In the entire Great Qi court, there were only three people who could put pressure on Princess Xiaoyue Meng Qingqian.
The first one, needless to say, is Han Wenxin, the great prime minister who is in charge of half of the country.
The second place is the young emperor who represents Da Qi's orthodoxy.
The third place is Meng Qingqian's biological mother, Empress Dowager Li.
Although the queen mother is no longer involved in government affairs, has no military power in her hands, and does not have sufficient financial resources, at most she can only use part of the resources belonging to her mother's Jiangnan Li family. But she has a unique advantage in dealing with Meng Qingqian, that is, she is Meng Qingqian's biological mother.
Needless to say, the state of Qi respects etiquette, and parents have a huge influence on their children.
No matter how powerful Meng Qingqian is, she still needs her mother's nod in matters of marriage.
In other words, although the Empress Dowager could not press Meng Qingqian's head and let her like someone, she could not let Meng Qingqian marry. Therefore, Yang Zhe wanted to use his brains to please the Queen Mother besides Meng Qingqian himself.
But before, the Yang family of Hexi had also heard about the Queen Mother's reputation, and felt that she was only mediocre and nothing to worry about.
It was never expected that the Empress Dowager could be so strong in her children's private affairs while following the trend in government affairs.
When Yang Xingguang heard that the Empress Dowager planned to give Xu Xiaoyue to the He family, he immediately panicked.
Yang Xingguang knew that the Yang clan would have to be handed over to Yang Zhe sooner or later. After all, he was a rare civil and military double champion in the Qi Kingdom. And Yang Zhe, the nephew of the family, is good everywhere, but emotionally, he seems to be possessed by a demon, and he puts all his heart on Xiaoyue.
This girl Xiaoyue has vision, ability, and artifice, not to mention Yin Jing, even in the whole country of Qi, it is rare for her to be dissatisfied. If they can really marry Yang Zhe, this couple will be able to keep the Hexi Yang family prosperous for a hundred years.
Therefore, Yang Xingguang himself, together with the Yang family, almost abandoned their vacillating neutral position, and followed Yang Zhe to the Meng family.
Ask for nothing but people.
With people, with the talents of the two of them, any resources can be doubled.
Now that people are almost gone, even Yang Xingguang, who has always acted savagely, is a little unsteady.
This is not only a matter of the children's affair, but also the countless resources that the Yang family has invested in the past few years. If they really can't marry Meng Qingqian, not to mention all of these resources will be in vain, and most of them will be considered as a loss.
Yang Xingguang didn't care about wiping his official uniform that was soaked in tea, he immediately got up and knelt down, saluted and persuaded him: "The Queen Mother thinks twice! Your Royal Highness is involved in political affairs, you must not marry willfully, and let us wait without a leader!"
Huang Qinghe saw that Yang Shangshu had already taken the lead in the charge, so he quickly joined the group and persuaded, "The Queen Mother think twice!"
Nanzhu's marriage will not affect He Yuanhao's position, but Xiaoyue is different. Xiaoyue's marriage might really make He Yuanhao change his family, Han and Meng were originally in balance, but when He Yuanhao fell, the Meng family had the upper hand. This is not good for Dayan.
Lu Liang also chose to follow the regiment: "The Queen Mother think twice!"
Compared with them, Li Gongqin has the status of a foreign relative. Although he is the empress dowager's nephew, he also knows his aunt's temperament, so he immediately called the clever maids in the empress dowager's palace, and went to the Changhe palace to invite the lord to come over.
Then Li Gongqin also persuaded: "Queen Mother, it is best to ask His Highness about His Highness's marriage."
He Yuanhao went to court every day and knew Meng Qingqian's ability well. It would be the best if the queen mother intends to marry Meng Qingqian to the He family. With Meng Qingqian's methods, she might not be able to control He Yunxiao.
He Yuanhao simply said: "What the Empress Dowager said is true. It's because I didn't think carefully and didn't prepare a complete dowry gift. After thinking about it again and again, I felt that adding items to the gift list would be time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it would be too much to ask the Empress Dowager to look at it later. Trouble. The minister thought, why not do this, the Marquis Mansion will prepare another copy of the dowry on this gift list, and use double the dowry to marry Princess Xiaoyue!"
The queen mother's eyes lit up.
She felt that a father is like a son, He Yunxiao is not simple, He Yuanhao is also a talent!
One dowry is really not enough, two are more than enough.
"Okay! Bengong is very satisfied. Then this matter..."
Seeing that the Queen Mother was about to agree, Li Gongqin was sweating profusely.
He knew in his heart that his cousin would not agree to this marriage, and he also knew that his aunt was just talking for a while, not counting. But it happens that my aunt's status is so extraordinary, it's really not countable and inappropriate.
My aunt has always been weak in front of her cousin, and as long as Xiaoyue herself comes to this matter, it can be completely resolved.
Li Gongqin looked at the entrance of the hall frequently, and Meng Qingqian was not seen for a long time.
Yang Xingguang was more anxious than Li Gongqin. To other families, Meng Qingqian's marriage was just a trivial matter such as watching the excitement, bleeding, and having no leader. For the Yang family, this is a major event related to the family's century-old future!
Let alone a hundred years, according to Yang Zhe's personality, when Meng Qingqian married someone, he would be stupid if he was serious, or even drag the family to make trouble and take revenge. In this way, it is not known whether there is still Yang family in Hexi in the future.
He Yuanhao, an old fellow, doesn't talk about martial arts at all, and just engages in sneak attacks when he comes up!
The operation of doubling the dowry on the spot, is that something a human being can do
Yang Xingguang said in a deep voice: "Think twice, Queen Mother! Your Highness Xiaoyue's marriage needs to be discussed in the long run! Once Your Highness gets married, who will be in charge of us, civil and military officials, and various surnames? My emperor is so good, who will take care of him in the future? Yang Zhe and others admire the talents of Qi State day and night, what will they do in the future?"
The queen mother didn't think about it that much at the time, but after hearing what Yang Xingguang said, she understood the situation in her heart.
At this time, marrying Xiaoyue out is really impulsive.
The Empress Dowager said: "Marquis Wuqing, you should keep the gift list first, and after three years, Xiaoyue will hand over the power, and the Holy One will be in court, and then you..."
He Yuanhao put on the air of a general, and said: "Queen Mother, just listen to what I have to say."
The queen mother said: "You say."
He Yuanhao said loudly: "In other words, a country cannot be without a king for a day, and the ministers think so. But now, the king is still there, the ministers are still there, the officials are still there, and the Qi army is still there. All the men and women of Qi are still alive, so why rely on one Weak women are struggling to support? My government pays more than a million yuan every year, and tens of thousands of officials at all levels. If you can’t make decisions and you have to rely on your highness to make decisions, what use does the court want you for?”
Huang Qinghe retorted: "Master He, you have the support of the prime minister, so you don't care about my pain!"
He Yuanhao waved his sleeves, and proudly said: "Okay! This Marquis will take off this official uniform tomorrow, and give up the residence of the Marquis to the Eldest Princess, and put on the armor to guard the frontier!"
When Lu Liang heard that He Yuanhao was guarding the frontier, he thought to himself: That is impossible. You guard the frontier, how did my Yan army go south
The lesser of the two evils, compared to Meng Qiang and Han Ruo in Qi, Lu Liang was more afraid of He Yuanhao going to guard the frontier, so he immediately rebelled, saying: "Queen Mother! I suddenly feel that it is really good for His Royal Highness Xiaoyue to marry into the Hou Mansion!"
Yang Xingguang saw that Lu Liang turned against him, so he didn't care about face at this time.
On the spot, he said: "Queen Mother! In ancient times, marriages have always focused on being well-matched. His Royal Highness Xiaoyue has a distinguished background, and if he wants to marry, he is also marrying the lord of a country. Second, it has to be the mansion of a duke for generations, or a powerful family. The He Mansion is just a newcomer How can the residence of the Marquis deserve to be married and lived in by His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess?"
As soon as Yang Xingguang said this, everyone in the audience was shocked.
He Yuanhao is an official who worships as a general, and his rank is at the second rank. In the whole Yinjing, there are very few people who dare to say that the He family and the family are not good, and those who are qualified to say that the He family is not good. However, the Yang family in Hexi and other aristocratic families have all kinds of civil and military, black and white, and a hundred-year-old tumbler with mixed forces and deep roots. It is indeed possible to severely suppress the newly promoted Hou's mansion in terms of family background.
Everyone knows that the aristocratic family can suppress the Hou family, but it takes a lot of courage to dare to face the Hou Ye in public.
The empress dowager's bedroom was silent for a moment.
At this moment, a piece of metal fell to the ground like thunder.
"Boom!"
Before everyone saw clearly what the fallen object was, Marquis He Yuanhao of Wuqing picked it up first.
Holding this object to dust off, He Yuanhao smiled and said: "Oh, I accidentally dropped the soldier talisman on the ground. I'm sorry everyone, you continue to talk, let me see if the iron bump is not broken."
Thanks: No more than seven words, a reward from the boss! And a monthly pass!
