Chapter 327: I'm in a hurry
This morning, Zhu Huan took the time to look through the papers.
He was actually quite curious about Huo Yixiao's sudden marriage ceremony on the agenda, but after all, it was in the yamen, not a good time to say these things.
Moreover, he has to go to Qingyun Palace to accompany Tang Zhaoyi for lunch at noon today, and the time spent back and forth is definitely not as generous as simply using a little bit in the yamen.
After finishing reading the copy in his hand, Zhu Huan got up and entered the palace.
Tang Zhaoyi was there, and lunch had already been prepared.
In the end, it is a person in the palace, and there is a lot of news.
Tang Zhaoyi said: "I heard that Mrs. Ding'an Hou was recruited in Changning Palace. ”
Zhu Huan raised his head and looked stunned: "When?" ”
"It's quite urgent, please ask Mrs. Hou to come to the palace this afternoon," Tang Zhaoyi said, "I heard that Yi Xiao came out of the imperial study in the morning and went to see the concubine, is it related?" ”
Zhu Huan coughed lightly.
That is, Zhu Huan eats Siwen, chews and swallows slowly, if this is a person who eats in a hurry, I am afraid that he will choke.
"What Yi Xiao told me is that he asked the concubine to discuss the marriage with the Ding'an Hou Mansion." Zhu Huan said.
Tang Zhaoyi immediately understood why his son wanted to speak and stopped.
After all, this "inside story" is strange and sudden.
Although they all knew in advance that Huo Yixiao would marry Wen Yan, it should not be an unexpected change at this juncture.
"I'm in a hurry," Tang Zhaoyi smiled, "I didn't expect the concubine to be in a hurry." ”
As a harem concubine, Tang Zhaoyi knows Concubine Huo well.
In the past, Empress Dowager Shen was the one who was resolute, tough and stubborn.
Concubine Huo is gentle, under the Empress Dowager Shen, she does not show her edge, but because the emperor respects her, she overcomes the rigidity of the Empress Dowager Shen with softness, and she does not suffer much.
Later, Empress Dowager Shen passed away, and Concubine Huo became the only one among the "elders" in the palace who could speak, but she was still such a gentle person.
Then Wen Tun suddenly became anxious, which made Tang Zhaoyi very surprised.
After lunch, Zhu Huan wanted to rush back to the yamen.
Tang Zhaoyi didn't say anything to Zhu Huan, and sent her son away, so she discussed it softly with the grandmother beside her.
"My son is still a few months older, and the emperor should be asked to make decisions about the marriage......"
Mama said: "The fourth prince has a satisfactory candidate for himself, isn't there no one we have a crush on yet!" ”
"I thought the same way earlier, thinking that Yi Xiao would have a year there, but I didn't expect that he suddenly became anxious," Tang Zhaoyi said, "Now I can't let Huan'er go, in his heart, the Danqing inscription ranks first, and when he remembers a girl's house, I don't know when."
I don't have to let him compete with Yi Xiao, it's just that Yi Xiao wants to get married, and it is impossible for the emperor to say nothing about it, once he recognizes it......
The fourth is listed in front of the third, which is not always a meaning.
Even if I really don't recognize it, my son is not young anymore, and he should have someone who knows cold and hot. ”
Mama listened and nodded again and again: "Niangniang, if you let the emperor call the shots, there must be a candidate."
The emperor is busy with government affairs all day long, and the outstanding girl's family in Beijing, he only knows other people's fathers and brothers, but does not know the girl herself.
Pick, it's still up to you.
Besides, our Highness looks like a gentle person, in fact, don't blame the slave for speaking more straightforwardly, Your Highness is also a little awkward.
You insisted on picking one for him that he didn't like, and it hurt the relationship between you and His Royal Highness as a mother and son. ”
Tang Zhaoyi didn't know this truth, snorted, helpless and headache: "I still say that, he likes the Danqing inscription, what girl is not a girl, there is no picture of the lady on the scroll to look pleasing to the eye." ”
Mama couldn't help but smile and said, "Then you can choose one for him who can draw and know calligraphy!" A talented woman, and His Royal Highness can understand the calligraphy and painting skills and the inheritance of masterpieces, even if he doesn't give birth to a little love between men and women, at least he won't reject people thousands of miles away, right? ”
Tang Zhaoyi nodded thoughtfully: "You let me think about it." ”
In Qingyun Palace, Tang Zhaoyi pondered back and forth; Outside Changning Palace, Old Madam Gui looked serious.
In the morning, she had just finished using up the goat's milk soup, and someone in the palace came to spread the word that it was Concubine Huo who invited Mrs. Hou to enter the palace in the afternoon.
Rao is old lady Gui sees herself as well-informed, and the old ginger is a piece, and her hands tremble twice.
Good and good, why is that?
With no bottom in her heart and no timidity on her face, Mrs. Gui took out the clothes that could be worn into the palace, and combed her hair shiny.
Then, let Mama Liu ask Wen Yan to borrow Mama Huang.
The reason is also true, Mama Liu has never been to the palace, and she is afraid that she will lose her sense of proportion in advancing and retreating, and it is still the most suitable stable person like Mama Huang.
Of course, Wen Yan will not refuse.
At this moment, Mama Huang took Mrs. Gui's hand and walked into the gate of Changning Palace.
Mama Huang smiled and asked the little palace maid who led the way: "The concubine asked our old lady to ......."
The little palace maid pursed her lips and smiled: "I don't know the details, but it's definitely a good thing." ”
Old Madam Gui's heart fell halfway.
At the same time, she went through the scene she had imagined when she met the concubine in her mind.
Everything must be done in mind.
The more you prepare, the less you can go wrong.
This is true of learning, and the same is true of nobles.
Mama Deng led people to Concubine Huo.
Mrs. Gui saluted respectfully.
Concubine Huo invited someone to take a seat and said with a smile: "Although they are all old, I can vaguely remember what Mrs. Hou looked like when she was young." ”
Old Madam Gui was busy and modest.
When she married into the Ding'an Hou Mansion, she entered the palace to thank her.
At that time, the capital had not yet been moved, and the old lady kowtowed to the Shen family, who was still the queen.
At that time, Concubine Huo was not in a high position, and the two were just a photo in the palace.
It is impossible for Mrs. Gui to remember Concubine Huo at that time, of course, when the concubine said this, it is just a conversation, not really remember.
Concubine Huo took a sip of tea: "I invited Mrs. Hou here today to talk about the marriage between Yi Xiao and Wen Yan." The six ceremonies are complicated, walk up early, catch up, if there is a good day before the year, it will be done before the year, and if it doesn't work, it will be the beginning of spring. What does Mrs. Hou think? ”
Old Madam Gui was stunned.
Why did she think so?
She thought there was another year!
And as a result, this suddenly rushed to this year?
Could it be that something happened that she didn't know about, and she wanted to be happy?
Doubts are doubts, and you can't push them on your lips.
Besides, this marriage is what the old lady is looking forward to, and the last scenery in her life is betting on marrying her granddaughter!
Although it is certain, I am also worried about long nights and dreams.
Now, with a few months less, she can get a few more months of good sleep, so why not?
"We don't have any reason to disagree," Mrs. Gui said with a smile, "It's these six rites, how to handle them, we have to ask the palace for more guidance." ”
Concubine Huo said: "The six rites are arranged, and the Ministry of Rites will come forward, and I will take the palm." ”
