Chapter 65: The Promise of the Years
What do you want?
Minghui didn't know how to answer for a while, and from the bottom of her heart, of course she wanted revenge.
For this reason, she doesn't care about anything, her identity and even her life, as long as she can take revenge, she doesn't care.
The problem is that Chunjia has become a fledgling wing, and her foreign family Ji has been so prominent, isn't it that after this pro-government, it has disappeared in just a few years?
What's more, she is a spoiled golden branch and jade leaf with little scheming?
Intellectually, she knew very well that she would not be Junjia's opponent at all.
The wish to avenge the death of his mother is afraid that it will not be possible to realize it in this life.
But emotionally, as the Empress Dowager said, she forgot about these disturbances, descended to Yunxi according to the holy decree, and concentrated on living her own life from then on...... She couldn't do it either.
can only say that Chunjia is too ruthless, if the charges he found for Ji Sheng are just other crimes, Minghui is really not good, and he can use one death to accuse him of revenge for his kindness to Xiaozong, and for being mean and ruthless to orphans and widows.
However, Ji Sheng was deposed on the charge of murdering the concubine and leaving Xiaozong without an heir.
According to the current rule that fathers are more important than mothers, if Minghui dares to commit suicide for Ji Sheng, not only will the people of the world not think that there is anything wrong with Chunjia, but think that she is unfilial.
Think she's sorry for Hyojong.
So Minghui is in a lot of pain now, but there is nothing she can do.
She had pinned her hopes on the Empress Dowager and the Regent, but it was clear that these two abandoned their previous suspicions and joined forces, and they just reluctantly let Chunjia throw themselves into the trap.
I don't want to do anything to Junjia, but there is little hope.
Looking at her granddaughter's dazed appearance, the Empress Dowager was silent for a long time before she said, "If you really can't let go of your grievances...... There's a way. β
Seeing Minghui looking at herself suddenly, she said slowly, "But I can't tell you now, you were too naΓ―ve to be raised by Sheng'er, and the mourning family can't be sure if telling you will cause the news to leak." In this way, you go down first, and after a year, the mourners will see the changes in you, and then decide whether they want to talk to you or not. β
"How could a granddaughter leak such news?" Minghui was a little unwilling, and retorted in a low voice, "It's impossible for the granddaughter to ......die even if she dies."
"The leak is not necessarily intentional." The Empress Dowager interrupted her, "In short, if you are sincere, the left and right Sheng'er are gone, and Chunjia can endure for eight years before having a seizure in order to be pro-government, can't you even survive for a year?" Then what qualifications do you have to oppose him? β
Minghui was silent for a while, and after a while, he whispered, "Yes." β
After a pause, she asked tentatively, "How did you say that...... Can it really be done? β
The Empress Dowager did not answer this question directly, but said: "The Ji family has indeed been too proud and contemptuous in the past two years, so that Chunjia has an opportunity to take advantage of it...... But Ji will also learn a lesson. β
β¦β¦ Outsiders don't know about the conversation between the ancestors and grandchildren, and after hearing that Yaoyu Palace has quieted down, Concubine De also guessed with Yun Fenghuan: "Didn't you find that it's useless to make a fuss now, and you plan to accumulate your spirit and make a big fuss at the wedding?" β
"How could Your Majesty give her such an opportunity?" Yun Fenghuang said, "Whatever, anyway, the marriage date has been set, and when the day comes, whether she wants it or not, it will eventually decline." β
The two then discussed the topic of how much makeup to add, and Concubine De was quite envious and jealous: "Your Majesty has given extra courtesy to this golden branch and jade leaf, where can we be stingy?" My sister is about to empty out her family. β
"That's it." Yun Fenghuang persuaded her, "This descended Kunze County Lord, in the end, can't compare with the blood of the three filial piety sects. After that, it's our sons and daughters, and that's early. β
Concubine De said: "If it is Princess Zhaoqing, even if she searches the treasury to add makeup to her, my sister is willing to do so." However, the eldest princess Minghui does not have a harmonious relationship with us, even if she is given a needle, my sister feels a loss in her heart. β
"Where are we doing to make face for the eldest princess, it's just for Your Majesty." Yun Fenghuang said to her, "In that case, wouldn't it be better to go back and ask Your Majesty to make it back for you?" Bengong remembers that you still have a young sister who has also reached the year of marriage? When the time comes, when the good things are settled, you will ask Your Majesty to add makeup to your sister too, Your Majesty has always been generous, can you still agree? β
"Sister, that little sister, ......" Hearing this, Concubine De suddenly showed an indescribable expression, sighed long, and then said, "Sister doesn't know, my sister's young sister is very unhappy in marriage." Now...... Alas, I don't even know what to do? β
Yun Feng said in his heart, isn't this your Wei Clan's lack of greed? When the Empress Dowager was a matchmaker herself, she was worried about Dingzhao Wubo's care; After the flood, when I thought of Shou Ninghou, I was quickly set by Yin Qu for the second daughter. Although this story has not been clearly spread outside, she knows all about it, and it is estimated that almost everyone knows it.
So Concubine De's youngest sister has a temperament and doesn't say it, just say that this Wei family is like this, who would like it?
The concubine showed a look of concern on her face: "I remember that you mentioned this sister when you just entered the palace, you haven't said much in the past two years, and you thought that there was a candidate early in the morning, how could it not go well?" But for what reason? β
Since the elders of her family saw the wind and steered, Concubine De was really embarrassed to say it, so she had to say: "The elders of the family almost looked at her at first, but then for various reasons, she put it on hold. At this time, someone said another family, and he was about to decide, but he was robbed of his love...... I don't know what to do. β
Yun Fenghuang pretended not to know: "Huh? When did Deng Chengzhai decide to be pro? Haven't you heard of this palace? β
Concubine De was stunned and said, "Deng Chengzhai? β
After thinking about it carefully, she remembered that at the summer banquet back then, she mentioned to the concubine that she wanted to find a candidate for her younger sister's son-in-law, and her favorite was Deng Chengzhai.
ββ¦β¦ Deng Chengzhai is now the proud man of His Majesty, and the elders of the family are afraid that His Majesty will misunderstand, so they dare not talk about him, but they do not mention it. Concubine De paused and explained, "It's someone else." Because it didn't work out, but he didn't dare to say it, for fear that it wouldn't look good. β
She said that her heart moved, raised her eyes to look at Yun Fenghuan, and said earnestly, "But I don't know if my sister can ......?" β
Yun Fenghuang mentioned Deng Chengzhai in order to make her think about it, after all, Gong Xiangxiao had already married Yin Nuluo, Yin Qu was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and Wei wanted to rob him of his son-in-law, but he had to weigh it.
Don't be disappointed by the Wei family, and look back at the Gu family again.
So I still found another person to block the gun and took this Wei family's young daughter-in-law.
As for saying that Deng Chengzhai was not happy, or that Chunjia was impatient to tie Deng Chengzhai to Wei...... It doesn't matter, it's not that the son of Uncle Zhaowu's family can't marry a noble girl from a high family, the Wei family abandoned Shou Ninghou and chose the Gu family's son, which greatly increased their face.
Later, because of the flood, the use of troops against Wei Su was put on hold, and Wei Shi turned to think about Shou Ninghou, believing that Gu Shi was already a little unhappy.
Add another Deng Chengzhai, I don't believe that the Gu family will consider marrying the Wei family again......
Although this is not good for Concubine De's young sister, but this head is made by the Wei family herself, and Yun Fenghuan is not a sister-in-law, so she can't be thoughtful for her, right?
"Deng Chengzhai is one of His Majesty's companions, and it seems that he is also the closest one to His Majesty." She looked at Concubine De's surprised expression, and quietly excused herself, "Your family doesn't dare to mention his marriage, where is the palace to talk about?" After all, Grandmother Ling is the eldest princess. β
"My sister's grandmother said that she was the eldest princess, but she didn't get along much with Your Majesty, so where could she match her sister's dignity in front of Your Majesty?" Concubine De hurriedly said, "Besides, I just ask my sister to mention it, regardless of whether Your Majesty agrees or not, my sister and her family will miss my sister's good!" β
Wei learned the lesson of standing on the wrong team back then, and his actions in the past two years have been very much about betting and acting on cameras.
Deng Chengzhai is a companion of Chunjia, and he is a companion who plans to be pro-government together, young and handsome, and he is deeply satisfied, even if the official position is not very high now, but anyone with a discerning eye knows that if there is no accident, this person is afraid that he will not be a person who wants to pay homage to the prime minister in the future.
In view of this, countless high-ranking families were willing to stuff their carefully cultivated daughters into him.
It's just that Deng Chengzhai is Cui Wan's nephew, and there are several young ladies to be married in the Cui clan, all of whom are famous, not weaker than any of the ladies, but these cousins, Deng Chengzhai also declined, and the outside knew that this person wanted to be a pure minister, and he might not be willing to marry a noble girl, so he was disappointed, so he didn't mention it again.
Wei felt that although his daughter was excellent, she was not a demon queen of the country, and she might not have the ability to make Deng Chengzhai open up her future, so after hearing the news, she gave up.
Now that Yun Fenghuang mentioned it, Concubine De remembered that her young sister was indeed not a demon concubine of the country, but the sister of the concubine in front of her had the qualifications to charm the emperor and cause trouble to the world.
If the concubine is willing to help......
Can Deng Chengzhai really become his brother-in-law?
Concubine De quickly calculated in her heart, the reason why Deng Chengzhai refused to marry a noble girl from a high family was because he had an old relationship with the emperor, or the emperor's henchmen who could even discuss and entrust such things as pro-government, he was young and talented, even if he didn't marry with a high family, it was expected that he would rise to prominence.
Marrying a noble girl from a high family, in terms of his career, is just icing on the cake, and has no substantial benefits, but will be dragged into various positions because of the Yue family.
It is better to find a low-born but virtuous wife, maintain the nature of her lonely and pure minister, and be trusted and relied on by Chunjia.
But for Wei, if he can turn this young talent into a son-in-law, the benefits are many.
First of all, Deng Chengzhai itself is worthy of them to take out a concubine to recruit; Secondly, the Deng family from which Deng Chengzhai was born is in decline, but his uncle Cui Wan, even if his power is not as good as before, is also one of the important ministers after all.
In short, it's worth it.
Concubine De was so tired of Yun Fenghuan, begging and pestering, after a while, Yun Fenghuan said helplessly: "Look at your eyes, it's okay, go back to the palace and help you talk to Your Majesty, but I hope Your Majesty will not count down the palace." β
In the evening of this day, Chunjia came to the Huanhua Palace, and Yun Fenghuang was very committed to the marriage of the Wei family's young daughter when the two entered the dormitory to prepare for the placement: "Today, I talked to Concubine De about the eldest princess of Minghui, and I talked about Concubine De's sister, I remember that when the concubine first entered the palace, Concubine De mentioned that she wanted to tell her young sister a person, but just now the concubine remembered and asked, only to know that she has not been able to say it so far." β
"Don't listen to Concubine De." Chun Jia said disapprerovingly, "The Wei family has been thinking about this and that for the past two days, and everything that should be known knows it, how can it be that what he fancied two years ago has not been said so far?" Eighty percent of them later felt that there was a better one. β
Yun Fenghuang must be in his heart when he heard this, and it seems that the emperor's impression of the Wei clan is not very good, so there is a high probability that they will not be allowed to join the Dingbei Army?
"That's Concubine De's house, Concubine De only told the concubine about this." Yun Fenghuang said with a smile, "I just haven't dared to talk to you." β
Chunjia immediately guessed it and said, "Isn't it someone from my side?" β
Then he thought for a moment, "Isn't it Yueting?" β
Seeing Yun Feng's head, he sneered and said, "They have good eyesight." β
"The concubine said that she would mention it to you, but she didn't promise anything." Yun Fenghuang pushed two hundred and sixty-five, "It was also Concubine De who was here for a long time, in the end, it was a friendship from entering the palace, and the concubine was not good at refusing, so she could only promise to say something." β
Chunjia snorted: "You take me as a favor again." β
However, he didn't get angry when he heard the tone, but said, "He is in charge of the marriage of the Moon Court, and I will not overstep my responsibilities." It's useless for you to talk to me about this, it's better to let Wei go to the Moon Court to discuss it by himself. β
Yun Fenghuang smiled and asked, "Then will he agree?" β
"Of course not." Chun Jia snorted, "He doesn't even want to marry the Cui family's daughter, let alone the Wei family's daughter?" You tell Concubine De not to worry about this, if the Wei family can get Yueting as a son-in-law, it would be glorious, but what good can Yueting do if she marries her sister? β
"Your Majesty said this, isn't Concubine De your favorite concubine?" Yun Fenghuan hated him, "The more Deng Yueting married Concubine De's sister, are you afraid that Concubine De won't talk to him in the future?" β
Chunjia said casually: "If it is to get help in the harem, then Yueting might as well marry your sister." β
When he said this, he saw Yun Fenghuan looking at him intently, crying and laughing, and reached out and pinched her cheek, "Don't mess around!" I haven't even asked about the marriage of the Moon Court myself, what are you mixed in? Placement placement! β
