Chunjia didn't even want to re-employ Xie Wuzheng, let alone let his direct descendant and promising future minister Deng Chengzhai have a relationship with the imperial concubine.
Just don’t…
After all, the beloved concubine brought it up so blatantly, so he couldn't just say that he was ruthless and that he would give up. If I was wrong, he would not give me any chance to threaten the heir apparent.
After thinking for a while, he said with a smile: "I have nothing to do with that matter. Bu Nao heard that he already has a woman he likes... I don't know who is specific. If Ah Huang wants to know, I will ask for me later. .”
I will ask Deng Chengzhai to finalize the marriage as soon as possible.
Anyone can be chosen, as long as she is a legitimate daughter carefully cultivated by a wealthy family, or a girl from the Xie family and the Jiang family.
Yun Fenghuang knew what he was thinking, and frowned without covering it up, sighing: "No? Then it's not a big deal... I originally thought that Meng'er is already that old... It's time to show her off."
Chunjia had a very good impression of Xie Meng. Firstly, Xie Meng looked exactly like Yun Fenghuang, and because Yun Fenghuang repeatedly complained about her inability to have children, the emperor was somewhat cruel to her; secondly, Although Lai Xie's fierce nature is more pampering, he doesn't have much power. The emperor did not like his children to be intelligent. Although their children are innocent, they still feel that they are innocent and lively.
In particular, aunt Yun Fenghuang was already very shrewd. If not, Xie Meng was also very smart, and Chunjia would become even more fearful.
When Yan Dong heard that he was thinking about it, he was a little hesitant.
Because in Chunjia's impression, the child Yun Fenghuang had general goodwill, and Xie Meng's niece was even more doting on her. After all, when she was unable to have children herself, she treated her as a daughter and placed her feelings on her children.
Originally, when the emperor saw the imperial concubine asking about Deng Chengzhai, he said that she was seeking to make plans for the future, so he refused.
But since that candidate is not worthy of Xie Meng, Chunjia can't help but feel that she is being too preoccupied? Maybe the imperial concubine thinks that Deng Chengzhai is a good husband candidate
After a slight hesitation, Chunjia said slowly: "Meng'er... are you almost ready to look at each other? But it's been several years since you left the cabinet, so there's no need to be in such a hurry?"
"Aren't you in a hurry?" Yun Fenghuang said quietly, "Your Majesty, Dong Yue, is very aware of the situation. Are you afraid that you have long forgotten the danger that the child was in before? It was almost... just a little bit close, and the child was... Fortunately, she was fine. Serious problem, if not, how can I explain to my parents? Furthermore, the child is the flesh and blood of my thirteenth brother and thirteenth sister-in-law, but she has been raised by my side since she was seven years old. In my eyes, she is not much different from Bi Zaoqing. Why don't I want to keep her by my side for a few more years? But the child has never met Yongchun Hou in private, and there are so many gossips in the palace. I am thinking , it is better to find a husband for her at that time. In the future, it will save people from seeing her in the palace and seeing the arrangement of heaven!"
Chunjia coughed dryly and reminded: "Ahuang, Concubine De may have misunderstood the matter between Xie Meng and Marquis Yongchun."
"Concubine De just mentioned it like that, just trying to beat the drum." Yun Fenghuang said lightly, "Those words that really made their aunt and nephew sad... I'm afraid no one will use them to taint Bidong Sheng!"
Then he said, "Originally, I didn't expect Deng Chengzhai, but Dong Bhidong also knew that I was from a humble background, and the children from various families I was familiar with in the past were no longer worthy of being matched with a strong man. But as for the noble son of a high-ranking family in the imperial capital, I am already I am not familiar with him, and I am afraid that I am not familiar with the Xie family. No, after thinking about it, I heard that Deng Chengzhai intends to marry a wife, and I can't help but have my thoughts moved. Of course, he is not familiar with this person, nor does he understand it. But in those years when I was with Bidong, I was very reused, so I think it's not bad... To be honest, based on that alone, I don't care very much. What I really care about is that his parents have been together. This world, if Meng'er can give it to him, he can be the master of the family after passing the door, and there is no need to worry about getting along with Weng Gu!"
Speaking of this, there was a hint of embarrassment and sadness in her eyes, which made Chunjia ponder.
The emperor thought about whether the concubine's words should have revealed her true feelings.
After all, he firmly believed that Yun Fenghuang was wrong about Xie Meng's sincerity, so it was not reasonable for Xie Meng to choose Deng Chengzhai. You must know that Yun Fenghuang himself can't get along with his loving mother, the Queen Mother, and has always been stumbling upon it? That doesn't mean Chunjia is attracted to her, she also has legs. The most important thing is that the Empress Dowager is a loving mother, and the Empress Dowager cannot intervene in the harem with any confidence.
Otherwise, Yun Fenghuang's confinement would be very difficult.
She hurt Xie Meng so much, she had suffered so much, and of course she didn't want Xie Meng to make the same mistake again.
In particular, Xie Meng looks like Yun Fenghuang, but his temperament is not even one-tenth that of that aunt. He is impulsive and indulgent.
Although Chunjia didn't like her, she knew very well that a girl like that would only be pampered by the younger generation. If she were a woman, she would be hard to please.
So, Chunjia thinks, should Yun Fenghuang just find a good husband for his niece without any other intentions
The emperor immediately became confused.
Out of the instinct of an emperor, he felt that even so, he should not agree to this matter.
The relationship between the prince and the Wei Dynasty is very important, and there are many stories about the decline of such a great dynasty due to competition for the prince in the previous dynasties. We don’t even need to look at the previous dynasty, let’s look at this dynasty. Didn’t the Ji family’s dominance and the decline of imperial power all begin with Sejong’s seizure of the crown prince
I want to know that Shizong had many descendants, and there were about thirty or forty adult heirs.
So what
When it came to Sejong's grandson Xiaozong, he had no heirs and had to adopt a distant branch to continue the throne!
Chunjia himself has suffered such hardships, and naturally he does not want his descendants to fall into a similar situation... By that time, with his precedent, to put it bluntly, all ministers in power will have their minds wet, and they will definitely not Made Ji's mistake.
With Yun Fenghuang's background, even if he has a niece-in-law who is a close minister, it may not be possible.
In particular, Deng Chengzhai and Chunjia were of the same age. Although the emperor had many things to do, Deng Chengzhai also had to deal with complicated government affairs. It was not certain who would go first between the emperor and his ministers.
Since Deng Chengzhai was not able to survive Chunjia to death, he begged the emperor not to change his original intention. Not to mention Deng Chengzhai's character, it was not feasible for his wife to stand up as a noble concubine. Even if he really did that, could he defeat the emperor
Chunjia was very confident about her legs.
He Ruming did not think that any of his ministers could disobey him.
But many things start to fall apart from little things.
The emperor doted on the concubine, but he did not intend to dethrone the concubine. Therefore, while doting on the concubine, he also used the palace change to express his position, which stopped the concubine's aggressiveness.
But at that time, could you please give the concubine's niece a husband who would be an important minister... The emperor himself knew that he still did not like the idea of the fifteenth prince as the heir apparent, but could the Didong people have random thoughts
There are some things that cannot be expected at all, and that is good for everyone.
Chunjia is very clear about this principle.
but…
Looking at the imperial concubine in front of me who was obviously very weak but still pretending to be in front of him, I thought about my worries and fears when she had a difficult delivery, and then I thought about Xie Meng's original intention of entering the palace, and the hard-won achievements of the fifteenth prince... Chunjia A little shaken again.
After all, Deng Chengzhai was a famous person, and he could handle himself well, so it seemed like nothing to make the imperial concubine happy...
Didn’t the imperial concubine feel aggrieved during her confinement period...
The emperor hesitated and said: "Yue Ting is a calm person, but Xie Meng is a little too out-of-the-box, and there is a big age gap between the two, so they may not be able to get along? Besides, Yue Ting wanted to get married at that time, so he probably wanted to get married right away. Married. Xie Meng... I think he will be twelve next year? Why don't we just leave the cabinet as soon as tomorrow?"
"Your Majesty, it is precisely because of Deng Chengzhai's stable nature that I am thinking of marrying Meng'er to him." Yun Fenghuang's heart moved. If the emperor didn't consider it at all, he was afraid that he would just use the same excuses at that time.
Now that I’m nitpicking, then…
It shows that there is cocoa in that matter!
She became a little weaker, half leaning on her crotch, and said with a sad smile, "Meng'er grew up right next to our knees. You also know what kind of person she is... To be honest, I didn't teach her well. You are such an old person, you are so innocent! If there is no more reliable person to watch, I can't rest assured! As for being older, it doesn't matter. Bidong is also older than me, could it be that I don't? Don’t you think it’s appropriate for me to serve you?”
I don’t know what we bastard men are thinking in their hearts.
I have always disliked women for being too old, but when have you ever disliked women for being too young
Yun Fenghuang continued his efforts and said, "As for Deng Chengzhai thinking about letting people come over immediately... I think that is not necessarily the case. After all, there were many wealthy families who wanted to marry their daughters to him two years ago, but he refused them all. ! I haven’t mentioned it in those years. When I mentioned it at that time, I guess I didn’t want to carefully choose the one I wanted. After all, it is natural to be more cautious about life-long events. Could you please tell me, so carefully selected? , where can we get married in a short while? Besides, he really wants to get married in a hurry, so that's okay. Let Meng'er get married first, and then consummate the marriage after she gets her hair."
That makes sense...
The emperor hesitated a little, and then said: "That's what we think. It's unclear whether Yueting and Xie Meng will get along... and, is Xie Meng himself happy?"
Yun Fenghuang said: "Although Meng'er is more pampered, he is the most filial, obedient, sensible and considerate. I have asked her about life-long matters privately early in the morning. She told me shyly and timidly, and she listened to everything. of!"
Wasn't he confused that day
At that time, what mattered was the words of a matchmaker ordered by parents. Even if the elders pampered and let the girl make her own decision, then the elders still had to make the decision!
Otherwise, if the news spreads, it will appear that girls are not reserved and dignified!
Besides, although Yun Fenghuang had an agenda for that marriage, it would be best if he refused.
Why didn't Xie Meng agree
Could it be that she couldn't even control a niece she had raised by herself? Wouldn't it be too unfair for the generals who were defeated by the imperial court in those years to die
Therefore, Yun Fenghuang didn't consider Xie Meng's thoughts at all, so he pulled Chunjia to persuade him on the grounds that Xie Meng's nature was simple, he didn't have a palace, and he was promised a noble son from a wealthy family. She began to wipe her tears and asked Chunjia if she disliked her: "I know that even if I bear the surname of 'Yun', in the final analysis, a daughter from a poor family of the Xie family in the border area can serve you in the Eastern Capital." Isn't it a blessing from heaven, let alone letting my niece marry a good one? But I have thought too much. I should have thought of it a long time ago. Whether I was able to be hired into the palace in the first place, it was just a coincidence! Otherwise, the concubine’s body suitability should be the same as that of Qu’s and Yi’s, and we should start by picking girls..."
She was crying and coughing, looking very weak and haggard. The attendants outside were all anxious when she heard this. The Qing people repeatedly called for people to get cough cream and other things, and then knelt down and begged Chunjia not to get angry: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is on your knees. Although she treats Princess Zhaoqing's daughter as her own, can Miss Meng be in front of the empress to keep Princess Zhaoqing longer? Miss Meng has always been filial to the empress, so how could the empress not be sincere when she wronged Miss Meng? Earlier, Miss Meng hung up the beam This thing has really shocked my lady! Since confinement, I have asked Miss Meng three times a day about the peace, just for fear of mistaking Miss Meng... Please tell me if that is the case. It’s my fault. Seeing the mistress in such agony, the maids were afraid that the concubine might be ill, so they persuaded the concubine to let Miss Meng look at one or two young talents. Now that Miss Meng has been found, the rumors will surely not go unchecked in the future, Miss Meng. I will no longer be ashamed to think narrowly..."
When the Qing people said that, Yun Fenghuang coughed for a while and managed to stop, and asked her to get out. Finally, he pushed Chun Jia away and supported his legs and arms, and said angrily: "I don't think my height depends on myself. I think I am the lintel of the Xie family." Although he is humble, Meng'er grew up in the palace and is a good match for Deng Chengzhai. From Ru Ming's point of view, I am just a whim! Who am I, my aunt and nephew, and how can I be a good match for him?"
Chunjia knew that she was speaking angrily, and would even give up before making progress, but seeing her face flushed from coughing, he felt heartbroken and couldn't help but gently persuade her to calm down: "What was I thinking about?" Are you going? Don’t you think it’s not a good idea for you to have an interfering minister’s marriage... I’m thinking about how to propose it to Yueting!”
Yun Fenghuang was not moved. After all, the emperor just said to mention it to Deng Chengzhai, and he didn't say how to mention it. Who knows if he would just deal with her and refuse her in the name of Deng Chengzhai
In fact, even if the emperor didn't hint that way, Deng Chengzhai probably wouldn't be happy to marry Xie Meng based on Yun Fenghuang's thoughts.
Because Deng Chengzhai started looking for a wife for himself after a few years. Most likely he had the same idea as Chunjia, so he was in a hurry to find a wife to take charge of the back house. How could he wait for Xie Meng and hairpins? Moreover, Deng Chengzhai himself may not like a half-grown child like Xie Meng.
So when you heard those words, you sneered: "Bidong is the Supreme Lord of Ninety-Five, why should I ask this? Besides, Deng Chengzhai was born as a companion of Bidong and had served Bidong for many years. Is it true that Bidong asked him about his personal affairs? Is he close and trustworthy? It’s too late for Deng Chengzhai to rejoice, but what’s so difficult for Bi Dong to say? Is it because their aunt and nephew’s humble status makes it difficult for a noble man like Bi Dong!”
After saying this, the tears came again, and he called the Qing people and asked her to pack things for Xie Meng, Xie Mei, Xie Kuo, and immediately sent them out of the palace, handed them over to Xie Xiaoyu, and sent them back to the Northland overnight!
"What are you doing staying there? Is it embarrassing for you to be so miserable?" Yun Feng Huang was very present, and he scolded Sang and Huai in front of him, "That Xuanqing Palace, I don't even know how terrible it is." They have been here for a few years, and they don’t want to leave. Could it be that they will be driven out in a few months? It’s better to go back to the North to get married while I’m here, which can save some face!”
Chun Jiamei's heart skipped a beat, and she felt a little bit overwhelmed: "Ahuang, don't ask for this! If you have something to say, if you can't say it properly, why bother mentioning the things that won't go away? I am not the head of the Xuanqing Palace, then I am the leader of the Xuanqing Palace. Why don’t you know how many years you have been living here? Who dares to evict Xie Meng and the others?!"
Why did Yun Fenghuang Ruming dislike him? That's nice to say!
In fact, if there are several times when he doesn't have an attack, isn't he pretending to be confused
She scowled, ignored him, and urged the Qing people to send away the three Xie Meng sisters. She also asked people to take good care of the fifteenth prince. She cried and said, "His son must grow up quickly." Okay! After he ties up his hair, I can also pack my bags and go with him and become a vassal!"
The old conversation was brought up again. Chunjia finally couldn't hold it any longer and scolded angrily: "It's done. I will tell Yueting later that I will grant him a marriage to Xie Meng, but don't say those words again?!"
