Lanling Chapter 001: Xie Zhiyuan, please give marriage
In September of the second year of Chang'an, Emperor Xuanwu issued an edict to move the capital to Changping, and three months later, the capital of Dayan changed from the capital to Changping.
After two years of rectification and governance, Dayan's situation has slowly come out of the previous chaos, has almost returned to the pre-war appearance, the new system is also improving, everything is orderly and thriving, and Emperor Xuanwu is eloquent, under his governance, Dayan has a posture towards the prosperous era, and all this, inseparable from the full cooperation of the upper and lower subjects, just after the relocation of the capital Changping is approaching, Emperor Xuanwu issued an edict, amnesty to reduce taxes in the world, and ordered the princely generals stationed in various places to enter Beijing to resume their lives, and then talk about meritorious rewards.
So these days, Changping City is very lively, every day there are princely generals from all over the country into Beijing, but because some time ago in many places in the north of the heavy snow, there was a snow disaster, and the disaster is very serious, countless casualties, Emperor Xuanwu is dealing with this matter, a few days have been not empty to summon these people, only let the Ministry of Rites Shangshu Gu Chong arrange them all to live in the newly built Xianliang Hall for foreign officials to stay temporarily, until today, only to make time to summon.
Just like when she was in Yudu, as the eldest princess, Xiao Yunke not only has her own princess mansion outside the palace, but also has her own bedroom in the palace, she usually lives in the palace to accompany the queen mother and Concubine Wen Gui, and helps take care of several children by the way.
After the establishment of the new dynasty, in order to let the people of the world get out of the haze of the previous war as soon as possible, Emperor Xuanwu almost handled government affairs day and night, and kept rectifying and reforming, and as the elder brother of Emperor Xuanwu, Xiao Yike was entrusted with an important task, inspecting the people's situation in various places on behalf of the monarch and rectifying military affairs, and although Su Luran married into the royal family for several years, because Xiao Yike's infinite spoiling was as unrestrained, his playful temperament did not change at all, and he couldn't stay in Beijing and followed, their three children were naturally raised in the palace, raised and cared for by the queen mother and the queen, and Xiao Yunke liked children, so he also lived in the palace to help take care of them。
Xiao Yike has a total of three children, namely two daughters and one son, the eldest daughter Xiao Qingran is eight years old and is named the lord of Shaoning, the second son Xiao Ziling is six years old, and the youngest daughter Xiao Qingyu is four years old and is named the lord of Xuanning.
Because she just moved the capital to Changping, she played in this new palace for a while, Xiao Qingran was bored, and she was very curious about the outside of the palace, so she wanted to go out of the palace to play, and the noise was so loud that everyone else didn't have time to take her out of the palace to play, only Xiao Yunke had this idle time, and then the youngest Xiao Qingwei was the most sticky to Xiao Yunke, Xiao Yunke took the two sisters out of the palace to play outside the city for a few days, and visited the major mansions, and they were almost done shopping in Changping City。
Changqing Hall is the queen mother's bedroom, is the construction of the Ziling Palace, Xiao Yiheng personally instructed the officials to build the palace to support the queen mother, gorgeous, delicate and majestic, in this huge Ziling Palace is one of the best, no less than the emperor and queen's bedroom Qingluan Palace.
The queen mother's body has been carefully conditioned by Hua Wuxin for half a year, and it has been much better, but it is difficult to cure the old disease for many years, and it is inevitable that there will be some discomfort after winter, and it is necessary to take medicinal diet every day to recuperate, and be careful to avoid contracting the wind and cold, it is now December, although Changping City is far less severe than the cold of Xudu, but it is still very cold, so the queen mother can not go out of the Changqing Palace, every day the princesses of all the palaces are in turn to enter the palace to accompany the queen mother, and the queen will accompany the queen mother in her spare time, and Concubine Wengui is no exception, Xiao Yunke took the two little girls back to the Changqing Palace, and the queen was also there, talking with the queen mother。
The two children chattered in front of the Queen Mother about the things outside the palace in the past few days, which made the Queen Mother laugh continuously, and her complexion was much better.
Well, Xiao Ziling is six years old, but he has already been enlightened and enrolled, and he is personally taught by the Confucian masters personally assigned by Xiao Yiheng, although the little guy is young, but like his father, he is young and old, and he looks like he is not smiling all day long when he is only six years old, not like his sister and sister who love to play, but is dedicated to learning.
After the two children left, the queen said to Xiao Yunke with a smile: "By the way, two days ago, His Majesty told me that the princess's birthday is coming, and said that he would hold a palace banquet for the princess in the Jiuhua Palace to celebrate, and told me to prepare well, but I am still planning for the owner's birthday for the first time, I don't know if the princess has any special requirements?"
Xiao Yunke was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and was a little dumbfounded: "My birthday?"
Seeing her react like this, the queen was a little amused: "Yes, has the princess forgotten? Today is already twelve, and five days will be your birthday!"
Lanling touched his nose a little embarrassed, and said helplessly: "If the imperial sister-in-law doesn't say it, I forgot it!"
Queen: "......"
When the Queen Mother on the side heard this, she couldn't help but be angry and said: "You girl, you don't remember such an important day as your birthday, it's really ......"
Xiao Yunke smiled faintly, with a little bitterness between her eyebrows: "It's not that the Queen Mother doesn't know, I am so old and rarely have a birthday, and I haven't had a birthday for more than ten years, how can I still remember it?"
The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother suddenly stopped talking.
Xiao Yunke's birthday is the death day of her mother's concubine, so she actually rarely celebrates her birthday, and when Xiao Zhenglin was still alive, she was the master to hold a birthday banquet for her, because she and Xiao Tianhuang's birthdays were only one day apart, and they all did it together, but because their birthdays had different meanings, they didn't do it every year, and then they never did it again because of various things.
Xiao Yunke smiled lightly and refused: "But forget about this matter, I understand the emperor's intentions, it's just that I don't want to celebrate my birthday, and I don't like to be lively, and I don't like to be too extravagant, instead of holding these unnecessary birthday banquets, it is better to save this silver for disaster relief!"
The queen smiled: "Your Majesty knows that you will refuse, so I am not asking for your opinion, but let me tell you, in fact, he has already instructed the people of the Central Provincial Bureau to prepare two days ago, and now he is preparing, so he can't withdraw the edict at this time, right?"
Xiao Yunke stopped speaking for a while, pursed her lips slightly, and her face was a little solemn.
When the queen saw her like this again, she sighed helplessly: " Your Majesty understands the princess's thoughts, but he said it, the deceased is gone, the living are like this, you have been unable to let go of the death of the imperial aunt back then, and always don't like to celebrate the birthday, these are all filial piety is understandable, but now thirty years have passed, you are already thirty years old, you can't remember these unhappy things for the rest of your life to torture yourself, the imperial aunt has a spirit in the sky and doesn't want you to be like this, Your Majesty celebrates your birthday, in fact, the most important thing is to hope that you can forget these sad past after this birthday!"
Xiao Yunke smiled lightly: "Since Your Majesty has ordered you to prepare, then follow Your Majesty's will, it just so happened that the capital was moved to Changping and it has not been able to celebrate properly, and taking this opportunity to celebrate can be regarded as making the best use of everything!"
The queen was silent for a moment before asking, "What does the princess want?"
Xiao Yunke shook his head: "No, the queen just looks at the decision, I can do it!"
The queen nodded.
The Queen Mother said with some regret at this time: "Speaking of which, the day before Ke'er's birthday is also the birthday of Wuwu and Huang'er, but those two girls are not here, otherwise it will be more lively!"
The queen smiled: "What the queen mother said is that it's a pity that the phoenix is about to give birth, and the worry-free letter said that she will not come back this year with the phoenix, and she will come back together next year!"
The Queen Mother nodded, still with some regret on her face.
Xiao Yunke said with some expectation: "I'm a little curious, I don't know if Sister A's child is a boy or a girl, looks like Sister A or like a brother-in-law?"
Speaking of children, Xiao Yunke was obviously interested.
The Queen Mother said: "These will be known when they are born, in my opinion, boys and girls are good, no matter who they are, Tianhuang and Shen Shen are good-looking, and the appearance of the children will not be bad!"
Xiao Yunke nodded: "That's right!"
The Queen Mother suddenly remembered to be a demon, looked at Xiao Yunke, and said with a serious face: "Now that the Tilting Phoenix is complete, Ke'er, you are the only one left!"
"Uh......" Xiao Yunke blinked, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he was a little helpless: "Why did it happen to me again?"
The Queen Mother said angrily: "It's really not that you have always refused to marry? You see that you are not young, you will be thirty in a few days, but you always refuse to get married, and now your sister is married and has children, and you are the only one left!"
Xiao Yunke looked at his nose and nose and heart, and stopped talking.
Speaking of this, the queen remembered a stubble, and said a little helplessly and funny: "Speaking of this, I think of one thing, isn't Ling'er's girl sixteen?" It's time to get married, I talked to her about marriage earlier, the girl kept saying that Aunt Lanling is not married yet, and she is not married, and when Aunt Lanling's marriage is solved, she will talk about her, no matter how she is persuaded to listen, for fear that Your Majesty and I will choose a husband for her, regardless of the fact that I followed the head of the Hua family out to travel the rivers and lakes, and now I haven't come back, and I don't know if I will come back after a while!"
Hearing this, the Queen Mother looked at Xiao Yunke and said angrily: "Look, isn't this just a big one that is not good to teach a bad one?"
Xiao Yunke didn't want to talk even more.
The queen was busy, and she was busy preparing for the palace banquet these days, so she didn't stay long before leaving.
After the queen left, the queen mother pulled Xiao Yunke to sit in front of her, looked at Xiao Yunke, her eyes were loving and helpless, and sighed: "Lanling, you honestly tell the mourning family, why do you always refuse to get married?"
Xiao Yunke hung his head and said softly: "Queen Mother, it's good for me to be alone!"
When the Queen Mother heard this, she couldn't help but scold, her brows furrowed and she said in a deep voice: "Nonsense, my daughter's family always has to get married, no matter how good it is to be alone, it is just a shadow, how can it be better than being accompanied by someone? What's more, you are still so young, you are still long in this life, how can you let me bear to let you be alone for a lifetime?" Wen Lan sighed when she talked to me about this matter before, she raised you to grow up, and now she has not seen you marry for a long time, and she feels uncomfortable, not to mention, if you go down like this, how can Your Majesty and I explain to the first emperor and your father, the princess, and your imperial grandmother? You should still remember that before your imperial uncle left, he always remembered your marriage, and now after so many years, you still refuse to marry, doesn't this make him die blindly?"
Xiao Yunke moved her lips and wanted to say something, but when the words came to her lips, looking at the Queen Mother's earnest and sad eyes, she couldn't say anything.
The Queen Mother hated the iron and steel: "You are like this, your brother is also like this, the brother and sister are the same stubborn, but your brother is better than you, he at least knows what he wants, and he has been refusing to get married is just waiting, and now Rong Xin's filial piety has arrived, he knows what to do, but what about you? You have no desire all day long, how can you get it if you go on like this? I'm afraid that one day you will see through the red dust and run to be a sister-in-law!"
Hearing this, the corners of Xiao Yunke's mouth twitched, and he hurriedly explained: "Queen Mother, I'm ...... I just don't like it, and I don't really want to be alone!"
As soon as the Queen Mother heard her words, she immediately lost her sorrow, came to her senses, and hurriedly asked: "Then tell me, what do you like?" As long as you say it, the mourning family will definitely let His Majesty and your brothers collect it for you!"
Xiao Yunke: "......"
This is...... Beauty pageant?
She didn't speak, and the Queen Mother was anxious: "You said it!"
Xiao Yunke looked at the sky a little speechlessly, and said with a sad face: "Queen Mother, how can this kind of thing be explained clearly......? I don't know what I like, but I have to look at it, right?"
The Queen Mother couldn't help but complain: "The premise of your eyesight is that you can get in touch with those men, but you live in seclusion all day long, and the few men you come into contact with are either the ones in the family who are married, or they are guards, who can you look at?"
Xiao Yunke was speechless.
The Queen Mother said with a straight face: "I don't care so much, you think about what you like, tell me in a few days, I will let Your Majesty and a few of your brothers find it for you, there are so many men in the world, I don't believe you don't like it!"
Xiao Yunke was wailing in his heart.
In the past few years, she has been living in the days of being urged to marry, this year she went to Xihan, and caught up with the relocation of the capital, and finally stopped, it has only been less than a year, and now she is idle and has started again......
When Xiao Yunke was listening to the words of the Empress Dowager Han, Xiao Yiheng came.
Xiao Yiheng has been very busy recently, and he has not come to Changqing Hall for several days to ask for peace, and he asked the queen to take care of the queen mother on his behalf.
After saluting, Xiao Yiheng sat down.
As soon as he sat down, the Queen Mother asked, "Why did Your Majesty come here at this time?"
Xiao Yiheng nodded: "There is indeed something, and it is related to Ke'er!"
Saying this, the Queen Mother and Xiao Yunke were stunned for a moment, and Xiao Yunke looked at Xiao Yiheng with some doubts: "It has something to do with me?"
"Hmm!"
Xiao Yunke saw Xiao Yiheng's serious face, and hurriedly asked, "I don't know what Bixia said?"
Xiao Yiheng looked at Xiao Yunke with a serious face, and asked in a deep voice: "Ke'er, you tell me honestly, do you know Xie Zhiyuan?"
Xiao Yunke was a little confused: "Xie Zhiyuan, who is this?"
Xiao Yiheng frowned: "You don't know him?"
Xiao Yunke smiled and said helplessly: "Your Majesty is joking, this is the first time I have heard this name today, how can I know him? But who is he? Why did Your Majesty come to ask me if I know him?"
Xiao Yiheng said: "He is a member of the Xie family in the southwest, that is, the Xie family, the first family of the original Wei State, and also the uncle of the country, in the early years, he was named the general of the Yasukuni by the Emperor of Wei, and I named him the Marquis of Zhenxi to rectify the southwest area when I established the dynasty, and the imperial court reformed and rectified the original Wei territory so quickly, and he made great contributions, and he was among them when he entered the Hajj this time, and today I summoned him, and he asked me for marriage, and the person I asked for is you!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yunke was shocked.
