108 One Hundred Eight
"I don't agree!" The emperor said angrily.
"Brother Huang, my brother has made up his mind." Chu Wei said firmly.
Instantly, the atmosphere in the hall was stalemate.
Everyone bowed their heads and fell silent.
After a while, the Queen Mother slowly opened her mouth and said, "Chu Wei, your imperial brother is also for your good." Miss Yan Xiangyu has no family background, no talent, and a businessman, how can she be worthy of you? ”
"No, the queen mother, the sons are not good, except for going to the battlefield to kill the enemy, nothing else. Erchen thought that she and Erchen were just right. Chu Wei insisted.
"Nonsense!" The emperor said: "You are the prince of the Great Zhou, the general of the Great Zhou, you don't know anything, how can she be worthy of such a noble status?" ”
The Queen Mother continued: "Yes, if you want to get married, the other party must at least be the daughter of the prince of Zhenguo, the daughter of the prime minister, no matter how bad it is, it should be the daughter of Chengfu, you marry a people's daughter, and you will have a support behind you......"
It was quiet inside and outside the hall, and only a few people could be heard.
Cheng Wentao couldn't help but look at Yan Mingyu again, Yan Mingyu didn't look at him from beginning to end, but kept looking at Chu Wei, his eyes were sometimes surprised, sometimes clear, sometimes confused, sometimes indescribable, and more calm.
"The queen mother, the imperial brother, the ancestors of the former dynasty and the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are all things to marry the daughters of the people, the people are the foundation of the country, there is no distinction between the cheap and the valuable, why not marry the people? Moreover, the sons of the sons are the emperor's ministers and the sons of the queen mother, and the sons of the sons and daughters do not need the support of others, you are the backers of the sons. Chu Wei said righteously.
Hearing this, a trace of guilt suddenly flashed in the emperor's eyes, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye, and then looked at the Queen Mother, who gave him a look. The two of them have their own thoughts, their own considerations and their own decisions in their hearts.
After a while, the Queen Mother said slowly: "Chu Wei, do you really have to marry her?" ”
"Erchen is willing." Chu Wei said.
"If the mourning family doesn't agree, there's no way?"
Chu Wei didn't speak.
The Queen Mother said slowly: "Since you insist on insisting, and you are happy with each other, the mourning family doesn't want to say much, spare her for the time being today, if she dares to see no one in her eyes anymore, the mourning family will not tolerate it, you take her away from Yong'an Palace." ”
The emperor reluctantly said: "Queen Mother! ”
"Thank you, Mother." Chu Wei was expressionless on his face, but he was happy in his heart.
The Queen Mother waved her hand and said: "Emperor, Chu Wei is twenty-five years old, it is rare for him to like one person." Do you want to see him lonely until he grows old? ”
The emperor was speechless, he understood that Chu Wei had been sensible since he was a child, he went to the frontier at the age of twelve, stationed all the year round, and kept one side safe, good is good, but people are too arrogant, and now they are twenty-five, but there is no woman around. Now it's so easy, Chu Wei has taken a fancy to it, how can he disagree.
Chu Wei immediately thanked him.
Concubine Li couldn't turn around, so she agreed?
The Imperial Physician was still on his knees, and although he had been in the palace for twenty or thirty years, he had never been involved in political affairs, but he knew a lot about the twists and turns of it, and it was not surprising that the result turned out.
General Chu is famous, especially in the border areas, everyone knows General Chu, but no one may know the emperor. In the Central Plains, there are countless people who pass on General Chu's victory in a hundred battles as a myth, and the existence of General Chu is the representative of the peace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, including him, the imperial doctor, who has long admired General Chu. It is not an exaggeration to use the words "high merit covers the master".
In this case, the emperor and the queen mother are under great pressure, on the one hand, relying on the troops under General Chu, and on the other hand, they are afraid of him as a person, and they are always on guard.
General Chu's talismans, they wanted to take it back but didn't dare to take it back and had no reason to take it back, for fear of shaking the morale of the army and causing turmoil.
General Chu's marriage, they wanted to point him to the right person, but they didn't dare, the right door means that General Chu is more powerful, and they are afraid of annoying General Chu by pointing to a small family.
So how to treat General Chu, whether it is the emperor or the queen mother, is a lot of effort. The method adopted by the Queen Mother is to be co-opted as if it had already been done. But they were still jealous in their hearts.
At this time, General Chu said that he fell in love with the girl with Yan Xiangyu, but in fact, the emperor and the queen mother agreed in her heart.
The Great Zhou Dynasty has not been without officials, princes, etc. who have married people's daughters, so the emperor and the queen mother are just a formality. They were probably very happy in their hearts that General Chu had solved the problem they had been facing. As for the Jade Girl's offense, the royal family has many ways to cover it up, and it is not a big problem at all.
It's just that General Chu exchanged these talismans for these, and as a part of the Great Zhou, the imperial doctor really didn't think it was worth it. After all, the Jade Girl is just a civilian woman.
But General Chu seemed satisfied.
Chu Wei stood up, said goodbye to the Queen Mother and the Emperor, and then walked outside the hall, took Yan Mingyu's hand and said, "Let's go." ”
Suddenly being held by a thick palm, Yan Mingyu's heart jumped, and he looked at Chu Wei, but nodded: "Hmm." ”
Cheng Wentao was still kneeling outside the hall as he did at the beginning, watching Chu Wei hold Mingyu's hand tightly, watching Mingyu let him pull it, watching the two of them leave hand in hand, he couldn't tell what it felt like in his heart, just like the treasure that originally attributed himself suddenly became someone else's, this kind of loss, melancholy, and bitterness came in a surge, which made him sad beyond measure.
Mingyu, does she also like General Chu?
"Big brother, big brother." Cheng Shulan shouted twice.
Cheng Wentao came back to his senses and said, "Shulan, what's wrong?" ”
Cheng Shulan understood Cheng Wentao's thoughts and said: "The emperor and the queen mother have gone to see the queen mother, Aunt Fang Caifang told me, I will go to Renshou Palace to see the queen mother in a while, and talk to the queen mother, now Mingyu is fine, or you go back to Cheng Mansion first." ”
Cheng Wentao nodded unspiritedly: "Okay, I'll go home first." ”
Cheng Wentao got up and walked out.
"Big brother." Cheng Shulan shouted.
Cheng Wentao looked back dejectedly.
Cheng Shulan said: "Big brother, next month you will marry Miss Zhang's house." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Cheng Wentao said slowly, subconsciously nodded: "Yes, I will get married next month, and I will get married next month...... and then staggered forward.
Cheng Shulan looked straight at his back, thinking of his lost soul when Mingyu "died", she felt a little sad, but what was the use, from now on, Mingyu is no longer a maid, but a princess. She wasn't with him before, and she won't be with him in the future.
Cheng Wentao returned to Cheng's Mansion listlessly on the front foot, and the letter from Concubine Li's mother on the back foot was clearly handed to Cheng's Mansion and Wang's Mansion.
When the old lady of Wangfu heard that it was the letter handed by Concubine Li, she immediately closed her mouth happily and said, "I'm presbyopia, hurry, hurry up and Mrs. will call me and read the letter to me." ”
After a while, Mrs. Wang arrived.
Old Madam Wang smiled and handed her the letter: "Why did you come here for so long, hurry, it was a letter from Concubine Li's mother, it must be a family affair between Mo Lan and General Chu!" Mrs. Wang smiled, thinking to herself, it is estimated that the Yan makeup jade girl was also beheaded, she took such pains to "kill", how could that yellow-haired girl escape!
"Really?" Mrs. Wang was overjoyed. You must know that being able to get close to General Chu is a great joy, and in the future, Concubine Li will be mixed up in the palace, and the son born will also have the relationship with General Chu, and the relationship between inside and outside the court will be much better.
"Quick, read it to me." Old Madam Wang smiled and couldn't wait.
Mrs. Wang also said with a smile on her face: "Old lady, don't worry, don't worry, I'm opening the letter." Mrs. Wang slowly and carefully opened the letter and unfolded it slowly.
"Hurry up." Mrs. Wang urged.
When Mrs. Wang was about to read the letter, the smile that had not faded suddenly froze on her face, her eyes stared at the letter, her eyes turned downward, and she quickly read the letter, and her face became worse and worse.
Old Madam Wang was stunned when she saw this: "What's wrong?" ”
Mrs. Wang took her eyes off the letter and looked at Mrs. Wang's face.
"What's the matter, you're talking?" Old Madam Wang was anxious.
Mrs. Wang said: "Mother, Concubine Li said that General Chu was in Yong'an Palace and asked the emperor and the queen mother for marriage in public. ”
"Marriage? What kind of marriage is given? Who is he with? And Mo Lan? Mrs. Wang asked rhetorically.
"No, please give him a marriage with Miss Yan Xiangyu."
As soon as Mrs. Wang's voice fell, Mrs. Wang was shocked and asked on the spot: "Jade, jade, jade girl is not dead?" She was not given death by the emperor, but was given marriage? Old Madam Wang couldn't believe it.
Mrs. Wang said: "Yes, she cured the queen's mother." ”
"Nonsense!" Old Madam Wang still didn't believe it, snatched the letter, squinted her eyes, and sure enough, she saw that Concubine Li's letter clearly said that General Chu wanted to marry Miss Yan Xiangyu, and Concubine Li didn't have time to blow the pillow wind and wanted the emperor to mention this matter.
"Mother, mother." Mrs. Wang shouted.
Mrs. Wang was almost stunned by the news, and hurriedly sat on the chair with the support of Mrs. Wang, her chest rose and fell, she carefully planned for so long, not only did not kill Yan Mingyu, but let her ascend to the throne of the princess, she lived for most of her life, and that jade girl was only a teenage girl, she couldn't even subdue a little girl!
At the same time, peaceful, docile, dignified, reserved, generous, decent, sensible, and noble for a period of time, Mrs. Cheng's image finally collapsed, and she angrily slammed the tea bowl in her hand on the ground, making a "bang" sound, and then scolded: "Slut, slut!" ”
Cheng Molan was even more "wow", lying on the table and crying bitterly, crying heartbroken. She has been thinking about and thinking about Chu Wei, and taking marrying Chu Wei as her life goal, seeing that Concubine Li has agreed to contribute, but he wants to marry Yan Mingyu, that cheap girl, how can she stand this blow! 166 Reading Network
