154. Good things come in pairs

The marriage of Yang Qiong and Cheng Fengyi caused a lot of repercussions in Zizhang City.

There are many rumors in the market, although there are many well-intentioned sayings that "Mrs. Cheng's wonderful hands and benevolence are deeply favored by God, and although she has experienced hardships, she still has to enjoy peace in the end", but most of them are vulgar and obscene.

When Zhong Luhuan and the Wang family entered the palace to ask for peace, Zhiying asked about the messages in the market, and both of them told the truth.

What Cheng Fengyi and Zhai Rang lost their virginity unruly Cheng Hu had to let the two get married, Cheng Fengyi also secretly Chen Cang with Yang Qiong after getting married, and some people even unscrupulously made up the stories of Cheng Fengyi and the queen and princesses of Beidi in the palace of Changyao.

"Sister Cheng is open-minded, but she may not care about these rumors, but people are terrible, and General Yang is such a character, this matter still can't be left alone," Zhiying finished flipping it, and casually threw the unsightly book into the furnace, "Su Qing, bring a message to General Cao for the palace, during the period before Sister Cheng and General Yang's wedding, you must always pay attention to the rumors in the city, if you hear someone spreading rumors on the street, you will be arrested directly, and the crime of slandering the eldest princess and the concubine is not something that anyone can bear." ”

The Wang family agreed, but Zhong Luhuan was still worried: "Why did Sister Cheng and General Yang receive so much criticism, Da Chu has no law that stipulates that women are no longer allowed to Jiao, not to mention that Sister Cheng is still the eldest princess, and she is the emperor's righteous sister, how can anyone dare to pluck the hair on the tiger's face?" Could there be any conspiracy behind this? ”

Zhiying said with a smile: "The conspiracy is not counted, it is nothing more than some people who can't eat grapes and think that grapes are sour, and they are resentful." ”

Zhong Luhuan was still a little puzzled, Wang said: "I heard Zhong Xing say that in the old days, the military generals under the command of the prince, except for Mr. Shan's untimely death, only General Yang is single, if he marries his daughter, it is equivalent to a tree that does not fall, and the glory and wealth will roll in in the future, so there are not a few people in the capital who want to recruit General Yang as a son-in-law. Naturally, it stopped. ”

Zhong Luhuan listened with affection: "There are still such people, is it true that in their eyes, their daughter is just a prop to cling to the powerful?" Even the other party's wishes don't matter, if you don't marry their daughter, you deserve to be slandered? ”

"Isn't my mom and dad a ready-made example? There are a few parents in the world who don't treat their daughters as objects, and if they marry well, their mothers will be happy with them. Zhiying smiled helplessly, thinking that Zhong Luhuan was spoiled by Zhong Yuanshan, and she was a girl from an ordinary family, who allowed you to choose a husband by yourself, all of them were the words of the matchmaker of your parents, and some people had never seen their husbands before they left the cabinet, and the life after marriage was fortunate or unfortunate, it all depended on creation.

"......" Zhong Luhuan lowered her head gloomily, her fingers wrapped around the tassel of the jade pendant, and it took a long time to squeeze out a sentence, "Yes, there are a few parents in this world who really love their daughters, and they are not mixed with dirty thoughts." ”

Zhiying looked at her, remembering that the informant came to report the day before yesterday, saying that he saw Zhong Luhuan's eldest brother personally send Cui Xiang to the door, and the two talked in detail, Cui Xiang seemed to have said thank you or something, but unfortunately they couldn't be ambushed too close, and it was not clear what they said specifically, but it was certain that it would not be a good thing.

After saying goodbye, the two said goodbye together, and the expression of the parting clock was about to speak and stopped, as if he wanted to confess something, but he couldn't make up his mind. Zhiying vaguely guessed, but she didn't break it, just waiting for her to admit it herself. However, in the end, Zhong Luhuan still chose not to say anything and got on the sedan chair gloomily.

A few days later, Princess Yuanhui officially married Emperor Chengguang's confidant Yang Qiong, the general of Xuanwu, and the noisy rumors finally came to an end, and those high-ranking officials who wanted to recruit Yang Qiong as their son-in-law no matter how unaccustomed to Cheng Fengyi were, they had to give Cui Yi three points of face, and went to the princess's mansion to congratulate him with a congratulatory gift.

Cheng Fengyi is only one year older than Zhiying, but she looks much older, which is inseparable from her bumpy experience in the past three years, but after wearing the red bridal dress, she is still so charming and moving, Xiao Shujin walked forward with a big red apple and said sweetly: "My mother is so beautiful today." ”

Cheng Fengyi took the apple, hugged her daughter in her arms, and asked with tears in her eyes: "From now on, Jin'er will change her mind and call Uncle Yang Daddy, will Jin'er blame her mother?" ”

Xiao Shujin shook her head, the red silk on the pigtail fanned like a butterfly, and she snuggled up to her obediently and said, "Uncle Yang is good to his mother, and he is good to Jin'er, Jin'er likes Uncle Yang." ”

When Cheng Fengyi heard this, her tears couldn't stop falling, or Zhong Luhuan and others hurriedly said something like "You can't cry on a happy day" and "It's not good to look good when you cry with makeup" and so on, and she made her laugh and re-touched up her makeup, so she didn't miss the auspicious time to get on the sedan chair.

On the one hand, she is the righteous sister of today's saint, the eldest princess who has been committed to the king of Beidi for the peace of the frontier, and on the other hand, the military general who has followed Cui Yi since the reign of Emperor Jingzong, the wedding was unprecedentedly grand, and the reward was sent all the way to the princess's mansion.

Zhiying, as the imperial concubine, and acting as the queen power, can only stay in the palace after accepting the bow of the couple and the couple, and cannot personally send the wedding sedan chair, and feels sorry in his heart, but after the bride passes the door, Cui Yi will take her to drink the wedding wine, but he is not afraid of missing the festive picture.

"One day, the mother concubine will also send you to the sedan chair like today, marry someone you like him, and he also likes you, so that you can live a carefree and happy life." She hugged her four-year-old daughter Cui Xian, looked at the crape myrtle flowers blooming in the courtyard and muttered to herself.

Xiao Cui Xian didn't know the suffering of the world, and she couldn't perceive the melancholy in her mother's heart, so she only shook the cradle on the side with her little hand, and Xiao Cui Hao held one of her fingers and slept soundly in the warm afternoon sun.

When Cui Yi stepped into the door with great interest, he saw Zhiying basking in the sun in the courtyard with a son and a daughter, and the little peach cake and a litter of cubs it had laid down not long ago were also lying on the ground in the courtyard of Yaohua Palace. "A mother cat with a kitten in the sun?" With a narrow smile on his face, he stepped forward to pick up his daughter.

"Who's a she-cat?" Zhiying glanced at him angrily, and beckoned someone to bring a chair.

Xiao Taoshu is still the same as in the past, and she is worried when she sees Cui Yi, which will make the children flee in a hurry.

Cui Yi was like a big dog, snorting and flicking his tail, licking his daughter again, and Zhiying couldn't help but be funny: "Why are you in such a good mood?" ”

Cui Yi bent down, little Cui Xian pounced on his back, and he spread his hands backwards to prevent his daughter from accidentally pounced on the ground. He smiled and said: "The two of them have become married today, and you and I have been thinking about it for many years, how can we not be happy?" ”

"That's not all," Zhiying looked at him suspiciously, "I didn't see you so happy when they went to Wansheng Palace to ask An Xie En in the morning. Is there anything else that is good? ”

Cui Yi sighed exaggeratedly, took his daughter into his arms and hugged him, and said convincingly: "I really can't hide it from you." Just now, news came from the west, saying that he had found the traces of the eldest brother and had entered the boundary of Liangzhou. ”

Zhiying's expression immediately became serious: "He ran to Liangzhou?" Want to emulate us back then, take Liangzhou as a camp, and regroup and fight back? No, you have to stop him immediately! ”

Cui Yi pressed her knee: "Wen Yu also speculated so, and Gongqi and they searched the entire Qinzhou Mansion, and they didn't see any trace of Guo Ziyan, presumably he is still with the eldest brother, this person is a fierce opponent, and he must not be underestimated, with him on the side, maybe the eldest brother really has the ability to fight back." ”

Zhiying looked into his eyes and asked seriously, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I'm still thinking about it, but if they show up, they will be caught sooner or later," Cui Yi's eyes flashed with eagerness, just like his fighting spirit before every time he went to the battlefield, "He didn't dare to kill me back then, because he was concerned about the safety of the frontier, and as soon as I die, Hu'er Hana will definitely go south desperately, otherwise he will never understand the truth of raising tigers." But on the other hand, I don't have to worry about what will happen if he dies, if I kill him in Liangzhou, maybe it will be able to deter the northwest countries, Huerhana is dead, and no one can contain Dachu, if Babian, Chacha and other countries don't want to be served by me, they must bow their heads and submit and conclude an alliance, so it seems that it is a good thing for him to flee to Liangzhou. ”

Zhiying smiled and listened to him, blinked slightly, and said, "You thought of these yourself?" ”

Cui Yi hummed proudly: "That's nature." ”

Zhiying said with relief: "You are becoming more and more like an emperor now, it seems that I can worry less about dim sum." ”

Cui Yi pricked up his ears vigilantly: "What do you want to do?" ”

"Don't do anything, you can take the lead alone, I can naturally embroider and raise fish in my spare time, isn't it?" Zhiying knew what he was worried about, so he smiled and comforted.

Cui Yi put his mind at ease: "Well, you worked too hard a few years ago, you want to raise fish, and when I go back, I will ask someone to fish a few good-looking koi fish in the imperial garden pond and raise them for you in Yaohua Palace." By the way, the sachet you made for me before is about to break, so I have to make a new one, and I want the dragon and phoenix to be auspicious. ”

Holding Ying sighed a few times and teased: "Needlework will not be asked to be done by the embroidery lady in the palace, just give me a few fish, and you will have to make a new sachet." ”

"What you do looks good, what the embroidery girl makes is only worthy of hanging in the tent, and I will carry what you do." Cui Yi rummaged through the simple sachet embroidered with Dilian on his waist, which was made for him when Zhiying first married into the palace, and he had nothing to do, and it was used for four or five years, old and worn, and it was really unsightly compared to the dragon robe.

Zhiying looked at the sachet, her heart softened, and she promised: "Then I'll go back and ask Xiaoqiu to pull the thread." ”

The two chatted in the courtyard for a while, and Du Zhenquan came forward to remind that the hour was almost up, and Zhiying went inside to change his dress, and went out of the palace in a carriage with Cui Yi.
