Chapter 59

For Uncle Zhao's family to propose, the Lin family was surprised and surprised. The Zhao family is not only more than one level higher than the Li family, but Zhao Yang is also more handsome and responsible than that Li Gongzi, and it is at this juncture that the Lin family is grateful from the bottom of their hearts.

Uncle Zhao laughed and shouted: "Brother Lin, don't blame Brother Wei for coming to the door to propose to Xiao'er abruptly, right?" Lin Huaide took Lin Zihao and Lin Zimo out, and said with a smile: "How come?" Uncle is a distinguished guest that my family can't look forward to, please come in. The sons of both also saluted each other.

Lin Zimo no longer darkens his skin at home now, and as soon as he came out, the father and son of the Zhao family all took a breath, no wonder Prince Jing, who has always had a clear name, did not care about him for him. I thought that Lin Yu was beautiful enough, but I didn't expect Lin Zimo to grow like this--the country and the city.

How to say that the father and son have been mixed in the capital since childhood, and they are used to seeing big scenes, but they recovered in an instant when they lost their minds. Everyone sat down, and the matchmaker also went to Zhou's hospitality, Uncle Zhao said: "It's a bit abrupt to come today, but I think Brother Lin is also a happy person." Pointing at Zhao Yang: "My second son is now following me in the Xishan camp, and now he is a six-grade camp official, and he can be regarded as having a future, begging to marry a girl from your family, how about Brother Lin?" ”

Lin Huaide and his son both liked the straightforward Zhao family, not to mention such good conditions, so they sent a maid in to ask the old lady and others for their opinions, and came back and said: "The old lady said that she would listen to the old man and let the old man watch it." ”

Lin Huaide agreed as soon as he heard it, and immediately exchanged tokens with the Zhao family with a smile, and the family affairs of the Lin and Zhao families were settled.

Everyone in the room was happy, Lin Huaide ordered a banquet, invited the Zhao family father and son to eat before leaving, and entertained the matchmaker by the way. Uncle Zhao was not hypocritical, and immediately agreed. Just as they were about to sit down, Liu Langzhong and Ouyang Zhi came together, and the scene was even more lively.

Liu Langzhong has been busy all day since he gave the mother a caesarean section, and so has Ouyang Zhi, who has been assigned to the ministry as an errand boy through the relationship in the family, and is so busy that the affairs of the Lin family have passed for several days, and these two people know about it, and immediately put down the things in their hands and come over to take a look to show their support.

When the two of them saw Lin Zimo now, they were also surprised, but neither of them had any opinion on this matter, after all, it was a personal matter, and they were impatient with others, so they really didn't know why the world was making such a fuss.

Hearing that Zhao Lin's two families were married, the two of them immediately congratulated and said that they had caught up with a good thing, and a group of people were drunk and drunk, and Lin Zimo also let go of a lot of worries because of his little sister's appointment.

Besides, Zhu Rui was in a hurry, and it had been a few days, and the imperial brother and queen mother had not seen him. Until he heard that because of their affairs, Lin Yu was dismissed, Zhu Rui was really anxious, he knew that his family was important to Lin Zimo, and now his family was involved, Zimo was not sure how uncomfortable!

couldn't take care of it anymore, Zhu Rui directly broke into the upper study, the emperor's office, the emperor's younger brother went in, and the guards had no choice but to watch.

Emperor Longsheng looked at the younger brother kneeling in front of him with a headache, over the years, this only sibling brother has made great contributions to him, but he has never taken credit, and has been working diligently for the Han Dynasty, to say that the only person in this world who is at ease at present, except that he does not think about two people, even his prince is no exception. It's just that the most reassuring imperial brother gave him a big problem, and he had a head and tail with a man, and this man also made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, so he couldn't bear to be harsh. And the county lord of Nanping, who made trouble from it, is also the daughter of the old prince who has meritorious service in the country, so the emperor is also very troubled and has been avoiding this matter.

Zhu Rui touched his head to the ground: "Imperial Brother - Holy Lord, I officially ask the imperial brother today to issue an order to let Lin Zimo of the Lin family marry me." Emperor Longsheng couldn't believe his ears: "Imperial brother, do you know what you said?" Even commoners don't marry a man's wife, so does your dignified prince want to marry a man's wife? ”

Zhu Rui kowtowed: "Please also ask the royal brother to be fulfilled, now I also have two sons-in-law, don't worry about the heir, I just want to be accompanied by Zimo in my life." Emperor Longsheng hurriedly wanted to help him up: "What are you doing here?" Don't hurry up yet. Zhu Rui couldn't afford it: "Please do it with the imperial brother." ”

Looking at Zhu Rui's red forehead, Emperor Longsheng sighed: "You really want to do this?" "It's the first time this brother has been so persistent, it seems that Lin Zimo is not very charming!" It's" Emperor Longsheng tapped his fingers on the table: "Forget it, there is no law in the imperial court that prohibits people from marrying male wives, and those sons of the imperial history have something to say, I will block it for you." It's just that you have to do it yourself in the queen mother's place, and this brother can't help. ”

Zhu Rui was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "Thank you, brother, thank you, brother, I'll go and ask my mother to agree." Emperor Longsheng looked at his back in a hurry and shook his head: "I really don't know if it's right or wrong for you to do this, is it worth it for a man?" ”

Rushed to the Shouqing Palace where the Queen Mother lived, Zhu Rui was stopped again, and the little yellow door at the door bent down and said: "Lord, the Queen Mother has a will, and I don't see the prince, so you-" You can't break in here, Zhu Rui had to say: "You go and give me a message again, saying that I want to see you." The two little yellow doors couldn't, so they had to go in and make a report, and came back after a while and said, "Lord, the Queen Mother still refuses to see you today." ”

Zhu Rui almost fell to the ground, the queen mother was really not accommodating at all, but the matter has reached such a point, if it is not resolved, the Lin family will definitely find it difficult to gain a foothold in the capital, even if they return to the countryside, it will be difficult to raise their heads. With Lin Zimo's temper, Zhu Rui believes that even if he can save his life, I am afraid he will have to stay away, and he will never want to see him again in this life.

No longer hesitated, lifted his robe and knelt at the door of Shouqing Palace, bowed his head and said nothing. The old queen mother, who was sitting in the Shouqing Palace, heard the report from the palace people, and trembled with anger: "Let him kneel, I want to see how long he can kneel?" Really, for the sake of a man, the face of the royal family was disgraced. The palace maids and eunuchs who were waiting all lowered their heads and didn't dare to come out, if today's things couldn't be good, I don't know who would be unlucky.

The two small yellow doors at the door were very embarrassed, and one persuaded: "Lord Wang, on this cold day, you should get up first, otherwise you will be frozen." Zhu Rui waved his hand, still without saying a word. Another little yellow door was clever, and he was busy taking two cushions in the room next to him, stacking them together, and placing them under Zhu Rui's knees: "Lord Wang, it's too cold on the ground, you put this cushion under it." This Zhu Rui did not refuse, raised his knees and let him put it down, it was too cold on the ground, the weather in November, when the north wind blew, it was simply cold to the bone marrow, but if he gave in this time, then he and Lin Zimo would have no hope.

Zhu Rui knelt at the gate of Shouqing Palace before noon in the morning, and in the afternoon, the Queen Mother did not speak, and Zhu Rui did not get up, which made everyone in the palace panic. Emperor Longsheng, who stayed in the upper study, was also unable to sleep and eat, one was his mother, and the other was his imperial brother, and the two of them were more serious, which made things difficult to do.

In the evening, it gradually began to snow, and the fluttering snowflakes covered Zhu Rui's body in a blink of an eye, making him even more cold. In a hurry, plus fatigue, he has been very tired these days, and kneeling down for most of the day has made him even worse, and the things in front of him are a little blurry, so he shook his head vigorously and shook the exhaustion away.

The two little yellow doors are also anxious, on this snowy day, if the prince has a good one, they will not be able to escape punishment. Seeing that there was no one around, one of them hurriedly went back, brought a warm small hand stove, and quietly stuffed it into Zhu Rui's arms, the sudden warmth made Zhu Rui feel refreshed, and his stiff body warmed up a lot, and he couldn't help nodding at the two of them, which made the two of them very happy.

The fact that Prince Jing knelt outside the Shouqing Palace for a day has spread all over the palace and beyond. The ministers and the people have everything to say, some admire Prince Jing's trustworthiness and responsibility, some laugh at him for not knowing the severity, and so on. On the contrary, the women of Hecheng, whether they are married or not, all envy Lin Zimo, whether they are men or women, they can get such a loving lover, which is the luck that many women can't ask for.

By the time she was in charge of the lamp, the Queen Mother in the Shouqing Palace was already pale, Zhu Rui knelt outside and didn't eat, and she hadn't eaten inside for a day. I was angry that Zhu Rui didn't know what to do, and I felt sorry for him kneeling so stubbornly in the cold wind, but so far, it is difficult for his mother to step down.

Zhu Hui led Zhu Ze to stand next to the Queen Mother, with tears in his eyes. Zhu Ze is still young, he doesn't know what happened, he is already six years old, he knows some things, I heard that his father knelt outside the door for a long time, and the emperor's grandmother's gloomy face was also frightening, but thinking about the father outside the door, the little child plucked up his courage and led his younger brother to kneel down: "Imperial grandmother, your old man will forgive my father." The queen of heaven looked at the two children, Zhu Hui pleaded, and Zhu Ze put his fingers in his mouth, looking ignorant.

The Queen Mother sighed and pulled the two children up: "It's not that the imperial grandmother doesn't forgive your father, it's your father who has to marry you a male stepmother." Zhu Hui was puzzled: "Imperial grandmother, do men and women have to be so clearly distinguished?" Is it for my father's daughter-in-law, isn't it okay if he likes it himself? ”

The old queen mother sighed again for a while: "That's it, what can the world think of him?" Zhu Hui said: "As long as our family can afford our father, why should we care about outsiders?" The Queen Mother touched his head lovingly: "You are still young, you don't understand the things here, go and have dinner with your brother." Zhu Hui shook his head and stubbornly stayed by the Queen Mother's side.

Emperor Longsheng finally couldn't sit still, and led people straight to Shouqing Palace, saw the crumbling Zhu Rui, sighed, and under Zhu Rui's hopeful gaze, he flicked his sleeves and entered the palace.

The Queen Mother and Emperor Longsheng sat in the palace, and the mother was very silent. Half a day later, Emperor Longsheng said: "Queen Mother, forget it, if this continues, the emperor's brother will die." The Queen Mother sighed: "Am my son not distressed?" hated that man, hooked Haotian's soul away, and made him even ignore etiquette, righteousness and shame, and at this moment, the royal face was embarrassed. ”

Emperor Longsheng said: "Now at this time, the queen mother should stop complaining, it is useless to let Haotian have a good reputation." Zhu Hui, who was sitting on the concubine's floor and looking at his younger brother, looked at him hopefully: "Grandma Huang, you will become your father." The Queen Mother looked at him: "What if that man abuses you?" Zhu Hui clenched his small fists and said, "No, in case he is not good, I will protect my younger brother." ”

The Queen Mother sighed: "It's really wronged, since Hui'er's mother left, she has never set up a concubine, I didn't expect to marry a male concubine now, just let him be, I'm tired, you all go and rest." With that, he walked into the back hall.

Emperor Longsheng let out a sigh, and now this matter has come to an end, and he has finally followed the wish of the emperor's brother.
