Emperor Chen's decision was not Tang Ning's expectation, but it was a little earlier than he expected.

Emperor Chen was dissatisfied with the Tang family, it was already two years ago, in the past two years, under his suppression, the Tang family's influence in the court is not as good as before, according to Emperor Chen's character, these important big families, will not be overly rewarded, nor will they be excessively suppressed, give a stick to a sweet date, the Tang family has been beaten so much, it is time to give a date to appease and appease.

Unfortunately, Zhao Man became this sweet jujube again.

Although she is indeed very sweet, she is already famous for her dates, and no one else can eat them, not even a glance.

After eating, Tang Ning hugged her and asked, "Isn't it sad?" ”

"Are you right about your father?" Zhao Man looked up at him, then shook his head and said, "No, in the eyes of my father, I am a princess first, and then her daughter, aren't all emperors like this?" ”

This sentence is a bit of a generalization, in fact, among the emperors, there are a few who value love and righteousness, but Emperor Chen obviously belongs to the majority, with Tang Ning's understanding of him, what he cares about the most is by no means a prince or princess, what he cares about the most is only himself.

Nothing cannot be sacrificed in order to achieve his purpose.

Tang Ning gently patted Zhao Man's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter." ”

"I'm not worried." Zhao Man looked up at him and said with a smile: "Because I know, I still have you." ”

A man who can't protect his wife is not a man, but this time is different from before, this marriage is something that Emperor Chen is happy to promote, just like sending her to Chu State and relatives before, at least it can't go against Emperor Chen's intentions on the surface.

Whether or not it is in accordance with Emperor Chen's wishes is the fundamental difference between this matter and the Liu Feng incident, and the methods adopted are naturally different.

Today is Shangyuan, and since early in the morning, the streets of Jingshi have been overcrowded.

A day ago, the news that Princess Pingyang was about to marry the eldest son of the Tang family had already spread, and the first thing to learn was naturally the circle of the powerful, although these families were not proud of marrying the princess, but His Majesty's marriage would not be a momentary brain fever, and the Tang family had been sluggish and silent in the court for two years, which may be a sign of their resurgence.

Jingshi said that it is not small, but it is not big, and one day is enough for this news to spread in Jingshi.

When Princess Pingyang was married to Chu State, it attracted widespread attention in Beijing, and later the coup d'état of Chu State, sending the family delegation back in vain, and the people sometimes talked about this hard-working princess, and they were all blessed.

Downing left the house around noon, and when he came to a downtown area, a beggar squatting on the corner of the street immediately stood up.

Downing threw a piece of broken silver into his bowl and took a letter from him.

All the streets of the capital division, the restaurants and brothels, and the doors of some officials and wealthy families that need to be paid attention to, are all watched by beggars and disciples every day.

The more help he received from Su Mei, the more he understood the importance of intelligence.

He may not be as powerful as Su Mei, and he has eyeliner in the mansions of powerful officials in Beijing, but Su Mei's people are definitely not as idle as his people, and they can squat under the walls of other people's houses from morning to night and stare at it without attracting attention.

The Tang family is naturally the object of his attention, when the Tang family went to where and how long they stayed, the beggar gang has detailed records every day, and the core disciples of the gang have been forced by Ren Pingsheng to read and write since two years ago, and if they don't actively improve themselves, they can only make a living at the bottom.

Jin is not bare and no one is perfect, he stares at him morning and night, even if his reputation is very good, he can find something that others don't know.

For example, when Tang Jing is in a bad mood, he will go to the Qinglou to vent, it is rumored that he also has some special hobbies.

Naturally, these gossips can't appear in the newspapers in a grand manner, but the people have always spread the word from ten to hundred, and Tang Ning didn't make a big deal about it, this was just a test for him to Emperor Chen, to see if he still had a little conscience as a father.

Inside the Imperial Study.

Emperor Chen flipped through a few letters, rubbed his wrists, and asked, "Today is the Lantern Festival, right?" ”

Wei Jian stood behind him and said loudly: "Back to Your Majesty, today is the Lantern Festival." ”

"Jingshi is lively every year, but unfortunately, I can't see it." On the night of the Lantern Festival, there was still a festival in the palace, Emperor Chen shook his head, picked up a piece again, looked at it, frowned, and muttered: "Tang Jing......, he has such an unbearable side......"

He pondered for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking, and after a moment closed the piece in his hand, tossed it aside, and said no more.

Outside the imperial study, on the square, an official hurriedly walked towards the imperial study, but was stopped halfway.

He looked up at several people in front of him, and when his eyes moved to the person in front of him, he immediately bowed down and said, "Taishi Ling see Concubine Hui." ”

Concubine Tang Hui looked at him and asked, "Your Majesty has just rested, what are you looking for Your Majesty?" ”

Tai Shi Ling said respectfully: "Back to Niangniang's words, Your Majesty ordered someone to send the eight characters of Princess Pingyang and Tang Jing yesterday, and the Taishi Bureau has already calculated and is about to report to Your Majesty." ”

Concubine Tang Hui looked at him and asked, "The two of them have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and the eight characters must be very compatible, right?" ”

Tai Shi Ling opened his mouth and said embarrassedly: "Back to Niangniang, the Tai Shi Bureau has calculated a few times, and found that the princess and Tang Gongzi do not match, and their lives are ...... each other."

Concubine Tang Hui glanced at him lightly and said: "This palace has long let people calculate, Princess Pingyang and Tang Jing are extremely compatible, and they are a rare good match. ”

"Niangniang laughed, how could the Taishi Bureau ......" Taishi Ling looked at Concubine Tang Hui, saw her expression indifferent, and sighed in her heart, and immediately understood.

The marriage between Princess Pingyang and Tang Jing is not as simple as it seems on the surface, it involves the Tang family, Concubine Tang Hui, and King Duan, and countless people are looking forward to this family affair being done.

None of these people could be offended by his little Taishi Ling.

He touched the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Maybe, maybe it's really a miscalculation of the Taishi Bureau." ”

Concubine Tang Hui's eyes looked at him and said, "Since I miscalculated, let's take it back and count it a few times, when it is calculated correctly, if it is correct, I will hand it over to Your Majesty." ”

Tai Shi Ling bowed and said, "The lower official obeys the order." ”

Concubine Tang Hui glanced at him and turned to leave.

Tai Shiling stood in the square, his face showing hesitation, and his heart was even more hesitant.

There will be no mistakes in the results of the Taishi Bureau, and if you don't report it truthfully, you will be a bully, and when the time comes, even if you prevaricate with the reason of miscalculation, you will not be able to escape punishment.

But if it is reported truthfully, I am afraid that the punishment will come earlier, after all, the Tang family has been silent for two years, this is an opportunity to re-enter the attention of everyone, how can they let it go?

If the situation is disturbed because of the Taishi Bureau, how will they let themselves go?

Tai Shi Ling pondered for a while, and finally gritted his teeth, turned around and walked in the direction he came, and as he walked, he muttered in a low voice over and over again: "The eight characters are in conflict, the numerology is incompatible, and it is unlucky......"
