Chapter 385: I'd rather become a monk
As for Tang Xin......
He knew what she had trained in Heifeng, so he knew that she must be a little more courageous than ordinary boudoir women. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 But even so, the fact that she looked at him so fearlessly was still beyond his expectations, which he had never expected.
Because if he didn't say anything else, it was rare to find a few people in this court who dared to look at him in such a bright light, which made him curious about Tang Xin.
"What?" The emperor's voice was flat, and there was no expression on his face.
"Your Majesty, you are grateful to your courtiers and aunts for their gifts, but there is one thing that the courtiers hope the emperor can accept." Tang Xin raised her head and said seriously: "The mother of the courtiers is most worried about the marriage of the courtiers before she dies, she is very worried that the courtiers will embark on the road of being an aunt like her, so even if she is about to die, she is very worried about the courtiers." So before he died, the courtiers promised their mother that they would not be concubines, and then they found a man who loved and loved themselves to marry. There is also an aunt, she has been in Wanhualou for such a long time, even if the courtiers don't want to admit it, but they also know in their hearts that even if their aunt is named the county lord, there will be many people gossiping about her aunt behind her back in the future. And my aunt is not young, and now she is about to reach the age of marriage. Even if many people come to the door to propose marriage because of the identity of the county lord, it is difficult to guarantee that they will mind their aunt's previous experience. Therefore, here today, the courtiers hope that the emperor can give the courtiers and aunts the right to choose their own family affairs, and no one will interfere with them. Of course, this naturally includes the emperor and the queen mother. ”
Tang Xin's words were a little rebellious, many people were a little dissatisfied in their hearts because of the canonization of the county lord before, and now they heard Tang Xin make such a request, and they looked at Tang Xin angrily one by one.
"Wanrou County Lord, this marriage event is naturally the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders, how can you make your own decisions? If everyone thinks about their own marriage like you, won't the whole week be messed up? The minister, who was speechless because of the emperor's rebuttal before, now pointed the finger at Tang Xin.
In his heart, Tang Xin is just a little girl who has not yet reached the end of her teens, and she is naturally incomparable with those of them who have been in the officialdom for a long time, so he can be said to be very confident that Tang Xin is speechless.
If Tang Xin was Tang Xin in the past, she might not really know how to answer, but now she is different, no matter what her vision is, how can she really be the little girl who was raised in the boudoir and did not know the world. So after the minister's words fell, Tang Xin was not in a hurry, but looked at the minister with a faint smile and said: "The courtiers naturally know that this marriage event is the words of the matchmaker of the parents, but the courtiers also know what it means to be a promise." Since the courtier's mother once promised the courtier's mother that she would find a husband who she loved and loved her equally, then the courtier's daughter would naturally keep her promise, could it be that the minister wanted the courtier's daughter to be a person who lied to her mother and did not keep her promises? ”
"What are you talking about?" The minister's face darkened a little: "Although the minister said that this marriage event was the order of his parents, he did not say that you would break your promise to your mother." ”
"Don't you think your words are a bit contradictory?" Tang Xinwan smiled: "Since the courtier promised her mother that she would definitely find someone she loved and then the other party would love her to marry, how could she obey the so-called parents' orders and concubines." If the courtiers obeyed the words of the matchmaker according to their parents, wouldn't they have broken their promise to their mother. ”
Tang Xin's words choked the man, but the other party was not a fuel-efficient lamp, so after being silent for a while, he looked at his face and said with a slight sarcasm: "Wanrou County Lord, please forgive the minister, today this is Lord Wen's case that was rehabilitated, so you will have this opportunity to stand here at this moment and enjoy the emperor's gift, and even put forward such rude conditions to the emperor." But if Lord Wen's case is not rehabilitated, you are still a little concubine in the Tang Mansion, and then your relatives will still need to obey your parents' orders. If so, how would you keep your promise to your mother? With all due respect, if that's the case, you probably wouldn't be able to do anything to resist. Since you were able to accept your parents' orders at that time, wouldn't it be a little pampered and arrogant to resist now? ”
The emperor's expression sitting on the dragon chair was still very calm, even Tang Xin couldn't understand what he was thinking, he could only say that the emperor's heart, the needle under the sea, was really unfathomable.
Shaking his head, the smile on Tang Xin's face became stronger: "This minister is really calculating, how do you know that if the situation is really as you say, I won't have any resistance and obediently obey the arrangement?" After a pause, Tang Xin's face was slightly cold and said, "Since you are not me, minister, please don't speculate on what I think at will." There are some things that you may not know, my father does not know, but when I left the capital and went to the frontier, I once said to my fourth uncle, General Tang Shen, who was stationed on the frontier with General Huang, that if I could not fulfill my promise to my mother and find someone who loved each other to marry, then I would become a nun and stay away from the world. ”
"Monks?" The man's face turned pale and black, and he was very strange anyway: "Lord Wanrou, are you making some fuss by doing this?" If you become a monk just because of a promise, this is a bit too child's play. ”
Tang Xin smiled lightly and shook his head: "In the eyes of adults, it may be just a promise, what's the big deal, you can't do that at all, what's the difference between doing that and being a fool?" Isn't everyone in life greedy for pleasure, and giving up themselves like this for a promise to the dead, adults should despise it in their hearts. After a pause, Tang Xin smiled and said: "Maybe in the hearts of adults, they will look down on courtiers very much, but in the hearts of courtiers, a promise is a promise." Since the courtier promised her mother's promise, the courtier will keep her promise even if she does everything she can. Don't say that you are just a monk, that is, you will give up the life of the courtier, and the courtiers will not blink an eye. ”
