Although he cried with a sad face at first, he didn't have the impassioned momentum he had just had in front of his parents, but there was a frustration that no matter how much Sun Monkey jumped, he couldn't escape the frustration of Rulai's palm, but Lu Saburo's biggest advantage is that he doesn't drill the horns, and his emotions come and go faster. When he heard Zhang Shou say that Ming'er was going to go to Liu's house with his father to propose marriage, he was immediately overjoyed.

"It's good that I met with someone tonight, otherwise I would have looked back and blackened my eyes, and maybe I would have rebellious thoughts! And if I hadn't happened to be there, maybe the four girls of the Liu family would have met the second prince, and then there might not have been me, a good man with a warm heart, to come out and solve the siege! ”

Looking at the triumphant Lu Saburo, Zhang Shou couldn't help but want to poke the little fat man's face to see if the human skin was as thick as the pigskin. Thinking that Lu Sanlang had protested before that he didn't hit someone in the face, he dismissed this idea and thoughtfully diverted the topic: "But since your father arranged me here for you, I also happen to have something serious to ask you to help me do." ”

If someone else suddenly interjected into something serious when he was looking forward to it, he would definitely feel uncomfortable, and he would mutter, but Lu Sanlang immediately lifted his spirits, rolled up his sleeves and asked, "Did Mr. Xiao come up with other clues?" Hurry up and say it, I'll help you think about it and try to answer it tonight! ”

Then tomorrow morning, he can go to the Jiuzhang Hall to show off his ability as a fasting chief!

Zhang Shou couldn't help but knock on the door of the little fat man's head, and then lowered his voice and said, "You go to Weinanbo, it's best to see if Ah Liu has come back from Liu's house and call him along." You are the second prince on the street today, and the limelight is too big, so you have to prevent someone from being angry with you. After you meet Wei Nanbo, ask about it first......"

When Lu Sanlang happily slipped out of his small courtyard to find Ah Liu, in Qingning Palace, the Queen Mother, who usually goes to bed early and gets up early, did not go to bed early for the first time. Because just after the Qingning Gate was locked, the emperor suddenly knocked on the door with Zhu Ying and came in. The niece of the grandson, whom she has always liked, was hiding behind the emperor, looking like she didn't dare to face her if she was in trouble.

The Queen Mother had long been accustomed to Zhu Ying's irregular troubles, and she didn't bother to get out of bed at this time. The female official Yuquan went to put a big pillow behind her, and she leaned there and asked angrily: "Yingying, let's say, what's the trouble again?" ”

"It's not me who is in trouble!" Zhu Ying poked her head out from behind the emperor's back with confidence, and then coughed dryly, "But it has something to do with me!" ”

"It's okay, you won't enter the palace to see the emperor at night, and come to see me again!"

There was anger on her face, but the Queen Mother didn't take it too seriously. Because the emperor was still smiling slightly at this time, it shouldn't be a big deal. Sure enough, next, she only listened to Zhu Ying say seriously: "Lu Sanlang was worried that his father was messing up the mandarin duck score, and he was anxious and begged Ah Shou to find me to find a suitable marriage for him, and it happened that the four girls of Liu Shilang's family in the Ministry of Industry were very interested in him, so I helped to pull a line." ”

"It's definitely not a private teaching, it's just a public appearance, taking care of each other."

The Queen Mother knew that Zhu Ying was messing around, and this kind of big thing should not be nonsense, so she glared at her angrily at the moment: "They are often mixed with your third aunt, and they have learned badly!" It's just a matter of looking at each other, it's not a big deal......"

Zhu Ying coughed again, and then whispered, "But there is a later...... Later, the second prince suddenly brought people over. ”

Seeing that the smile that the Queen Mother had just revealed instantly froze on her face, she simply told her what happened later. It's just that she naturally weakened Lu Sanlang's toughness by a few levels, and raised the arrogance of the second prince by a few levels, and finally said: "Later, the eldest prince also came, and the second prince was scared away in a few words, and the matter was over." ”

"Two obstacles, two obstacles!"

Since the Queen Mother once listened to politics with the curtain down, she naturally has a deep understanding of people's hearts, how could she not know the cats? At this time, she scolded twice angrily, and when she saw that the emperor's face was indifferent, she couldn't help but stop. She didn't know if the emperor only thought that this was a trivial matter of brotherly rivalry, or if she couldn't mourn more than die at all, so she could only take a deep breath and forcibly reverse the conversation.

"The Ministry of Rites has just released a preliminary list of concubines, maybe they will be mistaken by someone who has spread false rumors......

"The queen mother doesn't have to speak for the two of them. The second child, he still dares to dislike the daughter of the waiter of the Ministry of Labor, whose identity is not noble enough? Is there anything else he can do except be my son? Is the literary talent enough to stand alone in the world, or is the military strategy enough to guide the country? Or can you win souls? Emperor Taizu set the painstaking decision that the prince should not be crowned king at will, and it seems that they have long forgotten it! ”

The emperor sneered, and then said coldly: "Moreover, I think that at the beginning, it was not that no one proposed that the harem concubines and princesses and wives were all selected from the people to prevent foreign relatives from interfering in politics, but Emperor Taizu refused." ”

"Emperor Taizu said at that time that women from small families often continue to teach their children to continue that set of childishness, and it is easy to teach bad children. And it is also inappropriate to hand over the prince and daughter to eunuchs or even foreign ministers and separate them from their mothers, and they often develop great character defects. Moreover, the mother and child are by nature, and this dynasty cannot do anything to kill the mother and keep the child. ”

"Therefore, since the beginning of the Taizu period, the princess has been generally selected from among the officials of the third rank and below."

Although she knew that she shouldn't intervene on this occasion, Zhu Ying couldn't help but mutter: "Emperor Taizu's little mercy has all changed over the years. At that time, it was an official of the third rank and below, and later it was not a first-grade or second-grade official or even a family of the Duke of Xungui, and when the prince married a wife, it all became the background of the maiden family of the wife, which was smoky and messy. ”

Seeing that the Queen Mother's face sank when she heard this, Zhu Ying immediately hid behind the emperor, but when she followed, she only heard the emperor laugh: "Yingying is right." Therefore, the second child spoke out on the street and humiliated the daughter of the Liu family, which is of course subject to heavy punishment, but I want to discuss one thing with the queen mother. From now on, the prince's wife will only be selected from enlightened scholars such as officials below the seventh grade, juren, xiucai, and prison students. ”

The corners of the emperor's mouth hooked, and he said lightly: "There are several princes at a time, and a few girls who are about twelve years old are selected at a time. Then the palace sent people to teach the scriptures, etiquette, and control, and then look at the character, temperament, and bearing, and teach it for three or four years, and then select the right one to marry to the prince. ”

The Queen Mother gasped. Marrying a princess, this will take three to four years of teaching? She subconsciously glanced at Zhu Ying, and when she saw that this girl who did her own thing was also dumbfounded, she knew that the emperor was probably already successful.

Knowing that the emperor may have been thinking like this in her heart since she was dissatisfied with the empress, she was silent for a moment, and then sighed and said: "Maybe it will be feasible in the future, but now that their brothers are not young, they can't wait for three or four years." ”

"Three or four years won't work, but they can afford to wait two years. What's more, my queen feels sorry for her son, and it's not that there are no women around them. I ascended the throne as a young man, and my mother taught me strictly, and I didn't touch a woman before I was fifteen years old, but those two started from the thirteenth division, but they read countless flowers, and they only had to give those warblers Yanyan a name. ”

Knowing that the emperor was indifferent at this time, he was actually very angry, otherwise he would not have wanted to reverse the purpose of choosing a concubine so strongly, the queen mother thought about it again and again, and finally nodded and said: "Okay, that's it." Let the Yuquan beside me, and the celebrant Bingbi Chu Kuan and those officials of the Ministry of Rites go to the selection together, don't disturb the people too much, and finally elect three or five people. ”

"As for those who can't be selected in the future, they will be assigned to the royal family as their wives, and they will not be humiliated."

Seeing that the Queen Mother nodded after all, he had long expected that the result would be like this, although the emperor's face was still tense, but his heart was quite satisfied, so when he caught a glimpse of Zhu Ying's face, he smiled and said: "Actually, I learned this trick from Yingying and her father." It's just that raising a son-in-law from scratch has been too long, and I can only reluctantly raise my daughter-in-law for three or four years. ”

"It's another kind of child bride. Actually, I prefer to raise a girl when she is six or seven years old. ”

is obviously very serious, and a serious matter that involves a wide range of things, was said by the emperor in such a joking tone, and the queen mother was suddenly choked. And Zhu Ying was even more angry and protested: "What kind of nonsense is this emperor, when did Ah Shou become my father's child son-in-law?" At most, my father contributed some money, he was self-taught by Grandpa Ge's books, and my family owed his mother and son! ”

"Okay, your Ashou is not a child son-in-law...... He's your fiancé, okay? The emperor rubbed Zhu Ying's head as he did when he was a child, and then said with a smile, "Yingying came to complain tonight, and the second child, who knew that she was in trouble, had already gone to Kunning Palace to cry to the queen, but his eldest brother also went, but I was afraid that the queen mother would not sleep well tonight." ”

Are you embarrassed to say?

When the Queen Mother was angry, the emperor said lightly: "Pass the order, Qingning Palace will seal the door, I will accompany the Queen Mother to talk about the world tonight, and wait for tomorrow when the sky falls!" Yingying went to sleep in the Queen Mother's East Warm Pavilion, girls can't sleep well at night. ”

I think that he respected his wife back then, and he didn't meet other concubines in the first two years of marriage, and even when the queen was pregnant with Liujia, he often accompanied him in Kunning Palace. However, after the queen gave birth to the second prince, she seemed to feel that her position was stable, and then the concubines were often to blame, and the palace people were even more trembling.

After Ling Si Li interrogated the palace person, he finally expelled the person from the palace, and the imperial doctor he sent to treat the queen was kicked out by her. Since then, he has rarely entered Kunning Palace, and often goes to those concubines who once kept empty rooms alone. Among them, Concubine Yu, who likes martial arts and horseback riding, is the most popular with him.

Now, the two princes have been raised by the queen as the root of their lives for many years, although he often calls people to mention their lives, but it can be seen that they are only face-to-face, and there is another set behind them. But the teacher was also painstakingly selected by her, and then the minister was elected to him, he looked at the person and was considered an old Confucian, and agreed with his eyes closed, but he developed this appearance!
