Chapter 540: Giving Her Father a Marriage?
"Back then, Cheng Ergongzi's eloquence was very good, I haven't seen it for more than ten years, Cheng Ergongzi is still the same talent and quickness, I heard that Cheng Ergongzi left my Daxing country, and became the prime minister of Xirui Kingdom, I heard about it, I deeply regret it, if the prime minister of my Daxing country is Cheng Ergongzi these years, it must be the blessing of the people of my Daxingguo.

Emperor Shengchang of the Great Xingguo looked at Qin Guangguang meaninglessly, and his eyes were deep and faint whirlpools that people couldn't see, not to mention that Qin Guangguang and Old Man Cheng were a little far away from him, and they couldn't see the holy will, even the eunuchs with a face were a little confused about what their emperor wanted to do.
However, the emperor will definitely not announce that the father and son of the Cheng family will enter the palace for no reason, not to mention that the emperor was also angry with the daughter of the second master of the Cheng family just now, how could these anger not be vented on the Cheng family?
"The emperor praised it falsely, I have a lot of talents to rejuvenate the country, and I don't know how many people have the ability to share worries for the emperor and do things for the people, and the courtiers are just a drop in the ocean."
Qin Guangguang did not have any humble behavior in front of Emperor Shengchang, and what he said was just a humble statement, and his attitude made the emperor more and more dissatisfied in his heart.
Looking at Old Man Cheng again, the old god was standing on the ground, not young, but he was standing straight, and his waist was not bent at all.
"What does the second son of the Cheng family mean is that the prime minister of Xirui Kingdom is just Erer, but a person with mediocre talents?"
Emperor Sheng Chang leaned back on the dragon chair behind him, looking at Qin Guangguang with a smile, and only he knew the calculation in his eyes.
Qin Guangguang naturally would not jump down to this trap dug by Emperor Shengchang, and said in a deep voice: "There are naturally many more talented people in the world than courtiers, but most talented people of knowledge do not like to get involved in officialdom. As for the talent of the courtiers, the courtiers will not think that the talent is mediocre, otherwise, the courtiers will not stand out among the many capable people, and they will be the prime minister of a country, but compared with those hermit masters, the courtiers still have many deficiencies. ”
"Hahaha, more than ten years have passed, Cheng Er Gongzi really did not disappoint me, even if he left me to rejuvenate the country, Cheng Er Gongzi is still a pillar of a country. It's just that now that Cheng Aiqing has left Xirui Country and returned to Daxing Kingdom, he must not leave again, right? Emperor Sheng Chang's words paused, glanced at Old Man Cheng, and continued: "After all, Grandpa Cheng is not young! ”
"What the emperor said is that my father is very old, and the courtiers should serve in front of him." Since he has returned to Daxingguo, he really has no intention of leaving, and there is no need to hide this from anyone.
However, what Emperor Sheng Chang said just now, Qin Guangguang did not think that he really appreciated his talent and wanted to make himself an official in the court.
The power of the Cheng family already made him jealous, how could he give him a chance to let the people of the Cheng family take more real power and make the power of the Cheng family stronger?
"Back then, the second son of Cheng and the eldest princess of my Daxing Kingdom had an excellent relationship, but they missed it for various reasons. When I heard that the second son of Cheng left Daxing Kingdom gloomily because he failed to marry the eldest princess, I didn't sigh in my heart, regretting that I didn't let you, a lover, become husband and wife.
I originally thought that you and the eldest princess had no fate as husband and wife in this life, and I never thought that last year, the eldest princess's concubine died of illness, and you just returned to Daxing Kingdom after the eldest princess kept filial piety for the concubine for a year. Come to think of it, Cheng Ergongzi has paid much attention to the eldest princess over the years, and now the eldest princess has died of illness for a year, and the eldest princess remarries is also in line with the rules of the ancestors, so I am willing to give the two of you a marriage and let you continue your relationship. ”
Whether it was Old Man Cheng or Qin Guangguang, they didn't expect that Emperor Sheng Chang would have such a plan, and even wanted to marry the eldest princess to Qin Guangguang.
Not to mention that Qin Guangguang was unwilling to marry the eldest princess back then, although it was not obvious, I believe that the emperor also knew that he would not marry the eldest princess at all, and now he actually said that he was in love with the eldest princess back then? Or continue the leading edge?
What's even more ridiculous is that he returned to Daxing Kingdom at this time because the Cheng family would soon tear up his face with the national teacher, and as for the fact that the eldest princess's concubine had just died for a year, he didn't know at all.
"Emperor Qi, the courtiers returned to Daxing at this time, because King Ding heard about our continent, and after hearing about Daxingguo, he was very interested in us here, and it happened that the nephew of the courtier went to Daxing to find the courtier, saying that his father was old, and the courtier should go home to serve around, so the courtier took King Ding and Princess Ding back to Daxing Country together. As for the death of the eldest princess's concubine, the courtiers only learned from the emperor today that after leaving Daxingguo, the courtiers no longer knew about the affairs of Daxingguo, and it was even more impossible for the courtiers to inquire about the situation of the eldest princess.
The courtiers have already married in Xirui Kingdom, and they have a wife that the Ming media is marrying, and the minister's wife is gentle and graceful, and she also gave birth to a pair of children to the minister, so the minister has no intention of stopping his wife and remarrying, and the minister's wife will only be Cheng Zhou's in this life. ”
Emperor Sheng Chang didn't speak, his heavy eyes stared straight at Qin Guangguang, the emperor's anger did not restrain at all, and after a while, he looked at Old Man Cheng, his voice was majestic and cold, "Grandpa Cheng thinks that the Cheng family has wronged your Cheng family by marrying into a noble princess, is it wronged by your Cheng family?" ”
Old Man Cheng bowed slightly, but his voice was not impatient, "Weichen doesn't dare, it's just that among Weichen's sons, there are no marriages, only the third son is left, and Weichen's third son is now seriously ill in bed, and marrying when his condition has not completely improved, I'm afraid he will wronged that woman." But if the eldest princess is allowed to marry Weichen's second son as a concubine, this will have an impact on the royal face. ”
"For a concubine? The princess of the great rejuvenation of the country, Grandpa Cheng, you actually said that she should be a concubine? You are so bold, do you really think I dare not touch your Cheng family? ”
Emperor Shengchang slapped his palm on the armrest, his eyes were full of cold and vicious aura, and a majestic face gave people extremely strong pressure, this emperor of the great rejuvenation of the country was actually not as incompetent as Zi'er imagined, he was not a puppet under the national teacher.
"The minister is afraid, it's just that the minister's second son already has a wife that the Ming media is marrying, but the emperor plans to let the eldest princess marry the minister's second son, and the eldest princess is the equal wife of the minister's second son, although everyone didn't say it clearly, but the flat wife is also a concubine, and in front of the main wife, you still have to salute." The words that Old Man Cheng said were enough to make the emperor angry, and the emperor's meaning was clearly impossible to let the eldest princess be a flat wife, or even a concubine, but to let Cheng Minghao stop his wife and remarry, or demote the main wife to a concubine and vacate the position of the main wife to the eldest princess.
As for the emperor's purpose in doing this, only he knows. Maybe it's to slap the Cheng family in the face, let them marry a princess whose husband is dead, and let the daughter-in-law who is marrying Ming Media make room for the eldest princess.
Second, it is also possible that Emperor Sheng Chang was resentful of the second master of the Cheng family who refused to marry, even if more than ten years have passed, he can't swallow that breath.
Third, Emperor Sheng Chang may also want to find an excuse to use the Cheng family to open the knife, even if he can't move the Cheng family's muscles and bones, it will also make their skin and flesh hurt.
It's just that no matter what Emperor Shengchang's idea is, how can the Cheng family be able to handle it if he wants to.
If Old Man Cheng can be pinched by Emperor Shengchang in this way, then the Cheng family will not be able to keep it for a long time.
Old Man Cheng's words just now, which were neither soft nor hard, were to force the emperor to open his mouth and see if he dared to say such a thing as asking Cheng Minghao to stop his wife and marry again.
If Emperor Shengchang said such a thing, I am afraid that the royal family of Daxing Kingdom will be criticized by the people of the world, as long as such rumors are guided in the direction, the eldest princess will bully others, and she will always feel that her husband is still arrogantly robbing other people's husbands' messages, which will definitely spread all over the world.
When the time comes, not only will the eldest princess have no face, but even the emperor and the royal family will be affected.
Therefore, as long as the emperor has a little brain, as long as he is not confused to the end, he will not say such a thing as letting the second master of the Cheng family divorce his wife who is marrying the media, and marry the eldest princess.
Emperor Sheng Chang stared at Cheng's father and son for a long time before he said coldly: "Okay, very good, since the second son of the Cheng family already has a wife and can no longer marry the eldest princess, then, Cheng Ye, the eldest young master of the Cheng family, is not young enough, and it's time to get married, right?" ”
Old Man Cheng's lowered eyes flashed with a touch of fierceness, and he replied in a deep voice: "Back to the emperor, Ye'er is at an age suitable for marrying, just because the senior monk asserts that he cannot marry before he is twenty-three years old, so although there is a suitable candidate for Ye'er's family, he has not yet come to the door to propose, just wait for Ye'er to be twenty-three years old, and the minister's eldest daughter-in-law will naturally go to the right family to propose marriage immediately." ”
Emperor Shengchang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled faintly, but there was no smile in his eyes, "Really?" I haven't heard of this, but who in the world can have such a profound Taoism as a national teacher? The national teacher had just given the eldest grandson of the Aiqing family a fortune two days ago, and there was no need to marry a wife at the age of twenty-three. And the national teacher also calculated that the eldest grandson of the grandfather, Cheng Ye, and the princess Cailing are very compatible, so I drafted a holy decree to marry Cheng's grandson, Cheng Ye, and Princess Cailing, and after the grandfather returns home, the holy decree will be delivered. ”
Let Princess CRBT marry Cheng Ye? A tyrannical princess?
How could he marry such a woman?
Jinling City, or the wealthy families of the entire Daxing Kingdom, are willing to marry a woman like Princess Cailing, even if her status is noble.
wants Princess Cailing to marry into the Cheng family and become the eldest daughter-in-law of the Cheng family, how could Old Man Cheng agree?
"Grandpa Cheng and Second Prince Cheng kneel down! When I returned home, I hurriedly prepared to receive the order. Emperor Shengchang looked straight at Old Man Cheng and Cheng Minghao, how is Princess Cailing a person, how can he, who is the emperor, not know? But as the princess of a country, what is it to kill someone?
And let Princess CRBT marry into the Cheng family, it is not Emperor Shengchang for Princess CRBT to live well in the future, the eldest son of the Cheng family is a good person, but his ability is mediocre, Princess CRBT has reached the age of marriage, and it is time to get married, if anyone marries Princess CRBT, it will be very lively.
Why did you let CRBT develop such a character? Such a princess, if used properly, who said that it was not a good move?
Old Man Cheng and Qin Guangguang glanced at each other, and the two bowed and retired, since the emperor asked them to step down, naturally he would not say anything to them, and even if they wanted to prevent the emperor from giving marriage, it was unlikely.
Everything is still going back to the house first, and then thinking about it in the long run, even if the emperor decrees, Princess Cailing does not say that she can marry Cheng Ye immediately.
Old Man Cheng and Qin Guangguang walked out of Longteng Palace, Zi'er and they just walked back, seeing her father and grandfather's gloomy faces, Zi'er frowned slightly, and stepped forward to ask, "Grandpa, Dad, what's wrong?" What did your emperor say? ”
Old Man Cheng looked at Zi'er, shook his head slightly, and said, "It's okay, let's go back to the house first." ”
"Dad, tell me, what did the emperor tell you just now? I don't know, but if it weren't for something excessive, you wouldn't have had such a face. ”
Zi'er and Cheng Minghao's "Qin Luster, I will change my name to Cheng Minghao in the future" have been together for a while, and they naturally know him a little, if it is not very excessive, he will not be so angry.
Cheng Minghao also understood Zi'er's temperament, so when he heard her ask, he didn't hide it from her, and said in a low voice: "The emperor first assigned marriage to his father, and asked his father to marry the eldest princess who passed away for a year, but his father and your grandfather did not agree, and then he assigned Cheng Ye to marry Princess Cailing and let Princess Cailing marry him, Princess Cailing has a problem. ”
In the latter sentence, Cheng Minghao's voice was a little small, but it was enough for Zi'er and Beichenluo to hear it clearly.
Although it was only a few words, Zi'er and Beichen Luo both understood what had just happened in the Dragon Teng Palace.
Let her father marry a princess who has just died, and still under the condition that her mother is still alive, does this emperor mean that he does not take her mother in his eyes? Which man does he want to marry the eldest princess, regardless of whether the man has a wife or not? And that man's wife, she has to give up the position of the main wife?
I also want to know that when a princess of a country marries, it is impossible for her to be a concubine, so she naturally wants to take away the position of other people's wives.
Cheng Minghao sensed the anger in Zi'er's eyes, and said to her with a smile: "Zi'er, don't worry, your father refused, and your grandfather would not agree." Dad has guarded your mother and your brother all his life, you now have the king, and when the time comes to return to the country of Xirui, there is not much time for your father to see you, but with the king by your side, Dad is very relieved. ”
"And what about Big Brother? Will the eldest brother be willing to marry that CRBT princess? Zi'er wasn't worried at all about which eldest princess her father would marry, wasn't her father unwilling to marry back then? Naturally, they are even more reluctant now. She still believes in her father's character, and it is impossible to abandon her mother.
"My Cheng family will not let such a vicious woman enter the door, Zi'er, this matter is handled by grandpa, and Ye'er will not be allowed to marry such a woman. Let's go home first, even if we receive the holy decree? It's not that my Cheng family hasn't done an example of getting the emperor to take back the holy decree. ”
Old Man Cheng's face gradually calmed down, just now he was not afraid and worried, but angry. The emperor clearly wants to embarrass the Cheng family.
"Order? Decreed so soon? Zi'er raised her eyebrows, can't the princess of the royal family marry or what? So eager to stuff that princess into their Cheng family?
Qin Guangguang nodded: "The emperor just said, let us go back to the mansion to prepare for the decree, I think that after we return to the mansion, the holy decree will follow." Just now, your grandfather and I didn't think about refusing, the emperor clearly wants to marry a princess to a family, either the eldest princess, or the princess of Cailing, but at that time in front of the emperor, the emperor will not give us a chance to refuse, this matter, let's go back to the house first. ”
"Grandpa, father, you go back to the house first, and the prince and I will go to see the emperor, we will not let such a holy decree appear in the Cheng family."
Zi'er has her own idea in her heart, the emperor wants to give marriage to the people of the Cheng family, whether it is the matter of the eldest princess or the marriage date of her eldest brother Cheng Ye, I am afraid it is the emperor's temporary plan.
It is estimated that she and Beichenluo did not give face to the emperor of Daxingguo just now, and directly slapped his face in front of him, and even used the trade exchanges with the neighbors of Daxingguo to threaten him, so the emperor of Daxingguo wanted to sprinkle the anger he received from them on her grandfather and father.
To marry the Cheng family, in the emperor's opinion, the Cheng family cannot refuse whether they are willing or unwilling, since he, the emperor of a country, has made a holy decree, even if the people of the Cheng family do not want to marry, they have to marry.
For the emperor's approach, if it is none of her business, Zi'er will naturally not care, but if the emperor is involved in the Cheng family because of her and Beichenluo, then how can she let the Cheng family suffer such a grievance? Let this emperor of the Great Rejuvenation Kingdom, ride on their heads?
Even if it wasn't in the country of Xirui, even if it wasn't in their continent, Zi'er was sure that no one could hurt them.
No matter how much they rejuvenate the country, they don't have the slightest foundation, but so what, with the more than 200 people they brought, just by their own ability, even if they go to such an unfamiliar place everywhere, they don't need to be jealous because of their ignorance of the environment and the ignorance of the forces of all parties.
What's more, there is the Cheng family behind them, and the power of the Cheng family, who can say that it can't be used by them?
This time I came to Daxingguo, originally to fight with the national teacher, the Cheng family needs to rely on Zi'er and them, and Zi'er and they also need to use the power of the Cheng family, only in this way can they defeat him on the territory of the national teacher!
Zi'er and they arrived yesterday, and the news of their arrival in Daxingguo, the national teacher must have known it early in the morning, but the national teacher has not made any moves these days, except for those pirates, Zi'er and their journey can be said to be very smooth.
As a national teacher, it is impossible for him not to do anything, even if he is not completely ready, he will make some small moves, and now that it is so calm, it can only show that a bigger storm is brewing secretly.
It's just that no matter how strong the wind and rain are, what does it matter, have they experienced less wind and rain along the way?
"Zi'er, grandpa has his own thoughts on this matter, don't be impulsive, this is the palace, there are not many guards in the palace, and when you and King Ding entered the palace, you could only bring two people, and those two people were not by your side at this time, and if you anger the emperor, you will only gain more than you lose."
Although Old Man Cheng has heard of the power of King Ding and Zi'er, even if they are powerful, no matter how powerful they are, it is still necessary to calm down in this palace.
"Grandpa, do you think that after such a marriage decree is given to the eldest brother, the eldest brother's future family affairs will still be smooth?"
Her grandfather and father would not let the princess enter the door, but if the emperor's decree to marry her eldest brother arrived in Cheng's mansion, everyone in the world knew that the emperor intended to let the royal princess marry Cheng Ye, even if Cheng Ye did not marry the princess, how many people would dare to marry their daughter to Cheng Ye in the future?
Old Man Cheng and Cheng Minghao heard Zi'er's hand, and their expressions were cold, which they didn't take into account, but it was a very important point, with the emperor marrying Princess Cailing and Cheng Ye in front, even if this family affair can't be done, in the future, who would dare to let their daughter marry Chengye, the grandson of Cheng's family, who almost became Princess Cailing's concubine?
Who isn't worried about marrying his daughter to Cheng Ye, which will attract the emperor's dissatisfaction and Princess Cailing's resentment?
After all, Princess Cailing's brutal temper is well-known in Jinling City.
"Zi'er, the holy decree of giving your eldest brother a marriage can't be passed on."
Cheng Minghao's eyes were a little more solemn, if it wasn't for Zi'er's reminder, they would definitely take this holy decree, and then find a way to let the emperor take it back.
In this way, even if the emperor fails to give marriage, Cheng Ye has already been branded with the brand of CRBT work, which family dares to touch it?
"Grandpa, Daddy, don't worry, that kind of holy decree will not appear in our Cheng family. Grandpa, Dad, you can go out of the palace first, you can go back to the house first, or you can wait for me and Beichen Luo to take care of things before going back together. ”
In this matter, Zi'er and Beichen Luo didn't think it was tricky, and it was not very difficult for the emperor of Daxingguo to change his mind and no longer give marriage to the people of the Cheng family.
