Chapter Ninety-Nine: Return to the Great Sage Capital
The two lingered all night, gentle and delicate.
On the day of returning home, Mama combed the red fox into a chic bun and changed into a red gilt embroidered auspicious cloud peony with a special lock gauze skirt.
The gauze skirt is light and thin, but it is not transparent. Wear this material in this early summer season, and you will not feel stuffy or cold.
The breeze blows, and the skirt staggers, as if with a kind of fairy soft light and aura.
When the couple arrived at the adjacent courtyard, the meal had already begun to be arranged.
Seeing the newlyweds coming in lovers' clothes, everyone couldn't help but admire, it was indeed a match made in heaven. The temperament of this body is exactly the same.
"It's so beautiful, Xing'er, you're so suitable for this kind of clothes. Gu Xiao praised while gently stroking the red fox.
Seeing a group of noble girls surrounding the red fox, touch this, touch that, how does the red fox feel like in the TV series, the new daughter-in-law meets the seven aunts and eight aunts of her mother-in-law's family.
Mingyue, the new aunt, had already been welcomed into the house, and the ladies chatted and played with the red fox.
Soon, the meal at the door will be ready. At the dinner table, the second prince said that everyone will return to Beijing tomorrow. Asked the Red Fox couple if they wanted to go back together. After all, their marriage was not approved by the royal family. Moreover, it was at the time of the new funeral of the Great Sage Empress, the red fox ran away from marriage and remarried someone else, how to say that the red fox is a royal princess, this thing is too unruly.
In fact, Mingyue and Red Fox discussed this matter.
Because it is impossible for the two to escape from the world forever, so choose the right time to let the royal family accept the fact that they have become husband and wife.
Mingyue and Red Fox toasted to everyone, "We husband and wife know what kind of trouble our union will have. I didn't expect you to take the risk to come to our wedding, and we thank you as a couple. After the two of them finished speaking, they drank it all.
The second prince hurriedly waved his hand, "You two will see the outside like this, not to mention the lives of our people, all of them are saved by kindness." Let's just say benevolence, this is our sister. She got married, how could we not come. ”
"Yes, benevolence. ”
"Little sister, in fact, I think it is better for you and the eldest prince to do this matter as soon as possible. You think, now my father ignores the government and politics, and all things are handled by the four princes. After all, you are his sister, and if you think about it, he won't be too embarrassed for you. The fifth princess said sincerely.
"I agree with the idea of the five siblings. The main thing is our father's body, in case something happens, if you go back, I'm afraid that bad things will come out. ”
"The most important thing is that the Great Sage has taken care of it, and you can return to Da Zhou as soon as possible. You can't let my little sister follow you so namelessly. ”
The red fox looked at Mingyue next to her, and Mingyue said solemnly: "Everyone is right, since Xing'er is married to me, I naturally want to give her a name." On the great sage's side, I will also personally ask for forgiveness from the emperor. ”
Hearing Mingyue's words being so responsible, the family members of Red Fox are satisfied.
"In that case, let's set off together tomorrow. The second prince made a decision.
Great Zhou Palace
Because Situ Tian knew that Mingyue and the red fox were married, he couldn't wait to arrest this unfilial son and beat him immediately.
"Tell me to go down and bring the eldest prince back immediately, and if he dares to resist, he will tie people back to me. ”
Seeing the people retreat, Queen Shi Shiran sat down beside Situ Tian, "Your Majesty, it is his fault that Yue'er acted like this, but you can't be angry because of this."
This kid is also wild, and when he comes back, let's teach him well. ”
"Teach, how else do I teach?!" Situ Tian became more and more angry the more he said, "At his age, the child can make soy sauce, but he has never married." That time, at the blind date banquet you arranged, he also sat down casually and left. This finally got married, and he actually married a woman with a watery poplar flower. I've been so disappointed this month!"
Seeing that the emperor looked like he hated iron but not steel, the queen stroked the emperor's back to give him relief, and said tentatively: "Yue'er, this kid has had an idea since he was a child, and since he dares to marry that Qin Yexing, he has made up his mind from the heart." The matter has come to this point, the emperor might as well follow him, so as not to hurt the harmony of father and son. ”
"No, Yue'er's wife must be from a famous family and has a clean reputation. I can't accommodate him just because he likes it, and let him marry a scourge who has a relationship with so many men. The emperor tilted his head and said solemnly to the queen: "Yue'er's family affairs, you can prepare it now, and when he comes back, he will get married immediately." When the time comes, when the jade butterfly is on and the ceremony is completed, he will be helpless. ”
The queen was a little embarrassed: "But Yue'er's temperament is only afraid of ......"
"You don't have to worry about that, I have my own way. All you have to do is get everything ready. ”
Seeing the emperor's confident appearance, the queen asked tentatively: "Your Majesty has a candidate for the eldest princess in your heart?"
Listening to the queen's question, the emperor nodded slightly with a satisfied smile on his face, "The concubine of the right prime minister is not only excellent in appearance, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also has a first-class good temperament." Marrying Yue'er, the two can not only chat, but also help Yue'er well in the future. ”
Hearing the emperor's words, the queen's face changed, but she quickly returned to normal.
"The emperor's vision has always been good, and I think Yue'er will be satisfied. ”
Coming out of the Palace of Heart Cultivation, the queen went straight to Situ Junwen's palace.
"The Queen Mother. ”
Seeing the queen coming from a distance, the second princess held her big belly and saluted with difficulty.
The grandmother beside the queen hurriedly helped the second princess up.
"Now that you are pregnant, this ceremony is forbidden. After the queen finished speaking, she looked around, "Where is Wen'er?"
The second princess replied respectfully: "During these days, the prince is not in the capital, and there are a lot of official affairs, and at this time, he is dealing with it in the study. ”
The queen nodded with satisfaction, "You can rest first, and the palace will take a look." ”
When I came to the study, I saw Situ Junwen frowning and looking at something.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Situ Junwen quickly put away the things on the table and got up to salute the queen.
"The Queen Mother. ”
The queen sat on the chair and saw that Situ Junwen's face was fine, and she felt a lot more relieved.
"I heard from the second princess, you have been dealing with official business, but what difficulties have you encountered?"
Situ Junwen sat opposite the queen, took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "Is there something wrong with my mother?"
Looking at the face of her son Junlang, although she was still deferential and polite, the queen always felt that Situ Junwen in front of her seemed to be another person.
The queen suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, put down the teacup in her hand, and said lovingly: "Wen'er, although you are in charge of a part of the army now, you are always weaker in terms of power in the court. The queen mother wants to suggest that your father and the emperor hand over the officials and the criminal department to you, what do you think?"
Situ Junwen looked at the queen strangely, "What does the queen mother mean?"
"Wen'er, your father is old, you have to learn to manage the affairs of the court, otherwise, how can you let your father trust the world to you in the future?"
Situ Junwen didn't expect the queen to suddenly say these words to him, his mind couldn't turn around, and he looked at the queen in front of him in a daze.
"The queen mother means....... But I didn't think about it at all. Besides, my son has an elder brother, and my eldest brother's ability is stronger than mine, this ...... No matter what, it's not my turn. The most important thing is that Erchen is only interested in leading troops, and has no intention of being in the court at all. ”
Hearing Situ Junwen's refusal, the queen's face immediately darkened. The tone was also stern, "As the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you should share the worries of your father, this is your responsibility!"
"Yes, the sons are responsible. Therefore, the sons are working hard to train the soldiers and manage the soldiers well. This is also for my father's worries. ”
Seeing that Situ Junwen was so unambitious, the queen said sadly: "Wen'er, do you know that your father is going to arrange for the right minister's concubine to marry Situ Mingyue." Do you know your father's intentions? Your father has high hopes for Situ Mingyue and wants to pass on the throne to him!"
The queen was so excited that she said this, but what Situ Junwen cared about was that the emperor wanted Mingyue to marry the daughter of the right minister.
Seeing Situ Junwen frowning and pondering, the queen thought that she had moved him, and her tone softened, "Wen'er, your father is old, if you don't fight anymore, I'm afraid that in this life, you can only succumb to Situ Mingyue." ”
Situ Junwen stabilized his mind and said indifferently: "Queen Mother, the sons and eldest brothers are the sons of you and your father, and whoever sits in that position is the same." What's more, the eldest brother is more capable than the son-in-law, and it is a good thing for the country and the people that he will inherit it. ”
Seeing that her son didn't eat oil and salt, the queen seemed to have a wave of anger in her heart.
"I tell you, if he inherits the throne in the future, by then, none of us mother and son will have a good life!" the queen said viciously, and left the study.
Situ Junwen has always known that the queen loves him, but he has always cared about Situ Mingyue. Why, the queen suddenly had such a great hostility towards Situ Mingyue. He really couldn't figure it out.
Great Wei State
"Shangguan Si Jin, how does this prince treat you, you should have a number in your heart, right?"
In the dark room, the suchman Si Jin, who was tied up and hung high, was covered in bloodstains, but his brain was very clear.
"The third prince, Weichen was also forced to be helpless. Wechen's daughter was held in the palace by the princess, and if Wechen didn't listen to the princess's arrangement, then Wechen's daughter would be in danger. Si Jin said, and cloudy old tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
Yuwen Tuo looked at Si Jin coldly, "Don't tell the truth yet." ”
Listening to the cold tone of the man sitting not far away, Si Jin thought about it, and only after a while did he continue: "Although Weichen's daughter is in the hands of the queen, thanks to the care of the second prince, she can live in peace. Moreover, the second prince also said that as long as Wechen tells him every move of the queen and you, he can help Wechen's daughter get out of the palace safely.
Third Prince, Wechen didn't reveal any of your news, you have to believe Wechen!"
"What have the queen and the second prince done lately?"
"Queen...... The queen has, and the queen has already asked for the king's consent, only to wait for the princess of the great sage to marry, and when the old and new emperors of the great sage alternate, they will send troops to the great sage. But ......" the lawsuit Si Jin suddenly shut up.
Seeing Yuwen Tuo's painful and angry appearance, Shangguan Si Jin said weakly: "As far as Wei Chen knows, the second prince and the eldest prince are not of the same mind, and it seems that you have a spy sent by the second prince by your side. ”
