Chapter 153: Marriage
In the Fengzao Palace, Princess Roufu was talking to the queen.
"Imperial sister-in-law, I want to ask you for a favor." Princess Roufu said with a gentle smile. She sat on the chair and watched several palace ladies skillfully unload the hairpin ring and comb the queen's hair.
The queen was a little tired, and she came back from the banquet to pack up and meet the lady again, but no sooner had she sat down than Roufu came straight to her bedchamber.
The emperor still has two younger sisters, only Roufu and his mother are out together, and they are more than ten years younger than the emperor, the emperor has always been extremely fond of this young sister, and the queen conforms to the holy will and has always been very good to Roufu.
Roufu would often go back to the palace for a few days to cultivate a relationship with the emperor. But she rarely asks the emperor, and the prince who married Ma Yan has always been reliable, Jane is in the emperor's heart, and she is more favored by the emperor than the soft wisdom who loves everything with great fanfare.
This time she rarely asked for grace, as long as it was not a particularly excessive matter, the queen could not refuse.
Roufu came here at this time, he must have asked for a show girl for Yan Xiuyu, I don't know which daughter Yan Wangfu has taken a fancy to.
Although the queen was still having a faint headache because of the prince's matter just now, her face was not obvious, and she said softly: "The imperial sister just said, if you want the stars in the sky, I will also ask Qin Tianjian to take them off for you." ”
"How can Roufu be so ignorant~ Roufu fell in love with a show girl, and felt that it was just a good match for my family's Xiuyu, and she was very clear about the girl's family background and temperament, so she was afraid that she would be begged to leave, and it would be difficult to find a suitable one." Roufu smiled slightly.
The queen was thinking in her mind, whose daughter was it, and she made Roufu feel good, she quipped: "Whose girl is Roufu fanciing?" ”
"It's the daughter of the Yan family, Yan Qingge." Roufu laughed.
The queen's body shook!
Why is it that Yan Qingge again.
At noon, the prince embarrassed her and wanted to marry the Yan family girl. Now the Yan Wangfu is also begging to marry her. A few days ago, Princess Zhong also came to tell her that she wanted to ask his second son Shui Zhi for the Yan family's daughter.
What's so good about this Yan family girl that the prince and the two major palaces in Beijing are vying to marry.
Roufu listened to the queen and didn't speak, and said with a smile: "Roufu doesn't hide from the emperor's sister-in-law, Xiu Yu's temper, you should know that she has been lawless since she was a child, and later worshiped the uncle of the Yan family's concubine as a teacher, and then slowly reined in." The two of them have seen each other since they were children, and I look like a good match......"
The words that Princess Zhong came to see her that day were so similar to Roufu. Princess Zhong's words, she still remembers: "In the winter of the previous year, my family Zhi'er went to Zhuangzi to soak in the hot springs, and the carriage overturned on the road, and Miss Yan passed by and let her carriage warm Zhi'er. Seeing that Zhi'er was getting older, I asked him, if there is a girl he likes, I can help him ask people, he only told me that this is a mother, Miss Yan is very good. This Miss Yan is friends with my Ying'er, and I like her personality very much. Although the family is lower, my family will never treat her badly. ”
The queen listened to Roufu's words, and only a sneer was left in her heart. This girl of the Yan family, who looks honest, turned out to be a fox spirit, and she lost the soul of the young man in Beijing. God has eyes, and he didn't let her marry the prince, otherwise there would still be Ning Ri in the palace.
However, the queen is the queen after all, and she soon has a calculation in her heart.
Compared with the proposal of Zhongwangfu and the proposal of Yanwangfu, it is obviously better than that of Yanwangfu.
If you marry the daughter of the Yan family to Shui Zhi, Shui Zhi is a cripple, loyal to the king's mansion and stupid and loyal, not tough enough. According to the prince's temperament, if he makes a mistake in the future, he has to snatch her into the palace again, but it will be troublesome.
If she is promised to the little prince Yan, with the blessing of Rou on top, and Yan Xiuyu's character is a bastard, he can cut off the prince's thoughts from the root.
Thinking of this, the queen's mood improved a little. She smiled and said to Roufu: "What a big deal! I will tell your imperial brother tonight that he will personally issue an order to marry the little prince Yan and this Yan family daughter. ”
Seeing that the matter was done, Roufu smiled and said, "It's still the imperial sister-in-law who loves me." ”
Out of the queen's bedroom, Roufu arrived at the hall where the wives stayed, and Princess Yun greeted with a smile: "How is the queen's mother?" ”
"The imperial sister-in-law is very good, and she will come out soon." Roufu intercepted Princess Yun's Hu and snatched Yan Qingge down in advance, but it was as if nothing had happened on his face, he lifted the corner of his skirt with a smile and sat next to Yun.
Not long after, the big palace maid beside the queen came out, called the famous woman in, and talked to the queen alone.
The people outside also talked quietly, talking about which girl they had taken a fancy to.
Because Princess Zhong's status is relatively high, it will soon be her turn.
The Yun family visited the queen and said with a smile: "Queen Mother, I told you a few days ago that I fell in love with the Yan family's daughter-in-law, and today is still a general idea. ”
The queen said apologetically to the Yun family: "I'm afraid this matter can't be done, so I asked Roufu to marry the daughter of the Yan family for the little prince of Yan." Do you have anyone else in mind? The mourning family can make decisions for you. ”
Yun was stunned, he didn't expect Roufu to come in just because of this. But what kind of person is Roufu, Yun knows very well, this kind of thing is really something she can do. With Roufu's intervention, it is impossible for Yan Qingge to marry into the Zhongwang Mansion.
She actually doesn't have to be Yan Qingge, she knows that she is not the kind of strong mother-in-law, so when choosing a daughter-in-law, the only requirement is that the girl can be pinched by her.
She thought for a while and said, "I remember that there is a girl surnamed Yun in this show girl, who is not the same as my family, and I can trust the tutor of the Yun family." ”
Before the Ning throne was passed to Yan Xiuyu, the Yun clan had already begun to decline. That girl surnamed Yun is her own family, and after she gets married, as long as she has a little brain, she should know what to do in the future.
The queen flipped through the roster of show girls on the table and said with a smile: "It's the girl named Yun Lan, right?" She was also chosen, I made a note of it. ”
It was not an easy task to meet those ladies, and it was only at night when the lights were held that the last guest was sent away.
The queen was so tired that her neck hurt, so she asked the palace maid to remove all her hair ornaments, scatter her hair, and drape it behind her head, so that she could relax for a while.
Sitting at the table, she copied the names of the girls she was asking to marry today, and looked at them one by one.
Just as the queen was carefully examining whether there was anything wrong, a figure in a dragon robe walked in.
Several palace maids immediately knelt down and greeted the emperor.
The queen also saluted the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you call someone to report it, the concubines are invisible, and the emperor is telling the emperor to see a joke." ”
The emperor smiled and said: "Zitong, you and I have been married for many years, and we still care about this. After speaking, he walked behind the queen, led her to sit down, gently held the long curl of hair behind her head, and said, "Zitong's hair is still so beautiful." ”
The empress is more than ten years younger than the emperor, and is actually the emperor's successor.
She smiled and said to the emperor: "The years are not forgiving, I am also old, I combed my hair a few days ago and found a few gray hairs. ”
The emperor looked at the list of show girls and the marriage list she placed on the table, and said, "Today's banquet is going well. ”
The queen's heart jumped, and she intuitively felt that when the emperor came at night, she should have heard the news of the prince's nonsense during the day. She smiled slightly, hiding her uneasiness, and said, "Everything is fine." Each family is very measured, and there is no problem with the show girl who asks to marry. There was just a finger marriage, and the concubine also asked the emperor to make a decree in person. ”
"Oh? Which family is the finger marriage? The emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at the queen.
"It's the marriage of the little prince Yan. Today, Roufu came to tell me in person, besides, whether the little prince Yan is on the throne of Ning Wangfu, or it is better for the emperor to make an order in person. ”
"Which girl did Roufu fall in love with?" The Emperor asked.
"Yan Qingge, the daughter of the Yan family. Your Majesty, you've seen it. The emperor said gently.
The emperor paused slightly, nodded and said, "I know." Tomorrow morning, I will issue an order to go to King Yan's Mansion and Yan's house to finalize this marriage. ”
mentioned the marriage of Yan Qingge and Yan Xiuyu, and the emperor and queen took a tacit look at it, knowing that there was no need to mention the matter of the prince in the daytime.
Early in the morning of the second day, Aunt Mo, who was in charge of Zhong Cui Palace, came to Yan Qingge's house. Tao Xi was waiting for Yan Qingge to have breakfast.
Seeing Aunt Mo, Yan Qingge stopped his chopsticks, gave Aunt Mo a light salute, and said, "Auntie is blessed." ”
Aunt Mo glanced at Yan Qingge a few times with pity and love eyes, and said, "The girl is overjoyed, the emperor has pointed out the marriage to the girl, the girl quickly packed up and went out of the palace to go home to receive the decree." ”
Yan Qingge was stunned for a moment and asked, "Auntie, do you know which family it refers to?" ”
Aunt Mo smiled: "The slave doesn't know, the girl will know after going home and listening to the order." ”
Yan Qingge estimated that it should be the Yanwang Mansion, but when it came to the end, she was a little timid, what if something happened in her life?
The peach behind her turned pale, and silently helped Yan Qingge pack up her things.
Not long after, Yan Qingge left the palace with the small package she brought when she entered the palace. A carriage was waiting at the gate of the palace, and she staggered back to Yan's house.
The palace had an early meal, and the Yan family was unruly, because Yan Songnian drank almost every night, and basically slept until noon during the day, and the Yan family's concierge also slacked off, and when Yan Qingge arrived at the door, the gate and corner gate of the Yan Mansion were all closed.
She knocked for a long time, and the porter stretched her waist to open the door, and when she saw Yan Qingge standing alone in front of the door, she was stunned.
Didn't you say that the eldest lady went to the palace draft? Why did he go home so alone, did he make some mistake and rushed back?
Since the last time Le Hou came, Yan Qingge finished reviewing those aunts, and the people in the house also knew that Yan Qingge was indeed Yan Songnian's own child, and the rumors about the emperor's daughter before were all made up by a few aunts.
The porter watched Yan Qingge's back walk into the courtyard and slowly walked in the direction of Qingxing Garden, puzzled.
Just when Yan Qingge's back had not completely disappeared, there was another knock at the door.
The porter said, "It's coming, it's coming!" ”
The Yan family is cold, and there may not be a guest who comes to the door for half a month, what's wrong today?
When he opened the door, he saw several eunuchs standing in the doorway, holding floating dust, wearing high hats, and holding in their hands a box made of fine bronze, which he had the privilege of seeing once when he went back to the gatehouse, and was specially used for the purpose of holding holy decrees.
The eunuch screamed: "The emperor's grace is vast, your Yan family is happy, hurry up and ask the lord's family to prepare and receive the order~"
The porter was urinating and said, "A few fathers-in-law, please come in." Then he gave the little guy who stayed in the porter a look, and told him to hurry up and call Yan Song to get up.
On the way to Han Youju with those eunuchs, the porter came back to his senses, and the emotional eldest lady was not driven out, but the emperor gave her grace. It seems that this eldest lady is about to soar into the sky!
The second watch is at ten o'clock! There was a problem with the network at home today. I'm sorry.
