Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Prince
It happened that someone came to report that the Marquis of Jingyang had instructed the prince of Zhenguo to have dinner with Zheng Sangong in the outer courtyard, and asked Xu Yuqin to accompany him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Feng Shi smiled: "Okay, I know, Yuqin, Haosheng entertains the prince and Zeming, you go quickly, don't be lazy." ”
Xu Yuqin said a few words, said goodbye, and after walking out of the hospital, Fang breathed a sigh of relief.
With the arrival of the New Year, the marriage of the Xu Zheng family was decided.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, the middle door of the Shu King's Mansion was opened, and the red makeup of ten miles ushered in the hostess of this magnificent mansion.
Lu Fangfei was wearing a gold and red embroidered gorse peony dress of the princess, wearing a purple and gold crown of Danyang Chaofeng, with a reserved smile on her face, stepping on the standard stride size, and walked into the gate of the Shu Palace.
The emperor and queen sat in the central hall and accepted the newlyweds.
Zheng Zeming poked Xu Yuqin with his elbow and said in a low voice, "Now that even Lu Fangfei is married, my sister is called the Shuangshu of the capital with her, don't let her wait too long." ”
Xu Yuqin could only smile bitterly.
Zheng Xu's marriage has been decided, the wedding date is in the middle of the year, and the time is in a hurry.
Zheng Zeming's meaning was to remind him to deal with the matter between him and Wei Yan quickly!
The recent atmosphere of Xufu is unusual, first of all, many famous flowers are newly planted under the window of Jinglan Garden; Then the columns, which had been newly painted a year ago, were painted again in bright red; There is a special person to measure the size of the windows and doors, as if to prepare to make new yarn cabinets and door curtains; The people carried new satin, porcelain ornaments, tables, chairs, wardrobes, and spittoon incense burners to the storeroom at the back of the courtyard......
Doing all kinds of things, Wei Yan knew in his heart that Xu Yuqin was going to marry a wife.
It wasn't her he was going to marry.
Unlike Xu Yuqin and Wei Yan's sorrows, the emperor in the imperial city was overjoyed. In just a few months, he eradicated the ministers who used to control the government and liked to oppose him, uprooted all the fine works hidden in the open or dark around him, and took back the most beloved third son King Lu, married the eleventh princess Qinghe, and married the granddaughter of the Taifu and the famous lady Lu Fangfei for the sixth son,...... What excites him the most is that today, good news came from Runan, after several months of tug-of-war, King Qing and Helian County fought back and forth, and finally wiped out the anti-thief "King Haiwen" and his followers. Helian County captured the "King of Haiwen" alive and killed tens of thousands of thieves at the foot of Yangcheng.
Yuwen was overjoyed and summoned the third and sixth sons. As the emperor's dragon body weakened day by day, the courtiers once again proposed to establish a prince. Yu Wenjin gave his two most outstanding sons a problem, "Who do you think is the most suitable candidate for the prince?" ”
Yu Wenli and Yu Wenwei looked at each other, this question, if you answer it well, you may be able to win the world. If you don't answer well, you will inevitably end up with a reputation of being eager for quick success and power, and even worse, you may annoy your father and suffer from suspicion.
Yu Wenwei lowered his head and muttered for a moment, before he could answer, when he heard a "poof" on his side, Yu Wenli knelt on the ground: "Father, the son thinks that the sixth brother is the best candidate for the prince!" As his father's only son-in-law, he has made many meritorious contributions; Over the years, he has accompanied his father and the emperor to fulfill his filial piety and serve diligently; Corporal Lixian, treat people kindly; Quick-witted, with the name of benevolence...... Erchen can't think of anyone more suitable to be this prince than him! ”
Yuwen Jin's face was expressionless, let alone commenting, he turned his face back and stared at Yu Wenwei, "Your third brother recommended you to be the prince, what do you think?" ”
Yu Wenwei restrained his surprised expression, smiled slightly, and knelt down to worship: "If the son proposes that the father and emperor elect the third brother, it is too hypocritical. The third brother has not been in Beijing for a long time, although he has made great contributions to quelling the chaos this time, he has not had much contact with the important ministers of the family in Beijing, and he has insufficient understanding of the disputes and personnel context of various factions. The mother of the third brother, Concubine Zhen, died of the crime of killing the monarch and plotting rebellion, although her name has been corrected, in the end, now that the middle palace is in power, there is no mistake or omission in the harem, and the third brother is elected, I am afraid that it will be uneven, this is the second. If you talk about the eldest brother, there is a second brother Yu Wenji, who is filial piety and kindness, and cannot avoid it. If you talk about meritocracy, there are five brothers Yu Wenmin, and five cars are rich, so you can't ignore their talents. Thirdly. ”
"So, what do you mean?" Yu Wenjin's wrinkled face couldn't see his emotions, "You are the most suitable candidate for the prince?" ”
At this time, the snow had not melted, the windows in the hall were not closed, but Yu Wenwei's head was covered with a layer of fine sweat, but he did not flinch, he raised his head and smiled, word by word, "The son is not talented, the benevolence is not as good as the second brother, the intelligence is not as good as the third brother, and the talent is not as good as the fifth brother, but if the son is the prince and occupies the throne, he can avoid fratricidal brotherhood in the heavenly family, and the ministers in the court and the middle of the court are fighting!" ”
Yu Wenjin's gaze stared at his face heavily, and the supreme majesty was so oppressive that people couldn't breathe.
Yu Wenwei still tilted his head, his courage faded little by little, turning into a trace of uneasiness......
He prepared for the worst in his heart, if his father wanted to make the third brother the prince, he would ask for release, so as not to let the third brother ascend the throne in the future, and every time he saw him, he would feel uncomfortable.
But when he saw the first person, he suddenly smiled and praised loudly, "Okay, third, you're not wrong, this kid is a little timid, and he is willing to take responsibility!" ”
Yu Wenli stood up with a smile: "Father, the sixth brother is unyielding, not timid, much stronger than those of us who are elder brothers." ”
Yu Wenwei looked at the father and son in front of him suspiciously, "Could it be that my father's move today is just to test me?" ”
Yu Wenjin said loudly: "Someone! Intended! (To be continued.) )
