Chapter 342: Dealing with it in front of the Son of Heaven
In the afternoon, Lin Yanniang's mother and son cleaned up and followed Yun Jingning out.
Yue Liu and Li Nian were selected to accompany him, which was also convenient for taking care of the children and leaving Zhang Xu's family to take care of the house.
When I went out, I learned from Mrs. Lao Hou that the county lord of Huichun didn't even eat lunch, and ran back to his parents' house after a quarrel with Yunjun Hou.
The eldest princess's mansion, Yun Jingning has not brought his wife and children to go there, he is really too busy, he always has to go to the palace to talk about it, and then he heard that his mother had passed, so he hesitated a little.
If his mother sues first, won't he wait to be bullied?
Mrs. Lao Hou saw that his expression was not very good, and she also knew what the problem was, so she said: "When you bring a salute tomorrow, you still have to meet those who should be visited, and you can't let people say that our Yun family children are rude." ”
Yun Jingning couldn't refute it, so he responded.
Several horse-drawn carriages marched towards the palace surrounded by the palace guards, and the heavenly street in the north of the city was still spacious and straight.
Perhaps it is because the people who live here are either rich or expensive, there are not so many idlers walking on the streets, and there are no traders coming, so the streets are particularly spacious and quiet.
The most traveled on the road were carriages, servants, and city guards, and when they approached the palace, they could also see the forbidden army......
Lin Yanniang watched it very strangely all the way, Yun Jingning originally endured the injury, but at this time her mood was inexplicably better.
Fortunately, Lin Yanniang looked at it and hugged the child tightly.
There were only the two of them in the carriage, and Yun Jingning was not suitable to hold the child now, and Lin Yanniang held it herself throughout the whole process.
When I arrived at the gate of the palace, I was greeted by layers, and soon the big eunuch who came to the imperial study was Gonggong Zhang, who went to the Junhou Mansion to announce the decree today, and stepped forward with a smile and saluted.
Yun Jingning and Lin Yanniang hurriedly saluted him, and as juniors, they didn't dare to hold it up at all.
Seeing that they were modest, Gonggong Zhang smiled and said some kind words, and said that the emperor asked them to go to the middle palace, and it happened that the emperor was also going over there, so they met together.
So Gonggong Zhang personally led them straight to the Middle Palace.
Although Lin Yanniang turned her head back, her expression was calm, her eyes only slightly looked at the surrounding environment, and she did not show cramped or rude behavior, so that she seemed to behave appropriately and calmly.
Father-in-law Zhang looked at it secretly, and secretly praised in his heart, a woman in the mountains can also show a ladylike demeanor, even if she is pretending, even if she has been trained a long time ago, it is already very good.
He also looked at people when he announced the decree before, and when he returned to the palace, he naturally reported what he saw to the emperor.
Seeing that Father-in-law Zhang showed a satisfied expression, Yun Jingning hooked his lips slightly, thinking that he didn't want to see whose daughter-in-law it was, the person he picked was naturally the best.
Yun Junhou and Mrs. Lao Hou naturally saw Grandpa Zhang's expression, and they were also a lot more relieved.
This granddaughter-in-law is really good, and her excellence is that she is not shocked by honor and disgrace, has a moderate advance and retreat, and behaves appropriately, and these are enough.
When they came to the Middle Palace, they were directly released without notification, obviously the emperor had arrived, and the queen knew that they were coming.
When she came to the main hall, Lin Yanniang's eyes flashed slightly, and she secretly said that her mother-in-law would come to the palace first, what does this mean?
The sound of the piano in the main hall is curling, a woman in pink is stroking the piano on one side, and everyone else is sitting nearby, and the queen and the emperor are on the top.
And the old woman sitting next to the county lord of Huichun, without thinking too much, must be the sister of the emperor today, the most favored and noble eldest princess.
There is an emperor who is an uncle, and it is no wonder that the county lord of Huichun is so willful and reckless, and even beats his own son.
Lin Yanniang took all the situation in the hall into her eyes at the moment of progress, lowered her eyes and followed Yun Jingning's side.
Gonggong Zhang reported in front of him, then retreated to the side of the emperor's head and stood still, smiling at the few people who walked in.
The old marquis took the child from Lin Yanniang's hands, and the old marquis stepped forward to salute, even if he met the emperor and the eldest princess and Guo Yuma.
On the other side, there were also Prime Minister Shen and his wife, who stood up with a smile and saluted the old marquis and his wife, and the woman standing behind them also came to pay their respects.
When they were greeting each other, Yun Jingning had already led Lin Yanniang to the throne and knelt down.
Yun Jingning said loudly: "Weichen and his wife Lin Yanniang, thank the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live, long live Niangniang, thousand years old, thousand years old!" ”
On the way here, Lin Yanniang was also told these words, and at this time followed Yun Jingning to salute and thank her.
The originally leisurely scene was suddenly seen by them as soon as they knelt down so formally.
The sound of the piano also stopped abruptly, and a young woman walked over quickly, standing beside the county lord of Huichun, and looked at Yun Jingning with a smile.
It's just that at this time, Yun Jingning has no time to take care of him.
The emperor shouted "flat body" with a smile on the head, and when they got up, they suddenly looked at him slightly, why is this kid Tianyao a little strange?
Yun Jingning had actually tried his best to remain silent, but the carriage had been bumped along the way and had walked for a long time into the palace.
In addition to the wound being a little pulling, there is also a slight sweat, which is usually nothing, and the wound is especially itchy and uncomfortable at this time.
"Lin, come forward and let me see what kind of girl can save a general from the mountains and forests."
The emperor's eyes began to look again, his expression was not surprised, and he seemed to be secretly looking at his little daughter-in-law, and he couldn't help laughing.
Lin Yanniang stepped forward slowly, behaved in a dignified manner, not frightened, and walked to the bottom of the white jade steps and stood still.
Squatted down again, got up and looked at the first two with a bright smile, facing the most noble two people in the world, she still spoke in a steady voice.
"Your Majesty, when the courtiers rescued the general in Shuangxiling, Baihua Mountain in May last year, they didn't know his identity, but on the afternoon of the third day of the winter month, the Yun family brother arrived at home, and the general spit out the truth that he was the general of the Northern Expedition."
"Oh? So, General Yun is cheating his relatives? ”
The emperor actually knew the truth for a long time, but at this time, he deliberately looked at the calm woman next with surprised eyes.
In front of the Son of Heaven, he was so stable in dealing with it, and he really had the courage.
"Back to the emperor, the general's explanation that day was that repaying the favor came second, because he liked it and because he wanted to marry his wife, he would hide it."
"Because the general knows the difference between the family and the family, if he openly asks to marry, the courtiers will not marry him, and the courtiers' families will not climb high."
"But you're still married!"
The emperor pointed out another factual problem, and he didn't know whether he was questioning or sighing, and there was a little disagreement between his words.
Everyone else in the palace stared at Lin Yanniang, and their expressions all agreed with the emperor's words, but no one dared to speak without permission.
Yun Jingning stood two steps behind Lin Yanniang, and she didn't say anything, just looked at her affectionately, not impatient at all, and had no intention of stepping forward to protect her.
It was to make the old marquis and the old marquis anxious.
"Back to the emperor, although the courtiers are angry with the general for concealing their identity, they have already made a vow to love the general and his wife, and they will give birth to a child, so as long as the general is not a traitor, he will go to heaven and earth, and he should follow!"
Lin Yanniang's voice was calm and clear, but with sonorous strength, which made people surprised by this oath.
A lifetime of a couple!
At this time, Yun Jingning stepped forward and bowed, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the Lin family has the grace to save his life in the court, and he also has the merit of opening mountains and clearing roads in the imperial court. ”
"The main general of Chishui Pass is Sha Chongtian, and for many years the actual occupation of my Dongli land has been occupied by the forest line of Tiger Mountain, and the main vein of Baihua Mountain is divided into Wild Boar Ridge and Shuangxi Ridge, considering that it haunts Wild Boar Ridge, it actually occupies most of Baihua Mountain."
"As an archer among the hunters, the Lin family shot a tiger on the periphery of the Boar Ridge, and then shot the second tiger with the assistance of the minister, which was very convenient for the minister to send troops through the forest to ensure the safety of the soldiers."
"The minister is young and easy to practice in the army, and his personality is bold and uninhibited, the most annoying and willful young lady, the most disgusted and willful young lady, the most disgusting young lady who is about to die and cry alive, and the most disgusting young lady who is calculating and pretending to be pitiful to others......"
"Alas, there are so many women that the minister doesn't like, but the minister fell in love with the Lin family at first sight, and felt that she was the one who the minister had been waiting for for half his life."
"The minister was recuperating in the Lin family, and I saw with my own eyes that she was the eldest daughter and eldest sister who was hardworking, brave, filial, hardworking, strong, virtuous, and clear-minded, innocent and kind, and able to be literate and martial, which is really a rare little girl."
"After the minister resolved the crisis of Wild Boar Ridge, he thought that once the war started, he didn't know when he would triumph, and the minister was at this age, and the Lin family was criticized for saving the minister's life, so he did the truth of concealing his identity and marrying her."
"But the minister has reported to the elders of the family, and he was hired to marry after the consent of the family, so he also asked the emperor to look at the minister's age, and for the sake of the Lin family's meritorious feelings, the ministers and their wives were deeply in love."
After Lin Yanniang calmly explained the reason, Yun Jingning also added Lin Yanniang's merits and the facts at the time, and almost didn't say that if it weren't for Lin Yanniang, he would have been buried in the mountains and forests a long time ago.
Naturally, this has been reported a long time ago, and everyone knows about it, so it is not interesting to say it again and again, and it may also make the emperor unhappy and have the opposite effect.
The emperor naturally helped him, so he deliberately said the previous words, and the purpose was to let them spread these things out again, so as to dispel the anger of those who were uneasy.
The queen knew that the emperor was here to be a peacemaker, so she echoed Yun Jingning's words and interceded for him.
"Your Majesty, Tianyao is right, what we are most worried about over the years is that he will never be able to marry a daughter-in-law, and now he not only has no danger but also made military achievements, and brought his wife and children back, which is also a great achievement."
"Okay, now it's a great achievement to marry a wife and have children, Tianyao, you kid has a big face, even the queen has helped you speak, if I don't give in anymore, I will look stingy."
So the emperor smiled and went down the steps, and these words were undoubtedly Chrysostom.
made the county lord of Huichun, who had complained for a long time before, suddenly have a bitter word, and his face was extremely ugly.
The eldest princess turned her head and glanced at her, but she didn't speak.
"You've been here for a long time, and you haven't come to greet your grandmother." The emperor was satisfied with the current situation, so he signaled to Yun Jingning.
Yun Jingning and Lin Yanniang hurriedly saluted again, then walked to the few people sitting on the side, and knelt down again.
After a few movements, Yun Jingning's forehead sweated slightly.
"Tianyao and his wife Lin knelt down to ask his grandmother and grandfather Jin An."
"Get up, the general who has made meritorious contributions, my grandmother is proud of you, I didn't expect to meet you when I entered the palace today, but I didn't have any preparations, this bracelet gave your daughter-in-law a meeting gift, don't dislike it."
The eldest princess has a lot of bearing, and she doesn't like this granddaughter-in-law of the poor family in her heart, at least at this time, she has a decent smile on her face, and she can't see any flaws.
"Thank you, grandmother!" Lin Yanniang hurriedly knelt down a few steps, lowered her head and held the jade bracelet with both hands, her humble and docile posture was clear at a glance.
The eldest princess was surprised, and then turned her head and glanced at her daughter in confusion.
The county lord of Huichun ran into the eldest princess's mansion and cried to his mother for a long time, saying that it was naturally Lin Yanniang's various badnesses, and Yun Jingning's failure to break with her mother for the sake of a mountain woman.
But at this time, this woman is not too bad.
The most important thing is that the emperor and queen have recognized the name of this woman, and they have been rewarded for their merits, and they have been given an edict, but they are not ordinary mountain women.
She is a mountain woman with a destiny.
"Good boy, get up quickly." At this time, Guo Yuma smiled and helped him.
Yun Jingning got up and gently stroked the hem of his robe, so that he couldn't see anything unusual.
Lin Yanniang, who was standing beside him, keenly smelled a faint smell of blood, and couldn't help but glance at him worriedly.
Over there, the emperor had ordered Gonggong Zhang to hug Yun Anhao over, and also took it in his hand and looked at the queen, looking at the little face that looked like Jiyun Jingning, the emperor and queen were very happy.
Yun Jingning and Lin Yanniang saluted the county lord of Huichun again, so they didn't say much.
At this time, the woman standing beside the county lord of Huichun smiled and opened her mouth.
"Brother Tianyao, you haven't been back to Beijing for many years, and you don't go to see people when you come back, people are going to be angry." What do you say......
Lin Yanniang glanced at it curiously, and then Yun Jingning said suspiciously: "You are?" ”
"......" Lin Yanniang pursed her lips suddenly, almost laughing, she glanced at the evil-eyed man, and did not speak.
"What!" The woman was taken aback, and suddenly turned red, and looked at Yun Jingning in disbelief, her eyes were slightly reddened and there were tears, "Brother Tianyao, you don't even recognize me......
"Bastard! Bully Ruier as soon as you meet, what do you have in mind! ”
The county lord of Huichun was furious, his voice was a little higher, he glared at his son angrily, and glanced at the woman beside him resentfully, Lin Yanniang.
"Ruil?" Yun Jingning frowned slightly, as if thinking for a while, and then suddenly said, "It turned out to be the granddaughter of Heyang Hou, Miss Guo Ruiyu, rude and rude!" ”
Yun Jingning smiled, holding her fists to ask for a crime, but looked at her suspiciously: "You're twenty, right?" How do you still dress up as an unmarried woman? ”
Guo Ruiyu greeted her favorite lover with tenderness, but she didn't expect to be slandered when she opened her mouth, and stabbed her heart again and again......
She couldn't help hiding her face and crying, and said aggrievedly: "It's only nineteen, and I've been waiting for you to be an unmarried woman!" ”
"Wait for me?" Yun Jingning looked confused again, his eyes were puzzled, but he was unmoved.
"Ben Jiang has no selfish relationship with you, no marriage contract, and no promises, you say such a bad reputation, and mislead Ben General's wife to suspicion, but you are not right!"
"If you want to come to the Hou Mansion of Heyang, it shouldn't be so inferior, and please Miss Guo be cautious, don't ruin the family's reputation!" Yun Jingning trained Guo Ruiyu in a serious and decent manner.
"Aunt......" Guo Ruiyu couldn't resist Yun Jingning's shameless reprimand, and was already so ashamed that he couldn't burrow into the ground, so he cried and fell into the arms of the county lord of Huichun at this time.
Guo Ruiyu is the granddaughter of Guo Yuma's brothers, and she wants to call the eldest princess's uncle and grandmother, her father and the county lord of Huichun are cousins, and this aunt is really close.
The county lord of Huichun hugged Guo Ruiyu and patted him comfortingly, then turned his head and glared at Yun Jingning: "You rebel!" Don't apologize to Ruil yet! ”
Yun Jingning didn't speak.
The county lord of Huichun glared at Lin Yanniang again: "It's all caused by you vulgar woman!" ”
Lin Yanniang did not respond to her mother-in-law's anger, but looked at the crying woman, hooked her lips mockingly, and said with a light smile: "Miss Guo's strategy, the little woman sighs to herself!" ”
"Oh? Madame, have you noticed that too? Yun Jingning immediately looked at her in surprise and asked deliberately.
The people who were chatting in the main hall were attracted by the crying here, and at this time, they all looked over, the emperor did not speak, and the others also pretended not to know.
Sit back and watch the juniors respond.
"Well, Miss Guo first provoked the relationship between you and me with words that aroused suspicion, and was exposed by your husband in public, and then turned around and instigated her mother to be angry with you, and the fire at the city gate affected me, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, a good plan!"
Lin Yanniang analyzed, and immediately shocked everyone, looking at her incredulously.
The willfulness of a pampered noblewoman, and so many connotations?
No one thought much about it just now, but at this time, they couldn't help but think deeply, as if they ...... Reasonable?
"Brother Tianyao, you are too much!" Guo Ruiyu didn't expect that his cry would be a loss of face, and he glared at him with some annoyance.
"How can we be relatives, but you are used to this outsider to bully me! Don't say I'm instigating, I'll ask you, where did you put your aunt! ”
"Ben put his mother, where did you take the turn? That's it...... No wonder you haven't married at nineteen! ”
Yun Jingning's face also sank, and he reprimanded unceremoniously.
For the woman who covets herself and has a strong backer, she doesn't plan to back down from the beginning, of course, how to do it, so that those people still have some face and don't dare to think about anything else.
"Okay, a few children's families, why are they so begging to fight!" After Guo Yuma made a look, the eldest princess smiled and spoke.
As an elder, she opened her mouth to talk about the tense things just now, and she said that she was a child.
When she opened her mouth, Lord Huichun and Guo Ruiyu stopped talking, and they only looked at Lin Yanniang angrily, thinking that she was too much of an eyesore.
"Tianyao!" At this time, the old lady who was sitting on the other side shouted with a cold face, "You still have injuries on your body, can you still bear it for half a day?" ”
"Wounded?" The first to speak was the emperor.
The emperor was still holding Yun Anhao, who was teasing, and felt as if he had seen Xiao Tianyao more than 20 years ago, and later, Tianyao, who had just started learning martial arts, said that he wanted to be a general and help his uncle and grandfather guard the country.
When he grew up, Tianyao really solved the hidden danger in the north for him, and made him happy, so he naturally loved this nephew.
"Tianyao suffered more than 100 boards today, and the wounds and bruises on his back are also due to his martial arts background, otherwise I am afraid that he will be paralyzed in bed and unable to get up."
Mrs. Hou took the handkerchief and pressed it to the corner of her eyes, and said with a distressed expression.
Although he didn't say why he was beaten or who he was beaten, he was blatantly suing the emperor.
Originally, she didn't want to say much about her face, but seeing that the county lord of Huichun had no remorse, and she didn't care about her son's injury at all, she was still messing around there, and she added such a person as Guo Ruiyu, which made her very unhappy.
Therefore, she told the story of her grandson's being beaten to the board.
All the people in the temple were astonished.
The emperor also sank his face, glared at Yun Jingning, and scolded angrily: "What's the matter? Who else would dare to defeat my generals? Your father isn't so ignorant, is he? ”
These words made the county lord of Huichun pale with fright, and he didn't dare to look at the emperor.
