Chapter 039: Concubine Jia
Everyone put away the coveted color of the beauty, sat upright, and did not dare to relax. The atmosphere was a little solemn at the moment, and everyone in the hall could hear their heartbeats, and they all bowed their heads, not daring to speak.
Laughter rang out from above, "General Lin, what is this doing?" Hurry up, I just saw the beauty happy for a while, just say it casually. Zhao Sizhuo got up, personally helped him up, and then said to everyone: "The folk girl is Hongzhao, her appearance is peerless, I really like it, and she is named 'Yu Beauty', and she will serve with you." ”
Everyone was shocked in their hearts, this folk woman turned out to be the same as the daughter of Zhengqing of Zhengsanpin Taichang Temple. It seems that His Majesty really likes it very much.
Hong Zhao smiled lightly, "Your Majesty, the concubine must serve Your Majesty well." The unflattered look made Zhao Sizhuo's eyes flash with a hint of appreciation.
"Your Majesty, the courtiers have grown up in Jinling since they were children, and they have never seen such a beautiful woman as a fairy, so I don't know if I can take the liberty of it....... May I ask if Yu Meiren is from Jinling? Zhao Minjia was not angry, this woman's origin is unknown, today she completely stole her limelight, was favored by the emperor, and was named a "beauty", you must know that folk women are fortunate to enter the palace, and they also start from palace maids or concubines.
"Minjia, be cautious!" Zhao Yu was also aggrieved in his heart, on his territory, Lin Guangyao brushed his face today, and after he expressed his intention to send a girl to the palace, he actually rushed to send a stunning beauty to the emperor, and even slapped him in the face of the king of southern Jiangsu in public. However, Lin Guangyao's power is monstrous, and he can't be offended.
Zhao Sizhuo smiled at the corner of his mouth, drank the wine in the wine in his hand, and looked very happy, "There are beauties in the south of the Yangtze River, let me guess...... Is the poppy from Jiangnan? ”
Zhao Minjia saw that the emperor not only blamed her for disturbing her interest, but also followed her words and asked Yu Meiren, and couldn't help but be happy in her heart, it seems that her desire to enter the palace is still possible. She glanced at her father on the side, hoping that he would not be discouraged and try again.
Yu Meiren, who was suddenly asked, of course, knew in her heart that Zhao Minjia was coming at her, but she was not in a hurry or annoyed, blessed her body, and said calmly: "Your Majesty has good eyesight, yes, the concubine is from Yangzhou, her parents died of illness a few years ago, and the concubine is alone, and she has been adopted by an ordinary household so far." ”
"The beauty of the poppy life, and such a long-sleeved dance, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like an ordinary family can be raised....." Zhao Minjia had something to say, but he didn't say anything, he only smiled shyly, "I can only praise the natural beauty of the poppy, let me wait for a good life to envy~" After finishing speaking, he raised his head and glanced at Zhao Sizhuo's reaction quickly, and saw that he had no displeased look, and his heart was relieved.
Everyone looked: one side is aggressive, and the other side advances and retreats. Suddenly, he felt more pity for Yu Meiren in his heart, and he was even more dissatisfied with Zhao Minjia's oppression of people by relying on her identity. But because of the face of the king of southern Sunan, no one dared to speak out for the beauty.
Lin Guangyao looked displeased, and said coldly: "How can ordinary people not produce women who can sing and dance, in the Huaiyang area, elegant customs abound. The king of Sunan must be very strict with his goddaughter on weekdays, and he is not allowed to go out, and it is understandable that he is a little lonely. ”
"You ........." Zhao Minjia was choked white, and said in front of the emperor that she was lonely and unheard, where would she put her face. Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Zhao Yu with a knife in the eye, and interrupted loudly, "What General Lin said is that the little girl has been in the palace since she was a child, and she is very quiet and well-behaved. ”
This is not leaky, although he agrees with Lin Guangyao's words on the surface, he secretly praises his daughter between the lines. Lin Guangyao reacted, but he couldn't say anything, so he had to swallow this breath alive.
On weekdays, no matter how harmless the old fox is to humans and animals, when he protects his cubs, he knows that he is extremely cunning and difficult to deal with.
Zhao Sizhuo knew it in his heart, smiled but didn't say anything, he wanted to see what else the king of Sunan had not revealed.
The purpose of the king of Sunan today's trip is well known to everyone. The words have come to this, if you fail to send a woman to the palace today, you will become a laughing stock in the world. Zhao Yu thought about it for a while, and decided to simply gamble, and knelt down and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Weichen is not talented, the third generation has accumulated virtue and reincarnation, and the blessing of the Meng ancestor is the same as Your Majesty. Although the minister is the 'king of southern Jiangsu', he always remembers that he is His Majesty's courtier, who eats the king's fortune and bears the king's worries. Weichen's family has been in a wealthy place in the south of the Yangtze River for a long time, and they have taken root in Jinling, but they can't share the emperor's worries, and the minister is really guilty in his heart. Now I see that His Majesty is really the lord of the Ming Dynasty, and Weichen is willing to send his young daughter into the palace, accompany His Majesty, take the minister as the emperor, and contribute to the Jiangshan Society. ”
After speaking, Zhao Yu leaned over and kowtowed, making a sound, extremely pious. Zhao Minjia also hurriedly stepped forward and knelt behind her father, feeling both apprehensive and excited.
The silence in the hall returned to silence, and Zhao Sizhuo's eyes were playful, and he was about to make a noise to push one or two, and then see how determined the king of Sunan was. Unexpectedly, Lin Guangyao did not want his wish to be fulfilled, and admonished: "Your Majesty, this move by the King of Sunan must not be allowed!" The king of Sunan and His Majesty are both of the same clan of the Xingyun Zhao family, and the marriage within the clan is really against the etiquette of our dynasty, and it is normal. The loyalty of the king of southern Jiangsu can be seen, but this move is not advisable. I hope Your Majesty thinks twice! ”
Many of the people in the hall were Lin Guangyao's henchmen, and when they saw this, they also stepped forward and knelt on the ground, echoing: "What General Lin said is reasonable, the relatives of the clan, how can they be married, I hope Your Majesty will think twice!" ”
"I hope Your Majesty thinks twice!"
Zhao Sizhuo and Zhao Yu were both cold in their hearts, how many henchmen of the Lin family were in this court, and Wei Lin Guangyao was the first to look forward.
"Your Majesty, General Lin's words are wrong! As we all know: the Nebula Zhao clan has lasted for two hundred years, and the clansmen are all over the world. The ancestor of Weichen is just a side branch of the Xingyun Zhao family, and because of his meritorious efforts in quelling the rebellion, he was exceptionally named the 'King of Southern Sun', living in Jinling. Although it has the name of a fief, it does not have any real power, and it is prominent and powerful in the name of "Wangye" outside, but it is different from the bloodline of "King Huainan" and other relatives. The minister is mediocre and incompetent, His Majesty and the former emperor are benevolent, and they have never pushed Enge to remove the ministers, and the ministers are grateful in their hearts, and they just want to do their best to share the worries and solve problems for His Majesty. The little girl is demure and intelligent, and she has been personally raised by Weichen since she was a child, and she has been close to Your Majesty for three generations and five suits as early as possible, and it is absolutely feasible to enter the palace to serve Your Majesty, and it is in line with etiquette and law, and it is more in line with ethics. I hope that Your Majesty will allow a loyal and filial piety of the ministers! ”
"I hope Your Majesty will be fulfilled!" Success or failure in this move, Zhao Minjia also kowtowed, and echoed while the iron was hot.
"Your Majesty........" Lin Guangyao was about to say something, but seeing that Zhao Sizhuo's expression was wrong, he hurriedly shut up.
"The king of southern Jiangsu is loyal and filial, and voluntarily sent his daughter to the palace, sharing my worries, and I am very pleased. From now on, Zhao Minjia, the daughter of the king of southern Jiangsu, was named 'Concubine Jia', and was canonized after entering the palace. Residence in 'Huaxu Palace'. Let's all go flat. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Concubine, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Some people in the hall were happy and some were worried, Hong Zhao glanced at the three people kneeling on the ground, and he was already thinking about it.
