"emperor."
Inside Fengluan Palace, the queen handed a cup of ginseng tea to the emperor's hand, sat down on the other side of the Luohan bed, looked at the small porcelain bottle the emperor was playing with, and said gently, "This is Yue A birthday present for you, girl?"
The emperor put down the small porcelain bottle with the longevity pattern, and said with relief: "Yue girl also asked Lin Shenyi to change the recipe. It took nearly a month to make such a small bottle, which is really intentional."
Emperor Shengshou received so many gifts, and most of them were put into the warehouse without even looking at them. Only the Buddhist scriptures copied by the second prince and the health pills made by Nangong Yue were specially taken out by him. Especially this health pill has been playing with it since the birthday banquet.
The emperor sighed, and said with some uncertainty: "Empress, are you too impatient to let those two children get married?"
"According to what the concubine sees, this matter is a little urgent." Seeing the emperor frowning, the queen said softly, "Although the concubine has no biological daughters, several of the emperor's princesses are daughters of the concubine. The girl's family is delicate, Even an ordinary big family in the people would have to prepare a dowry for a long time to marry a daughter, let alone a famous family like Nangong Mansion. I am afraid that Mrs. Nangong has not even prepared the dowry yet, so you just let the girl rush. Married, this is indeed a bit..."
The queen didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was obvious. It was two years before Nangong Yue's wedding date, and the Nangong family had enough time to prepare for the dowry, but now the wedding date was not only ahead of schedule, but also so suddenly that people were caught off guard. If a girl's family is in such a hurry to get married, and the dowry is not neat, it will be a bit wronged.
No, I'm afraid it's not just a grievance, it might even make people look down on it.
"The queen is right." The emperor mused and nodded his head, "I'm in a hurry about this. Let's just let the internal affairs of the government handle the marriage for these two children. Anyway, both the Zhennan king and the princess are If you are not in the capital, the three books and six ceremonies can only be worthy of one book and three rites. You can't let Brother Yi come to do it yourself. As for the dowry, just follow the prince's example. Light is... that's right, and the dowry for the girl Yue, I'm afraid it's too late for the Nangong family. Empress, it's hard for you to go and show it up, just... just do it as a princess."
Originally, the emperor was hesitant to let Xiao Yi go back to the southern border, but the 3,000-mile rush made him completely determined. However, for these two children, especially for Nangong Yue, he still felt a little guilty, so he also wanted to make up for them both.
The queen replied gently: "Your Majesty, you can leave it to the concubine. The girl Yue is something we have grown up with, and the concubine will make her a red makeup like a daughter, and marry her beautifully."
The emperor nodded in satisfaction and said, "The queen is naturally relieved when she does things."
Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, the queen smiled again and said, "The king and wife of Zhennan are not in the capital now. When the day is to welcome them in person, why don't you stand up for these two children, and how about giving them a respect?"
"That's a good idea." The emperor applauded and patted his hands, "When the time comes, I will go with the queen to officiate their marriage!"
...
Because of Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue's sudden early marriage, not only the empress had a hard time, but the Nangong Mansion was also devastated at this time, especially the Lin family, who was even more worried, feeling that the sky was about to fall.
"Hey!" Lin sighed again at the dowry list and muttered to himself, "There are only ten days left, no, the dowry has to be delivered to the Zhennan Palace one day in advance, which means there are only nine days left. Is it too late? Although we can barely gather some things in the warehouse, but those are not new things, how can we get them. The furniture of the new house is too late to make..."
The more Lin Shi said, the more irritable he became, and he couldn't help but sigh again. Since Eunuch Liu left, Mrs. Lin has sighed for an incomprehensible amount.
"Mother, don't sigh anymore!" Nangong Xin couldn't help but stretch out her hand to smooth the folds between Lin's eyebrows, "Isn't it a good thing that my sister wants to marry A Yi?"
"What do you know?" Mrs Lin gave her son a rare look, and then turned to look at Nangong Yue with pity. She should have spent several years preparing her dowry, so that her daughter would be married in a beautiful and beautiful way. Go out and make others envious.
But what about now? However, he could only barely make up a dowry, and I'm afraid that he could not even make up one hundred and twenty-eight lifts!
Time is so rushed!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Lin felt heartache, took Nangong Yue's hand and said, "Sister Yue, can you ask the emperor to extend the wedding for another half a month... Maybe the person sent by Mother to Jiangnan to buy the dowry can do it? Hurry back." Anyway, there can be some good things to make up the number.
Nangong Yue couldn't help but think of that day when he talked with Lin shi about buying a dowry, and Lin shi was so happy at that moment, his face seemed to be glowing.
My mother has always been like this, she is wholeheartedly devoted to herself and her brother, but she has failed her wholeheartedly.
Nangong Yue wanted to comfort Lin Shi very much, but she knew it was impossible.
She was about to say something to coax Lin, when Nangong Mu's voice suddenly sounded from the door: "Ruoyan, it's impossible to delay the wedding."
Nangong Mu's complex eyes paused on Nangong Yue, and then said: "Just now, the eldest brother got the news, and the emperor also issued an imperial decree to the Zhennan palace. In addition to the marriage, he also ordered Ayi to return to the door with Sister Yue the next day. Just return to the southern border to fight the southern barbarians..."
Lin Shi let out a low voice in disbelief, and Hua Rong looked at her daughter in disbelief. Even if Lin Shi usually ignores the affairs of the court, he understands the emperor's intentions.
She said in a trembling voice, "Then...isn't Sister Yue..." Did she become Xiao Yi's proton in the capital?
Thinking of this, Lin's eyes were already red. If something happened to Xiao Yi, wouldn't Sister Yue be a widow? If Xiao Yi never returns to the capital, will the emperor be angry with Sister Yue for this? The more Lin thought about it, the more nervous he became.
Seeing Lin's like this, Nangong Yue felt a little guilty in her heart, because her own affairs made her mother worry about her, and it was indeed her fault.
"Mother, Yi will return triumphantly!" Nangongxin said confidently, her eyes as clear as the blue sky shone brightly, "Sister, do you think so?"
Nangong Yue nodded vigorously, with a smile on her lips, and said, "Of course. Yi will be back soon."
Nangong Mu stepped forward and patted Lin's shoulder soothingly: "Ruoyan, don't think about it. What we should think about now is how to make Sister Yue's marriage decent."
This imperial edict has been issued, everything is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed. That being the case, it is better to do what they can do.
It is enough for a daughter to marry in such a hurry. As parents, how can they make their daughter's marriage too shabby and make this marriage a laughing stock for others.
"Xiang Gong, what you said is true." Lin shi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. There are too many things to do, and she has no time to worry about it. The most important thing now is to make the daughter's marriage as best as possible.
"Ruoyan, don't be too upset. Even if the dowry bought by Jiangnan can't be delivered for a while, you can still prepare it. When everything is ready in the future, you can make it up for Sister Yue." Nangong Mu comforted.
Lin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly echoed: "Xianggong, this is a good way!"
Nangong Yue also said jokingly: "Mother, you must call me the step-up bed that you agreed to last time!"
"Okay. Mother will let you find the best carpenter to fight for you, and you need all the furniture." Lin said that he was in a much better mood, although this dowry is usually used by those suddenly rich to compensate for their daughters who have already married. Yes, for the family, it is really a loss of face, and would never do this, but when she thinks of her daughter getting married in a hurry, the Lin family can't care about anything.
Compared to a daughter, what is face! ?
Lin Shi was thinking about what he could use in the warehouse to make up the number, and suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly said to Nangong Mu: "Xiang Gong, you'd better go to see Yi once. Yi has no elders in Wangdu, and this wedding will take place. There are so many things to prepare, and Yi is young and has not done anything..." After speaking, she became worried again. When it comes to weddings, the man is no less busy than the woman, such as decorating the new house, preparing dowry gifts, and wedding banquets, etc. How could Xiao Yi understand these! If something went wrong in the wedding, it wouldn't be beautiful!
Nangong Mu nodded and said, "Ruoyan, what you said is that tomorrow I will go to Yi, and it is best for him to find a suitable elder to help manage the wedding." Although Nangong Mu can also help, but they are women, If you do too much and get it wrong, your daughter may end up with a reputation for clinging and hating marriage.
While talking, a little maid hurried in to report: "Second Master, Second Madam, the First Young Mistress is here."
Lin Shi naturally ordered her to welcome Liu Qingqing in.
As soon as Liu Qingqing entered the room and saw Nangong Mu also, he said apologetically, "Second uncle, second aunt, niece-in-law bothered me."
"Qingqing, you are too polite." Lin Shi smiled disapprovingly.
"Sister-in-law, we are all a family, so why be so polite." Nangong Yue got up with a smile and took Liu Qingqing to sit beside her.
If Nangong Mu was not here, maybe Liu Qingqing would really sit in Qianyunyuan for a while, but at this moment she would not be so ignorant, so she would simply say a long story short: "Second Aunt, I'm here to disturb you so late because I'm thinking about the third sister's marriage. ..." She glanced at Nangong Yue with a smile, "It's only ten days before the wedding, time is really tight, I'm afraid there are a lot of things to prepare, I think you may be too busy, Second Aunt, what can I do? Yes, don't be polite to me."
Liu Qingqing looked at Lin's and Nangongyue sincerely, Lin's and Nangongyue had done too much for her, and all she could repay were these little things.
Lin Shi was really too busy, so he nodded and said, "Then Qingqing, I will not be polite to you."
In this way, in the early morning of the next day, under the leadership of Lin and Liu Qingqing, the people in Nangong Mansion got busy. Not only did they have to buy a lot of things, but they also had to arrange the sewing room in the mansion to make wedding dresses for Nangong Yue. Sewing purses, quilts, etc. The rest of the chair covers, bed curtains, curtains, curtains, and large pieces of embroidery can only be bought ready-made in the capital...
Originally, this style, pattern, etc. can be carefully considered, but now they can only follow the most conventional way.
Lin was as busy as a top, but she still felt sad from time to time. For a while, she felt that this wronged her daughter, and then she felt that this could actually be better, but it's a pity that the wedding date is too urgent...
At noon that day, another imperial decree hit the Lin family and did not respond for a while. The emperor decreed that the marriage of Xiao Yi and Nangong Yue would be arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs would prepare a dowry for Nangong Yue. On weekdays, only the marriage of the prince and the princess is handled by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The emperor's move is definitely a kind of honor. The Su family is overjoyed, and Nangong Yue is also relieved, thinking that the Lin family can be less busy because of this.
Who would have thought that Mrs. Lin would not be the boss at all, insisting that the dowry of the Ministry of Internal Affairs belongs to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and that she, as a mother, must prepare a dowry for her daughter. But the emperor's imperial decree still made Lin's face show off a little. After all, she was worried that she was too hasty and wronged her daughter, but now with the dowry from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, it should be worth it.
As soon as the Ministry of Internal Affairs made a move, it was indeed too generous. Whether it was the price or quantity of purchases, many shops in Wangdu were in a commotion... But the next day, almost half of the people in Wangdu knew that the Prince of Zhennan was going to be big. Married, and the wedding will be even more lively than the first prince's!
At the same time, in the past two days, the gate of the palace was also very lively. A girl in filial piety knelt at the gate of the palace every morning, saying that she wanted to sue the imperial court.
On the first day, she was chased away by the guards guarding the gate, but on the second day, she appeared again, and fell to her knees again with a plop.
When the guards saw her, they frowned.
One of the white-faced guards took a few steps forward, shook his saber impatiently, and said, "Girl, don't come again! Otherwise, we're really welcome!"
Another short-bearded guard also came over and said, "Aliu, why are you being so polite to her? As I see it, just blow it away!" He kicked the girl in white with a heavy kick. On the body, the poor girl fell to the ground with a scream.
"Girl, are you alright?" An onlooker student rushed up and shouted at the guards indignantly, "You're going too far! This girl just wants to avenge her father!"
The short-bearded guard said coldly: "Poor scholar, you can see where this place is. The palace is behind it! If you make trouble here, you deserve to die here!"
The girl in white looked at the scholar sadly, "Young Master, thank you for being brave, don't hurt yourself for the slave family."
She climbed up from the ground with difficulty, leaving only a quiet but strong back for the scholar and other onlookers. The people whispered and were indignant!
On the third day, the girl in white did not appear at the gate of the palace again, and the guards secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but they did not know that the other party was bold enough to go to Guiyuan Pavilion.
Outside Guiyuan Pavilion, a few guests came out, and suddenly a girl in white rushed over from the side and shouted sadly: "Noble, noble, the people's daughter is wronged, please be the master of the people's daughter!" She knelt on the ground and kowtowed to one of the dignified-looking middle-aged men, "The people's daughter asks the nobles to be the masters of the people's daughter, and redress the injustice for the father of the people's daughter!"
The girl in white is beautiful and slender, and her voice is poignant and moving, which quickly attracted the attention of passers-by. They all stopped and looked up at the noble person in the mouth of the lady in filial piety. They saw that the middle-aged man had a dignified appearance and an extraordinary bearing, and beside him He also followed the four young sons like the stars and the moon.
These four young masters are all dragons and phoenixes among people. They are elegant, elegant, noble, gentle, and hearty.
Looking at the young masters looking at the middle-aged man, he can see that the identity of the middle-aged man must be very precious. Some good people can't help but speculate in their hearts, and they don't know which royal relative this person is? !
Suddenly, a fat old lady remembered something and exclaimed, "I remembered it! No wonder I think this girl is familiar. Isn't this girl Li who defended her father?"
"Miss Li? But that Miss Li?"
The legendary Miss Li is now considered a celebrity in the capital. As soon as the fat aunt said it, the old lady beside her also remembered it.
Not only the two of them, but also many people in the crowd, whispering to each other.
The deeds of this girl Li defending her father's grievances have been spread all over the capital. Now that girl Li has asked this noble person, she must be a goddess.
Could it be that... is that one? Some people have boldly and secretly speculated.
That's right, this middle-aged man is the emperor who rarely goes out on tour in small clothes.
The emperor's face is not very good-looking, and his heart sinks, his whereabouts have been leaked, who is it?
Xiao Yi stood on the right hand of the emperor, the corner of his mouth curved like a smile, and he exchanged a wink with Guan Yubai next to him.
On the left of the emperor is the eldest son of the Weiyang Hou family. He took a half step forward and shouted: "Bold, you dare to disturb the nobles, and don't retreat quickly!"
Miss Li kowtowed again and again: "Your honor, the prince of Zhennan has a high position, and there is nowhere for the people to seek justice. That's why you are so bold, I beg you to be the master of the people!"
At this time, a passerby also stepped forward and said in a righteous manner: "My lord, this Miss Li is so pitiful. She stopped the sedan chair and called for injustice. She went to the palace several times to sue the imperial court, but she was repeatedly arrested. drive away..."
"Yes, yes..." Another person also complained for her, "Miss Li really has nowhere to sue..."
One after another, several more people helped Miss Li to intercede, and the emperor's expression changed, and he instructed the guards at the rear: "Bring people in." After a pause, he said in a low voice, "Xuan The Governor of Jingzhao and the Third Prince are here!" After speaking, he turned around and entered Guiyuan Pavilion again.
"Yes!" The two guards led the way, and the other guard brought the girl Li into Guiyuan Pavilion.
The emperor wanted to announce the matter of the governor of Jingzhao and the third prince, and the people around him naturally heard it. The eldest son of the Weiyang Hou family couldn't help but be a little astonished. This is a matter of course for the governor of Xuanjingzhao, but the third prince of Xuanjing is worth pondering! Could it be that this matter has something to do with the Third Prince?
Several people returned to the private seat on the second floor of Guiyuan Pavilion. The girl Li waited tremblingly. She thought that the emperor would ask her to question her, but until the governor of Jingzhao came in a hurry, the emperor still ignored her.
When the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture saw Miss Li, he felt bad, but he could only pretend to calmly greet the emperor.
No one expected that the emperor just ordered the governor of Jingzhao to take people away, and he didn't say anything else. Although Jingzhao Prefecture Yin was still a little confused, he immediately took the order to take people away, and he had a headache.
After this person is taken away, will he be locked up, or will he offer it up?
Since ancient times, trying to figure out the holy will has been a huge problem!
The governor of Jingzhao Prefecture left in a hurry, and after another cup of tea, the guards brought Han Lingfu into the private seat.
Along the way, Han Lingfu tried several times to test the guards who led him, but the other party's mouth was so tight that he didn't reveal a word. Therefore, when he saw the emperor in the elegant seat, in addition to the emperor in Weifu, there were Xiao Yi, Guan Yubai, Yuan Yuan. When Ling Bai and the eldest son of the Weiyang Hou family, there was a flash of surprise and suspicion in his eyes, and he immediately disappeared.
He didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly bowed to the emperor: "I don't know if the father and the emperor called his son here, but what are your orders?"
It's okay if he didn't ask, but when he asked, the emperor became even more angry, feeling that this son was really worrying, and he made troubles one after another, and even made all the kings watch jokes.
The emperor was so angry that he put the teacup in his hand heavily on the table and made a "pop" sound.
The gongs and drums sounded, and the show finally started. The corners of Xiao Yi's mouth were raised even higher.
"Royal father, even if the son has done something wrong, you must give the son a chance to defend himself." Han Lingfu felt even more aggrieved. He didn't do anything at all, and the royal father just ignored so much in front of him. Outsiders scolded him.
Han Lingfu felt aggrieved, and the eldest son of the Weiyang Hou family felt even more aggrieved. He was just accompanying the emperor on a tour, which was originally a good errand, but now he is involved in the emperor's housework! He really wanted to cover his eyes and plug his ears, pretending that he didn't see or hear anything.
Seeing that Han Lingfu was still aggrieved, the emperor smiled instead of anger: "Okay, then I will give you a chance to defend yourself! Today, I went out of the palace in a light dress, and after drinking tea in Guiyuan Pavilion, I was stopped by someone as soon as I left the door. Now." The emperor raised his eyebrows, his voice almost squeezed out of his throat, "It's still a girl, a filial daughter who is praised by everyone!"
Filial daughter! ? Han Lingfu's pupils shrank suddenly, how could it be possible?
The emperor continued in a cold tone: "Sanhuang'er, why do you think she is so coincidental that she just stopped my way and asked me to be the master of her?" In an instant, his eyes were sharp like a sword, "Sanhuanger, What do you think about this?"
Han Lingfu was sweating coldly behind his back, almost stunned, he was already... how could it be? ... Now that the royal father specially called himself here, and said the words just now, did he doubt himself? ...No, he can't mess himself up.
"Royal father..." Han Lingfu said with consideration, "Yi Erchen speculates that the woman must have seen the respectful expressions of Shizi Xiao and Marquis Anyi, and felt that you are a noble person who can rule for her, and that's why... …”
"You bastard." The emperor smashed the cup in his hand without thinking. The cup wiped Han Lingfu's face and fell to the ground with a bang, making Han Lingfu's unfinished words swallowed.
"Didn't you encourage that woman to go to Jingzhao Mansion to sue for a while, and then stop the sedan chair to complain?" The emperor said sternly. Last time, after Zhang Yushi impeached Xiao Yi in the Golden Palace, the emperor on the one hand ordered Xiao Yi to be immobilized, and on the other hand, he secretly ordered Jin Yiwei to investigate the matter, but he did not want to find out that it was related to the third prince Han Lingfu. It was also learned from this that Yushi Zhang did not know when he became the party of the three princes. This investigation really made the emperor's heart shudder.
He is still alive and well, but his courtiers have formed a party without authorization and are ready to elect a new master? !
It's just that at that time, although the emperor was unhappy, but because he was worried about the affairs of Nanjiang, he didn't know what to do with Nanjiang and Xiao Yi, so he temporarily put Han Lingfu's affairs aside. Children can really toss! Just refuse to let his father be quiet for a while!
Unexpectedly, the emperor really knew! Han Lingfu's heart sank, and he hurriedly explained: "Father, my son just saw that the woman was pitiful at the time, and that's why people brought up a few words..." At this time, Han Lingfu's heart was numb, panic, doubt, surprise... flooded my mind. what on earth is it?
"Tell me a few words?" The emperor's forehead twitched with blue veins, "Can you tell me the whereabouts of that woman?" The emperor was angry when he thought that his whereabouts were being watched and a commoner woman dashed in front of him. Yi Taotian couldn't help but think, if this is an assassin...
Thinking of this, the emperor looked at Han Lingfu as cold as a cold winter, "Or are you dissatisfied with my handling?"
Han Lingfu was frightened by the sight, and hurriedly said: "Father, even if my son has the courage, he would not dare to question his father's orders, and he would not dare to inquire about his father's whereabouts!"
Han Lingfu was really bitter and couldn't tell. After the emperor ordered Xiao Yi to return to the southern border, he knew that he could no longer pursue Xiao Yi, and hurriedly ordered someone to suspend the matter. Why is this woman still making trouble? He even ran to the emperor to complain!
Could it be that something went wrong in the middle, and his order was not conveyed? ...Or, someone was behind the scenes and took the opportunity to stab him?
"You really think I'm a fool, don't you?" The emperor looked at Han Lingfu in disappointment, but he didn't expect him to admit it now. The emperor did not dislike the prince's scheming, without scheming, without scheming, how to do things for himself, how to deal with those officials?
But now, he has just made a decree to push Xiao Yi to the dangerous place of internal and external troubles in the southern border. Xiao Yi's departure is even more unpredictable, and his life and death are unpredictable! At this juncture, Han Lingfu actually wanted to trouble Xiao Yi undisturbed, and even wanted to make things bigger. Obviously, he didn't take his father and emperor in his eyes, which really disappointed him!
The more the emperor thought about it, the more angry he became. He pointed at Han Lingfu's nose and rebuked, "You rebel..."
After speaking, he looked at Xiao Yi, "Today, Brother Yi is also here, you might as well make it clear, what kind of hatred does Brother Yi have with you, it is worth your unrelenting..."
The emperor narrowed his eyes, thinking of some possibility. Could it be that Han Lingfu is involved with someone in Southern Border? The more the emperor thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. If Han Lingfu really wanted to be in the southern border, his heart would be too big!
Xiao Yi smiled and said: "The emperor is not angry, I think the third prince and the little nephew just have some misunderstandings. You know that the little nephew has always been outspoken, and sometimes it is inevitable that he offends people without knowing it."
Yuan Lingbai heard the words and slandered in his heart: what "accidentally" offends people, in his opinion, only offending people "intentionally and deliberately" fits the character of this eldest brother!
"Your Majesty," the official language on the side had a smile on his white lips, his voice was soft, making people feel like a breeze, "His Royal Highness the third prince has always served the country and the people. The court supplemented the military resources, and the minister admired it, and the minister thought that there might be some misunderstanding in this."
Han Lingfu's face stiffened. On the day of his birthday, he did propose to turn over the 200,000 silver from the opening of the mansion to the imperial court as military resources, but as the repeated crossbow he offered was rejected, the matter naturally didn't come to an end. Now that Guan Yubai mentions this matter again, doesn't he really want to give away the 200,000 taels?
Seeing that Han Lingfu's face was a little unnatural, the emperor's doubts became even heavier, and he couldn't help thinking of the new crossbow. Although the new crossbow was finally rejected by the official language, but now that I think about it carefully, Han Lingfu even willingly offered the money to Kaifu. To pay for the army, and to ask himself to go to the northern border, is it really just as simple as transporting crossbows and iron arrows, rather than to gather the hearts of the army? ! He secretly developed such a powerful bow and crossbow without telling himself, really just as a birthday gift...
The emperor's deep eyes fell on Han Lingfu. He saw that Han Lingfu was cold all over his body, his back was wet and ice, and he was shocked, scared and hated. Who is this who made him suffer such a big loss?
