Chapter 157: Yan Wenting and his people
The National Ceremony is also a way to demonstrate the strength of the country. Today's post-sealing ceremony allowed the envoys of various countries to see the newly-born Zhao Song's belief in inheriting the orthodoxy of the Chinese imperial power.
For Zhao Laoer, the marriage between the Song and Tang dynasties was not necessary. As for Li Tang's persecution, he is actually killing chickens and making an example of monkeys, highlighting the prestige of Zhao Song as the suzerain.
If Li Tang is willing to sacrifice the Zhou sisters for marriage, it means that Li Tang officially surrenders to Zhao Song. If Li Tang does not agree to this marriage for the sake of his own face, then a war to exterminate the unsubordinate will be imperative.
The newly-born Zhao Song will use force to prove that he inherited the status of the Later Zhou suzerainty.
"Thank you so much for Master Yan today, otherwise the kid will lose face in front of the world." After the ceremony, Wen Qihang, who walked out of the palace, specially waited on the royal road in front of the palace gate to thank Yan Wenting.
"Wen Jue doesn't have to be polite, the old man's words today are not all for Wen Jue." Yan Wenting shook his head slightly.
“........ Please forgive the boy for being stupid. Wen Qihang grinned.
"It's not a place to talk, let's talk as we go." Yan Wenting glanced at the officials and envoys who came out of the palace gate and said.
"Master Yan, please!" Wen Qihang agreed.
Away from the imperial road in front of the palace, Wen Qihang followed Yan Wenting all the way to East Street, with only Zheng He and Yan Wenting's old servant behind him, each leading a horse to follow.
"What do you think about the marriage between the Song and Tang dynasties?" After walking for most of the day, Yan Wenting finally broke the silence between the two and asked Wen Qihang.
"Master Yan, don't make fun of the kid." Wen Qihang smiled bitterly.
Although the old man had not had any dealings with Wen Jue before, he still knew about Wen Jue's temperament. If Wen Jue resolutely opposed the marriage between the Song and Tang dynasties, or was unwilling to come forward to carry out the marriage in person, he would definitely not be as inactive as he is now. Yan Wenting glanced at Wen Qihang and said.
“........”
"Everyone has a love for beauty, and the young Mu Shaoai is also human nature, but Zhou Qiang and Zhou Ehuang, one of the Zhou sisters, are now the wives of others. Wen Jue did this, is it a bit too much? Yan Wenting said.
"Master Yan, you misunderstood, the kid was resolutely opposed to this matter at the beginning, but His Majesty resolutely disagreed!" Wen Qihang hurriedly explained. If Yan Wenting is accused of robbing other people's wives and concubines, then he will not be stinking for 10,000 years.
"Heh, if Wen Jue resolutely disagrees, the old man believes that Wen Jue will have many ways to force His Majesty to agree, but now! Wen Jue's attitude seems to be happy to see it! Yan Wenting said meaningfully.
"........ "That's a big and small week after the fame has been passed down through the ages!" And it's a pair of sisters, that man can withstand this temptation, and he is just happy to see it, which is already very determined!
"Wen Jue?" Seeing that Qihang was stunned for a long time and didn't speak, Yan Wenting called out loudly.
"Ahh Wen Qihang, who came back to his senses, sighed lightly and said: "Hey, Master Yan is really a person who wakes up from his dreams, for the Zhou sisters, the kid may be a little obstacle." ”
"Wen Jue Guo is extraordinary." Yan Wenting praised: "Not everyone in this world can calmly face their own flaws, especially at Wenjue's age, it is even more difficult. ”
"It's just that now that Your Majesty has announced this matter in public, I'm afraid it will not be easy for Your Majesty to retract this fate." Wen Qihang paused and continued to ask, "I wonder if Master Yan can do anything to save this matter?" ”
"The marriage between the Song and Tang dynasties is not a marriage for the sake of marriage, but it was done by His Majesty in order to show the majesty of the dynasty, so His Majesty's mind cannot be changed. Even if Wen Jue can withdraw, His Majesty will choose another person to continue the matter. Yan Wenting shook his head and said.
"What does Master Yan mean........" Wen Qihang said suspiciously.
"Since ancient times, there has been a lot of life, if the marriage between the Song and Tang dynasties is imperative in the future, the old man hopes that Wenjue can treat the Zhou sisters well." Yan Wenting sighed lightly.
"........ what a reversal this is!" Could it be that this old man is also an old man! Wen Qihang grinned and said, "Master Yan can rest assured." ”
"I hope that Wenjue will not blame the old man for being troublesome." Yan Wenting sighed lightly before continuing to explain: "The old man and Zhou Situ are also old acquaintances, and among women, it is not common to have such talents as the Zhou sisters...... Although Emperor Zhou E is now a wife........ But Wangwenjue should be more kind to her. ”
Ah! What is called is also old knowledge, it seems that there is gossip in it! The mother who can give birth to a beauty like the Zhou sisters must also be a beauty! It seems that this old man Yan has also done love!
"Master Yan can rest assured, the kid is not a pedantic person, and the reason why the kid did nothing about this matter is actually to be able to change the tragic fate of the Zhou sisters in the future. The kid said this, I don't know if Master Yan can believe it? Wen Qihang smiled.
According to the development of history, in a few years, after the Great Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Qiang and Zhou Ehuang will suffer from postpartum depression because of Li Yu's affair with his sister Zhou Wei, and finally die of depression. As for the fate of Zhou Wei after Xiao Zhou, after Li Tang was destroyed, she would be favored by Zhao Guangyi, and she would often be recruited into the palace for obscene humiliation, and even Zhao Guangyi's shameless thing was drawn on the "Xiling Xingxiao Zhou Hou Map" and passed on to future generations.
Even if it is to prevent Zhao Guangyi from embarrassing our descendants, we must prevent such a shameless thing from happening.
"Oh! The old man knows that Wen Jue has a heavenly master, could it be that Wen Jue is also very proficient in Yi Gua? Yan Wenting was surprised.
"The boy actually has reservations about the number of numbers, but the boy has learned a science called arithmetic with his master. Our ancient sages once said: Controlling the gods calculates and measures impermanence. That is, the unknown result is extrapolated based on the existing conditions.
Now Li Tang is twilight, but his king is obsessed with calligraphy, painting and poetry, and does not want to forge ahead. However, Li Tang's successor, Li Yu, has a cowardly temperament, and in the face of Chen Zheng in the DPRK and China for many years, there is no solution in his heart. In this way, the disaster of the destruction of the country will not be far away.
Once Li Tang was destroyed, as the Zhou sisters who were famous all over the world, their fate would not be known. ”
"Wen Jue Gao saw that this is also the reason why the old man did not admonish His Majesty, once Li Tang is destroyed, the fate of the Zhou sisters may be even more miserable than now. At least now that the marriage is successful, they will still have the blessing of Lord Wen. And once he is dedicated to the palace as a person who has lost his country, then ........" Yan Wenting shook his head and sighed.
