel more at ease!"
Gu Zhen was dragged and persuaded by the crowd, and got angry, feeling that his words were not unreasonable.
The relationship between her and Yun Fenghuang has never been particularly good.
Chunjia is not stupid, how could he not have thought that when he was alive, he could uplift the imperial concubine as much as he wanted, after he left, it would be good if Gu Zhen didn't settle with Yun Fenghuang!
"This lowly servant girl doesn't know where the blessing came from, but she actually asked the dignified emperor to think about her like this." Gu Zhensi thought about it, and couldn't help sighing, "Your Majesty is still in his prime, yet he has thought about such a long time ago..."
"In the final analysis, she is nothing more than a concubine." The waiters all persuaded, "Your Majesty is the lord of the middle palace, so why should you be as knowledgeable as her? Your Majesty probably just can't bear to see her down in old age, and has no other intentions."
Such a turmoil dissipated quietly, but after all, it was only in the harem. In the previous dynasty, many people speculated whether the emperor's consideration of the position of the crown prince had changed?
Otherwise, why support Xie in this way?
Especially the many clan relatives, many daughters and granddaughters, all hoped to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune, but it turned out to be a little girl in a remote place with both parents dead and relying on her aunt's superior position!
One can imagine the feeling in my heart!
They wanted to protest to Chunjia, the problem is that when the master was struggling under the hands of the Ji family, his clan relatives did not help him, and now they are talking about this method of slaughtering his relatives at every turn. Look, I'm afraid it's not easy to get along with.
After much deliberation, she urged Princess Dongxing to come forward to test the emperor's attitude.
Chunjia dismissed the person lightly: "Didn't I say that? The Gongxiang family's blood is so precious, how can they marry a foreign race?"
These words made the clan members choke and didn't know what to say. Such words cannot be said to be wrong on the scene.
The point is, no matter how many precious bloodlines there are, that's all there is to it!
After all, they were not reconciled, but in the end they remembered that even the emperor would not easily reject someone.
And this time they also succeeded, forcibly stuffing two people into King Weihe's tent: the two granddaughters of King Zhou.
There is no way, who told the empress dowager to fight with the empress dowager, and the empress dowager killed Gong Xiangruo?
Although Chunjia has tried her best to make up for the two mothers, Princess Lin is such a biological son, and the emperor felt wronged. This time, the king of Zhou asked for the children of his two son-in-laws who were not so good to accompany Xincheng. The princess got married, Chunjia thought for a while, and agreed.
For this reason, he personally went to Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion to explain to Yun Fenghuang: "It's fine if only King Zhou speaks, but this time Princess Lin also said it. I wonder how pitiful Princess Lin is, so I agree."
"What did your majesty say, no matter how inferior Weihe Khan is to you, he is still the king of a country, and the three palaces and six courtyards are all righteous." Yun Fenghuang annoyed him kindly, "How can Kuoer understand this truth? Don't understand? With her status, being able to occupy the position of the Da Yan family is all flattered by His Majesty. Besides, as the Da Yan family, who is not her child?"
Turned around and asked Xie Kuo, "I have already sent someone to inquire about the temperament of the two girls. If they are easy to get along with, you can figure it out; if they are not good to get along with each other, there is no need to send them away as soon as they come up." What's the matter. Send her to serve Khan a few times to see if she can get pregnant. If you can give birth to a son and a half for you, and then send someone on the road, it will not be easy to leave traces, and it will also appear that you are broad-minded and have a positive palace Demeanor."
"Remember, on the Guochao side, except for you, the Dayan family, they don't really care much about the Khan's concubines. At least they don't care too much at first. But they must be very concerned about their heirs. Especially male heirs!"
"After all, male heirs can inherit the position of Khan!"
"So whether it's your own birth or someone else's, the boy in front of you must go!"
"If you are not sure, then let other people live better. The adopted son may not be as caring as the real son, but as long as it is also the blood of Guochao, it will definitely be rejected by Wei He. At that time, you, the aunt, will have to support you! "
"So anyone who is a little bit ambitious will pretend to be a filial son and grandson for you!"
"You have made it clear to me that hard work may not be able to bring you sincere filial piety, but driven by interests, you will definitely be obedient to you!"
This is just a small episode, even Xie Kuo, who has not been taught by the imperial concubine, also watched her father, brother, three wives and four concubines come over since she was a child. When she was young, she often mediated with her parents to prevent them from quarreling over the birth of a concubine. My mother stepped in and added two "sisters" to myself, and I accepted it well.
After all, she didn't rush to have a heart-to-heart relationship with Wei He Khan.
She is in a powerful position, Weihe Khan has nothing to do, that's all.
After Wei He Khan Yan's decision, the next biggest thing for the government and the public is to reward meritorious deeds.
Since the Qishan Palace where Shengjia is currently staying is inconvenient to hold a great victory, the Marquis of Jingning and others need to return to the capital to face the saint, and at the same time to show their demeanor to the imperial capital. Finally, they decided to come to Beijing slowly, taking advantage of the end of the emperor's summer vacation, to show off military exploits.
In a blink of an eye, it was the birthday of the loving mother, the Empress Dowager.
