Lanling Chapter 006: Marriage and fiefdom dowry
The emperor was obviously very happy today, and Lang laughed and said: "I know that you don't lack anything, even if I give you all the treasury, you may not be able to see it, so I won't give these vulgar things, lest you say that I will send some vulgar things to perfunctory you!"
Xiao Yunke smiled dumbly, and said with a light smile: "Your Majesty said this, my sister is even more curious about what kind of rare gift it is!"
The emperor looked at Su Qi on the side, Su Qi understood, took two steps forward, and then, in front of everyone's eyes, took out one of the black holy edicts from the tray touched by the little eunuch behind him, and then opened it, and raised his voice in a solemn tone: "Zhenxi Hou Xie Zhiyuan received the order!"
As soon as this voice came out, the people in the hall were puzzled, didn't it mean that His Majesty was going to give the eldest princess a birthday gift? Damn, the eldest princess of Lanling accepted the decree, how could she read the edict but called the name of a person who couldn't be beaten with eight poles?
Moreover, which one is this town Xihou Xie Zhiyuan......
In the main hall, there are not many people who know Xie Zhiyuan, and not many have seen it, so as soon as Su Qi's voice came out, there were some people who knew Xie Zhiyuan, and everyone else was looking for it.
Until a man stood up on the seat in the middle and upper part of the right, everyone's eyes suddenly fell on him, and Xie Zhiyuan also walked out of the seat calmly under everyone's attention, walked to the center of the hall, and then walked a distance at night, lifted his robe, slowly knelt down, and waited for the edict to be read.
Su Qi cleared his throat, and then raised his voice to read the content of the edict, a few short sentences of the edict, and finished reading it in two clicks, but when the edict was finished, the faces of almost everyone in the hall changed.
The content of the edict is concise and concise, first, Xie Zhiyuan, the marquis of Zhenxi, was the Duke of Yueguo and the general of Zhenxi, leading 400,000 soldiers and horses in the southwest to guard the border.
Second, give marriage to Yue Guogong Xie Zhiyuan and Xiao Yunke, the eldest princess of Lanling, and get married on the same day!
The first is not surprised, this time Xiao Yiheng summoned these princely generals who were abroad to return to Beijing, which was meant to be rewarded, Xie Zhiyuan was originally the uncle of the military marquis of Wei, with great military achievements, and very prestigious, the Wei State destroyed the Wei Emperor abdicated, in addition to the general trend, it was he who promoted it, Wei Jing did not have much turmoil after the fall of the country, and he stabilized the overall situation, after the establishment of the Great Yan Dynasty, Xiao Yiheng rewarded the meritorious heroes, but because the war had just stopped at that time, the situation was unstable, and there were all kinds of small chaos in the world that needed to be suppressed and pacified, and many people were unable to go north to receive the reward, Xie Zhiyuan was one of them, and sent someone to send the edict of the marquis, Let him cooperate with the officials sent to reform and govern the southwest area, the southwest area quickly settled down with his assistance, he is a meritorious servant, and now it is natural for him to be crowned as the prince of the country and give military power, but it is too unexpected to marry the eldest princess of Lanling.
Who is Xiao Yunke, the daughter of the former King of Pingnan, the sister of the current King of Pingnan, the princess of the clan who was specially sealed by the former Emperor Lixian, she has been pampered since she was a child, and now His Majesty is a cousin and cousin with her, and she is also extremely fond of her, and now His Majesty's dearest sister Princess Zhen Guowei Yuan and the regent Yunyou are away from Beijing all the year round, and they are the eldest princess of Lanling with the highest prestige and the most respectful, even His Majesty's own daughter Princess Yuning is far inferior to her, let alone others.
And behind the eldest princess of Lanling, almost the most noble and powerful person in Dayan's identity, His Majesty and the Queen Mother will not talk about it, the eldest princess of Zhenguo Weiyuan and His Royal Highness the Prince Regent are her sisters and brothers-in-law, and several princes who hold heavy military power in the court, King Pingnan is his own brother, King Jin is also very fond of her, King Jingyang is His Majesty's most respected uncle, and also her uncle, even now the most trusted and relied on by His Majesty, and now controls the Ning Wangfu, which is now in control of millions of male soldiers in the south, and her friendship is also very good, it can be described as a family, not to mention that there are other large and small princely officials and her relationship, her influence can be imagined, which is slightly inferior to the eldest princess of Wei Yuan.
It's just that she has been married to her predecessor Fu Zhongling more than ten years ago, and after killing her husband on the night of the wedding, she has never married again, and she has been stumbling for more than ten years, she is lonely and cold, and has a history of murder, although countless people want to marry her so that she can rely on her, but few people dare to ask to marry, and the few who have returned because of the unsuccessful marriage attempt, over time, no one dares to beat her idea, she is okay if she doesn't get married, if she wants to marry, no matter who her husband is, will rise to the top of the boat and be very honorable, this Yue Guogong, and even the Xie family behind him, I am afraid that it will be quickly prosperous, and it will never be just a moment!
Xie Zhiyuan entered Beijing for the first time to meet him, so most people didn't know him, only the close ministers of the Son of Heaven and the civil and military officials knew him, and there were some princely generals who were edicted to Beijing like Xie Zhiyuan, and almost no one in the other mansions knew him, but whether they knew him or not, no one expected that the emperor would give him the eldest princess of Lanling to marry! When everyone was still in shock, Su Qi put away the edict in his hand, handed it to a little eunuch, and asked him to take it down to Xie Zhiyuan.
Immediately after, before Xie Zhiyuan got up, Su Qi took out twelve edicts from the tray and opened them.
He raised his voice and said, "The eldest princess of Lanling takes the order!"
Xiao Yunke raised his eyebrows, but he still got up and walked to Xie Zhiyuan's side, knelt down slowly, and waited for Su Qi to read the edict.
And the people in the hall were also waiting for Su Qi to read the edict with their necks strained, and they were all curious about the content of the edict.
As Su Qi raised his voice and read it, the content of the edict floated to the ears of everyone in the hall, and it also exploded.
There is not much content, only one.
Merge the thirty-one cities included in the four counties in the southwest into one county, change the name to Lanling County, and give the eldest princess of Lanling as a fief under her jurisdiction!
That is to say, the territory under the jurisdiction of Xie Zhiyuan's military power is all included in Xiao Yunke's name as a fief, and when they get married, that piece is directly the sole authority of the two of them, that is, like a small country, and Xiao Yunke is also the first person to be given a fief after the establishment of the Great Yan Dynasty, before that, although Xiao Yiheng sent many feudal officials and princely generals to govern various places and borders, but only let them garrison and take care of it, but did not give half a fief, all the princes only have military power and cannot be divided, I didn't expect Xiao Yiheng to give Xiao Yunke this honor!
In addition to the above few people in the hall, the others were all surprised, and even Xiao Yunke himself was taken aback.
Xiao Yunke was stunned and surprised, and immediately refused: "Please take back the imperial brother's life, the imperial brother's love for Lanling is comprehended, but I really dare not accept such a generous reward for Lanling!"
Xiao Yiheng said: "This is my birthday gift to you, and it is also a dowry!"
Xiao Yunke pursed his lips and said: "If it is a dowry, the imperial brother can give anything, gold, silver, wealth and rare treasures, but Lanling can't ask for such a vast fiefdom!"
Before the emperor could speak, the Queen Mother said with a serious face: "You child, since Your Majesty gave it to you, you will receive it, this is what you deserve, not to mention, this is not only Your Majesty's intention, but also your imperial uncle's wish before his death, and it is also the meaning of the mourning family and Concubine Wengui.
Xiao Yunke was a little moved: "The Queen Mother ......"
Concubine Wen Gui, who was under the Queen Mother, said: "Ke'er, be obedient, this is the dowry given to you by His Majesty, even if you accept it, you don't have to worry about anything else!"
Xiao Yunke's face moved slightly, he raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Yiheng above, seeing that he was looking at himself gently, and then looked at the eager care and encouragement of the relatives and elders around him, pursed his lips, folded his hands and slowly fell to the ground: "Sister, Brother Xie Huang is very loving!"
Then, slowly raising his head, Su Qi also walked down in person and handed over the edict to her.
At this time, Xiao Yiheng looked at the two of them and said cautiously and solemnly: "I, I hope that the two of you can live up to my expectations, be united forever, and grow old together!"
The two of them glanced at each other, and thanked each other again.
The news of Xiao Yunke's marriage and Xie Zhiyuan spread quickly after the palace banquet, and before the next day, it had spread to almost all corners of Changping City, and the next day, it was already known to everyone.
Naturally, everyone who heard it was shocked!
And Xie Zhiyuan, because he was given the marriage of the eldest princess of Lanling, his status rose, and the next day, the number of people who rushed to visit the Xianliang Pavilion was endless, but he didn't see any of them.
Xianliangguan originally lived in a number of people who were edicted to enter Beijing but did not have a mansion in Beijing or had not been given a mansion after entering the palace a few days ago, except for Xie Zhiyuan, the others were rewarded one after another in the first few days, and they moved to the mansion of the imperial gift, originally only Xie Zhiyuan was left alone, after the marriage was sealed, the mansion given to Xie Zhiyuan was also selected, just half an hour away from the palace, a large area of the mansion of the princely family was around, and the mansion adjacent to the Xie Mansion was the mansion of several marquis, Xiao Yiheng wanted to choose one close to the palace, but those close to the palace had already been given to a few close princely ministers and royal peopleAt that time, when the expansion was long, Xiao Yiheng ordered the construction of hundreds of large and small mansions to be gifted, although there are still many that have not yet been given, but in the end those big and good ones have the master, thousands of choices, and finally chose the current one is quite satisfied, although it is a little far away, but the pattern and area inside are not worse than those princes, and the emperor also asked the household department and the Ministry of Industry to add or change the courtyard scenery in the mansion depending on the situation, worthy of Xie Zhiyuan's identity as the prince of Yue and the princess of Lanling.
Xiao Yunke herself has a princess's mansion, and she chose a more remote one, and now she has only moved for a long time, so she hasn't lived for a few days, Xiao Yiheng originally planned to change her to one adjacent to Xie's mansion, and then get through together, but she refused for some reason.
