Chapter 087: Tears in the Border City (Second Watch)

Zheng Mansion, after Zheng Yuyan learned that Huang Yi'an was canonized, he was so angry that he almost crushed the veil. Watermark Ad Test Watermark Ad Test

Why?

Why is she Huang Yi'an so good?

First Zhang Xi was very close to her, and then Princess Shouyang favored her!

Finally, she worked hard to win the first place at the snow appreciation meeting, and won the attention and appreciation of Princess Shouyang, thinking that she had the chance to win, but in a blink of an eye, what she got was the news that Huang Yi'an was canonized!

Isn't Huang Yi'an going to marry into the British government? For this reason, Huang Yining also stirred up the situation of Mingyi, so that Mingyi was kicked out of the British government.

But why did Huang Yi'an come to compete with them for the queen's position in a blink of an eye? !

Huang Yi'an can't see them like this, okay?

Zheng Chengxian saw this very openly, and persuaded Zheng Yuyan to say: "Good daughter, if you don't want to be a queen, you can still be a favorite concubine!" Look at Emperor Xianzong, isn't he the only one who has favored Wan Guifei in his life? It's good to get a name, but if you can't get it, we can still think of ways to get some benefits!

"You have to be patient and wait, and when the edict of the queen is officially issued, you will choose the second concubine. Maybe my son's glory will be at that time? ”

Zheng Yuyan subconsciously refused to enter the palace as a concubine, but now, she can only press it down for the time being and wait for the news of the concubine.

……

On November 20, the edict was officially issued and spread to the world.

Mingyi, Zheng Yuyan and others were unwilling, and they were also quietly waiting for the announcement of the candidates for the second concubine.

However, what they didn't expect was that what they were waiting for was the news that the emperor was sympathetic to the border soldiers who fought bloodily and resisted foreign humiliation, so they bowed to self-reflection, self-denial and diligence, and decided not to choose a concubine for the time being!

The dream of entering the palace was shattered, and I don't know how many people were lost and resentful.

……

After the emperor's edict not to choose a concubine was issued, Huang Wei and the Wang family were quietly relieved, although they somehow did not know it.

Her own daughter understands that she is the most impatient with those intrigues and selfishness who pour out each other, otherwise she would not have had doubts about her marriage with Zhang Lan because of the entanglement between Ming Yi and Zhang Chi.

If you want to talk about where there is the most intrigue and mutual intrigue in this world, it is naturally the harem.

There are 3,000 beauties in the harem, and in order to compete for favor, they have to use some unsightly means.

After all, not everyone can be like Emperor Xiaozong, and there is only Empress Zhang in her life.

In order to comfort his daughter, Wang hurriedly told Huang Yi'an the news of the emperor's edict not to choose a concubine for the time being.

Huang Yi'an was stunned when he learned about it.

In the previous life, as soon as the edict was issued, the emperor announced the candidates for the second concubine according to the ancestral system.

Why is there such a change in this life?

Could it be true, as the edict said, because the emperor took pity on the soldiers who fought bloodily on the northwest frontier and did not dare to covet personal pleasure?

But even if there is such a change, so what?

She didn't want to be the queen, not because the emperor chose a concubine sooner or later, but because she hated the life represented by the identity of the queen.

Long years, endless loneliness.

Trembling, uneasy nights......

Besides, in the previous life, the Zheng family was defeated in this post-election concubine, and it was not until the ninth year of Tianyou that they entered the palace, and it took another two years before they won the favor of the emperor and favored them for the rest of their lives.

Therefore, whether the emperor immediately chose the second concubine did not mean anything to her.

……

The edict commending the military exploits and the letter from the family arrived in the northwest at the same time.

The British Duke looked at the thin but heavy family letter, and did not know how to explain it to his young son, who had not yet recovered.

In order to prevent the news of the two families from discussing their relationship from reaching the ears of people with ulterior motives and causing trouble, the British Duchess only said in the letter that Huang Yi'an was appointed as the queen of the edict in the palace, but did not mention that the two families looked at each other and worried about comforting Zhang Lan.

However, things have already happened, and there will never be no traces, especially in the hearts of the people involved.

The British duke hesitated for a long time, but finally stood up, walked out of the public house, and went to the backyard.

Zhang Lan has been recuperating here since he was rescued from the chaos.

When the British public pushed the door in, Zhang Lan was exercising back and forth in the room on crutches.

"Why don't you rest?" The British Duke frowned, stepped forward and helped Zhang Lan sit down on the chair.

Zhang Lan smiled: "The child is much better. The arrow didn't hurt the lungs at the beginning......"

Speaking of this, the smile on Zhang Lan's face dimmed.

That arrow, if it weren't for Captain Wang's sacrifice to save him, I'm afraid that even if the Da Luo Immortal came, he wouldn't be able to save him......

The British Duke sighed and said: "Don't worry, Captain Wang sacrificed his life for the country, the court gave generous benefits, and graced his eldest son to join the Royal Forest Army, which can be regarded as avoiding his worries after death." ”

Zhang Lan nodded, but felt very uncomfortable.

No matter how many bereavement rewards the court gives, they can't get back the life of Captain Wang......

"By the way, Your Majesty praised you for your bravery and fearlessness, and specially promoted you to the rank of General Wude, and you were promoted to three levels in a row." The British are fair.

Zhang Lan clenched his fists in the direction of the capital, and said with a reluctant smile: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long Enhao." ”

Half of this military exploit belongs to Captain Wang. If it weren't for Captain Wang's sacrifice of his life, he wouldn't have been able to enjoy this glory.

The British Duke nodded, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "The northwest is calm, Your Majesty's wedding is about to be, the Haiyan River is clear, and the people can rest assured that they will have a good year." ”

Zhang Lan asked in surprise: "Your Majesty's wedding is imminent?" The Queen's people have been chosen? ”

After asking, without waiting for the British public to answer, he said to himself: "It has been nearly a year since the edict was issued in the first month, and it is time to decide." ”

He asked casually: "I just don't know, which lady is it?" ”

As he spoke, he held a pot and poured tea for the British public.

"The daughter of Huang Wei, deputy envoy of the Ministry of Industry."

Zhang Lan looked up in amazement, his face full of shock.

"The water is overflowing." The British Duke reached out and took the teapot and sighed.

Zhang Lan was stunned and let the British Duke take the teapot, and his face turned pale.

Seeing this, the British public pushed a cup of hot tea to him and said, "Drink hot tea first." ”

Zhang Lan took it in a daze, mechanically brought it to his lips, and drank it.

"Hot ......"

The British duke hurried to take it.

But it was still a step too late, and Zhang Lan had already poured the whole cup of tea into it.

The eyes are also steamed by the hot tea, and a layer of water vapor is burned.

"Let's see if it's burned." The British duke hurriedly got up and called for a military doctor.

"Father, you don't have to." Zhang Lan was burned by the hot tea from his mouth, but he couldn't withstand the dull pain in his heart, and there was endless remorse.

Why did he insist on going back to Beijing and then proposing marriage?

Why couldn't he have asked the matchmaker to marry earlier?

Why don't you marry her home before you leave Beijing?

How could there be such a change today......

But there was a faint voice in his heart that said, if the two became close early, but if there was no Captain Wang to block the arrow for him to die, then what if she was left alone in this world?

Tears gushed out.

Even if he was trapped in the enemy army and desperately trying to survive, the young son never shed a single tear, but now he is crying like this......

The British Duke sighed, did not speak, and quietly stayed aside, letting Zhang Lan cry enough.

Cry, just cry out.

……

Zhang Lan cried for a long time before he held back his tears, and said hoarsely: "Father, all the family letters related to each other have been burned, and the second and third brothers should also be instructed." She, she's now the queen, if these things are known......"

"Don't worry!" The British Duke raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, comforting, "Your mother and I will arrange everything!" ”

Zhang Lan nodded, sitting there with empty eyes, silently like a statue.
