Chapter 65: The Marriage Turmoil
The weather was fine, the sky was cloudless, and only the cicadas chirped one after another, and the noisy people were restless.
Gu Yanting stood in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, uneasy. On the top of the head is a gilded "righteous light", but it is unusually dazzling. The emperor wore a blue cable flower tuan Fushou tribute satin robe, and sat in front of the palace and looked at him quietly. Gu Yanting was sweating like rain, and his heart tightened for a while, the emperor Fang Caizhao came to discuss the rebellion in Miao Jiang with a few colleagues, but after saying everything, he left him alone, he couldn't help but feel uneasy, and suddenly heard the emperor say slowly: "Jing Han is not too young this year, right?" ”
Gu Yanting didn't know what the emperor meant, so he only replied: "Jing Han was born in the fifty-second year of Kangxi, and there are three out of twenty. ”
The emperor hooked his lips slightly, "In this way, it is also the age to marry a wife and establish a family." ”
Gu Zhiting was shocked, and he broke out in a cold sweat, but he heard the emperor say again: "Fucha Zhishan, the pearl of Li Furong of the Fucha clan, is twenty-eight years old this year, dignified and elegant, and is the cousin of the queen. ”
Gu Yuting hurriedly knelt on the ground, leaned over and said: "The emperor gave me a marriage, and the minister deeply felt the emperor's favor and was grateful, but the child was stubborn, and he was only afraid of ...... I'm afraid I won't be worthy of Miss Fucha......"
After finishing the word, it took all the strength of the whole body, and the top of his head didn't hear a response, Gu Yanting's body was tense, and when he was almost stiff, he finally heard the emperor say lightly: "You go back to discuss this matter with Jing Han and then make a decision." ”
Gu Yanting wanted to say something, but he heard the emperor wave his hand, as if he was extremely tired: "Kneel down." ”
Gu Yanting had no choice but to kneel down and walk out.
The afternoon sun shines down through the gaps in the trees, casting one blurry shadow after another on the ground, and the wisteria in front of the corridor is in full bloom, like a purple waterfall, shining brightly.
Gu Yanzhao got off a business, and after passing through the verandah, he was about to go back to the house to rest, but he didn't want to see the two people sitting in the flower hall from a distance, he was slightly stunned, it should be the time to take a nap, but why were his parents sitting in the flower hall? After a little thought, he entered the flower hall and asked for a greeting: "Father, mother." ”
Mrs. Gu looked at him with a sad face, Gu Yanting also had a solemn face, Gu Yanzhao saw that his parents were so uneasy, so he asked, "Father, what happened?" ”
President Gu Yan let out a long sigh, "Zhao'er, are you still thinking about Miss Shen in your heart?" ”
Gu Yanzhao might as well have his father ask like this, and he was stunned for a moment, thinking of Su Yi's heart is a pain, that kind of sorrow and desolation only makes people feel very depressed and lonely, the sorrow in his eyes is overflowing, and he said in a deep voice: "The child has no chance with her in this life, and she no longer dares to hope for extravagance." ”
"That's fine." Mrs. Gu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw her son say this, and said with a smile, "Today, the emperor called your father to go, saying that he was going to give you a marriage, it was Zhishan of the Fucha family, and she and the queen were cousins......
"Mother!" Gu Yanzhao stopped him loudly, "My son doesn't want to start a family now. ”
Mrs. Gu frowned and said: "Zhao'er, you have already reached the age of starting a family, and that Zhishan is also a famous lady, with a beautiful appearance and both virtue and art, which is not inferior to Shen Suyi, what are you dissatisfied with?" ”
Gu Yanzhao was just silent, Mrs. Gu said for a long time and saw that he was unmoved, so she glanced at Gu Yanting, and Gu Yanting said: "Zhao'er, if you don't want to marry, you don't want to be reluctant to be a father, but this marriage was proposed by the emperor, and it is the queen's relatives, how can you shirk it if you are called a father?" ”
Gu Yanzhao raised his eyes and said, "I will go to the emperor's place and say, my father doesn't have to worry." ”
Mrs. Gu was about to say something, but Gu Yanzhao had already turned around and walked out of the house, Mrs. Gu couldn't help but be slightly angry, and said to Gu Yanting: "Your son has made you spoiled, he doesn't want you to let him go, in the long run, when will he be able to start a family?" ”
Gu Yanting looked at the back of his son's departure and his heart was also troubled, Shen Suyi was Shen Weizhong's only daughter, how could he not want Gu Yanzhao to marry Shen Suyi and enter the door, he could do his best for his confidant, but now, after waiting for so long, it was empty after all, don't say that Zhao'er can't stand it, even if he is also ashamed of Shen Weizhong!
The clouds collect the rain and add to the waves, the building is high, the water is cold and the melon is sweet, and the green trees are shady and the eaves are drawn. The yarn kitchen is rattan, and the jade Luo fan is light.
The sunlight shone into the room through the soft curtains, and the air seemed to float with golden dust, shining softly. In the gilded incense burner in the main hall was a very pleasant benzoin, and only a faint white smoke was seen, gently faint, wisps, and rising.
Only to hear a crisp voice sound: "I won." ”
Following the sound, I saw a woman wearing a lake blue satin embroidered jasmine jacket, a light pink long skirt with silver wire trim to touch the ancient card with a smile, she looked pretty, and wore a pair of silver-white skein bracelets on her bright wrists, which also had a small bell on it, and made a crisp sound, it was Fucha Zhishan.
Sitting on the top is a woman dressed in a satin robe with autumn fragrance and butterflies, her eyebrows are gentle, her head is wearing a jade jade inlaid with gold flat square with silk gold phoenix inserted at both ends, the phoenix tail hangs down with a long tassel rustling collar, and the placket is a cat's eye buckle, exuding a soft light, but it is the queen.
I only heard the queen slowly hook her lips and said with a smile: "You girl has played a good skull, forget it, this palace is also lacking, this hosta bento is lost to you by this palace." ”
Zhishan took it in her hand with joy on her face, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Niangniang." ”
Seeing that the queen got up and hurriedly helped her to sit on the kang table, took the fan in the hands of the palace maid and fanned her leisurely, the queen couldn't help but smile when she looked like this: "Do you have something to say?" ”
When Zhi Shan heard this, she smiled shyly, her ears slowly turned red, and she asked dryly: "Niangniang, the emperor said a few days ago that he wanted to marry Zhi Shan......
The queen couldn't help laughing when she saw her red-faced appearance, and said: "Don't worry, the emperor is in charge of this matter, but I don't know if you are still satisfied with Gu Yanting's son?" ”
A few days earlier, the emperor said that he wanted to marry Fucha Zhishan, because he didn't know who he would point to, Zhishan was worried for a while, and at this time he heard the queen say that it was Gu Yanzhao, so he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said with an embarrassed face: "The emperor's grace, Zhishan is naturally satisfied, and the emperor and the queen are very loved." ”
Since that night, Hongli has been cold to Su Yi, like an ordinary palace maid. Qiu Ruo and Yun Rou were stunned in their hearts, and asked Xiao Liuzi for some inquiries but didn't ask anything, but Su Yi's face was calm, every day she just helped make tea in the imperial tea room and did some chores, and occasionally went to the imperial front to deliver tea, but the emperor always didn't raise his head and didn't look at her. Her heart is also turning back and forth, from the beginning of the doubt, to the later calm.
On this day, she went to the Yangxin Palace to deliver tea, and saw a familiar figure kneeling on the ground from a distance, her heart was cold, and the hand holding the plate trembled slightly, and the hall was quiet, Hongli sat in front of the palace with a blue tribute satin tuanfu robe, and looked at her intentionally or unintentionally, Su Yi couldn't help but be surprised by his gaze, and quickened the pace of his feet but heard a faint voice sound: "Fucha Zhishan is the queen's cousin, and her appearance is also quite handsome, and her conduct is very good, isn't it worthy of you?" The voice was obviously indifferent, but to the ears of the human ear it was as cold as if it was sandwiched with ice particles.
Su Yi's heart jumped, and her eyes involuntarily looked at the person kneeling on the ground, he wanted to marry Fucha Zhishan?
Gu Yanzhao knelt on the ground, his head was not raised, but he smelled a familiar aroma, and his chest seemed to be pressed by a big stone, which made him breathless, and he saw that the emperor was already angry, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "The minister doesn't dare." ”
Su Yi was already sad, her heart was desolate, her hands trembled and put the blue and white porcelain cup on the case, and she hurriedly retreated, as soon as she got out of the room, tears fell, she was afraid, her eyes fell on her trembling hands, and her wrist was a green jade, shining in the sun but no temperature at all, coldly attached to her wrist, like a poisonous snake sizzling and spitting out the core, she couldn't help but sob, he was going to marry......
She knew that there would be such a day, she would lose him, and he would have other women to spend with him in this life, but she didn't think it would be so soon? Qin Se and Ming, don't be quiet, after all, it's not her and him, this long life, he will be like a flower, but she can only stay in this cage-like deep palace and die alone......
Hongli looked at Su Yi's thin back and was slightly stunned, was she afraid that she would shed tears when she went out in such a hurry or was she afraid of hearing the news she didn't want to hear, couldn't she forget him in her heart after all?
Gu Yanzhao saw that the emperor didn't say a word, and the more uneasy he became, he said in a deep voice: "Weichen's status is low, I am afraid that he has wronged Miss Fucha, besides, how can the eldest husband start a family before he has established a business?" Weichen is willing to go to the southwest to quell the rebellion in Miaojiang, appease the people, share the emperor's worries, and hope that the emperor will be fulfilled! ”
The emperor lowered his eyes and looked at him, and finally sighed in the middle of the voice: "Well, since you are willing to go to quell the chaos, then this marriage will be discussed in the future." ”
Gu Yanzhao breathed a sigh of relief, but the wings of his forehead and nose were beads of sweat, and his palms were full of cold sweat.
Two days later, Su Yi was taking a nap, and when she was in a daze, she only heard the sound of sighing in her ears, the sound continued to enter her ears, she moved her body, but the sound stopped abruptly, she turned over, and the voice came again, but it was Qiu Ruo and Yun Rou talking, she opened her eyes and listened carefully.
I only heard Qiu Ruo's voice sound first, "You make a small voice, don't be alarmed by Su Yi." ”
Yun Rou lowered her voice and said, "Well, but is Gu Gongzi really going to Miaojiang to quell the chaos?" ”
Su Yi was shocked, a handful of cold sweat was pinched in the palm of her hand, her heart was pounding, and she only listened to Yun Rou say again: "I heard Xiao Shunzi of the Qianqing Palace say that the rebellion in the southwest Miao Xinjiang has been going on for a long time, and it is said that the emperor has sent several adults to go, but there is no way. ”
Qiu Ruo said: "I don't want Gu Gongzi to go either, but this holy decree has come down, and it is said that it will leave soon." Miao Yi is still good at poisoning, I'm really worried about Gu Gongzi. After speaking, he looked at the figure of Su Yi sleeping on the couch through the window, and sighed slightly in his heart, if Su Yi knew about this, how sad it would be.
Su Yi clutched the brocade on the quilt in front of him tightly, tears flowed down his eyes, he was going to Miaojiang to quell the chaos, he was going to Miaojiang...... Cangtian, since ancient times, drunk and lying on the battlefield, Jun Mo smiled, a few people came back to fight in ancient times, he went, they were really separated by mountains and seas, and the beacon fire was in the sky, when would they be able to meet? What's more, there is no chance in this life and this life......
