The marriage princess sent by Xikun, Emperor Ning originally wanted to promise to the eldest prince.
The two countries have been at war for many years, and it is the first time to establish diplomatic relations, and even the first time to marry. Emperor Ning took it seriously and wanted to marry him as the emperor's eldest son.
After learning that this was Xikun's plan to slow down the army, he lost his mood and casually pointed the princess to an ordinary child in the clan.
The Xikun envoys were not upset when they heard that the princess was a concubine, and Emperor Kun asked her to marry her only to create an illusion of friendship, and no one cared about her married life.
"Princess Xikun is on the way, and she will arrive at the imperial capital in five days. At that time, the royal family will hold a big wedding banquet, so they will also hold Danyang and Yin Shuo's wedding, double happiness."
It has been two months since Emperor Ning recovered from his illness, and his attitude towards the First Prince and Second Prince has gradually returned to normal, but he is not as trusting and loving as before.
Today, he specially summoned them to the imperial study to discuss this matter.
The eldest prince smiled and said: "Father has always been diligent and thrifty, and the two major marriages of the royal family are handled together, which can save a lot of expenses. Besides, Danyang is not young, father is wise."
Ying Ming ass.
If Emperor Ning hadn't lost trust in Yin Shuo and suddenly proposed to form a cabinet, would he still say he was wise
The second prince's face is not good-looking, "Father, shouldn't the marriage of Danyang be postponed for a while? When Xikun envoys and princesses go to Beijing, there will be many miscellaneous things crowded together, and Danyang's marriage will be added. Didn't you lose face to me, Dong Ling?"
It's better to wait until Yin Shuo loses his position as prime minister, so that Princess Danyang doesn't have to marry him.
He only has a younger sister like Danyang, who has to marry the most powerful minister in the court, how can he marry a minister who has lost his favor like Yin Shuo
The eldest prince raised his eyebrows and smiled playfully, "Second brother, what's wrong? You were the one who urged the Ministry of Rites to supervise Danyang's wedding and dowry before, wishing she could get married sooner. Now that the emperor wants her to get married, you are pushing back and forth. I don't understand this."
Emperor Ning hung his head and did not speak, listening to his two sons arguing.
The second prince hurriedly said: "There was nothing wrong with the court before, Danyang is your sister and I certainly hope that she will marry Mr. Ruyi sooner. But now there is something in the court, how can we ignore national affairs for the sake of brother-sister friendship? Of course The first priority is to receive the Xikun envoys well!"
"Didn't the second brother listen to what my father said? Holding Danyang and Princess Xikun's marriage together will not only save manpower and material resources, but also give Xikun's reconciled princess face. Her marriage can be held together with our Princess Dongling. Praise her, how can this be called disregarding national affairs?"
"Brother's words are wrong—"
"Okay, shut up for me!"
Emperor Ning raised his head and frowned in displeasure, "Danyang is my daughter and also your imperial sister, so I asked you to discuss her marriage, not for you to argue endlessly! Cheng Zhi, what do you want Yixi?" The marriage between Kun and Kun is the most important thing, so you still look down on Yin Shuo, a sister-in-law?"
The second prince was stunned, and immediately lowered his head and cupped his hands, "Father misunderstood, I didn't mean that! Prime Minister Yin is a rare young talent in Dongling, how could I look down on him?"
Emperor Ning stared at him for a long time, finally nodded slowly, and looked away.
Cold sweat broke out on his back, trying to figure out the meaning of Emperor Ning's words.
Emperor Ning was just about to establish a cabinet, and Yin Shuo was still the prime minister, so he sensed that he disliked his sister-in-law. Wasn't that clearly telling Emperor Ning that he wanted to win over the powerful officials in the court
Emperor Ning never brought up the matter of setting up the crown prince, which shows that he is afraid of him, and he can't afford to be rash right now.
The eldest prince doesn't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, "Really? How did I hear that the second brother ran to the Prime Minister's mansion a few days ago, and he was sending supplements and rare treasures. It seems that I haven't heard of it these days. The second younger brother will go again. It’s not that he disliked Prime Minister Yin, but why?”
Emperor Ning's eyes fell on the second prince again.
"Is what your elder brother said true?"
"No, it's not!"
The second prince subconsciously denied it, and thought for a moment and said, "I didn't just give gifts to Prime Minister Yin, I also gave gifts to other people, such as Yufu's younger sister. Originally, I wanted to give something to my father, but my father these days I don't like to see the princes, so I didn't come. The elder brother also has a gift, and I will order someone to deliver it to the eldest prince's residence in a while."
"Oh? I also have a share?"
The eldest prince said with a smile: "Second brother has always been generous, unlike his brother and mother who are weak and often stretched. But why does second brother wantonly give gifts to everyone?"
The second prince straightened his waist and said with a smile: "I seldom see my father these days, so I have been thinking about whether I am not sitting well, which made my father angry. After thinking hard, I feel that I usually act mean and ungrateful. So I think Make up for the mistakes of the past, disperse those things outside of the body, and form good karma."
He said that he was like an eminent monk, but he was watertight. The eldest prince couldn't refute for a while, so he just laughed twice.
Emperor Ning nodded, "I am very pleased that you are aware of your shortcomings. Yin Shuo is your sister-in-law, and Yufu is also your sister in name. I am relieved when you get closer. Then it is settled Alright, Danyang's wedding will be held with Princess Xikun, and it will be scheduled in half a month."
"One is Princess Heqin, and the other is your younger sister. Don't be lazy, both of you, go to the Ministry of Rites to help take care of you these days!"
The eldest prince looked at the second prince from the corner of his eyes, smiled and cupped his hands, "Yes, father."
