Chapter 747: The Imperial Daughter

The sound of silk tearing, crisp and bright, prickly pulling, has a refreshing feeling. It's just that this is really the enjoyment of the naturally rich and noble, Ming Yi thought, even if she got the tens of thousands of taels, she couldn't do such a crazy thing.

Spring silkworms spin silk, reel silk into threads, and brocade is extremely labor-intensive, but in the eyes of the princess, it is just an ordinary thing, and it can't be torn up, and after it is torn, his father will not be stingy with rewards.

Ming Yi looked back at Shidong, who was holding four rolls of Shu brocade and looking east and west. smiled helplessly and took Shu Jin over: "You wait outside for a while." ”

Shidong responded obediently and followed the maidservant to the side hall to rest.

Mingyi knocked on the door: "Princess, I'm Mingyi." ”

The tearing sound inside stopped, and the princess's voice still sounded angry: "Come in." ”

Mingyi pushed the door in, this little temper really couldn't scare her, the more powerful the person, the more moody and angry, Princess Wanshou, is still a child.

Ming Yi went in, put Shu Jin aside, and said with a smile: "Who provoked our princess?" ”

Princess Wanshou pouted, looking aggrieved, and pulled her to sit down: "It's not from the Zheng family yet!" It's really unreasonable, and I learned to sue, and so does my father, helping outsiders, and punishing me for grounding! ”

Mingyi coaxed for a while before he understood the reason. Zheng Hao's younger brother was sick in bed, and he specially asked for leave to take care of him at home, but found that the princess was not there, and when he asked, he said that the princess went to her aunt's house to see the church. Zheng Hao was angry, and felt that the princess, as the eldest sister-in-law, should care for her brother, so she immediately entered the palace to face the saint, crying that the princess did not care about Aunt Weng and did not abide by women's morals.

The emperor was furious and felt that the royal face had been lost by the princess, so he immediately announced her into the palace and reprimanded her for a while. If it weren't for the princess's pregnancy, I'm afraid she would have to be corporal punishment. In the end, the princess was punished with a year's monthly salary, and she had to be grounded until she gave birth.

Mingyi was amused in his heart, it turned out to be just such a trivial matter. However, Princess Wanshou has been favored since she was a child, especially since Xuanzong ascended the throne, she is really willing to pick the stars in the sky to her, and she has never said anything cruel to her. This rebuke made the princess ashamed and angry, and hated Zheng Hao's family even more.

The emperor did this, and it was understandable. Princess Wanshou is the eldest daughter, and finally found a wishful husband for her, if it spreads, she bullies people and rides on her husband's family, then how many princesses under her can find a good home. The family was originally afraid of marrying a princess, and originally asked Zheng Hao to marry Wanshou, in order to set an example for the children of the family, marrying a princess is not so terrible, not only can you marry a beautiful girl, but also soar.

As a result, one by two is not worrying. This colt impeached Bai Minzhong all day long, in order to take revenge on Lalang. And this princess was arrogant, and before she was a year old, her son-in-law came to the door.

Ming Yi also figured out some Xuanzong's thoughts at this time. The royal road is the way of checks and balances. On the one hand, he used the family-dominated Southern Ya and the northern division of the eunuch group to balance each other, and on the other hand, he used the commoners to balance the power of the family. For the sake of the stable continuation of the Li Tang Dynasty, the eunuch must be destroyed, but once the Northern Division falls, the power of the Southern Ya will be excessive, and even the emperor will be hollowed out. Therefore, he was bound to gradually reduce the status of Shangshu Province and cultivate a new, more loyal to the royal family and more controllable commoner forces in the Southern Ya.

For example, Wu Qianping's reuse, in fact, was not closely related to the help of the Wei family and the Cui family, but just catered to the emperor's plan to suppress the family.

The reuse of commoners will definitely cause the family to revolt, so the emperor uses the family to divide the family while rising and descending. Recruiting horses is the most convenient and effective means. For example, recruiting Zheng Hao as a concubine broke the custom of intermarriage between the Zheng and Lu families for many years, and even planted a knot in the hearts of the two families. However, the concubine was not in real power, not only forced to stay in Chang'an, but also actually reduced the real power of the family in the imperial court. If Zheng Hao is out of office, not to mention that he is now also a fourth-rank official rank, he is very likely to be a strong contender for Wu Qianping, but once he becomes a concubine, he will only be the emperor's son-in-law, and it is difficult to make achievements.

Therefore, Zheng Hao and the Zheng family were depressed. Punishing the princess is just a consolation from Xuanzong to the Zheng family and other families, and lo and behold, I still respect and value you.

These, the princess who is still like a girl will not understand, and she doesn't need to understand, she just thinks that her father is the person who loves her the most, her biggest backer, she doesn't have to know, she is just a chess piece, a beloved chess piece.

Mingyi just listened, letting the princess vent her anger in her heart. She understood that the princess had been holding back all night, and most of this anger had disappeared, and it would be almost good to find someone to speak out and scold her.

Ming Yi comforted, only saying that the emperor did this to show the royal bearing, and he could not be criticized for bullying others, otherwise, who would dare to marry the princess of the Li family. After all, I still love the princess, this grounding is just because I am worried about the inconvenience of the princess, and then play around, for fear of hurting the child in the womb. And the monthly salary was originally only a part of the salary, and the money was missing, but the materials, vocational fields, and servants were still there.

Princess Wanshou listened, her face was much better, but she still muttered: "How he looks at me now is not pleasing to the eye, I really don't know how to live in the next few decades." ”

Mingyi put aside the princess's torn dress: "How is it going?" Gorgeous clothes, fine clothes and food, listening to music and watching plays, how to live happily. ”

The princess snorted and was amused, and then became sad again: "A year's money is not a decimal. I'm afraid it's hard to go out and have fun in the future. ”

Mingyi's mind moved, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he sent it to himself in vain, so he hugged the four volumes of Shu brocade first: "Don't say anything in advance, see what I brought you." ”

Only then did the princess notice that Mingyi brought a few packets, which seemed to be fabrics, wrapped in simple cotton cloth, but since they were sent by Mingyi, they must not be ordinary things, so she suddenly threw away the resentment just now: "What is it?" Unpack it and take a look. ”

Mingyi untied the gray-green cotton cloth outside the Shu brocade, and the goose yellow like the tender leek buds was presented in front of the two, bright and vulgar, and the brocade was full of luster, which had a sense of dignity and inexplicably a little delicate. The shading is a swastika pattern embroidered with gold thread, and the center is a lake blue moire, surrounded by a pink peach, and the peach pattern has a sense of blending, which is exquisite and lovely.

Princess Wanshou couldn't take her eyes off it, stroked it with both hands, and exclaimed: "The texture is so light and soft, I have never seen it." ”

Ming Yi smiled lightly and explained: "You look at the Pishu brocade, the shading is a swastika pattern, and the middle is the longevity peach given by the queen mother, which together is the word longevity." All under heaven, this one is the only one, divided into four volumes, and it is in front of the princess, and it will not be seen anywhere else. ”

The princess's eyebrows and eyes bloomed, and she couldn't put it down.
