Chapter 67
"Tanhualang is so young and romantic, I don't know if he already has a wife?"
As soon as King Yizhong asked this, there was a moment of silence in the hall.
This question seems to be very plain, but many people know in their hearts that the target of this sentence is the Jia family.
We have to start from the beginning.
King Yizhong has a concubine daughter, who is regarded as a pearl in the palm of his hand, and his favored Cheng dù is not as good as the concubines from the main room. If only he was spoiled, but that girl was also very favored by the saints.
It's actually a very strange thing.
Among the royal daughters, they are not valuable, and many of these golden and noble golden branches and jade leaves are used by the royal family as a tool to win over ministers to stabilize the imperial power, or to marry into a high family, to connect forces for their brothers—to put it bluntly, they are tools for marriage, the difference is only in how much they are worth, so generally speaking, the noble and favored Cheng dù of these girls do not depend on their own talents and intelligence, but on their parents and brothers.
Descendants, mothers, foreign influences, how many brothers there are, and whether there is capital to compete for directly determines the status of royal girls in the hearts of their fathers and grandfathers.
And the daughter of King Yizhong has nothing, her biological mother has a humble status, just an inconspicuous little palace maid in the former palace, and there is no foreign family who can handle it, because her biological mother died early, there is no brother, and even her birth is just the result of her father's drunkenness.
It stands to reason that the best ending for such a daughter is that when she grows up, she is married to someone by her mother-in-law, but no matter how bad her background is, she can't stand the good life of others, and she is almost exactly the same as the deceased Empress Yuan!
It is said that when the maid around the Empress Yuan saw her for the first time, she was shocked to think that the Empress Yuan had come back to life, and she directly called "Niangniang" on the ground!
Because of Xiao Xiangyuan, the saint loved this granddaughter very much, and at that time, King Yizhong was still the prince, so in order to please the saint, he also pampered this daughter, and even wanted the princess to keep her in her name as a concubine to raise.
At that time, the crown princess also had a concubine, and the baby had to look like something, but she was about to be robbed of the position of the eldest daughter by a lowly concubine halfway. And things are strange, the prince just let the concubine move to the princess a few days ago, and the concubine who had been living well without illness and disaster died for no reason, and the princess, who lost her beloved daughter, thought that it was this concubine who overcame her little daughter, and had a big fight with the prince, and the prince did not put the plan into practice out of guilt for his wife, so although the girl was favored, she was still a concubine.
Lin Ruhai didn't know the twists and turns behind the daughter of King Yizhong, but this did not prevent him from breaking out in a cold sweat - what is wrong with asking, but he has to ask if he has a wife, this is, what does it mean to get married?
So his answer was: "Lord Qiqi, although the student is not married, he already has a marriage contract. ”
Many dramas have acted in the story of the talented high school champion Tanhua marrying the princess and the county lord as his wife, which makes people really think about it, but Lin Tanhua, as a party concerned, said that when this matter may really fall on him, it is really not good at all!
He is a person who already has a marriage contract, if he regrets marrying again, wouldn't it be a ready-made Chen Shimei? Even if the daughter of King Yizhong is of royal blood and is more noble than the Jia family, when he was not a jinshi, the Jia family did not dislike his family and gave his daughter to him, could it be that once he won the championship, he would turn his face and deny people? Lin Ruhai thinks that he is not unbearable to that point.
Even if there is no marriage contract with the Jia family, Lin Ruhai doesn't want to have anything to do with King Yizhong, marrying the county lord sounds beautiful, but who knows what is inside, not to mention anything else, if you marry the royal daughter as a daughter-in-law, then when you are at home, will the daughter-in-law wait for the mother-in-law or the mother-in-law wait for the daughter-in-law? Moreover, because the previous dynasty had relatives interfering in politics, this dynasty has always been very strict in this regard, if he really marries the Yizhong Palace, his career can stop immediately.
What's more, King Yizhong's current identity is extremely delicate, and many old ministers in the court are dissatisfied with him, although he is a son-in-law, but he has committed rebellion, if it weren't for the pressure of the saint, King Yizhong also made a sincere repentance and didn't ask about the affairs of the court.
If King Yizhong had been in peace, it would be fine, but if he was still a wolf and his ambition was not dead・・・・・・ Lin Ruhai might be able to break out in a cold sweat just thinking about it.
King Yizhong's answer to Lin Ruhai was not surprising, many people knew that Lin Ruhai and the girl of the Jia family were married, if he dared to go back on his word at such a time, it would be the crime of deceiving the king: "Which family is it a marriage contract with?" ”
The answer is naturally the Jia family.
King Yizhong's eyes wandered on Jia Yu, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, the girl of the Jia family has the foresight and red vision of a gentleman, and she has a discerning eye for heroes. Lin Tanhua is the youngest Tanhualang since the founding of this dynasty, and he has made such achievements before he is weak, he is really young and promising, even the previous dynasty has never seen such an outstanding person. ”
Wenjun, Red Whisk?
If it weren't for the fact that this was in front of the saint and many ministers, Jia Yu would have been able to slash King Yizhong with his sword!
Comparing his sister to Wen Jun Hongfu, what do you mean by being loyal to the king? The matter of marriage, the words of the matchmaker of the parents, what is the matter with Jia Min himself?
It was at this time that Jia Yu realized that something was wrong.
Although he was reluctant to Jia Min and Lin Ruhai's marriage, he had no idea of withdrawing from the marriage after the marriage was decided, because once the marriage contract was decided, it was a sure thing, and there was no possibility of change, even if Jia Min died before marriage, her corpse would enter the door of the Lin family, so why did King Yizhong mention Lin Ruhai's marriage at this time?
If it wasn't Lin Ruhai's intention, he already had a great grasp!
Thinking of the latter possibility, Jia Yu's heart was cold, and he almost reflexively looked at his current king.
The saint was neither happy nor angry, calm and unwavering, and could not see what he was thinking—the holy will was impermanent, and the king's heart was unpredictable.
But it is this kind of calm that makes people panic even more, I don't know if it's a coincidence, Jia Yu suddenly remembered the matter of the former princess Xingyang.
In the previous dynasty, there was a champion in his twenties who was named on the gold list, but the champion was unfortunately seen by the emperor's beloved daughter Princess Xingyang when he entered the palace to thank him, and the princess who fell in love with the champion at first sight ignored the fact that the other party already had a wife and children, and vowed to marry each other, so he even did not hesitate to force each other to die, and finally the royal family ordered to give marriage in order to achieve the princess's wishes, and the champion was forced to break up with his wife and marry the princess under the persecution of the family, but after marriage, he couldn't stand the princess's domineering, and he ended up depressed at a young age.
Lin Ruhai's current situation looks very similar to that unlucky champion, the difference is that the princess has become the county lord - there are rumors that the saint wants to crown the concubine of King Yizhong as the county lord, but I don't know if it's true or false - what's even more unfortunate is that unlike the champion who is more than ten years behind the princess, his age is very, close, and close to that girl!
As I said earlier, King Yizhong's things have affected the family, so his daughter is not young now, but she has not yet decided on a family, there is no condition when she is in the imperial tomb, and no one dares to join in this excitement when she returns to the capital, and the king of Yizhong who is a low family doesn't look down on it・・・・・・・ dragging it around, and her daughter is going to be ten □ j, but men of the same age as her are basically married, and the stronger children can run all over the ground.
And at this time, a Lin Ruhai came out, young and promising, handsome, and similar in age, it couldn't be more suitable, and the most important thing is that if the matter is done, whether it is another marriage to Jia Min or what, the Jia family will lose face!
Therefore, after learning about Lin Ruhai and his relationship with the Jia family, King Yizhong deliberately went to the saint, and did not say anything else, only said that his daughter had seen Lin Ruhai and had a good impression ・・・・・・・・of the other party, she had a bad marriage, her years were ruined, and she couldn't bear to look at her as a father, etc., anyway, the focus was on the pity of her daughter, and how she could show her love and responsibility as a father.
Although I am very sorry for the loyal Jia family in doing this, but afterwards I can choose another good marriage for the girl of the Jia family and give a decree to marry - Jia Yu guessed that King Yizhong should have persuaded the saint in this way, so the saint would not say a word.
It's a long time to say, but it's only a matter of a moment, Jia Yu was about to speak, but Jia Daihua responded one step ahead of him: "The prince said that Enhou has a good eye for heroes, but it is too exalted to him, Lao Chen, the nephew of Lao Chen, knows best, he has that tendon character, the most honest and stupid, he has never known how to protect the family and defend the country loyally, where does he know the slightest bit of strategy and resourcefulness, let alone being a Bole minister." ”
These words not only directly pulled the topic from Jia Min to Jia Yu, but also alluded to the fact that King Yizhong was disloyal and unfilial in his previous incident, and King Yizhong was so angry that he secretly gritted his teeth, but he didn't dare to really do anything to destroy the image of the painstaking management - since he returned to Beijing, he has been making a painful appearance of changing his past wrongs, ignoring the affairs in the court, and finally let his suspicious father let go of his suspicions, but he can't be ruined here for a Jia family.
King Yizhong regretted that he was too impulsive, why did he bring it up in this hall? If he waited for the matter to pass and then took his daughter to beg his father, for the sake of the child who had been hurting for so many years, the father would definitely agree, and when the holy decree came, no matter how powerful the Jia family was, they would not be able to return to the sky, but now they are falling behind.
But ・・・・・・・・ looking at the faces of the two people in the Jia family, it was really uncomfortable!
Jia Daihua opened his mouth, he has followed the saint for many years, how can the saint have to give the old minister a face: "According to what you said, isn't it not graceful to know that Lin Tanhua is a thousand miles?" ”
Jia Daihua said with a smile: "Your Majesty, how can Enhou have such a big vision, it's good that he doesn't recognize Puyu as a stone." The marriage between Lin Tanhua and the Jia family was personally set by the minister's aunt and the old Duchess Rongguo, at that time Lin Tanhua was still a person, even the old minister could not imagine that Lin Tanhua had already come out of this place, which shows that the old Duchess is the Bole who really knows people. But in the final analysis, Lin Tanhua's achievements are the result of His Majesty's wise governance of the country, if it weren't for His Majesty's eloquent election of talents, how could Lin Tanhua be today. ”
As soon as he brought out the old Duchess of the country, King Yizhong knew that it was going to be bad - this thing was not done in the first place, and the saint would only acquiesce out of love for his granddaughter, but the old Duchess Rongguo was senior and respectful, and the saint was also courteous to her when Jia Daishan was there, coupled with Jia Daihua's attitude, the saint's determination would definitely be shaken.
Sure enough, after the saint groaned for a while, he said: "In this way, the old Duchess of the country is indeed a good vision, even if Bole knows thousands of horses by the roadside, Bian He knows and the clan is in the chaos of stones. ”
It's done!
Jia Yu didn't show it on his face, but he was greatly relieved in his heart, echoing Jia Daihua's words and saying things like the saint's grace to the world, promoting virtue and ability, anyway, everyone likes to listen to good words.
The marriage was set by Mrs. Tai, but if the saint is sober and remembers the credit of the Jia family, it will not be due to the righteous and loyal king, plus the hat of the grace of knowing that Jia Daihua deducted, even the royal family can't force people to be ungrateful, right?
However・・・・・・・ Jia Yu glanced at Lin Ruhai, remembering that there seemed to be another princess in the palace who had also reached the age of marriage, and suddenly felt a little ・・・・・・sympathy for this young and talented Tanhualang.
――The champion of the boy and the first to explore the flower or something.,It's really not so easy to do!
Without further ado, a few days after the turmoil caused by King Yizhong, the people in the palace brought a holy decree and gave ten horses of silk for use, two pieces of jade ruyi, two pieces of mutton fat jade and jade pendants, and some other things, almost at the same time, the eldest daughter of King Yizhong was given a marriage to a nobleman in Jingzhong who was high enough but had little real power.
Although King Yizhong didn't mention his daughter to the end, everyone who knew a little bit knew what was going on, and the palace gave something to the Jia family as a statement and a comfort; As for King Yizhong's daughter・・・・・・・・ well, if it is just based on her identity as a concubine, it can be regarded as a high climb if she can marry into that family.
The palace test was in April, and the wedding date of the Jia family and the Lin family was set in mid-May, at this time Jia Min's wedding dress was about to be completed, and the silk and other things given by the palace were not used to sew the wedding dress but were put into the dowry.
As the day of marriage approaches, Jia Min becomes more and more nervous, and Mrs. Tai is becoming more and more sticky, Jia Yu sometimes can't cry or laugh when he looks at it, but it doesn't matter if he thinks that he was no better when he got married.
On this day, Jia Yu came back from outside and brought a gift from Zhang Rui to Mrs. Tai to see Mrs. Tai, but halfway through, he saw Jia Min wandering on the side of the bamboo-shaded path.
Jia Yu thought at first that Jia Min was bored in the courtyard to relax, but when he walked in, he felt that something was wrong, Jia Min looked a little dazed, and his heart was heavy, and judging from the appearance of the maids and servants, she seemed to be waiting for him here.
And Jia Min's expression after seeing him also confirmed this, and Jia Yu was deeply surprised by this: "What is my sister doing here now?" The wind is a little cold, but don't catch a cold. ”
Jia Min opened her mouth, but she couldn't say anything, and finally mustered up her courage: "Min'er doesn't understand something, I want to ask my eldest brother, does my brother have time?" ”
Jia Yu originally wanted to laugh at her, but seeing that her sister's little face was faintly pale, she felt that something was wrong: "It's not a matter to talk here, there is a small pavilion in front, let's go there and sit and talk." ”
Jia Min nodded in agreement.
The pavilion that Jia Yu said is surrounded by water on all sides, so you don't have to worry about the wall being overheard, but it is a good place to talk. After the brother and sister got there, they sent people to watch from the shore, and Jia Yu said, "You don't look very good, but what's the trouble?" ”
Jia Min lowered his head and twisted the belt of his clothes: "It's not ・・・・・・ it's not a worry." ”
She glanced up at Jia Yu, and then quickly lowered her head, her face was first red, and then pale: "Min'er just wants to ask the eldest brother, the eldest brother ・・・・・・・・・ the eldest brother is a man, he is in a high position, and they all say that the man is romantic, has the eldest brother ever thought of ・・・・・・・ Qi people?" ”
