Chapter 231: Princess Ruoxuan
Family affairs?
Princess Ruoxuan's relationship with the General's Mansion?
The king was stunned for a moment, looked down, and saw that it was a strange official who spoke. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info take a closer look, he is no stranger, it is Princess Dou's cousin brother, who just became a waiter in the Ministry of Rites a few days ago, called Shen Gang.
Princess Ruoxuan is the daughter of Princess Dou, and she is also the king's favorite princess.
Four years ago, the general Qi Zhao and his son Qi Yu came back from the border, and the major general at that time had just reached the weak crown and made great achievements. The king was overjoyed for a while, and in front of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, he set up a family affair for the young general and Princess Ruoxuan. Princess Ruoxuan was fashionable and young at the time, and now four years have passed, and it is about to be the year of peach and plum, which is the time to get married.
Yes, how could he forget such an important matter?
If it weren't for the reminder of the princess's uncle, he would have really delayed his daughter.
But why didn't this Princess Dou mention this? Princess Ruoxuan was still arguing about not marrying the young general a few years ago, and she wanted to sneak out of the palace for three days, but she didn't hear any rumors in the past two years, could it be that her mother and daughter also forgot?
"I ...... But four years later? The king asked again, apparently unable to remember.
"Exactly, four years later, this year. If the troops are sent to the west now, then the young general will come back to the spring of next year, and there have been many wars in recent years, and it is understandable that the king has forgotten, but it has delayed Her Royal Highness the Princess...... I'm afraid it's not good! Besides, the king said it first, and the minister thought that it was better to do it quickly. ”
"Not good!" Someone else stood up and said, "The king, the minister thinks that the state affairs are the first priority, and the country should be the priority, why can't the princess find a good opportunity to marry, you can wait until Wu Benjun returns to the court again, and the celebration banquet and the wedding banquet will be held together!" Isn't it the best of both worlds? ”
"But the king gave marriage first. The general has been concentrating on military affairs for many years, and I am afraid that he has forgotten about it, and Princess Dou and the princess should be ashamed to open their mouths if they don't mention it. The king can't ignore the past just because he doesn't mention it! ”
"The minister thinks that what Lord Shen said is reasonable......
"I think it's ......"
"I think it's ......"
There was a sudden uproar at the bottom, and I thought that the ministers would not dare to talk about the war against Qiao Guo, just like the worry of Fang Cai. But who knows, after the princess was proposed, it aroused the opinions among the ministers, and no one was silent anymore, arguing one by one.
The topic shifted from whether he could fight or marry the princess first...... It seems that they have agreed to send troops to Qiao Guo?
Just when the ministers were arguing, the king's eyes turned slightly, and he saw the Zuo Xiang who was standing in a corner and kept silent.
Suddenly, he had a plan, and his eyes lit up.
"I thought about it, but there was a way to get the best of both of them." The king raised his voice and calmed down the controversy below, "On September 18, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Hou Mansion are going to hold a family affair, and the eldest son of Murong and the eldest lady of the Zhao family tied the knot, and that day was a good day. Since the general and Zhao Chun are not here today, then I will make the decision and arrange the family affairs of the general's mansion and the princess on that day, double happiness is coming, and everyone loves Qing...... What do you think? ”
Lord Shen and the ministers stopped talking, although there were still people talking, but they had calmed down a lot.
Shen Gang is a relative of Princess Dou, so naturally his words and deeds are considered by Princess Dou and Princess Ruoxuan, and this matter is also reasonable, and he does not have any excessive requirements, so the king also agrees.
Moreover, Shen Gang has always been in discord with Zhao Chun and has political disagreements, and the general and Zhao Chun have nothing to say.
Having said that, the young general is also the most outstanding one among all the sons, although he has been fighting abroad all the year round, his character and talent are above Zhao Huayong and Murong Han's generation, there is such a good marriage, why not tie it?
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Shen Gang came down from the palace, and as soon as he walked down the long stairs, he bumped into his cousin, Princess Dou.
The early dynasty lasted for a long time, and what was discussed during it had already been spread out of the palace. After learning that it was about the princess, Princess Dou immediately left the palace and came to the Dawn Palace, where she waited early.
Although she is also a concubine, she can dress up relatively plainly, her appearance is light and beautiful, her fat powder is thinly dyed, her eyebrows and eyes are soft, and the palace clothes on her body are not very gorgeous, but more dignified and elegant.
"Tell me, what did the king say?" The two sisters and brothers walked slowly forward along the unoccupied palace road on one side.
"Niangniang doesn't have to worry, the king said that the princess's marriage and the Xiangfu's relatives are on the same day."
Hearing this, Princess Dou's expression changed, and she said hurriedly: "The king is really going to marry Xuan'er to the general's mansion?" ”
Shen Gang was stunned, stopped and asked her, "Isn't this good?" Besides, the king also has words first, why is the eldest sister reluctant? ”
"It's good that the king hasn't mentioned this matter all these years, but who knew that it was brought up by you today." Princess Dou was a little distressed, and said with a bitter face, "It's not that the young general is bad, but ...... It's that their father and son lead troops to the expedition all year round, in case something happens, how can you let Xuan'er alone? Besides, even if nothing happens, even if the perennial husband is not by his side, this is also the fate of a hard-working woman! My ......"
"Sister, sister!" Shen Gang interrupted her, and after understanding what she meant, she couldn't cry or laugh, and said seriously, "Why is my sister confused?" It's really unfounded! Since ancient times, the mandate of generals and military attaches has been to go out to fight and defend the territory, so that they can achieve fame! Most of the soldiers who died on the battlefield were pawns, and the generals were very few, and it would not happen to the major generals! According to my sister's point of view, then thousands of soldiers should not marry their own children......"
With that, he laughed twice, not impressed.
Princess Dou was already indecisive, and when she heard him say this at this moment, although she was still extremely uneasy, she had nothing to say.
As he was talking, a man suddenly crossed in front of him, blocking the way of the two of them.
"Cousin, you can't ignore Xuan'er's life and death for the sake of your own interests! I know that my cousin wants to get in touch with the general, but I'm also your nephew, it's my business, and you have to ask me before you act! ”
The words made Princess Dou and Shen Gang stunned, one was pale and the other was red, looking up at the person in front of him, speechless for a while.
The woman standing in front of her, dressed in a pomegranate red brocade dress, her skin was as white as snow, her eyes were like the moon, her slender willow eyebrows were slightly frowned, her pretty face was full of raging anger, her lips were tense, staring at her uncle and mother in front of her.
"Xuan'er, how do you speak, he is your uncle!" Princess Dou raised her eyebrows and shouted.
The woman in front of her didn't say a word, her chest fell together, and her anger did not subside.
"Your Highness the Princess." Shen Gang knew her temper and didn't care, but he was very puzzled and confused, "Uncle remembers that you like the young general very much, why did you suddenly change your hexagram?" ”
"That was a few years ago, and now I only treat him as an older brother! Besides, we haven't seen each other for two years, and now let me marry all at once, I ...... I don't want it! ”
Shen Gang frowned, speechless for a while.
However, Princess Dou stared at her daughter and looked at her suspiciously for a long time, "Xuan'er, you tell the truth to your mother, do you have a heart?" (To be continued.) )
