Chapter 331: Do you want to fight or kiss?
It's March and the city is not yet green, but it's only a matter of time before the spring breeze warms up, and the plants and trees bud.
Shen Xiaoyu was in the account room and the account clerk to calculate the income and expenses of this month, lamenting that the prices in Kyoto City seem to be more expensive recently, and I don't know that firewood and rice are expensive.
I went to the back kitchen and found Uncle Hu, and said: "The price of meat is expensive these days, just subtract one meat dish from our table, and people's meals are still the same." "On weekdays, it is two meats, three vegetables with one soup, and now it is enough to become one meat, three vegetables with one soup.
Uncle Hu said: "There is swine fever in the south, so the price of meat here will be more expensive, but if you want to eat meat, our family can eat it casually." "Shen Xiaoyu is wealthy, not to mention two meat and three meats, he can afford to eat a pig at one meal!
Shen Xiaoyu was speechless: "Be prepared for danger in times of peace, it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift!" "The habits at home should be maintained forever.
Qin Huaijin came back in the evening, followed by some, when Qin Huaijin was at the gate, he finally persuaded everyone to leave, Shen Xiaoyu saw this battle, and quickly asked Chai Xia to close the door.
"What's wrong? Who are they? Shen Xiaoyu asked, listening to the movement outside the door, is it that the person has not left yet.
Qin Huaijin pulled Shen Xiaoyu back to the house first, and then said: "Civil official, because of the Imperial Historical Observatory, many civil officials now think that I am a character, so I ......"
Shen Xiaoyu understood, and it was estimated that he was stammering again, but this time he came a little fiercer.
Shen Xiaoyu went to ask the red jujube to call Chai Xia, and as soon as Chai Xia came, Shen Xiaoyu instructed: "Now that you are the concierge, no matter who comes to give gifts in the future, don't accept it, just politely ask to leave." ”
"Yes!" Chai Xia responded, such a high-ranking family is also very particular, but he used to always watch people receive gifts, like Shen Xiaoyu specially instructed not to accept gifts, and he also saw it for the first time.
The next few days were much more comfortable, there were no big or small things, and the whole city of Kyoto was shrouded in a peaceful atmosphere, even in the court, everyone was not so angry, and it was very harmonious.
Yushitai used to use too much force because of the "brick shooting", all of them had hoarse throats in the past few days, and they were almost unable to speak, and everyone stopped talking more.
It wasn't until the news of King Yong's entry into Beijing came that Kyoto Castle finally returned to its bustling scene.
As soon as Shen Xiaoyu heard that King Yong was going to enter Beijing, he remembered, isn't this the one who abducted all the iron mines in Fengshan!
"Why did King Yong enter Beijing?" Shen Xiaoyu asked, all the princes who have been rewarded are not allowed to enter Beijing at will.
Qin Huaijin explained: "It was summoned to Beijing by the emperor, and the emperor wants to give marriage to the prince of Yongwang. ”
"Oh, but does the prince who is so far away still want the emperor to give him a marriage?" Shen Xiaoyu wondered if the emperor was a little more lenient.
Qin Huaijin paused and said, "The emperor intends to make peace with Beidi, so he chose someone from the royal family of the clan to choose." ”
"What? You say and pro? Didn't you say you were going to fight Beidi? What kind of family is it? "Shen Xiaoyu has been blinded, what kind of road is this, is it a fight, or a kiss?
Qin Huaijin sighed, the sacred heart is unpredictable, for the sake of the country, some things are also a last resort, as soon as the winter passes, Beidi begins to be active again, but the emperor's Dawan horse has not yet grown into the prime of life, and now it also needs some time.
Harmony with Beidi is a delaying tactic, and the emperor just doesn't have a prince of the right age, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen someone from among his relatives.
Shen Xiaoyu thought about it, so he asked, "Doesn't the Emperor Taishang also have a prince of the right age?" Even if you are close, you won't be looking for a family member who is separated by generations, right? "The prince of Yongwang is a cousin, and the prince of the Emperor Taishang is a brother, and it can still be seen who is close and who is far.
Qin Huaijin smiled: "It's not good to push out and kiss my brother, the emperor is still there." What's more, King Yong should also want to take this opportunity to be active in the capital again, otherwise he would find an excuse to prevaricate. "Although it is not a good thing to be close, it is still an opportunity to return to Beijing.
Shen Xiaoyu felt that things were a little complicated, so he didn't delve into them, who married whom in the royal family and who married whom had nothing to do with them.
A few days later, the battle of Yongwangfu entered the palace, and Shen Xiaoyu was on the way to the shop, so he watched the convoy go to the palace gate.
As soon as the breeze blew, the curtain of the carriage floated, and Shen Xiaoyu saw the situation in the carriage. Although the people inside were dressed as men, Shen Xiaoyu was also wearing men's clothes, and almost at a glance he could see that it was a man dressed as a girl.
Shen Xiaoyu didn't care much, he went to the shop first, and when he went home at noon, Qin Huaijin was also there, and Shen Xiaoyu was surprised: "It's rare to see you come back at noon, just to have a meal." ”
Qin Huaijin said with a smile: "The emperor wants to catch the wind for King Yong, and a banquet will be held in the palace, so I will pick you up." ”
"I'm going too?" Shen Xiaoyu asked, the royal family has nothing to do with outsiders like them.
"Go, officials and family members above the fifth grade will go." Qin Huaijin said: "It can be regarded as the emperor's permission for King Yong to be active in Kyoto City in the future." ”
Shen Xiaoyu went to change into court clothes, and then followed Qin Huaijin to the palace gate, many people were already entering the palace one after another, Su Ning and Lu Butterfly were also there, Shen Xiaoyu said hello and took a seat first, and then looked at the people in the Yongwang Mansion in the front row.
King Yong's appearance is really similar to that of the Emperor Taishang, and he is more wealthy, looking at his eyebrows and kindness. But when she looked at the person next to her, she was stunned, it was the person in the carriage she saw.
"...... that?" Shen Xiaoyu asked in a low voice.
Qin Huaijin followed his gaze, and then said, "Prince Yongwang, Su Gang." ”
Shen Xiaoyu was really a little blind, what was the situation, but he still added to ask: "Are you sure that Beidi has a princess to marry?" And not the prince? ”
"It's the princess." Qin Huaijin said with certainty, but looking at Shen Xiaoyu's appearance, something seemed to be wrong, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?" Why does it seem weird? ”
Shen Xiaoyu shook his head: "It's not that I'm weird, it's that this thing is too weird!" After finishing speaking, he looked around, and after finding that no one was paying attention to them, he whispered in Qin Huaijin's ear and said, "The Su Gang you said is a daughter......
Qin Huaijin thought that Shen Xiaoyu was laughing: "His Royal Highness the Prince is indeed a little red and white-toothed, after all, he is not very old, and it is normal to look at some oily noodles!" ”
Shen Xiaoyu shook his head heavily, looked at Qin Huaijin very sincerely, and said, "Look at my expression, do I look like I'm joking?" ”
Qin Huaijin looked at Shen Xiaoyu's appearance, and finally realized the seriousness of the matter.
If Su Gang is really a woman, how to get along with Beidi? When it comes to national affairs, nothing is trivial!
Qin Huaijin was about to get up, but was quickly pulled back by Shen Xiaoyu: "Why are you going?" ”
"Before the banquet starts, hurry up and stop this, the matter has not been made public, it is not a big deal!" Qin Huaijin said, if you wait for the emperor to make a public decree, there will be no room for recovery, and it will not be good for anyone!
Shen Xiaoyu asked, "If you go rashly like this, you won't get into trouble, right?" "Tell the prince of Yongwang that he is not a prince but a daughter, and he will not be hated by King Yong, right?
"I can't take care of it at this time!" Qin Huaijin said, peace is about war, and such an act as Yongwangfu is a big crime!
Qin Huaijin went directly to the imperial study, the banquet time had not yet arrived, and the emperor was still in the imperial study, which was just right to talk about things.
Zhao Xinyu reported that Qin Huaijin was coming, and the emperor directly let people in, Qin Huaijin said directly: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to report." ”
"Let's just say it." The emperor accepted the recital, and it was time to go to the banquet hall.
Qin Huaijin said: "The son of Yongwang is a woman. ”
"The Prince of the Eternal King...... Is it a woman? The emperor was also stunned, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and after reacting, he asked, "How do you know?" ”
"What the insiders say." Qin Huaijin said.
The emperor almost didn't stand firm, so he said: "Chaoyang can see it? Isn't that mistaken? And you believed? ”
"Insiders can't be mistaken." Qin Huaijin said: "Earlier, she also dressed as a man, and she could see it at a glance. ”
The emperor was a little anxious, so he said: "But I haven't heard that King Yong has a daughter, and there is only one son!" "How did this happen?
Qin Huaijin said: "Don't say anything about the emperor's desire to give marriage and kiss for the time being, and wait until the identity is confirmed before making plans." ”
The emperor nodded, Qin Huaijin's proposal is really important, otherwise he would have announced it directly at the banquet in a while, and at this time, it would be a big joke, but what does this Yongwang think? !
Qin Huaijin said what should be said, so he hurried back first, this matter can't be done, and what to do after the banquet is the main thing.
As soon as Qin Huaijin sat down, Shen Xiaoyu said, "What did the emperor say?" ”
"Stabilize it first, then talk about it." Qin Huaijin said: "I'm afraid that this can't be reconciled." "King Yong's use of a woman to pretend to be the prince is already a crime of deception.
Shen Xiaoyu sighed: "Fortunately, it was stopped before things deteriorated." "I really said that on the day I married Princess Beidi, the paper would definitely not be able to keep the fire, and Beidi would definitely blow up the temple at that time!
A palace Yan, everyone else was happy, but the emperor's face was not very good, and he didn't say what he was going to announce at the banquet, which made King Yong a little worried.
As soon as Gong Yan was over, the emperor asked Zhao Xin to come over and call Qin Huaijin away, Qin Huaijin asked Shen Xiaoyu to go home first, he estimated that he would have to delay here for a while.
When I arrived at the imperial study, King Yong and King Yong's "son" were all there, and Qin Huaijin saw that everything that should be there was there.
The emperor raised his forehead and asked King Yong: "Uncle Wang, let's talk about what is going on in this world!" ”
When Su Gang heard this, he quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at the emperor again, a series of performances are already very revealing, too empty-hearted!
King Yong looked at Su Gang and said, "The emperor knows?" ”
The emperor really wanted to suffocate, so he said: "Uncle Wang, you better explain, can this kind of thing be such a child's play?" I don't have to say anything about the crime of bullying the king, but how important is the matter of being close to each other, how can Uncle Wang be so nonsense! ”
