Chapter 422: Joy and Sorrow
During the Chinese New Year, they received someone to report to the official, and the officials were a little depressed, but looking at the heavy weight of the red envelopes given by the people, the officials pushed him stunned and asked him to go to the back office to inform the adults. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The adults who accompanied their wife and grandson to post the Spring Festival couplets learned that someone had come to report that their eldest lord had been killed, and the adults were a little unhappy, and the younger grandson said to the yacha beside him, "My grandfather will help them redress their grievances, you let them go back with confidence!
Picking up the little grandson, the adult nodded and said to the yacha, "Send someone to put the defendant in prison, and wait for the seal to be opened in the next year, and then the trial will be held." ”
Yacha responded with a smile, and hurriedly went out to tell the Yan family who came to report to the official.
After a while, I saw a team of fierce and vicious yacha, who went out of the yamen with the Yan family's steward, and those side branches who made trouble, after the eldest lord swallowed his breath, wanted to slip away, but Yan Qi's girl had already sent someone to guard the door and not let him leave, otherwise the yacha wanted to arrest people, but I am afraid that it would not be so easy.
Soon, all those relatives entered the yamen, along with several Yan family aunts and their subordinates.
The aunt and grandmother knew that her husband was also involved, and she was so frightened that her legs were weak, and the maids who came with her mother-in-law pushed them and told them to make trouble with Miss Yan Liu.
In the end, even the maids went into the cell. Chunshou smiled and said to Li Qian.
"Why are even they locked up?" asked Lan Tang as he ate an orange.
Yunzhu brought her a cup of tea, "Who let them do too much, and even pushed their aunt and grandmother down, Yan Qi girl had already seen that they were not pleasing to the eye, so she let the yacha arrest them together, a few of them, said that they were maids, and they were dressed more exquisitely than the master, saying that they were just maids, who would believe them?"
Lan Tang followed Lan Hai to the Yan family a few times, Yun Zhu followed to wait, when Lan Hai's father and daughter were busy in the house, she ran inside and out, so she had seen several aunts and grandmothers of the Yan family and the people waiting around them, so she couldn't be clearer.
"Just grab them all. Li Qianqian turned his head and asked Lan Tang, "They hurt Master Yan and affected Mr. Lan, and now that Master Yan is dead, even if they can't be convicted by this and let them spend the New Year in prison, it can be regarded as an outlet for Mr. Lan." ”
Lan Tang nodded, "Yes." ”
Lan Hai learned that Master Yan had passed away, and his mood was very low, the two of them rarely talked very well, and they were both loving fathers who were devoted to their daughters, Master Yan had seven daughters, married five, and two were in the boudoir, the same as his Lan Tang.
Li Shu drank with him, and when he heard him say that his daughter was raised and wanted to get married, but when he asked about his son-in-law, he couldn't help but jump on his forehead.
He didn't get married, he didn't have a daughter, but he had apprentices! Lan Hai chattered in his mouth, the unconscious sons-in-law of Master Yan, and the daughters who were so weak that they made people sigh, Li Shu couldn't help but compare them with Li Qianqian, not to know, but to know that his apprentices were indeed good.
This is the son-in-law...... Feng San is good, but is there anything better? He doesn't want to marry his apprentice into the high gate, what kind of prince and noble family, that is a place to toss people, so his little girl doesn't have to bear that burden for others.
I don't know what Li Jingshi thinks? Counting the days, the little girl seems to be almost over, so she has to hurry up and dispose of all the Dharma protectors before she can reach the time.
Lan Hai didn't know what Li Shu was thinking, he was only sad that he had a friend who could talk, and as for his daughter's marriage, he really didn't know what kind of husband to choose for her.
The owner of Fengzhuang is too deep, although his daughter has liked him since she was a child, but he is not optimistic, and that kid is not interesting to his daughter, Meng Dasheng is not bad, but that kid is too soft-hearted, and he can't distinguish between priorities and priorities, it's okay to be friends, if he really marries him, Lan Hai is worried that his daughter will be affected.
As for Feng Er and Feng San, Feng San's little guy was staring at Li Qianqian early, Feng Er still had to recuperate at the moment, and it didn't look like he had any other thoughts about his daughter.
Counting with his fingers, Lan Hai counted all the candidates of the right age he knew, but unfortunately none of them made him feel good enough to marry a girl.
Lan Tang didn't know that her father was worried about her marriage, "Mrs. Yao doesn't seem to be very good." ”
Mrs. Yao's physical condition is actually worse than that of Master Yan, but she has a strong sense of survival, so she has been able to survive until now, and she knows that once she dies, her daughter will be left alone, and she doesn't see her daughter have a good home, so it is really difficult to feel at ease.
Earlier, she entrusted a matchmaker to find a suitable partner for her daughter, but until now, there is no good news at all.
didn't know that Lady Yao quietly blocked the matchmaker and didn't allow her to find a partner for herself.
The matchmaker takes money on both sides and doesn't have to do things, so why not?
Lan Tang saw her, and when she thought that her situation was similar to that of Master Yan, she couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Don't worry, Lady Yao is not a simple person, do you think she wants to know that the relatives of the side branch have bad intentions, and will they indulge them into the house?" Li Qianqian said while peeling oranges.
"Haven't you forgotten, right? Their Yao family is now left with her mother and daughter?" Lan Tang took the orange petal from Li Qianqian's hand and said.
Li Qianqian smiled, "Did my sister forget her aunt's house?"
Lan Tang also smiled, "She and her mother both know that her aunt hates their mother and daughter, and she won't easily lose her guard against them." ”
That's just as well.
Those side branches of the Yan family had no bad deeds before that, how could the Yan family be wary of them.
"But, it reminded me. Lan Tang Zhengse said to Li Qianqian, "I think I have to remind the Great Sect Master that the Dharma Protector has to be dealt with, but the General Altar still has to send someone to watch it closely." ”
In fact, as early as when he learned that He Shilang's secret room contained a lot of treasures in Li Shu's mother's dowry treasury, as well as treasures that should be in the treasury of Ruiyao Sect, Li Shu immediately sent someone back to the main altar to count the treasury.
Lan Tang didn't know about it.
"Why did you suddenly remember this?"
"It's hard to guard against thieves!" Lan Tang held Li Qianqian's hand, "You see, Master Yan is kind and generous to his relatives, but how do his relatives treat him? Although the Great Sect Master is not as kind as him, he has always been generous to the clansmen, and we are often not in the main altar, who knows if those clansmen will be like those relatives of the Yan family, others promise some benefits, and they don't care about the good of the Great Sect Master?"
It's not impossible.
In the past, there was a great elder sitting in the main altar, and He Shilang and they could all steal the property from the treasury, but now there is no great elder here, even if there is a big brother Li Da Lao, so what? The big old man Li brother is just a side branch, even if their niece is now the sect leader, so what? Their relationship with Li Shu is much closer than theirs.
Li Qianqian didn't expect her to think of this.
"I'll tell my cousin when I get back. ”
"Hmm. ”
In the palace of the Northern Jin Dynasty, because the empress fell ill, there was no banquet to entertain the officials and their wives this year.
With the first prince here, the other princes had no chance to get close to the empress, let alone those faces, but there was one exception, and that was the senior brother of Lady Yao.
He entered the palace with Lady Yao, even if the first prince wanted to stop him, he couldn't stop it, Lady Yao was the empress's henchman, if the first princess targeted her, he was afraid that the sick queen would be suspicious of herself, for the sake of the future of the eldest son, the first prince could only endure.
Princess Zhenyang is much more direct.
She took her husband and son into the palace, and when she saw Lady Yao and her senior brother in the dormitory, she couldn't help but smile.
"Mother Emperor, Lady Yao is not too young, since she has brought the man to you to see, you might as well be generous and give them a marriage directly, right?
The empress looked at the couple in front of her, and she couldn't tell how she felt.
Female Officer Yao glanced at Princess Zhenyang lightly, did not speak, and the man did not speak, just stood quietly beside Female Officer Yao.
The first prince wanted to say something, but when the words came to his mouth, he realized that it seemed that it was inappropriate to say anything, so he simply closed his mouth and did not express any opinion.
The eldest prince and his wife stood side by side, the eldest prince bowed his head and said nothing, as if he didn't care about the matter, and the eldest prince and princess looked at Princess Zhenyue, signaling her to take good care of her daughter and stop letting her get into trouble.
Princess Zhenyue understood, and pulled Yan Shan tightly with her right hand, not letting her restless daughter cause trouble again, Yan Shan wanted to say something, but thinking that she had annoyed the imperial grandmother, she was going to marry far away to Dongqi in the near future, and she still wanted to take more benefits from the empress, even if it was to give her a few more people, and when she went to Dongqi, she would not worry about being bullied without anyone to help.
The empress was half-leaning on the dragon bed, looking at it, everyone's minds were in full view, and it took a long time before she said weakly, "I remember that your mother is not in good health?"
"Yes. ”
"Well, the purpose. "The empress bowed, after saying the word "will", a eunuch brought a table and chair over, polished the ink, and the leading eunuch took a pen and dipped it in ink, and then looked at the people in the room.
I don't want the empress to say at this time, "This is to marry her, how can she be asked to make up her own will!"
Only then did the waiting eunuch know that she was going to give a marriage to Lady Yao, which of course couldn't make her write on her own.
So he looked around the room again, and when the eldest prince was about to volunteer to come out to draft the decree, he saw Han Yuma taking the lead, "Your Majesty, I don't know if it can be written by the younger son-in-law?"
The empress raised her eyes and looked at him for a long time, the handsome and still a little young man back then, has now grown into a mature man who is as gentle as jade, when his daughter insisted on marrying him, she was so angry that she took a sword to kill him, what did he say at that time?
"If killing me can make Your Majesty happy, then you can do it! But after I die, please comfort the princess and don't let her be too sad because of my death." ”
"My own daughter, I naturally take good care of her. ”
"Yes. He smiled and closed his eyes calmly, looking like he was waiting to fall.
The Empress looked away, "Is your word complete?"
"It's not like you haven't seen the word "horse", and asked. "Princess Zhenyang is looking at her husband's heart, and she has not changed since she first met.
Even though her daughter can already be a grandmother, she still looks at her son-in-law like this, which makes the empress feel quite uncomfortable.
"Then let's draw up the order!"
Han Juma quickly prepared the will to give marriage, showed it to the empress, and after getting the empress's approval, he prepared to issue the decree.
Yao's sister and sister were going home to receive the order, and they both thanked the queen and left.
Princess Zhenyang took the empress's hand and told her how Han Yuma usually practiced calligraphy, as well as some trivial matters in daily life.
The first prince was bored with this, and just as he came over and wanted to speak, Princess Zhenyang said, "The mother queen is tired! ”
"You talk a lot. ”
The empress pointed to her daughter's forehead and said angrily, but she didn't refute her, she followed her wishes, lay down and rested, and when the first prince came over, Princess Zhenyang retreated and asked the first prince to cover the quilt for the empress.
"Okay, you're all here, I can't rest, let's all go down!"
Princess Zhenyang pulled her husband, said goodbye to the empress, and smiled and made an appointment with the empress to come to the New Year.
"Know, know, remember your big red envelope!" the empress waved at her and watched them walk away before closing her eyes.
Princess Zhenyue took her daughter to the queen's bed, and when she saw that the queen had closed her eyes, she couldn't help but be a little disappointed, she also hoped that her mother could change her mind and let Yan Shan not have to go to Dongqi!
"The Mother ......"
The first prince sat on the edge of the bed, looking at his daughter's eyes full of disappointment, and his heart was not uncomfortable, his granddaughter was going to marry far away, and he was also very distressed, but what could he do? Who told her to do evil? Who is to blame?
learned from the eldest son that his granddaughter suddenly made a mistake, which was instigated by the Yan family girls in the Hou Mansion, so he waited to teach those women a lesson.
The first husband had already ordered someone to clean up those stinky girls, but when he learned that his daughter was directly involved in their marriage, he stopped and beat them, which was too cheap for them.
When they become relatives, they will slowly clean them up, they are calculating that Yan Shan will marry far away, isn't it just to be able to get the protection of Princess Zhenyue?
Their husbands and in-laws all begged to marry them in order to be able to cling to Princess Zhenyue, if they knew that they had completely offended Princess Zhenyue, would they still be good to them?
"You guys go back first, wait until Your Majesty is better, and then talk about it!"
If you want to persuade the empress to change her mind, she has to mention it again after someone recovers, otherwise if she makes her popular, Yan Shan will only have the share of marrying far away!
Princess Zhenyue understood this reason, so she didn't say anything more at the moment, and pulled her daughter out of the palace.
When the evening comes, the sky is lit up with colorful fireworks, and everything is renewed!
Li Shu didn't let Li Qianqian stay longer, stared at them and drank sweet soup, and let them go back to their rooms to sleep.
Li Qianqian had no objection, but Lan Tang wanted to stay more to watch the fireworks, so he pulled Li Qianqian and bargained with Lan Hai.
"Walked away. Li Qianqian dragged her away, instead of arguing with the adults here, it was better to follow their wishes, and after leaving, they were busy with their own affairs, wouldn't they be free?
It's so stupid, what are you arguing with adults with your neck!
"You're stupid!" Lan Tang had to go back to fight, and Li Qianqian had to let her go.
When I walked out of the flower hall, I saw Liu Er hurriedly catching up.
"What's wrong?"
"The empress has given Lady Yao and her brother a marriage. ”
Li Qianqian was slightly stunned, looking at Liu Er and not speaking, Lady Yao's senior brother is the face of the empress, although everyone didn't say it explicitly, but she still understands.
Thinking that she was frightened, Liu Er was secretly annoyed, and when she didn't know what to say, Li Qianqian asked, "How could the empress think of marrying the two of them?"
Liu Er told her what happened, "I didn't expect that it would be Princess Zhenyang's mouth, and the first prince must hate her so much."
"That's for sure. Liu Er couldn't help but worry about Female Officer Yao.
"Don't worry about her, she's not that fragile, and Princess Zhenyang should have a plan to say this at that time. ”
What are you going to do?, Liu Er's eyes said.
"She wants to win over Lady Yao. Li Qianqian said that Princess Zhenyang and the eldest prince are not in agreement, once the eldest prince ascends the throne, she will not have a good life, for the sake of her children and grandchildren, she is bound to fight.
Li Qianqian hopes that she can succeed, although it seems that there is little hope, after all, she has retired from the army for so many years, and the eldest prince has the support of the first prince, and it is indeed not a simple matter to take the throne from them.
