The Lofty Fierce Consort

Chapter 97

Views:

This is a bit of a sin, and Duke Zhen hurriedly reprimanded him, and then accused Emperor Xi of the crime: "Your Majesty Haihan, my granddaughter is young and ignorant."

Emperor Xi waved his hand, and even said that there is no harm, and laughed at the heart of this girl, which is quite amazing, and lamented that many people who are older than her have lived longer than her, and it is not as good as her understanding.

These words made people a little confused, and only a few people understood the meaning of it.

Duke Zhen Guo is one of them, and the one who knows the most.

If it is said that the Tian family has no father and son, the Tian family naturally has no brothers. Although Emperor Xi was the prince of the world, he sat in the position of the lord of the world, and there were many ups and downs. Emperor Xi is the head of the palace, and there are two younger brothers below. Maybe because his sons are not popular, the first empress dowager did not like Emperor Xi very much, but rather doted on the two younger sons.

As the crown prince and the eldest son, he was born with more burdens than others. When he was a child, Emperor Xi had already followed the Taifu Taishi to study strategy, people's livelihood, and the way of the imperial family. The two younger brothers were still coquettish in the arms of the mother. Emperor Xi was required to behave according to the norm, but the two younger brothers were mischievous under the connivance of the mother.

Maybe it was true love before, how can there be a mother who doesn't love her son.

It's just because of various reasons, I have to ask my son to be better than others, because you are the prince and the future master of Daxi, you must be better than others. If you want to be excellent, you must pay a lot of hard work. Naturally, you can't be like the two younger brothers.

Gradually, the relationship faded, the mother and son were more like outsiders, the brothers were not very affectionate, and they rarely even said a word on weekdays.

As Emperor Xi grew up, the queen always asked Emperor Xi to treat his two younger brothers well in the future, knowing that it was because of him that the two younger brothers had to give in.

Indeed, all of them came from the middle palace. He didn't even have two younger brothers who were favored by his father and mother. Just because he was older, he naturally became the heir, Daxi's future king of a country.

Emperor Xi understood this, and he made a lot of concessions to his mother and two younger brothers.

Maybe because of all this, or maybe the queen seems really worried about the saying that there are no brothers in Tianjia, always afraid that Emperor Xi will not be good to his two younger brothers when he ascends the throne in the future. In private, he would deliberately sing the opposite, wantonly admiring the two younger sons, turning his head and facing the Emperor Xi with another face—

You have already got so much, why are you fighting for so little favor with your two younger brothers? Don't you know that your two younger brothers are going to leave the capital in the future, and then they all point to whether your father and emperor have feelings for them, and whether you, the elder brother, are thinking of them.

You are already very good, you can stay by the side of your father and mother, and in the future you will be above your two younger brothers, what more do you want

Even if these words were never spoken, Emperor Xi understood.

Just because I understand it makes me more sad.

Could it be that I am not your son

It's a pity that such words can never be said. In addition, Emperor Xi has gradually come into contact with the affairs of the court. He has always been busy, and he has no time to hurt Qiuyue. He can only stay far away, so as not to be injured.

After that, he just did his own thing and watched helplessly as his mother spoiled the two younger brothers to the sky. It even violated the example of the vassal of the vassal. After the two younger brothers became adults, they had fiefs, but they did not go to Beijing to become vassal.

The late emperor's health has always been bad, and when Emperor Xi could take on a side, he gradually handed over the affairs of the court to him. He takes care of himself wholeheartedly and rarely asks about foreign affairs. The queen was even more arrogant and domineering. As long as Emperor Xi suggested something wrong, she would press Emperor Xi with filial piety and brotherly affection.

After that, when the first emperor passed away, Emperor Xi almost failed to ascend to the throne of the emperor. He was still supported by the loyal and loyal Duke Zhen Guo before he took the position that should belong to him.

Of course, this is not the end. Because people don't die in a day, Zuo Biao will continue to die.

Empress Yinxi became the empress dowager above, but she frequently suppressed him with the only status that could surpass the emperor. No amount of affection and filial piety can withstand this kind of wear and tear, especially how could Emperor Xi, who was raised as a prince from childhood, be a simple person. In addition, the two younger brothers were no longer as innocent and young as they used to be. With the support of the Empress Dowager, they made friends with courtiers and nobles, and they did not add much to Emperor Xi.

When new hatred and old hatred are added together, it is inevitable that they will turn against each other.

Before her death, the empress dowager murmured and scolded Emperor Xi for being vicious, saying that the Tian family really had no brothers.

But the truth and right and wrong of things, no one can say clearly.

The turmoil in the dynasty that lasted for most of the dynasty also slowly subsided with the death of the empress dowager and the two vassal kings.

Duke Zhen Guo understood that His Majesty was from Jing Siren, and sighed in his heart!

"Your pure heart is good, but it's a pity to know that people are fickle, even if you are sure that your brother will be as good to you as always. But time flies, time flies, with the passage of time, coupled with external forces Many things are easy to change, and nothing can change faster than people’s hearts.”

Emperor Xi's words contained a hint of desolation, and this change made everyone's heart tighten and their breath suffocated.

Yan Yan didn't notice that the atmosphere had changed, she frowned and pondered for a while, and replied, "The servant girl doesn't understand what His Majesty said, but the servant girl knows that if you live your life, you will probably be inseparable from gold and silver. One day, as His Majesty said, ministers and daughters can bring their own belongings and live on their own."

"Then won't you be sad about it?"

Yan Yan thought this time longer than the previous few times, and after a while, she raised her head and replied, "Since Your Majesty has said that people are fickle, it can be seen that manpower cannot be stopped. That's fine. As for the future, I'll talk about it later. If he still treats me as my sister, I will treat him as my brother. If he really changes, then the road will go to one side, and everything should be worthy of the heart. ."

This simple question and answer, you come and I go, if it is just two ordinary people, everyone will probably forget it as a joke. But because one of them is Emperor Xi, it makes people think deeply.

Historically, the words of high-ranking people have deep meanings, and it is likely that it is just a seemingly inconspicuous remark, which is mixed with many meanings. People who have been in officialdom for a long time, all understand these truths, and they all pass and pass the words of Emperor Xi back and forth in their ears, only to break them into pieces and ponder them carefully.

The same is true for the crown prince, the second prince, and the third prince. Could it be that the father and the emperor said this to them

As for the fourth and fifth, one seems to be focusing on eating, but in fact, his attention is all on the field, and he has countless praises in his heart. The other one was like wood, with no extra expression on his face, sitting quietly like a monk.

Emperor Xi was stunned for a moment, then turned to high five and laughed, "It's a good road to go to one side! It's a good one, but I want to be worthy of my heart! But I still take it for granted, how can things be so simple!"

He sighed for a while with a little sigh, and then returned to the topic. It seemed that he really cared about this little girl with strange thoughts, and suggested: "I think it's better for you to marry a woman, and it is the right way for a woman to marry."

Yan Yan has long been impatient at this moment, and she talked a lot about it. After a while, she said that she couldn't get married, and she was worried about what if A Mo would treat her badly in the future? After a while, he said that she was better off getting married. What did the old man want to say

She frowned and looked at Emperor Xi.

Luo Huaiyuan on the side was nervous, this was a sign that the little princess was going to get angry.

Facts have proved that he thinks too much, no matter what Yan Yan does, he will not be angry with the king of a country, and he is not tired of living.

"Since Your Majesty is so concerned about the marriage of the minister's daughter, why don't your Majesty help the minister's daughter to talk about the marriage? With His Majesty's support, I believe that in the future, after the minister's daughter is married, everything will go smoothly!"

It also prevents her mother from always worrying about what to do if she can't marry.

Emperor Xi laughed again, and said to Zhen Guo justice: "It seems that your granddaughter is not a stubborn one, and you know how to pull Zhen to support her."

Duke Zhen Guo lowered his head and coughed lightly: "This granddaughter, this old minister, has nothing to do with her words and deeds, and it's a blessing that Your Majesty doesn't blame her."

Wherever there is a blame, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Xi appreciates this little girl very much. Emperor Xi was always happy and angry, but today he is rarely very happy.

Emperor Xi looked at the little girl standing below with a smile, full of interest: "Then tell me, what kind of person do you want to marry?"

Isn't this Emperor Xi's brain broken

It is estimated that many people present thought so, but no one dared to show it in public. The higher-ranking person showed great interest, and the lower-ranking person naturally couldn't fall behind.

There are old people who have spoken in front of Emperor Xi, and they all say, 'My grandfather, this granddaughter is a wonderful person, it would be great if the old minister also had such a lovely granddaughter', 'like a piece of rough jade, pure and clean',' Little dolls are good' and so on, that's all.

Everyone was waiting for Yan Yan's answer. She simply broke the jar and smashed it. Anyway, today's event will inevitably spread in Beijing, and it is difficult to get married. Today, the second prince suddenly asks for marriage in public.

This matter itself is a dead end. If Yan Yan wants to reject the second prince, she must have a suitable reason. Naturally, she can't say that the emperor's son is not good, so she can only belittle herself. In addition, she also understood why the second prince wanted to marry her, so she simply let him avoid her from now on.

"The body is healthy, there is no hidden disease, and it is taller than the servant girl. The key is to be able to endure the character of the servant girl, to be single-minded and good to the servant girl, to put me first in everything, and not to take concubines. There is no bad mother-in-law."

The first few sentences can still be heard, and it will also make people admire the woman's approachable eyes. The more I talk about it, the more indecent it becomes in the end. What can't take concubines, what men put women first, and what doesn't have a bad mother-in-law

This is really a child's language, absurd and ridiculous, just like the faces of those who praised her before the bright slap.

The expressions of the people in the field became strange, including Emperor Xi.

He was a bit sarcastic, "Men have three wives and four concubines is the right way, why is there a saying that they can't take concubines? Women should treat their husbands as gods, which are the three principles and five constants, and daughters-in-law should be filial to their mother-in-law. What do you say?"

Having said that, Emperor Xi glanced at Duke Zhen Guo with an inexplicable understanding, and Duke Zhen Guo's expression was a little gloomy.

"There are many women who are right and wrong, and they are all locked in a back house. Isn't it like a cockfight all day long? There will never be peace at home."

This sentence said that apart from Yan Yan, the faces of the only two women and children suddenly looked better. The biggest backyard in the world is the harem. Empress Xiao and Concubine Xu are not fighting like cockfights all day long.

You Qi Di smiled and glanced at the two of them, which made their faces pale and blue, blue and white.

Yan Yan continued neatly: "He's not nice to me, why should I marry him?"

"There is an inherent unequal status between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. There are those who are unreasonable and like to use filial piety to oppress others. It is obviously her fault, and the daughter-in-law has to swallow it up. And once a woman gets married, she will face her mother-in-law more time than her husband. It will take a long time, if there is an old and immortal demon, will that day be able to live? There is no such suffocation in the world, anyway, the ministers and daughters can't bear it."

This is the truth in Yan Yan's heart, not a single lie.

The reason why good words are good is because people never say the deepest words in their hearts that are not suitable for publicity, and the words they say are always embellished. Yan Yan has no concealment of her innermost thoughts, which is really shocking to the world.

I have to say that Yan Yan is now more and more liked by Emperor Xi.

At first, it was only because the little girl said and answered that she was in her own heart. In order to refuse the second prince's public request for marriage, she did not hesitate to degrade herself. Emperor Xi was born as the emperor, so she couldn't let the little girl suffer. After the conversation, I saw that she was straightforward, decisive and forthright, and her thoughts were often different from ordinary people, but her careful thinking was quite reasonable. In addition, some words pierced some hidden deep inside of Emperor Xi's heart, and he was quite impressed with her.

At this time, seeing that what the two were talking about was extremely absurd, some of Yan Yan's words were quite shocking, but they once again hit Emperor Xi's mind.

That is Princess Mingshan.

Emperor Xi's sons were weak, and there were only two princesses, both of whom were born of low-status concubines. Princess Mingshan, the eldest daughter of Emperor Xi, was born to a concubine.

Princess Mingshan received the most orthodox court education since she was a child.

This is only limited to before the marriage. After the marriage, Princess Mingshan's life was not very smooth.

To put it bluntly, it is just one point, his temper is too soft, and he follows the three obedience and four virtues. It doesn't matter that men like women's three obedience and four virtues and set an example of women's morality, but they are extremely unwilling to change their daughters.

Married a royal princess, but the concubine's family did not dare to bully her. The concubine has nothing to choose from, but there is an unkind mother-in-law who never beats and scolds you, but only uses filial piety and various soft knives to deal with you.

Princess Mingshan was always unhappy when she went back to the palace.

Afterwards, Emperor Xi checked carefully and realized that his daughter was really not doing well, only to find that her daughter seemed to be raised a little crookedly.

His royal princess should be like the little girl in front of him, with domineering sideways and wanton publicity, it is the best! How can my emperor's daughter still be angry with her in-laws

What are you afraid of? The sky has been pierced, and his father is holding it up!

Of course, these words can't be said, and Emperor Xi's carriage and horse Fangming can't teach his daughter to bully her in-law's family. He also asked the empress and even Princess Mingshan's mother-in-law to give her a word or two, but she was not enlightened and couldn't even help her.

It simply makes Emperor Xi hate that iron cannot become steel!

"Looking at what you said with so much righteous indignation, but you're feeling it? You're old and don't die. This is a unique statement, but it's a very appropriate description. What do you think, the concubine of Mingshan?"

This Mengshan hunt, naturally, Princess Mingshan and her concubine were indispensable. The concubine also participated in today's hunting, but it was not conspicuous among the young talents.

Seeing His Majesty ask him by name, the concubine's face immediately flushed, and she knelt down trembling.

"Go back to your majesty, minister, minister..."

With a tired face, Emperor Xi waved him back to the seat without even looking at him.

Family affairs have always been the most difficult thing to deal with in the world. Emperor Xi hated that iron could not be made of steel, and was anxious to do it on the side. His daughter was used to it, but she didn't think it was a big deal. Why should he be a wicked person who destroys her daughter's family.

It's just, my heart is suffocating!

When I saw Yan Yan today, what she said and said was shocking to the world. It seemed to be absurd, but it was undeniable that she had her truth.

Such a little girl, lively and wanton flying, really couldn't bear to break her wings and make her disappear to the public, her face blurred like that of thousands of women all over the world.

It seems that Emperor Xi and Yan Yan have talked so much, but in fact, he planned to settle her marriage on the spot first, and directly cut off some people's thoughts. Now his thoughts have not changed, but he has more compassion and care.

Emperor Xi didn't ask Yan Yan any more, but pointed at her and said loudly with a smile: "I like this little girl very much, all of you Aiqing's family must have suitable children, but they are willing to ask for marriage for the younger generation in the family. Right? Let’s talk about it first, the conditions for the little girl are here, don’t go forward and take it down if it’s not suitable.”

He added, "If the little girl hadn't looked down on my second emperor, I really wanted to marry her back to be my daughter-in-law!"

There was silence below.

Who dares to take this

Not to mention that the second prince asked for marriage first, but was rejected by this little girl who was doing shocking things.

It is also impossible to take a concubine, but also to put her first, especially the last point, the younger generation of which family does not have a biological mother, if it is good to you, it is naturally a good mother-in-law, if it is not good, it will become a bad mother-in-law. But this conclusion of likes and dislikes is really hard to say. Could it be that if you marry a daughter-in-law, you don't even need filial piety

Seeing that His Majesty is so open to support him, and there is also a difficult Duke Zhen Guo, marrying her, unless you want to make an ancestor in the house in the future, not to mention the risk of offending Xu Guifei's family. risks of.

No one dared to speak out.

Emperor Xi pursed his lips tightly and seemed a little unhappy.

The atmosphere at the scene was very awkward.

Just as Duke Zhen was about to open his mouth to relieve the siege, Emperor Xi spoke again, "Oh, it seems that you are really not good at marrying, you see that no one dares to speak with so many honorable ministers, is it possible that my vision is really bad, and no one dares to speak? Do you think you are good?"

Yan Yan glanced at him and was too lazy to think about what this strange majesty thought.

"The minister's daughter has already said that there are no good people who are willing to marry a woman like the minister's daughter. Let's not talk about the minister's temperament, the minister's daughter has practiced martial arts since childhood, and if there is a conflict between husband and wife in marriage in the future, he will Move your mouth, the minister and daughter will start with him, if he does, it is estimated that he will not be able to beat the little girl."

She paused, then turned slightly to the ugly-looking second prince sitting on the seat and clasped his fists and bowed: "So, it's not that you are bad for the second prince, but that the ministers and daughters are really not worthy of you, and I hope the second prince can understand."

It can be regarded as an explanation for the previous refusal to ask for marriage. In order to take care of the dignity of the second prince and the face of Emperor Xi, Yan Yan must have refused such a marriage.

The face of the people above has been taken care of, and the only one who has not taken care of it is herself.

Duke Zhen Guo's expression was not obvious, but in fact he was already burning with anger.

The children of my own family feel distressed, a little girl who has not yet reached the age of the hairpin, for the intrigue of these people, she does not hesitate to smear herself in public. In fact, at this point, many people present have understood that it is not so much that this little girl does not want to marry, it is better to say that someone above does not want her to marry, at least not to marry the second prince. And Emperor Xi's detours are not obvious, that is, he wants to do it once and for all, and cut off some people's thoughts.

After all, this girl from the Yan family was the only granddaughter of Duke Zhen Guo, and she was deeply loved by him. Today, I blocked a second prince, who knows if there will be a third prince in the future, or go back and think clearly that a strong man will marry someone if he breaks his wrist

Without the strong man breaking his wrist, the second prince took a deep breath and stood up.

Before he could make a sound, he saw that one person raised his hand high, jumped up, and directly knocked over the table in front of him, spilling delicious wine and food on the ground.

The Fourth Prince again!

I saw him in a mess, with a timid expression that seemed to shrink.

Seeing everyone looking at him, he seemed to be in a panic, but he still said, "Father, father and emperor, my son is willing to share your worries for you!"

After saying the first sentence, he seemed to have gathered up his courage and walked up to Yan Yan and said, "Well, look at me, I'm taller than you, and I don't have any hidden problems, but I'm a little fatter."

Speaking of the word fat, he seemed ashamed and lowered his head, "Uh, I think you have a good personality. You were surrounded by wolves that day, and you have always protected me. Your martial arts are so good, you will definitely be able to protect me in the future. I. I am sure that you are the first in everything, and I live alone in one house. My mother and concubine will stay in the palace to serve the father and the emperor. In the future, when I am an adult, we will go to the fiefdom, so you have no mother-in-law who will bully you. Then I'm so fat, no woman will like me, and naturally she won't take a concubine."

He looked up shyly and glanced at Yan Yan again, Bai Chuan's face was slightly red, "I will definitely treat you well in the future, can you see?"

Which one is this

Many people on the field have come to accept incompetence.

The second prince frowned and glanced at the clown-like fourth prince, and scolded, "Fourth prince, don't make trouble!"

He cupped his hands to Yan Yan again and said, "Miss Yan is a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows, she is frank and straightforward, and doesn't stick to worldly eyes. This prince really appreciates this quality of the girl..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted again, only to see Luo Huaiyuan muttering in a 'soft voice': "Second emperor brother, why did the emperor make trouble? The emperor thinks Miss Yan is very good. The kindness should be reciprocated by the spring, and this life-saving grace must naturally be promised. You can't do it, your mother is so powerful, you don't meet the conditions."

The powerful concubine Xu Gui had a face as black as the bottom of a pot.

If she could roar, her reaction would probably be that you are amazing, your whole family is amazing, which one of your fat fat eyes sees how amazing the old lady is? The Lun family is so gentle as water!

The corners of Yan Yan's mouth, which had been tightly pursed, couldn't help but cocked and straightened again.

The second prince resisted his anger, "First of all, everyone knows that my mother-in-law is a gentle and kind person. In addition, this prince will go to the fief when he is an adult. The mother-in-law will stay in the capital to serve the father and the emperor, and the situation with the fourth emperor's younger brother. Pretty much. And—"

"You still can't do it! You are too handsome, and people who are too handsome will be attracted to flowers." Then he said to Yan Yan, "Look at me, I don't look like a flower at all. Naturally, there are no butterflies and bees here. provoke."

Looking too handsome, could it be wrong? ! Is it safe to be fat and fat if you have to look like you

Empress Xiao, who had been watching the play, supported the phoenix hairpin on her head, and said to Emperor Xi with a smile: "I didn't find out that we are actually quite suitable for girls from the Yan family. One soft and one rigid, just combined, let's Yuan'er is the honor of the prince, and it doesn't count as humiliating the Yan family girl."

Emperor Xi seemed to have some consideration and nodded, "What do you think?"

It was Yan Yan who asked this question.

"The ministers and daughters dare not choose between the two His Royal Highnesses, please let Your Majesty decide."

With a helpless expression on his face, Emperor Xi glanced at the second prince, "Jin'er, you don't have to stand up to relieve your father's worries, your temper is indeed not suitable for your fourth emperor's younger brother. Your mother and concubine are still waiting for you to spread the branches and hug your grandson. Well, how can you not take a concubine."

"Father-"

"That's it, tomorrow I will decree that the two of you will marry. As for the date of the big wedding, choose another day."

After speaking, Emperor Xi stood up and left.

The events of this evening are really climax/tide, which is dizzying.

Those who don't understand, naturally see it as a farce, and those who understand, naturally know that this is just a game of superiors.

Empress Xiao left with Emperor Xi, and Concubine Xu naturally did not pull down. The people above all dispersed, and the people below naturally also left one after another.

Yan Ting came over with a gloomy expression, as if he wanted to take his daughter away.

Zhen Guogong came over, glanced at him, and said to Yan Yan, "Ayan, grandpa has someone send you back."

Yan Yan nodded.

Just as he was about to leave, he shouted loudly.

"You fat pig, how dare you grab a woman from my second emperor brother!"

Seeing something smashed into the air, Yan Yan was standing not far from Luo Huaiyuan. Seeing that he couldn't dodge him in time, she could only pull out her whip and swipe in the air.

Accompanied by the cracking sound of the porcelain, it is the fine wine that has been spilled.

What followed was a swift attack, Yan Yan pulled Luo Huaiyuan behind him and blocked it. After a few tricks, the two stopped when the second prince stopped.

"Three emperors, what are you doing? You are doing this to have an opinion on the father!"

"Second brother, I-"

The second prince pressed him down and apologized to Luo Huaiyuan: "Fourth emperor brother, please don't take offense, you also know that your third emperor brother is too angry, and he was also angry for a while."

Yan Yan laughed angrily, "A bad temper is an excuse. If you have a bad temper, you can beat people at will? Then if I have a bad temper, can I go up and beat him?"

The third prince was arrogant and provocative behind the second prince, "Come here if you have the ability!"

Yan Yan sneered, "Or let's make a gesture, and the beaten are not allowed to go back and complain!"

"You little girl, don't think that your father will give you to this fat man, and I won't dare to beat you!"

"Otherwise, let's try to see who beats whom?"

The third prince tightly clenched his fists and bared his teeth.

The strength of this little girl's film is really great. His martial arts have always been a mighty way, and he did two tricks right with her, but he didn't ask for any cheapness at all.

"Since Your Majesty has promised me to betrothed to him, he will be the person I cover in the future. If you dare to trouble him again, be careful that I see you and beat you once."

"Ayan must not be rude!"

Yan Yan snorted and went to the side of Duke Zhen Guo.

"Haihan, your two royal highnesses, the little granddaughter of this old man has no status!"

The second prince was full of apologies, "It's the third brother who is reckless, please don't take offense to Duke Zhen!"

The two politely said a few words, and Duke Zhen took Yan Yan away. The second prince looked at the backs of the two for a long time before turning his head.

"Fourth Emperor Brother, do it yourself."

After he finished speaking, he left with the third prince who was still staring at him.

Luo Huaiyuan doesn't appear on the surface, but in fact he is arrogant on the inside, when I am afraid of you!

It's more ecstasy, hahahaha, he can finally marry the little princess!
