Chapter 185: Honor in Troubled Times 153
Qianning Palace
Xiao Yingcai got a few ancient paintings and was playing with them, and Xiao Dezi carefully put the note from the secret guard on the table.
Xiao Ying put down the ancient painting, and before she was about to write, she saw the note on the case.
He picked it up and looked at it, and couldn't help but smile.
Xiao Dezi Hou was on the side: "Your Highness is in a good mood, do you want to go out for a walk?" ”
Xiao Ying waved his hand, and he put away the ancient painting well: "It's the Lu family's business, this Liu family is also a wonderful person, he was so cowardly earlier, but now he is about to stand up, but she's ...... She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to do the Gao family, so she hid in Zhuangzi, but she was still a little brainy, and she knew that if she took the dowry away, in terms of the current situation of the Lu family, without Liu's dowry, without Liu's help to take care of the Lu family's Zhuangzi shop, I was afraid that life would be sad. ”
Xiao Dezi also laughed when he heard this: "Speaking of which, this Mrs. Liu is not good, but she has inherited the business talent of the Liu family, and she is very good at managing business." ”
Xiao Ying sat down and took a sip of tea: "So very good, after all, it is the princess's maiden family, if you punish it alone, it will inevitably make people feel that you don't like the princess, and the people next to you will look down on the princess, so it's interesting to let them mess up their own house, how they bullied the princess before, and in the future, let them try how to be bullied, the old lady and Lu Shan are like this, the Liu family...... Hmph, she can't please either, it's better to lose both. ”
Xiao Dezi was surprised.
Xiao Ying asked Liu Cai to persuade Liu, and Xiao Dezi thought that Xiao Yingnian wanted to support Liu for the sake of Liu being the biological mother of the crown princess, so that the princess's life would be better.
Unexpectedly, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince actually let the Lu family fight among themselves, and let the three women who had bullied the crown princess fight with each other, and in the end, both sides lost.
If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't say it, Xiao Dezi would never have imagined it.
He thought about it now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really deserved to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so lightly, he solved the big trouble for the Crown Princess without a little effort, and also punished those who couldn't stand up to the Crown Princess.
"Your Highness is wise. ”
Xiao Dezi smiled and praised.
Xiao Ying waved her hand: "Don't be a sycophant, go, go to my treasury and pick up a few travelogues to send to the crown princess, and you will personally send them to the Lin Mansion and hand them over to the crown princess." ”
Xiao Dezi hurriedly agreed: "The crown princess is only afraid that she will be very happy, things are secondary, the key is the prince's intentions." ”
Xiao Ying knocked on Xiao Dezi's head: "Hurry up." ”
An Ning has been choosing several concubines for King Xinjun in the past few days, and in addition, she is also worried about Princess Zhaoyang and Princess Pingyang's marriage.
Princess Chuyang took a fancy to Wang Qi, An Ning didn't worry about her, Princess Fengyang had Qi Nanxue, she said that if she didn't marry, An Ning would not force her, only Zhaoyang and Pingyang were left, these two girls were more introverted, An Ning asked them what kind of horses they liked, and both of them said that An Ning was in charge, but An Ning couldn't get it.
An Ning has read a lot of information about the ladies and the number one young master in the capital in the past few days, but she can't choose a few that she likes.
She was looking at the information, and Princess Pingyang entered the door.
As soon as Princess Pingyang entered the door, she said to An Ning: "Queen Mother, Erchen chose the second son of the Song family. ”
An Ning thought for a long time before remembering who the second son of the Song family was.
The Song family is an old brand of family, with hundreds of years of inheritance, after the establishment of the Great Qi, the Song family took root in the capital, and there are several generations of officials in the court, and many families in the capital are close to each other, and the relationship network is very huge.
"You want to help your father stabilize the situation?"
This was the first thing that came to Anning's mind.
Princess Pingyang smiled: " For the sons, marrying anyone is the same, where is the life, with the mother taught the sons of the ability, the sons can live a good life anywhere, and no one can bully the sons, that is, why not do something useful, we Jing Dynasty was first built, many places need a smooth transition, the sons know that the father intends to weaken the power of the family, but now is not the time, the son marries the Song family, that is, to explain to the world that the father still believes in the family, this is to reassure the family, let them relax their vigilance, and wait until the future when the court is stable, the world is rich, and the people's hearts are towards the father, there are sons and ministers, and those families will not feel that the father will take them, at this time, when the father's knife falls, it is really clean and neat. ”
An Ning heard this and hugged Princess Pingyang in her arms: "It's hard for you, it's just that you feel sorry for you like this." ”
Princess Pingyang smiled: "Erchen is not aggrieved, Erchen is not embarrassed, Erchen is a princess, and after enjoying this glory and wealth, she must also take on the responsibility of a princess. ”
Pingyang is too sensible, so An Ning really feels sorry for her.
But this is Binh Duong's decision, and An Ning will not stop it.
"Now that you think about it, I will discuss it with your father, and I have to take a look at the second son of the Song family, if it is not good, we will not marry. ”
"I listen to the queen mother. ”
Pingyang hung his head, his face was red.
The matter of Pingyang is solved, and Zhaoyang is left.
After waiting for a few days, Zhaoyang came to An Ning and said that she had also chosen a colt, and she chose Li Chenshu's eldest son.
An Ning listened to what Zhaoyang said about the selection of horses, and couldn't help but sigh: "You are too sensible one by one, Zhaoyang, you must know that you don't have to be like this, your father and I just want you to live as wanton as Fengyang, let you live a flamboyant and happy life, not to let you be so cautious and sensible, and focus on the overall situation everywhere." ”
Zhaoyang said softly: "Can't Erchen live wantonly when he marries? Erchen is a princess, who family he marries to, and they dare to be disrespectful to Erchen? Erchen can live as much as he wants. ”
An Ning shook her head: "It's too distressing for you to make me a mother like this." ”
Li Chenshu was born in a reckless manner, when Xiao Yuan first accepted Dong Da, and then accepted Li Chenshu, a chivalrous man in the rivers and lakes, as a deputy general, these years, Li Chenshu has been following Xiao Yuan's southern expedition to the north, and has made great contributions, but he still has some habits in the rivers and lakes, and some swordsmen and knights on the rivers and lakes still have dealings, and the people in the rivers and lakes are also very respectful when they mention Li Chenshu.
Zhaoyang married Li Chenshu's eldest son because of this.
Zhaoyang wants to co-opt the Jianghu forces through Li Chenshu, and she wants to set up a department to manage those reckless and willful Jianghu knights.
In addition, Li Chenshu is still the top among the generals, and he is also very prestigious among the generals, if Zhaoyang marries Li Chenshu's eldest son, it will make those generals who follow Xiao Yuan fight the country feel at ease, and they can also stabilize the current court situation.
Zhaoyang is a sensitive person, she can already sense that Xiao Yuan wants to weaken the military power of the generals after the situation is stable, she married into the Li family, just to stabilize the military heart for Xiao Yuan, and then take this opportunity to persuade Li Chenshu to obediently hand over the military power for Xiao Yuan.
An Ning thought about the horses chosen by the four girls in the family, one by one, all from the overall situation.
Back then, Xiao Yuan needed Dong Da to fight for him, so Leyang chose Dong Da, a second-married man many years older than her, as his husband.
And the reason why Chu Yang wants to marry Wang Qi is because Wang Qi is the flesh and blood of the Xiao family, and secondly, because Wang Qi's identity is a scholar from a poor family, and he is a disciple of Mei Zhiyuan.
The marriage between Zhaoyang and Pingyang, one is to win over the generals and subdue the forces of the rivers and lakes, and the other is to have the motive to fool the family, these four children are really called An Ning and don't know what to say.
"Well, you've decided that this is it. ”
An Ning took Zhaoyang's hand: "The queen mother wants to tell you, no matter what happens in the future, you must live a satisfactory life, whatever makes you unhappy, you just have to kill it, everything has the father and mother to make decisions for you, I told you this, I also told Pingyang and Chu Yang, you are all the same, no matter how big the basket is, the father and mother will clean it up for you." ”
"Good. ”
Zhaoyang leaned on An Ning: "I won't let myself be aggrieved." ”
