191. Long live the thousand autumns

Zhao Yanheng and Li Fei got married, according to the relationship between the general family, the emperor and Li Yue became in-laws, and they can be regarded as family affairs, the emperor's family affairs, Jingzhao Mansion Yin did not dare to judge this marriage document, so he carefully wrote a fold and handed it over. This piece of music was handed up layer by layer, and finally pressed on the imperial case for many days, no wonder there was no movement at all.

Zhao Yanheng read all the reconsiderations written by Yin of Jingzhao Mansion and the votes of the cabinet, and the reconsideration of the officials of various ministries and halls, and said with a light smile: "This one was submitted by Yin of Jingzhao Mansion, and my mother-in-law Li wants to recruit Chen Jieqi, the captain of Yiwei, as her son-in-law, and ask the saint to cut it." ”

Regardless of how many words were written, Zhao Yanheng concisely summarized the content of the fold in one or two sentences, and then mentioned the views of the ministers on this matter: "Those who agree and oppose are half and half." Those who agree with it said that at the beginning, Xuan Guogong and Li were reconciled and separated, and they were happy in their lives, and they did not interfere with remarriage; in the midst of opposition, they fiercely opposed Li and scolded Li for being a woman of lust, and also wrapped up the face of their sons, saying that their sons had such a mother-in-law, which was really an obstacle to respect. ”

The people around him unintentionally mentioned it, and the emperor delayed and slacked work again, and the emperor only knew about it now. The old emperor, who was about to fall asleep when he heard this, perked up his spirits and said, "Li?"

Li is a big surname, there are many people with the surname Li, there are several concubines surnamed Li in the emperor's harem, and there are many women surnamed Li among the nobles of the clan. In the consciousness of a man, a woman has only one surname, and she has to know who her father, husband, and son are in order to have an impression of this woman. However, Li Yue is special, after twenty years, the emperor still has the impression of this person in his mind, she is beautiful and tough, a pair of eyes look forward to Shenfei, a light bow, and there is no false hair within a hundred steps.

This is the emperor's impression of Li Yue herself, so many years have passed, it can be seen how deep the impression was back then.

The emperor was like a nostalgic old man, or like an elder with a somewhat shallow relationship, and said: "She and Zhu Qinhe have been separated for so many years and have not married twice, what is wrong now, a captain of Yiwei, can she still compete with Xuanguo Gong?"

With Li Yue's arrogant temperament, an idle man is not worthy of her. Even the emperor thinks so about this.

Zhao Yanheng cautiously observed the emperor's reaction and said, "I think, it is impossible for Xuan Guogong to be a son-in-law, and Chen Jieqi, the captain of Yiwei, can." This is the reason why the two can be compared together, and Xuan Guogong can't compare to others. ”

"Oh......"

The emperor pulled the aftermath for a long time. The emperor's perception in this regard is very traditional, good men are not rich, and most of the men who can give up their life's fame and become rich are soft bones. And the emperor's heart for Zhu Qin, in terms of the monarch and ministers, Zhu Qin is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, a confidant, even if Zhu Qin is now guarding his mother's filial piety, the emperor has also summoned Zhu Qin many times to ask about the military; as far as the selfishness of the monarch and ministers is concerned, the emperor is fifty-six, Zhu Qin is thirty-five, this age difference is just a generation, plus Zhu Qin has appeared in the emperor's sight since he was seven or eight years old, and Zhu Qin has served the king since he was a teenager, and his situation cannot be said to be the same as that of father and son, and it is almost the same as the elders and younger generations.

"Chen Jieqi is from the Chen royal family of Annan......"

Zhao Yanheng told Chen Jieqi's 27-year resume with mixed truths. The royal family of the Chen clan of Annan, this origin sounds loud, how fast a royal family reproduces, it has been suppressed by the imperial court, and the descendants of the down-and-out royal family cannot maintain a decent life of the royal family at all, and they have to work hard to make a living like ordinary people, so it is not uncommon for them to fall into the grass.

“…… This person is very skilled, and his majesty has some means, and he acts a little arrogantly. Zhao Yanheng nodded a little bit of Chen Jieqi's own advantages. After listening to this, the emperor said bluntly: "Chen Jieqi and his person, how does his appearance compare to Zhu Qin?"

When asked this, Zhao Yanheng smiled and said, "The Li family no longer values a man's fame and background, there is always something that is good." Chen Jieqi is eight years younger than Xuan Guogong, and if you want to talk about her appearance, she is also beautiful. ”

To describe a man as beautiful is a bit contemptuous. However, picking a son-in-law is the same as picking a daughter-in-law, saying that it is to pick from the chastity and skill, you can find a beautiful one, who doesn't want a beautiful one, women also love to be pretty, especially if they are beautiful, most of them like handsome.

The emperor roughly sorted out these personnel, looked at Zhao Yanheng and said, "What do you mean?"

Zhao Yanheng said slowly: "A son-in-law is not qualified to be the father-in-law of this king!"

"Cramped!"

If Chen Jieqi doesn't marry Li Yue, he has nothing to do with Zhao Yanheng; if Chen Jieqi marries Li Yue as a son-in-law, he won't get Zhao Yanheng's approval, and he still doesn't want to get cheap in front of Zhao Yanheng. The emperor leaned on the big pillow, not accurate, nor uncertain, and said, "Let's look at the next book." ”

At this time, Zhao Yanheng carefully handed over the letter written by Li Yuezao, and said with a smile: "This letter was handed over to me on May 12, and I have been keeping it, just waiting for my father to ask and take it out, Chen Jieqi is nothing." Li, it's always my mother-in-law, please take a look at her words. ”

What kind of identity and courage should be required to write a letter to the emperor? Li Yue's courage is like a tiger, identity, if it weren't for the daughter who worked hard to raise her to marry King Xiang, Li Yue's second marriage or son-in-law would not be so much trouble, so Li Yue should have borrowed Zhao Yanheng's hand.

The seal of the letter was still intact, and the emperor took the letter and tore it open immediately.

Zhao Yanheng retreated to his small table, picked up another book and looked at it, but his eyes glanced at the emperor's reaction to reading the letter from time to time.

Li Yue once said to her daughter that when she was in her mother's house, she had written a fold for her father, and when she was at her husband's house, she also wrote a fold for her husband. Li Fei didn't understand the deep meaning, and now that the emperor saw Li Yue's handwriting again, he knew what Li Yue meant.

Li Yue, she has the ambition of a man, the ambition of holding power.

However, when the dynasty did not allow women to take the imperial examination and did not let women become officials, what would those ambitious women do?

Relying on the background of the eunuch's family background, he assisted his father and brother, assisted the husband, and governed his son. Women can only wield power indirectly with men. Li Yue got what she wanted at this point, her father Li Tai and her husband Zhu Qin all loved her and spoiled her, and that kind of favor could be taken out of the official seal for her to touch.

After Li Tai was executed, why couldn't the emperor allow Li Yue to continue to be the Duchess of Xuanguo?

A woman who is so ambitious, if she endures humiliation and burdens, and touches the military power through her high-ranking and powerful husband, she may encounter it, and even her ambitions, the emperor will not be able to tolerate it.

Therefore, Zhu Qin and Li Yue must reconcile.

Letting Li Yue out of Beijing has already let her live, that is the emperor eighteen years ago, the greatest tolerance!

In the letter, Li Yue used respectful and bold words to confess her heart very well. If a man is not clean, do not put him on the side of money and tempt him to steal, and if a woman has an ambition for power in her heart, she must cut off the means by which she can touch.

recruited a son-in-law, and since then her husband has no chance of fame, for Li Yue, it is her automatically and consciously suppressing her ambition.

In the long run, in the letter, Li Yue did not shy away from mentioning that no one dared to mention it to the emperor in the harem, and Li Yue said what people dare not say.

She said in the letter that after the emperor lived for a long time, if King Jing succeeded to the throne, the line of King Xiang and the lineage of his relatives would always be suppressed. If King Xiang succeeds to the throne, she has to be afraid of the disaster of her relatives, she always recruits a son-in-law and her reputation is in the way, without a good reputation, without a husband who is outstanding, and there is no room for her ambitions.

In short, she recruited a son-in-law, what is bad is her reputation, it is beneficial to the country and the family, and the emperor is happy to do it?

After reading Li Yue's letter, the emperor used his fingers hard and grabbed the two pieces of paper into a ball. The content of this letter is a secret message between two people, and no one can know.

Zhao Yanheng watched the emperor's reaction several times in a row, and the emperor was already half-lying in the throne, with thick pillows on both sides and said, "What will you say about the next recital?"

"Oh!" Zhao Yanheng lowered his eyes and said: "This is the prediction of the drought situation in Shaanxi by Qin Deyi, the political envoy of Shaanxi, a total of 500,000 hectares of fields affected by drought in Shaanxi, more than half of them ......."

Zhao Yanheng read the third part, the emperor sat on the throne with pillows piled high, and the person was already asleep. Zhao Yanheng naturally paused and quietly retreated, letting the emperor rest in peace. The small table case on which he handles political affairs does not need to be sorted out, and it remains as interrupted. The folds that I have seen are placed on the left, those that I have not seen are placed on the right, and the folds that I am reading are spread out in the middle.

The emperor woke up after taking a nap for two moments. He was deeply affected by the pain of bone injury, this seriously injured shoulder, moved pain, after falling asleep to maintain a position for a long time without moving, it was even worse, first he was taken off his arm like he had no consciousness, he couldn't move without consciousness, he had to reach out to help the emperor move his body, this movement, like the bones were disassembled and then put back together a little bit, the perception is back, the pain is also back, the stinging pain is in the bones.

suffered a wave of pain like this, and the emperor's spirit after taking a nap was a little better, and everything in front of him was what he looked like before he fell asleep. The emperor first saw the crumpled letter, and asked Feng Chengen to bring the incense burner, and he personally threw the paper into the incense burner, watching the flame finally burn to ashes.

Next, the emperor went to Gongfang, came out with clean hands and drank the leopard tendon soup sent by Concubine De, and looked at the small table table under the right.

The emperor's hand pointed to the stack of folds that had been processed on the left.

Feng Chengen's back tightened, and he carried the stack of folds handled by King Xiang to the emperor.

At this time, the emperor was in good spirits, and after picking a few of them and looking at them carefully, he saw that Zhao Yanheng was right every time, and he was not biased towards the content of the statement, and his old face showed a little comfort: "The seventh is quite sensible!"
