Chapter 197: Standing Cong Tai in Shaoyang

Although Empress Yan promised Mingyue that she would "be measured" after seeing Empress Dowager Zhao, in the Congtai Palace, the mother and daughter were full of sadness as soon as they met. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Before the Empress Yan got up, Empress Dowager Zhao had already shed tears, caressed her face that had lost a lot of weight, and sighed that she had suffered in Yan Kingdom. And Empress Yan was also moved by her true feelings, and did not answer, but just cried loudly on the chest of the Empress Dowager Zhao, as if she wanted to vent all the wrongs she had suffered over the years, and the palace maids and Fu Mu on the side also silently cried.

For a while, there were bursts of mourning on the platform, and King Zhao was not embarrassed.

I haven't seen him for two months, Zhao Wangdan has grown a sparse beard, and the days when Chang'an Jun sent Yan Guo to Yan State can be described as a good thing for him: the first battle since his succession ended in victory, and he also took back several cities that were ceded to Yan by the first king, which undoubtedly established his authority at home and abroad. What's even more gratifying is that his confidant Li Bo, as the general of the Daijun Division, led the army out of Daiyi, attacked the Yan realm, and the forward arrived near Fuyang, the seat of Shanggu County, and made a lot of contributions.

This was the first feudal official won by King Zhao's cronies, and it was also the beginning of the "new dynasty" in the country.

gradually became handy in governing the country, and in the palace, he also had the eldest princess of Qi who married from Qi and Ji Ji who married him, and began to enjoy the blessings of Qi people. According to the unwritten rules of Zhao State, once you marry a lady, it means that the real pro-government is not far from King Zhao!

But today in Taiwan, King Zhao's good mood and ambition were broken by the crying of his mother and sister, after a long time, seeing that Empress Dowager Zhao and Empress Yan had not stopped sobbing, Zhao Wangdan said with a dry smile: "Queen Mother, it is a good thing for my sister to return to Ning, how can I cry non-stop?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhao stopped crying, glared at Zhao Wangdan, and said coldly: "Women are kind and have their own actions. Doctors and gentlemen, there is no self. Of course, the king will not understand the grievances of the women in the deep palace! ”

There are words in this, it turns out that the Empress Dowager Zhao has been a little dissatisfied with King Zhao recently, the princess of Qi and Ji Ji have just married, but King Zhao is not close to two beautiful women like flowers and jade, and only loves to fool around with his minister Zhao Mu and other male pets, the princess of Qi has been neglected, and there is already a color of grievance, and the court of Zhao has a share of peach, how can Empress Dowager Zhao be happy?

Although under Yu Xin's persuasion, Zhao Wangdan's behavior has been slightly restrained, and Zhao Mu has been sent to other places, and he has also begun to visit the princess of Qi often. But Empress Dowager Zhao was extremely disgusted with his vice, and her grandfather, King Qi Xuan, once said frankly: "The widow is sick, and the widow is lustful." "It is human nature to know that if you are lustful, you will Mu Shaoai, but men are interested in men, and the Empress Dowager Zhao can't understand it. It's also thanks to his patience that when he was the prince, he didn't show it at all, and when he ascended to the throne and after his father's funeral, he began to be presumptuous.

Empress Dowager Zhao couldn't help but sigh: "This is still alive, if the old woman leaves one day, he will not make this palace a miasma?" ”

But even if there is dissatisfaction, what can be done, the throne has been decided, and King Zhao's wings are gradually plump, and the Empress Dowager Zhao can only pray that he still has a self-knowledge in his heart, and not to do anything sorry for his ancestors.

So the Empress Dowager Zhao didn't want to pay much attention to King Zhao, and after sending him away, Cong Tai resumed his laughter, and the Empress Dowager Zhao asked her youngest son Chang'an Jun to talk about his experience in Yan Kingdom, and giggled when he talked about interesting places.

The afternoon passed in the joy and sorrow of the reunion after a long absence, and after the evening meal, the Empress Dowager Zhao personally held Empress Yan and walked around with her in the garden of Congtai, while the two brothers Chang'anjun and Lulingjun talked in a low voice.

Congtai, here was the place where King Zhao Wuling performed martial arts, climb the Congtai pole and look into the distance, the towering purple mountains in the west are undulating, the winding city wall of the main city in the southwest is faintly visible, the king of Zhao Wuling raised tigers and leopards here, and began to ride and shoot in Hufu.

King Huiwen was a little bit of a martial artist, and now the plants on the Congtai school field have long been luxuriant, and it has become a palace garden for the royal family's pastime, and the children of the Empress Dowager Zhao grew up here, and stayed much longer than in the palace of King Zhao......

Whenever she walked to a place, Empress Dowager Zhao would point there, talk about Empress Yan and her brothers when they were children, and then ask her if she remembered.

Of course, the queen of Yan remembers that there is not much change here, and the buildings are vividly in her mind, as if they had just parted yesterday: the overpass is like a long rainbow practice, tying the unruly makeup pavilions together, red pillars and blue tiles, painting carved beams, and heavy eaves and animal horns. In front of the stage is the scenery of the flower garden, also the structure is peculiar, the decoration is wonderful, the clear water and clear waves, the lotus flowers are fragrant, the reflection of the weeping willows, which makes people linger.

But the most memorable thing for Queen Yan is the snow cave where the ice is hidden, the ice chiseled down by the iceman in winter is stored here, walk in and take a look, it is as blurry as the silver sea, but no matter how cold those ice are, it is not as cold as the snowflakes of Yan Kingdom.

I haven't seen each other for many years, and the mother and daughter seem to have endless words, talking more and walking slowly, and the two-year-old third son of Yan Guo is a toddler in a slightly front place.

This child looks smart and clever, and he is not afraid of life, he was still a little scared when he first came, but after a while, he was already crawling in the arms of Empress Dowager Zhao.

Empress Dowager Zhao is looking forward to having a grandson, this will be so smiling that the crow's feet are all visible, she has no interest in those complicated government affairs, she just wants to tease her grandson, but unfortunately, this child is not her daughter's own.

"Although it is not your parent, if you raise it with your heart, you can still treat you like a mother." Empress Dowager Zhao glanced at Lulingjun, who was talking to Chang'anjun, and warned Empress Yan with the experience of a passerby.

"My daughter knows."

Empress Yan made up her mind in front of Handan City to "be the Empress Dowager of Yan in ten years", so she was more concerned about this adopted son, she knew that this was her only hope and reliance in Yan Kingdom in the future. However, if she wants to regain a foothold in Yan Kingdom, she still has to have the support of her mother's family, although the Empress Dowager Zhao loves her, but she is old, and the power of Zhao will fall into the hands of Zhao Wangdan sooner or later.

But for the younger brother with a perverse personality, Empress Yan always felt that they were completely strangers to each other, and they didn't necessarily expect to be able to meet them. When she returned from Yan Kingdom, Zhao Wangdan was not most concerned about how she was doing, but repeatedly said that she wanted her to help Zhao Guo maintain relations with Yan Kingdom. When she saw the third prince she brought back, the first thing she thought of was to use this son as a hostage to force King Yan to fulfill his promise to cut the land......

This short-sighted, impatient and quick success, naturally was reprimanded by the Empress Dowager Zhao, and at the same time made Empress Yan die to King Zhao, in her eyes, this King Zhao is not as reliable as another half-brother Chang Anjun.

It's just that no matter how smart Chang'an Jun is, after all, he is just a feudal monarch who doesn't have much real power, how far can he help himself?

Just thinking about it, Empress Dowager Zhao turned around and found her youngest son, blamed him: "Although the third son of Yan Kingdom can make the old woman tease for a few days, he still has to go back after all, the old woman dreams of having a grandson, the two brothers of you, don't you redouble your efforts?" Especially you, Mingyue, your brother has married the queen, and your life's events should also have an eyebrow! In the two months since you left Handan, the clan ministers of Zhao State came to propose marriage for their daughters and sisters, and almost broke the threshold of the palace! If you want to see it, if there is a suitable and virtuous person, even if the status is lower, it is okay. ”

As soon as these words came out, Mingyue hurriedly came up to ask for the guilt, and at the same time said with a hippie smile: "Let the queen mother worry, in fact, there is just one thing that I want to ask the queen mother to call the shots!" ”

"Could it be related to your marriage?" Empress Dowager Zhao was very happy and asked him to speak quickly.

Mingyue solemnly bowed and said: "When the son was in Linzi, he was saved by the lady of Anpingjun's family, the grace of dripping water, when the spring reciprocated, I had nothing to repay, so I promised to be in harmony with her, life and death are inseparable, and I hope that the queen mother will allow it, and propose to Anpingjun for me!" ”

"Aren't you talking about Tian Jia?" Empress Dowager Zhao put away her smile, her son's affair in Linzi, she also asked Miao Xian to inquire carefully, especially the daughter of Anpingjun, she was very concerned, so she knew something that her son didn't know, so she said to Mingyue:

"Wu'er doesn't know, when you went to Yan Kingdom, Tian Jia had been crowned a princess by my brother of King Qi and moved into the palace to live, so I am afraid that this matter is not as simple as the words of the matchmaker of your parents......"
