Chapter 401: Second Grade
On the afternoon of the second day when Shen Xing was facing the saint, Yu Meng's family of five hurriedly entered the palace under the leadership of the inner servant and was received by Emperor Shengde. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the main hall, Emperor Shengde sat on the top, and the prince of the lower ranks, the prince He Shengyuan, and all the adult princes except the crown prince were listed.
Yu Meng led his wife and children into the center of the main hall, knelt down on one knee and saluted Emperor Shengde: "Yu Meng sees Your Majesty, may your Majesty live long live!"
"King Miao, please get up quickly, no need to be polite."
Emperor Shengde raised his hand to help him, and with a smile on his lips, he hurriedly asked Yu Meng to get up.
Yu Meng was not hypocritical, as soon as Emperor Shengde's voice fell, he took the lead in standing up, and his wife and children behind him also got up one after another, and then hugged their fists and saluted everyone present one by one, and everyone also returned the salute.
Yu Meng is proud in his heart, thinking that he is the king of Miao, kneeling to the sky and kneeling to his parents, if it is not for the safety of the southwest region, if it is not for the people under his command to live and work in peace and contentment, he is not willing to bow down to the great sage, and he is not willing to kneel on one knee now and worship the emperor of the great sage.
Emperor Shengde knew Yu Meng's arrogance in his heart, but he didn't show or blame on his face, and after the two exchanged pleasantries, Emperor Shengde instructed Gonggong Mo to let him take Liang Minhua and the three children to the harem, and the queen and the lady came forward to receive and serve tea, and he talked to Yu Meng in the main hall.
As soon as the others left, Emperor Shengde smiled and asked Yu Meng, who was already seated: "That's your little county lord, right?" I met Shen Aiqing yesterday and learned that you are actually sons and daughters?"
The reason why Emperor Shengde asked this question today is because every move in the capital cannot escape his eyes, and Gu Secret Guard came to report, after Yu Meng entered Beijing, the group and Shen Xingnan were separated at the Xiatangguan ferry, and the two parties did not meet in the past two days.
Seeing Shen Xingnan yesterday, it was impossible for him to communicate his attitude with Yu Meng, and today he suddenly asked this question, and Emperor Shengde also wanted to test out Yu Meng's original intention.
Yu Meng and Shen Xingnan have not met, and it is impossible for them to meet and communicate in private, and now they can best test the deep meaning behind this marriage.
It's better to be like both of them say, or else......
Yu Meng didn't care about the twists and turns in Emperor Shengde's heart, as early as when the marriage was decided, he and Brother Shen had sorted things out before and after, and they didn't need to care about the thoughts of the person in front of them, let alone be afraid of him checking it.
Now that he asked, Yu Meng must have replied according to the rhetoric that had been discussed.
"Back to Your Majesty, here's how it ......"
Yu Meng also told the cause and effect of the incident, except for the different angles of the narrative, the content of the matter is the same as what Shen Xingnan said.
After hearing this, Emperor Shengde let go of half of his heart, and the half he was still carrying, so he had to wait for the secret guard who went to Wenzhou to investigate, and the flying pigeon returned before making a decision.
Emperor Shengde held his beard and listened to Yu Meng's narration, with a smile on his face, neither objecting nor immediately agreeing.
He Shengyuan had met Yu Meng at the port, and he also knew about the marriage between the two families, as the prince who didn't care about idle things, now was not the time for him to interject, so He Shengyuan could only sit honestly and didn't say much like other princes.
It wasn't until the end of this sensitive topic just now that everyone was waiting to drink the good tea served by the palace maid, and everyone started talking word by word, and their anger gradually eased.
In the evening, Emperor Shengde got a hint from Gonggong Mo, saying that the banquet had been prepared, so Emperor Shengde waved his hand and led Yu Meng and others to the banquet hall in the back garden.
At the beginning of Yin Shi three days later, Shen Xingnan got up early in the morning, and there was no way that today was a big court meeting, or Emperor Shengde had specially explained, and he must participate, so he had to get up and rush to the early court if he didn't do it early.
In autumn in the capital, the cool breeze is a little cold at night.
Li Yunbao also got up to help her husband take care of it, this is the first time she got up in the middle of the night to help her husband, in order to send her husband to the morning court, I have to say that this is a novel experience.
After serving her husband to put on his official uniform, he sorted out the hem of his clothes, and after tidying it up, he was busy letting the maids eat.
Shen Xingnan used a small bowl of bird's nest porridge, which Li Yunbao specially ordered to boil last night, but Shen Xingnan refused to use it again after eating a small bowl.
Li Yunbao didn't remember which book he had read in his previous life, as if he couldn't eat more in the early days, just to prevent the loss of honor in front of the palace.
In this way, Li Yunbao no longer persuaded him, but just took a few pieces of dim sum that smelled no big smell, found a small copper box and put it in his purse, handed it to his husband and asked him to fill it, and ate two pieces when he was hungry.
Shen Xingnan smiled and took the cuffs, reached out to hug his wife, and kissed Li Yunbao.
"I'm leaving, you go to sleep for a while, the province is out of energy at dawn."
"Okay, be careful on the road."
After Li Yunbao answered obediently, he didn't forget to take the cloak that the maids had prepared to put aside, and after taking the cloak, Li Yunbao gently helped Shen Xingnan tie it, stood on tiptoe and gently kissed the corner of Shen Xingnan's lips, and then quickly retreated.
"Let's go, don't be late."
Shen Xingnan stretched out his hand and pinched his wife's face, glanced at it with affection, and then turned around and left the house.
Shen Xingnan is no stranger to the previous dynasty, he often suffered from this sin in his previous life, and when he went out to fight, Shen Xingnan was like everyone every day, in fact, the early dynasty was a chore.
For the first time in his life, he didn't need anyone's guidance, and quickly found his position.
As Emperor Shengde walked step by step to the dragon chair in the center of the main hall, the civil and military officials knelt down and bowed to the ground.
As soon as he came up today, Emperor Shengde changed his previous style and directly asked Gonggong Mo to read out the holy decree that had been prepared last night.
The content of the holy decree is very simple, at the beginning, Lala described a lot of Shen Xingnan's exploits in Minzhou Mansion in the past three years, and then personally named Shen Xingnan as the general of the auxiliary country, and took charge of the Beijing machine to guard the north and south battalions with a total of 100,000 soldiers and horses.
Shen Xingnan calmly accepted the order and thanked him in the eyes of many officials in the court, who were surprised, dissatisfied, or envious.
This is the late autumn of the forty-fifth year of Shengde, and after Shen Xingnan was reborn, he went through seven cold and summers, and finally came to the position where he died in the previous life.
Cheng Guifei, the prince's biological mother, dressed up carefully this day, took the palace maids and the attendants around her, and walked all the way to the Yixin Palace.
Coming to the door of the Yixin Palace, Cheng Guifei was stopped outside the main hall by the guards, and Gonggong Mo was serving Emperor Shengde in the main hall, and he heard a voice from outside at the tip of his ear, and when Emperor Shengde frowned impatiently, he quietly retreated to check what was going on.
As soon as Gonggong Mo came out of the hall, he saw Cheng Guifei, he had a smile on his face, and walked quickly forward to greet Cheng Guifei.
"The slave maid has seen the concubine Niangniang, and the maid is blessed with Jin'an."
"Excuse me, Gonggong Mo, Your Majesty will not be able to be empty? The palace specially stewed a cup of ginseng and chicken soup today, and used it to replenish His Majesty's body. ”
