Chapter 209: The Decree of Marriage
As Lin Yunshui's canonization decree was announced to the world, everyone began to speculate whether the emperor was going to give Lin Yunshui to His Royal Highness Fengjiu who came to Yinglilai.
A few days later, after the emperor's marriage decree came down, it confirmed everyone's speculation - Lin Yunshui really wanted to marry Yingli for the peace between Da Zhou and Yingli.
Along with Lin Yunshui's marriage decree, there are also Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan, Ji Mingyue and Mo Chengyuan.
On the day the emperor's decree was issued, it happened that Xu Zigui had just been taken back to the Guogong Mansion by the Qin family.
Originally, Xu Zigui was still thinking about why the queen didn't even keep herself, so she readily agreed to let herself come back, and this time Xu Zigui knelt on the ground and listened to the words read out of the mouth of the little eunuch who was sent to announce the decree, and Xu Zigui was relieved.
The emperor finally gave her and Mo Ziyuan a marriage, and Xu Zigui was somewhat relieved. It's just that after the father-in-law at the table recited the holy decree, when Mrs. Xu wanted to leave the father-in-law at the table to drink tea, the father-in-law at the table refused with a smile
"The old slave still has to go to the princess's mansion to announce the decree, so he won't talk to the old lady here, and when the county lord and the prince get married on the other day, the old slave has to come to the princess's mansion to ask for a cup of happy wine to drink."
Hearing that the father-in-law at the table was going to the princess's mansion to announce the decree, Mrs. Xu was shocked, worried that the queen mother was really giving Ji Mingyue to Mo Ziyuan as a side concubine for the sake of Ji Mingyue's reputation, and quietly inquired about what the father-in-law was going to the princess's mansion to announce
Now Xu Zigui has become a rightful quasi-princess. The Weiguo Mansion has also become a future relative, how can the father-in-law not work hard to please him? As soon as Mrs. Xu asked, the father-in-law at the table didn't take a shelf, so he told Mrs. Xu about the marriage between Ji Mingyue and Mo Chengyuan.
"The emperor gave Ji Mingyue to the five princes?" Mrs. Xu and the father-in-law were gossiping in front, Xu Zigui followed behind him and raised his eyebrows, and asked Xu Ziyu quietly: "Did you have any news before?" ”
Xu Ziyu shook his head, looked at the father-in-law who was talking to Mrs. Xu in front of him, and said: "Before, the emperor canonized the princess of the Lin family, and I only became the emperor, so I wanted to marry Feng Chenqing together......"
Xu Ziyu frowned, in the past few days, Mo Ziyuan sent him to investigate the evidence that the King of Wei had gathered all the courtiers to seek power and usurp the throne. He does have a lot of evidence in his hands. also revealed some information to the secret guards cultivated by the emperor's side. The emperor also received some secret reports from those people, how could he dare to leave Ji Mingyue in the capital?
Xu Zigui raised his eyebrows, it seems that Ji Mingyue's status in the Queen Mother's heart is really not small, not only is her status not small, but Ji Mingyue's ability is not small. Otherwise, how could the Queen Mother see her true face clearly, but she was still reluctant to marry her far away?
Or, it is not known whether the eldest princess of Linhai has a lot of skills and tries to keep her daughter in the palace.
Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan's wedding date is in March next year. It's almost a year or so away. Mo Chengyuan and Ji Mingyue's marriage is similar to theirs. It's also in March next year, but it's just a few days in between. And Feng Jiuqing and Lin Yunshui's marriage was in a hurry, after the wedding of Mo Qingyuan and Zheng Jiaying ten days later.
This time the marriage is given. Except for Xu Zigui and Mo Ziyuan, who were expected by everyone, the other two pairs were beyond everyone's imagination.
Especially Feng Jiuqing reads;. After Ye Tinghu talked to Xu Zigui last time, he knew that Xu Zigui would definitely not return to Yingli with him. Although he was unwilling to miss just the time, he missed it with Xu Zigui so hard, but he also knew the truth of letting go when it was time to let go.
Zhufeng Jiuqing lost his thoughts about Xu Zigui. It doesn't matter if the emperor gives him a marriage. Thinking about marrying Ji Mingyue, it will also help him ascend the throne in the future. But he didn't want to, but the emperor only gave himself the daughter of a minister, and he was indeed a little angry in his heart, and he found the Heart Nourishing Hall with the holy decree.
"The emperor gave the daughter of the second-class marquis to the minister. Is it to look down on me Dayinglichao...... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”
Feng Jiuqing would be angry with the emperor, which had been expected a long time ago. Zhu had spoken to Mo Ziyuan before the decree was issued-"If you want me to agree to what you did last time, just wait for me to appease Feng Jiu after I marry this time."
The implication is that the emperor has kicked this rotten ball to Mo Ziyuan.
So. When Feng Jiuqing rushed into the Heart Cultivation Hall angrily despite the obstacles outside, he saw Mo Ziyuan, who was sitting in the position where the emperor should have been sitting
"How can you look down on the Great British Dynasty?" Mo Ziyuan saw Feng Jiuqing recently. got up from the chair and poured tea for Feng Jiuqing in person: "Although Miss Lin is the daughter of a second-class marquis, her character is no less than any princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty. What is there to dislike about His Highness Feng Jiu? ”
"She's so good, why don't you marry!"
Feng Jiuqing slapped the table, angry. Mo Ziyuan laughed treacherously
"Because Gu wants to marry the eldest daughter of the Weiguo Mansion"
Feng Jiuqing vomited blood, and when she saw Mo Ziyuan's smiling appearance, she wanted to scratch Mo Ziyuan's face: "I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have reported to you in the first place, so I let the queen mother catch me and the lord of Yunjin County......"
"How dare you"
Without waiting for Feng Jiuqing to finish speaking, Mo Ziyuan glanced at Feng Jiuqing lightly and interrupted Feng Jiuqing's words
Feng Jiuqing was still a little afraid of Mo Ziyuan, who was invisible, and seeing that Mo Ziyuan restrained the smile on his face, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so he had to hold his breath and sit on the chair next to him with a gloomy face.
Seeing that Feng Jiuqing's face was not good, Mo Ziyuan was afraid that he would really get angry with him, and then let Emperor Yingli think that it would be bad for them to treat his son badly.
Mo Ziyuan also sat down and said lightly: "No matter how long your arms are, there is a limit, even if your father gives you a daughter with real power in the family, there is no way to help you." ”
Although he was talking about business, Mo Ziyuan's tone was still careless.
Feng Jiuqing knew that this was the reason, and he just didn't get Xu Zigui and vented in disguise. Mo Ziyuan is also a man, so he naturally knows Feng Jiuqing's careful thoughts. It's just that you can't see through it
Seeing that Feng Jiuqing was sitting on the chair and didn't speak, Mo Ziyuan said again: "Since Gu promised to help you, he naturally did what he said." Besides, you helped Gu Jiang solve such a powerful opponent, even if it is repaid, Gu will help you ascend the throne and become the emperor."
What Feng Jiuqing wanted was Mo Ziyuan's promise, and when he got Mo Ziyuan's promise, he didn't make trouble anymore, but got up and clasped his fists with both hands and saluted Mo Ziyuan
"In this way, I will thank Prince Mo for his golden words first"
Mo Ziyuan nodded. Thinking of the incident of Yeting Lake last time, he said to Feng Jiuqing: "I haven't thanked you for the last time." ”
Although it was not for Feng Jiuqing to call Xu Zigui to Yeting Lake, there would not be so many things happening. But at that time, Feng Jiuqing, who was bent on getting Xu Zigui, first thought of acting separately from Xu Zigui when he saw someone spying on them, rather than taking the opportunity to calculate Xu Zigui. This alone was enough for Mo Ziyuan to thank him.
If Feng Jiuqing hadn't sent Xu Zigui back to Anle Palace in time and then went back to him, it is estimated that it would not be Lin Yunshui who went to make peace at this time, but Xu Zigui
Hearing Mo Ziyuan's thanks, a self-deprecating smile flashed in Feng Jiuqing's eyes. He did that just because he didn't want his beloved woman to be bound by the world, and his reputation would be ruined and he would never be able to raise his head again. But for his act of protecting the woman he loved, he asked another man to thank him. Isn't that ironic?
Seeing that Feng Jiuqing didn't speak again. Mo Ziyuan knew how much that Feng Jiuqing was feeling uncomfortable at this time, and waved his hand to let him go down first
Who knew that as soon as he raised his hand and didn't speak, Feng Jiuqing opened his mouth: "If you really accept the concubine's heart in the future." I just gave up the throne and rushed over from Yingli, and at that time, whether Gui'er wants to or not, I will forcibly pull her back to Yingli."
Mo Ziyuan nodded: "Lone will not give you this opportunity"
The tone is still as casual as before. Feng Jiuqing listened to it seriously. Only then did he nod reassuringly, arched his hand to Mo Ziyuan and retreated.
So. Feng Jiuqing and Lin Yunshui, a pair of mandarin ducks who were messed up by the emperor, accepted it so calmly. And the other pair of mandarin ducks who were messed up were making endless noise at home at this time.
"Mother! I don't want to marry the sixth child, I want to marry the prince! Prince! ”
"What do you look like!"
Ji Mingyue didn't know that King Wei was also in the house of the eldest princess of Linhai, so she took the order and went back to change her clothes, so Ji Mingyue ran to the house of the eldest princess of Linhai, thinking about making trouble with her mother. Perhaps my mother went to the emperor to ask for the revocation of the holy decree.
Who knows, when Ji Mingyue pushed the door in, she saw that her father was also there. Ji Mingyue is usually used to being so rude with her mother. The eldest princess of Linhai also doted on her and didn't say anything about her. It's just that King Wei is the most disciplined. On weekdays, Ji Mingyue also pretends to be more or less presentable in front of King Wei. Ji Mingyue came to find the eldest princess of Linhai to meet King Wei like this in such an unorthodox way. I really hate it in my heart, it's really unlucky, I can't stuff my teeth when I drink cold water!
"Lord Wang," saw King Wei's face. The eldest princess of Linhai hurriedly made a peacemaker to convince: "You also know that Sister Yue is thinking about marrying the prince. In order to marry the prince, he made a reputation, but this son was given to Xiaoliu, not to mention whether Sister Yue'er felt uncomfortable, only that Sister Yue'er's love for the prince was known all over the city, and Xiaoliu would definitely have a gap in her heart, and Sister Yue'er was now so forgivable, so the prince should not embarrass Sister Yue'er anymore."
As he spoke, he gave Ji Mingyue a look. Ji Mingyue comprehended and looked like she was about to cry
"It is said that marrying and obeying the husband, the sixth prince has a gap in his heart for his daughter, so he will naturally not treat his daughter well, Dad, my daughter is so pitiful"
"Then I can't blame others!" King Wei's beard was brushed one by one, and he glared at Ji Mingyue angrily: "This king is asking you to find a way to marry into the prince's mansion, it's good for you to say that your reputation has been ruined!" What a system! ”
After speaking, he blew his beard and glared at the eldest princess of Linhai: "How many defeats a loving mother has!" ”
After saying that, he got up and walked out.
After King Wei left, the eldest princess of Linhai pulled Ji Mingyue to her side and poked Ji Mingyue's forehead: "What are you anxious about!" You are left in Kyochu is not"
"It's not the same reads;!" Ji Mingyue was anxious, and took the hand of the eldest princess of Linhai, with a willful look on her face: "One is the crown princess and the other is the princess, and their status is very different."
"Mother knows that you want to be left," the eldest princess of Linhai poked Ji Mingyue's forehead: "What is the crown princess?" If you become a queen in the future, won't you still trample Xu Zigui under your feet? ”
"Queen?" Ji Mingyue was shocked: "Mother, you ......"
The eldest princess of Linhai interrupted Ji Mingyue's words with a silent look, and waved her hand at the people waiting in the house: "You all go down."
After the people waiting in the house went down, the eldest princess of Linhai said: "Now that the emperor is young and strong, although the crown prince is decided, who can guarantee that there will be no changes in the future?" ”
"Mother, what do you mean ......" Saying that, Ji Mingyue made a downward movement, frowned and asked, "Mother, do you mean to pull the prince off the horse?" ”
The eldest princess of Linhai snorted coldly: "If Mo Ziyuan is made the crown prince, there will only be one queen mother in the harem, won't it make her too free?" ”
After speaking, he added another sentence in his heart, "Besides, it is not certain that Da Zhou's surname Mo will still be surnamed Ji in the future." I just didn't say it.
Although the eldest princess of Linhai did not say the following words, Ji Mingyue also knew what the eldest princess of Linhai was thinking. Besides, she is also an ambitious person, and she also wants to learn from Wu Meiniang to become a generation of empresses.
So it doesn't matter who she marries, as long as she assists Mo Chengyuan well and does her good help, and after Mo Chengyuan clears all the obstacles, she will dispose of Mo Chengyuan, and she can still become a generation of empresses.
Therefore, whether she is married to Mo Ziyuan or Mo Chengyuan, fortunately, she finally doesn't have to go to get married, and her dream has not been shattered.
Thinking like this, Ji Mingyue was relieved. But he always looked down on Mo Chengyuan, who had been unknown
"What do you think are the chances of the Six Princes winning?"
Who knows, the eldest princess of Linhai smiled mysteriously at Ji Mingyue: "Wei Niang used to have a good friend in Beijing, and now she is married to an important minister in the court. The person she married was the person your imperial uncle relied on the most, and he held half of the talismans in his hand. As long as he has his support, he is not afraid that Xiaoliu will not be able to ascend the throne. ”
In fact, the eldest princess of Linhai is talking about the general Feng Ting of Jin Bei. The eldest princess of Linhai couldn't tell her daughter about her past with Feng Ting, so she had to replace it with her friend's husband. It's just that when she thinks of Feng Ting, the eldest princess of Linhai still feels as painful in her heart as if she has been scarred.
Ji Mingyue didn't notice the sadness that flashed in her mother's eyes, she only listened to her mother's words and felt relieved
"Then the mother has to find a way to catch up with your friend."
The eldest princess of Linhai reluctantly pulled out a smile and nodded: "Mother knows"
This time, Ji Mingyue found the forced smile of the eldest princess of Linhai, frowned and asked with concern, "Is my mother uncomfortable?" ”
The eldest princess of Linhai nodded, and smiled at Ji Mingyue as if soothingly: "Mother is a little tired, you go down first."
Ji Mingyue nodded, and told the eldest princess of Linhai a few more words, don't be too tired, and called the waiter beside the eldest princess of Linhai to come in before retreating.
In this way, Ji Mingyue can be regarded as resigned to accepting this marriage. And in the palace, Mo Chengyuan, who had just received the order, was also plotting something with Concubine De in Shoukang Palace. (To be continued)
