The Zhao family is indeed very easy to handle, there are only two daughters in the family, the concubine has already married, and the concubine recruits a son-in-law to inherit the incense, and there is nothing wrong with it. can get a promising son-in-law for nothing, this is definitely a good deal to send to the door.

The Li family is different, from their standpoint, no matter how close the second son is, no matter how unfilial he is, it is also the blood of his own family. It's not that you can't afford it, so why bother to be a door-to-door son-in-law and be inferior?! What's more, this son has made it clear that there is a great possibility of being in a high position in the future, and his own family has not been able to reap the benefits, so why should he give it to others? !

Mingzhu thought about it for a long time and felt that he couldn't take his time, and he had to hit it with one hit. Otherwise, people will have a guard in their hearts, and there may be something wrong at any time. Not to mention anything else, Li Xiuyuan's family can use the orders of his parents to unilaterally give him a legal wife. When the time comes, let alone getting rich, it will be impossible to marry a wife in peace.

So, Mingzhu invited Li Xiuyuan to discuss with him in private. After making a plan, Mingzhu found an opportunity to enter the palace and say hello to Emperor Nanzhao.

Soon after, Emperor Nanzhao sent Li Xiuyuan on a business trip. During the time when Li Xiuyuan was out, Li Molian's children were entrusted by him to Zhao Bailian to take care of.

In about half a month, the relationship between Zhao Bailian and Li Molian has become like a mother and daughter.

On the day Li Xiuyuan returned from completing the task perfectly, it [coincidentally] was a big court meeting. Emperor Nanzhao was very satisfied with Li Xiuyuan's handling of this matter, and said that he would be rewarded heavily: "Li Aiqing is young and promising, and this matter has been handled very properly." Do you think you should be rewarded?! ”

"Your Majesty is wise! Discerning! Reward! When the reward is. "The ministers are also MMPs in their hearts, and the big bosses have said it so clearly, if they don't praise it, won't they lose their jobs that have been boiled for so many years?

At this time, Su Shangshu, who had already received Mingzhu's message, stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, it seems that the old minister is quite talented, and it just so happens that my Hubu Wang Shilang has returned to his hometown, why don't you ask Li Shilang to transfer over?!" "Although it is the same squire, the squire of the Hanlin Academy usually does some book repair at most, and there is no right to edit books, and there is no oil and water clerical work. Unless Emperor Nanzhao specifically named him to do something like this time, it is not impossible for him to squat at the level of a squire all his life. The head of the household is different, almost closely related to various departments, and the power in his hands is much greater than that of the Hanlin Academy. And often go to all parts of the country for business, even if the sleeves are clean, there are also a lot of serious channels to earn money and favors.

Prince He, who was in charge of singing the white face, immediately refuted: "Please think twice, Your Majesty, what is the key to the position of the household servant?!" Although Li Shilang is indeed young and promising, he has some less qualifications, and he usually doesn't see it, and he has any special talents in mathematics. The old minister thought that although Li Shilang should be rewarded, it was not yet the time to become an official and become a knight. The more excellent the young people, the more they should have more experience. ”

Sure enough, Emperor Nanzhao nodded with satisfaction, and said to Li Xiuyuan cordially: "I wonder if Li Aiqing has what he has asked for in his heart?!" ”

Under normal circumstances, at this time, he should [This is a matter of Chen's division, and he does not dare to ask for a reward, so he asks His Majesty to withdraw his order. However, after receiving the secret gift of Mingzhu, Li Xiuyuan said generously: "Thank you for your grace, Weichen does have a wish, please fulfill it." ”

Emperor Nan Zhao was surprised: "Oh?! Aiqing can say come and see?! (Qunchen: Your Majesty, your acting skills are too exaggerated!) ）

Li Xiuyuan said respectfully: "Back then, Weichen admired a woman, so he asked his father and mother to go and propose marriage. Originally, the two were a good match, and it was a match made in heaven to make a marriage contract. Later, because of some shameless reasons, Weichen had no choice but to do treachery. However, as fate of heaven dictated, under the circle, Weichen and the woman are still alone. Therefore, Weichen dared to ask His Majesty for marriage. ”

This is a confusing statement, but everyone in the capital has long known about the original incident. The reason why Li Xiuyuan said this is just to cover up the shame of his parents for the son of man.

Emperor Nan Zhao continued: "Oh?! I don't know which noble girl Aiqing is talking about?! ”

Li Xiuyuan knelt on his knees and said loudly: "The Zhao family has a female name named Bailian, who has a gentle temperament and is suitable for IKEA. Weichen sincerely asks to marry, and he will never lose the rest of his life! ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Shangshu in the front row shouted angrily: "Bah! How can you have the face to say such a thing today?! If it weren't for you, the Li family betrayed its word in order to cling to the powerful. The little girl will not be caught up in rumors now! You're good! is marrying a wife and taking a concubine, but he also spoils the concubine and kills his wife to let the concubine be born first! It's over, your wife and concubine were killed by you, but you want to go back and come back to my concubine again, and go to your culprit concubine as a stepmother?! There is no such reason in the world!! Your Majesty, please be aware of it!! ”

Emperor Nan Zhao looked embarrassed: "This ...... Zhao Aiqing is reasonable, it is indeed the Li family who is disappointed. This Zhao family girl is virtuous and virtuous, but she has been mired in rumors for many years. It's really not good for me to marry her to you like this, and the marriage between the two surnames is not a feud......"

Li Xiuyuan heard this and immediately said, "Your Majesty is wise! Instead, he knelt facing Zhao Shangshu: "A thousand mistakes, it's all my Li family's fault!" The little nephew knows that his uncle loves his daughter very much, and he does not dare to hand over the pearl in his palm to me, a person who once betrayed his trust. Today, I swear to you in front of Your Majesty and the civil and military officials, if I have anything to do with the eldest lady of the Zhao family in this life and this life. It will be thundered five times in the sky, and it will not be a good death!! If the uncle still has doubts, the son-in-law is willing to join the Zhao family, and your second elder will witness it personally! ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked. Even if some people have already been mentioned, they are surprised to really witness it on the spot at this time. A young high-ranking official, the son-in-law of a big clan actually begged for money in front of the palace?! This is definitely the biggest melon of the year, and there is no semicolon.

"The rebel is so daring!" The one who is listed is Li Xiuyuan's clan uncle, Master Li, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and he has been silent just now because what kind of wife his nephew wants to marry really has nothing to do with him. But at this moment, seeing that the most promising junior of the Li family wants to join another family, this is a major matter of the clan. If he doesn't say anything to stop it, I'm afraid it won't be easy to explain to the clan if he goes out of this door today. "As a son of the Li family, you have enjoyed the fine clothes and food provided by the Li family since you were a child, and everything you have is given to you by the Li family. Now that he has grown up and become an official, for the sake of a woman, he has to abandon his parents and inherit the incense for other families. Such an unfilial and unrighteous person, please punish Your Majesty! ”

Li Xiuyuan said proudly: "Uncle Clan's words are wrong, I quit the Zhao family at the beginning, you can say that I am treacherous." But in the name of unfilial piety, I would never dare to take responsibility! At the beginning, I had a marriage contract with Miss Zhao, if it wasn't for my parents forcibly withdrawing from the marriage, how could I have done something treacherous?! It was because I was bent on filial piety that I married someone I didn't want to marry, which caused many tragedies later. This caused his father to be angry and Long Yan was demoted from Beijing. As for the Li clan?! Why did you go earlier?! If I really have the heart, the clan elder should have come forward to speak for me when I got out of the marriage.

Now I finally know that the filial piety I used to be can't be called filial piety at all, at most it's foolishness. If only I had been able to disobey my parents and keep my promises. Later, there would not have been two innocent women who died tragically because of me, and my father and mother would not have been separated. Now I want to make up for the mistakes I made many years ago and atone for my parents, this is the great filial piety!! What's wrong with Wechen?! ”

In the last sentence, Li Xiuyuan said righteously in the face of Emperor Nanzhao. Master Li was speechless for a while, but he still made his last effort: "Your father and mother are all wrong, and you can't really abandon your parents and go to another family." If this can also be called atonement for the sins of parents, wouldn't it be laughing at others?! ”

Li Xiuyuan said eloquently: "Uncle Clan is too worried, even if a woman marries, he doesn't say a reason to cut off relations with his mother's family." What's more, the little nephew is just in the Zhao family on the same street?! And as you may not know, I have long since split up, and my parents have not raised a written objection to this. Besides, the distance I am now from the Li Mansion is farther than the distance between the Zhao family and the Li Mansion. Joining the Zhao family not only does not affect my filial piety, but allows me to honor my parents closer than I am now. ”

Master Li: "What about the Li family's incense inheritance?!" If you get rich, the future child will be surnamed Zhao. Isn't this a great disfilial piety to the ancestors?! ”

Li Xiuyuan replied: "Don't worry about this, I am not the eldest son, there is a brother above, and the elder brother already has a son." There is no problem with the Li family's incense at all. As for myself, I don't care about that. ”

Master Li: "This marriage is the words of the matchmaker of the parents. Anyway, you always have to discuss with your parents, right?! ”

Li Xiuyuan shook his head: "Even if it is a woman, she still marries her father and remarries herself." The little nephew's first wife was forcibly arranged by her father, is there still a confused arrangement for her father and mother to remarry?! Please forgive the little nephew for not being able to obey his fate. ”

Master Li: "......"

Seeing that they were almost arguing, Emperor Nanzhao was wondering, is it okay to wrap it up?!

At this time, Master Zhao laughed and said, "Hahaha! Xiu Yuan's virtuous nephew said it well, people say that the prodigal son does not change his money, and the old man thought that you really lacked some responsibility in previous years, but he didn't think about it, you can also insist like this! It turns out that you are also a person of the most affectionate and sexual!! Good, good!! You, the son-in-law, the old man should go. Saying that, Lord Zhao gave a big gift to Emperor Nanzhao: "The old minister asks His Majesty to give marriage to the little girl." ”

Emperor Nanzhao immediately ended according to the plot: "Okay! I will be invited by the virtuous son-in-law. Hu Daban! Intended! ”

After the dispersal of the dynasty, this holy decree, the only one in the past and present, was spread most quickly by the civil and military officials who watched a big show......

At this time, Zhao Bailian, who still didn't know anything about this matter, was in the small class classroom, and suddenly Mingzhu walked in with the small head teacher: "Xiaolian, you come out for a while." There is something to do, you come with me, let Mr. Hua take it first in this class. ”

Mr. Hua walked to the classroom and said, "Children, Mr. Xiaolian has some things at home, is it okay for Mr. Hua Hua to accompany you in this class?" ……”

Zhao Bailian was inexplicably pulled to the office by Mingzhu, only to see a waiter standing in the office at this time. Seeing the two of them coming in, the chamberlain stepped forward with a smile: "Her Royal Highness Princess Lao, presumably this is Miss Zhao, right?!" ”

After determining the main master, the inner servant was in a correct color, and said solemnly: "Zhao's White Lotus takes the order!" ——”

Zhao Bailian hurriedly knelt under Mingzhu's guidance.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor's edict said: I hereby heard that Zhao Huimin, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, has a female white lotus, skilled and generous, gentle and generous, and has outstanding appearance. However, he was burdened by Li Xiu, the waiter of the Hanlin Academy, who quit his marriage for no reason, and his reputation was innocently damaged. Now Li Xiuyuan wrote to ask for sin, remembering that it was an unintentional mistake, sincerely repenting, and both of them were marriageable. and the Zhao woman can be called a good match made in heaven. In order to become the beauty of a gentleman, he was specially recruited as the daughter of the Zhao family as a son-in-law. All etiquette is handled by the Ministry of Etiquette, and the marriage is completed on a good day. The proclamation is at home and abroad, and the salty envoy hears it. Chin this. ”

Seeing that Zhao Bailian was still stunned, the chamberlain said with a smile: "Congratulations to Miss Zhao, it's time to take the order." ”

Zhao Bailian woke up suddenly, and Mu Mu said: "The people's daughter accepts the order, thank you Lord Longen." ”

Mingzhu saw that she was wandering out of the world, so she smiled and asked Rose to help her give her a silver reward, and sent the chamberlain back to the palace to restore her life.

"Hey! Hey! Stupid?! Mingzhu's palm shook in front of Zhao Bailian's eyes, and finally attracted her attention: "What?!" Happy silly?! ”

"No, what's going on at this point?!" Zhao Bailian really felt like she was in a dream.

"What else could be going on?! Didn't I tell you that day?! In order to be with you, Li Xiuyuan asked for marriage. "Mingzhu is a little proud of this, do you see?! This is all a song of mine.

"No, I mean that's a big deal?! Your Majesty even agreed?! Dynasties and dynasties have never heard ......" Zhao Bailian couldn't believe it.

Mingzhu waved his big hand proudly: "What's this?!" Since it's your sister's wish, and you are happy with each other, you don't have to thank me for this little thing! ”

Hearing this, Zhao Bailian's heart warmed, and for a while, it seemed that the knot in her heart had finally been untied for many years. The gloom between the eyebrows dissipated most of the time. I saw that she was holding the holy decree tightly in her hand, as if she was grasping the happiness of her whole life. I can't be in a mood for a while.

Slowly, like a breeze blowing across the lake, a smile rippled from Zhao Bailian's face: "Mingzhu, thank you." ”

This smile made Mingzhu in a trance, and she seemed to see the girl who was shy and happy to confide in her about her love many years ago. Just this smile made Mingzhu feel that it was in vain to bother planning for her these days. The girl who was the fool who held her heart in front of her sweetheart finally got what she wanted.

"Hey! - I have always looked down on Li Xiuyuan before, but if he gives you a favor, then there is really no more perfect husband than him. Xiaolian, are you ready to meet the envy, jealousy and hatred of the nobles in the capital?! ”
