Chapter 154: Marriage by Divine Decree

Although it was August, Shengjing never cooled down, there was still a little ice in Huarong Palace, Qi Guifei lowered her head, and the air was a little deep, which made her a little breathless.

After a long time, Emperor Jin Yuan threw the poetry collection on the low table and asked quietly: "Do you like it or did your stepchild mention it to you?" ”

Qi Guifei hid the color under her eyes and said softly: "My stepsister wants to share his worries for His Majesty, if he is interested in this matter, the concubine will not be so worried now." It was the concubine who had selfish intentions and wanted to give her niece to her stepchild. ”

She paused for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty thinks that the concubine is not well chosen?" Or His Majesty himself has a suitable candidate in mind. ”

Emperor Jin Yuan stared at Qi Guifei's eyes carefully, his eyes were heavy, and he said with a smile: "You are his mother, your choice is naturally good." ”

He straightened the hem of his clothes and got up slowly, and Qi Guifei also stood up and asked, "Your Majesty, where are you going?" ”

Emperor Jin Yuan took two steps, turned sideways, swept the back of his hand over Qi Guifei's face, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked: "My concubine is also old......"

Qi Guifei couldn't hold back the smile on her face, she grabbed Emperor Jin Yuan's hand and said: "It's been almost twenty-four years since the concubine entered the palace for sixteen, and the years are urging people to grow old, how can the concubine violate the way of heaven, but Your Majesty is still in the prime of spring and autumn, and the concubine is afraid that Your Majesty will one day dislike me and grow old." ”

Emperor Jin Yuan tugged at the corners of his mouth, and smiled inexplicably: "As long as the concubine is still the same as before, what does it matter if her face is old." Ah Mao never took these external objects to heart. ”

After Qi Guifei's hanging hand trembled slightly, she slowly clenched it again, her eyelashes trembling slightly, as if to hide the jealousy and anger in her heart.

Emperor Jin Yuan withdrew his hand and looked at the sky from the house: "I haven't thought of Ah Hao for a long time, you and Ah Hao were sisters at the beginning, but even you never talked about her. ”

Qi Guifei smiled reluctantly: "Your Majesty was angry at the beginning, although she grounded her sister, she did not depose the title, it can be seen that she felt sorry for her sister and wanted to protect her, and then her sister passed away, and the concubine didn't mention it, because she didn't want Your Majesty to be sad anymore, and Sister Ah Hao must have thought so." ”

"Really?" Emperor Jin Yuan half-squinted his eyes and muttered, "If you are the girl of the palace who is happy to be the step-son's side concubine, then you can make the decision." ”

After saying that, she raised her feet and left Huarong Palace, but it was Qi Guifei's body that was soft and propped up on the round table, and her palms were full of sticky cold sweat, and she said to herself...... Xie Hao! ”

Emperor Jin Yuan walked out of Huarong Palace, followed by Xie Yu in a dark robe, his face was pale, his eyes had not seen a trace of waves for many years, and the corners of his mouth hooked a smile without a trace of temperature.

The two walked one after the other, and Emperor Jin Yuan turned the dragon wrench on his thumb and said, "Concubine Qi intends to marry the daughter of the Rong Wangfu for the third prince, what do you think?" ”

Xie Yu's thin lips were rarely bloody, and he said lightly: "Concubine Qi is thoughtful and far-sighted, and she is all for the three princes, so it is not surprising that she has this request." ”

Emperor Jin Yuan raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "She was worried that I would refuse, but she first took the second princess and the concubine Shu to make a raft." What do you say they want? ”

"Xie Yu didn't dare to say anything." Xie Yudao.

Emperor Jin Yuan paused, turned his head to look at Xie Yu, and chuckled to himself: "I didn't know that you would still say these unpleasant words to deal with, but you are getting more and more tactful." ”

Xie Yu bowed his head slightly: "Your Majesty wants to hear what Xie Yu says?" ”

Emperor Jin Yuan's eyes sank: "Tell the truth." ”

Xie Yu raised his head faintly and said: "The two princes have grown up, Your Majesty has never shown the intention of establishing a prince, others can only happen to attack sideways, observe words and looks, the three princes are competing to be strong in everything, and they want to get Your Majesty's attention, but they are also for the Son of Man who wants to get the approval of His Majesty as a father." ”

"But Your Majesty never shows the dew, and the birth of the emperor's eldest grandson, Qi Guifei is afraid that she is a little anxious."

Emperor Jin Yuan turned his hand with his fingers: "Before you were punished for the third prince, I thought you would hide your selfishness, and you still don't want to talk or don't leak." ”

In my mind, I suddenly remembered what Yin Fuzi said to him.

Suddenly, he asked Xie Yu: "You have been by my side for many years, what do you want?" ”

Xie Yu pursed his thin lips and was silent for a long time, and just as he was about to speak, Emperor Jin Yuan suddenly spoke: "If you can't say it, it's okay, I promised you all about this matter, and you must be your Yuan descendant even more well." ”

Emperor Jin Yuan stepped on the steps, put one hand behind his back and asked, "What is the movement over there in Jingwuxuan?" ”

Xie Yu bowed slightly: "Someone from Jingwuxuan said that the princess has been closed in the palace for the past few days, not allowing the palace maids to approach, and the meals are all used for a day." ”

Emperor Jin Yuan sneered: "She is the smartest, and she knows that if she wants to make trouble with me, she has to save her strength." After a few days, the ban was lifted and she was released, telling her that if she continued to make trouble, I would not relent. ”

Xie Yu nodded lightly, and then asked Emperor Jin Yuan: "Why is Your Majesty unwilling to agree to the princess's request?" ”

Emperor Jin Yuan's mouth lifted, revealing a trace of depth, and his walking steps sank slightly: "You don't understand, as a princess of a country, I indulged her too much and made her forget her duties." ”

Just after the twentieth, the autumn test list was released, and the front of the test list was crowded with students, trying to see if there was their name on the list.

Rong Fengben was also detained by Mrs. Rong and was not allowed to go out again, but fortunately, Meng Yiling came to accompany her, and the two waited for news together.

Bihua ran in panting, panting heavily, and sweating on her forehead, but Yunxiao poured two sips of water before saying, "Exam, admitted." The next person who went to see the trial list in front met Uncle Pei, saying that it was the thirty-first on the first list, but the young man Yin was sixty-first on the first list behind Uncle Pei. ”

Meng Yiling was first overjoyed, and then surprised: "Yin Xiaogongzi's talent is abnormal, I thought he would win the champion in one fell swoop like Master Yin, and his name will move Shengjing." However, it is indeed not easy for him to get sixty-one on the first list at his age, and you must know how many people can only be a show talent after taking the exam for a lifetime. ”

Rong Feng lowered his head and sat on the big kang by the window, holding the embroidery needle in his hand and falling down one by one, his eyebrows and eyes were a little relieved: "The reputation of the young man is not a good thing for the young man, and now that the Yin family is in danger, he is not easy to attract too much attention." ”

Meng Yiling looked back at Rong Feng, her eyebrows moved, and she said softly: "You mean that Yin Xiaogongzi intends to restrain his edge?" ”

Rong Feng made a movement in his hand, raised his eyes faintly, and pouted with a faint smile: "Who knows?" I'm just going to say it casually, but my cousin has gained fame, and my sister's good things are near. ”

Meng Yiling's face turned red and glared at Rong Feng, but her heart was extremely happy.

A few days later, the holy decree was issued to Rong Wangfu to elect Rong Han as the third prince Xiao Jizheng concubine, Rong Han knelt on the ground, her eyes were full of clear meaning and there was no trace of surprise and surprise, she raised her hands and took the holy decree: "The courtiers receive the decree, long live my emperor, long live long live." ”

Her expression was steady, and her hand holding the decree slowly clenched.

The eunuch who came to announce the decree had a shrill voice, and said with a smile on his face with white fat powder: "The concubine Niangniang means that the big wedding will be held after the six girls and the concubine." The miscellaneous family will return to the palace to reinstate the decree, so I won't say much to the prince. ”

Shou Antang.

Rong Feng sat below, holding a rattle in his hand and facing Yun Xiao's distant brother in his arms, the child is now nearly two months old, and he is very strong, and he can hear the sound and stare hard with his legs, if it weren't for Yun Xiao's strength, he wouldn't be able to hold him.

Her expression was indifferent, but she listened to the Qi family and Mrs. Rong discussing the matter of Rong Han and Ji.

Old Madam Rong raised her eyelids and said, "Haven't this matter been prepared for a long time, why is there any problem?" ”

Qi's face changed slightly, and she couldn't help rubbing the silk handkerchief in her hand, she knew that everything had been prepared a long time ago, but her Han'er was now the third prince and concubine, and she might be the queen of the Jin Dynasty in the future.

She wanted her Han'er to be able to raise her eyebrows.

How could Old Madam Rong not understand Qi's thoughts, and sneered in her heart: "Han'er and Ji have already been issued according to the rules of the princess of the palace, how do you, as a mother, want to do it for her?" ”

Qi remembered that the hot-eyed scene when Rong Feng was in Qingzhou and Ji would not be comparable at all if it was just operated according to the rules of the princess of the palace, she gritted her teeth, looked at the old lady Rong carefully, and said: "When the county lord was in charge of the county, it was so lively. ”

Old Madam Rong snorted coldly: "You, a mother, are thinking about her. The teacup in his hand slammed on the tea table.

She leaned on the soft pillow behind her: "At the beginning, the four girls and the Ji also went according to the rules of the house, and at that time, the title of the prince was only Hou Zhaoli, but now Han'er's share is much thicker than them." ”

How could Qi believe it, bowed his head and was silent.

But I heard Mrs. Rong say again: "At that time, it was the old lady of the Pei family in Puzhou who sent a letter, saying that she wanted to make the gift of the four girls thicker, and let people send a lot of money. ”

Qi's body stiffened, and the corners of her mouth were pulled, how could she forget the Pei family?

"The granddaughter thinks that what the side concubine said is very true, the sixth sister will be the third prince and concubine in the future, and the gift of the Ji is too simple, it is inevitable to teach people to think more." Rong Feng gently shook the rattle, and the sound of knocking on the drum surface seemed to fall on Qi's heart, and Qi couldn't help but have his heart contract.

"When I went to Puzhou before, my grandfather gave my granddaughter some shops in Shengjing, so why don't my granddaughter take out 30% of the profits from them to add to the sixth sister and Ji's share." Rong Feng said that it is light and simple.

Qi's face turned blue and white for a while, and his soft voice was slightly cold: "How can you teach the county lord to pay." ”

Rong Feng tilted his head and smiled a little strangely: "It's not that the side concubine thinks that the sixth sister and the gift of the Ji are not enough scenes, Feng'er is just doing her best." Don't think too much about the side concubine. ”

Old Madam Rong glanced at Qi Shi coldly, and then sighed slightly and felt that Qi Shi was a little pitiful, so she said: "If you want to be thicker, then you can make another one yourself, I, as a grandmother, is not easy to treat, and the four girls are prepared as a gift for the sister-in-law." ”
