Chapter 23: The Prince's Poisonous Plan
After the dispersal of the dynasty, Liu Wen and Yang Guang tacitly exchanged glances, and then returned to Changping Palace with Qiu Rui.
During this time, he learned more and more from Yang Guang, so he transferred all the cloth, gold and silver to his aunt.
Anyway, I made a lot of money in Nanchen's treasure house, and I don't care about this star.
The old couple resigned again and again.
Liu Wen resolutely refused to let it, and made it clear that he had a huge family in Hanzhong and was not short of money.
In fact, deep in Liu Wen's heart, he is also very grateful to his aunt and uncle.
After all, without the help of the old couple, and without Qiu Rui's recommendation, Liu Wen would not have been able to make such a great contribution even if he had great ability, and maybe he would have gathered in the mountains and forests with Shan Xiongxin now.
The old couple couldn't refuse, so they could only accept it.
"So be it." Princess Changping said: "I will be the master, and I will divide a part of this reward and send it to your aunt in Licheng to help them." Take out another part and hire you in the world......"
Hearing her say this, Liu Wen's face was hot.
The old couple looked at each other and smiled.
It seems that King Jin has said everything.
Princess Changping has already met Xiao Meiniang. First, she can trust Concubine Xiao's character, and secondly, Xiao Meiniang is very good at figuring out people's minds, and her knowledge at that time made the old princess like it more and more.
……
Yang Guang is also very eager to complete this marriage, and he can't wait for Liu Wen to worship Xiao Meiniang immediately.
But others are not stupid.
Although the crown prince Yang Yong is weak, he is not without scheming.
Especially listening to Gao Gong say that Liu Wen and Yang Guang have a close relationship, and he can't wait to separate the two immediately.
At this time, Wu Kui, who was in Beiping Mansion, sent someone to deliver the news, saying that Luo Yi, the king of Beiping, wanted to rebel.
If you want to rebel, you don't rebel, and if you don't rebel, you can't send troops to deal with him openly.
Yang Yong suddenly came up with an idea:
'This Luo Yi is strong in martial arts, and he is also very good at using soldiers, so he is a very difficult and powerful character. Otherwise, it would be impossible for his father to agree to his conditions of Yongzhen Yanbei, self-dictatorship in life and death, hereditary replacement, and listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement. If Liu Wen is sent into that whirlpool, and then provokes their contradictions, Liu Wen will have no reason to live. ’
But if I directly propose to let him go to Beiping, Amand will definitely come out to oppose it, and my father seems to like Liu Wen very much...... He had to make his father hate him......
Yang Yong pondered for most of the hour, and finally came up with a poisonous plan, so he sent his officials to carry it out......
……
It is said that Queen Dugu almost killed Wei Chizhen with a stick back then, and after she lost her anger, she also realized that she was a little too much, and she looked at Yang Jian too closely, and sooner or later there would be problems.
So she decided to turn a blind eye to Yang Jian in the future, as long as Yang Jian was not too excessive, then pretend that she didn't know anything.
However, this Wei Chizhen is too beautiful, and if she stays by Yang Jian's side, she will become her enemy sooner or later.
Didn't Yang Jian say that he had nothing to do with her?
Well, I blamed her for it.
Queen Dugu's methods are not comparable to ordinary women.
After she made up her mind, she personally apologized to Wei Chizhen, and then spread a post to the nobles in the court, held a very grand ceremony, and officially recognized Wei Chizhen as her goddaughter.
Yang Jian was dumbfounded.
If he wants to be a Ming Jun, Wei Chizhen can't touch it in his life.
But the most unlucky one is Yu Chizhen.
In the past, she was a palace maid, except for marrying the emperor and the prince, she could only die alone.
Now that she has become the queen's goddaughter, it is impossible to marry the emperor and the prince, and the dignitaries in Beijing all know about her and the emperor, even if nothing happens, after all, he is the woman that the emperor once coveted, who dares to marry?
In this way, Wei Chizhen is over 20 years old, and she is about to become the oldest leftover girl of this era, but no one dares to care.
The poisonous plan that Yang Yong thought of was to send someone to persuade Queen Dugu to marry Yu Chizhen to Liu Wen, who had meritorious service to Ping Chen, and then he took advantage of Yang Jian's discomfort to send Liu Wen to Beiping Mansion.
When the time comes, Yang Jian will naturally send Liu Wen to a dead end because of the disgust in his heart.
……
Yang Yong's strategy was successful.
Over the years, Queen Dugu also felt a little sorry for Yu Chizhen, and because of Yu Chizhen's existence, she and Yang Jian often had a little conflict.
She had also thought about marrying Yu Chizhen before, but no one dared to marry her.
This time, Queen Dugu directly made her own decisions and officially married Wei Chizhen to Liu Wen, who had meritorious service to Ping Chen.
The king and princess of Changping were dumbfounded after receiving the will.
Liu Wen and Xiao Meiniang have officially decided to marry, and when it comes to the auspicious day of the zodiac in May, they can officially worship heaven and earth, why did the queen give marriage again?
And it was given to this captain Chi Zhen......
If it was someone else, he could only admit it for fear of offending the queen, but Qiu Rui was an upright person, and it was also about his nephew's future bright future, he would not compromise and was ready to enter the palace to face the saint.
But it's not right to think about it.
Let the emperor know about this first, I'm afraid it will be bad for my nephew.
So he urged the princess: "Madam, hurry up!" Come with me to the Jin Palace, you and the princess of Jin will go to meet the queen, and I will go with the king of Jin to meet your majesty. ”
"Okay."
The old princess couldn't take care of it much, so she hurriedly asked the servant to set up the carriage and go out.
……
When Yang Guang and his wife heard the news, they also changed color, and hurriedly entered the palace with the king and wife of Changping in two ways.
Yang Guang and Qiu Rui won't mention it first.
said that Concubine Xiao and Princess Changping went to Queen Dugu and explained the reason for the matter, and Queen Dugu's face suddenly changed.
She was so angry.
How smart is Queen Dugu?
She was able to make Yang Jian afraid, and she was in power with Yang Jian, and the two were called the two saints. How many women with such means can be found in history?
As soon as Queen Dugu heard Concubine Xiao finish speaking, she understood that she might be being used.
Thinking of the person who proposed to him, as well as the marriage of the second son Yang Guang and Qiu Rui, Queen Dugu immediately locked on her eldest son Yang Yong.
'This is something that doesn't make it! Not to mention the arrogance and lasciviousness all day long, he can't tolerate a few of his own brothers, this time it's better, it's all calculated on my head! ’
Although he understands what is going on, the ugliness of the family must not be publicized, and in front of the courtiers, he has to maintain the face of Prince Yang Yong.
Therefore, Queen Dugu can only bear this mistake by herself, and then educate her son when there are no outsiders.
Queen Dugu said to Princess Changping with an apologetic face: "It's all because this godgranddaughter is too old and too anxious, so let's do it, since you have been officially hired, then let Zhen'er make a concubine for your nephew."
g) The concubine is good. ”
The so-called concubine is very different from ordinary concubines.
Concubinage is a kind of etiquette system that began to exist in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and the status of the sister or personal maid who marries with the woman is even higher than that of a good concubine. Not only does she have an official status, but she can even be qualified to attend banquets like a wife.
Of course, what kind of official has several concubines, this is all limited by law.
In addition to ten concubines, the prince can also have two concubines (similar to a flat wife, but the essence is still a concubine), and the concubines can obtain the five-rank seal, and the concubine is from the sixth-grade.
From then on, the officials below were treated gradually.
Liu Wen is a third-grade official, and his wife can get the same rank as him, and in addition, he can also accept six concubines, and the concubines have the treatment of seven grades.
However, not everyone can be a concubine.
The highest status among the concubines is the wife's own sisters and cousins, followed by cousins and sisters of the same clan, and then it can be the turn of the personal maid, but among the nobles, the maid does not have this blessing as a concubine.
The concubine is followed by the concubine.
It must be the daughter of a large family, or the daughter of an ordinary law-abiding person.
Between concubines, concubines and wives, they can be called sisters.
As for ordinary concubines, they have no formal official status, they are only a little higher than maids, and they can even be bought and sold.
Although Yu Chizhen is the godgranddaughter of Queen Dugu, after all, after all, she is a criminal minister, and her identity is not as good as Xiao Meiniang, so she can only be a concubine.
was able to become a concubine, and Queen Dugu also promoted her.
In fact, Queen Dugu is a very powerful jealous woman, she not only values Yang Jian closely, but also is very disgusted by the behavior of the prince and ministers taking concubines.
If it weren't for the fact that the crown prince Yang Yong let her fall into a trap and make a decree. She thought about protecting her son's face again, and it was impossible to allow Liu Wenna Wei Chizhen to be a concubine.
Princess Changping knew the situation of Yu Chizhen and the emperor, and was worried when she saw that Queen Dugu did not take back her fate.
And Concubine Xiao, whose wisdom is not under Queen Dugu, faintly felt a hint of conspiracy......
