Chapter 717: Dugu made a concession
Although Yang Su is meticulous, he still can't hide from his wife Zheng Qiye's eyes.
When Zheng Qiye's subordinates found out that Yang Su had spent a lot of money to buy a mansion in Mingzefang in the east city of Chang'an, and reported the news to his housewife, Zheng Qiye initially mistakenly thought that Yang Su had an outer room behind his back, and did not rush to expose Yang Su, but wanted to give him a rape to catch him in bed, so that he would never be able to raise his head in front of him.
Later, the person she sent to spy on Yang Su reported to her that after Yang Su bought the mansion in Mingze Fang with a lot of money, he went to the Zongzheng Department to get a license to open a nun temple, and planned to open a nun temple in that house.
When Zheng Qiye heard the news, he couldn't help but be a little confused: even if Yang Su wanted to buy a house in Chang'an City for the concubine he had accepted on his back, it seemed that he didn't need to do the things that men and women did under the guise of opening a nun temple.
After thinking about it, Zheng Qiye couldn't guess what her husband wanted to do like this, so he told Dugu Jialuo about it when he entered the palace one day to chat with the queen.
Dugu Jialuo also felt that this matter was quite incomprehensible, out of hatred for Yang Su's wild words a few years ago, and deep sympathy for her best friend Zheng Qiye, she took the initiative to take over the matter, and ordered He Zhu'er to arrange for a capable person to keep an eye on the house that Yang Su bought in Mingzefang in Dongcheng, so that when the traitor was caught in bed in the future, she would stand up for her sister and give Yang Su a cruel lesson.
As far as Zheng Qiye is concerned, since he sued his husband to the emperor and queen as early as five or six years ago, he is naturally not worried about the scandal of his family at this time, so he agreed on the spot that the queen would stand up for him and give Yang Su, a negative man, a resounding slap in the face.
In order to ensure that this matter is done to Yang Jian's satisfaction, so as to pave the way for Yang Jian to allow him to take a concubine in the future, Yang Su specially asked Yang Jian to check and put forward his opinions before transferring the red whisk girl Feng Xiaoxi from the mansion to the mansion in Mingzefang.
As a result, although Yang Jian specially chose to go to Mingzefang quietly with Yang Su in the evening twilight, and changed his disguise, he was still recognized by the little eunuch sent by the queen to monitor the mansion.
The little eunuch saw that Yang Su took the emperor to visit the mansion privately, and he was frightened, so he didn't dare to hide it, so he immediately ran back to the palace and reported to the queen 1510.
Dugu Jialuo never dreamed that he was bent on standing up for his good sister Zheng Qiye and punishing Yang Su severely, but it ended up on his head, and in anger, he wanted to expose Yang Su's ugly behavior of pimping him and leading him out of the palace when Yang Jian returned to Zhengyang Palace to rest that night.
However, Dugu Jialuo's identity, experience, brains, and insights are far above Zheng Qiye, and when she calms down a little, she feels that it is better to keep a tacit understanding with Yang Jian about this matter, lest the husband and wife tear their faces and make others look at the jokes and not tell them, and they can't get Yang Jian's heart back.
As soon as he thought of this, Dugu Jialuo continued to think along this line of thought, and couldn't help but start to reflect on his husband and wife relationship over the years: Did he restrain his husband too strictly, so that Yang Jian would come together with a romantic person like Yang Su, and join forces to steal women outside? The emperors of all dynasties had three palaces and six courtyards, but Yang Jian only had two or three concubines who were not very outstanding as decorations, so how could he not go outside to steal fish?
Dugu Jialuo sat alone in the palace, wiped his tears for a while, learned from the pain, and finally decided to make major concessions to Yang Jian in the matter of adopting a partial concubine, so as to maintain the harmony of the husband and wife.
So, on the night when Yang Jian inspected the mansion arranged for him by Yang Su to meet with Hongfu from the spot, and returned to the palace from Mingzefang, Dugu Jialuo euphemistically proposed to his husband the hope that he would be allowed to select one or two women with good character from the captured members of the Nanchen royal family to enrich the palace.
As soon as Yang Jian heard that the queen took the initiative to allow him to take a concubine, he humbly thought that the queen's escape from the palace today had been discovered by the queen, so he shirked and said: "I have a deep relationship with the queen, and I have given birth to five boys, five girls and ten children, where do I still have such thoughts?" As he spoke, he came up and made love to Dugu Jialuo.
Dugu Jialuo sighed in his heart, gently pushed Yang Jian away, and then persuaded him: "The concubine body persuaded the emperor to accept the Chen woman as a concubine, not all out of selfishness, thinking that the concubine is getting older, it is difficult to serve the emperor like in the past, to find a suitable person to replace the concubine, to serve the emperor physically and mentally, and better govern the country, but worried that although the emperor raised troops to destroy Nanchen, after all, the north and the south have been divided for a long time, if you can't use both requisition and appeasement, soft and hard, Jiangnan will be in chaos again sooner or later, and so, It is better to marry the Nanchen royal family as soon as possible, in order to stabilize the hearts of the Jiangnan scholars, and it is not without benefit to be truly naturalized in Jiangnan. ”
Yang Jian listened to Dugu Jialuo's sincere words, and what he said was extremely reasonable, he couldn't help but believe a little bit about her sudden change of attitude, and took the initiative to ask him to take a concubine, got up and left the bed, paced back and forth in the dormitory with his hands on his back, and said to his wife: "I really have no intention of taking a concubine, but listening to what the queen said, it is indeed in line with the truth after Chen Chen was destroyed." It's better to do this, and according to the previous practice, the queen will come forward, and have the right to choose one or two Nanchen royal women for me to fill in the harem, and I will return to Zhengyang Palace to live in the future. ”
Dugu Jialuo listened to her husband's insincere words, and felt both hateful and ridiculous, so she teased Yang Jian with words in her words: "The concubine heard that there are many beautiful women in Jiangnan, as long as Your Majesty can hold it at that time, the concubine has nothing to say, but she must also consider it for the sister surnamed Chen, it is better for the emperor to let the sister surnamed Chen give birth to a child as soon as possible, so as not to be ......desolate when she is old."
Yang Jian's face turned red, and he didn't know how to answer.
Half a month later, Dugu Jialuo personally came forward and selected Chen Weiyang, the youngest sister of Chen Shubao, the queen of Southern Chen, to enter the palace as a partial concubine for Yang Jian. Yang Jian himself got such a young and beautiful concubine as Chen Weiyang, and he did not forget Yang Su, who was enthusiastic about pimping himself, so he pointed out Chen Shubao's other sister, Chen Changle, who was named Princess Lechang, to Yang Su as a concubine.
Yang Su was naturally satisfied with the emperor's marriage, and openly took Chen Changle back to his mansion as if he wanted to demonstrate to Zheng Qiye, and entered the cave room with her.
Zheng Qiye resented Yang Su in his heart, but because the emperor gave him a marriage, it was inconvenient to directly find Yang Su and Chen Changle's bad luck, so he ran to Zhengyang Palace to cry to the queen, asking Dugu Jialuo to stand up for her, forcing Yang Su to drive Chen Changle out of the house.
Dugu Jialuo knew that Yang Jian took Yang Su to marry a concubine in order to divert the attention of the courtiers and avoid making the courtiers and the many Jiangnan Yiguan clans who moved to Chang'an feel that the emperor had other intentions in marrying the Nanchen royal family, so Haosheng appeased Zheng Qiye, and scolded her with something like men are not a good thing to vent the resentment in her heart, and then persuaded her to turn a blind eye to this matter, and it was over.
