Chapter 203: Regrouping
The prince returned from the Northern Expedition, and the flag waved in the wind. Kill the Tatar king and solve the danger in the north.
The horse stepped on the heavy mountain road, and the starry night dreamed back. The class teacher returned to the sun, and he was not drunk.
When the people in the city heard that the king had returned to the court, men, women, and children, they went to the streets to welcome the prince and his guards, and lined up from outside the city gate to Desheng Gate. That battle definitely surpassed King Kang and King Cheng who had married in the previous few big marriages.
"Look, the most handsome one in front is the prince!"
"Get out of the way, I'm going to offer flowers to the prince!"
"Why did you get out of the way? You're not the crown princess? It's as if who doesn't have a bouquet of flowers to offer! ”
"What kind of flower are you? It's obviously a green vegetable! ”
"Who is not a cauliflower? I'm biased! The prince likes my cauliflower! ”
"Really? Your prince likes cauliflower? My family is more than ......"
So, the jade-faced Lang Junyan Eleven, who was walking in front of the prince's carriage, was still ...... by the girl in the capital Cauliflower. The crown princess, who was sitting in the carriage, laughed and rolled in the prince's arms.
Upstairs in the palace, King Kang secretly sneered: The third brother loves to be in the limelight and takes women to the battlefield, you are going to war, who believes it?
King Kang has also made a comeback recently. He took advantage of the absence of the prince's brother in the capital, and before his wedding, he transferred Pei Zhiyu's second brother Pei Yu from the Qingshui Yamen Hanlin Academy to the left attendant of the military department. and Wan Xuefei's brother-in-law Wan Rongqiao was appointed as the left waiter of the Criminal Department.
What is Zuo Shiro? Shangshu candidates. Just like King Kang, he felt that as long as he was a prince, he would have the opportunity to be a candidate for the emperor. Therefore, when King Kang got married, Princess Pei and Concubine Wan were all overjoyed, and they received relatives and horses on both sides, which was so vast that half of the capital was red.
King Kang's father-in-law, Pei Shiyan, took advantage of his daughter's wedding to gather some ministers from the original Ji Party, and spared no effort to help his son-in-law canvass for votes and build connections.
Concubine Su in the palace was not idle, it turned out that Wang Man was there, and she had dealings with Cao Baoli, and now Cao Baoli controls the emperor and has great power, and she has to stick to it wholeheartedly.
"Lord Cao, this is King Kang's filial piety to you and a few chamberlains to Rao tea money." Concubine Su stuffed a stack of silver tickets into Cao Baoli's hand and said, "King Kang is more worry-free than the prince, especially for several adults, but he respects him very much. ”
"Last time, I blamed Wang Man for being too careless, and he could have an accident in his East Factory, otherwise he would ......" Concubine Su smiled meaningfully: "Inside and outside this imperial city, isn't it all you?" ”
The word "inside and outside the imperial city" really reached Cao Baoli's heart. They are internal courtiers, and when they control the emperor, they control the palace, but the control outside the palace is really beyond the reach of the whip, and they always press the gourd and scoop up. If this King Kang is obedient...... It's a good helper.
Cao Baoli pinched the stack of silver tickets and said with a smile: "Okay, His Royal Highness King Kang has a great future, and the old minister will naturally assist with all his heart, Concubine Su, please rest assured." With his words, Concubine Ji left satisfied. is also a concubine, Xie Ruijiao's mother, soft and soft-faced, can't be put on the table, who is my Concubine Su? My son, Xie Ruidi, is stronger than all the other princes!
King Kang is indeed different from his two elder brothers, neither like the crown prince, who is infatuated with one person, and other women do not want it; It's not like offering the king, he likes to enjoy the joy of the boudoir, and he is tired of it.
He felt that his attitude towards the backyard was more like that of a king. Respect the concubines and be impartial to each concubine, so that they can't see who they like in particular. In fact, he really didn't particularly like anyone in these wives and concubines.
During the wedding, he had been resting in Princess Pei's room, and he was not in a hurry to steal in other rooms. He supports the princess to have a concubine. Princess Pei was very satisfied with this, and was suddenly full of longing for her status and future.
Even when the concubine came to ask for peace, Princess Pei would feel that only these three or five people came to ask for peace, was there a little less people? Not enough to have the grandeur of a queen's mother. She euphemistically mentioned this idea to Concubine Su, and Concubine Su immediately supported it, she felt that this daughter-in-law was really knowledgeable.
"You can put the needs of the palace first, this is the demeanor that a concubine should have. How can she be like the crown princess Cheng Haitang, who is so jealous and can't tolerate people? Listening to the four concubines given by the queen, she used them all as palace maids, and the prince didn't even have to touch them. Concubine Su was disdainful.
Princess Pei hurriedly responded: "The mother concubine, from ancient times to the present, has not heard of only one queen in the emperor's harem, and there is no concubine." As a prince, you can't be too capricious. Perhaps, the crown prince is too spoiled by the crown princess......"
Concubine Su and Princess Pei agreed that King Kang was more like an emperor than the crown prince.
"Since you have this tolerant heart, the mother concubine will pay more attention to you, pick some good ones and carry them into the house, and you will train and restrain them." As soon as Concubine Su finished herself, she immediately remembered a name and asked, "How is Ye Jingjing, the concubine of the left servant of the household department?" ”
Pei Zhixin was worried that she didn't have a comparable strength to balance Wan Xuefei, and immediately nodded: "Miss Ye is also the handkerchief of Concubine Wan, she is here, and it just so happens that the two concubines can also be companions." ”
"That's for the best." Concubine Su said with a smile: "The Ji family has fallen, and the emperor has not dug deep into the Ji party, which has given us a big opportunity." I will go and mention to Lord Ye that Miss Ye will enter the mansion to be a side concubine. When the time is set, you can do it well. ”
So, before Concubine Wan waited for the round room, Concubine Ye came in again. King Kang was very satisfied. He felt that with a virtuous help like Princess Pei, he might be able to move faster.
Princess Pei's eldest brother Pei Duo, who has been a county magistrate in Shanxi for three years, has a good reputation for performance in this year's official assessment, and is ready to be promoted to the governor of Shanxi. This has added a lot to the Pei family.
Only then did King Kang realize that he had relied too much on Wang Man before, which was not only a tactical problem, but also a strategic mistake.
Ye Jingjing, who married into King Kang's mansion, happily held Wan Xuefei's hand, Wan Xuefei smiled and held the hand of this paper handkerchief, and couldn't wait to shake her hand off: I haven't had a round room with King Kang, why are you on an equal footing with me as soon as you enter the door?
Later, it wasn't until the wedding month that he gave enough face to the concubine, and King Kang entered the house of Concubine Wan and Concubine Ye in turn, and the house was rounded.
King Kang was not a person who coveted the backyard, and his face was impartial, the two side concubines had to let the mother clan suppress each other, and they were even more secretly energetic to see how they could get King Kang's favor and give birth to the prince as soon as possible.
With King Kang's attitude, Pei Zhixuan also showed the bearing of the lord of the six palaces, and even tolerated Mrs. Liu and Miss Zhou a lot.
For a while, King Kang's backyard was also happy, and even King Kang was attracted by this harmonious atmosphere, and the number of times he entered the backyard increased.
Home and everything is prosperous.
