Chapter 340: Fulfillment
Zhao Mo decided to fulfill the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family.
This aunt has now made Zhao Li dizzy, as long as the step-concubine of the King of Liao still loves her son, and does not plan to replace the younger son with a disabled leg, or risk having another son to cultivate at an age when she can be a grandmother, then there is only a concession. The future of this battle is difficult to say, and at present, most of it is the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family who has the upper hand who has pinched Zhao Li. Since she is destined to marry into the Liao Palace, why doesn't Zhao Mo try to be a good person?
She became the second daughter-in-law of the Liao Palace, and she was naturally stronger than any other official eunuch daughter from a powerful family. The current situation of the Wang family is destined to make her unable to bring practical benefits to Zhao Li. And even if the Wang family still doesn't give up, they want to make a comeback with this daughter's remarriage partner-what can they help the Liao Wangfu, which is already in turmoil? It's just the personal glory and wealth of the second young lady of the Liao Wangfu in the future.
Zhao Mo went to the East Palace. This kind of thing, he is not easy to do, and he needs to find help from the palace.
The crown princess Tang was pleased to hear the news that the second son of the Liao prince had a sweetheart. The step-concubine of the Liao King is really annoying, she has been pestering the crown princess's mother, Madame Tang, for several months. Mrs. Tang is a dignified and elegant, well-informed lady, who has always been gentle and kind in front of people, but she was too annoyed by the step-concubine of the Liao King, and she couldn't help but get angry a few times at home, and she also complained to her daughter when she entered the palace.
The daughters of the Tang family are not worried about getting married, and they tend to find a son-in-law among the scholars and scribes, even if they want to marry the Wuxun family, they must also choose those families who have a clean family style and their children are willing to study - this is probably the lesson brought by Tang Shangshu's sister's mismarriage. Except for the crown princess, the daughters of the Tang family did not marry into the Zhao royal family. Especially in the past ten years, there is often gossip that the royal family may pass on heirs from the clan, and the Tang family, no matter which prince marries their daughter, is suspected of riding the wall. In order to show the Tang family's absolute loyalty to the prince, they have always avoided suspicion. Now that the crown prince's position is stable, there are rumors that he has succeeded the emperor and grandson. At this time, how could the Tang family marry their daughter into the palace of the nearby clan?
Not to mention Zhao Li, who has a bad reputation, he has also planned to become the royal heir. marrying his daughter to him, or filling the house, is not only too cheap, but also ruins the reputation of the Tang family.
The so-called statement that Zhao Li wants to marry and fill the house is not what the step-concubine of the Liao King is now preaching. When the couple first entered Beijing, in order to successfully marry the daughter of the Chen family, they claimed that they would marry Zhao Li's late fiancée Xiao Chen's tablet into the door as the original match, and then marry a daughter of the Chen family to fill the house. Later, the Chen family refused to marry, and this argument of filling the house was naturally abandoned. The step-concubine of the king of Liao asked the Tang family to marry the original partner. However, the previous rumor that he was marrying a daughter of the Chen family to fill the house has been widely spread, and everyone believes it to be true, so how can he follow the words of the step-concubine of the Liao king? Zhao Li's marriage this time is a step-family, and this has already formed a fixed impression in the minds of the public, and the Liao Wangfu cannot change it if he wants to.
Therefore, not to mention that the Tang family refused to marry, other official eunuchs with a bit of status couldn't pull this face - the Chen family was in the capital, except for a Chen Liangdi, which onion was it? His daughter was the original match, and everyone who remarried in the past had to be a head lower than her, and she was a concubine in front of her tablet, which was one level lower than Chen Liangdi, the prince's side room. Even if the father and brother are only low-grade petty officials of the sixth or seventh grade, the girls of the big family also have to have self-esteem. As for those who are not from big families, the step-concubines of the King of Liao can't look down on them.
Zhao Li's marriage was so difficult, and the step-concubine of the King of Liao could only knock the Tang family to death, which disturbed Mrs. Tang. The unwanted girls of the Tang family have been picked by the step-concubine of the King of Liao on various occasions, and they are even more ashamed. The crown princess Tang was very angry at the behavior of the step-concubine of the Liao king, but because of her identity, she wanted to maintain the image of the future mother of the country, and it was not good to openly reprimand an elder of the clan, but she had already held a grudge in her heart. Once she has the opportunity to teach the other party a lesson, she will never object.
Now, Zhao Mo gave her an excellent opportunity. This is what Zhao Li wants to ask for, except for marrying once, the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family has been divorced from others, and there is nothing to be picky about. Master Wang was not dismissed for his crimes, and the world still recognized his title of Shangshu, and the granddaughter of a dignified scholar and a former cabinet minister filled Zhao Li's house, so what was there to be picky about in the Liao Wangfu? Anyway, everyone was remarried, and no one should dislike anyone.
Of course, to find a better reason to meddle in this family matter, the crown princess Tang had to go to the princess to discuss. After all, Wang Concubine is the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family. The princess did not object, but because the Liao Wangfu was also a clan, she was afraid that the royal family's consistent tradition of marriage would arouse the suspicion of the royal family again. The crown princess didn't take it seriously: "It's okay, Zhao Li has always been estranged from the palace, what taboo can there be?" In fact, this is a hint that Zhao Li will not become the heir of the royal family anyway, and his children will not be qualified to enter the royal family, so there is nothing to worry about.
In the Liao Palace, only the prince has a fate with the royal family. But Zhao Li's mother and son have a bad relationship with the original partner, and they will only get farther and farther away from the center in the future, and they will not be able to become a climate.
Wang Concubine is actually a little worried that her nephew and granddaughter will marry into the Liao Palace, whether it is a discord between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future, or she will suffer from the Liao Palace, there is nothing to live, but she sent someone back to her parents' house to test the wishes of the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family, but the other party is very willing to marry this family. The days in my mother's house are already very sad, and it is impossible to find any good marriage if I marry others, so how sad can I be in the life of the Liao Wangfu? A lifetime of glory and wealth can always be guaranteed. Zhao Li deserves to be the son of the world, she doesn't care, she can handle this man, this is the most important thing. She has survived in the Zhang family, what is the Liao Wangfu? Zhao Li will not expect her to die. As for the step-concubine of the Liao Wang, that little bit of means is not enough for her from the Wang family.
The princess was speechless for a long time, but finally decided to fulfill her niece and granddaughter. She teamed up with the crown princess Tang and mentioned the marriage in front of the emperor, wanting to ask the emperor to call the shots.
The emperor has no good impression of the Wang family's long house now, but the second master of the king and his monarch and ministers have been together for decades, the second master of the king has no heirs, and the life of his wife and daughter is quite peaceful, but it is somewhat adversely affected by the loss of power of the Wang family. Thinking about the marriage of a prince and sister-in-law, it can't affect the overall situation, but it should be a signal to the outside world, saying that as long as the Wang family is honest, the emperor will not kill them all, which can be regarded as a grace to the second lord of the king, and a reward for the princess's loyalty to the royal family and the righteous destruction of relatives in the matter of King Ninghua.
The emperor summoned the king of Liao, mentioned Zhao Li's marriage, and bluntly said that he had heard the story of Zhao Li and the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family, and intended to fulfill it, and asked the king of Liao what he wanted?
What else can the King of Liao do? He is now fully focused on the possibility of Beirong's secret spies infiltrating Liaodong, and he has to bear the responsibility for dereliction of duty, and it is precisely when his heart is weak in front of the emperor. Besides, he has been worried about the marriage of his second son for a long time, and he is angry with the attitude of his second son, and he is also tired of his wife's crying. Since the emperor intends to fulfill Zhao Li, can he still say no? If he still has the heart to let his second son be the son, he cannot offend the emperor in other things, and marriage is just a trivial matter. Since the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family has a way to get the princess to intercede in front of the emperor and promote this marriage, it is enough to prove that the Wang family's rotten ship still has three catties of nails, and this family affair may not be lost. The orphan daughters of the Chen family are willing to marry, what is it to marry a remarried daughter of the Wang family?
There is the king of Liao who has responded to the family affairs in front of the emperor, and even if the concubine of the king of Liao has more dissatisfaction and unwillingness, it will be useless. Zhao Li began to prepare for his wedding with joy. After more than 20 years of singleness, he can finally marry a wife!
It's just that when hardships and dangers stand in his way, he firmly believes that he will marry his sweetheart. But once his wish was granted, he began to hesitate again, thinking to himself whether this was really what he wanted? Since the eldest granddaughter of the Wang family had a way to get the princess to intercede in front of the emperor and fulfill the relationship between the two, why didn't she first seek the position of the prince for him? Could it be that he was worried that he would become the prince of the world, and the difference between the identities of the two would be even greater, and it would be more difficult to get married?
Although the preparations for the wedding soon left Zhao Li with no time to think too much about what he didn't have, the doubts in his heart still left traces in his mind, and he hoped that at some point in the future, it would explode again. But for now, he's still busy marrying first. The concubine of the king of Liao wanted to take the opportunity of the marriage to let their family stay in the capital for more time, so that they could have more time to plan for Zhao Li's position as the son.
It's a pity that the Zongren Mansion didn't let go, and the elders in the clan didn't think it was necessary. The Wang family is willing to marry in Liaodong, and the step-concubine of the Liao King herself was married in Liaodong, and only after marriage did she take the opportunity to visit Zongmiao in Beijing to worship her birthday, so what reason did Zhao Li have to make an exception?
Zhao Shuo's remarriage was different, he came to Beijing to do things for the emperor and the court, and he had a job. Moreover, when he married his original partner, he also got married in Liaodong.
Everything was not going well, and the choice of daughter-in-law was not what she wanted, and the step-concubine of King Liao was extremely depressed. The weather is getting colder, and she doesn't know whether it is a real cold or a fake cold, saying that she is sick in bed, her husband and sons go to see her, and she has to babble and say a lot of dissatisfied things. Sometimes the king of Liao was worried that if these words reached the palace, would he immediately lose the title of prince? But he advised his wife not to say any more, the matter was a foregone conclusion, and it was useless to be angry again, so it was better to look forward. The step-concubine of the king of Liao was used to it smoothly in Liaodong, and she was hurt by his words, and she couldn't help but be angry, crying and scolding, and she only felt that her husband and son couldn't stand her.
King Liao was once again disappointed in his wife. He didn't understand how his once virtuous and considerate beloved wife had become what she is now, and his second son, who was once well-behaved and sensible, had also become incomprehensible to him. Sometimes he heard how the eldest grandson Zhao Mo was in front of the palace and what errands he did beautifully, and he couldn't help but think about whether he should have been a little nicer to his eldest son and eldest grandson in the first place? It was also his own bloodline, so why did he become an enemy? Until now, only the youngest son can still help him do some practical things, but the younger son has a bad temper and is lame again. There is no successor, where will the Liao Wangfu go in the future?
When the King of Liao was old, he began to think about some questions that he had never thought about before, and began to reflect on his past ruthlessness towards his eldest son and eldest grandson.
Although this kind of reflection and reflection is actually useless.
