Chapter 254: Anger
In the second early dynasty, the emperor gave Princess Marlene to King Rui in the surprised look of the ministers, and asked Su Zhaoheng, Mrs. Lin and the generals to draw up a peace treaty within one day.
I can't wait to let the Tartar envoys sign and get out of now.
Princess Marlene was not included in the harem, and the peace talks that had been put on hold for a long time became very urgent.
No matter how the ministers looked at the emperor, they felt that there was a problem.
It's just that this kind of thought can only be guessed in their hearts, and none of them dare to question why the emperor suddenly changed the established things.
When the decree of marriage came, Princess Marlene thanked her expressionlessly, and then sat down in a daze without saying a word.
When the third prince of the Tartar Kingdom saw that his sister began to lose his mind again, he felt extremely uncomfortable, and couldn't help but say: "Marlene, if you are really wronged, you can tell your brother directly." Brother must find a way to call the shots for you! β
"Calling the shots? What do you do? Marlene looked up, a pair of deep eyes staring straight at him. It's a good thing that I married King Rui, I just ask my brother to pay more attention to what he says in the future, otherwise what's the use of me coming to this Dayong? β
His gaffe made the situation not very good, and the third prince was depressed and frustrated. "In the end, my brother is useless and hurts you."
Ma Lin pinched the holy decree hard, glanced at the palace maids who were waiting in the distance, and whispered in her hometown language: "As long as my brother returns to China and becomes the prince well, my sister will have a good life in Dayong." Lord Rui will be good to me. β
It was a very common sentence, but the third prince knew the deep meaning inside, and said yes with a vague expression, and left the palace after two more conversations.
Since last night, Marlene has been arranged to live here, saying that she wants to get married.
The third prince knew that this was deliberate by the emperor. In order to let them have less contact with Marlene, from when he saw his sister last night, he also understood that what his sister said was absolutely forced.
It's just that this is the emperor's territory, and he can't act recklessly anymore, and he has to endure it until he leaves Dayong safely.
Princess Marlene's brother and sister met for a short time, and naturally someone went to report to the queen's palace.
The queen is taking off the gold armor with filigree and gemstones, and goes to hug the little prince like a snow ball. "Let them see, and they won't see each other for a few days. Five days later is a good day. The emperor has asked the Ministry of Rites to prepare for Princess Marlene's entry into the palace. β
The palace maid watched the queen gently wipe the saliva of the little prince, bowed her head, and turned around and walked out of the hall.
She had to pass on the meaning of the queen's words over there, and don't stop the brother and sister in the Tartar country from seeing each other. This is a big deal that will hurt the mother.
King Rui did not leave the palace after the dispersal of the dynasty, but went to the queen mother.
The queen mother was closing her eyes and letting the little palace maid hammer her legs, until King Rui waved her hand after greeting her, and the palace people in the palace retreated with interest.
Only mother and son were left in the house. The Queen Mother sat up slowly, her eyes were a little sharp but couldn't hide her tiredness.
King Rui, who was still standing, knelt down directly.
The Queen Mother looked at him so fixedly for a long time. Finally sighed. "What's the use of kneeling in front of me, if you want to ask for sin, you should also find your royal brother."
"Queen Mother, my son really has no face to go to the royal brother, and the imperial brother is afraid that he doesn't want to see his son for a moment. The son went to make the royal brother even more blocked. King Rui hung his head, his shoulders collapsed, looking helpless and regretful.
"Then why are you so confused!" The Queen Mother thought of this headache. I can't help but blame my youngest son. "If you mess with a palace maid, it's better to say, you actually mess with someone from the palace that your imperial brother was supposed to receive from the palace! You... You're really... It's getting more and more confused! β
King Rui knew afterwards that he should have fallen into the way of a man.
He had no memory of the accident.
He did drink a lot last night. But it can't be outrageous to that kind of Cheng dΓΉ, knowing that the other party is Princess Marlene.
And the most powerful thing about that person is that even the imperial doctor didn't find out what medicine he was in, only said that his body was normal!
One qiΔ normal, these four words are bad for him!
Thinking of this, King Rui secretly gritted his teeth. "Mother, what happened last night was definitely not intentional by my son. How can a son be confused like that, you know your son best, Queen Mother! β
Clear about him?
The Queen Mother listened to his defense, and her expression was sudden for a while.
She also felt that she should know her youngest son very well, but when she thought that her youngest son had also done something to get involved with the minister's family, she felt that she didn't know anything at all!
The Queen Mother's expression changed several times, and her voice became cold. "I also hope that I am clear, when things come to this, your imperial brother can be regarded as saving your face, and he can bear his breath. He's got a good idea of yours! β
I didn t want to go forward and appease my mother in everything this time I will talk about it again the king of rui set off a wave in his heart and raised his head with panic on his face.
"Queen Mother, don't you even believe in your son?"
"It's not that the queen mother doesn't want to believe you, but it's that what you did was really chilling." The Queen Mother's head hurt faintly, and she reached out and rubbed it. "If you feel wronged about this, your brother won't be wronged? You think someone has harmed you, but where in this palace is there no guard, who can harm you so silently? β
King Rui was a little speechless.
This is also something he can't figure out, and it's something he hasn't verified.
Looking at the little son who hung his head again and looked stunned, the Queen Mother was still distressed.
The two brothers only got together not long ago, and now that they are making such a fuss, how can the emperor not have a pimple in his heart.
If the emperor finally thinks about it and can't swallow this breath, gives King Rui a fief and moves out of the capital, then the brother will really have a share in two days.
The palms and backs of her hands are full of meat, and she can't bear to let her youngest son really suffer, so she would rather he abide by more rules in Beijing than let him go far away.
"Your royal brother is still angry, you don't run to the palace these days, and then you will have to go to the palace three days later, and in five days you will welcome Princess Namarin into the mansion, and you will come to your imperial brother to give you leave. Let's wait until after the marriage. β
King Rui raised his head again when he heard this, and wanted to say something, but the Queen Mother glanced at him with a stern expression. "Listen to me, will the queen mother hurt you? Your royal brother still has me, can I really watch your brothers discord! β
King Rui had no choice but to respond, and when he saw the Queen Mother's expression, he was not interested in speaking. Honestly retired.
As soon as he came out of the Queen Mother's Cining Palace, the last bit of warmth in King Rui's eyes also faded.
Who did it, so cautious that it makes people chill from the bottom of their hearts.
The palace is not as impregnable as he thinks, and there are still people who can get into the loophole and set such a trap.
King Rui has thought about it for a long time since the accident, guessed that it was the old fox of the Lin family, and thought that it was the Su family. And King Ning.
But he really couldn't tell who did it.
But it doesn't matter who does it. After this incident, he has to redefine these three groups of people.
Even the barrier that he has never breached, someone broke through one step ahead of him, and there was no trace of calculating him. It's terrifying!
He disagreed with many of the Queen Mother's words, and there was one sentence that he had to agree.
It's better for him to go out of the palace less, this time it's Princess Marlene, so what about next time?!
I'm afraid this kind of thing can be avoided if he doesn't take precautions. One qiΔ has to be more cautious.
I don't know how Cao Muzhi talked with the commander of the Five Cities Guard Battalion, if there is something wrong with him here. I'm afraid that I will be relegated to a fiefdom.
Then all his efforts would be in vain.
The hateful guards in the deep palace are all those who are so-called loyal to the monarch.
The Chen family, the Song family, and the Ming family, these are hard bones that you don't have to think about gnawing at all, otherwise how could he have pressed it so far!
King Rui left the palace in a puffuous manner, preparing to go to the yamen in the next few days. Just stay in the palace honestly.
But before the thought was made, I thought of my wife's gloomy face this morning, and thought that I had to deal with her first when I got home. Another nameless fire broke out, and the coachman went straight to an elegant place of pleasure.
He really doesn't want to deal with anyone right now!
***
Emperor Chrysostom commanded. The old lady Lin was so busy that the old lady and the others could be said to be on their backs, but the treaty was drafted in the afternoon of the same day, but it was called back and revised again. The conditions were not reduced or added according to the emperor's wishes.
A few people knew what was going to happen when they made the changes.
Sure enough, when the envoy of the Tatar state was formally interviewed that day, the two sides quarreled again over the treaty.
But the emperor didn't let go, what could they do as courtiers, they could only stand up to their scalps.
In the end, it was a happy parting.
After the envoys of the Tartar State left, the emperor just snorted coldly, and left without half an explanation.
Seeing this, Old Lady Lin sighed in her heart, knowing that the emperor's breath in his heart had not gone down, and he deliberately tossed the envoys of the Tartar State to play. It's just that I pity his old arms and legs.
Tired and returned to the Lin Mansion, and saw Lin Hongzhi again, the old lady Lin only rested for nearly three watches, and entered the palace early the next day to continue grinding.
For four days in a row, the envoys of the Tartar State were exhausted by the grinding, and the old lady Lin and the others were not comfortable, but the Tartar State was still unwilling to take a step back. In the end, the emperor felt that it was almost enough, and lowered a few of the tributes back to the original agreement.
The Tatar envoys and their three princes muttered for a while, but without saying a word, they immediately agreed and signed.
The emperor also stamped the big seal, and sneered and said that Princess Marlene would marry King Rui tomorrow, and asked them to all have a good drink.
The Tartar envoy's eyes are not eyes, and noses are not noses.
Old Lady Lin breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, they didn't dare to touch the emperor's mold again, and retired one after another.
It's a pity that Su Zhaoheng wanted to hide but couldn't, the emperor directly left him behind, and pulled him to drink without saying a word.
Su Zhaoheng was so miserable that he wanted to roll his eyes, thinking in his heart that the emperor was so sorry that they were courtiers, and they had been tossed for a few days, so it was good for him to rest for a while and take a breath.
Of course, Su Zhaoheng could only think, bitter in his heart, and drank cup after cup with the emperor respectfully on his face.
Han De was also afraid that this would hurt the emperor's dragon body, so he secretly invited someone to invite the queen to save the scene.
Su Zhaoheng finally left the palace after it was completely dark, returned home and fell asleep after a simple grooming.
On the day when King Rui got married, although he was marrying a side concubine, it was a princess of the Tatar Kingdom and his relatives, and the two countries had just signed a peace treaty, and the Ministry of Rites did not dare to do it only according to the side concubine's ceremony.
Eighty tables were set up that day, and the troupe also sang for a day.
Princess Rui had a cold face all day.
When King Rui married her, there were only a hundred tables, and the drama troupe was only one day, and today's concubine almost didn't cross her. How could she be happy.
In her heart, she hated King Rui's ability to mess with flowers and grass, even if she knew that King Rui had a big plan, no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't bear it. On the second day after Princess Marlene entered the mansion, she returned to her parents' house early, and she didn't even let her serve tea.
Of course, King Rui also knew that Princess Rui was ruthless, and this was the first time she used her mother's family to suppress him
How to enter a woman in the front room of King Rui, she is generous and doesn't say much, and this time the princess of the Tartar Kingdom also touched her bottom line.
Thinking that he was coerced by a woman, King Rui was angry in his heart, but he had no way to ignore Princess Rui.
He still relies on Princess Rui's family for many things, that is, the money that raises those private soldiers every year is one-third from Princess Rui, not to mention that many properties in the house are also accumulated by Princess Rui's family.
Princess Rui is a capable woman, otherwise he really doesn't have that much determination to dare to fight against the one in the palace.
You have to know how much inconvenience there is as a prince staying in Beijing.
After thinking about it, King Rui endured his anger and went to pick up Princess Rui back on the same day, and dried Princess Marlene for another month.
It was rare for Princess Rui to be sour in one breath.
And the Tartar envoys were 'sent away' by the emperor as early as the second day of Princess Marlene's marriage, and they didn't even let Princess Marlene see her again.
The third prince of the Tartar Kingdom was half dead, and finally gritted his teeth and rode his horse to follow the mission out of Beijing.
The queen is sorry for this.
She originally thought that the third prince of the Tartar Kingdom would be closer to her sister-in-law, but she didn't want to see her in the palace that day, but when Marin left the palace, she only said a word of care, and she never saw it again.
It would be nice if the two of them saw each other more, so when the Queen Mother helped King Rui talk to the emperor, she unintentionally mentioned a few words, and the emperor's tone couldn't be dissipated too quickly.
It's a shame.
At the same time, the queen regretted that she also thought of King Ning, who allowed her to successfully drive away a strong rival and block the queen mother.
That's really a scheming person who can see her mind so thoroughly.
But what if he just sold such a favor to her?
She is not really stupid, although she hates the Queen Mother and the Li family, but she is not unclear who is the real threat to the emperor.
However, she accepted it easily, but she was not afraid that King Ning would use it as a handle.
King Ning is even more afraid that she will have to bite back!
Unless it is in the worst situation, King Ning is really reversed, and he succeeds, he dares to tell the matter generously. But at that time, what if she said it, she couldn't escape death, so why was she afraid?!
Because of King Rui's mistake, Princess Rui didn't have time to pay attention to Lin Guanying, and Lin Guanying returned to Lin's house to live.
Lin Guanying, who has become the righteous daughter of King Rui, seems to have a much straighter waist, but there are some things in the family that have no intention of sounding. (To be continued.) )
