Chapter 846: Rejection is the Phase
The discussion was almost over, and all the ministers said goodbye and left, originally thought that today was going to talk about Cai Jing's serious illness and change of appearance, but the official family didn't mention it, everyone is a shrewd person, and it is estimated that the official family has not yet decided on a candidate, so don't mention it for the time being, in fact, not only the son of heaven Zhao Gou didn't mention it, but everyone didn't want to mention it, Cai Jing was sick too suddenly, everyone was caught off guard, and they were not prepared in their hearts, everyone was thinking about how to maximize Cai Jing's benefits for themselves.
Li Yanqing was left behind, Zhao Gou smiled and personally brought him a cup of tea, Li Yanqing hurriedly waved his hand, "Your Majesty doesn't have to be like this, Weichen can't afford it!" ”
"Li Taibao has been really hard in the past two months, and I can only express my gratitude by offering tea."
Zhao Gou said it from the heart, he was grateful to Li Yanqing from the bottom of his heart, Li Yanqing could completely establish the king of Daning County as a real power, but he gave himself the opportunity, this time to suppress the rebellion of his relatives in the south of the Yangtze River, completely suppressed the voices dissatisfied with him, and consolidated his throne, Zhao Gou could see that Li Yanqing was sincerely helping himself, and now he also needed Li Yanqing's support.
Li Yanqing also knew that Zhao Gou would have something important to discuss if he stayed by himself, so he took a sip of tea and waited patiently for Zhao Gou to speak.
Zhao Gou smiled and said, "The main thing is that I want to talk to you about the emperor's concubine." ”
Li Yanqing was deflated all of a sudden, his energy was gone, and he said listlessly: "Your Majesty has a myriad of state affairs to deal with, don't think about this kind of trivial matter for the time being!" ”
"This is no small matter! It's also a big deal for me, but one thing may not be able to stop you, the matter of the emperor's marriage really can't be put on a show. ”
"Your Majesty, don't say that, Weichen understands in his heart that there are too many places for the court to use money, countless pairs of eyes are staring at it, the pomp is too big, Your Majesty will be criticized by the subjects, even Weichen's backbone will be broken, or the more low-key the better."
Zhao Gou nodded, "I have also thought about it, a little smaller in the pomp, and try to make up for it in the canonization, I discussed it with the queen last night, and chose an auspicious day to send the emperor to the Taibao Mansion by boat." ”
"Your Majesty is in charge!"
Zhao Gou took a few steps with his hands in his hand, and smiled slightly, "Marrying the emperor, you are my brother-in-law, how about Yanqing as the right minister and replace Cai Jing?" ”
Li Yanqing was stunned, he didn't expect to end up here, in fact, Li Yanqing was also mentally prepared, originally Zhao Gou's original intention was to let himself be the right minister, and he pushed Cai Jing out with insufficient qualifications, and at this time Cai Jing fell again, of course Zhao Gou would think of himself again.
Speaking of which, Li Yanqing really doesn't want to be the prime minister, he prefers to be a political party, give himself the whole territory, and manage it carefully by himself, which is better than working for others.
"Your Majesty, Weichen is still the same sentence, the qualifications are not enough, and Your Majesty has just established the country, it is more conducive to the stability of the imperial power to find a Xiangguo with old qualifications."
Zhao Gou still wanted to persuade again, Li Yanqing waved his hand, "Your Majesty, this is Weichen's heart, not to shirk hypocrisy, if Your Majesty really believes in Weichen's vision, then how about Weichen recommend a right minister?" ”
Zhao Gou saw that Li Yanqing really didn't want to take over Xiangguo, so he no longer forced him, "Okay! I'll see who you recommend? ”
Li Yanqing thought for a while and said: "Wechen has three people to recommend, the first is the veteran Zong Ze, followed by Zhang Shuye, and then the second is Wechen's mentor and marshal, Wechen considers stabilizing the rear and preparing for the Northern Expedition at the same time, it is best to add a military representative in the Xiangguo, these three people have deep qualifications and great influence, and they can all be ministers." ”
Zhao Gou paced back and forth, he agreed with Li Yanqing's idea of adding a military representative to the Zhizheng Hall, but he had to think carefully about who to choose as the prime minister.
"Let me think about this!"
"Then Weichen won't bother Your Majesty, Weichen will retire!"
Li Yanqing got up to leave, but Zhao Gou remembered something and said to Li Yanqing: "Do you want to release Xu Churen?" I'll listen to you. ”
"Your Majesty knows about that?"
"I heard from the queen last night." Zhao Gou said with a cold face: "There is no way to teach Sun and indulge in the scourge of the people, such a person I don't believe that he can govern the world for me." ”
"Your Majesty decides this matter for himself, and Weichen has no attitude."
Li Yanqing's meaning is very clear! It's okay to deal with people, but don't involve yourself, that is to say, don't use this excuse, of course Zhao Gou understands.
"Alright! I know what to do, and I'll find an opportunity to convince people! ”
.........
Li Yanqing came out of the vertical arch hall and walked quickly towards the Privy Council, he was now anxious to understand the movements of the Western Xia, since he entered Bianliang, Tokyo, he had left the affairs of the Western Xia aside, and he didn't bother to ask for almost half a year, today he thought of his own land, and he also thought of the Western Xia.
But Li Yanqing hadn't walked far before he heard someone behind him calling him, "Li Taibao, please stay!" ”
This voice was familiar, and as soon as Li Yanqing turned around, he saw Xu Churen running over, smiling like a chrysanthemum blooming on his face.
"Yo! Xu Xianggong hasn't left yet? ”
"Isn't this waiting for the Taibao? Or is the Taibao valued by the official family and specially stayed, is it discussing the matter of the new right minister? ”
This Xu Churen can't do things, but he is a thousand-year-old fox when he thinks about it, and he can say it accurately.
"Huh! Xu Xianggong laughed, Cai Gongxiang fell ill too suddenly, everyone was not mentally prepared, and now they can't say any ideas, so the official family will talk to me about the official house. ”
Xu Churen approached, put on a low-eyebrow look, and apologized to Li Yanqing, "Taibao, the family is unfortunate, I raised a grandson ......"
Without waiting for Xu Churen to finish speaking, Li Yanqing waved his hand and said: "This matter has been settled, and Sun has also learned the lesson he deserves. ”
"I didn't mean that, but I was indignant!"
Xu Churen sighed, "I have walked around the city in the past two days, asked a lot of villagers, mentioned the Xu family, there are really many resentful, few praisers, I think my Xu family is a scholarly family, more than a dozen young children are low-key and diligent, but they have been ruined by a bad child, I really want to kill him, dissatisfied with the Taibao, I have found a boat yesterday, sent that evil grandson to the countryside and imprisoned, and he is not allowed to go out for ten years." ”
Li Yanqing smiled faintly, "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, Xu Xianggong doesn't have to worry too much, just manage people well, Xu Xianggong, you came just in time, or I will leave the affairs of this official house and official residence to you?" ”
Whether it is an official house or an official house, it is a fat difference, not only can you make a lot of money, but it is also profitable in the distribution of official houses, this is a beauty difference that many people dream of, Xu Churen's eyes were red all of a sudden, rubbed his hands and smiled: "Li Taibao, this.... How embarrassing is that! ”
"Am I not afraid of trouble? If Xu Xianggong is troublesome, I will let Li Xianggong take over. ”
"Don't! I took this job, and I also shared the worries of the court! ”
Xu Churen thanked Li Yanqing for his kindness, and rushed to the Zhizheng Hall with joy, thinking about the charter of repairing the official residence and the official residence.
It's a pity that Xu Churen has made a lot of calculations, but he forgot one thing, the money for repairing the official house and the official house was taken out of the pockets of the officials, and if he wanted to be greedy for the money of the officials, wouldn't he be looking for death? Li Yanqing dug a big hole, and Xu Churen was blinded by interests and planted headlong.
..........
Now Zhao Gou's most urgent thing is to marry Zhao Fujin, he knows very well the allusion of long nights and dreams, the Cai family was not just waiting for an auspicious day, but Cai Yanei's life was gone.
Coming back from the imperial study, Zhao Gou brought Empress Xing to discuss, Empress Xing was very considerate of her husband, and immediately decided to set the wedding time for the next night, although the next day was an auspicious day, but it was a little hasty, but it was a little hasty, but it was necessary to wait for the next auspicious day, at least a month, Queen Xing gave her husband a guarantee, and immediately got busy.
Since Zhao Gou came to Lin'an, Zhao Fujin has not lived in Li Yanqing, and she has also moved to the palace to prepare for her marriage.
Although the ceremony will be very low-key, not public, but the dowry is not ambiguous at all, Zhao Gou simply opened the treasure house in the palace, let Zhao Fujin pick a hundred treasures as he wants as a dowry, she remembered that Li Yanqing likes Zhang Zeduan's paintings, stretched out his hand and took the "Qingming Riverside Picture" on the easel away, and picked a pair of plum bottles from the firewood kiln for Cao Yun, who likes porcelain, and then picked a few sets of fine porcelain from the four official kilns, so that the chief manager of the next Da Nei Kang Bo tightened his heart, what kind of eyesight is the emperor! All the things he took were the emperor's most beloved things.
In addition to a hundred treasures, Zhao Fujin himself had prepared a rich dowry, but these dowries had been sent to the Li Mansion first.
The so-called wedding, in fact, refers to the ceremony of dusk, the Han people have been married at night since ancient times, and most of the marrying girls in the south of the Yangtze River are by boat and waterway, at dusk, the five painting boats left the royal wharf under the Phoenix Mountain, sailed into the West Lake, and sailed towards the direction of Yongjin Bay.
The bride Zhao Fujin sat on the second boat, accompanied by her second sister Zhao Jinluo, and there were eighteen palace maids to marry, in order to show the dignity, today's wedding person is the eldest sister-in-law Queen Zhu, although the marriage of Queen Xing is noble, but Queen Xing is a younger sister-in-law, a little weaker, so the marriage by the eldest sister-in-law, not only in line with etiquette, but also show dignity, Zhao Jinfu's biological mother Liu died in the third year of Zhenghe, she has been raised by Queen Zheng, so today Empress Dowager Zheng will appear at the wedding as a woman's elder.
In the painting boat, Zhao Jinfu was wearing a luxurious wedding dress and a xia veil on her head, her white hand held the hand of her second sister, and she was a little nervous.
Zhao Jinluo patted her hand and said with a smile: "With your appearance and temperament, it is difficult for Li Yanqing to dislike you, the key is Yun Niang's attitude, you get along well, and you will be harmonious for decades to come, you have today's marriage, and the second sister is also relieved." ”
"But tonight, ......," Zhao Fujin whispered.
"What's wrong tonight, didn't I say it all? Otherwise, I will teach you another method, and I will ensure that your cave room will be full and sweet at night. ”
Zhao Jinluo smiled slyly, opened the curtain, and said a few words to Zhao Fujin in his ear, Zhao Fujin suddenly blushed with shame, and clenched the second sister's hand, "Second sister, this is too embarrassing!" ”
..........
Entering from a small river in Yongjin Bay, less than a mile arrived at Li Yanqing's mansion, Li Yanqing's mansion has already been lit up with lights, festive, although Zhao Jinfu is from the back gate wharf, but from the main gate into the house, generally only the Ming media is married to go to the main gate, but the Li family gives enough face, not only to go to the main gate, across the brazier, but also to worship the elders as husband and wife like the eldest woman, completely the same as the Ming media is marrying, Cao Yun also deliberately avoided the wedding.
In the midst of laughter, Cao Sheng, who temporarily acted as the master of ceremonies, shouted: "The wedding is over, send the newlyweds into the cave room!" ”
Li Yanqing held the colored ball in his hand and led the bride Zhao Jinfu slowly, several palace maids led in front of the lantern, they walked along the long red carpet into Zhao Fujin's courtyard, this is the cave room, in a blessing everyone will candy, peanuts, copper coins scattered to the newlyweds, the two hand in hand into the candle flame of the cave room......
