158: A son of heaven and a courtier
Speaking of this, Liu Guangtong's face changed rarely, and he lowered his voice: "The people in the capital reported to me that the Queen Mother was seriously ill, and Your Majesty grounded Concubine Tan." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Cui Min is half-aware of the affairs in the court, and this kind of thing is naturally to consult Liu Guangtong.
When he heard it, he was a little confused, and he asked: "The Queen Mother is seriously ill, what does it have to do with Concubine Tan?" ”
Liu Guangtong glanced at him: "Originally, the Queen Mother just had a sudden attack on the old disease a few days ago, I have been in the palace for so many years, and I know more or less that the Queen Mother has heart palpitations, and this time the attack is not bad, but the hospital prescribed medicine, and after taking a few medicines, it is even worse." His Majesty Long Yan was furious and ordered a thorough investigation, and the Tai Hospital sealed the medicine slag, and later found out that Concubine Tan had done something in the Queen Mother's medicine, not poisoning, but only increasing the dose. For this matter, the Tan family has already connected three pleas. ”
Cui Min suddenly felt cold in his hands and feet, and suddenly remembered what his mother said, in February of the following year, his sister will marry Tan Changnian, but such a thing happened to the Tan family at this time.
"Didn't Your Majesty send it? Is it just a grounding? "How can Cui Min not be frightened? His hand was pinched on the small blue and white cup, and he was clearly still a little trembling, "If it was done by Concubine Tan, it would be possible to be executed, right?" ”
"It's strange here," Liu Guangtong was also a little puzzled, "Your Majesty's cooking of the harem has always been a thunderous means, you may not know that in the second year of Zhenning, the royal nobles fought for it. Pet., fed the princess medicine, causing the princess to have a high fever for days, and then His Majesty found out and buried her directly," he said and smacked his tongue, "Wang Gui's life is beautiful, there are so many women in the harem, she is considered top-notch." His Majesty was not relentless at all, and ordered her to be buried alive. ”
Cui Min suddenly became clever, and secretly said that His Majesty the Emperor is really a thunderous means.
Liu Guangtong saw his reaction, and didn't take it seriously, and continued: "But this time to Concubine Tan, his subordinates showed mercy, but they were grounded, and the Tan family was guilty of plea, and His Majesty also ignored it. ”
"Duke Liu has served in front of the emperor for many years......" Cui Min paused, frowned and asked him, "Do you think there is an inside story about this?" ”
Liu Guangtong sighed: "No wonder people say you are like a fox," he raised his eyebrows, "I don't believe it at all if there is no inside information, but I really don't know what it is." I've been away from the capital for two years, and it's good to be the first to know the news, do you still expect me to know everything? Even if it is Wang Fang, he may not be able to say why. ”
Before his words fell, seeing Cui Min's complicated expression, he shouted right, "I'll tell you, it's because your sister has a marriage contract with the Tan family, and I also know that you can't repent, just advise you, the matter of the marriage contract can be delayed, and the Tan family is now on the cusp, don't put your sister in it again, and implicate your family." ”
Cui Min felt moved for a while, and it was not good for Liu Guang to treat him well.
After Yan Jing's incident, Liu Guangtong didn't blame him, but worried about him because of the family's affairs.
Cui Min thought about it, and he had already gotten up and bowed deeply to Liu Guangtong respectfully.
Liu Guangtong waved his hand again and again: "Okay, okay, I'm not here to accept your gifts, but there is one, don't publicize these two things, there are too many ghosts, snakes and gods in your family, Yan Jing's matter is okay, this matter in the capital, if the news leaks, I will be finished." ”
"I still have this bit of proportion," Cui Min really couldn't laugh, so he nodded, "Naturally, I won't talk nonsense everywhere, only our head of the house knows it." ”
"Your sister ......" Liu Guangtong shook his head thinking about it, "She is a girl's family, she can't be anxious when she hears it, and it's easy to get confused when she's in a hurry, don't let her know, and it will affect me again." ”
When he said this, Cui Min was not annoyed, and responded with a sigh.
The two were speechless for a while, and after a cup of tea, Liu Guangtong sighed: "Your family, how can you marry a girl to the Tan family." ”
It's not a question, it's just a calm statement, like a lot of helplessness, and with some regret.
But Cui Min, who heard this, was shocked.
He hadn't thought about it before, because he knew that his grandmother wouldn't harm them, but Cui Yu's affairs and Xue Chengjiao's affairs were vivid.
Cui Min shook and bit his lip: "I also want to ask Liu Gongming to say, how about talking about the family?" What about our family? ”
Liu Guangtong heard something unbelievable, and looked at him in surprise: "Do you really not know, or are you pretending to be confused?" ”
Cui Min shook his head: "What do I know?" He asked rhetorically, and then said, "The Tan family is actually struggling, how much I know this, but after all, after so many years, and they are now at peace, didn't Concubine Tan give birth to a son?" Could it be that Your Majesty will still touch their family? ”
Liu Guangtong sighed: "I'll tell you the truth, in the eyes of the world, this marriage is your family's high climb to the Tan family, but in fact, it's all fart, what does the Tan family use to match your family?" ”
Speaking of Gao Pan, Cui Min really doesn't think that it's just a good match, but if you want to say that the Tan family is not worthy of their family, there is no way to talk about it.
"Liu Gong has always been quick to talk, if you have something to say, just say it."
"I didn't want to talk about these rights and wrongs before, anyway, the marriage is your own, I'm an outsider, it's my business?" Liu Guangtong touched his chin, "But since you asked today, I'll tell you about it." ”
Cui Min raised his eyebrows and made a teachable gesture.
Liu Guangtong continued: "The talker has its appearance, I don't need to say it, right? Even if Your Majesty has a big belly, it is impossible for them to hold heavy positions, why did Concubine Tan enter the palace for ten years and give birth to a son and a daughter to His Majesty, but she is only a concubine, you haven't thought about it? ”
Cui Minxin said I have nothing to do with this, but Liu Guangtong said it, and he only realized it later, if he was serious, Concubine Tan should have been promoted to the position of concubine a long time ago.
It's just that Cui Min didn't say anything, because Liu Guangtong was a little weird with this person, and he opened his mouth, so don't refute him, otherwise he won't tell you anything.
Liu Guangtong saw him pondering, and then said: "I know that your grandmother is the nephew of Empress Zhaozong Zhang, although she is not very close to the same sect, but Your Majesty is the grandson of Empress Zhang, and there is a cousin relationship here." Besides, I have long said that your family has been noble for generations, and you are a smart person, so you should know the truth that once a son of heaven is a courtier," he said and pouted, "It is an exception." ”
After finishing speaking, he raised his chin towards Cui Min.
Cui Min understood that this was to ask him to speak, so he thought about it: "Then what does Liu Gong mean that our family will be reused in the future?" ”
"Isn't that nonsense?" Liu Guangtong threw over with another roll of his eyes, "I also know Your Majesty, if you don't value your Cui family, he can't appoint you to be promoted by this household." (To be continued.) )
