5. Chapter 5
Changfang gave birth to a daughter, and the old man personally gave the name, or like the young masters in the family, the news spread all over the Xie Mansion in the blink of an eye. In the past, this matter would have been taken out and muttered for a while, but now, with such a miracle as carrying pearls ahead, the small matter of naming it is nothing.
After the initial shock, the old lady had already prepared for the old man's attitude, and when she knew about the name, she also ordered her to go down with great joy and prepare gifts for the newborn six girls.
After Chen woke up, he learned that he had given birth to a daughter, and he didn't want to be sad, and he listened to the extraordinary girl girl, and when she was born, she was holding a bead in her hand, which was so strange that she cried with joy.
Compared with Qizihu Courtyard, the second wife Sun's is much more subtle.
As the second wife of the Guogong Mansion, the Sun family has also seen a lot of storms, since the matter has been decided, it is impossible for her to contradict her father-in-law and mother-in-law, it is better to be more generous, in exchange for the favor of the elders.
After seeing his son and daughter again, he couldn't be at peace in the end.
She knows a little bit about her husband's thoughts, he wants to inherit the title of the Xie family, why doesn't he want to seek a better future for his son?
Now when it comes to the nobles of the high family, the first to bear the brunt is the Han family, the Wei family and the Xue family.
Although the Xie family's family is not bad, it is a pity that there have been no outstanding talents for several generations. The descendants are not good, and the family naturally does not have the scenery of the Xie family back then.
However, the old man is ambitious and always wants to reproduce the scenery of his ancestors, so he attaches great importance to his children and grandchildren.
He was so dissatisfied with the eldest young master before, just because Xie Yun was too willful, just because he lost face, he would not be far away to participate in the scientific examination. Even if that person doesn't come out, he is also lucky, and he will have children the most.
Xie Lingjiao is very smart, but fortunately, his body is weak, and even the imperial doctor bluntly said that if he recuperates in peace, he may be able to live to adulthood. With such a body, it is naturally impossible to be a talent. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, and secretly said that God has eyes.
But who knows, the previous one is not dead, and the big house has given birth to such a one.
Sun lay on the bed, thinking about the appearance of the bead over and over again, it was really beautiful, and he knew at a glance that this thing was rare in the world.
With such a girl, there is a lot more planning for the Xie family.
As long as it is operated properly, maybe the Xie family will be able to produce a queen......
This thought made her both happy and angry.
Happily, if Xie Lingzhu really has that luck, then the benefit will be the entire Xie family, and when the time comes, her husband and children will have an unlimited future.
What is not angry is, why is such a girl born in a big house, what kind of incense did the Chen family burn, and there is such good luck!
I was worried that Xie Yun suddenly opened up because of this daughter, and she was full of thoughts about competing with her husband.
Sun thought about it, and although he stayed up all night, he couldn't sleep, because when he closed his eyes, it was as if he saw the crystal beads like eggs, which was so wonderful and terrifying.
Eventually, she gritted her teeth and got up.
"Anyway, it's just a girl. There is no longer a concubine in the long house, but this is real and cannot be changed in a short time! ”
Only when she thinks of this can she feel a little happier in her heart.
A girl has to get married after all. Xie Lingjiao is sick again, and she won't live long, and she won't have to rely on her son and grandson at that time.
"Mama Qin, go, go, let's bring my brother and sister here, and say that we are going to see the sixth sister, they are all sisters-in-law, and they should go on a blind date."
Mama Qin answered and went out lightly.
Let's not talk about how much sour water bubbled in the hearts of the Sun and Liu families when they looked at their children, but they only said that outside the Xie Mansion, they were already boiling.
The Xie family had no intention of covering up this matter, the Xie family had a large population, and the stable woman who delivered the Chen family was invited by Xie Yun from outside. When he went out, he naturally couldn't help but talk about this strange thing, and when the person who heard the news came to inquire, the Xie family didn't deny it. All of a sudden, the Xie family got the news that they were born with a daughter who hid pearls, and flew out like wings.
In this era, the wisdom of the people is not opened, and many people believe in the gods and goddesses of heaven, but those who are born with miracles must always be hotly discussed.
The capital is important, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, such a strange thing is naturally inevitably taken out by someone and told the emperor and his old man to listen to it.
Emperor Xuning is over seventy years old, but he is still old and strong.
He was a cloth emperor, and he rebelled with the Niujiang bandits in his thirties. From a peasant to the founding emperor, he fought for more than 20 years, and he has been an emperor for nearly 20 years. Hearing that the purple guard came to report that the Xie family gave birth to a girl who was born with beads, I just thought that someone wanted to use the newborn to grandstand, so I was very disapproving.
"Xie Jingting is a person who doesn't have many talents, but he is quite down-to-earth, but unfortunately the sons he gave birth to are not successful, and none of them are of great use. I thought that Yingguofu was so self-aware and mediocre. Unexpectedly, he would be bold enough to dare to think of such a crooked and evil way. ”
What was born to hide the pearl, it must be the Xie family's secret operation, as for the purpose, you don't need to think about it to know which of his princes and grandsons.
Don't blame the emperor for thinking so, as a monarch, every concern is all imperial power, and suspicion and suspicion have almost become instinctive.
The old eunuch who had served him for many years also thought so, and also felt that the Xie family was restless.
But I heard the purple-clothed guard say: "Your Majesty, whether this matter is true or false remains to be verified, but rumors have already spread in the capital, and I am afraid that someone will make a big fuss about this vacancy." ”
The meaning of Ziyiwei is obvious, last year, the Toad River sent a big flood, flooded countless fertile fields, and tens of thousands of people died.
However, three years ago, the imperial court had already allocated silver taels to widen the river and raise the embankment, and spent so much silver, but it had no effect at all.
Now he was furious and ordered a thorough investigation, and in just half a year, he cut off three waves of heads.
For example, in the prison today, the fourth wave is being held.
The river corruption case was widely implicated, and Emperor Xuning strictly ordered a thorough investigation, which was already met with a lot of resistance. Later, he started to kill, which had already made the people in the court panic.
The Xie family has a natural daughter at this time, and someone must take the opportunity to make a fuss and ask him to give amnesty to the world in case it hurts the heavens.
But the more this is the case, the more angry Emperor Xuning becomes.
If you want to say that killing people hurts heaven and peace, he rebelled for more than 20 years, and this emperor has been the emperor for nearly 20 years, and there are thousands of killings, why haven't you seen God thunder and slash him?
It can be seen that those sub-literati have done dirty things, and they are greedy for life and afraid of death, so they pray for his forgiveness and mercy as the emperor.
Emperor Xuning expected it well, and as soon as Ziyi Wei left for a while, he heard the prime minister and Xue Ge Lao ask to see him one after another.
The emperor snorted coldly and let people in. After the two knelt down, they really looked overjoyed and congratulated him: "Congratulations to the saint, congratulations to the saint, the saint, the saint, great joy!" ”
Emperor Xu Ning asked with a smile: "I don't know why a few Aiqing said this?" What the hell am I happy about? ”
"Majesty, you don't know yet, just this morning, the heavens rained auspicious!" After Xue Ge finished speaking, he squeezed his eyebrows at Prime Minister Li Yu.
But I saw the old fox with his eyes down, standing there motionless and pretending to be dead.
He had no choice but to finish his words and said, "It's our Lord Xie of Yingguo, who just got a daughter in the family, and this daughter is very good, and she was born with a bead in her hand. The bead is said to be rare in the world, such a miracle, what else can it be if it is not auspicious? It can be seen that the heavens are very satisfied with your majesty, so he sent down auspicious rui to show his reward......"
"Well said!"
Xue Ge is preparing to make persistent efforts to convey his concept of tolerance and gentleness and benevolence to His Majesty. Who knew that before he finished speaking, he was interrupted, only to see that the reckless emperor was relieved, stroked his palm and said with a smile: "Since I ascended the throne, I have always been strict with the law and ruled by clean officials, and now the sky has sent auspicious rui to show praise, which shows that the sky deeply agrees with me." In this case, I will continue to work hard and continue to make unremitting efforts to achieve new results...... Speaking of this, I remembered that there should be a strict law on the redemption of people's land. ”
"This ...... Your Majesty, Your Majesty Xià...... "Xue Ge was about to cry, and he pulled the prime minister into the palace in a hurry, but not to let the emperor kill more people."
I didn't expect it to backfire, but it angered the emperor, if he really added a few more articles to the already strict Mintian Law, he would be drowned by the spittle of his colleagues when he went out of the palace gate.
So far, I can only pin my hopes on the prime minister.
Xue Ge Lao cried with a sad face, and looked at Prime Minister Li Cheng with a blank eye.
Naturally, the emperor also looked at the prime minister who was standing on the side.
Feeling the gaze of the two, I saw the famous old fox cough slowly and methodically, and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister was going to Tianxianglou to drink with a few old friends, and met Lord Xue on the way, Lord Xue said that he wanted to enter the palace to see His Majesty, but he didn't know the way, so he asked the old minister to help lead the way." Now that Lord Xue has seen His Majesty, the old minister should also retire. After speaking, he bowed and waited for the emperor to speak before leaving.
Xue Ge Lao listened to his words, and glared angrily. A finger pointed at him, and said angrily: "Okay, you shameless old thing, it is clear that you came here and said that there was a big incident in the Xie family, and it was necessary to tell His Majesty that he knew that the minister was the only one who ......."
"Ahem, didn't the adult finish the report just now, the old man doesn't rob the adult's credit, you see, isn't this a good thing!"
These two old guys, seeing that they can't move the emperor, may make things worse, so they simply don't do anything and play tricks in front of the emperor. Seeing that Emperor Xuning couldn't cry or laugh, he was speechless for a long time, and finally waved his hand and let them leave.
Ping An didn't understand: "What happened to the Prime Minister and Chen Ge today?" This kind of news that I don't know whether it's true or not, I dare to hand it over to His Majesty, and I'm not afraid that it will be found out when the time comes, the Xie family is actually cheating? ”
"These old foxes are very smart!" Emperor Xuning said with a smile: "If it is really found out that the Xie family is cheating, then these old things will definitely cry and grab the ground, say that they have been deceived, and finally be held accountable, all by the Xie family, and they will become victims instead." ”
"In this way, the Xie family was used as a gun this time......
While he was talking, he saw a woman dressed as a grandmother come in and bow down.
Knowing each other peacefully, he bowed to Emperor Xuning and withdrew.
Gong Ma knelt on the ground and said: "Your Majesty, the gray cloth detective has received the news, the Xie family has a daughter, and she was born to hide the pearl, so the matter is serious, the spy dared to return to His Majesty when he saw the bead with his own eyes, please show your Majesty." ”
Emperor Xuning was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Really? ”
"It's true, when the baby girl was born, there were our people in the delivery room."
"It's ...... Is! ”
Emperor Xuning slowly sat down on the dragon seat.
"Is there really such a miracle in this world?"
The palace mother was silent, she knew that the emperor was not asking her questions at all.
After a long time, I heard Emperor Xuning say: "Go down, after the Xie family, you should be strictly guarded." ”
Gong Mama retreated silently.
Emperor Xuning sat quietly for a while, and finally got up and walked towards the inner palace.
The matter of the Xie family is about to be known all over the city, but fortunately it is a girl...... In this case, as the mother of a country, it doesn't hurt for the queen to express it.
