Chapter 408: Beautiful Boys' Group
After three days like this, in the morning of this day, Emperor Zhengyuan suddenly issued an order: to seal Du Juan as the lord of Jing'an, and to give her the mountains and rivers in a radius of several hundred miles east and south of Huangfeng Ridge, including Quanshui Village, Lishugou and Fengwei Mountain Huiyan Valley.
For a while, there was an uproar.
The title Jing'an, including Dajing and Anguo at the same time, is not inexpensive!
Although the fief is not large, the Dajing ancestral system never gives a fief to the princess, let alone the county lord. The courtiers knew that the emperor had softened, missed the prince, and pitied his daughter for being left in the countryside for many years, so they made an exception to compensate.
Although Zhao Yushi admired the cuckoo, he still came out to admonish him.
He said that the county lord of Jing'an has a special identity, and he is the grandson of Emperor Yingwu and the daughter of the granddaughter of King Qinglong, so it is appropriate to give the name "Jing'an"; However, the emperor thought of the late prince and was about to plan for his daughter, and giving her a fief was tantamount to putting her on the cusp of the storm, but he was afraid that she would be in a more difficult situation in the future than before.
Other courtiers, such as Wang Cheng, also admonished.
Emperor Zhengyuan set his sights on several princes.
Prince Yong said: "Erchen heard that she grows tea on a high mountain. Erchen drank that tea and felt relaxed, not comparable to other famous teas. Erchen thought that since ordinary people could not go to the mountain, and the cuckoo had been operating there for many years, she would not have wasted her money, or would be forcibly occupied by greedy people in the future, so her father might as well give her the mountain and the nearby valley together, thinking that she would have a place to live. As soon as the fief is said, it will be exempted, what Zhao Yushi said is extremely true. ”
Several other princes hurriedly chimed in, saying that this was the most appropriate.
The five princes also specifically proposed: once the title is given, it is officially recognized as a royal person, and the lord of Jing'an County cannot live in the countryside. She should be picked up in Beijing. Because with the age of the county lord, it is too late to say goodbye. Could it be that she is looking for a son-in-law in the countryside? Where to put the royal face!
As soon as these words came out, the temple was quiet again.
It's a conundrum. I've picked it up twice, but I haven't picked it up.
Also, I heard that the county lord of Jing'an and the prince of the country, Lin Xiucai, had been married since he was a child, and it was set by the adoptive parents of the Huang family; Later, he had some involvement with Huang Hanlin, but at this time, everyone was unanimously silent, and there was no such thing.
Emperor Zhengyuan looked at Zhao Yushi and asked, "Zhao Aiqing, have you seen her, what do you think?" ”
Zhao Yushi sighed in his heart. said: "Your Majesty, the county lord is smart and beautiful, his heroic appearance is not inferior to that of a man, and his personality is also ...... It is also refreshing and very assertive. Weichen thought that this matter should be considered in the long run, and she must not be forced to enter Beijing, otherwise the consequences will be the same as before. The emperor might as well send someone to give a reward first, and then recognize this granddaughter. ”
Emperor Zhengyuan was silent when he heard this.
Prime Minister Wang Cheng came out at this time and said: "Your Majesty." The county lord has been lonely since he was a child, and the minister thought that he would send some people to protect and serve first. When she slowly accepts the royal family, it will be logical to take her to Beijing on the New Year's Day or the emperor's birthday. ”
"Hmm!" Emperor Zhengyuan nodded slightly when he heard this.
An old prince also stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty." When the eldest princess of Anguo Jingyi and the lord of Yanqing were in Dajing, the guards around them were all children of the Anguo family selected by the Qinglong King. In the opinion of the old ministers, the emperor might as well select young talents with good backgrounds from Beijing. led the dragon guards and palace maids and eunuchs to escort and serve the county lord. Over time, the county lord may be able to choose a good son-in-law. Then go back to Beijing. ”
"Uncle Huang's words are very satisfying!" Emperor Zhengyuan high-fived and smiled, "That's it!" The matter was left to the Queen. ”
Prince Yong looked at his father with a smile on his face. No more sounds.
The fifth prince looked at him with a very playful expression.
Zhao Yushi felt sorry for Lin Chun in his heart, and there was no reason to stop him.
After the early dynasty dispersed, Emperor Zhengyuan immediately went to Kunning Palace and discussed with the empress.
In the next few days, Kunning Palace was very lively, the imperial relatives and foreign women came and went frequently, and the eunuchs and palace ladies were also busy packing and rewarding.
A few days later, the queen selected a group of children of the family, and after being summoned by Emperor Zhengyuan himself, she selected eight people with good appearance, together with two hundred dragon guards and ten eunuchs, thirty palace maids, and a group of officials from the Ministry of Works, still led by Gonggong Qiu, to Quanshui Village to pass the decree to give the cuckoo and build the county lord's mansion for her.
This is still the number of people who have been reduced after the efforts of Gonggong Qiu.
Gonggong Qiu first talked about the temperament and character of the cuckoo, and said that the mountain road is difficult to travel, and the transportation of materials is inconvenient.
Emperor Zhengyuan issued an order: order to bring more silver taels and buy a large amount of salt and grain from Shanyang County to bring into the mountain; The queen also gave a large number of silk and satin clothing and jewelry, medicines and medicinal formulas, various exquisite dried fruits and dim sum recipes, and also sent two imperial chefs.
The princes saw that the emperor was merciful, and they were happy to Zhang Luo for their granddaughter, not to mention the fact that the late prince was harmed by the demon girl of Anguo, and the situation was difficult to reverse.
Emperor Zhengyuan was not confused, and ordered that the queen had all been arranged, and they only needed to send some rare things to their nieces and do their best to care for the elders, and everyone would obey their fate.
In the back garden of Prince Yong's mansion, on a hillside, green pines and cypresses cover an open pavilion with four corners. In the pavilion, Prince Yong sat at the stone table, Lin Chun squatted on the ground fan stove to boil water, ready to make tea, but the entourage was standing far away outside the pavilion.
When the water boiled, Lin Chun lifted the copper kettle and poured the water into a teapot with a blue and white pine crane longevity pattern. Pour only half of the tea first, and then fill it up again when the tea leaves are stretched. After waiting for a while, he took the teapot and poured the tea into the blue and white porcelain cup with blue and white patterns, and presented it to Prince Yong.
"You're pretty skilled." Prince Yong smiled.
Lin Chun poured another cup for himself before sitting down beside him.
The two of them drank tea in silence.
After taking two sips, Prince Yong sighed: "In the end, this tea tastes good." ”
Lin Chun raised his eyes to look at him and said softly, "This is not good. ”
Seeing that Prince Yong was puzzled, he explained: "This water is not good. If you use the spring water on Fengwei Mountain, it is clear and sweet, and the taste of the tea brewed is authentic. ”
Prince Yong was silent.
After drinking a cup of tea, Lin Chun poured another cup for him.
He didn't drink, looked at him and asked, "Are you sad?" ”
Lin Chun held the small and delicate fine porcelain teacup in both hands, rubbed the delicate blue lines of flowers and plants on it with his thumb, and was silent and did not answer. But. But there was an endless gloom in his eyes, so heavy that it was about to drip out.
Prince Yong looked up. Look at the nearby pines and cypresses.
"It's useless to be upset. She's not something you can hope for right now. ”
"The cuckoos won't like them."
"So what, it won't be your turn!"
Lin Chun couldn't help but clench his cup. If you are not careful, you will hear a "click" sound, and the cup will be poured with broken water. He stared blankly at the shard, overwhelmed.
Prince Yong glanced absentmindedly and looked into the distance.
"The cuckoo won't like them. The prince just watched her being forced? ”
Lin Chun couldn't help but ask.
Prince Yong shook his head and said, "This king has no choice. If you are not strong enough, you will not be able to keep the woman you love. The ninth brother of this king, who was once the crown prince of the dynasty, also can't keep his woman, what can this king do? ”
He narrowed his eyes. Cover a glimmer of pain.
Lin Chun lowered his eyes, and the spring breeze in the garden was slow, but he felt depressed.
Suddenly, his tense nerves slowly relaxed, and he quietly exhaled.
Prince Yong noticed it, turned his face and asked, "What, you don't want to elope with her, do you?" There are so many clansmen in the Lin family, where will you put them? As a man, he should stand up to the sky. If you abandon your family and loved ones, you will end up dismally. 'The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king', where can you flee? back then. Prince Yanwei and Lord Yanqing have so many personal guards and retinue to protect them, but they haven't escaped the royal pursuit of the two countries, what are you! ”
The boy sat blankly. It seems to have been struck to despair.
Prince Yong raised his head and drank the tea in the cup, and he didn't know how to add it to him.
Prince Yong didn't care. He took the pot and poured a cup, then took another cup from the tea tray. He poured a cup for Lin Chun and put it in front of him.
"If you don't have the ability, you can't keep your woman. Don't say that her current status is very different from yours, even when she was just a village girl, it was the same. Huang Yuan is a lesson from the past. - Didn't she almost marry him? In the end, it still can't protect her. Now he is working hard, but unfortunately it is too late! It's late! ”
As he spoke, he narrowed his eyes again and looked at the trees below the slope to the rolling houses in front of him.
Lin Chun suddenly said: "If the student helps the prince ascend the throne, will the prince let me marry the cuckoo?" ”
Prince Yong was shocked when he heard this, and retracted his gaze and looked at him strangely.
After half a sound, he smiled and said: "Don't say that you don't have that ability, even if you have some means to help this king, this king can't promise you." ”
Seeing that he seemed puzzled, he said meaningfully: "Relying on others will not succeed after all, only if you yourself are strong enough can you achieve your wishes." Look at the Qinglong King, what kind of courage he was back then, he brought a country to marry the lord of Zilan County, surrendered to Dajing, which attracted the attention of the world, and the people of the two countries admired it infinitely, and the queen of heaven was even more famous! Men should be like that! There is also the first generation of the White Tiger King, who set up a family affair with the princess's childhood sweetheart, and after several twists and turns, almost separated by life and death, it was also after twists and turns to achieve a good fate; There is also the first generation of King Xuanwu, who was exiled from his family back then, and he also rose after twists and turns; There is also the first generation of Suzaku King, who was just a wild boy in the countryside who was not in the middle of the country, and also rose in the national disaster......"
As he spoke, Lin Chun's fists clenched unconsciously, and his whole body trembled slightly.
In the twilight of spring, the weather in the capital seems to be very stuffy, and he is hot and dry.
Suddenly, he stood up and said to Prince Yong: "Lord, the student has gone back to study." ”
Without waiting for him to answer, he turned around and walked out of the pavilion and disappeared into the tree-lined path.
Prince Yong looked at his back and slowly picked up the teacup.
On Changxing Road, where the Hanlin Courtyard is located, there is an inconspicuous alley, and Huang Yuan lives in one of the small courtyards. That night, a crescent moon hung over the treetops, leaking a cold glow out the window. He sat alone in front of the window, stroking the strings with his hands, but he did not play.
"Where's the beautiful boy group! You've got your eyes covered. ”
He smiled and whispered, not knowing what was going on in his mind.
Suddenly, the piano sounded, gently, very calmly.
At the end of April, the day before the departure of the team sent by Emperor Zhengyuan to bestow the cuckoo, Zhang Gui, the son of King Xuanwu, followed his father into the palace.
"You're going too?"
Emperor Zhengyuan looked at the heroic young man kneeling in front of him and asked in surprise.
