Chapter 157: Different
Lin Zhixuan was surprised when she heard this: "This prince is also thirty years old now, how can there be no princess?"
Chu Nan said: "I heard Princess Shuhui say that our prince is a dedicated person, and he must find a favorite woman before he can marry him as a princess." ”
Lin Zhixuan raised her eyebrows, but she didn't believe Chu Nan's ridiculous words, how could he have the opportunity to meet the so-called "favorite woman" as a prince, and the family affairs of Wang Sun Guixuan were just the emperor's order and the combination of the family, and there were more power entanglements and more heavy helplessness than ordinary people's families.
Chu Nan's conjecture is untenable.
Xue An also smiled when she heard this: "What I know is not the case, in the third year of Yanping, after the prince returned to the dynasty after the great victory in the northwest, he once wrote to ask the emperor for marriage. ”
Chu Nan looked at her in surprise: "Ah? There is such a thing? Why don't I know? Then what? The emperor maybe? Who is the prince asking for?"
Xue An smiled and shook her head: "The emperor didn't allow it, but he didn't allow it, but he pressed down the fold." ”
"Pressed down?" Lu Yan was also puzzled.
Xue An nodded: "This matter can be regarded as a palace secret, few people know about it, and it is also because at that time my father was fighting with Prince Jing in the south and the north, and he had a very personal relationship, so he knew such a star." ”
Lin Zhixuan frowned and said: "Then what? A dignified prince, thirty years old and without a wife, he is such a high-ranking and hot, don't the Zongren Mansion and the Ministry of Rites know that the emperor is mentioned in a book?"
Xue An said: "The Zongren Mansion naturally mentioned it, but after the excerpt was suppressed by the emperor. The emperor once mentioned marriage again, but the prince politely refused, and later the ministers also mentioned this matter in a letter. Both the emperor and the prince were noncommittal. Over time, no one mentioned it anymore. The Ministry of Rites can't help it, after all, there are so many things in the court, and no one will be staring at whether a prince has a wife or not. ”
When Chu Nan heard them say this, he was also a little curious: "However, the prince not only has no wife, but also has no queen." Don't you care about this people's mansion?"
Lin Zhixuan was even more surprised: "No queen?"
Xue An nodded: "Yes, there is no queen, not only does she not have a son, but she also does not have a daughter." ”
Lin Zhixuan said: "Then doesn't the prince even have a side concubine now?"
Xue An smiled and said, "How is this possible. If this is the case, I am afraid that the Zongren Mansion can tolerate it, but the Queen Mother will not be able to tolerate it. Although the prince does not have a concubine, he now has four side concubines and four concubines. ”
Lu Yan was surprised: "So many." Then why don't you have any children yet?"
Chu Nan said: "I think it's because the prince is always fighting outside. I don't have time to take care of the backhouse. ”
Xue An shook his head, but he also said puzzledly: "That's not right, since the great victory of the jade seal of the Mongolian Khan captured in the twelfth year of Yanping, the prince and my father have handed over most of the military power in their hands to the Wuying Hou Xie family, and they rarely go out to fight." ”
"It's a strange thing. Lin Zhixuan muttered.
But in her previous life, Lin Zhixuan didn't know anything about it.
After all, in the previous life, when Lin Zhixuan knew that there was such a person in this world, he was already dead, and no matter how hard a person was alive. All these mysteries and doubts will come to naught with the death of this person, and no one will ever delve into them again.
Prince Jing Wei Mingxu died before the emperor died. That means there's no more than a few months. Lin Zhixuan vaguely remembered that at that time, it was said that Prince Jing was dying because of the recurrence of old injuries on his body during the war.
Lin Zhixuan suddenly looked at Chu Nan, listening to the meaning of her mouth, she admired this Prince Jing very much, could it be that in her previous life, it was because of Prince Jing's death that Chu Nan didn't want to remarry, and refused to come to the door this year, and then the emperor died, and she couldn't marry for three years, so she dragged Chu Nan all the way to Heqin?
Lin Zhixuan asked, "Why did the prince come to Jinling, why did he come to congratulate the ancestor on his birthday?"
Shouldn't a person who has lived for less than three months be in weak health and sick in bed at this time? How could he still come all the way from the capital to Jinling?
Chu Nan said: "Now that Marquis Wu Yinghou and the prince are fighting in the northwest, the prince was ordered by the emperor to come to Jiangnan to raise grain and grass. Now that he is on the boundary of Jinling, the ancestor has a big birthday, so he naturally doesn't dare not give him an invitation, and the prince will not give the ancestor this face, and he will definitely come to appreciate it. ”
Lin Zhixuan was surprised: "Why did the prince come to Jiangnan in person to raise grain and grass?"
Chu Nan said: "Because Prince Jing is now walking in the cabinet, assisting the household department, isn't it normal for him to handle the matter of collecting grain and grass?" In fact, the prince was originally in charge of the ministry, because in the fifteenth year of Yanping, Prince Ying committed some crime when he was fighting, the emperor was very angry, and wanted to order the beheading, Prince Jing and Prince De interceded for Prince Ying, and the emperor exempted Prince Ying from the death penalty, and only took his name as Prince Ying and demoted him to the county king. Prince Jing and Prince De were also implicated, Prince Jing was originally in charge of the Ministry of Officials and Households, and the emperor took back the Ministry of Officials from Prince Jing because of that incident, and also took back the Ministry of War in the hands of Prince De, and changed it to the Ministry of Rites. ”
Listening to Chu Nan's words, Lin Zhixuan's thoughts turned quickly, the twelfth prince Wei Mingji, the fourteenth prince Jing Wei Mingxu, and the fifteenth prince Wei Mingmu are the sons of the three concubines of the current queen mother. The current emperor is not from the Queen Mother, but the son of the late Concubine Zhuang.
Concubine Zhuang died early, when the emperor died, Prince Yi let the queen mother be martyred, it was the emperor who saved the queen mother's life, Wei Mingxu was fifteen years old at the time, Wei Mingmu was only fourteen years old, and I don't know if it was because of gratitude to the emperor for saving his mother.
However, in the fifteenth year of Yanping, the emperor degraded the lord and took power because of a so-called crime that Chu Nan couldn't explain......
Lin Zhixuan's mind was a little confused, she didn't know any of these things, or she only knew a little bit but didn't delve into it. Because after all, these people and these things have been done in the past when Lin Zhixuan was in power. But now, they are still really alive and well.
Lin Zhixuan's brows furrowed tightly, why did Chu Nan know so much about the previous dynasty, but she was so concerned about everything related to Prince Jing, which showed that her intentions were not a day or two.
Lin Zhixuan said in a deep voice: "Chu Nan, since this Prince Jing didn't have a concubine at the age of thirty, it is not so simple to think about his marriage, you must not be delusional and delay yourself again." ”
When Chu Nan heard Lin Zhixuan say this, he said proudly: "What does it mean to be delusional? Is it only allowed for men to be ambitious in all directions, and daughters can't even choose a better husband?"
Lin Zhixuan persuaded: "Prince Jing has been fighting abroad for so many years, and I don't know how many hidden diseases and old injuries there are on his body, and his body is sick, so he is not a long-lived ......."
Chu Nan was anxious when he heard Lin Zhixuan's words: "What nonsense are you talking about, what kind of sick body, the prince is in the prime of life, he is in the prime of life, who are you listening to nonsense? What did the prince use when he handed over the military power when he had old wounds, but it was just an excuse to shirk his old age with Xue'an's father!"
