5, the eldest princess
As the curtain of the door of the treasure makeup flower was lifted, a woman surrounded by pearls and greenery came in Zhenhui Hall. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
I saw that she was wearing a peony and phoenix pattern raccoon brocade shirt on the top, a blue smoke and purple embroidered scale-dragging long skirt on the bottom, her hair was coiled high, and she combed a slightly domineering knife-shaped double bun, on which the gold silk inlaid ruby double luan dotted emerald step was swaying slightly with her steps. The thin white wrist has a blue and white glass bead inlaid gold wrist wheel, reflecting the beaded gold necklace around the neck, which inexplicably makes people feel golden.
At this time, on her slightly charming face, a pair of sharp Danfeng eyes were raised high, and she said with a smile: "Why don't you say it?" Why did I stop as soon as I came in? β
Mrs. Lin, who was at the top, looked solemn, and said in her voice with a hint of displeasure: "Why is the eldest princess here today?" β
It is the sister of the current Yongjing Emperor, the eldest princess of Huirong, Qi Mingzhu.
The flat wife of Dingguo Gong Lu Zhengxing.
Hearing the displeasure in Mrs. Lin's voice, Qi Mingzhu's eyes froze, and the domineering color on her face slowly converged, and she changed her smile to Mrs. Lin: "Daughter-in-law greets mother." β
Mrs. Lin nodded faintly, and her voice was calm: "Get up." β
Looking at Mrs. Lin's expressionless face, Qi Mingzhu's eyes flashed with annoyance, but she could only secretly press it, stood up, walked to Ding Guogong's side, and shouted in her voice with disgust: "Grandpa Guo." β
Dingguo Gong glanced at Qi Mingzhu expressionlessly, there was a faint coldness in the depths of his eyes, but he didn't show it, he only said lightly: "If you come, sit down." β
Qi Mingzhu took advantage of the situation and sat beside Qin Wanxiao.
Lu Chenxi secretly looked at the scene in front of him, and there was coldness in his eyes.
Qi Mingzhu, the eldest princess of Huirong, is the daughter of the current Empress Dowager Jiang and the sister of Emperor Yongjing. Since birth, he has been loved by thousands of people, so he has developed a high-flying and domineering character. This kind of temperament reached its peak after Emperor Yongjing ascended the throne and Empress Dowager Jiang was promoted to Empress Dowager.
Qi Mingzhu has grown up since she was a child, and it can be said that she wants wind and rain, as long as she wants something, there is nothing she can't get. Sometimes she doesn't even have to open her mouth, and countless people rush to deliver it to her.
In addition, Qi Mingzhu's appearance combines all the advantages of the first emperor and the Empress Dowager Jiang, and she is beautiful and moving. She has always boasted of being the first noble girl in the Great Zhou, and no one can compare to her.
Therefore, when she first met Lu Zhengxing, who was still the prince of Dingguo Mansion at that time, she had the idea of marrying him. But when she told her mother about this idea with joy and asked her mother to fulfill it, Qi Mingzhu was rejected for the first time in her life.
Empress Dowager Jiang categorically rejected her request.
Qi Mingzhu felt incredulous, she didn't believe that the queen mother, who had always felt the most sorry for her, would refuse to let her marry the person she liked. So she cried and resented, but to no avail.
Qi Mingzhu thought of his imperial brother.
Her imperial brother is the lord of the Great Zhou, and he is the saint of the day, as long as he is willing to help him, then he will definitely be able to do so.
But she was rejected again.
This time she finally calmed down, and she asked Emperor Yongjing why.
Emperor Yongjing told her that it wasn't that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't.
The Lu clan of the Dingguo Mansion is not an existence that he, the so-called emperor, can command. What's more, the one who has had a marriage contract with Lu Zhengxing, the son of Dingguo Gong, since he was a child, is Qin Wanxiao of the Qin family.
It was another thousand-year-old clan that was not inferior to the Lu clan.
The Qin family, as the second largest family in the Great Thursday family, is in charge of the world, and the patriarch Qin is the second assistant of the current dynasty and the former president of Qishan Academy; Qin Wanxiao's elder brother, Qin Xuan, is a scholar of the Palace of Literature and the current president of Qishan Academy.
And Qishan Academy is a holy place in the eyes of the world's students.
Qishan Academy was founded by the ancestors of the Qin family thousands of years ago, and two-thirds of the literati in the world came from Qishan Academy.
Although the Qin family is not in charge of the military, it is the only in-law of the Great Zhou Dynasty with a different surname, the Zhennan Palace.
Qin Yuan, the third master of the Qin family, married the sister of the current king of Zhennan, Xiao Meishu, the lord of Danyang.
Who would dare to rob the fiancΓ© of the only concubine of such a family. Even if Qi Mingzhu is a royal princess, and even more so a noble princess, it can't be.
If it was the daughter of other nobles, in the face of such an impossible opponent as Qin Wanxiao, she might have retreated.
Who is Keqi Mingzhu. She never backed down on that in her life.
She wouldn't back down at all.
So, she was silent for a few years, and after Qin Wanxiao had married Lu Zhengxing and gave birth to three sons, and Lu Zhengxing had already thought that he was the Duke of Dingguo, and he did something that shocked the entire capital.
On the fiftieth birthday of the old man of the Qin family, the design lost his innocence in the Dingguo Gong Lu Zhengxing.
The Qin family was furious, and the Lu family was also furious, but when the eldest princess of the dynasty had lost her innocence to Lu Zhengxing, they had no choice but to agree to Qi Mingzhu marrying the Dingguo Mansion.
Emperor Yongjing was also very angry. In the face of this sister who doesn't know the height of the sky, I wish she had never existed. But when he turned his head and thought about it, Emperor Yongjing calmed down again. He also wanted to know the secrets of the Lu family and the inheritance of the Lu family. Perhaps Qi Mingzhu's marriage was an opportunity to know these secrets.
So, Qi Mingzhu married Lu Zhengxing as a flat wife in such a disgraceful way.
When the eldest princess of the court marries a prince as a flat wife, this is a very shameless thing for the royal family. And this matter has caused strong dissatisfaction between the Lu and Qin families, and Emperor Yongjing issued a holy decree at that time: after Qi Mingzhu married to the Dingguo Mansion, she could not exercise any of the privileges of the eldest princess, and took back the fief when she was the eldest princess, and always respected the Qin family, the wife of the Dingguo Princess.
In other words, Qi Mingzhu was just an ordinary daughter-in-law from the moment she entered the Dingguo Mansion, and she was nothing else.
Of course, in private, it is impossible for Empress Dowager Jiang to let her daughter suffer, and she has also made up a lot, and at any time she will receive a son and a daughter born to Qi Mingzhu to live in the palace. And the Lu family didn't say anything about it because those two were also the bloodline of the Lu family. This time, Lu Chenxi came back and didn't see the two sisters and brothers, also because they were taken into the palace by Empress Dowager Jiang before.
But the Lu family's attitude towards Qi Mingzhu was not so good. Because he didn't like this daughter-in-law who he pasted, he also knew the purpose of Emperor Yongjing. Mrs. Lin announced on the day Qi Mingzhu got married that she didn't have to go to Zhenhui Hall to greet her when Qi Mingzhu was fine, and she could not participate in the family dinner every five and ten o'clock.
The proud Qi Mingzhu grew up with gold and jade, and because the foundation of the Qi family was too thin and had no background, of course he didn't understand the deep meaning of Mrs. Tai's actions, and he was happy not to be a little low, so he rarely appeared in Zhenhui Hall.
