A bead curtain separates Genyue into two halves of the Qing Palace, and the outside is simple. Behind the bead curtain, the furnishings are rich, and on a couch, Empress Zheng is half-lying on it, quietly thinking about her family affairs.

There were more than a dozen maids next to her, with beautiful faces and standing with their hands down.

Empress Zheng's reputation among officials is really good, firstly, because she never interferes in government politics and has a good temperament.

The second is that the Zheng family has no power, the queen is favored again, and if there are no relatives, there will be no interests in the outer court, and everyone is happy to see this kind of queen in charge of the harem.

But now, the situation has changed, Empress Zheng's father, Zheng Shen, married his second daughter to Shaozai Yang Lin.

Empress Zheng, who was still comforting her sister in the palace that day, almost jumped up when she heard the news, but she didn't expect such a big thing that her unreliable father didn't discuss it with him, so he made his own decisions.

Under the rush of fire, Empress Zheng had a toothache for three days, and she couldn't sleep at night.

Now that it has become a foregone conclusion, if you think about it carefully, this matter is not necessarily a bad thing, but I dare not guarantee that it is a good thing.

Shaozai Yang Lin is no stranger to her, when the kid has not yet entered Beijing, he asked Tong Guan to give gifts to the harem concubines, she was still a concubine of Yisu at the time, and the gifts she received were all extravagant jewelry.

Later, it continued year after year, but the person who helped him give the gift became Yang Jian, and I heard that he had a dislike with Tong Guan.

At the beginning, Cai Jingtong ran Yang Lin and the three of them, rising from the court, one rose faster than the other.

Within two years, he controlled the government and was able to compete with Liang Shicheng, the eunuch. And they became the target of Shilin's attack, and it is said that there were Taixue Confucian officials who listed them as three thieves, and the Shangjuan official's family made a fuss.

How could Empress Zheng not hear about these things, Zhenri stayed in the palace, and Yang Lin's affairs were also calloused.

Judging from what he did, this kid seems to be a close minister, no different from Wang Hao, Cai You and others. The difference is that this is a close minister from a top background... The champion and the first can be said to be the most noble background in the Great Song Dynasty, that is, the clan is a member of the clan, and there is no brilliance from this identity.

Today, Empress Zheng summoned Yang Lin to see her in Genyue, and normally speaking, there was no reason for the concubines to see the ministers in the Song Dynasty.

It's just that in the Zhao Ji Dynasty, it was indeed an era of broken etiquette, and several ministers in the court had the reputation of chasing concubines, and giving gifts to concubines was a compulsory course for close ministers. Zhao Ji is a very free and easy person in this, and he doesn't care about his concubines at all.

Which concubine if she gets a lot of bribes, maybe Zhao Ji will have to smile and share the dividends with her daughter-in-law, the last time Yang Lin gave Xiao Liu Guifei a few flowers and butterfly hairpins are really exquisite, Zhao Ji asked for a Zhaorong Li Zhuyuan who was given to Xinna.

Of course, ordinary scholars from Jinshi backgrounds, cherish their feathers and scruple about their identity, and no matter how the queen summons them, they will not come.

Obviously, Yang Lin does not belong to this ordinary scholar, he is upright, and he came to see his sister-in-law in Genyue.

There was a heavy sound of footsteps, showing that the people who came did not flinch, and even put on a show.

Empress Zheng frowned between her eyebrows, and saw a figure outside the bead curtain with a long torso, wearing court clothes, and bowed slightly: "Chen Yang Lin has seen Her Royal Highness the Queen." ”

Empress Zheng said lightly: "Summoning Yang Shaozai today, it is really abrupt in this palace, but you and my little sister are about to get married, and there are some things that I am my sister and must ask clearly." ”

Empress Zheng said as she quietly looked at this minister, and suddenly thought of her promise to her little sister, this person met all of them, and even exceeded the standard. This is no longer as simple as the current Junyan, this is the power traitor of this dynasty...

Yang Lin smiled lightly and said, "Speaking of this, I really don't know, I don't hide it from Your Highness, I haven't even heard of Sister Ling's name." However, my father saw that I had reached the age of talking about marriage, and inquired about the etiquette of the daughter of the Zheng Mansion, which was a good match, so he invited Yang Jian to propose marriage. ”

Believe you big-headed ghost, Queen Zheng is angry, this is too cunning, I don't know what means I used, I was confused by my father, and I agreed to the family affair without asking myself.

In this way, he, the queen, was forced to become Yang Lin's family, and his opponents in the court were Cai Jing and Liang Shicheng.

Yang Lin glanced around, hugged his fists and said: "Your Highness, we are all a family soon, how can I not know that I feel sorry for my brother-in-law." The ministers were all given seats in front of the emperor, and now they are standing with some back pain. ”

Empress Zheng bit her lip angrily and said, "Come on, give Shaozai a seat and give a drink." ”

Several delicate palace ladies sent Jindun, and then served drinks, and then retreated silently.

When Empress Zheng saw his appearance, she couldn't hold back her face anymore, and burst out laughing: "Okay, you, this palace has been led away by your nose, you say, what means did you use to bluff my father?" ”

Yang Lin smiled, this queen is indeed as rumored, she is simply refreshing and not an inkblot person.

"Where His Royal Highness said, the minister is in the community, quite famous, and it can be said that the crown is full of Bianliang. Master Zheng has a discerning eye and recruited me as a son-in-law, and he is really a man of great wisdom. ”

Empress Zheng was completely defeated, and said coquettishly: "Can you speak well!" ”

Yang Lin looked left and right, and Empress Zheng snorted and said, "Although I said, they are all from this palace." ”

Yang Lin picked a thumbs up and said, "Amazing, worthy of being the queen's mother." ”

"Don't be a sycophant, I just want to know, how did you convince my father." Empress Zheng had been made out of temper by this lazy courtier, and said with a pout.

Since you asked to say it well, I won't hide it, Yang Lin spread his hands and said, "Smash it with money." ”

Empress Zheng was silent, women and eunuchs were all Yin people, and they were very important in terms of money, not to mention that Empress Zheng had no prince.

In the future, after Zhao Ji goes, his family can't count on the new official family. Only if you take care of yourself, you will be doubly heavy on money.

Maybe the brother-in-law in front of him is a person who can be relied on, after all, he is still so young, Liang Shicheng and Cai Jing are dying, and the younger generation is like Wang Huang and Cai You, who are not his opponents at all. The champion and the first, and the close ministers of His Majesty, can't run away from the position of Zaifu at all.

Empress Zheng is a cool person, and after calculating the gains and losses, she smiled and said: "Shaozai is young and has made great achievements, which is the mainstay of the Great Song Dynasty in the future." Although the main palace lives in the deep palace, I often hear about your deeds. I am a woman of a generation, and my knowledge is shallow, so I don't laugh at it. After Yang Shaozai marries a wife, you must treat your little sister well, otherwise the palace will not spare you. ”

Before Yang Lin came, he expected this to be the result, your Zheng family is too short of a son-in-law like me, so he got up and bowed and said: "Queen Mother, please be relieved, the minister will live up to the expectations of Master Zheng and Niangniang." ”
