Chapter 245: Marriage for Xiao Yumo and Cheng Biyao
Although he couldn't talk to the woman he had been missing for a long time, Yu Wenyin was not disappointed at all, on the contrary, seeing Ye Lingxi sleeping defenselessly in Xingliu Palace, Yu Wenyin felt very relieved.
Regardless of whether Ye Lingxi stayed in the Xingliu Palace sincerely or pretendedly, as long as she was here, Yu Wenyin would feel very relieved.
So, Yu Wenyin watched her sleeping face in front of Ye Lingxi's bed for two hours.
Ye Lingxi was so tired, although it was a nap, he still slept until the sun set and his stomach growled before he slowly woke up.
"Xi'er finally woke up?"
Ye Lingxi had just woken up, and his mind was still a little confused. Before her eyes were fully opened, she heard Yu Wenyin's happy voice, which frightened her subconsciously and suddenly woke up.
"Why are you here?!"
"Why can't I be here? This is my palace. ”
Faced with Ye Lingxi's huge reaction, Yu Wenyin asked rhetorically in an unkind tone.
"No, I mean...... Shouldn't you be dealing with state affairs? ”
Realizing that his attitude was a little inappropriate, Ye Lingxi hurriedly explained.
"It's okay, no matter how big the state affairs are, they are not as important as Xi'er."
In Ye Lingxi's view, Yu Wenyin seems to be a little addicted to playing the affectionate husband.
"Uh...... I'm afraid that's not appropriate...... The emperor still has to put state affairs first. ”
Ye Lingxi touched the non-existent beard on his chin, and admonished in the tone of a court minister.
"Hahaha!"
Ye Lingxi pretended to be an old man and successfully pleased Yu Wenyin.
"By the way, Your Majesty, have you done what you promised me before?"
This is the main purpose of Ye Lingxi and Yuwenyin's conversation, she deliberately wanted to mention this matter in Yuwenyin's extremely relaxed state, so as to observe Yuwenyin's subconscious reaction.
This time, Yuwen Yin really didn't do any tricks, Murong Chengan no longer posed any political threat to him, and the fruit of the Divine Tree of Astonation was fake, so there was no need for him to kill Murong Chengan at all.
What's more, Yu Wenyin knew in his heart that if he killed Murong Cheng'an, Ye Lingxi would definitely hate himself even if he didn't follow him, which was contrary to his original intention.
Therefore, Yuwen Yin happily let Murong Cheng'an out of the palace and did not carry out an assassination operation.
"That's nature, I'm the king of a country, and you don't have any jokes. Besides, what I promised Xi'er, I naturally have to do. ”
Ye Lingxi didn't look like Yu Wenyin was lying, so he was a little relieved.
Murong Cheng is easy to look at, his appearance and dress are extremely ordinary, as long as Yuwen Yin does not send people to chase and kill, even if his force value has not been restored, he should not encounter any great danger.
"Good! I believe in you! ”
Ye Lingxi also nodded happily.
Then the two fell into an awkward silence.
For Ye Lingxi, as long as Murong Cheng'an is safe, she has nothing to say to Yuwenyin.
For Yu Wenyin, he had a lot to say to Ye Lingxi, but he didn't know where to start.
"By the way, the emperor ......"
"That's right, Xi'er ......"
The two of them raised their heads at the same time, and they happened to open their mouths at the same time.
"Uh...... You speak first. ”
"Xi'er will speak first."
After an awkward pause of two seconds, the two spoke almost simultaneously.
Ye Lingxi frowned slightly, and Yu Wenyin embarrassedly brought his fist to his mouth and coughed lightly.
"I want to say are you hungry or not? I'm hungry and I want to eat. ”
Ye Lingxi was not interested in stiffening with Yu Wenyin, since there was nothing to talk about, let's eat something!
Yu Wenyin hurriedly called someone to pass the meal, and followed Ye Lingxi to have dinner in Xingliu Palace.
During the meal, the eunuchs around Yu Wenyin came to report, and the prince and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites came to ask for a meeting.
Ye Lingxi didn't pay attention to these people from beginning to end, so she enjoyed the food by herself, and didn't pay attention to it at all, let alone think that the prince and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites asked to see Yu Wenyin, just to find her own trouble.
"Xi'er, don't be afraid, I will deal with them."
Yuwen Yin picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, and then got up and left.
Ye Lingxi's mouth was stuffed with food, and he chewed and slandered his stomach...... Yu Wenyin's brain is really not very good now, his courtiers want to see him, what is she afraid of?!
Shaking his head helplessly, Ye Lingxi no longer cared, but continued to concentrate on eating.
However, soon, Ye Lingxi knew why Yu Wenyin said that......
It turned out that the news that Yu Wenyin brought the queen who had been missing for several months back to the palace from outside the palace soon spread throughout the palace, and the ministers of the court and the central government also knew about it.
The crown prince and Fu Cheng Baoguo already attached great importance to the etiquette system of the ancestors, Ye Lingxi wanted to find Yuwenyin to take a token out of the palace once, but was obstructed by Cheng Baoguo, and now he has disappeared for several months and returned, and it is not within the tolerance range of Cheng Baoguo.
In ancient times, the issue of women's chastity was very strict, and what Ye Lingxi did in the days of his disappearance was related to the face of Jun Anguo and the royal bloodline.
What's more, last time Ye Lingxi scolded Cheng Baoguo in the imperial study, Yu Wenyin also helped Ye Lingxi, this Liangzi, Ye Lingxi had already formed a relationship with Cheng Baoguo.
Cheng Baoguo and Cheng Baguio are father and daughter, with very similar temperaments and temperaments, as long as it is something they identify, they will pursue it brainlessly, and once they encounter someone who destroys what they think is "right", they will be resentful and look for opportunities to retaliate.
This time, it was Cheng Biyao who first heard some gossip from the daughters of other official families and informed Cheng Baoguo, so that Cheng Baoguo would know about Ye Lingxi's return to the palace so quickly, and pull the Ministry of Rites Shangshu to come over to find Ye Lingxi's trouble.
In the Imperial Study.
"Your Majesty, please forgive the old minister for saying bluntly, the queen mother has disappeared outside the palace for several months, what happened in this, the old minister does not know, and he does not dare to speculate."
"If the emperor loves the queen, he can also leave the queen in the harem."
"It's just that this queen should be a mother of the world, dignified and virtuous, and the queen is obviously far from this rule of the ancestors, and the old minister implores the emperor to set up another virtuous queen!"
Cheng Baoguo's words are sincere, and his heart and emotions for the country are moving, if you don't know, you really think that Cheng Baoguo is selfless!
The Ministry of Rites has always been Cheng Baoguo's lackey, no matter what Cheng Baoguo proposes, he will second, and this time is no exception.
Yu Wenyin glanced at Cheng Baoguo with an uncertain expression, and was very dissatisfied with Cheng Baoguo's behavior of coming to block him.
In Yu Wenyin's heart, only Ye Lingxi is worthy of being his queen, even if Ye Lingxi has been missing for a few months and stays with Murong Cheng'an, so what? His pattern is not limited to the love between men and women, and he doesn't care about this thing.
As long as Ye Lingxi can obediently be his queen after returning to the palace this time, he can not care about the previous few months, after all, he used to use soul magic on Ye Lingxi, and he was indeed a little unreasonable.
However, if Ye Lingxi's position is abolished now and she becomes an ordinary concubine, Yu Wenyin believes that with Ye Lingxi's temperament, she will definitely be even more unkind to herself, which is not the result that Yu Wenyin wants.
"The daughter of the prince and the prince has also reached the age of marriage, I don't know if the prince and the prince have a favorite candidate, so I will give her a marriage."
Yu Wenyin did not answer about the establishment of another queen, but mentioned Cheng Biyao's marriage, and deliberately pretended not to know the candidate Cheng Biyao liked.
"Old Minister......
Although it seems that Yu Wenyin is changing the topic, in fact, Cheng Baoguo Monkey Essence Monkey Spirit, naturally he can hear that Yu Wenyin's answer is about equivalent to proposing a disguised transaction.
Cheng Biyao has liked Xiao Yumo for many years, and vowed not to marry him, but the falling flowers are intentional and the flowing water is ruthless, and Cheng Baoguo is also heartbroken for this.
Before, Yu Wenyin had always avoided talking about this matter, and his posture of protecting Xiao Yumo was very obvious, but now he took the initiative to ask Cheng Baoguo, obviously giving Cheng Baoguo a chance to choose.
If Cheng Baoguo opens his mouth and proposes to like Xiao Yumo in General Xiao's Mansion, then Yu Wenyin can marry Xiao Yumo and Cheng Biyao, but at the same time, Cheng Baoguo can no longer mention the matter of setting up another queen.
This time and again, Yuwenyin is equivalent to using Xiao Yumo's lifelong happiness to keep Ye Lingxi's position as queen.
"The prince and the prince don't have to be restrained, which family's son you like, even if you mention it to me."
Yu Wenyin saw Cheng Baoguo's hesitation, hurriedly fanned the flames, and leaned back on the back of the chair with a relaxed and lazy movement.
"Back to the emperor, the old minister feels that Xiao Yumo, the son of General Xiao's family, has both ability and political integrity, is modest, and has not yet been married, so he is the right person, but I don't know if the little girl is worthy."
In the end, Cheng Baoguo still chose to give up the maintenance of the dignity of the royal family and solve Cheng Baguio's lifelong affairs first.
"Haha, the prince is too humble! It's okay, then I will do a good deed today and marry a pair of talented and beautiful people! ”
Yu Wenyin waved his hand, lifted the pen and began to draft the decree, and the action was smooth, and soon handed over the holy decree to Cheng Baoguo.
A month later, it was the wedding day of Xiao Yumo and Cheng Baguio.
Cheng Baoguo received the coveted marriage decree, and his heart was very excited! He is such a daughter as Cheng Baguio, who has been infatuated with Xiao Yumo for so long, and now he can finally get what he wants!
"Old minister, thank the emperor for his grace!"
"Okay, is there anything else going on with the crown prince? Let's go home early if it's okay! I'm tired of ......."
"The old minister obeys."
This time, Cheng Baoguo didn't drag the mud and water, and left tightly holding the holy decree, as if he was afraid that Yuwenyin would regret it.
The crown prince and the prince had no opinions, and the Ministry of Rites naturally retired.
Ye Lingxi's position as the queen was stabilized by Yu Wenyin's marriage decree.
In the Xingliu Palace.
"Queen Mother, the slave heard about something, I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
Wen Ruo is a clever palace maid, she is simply a "bag inquiry", she can always hear all kinds of gossip and gossip in the palace, and then return to Ye Lingxi in time.
"You say, if you have any interesting gossip, you should talk about it!"
Ye Lingxi leisurely ate the after-dinner fruit, and replied to Wen Ruo indifferently.
"The slave and maid heard...... The emperor may ...... May be ...... separately Another queen ......"
Wen Ruo trembled and told the news she heard, for fear that Ye Lingxi would be furious when she heard it.
However, the storm that Wen Ruo imagined did not come, and Ye Lingxi continued to eat the fruit, as if he was not affected by the news in the slightest.
In fact, Ye Lingxi really doesn't care about anything else and doesn't set up another queen! She doesn't like Yu Wenyin again!
"Oh......"
"Isn't the queen in a hurry at all...... This is no small matter! Taking advantage of the fact that the emperor has not officially decreed, does the queen want to go again...... Fight for it? ”
Wen Ruoke is much more anxious than Ye Lingxi!
"Ahh I understand! ”
Ye Lingxi suddenly spit out the grape core in his mouth and slapped it on the table with one palm.
Just now, Ye Lingxi didn't notice that it was Cheng Baoguo, who had an enmity with her, who wanted to see Yu Wenyin!
Thinking of the inexplicable words that Yu Wenyin said when he was leaving, the witty Ye Lingxi quickly guessed the causal relationship, which was almost consistent with the facts.
