Chapter 37, two different things

Li Ji didn't object to giving Yan Yan the title of county lord, but he really didn't approve of Yan Yan going to make peace, but he didn't say it very well.

It turned out that Li Ji was also fourteen years old when Yan Yan was married, and he really liked this cousin who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, but he also knew one thing that he was the prince, the only son in the middle palace, and he would be the prince in the future, Yan Yan was an orphan without a father or mother, so it was impossible for him to persuade the queen mother and the queen mother to marry Yan Yan to him.

Another point is that in order to prevent foreign relatives from getting big, the princes' relatives are generally selected from the daughters of those third- and fourth-grade officials, and they never choose their wives in these families.

In this way, it makes no sense that the status of these noble ladies of the family after entering the palace is lower than that of the daughters of these third- and fourth-grade officials, therefore, these noble ladies of the family usually marry each other and do not marry into the palace, so the palace has to select some beautiful women from some lower-grade officials or people to enrich the harem.

For example, when the Empress Dowager Yun entered the palace, her father was only a six-rank official from other provinces before she entered the palace, and she was just a little Jieyu when she entered the palace, but she quickly won the favor of the emperor Li Wei at that time with her excellent appearance, and became a man in one fell swoop, giving birth to Li Wei's first son, that is, Li Cong, and the Yun family was soon promoted to three levels and promoted to Concubine Li.

It's okay to say luck, it's good to say bad luck, Li Cong was just two years old, the queen died because of dystocia, and there was no child in the middle palace, but at this time the emperor was also infected with typhoid fever and fell ill, on his deathbed, Li Wei decreed that the emperor's eldest son Li Cong was the crown prince, and Yun's mother was promoted to the queen again by virtue of her son, and half a month later, she became the queen mother.

In order to consolidate her own power, and at the same time to maintain her son's imperial power, she was smart enough to marry her sister to the prince of Dingnan, that is, Yan Yan's grandfather Yan Chang.

With the full support of the Yan family, the Yun family quickly secured the position of the queen mother, and after Yan Yan's grandmother married Yan Chang, she also quickly gave birth to a son, that is, Yan Yan's father Yan Rui, after the age of five, Yan Rui entered the palace to be Li Cong's companion, and later, he dedicated his young life to the Li family's Jiangshan Sheji.

It was precisely because of these intricate relationships that Li Ji had a trace of illusion back then, hoping that the Queen Mother would agree to marry Yan Yan to him in the dedication of the Yan family, but because he was really young at that time and had not yet reached the age of binding his hair, he couldn't say these words, so he had to tactfully propose to the Queen Mother that he would delay for a few years before marrying Yan Yan.

But Yan Yan's grandmother was seriously ill, and her old man's wish before her death was to see her beloved eldest granddaughter settle down, so that she could also give an explanation to her son and daughter-in-law under Jiuquan, so the Queen Mother rejected Li Ji's request, and after some careful selection, Lu Ming was decided.

Although he did this relatively vaguely back then, who are the Queen Mother and the Emperor and Empress?

So, for fear of affecting Yan Yan, Li Ji also took the initiative to distance himself from Yan Yan after that.

Two years later, his family affairs were also decided, he was the daughter of a third-grade member in the capital, and now his son is half a year old.

But who knew that just when he let go of Yan Yan and wanted to be a good husband and father wholeheartedly, Yan Yan's family affairs went wrong, and Li Ji's heart rippled again.

But it was only Lian Yi, because he knew one thing that Yan Yan was once the eldest granddaughter of the Dingnan Hou Mansion, it was impossible for her to come to him as a side concubine.

But even so, he didn't want her to kiss him.

Even if he can't marry her, he hopes to see her from time to time and know her condition at any time, because now he has the ability to protect her and give her a stable and prosperous life.

And harmony means that Yan Yan has completely broken away from his wings since then, and it also means that she will die alone in a foreign country where she is not familiar with life, no, loneliness is certain, but the end of life may not be, because those princesses and county lords who are close to each other rarely have a long life, and the reason for the period can be guessed without asking.

Therefore, Li Ji absolutely did not want Yan Yan to take this path.

"Father, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right? My aunt and grandmother entrusted her to the imperial grandmother and you back then, hoping that we could shelter her and give her a stable life, but now that this kind of thing has happened, Sister Yan'er doesn't even have the courage to live, we don't say that we stand up for her to shelter her from the wind and rain, but force her to kiss, what is the difference between this and the Lu family? ”

"Presumptuous, what's wrong with being kind, the identity of the county lord can't be expected by many people, and the last time he married him was a concubine, and he couldn't enjoy the glory and wealth, not better than the dumb man she married to the Lu family?" Li Cong was angry, on the one hand, he was told that he was in his heart, and on the other hand, he guessed his son's mind.

"What dumb man to marry? Didn't you say that you were a monk? "Li Jimeng.

Seeing this, Li Cong suddenly remembered that his son had just come back, but he was afraid that he still didn't know the details of this matter, so he told him about the cause and effect, because he also wanted to hear his son's opinion.

He doesn't have to ask Yan Yan to marry the Lu family, he also doesn't like the Lu family's domineering and calculating, after all, no matter how you say it, this family affair is determined by him and the Queen Mother, and the Lu family is equivalent to slapping him and the Queen Mother in the face by doing this.

In this way, he agreed to Yan Yan's conditions and asked Mrs. Lu to apologize to Yan Yan in public and admit her mistake.

But the Lu family is not an ordinary family after all, it was the founding general of the year, and the generations of descendants who have followed have also made outstanding achievements, otherwise, Lu Duan would not dare to put forward conditions to him.

Therefore, how to deal with this matter, he wants to hear Li Ji's opinion, after all, Li Ji is the crown prince, and he has followed him to listen to the government since he was fifteen years old, and he should also learn to deal with some government affairs.

"Father, that Lu Youerchen has seen it once, it seems that one year we had a gathering at the Lu family, I don't know how to talk about the Lu family's book collection, Lu Ming took us to his family's library, and saw a man of the same age as us painting, but he ran away in a panic as soon as he saw us, Erchen paid attention to his paintings, to be honest, very aura, no worse than Lu Ming's skills." Li Ji recalled.

"But the problem is that the girl doesn't look down on the mute." After Li Cong finished speaking, Yan Yan asked Mrs. Lu to apologize in public and admit her mistake.

Li Ji also heard Yan Yan say this, so he checked it slightly, "Father, Erchen thinks that what Sister Yan'er said is right, this matter is wrong with the Lu family, why should my sister suffer this humiliation in vain?" As for the Lu family's proposal to marry, Erchen thinks that it is two different things, if my sister wants to marry the Lu family, she must also marry innocently, otherwise, how will she gain a foothold in these families in the future? ”

Compared with his relatives, he would rather let Yan Yan marry Lu You, although Lu You can't speak, but he can write and paint, and there should be no big problem in living, as for the rest, the way he will have in the future is to make up for Yan Yan.
