Chapter 66: The Wall of Brothers
Although Deng Chengzhai is indeed a very good candidate for a son-in-law, Yun Feng Huangxiao gave up after thinking about it.
After all, looking at Chunjia's meaning, he also agreed that Deng Chengzhai would marry a virtuous woman with a clean net worth and low background, so that he could use it more purely for his own use; Second, she has seen Deng Chengzhai, it is not so easy to control, Xie's lintel is low in the end, and there are many sisters in the family, and it seems that there is not enough to live in him, so even if he is reluctantly married, I am afraid the result will not be good, not to mention, it will not be of much help to Xie's family, to Yunfenghuang.
Then why do you have to pay a sister out?
Thinking about the establishment, Yun Fenghuang made love to Chunjia once, and while he had not yet fallen asleep, he euphemistically mentioned the flood: "Two days ago, the concubine asked someone to send some cakes to my brother and sister-in-law, and the people who went came back and said that the sisters-in-law are now worried about the flood. The concubine body is still strange, the sister-in-law is the same as the concubine body, born and raised in the north, but she has never seen a flood, how can she say that the head is the Tao, as if she has seen and heard it in person? After asking, I realized that the brothers had been rummaging through the classics for the past two days, and even the sisters-in-law knew a lot. ”
"Do you want your brothers to work under Ouyang?" Junjia asked lazily.
Yun Fenghuang leaned over and kissed him, and said with a smile: "The concubine just thinks that since the brothers have the heart to serve the country, why doesn't Your Majesty give them a chance to gain knowledge?" After all, Boss Ouyang is old, even if he is old and strong, how long can he run for the country? ”
Chunjia sighed, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, he said slowly: "Ming'er will call some young courtiers to ask." ”
Yun Fenghuang was a little apprehensive in her heart, although she sent someone to pass the message back after she got up with the idea, so that her brothers in the family could pay more attention to this aspect, but it was really hard to say whether she could pass the emperor's assessment.
After all, Xie Wuzheng, Xie Xiaoliu and others have talents, and looking at the world, even if they are just peers, they are not particularly outstanding.
The fact that we can have today is purely because of her sister.
I don't know how effective it is to sharpen the gun?
But at this point, it is not good to continue to help them say anything, so I can only secretly pray that they will be more angry.
The next day, she went to report the bad news to Concubine De, saying that Chunjia was still annoyed with herself because of this, and she really couldn't intercede: "Your Majesty had a few words with the palace, saying that he didn't make any decisions about Deng Yueting's marriage, is it for the harem to remember?" Bengong saw that His Majesty's face was really bad, and he really didn't dare to say it. ”
Concubine De was disappointed in her heart, she had fallen in love with Deng Chengzhai for her sister from the beginning, and felt that this person was really nothing bad except for his gloomy temperament.
And this gloom is also diluted a lot due to the emperor's reuse of him.
Who doesn't think that this Deng Chengzhai is a first-class young talent in the temple now, and the future is immeasurable?
Countless people beat their chests and didn't stuff their daughters to him earlier.
Concubine De is also one of them.
At this time, he was very stupid, barely covered it up, and thanked the concubine for his crimes.
Yun Fenghuang sent her away in a few words, and when she returned to the Huanhua Palace, she asked people to go to the Taichu Palace to star, the emperor was not available to play for the young courtiers at the court meeting, and out of consideration for young people, if the emperor and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military officials did not answer well, the impact would be too great, and maybe it would be bad for a talent who had passed five levels and cut six generals, and it must be after the court meeting, and he would take the time to assess it in private.
Sure enough, in the afternoon, Chen Jing came back to tell that the emperor had used some pastries after the dispersal of the dynasty, so he ordered someone to summon more than 20 young courtiers, all of whom were the taxis of the Enke of that year, scattered everywhere, and they were all summoned this time.
The children of the Xie clan and the Jiang clan are also among them.
In this assessment, only the wild goose was waiting on the side, and everyone else was sent out, and there were also armor guards the door, so outsiders could not know about it.
I only knew that after the end, the emperor was not in a bad mood, and immediately summoned people to draft an order, headed by Xie Wuzheng, and decided a total of five people, went to the south, and obeyed orders under Ouyang Yanran.
said that he was obedient, but in fact, he was tactfully telling Ouyang Yanran that these five are favored by me, and you have to take this opportunity to teach me a good student.
Among the five people, Yun Fenghuan's brother was only one Xie Wuzheng, so he specially asked the eldest princess of Sui'an to enter the palace under the banner of asking the empress dowager to say goodbye, and went to Xuanqing Palace to explain to Yun Fenghuang: "Your Majesty's question is very profound and tricky, and the thirteenth brother may be a rare saint, and he couldn't answer it for a while...... was preempted by the Yin family who was traveling with him this time. ”
Of course, Yun Fenghuang hoped for this kind of opportunity to give her compatriot Xie Xiaoliu, but she also knew that although Xie Xiaoliu was also diligent and hardworking since he was a child, and he had some talent, he was not the kind of genius in the world, even if the original qualifications seemed to be, where could the Xie family compare with the teachings and insights that the Yin family could give to his children?
To be honest, Chunjia doesn't release water, and if you take a real assessment, it is very surprising that Xie Wuzheng can be selected, and it is natural that Xie Xiaoliu and they were not selected.
So although he was disappointed, he didn't get angry, but instead asked Princess An to pass on a message, encouraging Xie Wuzheng to say a few words, let him do a good job, learn from Ouyang Yanran with his heart, and don't have to rush to fight for power and profit, anyway, he is in the palace, no one can take away his credit, take this opportunity to learn more things, and prepare for future promotion is serious.
But the next day, Xiao Chen immediately sent a post asking for a meeting, saying that there were 100,000 urgent matters that must be reported to Yun Fenghuan.
After taking the face, she began to complain about her husband with a handful of snot and tears: "...... The husband's preparation was indeed insufficient, so that he was asked by His Majesty twice in a row to open his mouth, and then he lost the opportunity. But mother, do you know? On that day, the horses answered like a stream, and even drew inferences from one another, and said that their brothers were stunned, even those children of high-born families were also sideways! Niangniang, do you say that the horse is doing personnel? If it weren't for you, he would be a country man, where would he come from? Niangniang doesn't mind that he is a brother in the next room, not a brother, and it took so much effort to pull him to be the royal dragon fast son-in-law, he is good! ”
"To be ungrateful is to follow your feet!"
"Even such a little thing has to be hidden, you say that in the future, you can still expect him to remember your kindness and carry us to the four rooms?"
"According to the courtiers, the colt is not of the same mind with us at all!!"
Yun Fenghuang frowned and said: "Bengong remembers that when the thirteenth brother and the twenty-first brother went to school together, the schoolwork seemed to be, and you also knew what Enke's ranking was at the beginning. This time, I heard that His Majesty didn't take special care of anyone, why did the twenty-first brother answer like a stream, but the thirteenth brother didn't know anything? Didn't you take the reminder of the palace to heart? ”
"How is that possible, sis!" Xiao Chen hurriedly said, "Niangniang is the brother-in-law of her husband, your orders, which time is not the most concerned about our four rooms?" After listening to the words conveyed by the mother, the husband has not even been to the concubine's room these days, and he has no hard work every day! Even on the eve of the Spring Festival, the husband did not have such hardships! But our family background is thin, and we will be able to find only a few classics, and many of the questions asked by Your Majesty have never thought of it! ”
Yun Fenghuang said: "How did the twenty-first brother answer?" ”
"So the courtiers think that the colt must be hiding his secrets!" Xiao Chen said hatefully, "Although they are all brothers of the same clan, he lives in the Eldest Princess's Mansion after he is still the master, and he travels back and forth to Gaomen, and the news he gets and the convenience he does is not comparable to us at all!" The mother didn't forget him at the beginning, why couldn't he share these classic records with his brothers in the family?! Niangniang, it's not the concubine who instigates the discord between the children of the Xie family, but the horse's move, why not forget the fish (quan) and cross the river and tear down the bridge? ! He is acting like this before he is in a high position, let alone in the future?! ”
It's no wonder that Xiao Chen's family is so angry, the Xie family's rise is all because of Yun Feng Huang, so as the fourth room from Yun Feng Huang, who doesn't feel that he deserves the most light?
As a result, Yun Fenghuang won the biggest profit for the family after becoming a favorite concubine: the position of a concubine.
Just because there was no marriageable man in the fourth room, it fell into the hands of the big house.
In Xiao Chen's view, the big house has inherited such a big affection, that is, it owes the four rooms a lot!
Therefore, the entire big room, especially Xie Wuzheng, should not forget the fourth room if there are any good things and good things!
As a result, Xie Wuzheng knew that the emperor personally assessed the future of the relationship, but he still deliberately hid his secrets, causing his husband to lose the election, but he became the leader, and even after this incident, he may be in the emperor's heart - this is proper is that he feels that his wings are stiff, and he doesn't want to pay attention to Sifang's grace to him!
How could Xiao Chen tolerate it?
Because her mother-in-law, Jiang, has been pressing the housekeeping of the big house, and she is the actual grave woman of the Xie family, Xiao Chen has always felt that the big house should naturally hold the fourth room where she is located.
Xie Wuzheng's move made her both angry and frightened, worried that if Xie Wuzheng really got rid of the four rooms, or even got rid of Yunfeng Huang, he would also win the emperor's favor and trust, then ...... Not to mention that the Xie family's big house will regain the status that the long house should have, the most important thing is that this opportunity is still given to them again and again by the daughter of the fourth room!
Doesn't it take a mouthful of blood to think about?
So Xiao Chen couldn't sleep all night, so he hurriedly ran over to remind Yun Fenghuan today.
Now looking at the four rooms, except for the concubine, no one can argue with Xie Wu for an explanation, right?
"This is going to be confronted by the horses." Yun Fenghuang listened to the anger in her heart, but this was just Xiao Chen's one-sided words, and she may not have been angry because her husband was defeated and her brother-in-law was among the best, so she didn't have a seizure on the spot, but calmed down and said calmly, "You go back." ”
"Niangniang, the concubine is really not a ......" Xiao Chen wanted to say more, but when he saw the Qing people behind the servant Yunfeng Huang shaking his head at him, he suddenly realized that this little sister-in-law had an idea since she was a child, and she didn't like others to make decisions for her, so she hurriedly stopped, and then retired after thanking her.
After she left, Yun Fenghuang took two deep breaths before holding back his anger and letting go: "Go and see if Your Majesty is still busy?" ”
After learning that Chunjia is quite convenient now, she cleaned up her appearance and went over, and asked to summon Xie Wuzheng to enter the palace for a while, "The concubine is a young brother, and it is the first time he goes out to do things, and the concubine is afraid that he will not be sensible, so I want to tell him a few words." ”
Chunjia didn't know what was going on within the Xie family at the moment, he had a very good impression of Xie Wuzheng after his personal assessment yesterday, and he also revealed a little bit at this moment, teasing the concubine for being too worried: "I see that Xie Wuzheng is very good, and the concubine has found a good horse for Sui'an, and he is really talented." It is even more rare to be young, not arrogant and arrogant, calm and humble. Although Xie is not in the temple, he is very good at raising children. The concubine is one, and Xie Wuzheng is also one. ”
Yun Fenghuan's heart sank when he heard this, but he couldn't be happy, just like Xiao Chen, she supported Xie Wuzheng for her own use, if Xie Wuzheng soared into the sky after gaining power and was no longer under her control, what was the difference between him and outsiders? So what else is she worried about him?
"Your Majesty, don't exalt him too much, otherwise, even if you are still a humble person, you will be praised too much, and you may have to be impetuous." She said quietly, "Besides, the concubine is also just in case...... Say yes! ”
As he spoke, he grabbed his sleeve and swayed it.
Chunjia has never cared much about this kind of thing, and deliberately embarrassed for a while, and enjoyed the coquettish flattery of the favorite concubine, so it was approved.
also reminded Yun Fenghuang that when Xie Wuzheng went far away, he cared more about Princess Xia Sui'an: "I heard that she is not in a good mood these days for the sake of her heirs. ”
"At the time of the summer, the concubine told her that this kind of thing could not be rushed, and besides, she and the concubine were still young, so there was no need to put her mind on this now." Yun Fenghuang was slightly stunned, and hurriedly cleared his mind, "It's only been a few months, why can't Your Highness think about it again?" Yesterday, His Royal Highness entered the palace to greet the Queen Mother, and went to the concubine, but the concubine didn't even see it! Fortunately, His Majesty reminded him, otherwise if His Highness is depressed because of this, how can it be good? ”
Chunjia said: "Someone talked to me, I don't know if it's true or not, in short, the elders of the horse are probably not in the imperial capital, you should be more careful." ”
This is not for him to say, Yun Fenghuan will definitely not let people talk about the Xie family's words about trying to pay off the golden branches and jade leaves but treating the eldest princess badly, and solemnly promised: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the concubine will definitely comfort Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and will not let Her Royal Highness the eldest princess continue to worry about the matter of the heir." ”
The next day, Xie Wuzheng received the news and was led to the Huanhua Palace, Yun Fenghuang cleared the scene early in the morning and waited for him, and after taking the face, he split his head and covered his face with a scolding, not mentioning the matter of the Son of Heaven's personal assessment, that is, he took the sorrow of the eldest princess of Sui'an for the heir and asked him this one that had reached the emperor's ears: "How did you guarantee the palace at the beginning?" Said that the lintel of our house, but if you can still be the master, that is the luck of inviting the sky, regardless of the appearance and temperament of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, how you treat you, you will be able to offer people up! As a result, now that the marriage is full, it has not been a full year, so the palace will be embarrassed and thrown in front of His Majesty!? ”
Xie Wuzheng hurriedly knelt down and argued: "Niangniang, who is framing the minister?" The minister has always cared for His Royal Highness, and he is happy with His Royal Highness, and so far he has been in and out of entertainment, and he is not allowed to get close to him! His Royal Highness has never said that he has any dissatisfaction with his ministers, this ...... Regarding the matter of the heir, the minister agreed with what Niangniang said earlier, not to mention that His Royal Highness - the status is noble, descending to the minister, the minister is grateful, and he said that our family, and categorically did not say that the bride urged the heir less than three years after entering the door. It's just that the minister first entered the eunuch field, and there was no elder guidance above, so it was inevitable that he would be extremely busy, and after persuading His Highness to go one or two times, seeing that His Highness didn't mention it again, His Highness didn't mind it, so he thought it was okay...... Perhaps this is misleading. ”
"It's just that this kind of thing, without verification, I will tell the emperor, I'm afraid that someone deliberately slandered and instigated discord!"
Saying that, he kowtowed, and begged Yun Fenghuan to help investigate thoroughly, not to let this hidden danger continue, so as not to delay his future, and also ruin Yun Fenghuan's impression in front of the emperor.
Yun Fenghuang frowned at him, and for a while he couldn't tell whether he really felt wronged or pretended?
After thinking for a while, she slowed down her tone and said: "Your Majesty, this palace has exonerated you early in the morning, but you must know that Your Majesty is wise, if you treat Your Highness only perfunctory, there is no impermeable wall in this world, this palace can accommodate you, and Your Majesty will never let you go!" ”
After a few words, Xie Wuzheng's attitude was sincere, and he swore that he would definitely have a deep relationship with the eldest princess of Sui'an, without any mustard, and there was no such thing as perfunctory golden branches and jade leaves...... Yun Fenghuan pinched his eyebrows, and got back to business: "The Son of Heaven assessed that you only care about yourself and don't care about your brother. ”
